After the two best friends chatted about menstrual belts for a while, they whispered about what happened at the banquet today.
Li Nian heard Li Sisi talk about what happened when they met the heroine while playing drinking games.
I had the same thought as Li Sisi: "According to what you said, there is indeed only the second possibility, that the heroine has become a book traveler."
Li Sisi frowned in confusion. "But she didn't know the riddle about a pig hitting a tree? She doesn't look like she's transmigrated into a book."
"Maybe she doesn't care much about these things normally." Li Nian's eyes moved, and he said thoughtfully, "Forget it, let's ignore her. We have to leave anyway."
"I have something more important to do now."
"What's the matter?" Li Sisi looked at Li Nian's suddenly serious expression and also became serious.
Li Nian leaned closer to the table, half-lying on it. "Remember that small town in southern Xinjiang I told you about before? Xiao Yunyu said today that his master is settling there, so we need to choose another place."
After hearing this, Li Sisi thought about it for a moment and then came up with a new plan.
"Then let's go to the northwest. The people there are open-minded and more suitable for modern people like us." Li Sisi rested her chin on the table, her face full of fantasy. "Then we can find a tall and long-legged boy to teach us how to ride a handsome horse and gallop across the endless grassland!"
Li Nian glanced at her calmly and jokingly said, "Are you longing for the vast grasslands there, or for the mighty and majestic men there?"
"Oh, it's all the same," Li Sisi said with a smile. "Anyway, we have money. We can raise horses, cannons, and men on the grassland. It doesn't matter what we do."
"By the way, when are we leaving? My life expectancy is now in my early sixties. How much is yours?"
Li Nian said truthfully: "A little over fifty." If they wait a little longer, they can soon have sixty or seventy years. This was the life they stole, so they should be content.
"Fuck! Sisters, how did you do that?" Li Sisi raised her voice in shock, but then, thinking about the current situation, she quickly covered her mouth and lowered her voice. "Last time you said you were under 30, and it's only been a short time, and you're already over 50?"
Li Nian's face turned slightly red.
Maybe, probably, perhaps it’s because Xiao Yunyu is too clingy?
Whenever they were alone, he would cling to her, and she couldn't refuse.
Well, she didn't want to refuse. After all, although Xiao Yunyu was a little shameless and sometimes made excessive demands, he had a strong learning ability.
It’s worth it to be able to enjoy the increase of life.
"Wow, he's worthy of being the male lead, so awesome," Li Sisi exclaimed repeatedly.
Li Nian quickly cut short the topic, leaning closer to Li Sisi across the table and whispering, "Sisi, I've figured out how to get out. We can exchange fake bodies from the system, and we'll just escape with our lives; that's a safer bet."
"Sudden death?" Li Sisi's eyes widened suddenly. Isn't this method too casual and straightforward?
Li Nian hurriedly shook his head: "Sudden death is not an option. To ensure that nothing goes wrong, I have two plans."
Upon hearing this, Li Sisi immediately opened her bright eyes and listened attentively.
"The first plan is to wait for Xiao Yunchen to go on a business trip in two months. Then you will leave a letter and use it as an excuse to go find him. Then I will also leave a letter saying I am going to find you. By then, if Yuquan City is plagued by an epidemic, it will be normal for us to die outside."
"For the second plan, we'll act according to circumstances, but remember the most important thing: don't take the initiative to provoke the heroine! Otherwise, the heroine's halo will ruin our plan."
Hearing Li Nian's second plan, Li Sisi curled her lips and said, "It's the same as if you didn't say anything about your second plan."
Li Nianci's pale face said seriously, "I'm just saying hello to you first. If we can proceed according to the first plan, that would be the best. We still have some time to continue accumulating health points. After all, the system requires ten years of life to exchange for a fake body."
"But I don't know what the heroine's situation is right now. I'm afraid that even if we don't take the initiative to provoke her, the plot of the original book will still affect us and lead to an irreversible situation. If that really happens, we should just ignore everything and run away."
"Okay, I'll do as you say!"
The two of them chatted in low voices about some other random things, and finally Xiao Yunyu came over to remind them that it was time for dinner.
The two agreed to go to the street together to buy cotton to make a menstrual belt tomorrow, and then separate.
The next day, the morning light was dim and the sun was rising.
The two best friends went to pay their respects to Madam Xiao early in the morning, and then left the house together.
They first went to the pawnshop to pawn the things Xiao Yunyu had won and exchanged them for silver bills.
When the pawnshop owner saw that the young couple pawned their dowries and used the man's belongings as their belongings, and that they always pawned a lot of things, he started to have a lot of random guesses in his mind.
The two best friends received a large sum of money to escape, and they felt particularly happy and relaxed.
"Things like cotton should be sold in clothing stores, right?" Li Sisi said uncertainly. In any case, the original owner seemed to have never seen such a thing in her memory.
Li Nian didn't remember anything, so he said, "Let's go there and ask first. If not... maybe it's somewhere where food is sold?"
"Okay, let's go!"
The two of them walked and strolled along the way, and went into any shop they came across to ask.
At first, the two were not in a hurry, until they asked almost all the shops in the capital, and got the same answer.
“I’ve never seen anything like it.”
“Unheard of.”
"There is no cotton in this world?" Li Sisi was so tired that she put her hands on her hips. She had been walking around for a whole day, but apart from eating and drinking, she didn't get anything else!
Li Nian was also a little discouraged. After all, for women, a good sanitary napkin is really important.
She tried hard to search for something similar to cotton in the original owner's memory, but she had no impression of it.
She began to recall the plot of the original book again, and suddenly remembered something.
He said hurriedly, "Sisi, I remember one of the heroine's suitors likes to collect some weird things."
She frowned and tried to recall, "It seemed like a prince, but I can't remember which prince it was. I only remember that one time, the prince grew a cloud-like flower and even asked the heroine to see it."
She looked at Li Sisi and said, "Why don't you go back and ask Xiao Yunchen? He's more knowledgeable about court affairs and has made acquaintances with many of the ministers. Xiao Yunyu hangs out with a bunch of cronies all day long, so he probably wouldn't know."
When Li Sisi heard that she had a clue, her eyes lit up: "Okay, I'll go back and ask Chenchen today."
After a busy day, they finally had some clues. They both felt a little relieved. They bought some food and drinks on the street and went home together.
In the evening, Jinxiu Residence.
Li Sisi sat in front of the half-open stained glass window, holding a newly selected Northwest Humanities magazine in her hand, reading while waiting for Xiao Yunchen.
When the afterglow of the setting sun spread neatly through the window lattice, the shadow of the sweet-scented osmanthus tree outside the house fell into Zhao Jing's house.
Xiao Yunchen finally walked in with a relaxed look on his face, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
Li Sisi immediately put down the book in her hand, stood up, and greeted him with a smile: "Chenchen, have you finished your work?"
