"Miss, I'm not crying for you. I'm feeling sad for myself, trapped in Red String of Fate for 18 years. I finally had hope, but who would have thought that it would turn into a wisp of smoke and disappear in less than a year. It really makes me sad! "
The more he thought about this tragic ending, the more Bu Li cried. Before, he wanted to cry, but he had no tears. Now that he had a human body, he really needed to cry.
"Ah?" I'm really sorry, it's me who harmed you, but crying like this isn't the only way, I believe that the heavens never forsake us, the three of us will definitely find a way to save you! "
As the number of people dying together increased, Zhao Xiaoxue felt the pressure.
"The way to save them?"
Now that the facts were right in front of him, Bu Li knew that it would be useless to blame himself. Now that it was related to his own life, he began to seriously consider it.
"Un, I do have a solution, but it's so difficult!"
When he thought of the solution, Bu Li looked toward the not too distant Southern King. When he saw the latter's cold expression, he did not have much hope.
"Alright, no matter how difficult it is, we still have to give it a try!" What if a level six Yuan Doctor is able to help us out, don't you think so? "
He wouldn't admit defeat without trying. Besides, if the three of them were so passive, even if there was a real chance, they might miss it. Therefore, Zhao Xiaoxue wanted to keep herself active, for herself, and for the other two.
"Level 6 Yuan Doctor! How could it appear so easily? In the past thousand years, only one has appeared! "
When he mentioned the only level six physician, Bu Li was depressed as well.
"One in a thousand years!" Then where is he now? We can think of a way to find him. The doctors are always merciful, maybe he really will help us! "
Zhao Xiaoxue always thought of the positive side.
"She can't help us because she's no longer in this world!"
Zhao Xiaoxue and Chu Yufeng couldn't help but look at each other in dismay when they saw Bu Li's painful and sorrowful expression. They could tell that Bu Li knew about the sixth level doctor. However, since he was already dead, they couldn't ask any further.
"Alright, let's not get discouraged. Since it has appeared before, it means that it will appear in the future. Maybe I will be the next hope?"
Zhao Xiaoxue would never give up.
"You … "Miss, you …"
This person who had followed her for 18 years was getting harder and harder to understand. His young master was a confident person, but these years, he had become more and more ladylike and his personality had become weaker. Perhaps it was because he couldn't remember anything.
But now, this girl had regained her confidence. Would she change back in the future?
"Why are you looking at me like that? Do you not believe me?" Just you wait. I'll only tell you how capable I am after I figure out what happened to the doctor! "
Zhao Xiaoxue's last sentence was filled with energy, but after carefully considering the meaning behind her words, everyone couldn't help but smile. She didn't even understand what an elementalist was, yet she was still delusional enough to think of becoming a level 6 elementalist. This was simply wishful thinking.
Zhao Xiaoxue didn't care whether the person in front of her believed it or not, because she had already decided to start by learning from the books. Although she was currently illiterate, there were a lot of people who could read here.
When she reached the bookshelf, she realized that it was quite tall and that she wasn't considered short. However, she was still a bit lacking in standing on tiptoe and stretching her arms. After a few tries, Zhao Xiaoxue found that she could only find other ways.
Although she could get a book by using a chair, when she turned around and saw Bu Li still sitting on the floor in a daze, she immediately frowned and said,
"You're a man, why are you still sitting on the floor? Quick, help me retrieve the book!"
Hearing Zhao Xiaoxue's words, Bu Li did not move very quickly. He simply frowned and started to shake his head for no reason. He even stretched out two fingers and pinched his ear.
"What are you doing?" Isn't it just to ask for your help that you need it to be so exaggerated? "
Zhao Xiaoxue felt that saying that she had been with her soul fragment for eighteen years was unreliable. She clearly looked like an adult, but her actions were like that of a child. It was very worrisome.
Since she couldn't command Bu Li, Zhao Xiaoxue didn't want Chu Yufeng to do anything. After all, Chu Yufeng had just recovered from his severe illness, so she decided to move the bench over herself.
"Yeah, there are three people outside looking for the Southern King, but they are so stupid, to actually be lost in the forest garden! You're really even stupider than me! "
When Bu Li realized that someone was even stupider than he was, he suddenly stopped feeling sad and the three of them said something very interesting. Bu Li stood up as he listened.
