Chapter 376: A Gift Between the Leaders
Ji Ying's expression was very serious at this time, there was an imperceptible emotion on her white face, as if she was very concerned about the current conversation, she had been standing in the corner just now, and deliberately waited for everyone to leave the room before walking in front of Chen Zhi.
Chen Zhi noticed that Ji Ying was still carrying a cowhide double bag in her hand, which was bulging, and the bag was very heavy, and she knew that there was something heavy at a glance.
Ji Ying first put the bag on Chen Zhi's hospital bed solemnly, then covered the opening of the bag, looked at Chen Zhi's face with both eyes, and stared at it for a while before saying softly:
"Patriarch, when I was waiting for you outside, I saw Ji Yang......"
"What?"
After Chen Zhi heard this, his heart immediately jumped, he didn't expect that at this time, Ji Ying would bring this news.
Ji Yang is actually what Bao Ping is most concerned about now, he has been missing for a long time since he pretended to surrender to the shadows, in fact, they have made preparations to face Ji Yang's death~~~, and for Ji Yang's identity, except for Bao Ping; Except for Chen Zhi and the three people of the Ghost Knife, no one knows!!
"And then ......",
Chen Zhi's face didn't have any waves, and he looked at Ji Ying calmly and asked, "Did he tell you anything?" ”
"Yes......", Ji Ying looked at Chen Zhi and nodded.
"What did he tell you?" , Chen Zhi smiled absently,
"Is he telling you that everything in the organization is a lie, and that Bao Ping and I are both deceitful demon kings, and then let you take refuge in the shadows?"
"No~~~"
Ji Ying stared at Chen Zhi's face, carefully observing Chen Zhi's expression,
"Ji Yang gave me something and passed a message to me, and I can't be sure if this message is true or not, and I can't be sure if it will bring you danger!
So, I want you to tell me in person now, is the defected Ji Yang samurai his own people? ”
"This ......",
Chen Zhi was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to answer.
It's not that he can't lie, in fact, as long as he wants to lie now, no one will be able to debunk him~~~
But now facing Ji Ying's eyes, he hesitated, he felt that lying was the most difficult thing in the world, since the last incident, Chen Zhi hoped that he would never tell a lie to this woman again in this life~~
Ji Ying's eyes were very shining, staring at Chen Zhi like a pitch-black agate, waiting for his answer seriously, Chen Zhi knew that Ji Ying was a very frank person, she had always liked to get straight to the point, and her innate intuition as a martial artist was sharper than anyone else.
Just when Chen Zhi was repeatedly hesitating how to reply to her, Ji Ying suddenly lowered her head:
"The subordinates have trespassed, this is not a question that subordinates should ask, but thanks to the patriarch for not deceiving me, I think ......, I already know the answer......"
After Ji Ying finished speaking, she carefully opened the double cowhide bag, and then took out the contents of it......
It was a very strange wooden box, wrapped in bronze sheets on the outside, and the structure was very fine, and at first glance it looked like a music box made of iron sheets~~~~
Chen Zhi had seen this kind of thing before, and it was in the Jiang Library's "Antiquities Tongjian"~~~
It is recorded in the book that this is a container used to deliver letters and gifts in the gods and nobles in the age of the gods and spirits a long, long time ago~~~, and the basic function is the same as the current express package~~~, but it is much more exquisite.
At that time, the gods liked to give gifts to each other, some gifts were very valuable, and special carrying utensils were needed, this kind of wooden box was like a safe now, after putting valuables inside, the lid was fastened, and only the recipient himself could open it, otherwise others would not be able to pry it open even if they used a knife ~~~, just like the current fingerprint verification.
And on the top of this kind of box, there is a separate mezzanine, and there is a letter in the mezzanine, and before the gods open the gift inside, they will see this letter first~~~, so that when the box arrives in the hands of the recipient, the gift is also there, and the blessing is also available, which is very complete!!
Generally, the letters are written with kind words of blessings, such as congratulating you on your great birthday, or congratulating you on giving birth to a noble son~~
However, it is recorded in ancient books that the description form of this kind of letter is very special, which can make people feel "in person"~~~
Chen Zhi felt very strange when he read this material at the time, how can a letter make people feel "in person", even the current video can't do it~~~
But it is also recorded in the information that this kind of box needs to be formed by some spells, which is very troublesome, if it is not a very expensive gift, this kind of utensil is generally not used, so it was slowly abolished~~, and now none of it has been left in the world, and Chen Zhi is also a hand-drawn drawing seen in the data.
I never thought that this kind of ancient thing would only be used between the gods and the gods, and it would still be reserved in the hands of the dark department~~~
"Is this the only box?"
Chen Zhi stroked the box with his hand, looked up and asked Ji Ying,
"Yes!"
Ji Ying nodded,
"I was standing outside waiting for you, the temperature was very low at that time, there was no movement for hundreds of miles around, there was a dead silence~~~~
But when Ji Yang appeared, I didn't even notice it at all, he appeared like that, like a lifeless shadow, suddenly appeared behind me, at that time, if he wanted to take my head, it was as easy as probing for something~~~
But he didn't do anything to me, he handed me this box, saying that it was a gift from the new god Ruma to our leader~~~
Ruma asked Ji Yang to convey:
The dark department has heard the name of the new leader for a long time, and the new leader can command Xiqi as a mere human being, and he admires it very much, hoping to become a confidant!!
He knew that the leader had something in his heart that he had been thinking about, and he couldn't sleep at night, so he had put it in a box and presented it to the leader as a gift, so that the leader would not have to think about it from now on~~~~
And said that this gift must be opened by the leader himself! ”
"And then ......",
Chen Zhi groped for a black wooden box with his hand, felt the meager and familiar aura on the wooden box, and asked lightly,
"What else did he say?"
"The words just now were conveyed by Ji Yang to the leader, and the following words are the ...... that Ji Yang asked me to convey to you."
When Ji Ying said this, her eyes looked at Chen Zhi tightly, and she said in a very light voice:
"Himeyo Grand Samurai asked me to convey it to you......
This time it was not a good intention, if this secret letter was a letter inviting the leader to meet, it must be a Hongmen feast!!
The shadows are now full-fledged and must not be underestimated!!
No matter how earnest the words in this letter may be, I ask the patriarch to advise the chief not to let the chief meet with the new god, otherwise the leader will be harmed by the Rumma!! ”
