Chapter 2 Getting up

The sudden countdown on death made Gu Yue stunned for a long time before he digested it.

"Although I just learned that I would die suddenly anytime and anywhere, I can't be so hasty at this point anytime and anywhere? I met a beautiful girl on the road and just glanced at me in a hurry, but after she ran away, I was going to die?!"

Gu Yue tried to communicate and discuss with the system in her mind, but unfortunately she did not respond at all, and even greeted the whole system family without any help.

"I made such a mess for me, but I only had three days left! Is it fun to play with me? Who am I trying to provoke whom?!" Gu Yue became more and more angry as she thought about it, and she was urged to kill her head.

"Alarm: The host is overly emotional and exceeds the critical value of the 'heart is as calm as water' state, and now compulsory intervention is carried out."

With the cold sound, there was an inexplicable chill, which oozed out from the inside out little by little from the bones. At this moment, Gu Yue seemed to suddenly be in the Arctic Circle and was not wearing any clothes...

"It's strange, why is there a sudden gust of cold wind coming? It's so cool and comfortable." A hawker closest to Gu Yue looked around in confusion. The sudden coldness just happened to relieve the heat, but there was nothing unusual nearby.

Gu Yue was forced to calm down, "So this is what this 'heart is as calm as water' means? In other words, I can't be too angry yet! What's strange is that the chill is biting, but I don't feel any discomfort. Could it be that my body is numb?"

Gu Yue, who was thinking, glanced at the actions of the vendor beside him and confirmed that the chill could not only be felt by himself, but also affected the surrounding environment.

"Brother, did you suddenly feel a little cold?" From the previous shouts, Gu Yue had already noticed that he could understand other people's language, so he took this opportunity to start the first sentence of conversation with others in his life.

"You are calling me? Oh, yes, there was a cold wind inexplicably, it was quite comfortable." The vendor was suddenly called by someone and responded instinctively. After knowing that the source of the sound was a beggar, he did not see it at all.

"Sorry, I'm suffering from cold poison. When it attacks, it will suddenly cool down around me. Fortunately, it's hot during this time, which plays a role in understanding the heat."

This lies came out as soon as he opened his mouth, but Gu Yue didn't care at all. It was exactly the purpose of his test. It was probably like this that "the face is as thick as a wall".

"What?! Are you poisonous? You...you, stay away from me!" When the vendor heard the beggar was poisoned, he suddenly became nervous, thinking that he had suffered eight lifetimes of bad luck.

"Brother, you don't have to be nervous. My poison is unusual. The symptoms will suddenly cool down the whole body. Otherwise, I can't talk to you at this moment, right? Besides, it's a bit difficult for you to keep me away. My legs are broken, so it's really not easy to move."

Because both legs were broken, Gu Yue wanted to move and although she had not tried it, she could imagine it was difficult, so this hawker who was closest to being able to speak was very important.

"Really? Well, it seems that it's not uncomfortable to see you like this. Forget it, you are all suffering people, so it's even more difficult for you."

This sentence shows that the people in this place are quite simple, and Gu Yue believes that this can be used.

"Mr. Xie is considerate, but it's okay. I just can't support myself like you, and it's only a day to survive. By the way, who is the lady who rides a white horse just now? Do you know?"

"Oh? You came from another place, don't you know her? That's a beautiful scenery in our city!"

The hawker's attitude was obvious, so Gu Yue hurriedly asked along the topic.

"Indeed, it's no exaggeration to call it a scenery. In fact, a glance just now has been engraved in the bones for thousands of years. When you have the opportunity to brag with other beggar friends in the future, you will definitely have a face. If you know more about her, it will naturally be more convincing, right?"

"Haha, isn't it! When it comes to this lady in a radius of hundreds of miles, she must be known. She is the third lady in General Tang's mansion not far ahead. Tang Yuxing, known as "White Horse Red Makeup, Yu Luo Tianxing", is a young master of the fifth-grade Earth-level rank, especially his extraordinary shooting skills. He will definitely be the Heaven-level General of our Great Chu in the future!"

When introducing this Tang Yuxing, the vendor looked proud and expressed his words, which saved Gu Yue a lot of saliva, and unexpectedly obtained several important information.

"The fifth grade of the Earth level? There is also the Heaven level. It is probably because the heaven and earth people divide their individual strength according to some rules? The art of shooting should be literal archery? As for the Da Chu here, is it from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period or Xiang Yu's territory? Well, it is unlikely. According to the nature of this system, I have not given me any innate advantages. How could I have the opportunity to memorize history texts?"

