Subconsciously, she checked the inside of the carriage and did not find any trace of an outsider. She shook her head and thought that she must have remembered wrongly or was sleepwalking.
She looked at the pillow and was lost in her thoughts. Of course, she knew who she had mistaken the pillow for.
After a while, she suddenly pressed her palm on the pillow, and the pillow that she had been relying on for sleeping turned into ashes.
She had to change her habit of hugging people in her sleep, even if she had to find a replacement!
After destroying the pillow, she suddenly thought of something. She raised her wrist and looked at it. Her wrist was in excruciating pain before she went to sleep, but now it did not hurt at all!
She removed the gauze on her wrist and found that there was only a light red line left on the wound. If she did not look carefully, she would not be able to see it.
She was stunned for a moment and sighed.
It seemed that the poison in the carriage was not too strong. It only caused her pain for half a night. The speed of recovery was normal after applying the medicine.
She moved her wrist to make sure that there was nothing wrong. She threw the gauze away and walked out of the carriage to continue with her own business.
The lake was not too big. Two days later, they could see the bottom of the lake. Gu Xijiu and the others stood on the shore and looked at the dried up lake. Everyone was shocked.
There were hundreds of the Resentful Spirit Fishes in the lake! These fish were hopping around in the mud, unwilling to give up. In the mud, there were countless broken bones, and no one knew how many of them there were …
Needless to say, this lake was the place where Rong Che created the resentful spirits. He put people into the lake and let them be eaten by the Resentful Spirit Fishes.
The bones at the bottom of the lake were the best proof!
Gu Xijiu's palms were sweating. When she was friends with Rong Che and visited him, they used to walk side by side by the lake. They even washed their hands in the lake.
She did not know that she was so close to death!
If Rong Che wanted to kill her, he only needed to push her into the water.
Then, she would be one of the bones in the lake!
It was strange. There were so many people who died in the lake, so there must be a lot of resentful spirits. She did not notice them when she was walking by the lake.
Did Rong Che dispose of the resentful spirits after he finished using them?
At that time, this person looked cultured, elegant, and distinguished. He was once the head of the Four Princes of the capital. Who would have thought that he was such a demon?
The figure of Di Fuyi flashed in her mind. This person had always been a schemer. It was not a random thing for him to suddenly come to her house to fish. Could it be that he deliberately took the opportunity to remind her to be careful of the man-eating lake?
Was he doing this for her own good?
Really?
Her heart rose and fell like a tide, and she suddenly wanted to see him.
She didn't know what she wanted to see him for, but once this idea arose, it couldn't be suppressed.
She took a deep breath. There should be a chance to meet him in the future …
…
Rong Jialuo had suppressed the news of Rong Che being a demon for the sake of their brotherhood, so the people did not know about it.
Many servants were shocked to see so many skeletons in the lake. They thought that it was the 'credit' of the fake Celestial Master Zuo, and they were filled with indignation.
Gu Xijiu did not say anything. She just ordered her men to bring the Resentful Spirit Fishes up and burn them. Then, he picked up all the corpses in the lake, pieced them together, and chose a place to bury them.
