[Simulated information entry in progress, simulated female: Xia Zihan.]
On the first day, after a long journey, you slept until noon. However, when you went to the small cubicle outside, you didn't find Xia Zihan. You were a little puzzled, but didn't go looking for her.
[It wasn't until evening that Xia Zihan returned to the shop looking worried. Seeing her like this, you asked her what was wrong, but she said she was fine, and you didn't think much of it.]
On the seventh day, Xia Zihan left early and returned late every day. You finally sensed something was wrong, so you secretly followed her when she went out.
An hour later, you followed Xia Zihan to a desolate place. She took out a portrait and compared it to something else. After confirming her suspicions, she began searching the surrounding area.
[With your knowledge as a second-grade alchemist, you immediately recognized the herbs she had gathered as Blue Heart Grass, the main ingredient needed for the Rejuvenation Pill.]
However, you notice that her harvesting technique is extremely clumsy; she has damaged the roots of several Blueheart Grass plants, making them completely unusable for alchemy.
Before she knew it, night had fallen. Xia Zihan, exhausted from a long day, looked at the meager amount of Blue Heart Grass she had gathered in her bundle, her worry deepening. She glanced at the darkening night and hurried to Xu Feng City, not far from the town.
[After watching her walk into a shop selling pills, you hesitated for a while before following her in. Inside, you saw Xia Zihan standing by a stall, while a middle-aged man was sorting through the Blue Heart Grass she had collected. After the inventory was completed, since most of the herbs did not meet his requirements, the middle-aged man ultimately only offered two low-grade spirit stones.]
Xia Zihan returned to the town with the spirit stones, her face full of disappointment.
A month later, Xia Zihan appeared before you with a joyful expression, and then told you that she would soon be able to repay you for the opportunities she had encountered in the cave and the spirit liquid pool.
You felt a little puzzled, but seeing her delighted expression, you simply nodded blankly.
Two months later, Xia Zihan nervously entered your room and handed you an extremely gorgeous robe. You were puzzled, but Xia Zihan insisted that you wear it. Reluctantly, you put it on. Afterwards, Xia Zihan looked at you in the magnificent robe with a satisfied expression in her eyes.
The next day, you see Xia Zihan leading a handsome man to you, followed by two other young men.
[Afterwards, Xia Zihan enthusiastically introduced the man to you. You learned from her that he was her half-brother. Hearing this, you greeted him warmly, but he only nodded indifferently at you.]
That evening, you heard Xia Zihan arguing with her brother, and then you saw her storm out, slamming the door behind her.
Three months later, Xia Zihan quietly came to your room and suddenly urged you to leave. You wanted to know why, but she refused to tell you. Despite your confusion, you complied and left.
Before parting, Xia Zihan handed you a jade box, then watched you leave with red eyes. Before leaving, you looked back and saw Xia Zihan sadly wiping away her tears...
[After you left the town, a figure blocked your way. Upon closer inspection, you realized it was Xia Zihan's brother. Just as you were wondering why he was there, a giant golden claw sliced you in half.]
[Before you died, you heard his indifferent voice: "I never expected that Xiao Jiu would finally fall in love and actually be willing to give this to you..."]
This simulation has ended and is currently being evaluated...
[Overall result: Affection value: 25; Reward: 100 high-grade spirit stones]
Please select the reward for this simulation. Rewards can only be applied within the simulation.
[a: 1 point of emotional intelligence; b: 1 point of appearance; c: 1 point of skill; d: 1 point of luck]
"this......"
The simulation provided so much information that Qin Luo was momentarily stunned. Judging from the rewards obtained in the simulation, Xia Zihan's biggest need right now must be spirit stones. But what would she need spirit stones for? Could it be for cultivation resources?
But this possibility is extremely slim, and Xia Zihan's brother will come here in two months, so why would he attack him when he leaves this town?
This made him feel as if he were shrouded in a fog, unable to see the road ahead.
"Never mind, things will work themselves out."
Qin Luo sighed, then looked at the options and chose the 1 point of emotional intelligence. He felt that he was quite dull in this simulation, and it seemed that his emotional intelligence was starting to be lacking.
Previously, in the temple simulation, he had always used the Luck option to allocate his points, so much so that his Luck had accumulated to 8 points, but it was still unreliable. It would be safer to allocate the points to Emotional Intelligence.
Qin Luo thought to himself calmly, then remembered that Xia Zihan would be away for a while on the second day of the simulation. After pondering for a moment, he sent his spiritual sense out to see what she was up to this time...
Thus, Qin Luo walked around with his spiritual sense while letting the spiritual energy in his dantian nourish his body.
Time passed quietly as Qin Luo cultivated, and before he knew it, it was the next morning.
"It's time."
Qin Luo exited his cultivation state, his eyes flashing with purple light.
Outside the shop, Xia Zihan carefully closed the door. After confirming that Qin Luo had not woken up, she breathed a sigh of relief and, clutching the alchemy book in her hand, rushed off in one direction.
Little did they know that Qin Luo was watching all of this from a short distance away.
After following for an hour, Qin Luo saw Xu Fengcheng appear in the simulation.
Xia Zihan was seen searching for something in the city, and then walked straight into a bustling shop.
Qin Luo looked at the shop's name with a strange expression, because it was a storage station for belongings. Could it be that Xia Zihan had something to send or something to retrieve?
Why think so much? Just go in and ask, and you'll know.
Qin Luo made a self-deprecating remark before walking into the post station. Upon entering, he immediately spotted Xia Zihan, who was dressed as a man.
She was arguing with an old man, but the old man just shook his head with a wry smile.
Qin Luo only heard the two talking when he got closer.
