Chapter 155 - System vs. System (V)
Chapter 155 - System vs. System (V)
Back to reality.
Chi Xiaochi has summarised the known information in a simple way.
The resurrection was not initiated by Duan Shujue, who, after all, was a gentleman and could not have imagined that the world would be so rich in biodiversity. Even before his death, he was far more confused and puzzled than he was hateful, so he failed to meet the system’s lower limit of entropy.
Five years after his death, Ye Jiming avenged his death by dying on a cliff, his hatred was so strong that his soul was captured by another Lord GOD who belonged to the same system as Lord GOD, but Ye Jiming did not want to come back alone, so he used a string of fish scales in his hand to send his soul to bring Duan Shujue back to life.
Another Lord GOD prepared a report based on Ye Jiming’s claim and submitted it to the watchdog.
The order went through a number of stages and ended up in the hands of a more specialised system, Slag Attack Recycling.
Lord GOD bargained with the monitoring system for a long time and finally agreed that Ye Jiming and Duan Shujue’s memories could be preserved while reverting to the world line, but only if the mission limit was raised, i.e. 200 points of remorse had to be obtained from Yan Jinhua before the host could leave the world.
This doubly inflated, glorious and fucked-up task falls, not surprisingly, on Chi Xiaochi’s shoulders.
Chi Xiaochi himself doesn’t believe that it’s not an inside job.
As for Chi Xiaochi, after observing Duan Shujue’s entire memory, I have thought and thought about it, but I can only give Yan Jinhua five “you’re so slutty.gif” emojis in a row to show my respect.
Chi Xiaochi cut straight to the chase: ” Is Yan Jinhua equipped with the book-piercing system a colleague of yours?”
061 replied, “Our whole system, which is responsible for about seventy big items, the scum attack recovery system is only one of them. There is a book-piercing business in it, but the main business of the undertaking is also to clear people’s wrongs and avenge them, not to renew the endings or take away their qi.”
Chi Xiaochi : “Is that the ‘revenge system’ that hosted Ye Jiming?”
061 : “Yes, that one is specifically for the book-dressing field.”
” Yan Jinhua’s book-dressing system, is it any good?”
”I tested it just now. But ……” 061 shook his head helplessly, “I can’t detect its presence.”
Chi Xiaochi raises an eyebrow slightly.
”Like me, it should have a tight defence mechanism, so I’ll probably only be able to catch and observe it if it sends a signal and is at a close range.” 061 said, “The downside is that, like me, I’m afraid it will be difficult to eliminate at source; the upside is that if I’m well hidden, it won’t detect me either.”
Chi Xiaochi nods, tapping a pebble at the bottom of the spring in his hand, secretly estimating the chips he and Yan Jinhua currently have.
It is clear that Yan Jinhua, as his name suggests, is a big pig of a man with zero shame and 1,000 cheeks, who probably needs a pile driver to drill through.
The odds are that if you want to make him regret it, you won’t be able to take the conventional path.
Chi Xiaochi fiddles with the pebbles while dutifully doing Duan Shujue’s daily waterfall practice.
Now, there is one more problem for them.
After all, it was not Duan Shujue’s idea to be reborn and Chi Xiaochi does not know what Duan Shujue has in mind.
After all, there are real buns in this world that are willingly eaten and spat out by dogs.
Chi Xiaochi sets down a pebble and asks, “What do you have in mind.”
”You were good for ten lifetimes and had eighty-one difficulties; he killed and set fire to the ground and became a Buddha. Can there be such a cheap thing in the world?”
”It doesn’t matter if you die again, consider it a good deed, if you can’t pooh-pooh yourself, you can still pooh-pooh Yan Jinhua and let him have another good time. But what about ‘him’? You have seen his story, and you know what ‘he’ will become when there is no one to restrain him. He’s going against the grain this time, and if it doesn’t work out, have you thought about what ‘he’ will look like then?”
