Chapter 242 The Last Word
After dinner that evening, Yu Yao returned to the Seven-Colored Glazed Realm and immediately took out the mask that Feng Jiye had brought back from the mountain pass, carefully studying the array on it.
Don't be fooled by He'an's seemingly inhuman actions.
But many things are indeed extraordinary.
Like these masks, although they are simplified versions of formations, they are stacked quite precisely, complementing each other's strengths and weaknesses without interfering with one another.
Although staying in the foul air for too long will still cause problems, it will definitely last longer than the two that Yu Yao drew.
They can also use their special abilities independently.
Yu Yao always felt that the two formations drawn on Feng Jiye's back were limited in their effectiveness.
Her calculations between formations are not precise enough.
Chi Heng was originally outside taking care of the medicinal herbs and koi in the Seven-Colored Glazed Realm with Shen Bao.
When I suddenly received the message from Yu Yao that she was going into seclusion again.
It felt like the sky had fallen again...
......
Seven days later, at the Kyoto base.
Xu Zhiwu, who had been missing for a long time, has finally returned.
Liang Shuhua was very excited and kept asking him how he was doing outside, whether he was injured, and occasionally complained that he had been gone for too long!
Xu Zhiwu listened patiently to her rambling, apologizing and saying nice things from time to time, promising that she would not do it again.
Seeing his expression, Liang Shuhua finally let him go and started telling him about the interesting things that had happened recently.
She was chatting and doing housework, tidying up the living room, so she didn't notice the dark and terrifying look in her son's eyes when he looked at her.
......
That night, Xu Zhiwu quietly entered Liang Shuhua's room while she was still asleep.
After drugging Liang Shuhua, he reached out without hesitation and snatched the soul-nourishing wood hanging around her neck.
They then put an identical fake wooden tag on her head again.
Before leaving home, he left a note as a pretense.
This means that Liang Shuhua was still sleeping, so he didn't disturb her and went to accept his mission, leaving her not to worry.
Perhaps in Xu Zhiwu's view, Liang Shuhua would definitely sleep until noon.
He is still hypocritically maintaining his image as a good son.
But what Xu Zhiwu didn't know was that less than ten minutes after he left home, Liang Shuhua slowly opened her eyes.
Two lines of clear tears slid down her cheeks and into her long hair, which was streaked with a few silver strands.
......
In fact, Liang Shuhua's soul-splitting illness had been cured by Yu Yao as soon as she returned from the vicinity of the mountain pass.
She jokingly agreed with Liang Shuhua not to tell Xu Zhiwu for the time being, and to give him a surprise in the future.
As for the Soul-Nourishing Wood, Yu Yao had already taken it back and given her an identical one.
A wooden plaque bearing some spiritual imprints and other functions.
However, neither Liang Shuhua nor Xu Zhiwu knew this.
Liang Shuhua slowly got up and went to the living room to read the letter left by Xu Zhiwu over and over again.
As if he had finally made up his mind, he went to the Cen family early the next morning.
......
When Cen Yuemian arrived at Thousand Soul Mountain, Yu Yao was still researching superimposed formations in the Seven-Colored Glazed Realm.
Upon noticing Cen Yuemian's arrival, Yu Yao was stunned for a moment, followed by a strange feeling.
She hurried out, while Cen Yuemian had already been greeted by Luo Mei and taken to Lingxi Peak.
Upon seeing Yu Yao, Cen Yuemian greeted her and then took out a small wooden box.
"Aunt Liang from the base asked me to give this to you."
Yu Yao's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she quickly stepped forward to catch the wooden box and open it.
Inside, a small jade paulownia flower pendant lay quietly.
"what is this?"
Cen Yuemian said, "When Aunt Liang came to my house to ask me to help deliver some things, she chatted with me a lot. She mentioned that although her son's name was Zhiwu, he was severely allergic to paulownia pollen. Even a little bit of contact would cause his throat to swell, making it difficult to breathe, and his whole body to turn purple. The worst time, he almost didn't make it to the hospital. So when Xu Zhiwu was ten years old, her husband cut a piece of raw stone and had it carved into the shape of a paulownia flower as a birthday present for Xu Zhiwu, which was a way of making up for one of Xu Zhiwu's regrets."
Yu Yao's brows twitched.
Are you allergic to sycamore pollen?
Why does it feel a little strange that Aunt Liang suddenly said this?
Furthermore, why did Cen Yuemian specifically give this pendant to her?
She wanted to remind herself... what?
"I'm going to check on Aunt Liang!"
Yu Yao felt something was wrong no matter how she thought about it, and rushed to Liang Shuhua's home at the Kyoto base almost immediately.
Her home, however, was locked and lifeless.
Yu Yao didn't dare use the Sky-Gazing Mirror to see what was inside.
The moment Chi Heng opened the door using his golden spiritual power, everyone, including Yu Yao, was stunned for a second.
In the living room, Liang Shuhua lay quietly on the sofa, her face pale and her chest calm and still.
She is dead.
suicide.
Her suicide note was placed on the coffee table next to her.
Yao Yao:
Aunt Liang knew you would come. I'm sorry, Aunt Liang doesn't dare to say goodbye to you in person.
Because I have waited too long for this day.
I was really afraid that if I arrived late, Lao Xu wouldn't wait for me.
Yesterday, when Xu Zhiwu tried to drug me and take the Soul-Nourishing Wood, I knew that my wish was about to come true, and I really should leave.
I also want to apologize to you; I lost the Soul-Nourishing Wood.
I clearly... I realized long ago that my son was no longer my son, but I kept deceiving myself, indulging in wishful thinking, hoping that one day he would come back.
It was my fault, it was Aunt Liang's fault.
Don't save me, don't help me, please, Yao Yao.
This was Liang Shuhua's last words.
