Chapter 155 Mother and Daughter Falling off a Cliff
at dusk.
As soon as Gu Shi came out of the Dali Temple, he met Wang Ying who reported the news.
"My Lord, something bad has happened. The princess's men took Miss Shen away this morning. The old princess can't find anyone to change the medicine and is now furious."
Seeing Wang Yingying’s straight eyebrows were almost twisted into a knot.
An ominous premonition suddenly spread in Gu Shi's heart.
"what is going on?"
"I don't know the details yet, but I do know that the old princess's men went to ask for her but couldn't get her. Right now, the servants from both courtyards are at a stalemate in the main courtyard..."
Gu Shi only felt his eyebrows throbbing.
Neither of them is worry-free.
At this moment, Pei Wang also came hurriedly.
"Brother Gu."
Because of Gu Xiaoxiao's matter, Pei Wang took the initiative to lend a helping hand.
Gu Shi accepted Pei Wang's favor, so no matter whether he called him "Brother Gu" or "Brother Gu", Gu Shi could only respond.
"Master Pei."
He nodded slightly at Pei Wang.
Pei Wang walked up to Gu Shi, not caring that the other servants had not yet left. "My people discovered that the bandits in Liuxi Village were moving unusually. After a closer look, we found out that they had robbed people in the Rongjun Palace a few days ago and are now in Mulan Mountain..."
Pei Wang didn't say the rest of the words, but his eyes said it all.
Liuxi Village has a close relationship with the Su Mansion. Mumu found the Su Mansion's waist badge in Xiaoxiao's room...
Thinking of this, Gu Shi’s face suddenly turned pale.
"To Mulan Mountain."
Without any hesitation, he started running towards the west of the city.
Wang Ying caught up with Gu Shi, "Your Majesty, the mansion..."
"With Butler Qin here, there won't be any major problems for the time being."
Having said that, Gu Shi ordered Wang Ying to return to the mansion and transfer all the useful guards and secret guards in the mansion to Mulan Mountain.
At this moment, his thoughts had already been occupied by Shen Muxi and her daughter.
Whenever he thought about the possibility of the mother and daughter being in danger, his chest would ache. He didn't even dare to think about what he would do if something happened to them...
...
On the east side of Mulan Mountain is a cliff, and below the cliff is a deep, black pool of water.
On the cliff.
A man covered in blood was tied to a makeshift cross.
The man had no expression on his face, and he looked at the woman in front of him with a cold gaze.
Shen Muxi met Su Yong's eyes. The inhumane torture a year ago seemed like it was just yesterday. Shen Muxi felt pain in her body even when she breathed.
Su Yong's mouth was tightly stuffed with rags, his face was whipped, his clothes were tattered, and bleeding continued from multiple wounds.
At this moment, he looked at Shen Muxi as if he was looking at a dead person.
Facing the familiar cold gaze, Shen Muxi was not afraid at all. Instead, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. "You are so confident now, it's nothing more than thinking that your people will find this place. However, this time, I think you will be disappointed. The Su Mansion is now in trouble, and your bandit nest in Liuxi Village has also been targeted. Even if you survive this disaster, it won't be difficult for the Su Mansion to push you out as a scapegoat..."
Su Yong's expression changed slightly, but soon returned to normal.
Shen Muxi chuckled, "Do you know what you look like now?"
Without waiting for Su Yong's answer, Shen Muxi continued to speak, "You are now just a spent force, a stray dog.
You must still be holding out hope, thinking that since you worked so hard the past two days, Su Liuxi will surely soon become pregnant with your bloodline, and then you can bravely die to protect them both, right?"
Su Yong's pupils shrank slightly. He obviously didn't expect Shen Muxi to know so much about their affairs.
He moved his head and tried to spit out the rag in his mouth.
Shen Muxi glanced at the masked man behind him. The masked man roughly pulled the rag out of Su Yong's mouth and stabbed Su Yong's right hand with his backhand.
Su Yong groaned, and finally looked up at Shen Muxi, his eyes showing that he wanted to eat her alive.
"I have no grudge against you, why are you targeting me like this?"
Because he hadn't had a drop of water all day, his voice was as hoarse as a sword scraping against rusty iron.
"No injustice or enmity?"
Shen Muxi felt like she had heard a huge joke and laughed so hard that tears came out.
"Since you know there's no grudge between us, then why did you treat me so cruelly? A year isn't a long time. How come you've forgotten everything you did so quickly?"
a year ago...
Su Yong suddenly remembered the rainy night a year ago, when the woman cried and begged for mercy under him but ended up having her right hand chopped off.
He had never believed in ghosts or gods, and at this moment he was alone and weak, and he actually felt a chill running from the soles of his feet all the way to the top of his head.
"You...who are you?"
He asked calmly.
Shen Muxi walked up to him and did not answer his question. Instead, she raised her hand and stuffed a pill with a strange smell into his mouth.
The pill melts in your mouth.
Before Su Yong could even react to what was happening, the drug started to take effect.
The scene before his eyes began to overlap with the scene of Shen Muxi's torture and murder a year ago. The only difference from the scene a year ago was that this time Shen Muxi seemed to be still holding her daughter, looking at him with horror in her eyes.
The frightened look in her eyes, like that of a deer, made him feel a twisted sense of pleasure well up in his heart.
He didn't know where he got the strength from, but he broke free from the ropes and grabbed a knife.
He chased after Shen Muxi and her daughter and started hacking them.
"Shen Muxi" begged for mercy again and again.
"Please, let me and my daughter go."
"You're begging for mercy now? It's too late."
Su Yong had a grim smile on his face. After he slashed Shen Muxi with a knife, the hot blood splashed on his face. The pleasure in his heart was released, and the violent factors in his body seemed to have found an outlet for venting, which made his actions much faster.
When Shen Muxi begged for mercy, he took the opportunity to wield his sword and send her daughter to the west. "I can kill you once, and I can kill you a second time. If you want to blame someone, blame your bad luck. You could marry anyone else, but you chose to marry Gu Shi and block my Xier's way. When you and your little bastard die, everything in the Rongjun Palace will belong to Xier and my child."
He became more and more excited as he spoke, and finally pushed Shen Muxi to the edge of a cliff.
Shen Muxi held her daughter tightly in her arms to dodge his slashes and begged him desperately, "Please, let my daughter and I go. I promise I will never get in Liuxi's way, and I won't let Xiaoxiao cause any trouble to Yueyue."
Su Yong sneered, "You've only just realized this now? It's too late."
Perhaps knowing that she was doomed, Shen Muxi stopped dodging and held her daughter in her arms. Instead, she looked behind him desperately, her lips moving slightly and her eyes sad.
After being stabbed by him again, both mother and daughter fell off the cliff.
"No!! Mumu, Xiaoxiao!!"
Almost at the same time, a heart-wrenching scream rang out from behind Su Yong.
Su Yong's confused mind became clear again.
However, before he could react, he felt a sharp pain in his right hand, followed by his neck.
The head flying in the air could even see his body falling limply to the ground, with his right hand holding the knife falling alone on the other side.
His head rolled to Gu Shi's feet, tripping Gu Shi who was about to jump off the cliff after him.
Pei Wang, who finally caught up, quickly grabbed him and said, "Brother Gu, calm down. You calm down first."
