Chapter 53: Tangli's Death What a fool, even though they are thousands of miles apart...

Human pig, the hands and feet are cut off at the knees and elbows, so that the tortured person's limbs look like pig's trotters.

Gouge out their eyes to make them blind; pour copper into their ears to make them deaf; and give them a mute potion to make them lose their voice.

Finally thrown into the toilet, it becomes a human pig.

Luo Wan said coldly: "Do you know the appearance and age of those maids?"

Ah Qing said, "Of course I know! Isn't that what I do? There's very little that can escape my ears in the corners of the capital. Speaking of that day..."

Luo Wan interrupted: "Speak to the point."

Ah Qing said, "One is about fifteen or sixteen, with a delicate appearance. The other is about thirty, with a gorgeous appearance."

"And finally?"

"Finally? Thrown into a mass grave, right?"

Neither the pear tree nor the platycodon grandiflorum was spared.

Chi Mingshi really hated her so much that he traveled thousands of miles to find Tangli. It was likely that Tangli and Kikyo had suffered more than just the punishment of being turned into human pigs.

She sat still, clenching the chopsticks in her hand. The next second, the chopsticks broke into four pieces between her fingers.

Ah Qing was stunned. He didn't expect her to react so strongly. He asked tentatively, "Original Poster, what's wrong?"

Luo Wan threw the chopsticks onto the table. The porcelain bowl made a crisp sound under the violent impact with the chopsticks, and broke into pieces in an instant, with broken porcelain flying all around!

Aqing was shocked. Before he could react, Luo Wan had already stood up and left.

The long street was dark, the moonlight was dim, and the whole street was covered with a depressing gray.

Occasionally, a pedestrian would hurried by, hearing the sounds of fighting in the alley, and would immediately quicken their pace, lower their heads, and detour, fearing that they would get into trouble. The patrolling guards were even more lazy late at night, otherwise Chi Mingshi would have bullied a little girl for so long without anyone noticing.

The guards of the Gu Mansion had already been knocked down by Shuo Qiu, lying in a mess in the corner, unable to move for a while.

In addition to the long sword, Luo Wan is best at using the spinning scimitar. The blade can be thrown out and then returned steadily to the palm of his hand.

When they were about ten feet away from the carriage, Luo Wan flipped his wrist and the scimitar suddenly flew out of his hand, drawing a sharp arc of light and circling the carriage. The moment the blade returned, the roof of the carriage flew off with a loud bang, and wood chips flew everywhere!

The woman in the car screamed in fear and huddled into a ball.

Luo Wan steadily caught the scimitar that flew back, and said indifferently: "No need to scare me."

"What do you mean by this, OP?" Shuo Qiu was puzzled. He turned to look at A Qing who was covering his face behind Luo Wan, but saw that the other's eyebrows were twitching wildly, and he didn't know what he was hinting at.

Luo Wan slowly raised his eyes, his voice light and cold: "Drag him directly to the mass grave."

Chi Mingshi's first reaction after hearing Luo Wan's voice was to jump up in surprise. The moment she saw Luo Wan's face clearly, her expression suddenly changed. She pointed at her and shouted, "It's you! How dare you come back!?"

In comparison, Luo Wan was unusually calm at the moment: "Still standing there in a daze?"

Mass grave.

The night was filled with fog, and the stench of decay mixed with the smell of blood filled the air. Mutilated corpses were scattered on the ground, some of which had rotted to the bones, while others still had flesh and blood, and maggots were wriggling in their empty eye sockets.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

Chi Mingshi had her hands tied behind her back by Shuo Qiu. She struggled desperately, but under the absolute suppression of power, she was like a trapped beast, and her efforts were in vain.

Luo Wan glanced at her and said to Shuo Qiu, "Let her go."

Without her shackles, Chi Mingshi immediately pounced on Luo Wan like a mad beast. Ah Qing was quick-witted and kicked her in the knee. Chi Mingshi staggered and fell to her knees, her knees sinking into the mud.

"Do you know why I brought you here?" Luo Wan asked.

Chi Mingshi looked up and suddenly burst into a giggle, which was particularly creepy in the dead silence of the mass grave: "I know, this is the burial place of your two slaves."

Shuo Qiu and A Qing were both stunned when they heard this, but they didn't dare to say anything and just stood aside silently.

"Oh, that's not right." Chi Mingshi tilted her head, pretending to be suddenly enlightened. "This is only the burial place for half of their bones! Where is the other half? Can you guess? Hahaha! In the pig's stomach! I chopped off their limbs and threw them into the pigpen like garbage, leaving them to stay with those dirty and smelly beasts! Guess what? They watched helplessly! Watching those filthy pigs gnaw on their own broken limbs, bite by bite! The crunching sound! Listening to their desperate whimpers, it's a pity that you couldn't hear them."

Luo Wan closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were as calm as a lake. She slowly squatted down and looked Chi Mingshi in the eye: "The only wrong thing I did in the capital was letting you go."

She originally thought that Chi Mingshi was spoiled and had developed a spoiled and overbearing personality.

"Feeling badly? What were you doing before? I thought you would show up once I captured your two maids." Chi Mingshi laughed strangely again, "So I tortured them for days, waited for you for days, until their wounds festered and the stench filled the air, until even I felt sick, and you didn't come back! Admit it, you didn't take their lives seriously at all!"

Luo Wan reached out and pinched her chin: "How could such a pretty face do such a vicious thing?"

Chi Mingshi said, "No matter how vicious I am, I'm not even a ten-thousandth as vicious as you! You impersonated Chi Wanwan and caused my family to be destroyed. I'm doing all this just to pay you back! This is retribution for what you've done. They all died because of you! You're the real culprit."

