In order to eat, I signed a contract with the system

Song Ruyi's name is homophonic to "Song Ruyi", which means to send a wishful life to those who are destined to have it. He is also known as the Master of Dreams.

Its true identity is a spirit that roams the human world and feeds on souls - the soul-calling bird. Because it feeds on souls, it is also called the soul bird or the soul-guiding bird.

There are many legends about soul birds and soul-guiding birds in Chinese classics. The soul bird is a bird that the soul of a person transforms into after death in folk beliefs. Cui Bao's "Ancient and Modern Notes" said that after King Huai of Chu died, he "transformed into a bird named Chuhun".

As for Song Ruyi, she didn't know how she was born. Since she became conscious, she knew that she was a soul-calling bird, and she was working hard to realize human dreams in order to obtain the souls of humans after their death.

However, since modern times, human life has undergone earth-shaking changes, and the pace of life has become faster and faster. Gradually, the dreams of people that Song Ruyi encountered became more and more single-minded: to get rich, and to get rich. The souls corrupted by money were filled with turbidity and tasted more and more unpalatable.

Just when Song Ruyi was about to become the world's first soul-calling bird to starve to death, she had the good fortune to meet the Dream-Fulfilling System 007, an intelligent system created by a high-dimensional life form to collect emotions and travel through the film and television space.

One wanted to absorb more different souls, the other wanted to witness different lives. The two hit it off immediately and felt like old friends at first sight. They signed the contract in minutes and set off!

In the empty mission hall, there was only Song Ruyi, a bird, sitting in a daze with his chin in his hand, bored. The ball 007 beside him was also rolling around on the table in boredom.

"Ah~" Ruyi yawned, "When will someone come? 007, is your system reliable?" After signing the contract with the Dream-Fulfilling System 007, Ruyi was waiting with excitement and anticipation for the first trader who wanted to change his life and realize his dream. Unexpectedly, a month has passed and the entire task hall is still empty, with no one interested.

The ball 007 stopped rolling embarrassedly when being asked. To be honest, it was just born not long ago. Ruyi was its first host. Because the two of them signed the contract too quickly, even 007 himself didn’t understand many of the functions of the system?

"I, I don't know either! How about I look through the system manual to see if there's something wrong?"

After saying that, the ball on the table disappeared in a flash, leaving Ruyi alone in a daze.

After waiting for a long time for 007 to come back, Ruyi decided not to wait any longer and to find out the reason herself.

She came to the operating table in front of the mission hall, opened the operating manual and studied it carefully. The more she read, the tighter her brows frowned. After reading it and comparing it with the diagrams in the manual, Ruyi rolled her eyes speechlessly.

“So the first thing to do is to select the type of film or TV series!” Without selecting the type of film or TV series, the system doesn’t know which “clients” to accept and is stuck in the middle of the major film and TV worlds.

He did nothing but took Ruyi into the mission hall. If 007 wasn't in front of him, Ruyi would have squeezed the fat ball to death.

Ruyi opened the task operation panel, which was roughly divided into several types of film and television worlds: Qing Dynasty palace dramas, martial arts, cultivation, modern and even Korean dramas and British and American movies, etc., even anime.

"The subject matter is quite rich, hmm..." Ruyi has been wandering in the world for so long, and he is not an old-fashioned person. He has read a lot of TV fan fiction and the like. "Which one should I choose? I'm a bit confused." His fingertips moved back and forth among the title options.

"Host, I found the problem!" The sudden appearance of 007 scared Ruyi. When she came to her senses, her finger had already pressed on the option of Qing Palace Drama.

The lights in the mission hall suddenly began to change. After a period of darkness, they lit up again. The originally very technological and modern mission hall turned into an ancient palace, and the place that originally received traders became a group of private rooms.

Before Ruyi and 007 could finish appreciating the display, the system began to announce: "The first trader has entered the market, the first trader has entered the market, the first trader has entered the market."

