Chapter 181 Clone
I feel a little regretful, but it's too late to say I can't hear now.
"Yes, I can hear you... Um, do you have any unresolved sorrows? I'll see if I can help you and send you away. But don't blame me if I can't do it!" I was blocking it from both ends, fearing that I would not be able to send it away and offend it again.
"Thank you, young lady. Alas, I don't know where to start. I guess you must be in a difficult situation. Could you pass a message for me?" The voice spoke softly and politely.
"Tell me, I want to hear if it can be done."
"Well, please go find Miss Jingye and ask her to save me."
When I heard Jingye's name, I curiously opened the bag to see who was looking for Jingye.
Unexpectedly, when the bundle was opened, I saw the other person face to face, and we were both stunned.
Inside the crystal is my face.
She looked at me, as if she was also stunned, and asked: "Who are you?!"
I shuddered, remembering my fake identity, and didn't dare to answer, so I asked her: "Who are you?"
She opened her cherry lips and said, "I am Lanxiang."
My brain exploded. I didn't expect to meet the original owner of this body here.
I quickly comforted her and said, "Miss Lanxiang, don't worry. I don't know how I got into this body, and I don't know how you got out of it. But since you can get in and out, I think you can still come back. Don't say anything, come back to the room with me, and we can talk slowly, okay?"
Lan Xiang in the crystal nodded and said, "There is no other way, it's up to you, young lady."
I covered the sun's rays crystal with a bag and returned to my room with a heavy heart.
After closing the door, I opened my bag and said to her, "Miss Lanxiang, I came in for no apparent reason. Do you remember how you got out?"
She frowned slightly and said, "That day I was on duty in the young master's room. I got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet. On the way back, I heard some noise here, so I came to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, as soon as I stuck my head out, I was hit hard on the back of my head. I had a terrible headache and fell to the ground. Then I felt dizzy, as if my soul had left my body, and I could actually see my own body. I saw the man squatting down to look at me, and when he raised his head... it was actually-"
I asked hurriedly: "Who is it?"
Lanxiang replied: "It was the eldest young master. When he saw that I was the one being beaten, he sighed, turned around and went back into the house. At this time, I seemed to be unable to control myself and flew up. When I flew here, I reached out to grab the eaves, but the auspicious beast on the eaves sucked me in. I couldn't get out and couldn't see. I could only cry and shout, but no one answered me. I don't know how long it took before I finally saw you. I felt like I was sucked out by your stone."
After hearing about her experience, I had a rough idea in my mind. Maybe she was seriously injured by the Tushan Hou and her soul left her body. I happened to enter her body by chance. She was not really dead, so her soul was immortal. This Sun Crystal Stone no longer had the seven-day limit. Once it approached her, it could not help but absorb her wandering soul into it.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, she asked again: "What's your name, young lady? May I ask if the eldest and second young masters are doing well now?"
I said seriously, "I am Lanxiang now, and I can only be Lanxiang. As for the eldest and second young masters, they are fine for now, but I'm sure you've figured it out. The situation is like an arrow on the string, and the only thing left is who will let go first. Whether they are fine or not, it also has a lot to do with you."
Lanxiang was puzzled and asked: "What do you mean?"
I didn't answer her, but just asked: "Let me ask you, you were concerned about both the eldest and second young masters just now. If the two of them really fought, who would you support?"
Lan Xiang lowered her eyes, and when she raised them again, tears were in her eyes: "To be honest, the eldest young master and I...were in love with each other, and I had already promised my heart to him. But the second young master is my master after all, and we grew up together. I...I just hate that I am alone and cannot be split in half."
I nodded: "How can I have both in this world, not to disappoint the Tathagata and not to disappoint you. In this case, I will give you an idea, I wonder if you agree or not. I advise you not to get involved in this war. Think about it, the young master defeated you but did not save you. What is his attitude towards you? I don't need to say it clearly, right?"
"Maybe he didn't see clearly, or he had something urgent to do first, and will come later--" Lanxiang helped Tushanhou explain.
I looked at her steadily, and she pursed her lips. Then I said, "You can maintain your position as Tushan Jing's personal maid all the way. You must be smart. I know you like Tushan Hou, but think about it calmly. If he really cares about you, would he leave you injured aside to do things first? Even if he didn't see you clearly, is it a kind act to hurt people in your brother's yard without caring about their lives? If a man is not kind, do you expect him to be good to you and kind to you? Is this possible?"
"He...I, I actually thought about it, but I just didn't want to believe it." Lanxiang said crying.
"Then you just listen to me. I will put you in a safe place and then find a way to get you back. I have errands every day now, and I don't know when I can find the way. You must trust me and don't make things complicated. Otherwise, you will be the witness of Tushan Hou's wounding and theft. If he wants to kill you to silence you... I can't save you."
Lan Xiang nodded: "I am unable to move in this place, so I have to obey you. Even if...even if you don't want to help me, I have no other options. But from what you said, you are a smart and kind person, and you won't lie to me."
I said, "That's great. Wait for me a moment. I'll come back after I finish my work. Think about it and I'll think about it to see if there's a better way. But remember, don't speak out."
Lan Xiang bowed in the crystal stone and said, "Don't worry, young lady. I know what to do."
I put the bag containing the crystals at the bottom of the suitcase, thought for a while, found a small copper lock and locked it, then I felt at ease to go out.
When I reached the door of the study, my heart was still in turmoil. I made up my mind and said to Ruiyang who was standing at the door: "Ruiyang, the master asked me to get something."
Ruiyang didn't suspect anything and opened the door for me.
I walked in and came to the place where Tu Shanjing stored the Sunlight Crystals. I took one and held it in my hand. Then I walked out of the study room, raised my hand and turned back to Ruiyang and said, "The young master asked me to take the Sunlight Crystal to collect a wisp of Xinwang's residual soul. I got scared halfway and accidentally hit it. I came to get another one. It's urgent, so I'll take it first. You can report to the young master later. If the young master wants to punish me, just punish me."
Ruiyang stood at the door and smiled, saying: "Look at what the girl said! The girl You Guangjin wore it for a day and it broke, and the young master didn't say anything, so what's a small Sunlight Crystal?"
