[Yuan Ying doesn't like me, the person he likes is Lu Zhi]
[I did all this to help Lu Zhi... How ridiculous]
[How could he not know that he has a Gu in his body? He is just lying to me! He doesn't want to touch me, and doesn't want to consummate the marriage with me. If that's the case, don't blame me for being cruel and ruthless!! You all owe me this!]
[Lu Zhi! Lu Zhi! Lu Zhi again! Everyone likes her, so just watch her become food for the poisonous insects and watch her die!!!]
The jealousy and hatred between the lines made Lu Zhi shudder with fear, and at the same time, a strange thought arose in his mind: "Is this really the case?"
The gradually cooling fingertips were wrapped by the man's warm big hands. Lu Zhi came back to her senses and raised her eyes, curling the corners of her lips towards Shen Yuanshuo's worried gaze.
Her feelings towards the entire Lu family were growing weaker and weaker, but what happened between Lu Yue and Shen Yuanying made her sigh.
Although she seemed to be the fuse from the beginning to the end, Lu Zhi did not think she had done anything wrong.
She had no idea of Shen Yuanying's feelings for her, nor did she know the change in Lu Yue's feelings for Shen Yuanying. She had only gone out a few times before getting married, and she felt that Shen Yuanying's love for her was inexplicable and had no basis at all.
From love comes hate.
...
...
[Hahahaha, medicinal food?! How could that be a medicinal food?!]
[Chen Yuanying, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust! After all, this is all owed to me by Lu Zhi! I just happened to fulfill your dream! ]
Seeing this, Lu Zhi's heart skipped a beat.
The fingers that were interlocked with Chen Yuanshuo suddenly curled and tightened.
Sensing her shock, Shen Yuanshuo stood up and walked behind her, his eyes falling on the booklet.
After a moment, he raised the corner of his mouth to sneer: "Useless trash."
The booklet naturally passed to Shen Yuanshuo, while Lu Zhi picked up the thin paper he had been reading earlier.
The content on the paper was even more shocking - it was an evil spell called [Twin Gu, Seeking Eternal Life].
After being nurtured with heart and blood for 9981 days, hundreds of insects are placed in a large feeding box and wait for 77490 days. The insect that finally wins is the Gu King.
Two pairs of Gu were cultivated separately, one pair was Yin and the other pair was Yang.
Yin Gu is fed to women, and Yang Gu is fed to men.
It is best if one of the poisons is a twin, so that the effect can be maximized.
After a man who has taken Yang Gu and a woman who has taken Yin Gu consummated their marriage, they gave birth to a baby pregnant with Zi Gu. If the baby is placed in boiling water and the patient eats its heart containing Zi Gu, the patient will live longer.
If the plan fails, one of the twins will be killed, and one of them, a ghost, will consummate the marriage with the woman who has taken the Yin Gu, causing her to conceive a fetus that is neither human nor ghost.
The Yin Gu will autonomously devour the fetus in the mother's body.
Finally, the mother's heart is taken out, boiled and eaten, and the Yin Gu that eats the fetus is swallowed alive to prolong life.
Lu Zhi was disgusted by the vicious twin Gu. It was hard to imagine how sinister and cruel the creator of the twin Gu was.
But this is a good breakthrough.
Pushing forward one by one, Lu Zhi narrowed his eyes.
Could it be that the ghosts in Mr. Lu and Mr. Shen’s bodies are the ones that want to extend their lifespans?
Are A Niang's abnormal behavior and Mrs. Shen's collapse related to this?
Lu Zhi felt that he had grasped the truth.
"You said that if I confront my mother, will she tell me the truth?" Lu Zhi asked suddenly. Shen Yuanshuo thought about it and shook his head hesitantly.
"She has known about this for many years, but instead of opposing it, she aided and abetted it. I don't think she will regret it no matter how you explain it to her."
Lu Zhi responded softly when he heard this.
The two did not have dinner at Lu's residence, and when the sun set they suggested going back to Shen's residence.
Mrs. Lu did not try to dissuade her further.
The couple watched the carriage go away with cold eyes.
Madam Lu exhaled a breath of hot air, her eyes were shrouded in mist and blurred her vision: "If she finds out, are you going to kill her?"
