Under One Person: I Opened the Age of Mythology

Chapter 157: Lu Family Blood and the Wordless Monument (3K)

PS: The following is an original plot, which was not revealed in the original novel. If there are any similarities, "Painting Demons of Mountains and Seas" was also written by me.

After this.

The head of the Lu family did not kill Lu Ci, but instead destroyed his meridians and threw him into a dungeon.

At the same time, because Duanmu Ying gave birth prematurely, the Lu family immediately arranged for someone to deliver the baby and carried her into an empty room in the village.

After half a day's effort, Duanmu Ying gave birth successfully to a daughter. Thanks to timely treatment, both mother and daughter are safe.

In this way, the Lu family had another bargaining chip in their hands, which made them full of confidence and felt that this would definitely make Duanmu Ying obedient!
Since she had just given birth and was too weak, in order to prevent Duanmu Ying from being killed, the Lu family did not lock her up in the dungeon. Instead, they prepared a special room for her and sent people to guard her day and night to prevent her from escaping.

Of course, they also knew that as long as they had their daughter in their hands, she would not be able to escape, so they did not lock her up anymore, but allowed her to move freely in the room and recover faster.

but……

What the Lu family didn't expect was that the first thing Duanmu Ying did after waking up, in addition to asking to see her daughter, was to ask about Lu Ci's situation.

As a doctor with a kind heart and great ambition who hopes to cure all diseases in the world, she naturally does not want to see Lu Ci sacrifice because of her, so she becomes anxiously concerned.

After seeing her daughter and confirming that she was fine, and learning that Lu Ci was not dead but just had his meridians damaged, she heaved a sigh of relief:

"There is still hope."

Although she had just mastered the Shuangquan Hand not long ago, and due to the appearance of her daughter, the development of the power of the Shuangquan Hand was still superficial, but there was no problem just repairing the meridians.

But she also knew that it would not work for her to offer to help Lu Ci recover at this moment, so she could only look for an opportunity later. Anyway, the Lu family would definitely not really kill Lu Ci, so she was no longer anxious.

Some time later...

Duanmu Ying just rested peacefully, visiting her daughter and asking about Lu Ci's situation at a fixed time every day. This was her daily routine.

It was not until a month later, when her body finally recovered, that she finally proposed the idea of ​​compromise to the head of the Lu family. She knew that if she did not do so, the Lu family would never let her and her daughter go. In order to obtain the Eight Wonders...

They are really crazy!
……

……

That afternoon.

The main house of the Lu family.

"You mean, in order to obtain the 'Double Hands', in addition to having a special physique, the only way is to combine with a special physique, produce offspring, obtain its bloodline, and transform it into a hidden innate ability?"

After hearing Duanmu Ying's words, the head of the Lu family and a group of elders frowned.

"That's right. Because the physique that can practice 'Double Complete Hands' is quite rare, we can only start from the genetics aspect, which happens to be the topic I studied when I was studying abroad." Duanmu Ying nodded calmly.

"Um……"

"So, you mean, you're willing to sacrifice yourself?"

After pondering for a moment, everyone in the Lu family understood what was going on and their eyes suddenly became strange.

Although they don’t understand what genes and heredity are, they understand that these things can only be obtained by having children!
"I don't seem to have a choice, and it's obvious that if I don't let you get the 'Shuangquan Hands', my daughter and I will no longer be free, right?" Duanmu Ying nodded.

"However, I have a condition. The person I marry must be chosen by me, and as long as it is successful, the person I marry must be designated as the future head of the Lu family, and I must also be free. Is there a problem?"

"Hmm? I can understand giving you your freedom, but what does the matter of the head of my Lu family have to do with you...ah!"

At this time, an elder of the clan was about to ask a question, but suddenly reacted. He suddenly understood who Duanmu Ying wanted to choose. He was stunned and looked at the head of the family.

"Do you want to choose Lu Ci?"

The head of the Lu family heard this and his eyes narrowed. He could see what she was thinking and immediately refused:

"This is impossible. He is no longer a member of my Lu family!"

"But he does have the blood of the Lu family flowing in his body. This is an unchangeable fact. Besides, I also have my own pride. Only I can decide who to give my body to. If you disagree, then please do as you please." Duanmu Ying looked calm.

"Oh? Aren't you afraid..."

"What are you afraid of? My daughter? How do you know that I haven't planted some tricks on her these days to prevent her from being bullied by you in the future?"

She suddenly laughed.

"Your understanding of 'Shuangquan Hands' is still too shallow."

"I'm telling you, I have only this one condition. If you don't agree, I will commit suicide now, and my daughter will be buried with me. If she is destined to become your Lu family's forbidden delicacy in the future, it's better for her to die now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "puff" sound, and a big hole was torn in Duanmu Ying's neck. Blood spurted out suddenly, shocking everyone in the Lu family.

"..."

"I understand. I'll do as you say."

Seeing this, the head of the Lu family was silent for a moment and finally chose to compromise.

"But I also have a condition. Didn't you say that the 'Shuangquan Hand' can erase a person's memory to a certain extent? After you and Lu Ci are together, I need you to heal his brain and make him forget all his past madness and resentment!"

"Haha, I think he's very normal, at least more normal than you guys!"

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Ying couldn't help but sneer while healing his neck.

"Of course, I know what you want. Isn't it a patriarch who can think about the Lu family wholeheartedly? I can promise this, don't worry!"

