Chapter 267: Poor Princess (XVI)
"What reward?"
After the special effects of the energy potion wore off, Gu Qingcheng felt tired and hungry.
She carried an empty backpack and walked down the mountain step by step.
In order to distract herself, Gu Qingcheng chatted with Huoshui using her mind.
"You can draw a lottery! For example, you can use your merit points to draw items from the mall or skills from the small world!"
Huoshui explained cheerfully.
"A lottery? What are the rules?"
While Gu Qingcheng was asking, she opened her personal panel.
Her personal attribute values appeared on the virtual system panel.
There are no changes in categories such as appearance, IQ, etc., except for the addition of a "merit value".
This time the amount of merit directly reached 1132 points.
More than a thousand points? Is this the merit I gained from saving people this time?
That's not right.
Although Gu Qingcheng was extremely busy in the past week, she still had a rough idea of how many people she had saved.
There should be about 300 to 500! After all, she was alone, working day and night, and the number of injured people she could rescue was limited.
Some of them were just external injuries and not life-threatening.
"Your Majesty, that's not how merit is calculated. When you save a person, you might be saving a whole family."
"Moreover, you did good deeds in your previous worlds and accumulated merits."
"It's just that the quantity was too small at that time, or you didn't get it directly, so the 'merit value' category was not triggered."
Huoshui explained patiently, "But our system is a formal system, and we will never miss any numbers or lie. We will have your numbers recorded!"
"Also, do you remember the popular science articles you posted online before? Many netizens followed your methods and were saved because of them."
Behind these people, there is one or even multiple families.
Calculated in this way, Gu Qingcheng directly received more than a thousand points of merit! Gu Qingcheng nodded slowly.
"Your Majesty, do you want to draw a lottery? It only takes ten points of merit each time!"
"There are no empty prizes like 'Thank you for your patronage' or 'Better luck next time' in our lottery. As long as you draw, you will win a prize!"
Huoshui was trying hard to promote it.
"How do you draw the lottery? Let me see!" Gu Qingcheng asked calmly, pretending to be curious.
"Okay, wait a minute!"
Huoshui thought he had successfully recommended the product and quickly called up the lottery app.
Ahem, there is no fancy setting, just a very primitive big turntable.
The turntable is divided into several small sectors, and each slender sector has prizes such as whitening pills, slimming cream, and awakening pills written on it.
Gu Qingcheng took a quick look, and when her eyes passed over some of the prizes, her pupils changed slightly.
However, she did not show it, and the subtle change was only fleeting.
"Your Majesty, would you like to draw a lottery?"
Disaster is coming.
"No!"
Gu Qingcheng decisively refused.
Huoshui: ...Then why did you ask me to create a small program? Just to tease me?
Gu Qingcheng didn't care about Huoshui's little emotion and directly threw it into the small dark room with her mind.
After chatting for a while, Gu Qingcheng successfully got down the mountain and came to a temporary resettlement site.
The resettlement site at this time was no longer as simple as it was on the first and second days.
There are professional outdoor tents and piles of supplies.
Volunteers from all over the country, private rescue organizations, etc., were also in place in excess.
To borrow a term from a certain movie, this is called "saturation rescue."
"Hello, can you give me some water and food?"
Gu Qingcheng came to a volunteer and spoke softly.
Her quick-drying clothes were completely unsightly, and the big dark circles under her delicate face showed her fatigue!
"Yes! We still have hot water! How about we make you some instant food?"
When the volunteer saw Gu Qingcheng's appearance, he knew that she was tired and hungry, so he hurriedly spoke enthusiastically.
"It's all right! Thank you!"
Gu Qingcheng didn't hesitate and sat down on the folding stool.
"Where did you come from, little girl?"
The volunteer brought a bucket of instant noodles, tore off the lid, poured hot water into it, and started asking questions.
The volunteer may not know how many people Gu Qingcheng has saved, but in his opinion, a little girl who can run to such a dangerous place, her behavior itself is worthy of awe.
"Yingshan Village!"
Gu Qingcheng first took a bottle of mineral water and drank it down with gulps.
Her answer was very casual, but the volunteers were a little surprised: that village is a severely affected area.
The road was only opened two days ago, allowing a large number of rescue workers and large equipment to enter.
This girl has already come down from above.
She, she——
"When did you come?"
"Yingshan Village? Three days ago. If I came to Shu, I would have arrived that night!"
Gu Qingcheng drank half a bottle of water and only then did she feel some strength.
Her eyes were fixed on the bucket of instant noodles, as if this was the most important thing at this moment.
After hearing Gu Qingcheng's answer, the volunteers looked at her with admiration.
She arrived on the day of the earthquake and went directly into the most dangerous area. This girl is amazing!
"Eat quickly! We have a car at the resettlement site that can take you back to the city."
