Chapter 15 Jun Wuchen
He smiled and agreed, never imagining it would become a promise he couldn't keep.
For the past few years, he has lived a life that is neither human nor ghost, never leaving the stone chamber, nor has he seen Liuyue again.
"Second uncle."
"You must be very curious about why your second uncle didn't die." Old Master Jun sighed. "Back then, your second uncle was ordered to go to war, but he was framed by the Mu family and lured into a group of demonic beasts. When they found out, your second uncle was seriously poisoned. I originally thought... Mu Shen would save him, so I went to invite Mu Shen, but I didn't expect Mu Shen to secretly kill your second uncle. At that time, I realized that the Mu family had wanted to eliminate the Jun family for a long time."
The old man sighed: "All these years, I haven't told you because I didn't want you to bear too much burden. I wanted you to grow up happily, but now... the royal family and the Mu family are eyeing the Jun family covetously. I'm sorry, I have no choice but to tell you this."
If this girl remains the same as before, he will keep this secret forever.
However, he also knew that the royal family disliked the Jun family but coveted their wealth and power, wanting to take it all back.
As soon as he falls from power, the Mu and Sikong families will immediately devour the Jun family.
“Grandpa, I know.” Jun Liuyue nodded: “You used to protect me, now it’s my turn to protect you.”
The girl gave Jun Wuchen a deep look. The young general had been framed by a villain, his legs crippled, and he was forced to live in a dark and gloomy stone chamber.
"Second Uncle, can I take a look at your leg?"
Jun Liuyue spoke.
"Girl, my leg won't get better, don't waste your time." Jun Wuchen shook his head. Over the years, his father had tried many methods for him.
But it had no effect at all. At first, I could still feel my legs, but as time went on, I could no longer feel them at all.
"Wuchen, why don't you let Yueya take a look?"
The old man spoke, a glimmer of hope rising in his heart. If it weren't for this girl, he would have already gone mad with evil.
“Alright.” Jun Wuchen nodded.
Jun Liuyue stepped forward and lifted the blanket covering Jun Wuchen's knees. The veins on his entire leg were clearly visible, and they had atrophied beyond recognition.
“It is indeed quite difficult.” Liu Yue frowned. “However, it’s not impossible for her to stand up.”
"Yue'er, are you just trying to make your second uncle happy?" Jun Wuchen said in astonishment. "Yue'er, your second uncle knows you are a good child, but your second uncle is already a cripple, so nothing matters to him anymore."
He's used to it.
"I'm 70% confident I can help Second Uncle stand up again, but the process will be somewhat painful. Second Uncle, are you willing?"
"You...what did you say?"
Seventy percent!
Even though he had been pulled back from the brink of death, the doctor whom Old Master Jun had secretly brought back only said there was a 10% chance of success, but in the end it was still useless.
"There's still a 30% chance that you, Second Uncle, can handle the pain. If you can, your leg will definitely heal."
Jun Liuyue nodded gently.
After a few seconds of silence, Jun Wuchen's breathing became heavier: "Pain, what could be more painful than being a living dead?"
"Yue girl, can you really cure your second uncle's leg?" Old Master Jun was stunned.
“Grandpa, when have I ever lied to you?” Liu Yue said helplessly. “I’m going to give Second Uncle acupuncture to remove the demonic poison from his legs, but there’s one more thing that I need Grandpa’s cooperation on.”
"what?"
"To cure Uncle's leg, we need a lot of medicine, so I might need to spend a lot of money. Grandpa, you won't have any objections, will you?"
The pills she refined in her previous life, although they are all in her soul space, are too potent. If Jun Wuchen were to take them now, he would explode within seconds.
"Of course not! You can empty the warehouse if you want!" Money is just an external thing.
However—the old man doesn't know now that he won't be laughing anymore soon.
Because this girl spends money too fast! Faster than water flowing away.
A wicked glint flashed in Jun Liuyue's eyes. If she wanted to save a life, even the King of Hell had never managed to snatch it from her grasp.
Jun Wuchen thought he could bear the pain, but when Liuyue began to administer acupuncture...
The pain instantly spread throughout my body, as if millions of ants were biting me.
Jun Wuchen let out a muffled groan, nearly fainting several times.
But he remembered Liuyue's words: no matter how much pain he was in, he couldn't faint.
Otherwise, all our previous efforts will be in vain!
The fishy, foul smell instantly spread throughout the stone chamber, masking the original medicinal fragrance.
This method of treatment was something even the well-informed old man had never seen before.
They didn't dare to breathe.
Soon, Jun Wuchen's legs were covered in black blood, which flowed all over the ground. The toxic blood that had accumulated over the years was released.
