Under the tip of the needle, she saw something swimming...

There is a thin silk-like rope on the tail of the needle, but the rope is bright red, as if it is drawing the heart blood of the girls.

Finally, everyone gathered on the big red coffin in the middle.

Chu Jiaojiao took a step forward, then her legs weakened. When she reached the red coffin and saw the person lying inside, her pupils almost shrank to the tips of needles!

The woman in the coffin showed a slender waist, but her belly button seemed to have a bloody hole.

A thin film formed on the blood hole, and she could clearly see insects swimming around in the blood hole, as if her belly was a pond...

Moreover, there were many needles inserted into her body, and dense bloody lines spread on her skin, forming a terrifying spider web on the woman's face.

But under the cobwebs, she could still see that face clearly...

That gorgeous face.

Lotus Concubine!

Brother Qi said that Concubine Lian was not feeling well these days and sent her back to her parents' home to stay for a while, but he didn't expect that she would be sent here.

Concubine Lian's abdomen was still rising and falling, which showed that she was alive.

Chu Jiaojiao shook her hands and wanted to lift up her clothes to take a look. As soon as she opened a corner, she started to vomit.

The strong smell of blood made her vomit, and the fear made her vomit.

She clutched her stomach and turned around to run when she suddenly saw a figure she was familiar with standing at the top of the stairs...

"Don't be afraid, they are still alive."

He came over and spoke so normally, as if those people were not humans but captive animals.

Then he came close to her again and patted her back gently, showing some helpless pampering.

"You said you were taking a walk. What are you doing here? It's not good for the children. Be obedient and don't come here again."

Every time he put warm pressure on her back, Chu Jiaojiao became as stiff as if she had fallen into frost.

He couldn't move his limbs, and for a long time, he stared at those frightened eyes.

He sighed, "Let's go out first and talk."

She finally regained her strength and pushed him away violently, "Your illness is cured!"

Lu Xing also responded, "Well, my illness is cured."

"So what are you doing, what are you doing!"

Brother Qi used 99 human lives to practice Gu, and she had no objection.

Because those people were those who deserved to be killed in the prison, and some were ruffians, so she felt it was understandable.

Seventh Brother is just doing harm to the people.

But now, what can these girls lying here do?

One of them is as young as ten years old!

Lu Xing also explained: "I have my uses. Don't worry. After this incident, I promise you that I will never use human lives to practice again..."

"Snapped!"

A crisp slap landed on his face.

Chu Jiaojiao's hands were trembling, her lips were trembling, and her tears were falling, "You are possessed, you are confused, you are crazy, can you wake up!"

"You used to practice Gu, blow up dams, and harm the prince. I understand that your life is not easy. I also convinced myself that this is a necessary means to rise to power. If I choose to support you, I should stand by you completely."

"I thought to myself, it would be great if you became the emperor. You must be a good emperor, but what will you do now?"

"You sent people to kidnap those people who disappeared for no reason in the capital, right? You are now the emperor and you are so high up. Why on earth, why do you still want to take the lives of innocent people?"

There was a hint of blood in Lu Xingyi's mouth.

Jiaojiao hit him for the first time.

Yes, she has always been upright and fierce.

So he hid it from her...

But unexpectedly, she came looking for him.

Lu Xingyi raised his back teeth and swallowed the smell of blood, "You have seen Ye Mengruo, right?"

Chu Jiaojiao tightened her palms and said, "No."

"She told you that I practiced Gu?"

"No."

"Where is she?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen her..."

"Jiaojiao, you are not suitable for lying."

The person sent to find Sun Yi yesterday finally got a reply. Sun Yi was gone and the cave was empty.

Sun Yi had been planning it for so long, how could he give it up so easily?

There was only one possibility: Ye Mengruo ran away, so Sun Yi gave up.

Lu Xingyi approached step by step, but there was pleading in his eyes, "I really have my reasons. I promise that after this matter is over, I will be a good emperor in the future and love my people like my son. I promise not to harm an innocent person again." Life, can I promise?"

Chu Jiaojiao stepped back, her tears blurred her vision and she couldn't see anything clearly.

She had believed in his promise so much, but the reality became crueler every time.

She pleaded innocently, "Brother Qi, these people are not dead yet, can you let them go? It's still too late to turn around now..."

Lu Xingyi shook his head, "Jiaojiao, I can't go back, and they can't live anymore."

"They know too much, and letting any one of them out will ruin my reputation. So, they all die, and no one can be left alive."

His eyes were suddenly sinister, which sent a chill down Chu Jiaojiao's back, like a dark wind blowing on the back of her neck, making the hair stand on end.

She wanted to retreat, but her steps were pinned and she couldn't move. She watched him wrap around her inch by inch like a poisonous snake.

Lu Xingyi hugged her in his arms and patted her back gently, "Jiaojiao, Ye Mengruo can't run away. If she runs away, all my years of hard work will probably be in vain."

"You have watched me step by step to get to where I am now. You know best how much I have suffered and how much I have suffered."

"Jiaojiao, tell me where she is, okay?"

His voice was gentle and light, but Chu Jiaojiao understood that it was all an illusion.

He is coaxing himself, he is using human life to practice Gu, he is no longer the seventh brother before.

She tried to calm down her emotions and leaned in his arms obediently, "Brother Qi, I really haven't seen Ye Mengruo. I just, Yun Wei came to see me today. I was in a bad mood. I went out for a walk and accidentally walked into This."

careless?

"How many careless steps does it take to get from Weiyang Palace to Fuyang Palace?"

Chu Jiaojiao's face turned pale and she promised eagerly, "Brother Qi, I really came here accidentally. Don't worry, even if I knew about it, I wouldn't tell it. I didn't tell you that you practiced Gu before. ,You believe me."

Lu Xingyi hummed, "I believe in you. I always believe in you. Be good and give me the medicine bottle."

Chu Jiaojiao trembled, "What medicine bottle?"

Lu Xingyi sighed, his palm spread down her arm, touched her cuff, and slowly took out a medicine bottle from her cuff.

"What did Jiaojiao do with this bottle of medicine?"

In this bottle are the poisonous insects that Concubine Lian takes every day.

Just now, Chu Jiaojiao endured her fear, opened Concubine Lian's clothes, and took it easily.

Lu Xingyi let go of her, turned the bottle around in his palm, and his smile faded, "Does Jiaojiao want to use this Gu insect as evidence to expose me?"

Chu Jiaojiao trembled her lips and shook her head.

"No, I won't expose you, I'm just curious..."

She just wanted to hold a bargaining chip, a bargaining chip that she could use to negotiate if he was unfavorable to the Chu family in the future.

Lu Xingyi's eyes slowly darkened, "Curious?"

"Jiaojiao, do you want to leave me?"

ps: I’ll take a day off tomorrow to figure out Lu’s ending.
