The family of the second wife Youyue and the third wife Yanzhu stayed in the Sifangtang family in Tokyo.
When two tigers fight, one of them will be injured.
Over the years, Sifangtang Mingzheng has been secretly encouraging Youyue's widow and children to fight against Yanzhu's family.
……
"...It is now certain that it was my second sister-in-law who had your father buried alive because she believed your father was responsible for her son's death."
Yan Zhu said quietly, "Her son actually died in an accident, but she doesn't want to believe it and is looking for trouble like a madman."
"Your father was too weak. He was frightened by her and didn't even consult me. He went to your grandfather and asked him to mediate between the two families. Unexpectedly, he died within a few hours of the conversation."
"By the time I found out about this, it was already too late. Now, even if we find your father's body, we can't bring justice to that woman."
As she spoke, Yan Zhu's slender hands suddenly gently cupped Shuyue's face. She spoke word by word, "Shuyue, do you know? Born in a family like this, being stupid is also a sin..."
……
Because there are many people from the second branch of the family, investigating the main family in Sifangtang will definitely be full of obstacles.
For safety, Yan Zhu had to go to her maternal grandparents' home and her eldest brother's family in Nagoya for help.
Most of the people following Yan Zhu now were sent by the Ju family.
Even so, Yan Zhu still felt unsafe.
Yan Zhu said softly: "It was me...who summoned you..."
Upon hearing this, Shuyue's eyes widened, and she saw crystal tears flowing down Yanzhu's aggressively beautiful face. She choked and said, "I actually... don't believe it will succeed. I'm just trying to summon the gods according to what the Ju family has passed down... So, son, I ask you, help me through this difficult situation, and you are also helping yourself..."
Chapter 007 Ant Message
Shuyue looked quietly at the woman crying.
Less than an hour ago, this woman was so strong in front of others, as domineering as the queen of the night.
But now, the woman hugged him and cried.
Shu Yue was speechless. He whispered in his mind, "System, is what Yan Zhu of Sifang Hall said true? Was I summoned here by her?"
The system's voice immediately lingered in Shuyue's mind: "No, it's just a coincidence."
Shuyue: “…”
So, was Yan Zhu of Sifangtang an accidental success?
Shuyue hesitated for a moment, looking at the woman in front of him who was suppressing her tears. He asked again, "Does the summoning method she mentioned from the Tachibana family really exist?"
System: "Loading data... Completed... The Tachibana family is descended from the Japanese royal family of this world. Many nobles have emerged from this family throughout history, making it a prominent and prestigious family."
"The Tachibana clan was one of the four great clans, along with the Minamoto clan, the Taira clan, and the Fujiwara clan. However, they were defeated in the struggle for power with the Fujiwara clan and fell into decline, almost becoming extinct..."
"And in this country's culture, the role of the royal family is more than just the ruling class; they are the equivalent of priests who can hear the voice of the 'gods'."
"So, the method that Yan Zhu of Shifangtang is talking about is the 'Ceremony of Descending Spirits' that has been passed down from ancient times by the Tachibana family to this day."
"Because the ritual process is so old, many details are incomplete, and most of the content comes from legends."
After hearing this explanation, Shuyue was speechless.
Even if he explained now that he did not come down because of the Ju family's trance ritual, Yan Zhu probably would not believe it.
What concerned Shuyue was whether Yan Zhu had taken the initiative to use her own son as a sacrifice, or whether she herself had not expected that her son would become the "carrier of the gods."
If it's the former, then this woman is too terrifying...
Shu Yue had an idea in mind. He raised his slender little hand and patted Yan Zhu's shoulder.
Yan Zhu immediately raised her eyes. Although there were still traces of tears on her face, she regained the demeanor of an empress.
"What do you need? Shuyue..."
Yan Zhu looked at her son in front of her.
Shuyue thought that it was really hard to describe how she encountered such a misfortune while on vacation.
Since Yan Zhu has taken the initiative to acknowledge her as her relative, it would be a waste to use her.
Shu Yue raised his hand and pointed at the in-car desk behind Yan Zhu. He was referring to the blank A4 papers.
Yan Zhu narrowed her eyes and tried to take a piece of paper and handed it to Shuyue.
Shuyue took the white paper and placed it across the space between the mother and son.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of small red dots crawled out from Shuyue's sleeves, along his fingers, and quickly gathered on the white paper.
Seeing this horrifying scene, Yan Zhu's claustrophobia was instantly awakened, and goose bumps appeared all over her body.
Upon closer inspection, I discovered that what crawled out of the child's hand was actually a bunch of blood-red ants.
Then, these ants gathered into rows of Japanese language.
"In that case, let's depend on each other from now on."
Seeing this strange scene in front of her, Yan Zhu stared at Shu Yue with wide eyes.
Shuyue conveyed incredible information with a calm expression.
Yan Zhu looked at this wonderful message and was silent for a long time. She nodded and said, "Okay."
As soon as she finished speaking, the ants on the A4 paper moved again.
The original sentence disappeared, replaced by: "Our family is in danger, should we go back now?"