”At that time, it is not Yan Jinhua who will take ‘him’, I am afraid it is the sky that will take ‘him’.”
Chi Xiaochi said everything that needed to be said and gave Duan Shujue the opportunity to choose.
Now it’s up to Duan Shujue to choose.
And soon, Duan Shujue had his answer.
He looked down, and above the various types of heterochromatic pebbles under the water, snow-white pebbles spelled out a line at the top.
Chi Xiaochi did not deliberately control his hands, but gave back the dominance of his body to Duan Shujue inside him.
Duan Shujue is a great spiritual talent, and before Yan Jinhua was used as a charger for the Sword in the Stone, he was a worthy and astonishing talent, though not quite on a par with Ji Zuoshan’s superior spiritual gifts, and cannot be talked to, but has enough freedom to dominate his body.
”Even if God wants him to die ……” Duan Shujue inside him posed his heart with a stone, “I want him to live.”
Chi Xiaochi smiled faintly, “Understood.”
Duan Shujue fiddled with the pebbles some more and greeted them gently, “Thank you.”
His shattered soul still remembers the five full years he spent with Ye Jiming.
True to his reputation as a self-effacing gentleman, even his promises were made with extraordinarily polite words.
Having almost finished Duan Shujue’s morning practice, Chi Xiaochi stood up and wrung out his damp black hair.
The ice water had already soaked all the clothes, the thin soft white clothes clung to the skin, and water dripped down the hem of the clothes and flowed into the spring.
He touched the small of his back.
There was a clear warmth and heat as the Dantian gathered flow, and this experience of suddenly upgrading to immortality was truly new.
Chi Xiaochi accosts 061 inside: “Mr. Six, Mr. Six.”
At that moment, all that was on 061’s mind was what Chi Xiaochi had said when he had just persuaded Duan Shujue.
”You know what Ye Jiming will become without constraints”.
…… Chi Xiaochi How could it be otherwise.
He refuses to accept it now, more or less because he is afraid that the changes he has made will not be acceptable to Lou Ying back then.
If you really ignore him, won’t you be pushing him out again?
His heart softened a few notches at the thought, “Hmm?”
Chi Xiaochi : “Guess what I’m thinking right now?”
061 A bit like stroking his head, “What?”
Chi Xiaochi said, “If you want to practise divine kung fu, you must first make your own womb.”
Duan Shujue : “……”
061 : “……” little ancestor, scaring people again.
While talking to 061, Chi Xiaochi had a thought.
Before he even realised what was happening, his body reacted first.
He stepped sideways, paddled on one foot and wrapped his arms across the black-clad boy who had fallen from the sky.
The boy’s body was cold and soft, and in his arms it was like lying on ice in snow.
Beneath his left eye are swastika-shaped black snake scales that have a strange laser-like quality in the shimmering water and daylight, with a beautiful gradation of light.
The teenager also had a face covered in water and was staring at Chi Xiaochi with a smile.
In this life, Ye Jiming had just left the mountain and had not yet chosen a place to settle, so he wandered around Jing Xufeng first, wondering where he would go in the future.
He had drunkenly eaten in a small bamboo grove and slept on his feet, and when he awoke at first he was in a cold sweat, as if he had had a long nightmare.
Ye Jiming was stunned for a long time before he slowly came to his senses, touched his throat and, overjoyed, rolled onto his back and ran straight back up the mountain, even leaving his shoes in the bamboo forest.
At this time, he was still a small snake viper, and had been nourished by spiritual energy for a long time, so his breath was pure.
He had swum all the way in from the water, and when he fell over the waterfall and was caught in his arms, he didn’t blush and reached out to put his arms around the neck of the person in front of him and laughed.
But after the original wild laughter was weakened into a juvenile voice, the domineering spirit was gone, and instead it seemed childish and cute: “Duan! You’ve kept me waiting!”
