New Residence

Yun Jingheng leaned back on the stool, quietly looking at the formula.

The Douluo Plane has air, water, minerals, life, and material forms.

Therefore, there must be a periodic table of elements, and the place where uranium ore is most likely to be found is underground.

The key question is, how do I get underground? And how do I pinpoint the exact location of the uranium mine?

He stared at the formulas on the table for a long time, his fingers tapping lightly on his knees.

Uranium ore... Uranium ore decays naturally, releasing three types of particles during decay: alpha particles, beta particles, and gamma rays.

Alpha particles have weak penetrating power; a sheet of paper can block them.

Beta particles have stronger penetrating power, but metal plates can still block them.

Gamma rays have extremely strong penetrating power, requiring a very thick layer of lead to block them.

The problem is, he can't possibly carry lead plates all over the world; that would be insane.

Alpha particles are solid particles, beta particles are high-speed charged particles, while gamma particles... are essentially high-energy photons, which are extremely powerful electromagnetic waves.

Yun Jingheng's fingers paused on his knee for a moment.

Since it is a wave, it can be interfered with, diffracted, reflected, and detected.

Every wave has a frequency. Gamma rays have an extremely high frequency and an extremely short wavelength, but they are still waves.

If he could create a resonant cavity and cause gamma rays to resonate within it, then the energy of the resonance could be captured by the Soul Power circuit and converted into a readable signal.

It is theoretically feasible.

The problem is that gamma rays have a very short wavelength, and they are an extreme type of electromagnetic wave that hardly refracts or reflects.

Its penetrability is just too strong...

Since we don't know what material can block it, we have to use gamma rays to measure it. But to use gamma rays, we first need a gamma ray source, which means we need to find uranium ore first...

Going back to square one... tsk, why didn't I pay attention in that class back then?

"How long are you going to stand here like this?"

Yun Jingheng turned his head.

Ye Xinglan stood at the doorway, arms crossed.

Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan stood behind her.

The three behind them looked around aimlessly, as if they'd never seen the world before.

"What brings you here?" Yun Jingheng stood up.

Ye Xinglan walked in and glanced around the room. "I'll help you move your things. Weren't you going to live in the Outer Court?"

Yun Jingheng was taken aback. "How did you know?"

Ye Xinglan glanced at him. "Your mother said so."

When did you tell you?

"20 minutes ago."

"Jing Heng, this place... it's really big."

Yun Jingheng looked at Xie Xie, "Really? But I feel it's not as big as your room."

Xie Xie's lips twitched. "How about we switch?"

Yun Jingheng shook his head vigorously, "Forget it, I can't handle that kind of happiness."

"By the way, where's Gu Yue?"

"Sister Gu Yue took the day off today; she wasn't feeling well."

"Really? How come I didn't know that?"

"You didn't come to class, how did you know?"

He scratched his head and looked at Tang Wulin, "Wulin, Aunt Cai didn't scold me secretly, did she?"

Tang Wulin was taken aback. "No, they didn't say anything."

"That's fine."

"Ye Xinglan! Get your feet off my bed!"

"Aren't you going to pack your things first?"

"Everything I need to take with me is packed."

As Yun Jingheng spoke, he put the last "draft" on the table into his soul-guided storage device.

"Then we came for nothing, didn't we?"

"Then why don't you move my room over there? I'll say it again, get your stinky feet off my bed."

"I didn't even touch my shoes, what's wrong with me lying down for a while?"

"Die!"

"Hmph~ What if I don't? What can you do to me?"

"Fine, fine, lie down if you want, we're leaving."

"Hey, how boring! Come on, let me see what your new place looks like."

Xie Xie looked at Tang Wulin, "I thought something terrible was going to happen, but it's just this?"

Tang Wulin gently tugged at Xu Xiaoyan's sleeve, trying to distance himself from Xie Xie, "If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."

Xie Xie was stunned for a moment, "Why would I want to die?"

Tang Wulin glanced at him. "Take a look behind you first."

