After the hero goes crazy
Chapter 378
Chapter 378
At this time, Liu Shi was still seriously injured, so Yao Hui must be in a difficult mood. He should have a lot of questions to ask Xu Xiangyi, and Yao Shouning didn't intend to disturb his father at this time.
The battle that was triggered after the arrival of Yaoxie and Chen Taiwei had a great impact on the Yao family. Not only the main house of the Liu family was destroyed, but other houses were also affected.
Fortunately, Yao Shouning's room didn't suffer much. When she and Lu Zhi returned to the door of their room, Dong Kui was carrying some broken bowls, boxes and cages and placed them on the open space in front of the door.
"Miss is back." When she saw Yao Shouning, Dong Kui's eyes turned red, and then she greeted the prince before asking:
"I heard that a demon has entered the house today?"
Today the eldest princess came to visit. Yao Shouning and the eldest princess have always been close, and rushed over when he heard the news.
Dong Kui didn't know much about what happened afterwards, only that shortly after Yao Shouning left, a strong wind blew up at home, followed by lightning and thunder.
Immediately afterwards, the earth trembled and the mountains shook, the tables and chairs in the house shook, the screen collapsed, and many things were broken.
When she was panicking, she suddenly heard someone outside screaming 'the monster is coming', after a while everything was calm, and then she heard Liu Bingzhou's voice comforting everyone.
"I know that since Mr. Liu spoke, he should be fine, but I was also worried about you, so I wanted to clean up the house and come to Miss."
Yao Shouning nodded:
"You did the right thing."
Yao Wanning is pregnant now, the most important thing is to keep the house clean, so as not to trip people up in a mess.
She did not hide mallow:
"A demon came to the house today, the one who bewitched my cousin before—"
Mallow was startled by her words, and asked:
"Miss Biao, are you okay?"
Yao Shouning was taken aback when he heard this.
Too many things happened today, she didn't even bother to say a few more words to her cousin, when she heard Dong Kui ask her, she recalled Su Miaozhen's expression, she couldn't see any sadness or resentment, instead she was still talking about her suffering. When Chen Taiwei was confused, he comforted himself a few words.
"I don't know..." She shook her head, then frowned again:
"But my cousin must have resentment towards the demon fox in her heart."
Speaking of this, a strange thought came to her mind: There is still an unsettled debt between the cousin and the demon fox, and this person and the demon will definitely be involved in the future.
It's just that this thought was fleeting, and when she thought about it again, she remembered something.
Before Gu Hou fell ill, Gu Huan came to ask for medicine.
At that time, the cousin was bewitched by the evil spirit, and completed a deal with it, and got an "unfeeling invitation" from the evil fox.
Thinking of this, Yao Shouning subconsciously glanced at Lu Zhi.
The reason why Su Miaozhen wanted to get this promise was because she was influenced by evil spirits and thought that she and Lu Zhi had a 'marriage in a previous life'.
Now my cousin is awake, knowing that the so-called "previous life" is just an illusion created by the demon fox.
Judging from Su Miaozhen's previous performance, she seemed to have no obsession with Lu Zhi anymore, and the demon fox was driven out of her body again, so the deal with the demon fox naturally came to an end.
That being the case, what is the reason for her involvement with Yaoxie?
She was thinking about something in her heart, her brows were furrowed, and she glanced at Lu Zhi from time to time, but she looked at Lu Zhi with horror, feeling uneasy in her heart.
"You, you look at me like this, it makes me feel a little creepy." Shizi folded his arms on his chest, and took a step back:
"Did you 'see' something bad?" After speaking, he seemed to have thought of something, and said in despair:
"Does your cousin want to punish me?"
"no no."
Yao Shouning shook his head hastily, seeing him as a frightened bird, thinking of his past experiences, he felt a little sympathetic, and comforted him:
"My cousin is already sober, how can she still mess with you?"
"But..." she said here, with a hesitant expression:
"I always feel that there is still an unsolved cause and effect between my cousin and the demon fox—" After finishing speaking, she briefly explained the transaction that day, and finally shook her head to herself:
"It has nothing to do with you."
Lu Zhi's face was blue and white, and he was barely relieved when he heard what she said behind him.
He is not afraid of heaven and earth, and dares to confront people like Chen Taiwei head-on, but he has suffered a lot from Su Miaozhen, who was bewitched by the demon fox.
It would be fine if Su Miaozhen was vicious by nature, but she was harmed by evil spirits, so she apologized to herself again.
It's not easy for a man to insist on having trouble with a girl.
In addition, she is Yao Shouning's cousin, so the son could only hold back this tone with tears in his eyes, and generously regarded everything that happened in the past as floating clouds.