"Are you exhausted? You have dark circles under your eyes. Let's go back to the city and have a good rest!"
"... And thank you!"
When the volunteer said the last sentence, he used his hometown dialect with a Sichuan accent.
"You're welcome!"
Gu Qingcheng responded calmly, but her eyes were fixed on her instant noodle bucket.
volunteer:……
The touching atmosphere suddenly became a little subtle.
"Delicious! Finally, I can eat something hot!"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Gu Qingcheng didn't notice the volunteer's expression. She finished the instant noodles quickly and elegantly.
When the warm soup enters the stomach, the whole person feels inexplicably comfortable and satisfied.
The volunteers, who originally felt it was strange, were filled with emotion and gratitude after hearing Gu Qingcheng's words.
I haven't been able to eat a hot meal for several days. It's too hard! When he saw Gu Qingcheng was shaking when she stood up, he quickly reached out to help her.
The car came and the volunteers helped Gu Qingcheng into the car.
Gu Qingcheng did not refuse. She was really tired. Her legs felt like they were filled with lead or noodles, heavy and weak.
"Hey, Boss, isn't that the little beauty?"
"She's good-looking, that's all. There's always someone waiting for her when she gets in the car!"
In the third row of the three-compartment commercial vehicle, a young man with dyed yellow hair saw this scene and couldn't help but complain.
"Stop talking!"
Yu Zeqi glanced ahead, his eyes passing over Gu Qingcheng's tired face.
He also did not ignore that Gu Qingcheng's clothes were covered in dirt and blood.
Her hands and feet were also shaking slightly.
This is a symptom of being overly tired.
Although I don't know what Gu Qingcheng did specifically, she must have worked very hard in the disaster area this week! This alone is enough to make people respect her.
And the volunteer who supported her had only admiration in his eyes without any other emotions. Yu Zeqi knew that his stupid friend was wrong!
The yellow-haired Chen Chen sensed Yu Zeqi's dissatisfaction, and quickly reached out and made a zipper gesture on his mouth, completely silencing him.
Gu Qingcheng was seated in the second row. As soon as she sat down, she leaned back and fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Chen: ...Oh my god, I fell asleep in one second!
Yu Zeqi: "She is exhausted! She probably hasn't had a good sleep for several days!"
After listening to Yu Zeqi's words, Chen Chen leaned out of the back seat and observed Gu Qingcheng closely, then nodded slowly, "Boss, I misunderstood!"
She did not act recklessly because of her beauty, and she came to the disaster area not to show off but to really save people.
"This little girl is great!"
Chen Chen sat back in his chair and whispered to Yu Zeqi, "Boss, look at her. She's good-looking, capable, and has a positive outlook—"
He is simply an excellent candidate.
Chen Chen recalled the scene of his first meeting with Gu Qingcheng, and inexplicably felt that she was very similar to his boss.
It’s not the appearance, but the temperament that comes from the bones.
Confident! Arrogant! I can't say I look down on everyone, but I always look down on everyone here as if they are just ordinary people!
The eldest son in our family has been a child of other families since he was young, and is the king of the children in the compound.
When they grew up, they became extremely outstanding and became the leaders of their generation.
And what about this little girl? Does she also come from a wealthy family?
Gu Qingcheng?
Where is there a big family with the surname Gu? Even if he is not from a big family, he is better than the one with the surname Mo.
Tsk tsk, she has the air of a nouveau riche, as if she is afraid that others don’t know that she is a rich second-generation.
If he had to choose, Chen Chen felt that this little beauty was more suitable than Mo Qiwen.
Chen Chen's thoughts began to diverge and develop in a weird direction! Yu Zeqi: ...Forget it, I'll be stupid, but I'm still obedient.
However, this girl named Gu Qingcheng is indeed very special.
Yu Zeqi closed his eyes and began to take a nap.
The business car arrived in the city. Gu Qingcheng found a hotel, booked a standard room, and began to wash up.
In the past week, she had neither the conditions nor the time to wash.
Her long hair already smelled and her clothes were filthy.
She stayed in the bathroom for more than half an hour, using more than half of the shampoo, shower gel, etc. provided by the hotel, and finally walked out refreshed.
While wiping his hair with a towel, Gu Qingcheng plugged in his cell phone.
Turn on the phone! Then, the beeping sound started.
There are N missed calls and countless text messages.
Gu Qingcheng continued to wipe her hair while checking them one by one.
In addition to her family, roommates, counselors, professors, etc. all called her and sent her text messages.
Gu Qingcheng took a quick look and made sure that there was nothing important before calling her father's cell phone.
After a few beeps, the other end finally picked up.
Before Gu Qingcheng could say anything, someone on the other end started talking, "Sister! Why did you call home just now?"
"How are you? Are you not hurt? Are you okay over there? When will you be back?!"
"Oh! By the way, our little restaurant is very popular..."
