Chapter 479 The man she loved was a beast who didn't deserve to be called human!
However, Munemasa Tomoya is not dead yet.
She weakly opened her eyes and looked at Xie Huaiyuan: "Brother Huaiyuan... please save me... save me..."
She's not dead yet?
Upon closer inspection, Xie Huaiyuan discovered that Zongzheng Zhiyuan was only suspended by her hands; the rope was not around her neck!
Seeing that the person was still alive, Xie Huaiyuan quickly jumped up.
He moved a stool over and lowered Zongzheng Zhiyuan, which was hanging from the eaves, before asking, "What exactly happened?"
"How...how did you end up hanging outside my meditation room?"
Zongzheng Zhiyuan cried, "Brother Huaiyuan, you must believe me, it's Zongzheng Qingyue's ghost...it's definitely her who's come looking for us!"
"She must be here to take revenge on us!"
This time, Xie Huaiyuan did not rush to refute Zongzheng Zhiyuan.
After all, he had personally heard the Guanyin statue speak yesterday.
Could it be that there really are gods and ghosts in this world?
"But so many years have passed... Why, why is Yue'er's vengeful spirit still haunting us?"
Zongzheng Zhiyuan shook Xie Huaiyuan with exasperation: "Brother Huaiyuan, are you still confused?!"
"Who else could it be but her?"
"Besides, she has already harmed so many people, and even wanted to hang me in front of your meditation room. Who else in this world could hate both of us at the same time, except for her?"
"She's deliberately trying to harm us!"
"And even though she's been dead for so many years, her ghost still haunts us. It seems she won't let us go!"
Xie Huaiyuan's face then turned grim: "Let's go! We need to get down the mountain quickly!"
Xie Huaiyuan helped Zongzheng Zhiyuan up and prepared to leave.
Zongzheng Zhiyuan shook her head, crying, "It's too late, Brother Huaiyuan."
“The road down the mountain that we took yesterday suddenly collapsed and was buried, so we can’t go any further.”
Xie Huaiyuan's face grew even paler.
If there really are ghosts, how can all of this be explained?
Those merchants?
No matter how extraordinary their abilities, they absolutely could not have done these things.
Xie Huaiyuan knew that he could not stay here any longer.
Otherwise, it would be their turn.
Remembering there was a small path behind the mountain, he immediately said, "There's another way down the mountain. It's difficult, but if we don't take it now, we might not have another chance."
"Do you want to leave with me?"
Seeing that he didn't abandon her, Zongzheng Zhiyuan was so moved she almost cried.
With her eyes red, how could she possibly refuse?
"I want."
The two quickly ran towards the back of the mountain.
However, Zongzheng Zhiyuan stopped abruptly after running only a few steps.
"Wait, Changning, there's also Changning!"
"Brother Huaiyuan, we can't abandon Changning. She is your only blood relative in this world!"
Xie Huaiyuan: "It's too late!"
"She still has your husband; he will protect her!"
"If you insist on going back, then go back by yourself!"
After saying that, he shoved Zongzheng Zhiyuan away violently.
Zongzheng Zhiyuan's face was filled with disbelief.
Even tigers don't eat their cubs, so is he even human?
"You've always considered Changning a humiliation, haven't you?"
"So even though I bring her along every time, you've never even glanced at her once!"
"You don't care at all whether she's your flesh and blood or not."
"You'd even feel relieved if she died?"
Xie Huaiyuan didn't utter a single word of rebuttal.
He simply called him a 'madman' and strode away.
Zongzheng Zhiyuan did not follow immediately.
She sat on the ground and burst into laughter.
"Haha, hahaha..."
"What kind of beast have I fallen in love with?"
"You beast who doesn't even deserve to be called a human being!"
Sure enough, when it comes to being ruthless and heartless, he could only admit defeat to Xie Huaiyuan.
Zongzheng Zhiyuan slowly got up, but instead of leaving with Xie Huaiyuan, she turned and ran wildly towards the kitchen.
"Changning, Mother is here—"
However, there was no one left in the kitchen of Ningyuan Temple.
On the table were bloody rabbits and pheasants, and wild vegetable soup was bubbling in a pot.
However, the prince consort, Princess Changning, and even the servants who had accompanied them all the way had vanished without a trace.
When she realized that everyone had disappeared again, Zongzheng Zhiyuan was almost driven mad with fear.
She covered her head, turned and ran away, screaming all the way.
Until he crashed headfirst into a wall of flesh.
She fell to the ground with a thud, and when she looked up and saw that Xie Huaiyuan had returned, she immediately grabbed him as if he were a lifeline and threw herself into his arms while crying.
“Brother Huaiyuan, I knew you wouldn’t abandon me.”
"Brother Huaiyuan, Changning... Changning and the Prince Consort are all gone!"
After he finished speaking, the entire Ningyuan Temple fell into a deathly silence.
A flock of crows flew overhead, cawing loudly.
Xie Huaiyuan: "So now, only the two of us are left in the entire Ningyuan Temple."
Zongzheng Zhiyuan: "Yes, what should we do?"
"Brother Huaiyuan, is there anything in the temple that can be used to send messages?"
"For example, carrier pigeons, or fireworks?"
"We need to call for help immediately!"
Xie Huaiyuan frowned and shook his head: "There's nothing there."
Zongzheng Zhiyuan completely gave up: "Then let's... let's leave quickly!"
Although Zongzheng Zhiyuan was heartbroken that Changning was gone, she could only try to save her own life for the time being.
She grabbed Xie Huaiyuan, intending to escape, but Xie Huaiyuan held on tightly.
His expression was icy cold: "We can't leave."
"That winding and rugged mountain road has also been blocked by people."
There was a huge boulder blocking the entrance.
If you try to climb over, you'll fall off the cliff and be smashed to pieces if you're not careful.
Li Qingluo and Duan Rongshi were sitting cross-legged in the open space behind the Guanyin Hall, playing chess.
Over the past year, her chess skills have finally improved somewhat.
Although she was still far from being as good as him, Duan Rongshi continued to teach her with great patience.
Even though he was surrounded and attacked, seeing her successfully capture the pieces, a look of relief appeared in his eyes.
It's as if the precious little grass he saw lying in the mountains has finally blossomed into a rare flower.
Que'er knelt down beside her, brewing tea and serving her.
Zhuiyu rushed over, "Your Highness, Miss, everything is ready."
"We're just waiting for these two dogs to completely go crazy."
After she finished speaking, Que'er handed over a cup of tea the size of a large bowl.
Zhuiyu gulped down the drink in a few mouthfuls, and even Duan Rongshi glanced at her a few times.
Li Qingluo smiled but said nothing, and got up.
"Ah Shi, shall we continue watching the excitement?"
Duan Rongshi threw down the chess piece and picked up the black mask next to him, putting it on his face.
"Just do as you say, young lady."
His joke made Li Qinglu laugh.
She reached out and grabbed him: "Aren't you going to come with me right now?"
