The years I was in the human world

The swirling air currents blew the paper people everywhere. Lu Zhouxue struck while the iron was hot and threw out the fire-falling talisman to set them on fire. Fearing that the negative energy in these paper people was too strong to be burned, Lu Zhouxue added a mouthful of blood from the tip of his tongue. Soon, flames soared into the sky from the paper people, and the entire ancestral hall was burned down along with it.

As the flames subsided, the surrounding scenery did not change. There were still red pavilions with carved beams and painted rafters. Some of the pavilions were filled with singing and dancing. It looked very lively. However, when one saw the paper figures guarding everywhere, one could not help but realize that all of this was just an illusion of the underworld.

All the paper people were taken care of, but Lu Zhouxue's wedding dress didn't change at all, and his bulging belly showed no signs of subsiding. His stomach felt heavy, and Lu Zhouxue's waist ached unbearably. He had no choice but to support his stomach with one hand and hold the wall with the other hand and walk slowly forward, trying to find a way to leave here.

"Why is your majesty here? It's so easy for us to find you." A paper maid came over and lifted up Lu Zhouxue's arm, helping him to the bedroom. She noticed Lu Zhouxue's bulging belly, but she didn't react as violently as the paper dolls in the ancestral hall. Instead, she said with concern, "Your majesty is pregnant, and your majesty should pay more attention to her body."

Little prince? What does that mean? Lu Zhouxue was helped by the paper doll to sit on the bed in the bedroom. The maid picked up the veil she had thrown away from somewhere and put it back on. She said, "It's a big day, and the prince hasn't come yet. Your Majesty should not take off the veil casually."

No maid would dare to speak to her master like this, and no bride would marry into the family with a big belly. There was no noise of wedding in the front hall, and although the backyard was decorated with big red lanterns, it was deserted, as if there was only one bride, Lu Zhouxue, in the huge mansion.

When the bride got off the sedan chair, paper money was scattered on the ground, a coffin was pressed under the sedan chair, and the maid who accompanied the bride was a paper figure. There was something weird about this marriage from beginning to end.

As soon as the girl walked away, she pulled off the veil on her head. The groom had asked him to kill her from the beginning, so how could anyone come to take off the veil for him? Besides, he was not the real bride, so was he just waiting there like an idiot?

As for the Crown Prince mentioned by the paper maid, a strange look flashed across Lu Zhouxue's face. The ceremony was indeed the standard for a crown prince's wedding, but which dynasty was this crown prince? Inexplicably, Lu Zhouxue thought of the story Xiao Fengzhuo told her before bed, and thought to herself, it can't be such a coincidence, right?

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden noise at the door, and the maid respectfully called out "Your Highness the Crown Prince". Lu Zhouxue turned his head and saw that the candlelight cast a shadow on the window. He was a little surprised that the so-called groom actually came.

Lu Zhouxue calmly picked up the red veil and put it on, but in fact she was staring at the tiny gap under the veil and secretly observing the situation.

Only a slight sound of the door opening was heard, and the groom opened the door and came in. The door closed gently again, and then a slender and powerful calf came into Lu Zhouxue's sight, wrapped in a bright red wedding dress.

The groom did not say anything. He walked in front of Lu Zhouxue and was not in a hurry to lift the veil. Instead, he stood there and looked at him quietly. Lu Zhouxue waited for a while. Suddenly, he moved his ears and seemed to hear a little breathing sound.

Finding that the breathing sound might not come from him, Lu Zhouxue quickly held his breath. In the dead silence, the breathing sound gradually became clearer, and then the groom chuckled, bent down, stretched out his hand to lift Lu Zhouxue's red veil, looked at him and said with a smile: "Mianmian looks so beautiful tonight."

"Azhuo?" Lu Zhouxue looked at Xiao Fengzhuo in a surprised look. He had never expected him to be here. "How did you become the groom?"

"I don't know." Xiao Fengzhuo shook his head. He looked at Lu Zhouxue's gorgeous bun even after removing some of her hairpins and rings. He sincerely liked the way she was dressed. He spoke more gently unconsciously, "I didn't expect the bride to be Mianmian. If I had known, I would have returned to the bridal chamber earlier."

"You're still joking at this hour." Lu Zhouxue glared at him, but still felt relieved. However, he soon felt relieved again, "Kong Qing is not with you?"

"She disappeared with you, how could she be here with me?" Xiao Fengzhuo was a little helpless, but he also understood that Lu Zhouxue was worried about Kong Que, and then he comforted her, "Don't worry too much about that girl, she is half a demon after all, she is not as vulnerable as you think."