Xie Xie's expression changed drastically, and he turned his head abruptly.

Yun Jingheng stood behind him, holding a brightly colored Sinking Silver in his hand, seemingly examining it.

Xie Xie silently took a step back. "Uncle-Master, I was just joking."

Yun Jingheng glanced at him and said, "Hmm."

Xie Xie a sigh of relief and moved two steps to the side, distancing himself from Yun Jingheng.

If he had just swung that piece of Sinking Silver at his head, tsk tsk tsk...

Ye Xinglan got out of bed, patted her pants, walked to the door, and said, "Come on. Show us your new place. Where is it?"

"My dad said someone is waiting for me near the Work-Study Student Dormitory and will take me there."

"With your status, you're living in the Work-Study Student Dormitory?"

"It was arranged by my dad, how would I know what he meant?"

Yun Jingheng smoothed his hair, then walked to a box and focused his energy.

Grasp the handles of the box with both hands, use your waist and back muscles to lift it up sharply.

"Snort--"

It remained completely still.

He released his grip, stretched his wrist, looked at the box, and turned to look at Tang Wulin.

I almost forgot about "Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse".

"Give me a hand?"

Tang Wulin walked over, bent down, grabbed the handle of the box with one hand, and gently lifted it off the ground.

He weighed it in his hand, then switched hands and held it at his side, his expression calm.

"Jing Heng, what's in here?"

Yun Jingheng thought for a moment, "The things looted from the Blacksmith Association and the Soul Guidance Teaching Building, and some Soul Tool that couldn't be stored anywhere else."

Tang Wulin nodded. "No wonder it's so heavy."

He carried the suitcase and walked towards the door.

But his movements were like lifting cotton.

"So you're willing to admit you're a bandit?"

Yun Jingheng raised an eyebrow at Ye Xinglan, "Have you ever seen a 'bandit' as handsome as me?"

"You might be the first one."

The Outer Court, Lingbing Plaza.

A middle-aged man stood in the center, wearing a manager's uniform, his hair neatly combed, and a standard smile on his face.

When he saw Yun Jingheng, his eyes lit up, and he quickly walked over to him.

"Young Master Yun, you've arrived. I'm Zhou, the Work-Study Student Dormitory. The Pavilion Master asked me to wait for you here."

Yun Jingheng nodded, "Hello, Teacher Zhou."

Administrator Zhou smiled even wider, "No, no, just call me Old Zhou."

"Your room is this way, come with me."

Administrator Zhou walked ahead, his steps light and quick.

After reaching the low-rise bungalow area Work-Study Student Dormitory, we turned into a forest path.

Xie Xie looked around the area.

Is there a road here? When did this happen?

The path was narrow, just wide enough for two people to walk side by side, with low shrubs planted on both sides, their branches and leaves neatly trimmed.

The sunlight shone down from overhead, illuminating the path brightly.

Five people walked along the path, their footsteps light and soft, making a rustling sound as they stepped on the gravel.

The path was short; it opened up into a bright and clear area in less than two minutes.

On a vacant lot, a two-story building stands all alone.

The exterior walls are grayish-white, painted very smoothly, and the windows are large with shiny, bright glass that reflects the sunlight.

The area in front of the building is paved with bluestone slabs, which look newly laid.

A small tree grows at the entrance of the building. It's only about the height of a person, with tender green leaves, swaying gently in the wind.

To the left of the small building, separated by a small grove of trees, lies the low-rise bungalows that served as the Work-Study Student Dormitory.

Tang Wulin and his group's room was right next door; through the trees, they could vaguely see the clothes drying in the yard.

Yun Jingheng stood in front of the building, glanced at the Work-Study Student Dormitory next door, and then at the small building in front of him.

He turned to look at Administrator Zhou, "This is... the Work-Study Student Dormitory?"

Manager Zhou nodded with a smile, "Yes, this is a newly built apartment, specifically for work-study students. You're the first one to move in."

Hmm... If I haven't had any major mishaps, I remember telling my dad that was yesterday.
