Chapter 446: Mo Bin

“I’m guilty!”

Chu Yun blamed himself.

“Enough.”

Chu Sihan waved his hand. “You can go back first.”

“Yes.”

Chu Yun agreed and retreated.

“Ha—”

Lu Sheng yawned, a thin mist of tears forming at the corner of her eyes.

“Lord, can you send me back to my original courtyard first?”

She sniffed and asked vaguely.

“Someone is already staying there.”

“Huh?”

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Who’s staying there?”

“Nanny Yao’s family.”

Chu Sihan pulled her back and spoke softly.

“Alright.”

Lu Sheng yawned again and let Chu Sihan pull her forward.

After entering the house, Chu Sihan lit the oil lamp on the table.

Even though Chu Sihan had not returned for a long time, the room was still clean and spotless.

Lu Sheng walked past the screen in a familiar fashion. Then, she sat on a taffy chair and closed her eyes.

“Lord, remember to give me a blanket later.”

Ever since she went to Yong Fu Town, she had not slept well.

Chu Sihan frowned slightly and was about to say something when he heard an even breathing sound.

“Sleep.”

He squatted in front of the chair and smiled helplessly. He stroked the messy strands of hair on her forehead and spoke softly.

After she fell asleep, Chu Sihan carried her back to his couch.

After covering her with a blanket, he strode away.

Lu Sheng could faintly hear the sound of the door opening and closing. However, as it was very soft, it did not affect her from continuing her sleep.

—————

After leaving the office, Chu Sihan returned to the mortuary.

At that moment, the uncle guarding the door was already sleepy. However, when he heard the voice, he hurriedly woke up.

“Lord, why are you back?”

When the uncle saw that it was Chu Sihan, he heaved a sigh of relief.

“I wanted to come and take a look again. Please continue with your work.”

The uncle stared at Chu Sihan’s back and praised him secretly. “Lord is so responsible. No wonder everyone loves and respects him so much.”

Chu Sihan naturally did not hear these words and did not pay much attention to them.

After entering the mortuary, he did not check on the corpses. Instead, he found a corner to hide.

Sure enough, after a while, he heard a slight movement outside the mortuary.

He raised his eyebrows slightly but did not appear immediately.

After a while, two men in black walked in suspiciously, carrying a sack.

Thud!

The sack was thrown to the ground.

“Be gentle. Don’t attract the old man at the door.”

One of the men in black rubbed his shoulders and spoke softly.

“What a pity!”

Another man in black squatted down and untied the sack.

Under the moonlight, Chu Sihan could clearly see that the sack contained a young girl who looked like the corpses in front.

“Such a beautiful girl. How good would it be if we had her? It’s such a pity that she’s dead.”

The man in black’s hand wandered reluctantly on the girl’s face.

When the other saw this, he could not help but complain softly, “She’s already dead. Don’t you find it odd to touch her now?”

“It’s such a pity to use such a beautiful girl only once!”

The man in black stood up, but his gaze was still fixed on the girl in the sack.

“Hurry up and do your work.”

The other person urged him a few times before the two of them worked together to arrange the girl’s corpse in a row with the other six corpses.

Just as the two of them were about to leave with the sack, one of them suddenly saw the black blood on the ground.

He stopped in his tracks and retreated to the corpse where Lu Sheng had cut her calf.

“Wow, seriously?”

Seeing him suddenly pick up the female corpse’s skirt, the other person suddenly said in surprise, “If you really can’t help it, isn’t the corpse that was just sent here hotter than this one?”

“Shut up.”

The person frowned and waved at him. “Come and take a look.”

“What’s wrong?”

The other person walked over suspiciously. When he saw the injury on the girl’s calf, his breathing stopped.

The two of them looked at each other and saw the fear in each other’s eyes.

“Let’s go back and tell Master what happened.”

Once the two of them left, Chu Sihan immediately followed them.

After a while, he followed the two of them into an inn.

“Everything’s settled?”

The two men in black had just knocked when a cold voice came from the room.

After a while, the door opened.

The person who opened the door was wearing a black robe. His head was covered by a hood, and his face could not be seen clearly.

After the two men in black entered, they bowed and said, “It has been settled. It’s just that I discovered another matter.”

“Huh?”

The person asked in a low voice.

“Someone seemed to have noticed that something was amiss. When I sent the corpse to the mortuary today, I discovered that one of the female corpses had a cut on her calf. Moreover, the child Gu inside had disappeared.”