At the same time, she couldn't help but smile in her heart. The ability of "Shuangquan Hands" is not just to simply delete memories, it can also do more complicated things, but she didn't tell them...

However, she couldn't fully master these abilities at the moment, and what she could do was very limited, but it was definitely enough to meet their requirements, but she didn't really plan to do so. As she said, she felt that Lu Ci was normal, and a normal person's brain didn't need to be treated, but these guys in front of her needed treatment.

This is also the reason why she chose Lu Ci. He is the only guy in the entire Lu family whom she looks up to. He is also the fundamental medicine to cure the "Lu family's disease". Only by choosing him can her daughter really have a chance of survival!
That’s right, Duanmu Ying never thought that if she really helped the Lu family obtain the “Shuangquan Hand”, they would let her go. The fact is just the opposite…

Once they succeed, they will only exploit themselves and even their daughter even more, squeezing the value of mother and daughter to the extreme until death comes.

In this case, she naturally had to respond, and Lu Ci's performance this time gave her a glimmer of opportunity...

Therefore, after careful consideration, she resolutely put forward the request. This was the only way she could take at the moment, no other choice!

……

……

In this way, the Lu family and Duanmu Ying reached an agreement, and immediately released Lu Ci from the dungeon and let Duanmu Ying heal him.

After that, their marriage was put on the agenda. In this era when monogamy was not restricted, no one would say anything.

But when Lu Ci woke up and learned that her marriage to Duanmu Ying was imminent, she immediately expressed her opposition and began to resist violently.

But this resistance did not last long. One afternoon, after Duanmu Ying went to his house and had a detailed talk with him, he agreed.

As for what they said...

it's actually really easy.

Duanmu Ying hopes that Lu Ci can save herself and her daughter...

Faced with her begging, Lu Ci had no choice but to agree. He understood that under the current circumstances, he could only truly help her and her daughter by following the conditions she had agreed upon and becoming the next head of the family!

Of course……

He did this not only for them, but also for the entire Lu family and for himself, because Duanmu Ying's words really touched him:
"The Lu family is sick!"

This made him wonder:

"If Big Brother were still alive, what would he choose?"

The answer is naturally self-evident.

Once upon a time, he had the protection of his eldest brother. He only needed to practice peacefully and sharpen his blade to become the most handy blade in his eldest brother's hand and protect the Lu family for a hundred years...

But after my brother left...

He had to try to change from being "a knife" to being a "knife holder".

It’s just that he was not good at it in the past, and he couldn’t learn his elder brother’s skills. But now it’s different. With the appearance of Duanmu Ying... a path of knife-wielding that belongs to him is gradually becoming clear!

then……

A month later.

Lu Ci and Duanmu Ying officially got married, but their wedding night was not sweet. They got together for their own purposes.

After this, Lu Ci regained his identity and status in the family, and his power was further increased. He was officially regarded as the head of the family and gradually took charge of various affairs.

one year later.

Duanmu Ying successfully gave birth to two sons, one named Lu Zhong and the other named Lu Xiao.

The next year, she gave birth to another son and a daughter, one named Lu Ping and the other named Lu Yi.

Wait until seven years later.

When Lu Zhong was eight years old, he first awakened an ability similar to the "Shuangquan Hands and Blue Hands" that could extract the memories of others. The Lu family was finally sure that the "Shuangquan Hands" had been successfully integrated into the Lu family bloodline of Lu Ci's lineage!

Although she only had "blue hands" at the beginning, Duanmuying's comprehensive examination revealed that as the bloodline is passed from generation to generation, the genetic factors belonging to "double hands" will gradually appear. If there is another gifted person, Future generations have the possibility of awakening the "Red Hand"!
So far…

Duanmu Ying had already fulfilled the conditions that he promised to the Lu family, and at this time, Lu Ci had also replaced his father and began to take full power.

During these years, he has never been idle. Not only has he demonstrated abilities comparable to those of his elder brother, he has also repeatedly made crazy decisions for the family, and has been completely dubbed a "mad dog" by the outside world.

At this time, Duanmu Ying told Lu Ci that it was time for her to "go", so she left a suicide note and a blank tombstone that she had prepared long ago, and then she committed suicide in her room...

Over the years, she has always been thinking about Wang Zizhong, her little master, but no matter what the reason, she has already let him down and can't face him again.

Therefore, she chose to end her life. This was what she had promised the Lu family...

The decision was made!

When Lu Ci arrived.

Duanmu Ying is dead.

He held her cold body and cried bitterly. Even though they were working together, they had been together for several years and were actually husband and wife. How could he not have any feelings for her?
After that, he finally made up his mind. Within just one month, he mobilized all the forces he had secretly accumulated with lightning speed, drove his father and all the elders of the family off the stage, and completely took control of the Lu family!

Then...

He erected a monument for Duanmu Ying in the village, which was the inscriptionless monument that she left behind.

From the bottom of his heart, he really wanted to write his name on it, but he had no choice. As the head of the family, he couldn't let the outside world know that Duanmu Ying had stayed here...

As for Duanmu Ying's daughter, according to the letter she left behind, he found a good family for her to adopt.

Before committing suicide, Duanmu Ying had deleted all of her daughter's memories about Lujia Village, "Shuangquanshou" and her own life experience. She only hoped that she could live her life in peace...that was enough!
