Chen Shuiyi left with the wooden carving of the mountain god and the warm jade, turning back every few steps.
"Miss, we really have to go." The maidservant beside her said helplessly.
The two then boarded the carriage and left. As the carriage drove away, the girl opened the wooden window again and looked in the direction they had come from.
She closed the window and quietly clenched her fists as the figure gradually disappeared.
Chen Shuiyi is back!
…
Over the next few days, they encountered no more time travelers.
Liang Yu found it hard to believe; the sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn they were selling were foods that didn't exist in this world.
Any time traveler who hears about roasted sweet potatoes would sense something's wrong and come looking for them, right?
Why is it only Chen Shuiyi?
According to the laws of time travel, the capital city should have the most time travelers. Many novels are set in the capital city and the palace, but there are none here.
Absolutely impossible!
…
A temple in the desolate mountains.
Yu Luo also had the system check the number of transmigrators in the capital. He was shocked to find that there were actually thirty-two transmigrators in the capital!
So here's the question: Liang Yu and Wang Qing have been selling roasted sweet potatoes in the capital for three days now, why haven't any other time travelers come to inquire about them?
Even if they were wary of other transmigrators, it's impossible that none of the other transmigrators besides Chen Shuiyi would want to come and take a look, right?
"System, could you introduce Chen Shuiyi? From which novel is she based?"
System: "Chen Shuiyi comes from an ancient male-oriented novel called 'The Carefree Little Prince.' She is one of the concubines of the Carefree Prince. Like the prince, she comes from the modern world and is a very unique existence in the Carefree Prince's heart. However, she is also feared by the Carefree Prince. She is trapped in the Prince's mansion for her whole life and can't leave the backyard. In the end, she died in depression."
Very good, Yu Luo clenched his fist instantly.
"Is the young prince in the capital now? I'll have Liang Yu go and put a sack over him!"
System: "Host, don't be anxious. A small capital city has been combined with so many time-travel novels. There will definitely be a lot of princes, generals, and all kinds of emperors. How can they all appear? Wouldn't that be chaos?"
"So in reality, this carefree young prince does not exist, but in order to advance the plot, the novel fragments that were incorporated into the story forced Chen's father to arrange a marriage for Chen Shuiyi with a prince."
"It's just that the prince is a bit old, even older than Prince Xuan."
The system's voice grew softer and softer.
Very well, so you're the old prince? An old bull trying to seduce a young girl, wanting to marry a fifteen-year-old!
Another day, I'll have Lin Anniang go over there and break that old prince's legs!
Even with his leg broken, the old prince could still take a concubine, so this method still had significant flaws.
Yu Luo quickly regained her composure, pinching the gray dumpling beside her thoughtfully.
There are over thirty time travelers in the capital, but none of them have shown up yet, nor have they sent any messages to Liang Yu...
Could it be that the evil spirit hiding in the palace has discovered the existence of the time traveler?
Upon further reflection on what had happened in Qingcheng, Yu Luo understood everything.
The transmigrators must have considerable luck. Since there are people in the capital who can see luck through demons and monsters, they may have already tied up those transmigrators.
As for why Chen Shuiyi wasn't discovered, Yu Luo thought it was very likely that after she transmigrated, she never left her home and never showed her face, which is why she wasn't discovered.
So, where were the other thirty-odd time travelers taken?
In a place like the capital, the ability to make over thirty people of considerable status disappear without a trace must require immense power.
Could the mastermind behind this be an evil spirit hiding in the capital?
Evil spirits must rely on humans to exercise power, so is that human the emperor?
This makes sense; some time travelers must have transmigrated into the bodies of concubines in the emperor's harem, or abandoned concubines in the cold palace...
Without the emperor's permission, who would dare to kidnap these people?
But that's not necessarily true. All of this is just her speculation. Maybe the time traveler in the harem is actually doing well.
"System, what do you think the outcome would be if I faced off against that evil spirit from the capital?"
She subconsciously kneaded the gray ball in her hand and heard it chirping.
The system replied, "It can't do anything to you, but you also can't easily and decisively eliminate that evil spirit."
Yu Luo understood. The system was saying that she couldn't deal with the other party decisively, so what if she took things slowly and then delivered a fatal blow?
Therefore, her side is still stronger. No wonder the system kept saying that all the demons and evil spirits in this world were false gods after it bound her to the system, and most of them didn't even have the strength of a primary god.
As for the thirty-odd transmigrators, she wasn't too worried at the moment. The fact that the system could find these people meant that none of the transmigrators were in any danger.
The mastermind behind this hasn't taken the lives of these transmigrators for so long, perhaps because they want to personally absorb their luck, or perhaps they have other interests to gain.
In short, she can have someone set up a plan.
