Chapter 208: Conclusion (1)
After dawn, I went to the police station and gave a brief account of the entire incident to Captain Wang.
The incident began with Liu Yiyi. Liu Yiyi had a difficult childhood, and after meeting Guo Yang, she became pregnant with Guo Jia. However, Guo Yang had a good friend named Guo Yongjia, who had a congenital physical defect that made him unable to have children. Guo Yongjia's wife, Yan Shan Shan, longed for a child, and Guo Yongjia deeply loved Yan Shan Shan. However, the couple often quarreled over the issue of having children.
Yan Shan Shan frequently compared herself to Guo Jia, and over time, Guo Yongjia grew impatient and killed Guo Jia.
Guo Yongjia was a disciple of Liu Lao Er and feared that if something happened, the investigation would lead back to him. Therefore, he brutally skinned Guo Jia, starting from the skull and removing the entire skin.
Afterward, the heartbroken Liu Yiyi went mad. Although her husband took care of her and helped her recover somewhat, they would eventually have children, and Yan Shan Shan would continue to make comparisons. So Guo Yongjia contacted another good friend, Xiang Qing.
Xiang Qing was also a disciple of Liu Lao Er and was the son of the Director, possessing good genes.
Guo Yongjia asked Xiang Qing to help with surrogacy. While suppressing Yan Shan Shan through dreams, he arranged for Xiang Qing to mate with his wife in hopes of getting Yan Shan Shan pregnant quickly. However, no man wants to see his wife sleep with another man. After prolonged suppression, although Yan Shan Shan became pregnant, Guo Yongjia did not want this child. He found an opportunity to abort Yan Shan Shan and Xiang Qing's child, planning to find another way for his wife to conceive.
Ghost Pregnancy seemed like an unrealistic idea, but Guo Yongjia understood Yin-Yang Technique well. He tried various methods to get Yan Shan Shan pregnant; however, instead of finding a surrogate, he chose Ghost Pregnancy.
Ghost Pregnancy requires a host body, and Liu Yiyi was the best candidate for Guo Yongjia.
Liu Yiyi deeply loved Guo Yang; under normal circumstances, this would not work. So Guo Yongjia took the opportunity to kill Guo Yang and then killed Liu Yiyi.
I boldly speculate that Guo Yongjia still hoped for a child of his own. After killing Liu Yiyi, he ensured that Liu Yiyi, Guo Yang, and Guo Jia would never meet again. Since Guo Jia was still a little girl, she was easy to control; however, it was different for Guo Yang and Liu Yiyi—they would eventually meet again. To prevent this from happening, Guo Yongjia set up the Husband-Watching Formation.
The Husband-Watching Formation allows two deeply loving people never to meet again. During this time, Guo Yongjia could use his soul to create a Paper Figurine identical to Guo Yang's appearance and meet with Liu Yiyi.
When Liu Yiyi died, a rebar was inserted into her lower body. As long as Guo Yongjia used Yin-Yang Technique to remove the rebar's position, he could make Liu Yiyi pregnant. Although congenital defects made it difficult for Guo Yongjia to conceive himself, the soul form is different from that of a living person; as long as he found a little ghost to enter her womb for conception, it would work—and this little ghost would naturally be best represented by Guo Jia.
Guo Yongjia envisioned using his disguise to inject Guo Jia's soul into Liu Yiyi's abdomen so that she could become pregnant again. Once Liu Yiyi was pregnant, he could extract the Ghost Infant and implant it into Yan Shan Shan's body to create the phenomenon of true pregnancy.
A man cannot say no!
Doing this can satisfy Guo Yongjia's vanity as a man and also fulfill Yan Shan Shan's wishes.
However, this series of events is not that simple; the difficulty is significant, and it cannot be achieved in a short time. Although Guo Yongjia has thought of a method, he has not yet succeeded.
At this moment, Xiang Qing discovered Guo Yongjia's intentions. Having been trying to find ways to avenge Master, Xiang Qing did not expose Guo Yongjia immediately, but Guo Yongjia was afraid. The Three Directions Emperor Formation and the Seven Gates Ghost Sealing Formation indicate that Xiang Qing is not an ordinary person, and Guo Yongjia was scared! Because when he sought Xiang Qing for surrogacy in the past, he realized that Xiang Qing had intentions toward his wife, Yan Shan Shan.
