Fish only seek revenge, not leap over the Dragon Gate

Chapter 112: Scare Wen to death, debt from previous life, to be exacted in this life

Lu Yu put on Zhong Kui's mask and came to Wen's bedside. He poked Wen with his hand, and Wen woke up slowly.

What caught his eyes was a horrifying ghost face. His throat suddenly felt like it was stuck. He gulped a few times, closed his eyes, and passed out.

Lu Yu took out a bucket of ice water and poured it on the bed, thinking that Wen would be woken up, but there was no reaction.

Lu Yu frowned and probed towards her nose, his brows furrowed even tighter, he was actually scared to death.

She was so cheap.

Lu Yu went to Liu Yuzhu's room in a depressed mood, and as soon as he entered, he found Lu Xian sitting inside.

Lu Yu looked at Lin Ruquan behind him. Lin Ruquan shook his head. He didn't know why he was here. When he came to knock out the night watch maid, Lu Xian was not there.

Seeing Lu Yu, he was not surprised at all, and just asked calmly, "Yuzhu has become like this, she can no longer be a hindrance to you, what do you want?"

In the past two years, Lu Xian often suffered from insomnia, and even when he fell asleep, he always felt restless.

Today was another sleepless day. He didn't want to disturb Liu Yuzhu's sleep, so he drank alone in another yard.

When I came back from drinking, I found something was wrong and I guessed what was going on.

So I sat here and waited.

Lu Yu walked over to the round table and sat down opposite him. He stared at him for a while, then asked with a smile, "Dad, you haven't given me my birth gift yet."

Lu Xian's expression froze, and he finally avoided her gaze, "Sorry, it's not finished yet."

Lu Yu was not angry, he just smiled and said, "Oh, I see!"

There was no questioning, no accusation, which made Lu Xian feel even more uncomfortable.

He didn't understand why his family had become like this. If everyone could live in harmony, it would probably be a very happy family!

Lu Xian remained silent for a long time. Lu Yu jumped off the stool and walked towards the bed. When Lu Xian saw her move, he immediately stopped her.

"Yuzhu has been miserable enough, so any resentment or hatred she may have suffered has been offset."

Lu Yu raised his head and looked at him, "She is indeed miserable, but not miserable enough, because you protect her, Xiao Yuer can't do some of the things he wants to do to her."

"So, this hatred and resentment can never be eliminated."

Lu Xian looked into her eyes and was shocked. He saw deep hatred in her eyes.

Why did she hate Yuzhu so much? Was it because of Qin Shu's death?

He shook his head, his intuition told him that it was impossible. Although Yuzhu had something to do with Qin Shu's death, he couldn't blame her entirely. Qin Shu also had his own reasons.

He asked tentatively: "Xiao Yu'er, do you want to avenge your mother?"

"No." Lu Yu shook his head. "She has already avenged her mother's death in her current state. What Xiao Yuer wants to do to her next is just revenge for himself."

Lu Xian was even more confused. What kind of hatred could there be between Yuzhu and Xiaoyuer?

Xiaoyuer had almost no contact with Yuzhu before she was three years old. Although there were frictions between them after Qin Shu's death, it did not lead to such a great hatred.

Could there be something going on between them that he didn't know about?

"What on earth did Yuzhu do to you in private?"

Lu Yu tilted his head and smiled, "There are so many, too many to count."

Lu Xian was confused and carefully recalled everything that happened after Qin Shu's death.

Is there something he missed?

Looking at him like this, Lu Yu knew what he was thinking and curled his lips. It was strange that he could think of that.

Lu Xian really couldn't think of it. He looked at Lu Yu pleadingly, "Xiao Yu'er, can you tell Daddy what happened between you two?"

Lu Yu lowered his eyes and said, what's the point of telling you? Let's not talk about whether you believe it or not. Even if you know, you will pretend not to see it or just try to smooth things over, just like in your previous life.

She looked at the person on the bed with regret. With Lu Xian there, she thought that the rice prepared in the space could not be fed to her mouth.

It was such a bummer. One was scared to death and the other was being guarded, so there was no way they could do anything. None of their purposes for coming here were achieved.

He walked out sullenly with his hands behind his back.

"Little fish..."

