I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

This is the wine shop of Mingyue Tower, and it is also the official office reported by the people of Mingyue Tower, so it is not surprising that Madam Zhu is here, but why is Madam Luo also here?

Bai Ming knew about Huo Yu's unusual attitude towards Luo Qianhuai, so he just kept all kinds of doubts in his heart, waiting for him to ask in person.

Huo Yu's eyes were deep and he looked at her with a cold face, his hands behind his hands, as if waiting for her to take the initiative to explain.

Huo Yu is still willing to listen to the explanation, which is a good sign.

Luo Qianhuai worked hard to organize his words, not only to make things clear, but also to highlight the serious consequences of Yu Shen's evil deeds. More importantly, Bu Xianxian must be closely linked to the long-term peace and stability of Changling City and the official career of Lord Huo, so that he is willing to take the risk of offending the King of Jizhou and make decisions for the people.

Luo Qianhuai thought clearly and was about to speak when he suddenly heard the system prompt again.

"Dip. It has been detected that the current time is the best time for the distribution of rewards, and the rewards will be distributed now. This reward distribution adopts the self-collection mode. Since the current ability of the host is not enough to complete it independently, this system will enforce it!"

Luo Qianhuai was horrified: "System, can you be a little more discerning? The leader of the family is asking questions right in front of you. It's not too late to leave after we explain the matter clearly!"

"Use the shortcut system to reach the peak of life! Thank you for your trust and support in the shortcut system version 1.3!"

This sentence was indeed softer and clearer than the tone before the upgrade, but it did not calm the restlessness in Luo Qianhuai's heart, nor did it change the ending of her being kicked out of her body.

In the eyes of Huo Yu and all the soldiers, Luo Qianhuai's momentum suddenly increased. His eyes were as indifferent as the autumn water in the sky. He suddenly stepped forward and was behind Huo Yu in an instant.

Only then did the soldiers react, and while shouting: "Protect your lord!" they rushed towards her, but how could they make it in time?

When Huo Yu passed Luo Qianhuai, he reached out to grab her cloak. Unfortunately, her speed was too fast, and what he held in his hand was just an afterimage.

In just a few breaths, Luo Qianhuai rushed out of the wine shop and disappeared into the darkness within a few ups and downs.

"Sir, do you need your subordinates to send someone to follow you?" Bai Ming looked at his lord's stern face that was gradually darkening, and asked cautiously.

Huo Yu ignored him. After such an accident, Zhu Niang and Zhuang Shu on the ground were treated better, and each received two long knives crossed on their necks.

"Tell me, what happened today?" Huo Yu's voice was extremely cold.

Luo Qianhuai didn't know that Zhu Niang, who was finally rescued, turned from a pure victim to a suspect because of her relationship.

But even if she knew, it wouldn't change anything. She kept jumping through the mountains, her mind a mess. There were so many rewards accumulated that she was completely unsure of which one she was going to receive tonight.

Or, should they all be taken together?

"System, can you tell me how much energy you used to save people just now, and how long you can hold on now?"

The system's attitude was much more upright than before, and it immediately responded: "Checking the energy reserve. Wow, the host query permission is exceeded. Please change other questions. Use the shortcut system to reach the pinnacle of life! Thank you for your support for version 1.3 of the shortcut system. Trust and support!”

Luo Qianhuai: "...I talked a lot, but it's a pity that it's of no use. How about we go back first and collect it after the battery is fully charged?"

"Currently enforced, we will flawlessly understand the host's unreasonable demands."

So the so-called improvements in this upgrade actually have no substantial significance.

Luo Qianhuai gave up further communication with the system and watched silently as he climbed higher and higher in the moonlight, reached a peak, and then rushed to the cliff without stopping.

This is one of the high points of the nearby mountains. Looking down from above through the moonlight, one can see a thousand-foot-high wall and a deep ravine below, so dark that the bottom is bottomless.

The system cannot come here for no reason. Luo Qianhuai felt deep fear in his heart: "System, let's call it a night, right?"

The system no longer answered her, but jumped as she expected.

The feeling of weightlessness was so clear that Luo Qianhuai couldn't help but scream: "Ah~~ah~~ah~~"

Fortunately, the system did not really want to change the host, and would grab the vines on the cliff from time to time to slow down. It went back and forth like this, and finally stepped on a stone platform.

The stone platform is very narrow, only more than three feet wide, and the stone wall next to it is covered with dry vines.

The system maintained this posture for only a few seconds before Luo Qianhuai understood.

It's over, the system energy is exhausted.

Sure enough, as soon as she thought of this, the system's voice rang, softer and more pleasant than before:

"Warning! Due to insufficient energy, this enforcement has been suspended. The host is required to make up for the rest. Host, please come on!"

Hearing this last sentence, the sparks in Luo Qianhuai's heart instantly swelled up, enough to start a prairie fire: "System, did you want to kill me by throwing me into such a ghost place, where I can't reach the sky or the ground?"

"Why are you still working hard? Stand here and be blown by the northwest wind for twelve hours. Tomorrow you can realize your dream and change to a new host!"

"It is about to enter charging mode, which is expected to last for twelve hours. During this period, the system will enter a silent state. Use the shortcut system to reach the peak of life! Thank you again for your trust and support in version 1.3 of the shortcut system!"

"Bad review, bad review, bad review! Call me the customer service number quickly. Before I die, I must complain to this garbage system of yours to the end!"

The system is silent again. The wind on the mountainside was cold and hard, pushing Luo Qianhuai to the cliff. She shivered, clutching the vines tightly with one hand and wrapping the cloak more tightly with the other hand, but it still couldn't stop the chill that penetrated her bones.

Luo Qianhuai thought for a while and squatted down with his back against the stone wall, thinking that if he was less exposed to the wind, he might be able to survive a little longer.

Suddenly, a strange gust of wind blew from the side, like a storm breaking the shore, making a harsh and terrifying sound.

Caught off guard, Luo Qianhuai's body was thrown out. If she hadn't tightly held the vine in her hand, she would have fallen off the cliff at this time.

The direction of the strange wind changed from left to right, and Luo Qianhuai was like a rubber ball with a string on it, hitting the stone wall repeatedly, causing pain on her back.

I don't know how long it took, but the wind finally stopped. Luo Qianhuai fell back weakly on the stone platform, and suddenly felt a weak wind coming from behind.

There is obviously a stone wall behind her, where is the wind coming from?

Realizing this, Luo Qianhuai woke up suddenly. When he turned around, he saw that behind the vines, a hole as big as a pot lid appeared. A slight breeze blew out from it. It's weird and scary.
