Chapter 32: 100 Days of Cooking for the Villain Master - Day 99
After Guiqu dealt with those scumbag old guys at the cave entrance, he immediately rushed to find No. 99 and Zhao Miaomiao.
Then, by the Forgetful River, he saw a man holding Zhao Miaomiao.
Guiqu didn't react immediately and took out his judge's pen, ready to attack the man, "Stop! Put this girl down!"
Number 99 said helplessly: "It's me."
Guiqu: “Hmm?”
No. 99: "Milk baby."
Guiqu: “Ah?!
Baby, how did you become like this?"
Guiqu couldn't help but walk over and observe No. 99 carefully. Suddenly, he found that No. 99's soul was a little different. The originally weak and tiny soul was now extremely powerful, as if it had swallowed a lot of tonics at once.
But for the system, there is no such thing as a tonic. It is nothing more than the golden fingers set by Yuexian, which can slightly improve it...
Guiqu thought about it, and his face immediately changed. He asked No. 99: "Baby, did you steal Yuexian's golden finger?!"
No. 99 remained silent.
Guiqu asked again: "Is that so?
If Yuexian finds out about this, you're doomed!"
No. 99: "Then let's wait until the main system finds out."
Guiqu said anxiously: "Why wait?
If you embezzle those cheat codes, then other systems and other hosts will be unusable.
With so many systems, so many hosts, and so many worlds, there must be someone who needs to use cheat codes!
So they will find out about you soon.
Once this is exposed, you will be directly destroyed by Yuexian!"
No. 99 had no regrets. He glanced at Zhao Miaomiao in his arms and said, "There's no other way. I have to protect the host."
Guiqu also looked at Zhao Miaomiao, and was shocked again, and asked hurriedly: "How did her soul get damaged?!
What happened to you two?"
No. 99 didn't care about his own affairs at all. When he heard that Zhao Miaomiao was in trouble, he hurriedly asked Guiqu: "What happened to the host?
What does it mean to have damaged soul?
We fell into the Lethe River, and then I used the golden finger to rescue the host, does this matter?"
Guiqu was surprised: "What? You fell into the Wangchuan River?!
No wonder her soul is like this."
Then Guiqu began to explain: "Let's use an analogy. If the human soul is a natural jade artifact, then at this moment, cracks have appeared on this girl's jade artifact.
That’s called a damaged soul.”
No. 99 asked worriedly, “How could this happen?
No wonder the host said she always wanted to sleep, is it because of this?"
Guiqu nodded, “Yes.
People with damaged souls may be born physically weak at best, or lose their senses, memory, intelligence, etc. at worst.
If it's more serious, the soul won't be able to reincarnate."
99 was anxious: "What should I do? Do you have any ideas?"
Guiqu thought for a moment and said, "I have never encountered such a situation, but Mengpo knows a lot, maybe she has a solution.
Let's go find Meng Po and Yama first."
Just as Guiqu finished speaking, a bolt of lightning suddenly descended from the sky and landed straight in the underworld.
Guiqu and No. 99 were both shocked.
Number 99 hugged Zhao Miaomiao tightly and asked, "What's going on?"
Gui Qu looked at the direction where the thunder was coming from, which was the direction of Yama's palace, and said, "Yan Wang remembered that he was going through a tribulation."
Number 99 was surprised. "Now? Experiencing tribulations in this underworld?"
Guiqu didn't say much and ran directly towards the place where the thunder fell. Seeing this, No. 99 caught up with him.
In front of the King of Hell's Palace, Meng Po has been guarding here.
When he saw Guiqu coming, he said, "Why are you here so late? You are late again."
Guiqu: ……………………
Can we not mention this matter anymore!
Then he justified himself, "I had a reason this time. I went to take care of some annoying mortals.
So it’s not late.”
Meng Po ignored Gui Qu and glanced at No. 99 behind him, wondering, "How did Yue Xian's thing turn into a human?"
Guiqu also turned around to look at No. 99 and sighed, "Oh, it's a long story."
Then Meng Po looked at Zhao Miaomiao in No. 99's arms, frowned and said, "This child's soul is damaged."
No. 99 asked Meng Po: "Are you Meng Po?
Guiqu said you know a lot, so do you have a way to repair the host's soul?"
Meng Po frowned, walked closer to Zhao Miaomiao, touched Zhao Miaomiao's heart, and was immediately bounced away by a force.
Then he shook his head and said, “Not really.
Her soul was shaken and torn apart.
The only solution right now is to keep it."
No. 99 asked hurriedly: "How to raise it?"
Meng Po thought for a moment and said, "You are Yuexian's system, you should know.
In Yuexian's system, there is a type of world called the mirror world."
No. 99 nodded, "Yes, I know the classification of this world.
These worlds are parallel worlds built based on the world in which each bound host lives.
Each bound host has its own mirror world.
Even if the host accumulates all the merits in the end, he still cannot wash away his sins.
The main system will lock these hosts into their mirror world, making them think they have been reborn.
Then let them live out their lives in that mirror world.
But what does this world have to do with the host's soul?"
Meng Po said: "Take her back to that world and let her do what she wants.
Repay kindness with kindness and repay hatred with hatred.
Only after completing these can she let go of everything.
Only by untying the knot in her heart can I mend her soul."
Hearing what Meng Po said, No. 99 hesitated a little, "Do you want to... help the host to take revenge in that world?"
Meng Po nodded, "Yes, this is her heart knot.
Her heart knot is unresolved, and I can't mend her soul.
She would be on guard against me so that no one could get into her heart."
No. 99 lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a moment of silence, he looked up and said, “No.
That mirror world is a virtual world that does not exist.
I don't want the host to take revenge directly in a non-existent parallel world.
I hope she can choose for herself whether to be reborn and return to her real past world to live a good life, or to seek revenge.
Whatever the case, I hope she has the choice.
I don't want to make the decision for her and let her let go of this grudge.
I don’t want to, and I can’t, do that.”
