"Can you give me a drink of water?" Meidie begged her, she was so thirsty that she was smoking.

The woman squatted down and looked at Meidie's face in the moonlight. She couldn't help but say, "She's so beautiful! This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful woman."

Meidie didn't have the energy to say much, just said the word "water".

The woman was very strong. She picked up Meidie horizontally and walked into the house. She put her on the couch, savoring her appearance carefully. She couldn't help but stroke her cheek with her fingers and said, "What a beautiful woman." Then she turned around to get some water.

Meidie felt a porcelain bowl approaching her mouth and opened her eyes slightly. It would have been fine if she hadn't looked at it, but when she did, she was frightened and asked, "Who are you?"

"What are you doing? Did I scare you to death?" The woman snorted, feeling very unhappy.

This woman was extremely ugly, with something on her face, and the bumps on her face looked very creepy, which naturally frightened Mei Die to the point of losing all her soul. And when she was angry, she was even more frightening, with her face twisted like a pile of mud. She asked in a very bad tone: "Hey, do you want some water or not?"

"Yes. I'm very thirsty." Meidie had no choice, she wanted to survive, so she tried to ignore her appearance.

The woman fed Meidie two sips of warm water, then slowly helped her lie down, and then sat down at the table, looking at her again and asking, "Who are you and why are you here?"

"I went to see a friend." Meidie didn't intend to tell her the truth.

"I don't think you are looking for a friend, but rather you are on the run." The man sneered.

Meidie's heart trembled, and she said, "I'm just weak, you don't have to think too much about it."

"I guess this counts as saving you," the man asked.

Mei Die naturally understood the principle of repaying a favor, and she said, "Of course, I will repay you in the future, as long as I find my friend."

The woman came over to the couch again, staring at Meidie's face, and held her in her hands, saying, "I really like your face, it's so beautiful, I wish you could have it."

"I'm afraid that won't work." Meidie said as she backed away, but was pulled back by the woman, who asked, "Then how are you going to repay me?"

"I will always give it to you. I will not go back on my word." Meidie felt like she had fallen into an ominous place.

"I have seen many people, even the fairy over there, but she is not as beautiful as you. She can't compare to your face at all. At least that's what I think." The woman praised her generously and said, "I really like you."

These words made Meidie angry and she started coughing uncontrollably.

The woman tried to pat her body very gently, but found that she couldn't touch her body. She jumped up in fear and said, "Are you a human or a ghost? Why is there nothing when I pat your back?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a ghost, I'm just sick." Meidie comforted her and signaled her not to panic.

"What kind of disease can cause this?" The woman's eyes were filled with fear, and she asked cautiously, "Are you missing a piece of your soul?"

"You" Meidie was very scared. She didn't want to tell anyone her true situation to avoid unnecessary harm.

The woman began to get excited and said, "Then you won't live long. You will die soon."

"What do you mean?"

"I won't hurt you. I will just wait here for you to die. Then I will occupy your face and bury you properly. I will treat you as my relative. This won't be considered bullying you." The woman said as a matter of course, and then she moved a chair and sat down beside the couch, as if waiting for Meidie to die.

"I won't die, An Yan will come to save me." Mei Die said this, but she was afraid in her heart and couldn't help crying. "Everyone will die, just let it go." The woman said it calmly, but it was also gentle, and Mei Die couldn't help but feel sorry for her.

Meidie was very unconvinced and said, "If you didn't die, you would naturally be able to let it go."

"I'm the only one at home," the woman replied.

"I don't want to die. I want to hold on. I can't die." Meidie began to feel sad.

"Oh, your condition is very difficult to cure, unless your soul is returned to you. But since your soul has been taken away by someone, how can it be returned to you? You will die sooner or later." The woman said lightly, she understood the reason.

Meidie leaned on the couch and shed tears, feeling grief and indignation. Suddenly, she saw many fireflies floating outside the window, looking very beautiful. She said, "What are those? They are so beautiful."

The woman also looked out the window and said, "Hey, when did fireflies appear here? There were never any before."

Mei Die became alert because of her words. She knew An Yan was very smart and always had some interesting little tricks, so she said, "Since I'm about to die, can you catch some for me?"

"That's easy. Just wait." The woman said as she stood up and opened the door. She caught a lot of fireflies outside and hid them in her hands. Then she came back into the house, put them in front of Meidie and said, "Come, let me show you." After that, she slowly opened her hands, and saw the fireflies slowly floating in the air.

Meidie reached out and grabbed one, only to see the firefly turn into a sharp arrow in the blink of an eye and pierce through the roof.

The woman said, "What is this thing? It can actually change." After saying that, she reached out and grabbed one, but there was nothing in it. She couldn't help feeling disappointed.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Meidie naturally understood this. A feeling of grievance and anger surged in her heart, and she couldn't help but cry again.

An Yan on the other end received the signal and said, "Come back, there is news about Mei Die."

"Where is she?" Yan Qingqiu asked.

"Just follow me. It's not far away. Just go through the woods." After saying that, An Yan led the way into the woods.

"Be careful, An Yan." Li Rongsen signaled An Yan not to walk too fast.

It was dark in the woods and it was hard to see clearly even in the moonlight. Li Rongsen was afraid that An Yan would fall or get hurt, which made Yan Qingqiu secretly happy, thinking that Li Rongsen would be back soon.

An Yan walked in a hurry and did not follow the usual route. She pulled out weeds along the way.

After a while, I saw a thatched house in front of me, like a lighthouse, standing independently from the world.

An Yan pointed to that location and said, "That's right, Meidie is right there."

"Let me see your hand." Li Rongsen grabbed An Yan's hand and looked at it. He felt relieved when he did not find any wound.

"Let's go, let's go over there." Yan Qingqiu said as he walked ahead of An Yan.

The next step was not difficult to walk on, but the narrow path was only wide enough for one person to walk on, so three people walked forward and backward, with Yan Qingqiu in front, Li Rongsen behind, and An Yan walking in the middle of them. Finally, they passed a vegetable field and walked into the yard.

The door of the thatched hut was open, so An Yan walked in easily. She looked around and saw Meidie lying on the couch. She immediately strode forward to see her and said, "Finally found you."

"An Yan." Mei Die was extremely excited, which caused her to cough and gasp.

"Don't worry, I'm here." An Yan comforted her and asked, "What's going on?"

Meidie was happy and sad. She wanted to speak but couldn't help crying. She felt very aggrieved.
