Chapter 137 The Differences Between Travelers
Chapter 137 The Differences Between Travelers
Chu Xuan felt that the system's plans were rather unethical as they started with drug control, so she didn't really want to cooperate with it.
In particular, after learning that the purpose of the temple's existence was to resist foreign invasion and defend the homeland, Chu Xuan directly equated the people in the temple with the group of the cutest people, and was even more unwilling to go along with the system.
Chu Xuan even thought that since the Holy Lord in the temple was so powerful, she might as well sell the existence of the system to them in exchange for the Holy Lord's help in turning back time.
However, she quickly gave up the idea.
Because this world treats the mortal world so unfairly. Once it discovers that there are no cultivators in the mortal world, it will directly and forcibly snatch away all the spiritual energy and cultivation resources and supply them to the immortal world.
In this case, she naturally did not dare to expose the identity of the outsider. She still knew the priorities of the matter and could not gamble with the humanity of the people in the temple with the safety of her home planet.
Therefore, she has only been able to rely on procrastination all along, trying not to offend either side.
It was not until later, when Bai Yanlan returned, that she saw new hope.
I hope to be able to break free from the system's control like her; I hope to find a magical tool or technique that can reverse time through her channels...
However, after spending some time together, the two seemed to have become much closer, but she could still feel that Bai Yanlan was wary of her.
Moreover, these days, Bai Yanlan never asked, or even hinted, what the main task given to her by the system was.
It was as if...she already knew the purpose of the system very well.
"It's all this Sabi system's fault. It gave Bai Yanlan a very bad first impression. Otherwise, with our mutual connections, we should have been able to quickly build a closer relationship. It really is a rubbish system that only causes trouble."
If it really doesn't work, I can only find an opportunity to confess to Bai Yanlan.
When saints fight, a pony like her is not even qualified to be cannon fodder, so she must get away from this muddy water as soon as possible.
She did not have the talent like Bai Yanlan. Even though the system gave her a body that had already become an immortal and had very good bones, she could not understand those mysterious skills at all. They were real heavenly books.
She did not have the courage like Bai Yanlan. At least she did not dare to go to the battlefield of all races, let alone rush to the front and risk her life.
Chu Xuan knew very well that Bai Yanlan was able to have the treatment she has now because she was able to endure hardships, pain, and risk her life.
But even though she knew it, she really couldn't do it.
Before this, her biggest goal was to become a chef in a big hotel. Killing a few fish made her feel cold-blooded and heartless.
Not to mention the hard work of training, running 800 meters in school would take half her life, and she would want to take sick leave when she encountered military training.
Time travel can never change a person's destiny, and neither can the system.
If he wants to change his fate, it depends on whether he has the heart to do so.
Obviously, Chu Xuan is not one of those who is so cruel. What she wants is to sell the system in exchange for the artifact, then rescue her parents, and finally continue to be a chef with her ancestral skills that has been passed down for three generations.
"Oh, what a crappy system. With such a crappy teammate, when can I go home and reunite with my family?"
Every once in a while, Chu Xuan would seriously curse the system. This time, when she cursed for the fourth time, she heard the system jumping up and down:
[You were mumbling just now. Were you saying something bad about me? ]
"How can that be possible? I have placed all my hopes of returning home and reuniting with my family on the system." Chu Xuan quickly gathered all her messy thoughts and turned to ask the system: "Have you found any new opportunities?"
The system froze for a moment. It was actually because it couldn't stand Chu Xuan thinking about the little stall every day, which made its code so annoyed that it was about to go haywire, so it found an excuse to go out for some fresh air.
What new solutions can be found in such a short time?
It's so funny. It didn't even dare to get close to such a big guy for fear of being discovered.
But this could not be said directly, the system intelligence could only change the subject bluntly: [Host, can you be more ambitious? The entire Wanli Mizong is waiting for you to dominate, why are you only thinking about such a trivial matter as going home for a reunion? ]
As it spoke, the system directly called up a picture from Chu Xuan's past memories: [And I see that your childhood was not happy. ]
In the picture, little Chu Xuan was sitting at a greasy table in a small restaurant doing her homework. People were coming and going around her and it was very noisy. Some of the familiar customers would come up and tease her no matter what she was doing.
Sometimes the store is busy and Chu Xuan has to put down her pen to help serve dishes and greet customers.
In the system's view, this is not a suitable environment for human cubs to study. At least there needs to be a spacious, bright and quiet study room so that they can concentrate on studying.
The Chu family’s parents, who provided such an environment, naturally failed to fulfill their responsibilities as parents.
To sum up, the system concluded that there was nothing worth remembering about Chu Xuan’s childhood.
The person involved, Chu Xuan, just rolled her eyes secretly.
In fact, in her opinion, it was a happy thing that her parents did not leave her in her hometown but kept her with them.
However, there is no need to argue about these things with a system that does not understand human emotions.
Seeing that the host remained unmoved, the system called up another scene, which was a picture of Chu Xuan massaging her father's legs.
Her father lost one leg in a car accident. The prosthesis does not affect his daily movements, but standing in front of the table for a long time to cook will cause him unbearable pain after a long time.
So she specially learned a set of massage techniques and gave her father a massage every day, hoping that her father would feel a little better. However, she didn't persist for a few days, and her mother found an excuse to take over.
Chu Xuan looked longingly at the scene in her memory, which showed her smiling parents clearly. She couldn't understand what was wrong with this scene of a loving father and a filial son.
[According to the database, massage was the job of maids in ancient times or technicians in modern times.]
[Your father is obviously enslaving you. ]
"???" Chu Xuan was really confused at this moment: "Perhaps, let me know the meaning of the word filial piety?"
[You are being cpu'd, do you know that?] The system taught earnestly: [The word filial piety was created to restrict your thoughts.]
[In the eyes of the system, your overly high moral standards violate the law of survival of the fittest and have reached the point where they are affecting social progress? ]
Chu Xuan: “???”
This was the first time she had heard such remarks.
“Can you give me an example?”
[For example, your high moral sense makes you firmly resist human experiments. In fact, this is very detrimental to the progress of your medicine.]
"Hiss~" Chu Xuan took a breath of cold air after hearing this, and then quickly pointed to the sky and swore: "The stupid system's comments do not represent the author's views. If you want to curse the system, just curse it."
