At the same time, in a house outside the city of Xianyang.
A woman in white suddenly appeared on the bed covered by the curtains. The blush on her porcelain-like face had not yet faded, and there was a satisfied arc at the corner of her mouth.
"Energy replenishing...System restarting..."
"Time and space jump error, recovered..."
"The illegal intruder has been located. Host, please capture him immediately!"
Waves of mechanical electronic sounds kept ringing in her ears, making Chu Yuening frown.
She slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw the wooden roof with her hazy eyes, she couldn't help but raise her hands to rub the corners of her eyes.
"Where is this?"
Chu Yuening murmured to herself, she supported herself on the bed and sat up, looking around.
What caught my eye was a white curtain, and beneath me was a wide bed, but the hard touch was obviously not my own soft and bouncy Simmons bed.
"hiss--"
She pinched her thigh hard, and a sharp pain told her that this was not a dream.
So she had to lift the curtain and get out of bed barefoot, and then she could see the whole picture of the room she was in.
The whole house is made of wood with several "well"-shaped windows.
The room was furnished with a wardrobe against the wall, a table for tea, a dressing table with carved patterns, and a smooth bronze mirror on top.
The overall decoration style is simple, elegant and antique.
Chu Yuening was struck by lightning when she saw this, and her mind was in a mess.
She did not open the door rashly, but returned to the bed, sat cross-legged, and began to sort out her thoughts.
She remembered that on her way home, she saved a little boy who was almost hit by a car, and she herself was knocked away.
According to common sense, with the truck being so big and moving so fast, the possibility of her small body surviving is almost zero.
So she has been reincarnated now?
Or traveled through time?
She looked at her figure which had not changed much, and then went to the dressing table to look at her more perfect facial features in the bronze mirror.
Chu Yuening touched her face in confusion.
Suddenly she noticed something was wrong and quickly stretched out her ten fingers, only to find that all the calluses from years of handicraft work had disappeared.
This is definitely not her original body, Chu Yuening thought firmly.
She sat back on the bed and continued to think about the suspicious things.
Hmm...
Later I had an indescribable dream, but that’s not important.
It was as if there was a faint mechanical electronic voice in my mind, saying -
"system!"
Chu Yuening called out tentatively in her heart.
"Host, I am here. Merit System 1001 is at your service. What are your instructions?"
“…”
Chu Yuening was silent.
At this moment, the worldview of the past twenty years shattered like glass.
She tried to suppress her inner shock and her shaky materialistic views and asked anxiously.
"Why did you bind me? What do you want from me?"
"This system is bound to the host naturally because you are a person of great merit."
"As the latest merit system developed by the World Administration, my duty is to assist those with great merit in maintaining the stability and development of the Three Thousand Worlds."
"...I only saved one person, so that shouldn't be considered a great deed, right?"
"The host has died saving others in all his nine lifetimes."
“…”
All right.
I don't know whether to say it's miserable or very miserable...
I must never die saving someone else in this life!
She never wanted to be wronged again! Chu Yuening swore secretly.
"So what's my situation now? Why does my body seem to have changed?"
"Because the host died in the original world, his body was damaged and could not be repaired."
"The system can only use up its energy to bring the host's soul to the Qin Dynasty in the parallel world and reshape the host's body."
There seemed to be a hint of grievance in the electronic sound of the system.
His little piggy bank, woooo.
"You're quite a nice person, but can I still go back to the modern era?"
Ever since Chu Yuening learned about time travel, she has been able to accept the parallel world calmly.
Now she just wants to ask if she can return to the convenient modern life. She can't imagine how to survive in this backward feudal dynasty.
"It takes a lot of energy, or merit, to travel through time and space."
If he hadn't met that son of luck, he would still be dormant without his own secret stash.
Chu Yuening fell silent again after hearing this.
So, there was only one way left for her.
She took a deep breath. She had to live anyway, so how could she die? So she cheered up and asked.
"How can I gain merit? I can't risk my life to save others, right?"
"The host only needs to build the country and benefit the people in this dynasty."
Okay, Chu Yuening understood immediately.
It means that we can build infrastructure and ensure that the people have enough food and clothing and live a well-off life.
But the key is that this is a feudal dynasty!
The class system is strict and human life is less valuable than livestock.
Especially in the Qin Dynasty, where the laws were strict, people like her who had no household registration would be arrested and forced to build the Great Wall if they went out the next day.
Chu Yuening shuddered at the thought of this possibility, and she hurriedly pleaded with the system.
"System, can you give me an identity first? Otherwise, I'll die before I even achieve my goal."
"Host, please rest assured. This system has arranged an identity for you."
"She is the daughter of a Xianyang merchant whose parents have both passed away. This house is also her inheritance, serving as the host's place to stay."
