Chapter 1: Accidental Crossing
The night sky was as dark as ink, and only three or two points of starlight shone faintly like a lighthouse in the vast sea, depressing, extremely depressing. Suddenly, a meteor with a bewitching blue light pierced the sky, and fell in the northeast direction in only three or two seconds, as if a pair of powerful giant hands had torn a huge hole in the dome in an instant, but it healed instantly, and finally silently. This sudden qiē may not have attracted much attention, but it was caught in the eyes of a gray-robed old Taoist standing on the top of a high mountain, his eyes were fixed on the place where the meteor fell, his eyes were like torches, if you looked closely, you could even find that his skinny body was trembling slightly, as if excited.
A miracle will happen from heaven!
The head was as groggy as if it had been smashed with a hammer, Jiang Qingtian struggled to wake up from the coma, but as soon as he opened his eyes, he was stunned by the pale pink gauze tent that greeted him, and he thought that he was still asleep, so he hurriedly closed his eyes and opened them violently. Wrong! It's not a dream, where is she lying? Jiang Qingtian struggled to lift the light embroidered silk quilt covering his body, reluctantly stood up on the edge of the sandalwood bed, looked around, and carefully looked at the layout and furnishings in the room. Damn, my head is still groggy.
The furniture in the huge room is made of fine wood, and a faint smell of wood fills the air. Facing the door, there was a carved lacquered wood round table, polished brightly, and there was only a set of blue and white porcelain tea sets on the table that were so delicate that no flaws could be found. There is a classical screen on the right side of the table, which obviously divides the room into two independent but connected spaces, Jiang Qingtian staggered to the inside, but it was a study. The tall bookshelves are neatly filled with books of all kinds, and on the desk is a beautifully made pen holder with a few washed brushes, which look like they have not been used for several days, and have dried and hardened. There was a neatly placed rice paper next to the desk, Jiang Qingtian curiously unfolded the paper, and the handsome font jumped into her eyes, which was really pleasing to the eye, but she had no intention of appreciating it.
"Squeak", the door was pushed open from the outside, and the footsteps of "kick, kick, kick" sounded.
Jiang Qingtian was disturbed by the sound of the door opening, her weak body leaned on the desk, and she looked at the sound with her head, only to see a girl about twelve or thirteen years old holding a bouquet of beautiful peonies and walking straight towards the dresser. Jiang Qingtian looked at the girl with wide eyes, not surprised by her intrusion, but frightened by her dress.
The girl who entered the door wore a wide-sleeved long skirt embroidered with red plums on a white background, her black hair was pulled into a smooth crescent bun, and a silver step was inserted on it, and she swayed back and forth when she walked. I saw that the girl carefully inserted the peonies in her hand into the white porcelain vase on the dresser one by one, nodded with satisfaction before turning around and walking towards the sandalwood bed, but before she reached the bed, she screamed "ah", and then circled around the room like a headless fly, as if looking for something.
The sound of hurried footsteps echoed throughout the room, and finally the anxious girl walked inside, the moment she saw Jiang Qingtian, it was like seeing the God of Wealth, the horror on her face was instantly replaced by surprise, and the girl covered her mouth and screamed happily: "Miss, you are finally awake!" ”
Jiang Qingtian watched the girl's every move in surprise from beginning to end, and after hearing this, his mouth couldn't close in shock, and his body staggered and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately he held on to the desk on the side in time. What's going on! Did she accidentally break into the filming set of a TV series? This is Hengdian Film and Television City? But why didn't she have any memories of it?
Seeing that Jiang Qingtian didn't answer herself, the girl was just awake from her coma, and her body was weak and didn't want to speak, so she didn't ask anything, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her sit down. "Why doesn't the young lady get out of bed and put on a dress? The body is just right, what if it freezes to death? The girl hurriedly turned around and found a pale pink cloak from the wardrobe and thoughtfully put it on for Jiang Qingtian, "I'm going to tell the old lady that she woke up with the good news!" Then he turned and ran towards the door.
Jiang Qingtian hurriedly grabbed the girl's hand: "You wait, I'll ask you a few questions first." ”
The girl stood up and looked at Jiang Qingtian, her face was full of joy, and even her voice was cheerful, "Miss can ask whatever she wants, the slave will definitely know everything!" ”
Jiang Qingtian was not ambiguous, and asked directly, "What's your name?" ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, and replied honestly: "The slave maid is Dongmei, why doesn't the young lady remember the slave maid." ”
Jiang Qingtian's face turned a little pale, and he continued to ask, "You...... Why do you call me Miss? ”
The smile on the girl's face froze, and then she smiled again: "Miss is really joking, Dongmei has called you that since she was a child!" ”
"That's what you called it since you were a child?" Jiang Qingtian muttered in a low voice, as if he had thought of something, his eyes were a little more frightened, and he asked, "Where is this?" Why am I here? ”
Dongmei always thought that Xia Xue'er was deliberately playing tricks on herself, but she still replied with a smile: "Why doesn't Miss even know her own room?" Since that day, Young Master Zhuxuan rescued you from Qinglian Lake and you have been in a coma, the lord and the lady have been looking for famous doctors in order to heal you, and now the young lady is awake, I don't know how happy the old lady should be! ”
The more Jiang Qingtian listened, the more confused she became, wasn't her last memory being hit by a runaway truck? How did you fall into what Qinglian Lake? Shouldn't she have been taken to the hospital for first aid? How could you wake up in such an antique room and be called a young lady? The more she thought about it, the more scared she became, why was this happening, why?
