Chapter 163 Covering up
Chapter 163 Covering up
But now, she has other troubles.
Because the guards in the safe zone had heard the commotion and were surrounding her.
Others didn't know what was going on and just thought she was causing trouble.
This is why Yu Yao didn't use the Nine-Flower Jade Belt, talismans, or the Silent Moon Killing Technique.
The more you use it, the easier it is for others to discover your identity.
That would increase the chances of the humanoid zombie finding her.
Yes, she didn't want the other person to find her too quickly.
She intervened only to stop the other party from wreaking havoc in the safe zone.
No one would believe that a zombie, after getting what it wanted, would still keep the humans in the base alive.
......
Seeing that she was about to be surrounded, Yu Yao waved her hand and returned the things she had just taken.
She was only less aware of her own intentions, making it impossible for others to discern what her true goal was.
At the same time, a teleportation talisman was quietly burned, and he disappeared right before everyone's eyes.
And in the next moment, they arrived at a dead corner of a building a few hundred meters away.
When she reappeared, she had become a wealthy and willful middle-aged woman.
No one would compare her to that dark-skinned, skinny girl from before.
......
The humanoid zombie escaped, but fortunately, Yu Yao had already marked it.
In the future, whenever it appears, I will be able to spot it immediately.
With her brows lowered, Yu Yao slowly walked towards the Xu family while using the Sky-Gazing Mirror to observe Gu Ran's figure.
She was seen with the door tightly locked, making strange movements and gestures within an array composed of dozens of red candles and blood threads.
He was still muttering to himself.
A few minutes later, a strange flame suddenly rose in front of her.
Gu Ran immediately bit her finger and dripped her blood into it.
Then he threw in the hair he had taken from the puppet.
In an instant, the flames blazed brightly.
A bizarre smile suddenly appeared on Gu Ran's otherwise pretty face!
Yu Yao recalled asking Aunt Liang about her background when she returned.
Haicheng native, a wealthy woman, who spent several years in Siam.
Siam.
It really is black magic!
......
Gu Ran finished the ceremony.
The puppet in Yu Yao's room suddenly convulsed and then collapsed to the ground.
At the same time, Gu Ran herself coughed up a mouthful of blood.
"What happened! The ceremony was clearly successful!" she exclaimed.
After lying on the ground for a while to adjust, the puppet on the other side suddenly stumbled out of the room and kicked open Gu Ran's door.
"You! What did you do to me!"
Hearing the commotion, Aunt Liang rushed upstairs and helped Yu Yao, who was actually a puppet, ask, "Yao Yao, what's wrong with you?"
The puppet pointed at Gu Ran and the strange formation on the ground.
"She, she doesn't know what she did to me, I... I feel so bad right now."
Gu Ran clutched her chest, glaring fiercely at the puppet.
"I also want to ask you what you did to me? I was cultivating peacefully, what right did you have to suddenly kick the door open and come in!"
The puppet pointed at her, its finger trembling.
"You, who cultivates like this! What kind of crooked and evil methods are you practicing! You only failed today because you met me. Tell me, how many people have you harmed using this method!"
Aunt Liang looked at the puppet and Gu Ran with a blank expression.
"You, you two..."
After seeing Xu Zhiwu and Duan Yifeng return home, Yu Yao controlled the puppet and said, "Aunt Liang, I only took a plate of fruit you cut through her hand, and then I suddenly tripped and fell. When she came to help me up, I felt a sharp pain on my scalp, and she actually plucked out a few strands of my hair! Tell me! What did she do with my hair!"
"Huh?" Aunt Liang looked surprised. "I didn't cut you any fruit..."
After saying that, she suddenly looked at Gu Ran.
"Gu Ran, what exactly did you do?!"
Just then, Xu Zhiwu, who had run over quickly, suddenly spoke up: "Ranran likes to do handicrafts. She uses a person's hair to weave into a bracelet, which is believed to have the effect of bringing peace and safety. I think she just wants to make a bracelet for Yaoyao."
The puppet suddenly looked at Xu Zhiwu, its eyes filled with sorrow.
"Brother Zhiwu?"
Xu Zhiwu looked at the pale-faced puppet with blood on its lips, his eyes flickered slightly, but he still insisted on saying, "Yaoyao, don't misunderstand Ranran, she's not a bad person."
After hearing this, the puppet stared coldly at Xu Zhiwu for a long while before finally turning around and returning to its room.
And they locked the door tightly.
Yu Yao watched everything from afar, her expression calm.
Xu Zhiwu's reaction was strange.
He clearly knew everything, yet he was deliberately protecting Gu Ran.
With her eyes lowered, she activated the Heaven-Covering Stone, jumped back into the room through the window, put away the puppet, and silently restored her original appearance.
What exactly is Xu Zhiwu hiding?
What does he know?
......
Because of Gu Ran's situation, Yu Yao began refusing to go out and not communicating with anyone outside the door.
She didn't open the door and go downstairs until dinner time.
Strangely, neither Aunt Liang nor Xu Zhiwu showed any negative emotions towards Gu Ran.
Aunt Liang acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to cook, do housework, and take care of Gu Ran.
Xu Zhiwu continued to dote on her, showing her great care and concern.
Because Gu Ran was currently somewhat weak, he even personally carried her up and down.
As they went upstairs, Yu Yao clearly heard Gu Ran whisper in Xu Zhiwu's ear, "Zhiwu~ Let's have a child, okay? I hope it's a boy, as gentle and handsome as you~"
Xu Zhiwu nodded gently after a moment of silence.
"Okay, whatever you say~"
As Gu Ran's giggles faded into the distance upstairs, Aunt Liang's hand, gripping the chopsticks, trembled violently despite her best efforts to control it.
Yu Yao raised an eyebrow and said to her, "Aunt Liang, I have some things to take care of and need to leave for a while."
Aunt Liang suddenly looked at Yu Yao, her eyes filled with hurt.
"Yaoyao, are you leaving?"
"No, we're just going to solve some problems."
Yu Yao has already discovered that Gu Ran did it on purpose.
As long as she's there, they can keep performing.
......
When Xu Zhiwu finally got Gu Ran to sleep, Yu Yao was already gone.
When Aunt Liang told him that Yu Yao had left, Xu Zhiwu was stunned for a moment, then calmly sat down in the chair.
"It's good that she's gone; it saves her from getting involved in our filthy family affairs."
Aunt Liang lowered her head, tears streaming down her face.
“Zhiwu, let it go. Don’t let yourself be controlled by her because of me. You shouldn’t live this kind of life.”
"Mom, please don't say things like that again."
With tears in her eyes, Aunt Liang pleaded with Xu Zhiwu, "Zhiwu, the day your father died, I didn't want to live anymore. I beg you, please let me go."
"mom!"
Xu Zhiwu had just called out when Yu Yao suddenly appeared on the sofa in the living room, looking curious.
"Can I ask you why you're all so afraid of Gu Ran?"
