Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 570

Chapter 570 Karma in the Previous Life
Yun Xiao was slightly stunned. There were other people in this temple?

Before Yun Xiao could think it through, the little monk respectfully replied, “Yes, Master.”

After seeing the little monk leave, Yun Xiao’s expression became even more slightly surprised.

However, thinking that Rong Jin was still lying in the room and his expression was withered, Yun Xiao’s eyebrows became a little worried. She was no longer interested in who the distinguished guests in the monk’s guest room were.

Because of the etiquette, Yun Xiao still asked softly, “Master’s distinguished guest, do you need me to say hello?”

The monk only smiled faintly. His kind face made it hard to see what he was thinking. He only said calmly, “This guest is actually someone that the female benefactor knows.”

Yun Xiao was slightly stunned, and then her eyes unconsciously widened. In this deep mountain, Yun Xiao had no acquaintance at all, and if they knew each other, they could only be people outside the mountain.

If the people outside the mountain wanted to find this place, it was simply incomparable to ascending to the heavens. In other words, they could only be people who fell down with them.

After falling to the ground with Yun Xiao, there was another person who hadn’t died besides her and Rong Jin.

She looked in the direction of the monk in shock, her expression slightly embarrassed. Then she said, “Can I go and see him?”

At this moment, Yun Xiao really wanted to confirm if the person who survived was Zhou Jingyan.

After the monk finished speaking, his deep gaze landed on Yun Xiao, as if he was looking at Yun Xiao or not. After a long time, a sigh flowed out from the monk’s lips. “Benefactor, please do as you please.”

Yun Xiao frowned. She always felt that the monk’s gaze was as if he wanted to see through her entire body. He completely ignored this strange feeling. Yun Xiao stood up and respectfully bowed towards the monk. Then, he followed the little monk who had just entered the cabin.

The monk looked at Yun Xiao’s resolute back and his deep eyes seemed to see through everything. After a long time, he sighed again, “Evil fate!”

Although Yun Xiao walked to the cabin, because she couldn’t see for a period of time before, Yun Xiao’s ears were extremely good. Although the monk said this in a low voice, Yun Xiao could still hear it clearly.

Turning his head, he saw the monk put all the chess pieces on the stone table into the chess box, and then headed in the opposite direction.

Under the setting sun, the monk’s figure was pulled on the ground.

Looking at that figure, Yun Xiao always felt that that figure could disappear at any time.

Only when the figure disappeared bit by bit in front of a small wooden house did Yun Xiao turn around and walk towards the small house in front of her.

Just as he entered the room, he saw the little monk adding water and medicinal herbs. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he looked up and saw Yun Xiao’s figure. With a surprised expression, he said, “Benefactor, are you out of the room?”

Yun Xiao smiled embarrassedly and nodded. Then, she walked into the room. A few steps later, she saw a person lying on the bed. He was haggard and thin. His cheeks were also concave. His eyes were tightly closed and his pale lips were tightly pursed. Because of the lack of water, they were somewhat dry and cracked.

When Yun Xiao saw this figure, her eyes widened. She looked at the person on the bed in disbelief. Although she had expected it to be him, when she saw it, she was still shocked.

In her previous life, she had been with Zhou Jingyan day and night, so she was naturally very familiar with him. Even though Zhou Jingyan had become like this, Yun Xiao could still recognize him at a glance.

The moment she saw Zhou Jingyan’s figure, the hatred in Yun Xiao’s heart immediately rose.

If Zhou Jingyan hadn’t burned the dense forest, they wouldn’t be like this now, and Rong Jin wouldn’t have been unconscious.

Taking a deep breath, the hatred in Yun Xiao’s heart was still unbearable. She stretched out her hand and landed on Zhou Jingyan’s chin. As long as she exerted more strength, Zhou Jingyan would die under her own hands.

Her previous life with Zhou Jingyan would also dissipate.

Yun Xiao closed her eyes and exerted her strength bit by bit.

At this moment, Yun Xiao suddenly remembered what the monk had said before, “Everything in the world is like a flower in the mirror. Being addicted to hatred will only make her live in hatred forever.”

At this moment, Yun Xiao’s mind was filled with the monk’s sigh when she turned around, as if he had already predicted that he would do so.

“Benefactor, do you know this person as well when you look at him like this?” Seeing that the room was very quiet, the little monk sprinkled all the medicinal herbs into the bathtub. Seeing that Yun Xiao was standing motionless in front of the bed, he asked curiously.

Yun Xiao’s hand trembled slightly and her heart trembled slightly. She opened her eyes and saw that Zhou Jingyan’s face had an abnormal blush. She immediately released her grip on Zhou Jingyan’s hand.

