Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Those who came late gave birth to luck...
Even after hearing what Pi Lan said, Su Yun still couldn't connect the whole thing. The information she could get from the existing population was too little.
However, Su Yun realized that, in fact, she was only missing one person's perspective in this matter, and that was Lai Shu's. From her perspective, it seemed that she had nothing to do with Tianshui Garden and the Ding family, and it was an independent line. So when investigating Tianshui Garden, she should not have treated these accidents as one case.
"You said it was you, Lai Shu, shouldn't you also call it Su Yun? Su Yun's spleen." Su Yun came back to her senses and chose to make a joke. After all, it was something inside her body, so her attitude would definitely be much better.
Lai Shu laughed softly: "Hahaha, when I first woke up, my name was indeed Su Yun, but you also know that Su Yun has been hunted by too many people. You have a lot of enemies. If I were the second Su Yun, I wouldn't be able to live to see you."
Su Yun agreed with her: "You are right. Many people do want my body, but it was taken away a long time ago, and I still can't find out who did it."
Listening to Su Yun's teasing, Lai Shu was silent for a while, and replied helplessly: "I know you want to get the answer from me, but unfortunately, when I was conscious, I was already on the altar, and I can't know the whole process from beginning to end."
Lai Shu's experience is actually very short. She actually knows what she is, and she knows that she is Su Yun. She should survive, find her true self, and become a part of Su Yun's new body.
When she woke up, she was in a seamless coffin, but at that time she didn't know she was in a seamless coffin. She just felt that she was in a big box. She cried out to the heavens and the earth, but no one answered her. Later, she tried to destroy the coffin and leave. After all, being locked in a narrow box was very uncomfortable.
Lai Shu didn't know how many days it took to corrode the coffin with her own flesh and blood. The seamless coffin was almost becoming hers. She thought, if Su Yun had such a thing, could he hide so that his organs and eyes would not be dug out by others?
For this reason, Lai Shu suddenly wanted to take the seamless coffin away with her.
When she moved the seamless coffin, she found that the coffin was not the thing that trapped her, but just a container. What really trapped her was the altar and formation outside the coffin.
The formation was not very powerful, and it looked like a regular sacrificial formation. Lai Shu quickly realized that Su Yun's internal organs and eyes had been made into talismans, and used in conjunction with the formation to bring good luck.
Su Yun herself possesses extremely strong luck. She may not be that strong, but Master Ziyuan has worked hard for many years, and he probably has felt his limits. If he wants to transcend the limitations of his body, he must create a new container to give it a try.
Master Ziyuan created enough conditions for Su Yun to allow her to grow and become stronger, and he was just waiting to reap the fruits.
This caused Su Yun to change from a container to a treasure in the eyes of some people. Her body was an absolute treasure, a precious and useful thing, not a human being.
The person behind the scenes seized Su Yun's important organs, and with the help of formations and strange techniques, he changed Su Yun's fate and fortune bit by bit, thus replacing Su Yun and gaining excellent fortune.
In fact, from the moment a person is born to the moment he dies, it all depends on the word "luck". How a person lives his life depends entirely on luck. Seven parts are determined by fate, and three parts depend on hard work. No matter how powerful a person is, he may die on the eve of his ascension.
When Lai Shu saw the formation, she knew that Su Yun was being targeted, and the other party was very successful. The problem was that she didn't know why she woke up. She only knew that she had to find Su Yun, and no one could stop her.
"After that, you broke the formation and escaped?" Su Yun continued Lai Shu's words.
The spleen moved at this time, as if it was spreading blood vessels outward again. Su Yun found it very strange. The spleen had found him, so why was it still spreading outward?
As a last resort, Su Yun found a box for it to prevent his table from getting damaged.
As the spleen moved, the blood vessels shrank back, and only started to move again once they entered the box.
Lai Shu organized her words and said, "I didn't break the formation. That formation was designed to restrain me. I couldn't escape by myself. However, tomb robbers came to the mountain."
