Chapter 322
There is no such thing as easy success without hard work.
This was the principle that Shen Wuyong taught her.
Shen Jiao tried to sink her mind into her spiritual realm, but failed. Instead, she was trapped in a very strange situation. She saw some tree roots wrapped around Shen Yinyin's body, and vines grew on her body, tentatively and cautiously reaching out towards the thin tendrils on the tree roots.
Shen Jiao held his breath and concentrated, watching as the vine was about to catch a thin tendril, when Shen Yinyin suddenly turned around.
"What's wrong?!" Shen Jiao and the vine were startled and froze immediately.
Shen Yinyin yawned: "I'm going to take a nap. Call me if you need anything."
Shen Jiao said as if nothing had happened: "Okay, go to sleep."
This was just a casual remark. If there really was something, she would be able to hear it without anyone calling her.
However, Shen Yinyin was still very satisfied with Shen Jiao's attitude. It was like feeding a dog. Although she didn't want anything, if the dog dared to show its teeth at her after eating the meat buns, then there was no need to pay any more attention to it. The serious thing to do was to find a way to get rid of it.
Shen Yinyin was still somewhat alert and closed his eyes and fell asleep.
After a while, Shen Jiao also lay down. This action made Shen Yinyin relax a little bit, and even the fine whiskers on the tree roots stopped flying around.
The thin and pitiful vine first carefully touched a tendril that it had already chosen, and seeing that it had no reaction, it wrapped around it again, sticking and touching it.
Those who didn't know would think they had a very good relationship. Just when Xixu didn't resist at all, Shen Jiao felt a warm current flowing into his spiritual center.
It feels like rain after a long drought, or like a furnace in cold weather.
Shen Jiao knew she had succeeded without anyone telling her. All the things she stole were good things, but she was not proud or complacent. She still maintained a humble and cautious heart, absorbing more and more bit by bit.
He was also keeping an eye on Shen Yinyin's movements, fearing that she would notice something and suddenly wake up. Fortunately, she didn't. She seemed to be sleeping uneasy, but fortunately she was still sleeping.
Shen Jiao was busy until she woke up, and was still busy. Shen Yinyin sat there with a frown, looking unhappy.
Shen Jiao asked hypocritically, "What's wrong, big sister?"
Shen Yinyin waved her hand: "Nothing, I just had a dream. It seemed like I lost something and I've been looking for it..."
Shen Jiao's heart skipped a beat, and she asked, confused, "Lost something? What did you lose?"
"Who knows? It doesn't seem to be anything very valuable. It's just that the thief in the dream was so rampant and annoying." Shen Yinyin frowned. She didn't say that the thief looked a bit like Shen Jiao, but just said, "Maybe you think about it during the day and dream about it at night."
Before going to bed, she talked about her experience of stealing from the spring, but in her dream she caught the thief. It was quite ironic to think about it.
Shen Yinyin was a little thirsty and took out a pot of water. He drank half of it and asked Shen Jiao, "Do you want some?"
She was such a nice person. Shen Jiao took it silently and said, "Thank you."
"You're being polite, we're all just fellow players, we're all family."
Shen Yinyin didn't take it seriously.
Shen Jiao, having heard a new word, tried to trick him into thinking, "They say they're players, but they're actually not that interesting."
"Who says it's not? It's better than dying. If I hadn't been chosen by the system, I wouldn't even have the chance to play. By the way, how did you die? I was hit by a car."
Shen Jiao said: "I am poor."
Only when she started to steal Shen Yinyin did she realize how poor she was. If she were a player, she would have probably died of poverty in her previous life.
Shen Yinyin: "You...are you so poor that you're taking such a risk?"
Did she rob a bank?
"About the same."
I'm stealing it.
Shen Yinyin raised her thumbs up: "I admire you."
This is not the way for ordinary people to die.
Shen Jiao: What's there to admire about this? Aren't there so many thieves in this world?
Shen Jiao couldn't figure out what she was thinking, and she suddenly started burping.
Geese, geese, geese.
As if it was full, the vines retracted contentedly, rubbed her face, and then disappeared from her sight. Only then did Shen Jiao feel tired.
Her hands and feet were so sore that she didn't want to move. Seeing that Shen Yinyin didn't pay attention to her, Shen Jiao closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, sinking her mind into her spiritual realm. At this time, her barren spiritual realm had changed a lot.
There are pots and pans everywhere around the cherry tree... I don't know what the vine was thinking, it even stole the lantern with the word "Fu" on it.
Shen Jiao picked up a plate of steaming dumplings and took a look at it.
What? Chinese New Year?
What's even more outrageous is that there is a bed, a wardrobe, a dressing table... Judging from their placement, it must have emptied the house and even the flower stands were not spared. The pots of flowers on the stands are in full bloom and look quite beautiful.
But she had to ask—what's the use? What's the use!
After going through so much trouble and taking such a big risk, you might as well steal something valuable!
Perhaps her heart moved as she pleased, and the next moment Shen Jiao saw something valuable. There were several granaries in front of her, enough for her to eat for a lifetime.
Shen Jiao: ...
So I'm such a contented person? Besides pots and pans, my heart is filled with wheat and rice.
Oh, there is a big millstone not far away.
No wonder you are burping. With so much food, anyone would feel full after seeing it.
Lingtai probably wanted to show off to her, so he showed her a warehouse full of salted fish and bacon...
Okay, these are all good things, but how can they help her in her dying plight?
Could it be possible that she could take out a huge salted fish and smash Shen Yinyin to death?
The cool breeze in the spiritual platform suddenly stopped.
The sky was overcast and a light drizzle began to fall. To be exact, the sky above Shen Jiao's head was overcast. A dark cloud piled up above her head, and she got soaked wherever she walked.
Can’t you say it’s not good?
Shen Jiao ran away decisively, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Shen Yinyin standing on tiptoe and looking out the door.
She asked, "What are you looking at, big sister?"
"Nothing, just looking around."
The more she looked at it, the more uneasy she felt. There wasn't even a blade of grass here. Was this really done for the people at Xuanhu Hall to see?
Shen Yinyin felt that this was a sign of wariness towards her.
There was also a smell outside that the plants and trees disliked.
Shen Jiao said "Oh," closed his eyes and took a nap. When he woke up, he continued to steal. He was busy like this for two or three days. Shen Yinyin, who couldn't conjure up any food, finally realized something was wrong.
When Shen Jiao woke up that day, he saw her sitting by the bed with a gloomy face, as if someone owed her money and the debt was cleared without waiting to be paid.
Shen Jiao asked tentatively: "Big sister? What's wrong with you?"
Shen Yinyin looked at her sharply: "Nothing, I just met a thief."
"Are you dreaming again?" Shen Jiao looked confused and comforted him, "Dreams are not something you can take seriously."
"That wasn't a dream. I really lost something."
Shen Yinyin said in a somewhat cold tone.
Shen Jiao looked around, the cell in full view: "You... lost something here?"
There were only two words on her face - disbelief.
"Big sister, are you...still not awake?"
Shen Jiao's expression seemed more like she was asking her: Are you crazy?
