Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter

Chapter 225 Being possessed by the Queen of Fairyland

He Danggui yelled at Chang Nuo as if she saw a ghost, “Are you crazy or am I crazy? Or are all the immortals in the sky crazy to make such the thing happen? You’re talking nonsense, right? I’ve never told him that what I hate the most is the man who beats women.”

Chang Nuo didn’t understand why He Danggui, an even-tempered girl, suddenly became so angry. He was surprised, “That is what he said, which is definitely true! I am sure that he is the one who never does such cruel things, so you can’t misunderstand him!”

He Danggui said coldly, “I’ve never misunderstood him, but the person misunderstanding me is you. Even though the wall in Luo’s Mansion is quite high, it can’t prevent Wulin seniors from climbing over it. And the seniors are not only you and Lord Ning, but also other ones who appreciate the Bitter Bamboo Grove and the caves in this grove, such as the assassin wearing a mask 3 years ago. Have you heard anything from Lord Ning and Ming Yue? That assassin has stayed in Luo’s Mansion for several days. But the crow case and the corpse case respectively have come to here since he lived in. What’s more, someone had witnessed that he flew to the Bitter Bamboo Grove after sucking human blood. So, I inferred that he healed the wounds in the cave at that time.”

It dawned on Chang Nuo, “You mean all the things were done by this assassin who wore a mask?” Just like what he said, a fussy person like Yuan would not like others’ concubine. It turned out that he misunderstood.

Nodding at first, He Danggui then shook her head, and said, “The common man never kills his sworn enemy by such a cruel mean, let alone my Elder Cousin who has no enmity with others. I heard that from him. Therefore, the murderer is definitely a man of extreme personality. I have only seen 2 or 3 people like that. Although the masked assassin practiced abnormal arts, his words and deeds were still normal. When he robbed me that day, he was not as fierce as I had imagined, so I am not sure if he could remove the dead’s chin and take the baby in the womb. What I said before is just a guess, without any evidence. Zhoushi, tell me, when did Lord Ning tell you personally that what I hate the most is the man who beats woman?”

He Danggui steadily stared at Chang Nuo’s eyes, and thought, “Don’t scare me, please! What does Zhu Quan know on earth? Did he recall the memory of the previous life? How much did he recall? Why didn’t he kill her who was his enemy of the previous life as soon as possible?”

“When I slept with him about 2 years ago, he said it out somehow. But I don’t remember it clearly because I was going to fall asleep at that time.” Taking a deep breath, Chang Nuo urged her, “Hurry up. No wonder everyone says the Bitter Bamboo Grove is haunted, now I feel a little scared. Come on, let’s get out of here through arts of lightness. Qingyi, leave Luo’s Mansion with me and wait for Lord Ning in my separate courtyard.”

He Danggui got mad at him, “You have professed to be an old friend of mine for several hours and said you would respect me. But finally, you still force me to do something I don’t want to do, right?”

Chang Nuo hastened to placate her, “I am just worrying about your safety. Moreover, if the Lord can see you as soon as possible after enduring the hardships of a long journey from the capital to Yangzhou City, he will exult! I absolutely respect your idea of ancestor worship in Luo’s Mansion. I will take you back at that day, okay?”

He Danggui pointed at her red eyes, and said, “I have told you that I have a disease, no spa no life. If I don’t take a bath in hot spring, my eyes will become red. After a while, my nose, ears and eyes will bleed all the time. Then, I will die. Zhoushi, is there a hot spring bathing pool in your separate courtyard?”

With the same experience at last time, Chang Nuo was no longer cheated by her. He sneered and said, “Girl, I am an old hand who has seen the world. And your little tricks can’t cheat me...”

Then his eyes suddenly opened wide and his voice stopped abruptly, because the gorgeous girl in front of him was suddenly bleeding while walking. Besides, when she was still bleeding, she said like an ordinary person, “It’s better to go at noon after tomorrow. You can pick me up in the name of Miss Feng. And during these 2 days, you try to find a spring that can stably get hot spring water. Well, you see, I didn’t lie to you.” She turned her head and showed her beautiful but scary face to him. “As long as I don’t take a bath in hot spring, I will become like this. Even sometimes I will go crazy and bite people. You don’t want me to bite Lord Ning, right?”

Getting a fright, Chang Nuo frowned and said, “Don’t say anything. I will take you to Tao Yao Yard for hot springs bath!” This exactly was a strange disease that he had never seen before!

He Danggui declined while bleeding, “But, I have to do something else, so I have no spare time to take a bath. You just go, Zhoushi. And give me some time to dress up, so you can take me in 2 days. I haven’t seen Lord Ning yet for 3 years, so I have to primp myself beautifully for him, right?” Every time she said a word, the corners of her mouth would spill a little blood, looking so scary.

Looking at her appearance, Chang Nuo was so anxious, and said, “What haven’t you done yet? I will help you, and you just immediately go back for bathing. And I will take you to a master, whose medical skill is on a par with Senior Lord Luo Maitong. And he deserves to be called the second person at the present age.”

Hearing that, He Danggui thought, “I am the first one at this time. The ranking of the master is behind Senior Lord, so he should be the third. Who is so great as Senior Lord?” Then she asked, “Who is the one you called master? I have never heard someone whose medical skill can keep pace with Senior Lord’s.”