Lu Yu stopped, looked back, and finally said, "The debt of the previous life, I will pay it in this life."

After saying this, she used her Qinggong skills to fly away.

Lin Ruquan glanced at Lu Xian quietly and followed him.

Lu Xian stared at Lu Yu's disappearing figure for a long time, unable to come back to his senses. In his mind, the six words Lu Yu said kept echoing: "Debts from previous life, to be paid in this life."

The next day, Lu Yu set off, traveling light. At the gate of the Duke's Mansion, Lu Yu said goodbye to his grandfather.

"Grandfather, Xiaoyuer is gone, please take care of yourself!"

"Whenever you encounter a problem, whether it can be solved or not, please tell Xiaoyuer. Don't treat Xiaoyuer as a child. It's for your own good if I don't tell you."

Lu Jingmo stood in front of him and reached out to tie her cloak again.

"Don't worry, Grandfather won't hide anything from you. Similarly, if you have any problems, you should tell Grandfather. Don't think that Grandfather is too old and you can't let him worry about it."

Lu Yu grinned, "Grandfather is not old at all. There are many people in the capital who want to be Xiao Yu'er's step-grandmother."

"But the Wen family is blocking the way, and grandfather's peach blossoms are cut off one after another."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Lu Jingmo glared at him with a stern face.

Lu Yu chuckled, thinking that the Wen family member who was blocking the way had passed away last night. Once the funeral was held, his grandfather would probably be surrounded by peach blossoms.

Although my grandfather is over 40 years old, he has always taken good care of himself and has taken marrow cleansing pills, so he looks only about 30 years old now.

If he shaved off the deliberately grown beard, he would definitely look only about twenty-two or twenty-three years old.

Lu Jingmo was too lazy to pay attention to her. He turned to Lu Yun, Zhang Feng and the two little grandchildren and said, "If you have anything to say or send, hurry up."

After saying that, Lu Qingshu and Lu Qingci came up to Lu Yu.

"Sister, I will go... to see you when I grow up a little." Lu Qingshu said this only to realize that he had no idea where his sister was going, so he thought about asking his grandfather later.

Lu Qingci also said: "Yes, I will definitely come to see you then."

Zhang Feng also agreed with a smile, "Then our whole family will come to see you."

Lu Yun also smiled and nodded.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come." Lu Yu said sincerely.

During these two years, her aunt often complained to her over trivial matters.

But these were common frictions in life, so she wasn't angry at all.

The two older brothers' personalities were restrained by their aunt. They appeared to be well-behaved on the surface, but were actually very rebellious at heart.

And she likes such rebellious brothers, so she gets along well with them.

My eldest uncle was the crown prince, a true scholar, without any martial arts skills. Because of the relationship between my grandfather and the emperor, he did not hold any official position.

So he took in students and taught them at home, but there were not many students.

Because many people know that the Duke's Mansion has a bad relationship with the emperor, if one becomes Lu Yun's student, it is very likely that his official career will be cut short.

But my uncle didn't care. The so-called icing on the cake does not make people surprised, but helping others in times of need will make people remember it for a lifetime.

What my uncle wants is someone who dares to interact with the Duke's Mansion under such circumstances.

This is also one of the criteria my grandfather uses to select people.

Not far outside the city, Lu Yu stopped and looked at the thirty-three-story tower under construction. She originally planned to destroy the foundation of the tower.

But Grandfather and Taoist Priest Xizu disagreed, saying that building the tower would be good for them.

First of all, building a tower would cost a lot of money and manpower, and would definitely arouse resentment from the people.

As a result, the reputation of both the emperor and Wuwang among the people will drop rapidly.

In this way, future uprisings will be more effective with less effort.

There is another benefit. Taoist Master Xizu said that the thirty-three-story tower was built by taking one-third of the ninety-nine-story tower.

Although it is not as useful as the Ninety-Nine-Story Pagoda, it is hundreds of times better than other altars.

Therefore, after the tower is built, it will be of great use to him.

Of course, the prerequisite is to kill Wuwang and completely occupy Huachao.

After hearing this, Lu Yu gave up the destruction.

A smile appeared on her lips. I'll let you build it, and then you can take it over when you're done.
