Chapter 3

“Song Ruan, you can’t say that about Brother Jianguo.” Chen Hongying was so upset by what she said, “Brother Jianguo is with me because you are not a good enough partner.”

It was like a knife poking at the butt, it really opened my eyes.

Chen Hongying is usually quiet, but I didn’t expect her to be so good at making up stories.

Song Ruan ignored her and turned her head: “Zhao Jianguo, since you are messing around, let’s break up.”

Then you two lock it up.

Zhao Jianguo, who was expecting the two women to fight over him, suddenly panicked and hurried forward.

“Don’t, Song Ruan, I still love you.”

It’s okay to play with Chen Hongying, but it’s not worth it to break up with Song Ruan because of her. After all, Song Ruan’s family background is better than Chen Hongying’s, and she is also much prettier than Chen Hongying.

Seeing Zhao Jianguo approaching, the scene of being beaten in the dream came to her mind again. Song Ruan quickly hid behind her second brother and shouted, “Get out of here! It’s impossible for us to do this. If you keep pestering me, I will tell the village chief and everyone at the educated youth site.”

After saying that, Song Ruan tugged at the corner of Song Wu’s clothes and said, “Second brother, let’s go home.”

“Well, okay, let’s go home.”

Song Wu was very happy that his sister could think clearly and break up with Zhao Jianguo.

“Sister, go to your room and rest first. I’ll call you when the meal is ready.”

After saying this, without waiting for Song Ruan’s reaction, Song Wu quickly ran into the kitchen.

All the members of the Song family were working in the fields to earn work points. Originally, Song Wu was sent back to cook, but he had just been caught cheating and had wasted time. If he didn’t hurry up, it would be too late.

Song Ruan entered the room, closed the door, sat on the bed, and quickly took out the jade pendant from her chest.

Ever since she woke up from the dream, the jade pendant on her chest has been warm. She couldn’t take it out to check it just now because she was outside.

It felt warm to the touch, but there was no change on the surface of the jade pendant.

Is there something inside the jade pendant?

As soon as this thought came into Song Ruan’s mind, her vision went dark the next second. When she came to her senses, she found herself in an unfamiliar place.

This place seemed like a different space. In front of her was a dilapidated wooden house. On the left side of the house was a large piece of black soil, and on the right side was a large stone rockery.

In the distance is a grassland, further away is a hill with many trees on it, and further away is a vast expanse of white.

Song Ruan tried, but couldn’t walk through the white edge. She didn’t hesitate and walked into the dilapidated wooden house.

The wooden house was not big, about the size of two of her rooms. There was a small wooden bed by the window and a multi-layered wooden rack on the other side.

There was only a booklet and a few empty bottles lying in a mess on the wooden shelf, which showed that the things on it had been taken away in a hurry.

Song Ruan picked up the booklet and flipped through it. There were several pill recipes written inside.

Huh?

Song Ruan’s toes seemed to touch something. She squatted down and touched it, and unexpectedly took out a small bottle from under the wooden shelf. The words “Resurrection Pill” were written on the bottle. She opened it and found that there were three pills inside.

She quickly flipped through the booklet again. Some of the words in it were different from those of this era, but the general meaning could still be guessed. The effect of this resurrection pill should be to save the life of a dying person.

Song Ruan stared: “What a good thing!”

Song Ruan put the booklet and the small bottle back on the wooden shelf and walked out.

After coming out, she walked towards the rockery next to her.

When I got closer, I found that this rockery was not made of stone, but a huge piece of jade!

Light white jade!

When I walked closer, I found that liquid was oozing out from the top of the jade, dripping down drop by drop, forming a small pool of water underneath.

Song Ruan walked to the edge of the spring, squatted down, and wanted to take a closer look at what was special about the water seeping out of the jade.

But he didn’t expect his feet to slip and he fell in with a splash.

“Cough… cough…”

Song Ruan stood up in the Yuquan water. The water was probably only up to her hips, but she slipped without warning and choked accidentally, so she drank a few sips of water.

Is there anything wrong with this water?

Song Ruan thought belatedly.

As soon as this thought came to her mind, Song Ruan felt a heat radiating from the inside out of her body.

Just when she was worried that something might be wrong with her body, the heat in her body disappeared, and instead, she felt relaxed all over.

After a while, her skin was covered with a layer of black mud.

“Hmm, it stinks.”

Ye Wu quickly washed off the smelly mud on her body in the spring water.

After washing, Song Ruan looked at her skin and was shocked. Her skin became so tender, white, and incomparable!

She had been fair-skinned since she was a child, but it was different now. Her fair skin was tender and even her pores were invisible, as if she had been coated with a layer of filter.

Damn! This Yuquan water is so good, and she just rubbed out so much black mud from it. Could it be that she had contaminated it?

She looked down and found that the mud had disappeared, as if it had been absorbed by the jade underneath, and there was only clear water inside.

“Little sister, little sister.”

The voice of the second brother!

How should she get out? Song Ruan panicked.

When she came in, it seemed like she was thinking about what was inside the jade?

“Get out.” Song Ruan muttered to herself.

The next second, she appeared in the room again, still sitting in the same position as before.

“Little sister, are you okay? If you don’t say anything, I’m going to break in.” Seeing that there was no response from him, Song Wu outside the door sounded a little anxious.

“Second brother, I’m here.” Song Ruan quickly changed into dry clothes, then ran to pull the latch on the door and opened it.

Seeing her open the door, Song Wu breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned again: “Why didn’t you hear me after calling you for so long? I was so scared, I thought…”

“I just fell asleep.” Song Ruan tilted his head and smiled at his second brother, “By the way, second brother, how long did I sleep just now?”

“Uh… about half an hour.”

More than half an hour?

It seems that the flow of time in the small world is almost the same as outside. She should have been in there for more than half an hour.

“Little sister.” Song Wu looked at his sister from left to right, “Why do I feel like you’ve become prettier?”

She seemed to be whiter, and her facial features seemed to have changed and yet remained the same. Anyway, she was more beautiful than before, and her big round eyes were so bright that they seemed to contain crystals.

“Ah, ah?” Song Ruan was panicked. “No, no way. Isn’t your sister always so pretty?”

Song Ruan pushed her second brother and quickly changed the subject: “Go and cook, wait for mom and dad to come back.”

Song Wu was helpless: “I’ve prepared the meal, okay.”

Otherwise, what had he been busying around in there for over half an hour?
