The backdrop can also be propped up.

Chapter 247 So sleepy, so sleepy, so sleepy, so sleepy

The words seemed to come from nowhere, and with them, golden rays of light appeared behind the Second Miss Li Yue.

The golden light then dispersed into many tiny golden specks, which landed on Li Yue's hand that was gripping Fang Cheng's neck.

Li Yue felt a burning pain from the golden light and cried out. She released her grip on Fang Cheng's neck.

Because Li Yue was injured, the things that Li Yue controlled that were binding the equation also released the equation.

Fang Cheng thought he was going to fall to the ground, but instead, it was as if someone caught him and he was slowly laid flat, and then his head rested on something soft.

Fang Cheng struggled to open his eyes. Although he couldn't focus his vision, he could still make out that it was a gentle woman with smiling eyes. She was looking down at Fang Cheng and chanting some incantations that Fang Cheng couldn't understand.

Fang Cheng felt much better; at least he could speak, but his mind was still a bit foggy. Looking at the girl in front of him, who was smiling down at him, Fang Cheng groggily uttered his thoughts: "Am I... seeing a fairy?"

The gentle woman paused, seemingly puzzled, and gave a soft "hmm," before laughing, "I'm not, I'm just a part of someone who came to help your soul."

Fang Cheng was slightly more awake, but not quite; he still looked dazed.

"Don't speak, let me treat you for a little longer." The gentle woman extended a finger and tapped Fang Cheng's nose, then placed her hands on either side of Fang Cheng's cheeks. Her hands were somewhat rough, and calluses could be felt on some of her fingers, probably from long hours of hard work.

Meanwhile, inside the pocket, Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM began an urgent discussion about who this person was.

“There is no information about this woman in the original text,” the system WQBYRZM found all the facial data and original descriptions it could find, “meaning she is a character outside the plot.”

"A character outside the main plot? She looks like some kind of big shot." Lu Renkui secretly opened Fang Cheng's pocket a crack to peek at the woman who had suddenly appeared outside. "Is she here to help us?"

"It should be. According to the clues I compiled, it says someone will help Fang Cheng and the others hold off the eldest and second young ladies. This should be the one." System WQBYRZM said, while anxiously pulling up the task progress bar—the task progress bar had shortened, probably because the second young lady's appearance had hurt Fang Cheng.

Hopefully, Fangcheng can pull through. System WQBYRZM sighed, closed the task panel, and together with Lu Renkui, crouched down in the pocket seam, peering through the seam at the woman who had suddenly appeared outside.

Suddenly, Lu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM heard the voice of the second young lady outside.

"Oh my, isn't this the body I almost got back then? What, you're here too?" Li Yue smiled and summoned back her sword, her eyes filled with disdain and wariness as she looked at the gentle woman who had suddenly appeared.

Fang Cheng could see the woman's face more clearly now. She saw the woman's smile vanish, and then the gentle woman raised her head and said calmly, "I've never seen anyone continue to do evil after death. I came to see you all, just to remember the time I spent at the tea house."

Upon hearing this, Fang Chenglu Renkui and the system WQBYRZM knew who the woman in front of them was—one of the people who had escaped from the tea plantation, and she should be the tea-picking girl who wrote the diary.

Li Yue snorted, playing with the knife in her hand, and then quickly rushed towards the woman who had suddenly appeared.

The woman remained calm, showing not a trace of panic. She raised one hand, extending her index and middle fingers, and recited an incantation. Then, a golden light shot out from her hand.

The golden light rushed straight towards Li Yue. Seeing that things were going badly, Li Yue immediately stretched out her knife to block it. Unexpectedly, the golden light split into several pieces when it touched her knife. Those pieces of golden light surrounded Li Yue, trapping her in a small space and preventing her from making any big moves.

Li Yue was somewhat unwilling. She tried to use the knife in her hand to cut the cage made of golden light. The knife struck the bars made of golden light, but did not damage the cage in the slightest.

Li Yue was a little angry. She held the knife up to the gentle woman in the cage and said, "What's it to you if I resurrect myself by changing the sacrifice? Can't you just mind your own business?"

The gentle woman ignored what the second young lady was saying; she simply continued muttering incantations and treating Fang Cheng.

Fang Cheng has mostly regained her senses. She squinted and stared blankly at the person who had suddenly appeared.