Now that you know the name and address of the target person, this mission can be considered as the beginning. Although Gu Yue still doesn't think she has any chance, it's better to die after trying it out than to wait for death.

"Thank you, my brother, I'm really amazing. I have something to ask for. I wonder where to eat dog meat nearby? I was lucky enough to eat some on the way here. I still have a lot of thoughts. I can't help but think of it all the time, if I have the chance, I really have to eat a little more!"

Gu Yue's consistent voice and affection made the vendor feel very similar, "That's right! That fragrant meat is really greedy, but unfortunately, since there are noble people in the city who like to raise dogs, they are usually convenient and dare not do this business. Only the "Baiweilou" can be eaten in this capital, but it is too expensive, and ordinary people dare not enter. You probably have a hard time, so you should bear it."

It turns out that eating dog meat is so troublesome. As expected, the system did not leave any way for him to live. Gu Yue greeted the whole family in his heart again, but this time he learned his lesson and did not have any blood.

After asking clearly the location of "Baiweilou", Gu Yue said that she would no longer disturb the vendors' business, and after thanking again, the conversation ended.

At present, Gu Yue needs to think carefully about how to start these two tasks.

"First of all, I have only this torn clothes, a torn bowl and a copper coin. Even if I may have income in begging here, it may not be enough to pay a plate of dog meat. Moreover, this income is unstable, so the effect of continuing to beg here will not be ideal, so it can be stopped;

Secondly, the task of ‘get her…’ has obvious pitfalls. Not only does it mean it, but it also hides keywords. What does this ellipsis represent may determine the final success or failure. For example, there is actually nothing in the ellipsis, then this task is a fantasy! And if it is just the name of the ellipsis, I have actually finished the city, but the task is still in the countdown, so it is impossible to determine whether it is final settlement or submit at any time. So what we need to do now is to get as much information, items or some kind of participation from her, if we want to have such an opportunity, we must first get to her near her house;

Finally, one way to ask for it is to ask for it directly. After all, I am a beggar now. Although this is possible, the possibility is extremely low. But I still have to go there before I can make further plans. And relatively speaking, this task is a little simpler than the previous one;

At the end, if there is any fun next time, you must ignore it. If there is any beauty next time, you must turn your head and close your eyes if you miss it. Remember!

Ahem, so considering it all, what you need to do now is to go to Baiweilou to explore opportunities."

After a certain plan, Gu Yue immediately took action and carefully put the copper plate and broken bowl into his clothes. He tried to twist his body.

This body is not heavy, but his legs were unconscious and could not even change their positions by themselves. There was no other way. Gu Yue gritted his teeth and started crawling with only his hands.

Without experience or reference, Gu Yue could only try his best to use his hands to do his best, twice...

Without support and help, Gu Yue could only grit her teeth and insist on looking forward one meter and two meters...

After examining the countdown of the task, one and a half minutes passed since he had just started crawling to the present, Gu Yue climbed to the side of the road, which was next to the vendor he had just talked to.

"You're leaving?"

"Well, try your luck, I hope you have a prosperous business, brother."

"Hehe, just have a good meal, you should be careful, especially when you pass through the street."

"Yeah, yes, thank you."

Of course Gu Yue would pay great attention. He had roughly estimated that his speed was one meter per minute, and the width of the street in front of him was more than five meters, not to mention that there were no traffic lights here...

After looking around carefully for a long time, Gu Yue took the first hand without any carriage and horses in his eyes.

Three minutes passed without realizing it. Perhaps because he was in a hurry, his movements naturally accelerated. He had already climbed across the middle line of the street. It seemed that this was the first time crossing the road, so there would be no more shock.

"Alarm: Two fast horses are heading towards the host. According to the host's current speed, it is expected that a collision will occur in 15 seconds, 14 seconds, 13 seconds, 12 seconds..."

Gu Yue was stunned on the spot, "What's the use of the alarm I want to hear fifteen seconds in advance?"

"Does go! Dos go! I can't stop!" A woman's scream came in advance.

Gu Yue had no other way, so he used all his strength to straighten himself and lay it flat, then buried his face on the ground to protect the back of his head with his arms.

"Do not go! You are desperate!"

The woman's scream was so close that Gu Yue gritted her teeth to welcome the upcoming impact.

"Ah!" Amid the screams of passers-by and vendors around, Gu Yue's body left the ground...

"Hey?! Why didn't you feel the pain? Did you get through all the time without any struggle?!"

Just as Gu Yue was wondering, a magnetic man's voice came from above, "Is it okay, little brother?"
