Chapter 119 Master's Mask
"Xiao Yu, she is really weird. The smile on the mask is so weird. It's a bit creepy in this hot summer."
Song Yingqing got goosebumps and couldn't help but whisper to Nan Yu.
There was no trace of fear on Nan Yu's face. Instead, she stared at the mask with a hint of nostalgia in her eyes.
She bit her lower lip until it broke, and then she tasted blood in her mouth, then she slowly spoke.
"Ying Qing, she is my senior sister Gu Chuxin."
Everyone surrounded Gu Chuxin at the door. No one noticed Song Yingqing and Nan Yu, and no one heard what they said.
Song Yingqing quickly asked her, "Xiaoyu, are you sure?"
Nan Yu didn't hesitate at all.
"The mask on her face is the mask my master always wore when he practiced medicine under the name of Ghost Doctor."
His voice became hoarse, as if he was suppressing some kind of pain.
Song Yingqing stood there in a daze.
"I remember you said that the title of 'Ghost Doctor' was passed down from generation to generation by your sect a long time ago. Each generation would pass the title of 'Ghost Doctor' to the most talented and capable disciple."
"To become a 'ghost doctor', one must remain mysterious while practicing medicine and focus on curing illnesses and saving lives, rather than letting others focus on the 'ghost doctor' himself. That's why your master has always practiced medicine wearing a mask."
Nan Yu nodded, "Yes, this is the mask my master wore. I thought the mask was buried with my master, but I didn't expect it to be in her hands."
Song Yingqing narrowed her eyes and had a bold guess in her mind.
"Xiao Yu, do you think it's possible that your master was killed by your senior sister?"
Nan Yu suddenly raised her head and looked at her, emotions surging in her eyes.
Song Yingqing thought she had said something wrong and quickly said, "I was just guessing, maybe it wasn't her..."
Nan Yu retracted her gaze and interrupted directly: "I once suspected it, but I didn't have any evidence."
She paused for a second and said in a quiet voice, "The master passed away suddenly that year, and she disappeared overnight. Everything is too coincidental and strange."
"I spent a lot of effort looking for her, but it was as if she was deliberately avoiding me. All the news disappeared out of thin air, as if she had never existed."
Song Yingqing understood the meaning of her words.
"So you want to meet her now and find out the truth of what happened?"
Nan Yu nodded gently. "I can't make random guesses without any evidence. I just want to find out the truth of what happened back then and know all the facts."
Song Yingqing looked at the determination in her eyes and asked, "What if she is found to be the murderer?"
Nan Yu turned her head and looked at her, saying without hesitation: "Then I will definitely not let her go."
This is not only for myself, but also for my master!
Song Yingqing held her hands tightly, "I will help you find the truth of that year!"
The noise at the door became louder and Gu Chuxin walked in.
She saw Nan Yu standing inside at a glance.
Gu Chuxin stopped at the door and looked at Nan Yu from afar, with countless people supporting her behind her.
Nan Yu stood at the innermost, with only Song Yingqing behind her, looking lonely.
The two looked at each other, and the air froze.
In an instant, it was as if divided into two hostile camps.
The first person to break the stiff atmosphere was Li Chongbai.
He walked out from behind Gu Chuxin, came to Nanyu's camp, turned around and said to Gu Chuxin with a smile.
"Vice President Gu, this is the person I want to introduce to you. Her name is Nan Yu, and she has always wanted to meet you."