However, releasing the poisoned blood is only the first step; getting Jun Wuchen back to his feet requires much more.
This kind of pain is unbearable for ordinary people, but Jun Wuchen endured it.
She took out a bottle of basic medicine and gave it to Jun Wuchen to drink.
The medicine entered the body and was absorbed instantly, but this was followed by a new round of excruciating pain.
"Second Uncle, hold back."
The marrow-cleansing medicine can destroy the meridians and then rebuild them.
This medicinal liquid is most useful to Jun Wuchen right now.
"puff!"
After a long while, Jun Wuchen spat out a mouthful of black blood, his entire body exuding a strange blackish-red hue.
"Alright." Liu Yue stood up. She didn't like the smell of blood, especially the poisonous blood that had accumulated for several years.
I managed to hold it in and didn't vomit.
"Wu, Wuchen, are you feeling better?" Old Master Jun didn't dare to speak until Liuyue spoke, then he dared to step forward.
I was afraid of disturbing Liuyue.
The old man was a man of great experience and knowledge; if a doctor were to be interrupted during treatment, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Father, I feel...much better."
Despite vomiting so much blood, Jun Wuchen felt an unprecedented sense of relief.
Although I still can't feel my legs.
"I can only force the poison out of my second uncle's body first. It will take some time before he can stand up again," Liu Yue said truthfully.
Jun Wuchen's legs had atrophied too much, and the poisonous blood kept accumulating in his legs.
The tendons and ligaments in my legs are almost completely destroyed.
For the past five years, Jun Wuchen has endured immense pain every day, yet he has not gone mad.
Jun Liuyue rarely admired anyone, but Jun Wuchen was one of them!
"Good, good, good!" The old man laughed heartily, his laughter echoing in the stone chamber: "Yue'er, you are truly Grandpa's little lucky star."
If Wuchen could stand up, the Jun family wouldn't be without a successor.
“However, Uncle can no longer stay here.” Liu Yue glanced around. “This place has too much yin energy, which is not good for Uncle’s recovery.”
"But--"
The old man hesitated, as there were indeed many spies in the mansion. If the royal family found out that Wuchen was still alive...
I'm afraid they won't let this go easily.
"Linyuan is a nice place, very suitable for Second Uncle to recuperate."
Lin Yuan is located in the northwest of the Jun family compound. It used to be where Jun Jing lived, but after Jun Jing died, Lin Yuan was sealed off.
"But……"
“Grandpa, everyone is afraid of ghosts. If Lin Courtyard is haunted, no one will dare to go there.” Liu Yue lowered her eyes and said with a smile, “What do you think of this suggestion, Grandpa?”
"Ha! The old man is really stupid, he didn't even think of that!" The old man slapped his forehead. The Lin Courtyard and the main courtyard were some distance apart, and apart from the servants who did the cleaning, no one went there at all.
"We can also take care of the Jun family's spies while we're at it."
“Yue’er is right. If our Jun family wants to break free from its shackles, the first step is to kick out all the spies in the mansion.”
"But if..." The old man still hesitated, knowing that there were spies in the mansion.
These spies would report to the royal family, but it was also because of these spies' reports over the years that Emperor Sikong temporarily became less wary of the Jun family.
If we simply eliminate these spies, wouldn't that only increase the emperor's suspicions?
Unless absolutely necessary, Old Master Jun still did not want to be enemies with the royal family.
The concept of loyalty was almost ingrained in Jun Tianlan's very being.
If it weren't for blind loyalty, wouldn't the royal family be so hampered?
Jun Liuyue saw through the old man's thoughts and asked, "How has the Jun family been doing all these years?"
Okay? Okay my ass!
"Since even groveling and begging won't make the dog emperor let the Jun family off the hook, why not try a different approach?"
Liu Yue raised her eyebrows, arrogant and confident. Anyone who can't tolerate me, I'll destroy them!
“Yue’er, this…” The old man still hesitated.
“Father, Yue’er is right.” After a long silence, Jun Wuchen nodded: “Let’s listen to Yue’er.”
"Sigh, alright then." The old man nodded helplessly.
Jun Wuchen moved from the stone chamber to the Lin Academy, and soon news spread that the Lin Academy was haunted.
In the middle of the night, a maid who was in charge of cleaning saw the young master's shadow!
He was so frightened that he fainted on the spot.
Junjing has been dead for many years, how could he still be alive? There's not even a trace of his body left!
The rumors of it being haunted spread throughout the entire Jun family in no time.
The spies in the manor could no longer contain themselves and broke into Lin Courtyard late at night.
He had barely stepped into the Lin Academy when, bang! An arrow flew towards him, sending him flying and piercing through his shoulder blade.
"Wang An? How could it be you?"
