Chapter 337: Human-Faced Beasts

Squeak.

A soft sound suddenly sounded.

Just as I squatted down to relieve Xiao He of the burden, the door of my room was gently pushed open without warning.

I was startled and looked up at the door.

After the door was pushed open, a slender figure flashed in the doorway like a ghost.

"Who?"

"What are you doing!"

My voice sank, and I suddenly asked.

Unexpectedly, the slender and slender figure who had just come in also opened his mouth and scolded at the same time.

I and the slender figure that came in opened our mouths to question each other almost at the same time, our voices full of vigilance and surprise.

"Miss Ji, is that you?"

As soon as the slender and slender figure spoke, I immediately heard that she was Ji Yanran.

In the middle of the night, what is she doing in my room?

"The surname is Li, you, what are you doing here?" As soon as I heard that it was Ji Yanran, she walked a few steps to me, and when she saw Xiao He lying on the ground and still oozing blood on her forehead, she glanced at my hand that stopped on Xiao He's button, her little face changed suddenly, and a pair of Danfeng eyes couldn't tell whether it was fear or disappointment, vigilantly took a few steps back, and looked at me with a trembling voice, "I didn't expect that you, surnamed Li, you are actually this kind of person......"

The moment I saw Ji Yanran look at me, I knew that she had completely misunderstood.

I quickly explained, "Miss Ji, you misunderstood, I'm ......"

"Shut up!"

Before I could finish speaking, Ji Yanran yelled at me angrily, "What's wrong with you? Why did you bring her to your room in the middle of the night? She's already hurt, you, you still haven't let her go, and you're still undressing her? The surname is Li, I usually think you are human-looking and sanctimonious, but I didn't expect you to be this kind of person......"

Her mouth was like a machine gun, and I couldn't say much at all.

"Miss Ji, listen to me......"

Again, I tried to explain.

"Who wants to listen to you?" The more I explained, the more Ji Yanran probably decided that I was weak-hearted, as if she had been greatly humiliated, and she was even more angry at me and shouted: "I'll go tell my brother now, you are a human beast, let him kick you out now!" ”

I shook my head helplessly.

Ji Yanran's anger exceeded my expectations.

She kept asking me to explain, but she didn't give me a chance to speak, how can I explain this?

"Yes, I'll tell my brother ...... now" After shouting a few words angrily, Ji Yanran turned around and walked out angrily.

Seeing Ji Yanran's chest rising and falling violently, and turning around to find the fat man, I didn't bother to say anything, but stood up suddenly, grabbed Ji Yanran's little hand, and then grabbed her slender waist with one hand, and suddenly pulled her closer to me, and the other hand quickly covered her small mouth.

"Hmm......mm" Ji Yanran was startled, first her body stiffened, then she struggled violently, and asked me vaguely, "You, what are you going to do?" ”

She was right next to me.

When she struggles violently, she will inevitably bump into me.

I began to have irrepressible, subtle changes.

"Miss Ji, if you continue to move like this, I can't guarantee what will happen to me next. So, you'd better be honest and listen to me explain to you what's going on. After covering Ji Yanran's mouth, I approached Ji Yanran's ear and said in a low voice: "Xiao He was possessed by the mirror demon, and he was about to attack me just now, but when I beat the mirror demon away, I accidentally injured Xiao He." When you came in, I was about to help Xiao He recover the soul that had been impacted...... Miss Ji, have I explained it clearly now? ”

Just as I approached Ji Yanran, she seemed to feel the change in me, her body suddenly stiffened, and her little face was quickly dyed with two lumps of redness.

"Mmmm......mmmm

Ji Yanran was stunned, then stiffened and nodded, and said vaguely: "Qing, it's clear......"

Again, I confirmed, "You have to make sure you don't yell anymore." ”

"Okay."

Ji Yanran agreed vaguely again.

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

……

Ji Yanran nodded again, and her eyes didn't dare to look at me.

After making sure that Ji Yanran had indeed listened to my explanation, I tried to slowly let go of the hand covering Ji Yanran's small mouth, and then I saw that Ji Yanran's little face was extremely crimson, but there was a crystal in her eyes, as if she was scared to cry by what I had just done.

I felt a pang of guilt.

Just now, I was just thinking about trying to explain to her, and the action was indeed too rude.

"Miss Ji, just now...... Offended, sorry! Seeing the sparkle in Ji Yanran's eyes, I didn't know how to coax her, so I could only apologize to her dryly.

"You ......"

Ji Yanran glanced at me with a crimson face, shyness and timidity, then quickly turned her head and scolded me in a low voice, "Stinky rascal!" ”

I felt even more embarrassed.

The change just now was obviously discovered by Ji Yanran.

Because of the contact just now, the atmosphere between me and Ji Yanran was a lot more awkward all of a sudden, and the two of them didn't speak for a long time.

The atmosphere was dreary and oppressive.

I don't know how to defuse this awkward atmosphere.

