Chapter 4 Systematic Point Deduction Criteria
Shen Qingqiu knew exactly what was going on in his mind. It must be because he heard Ning Yingying calling Luo Binghe affectionately that he felt this annoying junior fellow was becoming even more irritating. Shen Qingqiu had already complained countless times about the inexplicable hatred that the cannon fodder had for the protagonist in the original work, and it had never improved.
Ning Yingying was a little girl after all, so she tilted her head and asked, "Brother, what fun things do you have? Take them out and show them to me."
Ming Fan put on a smile again, took out a turquoise jade pendant from his waist, and handed it to her: "Junior sister, my family came to visit this time and brought me a lot of interesting little things. This one is particularly beautiful, I give it to you!"
Ning Yingying took it and looked carefully at the sunlight shining through the gaps between the leaves. Mingfan asked eagerly, "How is it? Do you like it?"
After spying here, Shen Qingqiu finally remembered this plot!
Oh no, he shouldn't come here, it's dangerous!
But you can't blame him for not remembering clearly. You want a person who scolds stupid authors for stupid writing to remember the ancient content at the beginning of a novel that has been serialized for four years and the timeline spans two hundred years? He just read it for twenty days, and he has long forgotten the opening part that was just for the sake of torture, okay?
As expected, Ning Yingying couldn't tell the quality of the jade pendant at all. She looked at it randomly for a while and threw it back. Mingfan's smile froze on his face. Ning Yingying wrinkled her nose and said casually, "What? This color is so ugly. It's not as good-looking as A'luo's."
This time, not only did Guang Mingfan look unhappy, but even Luo Binghe, who had always been very conscious of pretending not to exist, was slightly shocked and suddenly opened his eyes.
Ming Fan squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "...Junior brother also wears the ancient jade Buddha artifact?"
Luo Binghe hesitated for a moment, and before he could answer, Ning Yingying rushed to answer, "Of course he has it. He wears it around his neck all day long, but it's so precious that he wouldn't even let me take a look at it."
Although Luo Binghe was calm again, his expression changed at this moment, and he subconsciously grasped the jade Guanyin pendant hidden in his clothes around his neck.
Shen Qingqiu was also amazed by the IQ of many female characters in this novel.
Ning Yingying didn't consider the consequences when she said this, but she always saw Luo Binghe wearing a jade Guanyin on his body, never taking it off.
Girls always want to get their loved ones' favorite things, but Luo Binghe just won't give it to them. She was unwilling to give up, so she brought it up again.
Of course he wouldn't give it to her, okay!!! That was the money that Luo Binghe's mother, the washerwoman, had saved for most of her life and finally asked for a consecrated treasure for her son. It was a little warmth that accompanied Luo Binghe throughout his life in the dark world, and it also allowed him to redeem a little of his remaining humanity when he turned the most evil in the later period. How could he give it to others casually!
Ming Fan was angry and jealous, but in the end, the anger in Ning Yingying's words got the better of him. He took a step forward and said in a stern voice, "Junior Brother Luo is so arrogant that he even refused to let Junior Sister Ning Yingying see your jade pendant. If you keep going like this, you won't even lend a helping hand when we face a strong enemy in the future!"
What the hell is the connection between these two?
Ning Yingying had never expected it to turn out like this, and she stamped her feet anxiously: "If he doesn't want to, forget it. Senior brother, please don't bully him!"
How could Luo Binghe defeat Mingfan now? A group of lower-level disciples who served as Mingfan's lackeys surrounded him, and soon the jade Guanyin fell from his neck into Mingfan's hands. He raised it and looked at it for a while, then suddenly laughed.
Ning Yingying asked curiously, "You...what are you laughing at?"
Ming Fan threw the jade pendant into Ning Yingying's hand and said proudly, "I thought it was some rare treasure, that's why you protected it so eagerly. Junior sister, guess what? It's a cheap commodity, hahahaha..."
Ning Yingying asked in confusion: "Xibei goods? Fake?"
Luo Binghe slowly clenched his fist, with undercurrents surging in his eyes, and said word by word: "Give it back to me."
Shen Qingqiu's fingers couldn't help but flex and stretch slightly.
He naturally knew that the Jade Guanyin was a fake, and it was one of Luo Binghe's biggest anger points.
The washerwoman lived frugally, but due to her short-sightedness, she was deceived by a swindler and bought a fake product at a high price. She was heartbroken and her health deteriorated. This was undoubtedly a pain that Luo Binghe would never be able to get over. This was the only thing that Luo Binghe could never tolerate!
