Chapter 163 No more slaughter
As the saying goes, in this world, the most dangerous place, sometimes, is the safest place.
Similarly, in this world, the seemingly most unlikely person is sometimes the initiator.
Just like Mrs. Zhong, about the loss of the lotus heart, she has doubted a lot of people, and she has suspected Shui'er, just because it is not her own biological flesh and blood, and even her own biological flesh and blood are suspicious, she suspects Zhong Jin, just because Zhong Jin is suspicious by nature and eager for quick success.
However, for Wan'er, Mrs. Zhong is always the most assured, because, in her own words, it is today's Wan'er, and she is no longer the same as she used to be, and she will never do such a thing if she is simply like a child.
However, Mrs. Zhong forgot that after the end of the lotus feast, the well-behaved Wan'er on weekdays, the Wan'er who relied on Zhong Jin for everything, really changed.
For the pursuit of the past, Wan'er is no longer the weak woman.
After the lotus feast ended, she originally wanted to ask Zhong Jin well, but she didn't say anything, because, she knew, judging from Zhong Jin's performance at the lotus feast, he must not want to know about the past, so if she asked him like this, she would definitely not be able to ask anything, so Wan'er would plan her plan, pretending to be as innocent as before, and then pretending that nothing had happened, but, in fact, Wan'er just wanted everyone to be unwary of her, and then start her own planγ
It was a dark and windy night.
The Murong family still let it be as quiet as usual.
After the lotus feast, although Murong Yingxue became the target of public criticism at that time, after all, Shen Shuiji still died in the end, so everything was over.
"Miss, we really didn't expect that this Shen Shuiji turned out to be Murong Jie's dead girl. Shi Zu said indignantly on the side.
"Actually, I was more or less suspicious at that time, because, once I found that this Shen Shuiji had a movement, which was very similar to Murong Jie's, so I began to suspect that in order to verify my idea, I also tested Murong Jie's original fatal weakness on Shen Shuiji's body, but Shen Shuiji was not allergic, so since then, I haven't been too worried. β
After finishing speaking, Murong Yingxue seemed to suddenly remember something, and then continued: "Although, this Shen Shuiji once wanted to harm me, but now that she is dead, it is not a problem, but there is one person who makes me very uneasy. β
"Who?"
"Zhong Dusk Mountain," Murong Yingxue said.
The ancestor looked at Murong Yingxue in confusion.
"Uncle, at that time, when Shen Shuiji told me about the things I had conspired with her, and told Zhong Dushan about the book I had taken to check and balance, but Zhong Dushan insisted that the book was never given to Shen Shuiji, but had been in his study, in order to verify that he was telling the truth, so Zhong Dushan also asked his son to take the book out of the study. β
Listening to Murong Yingxue's words, the ancestor was very surprised.
"Miss, so that the man in black was sent by Zhong Dushan back then?"
Murong Yingxue nodded.
"So, this Zhong Dushan has long known about our dealings with Shen Shuiji?"
Not only that, Shen Shuiji told Zhong Dushan everything, including the pigeon. Murong Yingxue added.
"In this way, Zhong Dushan is really strange, he must know that we have evil intentions, and it stands to reason that we should be killed as soon as possible, but when Shen Shuiji confessed to us, instead of attacking us, he tried his best to protect us. Shi Zu said, his tone was full of worry.
"yes, I think he just did it on purpose to show us and tell us that he already knew everything, but he still didn't do it to us for a while. Murong Yingxue said worriedly.
"Could it be that this Zhong Dushan has already sensed something?"
"It's hard to say, and when Zhong Dushan put away the lotus heart, he looked at me. β
"Ah" Shizu couldn't help but scream, and then said, "Could it be that he already knows Wan'er's secret?"
"I don't know. And this Wan'er, I really cultivated her in vain at that time, and in the end, nothing helped, but made me fall into an embarrassment again and again. Thinking of this, Murong Yingxue said angrily.
Moreover, Murong Kun's reaction at that time was also very abnormal. β
"Yes, I never thought that this Murong Kun would actually save my life. β
"It seems that this Murong Kun has a better conscience than Wan'er," Shizu said.
Murong Yingxue looked at her ancestor like a master, and then said: "Uncle, you are wrong, Murong Kun saved me, it was not that he had a conscience at all, but that he had other plans." β
"Oh, what's the plan?"
"I don't know, and, at this time, I don't want to know, because there is something more important that I need to do now. β
"What's the matter?"
