Chapter 313: Stealing Flowers
Suddenly, two sharp swords came out of Jiang Cheng's eyes, and they stabbed heavily in Kong Yi's eyes, Kong Yi only felt that his eyes were like pins, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly closed his eyes and kept his mind.
"This is the second time you've looked at me like this!" Jiang Cheng sighed, as if he knew everything, and continued: "Say, how did you design to kill Long Mo?
As soon as these words came out, Kong Yi's face suddenly turned red, and then immediately returned to normal, although the change was extremely fast, but the weakness of his heart at that moment was all under Jiang Cheng's eyes.
If it weren't for Jiang Cheng's side knock just now, which made Kong Yi panic, I am afraid that the weakness of my heart at that moment will not be revealed.
But at this time, Kong Yi's heart has reached the bottom, and he doesn't even have the confidence to say that he didn't do it, because the panic at that moment just now has revealed the thoughts in his heart.
Jiang Cheng had retracted his gaze at this time, and returned to the appearance of sitting upright at the beginning, as if nothing had happened just now, which made Kong Yi, who did not dare to look directly, even more confused, and had prepared a lot of excuses, but there was no way to say it, his knees were weak for no reason, and he slowly knelt in front of Jiang Cheng.
The hall was silent for a long time, and the two seemed to be competing for endurance to see who could hold on to the end, but one side was sure to win, and the other party was embarrassed.
Kong Yi thought that when he first entered the City of No Return, although he was suffering and fleeing on the surface, Jiang Cheng took good care of him, and step by step mentioned the position of the leader of the Soul Guard, there was really nothing that could make Kong Yi's heart feel estranged.
It's just that Xu Gaofeng was convicted by the clan because he fell in love with a demon beast, if it wasn't for the Taishang Elder who stopped him in time, I am afraid that Xu Gaofeng would have been damaged at this time.
There are great favors on both sides, and all kinds of things in the past can't help but come to mind, and I have just sorted out the words that I was about to answer Jiang Cheng, but I mixed them up again, and I couldn't figure it out.
"Tell me the truth, I may let you and your wife leave the City of No Return, if there is a half-lie with me, then you two will make flower fertilizer in that garden!" Jiang Cheng's face was pale, his lips moved slightly, and a word broke the peace in the hall again.
With a brain teaser, Kong Yi thought back to the loopholes of that day's action, and the only one who could leak the news was that alchemist Yang Lin, and just now Jiang Cheng met with Yang Lin in person.
Now that I think about it, the problem may be Yang Lin's body, but how does Yang Lin know if it was his own doing, or Jiang Cheng guessed something from it.
With a sigh of relief, Kong Yi had already made up his mind in his heart, and said with a long head: "City Lord, Long Mo was indeed killed by me with the Soul Guard, but it was also to protect the City of No Return.
It's just that the Jiaolong clan has been eyeing each other, and sooner or later there will be a battle, so it is better to weaken its strength now, so Yang Lin was used to lure Long Mo out alone and intercept and kill him halfway. I am the sole proprietor of this matter, and I ask the city lord to surrender the crime. ”
After saying a few words, Kong Yi seemed to be relieved, facing Jiang Cheng, his eyes were closed, and his expression showed a hint of absolute expression.
After waiting for a long time, Kong Yi didn't hear Jiang Cheng's sigh or slightly reproachful words in his imagination, and he could only hear his own breathing in the hall, as if his heart was too tight, and the sound of breathing seemed to have become much louder.
The hall fell into silence again, except for Kong Yi's gradually thickening gasps, there was no other sound, could it be that Jiang Cheng left, an inexplicable thought filled his mind.
It's just that Kong Yi knows that this is impossible, and there is only one situation in which Jiang Cheng will wait silently, waiting for the target to throw himself into the net, waiting for Kong Yi to spit out the truth.
I don't know how long it took, Kong Yi only felt that his whole body was soaking wet, and there was a faint feeling of prostration, there had been no such high-intensity pressure for a long time, even when it was a line of life and death, it was a hundred times stronger than this feeling.
"Recently, there is always a demon cultivator in front of the Chaoyin Tower, so you will work hard for a while, don't go back to your mansion, and listen to the rumors by my side at any time!"
Jiang Cheng could hear Kong Yi's words, although there was nothing missing, but there was a hint of uneasiness in his heart, at this critical time when there was no return to the city, he could not make any mistakes inside, and it was a relatively safe way to keep Kong Yi by his side.
Kong Yi understood Jiang Cheng's thoughts, hurriedly knelt down to thank him, and stood behind Jiang Cheng again, not even daring to give birth to his reverie, and waited carefully.
It was late at night, and the moonlight shone on a secluded path among the flowers, and a faint figure sat on a treetop by the roadside, his eyes fixed on the direction of the Chaoyin Tower.
In Yang Lin's mansion, the guards outside were quietly cultivating, but in Yang Lin's bedroom, there was a lone lamp, and two figures were reflected in the shadows.
"I haven't come back for so long, I should have been detained by Jiang Cheng, but I don't know if it's life or death?" Yang Lin held a soul protection flower in his hand, and his lips whispered.
After returning from the Chaoyin Tower, Yang Lin tried to refine some of the essence of the soul protection flower, and found that the medicinal effect was indeed much stronger than holding the flower in his hand.
