The windows and doors around her were clearly closed, but at this moment, Gu Yunzhen felt the cold wind outside blow at her face like a knife.

She felt a faint chill rise under her feet.

The faces of Madam Murong, Murong Yong, Old Madam Murong, Murong Hui, Liu Muyu, and the others flashed past her eyes. Suspicion rose in her heart as she speculated on the various possibilities behind this.

For a moment, she could not help but think of the plays and scripts she had seen in the past. Keywords like “first love”, “cinnabar mole”, “family encounters change”, “deep love”, “involuntary love” and “subst.i.tute” filled her thoughts.

“A subst.i.tute,” Gu Yunzhen muttered. She seemed to be talking to herself, but also seemed to be asking Gu Yanfei, “Am I a subst.i.tute?”

After saying it, she felt that her guess was a little ridiculous. She had only heard of people looking for subst.i.tutes who looked similar, but she had never seen anyone looking for a subst.i.tute with the same birth characters.

“Indeed. However,” Gu Yanfei smirked cynically, “Miss Liu should be your subst.i.tute.”

There was a hint of mystery at the end of her sentence.

Coupled with the clues from her previous life, Gu Yanfei was 90% sure that Liu Muyu was Gu Yunzhen’s subst.i.tute.

“…” Gu Yunzhen was confused and could not guess what Gu Yanfei meant.

Gu Yanfei then looked at the second piece of silk paper in the pigeon letter. It was about Shangqing Spiritual Master.

Taoist Shangqing Spiritual Master had joined the Wuliang Temple since he was young and had been the disciple of Celestial Rectifier Spiritual Master for more than 30 years.

It was said that he was like the legendary Celestial Rectifier Spiritual Master. He was born with a Taoist bone and extraordinary intelligence. He was especially good at talismans, alchemy, and feng shui. After entering the temple, his Tao techniques quickly improved, and in the past seven to eight years, he had revealed many divine powers.

For example, he had once seen through the mishandling of General Feng’s ancestral grave at a glance.

He had once done something to revive the Second Lady of Changning Manor, who had been demented for five years.

He had used just a talisman to pull the Seventh Young Master of w.a.n.gan’s Manor back from the gates of h.e.l.l…

There were countless such miracles. As a result, Taoist Shangqing Spiritual Master’s reputation rose, and he became known as a “living immortal”.

After Gu Yanfei finished reading, she handed the two pieces of silk paper to Gu Yunzhen.

Gu Yunzhen also read it seriously. When she saw that the second piece of paper was about Shangqing Spiritual Master, she raised her eyebrows in surprise.

Gu Yanfei rubbed the hollow spot under her lips thoughtfully with her index finger. The Old Madam of the Murong family lying on the bed appeared in her mind again. The death energy around her was as thick as a coc.o.o.n, binding her tightly.

“I once heard a story…”

As soon as Gu Yanfei raised her head, Gu Yunzhen looked up at her in confusion.

This was actually something that Gu Yanfei had personally witnessed in a mortal town when she was in the Bright Spirit Realm.

In a small town, a scholar happened to save a girl from a squire’s family. Because of her life-saving grace, the girl married the scholar.

However, the girl was weak and died of illness less than two years after their marriage.

The scholar accidentally found an evil book. In order to revive his wife, he used sorcery to lock her soul in her skull. Then he buried the skull in the ground and watered it with blood every day. From rats to chickens to cows… The amount of blood required increased day by day until it needed human blood to water it.

For this reason, the scholar did not hesitate to kill one person after another.

Flesh and blood grew bit by bit on his wife’s bones. Her skin was like seeds taking root and germinating in the ground, but her body no longer had any warmth. Her limbs were stiff and she still could not see the light.

His wife did not want to be resurrected, let alone become this half-human half-ghost.

However, the scholar still forced it, unable to let his wife die.

This was because the scholar’s family had fallen. If not for his wife’s wealth, he would have lost everything long ago. He relied on his in-laws to make a comeback.

Once his wife died, without the help of his in-laws, the scholar would return to being poor.

Gu Yanfei suddenly stopped here, her eyes deep.

Gu Yunzhen’s heart rose and fell with the story. At first, she was touched by the scholar’s “deep love”. Later, she was conflicted that the scholar had killed several people to save one person. When she heard this, she hated the scholar’s selfishness and ruthlessness.

“What happened after that?” Gu Yunzhen asked. She felt that the wife in this story was too pitiful.

Later…

Gu Yanfei blinked, as if she had returned to those memories from a hundred years ago.