Chi Xiaochi politely introduced himself, “Hello, my surname is Chi, you can call me Chi.”
Ye Jiming : “……”
When he heard that this man was not Duan Shujue, Ye Jiming, startled and angry, leapt from his arms and stepped barefoot into the water: “Who are you? Why are you not restrained by Duan Shujue?”
Even though he had been informed of the content of the “treaty”, Ye Jiming had always believed that Duan Shujue’s cultivation could not be easily restrained by a mere “body snatcher”.
…… proved him very thoroughly wrong.
Ye Jiming’s face was dark and red, angry with himself for having given himself to an outsider for nothing, but also angry with this man for having taken over Duan Shujue’s body.
Chi Xiaochi was at ease, draining his hair and then wading to the cold spring, where he dried his wet clothes with his spiritual energy and put them back on again, piece by piece.
As he tied the white hairband around his high ponytail, Ye Jiming finally snapped out of it, stepped forward, grabbed Chi Xiaochi by the sleeve, and yelled, “Go!”
Chi Xiaochi looked at him, “Where to?”
Ye Jiming shouted, “Shut the hell up. I’m here to take him away, it’s none of your business.”
Chi Xiaochi smoothed the hair tie with one hand, “I’m not leaving.”
”Do you think his body is yours?” Ye Jiming was already so impatient that he could not even maintain his disguised black eyes, and his golden serpent pupils burst out with a stern aura, “It’s mine!”
When a normal person is faced with this man’s voice, even if they are not afraid, they are afraid that they will be a little bit weaker.
However, a 17 or 18 year old boy who puffs up and calls himself “my lord” is more like a beast with claws and teeth, not to mention the fact that when Chi Xiaochi was a child, someone in the silo used to make medicinal wine for his health and often brought back reptiles such as snakes and lizards.
When Chi Xiaochi sees the eyes of a snake, he thinks of a drugged snake soaked in a glass jar with a dead face, and his emotions are too serious to be tense.
Chi Xiaochi said calmly, “Yours, yours, all yours. But how are you going to get me to finish the job?”
”Isn’t that what you want Yan Jinhua to regret?” Ye Jiming snorted coldly, “I’ll tie him up day after day and bleed him, pry his nails, and peel his skin and bones! I don’t believe I can’t get you what you want!”
Chi Xiaochi admits that the proposal is quite constructive and he likes the punk style of doing it without BB.
But he said slowly, “Are you sure that this is the way Duan Shujue wants to go?”
At the mention of Duan Shujue, Ye Jiming is quite calm.
Although he is impulsive, he is not really a reckless man, especially when it is for the good of Duan Shujue, and he always thinks a few steps ahead.
In the short time he spent with that vengeful system, he knew he was a character in a book.
To be honest, when Ye Jiming found out about this, his first thought was to kill the author.
Where did the little fish wrong him to be played with like this?
However, Ye Jiming was dissuaded from doing so when he found out what the real fish in the book looked like.
The book has been abandoned left and right, so it’s up to each person to live as they see fit.
From the very beginning, Yan Jinhua was after Duan Shujue, wanting to take the qi of the small fish he raised and to use him to make a shark elixir that could protect his body, exorcise evil spirits, nourish his sword and bring about longevity.
Once Little Fish escaped, then all his subsequent plans would be ruined, and he could only stay here for the rest of his life as a fop and incompetent second senior brother, and everyone could sneer at him as a waste of talent.
How could the Yangs be willing to give up?
Once the little fish is taken away by himself, he only needs to use his so-called “system” to steal Jing Xufeng’s treasure, and then throw the sewage of the lost things on the little fish and his own head.
Moreover, the current Ye Jiming is not the same Black Jiao Demon Monarch who deliberately showed his weakness in order to gain a respite and cultivate against the odds, but he spends his days fooling around, playing in the landscape, and his greatest pleasure is biting into immortal fruits to feed the fish.
Was he going to let the little fish protect himself?
