She had eight teeth extracted at once.

If Qin Ling's medical skills were not so strange and advanced, he would not have survived.

And with her horrible appearance, even if she was now the face of Ku Lianqiao, Jin Huan would not be able to recognize her at all.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, Jinhuan confirmed it.

This person is undoubtedly Zulia.

Zuliya's entire mouth was swollen and now it was difficult for her to speak.

She stumbled, but still spoke very quickly: "Jinhua, don't forget! You are also from Da Chu!"

"How can you, a member of the Wuyue Cult, work for the people of Daliang?"

Jinhuan: "Then what does it mean that you are still from the Western Regions, but you are working for the King of Qin in Great Chu?"

Zuliya couldn't help laughing wildly: "People die for money, birds die for food."

"Jinhuan, you claim to be the most orthodox descendant of the Miao people, but it turns out you would leave the mountains for greed and do things beyond your duty!"

"Be careful, the seeds you sow today will one day bear evil consequences on you that the Wuyue Cult cannot bear!"

Jinhuan: "I, Jinhuan, always do things with a clear conscience."

"You want to scare me? Why don't you just look at yourself first?"

Jinhuan didn't know that Zulia could transfer souls.

Otherwise, she would be scolded even more harshly.

Zulia's face turned paler and paler.

She looked at Butterfly anxiously, her expression no longer calm.

"You let her go."

"Any revenge against me will be—"

"She's innocent! Take her away from here—"

Li Qingluo: "Zuliya, why are you pretending to be a good person now?"

"All of this is the result of your evil deeds."

"You're not just remembering now what your relationship is with her, are you?"

Li Qingluo pushed the butterfly in front of Zulia.

"Take a good look at her."

"Do her eyes look like Zaina's?"

Perhaps thinking of the times when she and Zaina depended on each other, Zulia's emotions finally broke down.

"No!"

“No—!”

"She is innocent."

"Li Qingluo, every wrong has its perpetrator, you can't bring retribution on her for the evil that her mother and I did!"

Li Qingluo grabbed Zuliya's hair, which was almost falling out, and said, "You are the most unqualified beast in the world to say such a thing!"

After saying that, she pushed Zulia to the ground.

At Jinhuan's signaling gaze, Li Qingluo drew out the dagger.

She looked at the cold light on the blade, then looked at the butterfly, but she couldn't bring herself to do it.

If it was just her, she would be willing to endure until the end, until she could no longer bear it.

But the screams from the foot of the mountain still kept ringing in my ears.

Li Qingluo looked at Duan Rongshi.

Duan Rongshi just looked at her quietly.

Wait for her to make her own decision.

And Li Qingluo has never been so indecisive since his rebirth.

She still couldn't bring herself to do it.

Until the butterfly came over by itself, she shook her head vigorously and cried "Woo woo".

"You have something to say?"

Butterfly nodded continuously with tears in her eyes.

Li Qingluo took the cloth out of her mouth without hesitation.

Li Qingluo thought she was afraid, so he patted her gently and said, "Don't be afraid. At worst, I can go and capture all the death row prisoners in the Sky Prison who have committed heinous crimes."

"There must be another way."

"I promised your mother that I would keep you alive. There must be another way!"

She couldn't sacrifice the butterfly so hastily.

Without trying any other methods, he wanted to use her as a sacrifice for someone else's life.

Their lives are their lives.

But her life is also her life.

However, Butterfly smiled slightly with tears in her eyes: "Luo'er. I am your aunt."

"I understand what you said..."

"I deserve to die."

Li Qingluo and everyone else present looked at her in shock.

She speaks so fluently?

It seemed as if she had learned something in her dreams during these days when she was comatose due to illness.

Where is the ignorant look from before?

Butterfly, who had just emerged from the Pei family dungeon, was like a child who had never been to the outside world.

Can chase butterflies.

Can smell flowers.

They will express their preferences by dancing and gesticulating.

But her happy days didn't last long.

Everyone was afraid of her when she got sick.

I also hate her ugly appearance.

Only in General Xiuli's mansion, every maid and nanny treated her with utmost tenderness, making her feel the warmth of the sun as if it were the first time.

Before Li Qingluo could recover from the shock of understanding everything, Butterfly came over with her bound hands, grabbed her hand holding the dagger, and stabbed herself in the stomach.

"Butterfly!"

Li Qingluo screamed and tried to let go.

However, Butterfly held her hand tightly and refused to let go, continuing to stir it inside.

Soon, blood began to flow from the corners of her mouth and her face was full of pain.

"No——" Li Qingluo hugged Butterfly and burst into tears instantly.

She knelt on the ground holding the butterfly, and the butterfly slowly smiled.

"My parents... did evil..."

"Let me pay it back..."

"Just consider it as repaying them... for giving me life and raising me..."

"Luo'er, thank you..."

"I'm already very content..."

"I can't let any more people die innocently because of my parents' sins..."

"including you……"

"I'm sorry for the trouble, kid."

Compared to the humiliation and pain that freedom endures.

Now this dagger is really nothing.

It's not as painful as skin peeling off.

It's not as painful as having a tooth pulled.

There is no endless loneliness, no countless years, no words, and no pain of having no living people by your side.

She knew she was a monster.

A monster that has been kept in the dungeon by the Pei family.

it's good now.

She was relieved.

In her next life, she just wants to be a simple and normal person.

God, please.

She closed her eyes, her face full of anticipation.

