Lin Zhi twitched the corners of his lips and said, "You live in Dali Temple for a long time. When did you hear that pilgrims are required to stay overnight in the temple if you want a son?"
Mo Zhen was silent.
"A few months after your son was born, your wife claimed that she wanted to go to the Guanyin Temple to fulfill her vow. Not long after she returned, your son fell seriously ill and sought medical treatment everywhere to no avail. Until the benefactor you spoke of appeared and a dose of medicine cured the illness."
"Have you never doubted what kind of magic medicine can cure people's illnesses?"
Mo Zhen opened his mouth, but couldn't say even a single word.
Doubt is like a seed. Once planted in the soil, no matter how harsh the environment is, it will eventually take root and sprout and grow into a towering tree.
"It's not the disease that can be cured by medicine, it's the poison!"
The man's voice was melodious like years of mellow wine, but when it fell on Mo Zhen's ears, he felt it was cold and ruthless.
His shoulders suddenly collapsed, as if a mountain of five elements was pressing down on him.
"On that day, only your wife will enter the temple alone, and no servants will be allowed to follow her. Who do you think can poison your son?"
"Stop talking." Mo Zhen raised his hands and hugged his head tightly: "Please, stop talking."
The man's fingers dug into his hair and scratched vigorously, like a trapped animal.
Lin Zhi's last words were the straw that broke the camel's back, causing Mo Zhen to completely collapse.
"Now, you can die." Lin Zhi glanced at him: "I don't bother to move your wife and children. As for their future, it is not part of my plan."
"No!" Mo Zhen suddenly raised his head, clenched his teeth, and a cold glare of hatred flashed in his eyes.
"After I die, please ask Sect Master Lin to send them to Da Sima's Mansion!"
Lin Zhi smiled: "Okay!"
Mo Zhen took a deep breath, jumped into the chest-deep pool of blood, and cut himself with his sword.
The blood pool was originally calm and calm, but the moment his body entered, it suddenly swayed.
But it was only for a moment, and before anyone could see clearly, he regained his composure again.
However, Mo Zhen's body suddenly submerged under the water, and the sound of sharp teeth gnawing clearly echoed above the silent blood pool.
The sound was terrifying.
In the silence, something slippery suddenly brushed against Lin Chu's feet, causing a layer of dark waves to ripple on the water.
Lin Chu looked at it and exclaimed: "What is that?"
"Hand." Lin Zhi did not reply, but stretched out his hand towards her: "Hurry!"
Lin Chu uttered a cry, then stretched out her hand, and he grabbed it. Suddenly she felt pain on her fingertips, and he made a cut with a dagger. Bright red blood beads like beans oozed out from her tender white fingertips.
"Okay." Lin Chu curled her lips, and the depths of her phoenix eyes were as dark as the sea, rolling out frightening waves.
"Don't move." Shi Ruhai leaned on the soft couch beside the blood pool and took a nap. He slightly raised his eyelids and said with a hint of laziness in his voice: "Otherwise, you will regret it."
"how?"
Lin Chu looked at his expression and felt something ominous, so he wanted to ask. Suddenly he felt the water around him sway, and suddenly there was a roaring wave.
A big fish leaped out of the pool of blood and covered the sky and the earth, sending up red mist like blood all over the sky.
At a glance, I felt shocked in my heart.
The fish was about ten feet long. Its whole body was as black as ink, and it had a huge, flat mouth. There were four pairs of long whiskers on the side of the mouth, and its teeth were as sharp as blades.
Freshwater fish...can grow such sharp teeth? She forgot that freshwater fish cannot grow in blood water.
Lin Chu stared, his views overturned by what he saw.
As a human being in her two lifetimes, she preferred to associate with poisonous insects, and she had never seen a fish as strange as the one in front of her.
The big fish bounced up, rushed towards her without missing a beat, opened its mouth and caught her bleeding fingers.
Lin Chu remembered Shi Ruhai's instructions and did not resist, letting the big fish bite her finger.
