Chapter 224 - Snake Hundred Grass (8)
"Or, you think differently."
"What do you think, Brother Chang?"
"You just have to think, it's a big deal that you're scared to death or killed by them, and when you die, you'll become a ghost like them, wouldn't it be better?"
Xiao Shengzi thought for a while, and actually came out from behind Chang Tai: "It seems to be the truth." ”
After finishing speaking, he saw the thing lying on Zhu Changxi's back with a human head and a snake body, and immediately screamed in fright: "What is this, Brother Chang, what is that thing lying on Zhu Changxi's body." ”
Chang Tai also saw that thing, and his face suddenly became ugly. Obviously, the things in this person's head and snake body are also beyond his ability to withstand ghosts.
"Don't be too scary, in fact, you can also think differently." Xing Ruyi stared at the thing with the snake's body for a long time, of course she wouldn't think that this was some kind of Nuwa's descendant, nor would it be a snake demon who hadn't successfully cultivated halfway through, but a poor woman who was swallowed by a snake in her stomach. Because of the terrifying memory before her death, she also preserved this appearance after she became a ghost.
"What thoughts? Could it be that Ruyi girl, you also want to learn from Brother Chang to persuade me, saying that after she killed me, I will also become a monster with a human head and a snake body. Don't, I'd rather be like my maid sister than like her. It's not that I'm scared, it's mostly that it's disgusting. ”
"She's not a monster, she's just the eldest lady of the Zhu family who was eaten by the giant snake."
Zhu ...... Zhu Jia...... Zhu Changxi, if you kill someone, you will kill people, why did you feed your wife to a snake. Xiao Shengzi finally recovered, and he pointed at Zhu Changxi and scolded.
Zhu Changxi smiled: "Sheng Catch, you have wronged me, it was not me who fed her to the snake, it was she who had to run into the snake's belly, I couldn't stop it." ”
"It's full of nonsense, how can you die, you have to let the snake eat it."
"On that day, my father-in-law asked me to accompany her to deliver something to my aunt in the mountains. At that time, I already had a plan in my heart, I wanted her to die, I didn't want her to return to the Zhu family. Along the way, I had many opportunities to do it, but she didn't speak disrespectfully to me like in the past, or even scolded me like a dog, but seemed very quiet and virtuous. To be honest, my wife was born well, and just looking at her appearance will make a man's heart move. At that time, I hesitated, thinking that if she could really improve, we might not be able to be a loving couple in the future.
When I was about to get to the nunnery, she asked me to go back, saying that she wanted to stay in the nunnery for a few days. I asked her how many days she would have to stay, but she needed me to pick her up. She said coldly, no need, when the time comes, someone will come to pick her up. I was still a little strange, strange how her attitude had suddenly changed. On the way back, the carriage groom told me one thing, and it was this incident that made me determined that I had to kill her. ”
"What's the matter?"
"The coachman told me that the reason why Madame disliked me was that she had a good relationship outside, and that many times she had met the man privately under the pretext of going out to buy. The lady had threatened the coachman to keep it a secret. But the coachman is also the one who is bullied by her, and in the Zhu Mansion, I am the only master who does not treat him as a subordinate and keeps calling him by his name. He was very grateful to me, and he couldn't bear to let me be bullied by them so far, so he kindly told me. ”
"It's also possible that the driver took revenge for personal gain, and what he said may not be true."
"Yes, I thought about it too, so when I got back to the city, I investigated it privately, and it turned out that what the driver told me was true. My wife did find another friend outside, and my father-in-law knew about it. According to my original plan, I didn't want to attack my father-in-law, because after my wife died, I was the only person in the Zhu family that he could rely on. I lost my father when I was a child, and I have an inexplicable expectation for my father. I know that my father-in-law is not good to me, but no matter how bad it is, I still have to call him Daddy.
My father-in-law likes me very much to participate, not because he hopes that I can get ahead and win any good reputation, but because he wants me to take the opportunity to climb the relationship and find a partner or backer for the Zhu family's business. On the pretext of participating in the poetry and book meeting, I left Zhu's mansion, hired another carriage, and asked the coachman to send me to the mountains. ”
"The person who sent the letter to Miss Zhu is ......"
"It's my coachman. He had nothing to do with the rest of the matter, he just delivered a letter to Madame as I had instructed. Actually, this Luoyang City seems to be very large, but in fact, the interpersonal network is very small, and I can easily find out who the person who is good with my wife in private. ”
Zhu Changxi snorted lightly and looked down at his upper.
