075 Justified
"Why is the Laughing Protector suddenly worried that the jade-faced Langjun is coming? If I'm not mistaken, the relationship between the two of you shouldn't be good. β
The laughing daughter gritted her teeth and was silent.
"Jade Mask Lang Jun was originally ordered by the Demon Sect Leader to come to Shangjing to arrest you, and he was supposed to divide you into pieces, but he changed his mind halfway through and cooperated with you, which is really strange. He is not an ordinary person, I don't know what clever means the Dharma Protector used to trick him into taking such a big risk? Ji Liansong gently rubbed the jade chess piece in his palm and looked at her meaningfully.
Xiao Qianjin tugged at the corners of her mouth: "Don't forget, when you and that woman escaped from the Demon Sect, you gave Jade Mian Langjun three silver needles, and he naturally hates you as much as I do." β
Ji Lian Song sneered lightly when he heard this: "If he wants to avenge the silver needle, why should he cooperate with you?" β
Her expression changed slightly, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes: "You are cunning, and it is naturally better for him to deal with you if he cooperates with me." β
"Jade-faced Langjun is the most conceited, how can he cooperate with you in order to deal with me? No matter how cunning I am, he won't take it seriously. Unlessβ"
Smile Qianjin's eyes flashed, waiting for his next.
Ji Lian Song threw away the chess pieces in his hand, put down the jasper bowl, glanced at Cishuang, and ordered him: "Untie the bag." β
Cishuang leaned over and pulled the rope on the mouth of the sack, grabbed the sack and pushed it out, plopped, and a person rolled out of it!
The smile of the golden pupil shrank, and her face changed greatly.
Among the sacks is none other than the jade-faced Langjun who fell into the trap earlier!
His eyes were closed, his face was the color of earth, and his limbs were limp to the ground, lying in front of her like a dead body.
Ji Lian Song looked at Xiao Qianjin and said slowly: "He fell into the nine-yuan dry well, with a thousand needles in his body, and there is still a breath in his body, you say, should I save him?" β
It's a nine-yuan dry well!
This man has set up such a vicious mechanism in his house!
Xiao Qianjin's eyes were shocked: "What do you want to do?" β
Ji Lian Song stared at her for a long time, taking the subtle changes in her expression into her eyes one by one, she pursed her lips and smiled, turned her head suddenly, raised her hand and pointed at the jade-faced Langjun lying on the ground: "Cishuang, search his body!" β
Cishuang knelt on one knee and groped with her hands against the body of the jade-faced Langjun.
Ji Lian Song held his chin with one hand, and watched with great interest the face of the smiling daughter sinking little by little.
Within a moment, Ci Shuang found a page from under the belt of the jade-faced Langjun.
Ji Lian Song took the page from Cishuang's hand, didn't open it, just put it in his hand, and looked at the smiling daughter with his eyes smiling: "I guess, I'm afraid this is one of the pages in the codex?" β
Xiao Qianjin suddenly opened her eyes: "How do you know?!" β
Ji Lian Song was silent, she looked at him in a daze, thinking about the past, and felt a chill in her heart: "I see, you did everything possible to get close to me because I had that codex...... What you want has always been just the treasure of the West Side Vault! β
Ji Lian Song was still silent, and smiled sarcastically: "Three years ago, you knew that the sect leader had the codex left by the treasure burying man, and the Demon Sect was also trying to find out the whereabouts of the codex for you?" Later, when the codex is in my hand, you will try your best to get close to me! I see, I see...... Hahaha...... Ridiculous, ridiculous! β
Ji Liansong saw her laughing wildly, and his eyes narrowed: "What's so ridiculous?" β
Xiao Qianjin couldn't breathe with laughter, she clutched her chest and exhaled repeatedly: "To tell you the truth, I only have one page of the Codex in my hand, that is to say, all your plans and designs in the past three years are just in vain!" Then he burst out laughing.
Ji Liansong looked at her expressionlessly and smiled, looking flat, but the chill in the depths of his eyes was like an ice cliff, which was daunting.
"You are all fools! When the jade-faced Langjun got a page from me, he thought that I had a whole codex here, and he promised to kill you with me for the sake of treasure, and you are no better off being a master of Ji, and it is ridiculous and pitiful to go to such great lengths for a codex that does not exist at all! β
She laughed wildly, and stopped laughing abruptly when she saw the object he had slowly taken out from under his sleeve.
What Ji Liansong took out from under his sleeve was an old book with a yellowed cover, which looked old and dilapidated, and it was stained with a lot of old stains.
His fingers were slender and white, falling on the yellowed paper, like pearls and jade, and it was shocking to look at.
The booklet was gently opened, and he picked up the page and put it in the book, and closed it gently.
Xiao Qianjin was stunned, looking at the booklet in his hand, speechless.
How so?
How can it be?
It's the Codex, a complete Codex!
Ji Lian Song put the codex away again, slowly raised his eyelashes, and looked at her with a calm gaze, as deep as a cold pool: "This codex is my Ji family's thing, the so-called Xicheng treasure is the vault opened by the ancestors of the Ji family, and the Ji family took back the key to the vault but returned it to its original owner." β
This codex is Ji's thing!
The so-called Xicheng treasure is nothing but a treasury opened by the ancestors of the Ji family!
These two sentences were like two flat thunders, which exploded in her ears and echoed for a long time.
His eyebrows were cold and clear, his eyes were misty, and his tone was shallow, as if he were just talking about a very ordinary thing.
"This is the page I want to get back from you. The Ji family wants to get back the key to the vault, which is justified, and if other demon sects or royal families want to take this treasury for themselves, they are just bandits, which is morally intolerable. β
Xiao Qianjin sat slumped on the ground, shocked, but also at a loss: "Didn't you get the key to the vault in the ice cave, then why did you ......?"
He glanced at her and said lightly, "The key in the ice cave is fake." β
β¦β¦
The next morning, Jiang Yirou woke up on the couch leisurely, and found that the stinging pain in her shoulder was faint, her head was dizzy, and she couldn't get up for a while. She put her hand over her forehead and let out a long breath.
It seems that Ji Lian Song is not all about scaring her, her injury is indeed not light.
She closed her eyes and rested for a moment before getting up to wash and dress.
Last night, she rested in the couch in the outer room of Su Peiran's room, and then through the gap in the bead curtain, she could see Su Peiran's half-bent body leaning on the bed.
Seeing that Su Peiran was still asleep, Jiang Yirou relaxed her movements, pushed the door and quietly came out.
The locust trees in the courtyard have fallen some leaves, scattered on the ground, and the wind is blowing, which sounds a little unspeakably sad.
A young man in brocade clothes stood quietly under the tree, with a silver-white hairband tied on the azure shirt and water-satin-like green silk.
Jiang Yirou's eyes opened, and she was full of excitement, and she suddenly woke up, early in the morning, how could there be a man standing in this sparse courtyard?
