Chapter 6 Are you going to burn paper money for me?
"Qianqian! A stunningly beautiful demon monk just flashed by, with a double-open-door figure and an unparalleled face. He's the type you like best. I was so stunned by him that I forgot you were talking to me. I'm so sorry!"
Ji Qian straightened her back, carried Situ Shan on her back, and spun around searching, shouting:
"What! Where is he? Why didn't you tell me sooner? I missed out on a fortune! My God, turn back time! I just want to see that demonic monk one more time! I'd die happy!"
Situ Shan was spinning so much that he was dizzy.
She knew that the most ruthless woman in the path of ruthlessness could fool even ghosts, let alone her.
"Stop spinning, little sister, you're making me dizzy."
Upon hearing Situ Shan's words, Ji Qian abruptly stopped in her tracks.
She is the most ruthless woman in the ruthless world of ghosts.
Situ Shan was almost thrown out and subjected to centrifugal force. She felt like throwing up and said weakly, "I was just kidding, just joking. It made me dizzy, and now I really want to throw up!"
I can't vomit at all.
She felt terrible; she had only eaten a few fruits since transmigrating, and they made her feel nauseous.
"Alright, just bear with it. There's a cave ahead. I've used my divine sense to explore it, and there are no footprints around."
"Ok!"
Situ Shan felt that she had just been asking for trouble and shouldn't have teased her; in the end, she was the one who suffered.
This broken body will be ruined sooner or later.
The two reached the cave entrance, and Situ Shan lit a piece of firewood. The entrance was not large, only allowing one person to pass sideways.
"Fanzi, you wait outside first, I'll go in and scout ahead."
"Okay, be careful."
After Situ Shan finished speaking, he handed over the firewood.
Ji Qian took it and said, "Be careful too, I'll be right back!"
Situ Shan carefully examined the cave; there was no vegetation on the rocks and no greenery on the ground.
There was only a tiny bit of green ten meters away, and something felt off.
Take out a prayer mat, sit down against the stone wall, close your eyes and wait patiently.
He took out the ten remaining pills from his storage ring: three Rejuvenation Pills, four Spirit Recovery Pills, two Fasting Pills, and one Detoxification Pill.
This is a commonly used elixir during training.
After thoroughly cleaning the storage ring, I found two array plates, but neither of them were of high level.
One level-two defensive array and one level-one spirit-gathering array.
There were also hoes, seeds, some medicinal plants, and a few spiritual plants.
Three second-tier talismans.
A cauldron for alchemy.
Several sets of clothes, tables and chairs, bowls and chopsticks, buckets and other household items.
Some fruit and spirit rice.
765 low-grade spirit stones.
Three books and two jade slips.
A black stone, its purpose unclear.
There was nothing like an identity jade pendant.
There is a cauldron for alchemy, and an alchemist.
Did I guess wrong before?
She was neither a disciple of a sect nor a disciple of a family.
How did the original owner, with a broken body that could only catch his breath after two steps and needed support after three, manage to reach the second level of Qi Refining?
Why would they come to the Star Spirit Secret Realm for training?
In just one day, they had already encountered three waves of beasts.
How did she survive all alone before?
The more I thought about it, the more my head ached, so I simply stopped thinking about it, packed my things, and waited quietly for my girlfriends.
I counted in my head, keeping track of the time.
Time passed second by second, but Ji Qian still hadn't returned, and her expression was very unpleasant.
This damn broken body!
Go, I'm afraid she'll collapse before she even finds Ji Qian!
If I don't go, what if something happens to Ji Qian and I urgently need her to save my life?
correct!
"Bestie System, are you still alive?"
[I'm already dead, why are you burning paper money for me?]
What the hell are you talking about? Burning paper money? What kind of wishful thinking are you? I've barely even burned any for my great-grandmother. Who do you think you are?
"System, can you check on Qianqian for me?"
Not good!
Situ Shan hurriedly got up and, supporting himself against the mountain wall, walked into the cave.
The narrow cave was pitch black inside; even with a torch lit, visibility was only two meters.
Thinking that Ji Qian might be suffering in the dark, he quickened his pace.
Damn it, what a terrible body I have. I could only walk three meters while holding onto the mountain wall, and the cold sweat on my forehead dripped onto my eyelashes, obscuring my vision.
"System, we agreed to the contract in our hearts back then, but the dog-headed spider just happened to come and only said half of it. You can hear what we were thinking, but you didn't bind to it? That's your dereliction of duty, it's your fault, and you have to compensate us."
Ji Qian's condition wasn't good, and she wasn't much better off.
They don't have many good items to begin with, so they'll take advantage of any opportunity to get something for free.
[When did this system ever say there was no binding? It's your own carelessness, not my fault!]
Worried about her best friend, Situ Shan temporarily didn't bother arguing with the system and hurriedly checked the map.
The map shows that the two are less than 20 meters apart.
He hurriedly contacted Ji Qian.
"Beep~ Beep~ Beep"
Time ticked by, but no one answered the phone.
Despite feeling dizzy, Situ Shan quickened her pace, but after only two meters, she could no longer lift her feet.
No, we can't rush it. Rushing is slow, steady is fast.
My body is too weak, so I have to stop and rest.
What did you mean when you said it wasn't very good?
She is currently...
"Ah! I'm going to kill you all, you all deserve to die!"
A desperate scream is more likely to break a person's heart in the quiet darkness.
Situ Shan's hard-won sanity crumbled again.
"I need to teleport to her side."
She didn't care about being a burden or unable to help; she didn't want to care. All she could hear in her mind was Qianqian's desperate screams, and she could even imagine her desperate expression.
Let me finish.
"Okay, go ahead!"
Whether she listens or not is her business.
Quickly locate the send button.
Calm down, she's alright!
"I am very calm."
We'll know if Qianqian is alright once she sees the person.
Find the teleport button.
Don't press it, she's really okay, you can trust me.
"Well, I believe you!"
Situ Shan pressed the teleportation button expressionlessly.
[Hey, didn't you trust me? Why are you still pressing the button?]
Feeling dizzy and lightheaded, Situ Shan was thrown to the ground next to Ji Qian.
Without thinking too much, he scanned her back and forth, and only when he saw that Ji Qian was indeed fine did he finally feel relieved.
"She's fine, why didn't you say so sooner? This is the second time already, you, as the system, have completely failed in your duties."
Situ Shan rolled over and lay directly on the ground, rubbing her eyes because the light was too bright.
She was too weak to get up and could only blame the system while observing her surroundings.
How can you blame me? I clearly told you she was fine, but you didn't listen!
"Then tell me, what's her situation now?"
Five blue glass lamps with strange patterns adorned the stone wall, emitting pale flames that illuminated the entire secret chamber.
[Accept the test within the illusion.]
"You know perfectly well that she's undergoing a test, so why don't you just say so directly? Do you want me to waste a teleportation opportunity so you can send us on our way sooner?"
"How could that be? I'm bound to you all; we're one. If you die, I'll be reborn."
Apart from five lamps and two stone doors, there was nothing else.
The lights were too bright, causing my eyes to water and I quickly closed them.
"I don't care what you think, all I know is that you already owe me and Qianqian twice."
First, why didn't you tell us when you successfully bound your account? If you had just told us, we could have found a safe place by following the map.
Secondly, you could clearly say, 'She's fine, she's just in an illusion.' If you explained it clearly, would I still teleport her?
Situ Shan was perfectly aware that even if the system explained it clearly, she would still teleport, but that wouldn't stop her from taking advantage of the system.
