Chapter 2: The Dividing System



When Lin woke up, it was already the next morning. A nurse came in to check on her. Seeing that she was awake, she ran out in surprise and soon called in an old doctor with a gray beard. The old doctor examined Lin and asked her questions for a long time before he stopped.

"It's a miracle, it's really a miracle. After such a serious car accident, she only suffered a minor concussion with some skin broken." The old doctor stared at Lin's skull with shining eyes, as if he wanted to take it apart to take a look at the internal structure.

Lin Xin now remembered everything. She had a car accident yesterday. She was hit by a black Audi at the school gate. But that was not the point. The point was that the hexagram had really come true. That rubbish website was not a scam.

"Host, please do not question the capabilities of this system."

The sudden sound of machinery frightened Lin Xi so much that she almost jumped off the bed.

System? So the voices heard before death are not hallucinations.

"If this is an illusion, with all due respect, the host is already dead at this moment." The system's voice appeared again.

"What's wrong?" The old doctor thought Lin Xi had some sequelae and asked with concern.

"No...it's okay, I'm just a little scared." Lin Yanming replied with a pale face.

"You're right to be afraid. The doctor who was with the car said you were thrown a full 20 meters. 20 meters, if you were hit that far, you would be disabled if not dead..." The old doctor took a look at the patient's pale face, realized that his wording was a little inappropriate, coughed lightly, and said again, "But it's okay, as the old saying goes, those who survive a disaster will surely have good fortune in the future."

"Thank you, doctor." Lin Nan thanked him.

"Okay, stop thinking about it. Now that you're awake, go and pay the hospital fees. Your condition isn't serious. You just have a cut on your skull and some bleeding. You can be discharged after one more day of observation." After the old doctor finished speaking, he muttered a few incredible words to himself.

"Hospitalization fee?" Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, "Didn't the person who hit me pay it?"

"The driver who hit you fled the scene, and we don't know if he has been caught yet," said the old doctor.

Being hit by someone and having to pay for the medical expenses yourself, can it be more miserable? But compared to losing your life, a little money is nothing.

"How much?" Lin asked.

"There is a hospital admission form at the bedside. Please bind our hospital's public number and check it yourself. After checking, you can pay directly online." After the old doctor said this, he went to take care of other patients.

As soon as the old doctor left, Lin Xi rushed into the toilet impatiently. It was not because she urgently needed to solve a physiological problem, but because she wanted to verify something.

"Division system?"

"It's me." The system voice sounded.

"It's actually true? So, it was you who saved me?" She was confused at that time and didn't remember it very clearly.

"Yes, because the host's body was too weak when it was tied up, the system automatically repaired the host's body. But in view of the fact that the host had actually suffered a car accident and blood had already leaked out of the body, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the system ultimately left a small wound on the host's brain. Please understand." The system is a rigorous system.

"It's okay." Compared to being killed or crippled, a small wound is nothing. "Thank you for saving me."

"You're welcome." System.

Although she still didn't understand why she was bound to this system, the system saved her life, and Lin decided to like this system.

"Digging system, your ability is to dig for radishes, right? Do I have to help you to dig for radishes in the future?" Lin Xi had also read some novels and could roughly guess the routine.

"Yes, the host needs to use the system to occupy groves for people around him and earn merit points." The system introduced itself while displaying the system interface in front of Lin Nan.

Lin Xi felt her eyes brighten, and a simple and elegant system interface appeared out of nowhere.

Lin took a quick look and found that the system interface seemed to be no different from an ordinary mobile phone APP. The main page was the fortune-telling page, and the layout was exactly the same as the previous fortune-telling website, with a large fortune-telling tube standing on the background of the Bagua. Lin didn't pay much attention to it, but directly clicked on the "Personal" page in the lower right corner. She was very curious about what her attributes were in the fortune-telling system.

Host: Lin Yan.

Age: 21

Gender: Female

Luck value: -99

Merit: 1

Guajin: 0

"What does Gua Jin mean?" Ordinary people always pay special attention to money.

"The host uses the fortune-telling system to tell fortunes for others, and the money earned is the fortune-telling fee." The system explained.

"Can I make money?!" Lin Xi was excited.

"There is no such thing as freeloading in the world. The squatters also need to eat. Every time they squat, the host can charge a corresponding fee as divination fee." said the system.

It's absolutely right.

The more Lin Xi listened, the brighter her eyes became. If one could get paid for fortune-telling, and with the 100% accuracy of the fortune-telling system, wouldn't she be getting rich?

The old doctor was right, if you survive a disaster, you will have good fortune in the future!

"Do I decide the amount of the divination fee myself or is it determined by the system?" Lin Yan asked cautiously.

"Set by the host..."

Can I set the divination fee myself? Then it can be cheaper in the early stage, and even free when necessary. After all, if I suddenly go out and say that I can tell fortunes, no one will believe it. However, with the 100% accuracy of the fortune-telling system, this time will not be too long. Once my reputation is established, the price can be increased...

"Ten dollars per time." System.

"What? Ten dollars for one bite?" Just when Lin Xichang was thinking about a bright future, the system suddenly quoted a price, interrupting Lin Xichang's daydream.

"Yes." System.

"Didn't you say that I can set the divination fee myself?" Lin Xi said dissatisfiedly.

"This is the price set by the host." System.

“When did I set it up?”

The system did not make any sound, but the system interface in front of Lin Xi suddenly flashed, showing two lines of notes:

[Please pay the divination fee: 10 yuan/signature, 100 yuan/signature, 1000 yuan/signature, 10000 yuan/signature, 100000 yuan/signature. ]

【Note: Please choose carefully, your choice will determine your starting point. 】

"Does the host remember?" the system asked.

