No taboos

Chapter 367 A Beautiful Dream

After the Zhu family intervened and Gao Wanli failed to become the Chief Lawyer of Champa, she used the "bloodline" to make this arrangement.

At that time, it was just to give Xu Yuan a warning.

As these arrangements are implemented one by one, if Xu Yuan fails to solve the case, but she, the deputy chief of justice, does... then it will be obvious who is more capable within the Champa Police Department.

Ma Tianshou strongly supports Xu Yuan, mainly because Xu Yuan himself has outstanding abilities.

If I can solve the cases he can't solve, then wouldn't I be even more capable?
Her "farming method" was not something she developed herself, but rather something arranged by her elders and plundered from a death row inmate.

This method requires the death row inmate's complete cooperation.

The condemned man was originally scheduled to have his entire family executed.

The Gao family intervened, using money and connections to replace his youngest son with a substitute, thus ensuring he had an heir.

But after Gao Wanli obtained the farming method, the Gao family stopped caring about the child.

They had originally promised to protect the child until he was sixteen—but the nobles of the Gao family had forgotten their ways, and no one bothered with this matter anymore.

Therefore, very few people knew that Gao Wanli had also studied farming methods.

In the pond of Dongzha Village, the water snakes swelled to the thickness of a water vat before wriggling and swimming to the shore.

The granulation tissue growing from the ulcer has turned into pink, fleshy claws.

The water snakes grew thicker but also shorter.

They were only about half a meter long, and couldn't even swim up to the pond. Instead, they used their fleshy buds to grip the ground and wriggle up.

Once ashore, they rolled along the ground like logs.

Upon arriving in the village, these things suddenly joined together end to end, and the fleshy buds merged together, transforming into a strong fascia that wrapped around them!
These water snakes then became a giant monster, as thick as a water vat and tens of meters long!
It twisted its body under the night sky, and from the very front of its head, it split open a huge mouth that was fourteen feet long.

It is filled with countless sharp spikes, opening up like a starfish, capable of swallowing a house whole in one gulp.

It has already set its sights on a target.

It has a special field of vision, similar to the right eye field of vision of Xu Yuan's "Yin-Yang Guillotine".

I can see clearly that a family of five is sleeping in that house: parents and three children.

The four gaping mouth was about to fall from above the house when it was suddenly struck by a bolt of lightning.

The monster trembled all over, and then brought its blade down.

It looked like a single strike, but it used the fighting techniques from the "Dragon's Appearance Technique." In the blink of an eye, twenty-four strikes had actually been delivered!

The monster crashed to the ground, its massive body severed at the fascia.

Then a peculiar flame erupted from the darkness, landed on the monster's body, and burst into flames.

Moreover, the fire burned ever brighter, and the monster twisted and struggled, but to no avail.

Before long, it was burned to piles of ashes.

This flame was "Dragon Fire," a technique Xu Yuan had never used before.

The entire Dongzha Village was awakened by the loud noise of the battle.

Especially the family of five inside the house.

But in the darkness of night, no one dared to open the door to check.

The three children cried loudly in fear, and their parents held them tightly in their arms, but their own bodies were trembling uncontrollably.

After resolving the strange occurrences in Dongzha Village, Xu Yuan immediately headed to the next location.

The next village is called "Yellow Mud Head," but it is a beetle that has undergone a strange transformation.

Faced with this thing, Xu Yuan did not use the methods of the "Dragon Transformation Technique," but instead killed it with a single blow using a sword pellet.

The third strange thing about this place is a turtle.

Xu Yuan then used the "Dragon Transformation Technique" to kill him.

Gao Wanli planted blood seeds in eight villages and towns around Champa.

Besides Xiapo Village, there are seven remaining.

For these bizarre creatures to completely and frantically massacre the village, Gao Wanli needs to personally urge them to do so.

Three of these villages are eerily associated with "dragons".

In these villages, Xu Yuan used the "Dragon Transformation Technique" and left some faint traces, leading the clues to Ghost Witch Mountain.

Xu Yuan, despite going at top speed, still faced immense danger in the last two villages. A moment's delay would have resulted in countless deaths and injuries.

Fortunately, Lord Xu is now a fifth-rate official. As long as Lord Xu finds these evil spirits cultivated by Gao Wanli, he can turn them to ashes with a single burst of fire.

There are no tricks, only strength.

Two hours later, Xu Yuan, with the two little foxes, quietly returned to the outskirts of Champa.

It was almost dawn, but Xu Yuan didn't call for the city gates to be opened. Instead, he found a place outside the city to hide.

I went inside as soon as the city gates opened.

Then, without making a sound, he returned to his courtyard through the back gate of the Champa government office.

……

Gao Wanli slept soundly last night, having many sweet dreams.

In the dream, I punished that Xu man at will, without caring about any worldly opinions or moral constraints.

After waking up, I sat up and casually tore off yesterday's page from the almanac beside my bed.

Today's prohibitions include: casting spells, reciting scriptures, praying for offspring, and drinking alcohol.

As long as she doesn't wear heavy makeup, Gao Wanli is in a good mood.

Moreover, today's taboos do not interfere with craftsmanship or farming methods.

Gao Wanli felt that today was a good day.

After getting up, she dressed in front of the mirror.

Then he realized that he had forgotten to hire a few maids.

Originally a personal maid at home... because of her ambiguous relationship with one of her male lovers.

He "accidentally" fell into the lotus pond at dusk and drowned.

This time, Gao Wanli simply didn't bring any people from home, planning to hire a few people at will once they arrived in Champa.

The maids in the house are all so beautiful...

Having Gao Wanli around is an eyesore.

These past two days, I've been so angry with Xu Yuan that I've completely forgotten about this matter.

Now I have to fetch water and wash myself myself, and then carefully dress myself up.

Such a wonderful day of "settling scores and vengeance" must be greeted in the most perfect manner.

Gao Wanli is truly skilled at makeup.

This was the only thing she could be proud of besides her craftsmanship and farming methods.

After I finished cleaning up, my stomach betrayed me and rumbled loudly.

Gao Wanli stormed out of the yard—her yard wasn't far from Xu Yuan's.

While Xu Yuan's stepmother was busy making things, his third aunt would still bring a sumptuous breakfast as usual. The aroma wafted over, and Gao Wanli's stomach rumbled a few more times.

She has a big appetite too.

People like this are generally not good at handling hunger.

Gao Wanli left the yamen on her own, while her subordinates, Mr. Lu and Mr. Jiang, waited outside the gate with two groups of men.

Lang Xiaoba and Ji Shuangqiu, one on the left and one on the right, stood guard with their swords drawn.

Like the two guardian generals, Heng and Ha.

Keep an eye on these people and don't let them in.

Gao Wanli was in a good mood today and didn't intend to bother with these two small fry.

"Once we bring down Xu Yuan, I'll take sole control of the Champa government and find an opportunity to assign them both a dangerous mission."

Send them into the belly of evil spirits, so they can become a pair of doomed lovers!
Hahaha! "

Gao Wanli thought to herself.

Afterwards, she and her men had breakfast nearby and then leisurely returned to the yamen.

"It's almost time. The news of the horrific cannibalistic incidents caused by evil spirits in various villages should have reached the government offices by now!"
