"Get lost! You dare come to the gambling den without any money? Damn it, what bad luck to run into such a penniless bastard today!"

A woman dressed in tattered clothes was dragged out of the gambling den by several burly men and thrown onto the road.

"Hiss~"

Feeling a dull ache in her body, Lin Xue slowly opened her eyes and saw that she was lying on a busy street.

A foul, rancid smell wafted into my nostrils, and all around me were indifferent pedestrians of all kinds.

Only a few people would glance at her curiously; most people would walk past her without batting an eye.

"system!"

Fortunately, Lin Xue's soul had already completely crossed over, so she immediately got up from the ground and randomly chose a direction to walk forward.

"bite!"

"Host, things are not looking good. The time we've come to is really bad!"

"Host, you've gone the wrong way! Turn around and go back right now!"

Since the storyline hasn't started transmitting yet, neither Lin Xue nor 629 knows what the mission of this world is.

However, 629 probably knows a little more than Lin Xue, but only a tiny bit.

"Let's find a quiet place to transfer the plot first, and besides, I'm really looking quite disheveled!"

Lin Xue endured the lingering sour smell emanating from her body, resisted the urge to vomit, and walked quickly forward.

"Host, although I don't know the plot of this world's mission yet, I suggest you go home and check it out first!"

"After scanning by this system, it was discovered that the host has family members, especially her daughter who is about to die. If the host cannot get back to treat her within 10 minutes, the little girl will be beyond saving!"

Although 629 knew Lin Xue's eagerness to know the world's plot, based on its scan, it felt that the plot could be transmitted later, but the matter of saving people could not be delayed.

"Since the situation is so critical, what are you waiting for? Lead the way!"

Lin Xue arrived with the strength of the peak of the third level of Qi Refining, and she had already repaired the minor injuries on her body with her spiritual power.

Although Lin Xue was still disheveled, she was walking very fast.

"Knock knock knock, open the door!"

Guided by 629, Lin Xue quickly found a small courtyard and patted the gate.

"Squeak..."

"Why are you only coming back now? My sister is dying! Did you go out gambling again? Did you squander all the money Dad gave us for her medical treatment? Waaah..."

The boy who opened the door was about 10 years old. He was incredibly thin, and a faded undershirt was loosely draped over his body.

His pants were also too short. If 629 hadn't said that this was her son, Lin Xue would have thought he was some kind of little beggar.

"Let's go in first and talk!"

Because she hadn't yet received the plot, Lin Xue hadn't accepted the original owner's emotions either. She calmly walked around the little boy and headed into the house.

Soon they arrived at a small, dark room, which contained two dilapidated wooden beds.

On one of the wooden beds lay a little girl who was emaciated and barely breathing; she was on the verge of dying.

With her back to the little boy, Lin Xue took out a bag of rice weighing one pound from her bosom.

"Take this and cook some rice porridge. Remember to make it thick!"

The little boy held the bag of rice that had been stuffed into his arms, opened the bag, and glanced at the white rice inside, which made his pupils shrink.

"I'll go right away. Even though you didn't bring back the medicine, with this rice, my sister will definitely come back to life!"

The little boy looked at Lin Xue with mixed feelings. The money his father gave his mother that morning couldn't buy such good rice at all.

I don't know where his mother got this rice from, but it's much whiter and cleaner than the rice sold in the market.

After the little boy left, Lin Xue immediately began to treat the little girl.

Fortunately, there were silver needles in the space, so she directly gave the little girl a revival needle.

Then he scooped out half a ladle of spiritual spring water from his spatial storage and picked up the little girl, feeding her little by little.

This spiritual spring water was more effective than any elixir, and combined with her acupuncture, the little girl quickly regained consciousness.

"Mother?"

Finding herself nestled in a warm embrace, the little girl blinked hard to make sure the person in front of her was indeed her mother.

"Hmm, are you feeling any better?"

"Your brother has already gone to cook rice porridge. In a little while, we'll be able to drink this fragrant rice porridge. So baby, you must be strong and try not to fall asleep!"

Lin Xue held the little girl in her arms and swayed her gently, then lightly stroked her forehead.

The two of them smelled really bad, almost as bad as a garbage can, which made Lin Xue not want to talk much.

But seeing how weak the little girl was, she still offered a few words of comfort in a gentle voice.

"Little sister, the rice porridge is ready. I'll serve it to you right away!"

As soon as the rice porridge was cooked, the little boy rushed into the house. He saw Lin Xue holding the little girl and comforting her. The little girl in Lin Xue's arms was no longer as unconscious as before, and the little boy's heart finally relaxed.

"Brother, where do we get rice to make porridge?"

The little girl looked to be about seven or eight years old. Lin Xue didn't judge by her appearance, but by observing her bones and estimating her age based on bone age.

Judging by her appearance alone, this little girl looks to be at most five or six years old.

"It was brought back by Mom. Where it came from isn't important. The important thing is that you need to eat something quickly. You've been starving for days. If you don't eat something soon, you might faint again!"

After the little boy finished speaking, he went to the kitchen and soon brought back a bowl of thick rice porridge. He carefully carried the porridge while gently scooping it up with a spoon and blowing on it to cool it down.

"You feed your sister, I'll go boil some water!"

Seeing that she was no longer needed here, Lin Xue put the little girl on the edge of the bed and let the little boy feed her.

"Okay, I left you a bowl in the pot. Go eat first!"

Lin Xue had just gotten up and was walking outside when she heard the little boy's words.

She paused, stunned. The courtyard wasn't large, and every move inside was within her perception. She had already noticed that the little boy had only cooked a handful of rice.

There were only two bowls of cooked rice porridge in total, but unexpectedly, the little boy let her eat the bowl in the pot.

The little boy's stomach was so full of hunger that it was practically stuck to his intestines, and even normal gastrointestinal motility had stopped.

I just saw the little boy scoop a large ladle of water from the vat and drink it down, and his stomach was still flat!
