“Why didn’t you think like that just now?”
“Just now I thought he would live. Just now I didn’t know… his brother also died like this. I…” Mu Anxiao became nervous. “I don’t know if that method is feasible or not.”
The servant could no longer hear Mu Anxiao’s voice, but he could vaguely see Mu Anxiao’s troubled expression.
So, he said weakly, “Kind person, you look kind, I trust you. That money bag inside…” He still held Mu Anxiao’s sleeve. “There’s something signed by that woman with me… If she doesn’t believe you, show it to her. She’ll… believe.”
Mu Anxiao listened to the servant’s fluent words and looked at the hand tightly gripping her sleeve. She said, “I promise you, I promise you.” She thought he wouldn’t die anytime soon.
“You promised him?” Lin Yan was surprised.
“…” Mu Anxiao took a deep breath. “I’ve thought of a way.”
Lin Yan: “Okay.”
Mu Anxiao glanced at Lin Yan, then looked down at the dying servant and asked, “Um, can you tell me what kind of person the woman who paid you is?”
“Cultivation Sect.” After the servant spoke… he took a few deep breaths, then his head hit the tree, and he became still.
Mu Anxiao thought the servant would take a while longer to leave, but who knew… she was wrong. Everything happened so suddenly.
Of course, if it weren’t for this moment, she would definitely try her best to save him. But reality was so cruel, she couldn’t do that.
Helpless, she could only watch him die like this.
“Died with his eyes wide open, unable to rest.” The wolf demon looked down at the servant’s wide-open eyes and said indifferently.
“…” Mu Anxiao sighed, reached out, and pulled down the servant’s eyelids, saying, “So, the Cultivation Sect already existed at this time.”
“There are less than ten years until you and I go to the Cultivation Sect,” Feng Qi Shi reminded her.
Mu Anxiao heard this, then thought about the time. She stood up. “I forgot.” Saying that, she turned her head and inadvertently looked at the second servant walking towards them. She quickly squatted down and took out the signed item from the money bag.
The wolf demon: “What are you doing?” He had no sense of urgency, stood up, and glanced at the second servant walking slowly towards them.
Mu Anxiao ignored the wolf demon, casually glanced at the servant’s name, and mumbled, “Wang Wu.” Then she put the item back into the money bag and started crying loudly.
The wolf demon was startled.
Feng Qi Shi looked at Mu Anxiao’s instant crying and twitched the corner of his mouth.
Lin Yan sighed.
“Wang Wu, what’s wrong? Brother, you’re dead, what will your mother do?” As she spoke, she vigorously patted Wang Wu’s arm.
At the same time, the second servant, panting, stopped beside Mu Anxiao. “Who are you?”
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao cried out a couple of times, sniffled, and looked up at the second servant, who had one hand on his hip and was panting, tears streaming down her face. “You’re with him.”
“…” The second servant was bewildered. “Who are you?”
“I’m Wang Wu’s brother. I was just passing by here.” Mu Anxiao stood up, raised her hand to deliberately pinch her nose, and then started crying again.
The second servant: “…” He looked at Mu Anxiao pinching her nose with a completely confused expression, thinking of Wang Wu’s disgusting habit of wiping his nose with his hand, and said, “It seems you really are his brother.”
“My brother is dead,” Mu Anxiao said, releasing her hand from her nose, and then roughly wiping the snot and tears from her face with her other hand.
Hearing Mu Anxiao’s words, the second servant’s eyes flickered. “He probably got the same serious illness as the person he was traveling with.” 27kk
“Why are you so calm?” Mu Anxiao asked intentionally.
“I…” The second servant’s eyes deepened. “I’ve seen so much life and death on this journey, so naturally… I’m numb.”
Facing life and death, this second servant was clearly numb. He only came back now because he heard the woman’s words. However, facing the suddenly appearing Mu Anxiao, he became suspicious. “Why are you here?”
“You ask why I’m here,” Mu Anxiao retorted intentionally. “My brother said you would arrive before noon. I wanted to come and meet him, but who knew…” She started crying. “…he died.”
“The madam told me to come and see him and take him away,” the second servant looked down at Wang Wu. “He actually died of a strange illness, just like his brother.”
“You’re talking nonsense. My brother was in good health. It must be you…”
“What does it have to do with us?” the second servant interrupted.
This was the effect Mu Anxiao wanted, so she pretended to be unable to argue with him. “My brother just said that he wanted me to go and replace him, and I agreed. He…” She cried, “…died.”
“He told you?” The second servant’s heart sank.
“I promised him that I would go back with him to see his mother. This money was also earned by him for his mother. If he doesn’t get the money, what will happen to his mother’s illness? Brother, it’s too sudden, too sudden.”
Wang Wu had never mentioned his family affairs in front of the second servant and the others. Hearing Mu Anxiao say this now, the second servant thought that the woman was intentionally making things difficult for Wang Wu, and he felt sympathy. “Then… you come with me.”
“Huh?”
“Actually,” the second servant stared down at Wang Wu. “In my eyes, he was always my brother. His death also makes me feel bad. Since he found someone to replace him, then you go, but… I can take you. After we go, can you not say you know me?”
“Why?” Mu Anxiao knew that if she didn’t ask, it would arouse the second servant’s suspicion, so she spoke more.
The second servant: “You’d better not ask. Just listen to me.”
“…” Mu Anxiao sniffled and nodded. “Alright, I’ll listen to you.”
“Okay, I’ll go prepare a coffin now. You wait here.”
“Okay.”
With Mu Anxiao’s agreement, the second servant ran off.
Soon.
Lin Yan looked at the second servant and two old men pulling a coffin with a carriage in the distance with utter shock. “What’s going on?”
Mu Anxiao stood up and calmly watched the people approaching. “It’s arranged, of course.”
“How is it possible so quickly?” Lin Yan was confused.
Mu Anxiao glanced at Lin Yan and said nothing.
The wolf demon said impatiently, “The human heart is the most difficult to guess. They put on a front and act differently behind your back. This is also the usual practice of the Cultivation Sect. That woman might have already predicted Wang Wu’s death.”
“What about his soul?” Lin Yan was confused again.
“Who knows, probably…” The wolf demon tilted his head to look at the sky. “It will come out of his body in a while.”
“In a while,” Feng Qi Shi said. He looked down at Wang Wu and was stunned. “No.”
“What’s wrong?” the wolf demon asked Feng Qi Shi.
