Rebirth in a Book: The Road to Breakthrough

Yu Congcong felt a little disappointed, but she did not give up and continued to pursue the frog. She shuttled through the grass, stopping from time to time to listen, hoping to hear the frog's voice again. Finally, in a dense patch of grass, she found the frog. This time, she did not act rashly, but quietly observed it, fearing to disturb it. The frog seemed to sense her presence, jumping back and forth in the grass, as if playing hide-and-seek with Yu Congcong.

Yu Congcong stared at the front with full concentration, clenched her fists tightly, and her eyes revealed a hint of tension, quietly waiting for the best time to attack. Finally, she saw the opportunity, launched the attack without hesitation, and quickly reached forward to grab.

At the same time, a black shadow with a pointed triangular head rushed towards the frog like lightning, and as if carrying a fierce momentum, it also launched a fierce attack.

However, when Yu Congcong finally saw clearly that the black shadow was actually a snake, a sense of fear suddenly surged in her heart, and her outstretched hand seemed to be fixed, unable to be retracted at all.

Her face turned pale instantly, her eyes widened in fear, her mouth opened slightly, but she couldn't make any sound. Her body trembled uncontrollably, and her legs seemed to have lost their strength, almost collapsing to the ground.

At this thrilling moment, a hand suddenly grabbed the snake's vital point with lightning speed and held it tightly. This hand was firm and powerful, as if it had infinite power.

The whole scene was extremely tense, as if time had frozen. Every detail was clearly displayed before our eyes, making us feel the tense atmosphere of life and death.

Yu Congcong finally came to his senses at this time, and let out a sharp and piercing scream from his throat: "Ah...". His hands and feet were able to move, but he began to wave them around like a crazy lunatic.

Zhang Yun was left expressionless by Yu Congcong's extreme reaction. He was completely shocked and at a loss for a moment.

"What's going on?" Tiezhu heard Yu Congcong's shout and quickly ran over here from the field, his steps hurried and flustered.

"Congcong, what's wrong?" Tiezhu held Yu Congcong tightly while she was still spinning in place, fearing that she would fall.

When Yu Congcong saw that it was Tiezhu, he seemed to have found a support. He turned around and jumped onto the iron pillar, put his arms around Tiezhu's neck, clamped his feet around Tiezhu's legs, and climbed up with all his might.

Tiezhu didn't care about the mud on his hands and held Yucongcong's butt steadily. He patted Yucongcong's back gently, giving her warm comfort. Gradually, Yucongcong's panic subsided a little, and she lay her head on Tiezhu's neck and sobbed, her tears flowing like a flood.

"Host, this is a good opportunity, stop crying." The system's voice sounded in my mind.

Yu Congcong tried her best to calm herself down and asked the system angrily: "Box, why didn't you remind me of the danger just now?"

"Host, I just went to learn from other systems." The system responded guiltily.

"I almost died, and you still said you were going to obtain Buddhist scriptures?" Yu Congcong roared wildly in anger in his heart.

"I don't want to do missions anymore. I might lose my life while doing missions. There is no safety guarantee at all. I might as well just sit and wait to die!" Yu Congcong simply lay down and gave up.

"Host, I really didn't mean it just now. I was indeed going to seek Buddhist scriptures." The system kept explaining.

"Hmph, when can't you go to obtain the scriptures?" Yu Congcong's anger dissipated a little, and he snorted and muttered.

"Congcong, don't be afraid. I have caught the poisonous snake." Tiezhu comforted softly, his tone gentle but firm, making people feel at ease.

Yu Congcong moved down from the iron pillar, wiping the tears from her eyes with her hands, lowering her head slightly, not daring to look at Zhang Yun. Her voice was as soft as a mosquito, and she stammered, "Thank you! I'm so sorry for what happened just now."

"Um, um... I don't know how to thank you. Are you... are you hurt?" Yu Congcong asked stutteringly, a blush on her face and her hands clenched together nervously.

"I'm fine, you guys do your thing! I'll go back to where I was and wait for you." Yu Congcong was scared and ashamed, and just wanted to escape from this extremely embarrassing shooting scene.

"Congcong, wait a little longer, haha, when the sun gets brighter, we'll go back." Tiezhu shouted at the receding figure of Yucongcong. Turning around, he looked at Zhang Yun again, scratched his head and asked, "Zhang Xiaobao, thank you haha! What are you going to do with this snake?"

"I plan to sell it for money." Zhang Yun's eyes fell on the snake in his hand and he answered calmly.

"Oh, if you don't eat the frogs you catch, you have to keep them and exchange them for money, right?" Tiezhu continued to ask.

"Yeah." Zhang Yun responded briefly.

"Do you know where to sell it?" Tiezhu said as he walked towards the field that was allocated to him, his steps a little hurried.

"I don't know." Zhang Yun was silent for a moment and answered in a low voice.

"Then let's catch the frogs first and discuss this matter when we get back." After Tiezhu finished speaking, he strode into the field.

Zhang Yun looked at the iron pillar, then at the snake in his hand, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile, but it soon disappeared. He carefully searched in the grass and found a very soft and strong grass. He plucked a few strands with one hand and quickly tied up the snake. Then, he carefully stuffed the snake into the cloth bag containing the frogs.

Yu Congcong returned to the place where she was, feeling very upset and blaming herself for her cowardice. She had no idea that the moment she turned around and left, Tiezhu quietly provided her with an opportunity to get acquainted with Zhang Yun.

"Host, you left before Zhang Yun responded." The system reminder sounded in Yu Congcong's mind.

"Do I need you to remind me?" Yu Congcong retorted unhappily, muttering to herself: "Do I need you to remind me? Don't I know? I know everything. I'm just nervous and timid." She was extremely depressed, frustrated that she could never change her temper.

Alas, the system is helpless too. It just went to seek the scriptures because of the host's social phobia, and it almost caused the host's death. And now the host is in a bad mood again. Tongzi is really having a hard time.

Yu Congcong counted the ants on the ground in annoyance. She lowered her head and hypnotized herself, as if as long as she didn't look up, no one would see her ugly appearance.
