Chapter 255: The Medicine Doll Lingling
“By the way, I see we’re surrounded by the sea, and nearby islands should be quite far. How did you get here?” Zhanyue was puzzled. Apart from the pirate ships with flags, he didn’t see any other boats nearby. With Baizhi’s suppressed abilities, she shouldn’t have been able to cross long distances at sea.
“You might not believe it, but I’ve been crossing the sea on a bamboo raft all this time. Unfortunately, they destroyed that raft earlier,” Baizhi said angrily. That bamboo raft was handmade by her and had accompanied her across many seas and places.
“Bamboo… raft?” Zhanyue indeed didn’t believe it. With the waves at sea, how long could a small bamboo raft last?
Seeing Zhanyue’s disbelief, Baizhi was very proud. She put her hands on her hips and said happily, “Let me show you something.”
Not having seen her for a long time, Zhanyue felt that this girl was becoming more and more adorable. Unlike Huang Xueqing and Yunyao, Zhanyue felt particularly relaxed around Baizhi. Although they hadn’t taken the final step in their relationship, by this world’s standards, Baizhi had long considered herself Zhanyue’s person.
“Look at this,” Baizhi extended her hand. In her palm was a green gourd-shaped mark that was glowing.
“What’s this?” Zhanyue asked curiously. He didn’t remember Baizhi having this before.
“Just keep watching,” Baizhi activated the symbol in her palm. The mark burst with light, and then a fist-sized little person appeared in her palm. It was a porcelain-like doll that looked seven or eight parts similar to Baizhi, but more childish. Its watery eyes were adorable, though it looked a bit dim-witted.
“What is this thing? Why does it look not very smart?” Zhanyue asked. It looked very similar to the legendary Nascent Soul, except it had a small belly-covering garment.