But the bad thing is that Lu Zhi's demon voodoo has not been solved, and the fox demon is not extinct. He is always worried that the nightmare of the past will repeat itself, and those absurd things before will happen again.
This matter has become a heart disease for the son, which made him change his expression when he heard about the monster.
"What you said is true?" Although he knew that Yao Shouning was a descendant of the Bianji clan, and his foresight ability was extraordinary, Lu Zhi felt uneasy, and he was still sure again and again:
"Are you lying to me and trying to comfort me?"
"No." Seeing his nervous expression, Yao Shouning couldn't help but feel a little better after being teased by him, and shook his head:
"I really don't feel like it has anything to do with you."
Her face was full of seriousness, and when the son heard this, he believed it in most of his heart.
But he was used to bickering and joking with Yao Shouning, and Yao Shouning was worried because of Liu's injury, so he finally showed his face and smiled at this time, so he intentionally made her happy and asked:
"you swear?"
Yao Shouning nodded vigorously:
"I swear!"
The prince made a look of lingering fear, and said:
"That's fine."
He usually pretended to be calm and calm, but the nervous expression on his face made Yao Shouning want to laugh.
She pursed her lips, then turned to look at Mallow again:
"My cousin is fine for now, but my mother..."
When Liu's was mentioned, her complexion darkened a bit, and most of the sense of relaxation and joy brought about by joking and joking with the prince disappeared immediately, and the brows frowned slightly again.
"What's the matter ma'am?"
Upon hearing this, Mallow quickly put down the things in her hands and asked.
"She was injured trying to save me and my sister, and Mr. Xu is saving her at this time—" As soon as she finished speaking, Dong Kui said anxiously:
"I gonna go see."
After speaking, he hurried to the main room.
As soon as she left, she dropped things all over the floor.
Yao Shouning was afraid that the house would be in a mess and it would be difficult for his sister to move around later, so he knelt down to tidy up while talking to Lu Zhi:
"My mother has a short temper, but she is very protective of her family. Mong Kui grew up with me. I was only four years old when she entered Yao's house."
Mong Kui was about the same age as her. At that time, her parents thought she was a daughter and wanted to sell her.
But she was too young to be sold at all. In the winter, her parents coaxed her and threw her in the city.
"When my mother met her, she was squatting in a corner, and she couldn't even grab someone else's begging. She looked for someone to find out the origin of the mallow. After finding the other's parents, she quarreled with them and bought the mallow with money. of."
Although it was said that she was bought to take care of Yao Shouning's little maid, but at that time, Mum Kui was still young, so how could she do anything?
"I remember that when Mum Kui came to the house, she was thin and small, like a monkey. My mother asked Madam Cao to take care of her, and it took half a year for her to gain weight."
Yao Hui's salary was not high at that time, and he had to raise one son and two daughters, but he had no complaints about Liu's behavior, and said that he was cruel to the couple who did not want children.
Dong Kui had already remembered at that time, in her heart, Liu Shi was not only her benefactor, but also took care of her up like a mother, so that she had no worries about food and clothing, so she was very worried when she heard that Liu Shi was injured.
Lu Zhi turned to look at her.
She held a bamboo basket in her hand, and when she mentioned the past, her tone was gentle.
The prince could hear that she was very worried about Liu Shi, but he just tried to hold back by talking.
"Aunt Liu is very kind."
He comforted her, "What is rewarded is what is rewarded. Mr. Xu will definitely save her."
As soon as Lu Zhi finished speaking, the tears that had accumulated in Yao Shouning's eyes for a long time fell down and smashed on the back of her hand.
This sentence made her tears open like a torrent, and she couldn't stop crying:
"My lord, I'm really worried."
"Don't worry—" Lu Zhi was at a loss when he saw her crying, and awkwardly reached out to pat her on the back:
"Auspicious people have their own celestial features, not to mention your strong predictive ability, and you didn't sense that something happened to your mother, right?"
She leaned on Shizi's arm, weeping uncontrollably:
"But I'm still panicking."
Since Liu Bingzhou arrived, she hasn't been so flustered for a long time.
Grandfather is like a needle that stabilizes the sea. Whether it is his great display of power after entering the city of God that day, or his calm attitude of knowing many things in the future, they have given her great psychological comfort.
But when she went back to the past, she already understood that Liu Bingzhou was not a prophet, he just learned about the future earlier than others.
And he knew it because he told him that Liu's injury happened at this critical point, that is to say, no one knew whether she would recover in the end and wake up smoothly.
