Chapter 1 Crossing
A little scarlet fire lit up.

"Candle, candle, I remember it was here." Someone used the dim light to rummage through the cabinets in the room, looking for things in his memory.

Soon, he found what he wanted in a box - it was a candle stick made up of several white candles of different lengths and thicknesses.

The power supply in civilian areas is not very stable. It is easy to lose power when there is strong wind and snow, and no one will brave the wind and snow to repair it. Candles are a must-have emergency supply for every household.

The lighter was extinguished and the candle was lit. The faint light, which was brighter than the lighter, barely illuminated the surrounding room.

This is a dark study room. The only electrical appliance that can be seen in the whole room is the light bulb on the wall. The wardrobe is a simple wooden shelf. The table is also a second-hand product that I don’t know where. It is full of pits and has a round shape on it. alarm clock.

A study that is so simple that it can be called a simple one.

The young man walked to the desk by candlelight. He could see an old-fashioned but thick enough backpack placed on the desk. Textbooks and composition books were placed aside. The fonts on it were strong and powerful, although there was no trace of the legendary character. but--

"This is much better than my previous writing." The young man whispered, casually picking up the pen and adding a few words at the end of the line.

The first few words seem quite atmospheric - the kind of 'atmosphere' where flesh and blood are somewhat separated.

But the last few words immediately became exactly the same as the original font.

At this moment, the lights suddenly turned on, and the bright incandescent lamp suddenly illuminated the entire room like daylight, completely illuminating the young man who had been hiding in the shadows.

This is an ordinary-looking young man with short black hair and brown-black eyes. He is wearing a high school uniform that has been washed a little white. The upper right corner of the uniform has the words Baihe High School written on it.

It can be seen from the bright eyes that the young man is in good spirits, but his face is a bit pale and his eyes have thick dark circles, which reminds him of the common young man with kidney deficiency in movies.

His name is Liu Cheng, and he left the Fourth Han Empire with his parents a year ago to study in the vassal country of Japan.

Ten minutes ago, here was a young man who was about to commit suicide because he was haunted by resentful spirits.

Ten minutes later, as the sleeping pills were emptied, the demon from outside the realm woke up in this body.

"Why did time travel happen to me?" Liu Cheng looked at his hands.

There are no traces or scars. The white palm highlights the fragility and softness of the greenhouse flowers. There are only some thick calluses that have been bitten off in half on the fingertips. It is obvious that he is a student who never stops writing.

Before time travel, Liu Cheng was older than this body and had been working for many years. Although he did not have any savings, he could at least support himself and be healthy physically and mentally. His biggest wish was to play the domestic 3A Monkey King that was about to leave the factory. .

Originally, he had prepared to save 4 yuan to completely update the computer configuration, but it turned out that it was just a daily overtime work, and he changed his body after waking up.

"Forget it, it's not bad to just call him Liu Cheng, but this world seems a bit dangerous - I won't be dead just after crossing over, right?" Thinking of this, Liu Cheng looked at the wooden door aside.

There is a painting hanging above, depicting a woman wearing ancient bridal clothing.

She has black hair like a waterfall and a graceful figure. Her slender and beautiful fingers are combing her long hair with a comb, and the face reflected in the mirror is like a fish out of thin air.

Not to mention anything else, just because of this beautiful woman, even if it is a Shang and Zhou product produced last week, it will not be a big problem to sell it for more than [-] yuan.

There are just a few problems.

Because this painting has neither nails nor framing, it hangs directly on the wooden door, as if there is some unknown force holding it down.

This painting in question was not bought by Liu Cheng at a glance, nor could it even be said that it was picked up on the roadside.

On the way back from school, Liu Cheng saw this painting on the street and looked at it curiously for a while. Then the painting appeared inexplicably in the study, followed by a continuous nightmare.

Whether you take it away or light it with fire, as long as there is a door around you and you turn around, the scroll will appear on the door.

Liu Cheng tried asking others for help, but every time he asked for help or wanted to write a note, he would fall into a blank state of consciousness for a period of time.

During this period of time, in the eyes of others, Liu Cheng was in an inexplicable daze.

After a month of repeated torture, the original Liu Cheng was finally overwhelmed.

