I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 1 How can you travel without a system?
The cold rain in early winter, carried by the cold wind, hit the dilapidated thatched hut, and dripped down to every corner of the inner room along the loopholes in the roof.

The only window was covered with a blue-grey straw mat, blocking most of the daylight and making the room dark.

Someone was whimpering and sobbing in my ears, intermittently.

Luo Qianhuai shivered greatly and couldn't lie down anymore, so he simply opened his eyes and sat up with his body propped up.

The two half-grown boys lying in front of the bed, with tears in their eyes, looked straight at her with their mouths half open, unable to speak for a while.

It's really amazing to think about coming back from the dead.

But for Luo Qianhuai, who died young, it was truly a blessing to be able to live another life with a different identity.

"Sister, are you ready?" the older boy asked hesitantly.

Luo Qianhuai learned from the newly digested memory that he was his original eldest brother Luo Xiao, who was 13 years old this year. The one next to him who was more than half a head shorter was his second brother Luo Zhao, who was now ten years old.

Due to long-term malnutrition, both boys were much shorter and thinner than their peers. They were shivering in the cold weather while wearing thin linen clothes.

Luo Qianhuai suddenly felt a sense of compassion in his heart.

"I just slept for a long time, and I'm fine now." She gently stroked Luo Xiao and Luo Zhao's hair with her hands, her voice calm and gentle.

"That's great!" Luo Zhao was still a child after all, and he immediately burst into tears and smiled: "I have told you before that my sister will definitely not be willing to leave us behind!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a very loud bowel sound sounded in the room.

Luo Qianhuai naturally understood its meaning. "What time is it?"

"It should be Shen Mo Youchu." Luo Xiao replied awkwardly.

Luo Qianhuai frowned: "The meal starts at three o'clock in the morning, why don't you go to the great father's courtyard to eat?"

Luo Zhao turned to look at Luo Xiao.The latter looked straight and said naturally: "My sister was seriously ill before, so we should be by her side."

Luo Qianhuai didn't refute what he said, he just smiled and said, "Zhao'er, tell me."

Luo Zhao was waiting for this question and immediately started chatting: "Sister, my brother stayed to look after you earlier and asked me to go get some food, but the door over there wasn't even opened."

"Second aunt is still threatening us inside, saying that we can be hungry for a few days without any problems, but we must not pass on our illness to them."

Luo Xiao sighed and interrupted him: "Zhao'er, stop talking."

"Keep talking." Luo Qianhuai's voice was light and there was no hint of emotion or anger: "I just want to hear, what else did they do while I was unconscious?"

"It's nothing." Luo Xiao glared at Luo Zhao and said hurriedly.

"Brother, please stop hiding it for them." Luo Zhao's voice rose three times: "That day, because of my brother's study, my sister was pushed down by my second aunt and hit her head, and she fell into a coma."

"That night, brother knelt outside my eldest father's room all night, trying to beg him to find a doctor to come over and help you see a doctor, but they ignored him at all and said, sister, you are just pretending to have a hard life. Illness wants to gain sympathy."

Luo Qianhuai was silent.The family of the original grandparents and two uncles is indeed difficult to describe.Before, they could still make superficial appearances, but as their father lost contact for a long time, they no longer even needed this fig leaf.

"Sister, I have already figured it out. I will listen to my second uncle's advice and go to farm. Let's give up on studying." Luo Xiao said hesitantly. "No!" Luo Qianhuai blurted out.

Children of this age are at a good age to study.In her memory, this cheap brother was quite talented in studying and had always been diligent in studying. How could he give up so casually?

Luo Xiao lowered his head, and when he raised it again, his face had returned to calm: "I have thought about it, and what my second aunt said is actually right. There has been no news from Awen for so long, and the family's income is decreasing day by day. We really should Let’s face reality.”

"There is no need to mention this matter again." Luo Qianhuai got up and got out of bed, putting on his half-wet hemp shoes without changing his expression: "Of course I have a way to let you continue studying."

"But the day after tomorrow is the day to renew the monastic payment. How can we raise so much money? It's better not to do it."

"I told you, don't worry, leave it to me."

Luo Qianhuai said, suddenly feeling dizzy.As a doctor, she knew exactly what was going on.

When I crossed over, the head injury had healed, but my body must have been extremely weak after not having water or rice for three days.

"Kill the rooster at home and stew it." She said without hesitation, and saw the disbelief in the eyes of her two brothers.

"Sister, didn't you plan to keep that chicken until the meeting day and sell it in the local market?" Luo Zhao swallowed hard and asked eagerly.

"No more." Luo Qianhuai said: "A Xiao and A Zhao haven't tasted meat for a long time. Tonight is a celebration of my sister's survival. Let's all have a good meal."

Seeing that her two younger brothers were still standing there with their eyes wide open, she simply laughed and said, "Don't worry. I will let you live a good life in the future. Not only will you have books to read, but you will also have meat to eat every day."

"Really?" Luo Zhao's eyes were astonishingly bright.

"More real than real gold!" she said firmly.

Luo Qianhuai dared to boast about Haikou, naturally because he was confident.

What she relies on is the daily welfare of travellers, a shortcut system that is mysteriously self-confident.

This system keeps saying that life is short, so why waste time on trial and error? It is better to choose this express train and rush to the peak of life so that you can concentrate your time and energy on doing something practical.

It was the pattern shown in the last sentence that moved her and made her agree to the binding.

After all, no one who has studied hard for 20 years and studied integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, which has the broadest knowledge and the most complex subjects, would not be willing to die unexpectedly just after being hospitalized, right?
Since you have come here and brought a cheating device with you, you must live a good life and realize all the failed wishes in your previous life. Only then will you be worthy of this adventure.

So while her two brothers were out boiling water and killing chickens, she made her first wish:
"System, I want Luo Xiao to continue studying. Can you help me figure out what to do?"

A cheerful voice sounded instantly: "The wish has been received. We are working hard to calculate the shortcut according to the host's needs..."

"Ding! The shortcut calculation was successful! Since the host's current ability is not enough to complete this plan independently, this system will enforce it!"

The next moment, Luo Qianhuai's body was controlled by a strange force, and he strode outwards.

Her consciousness is still in this body, but she seems to have become a bystander, unable to make any decisions.