Actually, not one letter, but two letters. This first letter was written in imitation of that person's handwriting, and it was nothing more than pouring out my longing for her, and then asking her to meet outside the nunnery. This second letter was written in my voice, saying that I had learned about what she was doing outside and had poisoned my father-in-law. This first letter was written in such a way that I was almost touched by myself. This second letter, however, is only two lines long, and it is very simple. Finally, I asked the coachman to deliver the second letter. Not long after, my wife and my aunt hurried out of the nunnery, and when she saw me sitting in the carriage, she pointed at my nose and scolded me.
She was my wife, and if she had knelt down and begged me instead of pointing at my nose and scolding me, I might have relented, as I had done when I had sent her to the nunnery, and had done nothing in spite of her thoughts of letting her die.
But she scolded me, and admitted that she had a personal affair with others, and also told me that she already had the flesh and blood of that person in her womb, and told me to get out of the Zhu family quickly. I laughed, it turned out that these days, she has a slightly better attitude towards me, all because she has the man's child in her womb. I'm a man, and I'm also a man who stands up to the sky, and I can't stand this humiliation. ”
"You are a man, you can leave the Zhu family and start over."
"Ruyi girl, what you said is so easy. Leave? Why should I leave? Over the years, I have been a cow and a horse for their Zhu family, but now this cow is old and the horse is miserable, so it will be abandoned and driven away, why. How? They could only kill the donkey by unloading the mill, not allowing the donkey to resist, and kicking the people of their Zhu family to death. It doesn't matter if it's a cow, a horse, a dog or a donkey, I just want justice.
I asked my aunt to give me justice, even if she said that I had done my best for the Zhu family over the years, even if I wanted to dissolve the marriage, I had to give me some appropriate compensation. This world is so big, but it's hard to move an inch without money, so it's always right to give me some money, right? But what did the old nun say, saying that since fate has come to an end, she shouldn't force it. She worships the Buddha, but she doesn't even worship the most basic bodhisattva heart, you say, what is the meaning of her living, forget it when she dies. ”
"How did you kill them?"
I pretended to agree, then took the tea from the car and handed one of the cups to the old nun. I said, I agree with my aunt's words, and after leaving the Zhu family, I will also find a temple to become a monk. That cup of tea was the fate of my relationship with the Zhu family at that time. My wife wouldn't let her drink, but she didn't stop her. She really should have listened to my wife, so that she would not have been poisoned, but would have been swallowed alive by the serpent, just like my wife. ”
"You poisoned your aunt?"
"She's not my aunt, she's from the Zhu family." Zhu Changxi shouted loudly: "It's just that she was poisoned, what's the big deal, my aunt was forced to commit suicide by taking poison by the people of their Zhu family." ”
"And my lady, who usually looks very powerful, but as soon as her aunt died, she was terrified. I already have a human life on my hands, and I certainly won't let her go. Then, she ran, and I chased after me. That mountain is really big, I didn't expect that I couldn't even catch up with a woman's family. Later, I smelled a scent of flowers, a very familiar fragrance of flowers, and when I saw it clearly, I knew that my wife would not live. ”
Zhu Changxi's eyes suddenly became distant.
"My biological father was a flower and herb merchant, and when he was collecting flowers and plants in the mountains, he smelled a strange fragrance and went away in search of the incense, but he died in the belly of a snake. Because of this, my mother specially taught me about a kind of flower, which is called snake herb. But wherever there are snakes and grasses, there will be big snakes, and where my wife was standing at that time, there were snakes and plants all around. I just watched her quietly, as she was swallowed by a big snake. Until now, in the middle of the night, I still dream of her at that time, she was so afraid, so afraid, even so pitiful, she begged me to save her, but why? I'm not stupid, how could I die in the belly of a snake with her. On top of that, she didn't have me in her heart at all. She didn't love me, and I certainly had no reason to die with her. ”
After saying this, Zhu Changxi seemed to be very tired and tired, and he sat on the ground softly: "Although my wife saw me first, although my father-in-law forced me to come to the Zhu family to become their son-in-law by relying on their family's wealth, I really like my wife." On my wedding night, when I lifted her hijab, I felt like I was the happiest man in the world. But happiness is always so short-lived, so short that you don't even have time to grasp it, and it's gone. ”
"What's the deal with the injury on your back?" Xing Ruyi asked.
"Hurt? I'm wearing such thick clothes, can Miss Ruyi see the wound on my back? ”
"Your wife is lying on top of you all day, you should have a little reaction, right?" Xing Ruyi glanced at the Miss Zhu family, who had encircled Zhu Changxi in the body of the snake and was looking at him face to face.
"My wife, she...... Is it really lying on my back? Zhu Changxi closed his eyes and opened them: "Ruyi girl, you still have cow tears, I want to see my wife again." ”
