Chapter 175: Keeping Gu Qianqian Determined
Being sucked into the vortex, Gu Qianqian thought she died; she couldnt breathe, and her eyes closed by themselves. She couldnt feel anything in the darkness, but she could feel countless eyes on her and invisible threads from the darkness connected to her body as her body sank and sank. The threads seemed to break one after another as she fell deeper into the darkness, but
One thread seemed extraordinarily strong, preventing her from falling into death.
There were countless, intertwined murmurs in her ears as if urging and guiding Gu Qianqian to just give up and let go. However, among the voices, she could hear an all-too-familiar voiceher system!
Gu Qianqian You cant die, or youll have to start over again. Gu Qianqian Youre broke, and youll have to sell your house for money.
A vision was forced onto her, and she could see a dark figure sneaking into her homesleeping on her sofa, rummaging through her stuff.
And going through her beloved piggy bank!
And her money, like birds out of a cage, flew into the distance and disappeared.
It was like an elixir of life was poured into her mouth; her heart started to pump blood back into her system, and she could see, she could feel, she could hear, she could shout.
No! Not my money!
Gu Qianqian screamed and woke up, and her limbs desperately swung as if launching a fierce attack on an invisible enemy as she leapt onto the ground.
System! Somebody found my piggy bank!
Are you kidding me right now?
Breaking into the world of the bamboo scrolls through abnormal means was dangerous; the fallen god buried within is powerful, and if you want to avoid certain death, there are no tricks.
You must either be stronger than the god itself, suppress your own energy, or have a strong enough will.
And clearly, Gu Qianqian has the will to survive, even though the will to survive is in her money.
When Gu Qianqian was approaching the pit of death, the system tried many ways to reinvigorate her: the visions of her saving the world, finding her family, luxurious dinners, a prince charming
Never would it be expected that she would awaken at the thought of her money being stolen!
System! We need to get out of here! Somebody got to my piggy bank!
Gu Qianqian
Yes?
He kissed me and touched my face. Am am I in love? She whispered while holding her hot face in both hands. She couldnt describe her feelings, but she felt warm and giddy.
Ah, damn it.
The system knew what the Charm of Spring Winds does: in addition to causing severe damage to urban legends, it also makes the target feel that spring is coming.
And the meaning of the phrase is very subtle.
That damn Witch I just thought she was poor and made the most accessible Charm to her. I didnt expect her to plan this out to disturb Gu Qianqians will!
Now that Gu Qianqian is lovestruck, she will have zero will to fight against the Witch! Unless money is involved, of course!
In the past, hosts have been distracted by factors like true love or avarice, and it was all because of the Witches of the past conjuring visions like these.
Asking ordinary teenage boys to deal with matters like thatits over before it even starts.
To avoid that, I got a female host this time But not even Gu Qianqian was spared from a vision like this!
After thinking for a while, the system said, Gu Qianqian, the boys ultimate goal is to be with you!
Isnt that a good thing?
And once both of you are together, do you know what will happen?
N-no?
After you get together, your stuff is his! From then on, half of your money is his, half of your food is his, and even your piggyback! Nothing good comes from a man!
S-stop. That sounds scary, she said, immediately losing interest in the boy.
Good. Now, lets get down to business. This place is the land that I told you about beforea land where you can obtain a lot of knowledge! However, because how we entered is a little different, where we landed is also different. The thing is
The system was prepared to issue a mission to Gu Qianqian, but she immediately got up and pointed into the distance.
System, look over there! She pointed to the dense jungle in the distance. Someones over there!
Looking in the direction of Gu Qianqians finger, a few villagers are standing on the hillside in the distance. Their faces were obscured by fog, and they seemed to have been watching them for a while now.
Villagers? The system gulped. I thought there were only scarlet lanterns here!
Before the system could stop her, Gu Qianqian immediately got up and darted into the forest: Somethings not right! Lets go have a look!
