Xiuxian Work Log

In the dense woods, a slender white hand pushed aside the weeds, revealing the white face of a girl in black.

Sweat beads on his forehead shone in the sunlight. Lin Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the herbs on the ground. He picked the herbs and put them in his arms. Lin Qingyue followed the mountain path that the animals had taken back to his residence.

The mountain path was not easy to navigate. What looked like dense grass might actually be a cliff below. Lin Qingyue had climbed many mountains with his parents before and knew some of the precautions, like using a stick to break grass to prevent snake bites and wrapping up tightly to prevent insect bites.

Wen Lingyun has a fever.

The preliminary judgment was that the high fever was caused by hypothermia. If the fever did not go down after taking the medicine, Lin Qingyue could only use her points to buy him repair fluid, but she only had 10 points now.

Lin Qingyue felt that the two of them were doomed. She looked at the system time and saw that it was already half past seven, and the Broken Dust system was not online yet.

Logically speaking, Wen Lingyun is the target of the mission it issued, so the Dust-Breaking System should not stand by and watch him die, right?

Probably not?

Why did she find this sentence impossible when she thought about it?

It must be that the Dust-Breaking System gave her a very bad impression!

Lin Qingyue took whatever edible things she saw on the roadside and put them in her arms, and soon she returned to their house.

It is more like a cowshed than a house. It is mainly a frame made of several wooden logs, with some grass spread on top.

It was exactly the same as the cowshed she had seen the villagers build before.

This is the house she built.

Lin Qingyue didn't go far when he went out to look for herbs, so he came back quickly. He entered the house and touched Wen Lingyun's forehead, which was still burning hot.

The situation still seemed very tricky. Lin Qingyue covered Wen Lingyun with his clothes, returned to the stone in front of the house and sat down. He placed the clean round-bottomed stone on the shelf and started to make a fire.

After the fire was lit, he went to the nearby stream to wash the herbs and remove impurities, scooped up a handful of water, filtered the water with a cloth, boiled it, and added the herbs... After coaxing Wen Lingyun to drink the medicine, Lin Qingyue sat on the stone and stared blankly at the front, with a dead silence in his eyes.

As soon as the Dust-Breaking System came online, it was frightened by Lin Qingyue's haggard appearance.

Dust-Breaking System: "You went to steal?"

Lin Qingyue glanced at the extinguished fire and rolled his eyes. "In this remote place, I stole your things? Your question doesn't seem like something a normal person would ask. But if you are Pochen, then it is normal~"

Dust-Breaking System: "Then why do you look like you're about to die? Were you attacked by a wild beast? You're not injured."

"There were no ferocious beasts." Lin Qingyue's voice was sleepy. "But I did not sleep all night. I was afraid that a bear would eat me and the child in one bite."

Lin Qingyue: "Can you tell me the truth? Are there tigers, wild bears, and wolves in this place?"

"Sorry, host, you need to find the answer yourself~" Broken Dust System said in a mean way.

"Pochen." Lin Qingyue's voice was unusually calm. "You know, we can't complete the mission if we stay here all the time."

"The longer we stay here, the less likely it is that the mission will be accomplished."

"If you really cared about the quest 'Beauty is Not Beauty', you wouldn't keep saying things like 'giant baby, giant baby' and so on."

"A system that proves to be of no use to its host is a burden."

"is it you?"

Lin Qingyue smiled meaningfully.

The Dust-Breaking System's mechanical voice remained unmoved. "Host, you've been overlooking one issue. It's true that the mission 'Beautiful is Not Beautiful' was issued by the interstellar people, but—"

"This is just a random selection from the question bank! It's a beginner's task issued to the new host. Its priority isn't as high as the tasks I issue. Whether you complete it or not won't affect me."

"But when you say I didn't help you, you're actually denying my other help. Isn't it a bit bad to just provoke me and make me prove myself?"

"But let me tell you, this is a primeval forest. Not only are there all the animals you just mentioned, but there are also spiritual creatures hidden deep within."

"This deathland is boundless and has no exit."

"What about Wen Lingyun?" Lin Qingyue said coldly, "You don't have to complete your mission anymore. Do you plan to let him die here with me?"

"This is indeed a problem." Dust-Breaking System supported its chin, its deep blue eyes turning thoughtfully, its short platinum curly hair swaying gently, and it squatted on the ground, like a weak and helpless little boy.

"I figured it out!" The little boy jumped up, propping himself up on his knees. "I can temporarily enable the system's danger alert mode for you, but it can only be enabled for 12 hours a day, with no time limit. In addition, as a condition for enabling danger mode, you need to pay me 50% of the reward points for the 'Beauty is Not Beautiful' quest."

Lin Qingyue opens the system space. After completing the "Mei Fei Mei" mission, he can obtain 100,000 points. He can also activate the item exchange function with the previous world and the live broadcast mode.

Lin Qingyue looked at the item exchange for a long time until the Dust-Breaking System repeated it again.

Lin Qingyue turned his eyes away and asked, "You mean I should split the reward points for completing the task with you 50-50?"

"Pochen, you're too treacherous, aren't you? Are you taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"

"There's nothing I can do." Dust-Breaking System spread out its hands. "I don't want to be so ruthless, but buying skins and supporting planet construction requires a lot of points!"

Lin Qingyue didn't buy it. "That doesn't seem like a good reason for you to split it 50-50, right?"

Lin Qingyue: "Nine to one, you one and I nine."

"No, fifty-five."

Lin Qingyue: "The mission you posted hasn't started yet, so there's no need for me to spend so many points on your mission goal. I'll say it again, 20/80, you split 20/80."

"Twenty-eight is too little." Dust-Breaking System was angry. "It takes 50 points for you to open a protective shield, and that's only two hours. I have 12 hours, a full six times as long!"

"At least four and six, I'll give you four and you'll give me six!"

Lin Qingyue: "You also said it's a protective shield, it can also provide protection, while your danger warning mode can only serve as a warning. It's not worth that much, right? Sanqi, this is the final negotiation. If you don't put away your greed, let's just not talk about it."

"No, 37 is too little, 46! Why can I only earn a hard work fee? Then I'd rather not do it!"

"Forget it." Lin Qingyue curled his lips and gave up the negotiation.

"You really don't want it anymore?"

Lin Qingyue did not return to the Broken Dust System. He picked up a branch from the side and sharpened it with his sword.

Seeing that she was truly unmoved, the Dust-Breaking System suddenly became anxious.

"37 is 37! I agree!"

"No!" Lin Qingyue's eyes were fierce, "I don't agree!"
