Cultivation: Starting with Sterilizing My Own Father

In the border region of Northern Shu, in Shanliang Village, it was the dead of winter.

The fierce northwest wind felt like an ice-cold knife cutting into people's faces, causing a sharp, painful sensation.

Dark clouds covered the sky, casting a hazy gray hue over the surroundings, as if a heavy snowfall was imminent. In the snow, a small figure stealthily followed the man carrying a wine jar.

Although the stitches on the child's clothes were fine, even the best embroidery couldn't create cotton out of thin air. The clothes were made by piecing together several different scraps of fabric, and when there wasn't enough cotton, they were stuffed with rags, straw, and cotton wadding. This made the clothes look puffy and bulky, as if the child was wearing very thick clothes.

The little guy kept breathing on his hands to keep them warm, as if he wanted to put both hands in his mouth to keep them warm.

Wei Zhiying's teeth chattered uncontrollably from the cold, and she could barely speak: "Oh dear, this old man, he has to travel so far to drink a jar of wine!"

Wei Zhiying's previous life was that of an intern nurse who was killed by a medical dispute in the 21st century. She transmigrated into the body of a three-year-old boy in the present day. She gained this male body by increasing her chances of survival in this era and exchanging many merits.

But I'm still young, and for the sake of my future, I can only feel sorry for my current father.

Only after leaving the village and reaching a deserted mountain road did the man carrying the wine jars feel relieved enough to shout, "My son bought this wine for me! My son Xiaoying bought this wine for me! Hahaha! Good wine! Ten coins a pound!"

After shouting, she subconsciously looked around, which startled Wei Zhiying so much that she quickly crouched behind a tree, afraid that he would discover her.

Seeing her adoptive father carrying a wine jar and taking a shortcut up the mountain, Wei Zhiying quickly got up and followed.

In the dead of winter, almost no one goes up the mountain. The snow on the road is thick, making a crunching sound when you step on it. The advantage is that it's not slippery, but the disadvantage is that it's easy to get your shoes and socks wet.

Seeing her adoptive father finally sit down and start drinking while touching the snow beside him, Wei Zhiying breathed a heavy sigh of relief. She was worried that if she stayed cooped up there, she would freeze to death before the other man got drunk.

They quickly detoured to another landslide, which became the only way down the mountain because it was fast and easy to slide down. A piece of wood that had been prepared a few days earlier was stuck in the middle of the slope.

Wei Zhiying climbed up using both hands and feet, and tested the distance again. The height and dimensions of this place were similar to those in the Qing Dynasty. Her father was about five feet tall (165 centimeters) and his legs were about one meter long. Then she compacted the snow on both sides, making them like ridges in a field. This way, the landslide would become a simple slide, and even if the other party was drunk, they would not deviate from the track. After finishing, she picked up a stone from the snow and smashed it down heavily.

One, two...

Even after the stones warmed her up, Wei Zhiying wasn't satisfied. She threw them away, shook them vigorously to make sure they were solid, and then covered them with a layer of snow for protection. At this distance and speed, there was no problem.

The man drinking was Wei Zhiying's biological father, whom she had transmigrated to this world.

As Wei Zhiying ran back, she conjured a red cloth out of thin air and draped it over herself: "Father, don't blame your son. Our family is so poor, and you love to drink. In order to prevent another mouth from being added to our family, your son has no choice but to solve the problem at its root."

……

Wei Zhiying is an intern nurse from the 21st century. Her original name was Wei Lai. Despite the name her family gave her, Wei Lai is actually a very young girl.

As for the cause of death, it was truly heartbreaking. Studying medicine is already difficult enough. She finally became an intern nurse who earned no money but lost 2800 yuan. Then, when she was transferred to the last department, a pregnant woman holding her baby shouted that the hospital had switched her baby. Her supervising teacher ran away first, but when the woman saw Wei Lai wearing a white coat, she grabbed her tightly without saying a word and demanded her child.

The reason was also ridiculous. After the child was born, her husband's family saw that the child did not look like the man, so they did a paternity test. The result showed that the child was not related to the man, but was related to the woman. The mother insisted that the hospital had switched the babies, otherwise the child would definitely be related to her husband.

Wei Lai knew he couldn't hand over the baby and was about to call the police when the pregnant woman picked up the baby and smashed it on his head, hitting the back of his head several times. The outcome was predictable.

She had been nervous for a long time, thinking she would be reincarnated after death. After all, young people these days don't like having children, so if she were to be reincarnated, she would definitely be reborn into some tribe or another country. Or perhaps into a family that keeps having children, hoping to inherit the throne and find servants to take care of them.

To her surprise, what appeared before her was a tiny figure radiating white light, but whose features were clearly visible.

Wei Lai couldn't help but recall the moment he first saw that little man—

"Ding! Congratulations to this lady for successfully escaping. I am the intern system that received you, number 9527."

Wei Lai stared in astonishment at the empty white room, then at the smiling little figure before him: "Liberation...liberation?"

9527 crossed his arms and said matter-of-factly, "Yeah, what is it if not liberation? I've heard that you humans these days live life to the fullest every day. You can see that from the novels you read. In the past, it was either time travel through a museum or an antique shop. Now, people die from overwork, get hit by a car after a night shift. Oh, and there are also people who are killed because of medical disputes."

Wei Lai, who was killed by a patient who swung his child at him because of a medical dispute: ...

9527 unfolds a screen: "Given your good behavior in life, you will be transported to a completely fictional world."

Wei Lai's eyes lit up upon hearing this: "What kind of cheat ability do I have? Predicting the future or mind reading?"