As a bystander, Shen Qingqiu really wanted to take action, beat Ming Fan up, snatch the jade pendant back and throw it to Luo Binghe.
And maybe in this way, Ming Fan would not completely offend Luo Binghe and could even save his life in the future.
Mingfan took the jade pendant from Ning Yingying's hand and said with disgust: "I'll give it back to you. I may have bought it cheaply at some street stall. I gave it to my junior sister because I'm afraid it will stain her." Where's your hand?" He said this without any intention of returning it.
Luo Binghe's face was tense, and he suddenly punched out with both fists, hitting the low-level disciples who were holding him.
When he was enraged, his punches and kicks were random and he just attacked randomly with the rage in his heart. At first he managed to scare those low-level disciples, but they were soon found to be much weaker. Ming Fan shouted from above: "What are you still standing there for? How dare you hit me with your fists and feet? I'll teach him what respect for the young and the old is!" They immediately regained their courage and surrounded Luo Binghe, beating him up.
Ning Yingying was stunned and shouted, "Brother! How could you do this! Tell them to stop, or else... or else I will never talk to you again!"
Ming Fan panicked: "Junior sister, don't be angry, I'll tell them not to beat this guy..." Before he could finish his words, Luo Binghe broke free from those thugs, rushed up and punched Ming Fan in the nose.
With a loud scream of "Ouch", two streams of blood immediately flowed out of Mingfan's nostrils.
Ning Yingying's eyes were full of tears, but when she saw this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Shen Qingqiu: ...Sister, do you like Luo Binghe or do you want to harm him?
Originally, Ming Fan could have let Luo Binghe go, but now that he had embarrassed himself in front of his sweetheart, he couldn't just let it go no matter what!
Seeing the two men fighting, no matter how talented Luo Binghe was, he was still young and had never studied the official classics. He was obviously being beaten unilaterally, but he gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound. Shen Qingqiu subconsciously wanted to attack. But the system burst out with a life-threatening alarm: [Serious ooc! Serious ooc! Serious ooc! Important things must be said three times! In this situation, 'Shen Qingqiu' should choose to stand aside and watch! ]
Shen Qingqiu didn't know what the consequences of breaking the rules would be, so he couldn't take the risk rashly. Just as he was getting anxious, he suddenly had an idea and came up with a compromise.
The Cangqiong Mountain School has a small magic called "Picking Leaves and Flying Flowers". It seems to be of no great use, but it is fun to watch. The original novel once described how Luo Binghe easily won the heart of a female No. 1 with it. Shen Qingqiu has been studying various secret manuals these days and has also seen the record of this small magic.
He picked up a leaf at random and poured a little spiritual power into it. He poured too much the first time and the leaf couldn't bear it and broke into pieces. The second time he succeeded. He picked it up on his fingertips and blew lightly, then swung his hand and the leaf shot out towards Ming Fan like a flying knife!
Hearing Ming Fan's long scream, Shen Qingqiu shook his hands and wiped away a drop of sweat from his forehead.
No wonder they say that a master can hurt a person with just a flower or a tree. I don't think he would have shot Ming Fan to death this time...
Luo Binghe was hit by several punches and kicks, but suddenly he felt Mingfan staggering back. He looked up and saw blood flowing from his forehead through his eyes. Unexpectedly, when Mingfan stretched out his hand, he also had a palm full of blood.
Ming Fan said in disbelief: "How dare you hurt me with a knife?!"
Ning Yingying had just seen them fighting so fiercely that she didn't dare to approach, but now she hurriedly intervened between the two of them: "No, no, Luo didn't use a knife. He didn't hurt me!"
Luo Binghe didn't know what was going on. He pursed his lips tightly and wiped the blood from his forehead. Blood was seeping out of Mingfan's back, as if he had been cut by a sword. He asked the other disciples: "Did you see it clearly just now? Did he take the knife?"
The fellow apprentices looked at each other, some shook their heads, some nodded, in a mess.
Mingfan's spoiled son had never suffered such physical pain. Seeing his hands covered in blood, he panicked. But what was puzzling was that there was no sharp weapon on the ground or on Luo Binghe's thin body. It couldn't have disappeared without a trace.
Shen Qingqiu held his breath. His vision suddenly turned red, and a line of large, suspended text popped up in front of him, a shocking blood-red color.
