"Who is it?" Mi Shan was stunned, her dark pupils revealing a hollow confusion.
Should I know?
Bai Lingyu paused, staring at her in disbelief.
She almost couldn't help but blurt out the secret that Xie Ling was actually Li Changyu.
But after calming down, Bai Lingyu managed to restrain this desire.
She shouldn't have said it.
This is Li Changyu's secret, concerning his life and death.
She absolutely cannot reveal anything to anyone until she has figured out what really happened with Mi Shan.
Furthermore, even if Mi Shan wanted to know, it should be Li Changyu who told her.
"Yes, I was confused and almost ruined everything."
Bai Lingyu muttered to herself.
Mi Shan looked at her with a puzzled expression: "What are you muttering about?"
"It's nothing, don't worry about me. Anyway, I'm returning those two dreams to you. Don't ask me for them again next time. Although I have backups here, hehe, if you forget and want to see them again, this fox will charge you a fee."
After Bai Lingyu finished speaking, she playfully raised her eyebrows, looked around past Mi Shan, and gazed east and west.
What are you looking for?
Mi Shan frowned, her voice cold and clear.
"Well, didn't the Emperor allow you to take things from his private treasury today? How many treasures did you take? Are there any left over? Do you want to share some with me?"
Mi Shan: "...What do you, a fox spirit, want treasures for?"
"What are you saying? I'm a human now, aren't I? Even if I turn back into a fox in the future, I can hide the treasure in my cave and take it out to look at it occasionally. That would be a wonderful experience."
To put it simply, I just like it.
Mi Shan didn't say much, but led her to the lobby and opened a box.
The moment the box was opened, golden light illuminated Bai Lingyu's face. Her eyes lit up, and her hands trembled.
"Wow, so beautiful, so precious... What else?"
"That's all, that's all."
"You only took these few things? Why didn't you take more! It's okay if you don't like them, but I do! We're sisters, after all, you really don't care about me."
Mi Shan: "First, I don't think I ever said you were my sister. Second, this is all the stuff I have. Take it or leave it."
"Okay, then I'll just pick two at random."
"This, this, and this..." Bai Lingyu said, taking things while watching Mi Shan's expression. She noticed that even though Mi Shan was about to take everything, she remained unmoved.
His calm demeanor didn't seem to be an act at all.
She was completely unmoved!
"You're a really strange person. No wonder, you're different from everyone else."
After Bai Lingyu finished speaking, she suddenly leaned over and gave Mi Shan a quick kiss.
"What should I do, you... I've started to like you a little."
Mi Shan was startled, then vigorously rubbed her face, her cheeks flushed with shame and indignation: "You're disgusting."
"It's nothing for best friends to kiss, don't make a fuss. Consider this your reward. I'm off."
Mi Shan: "Thank you for this reward, but I won't accept it next time!"
"I don't want to give myself to you yet, there are plenty of people in this world lining up for my kiss. And don't doubt my orientation, I only like men!"
"There's no need to emphasize it anymore, the more you explain, the more ambiguous it becomes!" Mi Shan vigorously rubbed her flushed face, shook her head, and said she really couldn't do anything with her!
Fortunately, she wasn't human.
It's just a little fox.
I won't stoop to her level.
Finally, Mi Shan looked at the box and saw that Bai Lingyu had only taken one item.
Moreover, what she was holding was a necklace.
Mi Shan pondered,
When she mentioned "Xie Ling" just now, her tone was very strange.
It was as if she should know that person.
Who could it be?
"I think I've heard this name before."
In a flash, Mi Shan's eyes suddenly lit up.
Certain shameful images flashed through my mind.
—I remember now!
Xie Ling, this name was mentioned by Li Changyu.
In that Buddhist cave, he repeated in her ear as she drifted into a daze,
When I called her, she said, "Call me by my name," and I replied, "Xie Ling."
Is he Xie Ling?
Who is Li Changyu?
Did he have another name before? And why would she dream about "him"?
Did they meet when they were young? No, that girl couldn't be her. Anyway, this is all so strange.
Could it be that the Heart-Eating Worm was responsible for making their dreams interconnected?
Is this actually Li Changyu's dream?
After much thought, Mi Shan finally found a reasonable explanation for her bizarre dream.
Meanwhile, Bai Lingyu, who had left this place, walked along the long palace road, holding the pendant with great joy.
She would occasionally fiddle with the bracelet, hold it up to her eyes, or raise it to face the sun, watching the sunset's glow penetrate the crystal-clear pendant.
"Meow."
Suddenly, a cat's meow came from the bushes.
Bai Lingyu was stunned. She leaned closer and saw that it was a little tabby cat.
She looks a lot like the kitten she met outside.
Is it the same one?
No,
How could it have come from so far away?
The patterns are also different.
That little tabby cat once stayed briefly at the abandoned inn where she and Kong Wang had lived.
Now that they're all gone, that little cat will probably go back to being a stray.
It's actually quite pitiful when you think about it.
"It probably thinks it has a home now..."
Just like her,
I briefly mistakenly believed that I could keep Kong Wang there forever...
result,
"What is he doing now, little kitty? Guess if that stinky monk is bored locked in the tower?"
"Is anyone talking to him?"
"I wonder if he'll ever think of me. Just like right now, I'm suddenly missing him a little."
Bai Lingyu rested her chin on her hand, gazing listlessly at the orange-yellow sky.
If it weren't for what happened last time, which made Li Shengyuan's paranoia even more pronounced—claiming that he went to her palace that morning and found her not in her bedchamber—
He suspected she had sneaked out to do something bad behind his back in the middle of the night.
Therefore, the number of guards was specially increased.
Now it's almost impossible for her to sneak out at night to play.
It's not entirely impossible, after all, she's a demon; it's just that if something goes wrong and the emperor finds out...
She's probably fine.
Forgetting something in the mind is another matter.
-
at the same time.
Yunyin Temple.
The orange sun slowly descended, and it seemed that the last ray of light was about to be swallowed up.
Sitting in the sunset, Kong Wang, who was meditating quietly on the wooden floor, opened his eyes.
His expression was calm, giving people a sense of tranquility and peace.
The kitten beside him circled around him, purring.
Are you hungry?
Kong Wang lowered her eyelashes, revealing a gentle smile. With her pale, bony hands, she stroked the kitten's head and picked it up from the ground.
"Come on, I'll take you to eat."