"There is no bad hunch, it is the best induction." Shizi said:
"Mr. Xu is still very reliable—" After finishing speaking, he hesitated:
"Although his ideas are not very reliable, but he is very capable in dealing with monsters and evil spirits."
"Look at me, how violent was the demon gu attack in the north of the city at that time? Didn't it also get suppressed later?" Seeing Yao Shouning's depression, he deliberately teased himself: "What's 'love at first sight'? And your cousin cursed me to death, my mother organized the funeral, and the demon gu was broken..."
'puff. '
Yao Shouning was very sad at first, but now he made him laugh again. She rubbed her eyes, recalled the past, and stuck out her tongue:
"My lord, you are miserable too."
"When encountering evil spirits, there is nothing to do. So in order to prevent other people from being harmed by evil spirits, we have to find a way to prevent these monsters from leaving the border gate..."
Seeing that the prince had coaxed her well, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Yao Shouning turned his head to look at him, and saw that Shi Zi had a calm expression when he spoke, as if accepting his fate.
He squatted beside her, lowering his head to help her pack things while talking.
The profile of the son showed the depth of his facial features. He was full, with beautiful peaks of eyebrows, straight nose, and red lips.
His long hair was thick, so black that it was almost blue, and it was tied into a tail by him.
As if he noticed that Yao Shouning was looking at him, he raised his eyebrows and turned his head:
"what happened?"
When he spoke, the young man rushed towards his face, and Yao Shouning suddenly felt guilt, pity and pity in his heart.
The calmer the prince was when he talked about the demon gu, the more she could feel the unwillingness hidden in his heart.
He was originally the proud son of heaven, and she still remembered his high spirits when she saw him for the first time.
But it is such a proud person who was controlled by the demon gu, lost control several times, and was ashamed of himself. He must hate this in his heart.
He recalled that at the beginning of their relationship, it was because she promised to help him get rid of the demon and bring him back to normal, and he also helped Yao Wanning get rid of the 'river god'.
Who would have imagined that neither of the two of them would have fulfilled their original promises in this transaction.
Her dishonesty was not out of intention, and Yao Shouning did not expect that the news he heard from the Fox King who was on Su Miaozhen that day was incomplete.
Afterwards, the prince went to Nan'an Mountains to kill the She family, but the She family still slipped through the net.
And because she herself was worried about Yao Wanning, she no longer cared about her son's affairs, and she has been delaying until now.
When she thought of this, she realized one thing: Whenever she was in a bad mood or unhappy, Shi Zi always tried to make her happy, and even mentioned his embarrassing things.
She laughed as soon as she heard it, but it seemed that she seldom thought about the prince's mood when he mentioned these things.
Yao Shouning suddenly felt extremely guilty, she held Shi Zi's hand:
"After my sister's affairs are settled, I will definitely find a way to help you find the She family and eliminate the demon in your body." After finishing speaking, he asked him warmly:
"OK?"
How can this be bad?
Shizi nodded, but saw that she had a gentle expression, and her big moist eyes seemed to be full of himself.
He has an unreality of good things happening suddenly:
"Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"
"I'm good to you, isn't it good?" Her tone was soft and thin, but her words were a bit awkward.
The prince could understand what she meant, and hurriedly said:
"Of course it's good—" Then, with some hesitation, he said:
"But, but, I'm afraid you're just being nice to me right now."
He was just in love, and when he was worried about gain and loss, he also liked to guess what was in her heart, but because of his lack of experience, his eyes were darkened.
For Lu Zhi, the better Yao Shouning was, the more he liked him, but the more he liked him, the more uneasy he felt.
The Yao family has two daughters, and the eldest daughter married the 'God of the River'. Yao Shouning participated in Yingtian Bookstore and personally arranged the marriage between Yao Wanning and Taizu at the bookstore, which put a certain amount of psychological pressure on Lu Zhi.
He is still young, and he used to act very casually. He has made a lot of embarrassments in front of Yao Shouning. I wonder if Yao Shouning thinks his personality is too unstable?
In addition, although he is the only son of the eldest princess and his wife, and he is backed by the General's Mansion and Zhu Hengrui, but these family backgrounds seem to be nothing compared to the Taizu.
The prince suddenly lost his sense of security, and always felt that his advantages were worthless compared to Zhu Shizhen:
"Will you always be nice to me?"
"Yes." She nodded, keenly sensing Shizi's uneasy heart at this time.
Although he didn't know what to say, he still held Shizi's hand and promised:
"I will always be good to Shizi."
"Then what if my demon gu is expelled? Will you still... travel with me, such as traveling in mountains and rivers, exploring and so on." He asked again.
"Yes." Yao Shouning spoke to him patiently:
"The son is my best friend, even if there is no demon, I will go out with you."