Luo Wan released her hand and slowly stood up. "You don't seem to understand that your parents died because of their own sins. I only presented evidence. It was the laws of the Northern Kingdom that sentenced them to death. Perhaps you should hate your parents more. If it weren't for them, you wouldn't have fallen to this point. You would still be the carefree Third Young Lady."

"Stop pretending!" Chi Mingshi said sternly. "There are countless corrupt officials in this world! If you are as righteous as you say, why don't you bring all of them to justice? Why, why only my parents?"

Luo Wan lowered her eyes and looked at her: "Because your mother killed Ye. Compared to your mother, you are really stupid. She still knew how to kill with a borrowed knife, but you are so stupid that you wish the whole world knew that you killed these people, waiting for me to seek revenge."

Chi Mingshi glared at Luo Wan. "Of course I'm not as good as you. You've been so deliberate and scheming that Pei Shaochuan fought Gu Sihan for you, Shen Zhiyan made an exception and accepted you as his student, and Jiang Cichen was even willing to let you go! Which of them wasn't completely fooled by you?"

Luo Wan ignored her roar and turned to Shuo Qiu and said, "I remember Miss Chi loved playing the piano the most."

Chi Mingshi's voice dropped: "What do you want to do?"

Luo Wan said: "I wanted to give you a quick death, but I also felt that it would be unfair to Tangli and Kikyo."

Chi Mingshi was horrified: "If you kill me, Gu will not let you go!"

"Then let's try." Luo Wan's voice was particularly gentle: "Chop off Miss Chi's ten fingers one by one and throw them here. Let her repent day and night in front of the ghosts of Tangli and Kikyo."

Shuo Qiu immediately understood and stepped forward with his knife in hand: "I understand."

Chi Mingshi struggled frantically. A year ago, she ended up in a brothel. Every time she came into contact with those smelly men, she would feel so sick that she couldn't sleep for days and nights.

She met Gu Sihan by chance and begged him to save her from suffering for the sake of their past relationship. Gu Sihan, wanting to show the Gu family's preferential treatment of former retainers and thus win over more entrenched followers, naturally agreed to Chi Mingshi's request.

Outsiders only thought that she was Gu Sihan's domineering and favored concubine, but no one knew that her husband had never truly shown any love for her.

Chi Mingshi angrily said, "Even if I go to hell and thousands of ghosts devour my soul, I will drag you with me!"

Luo Wan said calmly, "I'm sorry that I can't do as you wish. You will die tonight, but I will still be thriving."

Chi Mingshi's screams exploded behind him: "Why? Why can someone like you do so many bad things and still be alive? Why!?"

Luo Wan smiled faintly: "I am a bad person, so it is natural for me to do bad things."

After earth-shaking cries and blood splattering everywhere, the mass grave finally became quiet.

Luo Wan looked up at the mass grave strewn with corpses. The moonlight cast her slender shadow on the corpses.

Tangli, who always loved to tend to flowers and plants, was actually one of the thousands of corpses.

After a long silence, she didn't know who she was talking to, but she just whispered, "She said she wanted to guard Chi Wanwan's grave, but she doesn't even have a tombstone herself."

At the age of fifteen, Tangli is so young.

What a fool, he can be found even though he is thousands of miles away.

Ah Qing clenched his fists, his Adam's apple bouncing. A clever man, he pieced together the truth from the fragments of information: the mysterious Chi Wanwan was the person before him in disguise.

Previously, she had sworn that she didn't understand the capital and that she and Jiang Cichen were in love. Now looking back, it seemed so stupid.

"OP..." He opened his mouth, but didn't know how to comfort her.

Luo Wan suddenly turned around: "Did I scare you?"

Ah Qing was flattered. Why was it the owner of the building who came to comfort him? He hurriedly shook his head: "How can a warrior from Tingyu Tower not see blood and gore?"

Luo Wan said, "I hate blood."

After seeing Mrs. Shen's portrait in the Shen Mansion that day, Luo Wan thought that God gave her a chance to live again, perhaps to let her wash away the blood on her hands and live a different life.

She gave in step by step, but fate kept pressing in. Whether it was what she wanted to protect or what she wanted to stay away from, it eventually turned into a sword, forcing her back to her original path.

In the midst of light and darkness, she was ultimately no match for the fickle hand of fate; her struggle seemed so small and insignificant.

No one had ever taught her how to live her life, and every step was so unsatisfactory.

Aqing stared at her profile, remembering what Shuo Qiu once said: A soft-hearted person cannot become a OP.

He had indeed seen it just now.

But he felt that this woman who killed people without blinking an eye was now indescribably tired.

Ah Qing said, "Master, you are not wrong in this matter. Gu Sihan's concubine is not an innocent person. If we can't sort out the grievances, we just want to have a clear conscience."

Luo Wan's eyes flickered. "I never regret anything I've done. There's no absolute justice or right or wrong in this world. Everyone acts from their own perspective. History is written by the victors. If a rebel wins a territorial dispute, they'll be hailed as a heroic rebel."

She had a clear conscience, she just felt regretful that she had not protected Tangli well.

Ah Qing said, "You are right, OP. We can live the way we want. Screw the right and wrong!"

As Ah Qing was speaking, he was slapped on the back of his head.

Shuo Qiu returned after disposing of Chi Mingshi's body. "Are you spouting off those big truths you heard from the storyteller again?"

Ah Qing made a face at Shuo Qiu: "Lilululu."

Luo Wan said to Shuo Qiu, "After I leave, you must continue to pay attention to the Shen Mansion. If there is any movement or Jiang Cichen's whereabouts, notify me immediately."