The questioned Master Lu tore off his expressionless disguise, curled his lips ruthlessly, and exuded an evil aura: "Use Lu Yue to teach her a lesson first. It's not right for a younger sister not to visit her sister."
"You did a great job," he leaned over and patted Mrs. Lu's cheek affectionately, smiling like a kitten, "I'll give you half of my heart this time."
"But we have to start looking for a new container. You definitely don't want to leave me, Rongyue..."
Two figures, one tall and one short, disappeared behind the big red door. The plaque of the Lu Mansion glowed coldly in the cold wind.
**
As soon as Lu Zhi and Shen Yuanshuo returned to the courtyard, the maid and servant led them to Zhiyue Pavilion in a panic.
Lu Yue is dead.
She committed suicide.
Zhiyue Pavilion was crowded with people. When Lu Zhi and Shen Yuanshuo hurriedly arrived, Madam Shen and Mr. Shen were already waiting there.
Mrs. Shen seemed to have cried again, her eyes were swollen as if there were two walnuts hanging under her eyelids.
Seeing Shen Yuanshuo and the other person, a complicated look flashed across her face.
Before Lu Zhi stepped over the threshold, he seemed to catch a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.
Before she could turn her head to see clearly, the figure had disappeared around the corner.
"What's wrong?" Noticing her dazed look, Shen Yuanshuo held her wrist and leaned close to her face and asked softly.
Hearing Lu Zhi's words, he glanced towards the corner of the courtyard without leaving a trace, and raised the corner of his mouth: "We'll know who it is when we get back."
Chen Yuanshuo was confident in his plan, so Lu Zhi said no more.
In the Shen family, it is normal for the young master of the Shen family to have secret guards trained in secret.
The door of the master bedroom in Zhiyue Pavilion was wide open, and from a distance Lu Zhi could see a white shadow hanging on the beam and fluttering in the wind.
The servant who was ordered to fetch the body was standing on a stool trying to pull the white silk hanging from the beam.
As he moved, his pale and purple face slowly turned and looked straight at the people outside the door.
Lu Yue's death was extremely ugly and horrifying. Her eyeballs were bulging out of her eye sockets as if they would pop out of them in the next second. Her eyes were bloodshot, bloodshot eyes were all over her eyes, and tears of blood were faintly flowing from the corners of her eyes.
The long tongue sticking out of the red lips drooped under the chin, and the smile frozen at the corners of his mouth before death stretched to his ears.
The hatred in her eyes was about to turn into reality, and everyone was frightened and dared not look at her, for fear of being entangled by the unclean thing.
Lu Zhi felt the most.
She could feel that Lu Yue's hatred was mainly directed at her.
Chen Yuanshuo thought of what Chen Yuanying had said to him, took a big step forward inconspicuously, and moved sideways to block Lu Zhi.
The two of them did not participate in what happened afterwards.
Just three days after the death of the eldest son Shen Yuanwei, the eldest daughter-in-law Lu Yue hanged herself. Countless shadows loomed over the once bustling Shen Mansion.
Because of Lu Yue's death, Lu Zhi was a little absent-minded when eating. Shen Yuanshuo had no choice but to feed her food with a serving chopstick.
"The one who solves the situation is also the one who sets it up." After swallowing the food in his mouth, Lu Zhi didn't care about eating and sleeping, "Do I have to fight those two hard?"
Seeing that she had no mood or appetite to eat anymore, Shen Yuanshuo put down his serving chopsticks with some regret, ordered people to clear them away, and dismissed the maid.
There were only two of them left outside.
"I always feel that there is something in the study. I will go check it out again tonight." Shen Yuanshuo remembered something and spoke again, "By the way, I asked someone to check the figure you saw."
Lu Zhi looked up at him.
Shen Yuanshuo: "It's from Uncle Zibo."
Shen Zibo.
Lu Zhi was surprised: "Why is he here?"
This is also what Shen Yuanshuo is confused about.
Shen Zibo's courtyard is far away from the main courtyard, and Zhiyue Pavilion is to the south. He would not wander so far away even if he was insane when he had nothing to do.
Either that, someone had deliberately led him there;
Or, he intended to go there.
Shen Yuanshuo began to doubt, is Shen Zibo really as crazy as he thought?
Not necessarily...
