Xuan Ji secretly swore in her heart that she would not let her body collapse before she met Cheng Mujun.

In order to repair her body, Xuan Ji studied a large number of books on secret techniques that Cheng Mujun left in the mansion.

She traveled freely among the small worlds, collected enough fragments of Xin'er's soul, and used those fragments to repair her body.

However, because of this, she was forced to allow Xin'er's soul to share the same puppet body with her.

If she tried to expel Xin'er's spirit, her own body would collapse.

Every day at midnight, Xin'er's residual soul would briefly leave Xuanji's body, and wander in the small world connected to this mansion, just like when she was alive, as if longing for something, looking for something.

Only at that time can Xuan Ji return to her purest self, and during this time, do what she wants to do.

The so-called Xuanji's belongings were actually things that originally belonged to Xiner.

Some of them were snatched away from Xin'er by Xuan Ji out of jealousy when she saw Cheng Mujun bring them back and give them to Xin'er. Some of them were stolen from Xin'er by Xuan Ji when she really treated Xin'er as her own sister and was envious of Cheng Mujun's love for Xin'er.

Jiang Lai always felt that the reason why those five things were particularly important in this copy was because they witnessed and recorded the entire process of Xuan Ji's mental journey, witnessing the process of her transformation from an obedient little puppet to a bloodthirsty and murderous demon.

She was not interested in Xuan Ji's story, but through Xuan Ji's experience, she realized the difficulty of this ruthless puppet who had no clear understanding of herself, whose mentality was distorted by jealousy.

After seeing the story between Xin'er, Xuanji and Cheng Mujun, everyone else was also filled with sadness.

I sigh for Xin'er's pitiful and tragic fate, who was so young but had to suffer from illness, was abused by Xuan Ji in various ways, and was even killed by Xuan Ji in the end.

Jiang Lai realized that something might be wrong.

If Xuanji's body was in a state of two souls in one body except at midnight every day when Xin'er left, how could she control the puppet's body alone, appear in the puzzle world entered by the players, and interfere with the players' actions in various ways?

She even created fake Fu Qiming, Jin Jiahui and others, which not only increased the difficulty for players to complete the game, but also wanted to take their lives.

If there really are two souls, one good and one evil, in Xuan Ji's body, in this case, Xuan Ji might need to compete with Xin Er's soul, or even fight for control of the body.

So how did she do it, keeping Xin'er in check while entering the puzzle dungeon to hunt down and target players?

Also, is the mastermind who can control Chu Feng through sleepwalking really Xuan Ji?

Who designed the various color areas in this precious mansion, the negative states corresponding to the color areas, and the various game rules in the mansion?

To be honest, Jiang Lai didn't think that a puppet like Xuan Ji could possess such powerful wisdom and such meticulous logical thinking ability.

All of this made Jiang Lai vaguely feel something.

She felt that there must be someone else behind the Curio House.

And this may be the final puzzle that players need to solve in this puzzle game.

Jiang Lai was thinking this in his heart, but suddenly he found that the scene playing out in front of him was exactly the scene where Xuan Ji was about to kill Xin Er!

Xuan Ji, who had already forced Xin'er to the window and was about to kill the poor little girl, suddenly turned around and stared at Jiang Lai and the other five players.

"You...have seen it, right?"

Xuanji's pair of eyes carved out of wood rolled around flexibly as she looked at the players, and suddenly a dangerous and bloodthirsty smile appeared on her face.

"Since you have all seen it, I can't let you live. It just so happens that I can send you down together to accompany Father Mujun."

"Haha, we are not as interested in Cheng Mujun as you are. If you want to accompany him, you can go down and find him yourself. Or, if you are polite, we can take action to send you down to accompany him. That is also possible."

As Jiang Lai spoke, she drew out her sword and flew towards Xuan Ji.

Just when Xuan Ji thought that she was about to be chopped into a pile of broken wood chips by the sword in Jiang Lai's hand, something completely unexpected happened.

Jiang Lai actually passed by her quickly, then grabbed Xin'er, and holding Xin'er, he teleported back to the players' team.

Seeing that Jiang Lai successfully rescued Xin'er, Jin Jiahui couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

She walked towards Jiang Lai.

"Xiao Lai, hand this little girl over to me. Look, she is covered in wounds, so pitiful. That vicious puppet is too vicious. He can even harm such a young child. Moreover, this child is suffering from a disease..."

"I want to use my healing skills to help her recover from the external injuries first." Jin Jiahui said kindly.

However, something happened that she had never expected.

Jiang Lai actually held Xin'er in his arms and took several steps back, avoiding the hand that Jin Jiahui extended to him.

Jin Jiahui was stunned for a moment, then immediately thought of something and explained to Jiang Lai: "Don't worry, I am the real Jin Jiahui, not a fake. You can safely leave the girl to me, I will cure her..."

"Haha, if I really hand her over to you, it will be bad." Jiang Lai said with a smile: "Whether you are true or false, what you see in front of you is not the truth."

"Don't forget, this copy itself is a puzzle. And Xuan Ji is just a puppet in the puzzle. And puppets can be controlled by people!" Jiang Lai reminded other players.

While others were still confused, Xin'er, who was being pulled by Jiang Lai, suddenly blinked and started talking!

"Ah, how boring. I didn't expect that a little girl would find out so quickly."

The voice that came out of Xin'er's young body was also that of a young girl, somewhat immature and childish.

However, the girl's voice was obviously older than Xin'er's age indicated by her body.

"Hey, girl, tell me..."
