What you think about during the day, you dream about at night. That very night, Mingzhi had another dream.
He dreamt of his past life again.
He seemed to dream of things long after he had been beheaded. He felt light and floated between heaven and earth, and unknowingly returned to the long-decayed Dingyuan Marquis's mansion. But he heard the sound of weeping coming from the long-abandoned mansion.
