Chapter 200: The Library
Chapter 200
She murmured to herself, "Is married life in the future really that good? Do men truly respect women?"
"Understanding their wives, caring for them, respecting them."
"Is it really so...?"
This latest conversation with Gu Sang had left Gu Qingrou\'s heart unsettled.
It seemed as if Gu Sang had somehow brainwashed her. For the first time ever, she began to question her love for Pei Changying.
It shouldn\'t be like this. She should firmly believe in this love that she considered so beautiful.
After all, Pei Changying had already fulfilled his promise to make her Empress.
She wanted to tell herself this, but her mind kept frantically replaying Gu Sang\'s words.
-
In the modern era.
After learning what Pei Changying was up to, Gu Sang\'s heart was put at ease.
"System, let\'s do this again. Bring my grandmother back to life immediately."
Earlier, when Pei Changying had interrupted her conversation with the System, it had disappeared for quite a while.
Only now did Gu Sang sense the System\'s presence again, and she urgently prompted it to revive her grandmother.
「Ding!」
「Are you willing to deduct 30 million merit points to revive your grandmother?」
"I am," Gu Sang cried out eagerly.
「Ding!」
「Deduction complete!」
「Congratulations, your grandmother has been revived!」
Upon hearing the System\'s words, Gu Sang rushed to her grandmother\'s room to look for her.
"Grandmother!"
She wasn\'t in her room.
Kitchen, bathroom, living room, even the doorway - her grandmother was nowhere to be seen.
She searched for a good while but still couldn\'t find any trace of her grandmother.
Wasn\'t she supposed to be revived?
Gu Sang frowned, her voice trembling with confusion and unease as she asked the System, "System, why hasn\'t my grandmother come back?"
"Don\'t tell me something unexpected happened. My heart isn\'t very strong."
「Beep! Livestream task successful!」
「Please don\'t worry, host.」
「Revival takes some time.」
"You should have explained clearly. How many days exactly? Of course I\'m anxious! I get worried if I don\'t see my grandmother for even one day."
「Within a month.」
「Your grandmother has been revived. Please make the following choice! Do you wish to continue livestreaming?」
「If you choose to continue livestreaming, you\'ll be rewarded with the Sky Screen mode, allowing the entire Central Plains region to watch the livestream in real-time.」
「If you choose to end the livestream, the System will leave immediately, cutting off all connections with the ancient world! Please choose carefully.」
The task was already successful?
Of course.
Her main goal was to revive her grandmother, but now that her grandmother hadn\'t returned yet, Gu Sang\'s heart remained uneasy.
Moreover, she and the Princess were preparing for the next step of the war.
They needed to continue expanding the army to take the capital directly.
If she ended the livestream now, she would no longer have contact with the Princess. Let alone whether the Princess would worry due to the lack of long-term communication.
What about her half-finished actions? What would happen to the Princess\'s side?
This would be a fatal blow to the Princess and all the people she had recruited.
"System, if I continue livestreaming, are there any additional conditions?"
"Or do I need to meet any specific requirements?"
"How long can I livestream?"
System: 「After activating the Sky Screen, each livestream will consume 100,000 merit points.」
「If merit points cannot be deducted, the livestream will fail, automatically canceling livestream privileges until merit points increase again.」
「Until the main System determines that the interface world\'s merit is perfect, with no further increase in merit, perfect completion of the livestream mode will be achieved!」
「A grand gift package will be rewarded!」
Gu Sang nodded, finding these conditions acceptable.
She also inquired about the merit conditions achieved last time, which allowed her to choose a one-day trip to the ancient world. After the System replied that it could be activated at any time and she could be transported there, Gu Sang felt reassured.
The next day.
Gu Sang prepared to go out to the library.
During her last chat with the Princess, Gu Sang learned that in their era, they didn\'t have books like "The Thirty-Six Stratagems," and their knowledge of some covert and overt battle strategies was limited.
So Gu Sang thought about finding some books of this kind for the Princess. After all, her grandmother had been saved now.
As for whether to livestream or not, and who to stream to, that was up to Gu Sang to decide.
Before leaving, Gu Sang turned on the livestream.
At the same time, in the ancient Central Plains region, a huge sky screen unfolded above.
When this scene appeared in towns that had never experienced livestreaming before, it immediately caused an uproar among all the ancient people of the Central Plains.
"A miracle!!!"
"Heavens, what is that thing? Is that a fairyland? I\'ve never seen such tall, tall buildings before."
"One, two, three, four, two, two, three, four, radio calisthenics now begin... Is that the voice of an immortal?"
"Is that the mount of the immortals? It looks impenetrable to swords and spears."
"Hey, this looks a bit like the livestream the Plague City mentioned. Is this thing called a car?"
Even those ancient people from old cities who had experienced livestreaming before were shocked when they saw the endless sky screen broadcast.
They all widened their eyes in utter astonishment.
"Which divine lady is livestreaming this time? It\'s much grander than the previous divine lady\'s livestream!"
"I don\'t know if you\'ve noticed, but no matter where I go, the livestream image on the divine miracle follows. As long as I\'m in an open space without obstructions and look up, the angle is the same no matter where I stand."
Gu Sang heard bits and pieces of the discussions. She thought about it briefly and guessed it was probably due to the System.
It allowed the ancient people to see the image just by looking up, and the view wouldn\'t be affected by their position, ensuring everyone could see the full picture.
Someone spotted Gu Sang.
The crowd immediately erupted.
The ancient people from the new city shouted at once: "Divine Lady? Are you the Divine Lady?"
"Where is that place of yours? Is it really the future? What kind of world is the future exactly?"
Countless questions flooded in from the livestream.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, curiously gazing at Gu Sang.
They were all waiting for Gu Sang\'s response.
Gu Sang: "What you\'re seeing is a livestream. There\'s no need to be surprised. Some old places like the capital and Plague City have already experienced livestreams."
"Now, this livestream can be seen throughout the entire Central Plains region."
"This is indeed the world thousands of years after your ancient times, but it\'s not your future. So you can imagine it as another place if you like."
"Secondly, the purpose of my livestream is to let everyone see life in the future, compare it with your own lives, and make changes to make yourselves and your country prosperous."
"If you have doubts about this, you can ask those ancient people who have experienced livestreams before. Also, I won\'t explain further about future things like cars and houses."
