Chapter 420 The host moved Tong very much
The system seemed to have been paused, and it froze in my mind for a long moment. The multicolored lights on my body were frozen.
At a time when education value is at its lowest point, the host actually wants to upgrade it?
Didn’t the host see that long string of negative numbers?
Even the system itself was terrified, fearing that the host would not be able to pay back the money and would end up becoming a deadbeat, wanted by the Lord God, and chased by the entire universe.
But why am I still so touched?
"Host, are you sure you want to upgrade me?"
"Tell me, upgrading you right now is quite important. After all, there's a system out there waiting to take my life!"
Regarding the pill today, she could tell from Gu Yuchuan's tense profile and cold eyes that he had been tricked by his own system.
The system doesn't look very smart, but I didn't expect it to have the idea of killing someone with a borrowed knife.
To be honest, if it weren't for the coincidence, I might have made it happen.
The system suddenly understood.
Yes, there is a system watching nearby, which may threaten the host's life at any time.
It is now bound to Gu Jiayue. If the host is killed by the system, it will not suffer any consequences.
Now it has lost contact with the main system. If Gu Jiayue dies, it will either be exiled to the boundless universe until its energy is exhausted and disappears, or it will be captured by the main god and scrapped.
It doesn't want to disappear, and it doesn't want to be scrapped!
The only way is to protect the host!
"If you want to reach level 35, you need 880,000 education points!"
The system's voice was a little cautious, as if it was afraid of scaring the host.
880,000?
Gu Jiayue pulled a wry smile at the corner of her mouth.
"Xiao Du, do you want your grave to face north and south, or south and north?"
Given the current situation, she can't even come up with 80,000 yuan in education value, let alone 880,000 yuan.
"Borrow! Apply for another loan of education value for me! You must raise this level and then eat up that unlucky system!"
Gu Jiayue's tone was filled with unquestionable determination.
This time, the system didn't react immediately, its voice tinged with embarrassment. "Host, based on your level, your loan limit is only 100 Education Points left."
What?
Gu Jiayue suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Look at what else I can pledge. Can't I borrow money like this?"
The system's voice lowered. "This is also to prevent the host from skipping quests and spending without limits!"
That makes sense.
Gu Jiayue sighed.
If you can advance points unlimitedly, who would still think about doing tasks?
Anyway, just use it first. It’s more comfortable every day. As for whether I have to pay it back later, right?
It doesn't matter.
It's just one life anyway, and it's already paid for. If you enjoy it for a while longer, it's still a profit.
Education value, education value, how to obtain education value quickly!
Are we really so cruel as to force sick children to study?
Are there any other ways besides this method?
No.
She is bound to the education system, and the way to obtain information is simple, which is to spread knowledge and let others learn.
Gu Jiayue suddenly had an idea!
Yes, as long as you spread knowledge, you can gain educational points, and the system does not specify what kind of knowledge to spread!
She remembered that she had gained corresponding education points when she taught the villagers how to farm and how to make paper.
As long as she can help others learn something they didn't know before, she can get educational points!
After realizing this, Gu Jiayue's frown gradually relaxed and a light appeared in her eyes.
As a robot, Li Si doesn't need to sleep.
So after receiving the task conveyed by the system, he went straight out of his house, braved the drizzling cold rain, and went to the gate of the county government office to wait for Zheng Qinghe.
The sky gradually brightened.
The rain hasn't stopped yet, it's still dripping and it feels cold on my body.
When the yamen runners came to take up their duties, they saw from afar a blurry figure standing motionless next to the stone lions at the gate of the county government office.
Only when I got closer did I recognize it was Li Si.
Because of the rain all night, his clothes were all wet, his hair stuck to his forehead, water droplets dripped down his cheeks, and a small wet mark appeared on the ground under his feet.
Thinking that the shopkeeper had previously sent a lot of food to the county government, the yamen runners were very polite to him.
"Manager Li, you are here so early, is there something you need to take care of?" The leading yamen runner asked with a bow, his tone somewhat kind.
"I need to find the county magistrate!" Li Si's voice was steady, and no emotion could be heard. There was only a barely perceptible hint of urgency in his eyes.
"It's still early now, the county magistrate may not have gotten up yet. Why don't you wait a little longer?" The bailiff advised, pointing to the dawn that had just begun to appear in the sky.
Li Si nodded and stood there waiting for a long time, but still did not see Zheng Qinghe.
