Gu Chi felt like he had stepped on something.

He lifted his foot and saw a pile of debris, blackened with a hint of green.

[Fuyan Sect Life Lamp Fragment: Made with high-quality tea leaves, can be used to brew water, tastes good]

Gu Chi: "......"

What kind of ashes mixed with rice?

He looked around.

The lantern was still emitting a faint candlelight, and there were three bodies lying in the narrow alley with obvious signs of a fight.

...So, out of these three people, one of them was accidentally stepped on by himself?

This person should have just won a battle, and it was a brutal victory, otherwise they wouldn't have neglected to protect the Life Lamp, which was so important.

He thought that defeating the opponent would make him safe, but unfortunately, his luck was not good, and he happened to encounter himself, who had bought the special effect for entering the game...

Gu Chi quickly understood the situation and felt that he couldn't blame himself for this.

Who fights with a Life Lamp?

Do they think their death is not enjoyable enough, or are they not carefree enough?

To be honest, Gu Chi was also surprised by such a thing happening.

He didn't expect that he had just entered the instance and already had blood on his feet.

"Ah, it's really a pity."

While sighing, Gu Chi walked to the side of the corpse and quickly licked the package with skillful hands and feet.

[Obtained 3 Gold Wound Medicine (Ordinary): Classic healing medicine. External use, can accelerate wound healing]

[Obtained 251 Copper Coins]

[Obtained 1 Innate Life Nourishing Pill (Spiritual): Can increase lifespan by thirty years, repeated use reduces effectiveness]

[Obtained 10 Silver]

[Obtained 5 Copper Coins]

The three packages only contained these things, which was a bit little, but the Spiritual grade pill looked decent.

But Gu Chi didn't mind, it was just a small effort, it was good to earn something.

Especially since the system didn't provide players with funds this time, money became very important.

The last 5 Copper Coins were found on the man in the horse coat.

There were lanterns and copper gongs on the ground, which easily indicated that he was a night watchman.

This was a high-risk profession. Once encountering bandits or seeing something they shouldn't, ninety-nine percent of the time they would be silenced on the spot.

People in this line of work knew this, so they usually wouldn't carry money on them. If they had a wife, they would give it to their wife, and if they didn't, they would hide it themselves, leaving only enough money for a meal, so as not to lose both their money and life.

If this 5 Copper Coins were indeed used to buy breakfast, then if calculated as two steamed buns...

Gu Chi roughly estimated that the value of one or two silver coins was around 4,000 yuan.

Ten silver coins would be forty thousand, enough to stay in an inn and visit a brothel.

Of course, the premise was not to choose the top-ranked courtesans.

The top-ranked ones were usually more expensive and required additional payment.

He could sell the Innate Life Nourishing Pill and it would be enough, anyway, this thing was not useful to him.

In any case, Gu Chi was very satisfied with this start, the teleportation special effect was not bought in vain.

Well then, let's reward myself with a good meal.

Coincidentally, he hadn't eaten breakfast today.

Gu Chi walked out of the alley and walked along the street for ten minutes before finding an inn.

"Fenglai Inn... This name is not bad."

Gu Chi took a step forward.

Search "pawℝead.com" for the original.

"Bang, bang bang!"

The knocking sound of a night watchman woke up the inn's waiter.

He rubbed his eyes, got up from the bed made of four tables, and took an oil lamp to open the door.

The inn was already closed at this hour, but if there were guests knocking on the door, they would still be accommodated, but only for lodging, not for meals.

The cook was already asleep.

Gu Chi naturally understood this.

But he had money!

After entering, Gu Chi casually found a table and sat down, brushed off the dust on his cuff, and said domineeringly, "Bring your best wine and dishes."

The waiter looked hesitant, "Sir, our master..."

"Smack!"

Gu Chi slapped the ten silver coins on the table, "What's wrong with your master?"

The waiter became spirited, "Our master is still awake at this hour, sir, you came at the right time!"

"Just wait a moment, I'll go ask him to cook."

After a while.

There was a rustling sound coming from the backyard.

And a rooster crowing.

Cooking in the middle of the night was truly exhausting. He had already woken up early, and with the busyness during the day, if he slept late, he would be tired the whole next day.

But there was no other way, he gave too much.

After a while, the food and wine were served, and Gu Chi enjoyed them very much.

There was one thing he didn't expect, this inn actually had chili peppers.

Or rather, this era actually had chili peppers.

This made Gu Chi, who loved spicy food, a little pleasantly surprised. The next three years would not be boring.

Gu Chi drank good wine, ate good food, and naturally stayed in a better room.

It's worth mentioning that the rooms here were not divided by the traditional Heaven, Earth, and Man characters, but by Immortal, Profound, Spirit, and Mortal.

Although the inn was still an ordinary inn and the rooms were still ordinary rooms, it could be seen that the era was gradually changing due to the appearance of spiritual energy.

This was also a small hint that the quality of items should also be divided into these four levels.

An hour later, Gu Chi opened his personal interface and checked the leaderboard.

Gu Chi: "?"

What's going on?

The numbers after the player's ID should represent their current score.

It's understandable that he, a zero-point Gu Chi, couldn't understand, but the first place, Fish in the Pond, had 4 million points?

How long has it been since the game started?

Gu Chi: "......"

It's quite outrageous.

Fortunately, he had just entered the game, and the current ranking was not the final ranking.

Anything could happen in three years.

The early bird gets the worm, what if they suddenly died, right?

Gu Chi carefully looked through the names and confirmed that he didn't know anyone, then closed the leaderboard and started thinking about his name.The real-time ranking uses the player's real ID, so the name "Gu Yuan" can't be used. Otherwise, people would know you're a player and who knows when someone might plot against you while you're walking down the street.

He needs to change his ID.

Although he would be recognized later on, at least there wouldn't be any major problems in the early stages.

"Gu Changge it is."

Gu Chi decided to use the name he had made a name for himself with in his dreams.

Personally, he quite liked this ancient-style world, otherwise he wouldn't have had a month-long dream of being a cultivator.

It had nothing to do with the Holy Maiden or the princess, Gu Chi mainly liked the feeling of being unbound and free.

There was still plenty of time, Gu Chi wasn't in a hurry to earn points and climb the rankings, being impatient for quick results wasn't his style.

He planned to first understand this world.

Experiencing the customs and gathering information while doing so, this was the correct way to approach this game.

For example, the previously mentioned—

Visiting the brothel.
