Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

Panda Novel

The next day.

Lu Sheng watered the garden, locked her room and the courtyard's door, placed Lu Jiang and Lu Xin under the care of a neighbor, then went to town.

The bowls and pans in her kitchen were a bit worn-out; their bottom had almost become visible. She had to purchase some new ones.

The moment she stepped into town, a strong air of yin hit her face.

Lu Sheng frowned. "Why would such a strong air of yin flow in the afternoon?"

A sufficient amount of yang energy could restrain the yin energy, unless there were too many grievous souls.

"Lady, what did you say?"

The old woman who followed her in an ox cart heard her muttering, so she had asked the question.

Lu Sheng shook her head. "Nothing."

At the entrance of the South City, there was the Deng mansion. When Lu Sheng passed by the mansion, she stopped in her tracks.

She realized that the strong yin energy was coming out from the tightly-shut mansion.

There was a seal on the mansion.

"Aiyo, Lady, don't go near there. It's inauspicious," the old lady cautioned.

"Why?"

The old woman lowered her voice and explained, "The Deng mansion was destroyed half a month ago, and hundreds of people had been killed. It heavily rained that day, and it's said that the blood flowed throughout the entire mansion. It was scary!"

"Has the murderer been caught?" Lu Sheng asked.

"I heard that he has been arrested. It was a servant of the Deng family. It was said that his affair with a girl from the family was exposed, and he was kicked out. Out of jealousy, he poisoned the well and killed them all."

After speaking, the woman's body shook, and she hurried away with her basket with a panicked expression.

Since the murderer has been caught, why is the house still releasing Yin energy?

"Weird."

Lu Sheng scanned the Deng Mansion and prepared to leave.

Suddenly, the wind blew and a shapeless black shadow drifted before her.

As Lu Sheng looked up, her indifferent gaze turned into a cold one.

"Taoist nun, my family is trapped in this mansion, and we can't get out. Can you exercise some kindness and let us out?"

The dark shadow gradually turned into a beautiful girl. She held her veil and wiped the bloody tears on her face.

"Why did you follow me?"

Lu Sheng asked in a low voice.

"I, Deng Rumeng, saw the aura you possessed. I thought you must be a righteous cultivator. That's why I came to find you."

"I'm not a righteous cultivator."

Lu Sheng smiled and asked again, "Since you're all trapped, why can you come out?"

"I didn't die in the mansion."

Deng Rumeng shook her head and said in a choked voice, "At that time, my mother agreed that I should elope with Brother Ah Ming. But to protect the honor of the Deng mansion, she deliberately kicked Brother Ah Ming out of the house before sending me out through the back door."

"It's just that… Not long after I left the house, I was trapped in a sack and beaten to death with a stick by someone."

As Deng Rumeng spoke, the blood tears flowed even more fiercely.

"Later, I realized that it was that beast Zhao Wei who did it. It wasn't Brother Ah Ming."

Then, the black aura surrounding Deng Rumeng intensified.

"Calm down! Calm down!"

When she saw Deng Rumeng cool down, Lu Sheng frowned and asked, "In other words, the person who killed your family was not the man who was kicked out, but Zhao Wei?"

"Yes!"

Deng Rumeng agitatedly said. "So, Taoist, please save Brother Ah Ming. He's innocent!"

"What's your relationship with Zhao Wei?" Lu Sheng asked.

"He's my cousin."

Then, Deng Rumeng explained to Lu Sheng the whole series of events.