She promised again and again, but there was no way to reassure him.
He liked her too much and cared too much, but he acted timidly, spoke timidly, and didn't dare to ask her directly.
During the Shangsi Festival that day, after Wen Jingsui was seen through by her, the scene of her blunt rejection appeared in front of him.
At that time, she was resolute and determined, not leaving Wen Jingsui the slightest chance.
He enjoyed watching it very well, and was happy that he lost a rival in love, but how could he think that one day, he would also worry that he would encounter the same situation?
Shi Zi was satisfied with the relationship between the two of them, but he was not satisfied with it. The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, and his brows furrowed tightly.
"……Oh."
He got the answer, but it was not the answer he imagined, and he was a little unhappy.
"What's wrong?" Yao Shouning vaguely guessed the clue.
"Shou Ning, you are really good, but I always feel that in your heart, you are equally good to everyone." He said a little disappointed.
"No!" She subconsciously retorted.
He moved his lips, hesitated to speak, impulsively wanted an answer from her, but was afraid that his words would destroy the friendship between the two, and that he was the second generation Wen Jingsui.
If he was rejected, what excuse would he use to get along with Yao Shouning so naturally and casually in the future?
'Shouning, I really like you, can you like me too? '
'I really like Shouning, and I want Shouning to like me. '
'I want to be brother-in-law with Zhu Shizhen. '
He flipped through several thoughts in his mind, wanting to tell her what was on his mind, but he didn't know how to do it naturally and not be brought up by her, and finally all the ups and downs were forcibly suppressed by him and turned into calm.
"..."
Yao Shouning was dumbfounded, he 'heard' Shizi's heartfelt ups and downs from the beginning, to the final calm.
'Pounding! '
She felt like a deer in her heart, she turned her head subconsciously, not daring to look into Shizi's eyes.
She knew that the son liked her, but she hadn't fully understood what she wanted.
The word "love" is still very unfamiliar to her, and she is not yet ready for the change of relationship with the prince.
But she couldn't bear to reject the son, seeing him sad.
"Forget it, stop talking about it."
Lu Zhi squeezed out a smile:
"It's better to take care of your mother's wound first, and deal with Chen Taiwei and the evil spirit. As for my evil spirit, let's talk about it later. It's not fatal anyway."
It was fine if he didn't say such things, but Yao Shouning felt a little distressed when he tried to calm down.
"I……"
She hesitated for a moment, Shizi pretended to be relaxed, and suddenly turned his head to look around, but he found something in the pile of debris: "Hey, Shouning, what do you think this is?"
While speaking, he took a long leg and walked towards the pile of debris.
This is what Mong Kui carried out of the house, and Lu held his finger to a box.
It's just that the box may have fallen to the ground during the shock wave caused by the evil spirit's casting, breaking the lid and revealing something inside.
The thing seemed to be a cloth cover as thick as the mouth of a cup, inside which looked like rolled up calligraphy and paintings.
He always felt that it looked familiar, so he stretched out his hand to dig out from the broken hole:
"Like a scroll."
When the son said this, Yao Shouning suddenly felt a sense of excitement.
An unexplained intuition flooded into her heart, and she felt a little excited:
"It's calligraphy and painting, it's my grandfather's calligraphy and painting!"
After finishing speaking, she couldn't care less about her children's private affairs, so she quickly reached out to grab the box:
"Open it."
After hearing this, Lu Zhi grabbed the hilt of the saber hanging by his side, inserted it into the broken flap, and reminded her:
"You get behind me, be careful."
She nodded, squatted behind Shizi, put her hand on his shoulder, and watched him lightly pry it—the box burst open with a sound, revealing the contents inside.
"It really is it."
Yao Shouning was a little happy.
Inside the box was a slender cloth bag tied tightly at the mouth.
She reached for it, explaining:
"Do you still remember the painting and calligraphy written by my grandfather that I sent to your house when my mother and I visited after you were bewitched?"
Lu Zhi nodded:
"Naturally remember."
Not only remember, but also deeply impressed.
Liu Bingzhou's calligraphy and painting skills are very powerful, and later when he fell into a drowsiness due to a monster, it protected him from several disasters.
"that's it!"
Yao Shouning opened the silk rope tied to the mouth of the inner bag, and pulled out the calligraphy and paintings inside.
She smoked halfway, and suddenly remembered one thing:
"Sir!"
she yelled.
Unknown, Lu Zhi looked up at her and said, "What's wrong?"
"This calligraphy and painting was hung in your room. It protected you from evil spirits for a long time. It was not until the snake woman was killed by you that the eldest princess gave it back to me. Do you remember?"
