Notes on the Passive World

Chapter 1

At a loss, she kicked the gravel under her feet.

Her bare feet, without shoes, were white and tender, dangling in the air.

She noticed her bare feet and pursed her lips. Without batting an eyelid, she tugged at her dress a few times to completely cover her half-exposed feet.

She could still vaguely see the light blue dress she wore when she first arrived in the city. However, because of this period of time, not only was it stained with a lot of dust, but several parts around it were also damaged.

New clothes and shoes had not been prepared yet, so she could only suffer like this for now.

However, it seemed that because of the surrounding environment, this kind of dressing attracted more attention from others.

Just by looking up casually, she could still see that not far away, there were a few people who seemed to want to come to her.

Huaguo's heart stirred. In the next moment, the people who were still approaching her suddenly seemed to have lost their direction. They looked around a little doubtfully and then left in a daze.

Soon, she was the only one left in this small park.

The summer sun was shining brightly, and the cicadas' chirping on both sides became more and more restless. At this time, it was more and more unbearable.

She wasted another talisman —

Before her heart could completely calm down, the person sitting in a daze on the children's slide heard an abrupt electronic sound in her ears. Soon, a line of words appeared in front of her eyes. "Your milk has been collected. Please collect it as soon as possible."

She sighed in her heart. With a thought, six bottles of milk were already in her hands.

The milk that had just come out still had a low temperature. She casually took a bottle and opened it. The rest were all stuffed into the empty warehouse in front of her.

Perhaps her heart was suppressed too much. The milk, which was originally just so-so, made her drunk to relieve a thousand worries.

However, it was not wine after all. She gulped down more than half of the bottle. Except for a small circle of white foam above her mouth, nothing else was left.

She silently burped and casually closed the glass bottle.

She didn't care if the slide she was sitting on was clean or not. She just lay down on her back.

The noon sun was very dazzling, so dazzling that it stung people's eyes even more. He stretched out his palm and waved it in the air a few times before pressing down on the original position of the sun.

A small abandoned park faced the river.

Perhaps it was because of the humidity in the air, or perhaps it was because of the lack of maintenance, whether it was the slides, seesaws, or swings, there were a lot of brass rust spots.

Not far from the slide that Huaguo was lying on, there was a small hole where children played hide-and-seek. In the past few days, Huaguo had turned it into his temporary residence.

Although it was ventilated from all sides, it was still able to shelter them from the wind and rain.

This was already the best place she could find to rest in these days.

She turned her body slightly and looked at the half-empty bottle of milk. She subconsciously shook it a few times.

The pure white color stuck to the transparent body of the bottle, and very soon, it slowly slid back to its original position.

She didn't know when these days would come to an end.

An inexplicable drowsiness surged from the bottom of her heart. Her long eyelashes moved up and down like butterfly wings, and soon closed again.

These days, she had been on tenterhooks, not to mention that she was in a period of weakness. Even her body was very tired, and she hadn't had a good rest for several nights.

She closed her eyes, and the faint black color below could not be ignored. She pinched her eyebrows a little annoyed, turned over, and tried to let herself have a good rest.

It had been a week since she appeared in this place.

Because of that incident, every hundred years, she would usher in a strange period of weakness for ten years.

It didn't matter if only her ability was suppressed. However, in these ten years of weakness, this incarnation born from the tree would always appear in some strange places.

Although the original body had been properly entrusted to the care of a good friend, this incarnation that had been used for nearly a thousand years was not so easy to give up.

What's more, every time after this strange ten years, her original body would also gain a lot of benefits.

In this period of time where it was increasingly difficult to increase one's cultivation, this kind of little progress was also very precious.

Therefore, even though the blank period of weakness was annoying, she still endured it.

Her power being suppressed, and her incarnation being transferred was a small matter.

She opened her eyes and looked around vigilantly. After looking at her simple little nest, she finally calmed down.

Knowing that the time of her 'transfer' was approaching, she had already made preparations in her own warehouse.

Food and medicine necessities, spirit stones, energy points, gold, silver, jewelry, and even some ancient books and notices. There were also many self-defense and life-saving gadgets that she had collected in the past few years. There were many of them in the warehouse in the void.

Not to mention, she also had the gadgets that her good friend had specially found for her.

With her eyes closed, she unconsciously shook the glass milk bottle in her hand. The sound of 'tie, tie, tie' echoed in this hot afternoon, and made people feel a little drowsy.

Because of the passive 'transfer', Huaguo had experienced all kinds of strange worlds. Every time she went back, she could bring back a lot of 'local specialties'.

This gadget was set up by her good friend based on a leisure business game that she had brought back last time. It was set up in a small world that was less than ten thousand acres.

Although they couldn't enter the small world, they could collect food, clothes, and accessories that were automatically produced and packaged. Everything was handled by the native gremlins in the small world. However, they used a drop of their heart's blood essence to bind it to their souls. It was as reliable as carrying a small town with them.

Huaguo would not use the things in the warehouse unless it was absolutely necessary.

Most of the food expenses these days were also dependent on the existence of the small world.

She had accidentally lost her shoes in the last escape. A new pair was not ready in the small world yet. During this period of waiting, she could only secretly pray that she would not be discovered again.

She was thinking about things in her heart, and the sound of cicadas around her did not stop. She tossed and turned several times but still could not sleep well.

After all, the slide was not the same as the bed.

After lying on the bed for a short while, the pain in the area that was originally only faintly painful became more and more intense.

Helplessly opening her eyes, Huaguo completely gave up the idea of resting. She turned over and half sat up, subconsciously rubbing the bruises on her body.