"That is, I suspect that this Murong Feng has recovered his memory. β
"How is this possible?" said Shi Zu, his tone full of surprise.
At that time, Murong Feng had been dodging, and when Shen Shuiji was about to tell Wan'er everything, Murong Feng killed Shen Shuiji before Shen Shuiji could say Murong Feng's name. β
"So, Murong Feng doesn't want Wan'er to know about his existence, but it doesn't make sense, since he remembered it, why didn't he tell Wan'er, but instead blocked Shen Shuiji from telling the truth?"
"I'm afraid he wants to be a big hero and let go for love. After speaking, Murong Yingxue smiled coldly, and her tone was full of mockery and contempt.
Yes, a cold-blooded person like Murong Yingxue, who has been aiming for revenge all his life, naturally will not understand such so-called affection in the world.
"Now it seems that we have too many uncertainties. Shi Zu said worriedly.
"yes. Originally, I thought that I only had one enemy, Zhong Dushan, but now it seems that these people I raised in the past are now my enemies. β
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"It's so late, who could it be?" Shi Zu was puzzled.
This person is none other than Wan'er.
After the lotus feast, Wan'er knew that she was a member of the Murong family, so it was impossible to get the truth from the mouths of the Zhong family to find out her life experience, so Wan'er decided to come to the Murong family in person.
Although Wan'er has no memory of the beginning, when she stepped into Murong's house for the first time, she still had an indescribable sense of familiarity, after all, this was once the place where she grew up, so she and Murong Feng met and fell in love.
So, every grass and tree here, Wan'er felt a sense of intimacy, and at the same time I don't know why there is still a little sentimentality.
Wan'er thought that this might be what Shen Shuiji said, because of her former lover, because she had an unforgettable love, so it naturally made Wan'er sad.
When Murong Yingxue opened the door, she was very surprised to see Wan'er standing in front of her.
However, she immediately controlled her emotions, and then said calmly: "Oh, who did I say, so late, it turned out to be the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Zhong family, I don't know what to do with visiting late at night?"
Looking at Murong Yingxue's yin and yang weird appearance, Wan'er was very dissatisfied.
So, Wan'er said straight to the point: "At this moment, I am not the young grandmother of the Zhong family, but the senior sister of the Murong family. β
Unexpectedly, Wan'er said such a thing as soon as she opened her mouth, and Murong Yingxue didn't know what to say for a while.
"Master Murong, although I don't have any memory now, I still want to ask you, what is going on with all this?"
Murong Yingxue still didn't speak.
"Master Murong, I heard that when I was in a coma, you used potion to revive me, since you don't want me to die, then please tell me everything about my past. β
"Didn't Shen Shuiji say it all that day?" Murong Yingxue said coldly.
In fact, long before she came, Wan'er guessed that this Murong Yingxue must not be an easy person to deal with, and she also knew that she would not easily get the answer she wanted, so when Wan'er saw Murong Yingxue, who was dodging like this, she was not impatient in her heart, but said patiently:
"Master Murong, you know, the situation at that time was very special, Shen Shuiji's speech was also very vague, I don't have a clear outline until now, I just know, my name is Murong Wan'er, and I don't know anything else. β
"Then what do you want to know?" Murong Yingxue asked coldly.
"I want to know, is what Shen Shuiji said true?" Wan'er asked sincerely.
"Hmph," Murong Yingxue snorted contemptuously, and then said, "Shen Shuiji said so many words, how do I know which sentence you are referring to?"
"According to what Shen Shuiji said, I married Zhong Jin, and there is something else hidden in it?" Wan'er asked.
"I don't know this, at that time, the person who said that he was going to get married, but you yourself. β
Seeing Murong Yingxue's uncooperative appearance, Wan'er was very disappointed, but, after all, at this time, except for this Murong Yingxue in front of her, there was no second person to tell her about the past.
Therefore, Wan'er then asked: "Also, Master Murong, at that time, Shen Shuiji said that I had a lover, but she died just by saying the word Murong, so I want to know, is this person Murong Feng?"
Looking at Wan'er's straightforwardness, Murong Yingxue was also taken aback.
In fact, after returning from the lotus feast, Wan'er thought about it all night, and she kept thinking about it, and Shen Shuiji finally said that sentence to her.
Since that old love is surnamed Murong, it means that this person is the man of the Murong family.
As for the men of the Murong family, Wan'er had only seen them during the lotus feast.
One is Murong Kun.
