Chapter 005 Chapter 5

The system really needs to improve its IQ.

Gong Jiu just likes to be beaten, and he doesn't really want to find a master for himself and play master-servant role.

He was able to survive Gong Jiu's hands thanks to his intelligence! He

showed his physical weakness almost without any disguise, explained part of his identity and background just right, and used the state of "Xue Chen" to disgust him and arouse his suspicion, so that he would be willing to continue to endure the disguise and lurk by his side, so that he would not completely forget about it, and would not shamelessly have a seizure in front of him.

Xue Chen was very satisfied with this.

After he officially started working and started the construction of the island, Xue Chen's treatment level increased sharply. Not only could he move around freely outside, he also had expensive clothes, and he could order his own food. He could eat whatever he wanted, and the dumb man who took care of him started to speak.

His name was Hu Sheng. He had a long and narrow horse face. He looked very serious, but he actually had a good temper. He was very dedicated to Xue Chen and was not impatient at all. He

didn't have access to core data when he first joined the company, but there were a lot of scattered things, which was worthy of his salary.

Xue Chen spent 12 skill points to max out [Arithmetic], and his calculation speed increased immediately.

He deliberately concealed his shortcomings and calculated as before. In fact, most of the time he focused on the entity, perfectly realizing paid fishing.

This went on for five days, and Xue Chen got 12 more synchronization rates, and the vest synchronization reached 31%.

When the synchronization rate reached 30%, Xue Chen found that the headache that had troubled him for a long time had completely disappeared, and the subsequent increase in synchronization rate was directly fed back to the original body.

He was not used to having two complete sets of senses, and when controlling "Xie Heng", he could only let the original body close its eyes and rest.

The original body's physical condition was not very good. After lying in bed for so long without exercising, a normal person would have postural blood pressure and heart rate would be affected. However, Xue Chen did not feel that uncomfortable. After asking the system, it was confirmed that it was because of the increase in the vest synchronization rate.

Xue Chen asked: [Isn't the synchronization rate used to repair the soul? Why is my body getting better? 】

The system did not answer immediately, as if it was organizing its words. After a while, it said uncertainly: [You can understand this as fixing your brain and your spirit will be better.]

Xue Chen: [I advised you to light up your IQ out of kindness, you are too stingy.]

The system was about to scold him when someone knocked on the door. Mr. Hu said, "Sir, it's Shenzheng."

Shenzheng is 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the time when Xue Chen gets off work.

Gong Jiu's requirements are very low, and this is the time he set for getting off work. He had previously instructed Mr. Hu to remind him every day at Shenzheng.

Xue Chen took the opportunity to block the system, straightened his clothes, and said calmly, "Come in."

After Mr. Hu came over, Xue Chen handed him the account book: "Bring me a pot of wine when you come back."

Mr. Hu agreed and turned to leave.

Xue Chen didn't drink much before he traveled through time. The brewing level in ancient times was low, and the wine was even more unpalatable. It was better to drink some drinks like sour plum soup and snow pear soup.

However, after the vest synchronization rate reached 30%, it grew very slowly. Those self-pitying performances were only effective when they were first spoken. Whether they would be useful later depended on the timing. Xue Chen looked at the "Xie Heng" portrait that the system had projected into his mind several times, and decided to get some wine to try.

Mr. Hu brought back a complete set of wine utensils, and Gong Jiu followed him.

"Why are you here?" Xue Chen asked.

"I'm here to massage your legs." Gong Jiu had a stern face, and it was hard to tell whether he was joking or not.

Mr. Hu put away the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the table, wiped the table clean, put out the wine utensils, filled two glasses of wine and left quietly.

Gong Jiu sat down, without touching the wine glass, he said lightly: "You will go to sea with me tomorrow."

Xue Chen paused in his action of waving his sleeves: "Go to sea? Where to?"

Gong Jiu said: "On land."

Xue Chen did not continue to ask, he picked up the wine glass, suddenly poured it into his mouth, and swallowed it quickly before his tongue could react. The taste of alcohol remained in his mouth, as well as the slight sourness of food and fermented koji.

He felt his face burning. Xie Heng was really thin-skinned. He got drunk so quickly.

[Set synchronization rate +5, current vest synchronization rate 36%, available skill points 20. ]

Seeing that he knew he was going back, Gong Jiu became listless and kept drinking. He thought that this man might really have a bad relationship with his family, and he was not lying intentionally to stay on the island.

Gong Jiu understood this very well. If it weren't for his elder brother at home, he wouldn't want to go back.

Xue Chen was immersed in the world of increasing synchronization rate and couldn't extricate himself. He didn't notice Gong Jiu's emotional changes at all.

Drinking really works!

At the beginning, I added 5 points directly. If I continue to drink, there is a probability of triggering an increase in synchronization rate, but it is very small. Basically, it will be triggered once after drinking more than ten sips. The probability may continue to decrease. For Xue Chen, it is also very good. At least he has found another way to increase the synchronization rate.

Xue Chen rubbed his hot cheeks: "The materials for refining pills that I wanted before are not available on the island. This time I go out, I will buy them all."

Gong Jiu heard Niu Rou Tang say that Xie Heng knew how to refine pills and arithmetic. What he needed most at the moment was an accountant, and no one took refining pills seriously.

There are many people in the world who can refine pills, but few have become famous. Except for pills that have some effects on curing diseases, what is the difference between other pills and poisons?

