Chapter 232: Substitute Village Girl 1
Nan Xi returned to the alternate dimension. In this life, she did not use too much spiritual power and her swordsmanship became much more refined.
My mental strength has also improved a bit. It seems that as I polish my body, my mental strength also increases.
It seems that it is true that all things return to the same destination.
Nan Xi took a break and started her training again.

Jingshui Village
Under the banyan tree at the entrance of the village, the leaves slowly fell down, children were playing among the fallen leaves, and the villagers gathered under the tree, chatting and laughing. Everything was warm and peaceful.
The sun was about to set, and the clouds in the sky became particularly beautiful, as if they were burning on fire.
On the small road near Jingshui Village, dust was flying. At this time, a group of people slowly walked into the village.
These people looked very tired and had no expression on their faces, because they were a group of prisoners who were exiled to the frontier.
The prisoners were wearing tattered clothes, had disheveled hair, and seemed to have difficulty walking.
They had a foul smell on them, and their faces were full of hardship and disappointment. They were chained together with iron chains, which made a clanking sound when they walked.
The team was led by a bearded man wearing a tattered official uniform and a not-new sword hanging from his waist.
His eyes were bright, sharp and cold.
He is the sergeant Huo Tieyi who is responsible for sending these prisoners to the border this time.
Jingshui Village is located on the official road, and there are few other villages around it, so exile teams often pass by here.
The villagers were no strangers to such scenes. They all came out of their homes to watch the excitement. The village chief Liu Chenglin stood at the entrance of the village to welcome the arrival of the team.
He had a kind smile on his face. "Welcome to Jingshui Village, General."
Liu Chenglin said respectfully: "We have prepared a place for you to stay. You can have a good rest here for a night."
Huo Tieyi nodded, his voice low, "Thank you, village chief, we will try our best not to cause you any trouble."
The team entered quietly, and the children of Jingshui Village watched curiously.
They looked at these soldiers in armor and armed with weapons, as well as many numb prisoners, with curiosity in their eyes.
The prisoners were taken to several empty rooms.
Their chains were unlocked and they were finally able to move a little.
Some people were sitting, some were lying down, some were talking in low voices, and some were just sitting there quietly.
One of them was a teenage girl who was also a prisoner, but her temperament and behavior were completely different from those around her.
There was some mud on her face, which was obviously a means to conceal her appearance, but she applied it in a very clever place so that it didn't seem deliberate.
Her eyes were firm, without the decadent and desperate expressions of the others. Instead, they revealed a sense of determination and calmness.
She sat quietly by the window, looking at the night sky outside.
Murong Zhaohua was immersed in his own thoughts when he suddenly felt some movement outside the window.
She turned her head and saw a small figure outside the window tiptoeing into the room.
The small figure is a little girl, about ten years old, with big eyes that reveal curiosity and playfulness.
The little girl didn't expect that she would be discovered. When she saw Murong Zhaohua's gaze, she was scared like a frightened little rabbit. She immediately shrank back and disappeared into the night.
But at that moment, Murong Zhaohua saw the little girl's face clearly, and her eyes widened involuntarily - this little girl actually looked somewhat like her!
Murong Zhaohua was shocked. She gently pushed open the window and stuck her head out to look around.
But the little girl had disappeared without a trace, leaving only the sound of brisk footsteps echoing in the night.
Murong Zhaohua sat by the window, feeling very nervous.
Who is this little girl? Why is she here? Is she from Jingshui Village? Is she related to me in some way?
Murong Zhaohua felt like her heart was being scratched by a cat. What she was thinking about the little girl made her feel that she had to do something.
She used the excuse of going to the toilet and quietly slipped out of the room.
In the darkness of night, she avoided the sergeant's sight and sneaked to the corner of the yard.
A black shadow suddenly jumped down from the tree and landed silently beside Murong Zhaohua.
This person is her secret guard Alie.
Ali was dressed in black and his face was covered, leaving only a pair of sharp eyes exposed.
Murong Zhaohua quickly whispered to A Lie: "The little girl I just saw looks a lot like me. Go check who she is and why she is here."
After hearing this, Ali nodded to show that he understood.
With a flash of his figure, Ali merged into the darkness again and disappeared without a trace.
Murong Zhaohua looked at the direction where Alie left, and felt a little relieved.
She quietly returned to her room and lay on the bed, hoping that Ali could find some useful information and that the little girl could bring her some good luck.
It was late at night and Murong Zhaohua had not fallen asleep yet. The figure of the little girl kept appearing in her mind, with a face that looked somewhat similar to her own.
Perhaps this is an opportunity, an opportunity to change one's destiny.
Ali quickly locked onto the little girl.
Through much inquiry and careful investigation, he discovered that the resemblance between this little girl and his master Murong Zhaohua was actually a complete coincidence.
The little girl's parents are ordinary villagers in the village and live a simple life.
They have no special background and no connection with Murong Zhaohua's family.
The reason why the little girl looks like Murong Zhaohua is just because of the wonderful arrangement of genes and fate.
Ali reported the situation to Murong Zhaohua in detail.
“Master, I have already checked it out, the fact that the little girl looks like you is just a coincidence.
Her parents are ordinary villagers in the village. Their family conditions are average and they can live a decent life. "
Murong Zhaohua nodded, "You go."
Murong Zhaohua was a little disappointed. She thought her grandfather would have a backup plan. This exile was too hard to bear. Even though she had Alie to protect her, she had to walk this path on her own.
"Grandfather, didn't you plan everything? Why did you leave like this? Zhaohua misses you so much."
Murong Zhaohua's tears flowed down her cheeks. She was the only one left in the Murong family. She could not accept her fate. She had to live and live well.
"Bang bang..."
The window suddenly opened and Murong Zhaohua saw the girl again.
She pursed her lips and opened the window.
The girl took out a cake from her sleeve and handed it to me through the window.
"You...you eat."
Murong Zhaohua took the pancake subconsciously. She was a little surprised. Why did this girl give her pancake?
The girl seemed a little shy, her face blushed, but she insisted on finishing what she said.
"You...eat quickly. I'll bring you more food tomorrow."
After saying that, the girl smiled at Murong Zhaohua and quickly ran away.
Murong Zhaohua stared at the girl's back infatuatedly. Was she being pitied?
