Traveling through the busy farmland of a peasant girl
Chapter 2 System 7
"Host, host, please pay attention to me!" The voice kept echoing in Shen Li's mind, with a hint of urgency and grievance.
"Am I really bound to a mute host?" Xiao Qi muttered to himself, his small voice full of helplessness and resentment, "It's been three days! Wuuuuuu... I always can't get any points, and I have no points left to unbind! Wuuuuuu!" It was like a poor little thing trapped in a dark corner, unable to find a way out, and could only cry helplessly.
"Stop arguing!!!" Shen Li finally couldn't help it. She covered her head with her hands and shouted. The sound was like a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time and suddenly erupted, with an unquestionable majesty.
The childish voice of System Xiaoqi instantly became ecstatic: "Host, host, it turns out you are not mute!" It was like a child who had received an unexpected surprise, and its voice was full of joy.
"Shut up! Why did you bring me to this poor place?" Shen Li's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and she asked harshly. Her voice was as cold as an ice knife in the cold winter, as if it could cut people.
It was rare for Shen Li to think for three days. In this poor and unfamiliar place, she had to figure out how she got here. In her opinion, it seemed that only the squeaking "bucket" in her head - oh no, it was the system that knew the truth.
Poor Shen Li, although she was well-read and had read countless books in her previous life, she had never read a time-travel novel, so she had no idea that she had traveled through time.
In her previous life, her grades were actually just as good as Shen Liu's, but fate played tricks on her. Shen Liu had been beloved by her parents since childhood, like a little princess, pampered by them. But Shen Li, no matter how hard she tried, couldn't seem to win her parents' favor. Gradually, Shen Li began to blank her exam papers, just to make Shen Liu happy. She herself was like a wounded little animal, always retreating to her room to read, as if only books could bring her some solace.
Gradually, she herself didn't know why she didn't want to talk anymore, didn't want to communicate with the outside world, she was just immersed in her own world. She knew everything, she knew that her teachers and classmates didn't like her, and those people secretly called her "little monster" behind her back. They even bullied her, but they couldn't beat her every time. After all, as girls, Shen's father had enrolled Shen Liu and Shen Li in various martial arts classes, Sanda classes, and the like since they were young. Shen's father and mother felt that their daughters were no different from celebrities, and they arranged all the music, chess, calligraphy, painting, horseback riding, and archery for them.
Shen Li pulled the corner of his mouth, a mocking smile appeared on his face, and he said coldly: "Speak!"
Xiao Qi sobbed, like a child who had done something wrong and was admitting his fault in front of an adult: "I am System Xiao Qi. I bind myself to the host to complete tasks and level up to earn points. I can get good grades and be rewarded by the main system."
"But I seem to fail every time. I've been assigned several times." Xiao Qi's voice gradually became lower and lower, filled with frustration. "This time, I was thrown out by the main system, and I didn't know what to do. I happened to see that the host's soul was gray and hazy, and it must be asking for something. So I used up my last points to bind you. After many twists and turns, we got lost and ended up in Daya's body." Xiao Qi stammered, "She just happened to starve to death... So I just happened to be out of points again."
"I swear, I originally wanted to help you find a daughter of an official or a lady of some kind!" Xiao Qi tried to defend himself.
Shen Li rolled her eyes... forget it! She thought to herself, this unreliable system, its words are like clouds in the sky, floating here and there, with no certainty.
"So, what do I need to do?" Shen Li asked patiently. Although there was still a hint of impatience in her eyes, there was also a little more calmness, as if she was groping forward in the darkness, trying to grasp a glimmer of hope.
"It's very simple, very simple. As long as the host completes the tasks issued, we will get points, hehe..." Xiao Qi rubbed his hands and said, if he had hands. At this moment, he was like a small vendor eager to sell his products, except that he was just a lowly ball. Alas, thank God, Xiao Qi sighed. If he couldn't complete this mission, he would turn into dust and disappear in the universe. Fortunately, he bound to the host in time!
"So, you're just a useless piece of shit? I do all the work, and you get the points?" Shen Li felt like she had exhausted her patience. Her eyes were filled with disdain and anger, as if Xiao Qi in front of her was a thief who stole the fruits of her labor.
"No, no," Xiao Qi said quickly, his voice full of panic, "The points are all yours. Once the points mall is opened, there will be many items you can redeem."
Shen Li narrowed her eyes slightly, examining this so-called System Seven. Although she was still full of doubts about this sudden situation, since she was already in this situation, she could only wait and see. "Then tell me, what is this first task?" Shen Li said coldly, her arms folded across her chest.
Xiao Qi's voice was tinged with excitement, as if she had finally waited for Shen Li to accept the mission. "Host, the first mission is to help Daya's family improve their lives and double their income this month. Daya's family is one of the poorest in the village. Her parents are in poor health, and she has a younger brother to support. Daya died because she was extremely hungry and accidentally fell while looking for food."
Shen Li snorted softly, "Is it that simple?" She was already thinking of various possible solutions in her mind. Although she was ignored by her family in her previous life, she had learned a lot of knowledge from books, whether it was about agricultural planting or some handicrafts, she had dabbled in it.
"Yes, host, it will definitely be a piece of cake for you." Xiao Qi said flatteringly.
Shen Li ignored Xiao Qi and returned to Daya's home, her own. She began to carefully observe the surrounding environment. It was a shabby little courtyard, the house was also shabby, and there was almost nothing decent in the house. She saw a small vegetable patch in the yard, but the vegetables there were sparsely grown.
She decided to start with the vegetable patch. Shen Li found some tools and began to till the soil. Her movements were skillful and smooth, leaving Xiao Qi stunned. "Host, how do you know all this?" Xiao Qi asked curiously.
"Hmph, reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. I have read more in books than you can imagine." Shen Li said while working.
Over the next few days, Shen Li meticulously tended the vegetable patch and planted some wild vegetable seeds from the nearby hills. Meanwhile, she used twigs and hay to weave small objects. Her fingers moved nimbly, and soon, she had a delicate little basket.
Daya's parents found Shen Li's changes a little strange, but they were also very pleased to see that she was working so hard to improve the family's situation.
Thanks to Shen Li's efforts, the vegetables in the vegetable garden grew better and better. She took the excess vegetables to the village to sell, and together with the small woven items and herbs dug in the mountains, the family's income really increased significantly within half a month.
Xiao Qi cheered in Shen Li's mind, "Host, you are awesome! We have completed the first mission and now have a lot of points."
Shen Li, however, was not overly happy. She knew that this was just the beginning. She had to survive well in this strange world and impress those who once looked down on her. She said coldly to Xiao Qi, "What's the next mission?"
Xiao Qi sensed Shen Li's firm determination and quickly said, "The next task is to help the village solve the water problem. This village has always been short of water. Everyone has to go far away to fetch water, and the water is very turbid."
A glint flashed in Shen Li's eyes. She knew this was another challenge, but she wouldn't back down. She began to survey the village, searching for a possible water source. Her story with this world had just begun...