If she strangled him like this, wouldn’t she also become someone like Zhou Jingyan?

What was she doing just now?

Yun Xiao shook her head quickly and hid her hand under her wide sleeve. She said loudly, “I don’t know her. After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked out.”

The little monk did not expect that Yun Xiao would leave just as she entered. He thought that he could find someone to talk to with great difficulty.

Yun Xiao quickly walked out of the room and stood under the eaves. Her expression was slightly embarrassed. Who knew that when she raised her head, she would see the monk standing not far away, looking at her with a smile, especially those eyes filled with admiration.

Admiration for what?

Do you admire her for not choking Zhou Jingyan to death just now?

However, Yun Xiao could not get any answers now. She bowed towards the monk and turned around to enter Rong Jin’s room.

Looking at Rong Jin lying on the bed, his originally round cheeks no longer had much flesh, and there was even less flesh on his body.

Yun Xiao took out Rong Jin’s hand under the quilt and held it in her palm. She could clearly feel that Rong Jin’s big hand was more fleshy than before, and now it was more like skin wrapping around bones.

“Husband, it has been so many days. You must wake up,” said Gujing Wubo with an embarrassed expression.

Yun Xiao raised her eyes to look at Rong Jin’s expression and pressed Rong Jin’s hand tightly onto her face. She narrated the details of her time with Rong Jin and her joy and sadness.

After saying this for a while, Little Desert brought over dinner. Yun Xiao ate a few mouthfuls and couldn’t eat anymore. Without seeing Rong Jin wake up, Yun Xiao didn’t have any appetite at all.

After feeding Rong Jin some liquid food, Yun Xiao waved her hand and asked the little monk to take everything away.

The little monk advised for a while, but Yun Xiao still shook her head. Seeing this, the little monk frowned and walked out with the food.

Yun Xiao then gave Rong Jin a medicinal bath. After Yun Xiao let Little Monk go down, she carefully rubbed Rong Jin’s shoulder. Through the faint halo, Yun Xiao could clearly see Rong Jin’s long fan-like eyelashes, leaving behind a string of shadows under his eyelids. However, those deep eyes still had no intention of opening them.

Yun Xiao rubbed Rong Jin’s shoulder and said, “You know what? I met Zhou Jingyan today. I was obviously so ruthless with him, but the moment my hand was placed on his neck, I actually couldn’t kill him myself. Am I useless?”

She smiled bitterly and continued, “You must be very curious why I have such a big prejudice against Zhou Jingyan, right?” Even in the capital, you must find it ridiculous to make enemies with him everywhere. “After all, a daughter of a merchant confronting a prince is no different from an egg touching a rock. If it weren’t for you secretly helping me, I wouldn’t have known how many times I would have died at Zhou Jingyan’s hands, right?”

“Actually, there’s something I’ve been hiding in my heart. I’ve wanted to tell you more than once, but I don’t dare to say it in front of you. I’m afraid to see your strange gaze, see you holding a sword towards me, and I’m afraid to see you treat me like some kind of demon or ghost.”

“The dream I told you about before wasn’t just a dream. It was something that I had experienced. However, it was something that happened in my previous life. I don’t know exactly why. I was already dead, but when I opened my eyes, I actually returned to thirteen years old …” Yun Xiao explained in detail what happened in her previous life. When talking about her previous life, Yun Xiao was still calm at first, but when talking about the last thing, the only thing left in her eyes was sadness, self-blame, and hatred.

She spoke so seriously that she didn’t notice that Rong Jin’s long eyes trembled slightly.

Still, he continued, “Do you know why I named our children Nuo and Tongtong?” Because these two names are the names of my children in my previous life, I owe them too much, so I want to use this life to make up for them. I clearly knew that Tongtong cried when she was born, but they all said that Tongtong was dead, and Nuo. Do you know how much pain I felt when I saw Zhou Jingyan kick my child to death with my own eyes? I thought the bowl of poison Chun Lan gave me, It’s gonna kill me, Beneath the Underworld, I can walk faster and catch up to Nuo. I can hug him in my arms and tell him my apologies. Even if Father Emperor doesn’t like him, he still has his mother. But such a simple wish can’t come true … It can’t come true … That’s my child. How can he be so ruthless? To actually be able to use such a heavy hand on his own flesh and blood? Why did he want to destroy my life even though he clearly gave me such a beautiful hope? Even beheaded the entire Yun Clan? “I even have nightmares. I often dream of holding my father’s corpse and crawling forward bit by bit in the snow. I ask for help from everyone, but they don’t even give me a single glance at me. Nobody cares about me … That feeling of helplessness, that feeling of being abandoned by the whole world, really hurts …”