Another flat silk Murong Feng.
And it was this Murong Feng that made Wan'er very curious, at that time, it was he who kept calling himself Wan'er, and it was he who kept saying that he was his lover, but then he suddenly changed his words and said that he recognized the wrong person.
Later, when this Murong Feng was at the lotus feast, he seemed to have been looking at himself, and his eyes were full of unspeakable love, and what was even more puzzling was that when Shen Shuiji was about to tell the truth, he insisted on blocking it, and finally did not hesitate to kill Shen Shuiji.
In this way, this Murong Feng must be the old love of Shen Shuiji.
However, if you have loved it, why hide it?
At the same time, since he loves him, why should he marry Zhong Jin?
All the questions made Wan'er very puzzled.
At this time, seeing that Murong Yingxue didn't speak, Wan'er continued: "Master Murong, why don't you tell me?"
Murong Yingxue looked at Wan'er coldly, and then spoke.
"Do you really want to know?"
"Of course," seeing that Murong Yingxue was a little relieved, Wan'er was very excited.
"It's okay to tell you, but you have to promise me one condition. Murong Yingxue said suddenly.
"On what terms?"
"Forget it, I still won't say it, even if I say it, it's in vain, you definitely won't be satisfied with me. β
"Master Murong, if you don't say it, how do you know that I can't do it?" Wan'er was a little anxious.
"Okay, if you really want to know the past, I can tell you everything, but I need you to help me steal something from the Zhong family. β
"What is it?" Wan'er asked impatiently.
"Lotus Heart. Murong Yingxue said coldly.
Wan'er was silent.
At the lotus feast, Wan'er saw with her own eyes that Zhong Dushan carefully put the lotus heart into the shrine. Although she didn't know what kind of effect this lotus heart had, Wan'er knew in her heart that Zhong Dushan must be very concerned about this lotus heart.
And let herself steal a beloved thing like Zhong Dushan, Wan'er really can't do it.
Although Wan'er has no memory, Wan'er still remembers the Zhong family's kindness to Wan'er, although Wan'er resents them for hiding their past, but Wan'er knows that all of this must be Zhong Jin's idea, and it has nothing to do with the two old men of the Zhong family. These two old men, especially Mrs. Zhong, treat themselves as their own and love them very much, how can they do such a thing?
However, Wan'er really wanted to know her past too much, so Wan'er couldn't care so much, so she said: "Okay, no problem, three days later, I will send the lotus heart, but I hope that Master Murong will also be true to his word." β
After speaking, Wan'er left the Zhong family.
Looking at Wan'er's back, Shizu asked, "Miss, this time, what do you want Lianxin to do?"
"At the beginning, I used Lotus Heart to make Wan'er, just thinking that I could help me, but I didn't expect that this Wan'er was so useless, so I planned to be another person. Murong Yingxue looked into the distance, and her eyes were full of unguessable profundity.
"Then you say, will Wan'er bring Lotus Heart?"
"Looking at her appearance, there should be no problem, and besides, she is a big celebrity in the Zhong family now, and no one will suspect that she took Lianxin away. After Murong Yingxue finished speaking, a smile appeared on her face.
"But, miss, do you really want to tell Wan'er everything?" asked the master with some concern.
"How could I be so stupid. Isn't telling her the truth of the matter tantamount to telling her that I'm also a sinner? In this way, she and Murong Feng are joining forces, so am I not cocooning myself?"
"What do you mean, Miss?"
"I have raised Wan'er for more than 20 years, and it is time for her to repay me well, and when she gives me the lotus heart, her mission will be completed. At this moment, a strange smile suddenly flashed on Murong Yingxue's face.
"So, Wan'er," the ancestor wanted to speak and stopped.
"Yes, when Wan'er gives me the lotus heart, I will kill her, after all, her life was also given by me, and now, I want to get it back. β
Then, Shizu and Murong Yingxue looked at each other and smiled.
And when Wan'er returned to Zhong's house, she didn't go directly to her room, but went to the warehouse.
There, there is a lotus heart.
Adin was keeping vigil, so, just as Zhong Dushan thought, Wan'er stunned him, took the lotus heart from the warehouse, and then erased all of Adin's memories.
Then, Wan'er hid Lianxin in her clothes and returned to her room.
However, Murong Yingxue really thought about Wan'er too simply.
Because, Wan'er at this moment is no longer the Wan'er who is slaughtered by others, looking at the lotus heart in her hand, Wan'er knows what she should do.
