Chapter 37 The Truth
"Aren't you really curious, how did I survive?"

She rolled up the sleeves of the wedding dress that was not suitable for her size, revealing her two slender arms.

The man's heart suddenly trembled, what terrifying two arms are those!

— bony bones, densely covered with wounds, new scars covering old ones, and a huge ugly scar that snaked along her left hand's tiger's mouth and climbed to her elbow.

"How is it? Does it look good?"

Seeing the terrified look of the other party, the girl "giggled" with a wicked look, and then put those hands in front of his eyes.

"This is the bone dry, see?" She pointed to the densely packed wounds on her arm, "This one was cut with a knife, and insects had to be stuffed into human blood to feed; this one was bitten by a snake and a scorpion, a person who practiced Gu It takes more than a month to be soaked in a jar and eaten by the five poisonous things."

She described it lightly, as if she wasn't talking about herself.

The face of the man in front of him, who was almost fifty years old, became paler and paler, and a bit of lifelessness gradually appeared between his brows.

Her blow just now had already sent the poisonous Gu into his body.

"How about this, if you kill that woman with your own hands, I will undo the poisonous Gu for you and this group of people."

Seeing his hesitation, the delicate-looking child burst into a vicious and sharp laugh.

"What? After spending more than years together day and night, you actually have feelings? Hahaha"

In an instant, the "black sheep" surrounded by the chariot went crazy, killing and biting each other.

"roll."

She waved her hand towards the void, and the array woven by thousands of Gu worms immediately dispersed.

The girl grabbed the man by the collar and threw him far away:

"Zishi, if you don't come to see me with that woman's head, the whole Pingzhou will be my "graveyard" for herding sheep. "

The "black sheep" let out abnormal roars, which resounded throughout the sky over Pingzhou.

She turned to face the group of people whose flesh and blood spattered without pain, and caught sight of Li Qianyin's complicated eyes from the corner of her eye.

The red clothes fluttered, and together with all the "black sheep", they were hidden in the insect formation underground.

"All of you, go to hell with me!"

"How is this possible? Back then, I witnessed her being cut open and thrown into a mass grave, and she came back alive!"

Inside the hall, the luxuriously dressed woman was holding a rag covered in blood, her hands trembling extremely violently.

Unfolding the cloth, it was a day more than 20 years ago.

"Is this—brother's birthday?"

Lu Wenyong's second son, Lu Ji, carefully supported his almost crazy mother, raised his face, and looked at the noise at the city gate not far away.

"Her body is a demon, a ghost! She is here to kill me! She is here to lock my life!"

"Bam—"

The door was suddenly opened.

Li Qianyin, together with Li Heyan and the others dragged Lu Wenyong in who was poisoned with poison.

"Little demon girl, you really don't intend to help them?"

Li Heyan tugged on her sleeve in a low voice.

"It's all poor people."

Li Qianyin turned around and found a place to sit down.

He sighed, and took out a few silver needles for Lu Wen to use to stabilize the poison in his body:

"Even if I use the Tiangang needle to control the poisonous Gu, it won't last long. Master Lu, think clearly."

At this moment, the eldest son Lu Ji rushed in, grabbed his father's sleeve and asked in disbelief:
"Father, tell me what's going on! Didn't you say that my mother was weak and died because of dystocia when she gave birth to me? Then who is she?"

"Why was my mother thrown into a mass grave? Why did you just lose your wife and remarry? You knew that woman was the murderer of my mother. Why did you file a case with her and have a child?!"

Lu Wenyong lay paralyzed on the chair, breathed in the thin air with his mouth open, his eyes were dull, as if he had never heard a word from his own son.

"Cough cough."

I don't know how long it took, he breathed out, and grabbed the young man's wrist with his backhand, "I don't need it. Now she is not the same as before. She is so cute."

"Pingzhou?" The young man couldn't laugh or cry, and opened his hand, "Pingzhou? In your eyes, you only have rights? Status? I really didn't expect that my father, who I respected since childhood, would be such a selfish person. ?!"

"Do you know how much I was bullied by that woman openly and secretly because I didn't have a biological mother since I was a child? And you don't know right from wrong, you don't know right from wrong, and you didn't hesitate to sleep with a murderer for more than years just because you were afraid of Liao Dan's power! "

"Then the new king of Liao Dan asked you to surrender today, why didn't you obey? You have been living in Liao Dan for so many years, why did you talk about the righteousness of your family and country today? Is it because you are afraid of the power of King Yi and Qianji Pavilion?"

"Father, the way you look now makes me sick."

He drew back, anger, disappointment and contempt mixed in his eyes.

He still didn't dare to imagine the scene where the girl in red strangled the Pingzhou soldiers to kill each other.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed that his mother had turned into this appearance.

For more than 20 years, I thought I had forgotten it, but when someone mercilessly questioned me face to face again, Lu Wen trembled in bewilderment, shrinking back and forth into the depths of the chair:

"No, it's not. Back then, Pingzhou was destroyed. If I didn't do it, King Liao Dan would kill all the people in Pingzhou."

He took a deep breath, closed his eyes dejectedly, and continued intermittently:
"If it really comes to this point, then your mother won't be able to survive."

"Besides, you said that being a father is selfish and demeaning righteousness. You keep saying that it is not your own benefit to be humiliated because you don't have a biological mother. Have you ever thought about how the people in this city should live?"

After talking for a while, Lu Wen's performance improved a little bit, and his speech became smoother.

"That day, when I went back, what I saw was a doomed coffin and an infant child."

Thinking of the past, I can't help but feel like a knife is twisting my heart.

"The people from Liaodan clearly told me that your mother chose to hang herself when she heard the bad news. They failed to save you, but only snatched the premature child. I really didn't know that she would be thrown into that kind of place .”

After a long silence, he braced his body and bowed to Li Heyan:
"His Royal Highness, please help me to strangle that demon."

"Father!"

"He's not your mother anymore!" Lu Wen clenched his fists tightly, the blackened blood vessels on his neck were extremely ferocious, "Your mother died more than 20 years ago!"

"Why? She just wants to wait for you to go back. What did she do wrong?"

"She's right," the man seemed to have aged dozens of years. "In troubled times, people fight for their own interests, regardless of future troubles. I was wrong, it's the wrong way of the world."

"Do you think it's as simple as she just wants my life and your stepmother's life? If that's the case, then there's no need to think about it. She made a deal with the Emperor of the Central Plains, so that the entire Pingzhou City will be buried with her back then!"

"The Seventh Master and the Eighth Master are still on their way back to the city. If they are there, it will not be a problem." Li Heyan glanced at the girl who had been silent all this time, "It's just——Lord Lu really decided?"

"Compared with all the people in the world, personal likes and dislikes are insignificant."

The man said lightly.