Turning around, they saw that there was someone in Box No. 1. Ruyi and 007 curiously entered Box No. 1. The trader inside was dressed very familiarly. He was unconscious and full of resentment, and was still saying something crazy.

"I wish we could be like this, seeing each other day and night."

"Evil woman, we will never see each other again in this life or death, never see each other again in this life or death!"

"Why did you kill my sister? He fell in love at first sight. He broke his oath. It was him! It was him!"

Ruyi had some guesses in his mind, but waited without saying a word for the other party to wake up. After entering the mission hall, these resentful souls who died unwillingly would be able to regain their sanity for a short time. After the deal was negotiated, Ruyi would live again in the other party's place and live the life he wanted. Of course, after the dream ended, this soul would completely become Ruyi's food and would never have the chance to reincarnate again.

"Are you awake, Queen?"

"Well, I will never be more sober than now." After waking up, Yixiu also understood the reason for coming here. She smiled bitterly, still a little bit unbelieving, "Can I really do it again? Really?"

"Really? It's just that you will attach yourself to your reborn self and experience the whole process, but you can't participate directly."

"It doesn't matter. It's enough for me to experience it myself." Yixiu had no complaints about this. She had lived a lifetime full of resentment in the past. When she was young, it was because of her status; when she was young, it was because of love; when she was middle-aged, it was because of power. No stage was truly satisfying!

"You are clear about the situation now, so tell me now. What kind of life do you want to live if you live again?" Song Ruyi looked at Yixiu talking about his life, his expression changed from sadness to anger and then to sorrow. After the other party finally calmed down, she began to ask.

"Or, what is your dream?"

"I have lived my entire life under the shadow of my elder sister Ulanara Rouze. Whether it is family or husband, my elder sister is always the first choice instead of me."

"The position of the first wife that I wanted was snatched away by my first sister with a stunning dance. My husband, whom I have loved all my life, also loves my first sister. Even my only son, Honghui, was forced to die of illness in order to give up the throne to her son."

"The funny thing is that it was my elder sister who stole everything from me, but after her death, everyone around me kept praising her and her kindness, including Yinzhen, my aunt, Qi Yuebin, and even the servants who came with her as a dowry."

"Everyone said she didn't mean it, that I was evil-minded and ugly, and that I turned a good deed into revenge and killed her!"

"The funniest thing is that not only did I become the first wife in the second half of my life because of Rouze's affection, but even my position as empress was secured because of her last words. Hahaha, hahaha! It's so pathetic! I am really, so pathetic!"

"I don't want to live that kind of life anymore. I want someone to love me, and only me. I want the situation to be reversed, so that Rouze can reveal her true malice and tear off her hypocritical mask. I want my son Honghui to come back, and I want to become the queen mother!"

"Well, no problem, but what about Yinzhen? Do you want him to be the one who only loves you?" Ruyi didn't think there was anything wrong with Yixiu wanting so much, she was just unwilling and it was easy to solve. But she still had to ask Yixiu about her plans for Yinzhen. After all, if she didn't ask clearly and the revenge was too much, what if Yixiu was dissatisfied because of love brain attack? Ruyi didn't want to eat an unclean soul!

"Yinzhen..."

When I mentioned this name, I seemed to recall the words he had said to me: the promises, the perfunctory answers, the scoldings, and finally the words "we shall never see each other again, whether we die or not".

"I, I don't want to love him anymore."

Rouze, Zhen Huan, Nian Shilan, Qi Yuebin...

Different women flashed before Yixiu's eyes one after another, followed by countless scenes of herself waiting alone in the middle of the night. Yixiu could not say that she would not marry Yinzhen anymore, because she wanted to be the queen, wanted Honghui to be the crown prince, and wanted to be the empress dowager.

As for Yinzhen, the man she had loved and resented all her life, she just wanted him to taste her own suffering and never love him again.
