Chapter 545: The Metamorphosis of the Gu King
The woman looked towards the door in horror, then looked at Huo Qinghuang on the screen, and suddenly realized something: "You, you plotted against me!"
Huo Qinghuang shook her head: "You admitted it yourself. You are responsible for your own mistakes. But don't worry, your stepmother can't escape. Even if you want, the will can be ignored."
The woman was stunned.
It took a long while before he burst into tears.
Huo Qinghuang shook her head and disconnected the microphone directly.
The live broadcast room's barrage became active again:
[The master went crazy today]
[This is more exciting than a TV series]
[Sure enough, the life of the rich is not something that ordinary people like us can understand. 】
[Human nature...]
Huo Qinghuang closed her eyes, feeling the power of merit that fell from time to time, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"The tenth winner will be connected to the microphone immediately."
She tapped the stone table and reminded him.
It is not yet evening, so I will try to read ten more hexagrams and earn more merit.
The tenth person who connected to the microphone also quickly connected.
He is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man with the ID “Ordinary Life”.
He was dressed simply and had a nondescript appearance, the type of person who would not even give a second glance if he walked down the street.
"Hello, Master."
His voice was also ordinary. "I want to calculate my future."
Huo Qinghuang stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly narrowed her eyes: "Your future? You have no future."
The man was slightly startled, then he laughed: "Master, are you joking? I'm only in my forties, it's impossible for me to die so early, right?"
Huo Qinghuang sat up straight, leaned back in her chair, and stared at the man calmly.
The gaze that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts made the man lower his head, not daring to look at Huo Qinghuang.
No, it's impossible. He can't have no future at such a young age!
unless……
Not knowing what he was thinking of, the man's pupils suddenly shrank and his heart couldn't help but tighten.
The next moment, Huo Qinghuang spoke slowly.
"Thirty years ago, a certain Xiaocheng in the south, a family of four..."
The man's breathing suddenly became rapid.
"Fire..."
Huo Qinghuang continued, "Only one person survived."
The barrage began to speculate:
[Arson survivor?]
[It looks like there is a story]
[The master's expression is very serious]
Huo Qinghuang suddenly raised her head and looked directly into the man's eyes: "But you are not a survivor, am I right?"
The man's mouth twitched: "What do you mean?"
"That fire," Huo Qinghuang's voice was very soft, but every word was as powerful as a hammer, "you were the one who set it."
The live broadcast room suddenly became eerily quiet.
The man's expression changed.
That ordinary and ordinary temperament fell off like a mask, revealing something cold underneath.
"Where's the evidence?"
He asked softly, with a hint of provocation in his voice.
Huo Qinghuang did not answer directly, but said: "You have a scar on your left shoulder, which was caused by the door frame that day.
Your adoptive father grabbed you at the last moment and tried to rescue you, but you broke free."
The man's hand unconsciously touched his left shoulder, and a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.
"The ghosts of your mother and sister have been following you."
Huo Qinghuang continued, "This is why you can't sleep every night and why you always change cities."
"Shut up!"
The man suddenly got furious and slammed his fist on the table.
"They deserve to die! All of them deserve to die! That man beat my mom and my sister every day, and she was only ten years old! That beast!"
His eyes were bloodshot and his voice was hoarse: "If the law can't help me, I'll do it myself!"
Huo Qinghuang looked at him calmly: "Then why did you burn your mother and sister to death?"
The man froze.
"Because," Huo Qinghuang answered for him, "you heard your mother say that she wanted to take your sister away from that home."
The man's expression collapsed.
He slumped in the chair, holding his head in his hands: "She can't, she can't abandon me! I'm her son too, why would she abandon me and let me live with that devil?!"
"Because you needed a lot of money to go to school at that time, and your mother didn't have the ability to support two children."
"Also because you are a boy, your adoptive father usually pays more attention to you, and he thinks you will not be bullied."
Huo Qinghuang continued, "In fact, you were already fifteen years old at that time, and you were quite strong. If you really resisted, you would not be able to defeat your adoptive father."
"It's just that you chose the wrong way, which is not right, because you are a cold-blooded person, otherwise you wouldn't have killed your own mother and sister."
Huo Qinghuang could not feel the slightest sympathy for such a thing that was worse than pigs and dogs.
The man's expression was completely frozen. He sat in the chair, not knowing what he was thinking.
Huo Qinghuang didn't urge him.
The comments were eerily quiet, as if they were afraid of disturbing something.
After an unknown amount of time, the door was slammed open and several policemen rushed in: "Don't move! Police!"
The man raised his pale face with a look of relief.
Before disconnecting the microphone, Huo Qinghuang saw two dark shadows bow slightly to her, and then turned into black smoke and slowly dissipated.
She looked calm and did not try to stop it.
Although she did not agree with their actions.
After all, the mother and daughter are the man's closest relatives. They have been with him for thirty years, so they feel hatred and sadness.
Now that their souls have dispersed, that is their own choice and no one has the right to interfere.
It was only when the ten hexagrams were calculated that it was getting dark.
Seeing that she had no intention of ending the live broadcast, netizens in the live broadcast room were all looking forward to her continuing the live broadcast.
Huo Qinghuang smiled.
She didn't need to eat now, so she chose to continue calculating ten hexagrams.
"It's still early today, so let's calculate ten more hexagrams and draw a lottery..."
Before he could finish his words, Huo Lingchuan rushed into the courtyard.
"Qing Huang, the Gu King hasn't made any movement today. Can you go and see what's wrong with it?"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and looked at Huo Qinghuang nervously.
The Gu King lay quietly in Huo Lingchuan's hands, motionless.
Huo Qinghuang frowned slightly and poked with a finger.
This golden silkworm Gu King is a treasure that has been cultivated by the Miaojiang Gu Master for many years. It was sent by an envoy before the competition to increase the trump cards for Huo Qinghuang and the others.
But after they returned to their country, Huo Lingchuan had been occupying the Gu King and was reluctant to send him back.
Unexpectedly, as soon as her fingertips touched the Gu King, a faint golden light burst out from the contact point and flowed into the body along her fingers.
She suddenly withdrew her hand, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes: "Golden light of merit?"
Huo Lingchuan looked confused: "What golden light?"
Huo Qinghuang did not answer, but observed the Gu King carefully.
On the originally golden and soft insect body, there were now faint traces of golden lines, like some mysterious runes.
"interesting."
She whispered to herself, "This little thing can actually absorb merit?"
