Returning to the bamboo house, Song Lan focused her gaze on the medicine shelf, her eyes sweeping over each bottle and jar in front of her.
These are all the various medicines she developed to treat and save lives.
After a while, Song Lan regained her composure and murmured, "How do I get out?" Lying back on the bed, she tried to silently repeat "get out" in her mind.
The next moment, she was indeed back in her and Qin Yanzheng's bedroom bed.
She was lying flat on her back, wearing a dress that she had casually picked up in the bamboo house of the Divine Doctor Valley.
Ignoring her astonishment, Song Lan tried several more times to confirm that she was not dreaming.
She can not only enter and exit the Valley of Divine Healers with her whole body, but also retrieve items from the Valley of Divine Healers through her thoughts, and put items into designated locations within the Valley of Divine Healers.
Well, if Song Lan were from the future and had read online novels, she would know that for her in the present, the Divine Doctor Valley is essentially a space for storage, planting, and raising livestock.
"You already know, don't you?"
A soft, delicate female voice suddenly rang out, and she spoke in a declarative tone.
"who?"
Song Lan became alert. She suddenly sat up and saw a woman standing at the foot of her bed. To be precise, it was a faint, ethereal figure, but it was not hard to see that the other person had the same appearance as her, and the other person's clothing was clearly the kind of clothing that women in this world should wear.
"You want your body back?"
She could tell who it was from the other person's appearance and clothing, but Song Lan remained calm. The wariness in her eyes and the guard on her body disappeared, and her gaze became clear and calm. She said, "If you can let me leave, I have no objection. After all, the body originally belonged to you. Although I did not enter willingly, I am now using it. But in the end, I still need to apologize to you and thank you at the same time."
Even though she was leaving her current body now, she didn't feel any regret. After all, in her world, given her situation at the time, she was destined to die. Well, the fact that her soul could leave her body meant that she was probably already dead.
The serendipitous encounter that brought her to this world was a bonus for her, even if she only lived for two or three more days, it was still a net gain for her!
Moreover, this extraordinary encounter made her realize how wonderful the era in which people live in later generations is—a stable life and gender equality!
Song Lan felt that even if she were to disappear from the world right now, having lived two lives, it would have been worth it!
"You've misunderstood. The fact that you were able to enter my body was actually... something I asked for."
The woman's face showed neither joy nor sorrow: "I don't need to say more, you already know who I am. I just want to leave you with a few words before I leave."
Song Lan remained silent.
The woman continued, "The long string of events you're processing is actually my life, or more accurately, my life where I was controlled by others. But it's also because I'm brainless that I was led by the nose by others..."
I never expected to be reborn after death, but I don't want to walk the same path again. Even though that so-called counterattack system said it would help me and showed me the life I lived without being controlled by Song Jiaojiao, I still don't want to be myself again.
Did you know? We're currently in a book called "The Prodigal Son's Pregnant Little Wife," and I'm just a cannon fodder character, the male lead's white moonlight. In the original story, unlike my own life, I wasn't led by the nose, foolishly and tragically dying before the age of thirty.
However, on her fortieth birthday, she caught her husband walking down the street with another woman while in a loveless marriage.
In a daze, I don't know how I ended up in the middle of the road, and then I was hit and thrown into the air by a speeding car. This is what that "reversal system" told me. What I'm telling you is... no matter how I live, my life is just a tragedy.
I don't want that kind of life, and I'm unwilling to accept it. I'm tired. I'm willing to give up my body and all my accumulated merits from past lives, and beg that so-called "reversal system" to find someone to live in my place.
Help me protect the Qin family and my parents' family in the countryside... I know I owe Qin Yanzheng a debt of guilt. If he hadn't appeared in time to save me and marry me back then, I probably would have committed suicide.
But I... but I acted like a villain, divorcing him while he was seriously injured and in a coma. Later, when I learned that he and the rest of the Qin family had all died, I was filled with guilt. I'm sorry to Qin Yanzheng; I didn't remember his kindness and chose to leave him when he needed me...
Back in the countryside, my parents suffered because of me; they didn't get any good treatment. I didn't know that until after I died, I somehow drifted to Song Jiaojiao's house. I saw her learn of my death and saw her give a piercing smile, and heard her muttering to herself. I realized that everything I had suffered was her scheme…
The woman spoke at length, her ethereal figure becoming increasingly transparent: "Can you grant my request?"
"good!"
Song Lan nodded.
"Thanks!"
The woman bowed and then said, "That 'reversal system' that claims to be number 666 is asleep. I don't know when it will wake up, but waking it up should be related to merit. When you need it, you can..."
Before the woman could finish speaking, her illusory, transparent form vanished completely. She tried to awaken him with good deeds.
Needless to say, the woman who appeared before Song Lan and spoke to her at length was...
—The original owner!
The original owner of Song Lan's body.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Song Lan recalled what the original owner had said. It turned out that her arrival in this world was due to cause and effect. It turned out that her ability to enter and exit "Divine Doctor Valley" as a whole person or just her consciousness was due to the system.
Merit?
The original owner used her own physical body and accumulated merits from past lives to ask the system for help, so that it could bring her to live in her place, in addition to the unfinished words left behind by the original owner before she disappeared.
It seems she has accumulated a great deal of merit.
Song Lan lightly tapped her knee with her fingers, deciding to ignore the system for now.
She lived her life as she pleased, without needing to seek help from external sources.
Yes, in Song Lan's mind, the counterattack system that the original owner mentioned was just a "thing".
Thinking that the original owner had been by her side since she arrived, Song Lan didn't feel scared, but she couldn't understand why she didn't cherish the opportunity to be reborn and try to change things.
A moment later, Song Lan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Lack of courage and the will to give up?
Perhaps it was a lack of courage and the numbness brought on by life that led the original owner to choose to give up on living a second life.
To be honest, in Song Lan's eyes, the original owner of this body was really too delicate.
They look exactly the same, but if the original owner and she stood together, they would look like two completely different people.
The original owner's fragility was not only reflected in her appearance, but also emanated from her very bones.
Well, "delicate" would be a more accurate description!
The next day.
Qin Boyan and his three siblings got up early in the morning and went out of the living room. They saw Song Lan wielding a stick in the yard with great skill and were all dumbfounded.
After a long pause, Qin Xiaowu blinked his bright black eyes and asked Qin Boyan incredulously, "Second...Second Brother, is this Sister-in-law?"
