Gu Sinian prepared to leave with his grandmother and Aji.

I made an appointment with William and said we were going to the back mountain.

“William, if I go to the forbidden area with you, you will let Huo Yan go and make grandma’s funeral a complete success.”

I spoke on the phone with some tremors in my voice, not because I was pretending to be trembling, but because I was also very scared about what would happen in the forbidden area.

"I keep my word." William continued, "I'll come find you. Where are you?"

"I am at the gate of the forbidden area."

I have already walked into the forbidden area, and I feel that the magnetic field here makes me feel uncomfortable all over and dizzy.

If Huo Yan in the past stood here and used the lives of his entire clan to resurrect me, then how many people have reincarnated here and how many lives have been carried.

I felt so sick that I leaned against the wall and vomited for a long time.

Touching the baby in my belly, what will be waiting for me next?

I have to hold William back now to buy more time for Gu Sinian, so that grandma can leave safely and I can regret not going to the forbidden area.

"Does it hurt?"

When I was dry heaving, I heard William's magnetic voice coming from behind me. If I didn't know he was a bad guy, I would have thought he had a nice voice, good looks, and good abilities.

I thought about not wanting the position of head of the family, but I could give him all these.

It’s a pity that I can’t give him what he wants. He cares more about the art of resurrection.

I care more about the memories with my mother.

I stood up straight and smoothed the discomfort in my chest: "William, before you go in, can you tell me the story of your mother? If she can really be resurrected in there, when will she be reborn? If it was when you were young, you would seize the opportunity this time, right? Maybe I won't be around by then."

William looked at me with an unclear expression, but he still said softly, "She is very kind and gentle. She loves every plant and every animal here. She likes to laugh, and she cries secretly. The head of the family always trains her strictly to make her a qualified successor. Whether it is study, sports, or political tactics, I am her companion. She is very hardworking and diligent. If she does not do well, she will be punished by the head of the family to kneel in the ancestral hall. I was very young at that time. When I was punished to kneel, she always secretly took a cushion and stuffed it under my knees for me to cushion it. She knelt for several hours without any cushion."

When William said this, his eyes were full of tenderness, and he looked at my face with a gentle smile.

I felt a chill on my back. Did he miss my mother so much that when he saw me, he thought we looked alike?

"You're about to die, can you say anything more?"

I simply sat on the steps of the forbidden area because two ligaments in my abdomen were being pulled and it was uncomfortable to stand for a long time. I was afraid that it would have an impact on my child, so I sat down.

He didn't sit down but looked down at me.

I waved at him: "William..."

He didn't move, as if he was lost in some beautiful memories.

The magnetic field here really interferes with one's mind. I reached out to pull at the corner of his clothes and said, "Come sit together."

He smiled at me, then sat beside me, lowered his head and smiled helplessly: "When I was a child, I always made the master of the family angry and was punished. Your mother brought me to the forbidden area in the same way, and then sat on this step. I was stubborn and angry, and she patiently pulled me to sit on the steps. This scene, it turns out that twenty years have passed."

"William, you love Chen Xing, right?" I didn't say mother, but directly said her name.

William nodded: "Even if it's our last conversation before you leave."

Then he smiled firmly: "I love her, I love her with my life. She said she wanted to leave Xingchen, so I helped her leave. Later, the head of the family knew that I was the one who protected her when she left. He punished me and made me take over everything the heir had to do, including going to the snake's nest..."

He showed me the scars on his arms and legs: "These are all caused by snake bites."

I was so shocked that I was speechless. How could the process of becoming a family head be so terrifying?

"Are you shocked?" He looked at me sarcastically.

I nodded, and I could imagine the densely packed snakes wriggling in my mind.

"They are all poisonous snakes." He seemed to become proud again, as if the poisonous snake was a glorious moment in his life.

"The poisonous snake entangled me little by little, devoured me, and bit me. I didn't scream at all. As long as I thought that this was supposed to happen to Chen Xing, I was willing to bear it for her."

His face began to look a little more ferocious, sometimes smiling and sometimes looking arrogant.

"But why do you not have to endure any pain to become the young master? As long as you come back, you will be the only candidate for the head of the family! Why? Isn't it because Chen Xing sacrificed his life in exchange for your happiness, and because I suffered all the pain for you!"

It turns out that he hates me because everything I have seems to him to be something I got without any effort.

But all the scars on his body are shocking to me.

"Do you know how many times I have died for this position of Patriarch? I can give up the position of Patriarch, but all my efforts are not to wait for Chen Xing to come back, but to wait for the news of her death."

He looked at me with a sneer, as if he could strangle me to death in the next second.

"Yu Xinghe, I really hate your name. Why does it have a "Xing" but a "He"... Your appearance tells me that Chen Xing never missed me after he left."

My back froze in place. He really had a very deep filter for me.

"I know you're holding me back from opening the door to this forbidden area because you're afraid of death, but you also want your grandma to leave Xingchen safely." He suddenly smiled sinisterly and staggered to his feet: "I'll give you one last chance."

As he said this, he turned his back to me and walked away from me step by step: "Your grandma can leave safely, but someone must pay with their life for her departure!"

As he snapped his fingers, a group of guards surrounded Lin Xingran.

"Now that we've heard the story, let's play a killing game."

William smiled and dragged out a sack from behind and threw it at my feet.

I didn't even have the strength to stand up for a moment.

No matter who the person in the sack is, he is very important to me now and someone I cannot let go of.

My hands were shaking so much that I couldn't open the bag, and then I heard William say, "Guess who's in this?"

I shook my head.

"Don't dare to guess?" William leaned over and pulled my hand to press it on the rope of the sack. "If you don't open it, I will beat her to death in front of you."

what--

I was really scared and took several steps back, covering my ears.

Even though I had died once and had experienced numerous kidnappings and various situations, the scene of being beaten to death on the spot still shocked me.

It was just like that year, when Gu You killed those girls in the orphanage in front of me.

Everything was vivid in his mind, and he shook his head like crazy: “William, I’ll open it myself.”

The person I was thinking about was Gu Sinian. Could it be him?

The more I thought about it, the more scared I became. He had just arrived at my Star Palace and looked sick and weak. If he was beaten to death by William because of this incident again.

Holding his trembling hands, he untied the string of the bag little by little.