Seeing this, Yan Zhu frowned, "There's no other way. At least we have to do a good job on the surface. But don't worry, I've found someone from the Ju family."
Shuyue shook his head.
The ant on the A4 paper changed again. The original message disappeared, replaced by a new message: "Before you return home, take some of my troops with you and place them there."
Seeing this, Yan Zhu was speechless for a long time before she said, "How many people are there?"
The message on the A4 paper has changed.
"Not a human."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zhu took a breath.
Didn't wait for her to respond.
Shuyue controlled the ants again and arranged new words on the paper.
"I was cut throat in the demolition area of Qingwei District. My body was extremely weak. During the period of recovery, it was the queen ant in that area who saved me."
Seeing this, Yan Zhu's eyebrows began to twitch.
If someone else had said this, Yan Zhu would not have believed it easily, but the ants in front of her that formed words made her believe that what Shu Yue said was true.
Shuyue continued to instruct the ants to convey her wishes, "I need an open courtyard, a very large one, to relocate the queen ant. I promised her that I would find a good place for her to live before the house is demolished."
Yan Zhu, who had been silent the entire time, finally couldn't help but whisper, "I've already sent someone to investigate. You were taken to an abandoned street in Qingwei District."
"That was actually the area that the Sifangtang family had acquired. There had been no planning or construction, and the project had been shelved for a long time, so it was abandoned."
"But, because something happened to you, that area has been blocked off by the police, and there's not much specific information. Can you tell me what happened over there?"
"If they were just investigating you, there would be no need to block you for so long, right?"
Shuyue looked at Yanzhu.
Then, the message on the A4 paper changed again:
"The Queen Ant killed my murderer."
"The murderer was used as food and died a horrific death."
"I conveyed the location and site of the body to the police through comics."
"They followed the clues I provided and found the body."
"To prevent panic among the public and to protect innocent passersby from harm, the police naturally had to cordon off that area."
Yan Zhu looked at the text. It was such a concise message, but she felt her blood boiling.
Murdered...
Yes, her son died. The man in front of her was her son, but also not her son.
The culprit is still alive, and the murderer who carried out the killing has been dealt with.
Yan Zhu took a deep, trembling breath. "I understand. But now that the police have blocked that area, how are we supposed to move the Ant Kingdom out?"
New information appeared on the A4 paper:
"First, stop the demolition of that land. I'll find a way to send a message to the Queen Ant and ask her to wait for a while."
"During this period, we need to find a new place to live, preferably somewhere with mountains and water, away from the hustle and bustle of the city."
"I'll buy the entire mountain and let the queen live there peacefully without being disturbed. This is my way of repaying her for saving my life."
"You believe you can do it, right?"
……
Yan Zhu stared at the motionless ants on the paper for nearly a minute before she said, "I can definitely do it. Tell me if you have any other requirements."
Do not know why.
When Yan Zhu first saw these ants forming the shape of words, she was frightened.
As time went by and she saw more and more of them, Yan Zhu inexplicably felt a strange sense of security in her heart. It was because of these "well-behaved" ants and the quiet child in front of her...
Chapter 008: Isn't it really like inviting a wolf into the house?
After Shuyue had a deep conversation with Yanzhu through text.
Yan Zhu ordered the driver to temporarily change the direction of travel.
The convoy headed towards the demolition area in Qingwei District.
Shuyue said that the queen ant is huge and inconvenient to move, so it is necessary to be cautious when demolishing the ant nest.
Under Shuyue's instructions, the car stopped near the green belt outside the demolition area.
There are not many people here.
After getting off the car, Shuyue squatted at the edge of the green belt in his hospital gown. His little hands reached into the grass and he closed his eyes.
Shuyue summoned the system in her mind: "System, does my spiritual power rely on the original owner or my own soul?"
The system immediately responded, "All of the host's power comes from the soul. The original owner's body is merely a carrier. However, this body is too fragile, so you should be careful with physical strength."
Shuyue: "So, we need to pay attention to the physical aspects, but we can be more casual with the mental aspects, right? I understand."
……
When Shuyue was using his mental power to communicate with the red fire ant queen over a long distance.
Yan Zhu stood one meter behind him with her arms folded.
The group of people behind him obeyed Yan Zhu's orders. Although the orders given now were strange, no one questioned them.
Now, even if a passing police captain sees it, he will just think that it is a naughty child who doesn't want to go home, so he is squatting in the grass, and the adults are just indulging the child's harmless behavior and accompanying the child.
One of the other bodyguards guarding Yan Zhu came up to her and whispered, "Miss Yan Zhu, the plastic storage boxes, sugar water, ground beef, canned fish, and flower seeds you ordered are all ready. Please take a look."
"Hold it first." Yan Zhu said calmly, "Wait."
"Yes."
The man responded and respectfully stepped back to arrange the order that Yan Zhu had just given.
Yan Zhu stared closely at Shuyue's tall and straight back.
Just an ordinary action was already very different from her original son.
Her children all had hunched backs, but the one in front of her... the difference was huge.
She didn't understand this kind of thing.
She shouldn't blame the child in front of her, because without him, she couldn't even see the child for the last time.