This was the closest place in this world that she could find without using her power. It was the closest place that she could find without any surveillance.

She moved her fingers, and the attachment that shrouded the small park became even more intense.

Since she had already wasted a talisman, it was better to make it work.

A piece of attachment relied on a talisman to conceal the location of this park within a day.

After a week of searching and escaping, she slowly understood that as long as she used her power, the group of people who had been chasing her would be able to catch up again with the strange detector in their hands.

There were not many talismans left in her hands, and she did not have any talisman paper or cinnabar that could be used later. Now, she could only rely on these little tricks that she originally did not care for and take one step at a time.

Ever since she was lucky enough to escape from the group of people last time, she was discovered twice because she used her power. After losing her shoes, she had been hiding here.

It was not that she did not think of looking for a chance to leave this place, but the people here seemed to be unable to do anything without a terminal.

She had no identity, no money, no place to live. Once she used her power, she would be discovered. If it was not for her previous experience of 'transferring', which allowed her to store up a lot of things, she was afraid that she would have been captured long ago.

The faint pain on her body could still clearly remind her of the scene when she first came to this world.

It was not the first time that she came to the world of mortals, and she was used to hiding her hair and eye color to be ordinary black every time.

Until this strange world — —

What was originally the most ordinary black color now seemed special. What was even more eye-catching was the colorful hair and eyes of the people.

She really did not like the black color of herself. Since this' difference 'had been reversed to become normal, there was no need to deliberately change it.

He appeared here with his green hair and emerald eyes, looking at the shop across the street from him from afar.

After confirming that her current appearance was not much different from the people around her, even if she could only look like a fourteen-year-old girl in her weakened state, she still calmed down. She leaned against the small alley behind her and secretly observed the situation outside the alley.

It was very strange here.

Regardless of whether it was the buildings on the street or the people walking on the street, they were all similar to the world she came to last time.

However, the language of this world and the colorful hair made her feel very out of place.

She looked at the girls walking on the street, and subconsciously, she took off the complicated bun on her head, leaving only the simplest half of it.

She took off the complicated jade ornaments one by one and held them in the palm of her hand.

Soon, they were gathered into a small handful. She held it with both hands and casually put it back into the nothingness beside her.

Her knee-length hair slid down and covered half of her face. At the same time, it also covered her skirt, which stood out from the rest of the people around her.

She touched the purse on her body. There were three banknotes worth 50 taels of silver and 20 taels of silver in it.

She had exchanged them with the second-grade jade she had picked up from the pawnshop the last time she was' transferred 'to the human world. She had spent some of it, and the rest was here.

This time, after confirming that she was in the human world, Huaguo took out the purse.

However — —

She looked around, especially at the vending machine beside her in the same alley. The sticker on the top of the vending machine showed the detailed appearance of the currency here. No matter how slow Huaguo was, she realized that she seemed to be in a new and strange world.

Yen?

Coins?

A hundred yuan?

A thousand yuan?

Ten thousand yuan?

She lowered her eyelashes slightly, as if thinking about something. But soon, such silent thinking was completely covered by the shadow in front of her.

She came back to her senses and looked at the person in front of her.

She was clearly half a head taller than the group of girls who passed by outside the alley, but at this moment, she was completely covered by his shadow.

He was very tall.

This was Huaguo's first impression of the person in front of her.

But soon, she no longer had time to think about anything else. Because the person did not say a word and directly reached out his hand to Huaguo.

"What are you doing?"

This action obviously made her feel uneasy. After all, she did not have time to understand everything about this world.

She did not know whether the person was a friend or a foe. She immediately took a few steps back and completely covered herself in the shadow of the alley.

"Here."

In the palm of his outstretched hand, there was a round pink candy lying quietly.

The person who was originally shrouded in the shadow and could not be seen clearly revealed his appearance because of the distance.

His green hair was similar to hers, but brighter.

His originally delicate facial features were blocked by black-rimmed glasses. In addition to his strict appearance, there was more of an indescribable sense of abstinence.

She originally thought that he was a man, but at this moment, it was clear that he was just a young boy.

"For you."

Seeing that the girl in front of him did not take the candy in his hand, Lu Jian could not help but feel a little indescribable uneasiness in his heart. He could not speak.

The morning divination told him that Cancer's lucky item for the day was a fruit candy. It also hinted that in the ordinary alleys, there would often be unexpected surprises. He spent the entire day looking for something in the alleys.

A cat, two cardboard boxes, and three homeless people.

None of them could be related to the unexpected surprise.

He tidied up the cardboard boxes, sorted the trash, gave the homeless people coins, and even bought canned food for the cat he hated the most. The so-called unexpected surprise was still in vain.

This time, there was clearly no guidance, but just a casual glance after school made him subconsciously feel that it was here, it was her.

As for today's lucky fruit candy, in addition to stuffing it full in the backpack behind him, he also randomly put a few in the pocket of his pants.

The whole day's peace made him gradually calm down, but in the bottom of his heart, he became more and more curious about the unexpected surprise mentioned by the divination.

After seeing the girl in the alley, there was an undeniable feeling that crossed the bottom of his heart at that moment.

The girl looked up at him with her head half raised. Her plain face was not smeared, but he could not take his eyes off of her beauty at all just by looking at her from afar.

Even if she was half hidden in the alley, because of the shadows of the buildings, it was completely impossible to hide her dazzling beauty.

Could it be —

Unexpected surprise, was it referring to the luck in love?!

Just as this thought appeared in his mind, he had already unconsciously blushed a little.

He mustered up the courage to go forward, but when he did not know what to say for a long time, he only dared to take out a candy from his pocket.