"What are you talking about? Who was looking for the Southern King outside? There's no sound at all from outside! "
Zhao Xiaoxue finally put down her stool with great difficulty and stopped her actions to listen carefully. She really didn't notice that there were people outside, let alone three people.
"Why is there no sound? Listen, the three of them are still talking. The young lady couldn't hear it clearly, but you can definitely hear how powerful your spiritual sense is! "
Speaking of powerful divine intents, Bu Li was very envious of this Southern King. As a human, having such powerful divine intents was a miracle.
"There are indeed guests outside!"
Chu Yufeng finally spoke, and Zhao Xiaoxue no longer doubted him. Thinking of the guest, Zhao Xiaoxue's movements became quicker, but who was this person?
"Alright, I'll first bring these books back to my room to study them. When you're free, I'll come find you …"
Zhao Xiaoxue picked up the books as she spoke. Originally, these books looked very unremarkable, so they were probably not very heavy. However, when she picked them up, she found them to be like a pile of heavy stones.
"Be careful!"
Zhao Xiaoxue almost fell to the ground. Luckily, Chu Yufeng had stepped forward in time and removed the heavy book with one hand while holding onto the person with the other. After she had regained her balance, Chu Yufeng slowly placed the book on the table across them and said gently:
"If you wish to browse through books, that's fine too!"
Hearing the man's words, Zhao Xiaoxue slightly nodded and said,
"What you said makes a lot of sense. I also want to study here, but didn't you just say that someone was looking for you?" I'll come find you when you're done with your work. When that time comes, you have to teach me how to read. To be honest, I really don't want to be illiterate! "
Illiteracy was simply an insult to Zhao Xiaoxue's IQ.
"Alright!"
Chu Yufeng narrowed his eyes at the mention of visitors. Perhaps women really were inhospitable these days.
"Since this book is so heavy, I'll take a copy first!"
Zhao Xiaoxue was not greedy. In any case, there was still a lot of time and she could not read. Since Chu Yufeng was busy, there was nothing for her to do. Thinking of this, Zhao Xiaoxue waved at Bu Li and said,
"Bu Li, let's go read some books and find a way to save him!"
"Alright!"
This time, Bu Li was exceptionally obedient and quickly followed.
"Lady, let me take this book!"
This ability of Bu Li's made Zhao Xiaoxue admire him greatly. She could not help but praise,
"Bu Li is really obedient!"
Chu Yufeng had a strange expression on his face as he watched the two figures slowly walk away. If Wu Lengyin recovered his spirit and found out that a woman had ordered him around in front of a child, how would he feel?
"Eh?" There's really no one outside. Bu Li, where is the customer you were talking about? "
Just as they walked out of the door, other than the servants guarding the door, Zhao Xiaoxue did not see anyone else, let alone three people in total.
"There really is someone looking for the Southern King. It's over there, they …" Sigh! They really are stupid, went to the wrong place, and separated from each other! "
Speaking of those idiots, Bu Li could not help but shake his head.
"Ah?" Since the guests are guests, why don't we help them? "
Zhao Xiaoxue instructed the servant guarding the door, saying that there was someone looking for the Southern King and asking him to bring him over while she and Bu Li split up.
With the Southern Princess leading the way, the servants had no choice but to obey. On the very first day that the Southern Princess entered the house, the Southern King had ordered her to carry out all her orders. Thus, without asking further, the servants ran in the direction pointed out by her.
"You go this way, I'll go that way!"
Other than the servants guarding the door, Zhao Xiaoxue also split up.
The three of them moved out separately, and Zhao Xiaoxue was quite active. She wholeheartedly wanted to help the guests, but after searching for a long time, she still couldn't find a single customer.
Moreover, not only did she not see the customer, but she also saw the familiar surroundings. Zhao Xiaoxue instantly lost her bearings.
"Crap, which direction is Lin Xuan Pavilion located in?"
Even if he found a customer later, he wouldn't be able to help point the way, and would get lost along with him.
"Creak!"
Just as she was at a loss, she heard the sound of footsteps from behind her. She quickly turned her head and saw a servant dressed in blue, holding a plate of snacks, hurriedly walking over.
"Wait, are you going to send this snack to the Southern King?"
Zhao Xiaoxue suddenly stopped him. The servant looked at him carefully and saw that he was actually a beautiful lady. She was dressed in a very awkward manner, and he was not wearing any shoes. It was hard to guess the identity of this lady.
