Chapter 30

Ding dong, ding dong.

The sound of the blue stones on the riverbed kept ringing in my ears.

I opened my eyes and saw a sharp knife-like stone pointing at me. It looked like it was about to fall down and crush me into powder. I was so scared by this scene that my heart immediately turned cold and I sobered up. I was sitting down on the ground. Slowly, the memories from before I lost consciousness came back to me: falling into the river, getting rid of the armor, sharing breath…

I didn’t have time to feel shy about Chu Kong sharing breath with me. When I thought about him getting rid of my golden armor, my heart filled with hatred. If I managed to survive this ordeal, how would I continue to live without money?! It was all for naught if I didn’t run away with expensive to pawn! Chu Kong wasn’t aware of the distress that came with being poor. Before returning to Heaven, I really didn’t want to taste the pain of wanting to eat meat but not being able to eat it.

Even though it was a hateful thing to do, it couldn’t be helped. The fact of the matter was that it had been done, and now I could only accept it. I rubbed my head and looked at the environment around me. This seemed like a deep, secluded cave. Everywhere I looked was  stalactites on stalactites on stalactites… Wasn’t this really strange? I remembered it clearly: I was dragged down by a strange chain into the river. Why was I now in a place like this? And...where was Chu Kong?

I held onto one of the stalactites and tried to stand up. Suddenly, I felt a sharp pain in my lower abdomen, like a needle had pierced through and was now coming back the other way to finish the stitch. I strongly endured it for a while, but the pain only intensified. It was like there was a razor in my womb. I curled into a ball from the pain. I tried to clench my teeth, but I couldn’t close my mouth.

This time...did someone try to poison me again...

“Xiao Xiang Zi.”

Someone tapped me on my face.

“Hey, hold it for moment.”

Someone grabbed my shoulder and shook it.

Still in pain, I opened my eyes and looked over. In the dim light of the cave, I could barely see his face. I kept staring. I hadn’t yet had the time to be surprised when I felt another cramp, forcing my body to arch like a shrimp. But despite it all, I still tried to break away from that person. It was futile. My arms didn’t have any strength. I gasped: “Ghost...ghost...”

This person actually had “Chu Qinghui’s” face!

“Chu Qinghui” frowned and said, very unhappy: “Your uncle is a ghost. Xiaoye is Chu Kong.”

I gasped: “How come...how come you look...look the same as me now?”

Hearing my own voice was an even worse shock. Why were the sounds coming out of my mouth so delicate? Recently, I’d gotten used to a man’s voice. Of course I would be shocked by suddenly hearing a woman’s voice!

Chu Kong was very dissatisfied and said, “Who looks like you? Go look at yourself.”

In a blink of an eye, he grabbed my hand and set it in front of my eyes. I took a closer look. It was a delicate hand, soft without the knobby jut of bone a man would’ve had. This...this was obviously a woman’s hand. I slowly moved the fingers, and only when they followed my directions did I realize that this was actually my hand. I was shocked. I felt the pain again and suddenly made another realization: “We...we changed bodies?”

Chu Kong nodded. “Although I don’t know what happened, it seems that we really swapped bodies.”

I flew into a rage. “Child’s play! Nonsense! Absurd!”