Li Qingluo hugged Butterfly and screamed in pain: "Butterfly——!!"

However, as the butterfly breathing completely stopped, Li Qingluo spat out a mouthful of black blood with a "wow".

Zuliya and Zong Zheng Yuer also responded quickly.

Zong Zheng Yu'er only spat out a trace of blood.

Zuliya, in pain, vomited more than a dozen mouthfuls of black blood.

She lay on the ground, looking over here weakly.

"Silly butterfly child..."

"I have done you harm—I have done you harm!"

"It's me... I was wrong, Auntie was really wrong!"

She screamed in pain and fainted on the ground.

However, Li Qingluo knew.

Does she really know she is wrong?

Not necessarily.

If it happens again, Zulia will definitely take action against the butterfly treasure for her own benefit.

But this time, she would do better and more flawlessly, and would never allow herself to be easily exposed or fall into their hands again.

Li Qingluo gently wiped the bloodstains at the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand.

Holding Butterfly, I listened to the screams from the bottom of the mountain becoming softer and softer.

Soon, the screams disappeared completely, replaced by the cries of the people who had just woken up from their dreams.

Li Qingluo looked down the mountain in a daze.

She reached up and looked at her bloody hand.

She just felt like she was having a big dream.

Why did the people around her leave her one after another?

Sui'er, Aunt Deng, and Butterfly.

Why can't I keep them?

At this moment, her mind was filled with their voices, faces and smiles.

Li Qingluo felt such a pain in his head that it felt like it was about to split.

Duan Rongshi squatted down behind Li Qingluo and gently put his arm around her shoulders: "Luo'er, it's over."

"This ending is inevitable."

"Give her a proper burial."

Li Qingluo replied in a low voice, "Okay."

However, just as she was about to stand up, she stumbled and passed out.

Duan Rongshi called out softly, "Luo'er!"

He hugged her body just in time as she was sliding down, and looked at Zong Zheng Yu'er who had also fainted. Only then did he realize that it was not Li Qingluo's accident.

Jin Huan came over and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to sleep for a whole day and night."

One day later.

When Li Qingluo woke up, he had already returned to General Xiuli's mansion.

Que'er and Cui'er ran to report the news happily. Li Qingluo stood up and walked to the bronze mirror first, taking off the clothes on his shoulders.

The butterfly behind my shoulder has already faintly turned into a butterfly.

It was like leaving an indelible pink mark.

Jin Huan came in and said, "We must use a knife to remove the body of the sub-insect."

"Otherwise, it will always be a hidden danger."

Li Qingluo quickly stood up and said, "Thank you for your help this time."

Jin Huan shook her head. "No need to thank me. This is trouble caused by our Miao people. It should be cleared up and resolved by the people of Miao. However, there is something strange about you."

"Miss Li, are you aware of your situation?"

Li Qingluo: “?”

Seeing her puzzled expression, Jin Hua said, "Do you know that you slept for three days and three nights?"

“Even Zulia woke up after just one night.”

Li Qingluo was surprised: "Me, three days and three nights?"

She thought about how she would always fall into a deep sleep after drinking, or rather... fall into a coma.

But I have never slept for so long.

And this time, I didn't drink any alcohol.

At this moment, Mrs. Pei also hurried over accompanied by everyone.

"Luo'er——"

While the grandparents and grandchildren were greeting each other, Jinhuan had already quietly left.

Mrs. Pei touched Li Qingluo's little hand, and the grandmother and granddaughter talked to each other from the heart again.

And soon talked about the butterfly's death.

"Grandma, I'm sorry for her."

Madam Pei sighed, "She knows in her heart that she's doing this for the greater good. It's her own choice, how can she blame you?"

"She did better than her parents did. It can be considered as atonement for her parents' sins."

"Luo'er, grandma has buried her next to her parents' graves, which can be considered a reunion for the three of them."

Li Qingluo still felt deeply guilty towards Butterfly and even Zaina.

She didn't know what to say, so she turned around and asked, "By the way, has anything happened in the past three days?"

Mrs. Pei's expression suddenly became complicated and embarrassed.

Li Qingluo's heart skipped a beat: "What's wrong, Grandma?"

"Please don't hide it from me!"

Mrs. Pei knew that she could find out these things by asking on her own, so she did not hide it anymore.

"First of all, that Zulia is dead."

"I heard that he woke up in the stone prison and swallowed a stomach full of stones, and died from the pain."

"Secondly, Luo'er, your mother, Qu, was accidentally stolen by them."

Li Qingluo hasn't heard from Qu for a long time.

When she heard her story again, she actually felt dazed.

"Grandma, what was stolen from her?"

Madam Pei had no choice but to look at Que'er and said, "Go and call Sha Yi over to tell the young lady."

Que'er hurriedly turned around to look for Shayi, but Li Qingluo had already vaguely guessed it.

Sure enough, when the people from Prince Su's Mansion went to the Heavenly Prison to take out the death row prisoners, they also stole out Qu, the death row prisoner who was sentenced to be executed in the autumn.

When he was about to be thrown into Wanjia Village, he was recognized by Zhuiyu.

"God. Even if she really deserves to die, it's the girl's...I still have to ask the girl whether she can die like this."

But she couldn't be sent back to the prison.

He was temporarily detained.

After figuring out the whole story, Sha Yi asked, "Miss, Prince Su's Mansion wants to know how to deal with this matter. I need your opinion."

"It's up to you to decide."