"Who am I, who am I?" Jiang Qingtian's trembling hands gripped the girl's shoulders hard, hoping that the girl would tell her that it was just a dream or a prank.
Suffering the pain from her shoulders, Dongmei realized the abnormality of her own young lady, she had never seen such a gaffe young lady, let alone her so frightened eyes, she could feel the strong uneasiness of her young lady from the trembling hands on her shoulders. At this time, Dongmei was also scared silly, and her smile froze on her face, "Miss is not sleepy, of course you are Xia Xue'er, the third lady of the Xia family, I am your little girl Dongmei!" ”
"What Dongmei, what Xia Xue'er, I'm not Xia Xue'er, and I don't know Dongmei, I'm Jiang Qingtian! I'm Jiang Qingtian! Jiang Qingtian completely collapsed, she used all her strength to shake this weak girl violently, and then she held her head in her hands, and shouted with horror on her face, "This is impossible, you are lying to me, you must be lying to me!" ”
Dongmei looked at Jiang Qingtian, who was screaming and shouting like crazy, and couldn't help but get anxious, turned around and opened the door and ran out, muttering as she ran: "What should I do, Miss is crazy, Miss is crazy......"
Dongmei ran too fast, and bumped into an oncoming girl in blue at the corner, and the two fell to the ground together.
"Why are you so frizzy? Is there a ghost chasing you behind you? The woman in blue got up and patted the dust on her dress and said angrily.
Dongmei raised her eyes and saw that this person was Xianglan, her eyes immediately turned red, and she simply sat on the ground and cried: "Sister Xianglan, Miss, she's crazy!" ”
Xianglan glanced at Dongmei and said unhappily, "What nonsense are you talking about?" Beware of Madame cutting your tongue! ”
Faced with Xianglan's accusation, Dongmei replied aggrievedly: "I'm not talking nonsense, it's true." Miss Fang asked me to bring a bunch of newly cut peonies to our young lady, and when I entered the house, I found that the young lady had already woken up, but when she saw me, she looked like she didn't know me and asked me a strange question, and finally said that she was not Xia Xue'er What a sunny day! What do you say isn't crazy about losing your mind? ”
After all, Xianglan is a few years older than Dongmei, and she is the person who has always followed Xia Xue'er, she has experienced more things, and she is more cautious and calm when encountering things and is not as frizzy as Dongmei. After thinking for a while, he bent down and pulled up Dongmei, who was sitting on the ground, and comforted him softly: "Don't cry first, whether Miss is crazy or not has to wait for the doctor to come and see before you can make a conclusion, or it may be that Miss has been sleeping for a long time and is mentally delirious and temporarily forgotten." This is not to be said nonsense, and it is never good to spread it. Xianglan saw that Dongmei was still sobbing, and was worried that she would cause trouble and scare Mrs., so she could only sigh and carefully arrange her clothes while instructing softly: "It's a good thing that Miss is awake, don't cry and cry, there are many people in the house, and people can see how bad it is." You go to Qiu Ju and Cuizhu, and I'll tell Madame. ”
With that, they went their separate ways.
Jiang Qingtian didn't stay in the room since Dongmei broke out of the door, she barely supported herself and came to the courtyard to look around, hoping to find something similar to a camera to expose Dongmei's lies. She couldn't believe the idea that popped into her head, but she had been out for a long time and had not seen anything modern. On the contrary, every house, pavilion, grass and tree here is full of classical charm. Not only that, but everyone I met along the way, whether male or female, was dressed as a servant, and would respectfully salute her and call her Miss Three. She asked everyone she met along the way the same question – who was she? The answer that can be obtained is exactly the same as what Dongmei said. At this time, Jiang Qingtian gradually lost her motivation, and she began to slowly believe in the two amazing words that popped up in her mind before: crossing! Could it be that the car accident took her young life, and she accidentally traveled to this strange place after her death in the 21st century? Could it be that the kind of bloody plot that only appears in TV series really happened to her?
