After seeing Shangguan Wei'er off, Yan Wan returned to Ji Mohan's tent. Ji Mohan was no longer in the tent; he had gone with Ji Mosheng to survey the surrounding terrain long ago. The silent smoke of war had already risen in Huangzhou, and the real start of the war was only a matter of time.
Beep beep beep beep, an electronic voice rang in Yan Wan's mind, followed by the system's electronic voice, "Congratulations, host, mission complete."
Yan Wan felt a little happy. Great, she was one step closer to success.
"Host, would you like to draw the reward now or later?" the system's cute voice asked.
After thinking for a moment, Yan Wan decided to ask the system what the specific task was this time, and how she had completed it in such a muddled way. She had a feeling that it was not real.
"System, wait, I have a few questions that I need your help to answer," Yan Wan's soft voice rang out.
"Okay, host, please speak," the system replied.
"Um, let me ask you why you don't appear no matter how I call you once I enter Huangzhou or even the illusion array?" Yan Wan asked with some doubt. This was really too strange.
"Host, as soon as you entered Huangzhou, I was controlled by another force and forced into hibernation," the system truthfully informed me.
"Another power? Could it be that there are other people in this world who also possess the system?" Yan Wan's heart tightened; things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
"Host, it shouldn't be. I haven't sensed any other systems." The system said confidently. It was already an advanced system. If other systems existed, it would definitely have detected them. But it hadn't detected any other systems, which meant that external forces had forced it into hibernation.
Yan Wan believed the system's words. After all, it was the main system's child and had this much ability. She then asked, "So what do you think forced you into hibernation? Was it plot power?"
The system performed big data calculations and presented the final result, saying: "Host, according to cloud computing, Ji Mo'an is the most suspicious. He may have obtained something, or perhaps he has deviated from the plot, making it impossible for me to detect any information about him. Therefore, the system will be forced to hibernate when facing him."
"So, the problem still lies with Ji Mo'an. Just how many secrets is he hiding?" Yan Wan asked with some interest.
Yan Wan didn't dwell on what she couldn't understand. She knew she'd have plenty of opportunities to face Ji Mo'an in the future, and perhaps her doubts would be resolved then. Suddenly, Yan Wan remembered her mission and asked, "Oh, right, system, what exactly was my mission this time? How did I complete it so inexplicably?"
Actually, Yan Wan was a little uneasy about the vague task of "It's hard to meet and hard to part, the east wind is powerless and the flowers are withered". She didn't know the meaning behind the poem or who it referred to.
"Host, there were two tasks this time. First, help Gongsun Gua eliminate his obsession. Second, uncover the secret within the Buddha Cave. Congratulations, host, you've completed both." The system said excitedly. It had thought the second task would be difficult, but its host was incredibly intelligent and observant, and had actually succeeded.
"The secret of the Buddha cave, do you mean the names engraved under the Buddhist scriptures?" Yan Wan asked.
“Yes, host,” the system replied.
It is said that longing is silent, but Gongsun Gua's longing is resounding in every stroke. His longing is selfishness under the sway of worldly etiquette and favoritism behind ethics and morality.
Yan Wan nodded and sighed, "If it weren't for Xu Huai, the two of them would have been an enviable couple. The most talented and unconventional woman and the aloof Buddhist monk. It's truly a cruel twist of fate."
"System, I want to draw a prize." Yan Wan paused and said. She had to draw the Life-Changing Talisman as soon as possible. No matter what, she had to save Ji Mohan.
"Okay, host, please press and hold the start button in the middle, and the system will automatically draw a lottery for you."
Yan Wan raised her hand and tapped the word "Start," and the giant turntable began to spin rapidly.
She was very nervous. "God, please, please bless me so that I can draw the talisman that changes my fate!"
As the pointer slowly came to a stop, Yan Wan lowered her head and closed her eyes tightly, seemingly terrified of the outcome.
"Host, the lottery draw is complete. Please claim your reward," the system's voice announced.
Yan Wan took a few deep breaths, raised her head and slowly opened her eyes. When she saw the three large, golden characters, Yan Wan couldn't help but want to cry.
A life-changing talisman! A life-changing talisman! This is wonderful! She's finally going to draw one! Heaven is still kind to her, Yan Wan thought.
"Claim your reward," Yan Wan said happily. The three large characters in front of her slowly transformed into a talisman, which gently floated down from the sky until it landed in Yan Wan's hand.
"Congratulations, host, your wish has come true." The system's voice was also somewhat happy; it was genuinely happy for Yan Wan.
"This is wonderful." Yan Wan murmured to herself, looking at the talisman in her hand. She could finally save Ji Mohan. Looking at the life-saving talisman in her hand, Yan Wan suddenly burst into laughter, and as she laughed, tears streamed down her face.
Yan Wan gripped the life-saving talisman tightly in her hand, her eyes gleaming with hope. This time, her Ji Mohan could finally live to be a hundred years old.
Ji Mohan is the best person in the world, and he will always be Yan Wan's favorite and her own.
"Host, the system is logging off." The system said to Yan Wan, who was both crying and laughing. It decided to leave space for the host so she could be alone for a while.
Yan Wan stared blankly at the thin talisman in her hand. She raised her hand to wipe away her tears. This time, she was determined to defy fate for Ji Mohan. The world had treated him unfairly, and she was determined to fight for fairness for him.
She should now make arrangements for everything that follows. She has already drawn the life-changing talisman, which means that her time to leave is approaching.
At this moment, the tent flap opened from the outside, and Ji Mohan, clad in armor, walked in. Yan Wan hurriedly hid the talisman behind her back and placed it in her spatial storage.
As soon as Ji Mohan entered the room, he saw Yan Wan sitting on the ground. He gently squatted down in front of Yan Wan, looked at her slightly red eyes, and asked, "Why are you crying?"
Yan Wan looked at Ji Mohan, whose face was full of worry, and said with a smile, "I'm a little reluctant to see Wei'er leave." She only gave one reason, so that she wouldn't be lying to him.
Ji Mohan breathed a sigh of relief, gently raised his hand to wipe away the tears from Yan Wan's eyes, and said, "After I finish dealing with what's happening now, I'll take you to Lingnan to find her. You can stay as long as you want then." Ji Mohan thought that Yan Wan was truly reluctant to part with Shangguan Wei'er, so he comforted her.
“Li Shang went with her too. If I leave like Wei’er, will you look for me?” Yan Wan asked tentatively.
"I won't let you leave. You have to stay by my side forever." Ji Mohan said earnestly, looking into Yan Wan's eyes. He couldn't imagine what he would become if Yan Wan left.
"What if something happens? I mean, what if... um, Ji Mohan, you..." Yan Wan continued to ask, unwilling to give up.
Ji Mohan didn't want Yan Wan to continue this topic, so he simply shut her up with a kiss. A passionate and frantic kiss assaulted Yan Wan, and she could hardly hold on any longer.
(Family, Hanzi has made something of himself.)
