Crossing over reveals a waste's difficult journey home

When Jiang Qi saw Jiang Tuan, who looked expectant, at the entrance of the Wenzheng Hall, he did not show any surprise. He waved his hand and asked people to go in and find a place to wait.

He first discussed some political affairs with the ministers, dealt with a few urgent matters, asked the eunuchs to go out, and then turned his attention to Jiang Tuan, who was almost scratching his head because of waiting.

"Well, Your Majesty, how was your conversation?"

"You didn't ask the system? Didn't it tell you about the conversation between me and it?"

"Ah? Your Majesty knows everything."

Jiang Tuan felt a little guilty when the existence of the system was pointed out to him, because the other party knew the existence of the system and must know that the gods he had mentioned before were all lies.

Glancing at Jiang Qi with shame, he said, "Since Your Majesty knows the existence of the system, you must know that I have a conflict with the system. I don't want to ask it, and I don't want to talk to it.

It probably knew that I didn't want to talk to it, so it didn't tell me what I talked about with His Majesty.

Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to lie to you. I was too flustered when I first came to Daxia, and I was afraid that you would think I was a demon and burn me to death, so I lied."

As he spoke, Jiang Tuan felt more and more guilty. He hated the system's concealment, and he had also concealed others. How could he have the nerve to expect that he would not be hated?

Jiang Tuan’s words made Jiang Qi feel helpless.

He understood Jiang Tuan's lying and didn't think he had done anything wrong. Given his personality, it wasn't surprising that he concealed the truth in a panic.

If he was suddenly brought to a completely unfamiliar place by the system, he would tell more lies and do more extreme things.

In his opinion, Jiang Tuan's concealment was a trivial matter. It was not worth his anger at all, let alone the point of hating him.

What made him helpless was the other person's personality. Not wanting to talk to others because he was angry was too childish and willful.

However, thinking about the system's approach, Jiang Qi's helplessness disappeared. Encountering a system that was somewhat intelligent but not so intelligent, it could only be said that simple Jiang Tuan was too unlucky.

"Jiang Tuan, you don't need to know what I said to the system. Like you said, some things are not as good as knowing more. You only need to know two things now."

"Your Majesty, which two things?"

"First, the system and I can do nothing without you. Second, the system has never thought of hurting you from beginning to end, and I will not hurt you after knowing your origins."

Huh? What does this mean? Jiang Tuan said he didn't quite understand.

Looking at Jiang Tuan's confused eyes, Jiang Qi had to explain.

The reason why nothing can be done without Jiang Tuan is that although the system is an intelligent system, it is, after all, just an intangible thing similar to an energy body, and it needs a host to convey its ideas.

The system traveled through countless worlds to find a host with a matching magnetic field who could travel with it across time and space to Daxia. Apart from the missed genius, there was only Jiang Tuan.

The system communicates with others through dreams, but there are strict limitations. The only person it can communicate with in this way is Jiang Qi, who is known as the son of destiny of the Daxia world.

More importantly, things like sending dreams cannot be done frequently because the magnetic field is too repulsive. If it is done too often, either the system's internal programs will crash or Jiang Qi's brain will not be able to withstand the shock and he will turn into a fool.

In this way, if the system and Jiang Qi want to communicate frequently, they have to rely on Jiang Tuan, and can only rely on Jiang Tuan.

The reason why the system will not harm Jiang Tuan is that once the system is bound to the host, it cannot be unbound unless the task is completed.

This means that if Jiang Tuan really gives up, Jiang Qi will not know anything. The system is Tuan’s intangible energy, and once the energy is consumed, it will directly dissipate in time and space.

The system did some selfish things, but it really didn't want to hurt Jiang Tuan. Instead, it tried to protect the host for the mission and for itself.

Having said that, Jiang Qi gave Jiang Tuan another reassurance.

Although the system is very intelligent, so intelligent that even a modern person like Jiang Tuan is surprised, Jiang Tuan does not need to worry or even care.

Just as Jiang Tuan thought, before the system owner created it, he had already thought of every aspect and set up the program, so the system had no way of harming the host.

As for Jiang Qi himself, when he first didn't know Jiang Tuan's origins, he did have some dangerous thoughts.

But when he knew that Jiang Tuan was here to help him and Da Xia, let alone hurt him, he and the system were too busy to protect the other party, so how could he hurt him?

After Jiang Qi finished speaking, Jiang Tuan thought for a long time with his not-so-flexible brain, and finally said, "Your Majesty means that I don't have to worry about anything and just continue to be the same as before?"

"You are right to say that."

"Will the system keep secrets from me in the future?"

"No, the only thing it has concealed is contacting its master. Now that it knows there is no hope, it will focus on collecting energy in the future. If you do anything wrong, it will also remind you.

The more energy it collects, the more places it can remind you of, it says.”

"That puts me at ease."

Jiang Tuan was really afraid that the system would do something else without telling him. He was so afraid that his trust in the system might be gone.

At that time, he might doubt whether the task he was doing was useful, and even question whether he could go home. He was afraid that he could not bear it.

Seeing Jiang Tuan's relaxed expression, all his previous nervousness and anxiety disappeared, Jiang Qi was puzzled: "Aren't you afraid that I am lying to you? Aren't you afraid that I will team up with the system to use you?"

"Ah? Is this still possible? Your Majesty, are you planning to team up with the system to use me?"

Jiang Tuan didn't really think that much. He just believed whatever Jiang Qi said. Why would he consider whether to use it or not?

Jiang Qi rubbed his brows and stopped trying to understand Jiang Tuan's thoughts to avoid making himself more tired.

"No, no, there's no use for someone like you. Hurry up and leave. I have a headache just looking at you."

After being kicked out, Jiang Tuan began to understand that he had made Jiang Qi stupid and the other party didn't want to see him again for the time being.

But he didn't care. He was in a good mood. Someone had solved his worries for him, so how could he not be happy?

When he was happy, he was willing to pay attention to the system: "System, you won't hide anything from me again, right?"

"Dear, the system won't work anymore! From today on, the system will work with you to concentrate on helping Da Xia. Try to accumulate energy and go home together!"

"Yes, that's right! Don't be discouraged if you can't contact your master. When we have enough energy, we can just go back directly."

Jiang Tuan made peace with the system, and both he and the system were ready to try, planning to think about how to accumulate energy better and faster. At this time, Zhen'an City, the northernmost city of Daxia, also became unusually lively.
