When Ji Yunshu became conscious and woke up—
It was always pitch black.
It turned out that someone had blindfolded her.
She wanted to move, but her body was tied to a chair, unable to move, even her mouth was stuffed with a cloth ball, unable to speak.
Only the sound of wind, trees, and the faint sound of water could be heard.
Where are you
She struggled hard, her wrists getting tighter and tighter.
The rope seemed to be stuck in her flesh.
suddenly-
"It's a dead knot. The more you struggle, the tighter it becomes."
a female voice.
It came from the opposite direction less than three meters away.
Ji Yun couldn't see who the person in front of him was, but the female voice always felt a little familiar.
"Uuuuuuu..."
"Mr. Ji, no... I should call you Master Ji. I didn't expect that we would meet in this way." The woman said as she walked towards her.
After the woman approached, a faint scent rushed into her nose. It was the smell of jasmine and milk, which she had smelled in Jiao Shiniang's house and when she left the Longfu Inn.
So... the woman in front of me is the murderer behind a series of murders
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..." She couldn't make a sound. The woman seemed to understand her meaning: "This fragrance is familiar to Mr. Ji, right? It is the fragrance that Jiao Shiniang brought into the capital, and the fragrance you smelled when you came out of the Longfu Inn, because at that time... I was there Looking at you in the crowd, in fact, since I entered Beijing, I have been constantly giving you hints, telling you the time, place and method of my killing, and even telling you about my identity through masks and knots. Smart, but even if you get so many clues, you still can't catch me, but instead become the target I want to hunt now, Lord Ji, Ji
Sir, so are you. "
Finished!
The woman tore off the piece of cloth that had been stuffed into Ji Yunshu's mouth, and at the same time lifted the black strip of cloth over her eyes. Even though it was night, the weak light still made her instinctively close her eyes a few times before she got used to it. Her vision became clearer and clearer. Only then did she realize that she was tied to a chair, with a large stone tied under her feet, and she was standing in a quilt. In a pavilion surrounded by lake water, surrounded by a jungle of tall trees,
The wind blew the big tree and swish, revealing a bit of a strange feeling, and four lanterns were hung on the corners of the pavilion, and the meager light clearly reflected on the face of the woman standing in front of him.
It was a beautiful face, with delicate facial features and snow-white complexion.
she…
"Hibiscus?"
impossible!
Isn't she already dead
Ji Yunshu was shocked.
However, Mujin laughed because of her shocked expression, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "I can't believe... Am I still alive?"
"Aren't you already dead?"
"Yes! I'm already dead, but don't forget, since I can use the disguise technique to disguise myself as Jiao Shiniang and enter the capital, I also have the ability to let someone... die instead of me!"
"Why?" Ji Yunshu stared at her in shock and confusion, unable to sort out the lines!
Mujin's gloomy eyes revealed murderous intent: "Why? Why do you say?"
"..." "Don't you like telling stories very much? Then I'll tell you one today too." Mu Jin moved around behind Ji Yunshu, and her long, slender fingers picked up her long hair, while wrapping it around her fingers. He continued, saying, "Twenty-one years ago, a newborn baby was abandoned in the snow. The cold was so cold that the baby's body was purple. She kept crying, her throat was hoarse, and she was almost silent. Hearing the sound, the surrounding hungry wolves opened their bloody mouths and rushed towards them, revealing their bloodthirsty fangs. At this time, a sharp arrow came and shot all the hungry wolves to death.
Zi was saved, but the person who saved her couldn't take her with him, so he had to put her in a small farmhouse in Pingfu County. After speaking, Mu Jin suddenly grabbed Ji Yunshu's shoulder with her hand, leaned down, put her lips close to her ear, and continued, "Girls can be both literary and martial, they are called talented women, but when one day she finds out that she After the benefactor's family died in the sea of fire, it was almost better to die, but God still took pity on her.
A year ago, the benefactor who escaped from the fire found her. In order to repay her kindness, she would do anything at all, but in the end... the benefactor died, and she swore to take revenge! "
Speaking of this, Mujin choked a little, but the killing intent in his eyes was even stronger.
She sneered: "How is it? Is my story touching?"
The hands that grabbed Ji Yunshu's shoulders were also extremely hard, as if they were about to pull out her shoulder bones.
Ji Yunshu endured the pain, and frowned, "If you wanted to take revenge, why did you kill Jiao Shiniang and Xing Xiyang?"
"They died for you."
"… "
"I just want to see how smart that Master Ji who is praised by everyone is?"
"Those people are innocent."
"Then the prince deserves to die?" Mu Jin grabbed Ji Yunshu's hair and yanked it down.
Ji Yunshu was forced to tilt his head back, and there was a burst of pain on his scalp. "It was the dog emperor who killed the seventy-odd members of Yuguo Gong's family. The damned person is the dog emperor." Mujin loosened her hair and walked in front of her, immediately reaching out and pinching Ji Yunshu's chin, as if to As if pinching it off, he opened his huge pupils and said, "Ji Yunshu, all kinds of things.
Everything started here. If you hadn't opened the coffin, everything arranged by the Duke would not have changed. It's you, it's you, and it's all because of you. "
That suave woman, who was called "talented woman" by the people of Appease County, was crazy at the moment.
Ji Yunshu met her ruthless gaze: "Yu Guogong failed to rebel back then. After fifteen years, he rebelled again in Jishan. All the crimes he committed were also deserved, and he had more than one life in his hands."
"To shut up!"
"Snapped!"
Mujin slapped Ji Yunshu's face.
How ruthless, how ruthless!
This slap almost stunned Ji Yunshu, she tilted her head, her left ear and head buzzed, as if all consciousness was lost.
Mujin pinched her cheeks, forcing her to look at herself, and said fiercely: "You killed the prince, and you killed him. Today, I want you to pay for it."
"Take it... take it away."
"Humph!" Mujin dragged the chair and dragged her with the chair to the edge of the unfenced pavilion, revealing an extremely ferocious face: "Ji Yunshu, do you remember that tune? Buried in the middle, the third watch... Still wandering in the water, that last sentence... I prepared it for you."
Sure enough - Zhao Zhiwen who died in the pond was not killed by Mujin!
