A modern wealthy young woman, Luo Jingyan, accidentally transmigrated to the 1970s, becoming a short-lived minor supporting character in a period novel. Her parents were framed, forcing her to take...
That night, while everyone else in the Liu family was asleep, Li Hongying secretly slipped into the grain storage area, filled a bag with about three jin of fine grain, and quietly left the house.
It was already past ten o'clock at night. It was freezing cold in winter, and there was not much entertainment in the countryside at night, so almost everyone in the village had already gone to bed. Standing on the street, she looked around and saw that all the houses on both sides of the road had turned off their lights, and it was pitch black everywhere.
This was the first time Li Hongying had gone out in the middle of the night since she was sent to the countryside. She walked forward cautiously.
As she approached the cowshed, through her extremely faint vision, she saw what appeared to be a person standing ahead of her on the road. Startled, she instinctively took a few steps back, fearing that she had encountered a ghost in the middle of the night.
In the past, having been influenced by the new society and new ideas, she did not believe in ghosts and gods. However, because she had the experience of living again, she became a firm believer in these things.
But she couldn't rule out the possibility that the person standing in front of her was a human. She stood still and tentatively asked the figure, "Excuse me, who are you, the one in front of me?" A human or a ghost?
She stared intently at the person, and as her vision gradually adjusted to the darkness, she realized that the person had short hair, was wearing a Zhongshan suit, and was a man. However, the person's back was turned to her, so she could not see his face.
The cowshed was located in the northern part of the village, and there were almost no other houses outside the cowshed. When Luo Jingyan heard Li Hongying ask her a question, she subconsciously curled her lips, but did not turn around and remained standing in the same position.
She switched to a male voice and asked Li Hongying in a deep voice, "What are you doing out here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping at home?"
Li Hongying retorted, "In the middle of the night, you're standing here by yourself. Tell me, are you a human or a ghost?"
"Ma'am, don't talk nonsense. This is a new society now, and we don't allow feudal superstitions. You're talking as if you've seen a ghost."
"So you're human." Li Hongying was no longer so scared.
Luo Jingyan hummed in agreement and said leisurely, "It's true that I'm human, but I died once before. After I died, I came back to life and inexplicably ended up here. Isn't that amazing?"
Upon hearing her words, Li Hongying felt as if she had found someone who shared her fate, and was filled with endless emotions.
"So you're someone who's died and come back to life too."
"Hearing you say that, you must be the same. No wonder I sensed the same aura in you."
Luo Jingyan stroked her non-existent mustache; she was about to confirm her guess.
Li Hongying nodded: "That's right, I died once and then came back to life."
"Did you travel from another time?" Luo Jingyan asked her.
"Time travel?" Li Hongying asked in confusion. "I didn't time travel. I'm from this world. You must have time traveled."
Li Hongying knew that Zhuang Feifei in the book was a time traveler. Could there be other time travelers besides Zhuang Feifei?
Does this time traveler also possess a spatial dimension?
She immediately activated the system within her body and asked it a question.
Could you check if this person has any spatial abilities?
If so, she would have another target to plunder.
The system said: [The only information we've received so far is that the female lead, Zhuang Feifei, possesses a spatial dimension. This information has already been input into the main system. Only after you obtain the female lead's system can I help you explore the existence of other spatial dimensions.]
"Alright then." Li Hongying said, somewhat dejected.
Luo Jingyan said, "I didn't time travel, but I know there are time travelers in this world. I, like you, am a reincarnated person."
"Oh, so what we're going through is called rebirth."
"yes."
Luo Jingyan smiled slightly; Li Hongying seemed to trust her quite a bit.
Li Hongying herself had a system, so she guessed that the person in front of her might also have one.
If this person also had a plundering system, they would definitely compete with her for the space in the female lead's body. So, she asked, "Since you were reborn, then God must have given you a system when you were reborn, right?"
Luo Jingyan raised an eyebrow. Li Hongying must have a system, otherwise she wouldn't have asked that question. So what kind of system is it?
"When I was reborn, the Heavenly Dao allowed me to choose a system myself; he would give me whichever one I wanted. However, there were just too many types of systems, which dazzled me, and I didn't know which one to choose. Also, he let me choose a personal space, which would be bound to my body and at my disposal. But the types and functions of those spaces were also very diverse; some could teleport, and some contained ready-made living supplies. Sigh, I felt that both the systems and the spaces were excellent, and I wanted them both. But the Heavenly Dao told me that I could only choose one. I was torn and couldn't decide which one to choose; it was too troublesome."
Li Hongying was furious when she heard this. Heaven had given this person so many opportunities to choose between systems and spaces, but only gave her a predetermined system, leaving her with no chance to choose.
Heaven has been so unfair to her!
If Heaven could directly grant her space and resources, she wouldn't need to go through the trouble of plundering other people's space.
But then she had an idea: if the person in front of her had a spatial ability, she could just take it from him later.
So she suggested to the man, "I think you should choose a space." Whether it's a space with supplies or a space with special abilities, it's what she needs.
"Why?" Luo Jingyan asked, "Why did you suggest I choose the space instead of the system?"
"Because I think space can store a lot of things, which is very convenient. This place is very poor and lacks supplies. If you choose a space that contains supplies, you can even solve the problem of lacking supplies."
Luo Jingyan pondered her words. Li Hongying didn't have any space of her own, yet she was encouraging her to accept it. What was her purpose?
“Fellow Daoist, space has its advantages, but I think having a system is also good.”
"Of course, a system isn't as good as a physical space. A physical space can be used directly, but a system has to take it away from the physical space..."
Li Hongying realized something at this point and immediately shut up.
She couldn't reveal her trump card to this person, otherwise she wouldn't be able to take over the space within him in the future.
"You just said the system also wants to seize the void, what void?" Luo Jingyan could roughly guess what she meant next.
