This family keeps two large, fat pigs in their pigsty.

The pigsty wasn't just a circle; it had a mud shed inside where the pigs could sleep and shelter from the rain, though it was built rather low.

The host family didn't seem to be home, so Lin Shuyun told the two of them to hide inside while she did something else and would come back to find them later.

Gui Tong covered his nose and said to Zhang Yuanshou beside him, "Master, what if these two pigs come in and bite us?"

Zhang Yuanshou, who was still tied up, gagged a couple of times. His mouth was also gagged, so he couldn't vomit and almost cried.

Foolish child, can't you see I'm still tied up? Can you untie me before you speak?

When Lin Shuyun entered the Guo family again, the Guo family was in complete chaos, with people searching everywhere for someone.

Taking advantage of the chaos, she went to the room where Guo Chong had been before, and as soon as she got to the door, she smelled a strong stench of blood.

Someone died inside?

"Grab her! Grab this assassin!"

Just then, the guard saw Lin Shuyun, who cursed under her breath and turned to run away.

With people chasing after her relentlessly, Lin Shuyun could only run to the backyard, where she saw a masked man surrounded.

The two of them were caught in a chaotic mess, like dumplings being wrapped up.

Lin Shuyun was a little flustered when she saw the familiar face.

Dude, she wouldn't recognize you if your face was covered?

At least change your outfit like hers; that's so unprofessional.

Little did he know that Jiang Changtian was also panicking. He had killed Guo Zhong but did not expect that there would be so many people guarding the Guo family. He was a step too slow and was surrounded, which was bad enough, but he also ran into her here.

Seeing Lin Shuyun looking him up and down, Jiang Changtian's heart was in his throat.

He wasn't carrying a cane, so he probably didn't recognize me.

"go!"

As Lin Shuyun spoke, she hooked the vine in her hand onto a tree opposite her, then hugged Jiang Changtian's waist, and swung directly onto the roof.

The Guo family was dumbfounded. By the time they chased after them, the two had already disappeared.

At this moment, blood was everywhere in the room where Guo Zhong had been.

Guo Zhong, who was sitting in a chair, had his throat slit. His eyes were wide open, and he died with his eyes wide open, unable to close them in peace.

Master Guo stared intently at his son.

"Master, the one who killed the young master was a masked man, tall in stature..."

Guo Zhong's servant knelt on the ground, trembling. He was talking to his young master when suddenly someone slit his young master's throat through the door, and blood splattered on his face.

The young master died without leaving a single last word.

Master Guo reached out to touch Guo Zhong's face, his eyes filled with tears as he gritted his teeth, "My son, I, Guo Xinghuai, have been plotting in Lin County for so long, but now I've ended up with a white-haired man burying a black-haired man and the family line ending."

The trembling servant whispered, "Master, the Guo family line hasn't ended. The young master still has a child. He had a woman named Rouge who was with him before the accident, and she's almost a month pregnant now."

Upon hearing this, Master Guo burst out laughing.

The servant was stunned for a moment and almost laughed along, but the next second, Master Guo grabbed him by the neck.

"You kept that prostitute and got her pregnant, didn't you? You even dared to claim she was my son's. With your petty cleverness, you dared to try and steal anything from the Guo family. You overestimating fool."

No matter how much the servant struggled, it was all in vain. He died shortly afterward, his eyes wide open, just like Guo Zhong's.

Master Guo muttered to himself, "Bai Heng, you rescued Chief Physician Zhang, but that doesn't mean you have to kill my son, does it?"

He had received advance notice that Chief Physician Zhang had come to treat Bai Heng, and he forcibly intercepted him for the sake of his son.

Unexpectedly, it ultimately cost her son his life.

Guo Xinghuai looked at his son's corpse, filled with extreme hatred and rage.

From this day forward, he would never forgive Bai Heng for killing his son.

……

……

"Husband, your leg is healed, shouldn't you give me an explanation?"

At the entrance to the pigsty, Lin Shuyun stood with her arms crossed, looking at Jiang Changtian.

She always thought that his leg, despite the psychological trauma, would recover and he could walk again, so she kept using crutches. But it turned out that he could throw away his crutches and run long ago.

She and her husband are of one heart, but her husband is playing tricks on her, isn't he?

Jiang Changtian originally intended to pretend he didn't know her, thank her, and leave, but upon hearing this, he froze.

He thought she would pretend she didn't see anything, just like last time, but he didn't expect her to be the one to break the silence first.

The smell of pig manure was awful. Jiang Changtian, having been recognized, gritted his teeth and ripped off the mask from his face, revealing a face covered in a beard.

"I'm sorry, Yunyun, I shouldn't have kept it from you, I..."

Lin Shuyun almost stumbled and fell into the pigsty.

It turns out he was faking it. With that beard, he looked like a middle-aged man, complete with a mustache.

In that instant, she regretted calling him "husband."

"Alright, that's enough. Everyone has secrets, and I can't force you to tell me if you don't want to."

"How are you two? Can you still walk?"

Lin Shuyun looked at Jiang Changtian like this and felt really speechless. She simply looked at Dean Zhang and Gui Tong instead.

It's more important to take care of the important matters first.

"I can walk now, thanks to the two heroes who saved my life," Chief Zhang said gratefully.

“It has nothing to do with him. I saved you. I will repay your life with my body. You two will come with me as payment for saving you.”

Upon smelling the pungent odor, Lin Shuyun subconsciously took two steps back.

Chief Zhang was completely embarrassed. He clutched his sleeve and said, "This...this...it's one thing for me to be a child, but I'm so old, how can I possibly repay this with my body?"

Do women from neighboring counties have such unusual tastes?

Gui Tong frowned, his round face contorted. "Master, I'm only fourteen. This is improper."

So the heroine meant it when she said she was selling herself? If he won't sell, let the master sell; the master is valuable.

Lin Shuyun frowned. "What do you mean by carrying buckets? The Guo family went to such lengths to lock you up, so your medical skills must be quite good. Go and help me save someone, and we'll call it even."

Upon hearing this, Dean Zhang breathed a heavy sigh of relief, thinking that his old bones had just escaped one danger only to fall into another.

"Please, my benefactor."

Jiang Changtian's face was flushed. He had already promised to repay the life-saving grace with his body.

"Yunyun, I..."

Just as Jiang Changtian was about to speak, the back door opened, and a woman carrying a swill stared wide-eyed at the four of them.

"Who are you? What are you doing in my pigsty? Are you trying to steal pigs in broad daylight?!"

"Help! Catch the pig thief!"

……

……

Inside the academy.

Dean Bai stayed by the bedside, chanting the names of all the gods and Buddhas, finally hoping that Old Man Xu would wake up.

"Teacher, are you alright?" Bai Heng asked, tears welling up in his eyes as he watched his teacher open his eyes and look around.

"Who are you?"

Old Xu glanced at Bai Heng and frowned.

"Teacher, don't you recognize me?"

Bai Heng almost screamed, "It's over! The teacher was already mentally retarded, and now his brain is damaged too, he's completely lost his memory!"

"presumptuous!"

Old Xu suddenly spoke, his voice carrying an imposing authority without anger, and Bai Heng immediately knelt down.