Her red eyes sparkled, and her tone was a little excited.
Lu Zhi vaguely felt that she might have found some opportunity, so he responded:
"remember."
"After the eldest princess gave it back to me, when I took it home and took it apart for a look—"
When she said this, she paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and suppressed her inner excitement: "There is a shadow of a demon python left on the calligraphy and painting."
The eyes of the two met, and there was a tacit understanding.
Thinking of what she implied in her words, the prince couldn't help showing excitement, and subconsciously grasped the hilt of the sword in his hand.
"The news I heard from the demon fox should be true—"
She bit her lip and said:
"The Shexian family lives in Nan'anling."
If the She family that Lu Zhi wiped out at that time still slipped through the net, could it be that when she killed the snake woman, she left behind a trace of the demon soul that was sealed in the painting?
"possible!"
Shizi suppressed the excitement in his heart and replied.
When he spoke, he put his thumb on the scabbard, and the blade rubbed against the scabbard, making a harsh sound.
Yao Shouning winked at Lu Zhi, drew out his long sword, and nodded silently at her.
The girl took another deep breath, and then spread out the calligraphy and painting.
'boom! '
In an instant, it was extremely steep.
As soon as the painting was opened, the evil wind suddenly rose.
Puffs of black air gushed out from the painting, and then there was an old woman's shrill cry:
"Son - son -"
Yao Shouning's courtyard was instantly covered in black mist, and there was a tearing force from the drawing paper.
'Huh huh huh. '
The paper seemed to be shaken vigorously, but an invisible force sealed the paper so that it would not be damaged.
Yao Shouning's complexion changed, and he grasped the paper with all his strength, but the power on the paper was extremely powerful.
A fishy smell erupted from it, the canvas opened, and with a "hissing" sound, a huge snake head came out like lightning and rushed straight to her face.
She was frightened and subconsciously kept the calligraphy and painting away from her body.
'Whoa--'
The canvas came out of her hand and flew in mid-air. The snake's head in the painting was a foot long, and when it came close to her, it opened its mouth wide.
The pair of fangs were curved, shining with a cold luster, and the snake spit out a message, making a 'hissing' sound.
In a moment, the snake's head turned into a gloomy old woman's face.
The woman's eyes were swollen like fish bubbles, the corners of her mouth drooped, and she opened her mouth to shout at Yao Shouning with an expression of unspeakable resentment:
"Give my life back!"
Her mouth was dark, and the sharp fangs protruding from her lips could be vaguely seen in her voice.
"Give my life back!"
"Give my life back!"
The snake woman's hair was disheveled, and when she shouted, she stretched out a pair of skinny arms in the black air. The nails on those hands were black, about an inch long, and extremely sharp, stabbing Yao Shouning's neck forcefully.
Yao Shouning felt like reliving the nightmare of that day.
Although she is no longer the innocent girl when she first encountered the evil event, she also guessed that there would be the soul of the snake demon in the painting, but she never expected that when she opened the scroll, she would see such a terrifying scene.
..................................................................
I'm sorry everyone, I haven't been able to adjust my status recently. . .
(End of this chapter)
At this time, Liu Shi was still seriously injured, so Yao Hui must be in a difficult mood. He should have a lot of questions to ask Xu Xiangyi, and Yao Shouning didn't intend to disturb his father at this time.

Yao Shouning nodded:

She did not hide mallow:
"A demon came to the house today, the one who bewitched my cousin before—"
Mallow was startled by her words, and asked:

Yao Shouning was afraid that the house would be in a mess and it would be difficult for his sister to move around later, so he knelt down to tidy up while talking to Lu Zhi:
"My mother has a short temper, but she is very protective of her family. Mong Kui grew up with me. I was only four years old when she entered Yao's house."
Mong Kui was about the same age as her. At that time, her parents thought she was a daughter and wanted to sell her.
But she was too young to be sold at all. In the winter, her parents coaxed her and threw her in the city.
"When my mother met her, she was squatting in a corner, and she couldn't even grab someone else's begging. She looked for someone to find out the origin of the mallow. After finding the other's parents, she quarreled with them and bought the mallow with money. of."
Although it was said that she was bought to take care of Yao Shouning's little maid, but at that time, Mum Kui was still young, so how could she do anything?
"I remember that when Mum Kui came to the house, she was thin and small, like a monkey. My mother asked Madam Cao to take care of her, and it took half a year for her to gain weight."
Yao Hui's salary was not high at that time, and he had to raise one son and two daughters, but he had no complaints about Liu's behavior, and said that he was cruel to the couple who did not want children.
