Chapter 415 Suicide! Luo'er's Gu Poison is Cured!
She had eight teeth extracted at once.
If it weren't for Qin Ling's strange yet highly skilled medical techniques, he probably wouldn't have survived at all.
Even though she now has the face of Zhan Ku Lian Qiao, Jin Hua wouldn't recognize her at all, given her ghostly appearance.
But as soon as she opened her mouth, Jinhua confirmed it.
This person is indeed none other than Zulya.
Zuliya's entire mouth was swollen and bleeding, and now he has difficulty speaking.
But despite her stuttering, she still spoke quickly: "Jinhua, don't forget! You are also a person of the Great Chu!"
"How can you, a member of the Witch Moon Sect, work for the people of Great Liang?"
Jin Hua: "Then what does it mean that you, a person from the Western Regions, are working for the King of Qin in the Great Chu?"
Zuliya couldn't help but burst into wild laughter: "People die for wealth, birds die for food."
"Jinhua, you claim to be the most authentic successor of the Miao people, but it turns out you would also leave the mountains for greed and do these things that are beyond your bounds!"
"Be careful, the seeds you sow today will one day bear fruit on you that the Witch Moon Cult cannot bear!"
Jin Hua: "I, Jin Hua, have never acted with a guilty conscience."
"If you're trying to scare me, you should first take a look at yourself!"
Jin Hua was unaware that Zuliya could transfer souls.
Otherwise, I would have given her an even more severe dressing-down.
Zuliya's face grew paler and paler.
She looked anxiously at the butterfly, her expression no longer calm and composed.
"Release her."
"Any retaliation should come at me—"
"She's innocent! Get her out of here!"
Li Qingluo: "Zuliya, what are you pretending to be a good person for now?"
"All of this is the result of your own evil deeds."
"You haven't just remembered now what your relationship with her is, have you?"
Li Qingluo pushed the butterfly in front of Zuliya.
"Take a good look at her."
"Don't her eyes look like Zaina's?"
Perhaps thinking of the moments when he and Zaina depended on each other for survival, Zulia finally broke down.
"No!"
"No—!"
"She is innocent."
"Li Qingluo, every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. You cannot make her suffer the consequences of the sins that I and her mother committed!"
Li Qinglu grabbed Zuliya's nearly bald hair and said, "You are the least qualified animal in the world to say that!"
After saying that, she pushed Zulia to the ground.
Under Jin Hua's signaling gaze, Li Qingluo drew her dagger.
She looked at the cold glint of the blade, then at the butterfly, but couldn't bring herself to do it.
If it were just her, she would be willing to endure until the very end, until she could no longer bear it and then pass away.
But the screams from down the mountain still echoed in my ears.
Li Qingluo looked at Duan Rongshi.
Duan Rongshi simply gazed at her quietly.
Let her make her own decision.
Since her rebirth, Li Qingluo had never been so indecisive.
She just couldn't bring herself to do it.
Until the butterfly came over on its own, she shook her head vigorously and cried out.
"You have something to say?"
The butterfly nodded repeatedly, tears welling in its eyes.
Without hesitation, Li Qingluo removed the cloth from her mouth.
Li Qingluo thought she was scared, so she gently patted her: "Don't be afraid. At worst, I'll go and capture all the most heinous death row inmates in the prison first."
There must be another way.
"I promised your mother I would keep you alive, there must be another way!"
She couldn't sacrifice the butterfly so hastily.
Without trying any other methods, they want to sacrifice her to others.
Their lives matter.
But her fate was also fate.
But the butterfly, with tears in her eyes, smiled slightly and said, "Luo'er, I am your aunt."
"I understand everything you're saying..."
"I'm so damn stupid."
Li Qingluo, along with everyone else present, stared at her in shock.
She can speak so fluently now?
It seems that during the days she was in a coma due to the torment of illness, she learned something in her dreams.
Where is that innocent look from before?
The butterfly, who had just emerged from the Pei family dungeon, was like a child who had never been to the outside world.
It can chase butterflies.
It can smell flowers.
They express their preferences through gestures and movements.
But her happy days didn't last long at all.
Everyone was afraid of her having an attack.
He also loathed her ugly appearance.
Only in the Xiuli General's mansion did every maid and nanny treat her with the utmost gentleness, making her feel the warmth of the sun for the first time.
Before Li Qingluo could even process the shock of realizing that she understood everything, Butterfly had already come over with her bound hands, grabbed the hand holding the dagger, and viciously stabbed herself in the stomach.
"Butterfly!"
Li Qingluo cried out in surprise and tried to let go.
However, the butterfly held her hand tightly and refused to let go, and continued to stir it inside.
Soon, blood began to trickle from the corner of her mouth, and her face was contorted in pain.
"No—" Li Qingluo hugged the butterfly, tears streaming down her face instantly.
She knelt on the ground, holding the butterfly, and the butterfly slowly revealed a smile.
"The sins my parents committed..."
"I'll pay for it..."
"Consider it repayment for...the kindness of giving me life and raising me..."
"Luo'er, thank you..."
"I am already very content..."
"No more people should die innocently because of the sins my parents committed..."
"Including you..."
"I'm sorry you've suffered, my child."
Compared to the humiliation and pain she endured since childhood.
This dagger is nothing now.
It's not as painful as peeling skin.
It's nothing compared to the pain of getting a tooth pulled.
There was no long loneliness, no countless years, no speechlessness, no pain of being alone with anyone.
She knew she was a monster.
A monster that the Pei family has been keeping in the dungeon.
Now it's all right.
She was free.
In her next life, she just wants to be a simple, normal person.
Heavens above, I beg you.