I don't know whether to say Lai Shu was lucky or unlucky. The tomb robbers heard that there was a tomb at the foot of the mountain and wanted to dig it. However, the whole mountain had been reinforced to store the altar. The tomb robbers couldn't dig an accurate hole no matter how they measured it. In frustration, they blew up one of the holes.
The explosion did not blow up the tomb, but instead caused a slight crack in the formation around the altar, almost as thin as a hair. Lai Shu had always wanted to run and was constantly attacking the formation, so she took advantage of this slight crack.
Lai Shu's consciousness came out, but her real body did not come out. However, the formation was still chasing her relentlessly, as if it had discovered that the sacrifice had escaped, and the formation turned into an invisible killer and chased after her.
After escaping, Lai Shu didn't dare to stop. She could sense Su Yun's location, so she ran towards Bincheng.
However, when passing by a nearby village, she was accidentally sucked over and lost consciousness briefly. When she woke up again, she already had the body of a human female.
Lai Shu was lying on a wooden bed, looking out over an old tiled house. The room was dark and she was covered with an old quilt. For the first time, she felt her hands and feet, and could touch things other than the coffin.
Before Lai Shu could finish exploring the house, the door curtain was lifted, and an elderly couple and an old man with a kind and sage-like face walked in.
The old man looked at Lai Shu carefully and said, "It seems that we made a mistake. It may be because your granddaughter has been reincarnated. What do you want to do now?"
The old couple burst into tears out of sadness. Only Lai Shu, who knew nothing, thought that she should leave, otherwise she would implicate them when the formation caught up with her.
But just when Lai Shu got out of bed and wanted to leave, the old man said to her: "Girl, you'd better not go out. The fact that you can come here shows that you are destined to live. If you have a body, it won't be able to find you."
Hearing this, Lai Shu froze in place, and immediately hesitated.
That night, the old man and the old couple were lighting a fire in the house and discussing what to do. Only then did Lai Shu understand what was going on.
It turned out that an elderly couple lived in the house. They had a son, who went to work in the city with his wife after getting married and only came back during the Chinese New Year. About two years passed like this, and the son brought back a granddaughter. He said he was very busy in the city and couldn't take care of her, so he sent her home to be raised by his parents.
The old couple's son and daughter-in-law could only come back once a year, during the Chinese New Year. But when their child was six years old, they thought they should take the child to school in the city, so they came back during the summer vacation. Unexpectedly, they encountered a landslide during the summer rainy season.
The son and daughter-in-law used their bodies to protect their daughter, and the daughter survived, but she had a problem with her legs and has been lame ever since.
The two old people cherished their granddaughter very much and raised her carefully. In this mountainous area where there are many young ladies, the fact that she was named Lai Shu shows how much they loved this child, which means beautiful, gentle and easy to accomplish.
It is difficult for uneducated old people to get such a name, so they used to ask someone to tell their fortune. The old man sitting next to you with a Taoist look is a local Taoist priest. People usually call him Sixth Uncle because he is sixth in generation.
Lai Shu was good at everything and was taken to school in the city by her grandparents, but her legs and feet were not good. After graduating from university, she decided to become a village official and return to the village to help the village and to be with her family.
It would have been a good ending, but a week ago, Grandpa and Grandma went into the mountains to collect herbs. When Lai Shu was a child, they would have left someone to look after her. Now that Lai Shu has grown up, Grandpa and Grandma went with them, telling Lai Shu not to cook and to just remember to go to the neighbor's aunt's house nearby to eat.
Usually it takes about one to two days to go into the mountains, which is a very common thing in Lai Shu's family. However, after grandpa and grandma came back, they found Lai Shu dead at home. She was strangled to death. Grandpa and grandma cried and carried Lai Shu to find the village doctor. After examination, they found that she had been raped.
Grandpa and grandma were devastated. It was no use crying and shouting because no one saw when someone broke into Lai Shu's house or how they killed Lai Shu.
