Xia Ge, nipping at her juicy bun like a kitten, adroitly answered: “Senior Sister, I’ll tell you that I am hungry—-I’m so hungry that I think I should stop learning liandan for today……”

System: [……]

What kind of twisted logic was that?  Did personal hunger have any relation to liandan?

Of course not.

Gaze fixed on the youngster who claimed to very hungry, but was eating as the speed of a snail, Gu Peijiu replied: “I’ll give you half a stick of incense to finish eating.  Then we will begin.”

Xia Ge: “……” qaq
Gu Peijiu: “Also, don’t throw wild berries into the wastebasket.  It’s not for food, but for waste paper.”

Pecking at another bun, Xia Ge: “……oh.”

Gu Peijiu: “Xia Wuyin, you’re holding onto the Danshu.”

Xia Ge: “Senior Sister……I’m eating.”

“Yes, don’t hold a book while you’re eating.”

Xia Ge: “I……”

The young lady, elegantly dressed in white and red silk, was inscrutable and her voice emotionless: “Xia Wuyin.”

Xia Ge: “……oh.”

……why did this person have to be such a nitpicker!!!

Give me back my red hawthorn, asshole!

While Xia Ge was absorbed in liandan, Gu Peijiu was called away by a boy, dressed all in white like a funeral-goer.

Apparently, there were important matters to discuss with the senior disciples of the three peaks at the Lingxi Hall of Council.

Maybe it had something to do with a thousand demon puppets surrounding a village yesterday.

No matter.  It seemed it had nothing to do with Xia Ge.

However……

Before she departed, Gu Peijiu threw a quick glance at Xia Ge and left behind two sentences.

“Xia Wuyin, do it as I taught you.”

“The leftover materials are yours to dispose of.”

Whether it was an accident or it was intentional, Xia Ge didn’t know, but she discovered she’d been given three sets of the material.

Following the method Senior Sister had shown her, Xia Ge exploded the furnace three times in a row.  But, when she started down the mountain, she had two incomparably unsightly black pills to show for it.

Her first attempt, she hadn’t even gotten to see what a Bigu dan might look like, for the whole thing had directly deep-fried into an explosion of ash.  The second and third attempt, at least there’d been an intact corpse to pull out of the cinders.

Still, after the third explosion, the meaning of Senior Sister leaving three sets of material had suddenly dawned on Xia Ge.

Staring down at the two very large, very ugly pills in one hand, Xia Ge stroked her chin with the other: “Little puppet…”

[Hmm?]

“Just as every chef dreams that his meals will be lauded for their deliciousness, every doctor hopes to save the dying patient with their own hands, and every artist desires to have their work appreciated by like-minded people—–”

System: [……Please Speak In Human Words.]

Xia Ge continued peering at her two pills with deep affection: “The amazing divine dan I just refined deserves to be tasted by a kindred spirit.”

……no such person exists.

System: [You Must Remember You Are A Disciple Of Lingxi Sect.]

Xia Ge: “Mmm?  Whaddya mean, Lingxi disciple?”

System: [As A Lingxi Disciple, You Must Remember, At All Times, That You May Not Commit Murder For Money.]

Disbelieving, Xia Ge exclaimed: “I’m not plotting to kill someone for their property!  This dan I just made is a rejuvenating pill!”

System: [……Weren’t You Fucking Supposed To Be Refining The Bigu Dan?!]

A fraught pause, and then the System tried using reason: [Your Dan Is So Repulsive Looking, No One Will Eat It.]

Xia Ge rubbed her chin again: “You might have a point……Hey, when I shopped the points mall before, the only thing I had enough points for was steamed dumplings with free delivery……but earlier you said something about some bargains, is there something new I could actually afford?”

A little befuddled by Xia Ge’s abrupt change of subject, the system answered: [Yes.]

Putting her dan in a pocket, a compliant Xia Ge promptly opened the Points Mall, a green screen only she could perceive unfolding before her sight.  In the screen’s upper right corner, she put 0~15 for the price range and pressed ‘search.’

Instantly displayed was a disordered row of small commodities.

The first item was dumplings from Jinjiang, costing 15 points.

Xia Ge: “……”

Strange how she could not summon up any good feelings for those dumplings.

Xia Ge silently reversed the order of the items.

Now the first item was a product that cost 1 point.

A Seven X Space Aunt X Sanitary Napkin.  Xia Ge eyed it in deep contemplation.

Selling sanitary napkins for 1 point……It didn’t seem like the Points Mall’s style, selling something that cheaply.  Didn’t it go against its apparent logic?

The system felt obliged to explain: [In Consideration Of The Host’s Difficulties, Aunt X Specially Lowered The Price.]

Xia Ge: “……oh.”

Unfortunately, her current body was too malnourished and hardly growing.  She had no fucking use for such a convenient thing at the moment.

She kept looking.  Although 15 points wasn’t much, there were still some odd things available to buy.

Like ‘Mary Sue Holy Water,’ that could make a person shine with a multicolored ‘holy light.’  Or a ‘Potential Gun,’ which would cause a person to ‘burst with huge potential’ one minute after being shot with it.  Even better, a ‘Paper Pill’ that turned into a small piece of paper three minutes after being eaten……

Xia Ge became restless.  “They all look very amusing……”

Merciless, the system poured cold water on the proceedings: [Host, In View Of Long-Term Considerations, You Had Better Save Your Points.  This Is A Friendly Reminder-With Your Current Number Of Points, You Would Only Be Able To Afford 15 Aunt X Sanitary Napkins.]

Xia Ge: “……”

“All right, all right, never mind.  What time is it?  Has Ye Ze got out of class yet?”

System: [……What Are Your Intentions?]

Trying to forget her frustration with the Points Mall, Xia Ge took one of her peerlessly divine dan out of her pocket, gazing at it with concern: “If he’s been working all day, he’s probably hungry.”

[Host, If The Male Protagonist Dies, This World Will Collapse.]

Xia Ge regretfully put the pill back in her pocket: “Ahh, that’s a pity.”

System: [……]

You didn’t really want to feed Ye Ze that…….did you?!

“Ai, close friends are hard to come by in life, even harder to find are soulmates that’ll stay with you forever.”  Sighing, Xia Ge turned a corner on the mountain path, before beginning to take a shortcut to the village.  She’d only gone a few steps when she heard a sharp and nasty jeer close by.