Yes, that's the only way to explain her current situation. Her body was already weak, and after walking so many ways, she was even more physically exhausted, and the double torture of mental and ** almost hit her again. Dizzy in front of him, Jiang Qingtian hurriedly held on to a peach tree on the side of the road, holding his chest and panting urgently. Feeling a big stone pressing down on her chest, it became very difficult to breathe, and her whole body was sore, and she was going to die. Is it possible to leave this strange place and return to her world after death?
At this time, a passing girl saw her so weak, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Third Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Jiang Qingtian, who has not fully accepted the fact of crossing at this moment, is really not very suitable for the title of "Third Miss", so others called her many times without noticing. Seeing that Xia Xue'er didn't pay attention to herself, the girl called a few more times before she caught Jiang Qingtian's attention.
Jiang Qingtian looked up at the girl in front of her, she was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a handsome face, wearing a red dress, the fabric was soft and silky, she didn't look like a subordinate here, and I don't know if it was a young lady. After adjusting his breath, he asked weakly, "Are you?" ”
The girl saw that Xia Xue'er was pale and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to support her sliding body, and replied after smiling slightly: "The slave maid is called Shuang'er, and she is the old lady's personal girl." The third miss has just woken up, her body is still very weak, and it is not suitable to walk outside, if the third miss doesn't mind, let the slave send you back to listen to Yuxuan. ”
Jiang Qingtian was a little surprised, such a sign of the person was dressed so differently that it was not a young lady but just a girl, but it can be seen that this girl's status in the mansion should not be bad, at least the old lady loves her. But she was a little puzzled, this girl named Shuang'er was not half surprised when she saw her, but expressed too calm.
"How do you know I've just woken up?"
"The slave maid also learned about this just after accidentally overhearing the conversation between Xianglan and Dongmei. The third lady should go back to the room quickly, Xianglan has already gone to inform the lady of the good news that you have woken up, if the old lady rushes to the young lady's room but does not see the young lady, she will inevitably worry about the fire again. ”
Jiang Qingtian said to herself: "Old lady? Mom and Dad? ”
Looking at the woman in front of me with a kind face, for some reason, I wanted to trust her inexplicably. That's it, if it's really crossing, then you won't be able to go back for a while, and now you can only take one step at a time, after all, it is occupying the body of other people's daughters. Jiang Qingtian smiled apologetically at Shuang'er with difficulty, and said, "Then please send me back, I'm not feeling well." ”
"Third Miss doesn't need to be so polite, this is what a slave should do."
Jiang Qingtian's body was extremely weak, basically the weight of the whole body was relying on Shuang'er, the two of them walked towards Tingyuxuan with difficulty, and before they reached the door, they saw three little girls walking out of the courtyard, one of which she recognized was Dongmei.
Shuang'er shouted to the three people who had just stepped out of the hospital: "Dongmei, Qiuju, Cuizhu, come and hold the third miss." ”
The three of them heard the shout, and followed the sound to see that the person who came was Xia Xue'er, who they were in a hurry to go out to look for, and hurriedly ran over, Dongmei and Qiu Ju took Xia Xue'er from Shuang'er's hand and helped them into Listening to Yuxuan.
Cuizhu left her footsteps, bowed gratefully to Shuang'er and said, "Thank you, Sister Shuang'er, we were just about to go out to find Miss, you have done us a great favor." ”
Shuang'er hurriedly helped her up and said: "Our status in this mansion is the same, don't be so polite, I can't stand it!" ”
After Cuizhu got up, he sincerely invited: "Sister Shuang'er came into the house and had a cup of tea." ”
Shuang'er smiled and shirked: "I won't drink the tea, the old lady still has something to tell me, and I can't delay." You take good care of Miss Three, Miss Three is good, then the whole house will be fine! With that, he didn't stop long, turned around and left.
Cuizhu looked at the back of Shuang'er leaving, and there were many doubts in her heart, but she couldn't tell what it felt.
This frost girl was brought back by the old lady six years ago when she came back from the incense in the family temple, and said that she was a poor person who picked it up halfway. In front of the old lady, Shuang'er's mouth was like smeared with honey, coaxing the old lady to be happy day by day, and in a short time she became a big celebrity in front of the old lady, although her identity was just a little girl, but she was the only person in the house who could be compared with Xia Xue'er.
What is unpredictable is that Shuang'er's well-behaved cuteness is only expressed in front of the old lady, but in front of others, she looks proud and independent, and even her smile is like wearing a mask, which makes it difficult to approach. Except for the old lady in the family, I haven't seen her care for anyone, even the old lady is no exception. Don't look at her face is extremely pure and sweet, but she is unfathomable, her joys, sorrows and sorrows are not easy to be noticed, and she doesn't interact with everyone who listens to Yuxuan on weekdays, and today's actions are really a bit unexpected. Cuizhu finally glanced meaningfully at the figure of Shuang'er gradually moving away, and then turned his head and walked into Tingyuxuan.