Dong Kui had already remembered at that time, in her heart, Liu Shi was not only her benefactor, but also took care of her up like a mother, so that she had no worries about food and clothing, so she was very worried when she heard that Liu Shi was injured.
Lu Zhi turned to look at her.
She held a bamboo basket in her hand, and when she mentioned the past, her tone was gentle.
The prince could hear that she was very worried about Liu Shi, but he just tried to hold back by talking.
"Aunt Liu is very kind."
He comforted her, "What is rewarded is what is rewarded. Mr. Xu will definitely save her."
As soon as Lu Zhi finished speaking, the tears that had accumulated in Yao Shouning's eyes for a long time fell down and smashed on the back of her hand.
This sentence made her tears open like a torrent, and she couldn't stop crying:
"My lord, I'm really worried."
"Don't worry—" Lu Zhi was at a loss when he saw her crying, and awkwardly reached out to pat her on the back:
"Auspicious people have their own celestial features, not to mention your strong predictive ability, and you didn't sense that something happened to your mother, right?"
She leaned on Shizi's arm, weeping uncontrollably:
"But I'm still panicking."
Since Liu Bingzhou arrived, she hasn't been so flustered for a long time.
Grandfather is like a needle that stabilizes the sea. Whether it is his great display of power after entering the city of God that day, or his calm attitude of knowing many things in the future, they have given her great psychological comfort.
But when she went back to the past, she already understood that Liu Bingzhou was not a prophet, he just learned about the future earlier than others.
And he knew it because he told him that Liu's injury happened at this critical point, that is to say, no one knew whether she would recover in the end and wake up smoothly.
"There is no bad hunch, it is the best induction." Shizi said:
"Mr. Xu is still very reliable—" After finishing speaking, he hesitated:
"Although his ideas are not very reliable, but he is very capable in dealing with monsters and evil spirits."
"Look at me, how violent was the demon gu attack in the north of the city at that time? Didn't it also get suppressed later?" Seeing Yao Shouning's depression, he deliberately teased himself: "What's 'love at first sight'? And your cousin cursed me to death, my mother organized the funeral, and the demon gu was broken..."
'puff. '
Yao Shouning was very sad at first, but now he made him laugh again. She rubbed her eyes, recalled the past, and stuck out her tongue:
"My lord, you are miserable too."
"When encountering evil spirits, there is nothing to do. So in order to prevent other people from being harmed by evil spirits, we have to find a way to prevent these monsters from leaving the border gate..."
Seeing that the prince had coaxed her well, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Yao Shouning turned his head to look at him, and saw that Shi Zi had a calm expression when he spoke, as if accepting his fate.
He squatted beside her, lowering his head to help her pack things while talking.
The profile of the son showed the depth of his facial features. He was full, with beautiful peaks of eyebrows, straight nose, and red lips.
His long hair was thick, so black that it was almost blue, and it was tied into a tail by him.
As if he noticed that Yao Shouning was looking at him, he raised his eyebrows and turned his head:
"what happened?"
When he spoke, the young man rushed towards his face, and Yao Shouning suddenly felt guilt, pity and pity in his heart.
The calmer the prince was when he talked about the demon gu, the more she could feel the unwillingness hidden in his heart.
He was originally the proud son of heaven, and she still remembered his high spirits when she saw him for the first time.
But it is such a proud person who was controlled by the demon gu, lost control several times, and was ashamed of himself. He must hate this in his heart.
He recalled that at the beginning of their relationship, it was because she promised to help him get rid of the demon and bring him back to normal, and he also helped Yao Wanning get rid of the 'river god'.
Who would have imagined that neither of the two of them would have fulfilled their original promises in this transaction.
Her dishonesty was not out of intention, and Yao Shouning did not expect that the news he heard from the Fox King who was on Su Miaozhen that day was incomplete.
Afterwards, the prince went to Nan'an Mountains to kill the She family, but the She family still slipped through the net.
And because she herself was worried about Yao Wanning, she no longer cared about her son's affairs, and she has been delaying until now.
When she thought of this, she realized one thing: Whenever she was in a bad mood or unhappy, Shi Zi always tried to make her happy, and even mentioned his embarrassing things.
She laughed as soon as she heard it, but it seemed that she seldom thought about the prince's mood when he mentioned these things.
Yao Shouning suddenly felt extremely guilty, she held Shi Zi's hand:
"After my sister's affairs are settled, I will definitely find a way to help you find the She family and eliminate the demon in your body." After finishing speaking, he asked him warmly:
"OK?"
How can this be bad?
Shizi nodded, but saw that she had a gentle expression, and her big moist eyes seemed to be full of himself.
He has an unreality of good things happening suddenly:
"Why are you so nice to me all of a sudden?"