He became a little anxious.
When the system issued the task to him, it added three "urgent" characters at the end, which shows how important this matter is.
He must deliver the medicinal materials to Taohua Village immediately!
"Big brother, could you please help me pass the message on again?" Li Si took a step forward, his tone pleading.
The yamen runners on duty were also a little confused.
Their county magistrate has always been diligent in his work. In the past, he would have been working in the county government office before his duty time. But now it was already past midnight and there was still no sign of him.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll go to the backyard and take a look!"
The house where the county magistrate lived was next to the county government office, with a corner door in the middle for easy entry and exit.
Moreover, because Zheng Qinghe did not bring his female relatives with him, he had already instructed the yamen runners that if there was any emergency, they could go directly to his courtyard through the corner gate to find him.
The yamen runner walked to the corner gate and heard a suppressed cough in the distance before he entered.
Intermittent and a little hoarse.
this……
He stopped suddenly, his face full of horror, his eyes fixed on the closed door.
Is the county magistrate...also infected with the plague?
What should I do?
If the county magistrate falls, who can we rely on for the tens of thousands of lives in the entire Annan County?
Just as he was hesitating, Zheng Qinghe's housekeeper Jin Bo came over and saw him lingering at the door. He asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"
The yamen runner quickly bowed, his voice trembling. "Butler Jin, a shopkeeper named Li has arrived at the front yamen gate. He's the one who sold us grain. He said he has something urgent to discuss with the county magistrate."
The shopkeeper Li who sold grain before?
Jin Bo frowned and thought about it, it seemed that there was such a person.
I remember that the adults had said before that this person was honest and wanted to make friends with him, but he seemed to be stupid and only thought about doing business, and did not respond to the adults' words.
"The master is not feeling well today. You can go and tell him to come back another day!" Jin Bo waved his hand with a bit of impatience in his tone.
The adults are feeling uncomfortable and have no intention of seeing outsiders.
"Okay, Butler Jin!" The bailiff responded and was about to turn around.
At this moment, the tightly closed door was opened with a creaky sound.
Zheng Qinghe stood inside the doorway, his face pale, his eyes slightly dark, and his voice hoarse. "Go get him."
"Sir, you are not feeling well and it is not appropriate for you to handle official business!" Jin Bo hurriedly stepped forward and tried to persuade him to go back to the house to rest.
Zheng Qinghe waved his hand and forced a reassuring smile, though it looked a little weak. "It's okay. Manager Li isn't the type to act without a purpose. He must have something important to tell me if he came looking for me. He helped us so much before, and now he has something to ask of him, we can't just ignore him."
Jin Bo opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but looking at the determined look in his master's eyes, he swallowed his words back.
He knew Zheng Qinghe's character too well, and it was difficult to change the decisions he made since childhood.
So before breaking off the engagement with the Gu family, the master and the mistress found an excuse to send him away.
But even so, after knowing the truth, he would rather give up his bright future in Kyoto and travel thousands of miles to such a place.
This shows how stubborn his son is.
Li Si walked into the yard through the corner gate. The bluestone slabs in the yard were shiny after being washed by rain.
He was about to move forward when Zheng Qinghe raised his hand to signal him to stay where he was. "Manager Li, I'm sorry, I'm not feeling well and can't be in close contact with you. Please tell me what you need and I'll see if I can help you."
There was a hint of fatigue in his voice. After he finished speaking, he couldn't help coughing twice and covered his mouth with a handkerchief.
Li Si doesn't care about these things, it doesn't matter where they are said.
"It's like this. I have a batch of medicinal herbs that was bought by Miss Gu from Taohua Village. They need to be transported there urgently to save lives. But the master ordered yesterday that we cannot leave the city at will, so I wanted to ask you for a document to leave the city."
"Medicinal herbs?" Zheng Qinghe's eyes lit up, he stood up straight, and his tone was anxious.
He remembered the prescription that Chen Ada brought back yesterday, and he specially consulted doctors in the county town. They all said clearly that this prescription is indeed useful for preventing the plague.
However, many of the medicinal ingredients written in the prescription are not available in the county town and need to be obtained from outside.
Yesterday he sent several letters to Kyoto and Juzhou Prefecture asking for medicine, but he has not received a reply yet.
If there are merchants in the county town who have these medicinal herbs, why go so far away?
"Shopkeeper Li, how many medicinal herbs do you have? Can you sell some to me?"
