The wind and rain were bitter and the houses were dilapidated.

There was a big hole in the roof. There was a water tank in the house, which was filled with rainwater. The shadow of the moon was reflected in the water. The crescent moon was thin and carried a chill.

There is a moon in the water and there is also a moon in the sky.

The sound of the dripping rain, accompanied by the sound of the wind, gradually shattered the reflection of the moon in the water tank.

A fire was lit on the east side of the house, and several women sat around it to keep warm.

Soon the rain stopped, and the moon in the sky became brighter. The green hills outside the window were shrouded in the night, looking hazy and unreal. The moonlight was like frost, and the green hills were charming.

Gu Yinwei gazed at the green mountains and the moon, and always felt that the mountains and the moon were also gazing at her.

She recalled the day when she had an argument with her master and was scolded by her master.

"Gu Yinwei, your ascension is imminent, but you are not concentrating on cultivating immortality, but reading miscellaneous books every day."

"I've been practicing hard. I plan to stay up all night to practice cultivation."

Gu Yinwei answered casually, but her eyes did not move away from the storybook. Her hands were turning the pages quickly, and an infatuated expression appeared on her face.

Grandmaster Hongmeng stepped forward, snatched the book from her, and threw it heavily to the ground. "You're just looking around and not doing your work."

Ancestor Hongmeng was furious. He snapped his fingers and a fireball jumped onto the picture book, burning it to ashes.

As a result, Gu Yinwei's heart was also burned to ashes.

"Why did you burn my book? I haven't finished reading it yet."

"Look and see, sooner or later I'll get into the book."

"You burned all the books."

"You bold and wicked disciple, yet you still refuse to repent. Your master will now send you into the book to experience the birth, aging, sickness, and death of mortals, and to temper your temper."

Gu Yinwei was furious at the time and retorted, "Go ahead, I'm not afraid."

"Okay, okay, as you wish."

Ancestor Hongmeng was so angry that he said "good" three times in a row, then flicked his sleeves and threw her out.

She was just speaking out of anger, but the master actually threw her into the book. She hadn't finished reading the book yet. Now her immortal bones have been removed and she can't use her immortal power. What should she do in the future?

It's too windy outside, let's go and warm ourselves by the fire.

As soon as Gu Yinwei sat down, the women immediately drove her away.

Among these women, there was one with broad shoulders and a round waist, high cheekbones, and a black mole on her lip.

"Second Miss, you are a natural nemesis, so don't come to harm us."

Gu Yinwei had just sat down and had finally warmed up her cold hands, but she was chilled to the bone by the woman's words.

In the original novel, the youngest daughter of the Gu family ranks second in the clan. The maids in the family call her the eldest lady, and only the elders in the clan call her the second lady.

Now that her mother's mourning period has not yet ended, she was sent to Yugu Village. This house with drafts on all sides is the ancestral home of the Gu family.

These women sent Gu Yinwei here and will have to return to the Gu family tomorrow. From then on, whether Gu Yinwei lives or dies will depend entirely on her own destiny.

Gu Yinwei stood up from the fire and left silently.

The women continued to sit around the fire, discussing how to please the new wife and thinking about how to get a more leisurely job.

The real Miss Gu was poisoned to death by a servant as soon as she returned to the ancestral home. Gu Yinwei traveled here and continued the life of this ten-year-old girl.

The women who were warming themselves near the fire were talking and adding firewood to the fire. The fire burned brighter and brighter, but the women felt colder and colder, and some of them even shivered.

It was as if what they were surrounding was not a pile of blazing flames, but a piece of ice that had not melted for a thousand years.

One of the women asked, "Grandma Zhong, why is it getting colder?"

Granny Zhong said, "Fire is just a pile of ashes. The more it burns you, the more you wither."

"Don't make a fuss. Stand up and stretch your legs. After tonight, we'll all be going back."

When Grandma Zhong said this, she secretly glanced at Gu Yinwei's expression, as if she wanted to see timidity on Gu Yinwei's face, expecting Gu Yinwei to come and beg her.

However, Gu Yinwei stood straight, like a tall pine tree. Even though she had fallen into such a state, the noble aura around her still remained.

She won't sit on the floor, drink dirty water, or make loud noises.

The women left the fire, and Gu Yinwei squatted down beside it. She pressed her hand on the ground, and an ice talisman flew out of the fire, and the fire immediately became warm again.

Granny Zhong led a group of women to poison people and wanted to go back to ask for rewards from their master. There is no such easy thing in the world.

Granny Zhong and others, under the instructions of the new wife, hired people to destroy the ancestral house. The big hole on the roof was the work of Granny Zhong.

At this time, Gu Yinwei was staring blankly at the roof, while Grandma Zhong and others had been asleep for a long time.

Although Gu Yinwei had her immortal bones removed and lost her immortal powers, her ability to draw talismans was still there. Unfortunately, her body was too weak, and she could only barely draw an ice talisman and a thunder and fire talisman.

Gu Yinwei spent a lot of effort to draw these two talismans. She will not be able to draw runes for the next half month. She has to wait until her body fully recovers before she can draw talismans again.

Suddenly, there was a loud thunder in the second half of the night. Some brave villagers opened the windows and looked out. Many people saw that the Gu family's ancestral house was hit by lightning. The village chief and the head of the village came to rescue with several young men.

Gu Yinwei took two handfuls of ashes from the ground and smeared them on her face, holding a dusty jar in her hands.

"Oh, the house has collapsed. Everyone, hurry up and look for anyone alive."

"Village chief, I found it. I found a little girl."

The village chief saw Gu Yinwei standing alone in the dark night, with so many people dead in the house, but she was just a little girl, not crying or making a fuss. She seemed too calm and it was too unreasonable.

Gu Yinwei saw the village chief's suspicion and immediately pretended to cry twice.