Gong Jiu did not believe in ghosts and gods, and had no interest in this. He casually said: "As long as you don't interfere with the main business, you can do whatever you want."

You said this.

Xue Chen continued to pour wine into his mouth, and the wine pot was soon empty. He pushed it to Gong Jiu: "You go and add some."

Gong Jiu was in a trance for a moment, as if he saw his brother.

Apart from his eldest brother, no one else would order him in such a calm tone, as if everything was as it should be.

He and his eldest brother are twins, closely connected in the womb, and rarely separated after birth, until he met the owner of the nameless island and ran outside frequently, they were not as close as before.

This person has no relatives or friends with him, and is disabled and weak. What right does he have to order him like this?

Gong Jiu was angry in his heart, and his tone became even colder: "Someone come."

The maid on duty outside came in tremblingly, lowered her head and did not dare to look Gong Jiu in the eye: "What do you want, Master Jiu?"

Gong Jiu said: "Go and get some wine."

The maid hurried out to get the wine.

Xue Chen smiled: "She is very afraid of you."

Gong Jiu said: "There are many people in this world who are afraid of me, but only a few are not afraid of me. Why aren't you afraid of me?"

Xue Chen suddenly leaned forward and leaned on the table to get closer.

Gong Jiu thought he was going to attack, so he sat still, but his right hand was on the sword on the table.

Xue Chen glanced at the hand holding the hilt and said calmly: "This is the answer."

[Set synchronization rate +2, current vest synchronization rate 38%, available skill points 22. ]

Xue Chen: [Huh? This works too? ]

He is not afraid of Gong Jiu because everything is under his control. Gong Jiu would dodge subconsciously, of course it is an instinct born with human beings. What does it have to do with the synchronization rate?

The system was confused: [Maybe the answer Gong Jiu understood is different from your real thoughts?]

Xue Chen: [Other people's views on me will also affect the synchronization rate?]

The system said: [Of course, and it has a great weight. Don't humans know and improve themselves through communication with others?]

Xue Chen: [That makes sense.]

He figured out Gong Jiu's thoughts.

Maybe "Xie Heng" is not afraid of death, so there is nothing to be afraid of. He has things that he can't let go of, his status, his father and brother, family affection and hatred, all of which he can't let go of, so he will naturally remain vigilant and subconsciously avoid danger?

Gong Jiu said: "You are very smart."

Xue Chen kept smiling.

Gong Jiu said: "It's a pity for such a smart person to only work as a bookkeeper. The island owner is very skilled in martial arts. If he is willing to accept you as his apprentice, even if you have poor talent, as long as you learn a few moves, you will be famous in the martial arts world."

Xue Chen asked: [Can Xie Heng's martial arts improve my physique? ]

System: [No. ]

Then why bother learning.

The old man's martial arts are high, but if you really want to worship him as a master, you will be completely on the pirate ship, from a normal hired worker to a free tool, and you will be squeezed out sooner or later. What

he needs most is not a bookkeeper, but an "invisible person", that is, a killer who cannot become a killer.

For example, the prince of Taiping, who is in a high position, has money and power, and a bright future. Before the truth is revealed, who can think that he is the real culprit behind the scenes?

Another example is Lu Xiaofeng, who is deeply loved by the old man and who he wants to support. If Lu Xiaofeng becomes his killer, he will hide even deeper.

Xie Heng is disabled and does not look fierce. He looks a bit sick. Anyone who sees him will first think of whether to lend a hand to help him, rather than guarding against him killing people. If he learns martial arts, the old man will definitely let him be the "invisible man". It's tiring to think about sitting in a wheelchair and committing murders everywhere. The cashier is more suitable for him.

Xue Chen shook his head and refused: "Daily checking of accounts has exhausted all my energy. I really don't have the energy to focus on other things. Let's forget it."

Gong Jiu said regretfully: "Do you know how much opportunity you will miss if you refuse today?"

"I will strive for what I want. I don't want what I don't want, no matter how good it is." Xue Chen's tone was calm. He sat beside the low couch and moved with great effort. "Massage my legs."

Gong Jiu: "..."

System: [I understand, you don't want to work, you just want to be the boss.]

Xue Chen said proudly: [He took the initiative to offer it to me. It's useless to refuse it.]

System: [..."

Gong Jiu hesitated, as if he was fighting with his self-esteem.

Xue Chen pretended to be confused: "Didn't you say you came here to massage my legs? And you don't drink."

Gong Jiu always kept his promises, and he started to massage him upon hearing that. He even consciously used his internal strength and lightened his strength.

Xue Chen drank the wine, occasionally triggering a reminder sound, and felt extremely comfortable.

He kept drinking and drinking, and suddenly the connection was disconnected, he lost a set of senses, and his attention returned to the Taiping Palace.

[What happened? Did you drink to death?] Xue Chen asked.

[You drank yourself into a blackout.]

...

The next day was a sunny day with bright sunshine, and the servants carried boxes and sent them to the ship one by one.

Xue Chen sat sleepily in the wheelchair and was pushed to the beach by Mr. Hu.

A maid came forward and said, "Master Jiu has arranged a place for you to stay. Master Xie, please come this way."

Hu Sheng pushed the wheelchair onto the boat from the wooden ramp and followed the maid for a long time before stopping in front of a house.

She knocked on the door, and a sharp cry like a cry for help came from inside.

The maid pretended to be calm: "Master Jiu, Master Xie is here."

Gong Jiu's voice was painful, and he couldn't wait to say, "Come in quickly..."