"I'm good to you, isn't it good?" Her tone was soft and thin, but her words were a bit awkward.
The prince could understand what she meant, and hurriedly said:
"Of course it's good—" Then, with some hesitation, he said:
"But, but, I'm afraid you're just being nice to me right now."
He was just in love, and when he was worried about gain and loss, he also liked to guess what was in her heart, but because of his lack of experience, his eyes were darkened.
For Lu Zhi, the better Yao Shouning was, the more he liked him, but the more he liked him, the more uneasy he felt.
The Yao family has two daughters, and the eldest daughter married the 'God of the River'. Yao Shouning participated in Yingtian Bookstore and personally arranged the marriage between Yao Wanning and Taizu at the bookstore, which put a certain amount of psychological pressure on Lu Zhi.
He is still young, and he used to act very casually. He has made a lot of embarrassments in front of Yao Shouning. I wonder if Yao Shouning thinks his personality is too unstable?
In addition, although he is the only son of the eldest princess and his wife, and he is backed by the General's Mansion and Zhu Hengrui, but these family backgrounds seem to be nothing compared to the Taizu.
The prince suddenly lost his sense of security, and always felt that his advantages were worthless compared to Zhu Shizhen:
"Will you always be nice to me?"
"Yes." She nodded, keenly sensing Shizi's uneasy heart at this time.
Although he didn't know what to say, he still held Shizi's hand and promised:
"I will always be good to Shizi."
"Then what if my demon gu is expelled? Will you still... travel with me, such as traveling in mountains and rivers, exploring and so on." He asked again.
"Yes." Yao Shouning spoke to him patiently:
"The son is my best friend, even if there is no demon, I will go out with you."
She promised again and again, but there was no way to reassure him.
He liked her too much and cared too much, but he acted timidly, spoke timidly, and didn't dare to ask her directly.
During the Shangsi Festival that day, after Wen Jingsui was seen through by her, the scene of her blunt rejection appeared in front of him.
At that time, she was resolute and determined, not leaving Wen Jingsui the slightest chance.
He enjoyed watching it very well, and was happy that he lost a rival in love, but how could he think that one day, he would also worry that he would encounter the same situation?
Shi Zi was satisfied with the relationship between the two of them, but he was not satisfied with it. The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, and his brows furrowed tightly.
"……Oh."
He got the answer, but it was not the answer he imagined, and he was a little unhappy.
"What's wrong?" Yao Shouning vaguely guessed the clue.
"Shou Ning, you are really good, but I always feel that in your heart, you are equally good to everyone." He said a little disappointed.
"No!" She subconsciously retorted.
He moved his lips, hesitated to speak, impulsively wanted an answer from her, but was afraid that his words would destroy the friendship between the two, and that he was the second generation Wen Jingsui.
If he was rejected, what excuse would he use to get along with Yao Shouning so naturally and casually in the future?
'Shouning, I really like you, can you like me too? '
'I really like Shouning, and I want Shouning to like me. '
'I want to be brother-in-law with Zhu Shizhen. '
He flipped through several thoughts in his mind, wanting to tell her what was on his mind, but he didn't know how to do it naturally and not be brought up by her, and finally all the ups and downs were forcibly suppressed by him and turned into calm.
"..."
Yao Shouning was dumbfounded, he 'heard' Shizi's heartfelt ups and downs from the beginning, to the final calm.
'Pounding! '
She felt like a deer in her heart, she turned her head subconsciously, not daring to look into Shizi's eyes.
She knew that the son liked her, but she hadn't fully understood what she wanted.
The word "love" is still very unfamiliar to her, and she is not yet ready for the change of relationship with the prince.
But she couldn't bear to reject the son, seeing him sad.
"Forget it, stop talking about it."
Lu Zhi squeezed out a smile:
"It's better to take care of your mother's wound first, and deal with Chen Taiwei and the evil spirit. As for my evil spirit, let's talk about it later. It's not fatal anyway."
It was fine if he didn't say such things, but Yao Shouning felt a little distressed when he tried to calm down.
"I……"
She hesitated for a moment, Shizi pretended to be relaxed, and suddenly turned his head to look around, but he found something in the pile of debris: "Hey, Shouning, what do you think this is?"
While speaking, he took a long leg and walked towards the pile of debris.
This is what Mong Kui carried out of the house, and Lu held his finger to a box.
It's just that the box may have fallen to the ground during the shock wave caused by the evil spirit's casting, breaking the lid and revealing something inside.
The thing seemed to be a cloth cover as thick as the mouth of a cup, inside which looked like rolled up calligraphy and paintings.