Especially when the soul protection flower liquid is guided by mana to protect the Yuan Baby, it can hide the cultivation on the body, this discovery makes Yang Lin happy, no wonder he didn't see the cultivation of Mrs. Kong during the day.
Jiang Xian on the side watched Yang Lin fiddling with the blood-red flowers in his hand, only thinking that they were ordinary medicinal herbs, but after waiting with Yang Lin for so long, he couldn't help but ask out loud when he heard this sentence.
"Who is Mrs. Kong, I have lived in this city of no return for a long time, but I have never heard of that Kong Yi and a lady. However, this is a private place in the city of no return, and I don't know how many acolytes are guarding in the shadows, so it is really difficult for outsiders to enter. ”
"You will go to the house of Kong Yi in a while, and then help me pick some of these flowers, do not pick them by hand, just use the jade box to cut off the flower stems and bring them back.
If you find that Kong Yi is back, you will come back directly, if Kong Yi is not there and is discovered by that Mrs. Kong, you can also try the cultivation of Mrs. Kong, presumably not much lower than that Kong Yi.
Be careful, if you show your whereabouts, you first go around the city of no return, get rid of the pursuers, and then come back to look for me. ”
Jiang Xian glanced out the window, a woman's natural fear of darkness made Jiang Xian not want to go out to run errands anymore, just looked at Yang Lin's unshirkable eyes, nodded lightly, took the jade box handed over by Yang Lin, turned around and walked out.
As soon as he walked to the door, he suddenly heard Yang Lin's voice from behind. "Don't fight among those flowers!" Jiang Xian frowned, and said in his heart that Yang Lin was too careful.
In Kong Yi's house, there is also a lonely lamp, just a petite figure under the lamp, holding a flower in his hand and not knowing what to think.
Outside the window, Jiang Xian held the black veil covering his face with his hand, looked at the light shadow in the window, and shook his head, how can this flower have such a charm, it can make people sit in front of the lamp for a long time without feeling bored.
Looking at the figure under the lamp, presumably Kong Yi was not at home, Mrs. Kong was thinking about her husband, sighed, Jiang Xian took out the jade box handed over by Yang Lin, and with the help of the bright moonlight, she found the nursery where the soul protection flower was planted, and picked it with her hands.
As soon as he put away the three soul protection flowers with the jade box, Jiang Xian heard the wind behind him, and knew that he must have been discovered, so the figure rushed forward, flashed a blow from behind, and then turned around.
"Who are you, and why did you come to my courtyard to steal flowers?" the voice was not loud, but there was a hint of anger.
Jiang Xian looked the petite woman in front of her up and down, but she couldn't see the cultivation after looking at it for a long time, but seeing that the spiritual pressure on her body was not strong, she must have used some secret method to hide the cultivation, but at most it was the same as already, so she was a little relieved.
"Put down the soul protection flower in your hand, let you go, don't come back in the future, otherwise, I will definitely leave you here today!" Mrs. Kong saw that Jiang Xian was speechless, and a golden scissor in her hand opened slightly, and a golden light crossed the scissor, reflecting the moonlight, revealing a cold air.
The night breeze blew, and a faint fragrance rushed into Jiang Xian's nose, the smell was several times stronger than the fragrance smelled in Yang Lin's residence, Jiang Xian only felt that a red line appeared at the Lingtai, as if it was weaving a net, pulling horizontally and vertically, as if to block the entrance of the Lingtai.
This flower is strange, Jiang Xian, who originally wanted to have a few tricks with Mrs. Kong, immediately figured out the truth of the last sentence that Yang Lin said before coming.
Slowly putting away the jade box, Jiang Xian looked up at Mingyue and muttered to himself: "I really don't know where Kong Yi is now, but I can rest assured that a delicate woman is at home alone?"
Without waiting for Mrs. Kong to reply, Jiang Xian had already used enough strength, and his body rushed to the outside of the mansion, and his feet kept getting stronger, for fear that the Lingtai would be sealed in the first place, and at that time, it would be difficult to survive.
Yang Lin had already asked the soul guards in the house to say hello, and it was unimpeded all the way, looking at Jiang Xian who was flying in front of her, Mrs. Kong had a hint of bad feeling in her heart.
The layout of this road, Mrs. Kong knew herself, at this time, there was no soul guard to intercept it, presumably someone must have greeted her, or the woman who fled in front was one of the soul guards.
Seeing that Jiang Xian turned around a few times, he had already run into the city of no return, and chased a few alleys before losing his trace, Mrs. Kong couldn't help but stop.
On weekdays, I played with flowers in the house all day long, and I didn't come to the city of return twice, looking at the streets that extend in all directions, so that people feel at a loss. Her brows jumped suddenly, Mrs. Kong secretly said that it was not good, her face tightened, her body flashed sharply, and she returned to the original way.
At some point, several soul guards appeared on the dark path, blocking in the middle of the road, not knowing what they were waiting for, and as soon as Mrs. Kong appeared, she immediately surrounded her.
"Who dares to trespass on the important land of no return!" Mrs. Kong thought about things in her heart, where would she care, and saw that they were just some soul guards in the early stage of the transformation of gods, and at the moment, several light punches were struck, and there was no place to spare.
Several guards were obviously prepared, and when they saw Mrs. Kong rushing hard, they hurriedly dispersed on both sides, four of the soul guards, eight hands shook each other, and two silver fishing nets were suddenly stretched out in front of Mrs. Kong.