"This person who suddenly appeared must be a good person, right?" Fang Cheng thought to himself. "She even came to my rescue."

“You can get up now,” the gentle woman tapped Fang Cheng’s forehead. “If you keep resting your head on my lap, my legs will go numb.”

"Oh, oh, oh." Fang Cheng stood up uncomfortably, then turned to look at the woman who had suddenly appeared.

The face that was not very clear just now is now clear—this woman has an oval face; although her features are not particularly delicate, they are very pleasing to the eye; her droopy eyes give people a gentle and peaceful feeling; she is not wearing makeup and is not very fair-skinned, in fact, you could say she is a bit dark; her long black hair is tied up at the back of her head and secured with a bamboo hairpin.

Although Li Yue was still attacking the golden cage and creating unsettling noise, Fang Cheng felt much more at ease with the presence of this woman who, while not particularly beautiful, possessed a serene aura.

"Um, thank you, thank you..." Fang Cheng was speechless. He wanted to say something more to the woman, but then realized that he didn't seem to have anything to say.

"No need to thank me. This is something I didn't handle well back then," the gentle woman said with a face full of apology. She patted Fang Cheng's head and said, "I never thought that their resentment was so great, and that they could use the resentment of the people who had died in the tea house to summon an evil god that could grant them a form of immortality."

"When I discovered it, the tea house had already become a so-called dungeon, repeatedly letting in groups of innocent people and using them as sacrifices to repeat the unfinished sacrifices of the two sisters and strengthen their power. I could only use a few pieces of my diary that I had written before and a few pieces of paper that I added later as anchors, as long as someone saw these papers, I could find the exact location of this tea house dungeon."

"However, they also discovered it and set a rule that only tea-picking women could find my diary when they went to get their baskets outside of working and preparation time."

“I watched as batches of people entered this instance, but none of them found this set of clue papers—because they spent their off-duty hours searching for clues throughout the tea plantation, and only when it was almost time to start work would they take their baskets and continue picking tea leaves.”

"You're the first one to find a stack of clue papers," the gentle woman sighed.

Li Yue was still inside the golden cage, smashing it and trying to destroy the golden light so she could get out and kill Fang Cheng and the other sacrificial offering who had escaped the tea plantation.

"I'll take you home now." The gentle woman noticed that Li Yue's reaction was getting more and more intense. She stood up and pulled Fang Cheng up as well, leading Fang Cheng forward. "You should go home. Besides, the other two are coming too. Staying here will only put you in danger."

"Then what are you going to do?" Fang Cheng asked with some concern. "I feel that someone who can create so many copy worlds must be quite strong."

Upon hearing this, the gentle woman smiled and patted Fang Cheng's head, saying, "Don't worry, I can handle the rest. Go home, your parents are still waiting for you."

The woman pulled the hairpin from her hair and casually flicked it in the air. Instantly, a white light appeared, and faint sounds could be heard from within the light.

"Now, go back." The woman gently pushed the equation towards the direction of the white light.

When the equation reached the white light, the light suddenly widened and expanded, just wide enough for the equation to pass through.

Fang Cheng looked at the white light, feeling a surge of excitement—finally, she could go home—but just as she stepped inside, she suddenly remembered something and turned to ask the gentle woman, "What's your name?"

The gentle woman was slightly surprised that the girl in front of her would suddenly turn around and ask this question. She then generously revealed her name: "My name is Xiao Niba. After I went to school, I changed my name to Luo Chenni."

"Falling into mud? Falling into mud and crushed into dust, only the fragrance remains. Is that what it comes from?" Fang Cheng asked.

"Not really. I found my mother after making inquiries from various sources. Although she had already passed away by then, I still learned that her surname was Luo. Chenni means dust and mud. My life has been full of hardships, so I simply chose this name so that the ghost messengers in the underworld wouldn't notice me." Luo Chenni smiled. "However, I also really like that poem by Lu You."

After saying that, Luo Chenni stepped forward and gave Fang Cheng another push: "Let's go quickly, they're coming."

As Fang Cheng was pushed, she was enveloped in a white light. Stimulated by the light, she unconsciously closed her eyes.

After a while, Fang Cheng opened his eyes with difficulty and saw a shadowless lamp hanging over him.