Liu Cheng stepped forward, looked at the lifelike scroll, lit it with the lighter at hand, and witnessed with his own eyes that it turned into ashes bit by bit, and then turned around, and the unexpected scroll reappeared.

This made Liu Cheng give up on the idea that maybe if he changed his soul, he wouldn't be entangled.

Cuckoo!
There was a sudden buzzing in the abdomen, which was the protest sound of the stomach after not eating all day and night.

"It's really troublesome. What on earth is this?" Liu Cheng couldn't help but sigh. After thinking about it, he found that he had no solution at all, and finally decided to destroy it first.

cooked rice!Getting food done is the most important thing now!
Perhaps because he didn't really face the nightmare, Liu Cheng didn't have much fear now, so he simply decided to deal with his current problems first.

Anyway, it's been a month, and nothing else has happened except for the continuous nightmares. The probability that Liu Cheng will die immediately after passing through is not high.

Maybe if you procrastinate a little longer, you can come up with a solution?
So Liu Cheng reached out and tried to open the door, but because the scroll was too large, he inevitably came into contact with this strange scroll.

An icy cold breath suddenly spread directly to the brain, and soon a cold mechanical synthesized sound resounded in the mind.

Welcome to the strong cultivation system.

The hand that was about to open the door suddenly stopped. Liu Cheng stared blankly at the aqua blue panel in front of him, hesitating for a moment. He didn't come back to his senses until the cold energy disappeared.

I saw Liu Cheng's current state described in simple words on this aqua blue panel:
Liu Cheng——

Combat Strength: 3
Energy value: 1
Currently selected world: "Sea Tiger" (energy required to enter: 1)

'What the hell?Isn’t this half of the game system that I didn’t finish well before?Wear it with me too? '

Liu Cheng rubbed his eyes, wondering if he was hallucinating.

Although it was not that he was not looking forward to the golden finger, Liu Cheng was completely unprepared for the golden finger coming so unexpectedly. For a moment, he didn't know what to do, and he even worried about gains and losses.

'Is this an illusion arranged for me by this scroll?Could it be that it can peek into my memory? '

Liu Cheng forced himself to calm down.

Liu Cheng, who is used to being beaten by society and has even been defrauded of a lot of his savings, has certain doubts about all the delicious-looking pies.

But after thinking about it carefully, Liu Cheng found that there seemed to be nothing he could be deceived about now that he was so poor, and he might die again soon, so he relaxed immediately.

After all, nothing is difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up.

So, rather than consider the system a sham, accept it.

After all, he is already possessed by an evil spirit anyway, and no matter how bad he is, he can't get any worse.

But even if there is a one-in-a-thousand or one-in-a-ten thousand chance that this system is real, then I may have something to rely on to survive in this strange world.

Therefore, you cannot use it in front of the scroll, at least not when you can see the scroll.

Don’t be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality, right?

So Liu Cheng decided to ignore it for now, and as his mind moved, the aqua blue box automatically closed, which made him feel more at ease and walked out of the room.

Different from the simple study room, the whole room was a very standard Japanese double-story. Liu Cheng followed his memory and quickly found eggs and peppers from the refrigerator on the first floor.

Liu Cheng, who is used to eating meals cooked by his parents and taking out, is not good at cooking, but making egg chili is no problem.

Ten minutes later, Liu Cheng quickly filled his stomach and threw all the dishes and chopsticks into the sink.

The originally clean sink now contained a dozen bowls and a dozen pairs of used dishes and chopsticks.

This is what Liu Cheng accumulated in this month.

Not much.

After all, Liu Cheng was quite diligent before and would clean up after eating. But after that, he was troubled by nightmares and had no intention of cooking, so he basically ate takeout outside.

As for Liu Cheng’s parents.

The two of them just went home for funerals this month, leaving only Liu Cheng here who was preparing for the college entrance examination and couldn't get away.

But counting the time, I should be back soon.

Without thinking too much, Liu Cheng took his wallet and picked up his phone to go out - he wanted to find an open space without a door to avoid the shadowy scroll following him.

Even if this operation is likely to be in vain, it is also a kind of psychological comfort.