He always felt that it looked familiar, so he stretched out his hand to dig out from the broken hole:
"Like a scroll."
When the son said this, Yao Shouning suddenly felt a sense of excitement.
An unexplained intuition flooded into her heart, and she felt a little excited:
"It's calligraphy and painting, it's my grandfather's calligraphy and painting!"
After finishing speaking, she couldn't care less about her children's private affairs, so she quickly reached out to grab the box:
"Open it."
After hearing this, Lu Zhi grabbed the hilt of the saber hanging by his side, inserted it into the broken flap, and reminded her:
"You get behind me, be careful."
She nodded, squatted behind Shizi, put her hand on his shoulder, and watched him lightly pry it—the box burst open with a sound, revealing the contents inside.
"It really is it."
Yao Shouning was a little happy.
Inside the box was a slender cloth bag tied tightly at the mouth.
She reached for it, explaining:
"Do you still remember the painting and calligraphy written by my grandfather that I sent to your house when my mother and I visited after you were bewitched?"
Lu Zhi nodded:
"Naturally remember."
Not only remember, but also deeply impressed.
Liu Bingzhou's calligraphy and painting skills are very powerful, and later when he fell into a drowsiness due to a monster, it protected him from several disasters.
"that's it!"
Yao Shouning opened the silk rope tied to the mouth of the inner bag, and pulled out the calligraphy and paintings inside.
She smoked halfway, and suddenly remembered one thing:
"Sir!"
she yelled.
Unknown, Lu Zhi looked up at her and said, "What's wrong?"
"This calligraphy and painting was hung in your room. It protected you from evil spirits for a long time. It was not until the snake woman was killed by you that the eldest princess gave it back to me. Do you remember?"
Her red eyes sparkled, and her tone was a little excited.
Lu Zhi vaguely felt that she might have found some opportunity, so he responded:
"remember."
"After the eldest princess gave it back to me, when I took it home and took it apart for a look—"
When she said this, she paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and suppressed her inner excitement: "There is a shadow of a demon python left on the calligraphy and painting."
The eyes of the two met, and there was a tacit understanding.
Thinking of what she implied in her words, the prince couldn't help showing excitement, and subconsciously grasped the hilt of the sword in his hand.
"The news I heard from the demon fox should be true—"
She bit her lip and said:
"The Shexian family lives in Nan'anling."
If the She family that Lu Zhi wiped out at that time still slipped through the net, could it be that when she killed the snake woman, she left behind a trace of the demon soul that was sealed in the painting?
"possible!"
Shizi suppressed the excitement in his heart and replied.
When he spoke, he put his thumb on the scabbard, and the blade rubbed against the scabbard, making a harsh sound.
Yao Shouning winked at Lu Zhi, drew out his long sword, and nodded silently at her.
The girl took another deep breath, and then spread out the calligraphy and painting.
'boom! '
In an instant, it was extremely steep.
As soon as the painting was opened, the evil wind suddenly rose.
Puffs of black air gushed out from the painting, and then there was an old woman's shrill cry:
"Son - son -"
Yao Shouning's courtyard was instantly covered in black mist, and there was a tearing force from the drawing paper.
'Huh huh huh. '
The paper seemed to be shaken vigorously, but an invisible force sealed the paper so that it would not be damaged.
Yao Shouning's complexion changed, and he grasped the paper with all his strength, but the power on the paper was extremely powerful.
A fishy smell erupted from it, the canvas opened, and with a "hissing" sound, a huge snake head came out like lightning and rushed straight to her face.
She was frightened and subconsciously kept the calligraphy and painting away from her body.
'Whoa--'
The canvas came out of her hand and flew in mid-air. The snake's head in the painting was a foot long, and when it came close to her, it opened its mouth wide.
The pair of fangs were curved, shining with a cold luster, and the snake spit out a message, making a 'hissing' sound.
In a moment, the snake's head turned into a gloomy old woman's face.
The woman's eyes were swollen like fish bubbles, the corners of her mouth drooped, and she opened her mouth to shout at Yao Shouning with an expression of unspeakable resentment:
"Give my life back!"
Her mouth was dark, and the sharp fangs protruding from her lips could be vaguely seen in her voice.
"Give my life back!"
"Give my life back!"
The snake woman's hair was disheveled, and when she shouted, she stretched out a pair of skinny arms in the black air. The nails on those hands were black, about an inch long, and extremely sharp, stabbing Yao Shouning's neck forcefully.
Yao Shouning felt like reliving the nightmare of that day.
Although she is no longer the innocent girl when she first encountered the evil event, she also guessed that there would be the soul of the snake demon in the painting, but she never expected that when she opened the scroll, she would see such a terrifying scene.
