“？？？”

Gu Bei looked at the somewhat dim room under the candlelight with a lot of miscellaneous items piled up everywhere.

On the wooden bed next to her lay a little girl who looked only six or seven years old, sleeping very sweetly.

He couldn't believe that such an outrageous thing had happened to him?

In his previous life, after being discharged from the army, he had nothing to do all day, so he resolutely chose to learn cooking, and within a few years, he finally became a boiler master for stir-frying in a better hotel.

As a result, he was still stir-frying in the hotel kitchen for the last second, and because he was overworked the night before, he yawned, and when he opened his eyes again, he came to this ghost place.

Subconsciously looked down at the clothes on his body, a blue cloth shirt with rough workmanship, a few stitches sewn on the cuffs, and a pair of cloth shoes on his feet that were about to wear out.

Looking around the room, as if he had found something, he walked to a table of eight immortals, and looked at himself reflected in the bronze mirror.

In the dimly lit mirror, there was a man with a thin face, but delicate facial features, and whiter skin than most boys, who could be called a completely handsome man.

Yes...

Suddenly, the pain in his mind was like a pinprick in his head, causing him to squat with his head in his hands and moan in pain.

The fragments of fragmented memories were reassembled again, and what appeared in his mind was the memories of this body before his death.

At this moment, he fully understood that he had crossed into a place called Xiuqi Continent.

And the real name of the person with this body is the same as him, and it is his sister "Gu Xi'er" who is sleeping on the bed, who is only seven years old this year, and his body has just turned twenty-one years old.

Brother...

Maybe the movement was a little big, but I don't know when Gu Xi'er was already sitting on the edge of the bed, rubbing her sleepy eyes, and calling him softly.

"Why did you wake up?" Although the headache gradually disappeared, there was still some slight pain, and he walked forward slowly.

"Is my brother still worried about paying back?"

Gu Xi'er had long hair that was long enough for a shawl, and her pink face was a little thin like him.

Gu Bei knew that the repayment of the money in his sister's mouth was referring to the debt owed by the body's father "Gu Wei".

At that time, because of Gu Wei's gambling addiction, he didn't care about the life and death of his family, and his mother left home after giving birth to his younger sister.

And Gu Wei also died of illness a year ago, but he left a lot of gambling debts, and he could only rely on Gu Bei to pull a snack cart to the town every day to sell noodles to pay off the debts, so his life was very bad.

"No, my brother just has some insomnia, you go to sleep. ”

Gu Bei smiled softly and stroked the little head of this so-called sister.

"I slept that night. Although Gu Xi'er was young, she also knew a lot of things, and after staring at him for a few times, she lay back on the bed and covered the quilt.

Gu Bei didn't feel the slightest sleepiness at the moment, and quietly pushed open the door and walked out.

It was already approaching summer, and a cool breeze was blowing in the house.

Looking back, the house I live in is just a simple wooden house, and it is located in a remote location in the suburbs, and there are often wild animals or something to harass me.

Gu Bei sat on the green grass, looking up at the starry sky, his eyes were a little more confused.

In his previous life, although he was an orphan since he was a child, he became a chef in a good hotel at the age of twenty-four thanks to his hard work.

He is a little confident in his cooking skills, but now he doesn't have a lot of money, and he doesn't have good ingredients, so even if he wants to make money, he has nothing to do.

【Gourmet System Activated】

Suddenly, a mechanical voice sounded in his head, which made him stunned for a moment, and then a series of data appeared in his consciousness:

Name: Gu Bei

Realm: Qi Realm Level 0

Assets: 26 Karu

Skill: None

Gourmet recipe: None

【System Mall/Click to enter】

【Qi Realm Ascension/Click to Enter】

Starter Mission: Earn 100 Karu Coins, Reward: Random Skill.

......

Looking at these unfamiliar data, could it be that he opened a cheat? It is said that the traverser must have a golden finger, and it seems that God has not abandoned him.

From the memories of the original owner, he knew that a very small part of this Xiuqi Continent was cultivating something called Yuan Qi, which could be used for combat life and so on.

And as the Qi Realm level gets higher and higher, one's own strength, speed, and physique will increase with it, and the current highest level of Qi Realm in the continent is level 99.

After clicking the Qi Realm Ascension button in consciousness, another data frame was displayed:

[Does it cost 20 Karu coins to upgrade the Qi realm to level 1]

"Yes. ”

He didn't hesitate to choose, because for an earthling, he was curious about what kind of energy Yuan Qi was.

[Congratulations to the host Qi Realm for being upgraded to: Level 1, you can choose to spend 100 Karui to upgrade to Level 2.] 】

As soon as the tone in his consciousness fell, Gu Bei felt that his whole body was refreshed, and his body, which was already a little tired, was suddenly full of strength.

When I opened my palm, I saw that there was an extremely faint blue light surrounding my palm.

Subconsciously waved his palm, and the blue light was thrown out and bombarded a big tree next to him, leaving a trace of fire on the tree.

Only then did Gu Bei feel the benefits of Yuan Qi, but it was a pity that the Qi Realm level was too low.

"Open the System Store. ”

After learning about Yuan Qi, he continued to explore the system in his consciousness.

[The system mall changes with the level of the host's Qi realm.] 】

Special Flavor Enhancer - 2 Karui Coins

Devil's Chilli - 1 Karui Coin

......

"That's it?"

Gu Bei was a little helpless, saying that the mall only sold two things in the end.

It seems that he still has to change his current life by himself, since the original owner used to sell noodles, and the business is not good.

Why didn't he improve it and sell it for something else?

When she returned to the house, she found that Gu Xi'er had already fallen asleep, and sat down at the wooden table and pondered.

Looking at the candles that are about to burn out, there are only 6 Karui coins left, and it is definitely not enough to get good ingredients.

In the case of simplicity, he considered that Malatang was the best choice.

Because the ingredients are simple, the cost is low, and it is not troublesome to make.

Although in the memory of the original owner, there is no such thing as chili peppers in this world, and even many ingredients from the earth were not available in this world before.

The only fortunate thing is that the system mall just happened to have chili powder for sale, which solved his problem.

At this time, there were less than two hours before dawn, and I took out the paper and pen from the messy house and began to take budget notes.

When the sky is white, the dawn has already shone into the land.

With the chirping of birds outside the house, Gu Xi'er opened her starry eyes, and saw in a daze that her brother hadn't slept yet, sitting alone at the table and not knowing what to write.

"Brother, what are you doing?"

Gu Xi'er lifted the quilt and got out of bed, put on the pair of little red shoes that were already a little worn, and walked to Gu Bei with broken steps and stretched out her head to look.

only to find that they were all unintelligible words, and he had a very excited expression on his face.

"Could it be that my brother is crazy because of the debt left by his father?"

In her young heart, there is not much love from her parents, only her brother has been taking care of her.

Seeing that Gu Bei was still obsessed with the pen in his hand, Gu Xi'er suddenly remembered something and brought a basin of water from a wooden basin outside the house, and brought it in quickly.

Wow...

Splashed directly on her brother, she remembered hearing that cold water can make people sober up.
