Quick Wear Beauty

Chapter 4: The Herbalist is Charming (I)

System Qiqi: "Welcome host to the world of "Jianghu Yuxingji". I am System Qiqi. Please take care of me in the future!"

Qingli: "Hmm..."

Qingli slowly opened her eyes. Her body was destroyed when she was undergoing the tribulation, and she almost lost her soul!

As a result, she encountered this system, which claimed to be a technological product from a higher plane. It could take her through time and space, gain energy in various fictional worlds, and condense her soul. She was about to return between heaven and earth to nourish the Floating Cloud Continent. At the last moment, a stone she had obtained for a long time suddenly reacted and protected a piece of her soul!

Qingli: "Finally I've crossed over. The strong winds in this world are really hard to bear. After crossing over once, I feel tired and painful. I have a splitting headache now!"

Qingli frowned and rubbed his head. He felt so uncomfortable!

System Qiqi: "Host, it's mainly because your soul is severely damaged now. In order to protect you, I don't have much energy left, so... hehe, you have to bear with it for a while. In the future, when your soul is stronger, I will have more energy, and traveling through time will not be difficult!"

Qingli: "Well, I'll just rest for a while. Thank you, Qiqi."

System Qiqi: "You're welcome, Qingli."

Qingli carefully looked around the environment she was in. It was a small women's boudoir. The furnishings in the room were simple, with a bed, a cabinet, a dressing table, and a stool next to the dressing table. These were the only pieces of furniture, and none of them were made of precious wood. It seemed that the original owner's family was not wealthy.

She was sitting on a small bed with only a thin quilt and straw underneath. It was midsummer, but she wasn't cold at all.

The dressing table was empty, with only a wooden hairpin and butterfly earrings placed on it. The mirror was not clear enough. She leaned in to take a closer look at her current appearance. She looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, with delicate features. She guessed that the original owner must have not lived a good life. She was very thin and looked weak. There was a pitiful look between her eyebrows and eyes. Her skin was quite fair, not yellow or dull.

She left the room again and saw that it was already evening, but there was no smoke rising from cooking nearby. She guessed that the place she lived in was very remote.

There were many medicinal herbs drying in the courtyard outside the bamboo house, a pharmacy on the left, and an empty house on the right. She just saw an offering tablet, and it seemed that the original owner lived here alone. The master she depended on had passed away long ago.

It's not easy for a woman to survive alone! She just discovered that her body was born with deficiencies and was not born at full term. She is weak and sickly, and she is alone and helpless. No wonder there is always sadness in her eyes.

System Qiqi: "Qingli, did you rest well? I still have something to tell you."

Qingli: "Yeah, I just drank some water and I feel much better. Tell me."

System Qiqi: "Actually, Qingli, I have been sealed in that Destiny Stone for three thousand years, and I have been with you for seven hundred years. I have wanted to get out a long time ago, but you used fire, dripping blood, freezing and other methods, and I just couldn't break the seal. This time you are about to ascend, and I came out of the Destiny Stone instead!"

Qingli: "Destiny Stone? I found this in a secret place. I have a vague feeling that it is not an ordinary stone, but I just don't know how to use it. Maybe our destiny will come when I die."

System Qiqi: "Well, if it is destined to happen, it will happen eventually. If it is not destined to happen, don't force it."

Qingli: "Hey, the thunder tribulation I experienced during my ascension far exceeded what I could endure. Could it be because of you?"

System Qiqi: "Uh... maybe it's fate. The opportunity for your ascension is to unlock the seal of the Fate Stone. However, your world was once invaded by a forbidden system that wanted to destroy the world and eventually took away a lot of the Origin of the Heavenly Dao. Therefore, the Heavenly Dao hates the system deeply. It noticed my existence and probably thought I was also going to steal the Origin, so it made a ruthless move to destroy me."

Qingli: "You! Good! I was wondering why I suddenly had to endure the thunder tribulation. Forget it, forget it. It's come to this point. There's no point in saying more."

System Qiqi: "That's right, didn't I protect you at the last moment? What I'm going to talk about next is the matter of time travel. There are several ways to obtain energy through time travel, and they are all similar. The first is to fulfill the wish of the wisher, who is usually someone you have a connection with; the second is to gain the favor of the world consciousness, such as conquering the child of destiny and becoming the heroine from a cannon fodder; the third is to save a world on the verge of collapse and receive the reward of the small world's heaven."

Qingli: "It sounds like the ways to obtain energy do overlap."

System Qiqi: "Qingli, my system comes with a set of operating procedures. Although I have gained some energy in your original world, I still have to follow the program. There will be tasks, and there will be extra rewards after completing them."

Qingli: "Reward? Isn't it given by the Heavenly Dao of the Small World?"

System Qiqi: "No, I'm a system of the Time Travel Bureau. I'm under the jurisdiction of the Bureau and have a system store. Completing tasks earns points that can be redeemed for goods. Generally speaking, our tasks are more likely to capture the Son of Fortune, and the points are quite high. The tasks of saving the world are less likely to be encountered and are more difficult to complete."

Qingli: "I understand what counterattack means, but is the son of luck the male protagonist of the novel you mentioned? What does strategy mean?"

System Qiqi: "The Son of Fortune isn't necessarily the male protagonist, he could also be a supporting actor. Some worlds have multiple parallel stories, so there's more than one Son of Fortune. Qingli, the strategy is to win the love of the Son of Fortune!"

Qingli: "What you mean...I don't feel good!"

System Qiqi: "Hey, don't worry, I've been with you for so long, and you have a lot of female friends! You are both good and evil, and you have good luck in the Floating Cloud Continent. I think you should be quite receptive!"

Qingli: "Haha, it seems you really know a lot!"

Qingli smiled faintly. She did have many fellow Taoists in the Floating Cloud Continent, about half of them were men and half were women. Most of the male cultivators were just friends with her. Because of the problem of the cultivation method, she had to enter the Tao through love. As for a small number of them, they had really had a relationship with her. Of course, not at the same time. She was always serious about a relationship and did not have the ability to play tricks on so many geniuses. After living for a long time, the intertwined emotions were too strong. In the end, she was like both relatives and lovers to some of them.

When she thought of those people who were so kind to her, she felt a little sad, but unfortunately she couldn't go back.

System Qiqi: "By the way, you need to be careful when doing tasks. You also have to follow the rules when traveling through time, so it's best not to change the character setting. You should conform to the original owner's personality and style. It's best to treat yourself as the original owner."

Qingli: "..."

Qingli: "I can understand the character setting. In the world of immortal cultivation, there is also the concept of possession. Some people are so different before and after that it makes people suspect that they are possessed by a powerful person. Some people even check the compatibility between their soul and body. You are not taking over someone else's body, are you?"

System Qiqi: "How can you say that! I am a regular system! I am exchanging with the original owner! Exchanging! The original owner is willing! And some of the original owners were already dead when we traveled through time!"

System Qiqi: "Don't worry, you will perfectly match the original owner's body. Even in the world of immortal cultivation, no one will be able to detect that there is something wrong with your body and soul. No one will find out that you are not the original person!"

Qingli: "Okay, okay, I am the original owner, and the original owner is me. Just treat it as a training, experience different lives, and transfer memories."

Qingli didn't ask any more questions. Right now, she should first figure out the world created by the novel "Jianghu Yuxing Ji"!