To prevent the matter from being exposed, Guo Yongjia chose to kill Xiang Qing. However, he did not anticipate that Xiang Qing was already on guard against him, so he could not seal Xiang Qing's soul; he only managed to seal Xiang Qing's abilities.
The whole situation is quite convoluted. After explaining it all, I do not expect Captain Wang to fully believe me, but I just need to tell him everything I know.
"Do you have evidence that Guo Yongjia killed Liu Yiyi, Guo Jia, Guo Yang, and Xiang Qing?" asked Captain Wang after listening.
I shook my head. "If I had evidence, I wouldn't be here today. Three days later, I will duel with Guo Yongjia at the Cemetery. Since the laws of the mortal world cannot punish him, I will send him to the Underworld."
"A duel? What era are we in? A duel? In a society governed by law, there is no need for heroes!" exclaimed Captain Wang urgently.
I ignored Captain Wang and took Murong Duoduo to the Good Restaurant.
Around nine in the morning, there were not many people at the Good Restaurant. After returning from buying groceries, Yan Ruolan was still in the kitchen washing vegetables. When I and Murong Duoduo arrived at the restaurant, I found that Gu Zixu was also at the Good Restaurant.
"My dear Murmur Duo Duo, what a coincidence to meet you here!" Upon seeing Murong Duoduo, Gu Zixu hurried over.
Murong Duoduo showed a look of disgust.
Speaking of which, Murong Duoduo and Gu Zixu are indeed husband and wife, having been betrothed since childhood. The horse-breeding family of Gu Zixu has a good tradition: after a child is born, they will definitely help find multiple fiancées for the child while also adopting some little girls as child brides. In today's era where women's value has skyrocketed, this tradition is what all men wish to see.
However, Murong Duoduo is very opposed to this way of doing things; she does not accept her parents' approach. Therefore, although she bears the title of fiancée to Gu Zixu, she has not agreed to it.
Yin-Yang Master and Kumu Family have maintained a good relationship for generations, so falling out is not an option; however, escaping marriage has become Murong Duoduo's only way out.
Here, it should be mentioned that the former Shaosi Ming and Murong Duoduo has now become the Great Deity of Life. After Pan Shenbao's soul returned to the River of Forgetfulness, those Yin Ghosts who once sought help from Murong Duoduo gave her Yin Qi, allowing her to successfully condense a drop of Yin-Yang Tears.
Yin-Yang Tears are rare and precious, a treasure of the Yin-Yang Dao, said to have the power to turn decay into wonder.
However, even after cultivating the Yin-Yang Tears, Murong Duoduo did not return to Yin-Yang Master, but instead stayed in my Paper Shop, having no intention of leaving.
When Gu Zixu found her here, Murong Duoduo hid like a mouse avoiding a cat, trying to evade him. She claimed to her family that she was accumulating virtue and cultivating the Yin-Yang Tears, while in reality, she had already mastered them—at least Gu Zixu was unaware.
"Give you three seconds to leave my sight." Seeing Gu Zixu approach, Murong Duoduo said coldly.
Gu Zixu showed no sign of being threatened and casually walked up to her, saying, "Whip me, dear Murmur Duo Duo!"
Unable to tolerate it any longer, Murong Duoduo actually slapped Gu Zixu. If it were any other man, he would have exploded in anger; however, I suspect that Gu Zixu has a tendency for self-harm and might even develop into a heavy SM enthusiast. After being hit, instead of getting angry, he knelt down and tightly hugged Murong Duoduo's legs, saying, "Come on, Hami, harder, harder!"
Murong Duoduo quickly increased her strength and began punching and kicking Gu Zixu, who ended up with bruises but still shouted, "Ah! So good, so good!"
I went into the kitchen and saw Yan Ruolan washing vegetables. She was already used to seeing Murong Duoduo hit Gu Zixu, so she didn't think much of it. After I entered, she looked at me and said, "Oh, Pervert Cao, why are you here so early? Aren't you going to find your Ernie?"
Ever since I went on a blind date with Ernie, this girl has been bringing her up to tease me.
I placed one hand on my hip and looked up at the ceiling at a forty-five-degree angle, slowly saying, "Today I'm treating you; how about we go shopping?"
"Oh?" Yan Ruolan looked at me as if I were a monster and said, "Has the iron Rooster lost its feathers? That's unscientific!"
"Many things cannot be explained scientifically," I replied in a weary tone.