"Miss, this is …"
Seeing the doubt in her opponent's eyes, Zhao Xiaoxue's face was also full of embarrassment. Although she wasn't wearing shoes, the stockings in this world were really thick. Stepping on the stone road didn't hurt, so she didn't pay attention to it.
"Don't worry, I'm also someone from the manor, and I just came out from the Southern King's side. I was in a bit of a hurry to leave, so …" Since you are giving this snack to the Southern King, why don't we go together? "
Zhao Xiaoxue was lost, so she had to get familiar with it again.
"Alright, young lady, please enter first!"
Although the person did not know the lady's identity, he was very polite to her.
"It's alright, you can leave first!"
Zhao Xiaoxue was already lost, how could she go first?
"Miss is someone close to the Southern King. This servant will not dare to go against the rules, otherwise, if His Highness the Southern King blames anyone, his head will fall off!"
"Ah?" "Alright then!"
The other party must have guessed her identity. The etiquette in this world was too different, so Zhao Xiaoxue didn't want to make things difficult for them.
However, if she went down the wrong path, the people behind her would definitely warn her. Thinking of this, Zhao Xiaoxue felt more at ease, and began to confidently walk in front.
The person behind him actually knew how to be polite. He respectfully and reverently walked behind them without making a sound. The Southern King's Manor was truly harsh on their people.
"Hey, stop right there!"
After walking a distance, just as Zhao Xiaoxue was about to scout out a path, she didn't expect someone nearby to shout at her.
He stopped and raised his head. It was another servant who was carrying a tray. However, there was no longer dim sum on the tray. Instead, there was a teapot.
"You …"
"You are also sending it to the Southern King, right? It just so happens that this young lady is someone from the Southern King's side. If she walks in front, we'll walk in the back! "
Just as the person was about to speak, the servant who had been silently following behind Zhao Xiaoxue suddenly opened his mouth. After speaking briefly, his long face revealed a flattering smile:
"So it's a lady. This servant has truly offended you just now!" Please forgive me, miss! "
Originally, Zhao Xiaoxue was not angry, but now that the other side had admitted their mistake first, Zhao Xiaoxue was at a loss for what to do.
"You didn't do anything wrong. Since you're going to find the Southern King, then let's go together!"
Hearing Zhao Xiaoxue's words, the two men in front hurriedly nodded.
"And this servant, this servant will also send something to His Highness the Southern King!"
Just as Zhao Xiaoxue finished speaking, another person came forward. Although the other party was not carrying a tray, he was holding a jar of wine in his hand.
"This Southern King has just recovered from a severe illness. I didn't expect that he would be so interested! Is this all meant to entertain guests? "
Hearing the young lady's mutterings, the three servants did not reply, only lowering their heads in silence.
"Alright, then let's go together. Who knows, the Southern King's guests might also come!"
As Zhao Xiaoxue spoke, she turned around, but her last sentence caused the three servants behind her to look at each other in dismay with a puzzled expression.
Time passed by bit by bit. Previously, Zhao Xiaoxue felt that these tights were not bad and didn't feel any pain on the stone road. But as time passed, this disadvantage began to slowly appear.
"Aiya, my feet are hurting! "Why aren't you here yet?"
Zhao Xiaoxue was somewhat wronged as she stopped at the side of the road to rub her feet. Then, she turned around and asked the three people behind her while blinking her eyes, hoping to get an answer from them.
"Miss, we should be asking you that. Why haven't you arrived yet?"
The three of them were impatient. Before they met this girl, they had already been walking in circles for a long time. However, after meeting this girl, they didn't think they would still be walking in circles.
"Wait, how can you ask me? You guys are definitely more familiar with the environment here than I am. Aren't you servants of the Southern King's Manor? "
Hearing this, the three people behind her were dumbfounded. They looked at the girl in front of them, and their eyes were no longer friendly.
"So it turns out that you are not someone from the Southern King's Manor either!" "Tell me, who sent you?"
"You guys aren't servants of the Southern King's Estate?"
Zhao Xiaoxue felt that her brain wasn't enough. Why did the three people that were so respectful just now suddenly become so fierce? From what they said, it seemed that they weren't even from the Southern King Manor, so why were they dressed like that?
"Humph, it's the same for you. You must be here for the Southern King. But let me tell you, the Southern King is ours. Don't even think about taking it away!"
Although the other party looked pretty good, this was not the time to show tender affection for the fairer sex. If the three of them did not complete the mission smoothly, they would not be able to return.
