5 Qin Yu Learns Meditation for Dummies
[Ding!]
[The Will of the World concerned about your mental health. The Will of the World sends you a small red packet. Do you wish to open it?]
"Guh…!"
Qin Yu nearly choked out of shock and stared incredulously at the blank space in front of her. Her previous gloominess disappeared just like that and was replaced with bewilderment instead.
"Even the World's Will know that I'm depressed? How embarrassing…"
'That's not the problem here!'
"Since when did I get a supernatural entity as a psychiatrist?!"
'No, it's still wrong!'
"Xiao Hong, please let me know the truth. Will the World's Will peep at me when I'm bathing?"
Qin Yu asked with the most serious expression she'd ever mustered in her whole life.
Xiao Hong: "…."
"Hey, hey, don't go quiet on me now, Xiao Hong!"
[The Will of the World can only vaguely sense what happened to the host and is not directly observing the host]
"Fyuuuh…"
When Xiao Hong confirmed his answer, Qin Yu exhaled a long sigh of relief. As long as it didn't cross her bottom line—that only her future spouse could see her naked body, or become a threat to her survival, she didn't mind the World's Will to keep an eye on her. Moreover, she might get the benefit from it.
It was akin to a v-tuber or a streamer personality who created a channel and published content for audiences to watch, and sometimes, if the audience was generous, they would give them a gift.
In the past, she'd once wanted to give it a try, but as she made an evaluation of herself, she found that she didn't have any redeeming qualities.
Singing? Her voice was average, it wasn't bad, but it also didn't have much oomph in it.
Gaming live-streamer? Out of 10 games, the time she ate a chicken for dinner could be counted on a finger!
Ghost hunter? She was afraid of ghosts the most, especially zombies. She fucking hated zombies!
So, she quickly threw the idea in the trash can.
But she never expected to encounter something similar in this lifetime, and even better, the gift was something that a v-tuber or streamer could only dream of!
Hehe, as some wise men said, "there will be a rainbow after a storm." She suffered such grievances in her previous life, so it was time for her good fortune to shine!
Qin Yu was really excited about the prospect of her future!
Oops… She almost forgot that she had a cute red packet waiting for her to open it!
What would she get this time?
A divine pill from the future that could instantaneously eliminate her anxiety? A powerful mind cultivation technique that improves her mental power and calms her mind? Or A beautiful older sister in a nurse outfit who would soothe her heart out of her depression?
Kekeke… Baby, come to mommy!
"Xiao Hong, open the red packet for me!"
[Congratulation! You get a book, Seven Ways to Overcome Your Fear: Start with Meditation Techniques for Dummies.pdf]
Qin Yu: "…."
Xiao Hong: "…."
"Damn it!"
Qin Yu wanted to cry but there was no tear.
What happened to my divine pill?!
Where is my powerful cultivation technique?!
Where on earth my beautiful older sister Nursey?!
And it's not even a paperback! But a free e-book that can be downloaded on the internet!
Xiao Hong, do you hate me now?!
World's Will you have changed!
Qin Yu slumped on her bed, lamenting how bitter her life was. She remembered that the more expectations you had, the more disappointed you would become. The adage had some truth to it.
Pah—
Both of Qin Yu's slim cheeks turned red from her slapping. With an oomph, she chided herself, "Qin Yu, pull yourself together!" She took a deep breath to calm herself down and made a self-evaluation of her current state.
"My mental state is really unstable right now, I get easily excited and my mood swings are out of my control. I don't remember that I was this bad in my previous life. Is this because I was a zombie for such a long time? This… can be bad…"
"With such an abnormality, Big Sis Luo will easily realize there was something wrong with me. How can I explain it to her? No, in the first place, can I have a normal talk with her? I'm not even confident that I can see her in her eyes… What should I do... what should I do... "
Qin Yu's finger couldn't stop fidgeting; she pushed her lower lips slightly forward, blowing some wind from the gaps between her lips, causing her bang to slightly float upward. She always did the routine subconsciously whenever she felt distressed, ever since she was a snotty brat.
"Should I avoid her for the time being?"
She immediately shook her head and let out a wry smile.
"Not even an hour ago, I made a promise to myself to be with her, protect her, and make her happy. And now I already want to avoid her? Qin Yu, oh, Qin Yu, you're such a hypocrite…"
"I can't give up. Not this time. "
Qin Yu wanted to give the new item a try. "This item came from the system; it can't be that bad, right?" calming down a bit, Qin Yu found that she had looked down on the system's item just because it sounded ordinary. If she had used a little bit of her brain, she must have noticed that nothing came from the system that was remotely ordinary. There must be something special about the items, and this new item would not be an exception.
Finished convincing herself, she opened her exclusive inventory and requested a detailed explanation from Xiao Hong. A series of descriptions faded in her mind.

It helps to strengthen your mind and memories, clear your thought process, and train your mind to control your emotions. There are seven layers, and every unlocked layer will grant the host benefits.

'Surely, it seems that this item is not as simple as it looks.' She thought inwardly.
"Xiao Hong, retrieve the item for me."
[Ding!]
[Host has successfully learned the "Clear Mind and Tranquil Heart Sutra"]
[The first layer of Clear Mind and Tranquil Heart Sutra has been unlocked. Host's negative emotions are slightly suppressed, and your positive emotions are slightly enhanced.]
A ton of new information was stored inside Qin Yu's brain, starting from the use of meditation chant and breathing techniques to a special mind technique like mind palace, telepathic communication, and even telekinesis!
Even a teaser like this could make her heart thump like crazy.
"Ah Xiao Hong, World's Will, I'm sorry that I have wronged you! I know you like me the most!"
Unfortunately, Qin Yu wouldn't be able to learn it before she unlocked at least the third layer of Clear Mind and Tranquil Heart Sutra.
Nevertheless, she was happy to get such an incredible treasure right from the beginning.
Furthermore, she had already tasted the miraculous effect of the meditation technique, even though she'd only unlocked the first layer.
She felt that she had become more courageous, optimistic, and confident. All the unnecessary thoughts she had in the beginning were greatly diminished. At least, she believed she could interact normally with Ling Luo without much problem for now.
All she needed to do was to tackle the first obstacle: get her feet out of her room and go downstairs to get her breakfast.
