Chapter 281: Disaster for the Country and the People

Li Jizu's shrill voice rang out, and Lianyi had already punched the opponent hard in the stomach, making him curl up in pain like a duck with its neck strangled. He could only groan.

Perhaps inspired by Li Jizu, those servants who were still breathing began to shout for help at the top of their lungs, alarming several nearby families.

"Humph! I wanted to let you live a little longer, but since you don't want to, forget it!"

Lianyi muttered to herself, and slashed Li Jizu's throat with a knife, threw all the things he carried with him into the space, and then stabbed the howling servants, sending them to see the King of Hell.

Noticing that someone was coming towards them holding a lantern, Lianyi quickly took away all the identity proofs from these people, then flashed into the alley and quickly ran towards the alley in her backyard.

After crawling through the dog hole and coming to the backyard, Lianyi blocked the dog hole again and returned to her boudoir quietly. She threw the blood-stained clothes into the space, hid the dagger, and got into bed. Only then did she close her eyes and let out a breath. The first disaster of her original body was avoided.

Afterwards, Lianyi continued to receive the remaining memories of the original body. When the Wu family was wiped out, the original body had to follow Li Jizu back to the capital.

Because the housekeeper was not at home that night and escaped the disaster, he finally chose to stay in the Wu Mansion to guard the yard. He sold the rice shop and the storefront, which were the visible fixed assets, and gave them to the original owner as travel expenses for her to go to her cousin.

In addition to the private money hidden by the original body, after arriving at the Li Mansion, he was still valued by the Li family for a period of time. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. When the money was almost spent, the Li family began to ask Wu Youcai indirectly about the whereabouts of his other property.

At that time, the original body was already fourteen years old and had long been aware of the Li family's sinister intentions. How could he tell these people his father's last words before his death? So he relied on his young age and said he knew nothing about anything.

Coupled with the disaster that happened that day when her family was massacred, whenever she mentioned the previous events, she would complain of a headache, her face turned pale, and she fainted within two quarters of an hour.

The Li family was dumbfounded and sought out a famous doctor for consultation. The old doctor was quite competent and said that the original owner had panic disorder, which was a sequelae of the shock. Because he was too scared, his head would hurt whenever he recalled the scene at that time and he deliberately avoided it.

Li Jizu knew very well that this was the root of the disease he had planted that day. He was in a murderous mood and left almost no one alive. If he had not found any family property, his little cousin would have probably met the King of Hell by then. Facing the corpses and blood all over the yard, she would have developed this damn panic disorder.

The original person thought that with this panic disorder standing in the way, the Li family would stop their actions, but unfortunately she underestimated the greed and cruelty of human nature.

At that time, the Emperor of Yan State became obsessed with the art of longevity and preservation of youth. He sought out many Taoists to come to the palace to preach and refine elixirs of immortality, hoping to continue enjoying the prosperity and wealth of the world.

For a time, the common people followed suit and began to go in and out of Taoist temples. They placed statues of the Taoist ancestors in their homes for worship. The Li family found an old Taoist nun, who promised that she had a way to make the original body remember what happened before and help the Li family get a huge fortune, but she also put forward conditions.

The Taoist nun said that her method was somewhat detrimental to her moral character. She wanted to cast a spell to ask the soul of the cousin from the Li family, so if the spell succeeded, she would be dead. Therefore, the Li family must take care of her funeral.

Secondly, because it is a question of soul-searching, a trace of her soul must be parasitic on this cousin, and she can only reincarnate after her soul has been cultivated.

Therefore, the Li family must treat this cousin well. If she is prevented from reincarnation, she will activate the most vicious spell and make the Li family pay the price.

In order to obtain all of Wu Youcai's property, the Li family naturally agreed and prepared the items for casting the spell according to the Taoist nun's request. They then activated the spell on a dark and windy night.

When the original body woke up, she found that she was trapped in a formation drawn with blood. A thick black fog was drilling into her body. Then she felt herself becoming light and seemed to be leaving her body. Unfortunately, she was pulled back into her body by a black hand in the next breath.

Then the original body felt her consciousness becoming increasingly blurred until it disappeared completely. When she woke up again, she was on the execution ground, having been beheaded amid the people's curses.

The original body's memory ended here. Lianyi was sure that this should be the last thing the original body saw before his death.

"Nineteen, was the original body's soul devoured or did it fall into a deep sleep?"

As a former great monk, Lianyi is still very sensitive.

"She fell into a deep sleep, and her body was controlled by the Taoist nun. She handed over part of the Wu family's property and was sent to the palace at the age of sixteen.

Because the original body was beautiful, and the old Taoist nun had the blessing of mature spirit and some Taoist magic, the emperor was obsessed with her and fell at her feet. He built pavilions and towers for her, and built a palace for her after she ascended to heaven. In short, he did everything he could to spend money and manpower.

After this meal, the national treasury was empty, the emperor was not in court, taxes were increased again and again, officials from all sides exploited the people at all levels, and finally the people were living in misery, and the old Taoist nun who borrowed the original body was also called a demon concubine who brought disaster to the country!

In order to quell the popular uprising, the eldest prince could only advise killing the original concubine to appease the people's resentment. The old emperor was also afraid and worried that his throne would be lost. At the eldest prince's strong request, he killed the original concubine.

But before the original body was executed, the other party changed her body and replaced the eldest prince. When the original body woke up, she was beheaded. She denied her fault, but unfortunately no one believed her, and she ended up with her head and body separated.

The eldest prince took the opportunity to get rid of the old emperor, and then began to use war to support the people, conquering everywhere, causing chaos in the world. Several neighboring countries were successively drawn into the vortex of war, causing the world to almost collapse. You know how much resentment the people have, so this mission was given."

Lianyi had already opened her eyes at this time. After listening to Shijiu's explanation, she said casually:

"There's something wrong with that Taoist nun, or rather, there's something wrong with that spirit."

"Congratulations to the tasker for discovering the main task. Destroy that evil spirit and stop the chaos in this plane."

"What is the original body's wish?"

Lianyi did not respond and asked another question:

"The original body's wish was very simple. She only hoped to keep the inheritance left by her father, live a free, peaceful and happy life, and not be schemed against by the Li family. She didn't care about anything else. After all, she was only fourteen years old when her body was invaded. She was still a child."

Shijiu explained it very clearly.

"I know what to do."

After Lianyi finished speaking, she stood up and started to put on her clothes. The sky had already turned dim.

Shijiu didn't say any more and went invisible online.

"Miss, are you awake?"

Luo Ying opened the door quietly and found that her young lady was already dressing herself, so she immediately stepped forward to take over.

"Well, I didn't sleep well, so I woke up early."