She closed her eyes, her face filled with anticipation.
Li Qingluo clutched the butterfly and cried out in anguish, "Butterfly—!!"
However, as the butterfly breathed its last, Li Qingluo coughed up a mouthful of black blood with a "whoosh".
Zuliya and Zongzheng Yuer also reacted quickly.
Zongzheng Yu'er only coughed up a trace of blood.
In his agony, Zuliya vomited more than a dozen mouthfuls of black blood.
She lay on the ground, gazing helplessly in this direction.
"Silly child, butterfly..."
"It's my fault—it's my fault!"
"It was my fault... I was wrong, Auntie was really wrong!"
She cried out in pain and collapsed to the ground.
However, Li Qingluo knew.
Does she really know she was wrong?
That's not necessarily true.
If given the chance, Zulya would undoubtedly still target the butterfly treasure for his own benefit.
This time, she will only do better and be even more meticulous, and will never allow herself to be easily exposed or fall into their hands again.
Li Qingluo gently wiped the bloodstains from the corner of her mouth with the back of her hand.
Holding the butterfly, I listened as the screams from below the mountain grew fainter and fainter.
Soon, the screams disappeared completely, replaced by the cries of the people waking up from their nightmare.
Li Qinglu stared blankly down the mountain.
She reached out and looked at her bloodied hand.
She felt as if she were having a grand dream.
Why did the people around her leave her one by one?
Sui'er, Granny Deng, Butterfly.
Why can't I keep them?
In that instant, her mind was filled with their voices, faces, and smiles.
This caused Li Qingluo's head to ache as if it were about to split open.
Duan Rongshi knelt down behind Li Qingluo and gently put his arm around her shoulder: "Luo'er, it's over."
"This outcome was inevitable."
"Give her a proper burial."
Li Qing replied in a hoarse, low voice, "Okay."
However, just as she was about to stand up in a daze, she stumbled, her vision went black, and she fainted.
Duan Rongshi called out softly, "Luo'er!"
He caught her as she slid down, and seeing that Zongzheng Yu'er had also fainted, he realized that it wasn't just a coincidence that Li Qingluo had fainted.
Jin Hua came over: "I'm afraid we'll have to sleep for a whole day and night."
When Li Qingluo woke up, she had already returned to General Xiuli's mansion.
Que'er and Cui'er ran off to deliver the news with joy. Li Qingluo got up and went to the bronze mirror first, taking off the clothes from her shoulders.
The butterfly behind my shoulder has become faintly blurry.
It's like a pink mark that can't be erased.
Jin Hua came in: "We must use a knife to remove the corpse of the Gu worm."
"Otherwise, it will always be a hidden danger."
Li Qingluo quickly stood up: "I am very grateful for your help this time, senior."
Jin Hua shook her head: "No need to thank me. This trouble was caused by our Miao region, and it is only right that we Miao people should clean it up and resolve it. However, there is something strange about you."
"Is Miss Li aware of her own situation?"
Li Qingluo: "?"
Seeing her puzzled expression, Jin Hua said, "Do you know that you slept for three days and three nights?"
“Even Zulya woke up after just one night.”
Li Qingluo was surprised: "Me, three days and three nights?"
She thought about how she would fall into a deep sleep after drinking, or rather... become unconscious.
But I've never slept for so long before.
And this time, no alcohol was consumed either.
Just then, Madam Pei arrived in a hurry, accompanied by others.
"Luo'er—"
While the grandmother and granddaughter exchanged pleasantries, Jinhua had already quietly left.
Madam Pei touched Li Qingluo's little hand, and the grandmother and granddaughter poured out their hearts to each other once again.
And soon on, the story turned to the death of the butterfly.
"Grandmother, I'm sorry to her."
Madam Pei sighed, "She knows in her heart that she's acting for the greater good. It was her own choice, so how can you be blamed?"
"She did better than her parents. In a way, she atoneed for her parents' sins."
"Luo'er, Grandmother has already buried her next to her parents' graves, which can be considered as reuniting the family of three."
Li Qingluo still felt a deep sense of guilt towards Butterfly and even Zaina.
Not knowing what to say, she turned to ask, "By the way, has anything happened in these past three days?"
Madam Pei's expression instantly became somewhat complicated and troubled.
Li Qingluo's heart skipped a beat: "What's wrong, Grandmother?"
Please don't hide it from me!
Madam Pei knew that she could find out these things by asking around, so she stopped hiding them from her.
"First of all, that Zulya is dead."
"I heard that after waking up in the stone cell, he swallowed a bellyful of stones and died from the pain."
"Secondly, Luo'er, your mother, Madam Qu, was unexpectedly stolen by them."
Li Qingluo has not heard from the Qu family for a long time.
When she heard about her again, she felt a sense of disorientation.
"Grandmother, what do you mean she was stolen?"
Madam Pei had no choice but to look at Que'er: "Go and call Sha Yi over to give the young lady a reply."
Que'er hurriedly turned around to find Sha Yi, but Li Qingluo had already vaguely guessed what was going on.
Sure enough, when the people from Prince Su's mansion went to the prison to smuggle death row inmates, they also stole Qu Shi, a death row inmate sentenced to death in the autumn.
When they were about to throw him into Wanjiacun, Zhuiyu recognized him.
"Heavens. Even if she does deserve to die, she is still the young lady's daughter... Whether she can die like this is something we should ask the young lady."
But they couldn't send him back to the prison.
They were temporarily detained.
After figuring out the whole story, Sha Yi asked, "Miss, the Prince Su's mansion is asking how to handle this matter, and they need your opinion."
"You can decide on this matter."
