Xue Wanxue was too cautious; Zhang Laowu couldn't find an opportunity to harm her and Zhang Jizhou.
Fortunately, Xue Wanxue had been depressed for more than ten years, which finally took a toll on her health.
A cold kept recurring and didn't heal for more than half a year.
Her unpredictable illness gradually lowered her guard, finally giving him the opportunity to strike.
Zhang Laowu also learned by chance from the old barefoot doctor that the sandalwood powder, which his ancestors had used to treat colds, could actually kill people quietly in a short period of time when combined with ginseng soup.
Ginseng slices? We had them at home. Xue Wanxue was truly a treasure of the Xue family; she was given several ginseng slices when she got married.
Xue Wanxue used those ginseng roots and her dowry to raise Zhang Jizhou, that bastard child, to be as strong as a calf and rarely get sick.
Zhang Laowu used some tricks to get the ginseng slices.
I went up the mountain again and dug up a few more sandalwood trees.
To cover his tracks, he gritted his teeth and spent a lot of money to buy two old hens.
That's settled.
The old barefoot doctor usually liked to drink, and he blurted it out after being plied with alcohol by Zhang Laowu.
Looking back, I was still shaken, but I tried to comfort myself by saying that these days, people can't even get enough to eat, so who has ginseng?
He never imagined that Xue Wanxue, who had been married into the family for over a decade, still hadn't finished eating the ginseng slices that came with her dowry.
It wasn't until Zhang Jizhou cried and begged him to let him see his mother that he finally got to see her.
As a descendant of a family of barefoot doctors, the old barefoot doctor was quite skilled. Upon seeing Xue Wanxue's condition and taking her pulse, he knew that Xue Wanxue had died from organ failure caused by the incompatible combination of sandalwood and ginseng soup.
Despite not possessing any extraordinary skills, he has practiced medicine for many years and has treated various difficult and complicated diseases.
Yet not a single life was lost because of him.
now……
Although he didn't cause Xue Wanxue's death, she ultimately died because of him.
I didn't kill Bo Ren, but Bo Ren died because of me. This guilt tormented the old barefoot doctor for several months.
After all, he was an elderly person. He was depressed for several months, and then his health collapsed, and he passed away.
Once he died, no one would ever know how he killed Xue Wanxue again.
Overjoyed, Zhang Laowu went to Xue Wanxue's grave on the day of the old barefoot doctor's funeral. With a mix of smugness and a twisted mentality, he boasted to her, "See? Old Agan is dead too, hahaha... Nobody can do anything to me now!"
He was vicious and ruthless, but this was, after all, the first time he had killed someone.
He was anxious about this for several days.
Fearing that the old barefoot doctor might cause trouble, he secretly went to threaten him again.
Today, with the funeral of the old barefoot doctor, no one in the world, except himself, knows this secret anymore.
Old Zhang's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally put back down safely.
But how can we keep such exciting news to ourselves?
Unable to tell anyone else, the psychologically disturbed Zhang Laowu went to Xue Wanxue's grave and boasted about his happy and triumphant mood.
He believed that his boasting was a victory.
In reality, he was nothing but a pathetic wretch.
While Xue Wanxue was alive, Zhang Laowu never had a chance to show off in front of her. He could only boast about his "achievements" to himself in front of her grave after her death.
There weren't many antique jade artifacts left in the cave, but there were still a dozen or so.
Zhang Laowu didn't know the true value of these things, but he knew that when everyone had money in the future, these things would definitely be worth a fortune.
This money is enough for him and his precious son, Da Pangdun, to live a good life in the future.
Touching this antique one moment and hugging that jade piece the next, Zhang Laowu felt that everything he had done in the past was worthwhile. If time could turn back, he would still find a way to kill that bitch Xue Wanxue.
Because she was an unfaithful harlot;
Only when she dies can her dowry truly fall into his hands.
Only if she dies can he turn Zhang Jizhou, this bastard child, into a tool to make money and support himself.
After lingering in the cave for a long time until his mood had completely calmed down, Zhang Laowu quietly made his way down the mountain and home through the winding mountain path.
When he reached the halfway point of the mountain and looked down at the entire Gouzi Village, he suddenly gritted his teeth and cursed, "You bastard! Don't be so smug!"
If behind Fang Yan stood that bastard Zhang Jizhou.
Therefore, it won't be easy to turn that illegitimate child back into your money-making tool.
Zhang Laowu hadn't yet figured out how to improve things and win Zhang Jizhou back over.
However, whether Fang Yan provoked trouble on her own initiative or was forced to, she was always a thorn in Zhang Laowu's side. If he didn't remove this thorn, Zhang Laowu would never be able to eat or sleep peacefully.
And so, an irreconcilable feud was formed.
Fortunately, Fang Yan never had the saintly idea of letting bygones be bygones with a smile when it came to Zhang Laowu's family.
She remained still for the time being, simply following Zhang Jizhou's advice to wait for him to return before settling accounts with Zhang Laowu together.
Speaking of Zhang Jizhou, he and his elite squad have been out of contact for almost half a month now, deep in the remote forests of the southwest.
"Whose idea was it to have them lie in wait in Death Valley?"
At the head of the table, a high-ranking officer who had specially flown from the capital to the command center in the southwest to personally participate in the exercise looked at his subordinates below and asked in a deep voice.
During this exercise, the highest-ranking commander on the Blue Team looked rather grim. "This was a decision made in unison after discussing it with Zhang Jizhou, the captain of the elite squad."
They were in the operations room, in front of a huge sand table, which was made to scale, showing the terrain and landforms of the exercise area.
The Blue Army's supreme commander gestured on the sand table, "We've communicated and simulated with Captain Zhang several times. On the surface, we'll send a regiment here to lure the Red Army's most formidable 107th Regiment..."
The 107th Regiment of the Red Army was so formidable for two reasons: first, its commander was a formidable figure, and second, the regiment possessed exceptional reconnaissance capabilities.
The Blue Army wanted Zhang Jizhou's elite squad to lie in wait in this area and unexpectedly wipe out the 107th Regiment.
At least get rid of the commander of the 107th Regiment, or one of his scouts.
The regimental commander is the soul of the 107th Regiment. Without him, taking down the 107th Regiment would be a piece of cake.
Those top-notch reconnaissance soldiers were the eyes and ears of the 107th Regiment Commander.
Without eyes, the 107th Regiment is just a blind tiger. What's there to be afraid of?
This arrangement was finalized after several discussions between the Blue Team and Zhang Jizhou.
The reason they discussed it repeatedly was simply because it was a risky move.
Zhang Jizhou had to lead his elite squad to lie in ambush in Death Valley in order to catch the 107th Regiment off guard.
