The cold wind blew against my face, bringing a bone-chilling chill. The cemetery was silent, except for the snow falling from the sky and the earth.
The girl in the black-and-white photo has delicate features, a small mole at the end of her eye, shoulder-length hair, and is wearing a plaid shirt. Her expression is light and expressionless.
The name "Shi Qi" is engraved on the tombstone, and he died at the age of twenty-five.
"Master, you should be sure when you see the tombstone. You are really dead and your ashes are buried inside."
A burst of electronic sound came from the void, and the sound was mixed with the sound of electric current, like a rusty piece of iron, and the rusty blade surface could be glimpsed inadvertently.
"Well, I am indeed dead." Shi Qi said softly.
The system is the internal research system of the Quick Travel Administration, and I have a natural respect for a programmer who was a materialist during his lifetime.
Shi Qi died suddenly while working overtime in 996. She had no memory of her death.
I just remember that she started from home as usual that morning and took the subway to go to work.
We had lunch in the company canteen. The lady at the stall shook her hand and saw that there were only two pieces of meat in total.
I participated in the code review in the afternoon and found that the availability of several interfaces was insufficient. The product manager asked the R&D department to modify and replace them with other interfaces, and worked overtime in the company to correct the code.
This day was like any other day, nothing different.
The system wanted to find a family member or friend for Shi Qi to prove that she had passed away, but unexpectedly discovered that she was alone in this world.
Only a few days after Shi Qi's death, no one mentioned her again.
When he was young, the man next door to Shi Qi's family was a crazy gambler. After he owed millions in gambling debts and was unable to repay them, he burned down his own home.
Shi Qi's parents were killed by knife-wielding gamblers in order to save a neighbor's woman and child, and were also buried in a sea of fire. However, she escaped because she was attending a hobby class at the time.
Since then, Shi Qi has been living in a social protection institution, and his character has gradually become silent.
After becoming an adult, Shi Qi returned to her former home. The villa next door that was burned by fire was classified as a haunted house, and its appearance was still as black as before.
She lives alone and has no close friends. The nature of her job as a programmer does not require her to communicate with others all the time. She only needs to type code sentence by sentence in front of the computer screen.
In desperation, the system, in order to prove to Shi Qi that she was dead, could only bring Shi Qi to the cemetery to see her tombstone.
Shi Qi made a preliminary judgment on the system through observation within this week.
This system is probably the product of a certain high-dimensional space and time. It is much more advanced than the human technology she lives in. I don’t know which god-level programmer developed it.
Its function is also very strange, allowing Shi Qi to travel to another world to play another role.
These characters are time and space anchors, just like pointers in the code. The original world anchors disappeared for unknown reasons, and the direction of history has shifted. Therefore, new anchors are needed to replace this part of history, and Shi Qi was selected. New anchor point.
"I understand, I am the spy you planted in other worlds."
"Master, how can we call him a spy? We are peace ambassadors, in order to maintain the peace of the universe and the world."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah."
"..." The system was speechless and choked. What should I do? I'm so angry!
There is a task progress bar on the system's monitoring panel. When the task progress bar reaches 100%, Shi Qi can return to the world she lives in now.
The remnants of that purgatory-like scene twenty years ago are still burning.
This system that fell from the sky gave Shi Qi a chance to return to his childhood, change the past, and reverse the future.
And she had no better choice. Burning her bones to ashes, burying her deep in the ground, and accepting tasks from the system seemed to be a more efficient choice on all levels.
The system's control panel emerged in mid-air, and a thin page of labor contract appeared in front of Shi Qi.
Shi Qi read the contract, reached out and pressed his fingerprint, and smiled casually, "Please take good care of me in the future."
"Okay, Master."
It wasn't until much later that he realized that Shi Qi was telling the truth, and it was his misfortune to meet her...
A burst of white light came over, and the system's control panel was brought up. The panel appeared in Shi Qi's mind, and he understood the information provided by the system.
Currently, Shi Qi lives in an era where wars are raging, monsters are fighting, and immortal sects are emerging one after another.
However, ten years later, a young man with a destiny on his back united the vertical and horizontal, unified the continent, unified the human world and the demon world, and later entered the fairy world wearing a vest and became the leader of a sect in the fairy world.
The anchor point that Shi Qi needs to replace is the all-purpose tool man friend of the Son of Destiny. He always uses elixirs and magic weapons at critical moments to protect his life and improve his cultivation.
"Aren't you just asking me to be a stepping stone for him? Why didn't I know I was so versatile?"
"Master, how can you say it's a stepping stone? You have this opportunity called the Son of Destiny. The contract has been signed. It's up to you."
"I'll take care of it." Shi Qi said casually.
The system thinks that what Shi Qi wants to do is different from what it thinks?
Shi Qi's current identity is the daughter-in-law of the Prime Minister's family in the North Kingdom. After she was born, she was spotted by Wei Yu, the leader of the Divination Sect who was training in the human world at the time.
She is extremely talented in divination, but her intelligence will inevitably be damaged. If she stays with her parents all the time, it will lead to early death.
Therefore, we can only stay away from our relatives, step into the divination sect, and pursue the great road.
Although the Divination Sect is a serious immortal cultivation sect with a long tradition, and one enters the Tao through divination, the sect leader Wei Yu has only a few disciples in total. In recent years, it has become less and less important in the world of immortality.
Shi Qi reached out to cover his eyes. After a moment, he adapted to the light and his feet landed on the ground.
In the courtyard, heavy snow fell on the tree branches and strong winds swirled.
There was thunder and lightning in the sky, and a long phantom flickered in the clouds.
System: "Master, you are in the 23rd century of Blue Star. You must have never seen gods fighting. Look, look up to the sky."
Shi Qi squinted his eyes, his hair being messy by the strong wind, "Oh, it's probably the scattering and diffraction of light."
With a rumble of thunder, the peach tree in the courtyard was split into two halves.
"Master, look, if you don't believe in gods and Buddhas, you will be struck by lightning."
"Then why didn't the thunder strike me instead of that tree? The tree doesn't believe in gods, Buddhas, systems, science, and don't engage in feudal superstition."
Shi Qi wrapped herself in her clothes and walked into the room, "It's very cold today. Global warming is real. The weather in ancient times was really cold."
So Master, can you accept that you have traveled to ancient times, but you don’t believe that there are gods fighting in the sky?
