After a series of unexpected events, even Qian Xiao was almost dumbfounded. In other words, this thing is different from the systems with missions written in novels. It has no missions or rules. Everything is just a coincidence.
"Do you have a spatial dimension? Do you have a shop? Do you have a spiritual spring that can improve your constitution and cure diseases? Can you watch the drama unfold? Can you help the host learn? Do you have any so-called newbie gift pack? Or, do you have any functions that can make the host more beautiful or stronger? Do you have any cultivation techniques to help you cultivate immortality?"
The little system felt that its remaining functions were about to crash. What was the host talking about? Could a system really have so many functions? If it had no other function besides chatting with the host, would the host dislike or abandon it?
"No, no, because we traveled through time and space, I lost some of my functions," the little system explained cautiously.
"for example?"
"For example, there's a small space inside my body, some things saved by my previous owner, some study materials, etc... But I'm very powerful. As long as I find the signal here, I can download all the files on the internet."
In other words, this thing is nothing now, except for being able to talk to her in her head, it's just a useless thing? Can she just not use this cheat ability? It seems to be completely useless.
She might have been holding it in after becoming a spirit in her past life, and in this life she might have spoken up, and she doesn't lack people to talk to.
And the internet? If she had the internet, she could do it too. But what era are we in now? It's the 1950s. If we're going to wait for the internet to become widespread, it'll be at least another 30 or 40 years. Are you kidding me?
Qian Xiao became withdrawn. She said that she was not destined to be a protagonist or a supporting character, and that she should just live her own life and think about how to fill her stomach.
The place Qian Xiao is in now should be considered a parallel universe. Given that she was quite good at history in her previous life, she would definitely never have heard of the name of the place she is in now.
Even the names of the countries are not quite the same, let alone the leaders. However, the general historical trajectory is still very similar. Just look how troublesome those Japanese devils are. Even in a parallel universe, they can't stop the Japanese devils from harming people.
It is autumn of 1955. Her current location is similar to the Northeast region of her previous life, in a small village under Heilongjiang Province. The village's name is also very characteristic of the era, Qianjiatun. The village is not small and has a large population, but most of them have the surname Qian.
It's not time for villages to be converted into production brigades yet, and the land hasn't been completely transferred to the brigade. The land that families are currently cultivating is still their own land. It won't be long before the village is converted into a production brigade, and farmers will no longer have their own land. At that time, everyone will be on a work-point system.
My grandfather's generation had five brothers, but now only three of them still live in the village. That's the situation in their branch of the family.
My grandfather had three sons. My father was the eldest, but he left for the army before he was even an adult, and it was common for him to not come home for several years at a time. Fortunately, my grandparents were kind, and the whole family lived together without any conflicts, so my mother didn't have to be the only woman in the family to manage the household.
In these days, it's incredibly difficult for a woman to raise children alone. She can barely handle the local bullies and thugs in the countryside, let alone have to work in the fields and raise three children.
My second and third uncles were farmers. Of the three brothers, my father was the most educated, but he only graduated from elementary school. Back then, there was war and we didn't have enough to eat. Who would send their children to school?
Now her second and third uncles are both married and, coincidentally, both have twin boys, making them a large and prosperous family. She is the only girl in the family and also the eldest child.
"Um... host?" The voice was filled with caution.
Strange, she could hear a sense of caution in the mechanical voice. Could it be that she bumped her head and was hallucinating?
"What's up?" Qian Xiao's voice was filled with utter despair.
Even if she was a top student in her past life, she has no use for it now. She is currently just a seven-year-old kid in the countryside, a kid who has never been to school. The words she knows were taught to her by her grandfather, so she is practically illiterate.
Limited by the times and her age, she can't do anything. Every day she has to work hard to find food for Gu Gu's hungry stomach. It would be better not to let her think about her past life. That way, everyone would be in the same boat, and she wouldn't feel that life is hard.
"Host, wait a little longer, I'll find you a space soon?" The host's emotional value tells it that the host is most interested in space.
Once the host has its own space, will it stop abandoning it?
"Really?" Why didn't she believe that?
"Really, really, just wait a little longer, and I'll definitely be able to get you some space to store your things."
In other words, the space can only store items; there's no land for planting or a spiritual spring to improve one's physique? But that's not necessarily a bad thing. Something is better than nothing. If she's incredibly lucky and finds some treasure, then she'll have a place to hide it.
"Alright, I'll just wait for you to find me a space, but let's make this clear first, I'm extremely poor, extremely poor, extremely poor, and I have nothing to exchange." The three "extremely poor"s in a row represent just how impoverished Qian Xiao is right now.
She was afraid that it might be a jade pendant or something, and she would have to buy it herself. She didn't have any money. Not to mention, she had never even seen what a coin costing more than a dime looked like in her entire life.
"No need, no need, it's definitely free." Although it has been dormant for years, it knows to some extent how difficult life was in this era.
"Okay, then I'll wait." Qian Xiao didn't quite believe the system's words. If he could get a space, he would have done it already. Why would he have waited until now?
She felt someone nudging her body: "My family is calling me. I woke up first. By the way, from now on, I can just talk to you in my head?"
"Yes, we can communicate with our minds."
When Qian Xiao opened her eyes, she saw two more people in white uniforms in the room.
It's only October, isn't it? Sure enough, the trajectory of history can be a bit different. I remember in the original world, the uniforms weren't changed until November of this year, but it's only October now.
No one found it strange that Qian Xiao was staring blankly at the two people; after all, he had injured his head, so it was normal for him to be a little dazed.
"Erdan?"
Qian Xiao moved her eyes and saw that it was her own mother who was pushing her: "Mother."
"Hey, these two are police officers. They're here to ask you about something. Would you like some water first?" I could tell my daughter's voice was hoarse again.
