Chapter 445: Someone From the Demon Cult
A few more riders came from the front, missed the second rider, and followed the carriage far behind.
The one following the carriage was naturally a disciple of Wandong Tianfu. Although Li Wuhua didn't dare to stop him, he couldn't let the old man take him away casually. Naturally, he had to send someone to follow him first, and wait for Wandong Tianfu's final decision...
Inside the house, Hai Ruyue wandered anxiously, every passing minute was a torment for her, both worrying about her son and worrying about her own fate, she caressed her belly from time to time.
There were footsteps outside the door, and Zhu Shun stumbled in while holding on to the door frame. Although he was not seriously injured when he was bounced away by the old man's wave, the fall was hard enough for his age.
He couldn't walk easily, but he still managed to come over, closed the door under Hai Ruyue's gaze, and limped up to Hai Ruyue, with a sad expression on his face, "Ma'am, what's going on? "
Knowing that he is loyal to the Xiao family, Hai Ruyue is very worried about Xiao Tianzhen's safety, "I also want to know what's going on."
Zhu Shun's eyes fell on her abdomen where nothing abnormal could be seen, "Ma'am, is what the ghost doctor said true?"
Hai Ruyue covered her lower abdomen with her hands, closed her eyes and shook her head, with an unbearable expression on her face, "Zhu Shun, I have told you about Chiyang Zhuguo, you should understand our situation, Wandong Tianfu has already started to attack, we must find a way to deal with it ourselves." Paul, I can't help it either."
Zhu Shun trembled all over, staggered back two steps, and said with trembling voice: "Whose is it?"
He already knew that Hai Ruyue was having an affair with other men, not just one man, not just Li Wuhua. Before Hai Ruyue had that kind of relationship with Li Wuhua, he was a little unclear with some important officials in Jinzhou Not sure.
In this regard, he has always turned a blind eye.
He also understands that it is really difficult for the orphans and widows to continue to survive when the Xiao family has reached that point, and Hai Ruyue, as Princess Zhao, actually has nothing to win people's hearts. Zhao Guo's court was eager to control Jinzhou, so how could it give resources to the eldest princess. The only useful thing left for the eldest princess is beauty.
From his point of view, Hai Ruyue made sacrifices for the Xiao family, heartbroken and helpless, she could only support her.
With a sound of "boom", the door was kicked open, and Li Wuhua stood outside the door with a gloomy face, staring coldly at the sea like the moon in the room.
After reporting the situation urgently and making arrangements, he rushed over immediately.
The people in the house were startled, Li Wuhua stepped in, and when he passed Zhu Shun, he shouted: "Get out!"
Zhu Shun bowed his head sadly and limped away.
Hai Ruyue was retreating step by step, and was forced to retreat by Li Wuhua who was approaching step by step. Li Wuhua stared at her abdomen. She subconsciously covered her belly with her hands, bumped into the chair, fell down and sat down. The face is tense.
Standing in front of her, the condescending Li Wuhua asked the same question, "Whose is it?"
Hai Ruyue was nervous and frightened, showing off her sympathy, she was about to cry and said, "Who else do you think it could be?"
Li Wuhua's cheeks twitched. In fact, he also guessed that during Hai Ruyue's house arrest for more than half a year, other men except him could not hook up with Hai Ruyue at all.
Even though she knew that the flesh and blood in her belly belonged to her, Li Wuhua was still angry, bang! Waving his hand was a resounding slap across the face, causing Hai Ruyue to collapse on the chair, "Bitch, have you stopped the elixir for your body?"
Hai Ruyue covered her instantly red and swollen face, slowly sat up straight, and said with tears, "I knew it a long time ago, it's not a elixir for nourishing my body at all, it's a medicine to prevent the dark knot in my fetus."
Li Wuhua showed a ferocious expression on her face, "You did it on purpose, you think you can be saved by this?" He stared coldly at her abdomen, and slowly clenched his fist with one hand.
Hai Ruyue realized what he wanted to do, covered her abdomen with both hands, and urgently persuaded: "I know you want to kill me, but you have also seen the situation in Jinzhou. The Xiao family has been run by several generations. There are people who are deeply involved with the Xiao family in politics and business. Even if I order them all to be cleaned up, it is impossible not to cause any turmoil. No one below wants to see their family business destroyed. With so many people involved, Wandong Tianfu didn't dare to clean it forcefully, it could only take it slowly, and doing so would also weaken Jinzhou's strength, and it wouldn't do Wandong Tianfu any good?"
"Zhen'er was taken away by the ghost doctor, which solved Chiyang Zhuguo's future troubles, and proved that Zhen'er's illness was indeed related to the ghost doctor. Who can question the ghost doctor's inability to cure Tianyin's damaged pulse? Currently, Jin'er can be stabilized. I am the only candidate for the situation in the state. When Wandong Tianfu has no worries, why should we weaken the strength of Jinzhou? Why do you want to make trouble for Wandong Tianfu? Will consider it!"
"You heard what the ghost doctor said. I have a son in my stomach, your son. As long as I can continue to sit in Jinzhou, the power of Jinzhou will belong to your son sooner or later. Your son will be the governor of Jinzhou in the future! Wu Hua, you have no children and no daughters all your life, don’t you want to leave some incense for your family in this life? The ghost doctor said that the baby in my stomach is a son, don’t you believe the ghost doctor’s vision? The flesh and blood in my stomach belongs to you Son!"
It was as if she had grasped the last straw.
Li Wuhua clenched his fist, his eyes flickered, his face was cloudy...
The old eighth of Fufangyuan came back to Niu Youdao's hiding place.
