Chapter 9: Transmigration Perk
If it hadn't been for the original host's father saving the Chen family grandfather and grandson from a wolf's jaws back then, they'd probably have weeds growing tall on their graves by now. This marriage contract was something the Chen family took the initiative to come to their door and arrange, yet now they not only want to break their word, they've even hired someone to harm the original host.
She worked hard to suppress the fury in her heart, only then to discover that her hand was actually clutching a handful of wood chips. For a moment she was rather dazed: What was going on?
It took her a good while to react—so angry just now, she had grabbed a piece of firewood from the woodpile beside her.
Looking again at the firewood pile, the piece she had just grabbed was missing exactly a section. Now she couldn't be bothered with being angry anymore, turning her hand over and over as she looked at it. Just how much strength would it take to crush such hard firewood into wood chips?
She shook the wood chips from her hand, found another piece of firewood, slightly thicker, and held it in her grip.
With one forceful squeeze, that section of firewood crumbled straight into bits.
Seeing Liu Chuxue could no longer stay calm—was this the transmigration benefit the heavens had given her?
After trying it again and again several times, she finally believed she had truly gained: a body full of brute strength.
If it weren't for the wrong location, she really wanted to let out a few wild howls to express the excitement in her heart at this very moment. Wasn't there that saying: before absolute martial power, all schemes and plots are floating clouds.
With this body full of strength, plus the martial arts moves she had learned in her previous life for self-protection, her future safety was now assured.
She looked up toward the Ge family courtyard not far away. Through the not-very-tall fence wall, she happened to see two people coming over from the back courtyard.
Once she saw clearly who those two people were, she suddenly realized something and couldn't help widening her eyes.
Thinking it over carefully, after the Ge family members had left for work earlier, the front courtyard had been silent the whole time. That meant the grandfather and grandson had been talking in the back courtyard just now. Did this mean she had gained yet another skill: good hearing?
Her head went 'buzz': after all that bad luck, had she turned into a koi constitution?
One stroke of good luck after another left her a bit unable to find her bearings.
In her excitement, the Ge family's firewood pile suffered the consequences. In no time at all, the ground at her feet was covered in wood chips she had crushed.
She was feeling absolutely delighted inside, thinking: if only there were a spatial dimension too, that would be perfect. When the time came to take revenge on those people, it would be even more satisfying—she'd make sure to clean them out until their homes were bare, let's see if that scared them to death.
Lost in pleasant thoughts, she casually muttered a sentence: "When the time comes, I just have to silently chant 'collect, collect, collect.'"
The moment these words left her mouth, the firewood pile beside her vanished into thin air right before her eyes, scaring Seeing Liu Chuxue half out of her wits.
Fortunately she reacted quickly, hurriedly imitating what was written in novels, silently chanting: "Come out, come out."
In an instant, that firewood pile returned to its original spot.
Seeing Liu Chuxue wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: "That really scared me to death.
Thinking of her own guess, her blood pressure soared.
Seeing the stones the Ge family had prepared for building an addition behind her, she silently chanted: "Collect."
Only those stones didn't move at all. She wore a face full of bewilderment: could it be that she was just imagining things?
Not willing to accept it, she slapped her hand onto the stone closest to her: "Collect."
The pile of stones before her vanished in an instant, and at the same time, a place with mountains and water flashed through her consciousness.
After confirming again and again that she had truly obtained a heaven-sent opportunity, that wonderful feeling was simply beyond description. But she simply couldn't figure out where the medium for this spatial dimension had come from.
Before she had time to further explore the spatial dimension, she heard Ge Pozi's voice come over: "Ge Baocheng, I'm heading out. You close the courtyard gate properly before resting."
Ge Baocheng gave an acknowledging reply, but after Ge Pozi left, he did not come out of the room to close the courtyard gate.
Since Ge Pozi was also part of plotting against the original host, she naturally had to be taught a lesson. The courtyard gate not being closed also happened to make things convenient for Seeing Liu Chuxue.