The more Ye Jiming thought about it, the more furious he became. He didn’t want the little fish to stay with the old bastard named Yan Jinhua, and he hated himself for his incompetence.
At that moment, a familiar footstep came from outside the forest.
Ye Jiming had just found the outlet for his anger and was about to go up and bite the man to death when Chi Xiaochi saw what he was trying to do and pointed a finger at the right side of his abdomen.
Ye Jiming’s eyes snapped open, and before an expletive could be uttered, he went limp, covering the small of his back.
…… he son of a bitch how dare he touch his seventh inch!!!
Ye Jiming’s body was as limp as mud after his seventh inch was thwarted, and under Chi Xiaochi’s watchful eye, he reluctantly transformed into a small black snake and burrowed into his sleeve.
Ye Jiming was so aggrieved that he bit into Duan Shujue’s cuff with his teeth and tore it with such force that it was immediately torn with a loud crack.
Satisfied with the damage he’s done, and a little calmer, he swims his tail deeper into the cuffs and wraps it around Duan Shujue’s waist through the lining, circling and coiling.
The seven inches were still vaguely numb and Ye Jiming was so angry that he just spun around and cursed.
And 061 quietly nibbled with Chi Xiaochi: “Did you just …… not move?”
Chi Xiaochi ran a wooden comb through Duan Shujue’s long hair: “It really wasn’t me just now.”
As he said this, he tilted his head slightly and smiled at the water, overlapping the image of the cool and beautiful Duan Shujue that everyone had in their minds.
When Yan Jinhua returned, he found his young shark sitting on the shore with her back to him, brushing her hair against the water, and was quite amused.
How exciting is it to think that this is a once great protagonist who is now waiting for him to come home like the pet dog he keeps?
Yan Jinhua was in a very good mood when he went to look for his baby dragon, but it was nowhere to be found.
He just thought it was the little black snake being naughty and didn’t look for it, and went back to wash his hands in front of the fishing pond.
Duan Shujue saw him and nodded to him gently and humbly, “Brother Yan.”
Yan Jinhua shakes his hand and deliberately sprinkles water droplets on Duan Shujue’s face, “Where’s the little black snake?”
Ye Jiming hovers around Duan Shujue’s waist, exasperated and spitting out his tongue: here’s your grandfather.
Chi Xiaochi wiped her face lightly and said to 061 in her mind, “Too bad you can’t swear.”
The ever-gentlemanly 061 is genuinely beginning to feel sorry for Chi Xiaochi.
Luckily, he kept his manners intact and replied with Duan Shujue-style humility, “I guess he’s gone.”
”…… gone?!”
Even the gentlest words could not erase Yan Jinhua’s shock at the news and he jumped up from the spring: “What? When did you leave? Why did you leave?”
”He’s a bit wild by nature.” Chi Xiaochi looked at him gently, “Brother Yan, people have their own wishes, so don’t force them.”
Yan Jinhua was dumbfounded.
After saving the little black snake, he thought that he would become a dragon in the future, so he dared not be negligent and gave up his blood money, specially taking the fruits from the spatial spiritual spring to the little black snake to eat.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market.
Yan Jinhua was distraught, but could only console himself.
One is a future elixir to be refined, and the other is one’s future junior, the stronger they are, the more benefits one can take, which is considered a long-term investment and putting in a long line to catch a big fish.
Who would have thought that this little black snake would just pat itself on the back and leave without even a word of thanks?
Yan Jinhua was really upset about the wasted fruit, but didn’t dare to break his persona in front of Duan Shujue at this point, so he just muttered, “That’s a bit unconscionable.”
At the sound of the words, 061 his ears twitched.
At close range, he faintly heard a strange mechanical sound.
”Drip, attention hosts, attention hosts! The original host, Duan Shujue, has an abnormal favorability value for you! The amount has returned to zero, a re-check is being requested, please do not panic-“
