"This is a bus..."
Having taken a bus for the first time, Qi Zixiao followed Lin Fan's instructions, put in two yuan, and casually found a seat, feeling very novel.
The vehicle rumbled, and the people inside were bustling, some playing with their phones, others fast asleep.
The buildings outside the window were constantly 'retreating'...
All of this made Qi Zixiao feel novel and surprised.
"This bus... what exactly is it?"
"There isn't a trace of True Essence fluctuation, yet its belly can carry so many people forward. Even if the speed isn't fast, it's already quite magical."
"This world is indeed not so simple..."
She now knew that what she was riding was a bus, but she didn't know what a bus was or how it worked.
After all, Lin Fan's videos couldn't explain everything in detail. At this moment, Qi Zixiao could be described as "knowing what it is, but not knowing why it is."
In short...
Everything was novel.
Following the instructions in the video, she got off at the appropriate stop and then walked to the construction site...
Although Qi Zixiao had hardly ever left the Holy Land, she had no problem with directions and was clever enough to learn by analogy.
Therefore, with Lin Fan's videos in hand, she quickly arrived at the place.
The video also introduced Liu Dezhu, but Qi Zixiao didn't rush to find him. Instead, she watched from a distance, watching the people in the construction site, busily working.
Then, she hesitated.
Moving bricks?!
So, this is what they call moving bricks?!
"One yuan per brick, and a bus ride costs two yuan..."
"If I had True Essence, I could move hundreds or thousands of bricks with a wave of my hand, but to move them one by one with this mortal body, wouldn't that be a waste of my limited life?!"
The efficiency was too low!
In Qi Zixiao's view, this was simply a waste of life.
"There should be other ways, other ways to make money more efficiently..."
She didn't alarm anyone and turned to leave.
Different people would choose different methods.
Lin Fan had no choice, no background, so he could only choose these more familiar and stable jobs.
But Qi Zixiao was different.
She had never worked before and didn't know what kind of jobs in this world could make money, but she just felt that moving bricks... was not good!
She should be able to find a more efficient and suitable job for herself.
"I should go back to my residence and then learn more about this world."
"That guy said there's something called Baidu, where you can search for anything?"
She returned the way she came.
Qi Zixiao took out her phone and was about to search for ways to make money quickly when she suddenly noticed a Feixin notification.
She clicked it open and saw that someone named 'Xiao Wan' wanted to add her as a Feixin friend.
She casually clicked 'Accept,' and within seconds, the other party sent a message.
Xiao Wan: "Wow, little brother, is your Moments all pictures of yourself? So handsome?"
"Interesting..."
Qi Zixiao's attention was drawn: "Is this what that guy was talking about, a means of 'telepathic communication' in this world? Even if the other party is extremely far away, they can still have real-time conversations?"
A sense of curiosity arose, naturally leading to a desire to understand.
Qi Zixiao directly replied with a voice message, "It's me, who are you, and where are you?"
Don't ask why she didn't use text; the answer is she doesn't know how to type.
Xiao Wan quickly responded with text: "My name is Xiao Wan. I originally wanted to add my blind date, but it seems I added the wrong person. But, handsome little brother, you're so handsome, I like you so much..."
Qi Zixiao felt goosebumps all over her body: "..."
Are the people in this world so direct?
Moreover, a woman is telling me she likes me?!
Ew…
She immediately asked, "I'm asking where you are."
Xiao Wan: "Ah, I forgot to say, I'm in Mount Wuyi... I'm a kindergarten teacher, and I love children the most."
"Look, this is a photo of me with the children. What do you think?"
The other party sent a photo of a cute and quite pretty girl with a group of children in a kindergarten.
Qi Zixiao didn't know what a kindergarten was, but she could roughly understand what the other party meant.
Wants to become a Dao companion?
That guy probably doesn't have a Dao companion, right?
Suddenly, Qi Zixiao had a mischievous idea.
If I really help that guy find a Dao companion, will he be shocked when we switch back next time?
"Not bad!"
She replied.
Xiao Wan seemed very happy and sent a smiling face emoji: "Thank you, but I have to go teach the children now. Talk to you later."
"Okay."
The casual chat ended.
Qi Zixiao became even more interested in the magic of Feixin and mobile phones.
In fact, not to mention someone like her who transmigrated from the cultivation era, even modern people felt extraordinarily magical when chat tools like QQ first came out.
Many people could even chat all night long...
After the unexpected chat, Qi Zixiao pondered the other functions of Feixin.
She didn't randomly chat with people but found the Moments function that Lin Fan had mentioned before and opened it.
"That guy said Moments can kill time and keep me from being too lonely?"
After opening it, the first thing Qi Zixiao saw made her narrow her eyes slightly.
"If I haven't misunderstood this..."
She was more accustomed to using traditional characters, but she didn't not recognize all simplified characters. At this moment, looking at a Moment posted by a friend named Wu Guodong, she was no longer calm.
It was a picture!
The picture contained a portrait, with a paragraph of text below.
Qi Zixiao could barely recognize the general meaning.
"Wanted notice?
The gist is that this extremely vicious criminal who has raped and killed several people has fled to this area. Anyone who can provide information will be rewarded with... 50,000 yuan?"
Fifty thousand yuan?!
This job is much more efficient than moving bricks!
Qi Zixiao immediately memorized the 'portrait'.
"If I can find this person... then I won't have to worry about not having money, right?"
How to find someone?
Qi Zixiao is currently unable to use the True Essence that originally belonged to her, but her spiritual sense remains. Simply put, after cultivators reach a certain level, they all have a sense of 'seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster'.
Moreover, this sense is not directly related to True Essence, but to the soul.
Therefore, she still has some 'sense' of seeking good fortune and avoiding disaster.
So, can she use this ability to find that person?
Qi Zixiao is not sure if she can succeed.
After all, she cannot arbitrarily define these two points, good and bad.
Simply put...
Would a reward of 50,000 yuan be considered 'good fortune'?
Or, would that wanted criminal be considered 'bad luck'?
If so, as long as one of these conditions is met, the difficulty of finding that wanted criminal should not be too great.
Qi Zixiao pondered for a moment and decided to give it a try!
A new week has begun, please give some recommendation votes.