[Violation: ooc. B-level -10. Current B-level: 90. ]
Shen Qingqiu heaved a sigh of relief. He originally estimated that about 50 points would be deducted, or even all of it, but only 10 points were deducted. Don't expect it to be better than he thought. Now there will be a chance to swipe it back in the future. But he didn't breathe a sigh of relief for long, Ming Fan pointed at Luo Binghe and shouted: "Hit me!"
Shen Qingqiu almost vomited a mouthful of blood on his chest.
Several disciples followed the command and rushed forward. Shen Qingqiu subconsciously pulled out a few leaves and sent them all flying out.
He regretted it the moment he made the move.
What am I trying to do? Luo Binghe is the male protagonist after all. It's not uncommon for him to be surrounded and beaten before. Can he be beaten to death? !
What the hell do you care about?!
I was able to get away with it just now, but now it’s great, no one can fail to notice that something is wrong!
Several disciples were injured and didn't dare to surround Luo Binghe anymore. They surrounded Mingfan in confusion. "Brother! What happened?" "Brother, I seem to have been cut by a knife too!"
Mingfan's face was pale, and after a while he said, "Let's go!" Then he left in a mighty manner with a bunch of followers who covered their buttocks and hugged their arms. They came like the wind and left like the wind. Ning Yingying stood there blankly for a while and shouted, "A Luo, did you just drive them away?"
Luo Binghe shook his head gloomily. He stood up with difficulty, but his expression was tense. He lowered his head and bent over, searching for something on the ground. He turned over and over the fallen leaves, dead branches and spring mud.
Shen Qingqiu knew what he was looking for, naturally the jade pendant that was lost in the melee.
As a bystander, he saw clearly that Mingfan had thrown the leaf away with his arm before the fight began, and the red rope had been caught on a tall treetop above their heads. However, he was in a state of confusion, and he could not give any advice. Moreover, after the leaf flew out, he heard the heartbreaking voice of the system: "Violation: ooc. B-grid -10x6. Current B-grid: 30."
It fell below the passing line in an instant!
A leaf of love is worth 10 points? You can't do it in such a simple and crude way!
Ning Yingying didn't dare to say anything. After all, it was she who caused such trouble. If she hadn't said anything, Luo Binghe wouldn't have lost the jade pendant and got beaten. She immediately helped Luo Binghe look for it.
But of course they gained nothing until dark.
Luo Binghe stood there blankly, looking at the mess on the ground. They searched a large area of land, but still couldn't find it.
Ning Yingying was a little scared when she saw him in such a state of despair, so she held his hand and said, "A Luo, if you can't find it, forget it. I'm sorry, I'll compensate you later, okay?"
Luo Binghe ignored her, slowly pulled his hand back, lowered his head and walked out of the woods. Ning Yingying hurriedly followed.
Shen Qingqiu really admired himself. These two kids had been looking for an entire afternoon, but he just spent the entire afternoon looking at them like this...Apart from being bored, was there any other explanation?
After they walked away, he came out from his hiding place, looked up, tapped the ground with his feet, and experienced what it meant to be "as light as a swallow". He easily took down the jade pendant hanging on the treetop.
Shen Qingqiu wanted to secretly return it to Luo Binghe, but he was familiar with the nature of this system, and this would definitely be considered a violation. He didn't have any extra points to waste.
After thinking about it, Shen Qingqiu decided to keep it for the time being.
Maybe this jade pendant will be very useful in the future. For example, when the situation gets critical, take it out as a bargaining chip to exchange for life? Shen Qingqiu thought about this possibility seriously.
At this moment, a line of large green characters with a strong sense of three-dimensionality appeared before my eyes.
"Congratulations! Obtained the key item: Fake Jade Guanyin x1. Changed the plot, 'Shen Qingqiu' IQ +100. Current B-level: 130. Please continue to encourage me!"
The points that were just deducted were not only made up, but also increased!
Moreover, this Jade Guanyin, judging by the effect it had on Luo Binghe, was definitely a high-level item, used to save his life!
What a pleasant surprise!
Shen Qingqiu felt refreshed all over, and the depression he had felt after squatting in a dark place for an entire afternoon was swept away. Even the system's groaning sound, which was similar to that of Google Translate, became extremely pleasant to the ear!
Outside the woods, Luo Binghe, who had already walked out of the back mountain, slowly loosened his fist.
There were several intact green leaves in the palm of his hand, the edges of the leaves were sharp and stained with blood.
