The noisy mechanical voice disturbed her sleep.
"Jiang Pengji, bastard Jiang Pengji — don't play dead, I know you're awake. If you have the guts to lock me up, answer me if you have the guts! Answer me! If you continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, I'll annoy you for the whole night! I'll stop when you're willing to talk to me. "
The System muttered, and it even started a rhythm. It was difficult for Jiang Pengji to ignore it. She wanted to kill the System.
"What are you up to this time?"
Jiang Pengji asked in her heart coldly. She got up carefully and did not disturb anyone.
She climbed up the city wall. The soldiers were still patrolling and keeping watch. Seeing Jiang Pengji's red and white military uniform, they all perked up and saluted.
She waved her hand and said in a low voice, "I just couldn't sleep at night, so I came out for a walk. You guys continue with your work, don't worry about me. "
The group of patrolling soldiers nodded slightly and moved sideways to avoid Jiang Pengji.
She found a secluded corner. The cold night wind blew on her face, dispelling some of her sleepiness.
"System, you better give me a reasonable reason. Why are you suddenly disturbing me in the middle of the night? Do you want to die?"
The System retorted, "Then why don't you kill one for me to see?"
Oh — you're fearless!
Jiang Pengji narrowed her eyes dangerously.
The reason why she chose to imprison the System instead of completely destroying it was because she was afraid that the System would find out and alert the enemy.
Now it had become the System's capital to play tricks. She could not help but laugh.
She did not know what the System was like, but this System, tsk tsk, its IQ was really low.
Times had changed. Did it think she would always be afraid?
Jiang Pengji exhaled a white breath and asked in her heart, "I still want to sleep, I don't want to talk nonsense with you. If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you continue to be pretentious, you can do whatever you want. Do you think I'll ignore you? That's the world of my brain, you better be clear about it. "
The System had been imprisoned by Jiang Pengji for almost two years. It had developed a subconscious fear of Jiang Pengji.
It could not be afraid. Jiang Pengji was a shrewd person. She only provided the System with the points of popularity every day.
To the system, popularity points were the energy it needed to survive and grow, similar to the food humans needed.
Regardless of whether it was a human or a system, to be imprisoned in a silent world, to be given only the minimum amount of food every day, to ensure that they would not starve to death, and to be imprisoned for one to two years at a time... If a human were to go crazy, even the system would not be able to handle it. There was a reason for it to cause a ruckus this time.
The system stuttered.
"Um, um, can I discuss something with you?"
The originally arrogant System was now timid and timid. Jiang Pengji did not know whether to laugh or cry.
System, can you be any more cowardly?
"Reasonable things can be discussed. If you want me to let you go and give you freedom, you should just give up."
The System hurriedly said, "No, no, no — it's not about that, I mean... Can you restrain yourself a little for now? If it's possible, it's best to lock me up more tightly … It's been a bit special recently, I'm afraid that there might be dimensional merchants patrolling around … "
Planar merchants patrolling everywhere?
Jiang Pengji raised her eyebrows and her expression became solemn. "What do you mean?"
The System said, "I don't mean anything … Can you not be so guarded against me? I'm serious this time! Regardless of whether it's you or me, we absolutely cannot be caught by dimensional merchants with patrol orders, or else we're done for … We're now grasshoppers on the same rope. If I'm done for, you won't get any benefits either. If it weren't for Liu Xi's body, you would have long been expelled and exiled by the rules here … "
Jiang Pengji snorted softly. "I don't care."
None of the federal soldiers were afraid of death.
The System was silent for a long time.
"You're really annoying. What do I have to do for you to agree?"
The System's coquettish grumble made Jiang Pengji frown deeply.
"Dimensional merchants with patrol orders? What's that? From what you're saying, you seem to be very afraid? "
The System said impatiently, "Nonsense, have you ever seen a smuggler who isn't afraid of the police?"
Jiang Pengji was speechless.
The System said, "I'm the Dimensional Palace Intrigue Streaming System. Opening the streaming channel will temporarily open up a channel between two unrelated planes, causing the balance of several planes to be destroyed. That's why there are so-called 'reborns' or 'time travelers.' Regardless of whether they're time travelers or reborns, they're all illegal immigrants without a license. As for the dimensional merchants with patrol orders, they're existences with licenses that allow them to travel between different planes. "
Jiang Pengji's interest was piqued, and some malice grew in her heart.
"If you're caught by them, what will happen to you?"
The System sneered, seeing through Jiang Pengji's plan.
"Jiang Pengji, I advise you not to have the idea of perishing together with them. Do you know how much energy is needed to open up the barrier between two planes? I'm of the same level as that dimensional merchant! If he catches me, he'll lock me up for a few years at most. He can't do anything to me. But you're different. You don't belong to this world. You're an anomaly that affects the original development of this plane. To put it bluntly, you're a pathogen. When the time comes, you'll die a horrible death! You can still live for many years. Isn't it good to be alive? Why must you go against me? "
Jiang Pengji wasn't the slightest bit afraid of the System that was outwardly fierce but inwardly weak.
She laughed contemptuously, and the disdain in her words was undisguised.
"Is that so? So you're so powerful. Then why are you imprisoned in my spiritual realm? "
If the System had an expression, its face would definitely be as black as the bottom of a pot.
If it hadn't been careless and Jiang Pengji had deliberately pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger, would it have been caught carelessly?
The System had lived for a long time, but it was the first time it had fallen into the hands of its host.
Therefore, it hated the kind of host that was smart but disobedient the most.
Was it not good to be a little naive, a little stupid, and a little smart?
Although the host would have to pay some "small remuneration," at least the host would be a winner in life while he was alive.
Being reborn, wearing the halo of a protagonist, the intelligence of the supporting characters would decrease collectively, and the host would cheat all the way to the peak of life.
Wasn't it exciting to think about it?
Unfortunately, he met Jiang Pengji, a freak!
The System felt wronged and wanted to cry.
Jiang Pengji said, "You're full of lies and have too many criminal records. I believe at most 30% of what you say, and I'm skeptical of the other 70%. Your ridicule just now gave me inspiration. You said, 'Which smuggler isn't afraid of the police?' In that case, the dimensional merchant is the police, and you're the smuggler? You also said that you're of the same level as the dimensional merchant, but now you're trapped by me … Tsk, there's a lot of information … I seem to know something … "
The System was faintly flustered.
"What do you mean by a lot of information?"
Jiang Pengji asked it in return with a natural expression, "Why should I tell you?"
System: "…"
Jiang Pengji asked the System, "What does the dimensional merchant look like? Does he have the same heart as you? "
The System was almost choked to the point of being speechless.
What did she mean by having the same heart as me?
