Chapter 179 Murong's Broken Arm
"Why do you think the snake egg is hidden in the jade drum?" Murong Yao wanted to figure out where she went wrong and was found out.
"I couldn't guess it at first, but when I learned that Young Master Murong was a Chehu person but lied and said he was a Yuehua person, everything became clear."
Fang Duobing explained Murong Yao's doubts.
"Then how do you come to believe that I am also a Chehu person?"
"Because Young Master Murong contradicts himself. The moon shines over the vast yellow sands, and the people of this country fear water, yet Young Master Murong is dashing and carefree on the bamboo boat, showing no fear whatsoever."
Fang Duobing recalled how Murong Yao looked arrogant and domineering on the water in the light boat, showing no fear of water whatsoever.
"It's reasonable for someone entering a woman's house for the first time not to take a bath, but there's another possibility: you might want to hide your hair color."
"So after we suspected you, we went to your room and found something." Fang Duobing took out a purse from the evidence, pulled out a hair from the purse, and held it up in front of him.
"Your hair ends are jet black, but the roots are reddish-yellow. Is your hair dyed?"
Wu You: The ancient hair dyeing techniques were still immature. Not only could you not wash it with water, but you also couldn't bleach and dye your entire head. It's best not to try it.
"You two are indeed very thoughtful."
At this point, Murong Yao had no way to refute it.
"So the three of you conspired to kill someone?"
Someone asked timidly.
“It wasn’t a conspiracy, but rather I forced them, and they dared not disobey.”
"You..." Chi Long tried to say something, but was interrupted by Murong Yao.
“I coveted Yulouchun’s treasure, which is why I coerced you and Bihuang. None of this has anything to do with you. Now that the truth has been revealed, the blame lies with me. No one will force or harm you anymore. Go down the mountain and live a good life.”
Murong Yao took all the blame upon herself.
"I······"
"Red Dragon, be good."
Those who knew the story and saw this scene understood why Murong Yao said those words, and they all felt the sorrow of this world.
"Why go to such lengths to covet treasure?"
Regardless, Fang Duobing will bring the truth to light and condemn the evil to eternal damnation.
"Does Young Master Fang mean that I was too harsh on Yu Louchun?"
"You're too hard on yourself," Fang Duobing bluntly stated.
"I don't understand what Young Master Fang is saying," Murong Yao denied Fang Duobing's words.
"Of course you won't understand, because you're unwilling to admit it at all. I have a question for you: when did you throw this first severed arm onto Guanri Pavilion?"
"It was after I killed Yu Louchun that night," Murong Yao replied without hesitation.
“No, Guanri Pavilion is outside the women’s residence and is guarded, so you have no chance. Your only chance is when you climb the mountain with us early in the morning to watch the sunrise.”
Fang Duobing's rejection drew questions from others.
"But we went to the sunrise together that day, and I didn't see him carrying any packages. With a severed arm, he probably couldn't have hidden it, could he?"
That's why I said, why did you have to go to such lengths?
As Fang Duobing continued speaking, he took two steps closer to Murong Yao and, taking advantage of Murong Yao's inattention, swiftly attacked his shoulder.
Fang Duobing attacked too quickly, and Murong Yao was unable to react in time, and was forced to take two steps back.
All the people heard was the sound of something falling, and then they saw a piece of wooden arm fall out of Murong Yao's cloak.
This unexpected turn of events shocked and amazed everyone.
"When did you lose your arm?"
"Watching you dance amidst a mountain of red wine banquets, you're clearly still perfectly fine."
This is what I saw with my own eyes back then, and now it's like this...
