The dusk outside the window was getting darker, and the room was getting darker.
Ji Lan seemed not to notice the change of light and dark, and did not ask the maid to light the lamp. She looked straight at the message scroll she bought from Junmanlou, with a worried look on her face.
Timely.
Ji Zhi came over in a panic, his fat body trembling up and down with his anxious steps, and the same solemn look also appeared between his eyebrows.
"Little sister, have you met Brother Lin during this trip?" Ji Zhi anxiously asked Ji Lanxin, pointing to the letter axis in his hand: "Did Brother Lin really die unexpectedly in the Youhe Mountains as rumored?
"
When Ji Lanxin heard this, her gloomy face couldn't help but get a little uglier. Thinking about the last time she saw Lin Liyun, the image of being bullied by a long-tongued old monster appeared in her mind uncontrollably, making her feel sick to her stomach.
I almost felt sick and retched.
"What's wrong?" Ji Zhi stepped forward with concern and asked with a frown: "Why do you look so disgusted when you hear about Brother Lin?"
Ji Lanxin recalled the suspicion that the long-tongued old monster mentioned casually, and combined with her understanding of 'Lin Liyun', she couldn't help but become suspicious of his identity afterwards.
After all, with Lin Liyun's strength, he was not qualified to provoke a soul master of the strength of the long-tongued old monster and still escape unscathed.
When he was about to respond to Ji Zhi, he said that Lin Liyun's identity was fake and he was pretending to be someone else.
Patriarch Ji, together with several elders, catered to a middle-aged man who looked like a stranger, and suddenly rushed towards her room impatiently.
Looking at the unfamiliar middle-aged man wearing the chief prison officer's robe, accompanied by two guards dressed as prison wardens...
Ji Lan vaguely guessed something, and her face became a little more ugly.
"Lan Xin, come here," the head of Ji's family waved outside the house and signaled to Ji Lanxin: "This is Mr. Yang Zun, the Chief Prison Xian. He has something to ask you."
A glimmer of hope flashed in Ji Lan's eyes. Thinking of the despicable things that Yang Su intended to do to her in the mountains, she felt a sense of disgust and resentment towards his master for no reason, but her face did not show any emotion.
He stepped forward and bowed respectfully.
Before Xian Yangzun could ask questions.
Ji Lanxin took the first step and took Patriarch Ji's hand and asked: "Grandpa, what happened to your trip to Tianchu Villa this time? Will the trouble caused by the old monster with the long tongue be implicated in us?"
Thinking about the bet she made with the old monster with a long tongue, when Ji Lanxin asked this question, her nervous heartbeat froze for a moment.
Patriarch Ji glanced at the people around him, then sighed helplessly, and responded: "Grandpa, out of friendship for their acquaintance, went here just to intercede for him, but the trouble he caused is actually
He's too big, and our Ji family can't help him, it's just that he's acting too wickedly and recklessly."
Ding...
When Ji Lanxin heard this, her expression turned extremely ugly. Her heart felt as if it was being pressed down by a boulder, and she felt suffocated.
She never thought that her grandfather, who she had always prided herself on and would never abandon anyone, would actually choose to abandon the long-tongued old monster in such a big matter...
This is simply pushing my granddaughter into the fire pit again.
I thought that if I lost the bet, I would become the plaything of the old man with a long tongue and suffer all the humiliation and toy from him.
Ji Lan suddenly wanted to die.
I was so confused that I couldn't even listen to Xian Yangzun's questions.
It wasn't until Xian Yangzun asked again with an angry look on his face that he realized what he was doing.
"I've seen it," Ji Lanxin timidly replied, "I've seen Yang Su...brother's in the mountains."
Seeing this, Xian Yangzun asked again: "When you saw him, what was his condition? Was he injured?"
Ji Lanxin suddenly understood that Xian Yangzun came here to investigate the cause of the death of his beloved disciple Yang Su.
Thinking of this, Ji Lan almost instinctively wanted to tell him that it was the old monster with the long tongue who killed him.
But then I thought about the terrifying power of the old monster with the long tongue, and the big trouble he had caused now, he was bound to be killed by Tianchu Mountain
The situation that Zhuang and other forces are targeting is not at all inferior to Yang Su's life, and he will not be afraid of the revenge of Xian Yangzun and his like.
