Volume 1 Chapter 38 Intention

  I lay down obediently, my eyes wide open: "Mò, what to do? I'm not sleepy at all now. Why don't you tell me more about the hairpin's magical powers?" Too excited to sleep.

  He stroked his silver hair, sighed lightly and said, "I really can't do anything about you! This wonderful use is also hard to explain for the time being. However, I can tell you that it can be your life helper, such as solving your bathing problem." Mo's face turned a bit red. I got excited: "What, solve the bath? Then what should I do? Using a bathtub is really uncomfortable." I looked at him expectantly, Mo was a bit embarrassed, muttering to himself: "Uh, shouldn't have said that." I urged: "Mo, come on, how to solve it?"

  "Same method." Mu said weakly, "Haven't you noticed? Your hair?" Hair? I casually grabbed a handful of my hair and sniffed it: "Smells so good. No wonder Mu always asks me what shampoo I use, turns out it's lily fragrance. Right?" "You can try washing your hair with intention." "What? Washing hair with intention? Can you also take a bath like that?" I was stunned, "Is this the solution you were talking about? Can it be the same as real thing?" I doubted. "Try it and you'll know." Mu smiled lightly. "Then I'll try taking a bath!" I teased him on purpose. "I'm leaving, go ahead and try." Mu fled in disarray. I chuckled quietly. Holding the hair clip on my head, I whispered: "Thanks, Mu, you're my most important family member. Can't repay you this life, but next life then!"

  "Well, I'll try mental shampooing then. If it works, I won't have to worry about washing up at school anymore." I thought to myself, since it's just a thought, it shouldn't get the bed sheets wet. I placed my hands on my hair tie, closed my eyes and thought: "I want to wash my hair, I want to wash it beautifully." Suddenly, I felt my hair floating up, with water rinsing through it. Feeling about done...

  I opened my eyes and quickly checked my hair, wow, it's so smooth and fragrant. I gently flipped it, and the strands fluttered, I can totally be a model for a hair commercial now! Hehe, this solves my big problem, what a thoughtful magical object. I wonder what taking a bath feels like? Just now, washing in the basin was not satisfying at all, let me try again. Close my eyes, rub and scrub, silently chanting: take a bath, beautifully take a bath. Unlike washing my hair just now, I found myself in it, is this a hot spring? What a huge hot spring, misty vapor everywhere, like a paradise. Ah, this must be the perfect place for foam, of course, it's a paradise! I swam freely and happily in the water, really didn't want to get out.

  However, to verify the results of the experiment, I couldn't indulge in playfulness. So I made a great effort to open my eyes wide, and indeed, I was still in the room, still on the bed, it was just an illusion! A whiff of lily fragrance wafted up from my body, what a magical illusion! My heart felt so beautiful that it was bubbling over!

  It's getting late, if I don't sleep soon it will be daylight. Hurry up and close my eyes to sleep. Soon fell fast asleep. A night without dreams, woke up in the morning feeling refreshed and invigorated, unknowingly I seemed to have gotten rid of my habit of sleeping in. Mom just got out of bed and was busy in the kitchen. I quietly came to the front yard, wanting to try if I had mastered the art of walking freely.

  In the courtyard, I quietly jumped up, my body floating in mid-air, and quickly fell back down. Something didn't feel right, so I concentrated my mind and tried again. I wanted to jump onto the rooftop and slowly float back down. Sure enough, my body became light and agile, and with a casual leap, I landed on the rooftop.

  Wow! The view is much broader now, the morning star on the horizon is still twinkling, and the village is quiet. Only a few households have opened their doors, they should be families with children going to school like us. I remember that in our generation, there were only five or six boys in the village who went to school, and girls were just me and Qiu Wei. In fact, there should be some girls of the same age, but they stopped after primary school. Alas, it's really too biased towards boys and against girls. Fortunately, my parents are not that kind of people.

  You were just dreaming, hurry up and come down. With a gentle flutter, you're already down. It's so fulfilling! Little Cloud, are you up yet? Mom is calling. At the thought of it, I flashed to the kitchen door in an instant. Mom had already prepared food. I quickly washed up. "Little Cloud, how's your foot? If it still hurts, take a rest today!" I walked a few steps and said, "Hey, nothing's wrong. It doesn't hurt at all anymore." Mom said strangely, "That's great. But you've really changed a lot!" I was taken aback, had Mom discovered something? "Originally, when I called you to get up, it wasn't so fast. You used to linger in bed for half a day before slowly getting up. It's not like now, where you come as soon as you're called." Mom smiled with relief.

  "Is that okay?" I asked with a mischievous grin. "Of course, it's fine!" My mom lovingly tapped me on the head: "What are you talking about, kid? Hurry up and eat! Everything you need to bring is in the main room, I'll send someone to deliver it for you later." I nodded and started eating my breakfast - scrambled eggs and noodles, which was the best breakfast at this time.

  Just after eating, Qiao Wei arrived, carrying two bags. As soon as she entered the door, she asked: "Yun'er, is your foot better?" I stretched out my foot and kicked it: "Nothing's wrong, it's all healed!" We came to the main room (also known as the living room) together, took a look at the things Mom helped me pack up, oh, there really are a lot! There were three big bags, one big bag was filled with clothes that my classmates had altered for me, one was filled with my spare clothes, and the other was this week's rice and vegetables. No wonder Mom said she wanted to send them to me.

  But now these things shouldn't be a problem for me, right? After all, I'm also a Jianghu girl with lightness skills, hehe. I slung one bag on my back and held one in each hand, oh dear! It's so heavy! I took a stumble and almost fell over.

  "Hey, you really dare to try! We're both small-sized, let's not show off." I furrowed my brow in thought, why couldn't I lift it? Those female heroes in martial arts movies weren't that strong, were they? And I had just tried it out, I could do lightness skills too! Oh right, I only learned lightness skills last night, but didn't learn internal or external skills, so of course I wouldn't have much strength. After figuring it out, I let out a long sigh and said, "I'll practice one type of skill per week, then next week I'll come back to practice internal power, so I won't be so weak and can't even lift anything." Mom finished packing and came over saying, "Let's go, I'll send you off. It's still early, and it's not safe for girls to walk around." Mom was carrying two big bags, and also took one of Qiao Wei's bags to carry on her back, so now both Qiao Wei and I only had one bag each. We were relieved, but mom was carrying so much, my nose felt sour and I made a vow in my heart to learn even higher-level martial arts, so my family wouldn't have to work so hard.