After hearing his subordinate’s report, that person immediately fell silent.

After some time, he said coldly, “Those are the dead child Gus. It’s alright even if they find out.”

“Yes!”

After agreeing, the duo turned around and retreated.

“Wait.”

“Master, please give us your orders!”

The duo bowed again and spoke respectfully.

“If anyone dies in the future, burn them outside the suburbs.”

“Yes!”

After the two men in black left, Chu Sihan looked at the man again.

He took off his hood, revealing a pale but good-looking face.

It was an unfamiliar face, one Chu Sihan had not seen before.

The person patted the bed. With a cracking sound, the bed board suddenly moved away, revealing a dark hole.

The man picked up the oil lamp on the table and walked into the hole.

When Chu Sihan saw this, he followed him calmly.

After the two of them entered, the bed board above their heads automatically covered them again.

Chu Sihan looked up and continued following the man.

This was a very long secret passage. As to where it led, Chu Sihan could not guess immediately.

He only knew that he had followed the man for about an hour before he finally saw the moonlight.

The path led to a courtyard. It was a courtyard that Chu Sihan was familiar with.

That was because this was the backyard of Lin Jiang Mansion’s Chu Mansion.

He narrowed his eyes and continued following him.

After returning to the ground, the man headed in another direction.

After a while, he opened the door and entered a room with a light on.

Chu Sihan frowned slightly. He poked through the window paper and looked inside. When he saw the person in the room, he immediately sneered silently.

Who else could it be but Chu Silin and Qi Nan, the sect master of An Luo Sect?

It seemed like the person playing with Gu was An Luo Sect’s King of Gu, Mo Bin.

“Why are you here?”

When Qi Nan saw Mo Bin, he frowned and asked.

“Sect Master, I came here to tell you something.”

“Sit first.”

Chu Silin let Mo Bin sit first and smiled at Qi Nan. “Brother Qi, sit too.”

“Speak. What’s the matter?”

After Qi Nan sat down, he asked Mo Bin again.

“Previously, Young Master Chu said that to disgust Chu Sihan, he wanted me to send the bodies of those girls to the officials. I thought that they would not discover anything. But now, the officials seemed to have discovered that there are dead Gus in those girls’ bodies.”

He looked at Qi Nan and said, “I’m afraid that they will find out about our An Luo Sect.”

“How is that possible?”

Chu Silin smiled disdainfully. “There are so many people playing with Gu in the world. It’s not like only the people from An Luo Sect knows”

He leaned back in his chair and crossed his legs. He looked at Mo Bin and said, “Moreover, Chu Sihan is still in Huang Yang Town. If we hurry back, it will take a few days. Can’t we just burn the mortuary tonight?”

Qi Nan scratched his ear. “I’ll listen to Young Master Chu and find someone to burn that unlucky place.”

“It’s too late to burn now.”

Mo Bin looked at the two of them and suggested, “Instead of burning the mortuary, we should move the other Gu people elsewhere.”

Burning up the mortuary would only attract the attention of the officials. After all, they were only people from the pugilistic world and could not compare to the power of the Imperial Court.

“If you ask me, forget about these.”

Chu Silin said casually, “If anything happens to those Gu people in the future, just burn them. They are all bought orphans anyway. No one will recognize them. Even if the officials suspect anything, they can’t do anything to us.”

“Young Master Chu is right!”

Qi Nan looked at Mo Bin and said, “Then, we’ll do as Young Master Chu said. If anything happens to those Gu people in the future, just burn them. There will be plenty of chances to disgust Chu Sihan in the future. There’s no hurry.”

Bang!

At this moment, the door was suddenly kicked open.

The three people in the room and Chu Sihan, who was standing outside the window, were shocked.

Chu Sihan turned his head and saw Lu Sheng, who was supposed to be sleeping in his room, standing outside the door.

He was slightly stunned and could not react in time.

“Trying to disgust Chu Sihan?”

Lu Sheng walked in slowly with a yellow talisman in her hand.

“It’s you!”

Chu Silin frowned. “Why are you here?”

When he reached the capital, Chu Sihan, Lu Sheng, and the rest were still in Huang Yang Town.

That was why he dared to ask Mo Bin to throw the corpses to the officials.

Although he said that he wanted to disgust Chu Sihan, after a few exchanges, he knew in his heart that he was indeed no match for Chu Sihan.