In order to give Lai Shu justice, or rather, grandparents had an idea in mind, so they carried the body to ask Uncle Six for help.
After much hesitation, the Sixth Uncle only agreed to let Lai Shu come back to life for seven days. During these seven days, Lai Shu would be able to find the murderer and avenge himself. As long as she caught the murderer and sent him to the police station, she could also say goodbye to her grandparents.
Grandpa and grandma agreed. They wanted to see their granddaughter, even if it was just for the last time.
The soul-calling ceremony lasted for five whole days, until today when Lai Shu woke up, but it was obvious that it was not Lai Shu who woke up.
The grandparents next to them kept crying and asked Uncle Liu what to do. This wasn't their granddaughter. They had clearly performed the ritual for their granddaughter. How could she suddenly become a ghost and enter her body? They were going crazy. How was this any different from abusing their granddaughter again?
Uncle Six also felt guilty. He thought for a moment and asked, "Girl, what's your name? We are looking for a soul named Lai Shu, not you."
"My name is Su Yun, Yun like in cloud." They heard Lai Shu's body say this.
Everyone was stunned. Uncle Six was surprised: "You can read? Or are you a soul with self-awareness? What about Lai Shu?"
At this time, her grandparents were also looking at her expectantly, hoping that she would give a satisfactory answer.
But Lai Shu said, "I didn't see any spirits before I came here. You said, this body... the girl named Lai Shu, was murdered? Then she may have been following the murderer since the moment she died. It should be faster to find the murderer than to find her."
This gave grandpa and grandma hope, and they immediately asked Uncle Six for help. They believed that Lai Shu must want to catch the murderer, which was why they couldn't bring the soul back. They should find a way to catch the murderer!
After thinking about it for a whole night, Uncle Six made a decision - just pretend that Lai Shu was alive.
Both the grandparents and Lai Shu were shocked by this suggestion. How could someone take someone else's soul as his granddaughter?
But they were soon convinced by Uncle Six's explanation.
Firstly, the ghost who called herself Su Yun was being hunted, and it was fate that she entered Lai Shu's body. If she had been Lai Shu, she would not have been killed. Secondly, the murderer must have been very scared after killing Lai Shu. As long as it was announced that Lai Shu was not dead and the police had been called, he might come back to take a look.
Grandpa thought it was wrong: "How could that be? When he heard that this man was alive, he might think that he didn't kill anyone and live happily!"
Uncle Six shook his head: "No, do you remember? He dressed Lai Shu, which means he knew something happened to Lai Shu. If it was a normal person who did this, would he be so calm? Only an old hand would do something that seems meaningless."
There are many kinds of murderers, and cases of impulse killings are often the hardest to solve because the murderer will just walk away after killing someone, and will clean up every trace he left behind. However, the person who killed Lai Shu cleaned up Lai Shu and put her in clean clothes.
This shows that the murderer was very calm. He was used to seeing dead bodies and was not afraid of them. He did these things not to stop the police investigation, but for fun. Is there anything more interesting than coming back from the dead?
He will definitely come back to kill Lai Shu again.
Now, all "Su Yun" needs to do is play the role of Lai Shu for a short period of time. When the murderer is caught, Uncle Six will get her out and give Lai Shu a proper burial.
Grandpa and grandma agreed without hesitation, and Pi Zang, who had been trying to avoid being hunted by the formation, also agreed to this. From that day on, she had a second name, even though it was not her own, but it seemed like she had finally become a person. Her name was Lai Shu.
Life was easy at her grandparents' house. They treated Lai Shu as their own granddaughter. Perhaps out of emotional attachment or perhaps as an exchange with Lai Shu, they taught her the common sense that she didn't understand over and over again.
All of Lai Shu's living habits were developed during this period.
The police changed the murder case into a rape case and searched for the murderer.
Uncle Six was right. About a month later, the murderer came. Before seeing the murderer, Lai Shu first saw the soul following him. It turned out to be the soul of Lai Shu.
