Chapter 1113: Making Tofu?

“And the prayer beads too,” said Ning Shu happily.

The shopkeeper’s facial muscles trembled. Ning Shu paid the thirty-five faith points. She still had fourteen faith points left. As expected, things were cheaper in the fabricated space.

Ning Shu put on the prayer beads and her heart immediately calmed. Moreover, the prayer beads were actually rather pretty, they were smooth and shone softly.

After leaving the shop, she went to the restaurant to order some food and satisfy her food cravings.

Ning Shu saw that everyone else were in groups of three or five while she was always here by herself. She didn’t have any friends she could talk to. It felt like all the tasktakers she encountered were always her opponents.

Forget it, let’s just forget about friends.

Rather than think about capturing a horse every day, it would be better to plant more seeds now. In the future there would be plenty of horses coming to eat the grass. Once she got stronger, she’ll naturally encounter people who share the same interests.

After eating an entire table of food, she spent some time wandering around the city again. She hadn’t noticed before that the fabricated space actually had casinos and arenas. A lot of tasktakers were participating in the gambling.

There was one tasktaker who had lost everything he had, and so he started betting his own soul points. In the end, he ended up losing everything except his soul origin. His soul was so thin that it looked like a bubble, like it would break from a single poke.

It’d probably be unbearable to enter an entrustor’s body in that state.

It was only now that she realized, even after becoming a tasktaker and obtaining eternal life, humans were still humans. The inferior nature of humans was still deeply buried within the bones of tasktakers.

When the people in the casino saw Ning Shu looking around curiously, they sized up Ning Shu’s soul. It was unusually strong, so they asked, “Young lady, do you want to try playing?”

Ning Shu hastily waved her hands dismissively. “I’m just looking around.” After saying so, she left the casino. There was no way she would touch these kinds of things. How was she supposed to get strong if she couldn’t even resist allure of these things?

After walking for a little while longer, Ning Shu returned to the system space. She first sat down on the carpet to cultivate for a while until she could no longer absorb the substance in the space.

Following that, she grabbed a book from the bookshelf. Her goal was to finish reading all the books on the bookshelf.

She couldn’t feel the passage of time, so she didn’t know how much time had passed. She kept flipping through the book, until she reached the last page. Finally, she closed the book and placed the book back on the bookshelf. Afterwards, she watered the bonsai a little, ran on the treadmill for a while, then fiddled with this and for a while.

She opened the system marketplace, exchanged for some basic survival necessities like fasting pills, water, medicine, antidotes pills, fake death drug, and some realgar powder.

Ning Shu found that the fake death drug was really useful.

After exchanging for all the basics, Ning Shu finally said, “Let’s start the task.”

“Alright!” replied 2333.

Ning Shu was dizzy for a moment, then she felt her soul enter another body. After she adapted to the body, she opened her eyes and lifted her head from between her arms. She shook out her stiff neck.

The original host was currently standing in front of the brick stove opening, working on building up the fire. She saw that there were flames licking at the bottom of the pot, but the flames were getting smaller. She glanced around, then grabbed a dry wooden block and stuffed it into the opening.

The surroundings were very dim. There was a kerosene lamp lit on the table. Ning Shu didn’t even know what time it was.

The room was filled with the smell of beans and nearby there was a cloth for straining soy pulp. The pot contained milk-white soy milk that was currently bubbling noisily.

She was making tofu? Ning Shu was a little bit lost, so she hastily received the storyline.

The original host’s name was Zhu Suniang. She was already married and the household basically relied on Zhu Suniang to make tofu. Her husband Zhu Yanqiu had gone to Shanghai to study.

Zhu Suniang was a woman with a hard life. She had been sold by her parents when she was eight to the local rich scholar family, the Zhu family. Based on the Zhu family’s circumstances, they didn’t need to raise a wife at all. They only did it because Zhu Yanqiu who was only four at the time had fallen sick and didn’t seem to be getting better. The Zhu family only had this one child, so if this child died, it would crush their hearts.

Lord Zhu had been very old when he finally had a child. He only got this one son when he turned forty.
