On the morning of the 18th day of the first lunar month, year 1228 of the Tian Shou era, one should be careful of being deceived and should not travel. The outcome of drawing lots has been determined.

Before leaving the house, Song Nan Shi, as per her routine, drew a lot to see what luck the day had in store for her. The system that accompanied her, which was used for drawing lots, unflinchingly popped up a black lot.

Song Nan Shi was pensive for a moment. It has been 17 years since she crossed over into the world of cultivation. The lot drawing system in front of her was her "golden finger".

Before she crossed over, she was a staunch materialist warrior. But after crossing over, she opened her eyes to a scene where a group of indigenous cultivators were flying and dodging, and striking each other until their heads were concussed.

In her previous life, the materialistic worldview she had held for two decades was instantly shattered. Song Nanshi reached out and, before she could even see the small fleshy circles on the arm that obviously belonged to a baby, a pair of big hands picked her up.

"From now on, you will be my disciple of the Unimitable Sect."

And so she became a professional cheat, a soothsayer.

"After a few years, when Song Nan Shi could run and jump, she realized that she had a senior brother with the same name as the male protagonist in an ancient novel, and a senior sister with the same name as the female protagonist in another novel.

Two years later, her rarely seen master brought back a junior sister with the same name as the female protagonist in a classic novel about wall-hugging sweet pet.

As a result, three protagonists who didn't know why they were hard to get together in one world surrounded her, and the whole school successfully achieved the achievement of all members being the main character except for her.

And her own position is that of an inconspicuous supporting role in the first part of the male-targeted Dragon Proud Sky novel, who suddenly turns dark and calculates Dragon Proud Sky in the latter part and becomes an antagonist."

After finding out about all this, she became completely numb.

She went into a self-induced coma for three days and set herself a ultimate life goal.

--To be a background character in a world filled with main characters.

Perhaps moved by her simple yet difficult wish, her time-traveling golden finger finally arrived.

Song Nanshi looked at the black sign in front of her.

She referred to the golden finger as the "Swindler System."

Because it was only good for making her a better swindler, it was useless for anything else.

Once a day, Song Nanshi can use the God-Stick system to draw a sign, and most of the sign text is a prediction of today's luck, and a small part is nonsense.

The accuracy of the sign text is about 50%.

At first, she was nervous and acted strictly according to the luck on the sign text every day, afraid of failing if she was not careful.

But now, she has a unique judgment skill for the sign text of the draw.

She firmly believes that if she draws an upper sign, it must be in the correct 50%, and if she draws a lower sign...

Feudal superstition is not allowed!

Song Nanshi looked at the dark and black lower sign again, calmly and skillfully recited a sentence "feudal nonsense," holding a thin storage bag in her hand, and lifted her foot out the door.

Her task today was to sell a bottle of newly refined beauty pill to Yuxiu Pavilion and get next month's living expenses.

After Lanzefeng Mountain, passing through Xuantong Cliff, Song Nanshi slowly swayed to a small stream beside the Eighteen Streams.

And then she suddenly stopped her steps.

"You dare to abandon me here, you b-- you b--," shouted an old man with white hair and beard by a stream filled with cobblestones. He was extremely angry, and his voice was loud and irritable, full of swear words.

Song Nanshi suddenly looked strange.

She quickly took out today's divination from the divine stick system and looked at it twice.

The divination was negative, and it said that it was not suitable to travel.

"Fifty percent, awakened."

"Excuse me, fellow traveler, could you please let me pass."

A cultivator dressed in a disciples' attire from a sect rushed past Song Nanshi, directly passing through the body of the old man who was scolding. He went straight across the creek in a hurry.

The old man started scolding the cultivator for not being a good person.

Song Nanshi stopped for a moment, her gaze lowered, and she saw a white jade pendant among the pebbles.

The old man, who was particularly angry, was floating three inches above the jade pendant with his feet suspended. He was swaying left and right.

..Could this be the grandpa of her Dragon Proud Sky master's personal jade pendant that only he could see?

Song Nan Shi was so focused on his task that he didn't realize that the old man accompanying him was scolding him until he suddenly stopped and turned his head.

His sharp gaze met Song Nan Shi's bewildered gaze.

He was looking at Song Nan Shi.

Song Nan Shi was looking back at him.

Their eyes locked in a gaze.

The old man had a puzzled look on his face, and coldly asked, "Is it possible that this girl can see me?"

Song Nan Shi remained expressionless.

Before she could react, the old man burst out laughing, "Impossible! It was only because Jiang Ji, that young man, accidentally signed a blood oath that he can see me. What am I thinking about this yellow-haired young girl!"

Jiang Ji is the name of her Dragon Proud Sky senior.

The old man is her Master Brother Dragon Proud Sky 's grandfather.

Song Nanshi last saw her Master Brother four years ago, then he started traveling.

A few days ago, Song Nanshi heard that her Master Brother was back, but she was busy making her beauty elixir and didn't have time to join the celebration.

Now it seems that her Master Brother has brought his grandfather with him on his travels.

So why did her Master Brother's lucky charm appear here?

And why can she see it?

