Chapter 106 Everything goes wrong
The first time Bai Han and Lu Sheng expressed their feelings to each other was when they were boating on the lake.
This time, the two were still boating on the lake. They wanted to have a good talk, but they started arguing again because of a disagreement.
Both of them were a little excited, and during the struggle, Bai Han accidentally fell into the lake.
She was a good swimmer, but that day her feet got entangled in seaweed for some reason and she couldn't get free, so she was gradually pulled into the deep water.
And just at that moment, the man in the dream suddenly called out to her ears.
Then she lost consciousness.
When she woke up, she was back in her own room, and her mother was anxiously waiting by her bed.
Seeing that she was safe, her family was relieved, but at the same time they told her that Lu Sheng jumped into the lake to save her and sank due to exhaustion.
Lu Sheng was rescued, but he has been in a coma until now.
Ever since Bai Han fell into the lake, her dreams at night have changed again.
The dream skipped the foggy scene that had been repeated for a long time. The man in the dream no longer moved in the same way as before, always following a fixed pattern. He was much more vivid than before.
He said that there was something wrong with her current lover, and the soul in that body was no longer the original one.
Bai Han was shocked and asked him how he knew that.
The man said that he had used up a lot of his magic power when she fell into the water, and it was with great difficulty that he managed to keep her safe. It was at that time that he noticed that something was wrong with Lu Sheng.
He asked Bai Han to think carefully, did she really fall into the water accidentally?
Bai Han felt a chill in her heart, recalling the situation when the two of them were arguing. Could it be that Lu Sheng was deliberately arguing with her so that he could push her into the water without making a sound?
But why?
She refused to believe it. If Lu Sheng wanted to harm her, why would he willingly put himself in danger to save her?
He is clearly still unconscious.
But the man looked at her with a hurt expression and said that it was not Lu Sheng who saved her, but himself.
Lu Sheng just pushed her into the water, and the boat was shaking so much that she lost her balance and fell in.
Bai Han didn't know whether she should believe him or not.
She felt increasingly uncertain, painful and confused.
The man in the dream said that it was because Lu Sheng was no longer the same person. Could it be that she hadn’t noticed anything unusual recently?
Being reminded of this, Bai Han finally remembered that she felt that Lu Sheng had changed since they came back from visiting the ancient town...
"So you believed what the man in your dream said, and thought that all the conflicts between you and Lu Sheng were because he was possessed by a wandering ghost?" Yun Qingqing asked pointedly after listening to Bai Han's story.
Bai Han bit her lip:
"I don't want this to be the case, but if this isn't the reason, why has he changed so much?"
Yun Qingqing looked straight at her:
"Since you have already reached a conclusion, why did you come to my Tianming Pavilion?"
Bai Han lowered her eyes and remained silent for a long while.
"Actually, although you consciously feel that everything the man said in your dream is reasonable, you still feel in your heart that something is wrong, right?" Yun Qingqing asked again.
Bai Han raised her head, her eyes reddened.
"Pavilion Master, can you tell me, is it true that the original Lu Sheng...can't come back?"
Yun Qingqing sighed softly and shook her head:
"Have you ever considered that Lu Sheng has always been the same Lu Sheng, and the abnormal person is you?"
Bai Han was stunned for a moment, her eyebrows furrowed:
"How could it be that I am not aware of whether I have been possessed or not?"
"I'm not talking about taking over someone else's body," Yun Qingqing said seriously. "You argued with Lu Sheng and concluded that he had changed. But haven't you seen each other for a while? During this time, apart from that dream at night, you didn't feel like you were often in trouble?"
Bai Han looked thoughtful as her eyes gradually widened.
"Now that you mention it... During that time, things really went wrong for me. I lost my beloved pearl hairpin, a string suddenly broke while I was playing the zither and nearly injured my eye, and one time I tripped and broke my knee for no apparent reason while walking on the road..."
It would have been fine if she hadn't thought about it, but as she started to count them, she found it more and more scary.
"Master, am I being entangled by something unclean?"
Yun Qingqing nodded:
"That's right. That thing has been following you ever since you went to the ancient town. Everything that has happened since then is related to it."
"All of them..." Bai Han's expression was complicated. "You mean, the man in my dream also..."
"Yes." Yun Qingqing nodded without hesitation.
"But..." Bai Han couldn't accept that all the accidents she encountered were caused by the man in her dream.
Yun Qingqing interrupted her directly and said firmly:
"That thing carries a yin energy that can make people restless, irritable, and easily angered. You're carrying it, and Lu Sheng, who's close to you and your destined marriage, is also affected by it, so we often quarrel over the smallest things."
"After Lu Sheng hadn't seen you for a while, he gradually got rid of the influence, but the thing's influence on you became deeper and deeper, until it could enter your dreams."
"Since then, it has been trying to take you away, which is why you encountered all the accidents."
"That thing relies on human vitality to nourish it. The longer you come into contact with it, the stronger its power will become. Small accidents will gradually become more and more serious until you die."
Bai Han listened to her in a daze, his face gradually turning pale.
"The day you asked Lu Sheng to go boating on the lake," Yun Qingqing continued, "it wasn't him who pushed you into the water. It was that thing that was causing trouble again."
"If Lu Sheng hadn't risked his life to save you, you would have been taken away by it that day."
Bai Han's lips trembled:
"So, he really did it for me..."
"That's right. In order to save you, Lu Sheng exhausted himself and sank into the water, falling into a coma. That thing took advantage of the opportunity and took away his two souls and six spirits. Now he only has one soul and one spirit left in his body, which is why he hasn't woken up yet."
"What!" Bai Han panicked. "How could this happen? If his two souls and six spirits can't come back, then he will never wake up again!"
Yun Qingqing said solemnly:
"Not only that, the remaining one soul and one spirit can't support this body for much longer. If those two souls and six spirits don't return to the body within a month, even a Daluo Immortal can't save him."
"Not only that, but he's missing so much of his soul that he has no way of going to the underworld, let alone reincarnating. He can only wander the world, and in the end, he'll either become food for other evil spirits or his soul will be scattered."
"How could this happen!" Bai Han covered her mouth and shook her head with red eyes.
"You...you must be lying to me! Ajue only came to find me after overcoming numerous difficulties because we were destined to be together in our previous life. He just wanted to be with me. How could he harm me...how could he kill Lu Sheng..."
Yun Qingqing looked at her distracted appearance and sighed deeply.
"Although you were born a spiritual being, truly developing spiritual intelligence requires a tremendous opportunity, which is extremely rare. You have worked hard to get to this day. Do you really want to completely fall into depravity because of a momentary impatience and taking shortcuts?"
Bai Han was stunned: "What?"
Yun Qingqing didn't say this to Bai Han.