Lu Zhouxue just felt that Xiao Fengzhuo was talking nonsense. There was something so weird about this that he couldn't figure it out. How could Kong Que handle it alone? But he also knew that haste makes waste, so although he was worried, he didn't do anything out of concern.

"You still have time to care about others, think about yourself." Although Lu Zhouxue's clothes were heavy, they could not cover the curve of her abdomen. Xiao Fengzhao was not blind, so he could see it. He looked at Lu Zhouxue's bulging belly, frowned, and asked, "What's wrong with your belly?"

"I don't know. It was like this when I woke up in the bridal sedan." Lu Zhouxue shook his head. His left hand subconsciously supported his belly. The cold face, the bright red wedding dress, and the pregnant woman's belly, several elements all gathered on him, revealing a strange and contradictory attraction.

But he obviously didn't know this. He subconsciously stroked his stomach and said in a daze, "That thing...it's inside, and it moves."

"Can it still move?" Not only Lu Zhouxue couldn't understand, Xiao Fengzhuo couldn't understand either. The latter was shocked after hearing his words. The words "Mianmian, tell me the truth, are you a girl?" were stuck in his throat and he endured it again and again, but in the end he didn't ask.

"Really, it oppresses me sometimes." As if to prove that what she said was true, Lu Zhouxue untied her wedding dress without thinking, took Xiao Fengzhuo's hand and put it on her naked belly. As if she didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, Lu Zhouxue still sighed: "So this is what it feels like for a pregnant woman."

Xiao Fengzhuo: "..." He silently reached out and poked Lu Zhouxue's head, wanting to open it to see what was inside, "Mianmian, do you still remember that you are a man?"

"Men can't get pregnant, you don't need to remind me." Lu Zhouxue was certainly not crazy. He was so calm now only because he found that he couldn't solve the problem of what was in his stomach. His divine power was decreasing, and the evil spirits and old illnesses were constantly weakening his strength. The thing in his stomach was connected to his flesh and blood, and it was constantly sucking his vitality, so he couldn't see through it, and couldn't solve it.

"I can't do anything about it." Lu Zhouxue said, his tone as indifferent as ever, but then he handed Xiao Fengzhuo a knife made of frost, and looked at him seriously and trustingly, "Azhuo, I need you to help me cut it out."

"Catheterize it?" Xiao Fengzhuo's eyebrows jumped. He took the knife from Lu Zhouxue, but did not do what the latter said immediately. He stared at Lu Zhouxue seriously for a while, and then said, "Mianmian, I don't know why you don't care about your body so much and make such a hasty decision, but I won't let you do whatever you want."

Lu Zhouxue tilted her head and looked at him, expressionless. After a moment, she condensed a knife again and said calmly, "Then I will do it myself."

"Mianmian!" Xiao Fengzhuo hurriedly grabbed Lu Zhouxue's wrist, coaxing him and reasoning with him, "Let's think of a way to find out what's in your stomach and then prescribe the right medicine. Don't make it so bloody. Be obedient, okay?"

"I know." Lu Zhouxue knew what Xiao Fengzhuo meant, and he did not struggle. He just stated a fact to him objectively and directly, "But Ah Zhuo, this is the fastest way. No matter what it is, it will eventually leave my stomach, right?"

Xiao Fengzhuo was silent. He knew very well that there was some kind of negative fallacy in Lu Zhouxue's words, but he couldn't refute it. It was not that he didn't know what to say, but he knew that he couldn't persuade Lu Zhouxue. Xiao Fengzhuo sighed: "Lie down on the bed, I'll cut open your uterus."

Lu Zhouxue got up and went to the bed with her big belly in her hands. Xiao Fengzhuo turned on the lamp and came over. He looked up and saw her leaning against the pillow and the bed, looking at him quietly. Her wedding dress was open on both sides, and only a thin layer of inner clothes was still on. Her bulging belly made her slender figure look so big that it was a little scary. She looked a lot more fragile, like a docile female beast.

Xiao Fengzhuo pursed his lips, sat down beside the bed, put the oil lamp on the bedside, took out a folded handkerchief from his arms and handed it to Lu Zhouxue: "Bite it, I can't make you not feel pain, don't bite your tongue."

Lu Zhouxue did not take it with her hands, but leaned over, gently opened her mouth and bit the handkerchief directly, staring at Xiao Fengzhuo from beginning to end. The latter suddenly clenched the ice knife in his hand, feeling that he seemed to be a little too excited.

