After Qin Xue finished dressing and washing her clothes, she went back to her room and got under the covers.

Thinking about the place she had gone to during the bath, could she enter it again?

Qin Xue opened her clothes and looked at the mark, touching it with her hand.

When she came out earlier, she touched the mark and said she wanted to leave. Would it work if she touched it and said she wanted to go in? She put the thought into action:

“I want to go in.” Haha, she really entered.

“Is anyone here?” Qin Xue walked and looked around, but still no one. Why was it so strange?

Qin Xue came to the bamboo house again and knocked on the door, but still no one. She walked to the well and saw that the water had reached the edge of the well.

...
The well’s edge was only a hand’s length higher than the ground, so she could lean over and drink the water, which looked quite clear.

Qin Xue scooped up a handful of the warm water. This water should be drinkable, right?

Qin Xue lowered her head to drink the water. It was very refreshing and sweet. Qin Xue drank several mouthfuls and didn’t feel anything unusual.

Qin Xue sat on the stone steps in front of the bamboo house, looking at the peach blossom forest in front of her. What kind of place was this?

Why was there no one here? Since she could enter, there must be some special significance.

But she didn’t know anything about this place and no one had come to explain the situation. Why had she come here?

Qin Xue didn’t understand or know anything about it. Her calming heart became even more bewildered because of this place.

Not knowing how long she had been sitting, Qin Xue finally got up to leave and go to sleep.

Qin Xue turned off the light and covered herself with the quilt before going to sleep. In her dream, she returned to that space.

This time she wasn’t alone. Qin Xue looked at the little fox in front of her, with snow-white fur and a big, long tail like a fan. It was so cute.

“Master, you’re here. I am Xue Ling, and I am very happy to meet you.” The little fox squeaked.

“Wow, you can talk! You’re so cute. Can I touch you?” Qin Xue had always liked fluffy animals since she was a child.

However, she didn’t like cleaning up after animals, such as their feces, so she had never kept a pet. Now seeing this cute little creature, she wanted to touch it.

“Of course! Master, I am your pet.” Xue Ling blinked her big eyes and said to Qin Xue.

Getting a satisfactory answer, Qin Xue picked up Xue Ling. Holding Xue Ling with one hand, she touched Xue Ling’s head with the other: “Xue Ling, you call me master, and you say you’re my pet, but what’s going on?”

“Master, it’s because you opened this space, and I woke up because of you. That’s why you’re my master,” Xue Ling looked at Qin Xue as she answered.

“Then can you tell me how I opened this space and how I got here?” What Qin Xue wanted to know most was why she was here.

“Of course! I brought you here. Isn’t Xue Ling great?” Xue Ling waited for Qin Xue’s praise.

“You brought me here, but why?”

“It’s because, Master, you died in a car accident. Your blood just happened to stain your jade pendant, and it opened this space, so I brought you here.

I’m sorry, Master, I had just woken up and didn’t have time to select a suitable body for you.

It just so happened that the person in this body had died, but the child in her womb was still alive, so I sent you into this body.

This way, it not only saved the child’s life but also offset your defiance of nature by surviving.” Xue Ling said in a low voice, her head down, barely audible.

“So, you mean that because I died in the modern world, it just happened to wake you up, so you took my soul away.

Wanting me to continue living would be defying fate and would bring heavenly punishment.

But this Qin Xue had died, yet her child was not supposed to die.

So now I want to live but will face heavenly punishment, while her child is doomed to die because of Qin Xue’s death.

Now you’ve sent me into this body as a way of balancing the good and bad, right?” Qin Xue sorted out Xue Ling’s words.
