She picked up the young prime minister while fleeing famine

It has to be said that Lian Chengmo truly lives up to his reputation as the male protagonist of a book; he is incredibly intelligent and quick-witted.

Banxia knew he had guessed it when she saw Lian Chengmo's actions.

“You’re right. The current Lian Chengshan is from two thousand years in the future, just like me, so she’s no longer the person you hate,” Banxia explained.

Banxia couldn't directly say that they had all transmigrated into a book, such a bizarre thing, because Lian Chengmo definitely wouldn't believe it.

Even Banxia herself couldn't believe that the world she had worked so hard to live in after transmigrating was just a world in a book. How absurd was that?

Moreover, according to Lian Chengshan, the descriptions in the book are completely different from everything she experienced, so Banxia does not believe that this is still the world in the book.

Even so, they have changed everything. With her and Lian Chengmo protecting them, Xiao Shuang'er and A Yu will not die again.

Furthermore, the original owner's biological grandparents are still alive and well. This place is very different from the book; this is the real world.

Banxia decided to ignore the fact that they had transmigrated into the book and just tell Lian Chengmo that they had traveled through time.

However, Lian Chengmo still found it hard to believe. He couldn't imagine how a soul from two thousand years in the future could have arrived two thousand years in the past.

Oh no, now they are two souls from two thousand years in the future.

"How can you prove that she isn't Lian Chengshan, the one who killed Shuang'er?" Lian Chengmo asked suddenly after a moment of silence.

"......" Banxia, ​​this little stick-in-the-mud, is she digging a pit for her?

It would have taken Banxia a lot of brain cells to guess how he was reborn, so how could she possibly know such detailed things about his life before his rebirth?

Banxia's mind raced. She couldn't explain transmigrating into a book, but Lian Chengmo was just too smart. Unless she killed him, he would eventually realize something was wrong.

The reality is different from what I imagined. Before confronting Lian Chengmo, Banxia didn't want to talk about transmigrating into the book, but now it seems she has no choice but to.

Sigh, this little stick-in-the-mud, how come his mind works so fast?

Banxia's silence for a few breaths was indeed enough for Lian Chengmo to think a lot. His heart sank slightly. Sure enough, the little girl knew a lot.

But why is it that she doesn't know Emperor Qingyuan, and even though she said they weren't from the same era, yet she knows so much?

Lian Chengmo, such an ancient figure, is someone whose existence is so unbelievable that even a CPU burning out would never guess he's a two-dimensional character living in a book.

It didn't matter, Banxia chose to block.

Anyway, it's not her who's having a hard time.

"Lian Chengmo, what I'm about to say might be a little hard for you to understand, but I can explain it to you." Banxia hesitated for a moment, then quickly made a decision.

"Okay." Lian Chengmo looked at the girl opposite him with gentle eyes and nodded.

In any case, it was already quite an achievement for the young girl to choose to explain things to him.

Lian Chengmo understood this feeling of harboring a strange secret that could not be shared with others, so although he was shocked, puzzled, and confused, he felt more warmth in his heart.

After all, he can only ensure that they do not interfere with each other, and he cannot reveal his secrets to the other party. He might even choose to silence them because they know too many of his secrets.

But things are different now. Although the girl has revealed his secret, she has also openly shared her own. In fact, Lian Chengmo is more curious about the girl's secret than his own.

"Lian Chengshan and I both come from China, two thousand years in the future, a peaceful country where everyone is equal..."

"I died suddenly from working too long hours. I came here the day I met you three siblings..."

"Although nothing here is as convenient as in modern times, it's good that there's no 996 work schedule. Even though we've been caught in a war, life is still relatively easy when we hide in the mountains. Plus, I've found a good master and made a good friend like you. I'm very happy."

"I just didn't expect that the original owner's background was problematic. She was actually the orphan of a daughter of the Yan family who had married out. Lian Chengmo, I suppose this has caused you some trouble?" Banxia softly recounted some things about her life before and after transmigrating, and finally smiled helplessly.

"Fortunately, the Duke of Yan is also a powerful and shrewd man. Perhaps he is no less capable than Emperor Qingyuan," Lian Chengmo said upon seeing this.

"Lian Chengmo, what I'm about to say might shatter your worldview. You have to believe me." Banxia sighed, suddenly becoming serious.

Upon hearing this, Lian Chengmo's expression also became more composed, and he nodded to signal the little girl to continue.

"I originally thought I had just traveled to a dynasty that was not recorded in history, but then I met Lian Chengshan this morning."

“She told me that this is a world in a novel, and we are all characters in the novel, especially you, Lian Chengmo, you are the male protagonist in the book,” Banxia said.

"Novel? Male protagonist?" Lian Chengmo was hearing this term for the first time and didn't quite understand it.

"You can think of a novel as a storybook, and the male protagonist is the main character in the storybook," Banxia explained.

Lian Chengmo nodded, finding it somewhat hard to understand. How could he, a perfectly normal person, become the protagonist of a storybook?

"Here's the important part: Lian Chengshan was reading our novel before she transmigrated. She also died suddenly from working too long hours, and then transmigrated into Lian Chengshan's body."

"You can understand this, right?" Banxia asked.

"..." Lian Chengmo was incredulous, but it seemed he could understand it somewhat.

"The reason she is so afraid of her brother and you is because she read the novel and knows that her brother has a sadistic hobby, and she also knows that you are ruthless to your enemies."

"That's why she chose to flee when Yunzhou City was about to fall. However, this pampered girl, raised in modern times, had no idea of ​​the dangers of the world, and she was kidnapped not long after."

"Then she ran away and ran into me. In her breakdown, she was talking incoherently. It was only through her ramblings that I realized she was from two thousand years in the future, just like me."

"After discovering that I'm from the same hometown, she wanted me to save her life. You just heard it too: if I spare her life, she'll be my slave from now on," Banxia said, spreading her hands.

"So, everything about my past life was told to you by her? What else does she know?" Upon hearing this, Lian Chengmo's murderous intent towards Lian Chengshan intensified.

Someone who knows so many of his secrets cannot be allowed to live.

"Hey, don't misunderstand. She only knows that she transmigrated into a book, but she doesn't know that you were reborn. She thinks that the plots in the books she read were changed by me, an outsider. So she is definitely not a threat to you." Banxia knew something was wrong as soon as she saw Lian Chengmo's expression, so she quickly said.

"So what she saw were things that happened in my past life?" Lian Chengmo grasped the key point directly and asked.

"Hmm, and I suspect that my time travel and your rebirth might also be related to her. The place she worked in our world was quite advanced, involving the exploration of spacetime and the like."

“I don’t know what caused our time travel, or your rebirth. Anyway, everything that’s happening to us now is completely different from the storylines she’s been watching,” Banxia said hurriedly.

"So, how much does she know about me?" Lian Chengmo's eyes darkened as he asked.
