It doesn't matter if your souls are scattered, as long as you die.

After walking for a few more days, we could no longer see the mountains, only some small hills.

It must have meant that they left one province and entered another.

She didn't bother to find out where she was; it didn't matter where she was, as long as she could find the person she was looking for.

After walking along the hills for about an hour, I came across a village.

With a sweep of his mental energy, he saw people everywhere in the field, some turning the soil, others working in the furrows.

There were many people on the mountain, mostly women and children, all carrying baskets and digging for wild vegetables.

Withdrawing his spiritual power, he took out the blood droplet, which pointed him towards the village. He put away the blood droplet and headed towards the village.

Yun Li was dressed well, and when she entered the village, people would see her and ask curiously, "Little one, which family are you related to?"

Yun Li didn't answer, but just walked away with her head down in a daze.

No one minded; they just assumed she was shy.

If you walk a little further away, you can still hear people discussing, "I wonder which company this is from."

"They shouldn't be from our village. I haven't heard of any relatives coming over."

"That's from the next village."

"This is quite a long journey; my family must be worried."

"How about... we take it back, just in case it gets lost?" one person said hesitantly.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone scolded, "Don't meddle. The people in the next village are just like bandits. You might not get any thanks in return, but instead be falsely accused of being kidnapped children and coming to us for benefits."

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement; the neighboring village was certainly no pushover.

It's best to mind your own business.

Yun Li was almost out of the village. After observing for a while, she took out a blood droplet, which guided her to continue forward.

It seems that the person with the bloodline of Jiazigou is not in this village.

She continued walking, and as she walked, a girl with two braids came from ahead.

The girl was very happy, skipping and jumping all the way.

Yun Li stared at her intently, and the girl noticed his gaze.

She stopped in front of Yun Li, looked him over carefully, and confirmed that she did not recognize him.

"Hi, kid, whose family are you from?"

Yun Li was still staring at her, his gaze seemingly directed at the girl, yet also seemingly looking through her at others.

The girl felt a chill run down her spine and instinctively took a few steps back.

"You've usurped my place!"

Yun Li suddenly spoke, startling the girl, and the color drained from her face instantly.

After a brief moment of panic, she stammered, "You, you're talking nonsense, what nonsense are you spouting?"

Yun Li's eyes never left her; his dark gaze, devoid of any emotion and even bordering on cold, terrified the girl, who fled in panic.

I accidentally fell into the ditch.

The girl struggled to get up, but then a pair of children's feet came into view, which startled her so much that she backed away on her hips.

The ditch was filled with water and mud, and the once bright and beautiful girl was now in a sorry state, covered in mud.

"She's screaming, begging you to give her back her body."

Upon hearing this, the girl suddenly became angry, and this anger overwhelmed her fear. She stood up abruptly and shouted at Yun Li, "I won't pay it back! I won't let her harm Comrade Gu!"

Yun Li remained silent, his eyes fixed on the soul deep within the girl's body.

She was kneeling before her, begging her to help her reclaim her body; she wanted revenge.

Filled with resentment, he explained why he had harmed that person named Comrade Gu.

Her family were "red capitalists," and they donated almost all of their assets. They shouldn't have been investigated, but they were, because someone reported them.

Her family spent a lot of money and connections to send her here as an educated youth.

She was accompanied by her childhood sweetheart, Gu Sen.

She thought he truly loved her, which was why he gave up his comfortable life in Kyoto to come here as an educated youth, toiling in the fields.

Who would have thought that, due to an unexpected turn of events, she would learn that the person who reported her family was him?

She also knew that his accompanying her to the countryside was not out of love for her, but because they thought her family had hidden valuables and wanted to dig them out of her.

She hates it!

They plotted revenge, intending to leave him here forever.

But for some reason, before I could even make a move, my body was taken over.

"Please, help me get my body back."

She kept kowtowing.

The girl had already run far away. Yun Li withdrew his spiritual power and slowly followed the path she had taken.

She was thinking about a problem.

Why do I always encounter people and things that seem to have a mystical or superstitious element?

What exactly is going on in this world?

She couldn't help but wonder if she had truly returned to her first life?

Unknowingly, he followed the girl to the outside of her courtyard. He scanned the area with his spiritual power and found two large rooms, a kitchen, and an outhouse.

Each room has multiple beds.

Judging from the clothes and belongings, one room was occupied by a male and the other by a female.

The girl hadn't changed her clothes yet and was huddled in a corner of the room, trembling.

He kept muttering, "What to do, what to do?"

Tears streamed down his face, and finally, as if he had made up his mind, his expression became firm, giving off a sense of righteous indignation as he faced death.

"You idiot, you idiot, I won't allow it!"

The roar came from the soul within the girl's body.

The girl opened the door and saw Yun Li standing there. She unconsciously took a step back.

Yun Li looked at the soul inside her body, and that soul also saw her.

"Please, please help me. She's going to tell Gu Sen that I'm going to kill him."

Yun Li didn't agree, but instead turned her gaze to the girl, "Why are you helping that Gu Sen?"

"Naturally, it's because he's a good person."

The girl didn't think much about how she knew she was going to help Comrade Gu, and blurted out that she would defend her, her face turning red as she spoke.

"Is he a good person, or do you just like him and therefore think he's a good person?"

The girl blushed even more, stiffened her neck, and said, "I like him because he's a good person."

"He reported someone who harmed others; is he a good person?"

"He didn't report it; he was framed."

The girl was no longer afraid of Yun Li; instead, she became arrogant and domineering.

Yun Li was unaware of the truth, and with the two of them giving conflicting accounts, she was unable to distinguish between them.

The spirit cried out, "It was him who reported it! I heard it clearly!"

Yun Li: "Who told you that?"

"I visited his childhood friend last time."

Yun Li looked at the girl, and was about to speak when the girl interrupted him indignantly.

"You idiot, you've been fooled. That person said that on purpose to make you hate Gu Sen."

In truth, the girl did not hear the soul's words; she simply knew everything.

"No, no, you're the one who's been fooled!" The original soul roared angrily, but the girl couldn't hear it; only Yun Li could.

This matter was a bit complicated. Yun Li was annoyed and didn't want to deal with it, so she turned around and left.

As they turned around, another person with unusual characteristics appeared.

"Brother Gu!" The girl was overjoyed to see the newcomer and ran towards him, brushing past Yun Li.