9527 paused for a moment, then gave Wei Lai a standard professional fake smile: "Host's cheat ability is absolutely unprecedented and will never be surpassed. You can clearly see every bit of progress and every slight change you make. Moreover, you also have a spatial ability. Aren't you tempted?"

Wei Lai nodded quickly.

"We have compiled a list of all the merits and virtues of the host during his lifetime. Since you have never done anything that is against the laws of nature, you have not done anything good either."

After a series of operations on the screen in front of him, a number was displayed to Wei Lai: "Congratulations, host, you only have 250 merit points in this lifetime."

Wei Lai: ...

"Furthermore, given that the host was a medical professional, were there any cases of fatalities involving laboratory mice? Also, was the host's death suicide or an accident?"

After Wei Lai finished explaining the cause of his death, 9527 smiled awkwardly: "Then the host is quite pitiful, because the host died unjustly. Here, we will give the host ten merit points as a consolation."

"Only ten o'clock?!" Wei Lai was about to discuss things with 9527 again when 9527 quickly typed out: "In this world, you will live in the home of a wealthy businessman, and you will be his only daughter..."

"Wait, wait, wait!"

Wei Lai quickly interrupted him, saying, "What a joke! I've been a woman my whole life, why do I want to be one again!" So he immediately demanded that the role be changed to a man.

9527 looked at Wei Lai's merit points: "Darling, you only have 260 merit points. If you want to change your gender, you need 300 merit points."

Wei insisted on exchanging it, even if it meant lowering his family background and his parents' knowledge, and finally managed to accumulate 300 merits.

9527 sighed: "Alright. The adjustments here are complete. As per the host's request, I'll reassign the host to a male body. Don't worry, the body is perfectly healthy. Only the family background and parents' knowledge were adjusted; everything else remained the same."

After finishing, it said, "Alright, honey, by the way, since there have been other hosts who have transmigrated before, they always thought that since they transmigrated, they must be the protagonist of the world. They made a lot of stupid things and then blamed this system. So this system has learned its lesson and will not go on missions with the host. Therefore, it will not assign any missions to the host. Just treat this as a brand new life and live happily."

Wei Lai nodded in agreement: "Okay, thank you."

As soon as he finished speaking, a door suddenly appeared out of thin air behind Wei Lai.

"Alright, host, go out through this door and you can be born together with your sister."

"elder sister?!"

9527 explained, "It's like this. Since the host was originally a girl, the body initially arranged for you was also a girl's. Who knew you would suddenly want to change... It was all arranged, so we can only let the souls in line over there go in. But don't worry, host, she is from the original world, she doesn't carry any memories, and she's not from another world like you."

Wei Lai quickly said, "How can that be? I've already lowered myself so much, how can she survive if she's a girl?"

9527 clearly hadn't expected this: "This..."

However, at that moment, a huge suction force suddenly appeared from the door behind him, sucking Wei Lai inside.

9527 was horrified: "Oh no! A host complained that the cheat system wasn't good enough and made a huge fuss here, so they specifically set up a forced reincarnation at a certain time! This is terrible!! Such a huge bug, I'm doomed!"

……

Wei Zhiying shook her head vigorously. Ancient wines were all made from pure grains, without modern technology, so the alcohol content was relatively low. If you calculate it correctly, an adult can metabolize 10 to 15 grams of alcohol per hour. This large jar is enough to make him completely drunk. Only after confirming that her father, Wei Youcai, was thoroughly intoxicated did Wei Zhiying cover her face with a red cloth and jump in front of him.

Wei Zhiying pinched her nose: "Oh dear, look who this is! Which good-for-nothing is hiding here drinking? Is he afraid someone will see him and want a drink?"

Wei Youcai, already quite drunk, had blurry vision and felt his eyelids weigh a ton. He swayed as he stood up and said, "What the hell? Get away from me, or I'll beat you to death."

"Smash? Ha, what are you going to use to smash? Your straw sandals that are almost soaked through by snow water, or your cotton coat made of rags?" Wei Zhiying mocked, "It's obvious that this is your first time being human, and you've perfectly avoided all the standards of being human."

"Damn it..." Wei Youcai gulped down a mouthful of wine, swaying as he tried to punch him.

With her alert and agile little body, Wei Zhiying quickly ran across the slope where Wei Youcai was heading, pinching her nose and mocking him as she ran.

While a child may not necessarily outrun an adult, there's a high probability that he can outrun a drunk adult walking in an "S" shape.

Wei Zhiying ran to the landslide site, not forgetting to turn back and mock, "Oh ho, you're pretty fast, aren't you? Grandpa's waiting for you here!"

"You little brat..."

Using her petite frame, Wei Zhiying leaned to the side as much as possible, brushing against the withered branches as she slid down.

After Wei Youcai arrived, he retained some consciousness. Worried that he would spill his wine, he tilted his head back and gulped down the rest of the wine. Then, he threw down the jar and tried to slide down.

But he was drunk after all, and before he could squat down properly, his foot slipped, and he slid down the slope in a flash.

People who slip, especially those who are drunk, have a blurred and distorted world when they are drunk. Even when walking on flat ground, they will sway and subconsciously spread their limbs to maintain their balance.

"Bang!"

Wei Youcai's outstretched legs got stuck on the piece of wood that had been hidden in the snow.

His facial features contorted in pain instantly, and he instinctively tried to curl up, unable to utter a sound. It took him a long time before he let out a heart-wrenching wail.

Wei Zhiying instinctively covered her little brother: "It looks painful." But it should have been done sooner rather than later, to avoid having a younger sibling to burden me and my sister. She turned and ran, leaving only her scumbag father's wailing in the snow.

This was enough to cripple him even if he didn't die. Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Wei Zhiying ran home happily. The screams behind him were loud at first, but they soon fell silent.