Xiao Fengzhuo calmed himself down. He reached out to unbutton Lu Zhouxue's underwear, but when he saw the condition of the latter's stomach clearly, all his romantic thoughts disappeared.

Lu Zhouxue's skin was extremely white, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was as transparent as jade, but now her belly was bulging high, stretched to the point of being almost transparent, and inside was a dark blue unknown object, ugly and disgusting. Xiao Fengzhuo was obviously shocked, but he was still calm and said, "Bear with it."

Then the hand holding the knife steadily and fiercely cut a hole on the side of the abdominal ball. The cut was the same abnormal green color. The thing inside moved again when it came into contact with the air, and the wound was torn open even wider, but the thing showed no sign of coming out.

"Does it hurt?" Xiao Fengzhuo stopped his actions temporarily. He raised his head and looked at Lu Zhouxue worriedly. The latter shook his head.

Xiao Fengzhuo felt slightly relieved. He hardened his heart and simply plunged the ice knife into the green thing. Lu Zhouxue's body suddenly tensed up, and his already bad face suddenly turned pale. Cold sweat immediately broke out. It hurt.

"This thing has grown together with your flesh and blood. Bear with it. I will cut it out for you." Xiao Fengzhuo said as he cut the gash on Lu Zhouxue's stomach bigger. He reached in with his other hand and grabbed the limp thing and pulled it out directly. With a flick of the knife, he cut the thing off alive.

Lu Zhouxue groaned, his teeth clenched for a moment, and his eyes turned red. Xiao Fengzhuo didn't bother to comfort him, he burned the things he pulled out, and then urged his spiritual power to help Lu Zhouxue heal the wound.

Seeing Lu Zhouxue's stomach become flat again and the wound on her head gradually healed, Xiao Fengzhuo breathed a sigh of relief. He performed a body cleansing technique to clean the blood stains on him and Lu Zhouxue. He then helped the person lying in pain to stand up and put him in his arms. He reached out and stroked Lu Zhouxue's sweaty forehead, holding her face and said lovingly, "It was taken out by Caesarean section. It's okay, it's okay."

Lu Zhouxue spat out the handkerchief in his mouth, leaving a deep gum mark on it. He breathed a little heavily, and touched the place that was so erect just now with lingering fear. It hurt, it really hurt. When Xiao Fengzhuo pulled that thing out, Lu Zhouxue almost fainted from the pain.

"It's okay. It doesn't hurt anymore." Xiao Fengzhuo almost hugged Lu Zhouxue in his arms. He was usually carefree, but now he was hugging her and coaxing her softly. While coaxing her, he didn't forget to bring up the main business, "I recognize the thing in your stomach. It's the Heartbreak Gu."

"Heart-breaking Gu?" Lu Zhouxue looked up with a puzzled look.

"Yes, it's something the demon race uses to deal with people with higher cultivation." Xiao Fengzhuo gathered Lu Zhouxue's open collar. The latter tilted her head back to look at him. From this angle, he could see her entire snow-white chest clearly. Lu Zhouxue had always been dignified, so this was not quite appropriate. "It will grow into people's flesh and blood, absorbing spiritual power to survive. The stronger the spiritual power, the faster it grows. The cultivator who is parasitized will quickly wither."

"This thing is extremely sinister and poisonous, but unless the cultivator eats it himself, he will not survive at all. How did it appear in your stomach?" Xiao Fengzhuo looked at Lu Zhouxue seriously and asked. The latter was very powerful and now possessed divine bones. It was not surprising that someone would use such a sinister method to deal with him, but what Xiao Fengzhuo found puzzling was that Lu Zhouxue actually fell into the trap.

"I don't know." Lu Zhouxue shook his head, looking a little hesitant. He was not greedy for food and seldom ate. The only thing he had eaten was... He subconsciously didn't want to doubt it. After all, there was no reason to harm him, right?

"Forget it. This is not the time to dwell on this." Xiao Fengzhuo sighed and continued, worriedly, "The intestinal worm has taken root in your stomach. Although I dealt with it just now, I didn't get rid of it completely. It will grow again."

"It will continue to grow?" Lu Zhouxue asked in surprise. He was in so much pain just now, but this was only a temporary solution and not a cure for the disease?

"Yeah." Xiao Fengzhuo naturally felt distressed when he saw how much pain he was in just now, but that was the fact. Before completely getting rid of the intestinal worm, Lu Zhouxuezhi had to cut open his stomach again and again to cut out the grown worm, and then it would grow again next time, and this cycle would continue.