At this moment, the grandfather seems to have convinced himself that no one can see him, making faces and acting silly in front of Song Nanshi.

Song Nanshi watches him expressionlessly.

After a while, the old man goes crazy and suddenly approaches her, putting away his strange expression, and seriously examining her while stroking his chin.

Song Nanshi holds her breath.

And then she heard the old man say coldly: "What's wrong with this girl, she's so foolish and silly!"

Song Nanshi: "..." You are foolish and silly! Your whole family is foolish and silly!

She looked up and glared at the old man!

The old man was frightened and floated back a step, patting his chest in shock, exclaiming: "Can this girl see me?"

She looked up again and saw the slightly pale girl lowering her eyes, as if everything just now was just a coincidence.

The old man: " ... it must be my illusion, ha ha ha!"

He began to walk around Song Nanshi, looking up and down.

The old man pondered: "The bones of this girl..."

Song Nanshi took a deep breath and held her breath again.

The old man with a disdainful face: " ... I've never seen such a poor one."

Song Nanshi: "..."

She raised her foot and walked away, walking to the side of the jade pendant, as if unconsciously sweeping over it with her toes.

The jade pendant rolled on the ground, and Song Nanshi crossed it without looking away.

Behind her, the old man was calling and scolding, blaming Song Nanshi for being "this foolish girl" without a sense of public morality.

She didn't care about this cheap and annoying little old man, pretending that she didn't notice anything, and walked straight across the bridge.

The excitement that belongs to the protagonist is not something everyone can participate in.

Besides, she was a cannon fodder role.

Still trying to find ways to get more spirit stones to be realistic.

Behind him, the old man half complained and half exaggerated, and when he saw that she really left, he was in a hurry: "Hey! This girl! How can you leave! What will I do if you leave! Don't you see the big jade pendant on the ground?"

Song Nanshi was not moved.

The old man talked non-stop, and as he saw Song Nanshi walking over the bridge with his head down, he was silent for a while, half worried and half depressed: "I wonder if Jiang Ji can find me. Do I have to wait another thousand years?"

Song Nanshi stumbled.

Behind him, the old man had already started to curse Jiang Ji and the others for fighting and losing him.

Song Nanshi closed his eyes and calmly told himself in his heart to mind his own business.

Especially matters related to the protagonist.

The old man continued to grumble and curse.

A moment later, heavy, hurried footsteps approached, filled with annoyance.

Before the old man had a chance to turn around, a thin and pale hand reached out and grabbed the jade pendant.

The old man gasped and turned around, to see the "smug young lady" who had just left, frowning and bitterly staring at the jade pendant in her hand.

She didn't seem happy at all about having picked up the jade pendant, and even appeared to be resentful.

The old man, seeing this, growled with a puff of his beard and said, "What? You're unhappy about picking up this piece of jade from me! Back in the day, I roamed the world of cultivators..."

Song Nanshi, holding the jade pendant, looked at the old man's pompous appearance and truly felt that she was being meddlesome.

She squinted her eyes and said to herself, "This jade pendant looks old, it must be worth a lot of money."

The old man's voice abruptly stopped.

He was incredulous: "You want to sell me? Do you understand the value of this jade pendant! You, you, you..."

Song Nanshi: "It's worth at least twenty spirit stones, right?"

The old man's voice immediately rose: "You're bullshitting! Am I really only worth twenty spirit stones?!"

Song Nanshi: "..." Ugh, she thought, what a difficult person to deal with.

She stood up, holding the jade pendant, looking like she was going to sell it on the spot.

The old man floated helplessly behind her, screaming like a pig being killed: "Help! Kidnapping and human trafficking!"

Song Nanshi's ears hurt from the noise made by the man and wished he could throw him back.

Just then, a voice came from behind, "Please stay, fellow practitioner."

Song Nanshi turned around.

The old man immediately became excited and said, "Jiang Ji! Save me! This girl wants to sell me for twenty spirit stones!"

Song Nanshi turned to see a stern-looking black-clad young man standing behind her. It was her senior brother, who she hadn't seen for a few years.

The old man was still crying, but the young man ignored him, staring at Song Nanshi's face. He hesitated for a moment and tentatively asked, "Are you a disciple of the Infinite Sect?"

Song Nanshi: "..." Yes, I am still your junior sister.

He obviously didn't recognize her.

This was normal.

In their sect, relationships between senior and junior disciples weren't close, they were like strangers with the same sect title.

For example, Song Nanshi had only seen her master 17 times in 17 years.

When she was initiated into the sect, her senior brother had an ongoing feud, and spent ten of the 17 years in closed-door meditation, the remaining years were either fighting or on the way to fight, so he didn't have time to care about whether he had one more or one less junior sister.

Once she was a bit older, her senior brother went into travel mode.

The last time they met, Song Nanshi was only 13 years old, a skinny girl who hadn't fully developed.

Song Nanshi from four years ago and Song Nanshi four years later couldn't be said to be identical, but they were similar.

Song Nanshi didn't have time to play the "guess who" game with him and directly said, "I am Song Nanshi."

"After a moment, he hesitated and asked, "Is it... Senior Sister Song?"

