In Beiyi country, in the 30th year of Zhengxi, on the night of June 18th, in a village fifty miles away from the capital, a large group of people were surrounding the village with torches, flames shot up into the sky, and the entire village was engulfed in flames.

"Shangguan Qingge, you disaster star, come out quickly!" Everyone's expressions were ferocious and full of anger!

Only two figures, one old and one young, were seen standing in front of the angry crowd.

"You...you...cough cough!" A nanny covered her mouth and started coughing.

"You are going to kill the officials' families. Aren't you afraid of being blamed by the court?" A maid next to the nanny shouted.

"Hmph, officials' families, Dong'er, she is a disaster star. The master and the mistress have said that they don't acknowledge her as their daughter. You two don't stand in the way. We are doing justice for the heavens. Only if she dies, we won't suffer!" said the leader, with his hands on his hips.

"Madame Qian, you...you are really blinded by greed. What benefits did Liu give you that made you betray her and want to harm the eldest lady! Cough cough cough" the madam roared, thinking back to the time when she and Madam Qian were both maids who came with the eldest lady's dowry. Although she knew that Madam Qian was a scheming person, she also felt that she was not a bad person. She didn't expect that she was the one who usurped the opportunity to get the villagers to come and burn the eldest lady to death!

"Madame Qin, a wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. I have only told you the fact that the eldest lady is a disaster. Should we all be buried with her because of her? Have you forgotten that the madam was killed by the eldest lady?" Madame Qian raised her voice. She wanted all the villagers around her to hear it and arouse everyone's anger.

The room behind Dong'er and Nanny Qin had not yet been burned by the fire. The person lying on the bed in the room slowly opened her eyes, looked at everything in the room and listened to the quarrel outside. A memory that did not belong to her filled her mind.

In the 30th year of Zhengxi in Beiyi Kingdom, Shangguan Qingge, the legitimate daughter of Shangguan Jin in Shangshu Mansion, lost her mother at the age of three. Her father then married Liu, the second daughter of the left prime minister of the current dynasty, as his heir. Less than six months after the marriage, she gave birth to the second daughter Shangguan Qingyun. When Shangguan Qingyun was born, a wandering Taoist priest came to the Taoist temple and said that the Phoenix Star had reincarnated into the Shangguan family, accompanied by a disaster star. The disaster star can only harm the people around it. Because Shangguan Qingge was born, everyone thought that the Phoenix Star was Shangguan Qingyun, and all the love in the family was on her. Rumors that the disaster star was Shangguan Qingge also slowly appeared. Until half a year ago, when Shangguan Qingge's biological brother, Shangguan Jin's legitimate son disappeared, everyone became more certain that the disaster star was her!

Her memory gradually became clear. Six months ago, the day after her brother disappeared, she was called into the study by her biological father and told that she would be sent to the farm. Shangguan Qingge cried and hugged her father's legs, begging bitterly, saying that she was willing to be a slave and serve her second sister, and only asked her father not to send her to the farm. But what she got in return was a slap in the face from her father, and then she was forcibly dragged onto the carriage and sent here. The only people who followed her were her maid Dong'er and her two mothers' dowry, Nanny Qin and Nanny Qian.

"What a pathetic life you have lived. You didn't choose a good way to die, but starved yourself to death!"

That’s right, the person lying on the bed now is Shangguan Qingge, but it is Shangguan Qingge of another soul!

Shangguan Qingge, one of the top killers of the 21st century killer organization Xue Haitang, died the morning before one day while having breakfast with her master in the villa. Her death was quite tragic. She was killed in a bombing. Someone found their residence and placed a time bomb. She and her master were blown to pieces before they could react. It turns out that people really have souls after death. Her soul was floating, and she saw a beam of golden light, and woke up again in this body.

"I'm so hungry..." Shangguan Qingge felt so hungry that she could hardly speak. She used all her strength to get up and leaned on the bed. She wanted to see if there was anything to eat in the house. If she didn't eat something, she would either starve to death again or she would not have the strength to escape and be burned to death by the fire! She looked around the house and there was nothing to eat. Instead, the smell of fireworks was getting stronger and stronger. It was estimated that it would burn here in a quarter of an hour. Suddenly, she saw the bracelet on her left hand. The bracelet was made of steel. Unexpectedly, there was steelmaking technology in ancient times. However, what surprised her was that this bracelet was exactly the same as the one given to him by his master in his previous life. The master also gave it a name, called Qiankun Circle, saying that it was inherited from his ancestors and could save his life at a critical moment. A bracelet made of steel, how could it be so mysterious? It was not as good as gold and silver jewelry. This thing was not worth much if sold to a junk collector! However, after all, it was given by the master. She didn't want the master to feel bad, so she put it on her hand. Maybe this was fate. When she came here, she could still have an item related to the master.

She touched the bracelet on her body and her right hand suddenly sank into it. She pulled her right hand out suddenly, only to see a piece of compressed biscuit in her hand.

"This...this...this..." Shangguan Qingge's eyes widened. Isn't this packaging the military compressed biscuits she stored in the villa? She reached out again, wanting to see if she could take out a bottle of water. She really took out a bottle of water, which was also the water she stored in the villa.

Now there was nothing to worry about. I tore open the package and started eating without thinking. I finished it in a short while and drank most of the water. My stomach was no longer empty and my strength slowly recovered. However, the smell of smoke in the house was getting stronger and stronger. The fire was about to burn here. I had to get out quickly!

The quarrel outside had not stopped yet. Shangguan Qingge took out a pistol from the Qiankun Circle this time and checked the bullets. Good, there were enough. She was now really sure that what her master said was right. This Qiankun Circle was really mysterious and had not lied to her. It felt great to have a gun in her hand, and this gun was the one she used most. Shangguan Qingge did not hesitate and got out of bed immediately after getting the gun.

With a "bang", the door opened and Shangguan Qingge walked out. She saw Dong'er and Nanny Qian fighting with each other. However, Dong'er was young and not as strong as Nanny Qian. Nanny Qian was almost crushing Dong'er unilaterally. Nanny Qian grabbed Dong'er's hair and slapped him continuously. Blood had already seeped from the corners of Dong'er's mouth. Several people were grabbing Nanny Qin, and Nanny was crying and cursing non-stop!

"Let them go!" Shangguan Qingge yelled, and everyone noticed her. The fire behind her illuminated her petite body. Her hair was stuck to her scalp. Long-term malnutrition made her hair very thin. She couldn't tie it up, so she could only let it hang down. Her body was as thin as a skeleton.

Shangguan Qingge looked around at the crowd. Everyone was holding a torch, but looking at their faces, their eyes were sunken and their cheekbones were prominent, as if they had been hungry for a long time. Nanny Qin and Dong'er were also abnormally thin. The only one who still looked a bit human was Nanny Qian. Although she also looked thin, she was very healthy.

No wonder, it turned out that she had hidden the food. She, Dong'er and Nanny Qin all tightened their belts to save food and often did not have enough to eat. But this mean slave ate all by himself!

As I recall, this place has been dry for a very long time. It hasn't rained for a long time, and the water source has dried up. Without water, there is no harvest, and naturally the food becomes less and less. In the end, there is basically nothing to eat. It would be strange if people didn't starve to death!

"Oh, Miss, you are willing to come out. I thought you were dead in there!" Nanny Qian stopped and spoke, but she did not let go of Dong'er's hair and pulled it up. Only painful whimpers could be heard from Dong'er's mouth.

"I say it again, let her go!"