"You just said that the mirror demon possessed Xiao He in the middle of the night?" A few minutes later, Ji Yanran squatted down and carefully observed Xiao He on the ground for a moment, and after a moment, she took the initiative to break the silence between us, "Then, Xiao He attacked you?" ”

"Yes."

I nodded.

Ji Yanran's face became solemn little by little, and she asked me nervously, "Master Li, do you know the purpose of the mirror demon's possession of Xiao He to attack you?" Why is it doing this? ”

"Look for the demon bone we found in Madame Ji's room." I pretended to be relaxed and said, "The demon bone is the key to getting rid of the mirror demon, and it naturally won't sit still." What's more, this demon bone is closely related to the mirror demon, and it is naturally easy to find me. However, the mirror demon did not succeed, and the demon bones are still in my hands...... By the way, Miss Ji, what are you doing when you come to me in the middle of the night, is there anything important? ”

Now, Ji Yanran has believed me for eight or nine points.

"I came to you to tell you about the world slave order." Ji Yanran's attention finally shifted to Xiao He, and she explained with a solemn face: "In the past two days, I have been trying to find a way to lead my grandmother to my father's study, until my grandmother found out about the slave order. ”

"What was the reaction of the old lady Ji after seeing the slave order?" I asked curiously.

Things were going so well that I was a little uneasy.

"At first, my grandmother was surprised and delighted when she saw the slave order." Ji Yanran thought about Mrs. Ji's reaction, and frowned: "But after Grandma picked up the slave order and looked at it for a while, she suddenly let out a low "huh", as if she had found something. ”

I pressed after him, "And then?" What did Mrs. Ji say? ”

Ji Yanran shook her head, "After that, grandma didn't say anything, praised me a few words, and put up the slave order solemnly, and then went back." ”

I suddenly remembered the scene when Mr. Ji appeared in my room that night.

After Mr. Ji appeared, both the slave order and the jade pendant on my body have changed, so Mrs. Ji shouldn't have discovered the change in the slave order, right?

After all, she is a person who keeps the slave order, and she will definitely see the slave order before, and it is not unusual to find out about the changes in the slave order.

"Didn't say anything?"

I asked, confused.

Ji Yanran nodded, "Yes!" Grandma didn't say anything. ”

Could it be that Mrs. Ji has never seen the slave order, and she doesn't know that the slave order has changed? Otherwise, how could she not say a word?

"Miss Ji, think about it now, what kind of reaction and expression did Old Lady Ji have after seeing the slave order." In order to determine whether Mrs. Ji had discovered the change in the slave order, I asked Ji Yanran again about Mrs. Ji's reaction.

Ji Yanran thought about it for a while, frowned, and said, "At first, I was surprised and happy when I saw the slave order, but after being surprised, my expression changed to shock and ...... Awe. Like, as if grandma saw something so awe-inspiring. ”

An expression of awe?

Why is Old Lady Ji in awe?

When she saw the slave order, I can understand Mrs. Ji's reaction, originally I thought she would be very angry when she found out about the change in the slave order, but I didn't expect Ji Yanran to say that she was in awe.

Don't......

"By the way, I have one more thing to tell you."

Seeing that I had been pondering for a long time and had not spoken, Ji Yanran said to me anxiously as if she had suddenly remembered something.

I looked up at her, "Miss Ji, what else is wrong with you?" ”

"Listen to grandma, tonight or tomorrow night, she will find a way to invite the lord of the world to come out." Ji Yanran swallowed a mouthful of saliva, her expression was obviously a little nervous, "I always feel that this matter is a bit mysterious, so I came to discuss with you what to do next." ”

My heart moved.

Old lady Ji is going to invite the lord of the world to come out?

And you have to ask the Lord of the World to come out tonight or tomorrow night?

It's just that what method will Mrs. Ji use to invite the lord of the world to come out, or to confirm who the lord of the world is?

"Miss Ji, did you ask Old Lady Ji what method she would use to invite the Lord of the World to come out?" I asked Ji Yanran curiously.

Ji Yanran shook her head and nodded again, "I asked, but grandma said that I am a child and I don't need to know this." I was afraid that asking too many questions would arouse my grandmother's suspicions, so I didn't dare to ask any more, so I had to sneak out by the way. ”

Well.

I nodded.

Ji Yanran has now participated in the matter of concealing that Mrs. Ji's slave order was taken by Mrs. Ji, so it is not easy to expose too much.

Otherwise, if Mrs. Ji is suspicious, it will be even more extraneous.

"How is Xiao He?" After being silent for a moment, Ji Yanran looked down at Xiao He who was lying on the ground, and asked nervously, "She won't have an accident, right?" ”

Tuk Tuk ......

As soon as Ji Yanran's words fell, there was a sudden knock at the door.

Ji Yanran and I looked at each other, and then turned our heads to look at the door, and a thought came to mind at the same time: It's so late, who is knocking outside?

Lamp pen