Song Nanshi nodded, "Big Brother Master."

The two called each other's names and quietly looked at each other for a moment, both falling into a difficult silence.

To say the least, in the past 17 years, the words they have spoken together may not even add up to 17.

Jiang Jue watched Song Nanshi.

Song Nanshi looked at Jiang Jue.

The old man next to them didn't understand the atmosphere and shouted loudly about "human trafficking," making the two people who could hear him but pretended not to very embarrassed.

At this point, Song Nanshi finally realized the profound meaning of the sentence "not suitable for travel" on today's signature.

Seeing Jiang Jue looking at the jade pendant in her hand without a trace, and the old man's shouting becoming more and more annoying, Song Nanshi decided to take the initiative to end the drama.

She spoke sincerely, "Big Brother Master, have you eaten?"

Jiang Jue was taken aback by the question.

He "ah-ed" and said in confusion, "Eat, have you?"

Song Nanshi nodded satisfied, and continued in a persuasive manner, "I've eaten too, and I'm about to go down the mountain."

She initiated the conversation, and the old man shouted "Help!" again. Jiang Jue finally remembered what he was supposed to do, and awkwardly asked, "Senior Sister, what are you going to do when you go down the mountain?"

Song Nanshi was thinking how cold this greeting was while listening to the old man's endless complaints.

She casually threw the jade pendant in her hand, making the old man sway involuntarily.

Song Nanshi said lightly, "Selling something."

Old man: "..."

He roared, "You still don't believe me! She's going to sell me! She's a wolf with ambition!"

Song Nanshi didn't originally plan to sell him, but at this moment she really wanted to.

Jiang Ji was silent for a moment.

He had a fight with someone and lost the jade pendant, and after searching for two days, he finally found it here, but who knew he would be picked up first.

If it were a ordinary jade pendant, it would be fine, but...

"She said she was going to sell the jade pendant, so at this point, it's a bit awkward to say the jade pendant is mine. Jiang Ji can only harden his scalp and say, 'Sister, I really like this jade pendant. Can you sell it to me, sister?'

Song Nan shaked the jade pendant again, and asked with a smile, 'Oh? How many spiritual stones is Master ready to offer?'

Jiang Ji remembered the old man's "twenty spiritual stones."

After a moment of consideration, he asked tentatively, "Sixty spiritual stones?"

Song Nan didn't care about the old man's incredulous "I'm worth sixty spiritual stones," and said, "Deal."

She threw the jade pendant directly into his arms.

Jiang Ji didn't expect it to be so smooth, and he was busy getting the spiritual stones.

With the money and goods cleared, he finally relaxed.

At this point, Song Nan only said, "Oh, actually, I'm not here to sell the jade pendant. I found this jade pendant."

Jiang Ji was stunned.

Indeed, she just said she wanted to sell something, but she didn't say she wanted to sell the jade pendant.

"Then you..."

Song Nan took out a bottle of beauty-preserving pills from her storage bag with a smile, and sincerely said, "Actually, I was going to sell this beauty-preserving pill. Master is generous and paid sixty spiritual stones for the jade pendant, but I feel that the jade pendant is not worth the price. This bottle of medicine, I'll give it to Master."

Old man: "..."

He was furious and powerless, "I'm not worth sixty spiritual stones?!!"

Song Nan was in a clear and refreshing state of mind for a while."

The old man snorted in anger, "Fine! Let's see what kind of medicine she can make, alchemist."

Jiang Ji furrowed his brows, "Alchemist? I've seen her draw talismans, isn't she a talisman master?"

Song Nan Shi was speechless, "I know we're not close, but you don't even know what I do?"

The old man urged Jiang Ji to ask, and Jiang Ji awkwardly asked, "Does Third Miss know how to make medicine?"

Song Nan Shi modestly replied, "I have some understanding."

Jiang Ji was at a loss, "What about talismans?"

Song Nan Shi, "I can do a little bit of that too."

Jiang Ji was silent.

Then he tentatively asked, "Does Third Miss know anything else?"

Song Nan Shi blushed and smiled shyly, "I have a little bit of understanding of refining equipment, medical techniques, and astrological techniques, so... "

The two of them held their breaths.

Song Nan Shi, "So I'm a diviner."

The two of them, "..."

The old man was confused, "Are the requirements for diviners so high these days?"

Song Nan Shi, "..."

Ordinary diviners probably wouldn't know, but a poor diviner would.

Who says being tricked and earning a few coins is easy?

Life is not easy, and one must be versatile.

She could only put on a poor man's smile: "A diviner who can't refine elixirs isn't a good diviner."

The two people were stunned.

Song Nanshi: "If there's nothing, I'll take my leave first."

She lifted her foot to leave, but halfway through, she suddenly stopped.

Jiang Ji stared at her as she cautiously placed her foot back down and then quickly took out a turtle shell from her waist and started divining skillfully.

The two people were both confused.

After a moment, the divination was complete.

The girl looked at it and then relaxed, saying, "Today, it's best to take the first step with your left foot."

She confidently lifted her left foot and left.

Jiang Ji: "..."

The old man: "..."