After following for so many days, the soul of the person who died unjustly has almost become a ghost. It is hard to say whether the murderer wants to come back to the crime scene to check or whether he is driven by a ghost.
The rest of the story was simple. Uncle Six let the original Lai Shu's soul return to her body to say goodbye to her grandparents. The murderer was caught by the police. After investigation, it was discovered that he was a tomb robber and murderer with more than one life on his hands. Although Lai Shu's life was not counted on him, the other murders were enough to sentence him to immediate execution.
The souls of the two Lai Shu squeezed into one body and lived with their grandparents for seven days. Seven days later, Lai's grandparents passed away, and the original Lai Shu followed them.
The sixth uncle said that the grandparents were already very old, and it would have been fine if everything went smoothly for them, but their only hope was that something happened to their granddaughter. Even though a second Lai Shu appeared, they still couldn't accept it. They were hanging on by a thread at first, but when the murderer was caught and they saw their granddaughter come back, they breathed a sigh of relief and passed away.
Before leaving, the original Lai Shu said, "I heard from Uncle Six that my body seems to be able to protect you. Thank you for finding me. Without you, my grandparents would probably have waited for many years and never saw me come back. Consider this body as a reward. From today on, you are the only Lai Shu."
The villagers helped with the funeral, and Lai Shu was the pallbearer. In those short two months, she seemed to have experienced the life of an ordinary person.
From learning to speak, to learning to walk, to growing up, to seeing her family members leave, Lai Shu was finally left alone. She even found it difficult to tell whether she was Su Yun or Lai Shu.
After the funeral, Lai Shu returned to the dilapidated old house, where she was alone, quiet and dark.
It turned out that the house with only one person was so empty and so quiet, so quiet that only the chirping of insects in the mountains and the barking of dogs in the village could be heard.
Lai Shu stood at the door of the tile-roofed house and could see the formation that was winding around the mountains but could not find its target. This was the only thing that reminded her that she was a part of Su Yun, but she hesitated whether to go find Su Yun.
Perhaps all things that have developed intelligence will have this kind of thought. Although Lai Shu knew that Su Yun would definitely not mind, she was very conflicted and could not tell whether she was Lai Shu or Su Yun.
Uncle Six would occasionally visit Lai Shu, teach her some Taoism and magic, and teach her how to protect herself. But one year during the continuous spring rains, landslides occurred, houses collapsed, and Lai Shu lost her place to live. She had no money, so she had to leave.
People in the village said they could help rebuild it, but the rebuilt house would no longer look like the original one. The original houses could not be dug out as they were all buried in the soil.
Lai Shu said goodbye to everyone in the village, carrying a cross-body bag sewn by a neighbor lady, and walked out of the mountains step by step towards Bincheng.
"Actually, I've seen you when you were still a mummy." Lai Shu said this to Su Yun, and she began to uncontrollably produce countless blood vessels, baring their fangs and claws.
Su Yun was stunned: "You have been to the funeral home? Why didn't you come to see me and my parents?"
During the first two years after his rebirth, Su Yun was wrapped up like a mummy. There was not a single healthy spot on his body. All his flesh and bones had to grow back, and he could not see anyone.
Lai Shu said calmly: "Because I found that you already have a new spleen, which is better and healthier than mine. I know that I am not abandoned. You will die without me. Maybe I came a little late. If I hadn't hesitated in the mountains for so long, you wouldn't have to replace another spleen..."
But this is how the world is. When you are late, you will have to wait and see.
"I suddenly feel very glad that you have a new spleen. I still want to be Lai Shu. Lai Shu can go out and see many places, instead of being a mummy." Lai Shu said cunningly in a tone exactly the same as Su Yun.
They are so similar, whether it's the way they think or the tone of their voice, they are the same person.
Lai Shu came quietly and left quietly. During those two years, she traveled to many places and saw many people and things. Until this year, she met Su Yiling and Ji Weitong in the south.