The capable people he invited could not compare to the capable people around Chu Sihan.

It seemed like he had never won against Chu Sihan before.

Be it in terms of looks, talent, status in the family, or external power, there was nothing he could compare to Chu Sihan.

This difference made him uncontrollably oppose Chu Sihan. He just could not stand Chu Sihan’s high and mighty appearance.

Mo Bin looked at the girl in front of him and his eyes burned.

“Master, if this girl is used as a Gu person, it will definitely succeed!”

There were only a dozen Gu people who could survive.

He had nurtured Gu for many years, so he naturally knew what kind of body could nurture those Gus the most.

When this girl in front of him entered, he could smell the pure scent of blood.

This was the first time he smelled such fragrant blood.

How intoxicating!

Lu Sheng’s red lips curved into a cold smile. “If you want to use me to raise Gu, you have to see if you have the ability.”

Chu Sihan crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against the window. He looked at the slender figure and smiled dotingly.

The girl had a good temper usually. Most of the time, she was smiling and looked heartless.

But at the critical moment, she was just like a little chili.

Yes, she was. Yun Guagua loved eating chili the most and would stock up a bunch in his Water Palace every time.

When he tried it for the first time, he indeed could not accept it. However, the more he ate, the more addictive it became.

“Chu Sihan didn’t come with you?”

Chu Silin heaved a sigh of relief when he did not see Chu Sihan.

He smiled evilly and said to Mo Bin, “Mo Bin, as long as you take her down, she’s yours.”

When Mo Bin heard that, his blood boiled.

No, it should be that the Gu in his body had smelled the fragrance of blood and was screaming excitedly in his body.

“If I can nurture such a superb person into a Gu person, it will definitely be of great help to the Crown Prince!”

Mo Bin touched the corner of his lips with his thumb and spoke excitedly.

Chu Sihan’s face darkened.

He initially thought that Chu Silin was just finding fault with him. He did not expect him to be in cahoots with the Crown Prince.

He was simply courting death!

“So it’s the Crown Prince’s men.”

Lu Sheng sighed softly. She was not frightened. Instead, she walked closer to them and said regretfully, “Then you have to be careful. Soon, someone should take over the position of the Crown Prince.”

She stretched her leg and placed it on a chair. Then, she smiled at the three of them.

“Hah~”

Qi Nan sneered. “What do you know? It won’t be long before the Crown Prince ascends the throne.”

“Chuckle—”

Lu Sheng covered her mouth and giggled secretly. She looked at Qi Nan mockingly. “Don’t worry, I’ll spare your lives so that you can watch the Crown Prince ascend the throne.”

She emphasized the words ‘ascend the throne,’ causing the three of them to frown.

“Mo Bin, what are you waiting for?”

Qi Nan shouted angrily.

When Mo Bin heard that, he attacked Lu Sheng unexpectedly.

Lu Sheng kicked the chair under her feet over. Mo Bin used his hands as a shield and the chair fell to the ground.

“Since you’re here, don’t even think of leaving.”

Mo Bin smiled evilly at Lu Sheng.

“Since I’m here, of course I won’t leave.”

As she spoke, she glanced at the window with a smile.

Chu Sihan’s expression paused before he smiled dotingly.

So, the girl knew that he was here?

Could it be that she followed him here? He actually did not notice her.

“Then stay and be my Gu person!”

Mo Bin attacked again. He tried his best to get close to Lu Sheng, but she always dodged him easily.

Initially, it was still alright. However, after a while, he was still lacking. This exhausted Mo Bin’s patience.

He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to deal with Lu Sheng again.

However, even though he had used his full strength, he was still a bit off.

Lu Sheng clicked her tongue and sneered. “Right here?”

“You…”

Mo Bin was so tired that he was panting.

As long as he had the chance to get close to Lu Sheng, he would definitely insert his child Gu into Lu Sheng.

However, Lu Sheng did not give him a chance to get close. Moreover, she was obviously playing with him.

He gritted his teeth and threw a few Gu worms at Lu Sheng while she was distracted.

Lu Sheng was stunned. The Explosive Talisman in her hand changed to a Boundary Talisman immediately and she threw it in his direction.

“Ah!”

The Gu worms were sent flying by the boundary. Two flew to Chu Silin’s feet, scaring him so much that he jumped onto a chair.
