Chapter 73 Will she hate him?

He suppressed the anger and jealousy in his heart and said, "Don't be afraid, Sister Li, I will stay with you."

As long as he can bear with it a little longer, and wait for them all to leave the game, Sister Xiaoli will be his alone!

Zhen Jinli thought Si Yao was just being polite, or just pretending to comfort her, so she waved her hand.

"No need, leave with Brother Su and the others as soon as possible. Your cards can save more players. You don't need to stay with me."

Besides, even if he stays with me, how long can he stay with me?

Sooner or later he will have to return to the real world.

When it was time to say goodbye, Su Yan insisted on watching Si Yao leave the game first.

Si Yao had no choice but to dip eucalyptus leaves in pure water and sprinkle it on the players.

After a long time, the NPC didn't wake up.

Si Yao pretended to be helpless and spread his hands, saying: "It seems that I have been targeted in this round of games."

"Let me try."

Su Yan felt a little strange, so he took the eucalyptus leaves from Si Yao's hand, dipped them in the pure water, then injected supernatural powers into them and sprinkled them on the sleeping NPC.

A white light flashed, and the sleeping NPC quickly woke up.

A blue data light gradually appeared on Su Yan's body, and the next second he disappeared in front of everyone.

Chen Ji suddenly looked at Si Yao with some suspicion. It was understandable that Zhen Jinli was targeted by the game, but why was Si Yao also targeted by the game?

He took another eucalyptus leaf and handed it to Si Yaodao.

"Try again."

Si Yao tried again, and the result was the same as last time. He couldn't wake up the NPC at all.

Seeing that Chen Ji looked at him with an increasingly strange expression, Si Yao explained, "Maybe it's because the card item I got is too amazing, and now even the game won't let me leave."

Indeed, Si Yao’s item card “Song of the Siren” is really a big bug in the game system. After getting such a heaven-defying item, there might be some side effects.

"Since I can't leave the game anymore, I'll stay and accompany Sister Xiaoli."

In order to improve his credibility, Si Yao began to explain the benefits of his staying in the game to Zhen Jinli.

"Maybe one day Sister Li will learn magic, and I can help her create pure water and send her out of the game."

What Si Yao said made some sense. Although it was not known whether Zhen Jinli still had the chance to leave the game, with Si Yao around, he could at least help create pure water.

Chen Ji reluctantly let go of Zhen Jinli's hand, picked up a eucalyptus leaf, dipped it in pure water, and sprinkled it on the sleeping NPC.

Sure enough, he successfully awakened an NPC and left the game.

It seems that she is not the only one who cannot leave the game in the end, even Si Yao cannot leave.

Zhen Jinli looked Si Yao up and down and sighed silently in her heart.

Unexpectedly, the person who stayed with her in the end would be Si Yao.

It's not the eucalyptus leaves, and it's not the water.

It seems to be a people problem.

Zhen Jinli took Si Yao to find the witch Sadie and asked her to help see if there was anything abnormal about Si Yao's supernatural powers.

After checking Si Yao's strength, Sadie said calmly.

"There's nothing wrong with his strength."

Zhen Jinli looked at Si Yao strangely: "Are you really being targeted by the game too?"

It seems that this is the only explanation.

Si Yao didn't look depressed at all, but said it happily.

"Well, it looks like I can stay with Sister Xiaoli in this round of the game."

Zhen Jinli looked at him speechlessly and asked, "Are you so happy?"

Those who knew that he was forced to stay in the game, while those who didn’t thought he had gone home.

Si Yao said as a matter of course: "Of course I'm happy to be able to stay here with Sister Xiaoli."

From now on, it will be their own world, and no one can stop them from being together.

Si Yao looked at Zhen Jinli's charming and beautiful profile, and felt uneasy.

If one day she knew that she was forced to stay away from her friends and family in the real world because of him, would she hate him?

Forget it, he wouldn't give her the chance to know.

He would find a way to make her fall in love with him and stay in this world with him peacefully.

Only in this way can Lan Ze not kill her.

He can save her life.

***

Zhen Jinli’s inner thoughts at this moment: Emm, I don’t understand.

In such a backward place, there is no Internet, no computers, no movies or TV series.

There's not even electricity, how can he be happy?

I can only say that Si Yao is really carefree.

Since Zhen Jinli had promised the witch Sati to help her resolve the conflict with the villagers, she stayed with the witch Sati for the time being.

In the following days, she took Si Yao, under the name of Lady Naxue, to persuade the villagers to insist on using soap to clean their bodies, which could prevent most diseases.

The villagers all regarded the soap as a gift from the "Goddess Naxue" until later, when Zhen Jinli told everyone that the soap they were using was made by the witch Sati.

Everyone was a little bit unconvinced at first, but they all saw the cleaning effect of the soap.

Keeping your body clean does help maintain good health and reduce the occurrence of many diseases.

The witch Sadie was no longer seen as a symbol of evil, but became a benefactor to the villagers.

Seeing that the conflicts between the witches and the people were almost resolved, Zhen Jinli made a request.

"Sati, I hope you can help wake up the people in the castle, that is, the king and queen."

Sati was a little surprised by Zhen Jinli's request, because she was the only person in the world who knew that she was not the real Goddess Naxue.

"Why? It's because the king is incompetent in ruling, so he has passed the epidemic of disease and social conflicts onto me."

"It would be a pity for such a foolish king to remain asleep forever."

Sati coaxed him, "If you are willing, you will be the uncrowned king of this country, because you have become the faith of the villagers. Isn't this better?"

Zhen Jinli shook his head and said, "The king and his men are also limited by the times. In order to ensure the stability of their rule, they have no choice but to divert social conflicts."

After all, in this real era, soap has not yet been invented.

"If the king and officials don't wake up, this country will face governance problems over time," Zhen Jinli explained.

"Laws, judicial systems, and executive bodies—these state machines that maintain the smooth functioning of society—cannot be created by Si Yao and I alone."

"To maintain the stable operation of a society, we cannot rely on faith, nor can we expect one or two people to do it well. We must mobilize the machinery of the state."

"So, Sadie the Witch."

Zhen Jinli looked at her earnestly and said, "I sincerely ask you to wake up the people in the castle."
