“You know I would do it even if you didn’t say so.” Lu Jing frowned.
“I know, but I also know that what the Great Hero Lu does has nothing to do with me. You’re just taking pity on those two children. But once I mention it, the Great Hero Lu won’t be able to refuse, and when you go to repair the tomb, I’ll have a part in it,” Wang Wan said slyly.
“Is it interesting?” Lu Jing was speechless.
“It might not be interesting in the eyes of the Great Hero Lu, but I think it’s quite interesting. No matter what, we are mother and son after all, and we should do something for them,” Wang Wan said quietly.
“Speaking of children, don’t you have two biological children?” Lu Jing narrowed his eyes. “I thought your last request would be related to them. Where did you raise them? Do you want me to send them to some of your relatives?”
“You don’t need to worry about that, Great Hero Lu. They already have a place to go,” Wang Wan smiled.
Lu Jing’s expression darkened as if he had thought of something. “You sent them to your accomplices? Speaking of which, I don’t think I’ve asked you how you went from being a young woman who didn’t understand anything to the current fiend. Who told you how to refine those strange objects?”
“I don’t know his name, I only know that his surname is Ji, and he calls himself Mr. Ji. You better pray that you don’t meet him, because he always has a way to release the evil ghost in your heart. I only followed Mr. Ji for three months and learned a little bit. If he were here tonight, the one lying on the ground would probably be you, Great Hero Lu.”
Lu Jing sneered, “I thought you were just bad, but I didn’t expect you to be stupid too. You sent your children to him, aren’t you worried that that Mr. Ji will refine your children into some strange object?”
“Mr. Ji wouldn’t do that.” A light suddenly burst out in Wang Wan’s eyes.
Lu Jing had only seen this kind of light before in the most fanatical believers and those die-hard fans who spared no expense to spend all their savings, even using credit cards to cash out, just to increase a little endorsement sales for their idols.
That was to make others shine brighter, while willingly burning out their own light.
Wang Wan said almost in a dreamlike voice, “Mr. Ji is the most sincere and selfless person in this world. No one who has been with him is not convinced by him. Even if he leads me onto this dangerous path, I have never resented him. In fact, I have never regretted it until now.
“Before I met him, I had never really lived, just a walking corpse. He led me into this door and gave me life. In a sense, what he is doing is the same as what the academy and the Department of Celestial Observation are doing.
“It’s just that the academy and the Department of Celestial Observation are very strict in selecting people, only the elite among the elite. You people are either born into famous families or have extraordinary qualifications, but Mr. Ji is willing to spread his love to all living beings, especially small people like me who are in pain and despair. His appearance changed our destiny.”
“And sent you all to your doom,” Lu Jing said indifferently.
“Mr. Ji also warned me before he left that my desire for power would eventually backfire on me, but he also knew that this was the path I was going to take, so he took my two children away in advance. Although I was reluctant, I also knew that they would be better off with Mr. Ji than with me.
“Besides, I don’t want them to see me in my current vicious and ugly state,” Wang Wan said.
“Listening to you, I’m a little curious about him. Do you have any way to contact this Mr. Ji?” Lu Jing asked.
“There is one more thing,” Wang Wan paused and continued, “This time it’s no longer a meaningless thing. Please, Great Hero Lu, do this matter for me, considering that I have just said everything I know.”
“What is it?”
“Help me kill my gatekeeper, Han Bo,” Wang Wan said shockingly.
“What, isn’t it enough that you killed your own husband? You don’t even want to let go of a gatekeeper?” Lu Jing sneered, “The underworld doesn’t need someone to help you guard the door, right?”
“Although Han Bo did a good job of guarding my courtyard door, I’m not asking you to kill him because of this,” Wang Wan said calmly, “I have done a lot of bad things over the years, some of which I did myself, but more often than not, I couldn’t do it alone and needed the help of others.
“My two right-hand men, the maid Jian Zhu, has already been killed by you, so now only Han Bo is left.”
Lu Jing was a little stunned, “Why are you betraying your companions?”
“Because Han Bo knows many of my secrets, and he has seen me refining strange objects many times. I know he is secretly learning, and his desire for power even exceeds mine. Now that I am gone, as long as he escapes this ordeal, he will definitely continue to do evil.
“Fortunately, he shouldn’t have run far yet. With the Great Hero Lu’s skills and influence in Wu Jiang City, it shouldn’t be difficult to catch him.”
Wang Wan smiled charmingly again, “Actually, I still have a last wish, but I know that the Great Hero Lu will definitely not agree, so it’s better not to say it. Okay, I have finished saying all my requests, now it’s time to talk about how to wake up Sister Yan.
“When it’s midnight, find a well with moonlight reflected in it, scoop a bowl of water, first hold a mouthful in your mouth, then pass it mouth to mouth into her mouth, and then call her name three times in her ear, and she will naturally wake up. Remember to hold it in your mouth first, if there is no yang energy in the water, it will be useless.”
Lu Jing frowned again when he heard this, “Does it have to be me? Can’t someone else do it?”
“Yes, any man can do it, you can do it yourself,” Wang Wan’s mouth raised, with a bit of teasing.
In the end, she put away her smile and signaled that Lu Jing could start.
“Although I am full of evil, I have lived this life according to my own wishes, so I have no regrets even in death!”
Lu Jing raised the Zen staff in his hand and shook his head, “There is nothing wrong with pursuing freedom, but this is not a reason for you to wantonly hurt others.”
