The Resolute Cannon Fodder Teaching In Ancient Time

Chapter 73: Seventy-Three Treasures ✨

Xun Qianchun came back unexpectedly and saw Xu Zhen putting ointment on her own wounds. A little embarrassed, Xun Qianchun offered to help.

Xu Zhen had injuries on her back that had opened up again. She casually threw the ointment to Xun Qianchun, asking her to apply it.

Xun Qianchun held the ointment tightly and knelt next to Xu Zhen. Her robe was on the ground, and the red light from outside made the tent look like it was bathed in blood.

Seeing Xu Zhen's wounds made Xun Qianchun emotional, but she tried hard to control her feelings. She gently held Xu Zhen's hand, her eyes moist with unshed tears. Why did this have to happen to her...? Xun Qianchun closed her eyes, holding back her emotions with difficulty.

Xu Zhen noticed the little beggar wasn't moving and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xun Qianchun shook her head, looking down to hide her feelings. Then she saw Xu Zhen's injuries, got upset, and quickly left the tent.

Xu Zhen was confused and didn't understand why the beggar left.

Outside, it was snowing lightly, and the wind was blowing. Still puzzled, Xu Zhen looked for some ointment but couldn't find it. She tried to go back to sleep, grumbling, "If you're going to leave, fine, but why take the ointment?"

Without the ointment, Xu Zhen had to go to the marketplace for help.

Unfortunately, the marketplace was out of the healing ointment.

Xu Zhen contacted customer service, asking, "Don't you usually have plenty of medicines? Why is there none today?"

The customer service explained, "All items in the marketplace are generated randomly."

Xu Zhen said, "I'll offer more merit points; can you make an exception?"

Xu Zhen had secretly talked with customer service a few times. At first, they politely refused her requests, but soon the marketplace had the healing ointment she wanted.

She quickly bought it. This special ointment worked much better than regular ones, and as soon as she used it, her wounds healed very fast.

Xu Zhen wasn't done with the system yet.

Thinking about her merit points, she asked, "When will the detox pills be available? I've been waiting for two years. Do you not value my fifty thousand merit points?"

Customer service explained coldly, "These limited products depend on your own efforts and are out of our control."

This was the first time Xu Zhen heard "own efforts." Before, no matter how she hinted, customer service never responded. This answer surprised her.

But the customer service also realized their mistake.

Xu Zhen tried to probe more, but the customer service refused to say anything further.

After the call ended, Xu Zhen thought about what she could do—should she try to unite the world? Earn more merit points? Catch more villains? Or focus on the main quest?

The main quest seemed like a good option and might work.

She didn't have to unite the world since it wasn't required, she already had lots of merit points, and she had captured the most dangerous villain.

So, focusing on the main quest was her best bet.

Maybe finishing the main quest would let her access this limited product.

Xu Zhen checked the system interface, but there was no progress on the main quest, not even a clue. This problem had been around for years, and she planned to finish it while in Chang'an. But after leaving Chang'an, chances became rare, and she paid less attention to it.
