Xiao Chen followed Luo Ling back to her apartment, which was a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment near the school. When they reached the door of the room, Luo Ling said, "I'll show you something."
She took her key ring out of her bag and placed it in the palm of her hand. Then the key ring actually floated up by itself. One of the keys lifted up by itself, slowly floated to the door, and was inserted into the keyhole.
The key turned more than a circle and the door opened by itself.
"Divine thoughts can affect objects!" Xiao Chen was shocked. Luo Ling in this world actually cultivated her spiritual power to an intermediate level during the time when she had no magic power.
"That's not all." She took off her coat and threw it into the air. The coat, bag and keys each flew to their respective destinations.
"You have actually begun to practice the secret method of dividing the secrets."
"It's not that fast, is it? It's slower than your progress in that world." Luo Ling said this, but she couldn't hide the pride in her tone.
Luo Ling's house was decorated in a simple style, basically a set of solid wood furniture in a well-decorated house. Xiao Chen didn't see too many personalized things, it seemed that the owner didn't put too much thought into taking care of the room.
Luo Ling put away her things, arranged for Xiao Chen to sit on the sofa in the living room, and asked, "What would you like to drink?"
"Coffee, please. I don't want to fall asleep again so soon." Xiao Chen said.
"Then let's have something stronger. I have Roma and Arpeggio. Which one would you like?"
"I don't understand this. You can figure it out." Xiao Chen looked at the furnishings in the room. The most common items were souvenirs from travel. "By the way, how many days have passed since I last came here?"
"Less than three months." Luo Ling picked up a capsule, put it into the coffee machine, and came back with two cups of coffee.
Xiao Chen calculated his own timeline and said, "That's basically not a few days off. It seems that the flow of time on both sides is basically the same, but why is it that the last time I was here for a long time, only a short while had passed when I woke up?"
Luo Ling put the coffee on the coffee table in front of the sofa and said, "Maybe the time points of the two worlds are not one-to-one corresponding. Maybe it will take you longer to go back this time."
"Well, forget about that for now. Tell me how you were able to cultivate to this level. There is no magic here, so cultivating is twice as effective with half the effort."
"It's nothing. There is no magic in this world, but people still have spiritual power. So it's like in a water-scarce desert. People can't swim, but that doesn't mean they can't learn. No one has ever specifically studied swimming methods in the desert, but one day a person who lives by the river comes over and at least teaches them the most basic movements." Luo Ling made an analogy and Xiao Chen nodded in agreement.
"Even if there is no magic to use, cultivating this level of mental power is already very powerful and very useful, isn't it?" Luo Ling asked back, "I use it every day, which is the same as practicing spells."
"That's right, you are now the telekinetic superpower in the story."
"Actually, I didn't practice alone. I practiced with him."
"You told me about this?" Xiao Chen took a sip of coffee, and the bitter taste made him frown slightly.
"Of course, when you come here, you will occupy his body. You must tell him these things, otherwise he will think he has amnesia. He was skeptical about such a fantastic thing, until I showed a little bit of the effect of mental power, and then he really believed what I said. Don't you understand your temper? If there is really such a supernatural thing, how can you not be tempted? You will definitely come to learn it, right?" Luo Ling smiled mischievously, "This way I can save a lot of trouble. Who can care about yourself more than you? Besides, if we want to build a platform to collect and develop various suggestions about your world, he is an old hand and much more efficient than me."
"It's a pity that I don't know why, as soon as I appeared here, he disappeared. Otherwise, we could have a good chat." Xiao Chen said with some regret.
"I don't think he disappeared, but was suppressed by you. Your soul is much stronger than his, and his consciousness cannot show up with you around. But he wrote many of his thoughts in a notebook and left it with me, so that whenever you show up, you can look at this notebook, and you can write down any thoughts you have in it so that he can read them."
Luo Ling handed Xiao Chen a notebook that she had prepared long ago.
Xiao Chen flipped it open and saw that it was indeed his own handwriting.
He carefully divided things into many aspects such as system, economy, population and technology. Whenever he had an idea, he would leave notes under the corresponding topic.
Xiao Chen casually flipped open a page, which read: ... The productivity and transportation capacity of medieval society were extremely limited, which would inevitably lead to a bottleneck in the scale of trade. This bottleneck would mainly be caused by the size of the consumer market and the trade deficit of the local country. If we cannot conquer enough land in time, carry out industrialization, and increase the purchasing power of the local population to form a domestic market, this way of establishing a country through foreign trade will be difficult to continue to develop. ... A healthy world economic system must be developed jointly by upstream and downstream countries. If other countries cannot develop synchronously and have good military power, then the school will eventually fall into war with other countries because of economic colonization.
Turn the page again:
… Population is the cornerstone of a country, and it must be expanded quickly. The combination of time travelers and local people can not only speed up the population reproduction, but also quickly improve the quality of the population. Time travelers should be encouraged to marry and have children early. Allowing time travelers to have polygamy may be a good idea…
"Isn't that in line with your idea?"
Xiao Chen grinned. "Some are the same, and some are very different. For example, I don't support polygamy. This will exacerbate local inequality and go against our original intention of changing that world. Moreover, I don't like to artificially divide long-term policies into two standards for time travelers and locals. This is not good for our plan to integrate with the locals. But his views have indeed broadened my thinking. After all, sometimes there is indeed a problem of being in the same mountain. As a bystander, he may see it more clearly."
"Not only him, I have also identified some other scholars among my friends. When the time comes, I will invite them to join this project in the form of a thinking game to discuss your situation." Luo Ling said.
"Great, let me first tell you about my recent situation..."
When Xiao Chen and Luo Ling finished talking about these things, it was already dawn. Xiao Chen felt an irresistible drowsiness coming over him. This kind of fatigue was very different from usual, giving people an irresistible feeling.
Xiao Chen tried his best to stay alert and said to Luo Ling: "It seems I have to go back."
"When you come next time, the discussion group and forum should have been set up."
Xiao Chen yawned and said, "I know, thank you. Thank you! I..."
He wanted to say something else, but his head drooped and he began to snore.