Lao Ba stayed in Jinzhou not only to facilitate communication with Jinzhou, but also as a hostage held by Wandong Tianfu. If Xiao Tianzhen was not returned, Lao Ba would never come back alive.
When Sunny Mountain was negotiating with the ghost mother, Guan Fangyi sent Lao Ba to go, and Jinzhou sent Lao Ba again this time, which shows that Lao Ba is good at communication and negotiation.
"Ghost doctor?" Niu Youdao, who was pouring tea for Lao Ba by himself at the stone table, was surprised, "Ghost doctor Hei Li took Xiao Tianzhen away?"
The old eighth nodded: "That's right, Xiao Tianzhen returned to Jinzhou Fucheng, and he was robbed by the ghost doctor Hei Li before he stepped into the governor's mansion. The people from Wandong Tianfu told me about it. Wandong Tianfu asked me to say something." Talk to Master Dao, and say that for the sake of Master Dao’s trustworthiness, don’t argue with Master Dao, and say that the matter is over, so you don’t want to make a fuss about it anymore, don’t think they dare not turn against Nanzhou and make trouble. Getting up is not good for everyone, let you calm down!"
Niu Youdao frowned, wondering if Wandong Tianfu was playing tricks, lest he continue to make a fuss about it. But thinking about it, it's not right, Wandong Tianfu has no reason to leave Xiao Tianzhen to take risks, that is to say, the ghost doctor's apprentice's treatment, really alarmed the ghost doctor, the real god himself?
This was not unfounded. Jinzhou had never made it public about the treatment by the ghost doctor's disciples before, because the ghost doctor had the style of a ghost doctor and didn't like publicity. It wasn't until they started threatening to send troops here that Wandong Tianfu probably got a little scared, so they let out some rumors and wanted to clear up the relationship, but it really provoked the ghost doctor.
Such a thing would happen, which Niu Youdao had never thought of before anyway, it really made him speechless.
Guan Fangyi on the side was also surprised that Hei Li, a ghost doctor who had never been seen before, appeared with a clear goal, which was to rush to Xiao Tianzhen.
Niu Youdao here made a fuss about Xiao Tianzhen, Wandong Tianfu was also pinched because of Xiao Tianzhen, and now even the ghost doctor came to Xiao Tianzhen, if Xiao Tianzhen was said to be fine, she would not believe it if he was killed.
Guan Fangyi's bright eyes kept flickering, and she stared at Niu Youdao suspiciously, as if she wanted to see a flower.
Yuan Gang standing by also frowned, not expecting such a thing to happen.
"What does the ghost doctor want to take Xiao Tianzhen away?" Niu Youdao asked.
Lao Ba shook his head: "I don't know, I didn't see it, and Wandong Tianfu didn't say anything."
"The ghost doctor would actually intervene. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse." Niu Youdao couldn't help sighing, then reached out to invite Lao Ba to drink tea, and said a few words of hard work.
After Lao Ba left, Niu Youdao asked Guan Fangyi again, "You know a lot of news, do you have any special news about that ghost doctor?" He wanted to know as much as possible, so he had to be prepared .
Guan Fangyi sat with her legs crossed, waving her round fan, and said, "This man is haunted by ghosts. I don't know any news about him. There are only rumors about him in the practice world. It is difficult for ordinary people to find him. By the way , I heard people say that the ghost doctor might be a member of the Demon Cult."
"Evil Cult?" Niu Youdao was taken aback, and asked, "How?"
Guan Fangyi said: "It is said that it is difficult for others to find the ghost doctor, but only the previous saint of the Devil Cult can find it easily. It is said that the ghost doctor obeyed the saint's words, and that the ghost doctor owed the saint's favor to join the devil. After the death of the saint, the ghost doctor left the devil's religion. I don't know if it's true or not, and the person who said this also heard it from other places."
saint? Niu Youdao tried to ask, "The last saint of the Demon Cult was the one who was involved with Zhao Xiongge?"
Guan Fangyi was slightly startled, then giggled and said, "I forgot that you came from the Shang Qing Sect, that's right, that demon saint who had an affair with Zhao Xiongge, the abandoned student of the Shang Qing Sect, in terms of seniority, Zhao Xiongge should be your teacher." Uncle, right? If the rumors I heard are true, Zhao Xiongge may know the ghost doctor, or you might as well ask Zhao Xiongge to inquire about it, it must be better than asking me."
Niu Youdao served tea and water, don't ask, he didn't like others to associate him with Shang Qingzong.
However, Guan Fangyi refused to let it go, "I said, Lord, our eighth brother was a hostage in Jinzhou for your sake, and he almost didn't even know how he died. Now that he is back, should I give an explanation?" Now, what secret is hidden in that Xiao Tianzhen?"
Niu Youdao squinted at her, "There are some things that don't need to be explained, and you don't dare to tell him if you know."
Guan Fangyi let out a chuckle, "It depends on your sincerity, it's up to me whether to tell people or not."
"You really want to know?" Niu Youdao looked at her playfully.
His expression made her feel uncomfortable, and felt that the other party had no good intentions, but she still couldn't help being curious, and said decisively: "Think!"
Niu Youdao was also straightforward this time, "Xiao Tianzhen suffers from the terminal illness of Tianyin damaged pulse."
"You don't need to say this, I know."
"You know? Xiao Tianzhen's terminal illness was actually cured by me."
"You? You still have this ability? No, what does this have to do with the things going around in front of you?"
"I stole something from the Ice and Snow Pavilion to treat Xiao Tianzhen."
"..." After being speechless for a while, Guan Fangyi's face changed, as if she understood something, she stood up abruptly, turned around and left, shouting loudly, "Xu Lao Liu, hurry up and pack up, leave!"