"Alright then! Wait for me five minutes. In five minutes, I'll strip you of your feathers." After saying this, Yan Ruolan hurriedly ran upstairs from the kitchen stairway.
It turns out that when a girl says five minutes, it doesn't match Beijing time at all.
I waited in the kitchen for nearly thirty minutes before Yan Ruolan slowly made her way downstairs.
She was wearing a sky-blue winter dress, paired with black leggings and a pair of ankle boots, which caught my eye.
"Are you stunned?" After coming down, Yan Ruolan walked up to me and pinched me, saying, "Put away those wicked thoughts; your nature is hard to change."
"Uh!" I quickly composed myself. "I've always wanted to ask you a question."
"Go ahead!" Yan Ruolan said generously.
"Are you afraid of thunder?" I asked with a smile because every time it thundered and rained, there would always be a woman who ran to my Paper Shop. I used to think it was Yan Shan Shan because she was naturally more delicate, while Yan Ruolan was a bit tomboyish. But ever since the last incident, I suspected that the girl who ran to the Paper Shop wasn't Yan Shan Shan but Yan Ruolan.
The two sisters looked exactly alike, and since they were both in pajamas and didn't talk much, it was hard to tell them apart.
"Thunder?" Yan Ruolan paused for a moment, then slapped my chest and said, "Are you trying to scare me? With such bright sunshine today, how could it possibly thunder?"
Alright!
I gave up.
Next, I took Yan Ruolan and Murong Duoduo to the street. Gu Zixu wanted to follow us but was easily persuaded by Murong Duoduo's words.
It's worth mentioning that Murong Duoduo is quite poor. Ever since she came here, I've been covering her living expenses. As for clothes? I've seen quite a few undergarments in my Paper Shop, but for outerwear, she seems to only have one white round-neck shirt and one pair of jeans—her eternal outfit. I wonder if she feels cold.
The Urban Area's Shopping District was bustling with activity. Clothing stores were blasting announcements through subwoofers: "Clearance sale! All clothing at 30% off!" Even shoe stores were using speakers to play: "Huang Shiren, you're not human; you're cutting workers' hard-earned money..."
In such an extraordinarily lively environment, I actually didn't like it much. I preferred the quiet of my Paper Shop. But today, I decided to go all out and took all my savings to let the two girls shop wildly on the street.
Yan Ruolan was trying on clothes like she had gone mad. After trying on each piece, she would eagerly change and ask me, "Pervert Cao, does it look good?" Most of the time, I would nod, and then she would say, "Look at you, you're about to drool. Waiter, pick me up; he's paying the bill."
Unlike Murong Duoduo, Yan Ruolan had no intention of saving money. Perhaps Murong Duoduo was used to living frugally; even when I paid, she would only buy those items that were "all just ten yuan, you can't get fooled for ten yuan."
From morning until afternoon, surprisingly, Yan Ruolan only bought three outfits. These three sets were blindingly beautiful after she tried them on. I must say, when Yan Ruolan wears girls' clothes and doesn't speak, she is indeed a stunning beauty.
As for Murong Duoduo, she bought five sets. Although the prices were low, she ended up buying more than Yan Ruolan.
My intention was to spend all my savings of two to three hundred thousand yuan, so I didn't restrict them. After they got tired from shopping, I went to a fruit shop, bought a tricycle, and loaded it with a full load of fruit. Once Murong Duoduo and Yan Ruolan got in the car, I took them back to the street where my Paper Shop is located.
"Pervert Cao, I noticed something's off with you today!" Yan Ruolan asked while sitting in the car and eating fruit.
I didn't answer her but directed her and Murong Duoduo to distribute the fruit to the neighbors on both sides.
When the neighbors received the fruit, they smiled and joked, "Oh, Cao Qilong, what are you doing?"
Some even directly said, "Are you getting married? Handing out wedding candies? Or red eggs?"
Here, there is a saying that newlyweds should distribute wedding candies to those around them as a sign of goodwill, while couples who have a baby should give red eggs to their neighbors as a way to share their joy.
Whenever they asked me this, I would smile and say, "If I Cao Qilong ever get to the point of handing out wedding candies and red eggs, I'll definitely give you all a package!"
After distributing the fruit, we had a meal at Good Restaurant. Once we returned to Paper Shop, I laid out a mat at the entrance of the shop and placed all the paper I bought beside the bed. For the next two days, I planned to focus on crafting paper and not go out anymore.