If he said it rashly, not only would he not be able to get rid of him, but he would be angered instead.
At that time, I still don’t know how I will change the method to humiliate myself.
Measure it.
Ji Lanxin immediately retracted her idea of speaking out. The outcome of the bet was decided, and it was difficult to deal with the old monster with a long tongue again. So she could only hope that this 'bet' would never be known to the public and would just be hidden in a boudoir bed.
between.
And if you want to do this, you will undoubtedly need to get rid of another insider.
In this way, the filthiness I experienced will not be spread to others!
A flash of ruthlessness flashed in Ji Lan's eyes while she was thinking, and she responded: "I have seen it before. Brother Yang Su saved me. At that time, I met Lin Liyun of the Lin family. When he saw that I was alone, he planned to
He wanted to rape and humiliate me, but fortunately Brother Yang Su showed up in time and helped me drive away the adulterer."
Ji Zhi stayed quietly on one side. When Leng Buding heard this, he immediately shouted dissatisfied: "Don't talk nonsense. I know that you have some conflicts with Brother Lin. Even if you want to take revenge, you shouldn't be indiscriminate in such a big matter."
A false accusation! I know better than you what kind of person Brother Lin is, and he would never do such a dirty thing."
Ji Lanxin sneered: "But what if he is not the Lin Liyun you know!"
"What do you mean?" Ji Zhi was stunned and argued: "Although he has lost a lot of memory in recent days, his temperament will never change.
I can also see the righteousness in his words and deeds, so don't try to smear him."
Ji Lanxin smiled sarcastically and said: "It's useless for you to regard him as a brother. You can't even recognize that he is someone else pretending to be."
Ji Zhi's face suddenly darkened, and he shouted angrily: "Then tell me, who pretended to be him!?"
Ji Lanxin smiled slyly and said four words: "Master Qingshan."
"What?" Ji Zhi was startled, and then thought of Lin Xiaowan's behavior when he exited the Sword Ruins...
I couldn't help feeling panicked.
There was a strange look of worry in Ji's eyebrows, and there was also a sense of unreasonable distress in Ji Lanxin's loving eyes. While sighing, she asked aloud: "Lan Xin, don't talk nonsense.
Do you have any evidence?"
Ji Lan just wanted to name the old monster with the long tongue, but then she thought that if she used this as an excuse, it would be a sure sign that the old monster with the long tongue was also present, and he would inevitably cause trouble.
Then I thought of the commotion Yin Feiqiao made recently.
He immediately changed his mind and replied: "There is no name of Qingshan Sect Master in the Yaoxian Banquet list, but he appeared in the Youhe Mountains and fought a battle with the Young Master of Changshou Valley. It was obvious that he was pretending to be Lin Liyun.
Got in."
"This is the only explanation that makes sense. After all, with Brother Yang Su's strength, few of the disciples who have participated in the Yaoxian Banquet this year are his opponents."
Mr. Ji looked at Ji Lan's concealing attitude and felt even more worried. His voice became hoarse when he explained:
"The Qingshan Sect Master has the right to enter in a dignified way, but he went together in the name of the companion of the daughter of the Chief Prison Master, which is not what you said."
"What?" Ji Lan was startled, as if she had not thought of this, and even wondered if the old weirdo with the long tongue had guessed it wrong? But then she thought it was impossible. How could there be such an outrageous coincidence, and with Lin Liyun's strength
How dare you provoke the old monster with the long tongue? How can you escape from the old monster with the long tongue and die inexplicably in the Youhe Mountains?
It seems that Lin Liyun is Lu Feng pretending to be just as the old weirdo with the long tongue said.
The reason why he has two admission qualifications may be that Lu Feng had prepared a backup plan early in the morning and had planned to take this opportunity to shed his identity as Lin Liyun.
While Ji Lan was thinking about it, everyone felt that they were confusing right and wrong, and they all thought about moving the old monster with the long tongue out. She bluntly said that he was also at the scene later and his identity was verified...
Suddenly, Xian Yangzun turned around and walked away with a gloomy face.
It seems that the answer has been obtained.
