The system forced me to blow up the female lead's fishpond.

[Host is awesome!]

Ya Dan was also dumbfounded when she saw it in her consciousness. She never expected that the host she was bound to would have such strong combat power.

Shen Zhizhi stood there, panting.

The original owner's body was too weak, and she had never had this kind of training before. That flying kick just now almost strained her back.

After throwing two big men in a row, my arms are now sore and painful.

But to avoid arousing suspicion, she endured the pain and took two steps forward, a smirk playing on her lips: "How about it? Still want to hit me?"

The two servants, seeing the petite yet surprisingly strong woman before them, retreated in panic, frantically helping the unconscious Zhu Shen to her feet.

Seeing that they were about to escape, Shen Zhizhi reached out her hand: "My hands and feet hurt now, I need to see a doctor. Where's the money?"

She was penniless and had nowhere to go, and she would need money for many things in the future. Judging from Zhu Shen's clothes and appearance, he was a young master from a wealthy family and must have carried a lot of silver with him.

The two servants were practically having a heart attack.

How can this woman be so shameless? They were the ones who were beaten half to death, yet she still had the nerve to ask them for medical fees?

But in order to save their lives, the two had no choice but to tear off the purse from Zhu Shen's waist and hand it to her, then ran away without looking back.

Anyway, the young master is unconscious, so when they ask, we can just say that this woman stole it.

The old man took down the hexagonal glass lantern, stepped forward, and handed it to Shen Zhizhi: "Young lady, if you can guess the answer to the riddle, then this lantern is yours."

"Thank you, sir." Shen Zhizhi smiled slightly and accepted the lantern.

The Great Chu Kingdom was chilly at night. A wind had started blowing outside the window, carrying a chill that ruffled Shen Chao's hair.

He gazed at the delicate figure gradually disappearing into the crowd on the street, closed his eyes, and smiled faintly.

The secluded path was rarely visited.

Feeling the desolation around her, Shen Zhizhi sighed almost imperceptibly.

Although she had no family before transmigrating into the book, at least she had friends. Now, transmigrating into this lousy book, everyone is against her, and even keeping her life is a luxury. Isn't she just too miserable?

With a sigh, she weighed the purse she had just snatched in her hand, and her tightly furrowed brows relaxed.

Fortunately, there's always a way out; Zhu Shen had quite a bit of silver with him. She'll figure out how to earn some more money and then stay at an inn from now on.

As she pondered, Shen Zhizhi's steps became a little more cheerful.

But at the corner at the end of the alley, she met the person she least wanted to see in her life.

Shen Qinshou?!

She seemed to have been waiting there on purpose. When she saw Shen Zhizhi, she showed no surprise. Instead, she narrowed her eyes and a mocking smile appeared on her lips.

[Host! You're in danger again!]

Shen Zhizhi was so angry she almost laughed.

Of course she knows!

Stuck here in the middle of the night, do you think I'll run into love around the corner?

Shen Zhizhi's expression hardened, and she turned to run away. She had exhausted too much energy just now in teaching those three big men a lesson, and she didn't have the energy to continue entangled with them.

Unexpectedly, as he turned around, six strong men in black jumped down from the roof.

"Heh, you escaped from the Second Prince's clutches, and now even the Third Prince has let you go. Shen Zhizhi, you really have impressed me."

Shen Qinshou's cold voice echoed in the silent night, sending chills down one's spine for no reason.

"So what? What do you want?" Shen Zhizhi's face was calm, but her heart was already churning with turmoil.

After a moment of panic, she forced herself to calm down, surveying her surroundings while thinking about how to escape.

After all, in the face of absolute power, all skills are futile. Even if she knows some fancy moves, she cannot guarantee that she can subdue six people.

Shen Qinshou's eyes flashed with ruthlessness as she stared intently at her. "Heh, I originally intended to spare your life, but you are so disobedient and dare to compete with me for favor. You truly don't know your place."

Shen Zhizhi simply couldn't be bothered to listen to her nonsense.

Who wants to compete with her for favor?

If it weren't for this damn system, she would still be lying in her rented room, happily enjoying the air conditioning and playing games. She wouldn't have the time to engage in this tug-of-war with her.

Shen Zhizhi glanced up at Shen Qinshou's back, then turned to look at the six men in black behind her, and finally decided to find a breakthrough from Shen Qinshou.

If she knocks Shen Qinshou down and rushes forward, she will have a chance to escape.

Shen Qinshou sneered repeatedly, pressing closer step by step, completely unlike her usual frail appearance.

Shen Zhizhi stared at her quietly, then suddenly turned her head and exaggeratedly widened her eyes, saying, "Ah! Second Prince! What are you doing here!"

Shen Qinshou paused, her face turning pale instantly, and she turned her head to explain.

"Brother Qiu Chi, I—"

Ha! Now!

Shen Zhizhi twisted her hips at a certain angle and swung her thigh out like a long whip!

This powerful sweep knocked Shen Qinshou to the ground almost instantly.

Taking advantage of the moment when the six men in black were still in a daze, Shen Zhizhi took off running.

The man in black then realized what was happening and hurriedly stepped forward to help Shen Qinshou, who was clutching her abdomen and wailing in pain.

"Never mind me! You must catch her! I'll tear her to pieces!"

Shen Qinshou gritted her teeth, her eyes filled with hatred and rage that almost overwhelmed her.

Damn it! When did Shen Zhizhi become so skilled?!

A cold wind was blowing, the cold moon hung high in the sky, and in the quiet night, only the sound of running footsteps echoed loudly from the alley.

Shen Zhizhi suppressed her wildly beating heart and sprinted forward with all her might.

[Host! Hang in there! Don't get caught!]

YaDan watched the girl on the void screen, who was running until she was almost exhausted, with the same burning anxiety, but it was powerless to do anything about it.

"Seriously! What kind of idiot wrote this female lead?"

Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer behind her, Shen Zhizhi became so anxious that she started cursing.

Her strength was gradually failing, and just as she was about to resign herself to her fate and turn around to fight them, she realized that her strength was waning.

Just as I turned the corner, there was a house that was about to close its door.

With a glimmer of hope in her eyes, Shen Zhizhi moved nimbly, quickly blocking the closing door and darting inside.

The door slammed shut with a loud bang.

Suppressing her fear, she peeked through the crack in the door, making sure to apologize to the family she had just pushed away.

"I'm sorry, I'll be leaving soon. Someone is chasing me. I'm not a bad person. I'll hide for a bit and then leave."

"..." The person next to her did not reply, but neither did they tell her to leave.

The six people behind the door chased him to the corner but couldn't find him, and they became furious.

"Damn! They ran fast! You guys go check over there! The rest of you, come with me!"

As the footsteps of the six people gradually faded into the distance, Shen Zhizhi finally felt relieved.

Having narrowly escaped death, she could no longer suppress her fear. Her legs went weak and she collapsed to the ground, wiping her burning eyes. She stubbornly retorted, "Damn it, who's afraid of who? Let's fight one-on-one if you dare."

"puff."

A sneer came from beside her, and Shen Zhizhi was startled, looking in the direction of the sound.

That one glance was enough to freeze her in place, unable to move.
