Surviving the famine: I made my fortune by helping others

Ye Chuyi picked up a few tattered clothes and, without even bothering to see who they belonged to, lumped them together to make a simple bundle.

Without food and money, it’s really a life-threatening situation!

Ye Chuyi muttered something in his heart and started running in the direction where everyone left in his memory.

She had never seen a horse, but she could vaguely hear the sound of horse hooves. Although the sound was faint and she couldn't tell whether it was real or not, saving her life was more important, so she decided to run away first!

His body was already weak as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. After running only a few steps, Ye Chuyi began to breathe rapidly and felt like his heart was about to jump out.

She took a deep breath and threw the white-haired dog in her arms out with an expressionless face.

"walk on my own!"

The system flipped over in the air nimbly, landed steadily on the ground, and wooooed twice at Ye Chuyi.

"If we get caught later, I'll sell you for meat."

Ye Chuyi gave it a displeased look and quickly looked around trying to find a place to hide.

There are farmlands stretching for a long distance around Xiahe Village. When the harvest is good, you can even see lush green crops, providing just enough space for you to hide.

But now, because of the drought, the crops in the fields have either died or become barren, and the few that are still standing are of no use.

After running for about twenty minutes, Ye Chuyi felt that his legs were as heavy as if they were filled with lead and he couldn't lift them up at all.

She held onto a dead tree by the roadside and managed to take a deep breath.

They were some distance away from the village. There were few people and a lot of land in the village. The houses of each household were built quite far apart, occupying a large area from north to south. At a glance, they could barely see smoke rising from the southernmost part of the village.

"There's no one left, so who has the time to cook?"

Ye Chuyi swung his sore calves, muttered something to complain, and suddenly he was stunned.

They are not burning the house!

Ye Chuyi's heart suddenly tensed up.

The villagers left early, and the things that could be taken away must have been taken away long ago. If the bandits couldn't grab what they wanted, they would definitely chase after them. Wouldn't she be the one who suffered then? !

I'm confused!

"Bai Zai, think carefully before you speak. You must think carefully. Is there really no novice gift package?"

The system shook its head firmly, and with its flexible limbs, it ran to the right front, shaking its head.

"What a sin!"

Ye Chuyi took a deep breath and trotted after him.

She didn't believe that she could only have a 24-hour experience card to live again!

Ye Chuyi was only concerned with watching the dog's white tail swinging back and forth along the way, and had no idea how the system was working.

After running around in twists and turns for about half an hour, they actually entered a forest.

Ye Chuyi looked again and again in surprise. As far as she could remember, there was no such forest around Xiahe Village.

Even if there is, it is in the south. Could it be that her memory is wrong?

The system looked at her with disdain, then skipped to a high ground.

I don't know how it found it, but there happened to be some bushes there to shelter it, and it could also see the road not far away.

"Your system is quite useful."

Ye Chuyi stroked its fur and casually lay down in the bushes, breathing heavily.

It seems that this place is not immune to bandits, right? They don't even need to search, they just burn it down with a fire.

The fleeing team was heading north, so if she wanted to catch up with the main force, she would also have to go north. There was no telling how long this group of bandits would follow her.

[Host, do you still remember the system mission?]

The system gave Ye Chuyi, who was lying flat on his back, a sad look.

If the host fails to complete the task on time, it will not receive energy rewards. Without energy, it cannot even buy candy in the store!

After hearing the task, Ye Chuyi became alert for a rare time. She rolled her eyes and looked at the system.

"Bai Zai, do you think we two are civilians?"

The system tilted its head and blinked in confusion. The host was the common people, and it was the host's system. Now it was an entity with living characteristics.

Dongdong said that having a physical body is the same as the host, so it is also a citizen, right?

[We are the people!]

The system looked at Ye Chuyi and nodded firmly. It was a good system that would work hard to learn to be a good partner of mankind, and it must be the same as the host!

"You're right!"

Ye Chuyi rubbed the system's long fur with a smile, and held the system in his arms.

After running so far, his fur is not dirty at all. It’s too unscientific!

"That white boy, we are being chased by bandits. We have to hide from them. Are we in trouble?"

Ye Chuyi rubbed its fur and whispered to it.

The system felt so comfortable being rubbed that its tender pink belly turned out and it nodded defenselessly.

[Yes, we are in trouble too.]

Ye Chuyi slowly revealed a smile of success.

"Since you said so, Baizai, then I have completed the task now and it's time to distribute the rewards."

She put the system on the ground, raised the corner of her lips and patted its little butt.

The system took a step back in confusion. Didn't the host do anything? How did he complete the task?

"What are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and give out the rewards!"

Ye Chuyi patted it twice with a smile, "We rescued the refugees when the bandits arrived. Look how alive we are. We completed the mission so well!"

The system nodded in a trance, and the more it nodded, the more it felt something was wrong, and the whole dog jumped up.

[No, no, you didn't do anything, how can you complete the task? Don't cheat this system!]

The system bared its teeth at Ye Chuyi fiercely.

"Whether it is completed or not, you can tell by just taking a look. As the most powerful system, you should know how to check the progress of the task, right?"

Ye Chuyi deliberately made a disgusted expression and looked at it, and the system was fooled.

The system turned around angrily and squatted on the ground without moving.

It is not a stupid system that knows nothing. It just doesn't know because the task module has been separated out. Yes, that's it!

The system hummed and fiddled with the air for a while, then looked at the information fed back by the task module and its eyes widened.

Suddenly, a transparent panel popped up in the air, just like a computer desktop, with a few lines of words slowly appearing in the middle.

The most eye-catching thing is the bold red warning and three exclamation marks.

Ye Chuyi roughly read the contents on the panel and raised her eyebrows with interest. It seemed that her attempt to take advantage of the situation was successful this time!

[Ding——, congratulations to the host for successfully completing the task and receiving a random system reward. Do you want to draw the system reward?]

As the mechanical broadcast sounded, the system turned around dejectedly and shrunk itself into a round ball.

This is too much of an abuse of the system. How can this be considered a mission completed?

It didn’t get any energy points, and all the apple-flavored candies are gone, woooo!