Ji Weitang said: "Although this is the first time we've met, I like you so much. You feel like my daughter."
Su Yiling and Ji Weitang did not calculate their fate with each other in a rude way, but said it lovingly, but Lai Shu knew them.
Lai Shu thought it was amazing, so she asked them, "Are they very similar? In what ways?"
"You look very similar to me now when you are calm. Although you are calm, I can feel your emotions. It's a very special feeling." Ji Weitang described it. The more she described, the more similar it seemed, as if Su Yun was standing in front of her.
Some things can be said too clearly, so Lai Shu quickly said, "It's an honor. I also think you are very much like my grandparents."
The sudden increase in generational level interrupted Su Yiling and Ji Weitang's train of thought, and they forgot to consider Lai Shu's situation.
They only met briefly in a village in the south. Before they parted, Ji Weitang suddenly handed her a business card and said, "Little girl, I see you are destined to meet, so I'll give you this business card. If you need anything, you can take this business card to find our daughter, and she will definitely help you. Also, we've helped you get rid of the things that are with you."
Lai Shu didn't react at all. When she came to her senses, she only saw the backs of Su Yiling and Ji Weitang walking away. She didn't even have time to say thank you.
The formation had been following her. Since she had a body, they couldn't catch her and couldn't leave, so she was always floating nearby. She didn't expect that the thing she couldn't deal with was solved so easily by others.
Without the surveillance of the formation, Lai Shu felt relaxed and happily visited several places until she received a message from her sixth uncle saying that the child of one of his relatives had fallen from the upstairs for unknown reasons.
The child was fine, but suddenly he went crazy and said that his parents only cared about his grades and didn't love him at all. After making a fuss, he jumped off the balcony. Fortunately, nothing happened. Afterwards, the child said that he fell by himself. His parents were also confused for a moment, because they actually saw the child jumping off.
But since the children said so, they had no choice but to go along with it for fear of further upsetting the children.
This matter was too strange, and the relative remembered that there was a person like Uncle Six in his hometown, so he wanted to ask Uncle Six to go over. However, Uncle Six was old, and he felt that he could not move around very well, so he called Lai Shu and asked Lai Shu to take a look. If Lai Shu could not solve the problem, he would go over again.
Lai Shu had no objection. She was now free and without any formation following her, so she could go anywhere. So she returned to Bincheng and went to Tianshuiyuan to visit the child who jumped from the building.
After her examination, she found that there was no problem with the child except that his fortune was slightly abnormal. She explained to the family that children have weak souls and are easily affected by environmental changes. Perhaps they were not able to adapt to the move or class change. They just needed to pay more attention to the child, let him exercise more, and rest more.
After saying goodbye to the family who kept thanking her, Lai Shu took the elevator and left. After walking out of the building, she looked around to check the road signs. She was not familiar with the community and had forgotten where the gate was.
Out of the corner of her eye, Lai Shu saw the pond behind the building. She was stunned for a moment, then slowly walked over. She stood by the lake and stared at the bottom of the lake for a long time - that lake gave her the same feeling as a formation.
Why can a lake give her the feeling of a formation?
Did the formation catch up? Or was the formation not broken up at all?
Lai Shu subconsciously wanted to run away, but after leaving for two days, she couldn't help but come back. This time, the formation at the bottom of the lake looked more complete and clear.
At this moment, Lai Shu finally reacted - it was true that the formation was broken up by Su Yiling and Ji Weitang, but the roots of the formation were still in the mountains. In other words, the formation there could be repaired infinitely. As long as the formation under the altar was not destroyed, the formation would keep finding ways to repair itself and catch up with her again.
However, Lai Shu did not have the same cultivation as Su Yiling and Ji Weitang. Her real body was actually still in the coffin, and she was greatly restricted. It was only her consciousness that escaped. Without Lai Shu's body, she would have been broken up and swallowed up by the formation long ago.
