PFC Chapter 942 The Grave Robbers' Chronicles 30
Chapter 942 The Grave Robbers' Chronicles 30
Mu Lianyi was at her wit's end and on her deathbed.
She discovered a rift that led to another world, and after much hesitation, she decided to take the original owner of this body with her and take a gamble.
Let's take a gamble and wait until Mu Lianyi dies.
A child who still needs to be fed will eventually become food for monsters in this place.
But if we take a gamble, perhaps we can have a sliver of hope of survival.
That gap is the one inside the bronze door.
Every patriarch of the Zhang family had to enter the bronze gate to guard it, where they faced the demonic beasts that emerged from the crack.
Since they are mindless monsters, they can still be dealt with.
When Mu Lianyi brought the original owner here, she herself was clinging to her last breath.
They only managed to leave a mark of reincarnation at the edge of the crevice, using their own and the original owner's blood essence, as well as the price of burning their souls.
Thinking that one day, if the original owner could survive, she would also have the opportunity to learn about her background and origins, which would also be a final thought for her daughter.
After Mu Lianyi died, her body automatically dissipated into the world.
The original owner of this body was kicked out of the Bronze Gate by the Heavenly Dao, as it was not a suitable place for a small child to survive.
The fact that the world consciousness accepted this outsider and safely sent her out is already an act of utmost kindness.
After reviewing the memories, Gu Wusi finally understood the original owner's background.
However, Mu Lianyi miscalculated. This was an ordinary world where cultivation was not possible, so how could the original owner, an ordinary person, have come here?
But then I thought, at least she lived for more than twenty years longer and still grew up being pampered.
The mark of reincarnation naturally dissipated into nothingness after she withdrew her hand.
However, Gu Wusi glanced at the task progress bar.
"Xiao Qi, I know about my background now, how come you've only completed 90% of the mission?"
Xiao Qi: "Host, the original owner was sent to an orphanage when she was a child, and there is a cause and effect involved."
"So? Now that I know my origins, I still have to settle my karmic debts?"
"Hehe, host, you don't have anything else to do anyway, so I estimate you'll get a high score this time."
"Can it be higher than the previous ones?"
"Hmm...that's considered high."
Gu Wushang thought for a moment: "What about clues? All I know is that it's someone with no blood relation. How am I supposed to find them?"
"Give it to my host, I'll go talk to the Heavenly Dao and try to get some information out of you."
"alright."
Gu Wusi came to her senses and noticed that Zhang Qiling had been standing not far away.
She walked over, her eyes fixed on the direction they had come from: "Do you know when this door will open?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiling simply shook his head.
"Where will you stay here? You're not going to sleep on the floor every day, are you?"
"..."
Gu Wusi looked around: "What do you usually eat? Are there any mushrooms here?"
"..."
"Where do you take a shower? Do you have any clean clothes here?"
"..."
Zhang Qiling remained silent in the face of her question.
If it were someone else, I'd even want to ask, "Are you being polite?"
He was silent for a while, then turned and walked in one direction, only to turn back after a few steps.
Gu Wusi realized this meant he was being told to catch up.
She followed without hesitation.
The two hadn't walked far when they came across a place with a sense of everyday life.
There are wooden houses, land, and two ponds behind, one large and one small.
It seems this is where Zhang Qiling stays whenever he comes to guard the gate.
Although it looks like we won't starve, the conditions are a bit too rudimentary.
They had to rely on themselves for everything, and resources were very limited; they probably had nothing at all.
In addition, having to deal with monsters emerging from the rift every now and then is really not a good job.
Thinking back to the last time I entered the Bronze Gate, the crack was caused by Xiao Qi, who absorbed the energy inside and upgraded the system by two levels to mend the crack.
I don't know if we can do it this way this time. Let's wait and see when Xiaoqi comes back.
Zhang Qiling led the person to the place, and then sat on a wooden bench in front of the wooden house, lost in thought.
Gu Wusi then realized that the crack could be seen from here.
His job was basically to stay here every day.
She went into the wooden house and found only a broken wooden bed. She pursed her lips and took a stool out of her storage space.
Seeing that she had somehow gotten a stool, Zhang Qiling, who was about to get up and give up the stool, stopped in his tracks, surprised for a moment, and then stopped paying attention.
Gu Wusi and Zhang Qiling sat on either side of the wooden house, like door gods, sitting and guarding the entrance.
One stared blankly, the other looked down at their phone.
Xiaoqi isn't here, and there's no signal on my phone now.
She can only play single-player games to pass the time.
So, from then on, various sounds from the game could be heard from time to time in this quiet place.
Even Zhang Qiling, lost in thought, couldn't completely empty his mind.
He turned to look at the person next to him.
"What are you looking at?" Gu Wusi sensed it and asked him directly.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qiling turned back.
"You don't think I'm too noisy when I play games, do you?"
Gu Wusi seemed to know what he was thinking.
He still didn't answer; he really is a silent type.
Being around this person makes me talk more.
"If you don't answer, it means you won't argue." Gu Wusi smiled and continued playing.
Zhang Qiling remained unmoved, feeling that even if he spoke, she wouldn't stop.
He was right. Gu Wusi played the game for more than three hours before stopping and putting his phone in his pocket.
Actually, her phone had just run out of battery, so she put it in her spatial storage for Yunshang to charge.
She turned to the person next to her: "Are you hungry? What would you like to eat?"
Zhang Qiling turned his head, remained silent for a few seconds, then stood up and walked towards the pool behind the wooden house.
She asked him what he wanted to eat, saying it was her treat.
But judging from this situation, does he really intend to cook for himself?
However, Gu Wusi probably wouldn't be able to stomach Zhang Qiling's cooking.
Thinking of this, she quickly chased after him.
Then, we saw Zhang Qiling go down into the big pool and catch fish.
The other small pool was probably used for bathing.
Gu Wusi squatted down on the bank and splashed water to wash his hands: "Are the fish here free-range or wild?"
"Yes, I have both." Zhang Qiling answered this.
Upon hearing this, she didn't ask how he knew about his persistent amnesia.
"The water here is actually suitable for raising fish. What kind of fish? I like to eat sea bass."
"Hmm." He remained as sparing with his words as ever.
Hmm, is it there or not?
But soon, he threw a sizable bass ashore, and Gu Wusi knew what his "hmm" meant.
She wandered around and actually found some edible mushrooms.
This place can be used for farming, fish farming, and mushroom cultivation, probably to prevent the gatekeeper from starving.
However, time seems to flow faster here than outside.
