Chapter 157: Return of Merit and Distinguishing Good from Evil

Gu Jiajie had been staring at Liang Xia's legs and soon noticed the changes in the injuries on his legs.

"Xiao Jin! Look, you've changed!"

Gu Jin also saw it. She stood in front of Liang Xia and squatted down to check the injuries on his legs and feet.

I found that the bruised and swollen injuries were changing at a slow speed visible to the naked eye.

The swelling is slowly subsiding and the purple color is gradually fading.

Although this process is slow, it is noticeable.

An Mingji was also attracted. He stood in front of Gu Jin and watched the magical scene before him.

Only Liang Xia was still enduring the inhuman torture, unaware of the changes happening in his legs.

The pain became more and more intense, and Liang Xia finally couldn't help but open his mouth and let out a heart-wrenching roar.

“Ahhhhhh!”

This roar was the last remaining memory of his waking life.

…

At dinner time, every household in Qingshan Village was cooking, and thick black smoke was coming out of almost every chimney.

Especially as the weather has been bad in the past few days, thick smoke has been spreading out of the chimneys of every household, making the small mountain village at the foot of Qingluan Mountain even more confusing and mysterious.

The Gu family is also cooking.

Chen Hong was cooking in the kitchen. Even though she had a falling out with her parents' family, she still had to go on with her life.

Apart from her slightly red and swollen eyes, she looked normal as usual. There was no sign of anything wrong with her. She cooked as usual, yelled at the children as usual, and naggled as usual.

"Minmin! Where are you going, you little bitch? Where's the firewood? I'm still waiting for the fire to start!"

Gu Minmin walked into the kitchen holding a bundle of dry firewood: "Here I come!"

After a while, Chen Hong walked out of the kitchen, ran straight to the entrance of the cellar in the courtyard, and started yelling in a loud voice.

"You little brat, are you laying eggs in the cellar? I've been asking for the meat for a long time, why haven't you brought it up yet?"

"I'm a man, what's the point of laying eggs?!"

Gu Jiajie's complaints came from the cellar.

He crawled out of the cellar covered in dust and handed the meat in his hand to his mother.

Chen Hong took the meat, looked at her dirty son and asked, "If you didn't lay any eggs, what were you doing in there for so long?"

Gu Jiajie blocked the cellar, took a look at the dirt on his body, and said with disgust: "I saw a rat in there, so I found the hole and blocked it, which delayed me a while."

When Chen Hong heard that there was a rat in the cellar, her face changed drastically.

"Did you kill the mice? Did they eat the meat?!"

"No, I think the hole is new. I'll wait for my dad to come back and ask him to clean up the cellar."

"OK!"

Chen Hong carried the meat back to the kitchen with a heavy heart.

Amid the shouting in the courtyard, Gu Jin, who had fallen into a coma in the room, and Liang Xia, who was lying on the ground, slowly woke up.

He opened his eyes and looked around the strange room, feeling as if his body had been hollowed out.

"Sister Jin is awake."

An Mingji was the first to notice Liang Xia's situation.

Gu Jin, who was meditating on the bed, quickly opened his eyes when he heard the boy's words.

In order to avoid being treated as an outsider, she immediately straightened her legs, got out of bed, put on her shoes, and walked towards Liang Xia.

Using the stream water from the space to heal Liang Xia's legs, Gu Jin discovered that the ancient skills she had acquired before had returned.

She could also see the aura that each person carried, the gray gas around her cousin, the purple gas around the little boy, and the aura around Liang Xia were all clearly visible.

I guess this is because she has accumulated merits by doing good deeds, so she can distinguish between good and evil again.
