Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Li Lianhua nodded: "That's the most likely possibility!"

Fang Duobing asked in confusion, "Then who could it be?"

Li Lianhua: "Tomorrow I'll go find Yu Qiushuang's maid to find out about Yun Jiao's situation. She suddenly went mad, and nothing seems right."

Fang Duobing: "Hmm, that makes sense, she's faking madness!"

Li Lianhua: "Not bad, you could tell she was faking her madness too!"

Fang Duobing: "Of course."

In two days, they uncovered the truth, exposing Yu Mulan's true colors and the affair between Yu Hongzhu and Yu Qiushuang's fiancé, Zongzheng Mingzhu.

Once the two sides started fighting, the other side was naturally no match. They handed the people over to the people from Baichuan Academy and the Supervisory Department who had been notified by Li Lianhua.

Li Lianhua suggested, "I'll go take a look at the back mountain!"

Ivia: "I'll go with you."

The sound of the flute automatically followed, and Fang Duobing, having finished his business with the person, also followed.

Upon arriving at the back mountain, Li Lianhua instructed the fox spirit to find a place.

"You vixen, you smell so good! If I find you, I'll give you an extra chicken leg tonight!"

Ivy: "Xiao Qi, you go too."

Xiao Qi: "Host, can I have a chicken leg too?"

Ivia: "Mm."

Xiao Qi followed the fox spirit, and seeing its silly appearance, Ivy's eyes flashed with a smile.

Li Lianhua noticed that Di Feisheng's expression was off: "Afei, what's wrong?"

Ivy and Fang Duobing also looked over.

Di Feisheng covered his head and after a while said, "I remember now, this is where I used to go into seclusion!"

Fang Duobing: "You actually hid in such a remote place before!"

Li Lianhua: "Afei, have you remembered everything?"

Di Feisheng nodded: "Yes!"

Li Lianhua: "It's good that you've recovered. Let's go back first. It seems there's nothing else here."

*

They continued on their journey, solving the case of the headless corpse at Puchushan along the way, entering the Yipin Tomb, and obtaining the Guanyin Weeping.

Others had no obligation to shed tears for Guanyin, so they gave the sound of flute flying.

"Thank you, I'll owe you a favor later."

Li Lianhua patted him on the shoulder: "Don't be so polite, we're friends now."

Di Feisheng's face remained expressionless, but a slight ripple stirred within his heart.

Fang Duobing said, "You should take the Guanyin's Tears first!"

Di Feisheng nodded. After taking Guanyin's Tears, his old injuries were completely healed, and he even improved his skills.

*

After they arrived at their next destination, Di Feisheng suggested returning to the Golden Mandarin Duck Alliance. Li Lianhua asked, "Are you sure you're okay going back like this?"

Di Feisheng: "It's alright. Last time I was careless and fell into Jiao Liqiao's trap. Now my martial arts have recovered, and I have my own people."

Fang Duobing: "Then be careful, and contact us if anything happens!"

After spending some time together, Fang Duobing also discovered that Di Feisheng wasn't as bad as the rumors in the martial arts world suggested.

Ivy: "Send a message if anything happens."

Di Feisheng nodded, glanced at them, and turned to leave.

Ivy: "Let's go eat, rest for two days before setting off."

Li Lianhua: "Yes, let's go try some local food."

Fang Duobing said, "Then let's eat something good today."

They walked along the bustling street, and Li Lianhua randomly chose a restaurant.

"Let's go to this place, Cuihualou, and try their food."

Fang Duobing: "Let's go!"

Li Lianhua waited for Aivia, and the two went inside together.

As soon as Fang Duobing entered, he shouted, "Waiter, bring us the best private room!"

Ivy: "Let's sit in the lobby and listen to the commotion."

Li Lianhua patted Fang Duobing on the shoulder: "Alright, this will save us some living expenses. Let's sit over there!"

He pointed to a spot, and the two walked over and sat down. Fang Duobing had no choice but to follow.

Ivy: "Give us some of our signature dishes!"

Waiter: "Alright, please wait a moment, sir."

Li Lianhua picked up the kettle, poured a cup of tea for Ivy first, and then poured tea for Fang Duobing after he had set out two cups.

The group remained silent, listening to the chatter of the guests at the next table.

"I heard that several more bodies have gone missing from the cemetery in the suburbs!"

"What's the big deal? The newly buried corpse was probably carried away by a wild animal."

"How many times has this happened over the years!"

"It's strange, another bride died at Cailian Manor. Who would dare to marry their daughter there now?"

"Yes, I heard that all three brides died wearing the same wedding dress."

"There's definitely something wrong with this wedding dress. Isn't this a case of the wedding dress killing someone?"

"I think it might be that the owner of Cailian Manor is a bad person and his heart is not good, so this is God's punishment for him."

“He didn’t treat the servants in the village like human beings, and he would beat and scold them at the drop of a hat.”

"I heard that Master Guo's first wife was also driven to her death by him."

A young woman from the inn carried dishes to the next table and said, "Gentlemen, please don't talk about others behind their backs. It's not a good idea!"

"What, can't we even say it? Look at that madman in Lotus Manor, he was probably driven crazy by Master Guo. I bet his honest son will be soon too."

Just then, a person walked in from outside the shop. He heard what they were saying, looked at the people talking, and said nothing.

Upon seeing him, the young woman stepped forward and said, "Young Master Guo, please come in!"

The young master Guo nodded and followed them inside to sit down at the table behind Ivy and the others.

Fang Duobing lowered his voice: "This is the Lotus Manor, the son of the manor owner?"

Li Lianhua: "It must be him!"

"Young Master Guo, I'm so sorry. They said some unpleasant things just now. These side dishes are my apologies on their behalf."

Young Master Guo smiled and said, "It's alright."

I could hear the girl talking to Young Master Guo.

Li Lianhua looked over, and Ivy asked, "What are you looking at?"

Li Lianhua looked away: "It seems that this Young Master Guo often comes here to eat."

Fang Duobing said, "Why don't we go admire the lotus flowers? We're already here, so let's also see why these brides all died so mysteriously."

Ivia nodded: "I'd like to go see too."

The lotus is a symbol of purity and should not be defiled. It would be better if the lotus tomb in the Guo family were no longer planted with lotuses.

Li Lianhua: "Okay, we'll go after we finish eating."

*

They inquired their way until they reached the entrance of Lotus Manor.

After knocking, an elderly woman with a disfigured face opened the door. She introduced herself as Butler Jiang.

"Did you come to see the lotus flowers?"

Li Lianhua stepped forward: "We've heard that the lotus flowers at Lianhua Manor are very famous. We came here specifically to admire them since we were passing by."

Butler Jiang opened the door: "Come in!"

Ivy and Fang Duobing followed, listening to Butler Jiang introduce the lotus flower called Flowing Jade Lotus.

Ivy's expression was ambiguous: "This method of cultivating lotus is indeed special!"

Li Lianhua glanced at her, and was about to speak when she heard a maid pleading for mercy, as if she had made a mistake and was about to be severely punished.

Fang Duobing walked over and said, "Stop!"

Master Guo: "Who are you?"
