I circled around the body several times, but in the end I couldn't see any problems, and this young man was indeed dead.
It seems like this guy scared me before he died, right?
I gradually felt relieved, stepped forward to check on the other person's condition, and went through his pockets.
There were some spells and the like inside, which were basically useless, but one thing caught my attention. It was an old piece of parchment. I opened it and looked at it. What was recorded on it was actually the kind of magic spell he performed. technique.
However, this thing is obviously incomplete. It should be half a parchment scroll, with only a few tying techniques recorded on it.
Although this thing belongs to evil arts, it can indeed kill people. Maybe it can be used sometimes, so I put it away.
Then I went to the corner of the room and picked up the masked man and looked at it. The two eyes of the masked man were already cracked. It seemed that it was caused by the piercing technique the other party had just endured for me.
It's a good thing that I used the Puppet Substitution Technique in advance. Otherwise, even if it didn't kill me just now, my eyes would definitely be blind.
It's really a bit scary to think about it.
I put on my coat, turned around and looked at Gu Xiaorou, and found that she was still hiding behind the coffin, looking at me nervously.
"It's okay, come out."
I waved to her quickly.
Only then did Gu Xiaorou run out from behind the coffin, then she threw herself into my arms and started sobbing softly.
I was immediately at a loss, and I didn't know why this girl cried all of a sudden. Could it be that he was crying with joy because his great revenge was avenged?
Or is it because all your relatives are dead and you suddenly feel inexplicably sad?
Of course I couldn't guess the specific reason, so I could only gently pat Gu Xiaorou on the shoulder and comfort her.
I didn't take care of the young man's body, I just left him lying in the mourning hall.
The second half of the night was surprisingly quiet. Gu Xiaorou and I just sat by the charcoal stove and stayed quietly for half the night.
Not to mention that time flies by so fast, it’s daybreak in a blink of an eye.
I remember Einstein once said this, "You sit by the fire with someone close to you, and an hour passes, and it feels like only 5 minutes have passed. On the other hand, you sit alone by the hot stove." It's only been five minutes by the burning fire, but it feels like you've been sitting there for an hour."
Perhaps this is the so-called theory of relativity.
The next day I sent someone to the town to buy a new coffin, put the young man's body in it, and then ordered four holes. The four bodies were buried and buried at the same time.
In the words of the young man, "The dead need to be respected."
I think this can be regarded as a kind of respect. At least I gave him a simple funeral and buried him properly.
After finishing this matter, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
In the evening, the Gu family held another banquet to entertain guests. The relatives of the Gu family took care of this matter. I didn't wait for the banquet and came back directly.
After this busy life, I am very tired. Now I just want to have a good sleep and restore my mental state.
The matter with the Gu family has come to an end today. Although Gu Xiaorou is the only one left, I feel somewhat guilty about this matter, but there is nothing I can do about it. After all, the other party is determined to harm others. Hard to guard against.
If he hadn't come directly to my door last night and challenged me to death, I really wouldn't have been able to do anything to him.
I had something to eat in the evening, and then I went directly upstairs to sleep.
I don’t know if it was a psychological effect, but after I fell asleep, I actually dreamed of Gu Changqing. He repeatedly told me to take good care of Gu Xiaorou. He also said that all the luck of the Gu family lies with Gu Xiaorou. I will definitely marry her. Can make me prosperous.
After I woke up the next day, I thought about that dream, and I felt that it was really possible. After all, the Gu family only had a child like Gu Xiaorou, and the old man of the Gu family had a very difficult hole.
I think this is probably the reason why the person who tapped the acupuncture point asked the daughter of the Gu family to marry his grandson. In the end, it was for the sake of his descendants. Unfortunately, he couldn't control the acupuncture point, and instead harmed the future generations.
But now that acupuncture point has been moved long ago, it definitely doesn't have that effect anymore.
I looked at the sky outside. It was gloomy. There were scattered snowflakes falling from the sky. It looked like it was going to snow again.
I picked up the mobile phone Gu Xiaorou bought for me and looked at it. It was already past 11 o'clock in the morning, and I had really slept in a dark place.
Chen Ling and the others were not in the house, and I didn't see anyone when I went downstairs. I asked my mother and found out that several girls saw me holding my mobile phone and ran to town to buy it.
I was speechless for a moment. I originally thought that I would have time today to buy a mobile phone for Chen Ling, but he bought it himself.
After lunch, as soon as I opened the door of the shop in front, Gu Xiaorou came over.
She doesn't look very good today, and she even has dark circles under her eyes. It seems like she didn't sleep all night last night.
As soon as I saw this girl, I couldn't help but sigh.
Losing her parents was already a big blow to her. Now that the entire Gu family has been destroyed, she is the only one left living in that empty mansion. How can she sleep peacefully?
"Xiaorou, what are your plans next?"
I made a pot of tea, poured her a cup, and asked insinuatingly.
In fact, I hope she can find a good man to marry. Whether she recruits a son-in-law or marries him, she will have a family, and she will not be alone in this world without any relatives. nothing.
The Gu family's wealth should be enough for her to have enough food and clothing for the rest of her life. As long as she can find a good person, her life will definitely not be too bad.
"I don't know now."
Gu Xiaorou stared at the tea cup in front of her and said in a daze: "I don't live in that house anymore. It feels eerie at night, and I'm the only one. It would be nice if you were here."
Gu Xiaorou lowered her head as she spoke.
I didn't answer the question because I didn't know what to say.
And of course I can't be there.
If I were not married and had no wife, this would be an option, and it would definitely be a good choice. But I am married after all, so there is no possibility between me and her, and I don't want to give her any hope.
"Why don't you and your family move to my house? The house is too big anyway, and I don't dare live alone."
Gu Xiaorou suddenly raised her head and said, her eyes somewhat expectant.
