The wings

There were dozens of women in Lu Yang's residence. They either looked similar to Gu Xin or had the skills that Gu Xin had learned in the brothel.

Every year, Lu Zheng would take a lock of hair the size of a chopstick and a thumb from them. He would also take away their cut nails. On the 15th day of the first lunar month, he would force them to give a bowl of blood, and then treat them with good food and drink.

It had been half a year since the first girl who entered the public house after Gu Xin's death.

During this period, eight lantern festivals had passed, and the first batch of girls had their blood drained eight times.

In the last year of the Lantern Festival, Lu Zheng had finally tormented himself to death.
