Shen Huaixu left on horseback and happened to meet Muning's wedding team.

The road was not wide enough, so he stopped and got down to let the wedding party pass first.

The drums were beating loudly in the street, creating a joyous scene.

The red color is everywhere, in sharp contrast to the black clothes on Shen Huaixu's body.

He pulled the reins and just wanted to leave, not wanting to participate in anyone else's joy.

But when he missed it, he accidentally looked up at the groom.

The groom's face could only be described as handsome, and he forced a smile on his lips to be polite to the onlookers.

He looked unwilling.

If you don't like it, you still want to marry?

Shen Huaixu curled his lips sarcastically and was about to leave on horseback.

Thinking of something in a daze, he frowned and rode in another direction.

There was a group of people behind him, and although he was confused, he had no choice but to follow.

The horse stopped at the door of a house in Mujiacun. The white elegiac couplet on the door was very eye-catching.

He opened the door and found the yard desolate and deserted.

Someone happened to be passing by, and Shen Huaixu stopped him and asked, "What happened to this family?"

The man took one look and sighed: "He's dead. He died in childbirth half a month ago. It's so miserable."

After the man finished speaking, he wanted to leave, but was grabbed by Shen Huaixu. Shen Huaixu gave him a piece of gold and said, "Tell me carefully."

The man collected the gold and said softly: "The woman inside is called Chen Li. She is a couple with Mu Ning from Mu Laowu's family in the east. Chen Li is pregnant, but the Mu family thinks that she has no father and no one." Mu Ning’s mother didn’t want Mu Ning to marry her, so she found him a rich and powerful young lady from the Jiang family.

"Chen Li had a fetal movement when she found out. She died in childbirth half a month ago. Alas, you didn't see it. The blood stained her body red at that time. She was pitiful."

Shen Huaixu let go of his hand, and the man sighed and walked away.

He looked at the elegiac couplet on the door and vaguely thought of the time when Nanzhi died.

For so long, he had been dreaming about her every night, and he didn't want to believe that she was really dead.

Seeing Mu Ning marry Miss Jiang, he felt hopeful, thinking that she had lied to him again.

But now, that hope has been killed again.

He turned around and walked towards the horse with difficulty step by step.

It wasn't until Shen Huaixu and others disappeared completely that Nanzhi came out from the corner.

Her stomach had flattened, and she sighed softly as she looked at the spot where he once stood.

"Shen Huai Xu, why are you so vigilant? I've been dead for so long, but I still can't deceive you?"

Looks like she has to change places.

Nanzhi moved to another nest.

She lived with her three children.

This time it was a little longer, and she had not met Shen Huaixu for two years.

She thought it could continue like this, but 003 reminded her that Shen Huaixu's blackening level could not be reduced and his life was still in danger.

"What happened to him?"

[Zhizhi, it’s too far away, I can’t sense anything specific. 】

Nanzhi had a headache.

He took his three children and set off overnight to Qingzhou.

After arriving in Qingzhou, she settled the three children, found someone to take care of them, put on a bamboo hat and went around the city lord's mansion.

Getting closer, 003 finally detected it.

[Zhizhi, in the past three years since your death, Shen Huaixu has been keen on raising snakes to summon souls. Half a month ago, he found a poisonous snake that looked very similar to you after you turned into a snake shape. He immediately called for a Taoist priest to take a look. Is there your soul in the snake? As a result, the snake suddenly attacked him. He was poisoned by snake venom, which was incurable. He was about to die. 】

After listening to this, Nanzhi felt that Shen Huaixu was really crazy.

"Isn't Nan Wan here?"

[No, Shen Huaixu doesn't seem to like Nan Wan, Zhizhi, he seems to like you. ]    Nazhi looked at the 80% love value and became irritated.

Love is really troublesome.

Currently, the City Lord's Mansion was heavily guarded and it was difficult for her to enter, so she had to transform into a snake again and crawl in carefully.

She followed 003's guidance and came to Shen Huaixu's room.

She climbed onto the bed and saw Shen Huaixu lying on the bed.

He was thinner than when she met him two years ago. Perhaps due to lack of sleep for a long time, his eye sockets were swollen and his lips were purple and black.

Nanzhi could barely smell his breath.

Outside the door, another son of the old city lord, the deposed young city lord Chu Haoting, was bringing people to test whether Shen Huaixu was dead.

As long as Shen Huaixu dies, he can become the city lord again.

Zheng Zhiyi was still struggling to stop him, but Nanzhi knew that he couldn't stop him.

Before Chu Haoting came in, Nanzhi quickly exchanged the antidote, transformed into a human form and leaned over to kiss Shen Huaixu's lips.

The antidote was transferred along her lips to Shen Huaixu's mouth, and slowly flowed in along the mouth.

Nanzhi left him and watched the color of his lips slowly return to normal before finally breathing a sigh of relief and turning into a snake shape and crawling away from the window.

Outside the door, Zheng Zhiyi couldn't stop him. Chu Haoting opened the door and walked in.

"Lord City Lord?"

Chu Haoting tentatively called Shen Huaixu, but when there was no response, he walked into the bedroom excitedly and opened the curtain.

He became even more excited when he saw Shen Huaixu lying motionless on the bed.

He stretched out his hand to test his breath. When he saw that there was no breath, he immediately announced.

"The city lord is dead. From now on, I am the city lord."

Following him were several men who were as cunning as him.

Seeing this, he immediately knelt down.

"Greetings to the Lord of the City."

Zheng Zhiyi rushed in and looking at this scene, he was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

"How shameless. The city lord is not dead. Get out of here!"

Chu Haoting crossed his arms and sneered: "That bitch Shen Huaixu is dead. If General Zheng knows this, please cooperate with me, otherwise I will kill you as soon as I become the city lord."

Zheng Zhiyi is an upright man. Although Shen Huaixu has done a lot of ridiculous things in recent years, which makes him a little disappointed, Shen Huaixu has also done a lot of good things that are beneficial to the development of Qingzhou.

As for Chu Haoting, since he was demoted to a idle official by the old city lord, he didn't want to reflect and make progress. He would only make friends with people as cunning as him and think about his position as city lord all day long.

Zheng Zhiyi knows better than anyone who is suitable to be the city lord.

He drew his knife and vowed to fight to the death.

Chu Haoting and others also drew their weapons.

"General Zheng, stop struggling to your death. You and Shen Huaixu will lose tonight."

Chu Haoting smiled proudly, "I don't mind telling you that the reason why the venomous snake bit Shen Huaixu was because I had someone sprinkle venomous snake-irritating powder on his clothes."

"Chu Haoting, how brave are you? How dare you murder the city lord?"

"A bastard who was raised by a peasant woman, a son-in-law who is a free-for-all, a bitch who ruined his body and exterminated his heirs, how can he be worthy of being the city lord?"

Over the years, Chu Haoting has found out the secret of Shen Huaixu's heirloom.

He made a lot of publicity in Qingzhou, but because Shen Huaixu had made many achievements, not many people dared to oppose him becoming the city lord.

Chu Haoting lost his patience.

Seeing that Zheng Zhiyi still refused to obey, he raised his hand and said, "Kill him."

The person behind him was just about to attack Zheng Zhiyi with a weapon when he suddenly heard a voice coming from the side.

"Let me see who dares?"