This made Ji Lan feel a little confused.
'Do you believe it?'
"With this kind of discernment, can you make a living in the main prison?"
Ji Lan was speechless for a while, but thinking about the development of the situation, she couldn't help but feel a cunning sense of security in her heart. Being targeted by someone like Xian Yangzun, she believed that Lu Fengjuan would not have a chance to survive.
And as long as Lu Feng dies, no one in the world will know that she was bullied by disgusting people like the old monster with the long tongue.
Even if he loses the bet, given the current situation of the long-tongued old monster, it is impossible for him to come looking for him openly all the time.
Even if he comes, according to the restrictions of the gambling agreement, he will never make it public.
It's just a matter of suffering some grievances and humiliations in the boudoir, gritting one's teeth and enduring it, and it's over.
As long as this filth is not known...
Then, she can still live a bright and beautiful life.
…
In fact.
Xian Yangzun was not the mastermind behind the scenes just because he believed Ji Lanxin's words.
Instead, he made this judgment after hearing that Lin Liyun's identity was disguised by Lu Feng, combined with his grievances with Lu Feng in Tianyuan City, and the fact that the latter did have the strength to deal with his beloved disciple.
As for whether the truth is true, for him, it is much more straightforward than continuing a headless investigation.
If we find an opportunity to arrest Lu Feng and question him, we will know whether Yang Su's death is related to him.
Even if not, he wouldn't mind killing him by mistake because of the face he lost during the confrontation in Tianyuan City that day.
Night falls.
Ji Lanxin was alone in the room, staring blankly at the candlelight on the table, feeling uneasy.
Crunch~
There was a slight movement from the open window.
Although the wind was blowing, it made Ji Lan's heart suddenly startled, and she stared out the window with frightened eyes.
She had been frightened countless times, always feeling that the figure of the old man with a long tongue would suddenly break into her boudoir at the next moment, threatening her with a bet, and forcing her to do such disgusting things.
Little did I know.
The figure of the old monster with a long tongue appeared majestically in the courtyard of the old family master Ji.
Hidden under the cover of the formation, the two of them talked and drank, quite happily.
"I have wronged you this time."
Mr. Ji toasted to the long-tongued old monster with some apology. He already knew from the long-tongued old monster that the reason why the latter staged the Yaoxian Banquet and accidentally killed so many elders of Tianchu Villa was all because of Ji Lan's heart.
For the sake of getting ahead.
He also learned from the mouth of the old monster with a long tongue that Yang Su intended to scorn Ji Lan's heart.
The reason why I brought Xian Yangzun here for questioning today was because I had no choice but to accept the order. I also wanted to see Ji Lan's reaction and see if she was as innocent and humiliated as the long-tongued old monster said.
Seeing that Ji Lan was holding back her words, trying to cover up her appearance, and even framed the Qingshan sect leader, he no longer had the slightest doubt about the long-tongued old monster's threat of being humiliated at the hands of Yang Su.
Because of taking care of Ji Lan's face, she couldn't expose this matter directly.
The reason why he threatened to sever the relationship with the old monster with the long tongue was not only to avoid involving the Ji family, but also to better protect him.
This was the advice given by the old monster with a long tongue after he approached him on his own initiative.
Patriarch Ji first learned the truth about the long-tongued old monster killing people in a rage because he was stopped by the elders when he was trying to kill Yang Su for Ji Lanxin.
For this reason, he was still full of resentment and wished he could be there at that time and kill them.
There was even a time when there was some reluctance to accept the long-tongued old monster's strategy of hiding his grievances and allowing him to be wronged, thinking of announcing to the world what was right.
But due to Ji Lanxin's clean reputation and the generous persuasion of the old weirdo with a long tongue, she finally agreed.
The old monster with a long tongue took the wine handed over by Patriarch Ji and drank it with a smile, a cunning and lustful light flashing in his eyes.
"From now on, the old monster will hide behind others, guard the young lady day and night, and silently protect her safety."
When Patriarch Ji saw that the old monster with a long tongue was still willing to protect his granddaughter, he was immediately overjoyed and helped himself to three bowls of wine.
He secretly vowed in his heart that he would never let his granddaughter be bullied again for the rest of his life.