"..." Lin Xi more than just remembered it, she wanted to bang her head on the toilet and die, especially when she thought about how complacent she was and how she felt when she chose the ten yuan.

So this is the starting point.

"This... I didn't know what it meant at the time." Lin Xi regretted.

"In the eyes of the host, the divination fee is equal to the value of the divination. It is fair and just." said the system.

It made so much sense that I couldn't refute it.

The road to getting rich by taking advantage of others was just beginning, but it was ruthlessly cut off, and it was cut off by her own stinginess. She blamed the locals for all the blame. How do you say it? It's called self-inflicted trouble. Sure enough, the pattern determines the height. If she can also use 100 million as a small goal like someone else, her divination fee must start from 100,000.

Never mind. No matter what, saving my life is the greatest fortune I have ever had.

"Does this luck value refer to luck? What does -99 mean?" Even if you don't understand the standard of the luck index, a negative number is definitely not a good thing.

"The host can directly click on the font to view the introduction." said the system.

Lin said "oh" and pointed her finger at the "luck value". A line of explanation popped up on the interface: [Luck value, the highest is 99, the lowest is -99. The higher the value, the better the luck, and vice versa. When the luck value is lower than -90, there will be a life-threatening situation, and -99 means death.]

"..." No wonder I got into a car accident, no wonder I couldn't find a job, now I understand, "Ran Ran is right, I really should go to the temple to pray."

Ranran's real name is Song Ranran, and she is Lin Xi's best friend.

Lin didn't dwell on it for too long and continued to study the system. She clicked on "Merit Value" and a line of explanation appeared: [This system can take away the bad luck of people within three meters of the host. Each time you help take away the bad luck, you can get one point of merit. If you help avoid bad luck, you can get ten points of merit. The system consumes one point of merit every day. When the merit accumulates to 99, the system mall can be opened.]

"Mall?" Lin Xi began to look for the mall in the system interface. Sure enough, she found the mall button at the end of the interface, but the button was gray, obviously not yet turned on.

In other words, she had to help at least one person to pick up the rotten leaves every day in order to satisfy the operation of the system. This was not difficult. With so many people in the city every day, she would always meet one or two unlucky people. She only needed to pick up the rotten leaves and then tell them the result. Although she thought this was not difficult, Lin Yan still asked, "What if I don't earn the merit points in time?"

"If the merit value is 0 or lower than 0, the host will return to the moment before being unbound to the system." said the system.

"The moment before the system was bound, wouldn't she be... hit by a car and die?!" Lin Yan's voice was shaking with fear. Wasn't she just hit by a car before she bound the system?

"Host, don't panic. In the spirit of humanitarianism, the system will give the host three chances. The host will die only if the merit value is 0 or lower than 0 for three consecutive times. In the first two times, the host will only be hit by a car, and each time he is hit, the system will automatically gain a point of merit." said the system.

"...which means I need to be hit by a car three times in a row before I die."

"Yes, it's difficult to die from a probability perspective."

"Thank you so much." Lin Xi didn't feel comforted. No matter what, this merit value is the key point, and she must not let it return to zero. She will go out to get some food for others in a while. This is a hospital, there are many people, and she will definitely meet one or two unlucky people.

This pitiful amount of merit made Lin Xi feel as if she would die tomorrow.

After Lin Yan finished asking what she wanted to ask, her eyes unconsciously fell back on her extremely unlucky luck value: "Well, I've died once, shouldn't my luck value be changed?"

A luck value of -99, a fatal fate, she really didn't want to see this number.

"The host's luck value cannot be changed." said the system.

"Why?!" Lin Xi was shocked.

"Because, host, all the good luck in your life has been used to meet me." An emotionless AI smart voice made a romantic love word sound scary.

Can you please stop pretending to be cute at a time like this!

"Will I always be unlucky? Never be able to find a job, always be in life-and-death crisis?" Lin Xi felt her eyes go dark. The moment before, she thought she was lucky to be tied up by the system and save her life. As it turned out, she really was lucky.

It's just that all my bad luck in life has run out, woo woo

Lin Xi suddenly wanted to cry.

"Nothing matters more than life and death."

"What do you mean?" Lin asked weakly.

"When the luck value drops to -99, it is extremely unlucky, and the rest of the bad luck will retreat, so the host can still find a job."

Lin Xi no longer wanted to talk. The system's comfort gave her a heart attack. She decided not to like this system anymore.

"The last question is, will life-and-death crises occur every day?" If the system's answer is yes, Lin Xi decided to jump off the building immediately. She didn't want to be the protagonist of Final Destination.

"No, a crisis does not appear out of thin air. It can only appear when conditions in a specific social environment are met. That is, it is a danger that naturally arises in society." said the system.

Lin thought about it and understood. In other words, her bad luck was not that the god of death had come. There would not be an unscientific accident scene specially set up for her. She was just particularly unlucky, so she was easily involved in danger. And this kind of danger happened naturally. When the environment around her was safe, she was safe too.

Lin Xi immediately relaxed. She was still very confident about the security environment in our country. As long as she went to work honestly, worked diligently, and did not run around for no reason, the probability of encountering danger would not be too high. Just like in this society, accidents happen every day, but when it comes to a specific area or individual, the probability will be greatly reduced.

If you don't believe me, just go out and ask which neighborhoods have murders and car accidents every day.

Suddenly, someone knocked on the toilet door: "Little girl, are you okay?"

"Oh, I'm fine. I'll just wash my hands and come out." Maybe it was because Lin Nan had been in for too long, and the people outside were worried.

Lin turned on the faucet and washed her hands casually. She looked up inadvertently and saw herself in the mirror.

“Ahhhh!!!”

A piece of pure white gauze was quietly attached to the thick hair.

What is more difficult to accept than death is a beautiful girl who becomes bald at a young age.