“He is Qi Xuanyu, Imperial Astronomer of Qintianjian Celestial Prefecture.” Chang Nuo given a brief introduction, “He is a skillful Taoist priest. In his early years, he learned from Maoshan Taoist school. He is proficient in astrology and divination. Moreover, his medical skill is unique, which is quite different from that of ordinary doctors. When you meet him, you will understand. Just because he seldom treats diseases for people, his medical name has not spread. Qingyi, you look so terrible. Everyone who sees you will be scared at dawn. What are you going to do? Let me do it for you. Don’t you trust me?”

Then, He Danggui held up her fingers and said, “First of all, go to the main hall and put on a fire. Burn all the powder inside and then leave. Don’t let others see you set fire. Second, I have replaced the bottle of afrodyn in your sleeve with Huaqing Powder. If you touch this powder a little, you will cast off the skin of your face. It will take at least half a month to restore. You sprinkle this powder on the thing shared by my Second Uncle and my Second Aunt. After they touch it, you steal it and throw it away. In this way, they will leave some sequelae after they touched the powder of the poisonous stone, which can prove my innocence. Third, you lie on the roof of Concubine Hua, the concubine of my Second Uncle, and watch for a while to see if she is really crazy or pretending to be crazy. After you find out, you go directly to Xiaoyou and tell him the truth. Don’t disturb me enjoying a hot spring. Fourth...”

Hearing this, Chang Nuo couldn’t help interrupting her, “Well, you’ve planned to use me for working for you, right? You did steal the afrodyn, and when did you exchange it on earth?”

“I am not using you.” Tears of blood was flowing from her eyes. She smiled and said, “For you, it’s just a little bit of help. What’s more, I am looking such an appearance like a ghost all thanks to you. So, it’s reasonable for you to do me a few favors. As for afrodyn, if you like it, I will give you 2 more bottles next time. Well, the fourth thing is, when you give an invitation to Madam Luo, you should explain to her that our relationship is foster cousin not lover, and ask her not to talk about marriages with Mrs. Feng. You have no idea that Bai Yangbai disguised himself as you caused a lot of troubles in Luo’s Mansion last night. Since you admire him so much, you can clean up the mess for him.”

Chang Nuo got mad at her for he was fooled all night. But he felt sorry for her appearance being full of blood, so he advised her to take care. Then he went to deal with the aftermath of what she and Taoist Sage had done last night as he had been told. Chang Nuo thought since she had engaged to the Lord 3 years ago, she would be the Lord’s princess sooner or later, who was also his master. It was nothing to listen to her once in a while.

After coaxing Chang Nuo away, He Danggui breathed a long sigh of relief. The high tension and intense emotion of the whole night had seriously overdrawn her physical strength. However, she received a lot of Zhenqi from the man wearing the Feng Yang’s mask, which made her pulses like race now. According to the experience of bleeding from all the 7 openings of her head 3 years ago, she sealed several acupoints on her body with silver needles, resulting in the same effect as that time when she fell in front of Lord Ning. Successfully, she cheated the man with the mask of Feng Yang’s face. It was very dangerous. She was almost robbed by him before she could inform anyone and ask for help from anyone!

After she untied her acupoints and wiped away the blood on her face, she quietly avoided the people who had already got up and started working at dawn, and rushed back to Tao Yao Yard as soon as possible. At this time, the courtyard was as quiet as if there was no one in it. However, when He Danggui approached the door of her boudoir, she heard the sound of a person breathing inside. Then she poked a gap in the door and saw that the person inside was Chan Yi. With a sigh of relief, she pushed the door in and carefully closed it.

Without waiting for Chan Yi to make any radical reaction to her bloody and untidy appearance, He Danggui made a silent gesture with her left index finger and said, “It is a long story. In short, I haven’t been hurt. And I’ll tell you what happened after I take a bath. Pour me the bath water, my dear Chan Yi!”

However, Chan Yi came to grab He Danggui’s hand and said anxiously, “Something is wrong, Miss. I saw Huai Hua just now, who said that Biddy Ma declared herself to be possessed by the Queen of Fairyland, so she can cure all kinds of diseases if people believe her! We all know that she is a fake witch, but Governor Lu believes her. What should we do now? I’m so worried about Sister Zhen Zhu. It is very dangerous for she is pregnant. Let’s find a way, Miss!”

He Danggui questioned with doubts, “Huai Hua? Which one?”

Chan Yi said, “Huai Hua has went to take care of pregnant Sister Zhen Zhu for 3 months. Miss, have you forgotten her?”

He Danggui asked tentatively, “Are you sure that person is Huai Hua? Is that her voice?”

Chan Yi was so angry and nearly jumped, “My dear Miss, you are still joking at this time,” she said ruthlessly, gritting her teeth, “I tell you the truth. That Buddy Ma is not someone else, but my Master Tai Shan! She came to my Sister Zhen Zhu this time and brought Sister Zhen Zhu’s former husband’s family, so she must have no good intention! Miss, my Sister Zhen Zhu is up to you. Please think of a way while taking a bath!”
