Chapter 112: Demon Trial Elder

Views:

Seeing that Jiang Yexue was safe, Mo Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but then frowned again: "You still ask me. What happened to you?"

Jiang Yexue smiled and said, "What can I do?"

"… "

The door of the house was not closed, the ground was in a mess, no matter how it looked, it didn't look like it was all right.

Jiang Yexue saw what he meant after his silence, and explained with a smile, "Oh, the house is messed up because something went wrong with my new puppet. It made a mess in the house and smashed a lot of ornaments." He glanced at Glancing at the little pottery figurine with half of its head missing from the room, "Look, this one was just broken."

"...So it is." Mo Xi coughed lightly, "Sorry, I thought it was Mr. Murong..."

Jiang Yexue's eyelashes lifted suddenly: "Have you seen Chu Yi?"

"Yeah." Mo Xi said, "On the way I came, I happened to see him walking outside. I thought it was him who came looking for you, and made some unpleasantness with you."

"..." Jiang Yexue covered his mouth with his sleeve, coughed twice, and said with a light smile, "Really?...I haven't seen him."

As he spoke, as if afraid of the cold, he pulled at the loose edge of the bathrobe and draped the snow-white bathrobe upright. Then he stretched his arms, tied up his long hair, fastened it with a sapphire hair buckle, and gathered it into a loose ponytail.

Jiang Yexue was originally born with infinite elegance, her eyebrows and eyes were as soft as catkins floating on the water in spring, and her skin was as white as the fresh snow on the river in winter night. At this time, when she was bathing, she was like a hot spring soaked in hot spring water. Meiyu can easily ease all doubts and anxieties by him.

"There are a lot of refining books in the academy, my uncle should have come here to borrow books, not to see me." He paused, then asked with a smile, "Also, it's so late, I didn't expect it. There will be guests coming, and the house is so messed up that I didn’t clean it up, but I went to take a bath first, which made Xi and Jun laugh.”

Mo Xi said, "I'm sorry. It was me who was bothering me."

"You and I are brothers who have passed away. If you have any trouble, don't bother." Jiang Yexue looked at him back and forth, and suddenly said, "Are you here tonight for Brother Gu?"

"… how do you know."

Jiang Yexue took his eyes away from Mo Xi's hairband, and his long and slender fingers overlapped each other on his knees. He didn't try to point out the mistakes of the two's hairbands, but lowered his eyelashes and said with a warm smile, "Yes. To make you so anxious, in addition to military affairs, there is only your good brother."

Mo Xi was silent for a moment, raised his hand and made a sound barrier, so that the conversation between the two of them could not be heard by the third person. Then he looked straight at Jiang Yexue with a serious expression.

"I brought something." After a pause, he asked again, "Do you remember what I told you on Bat Island, that I found something not quite right in the time mirror?"

"Remember."

"I found a clue, which is related to the case of Gu Mang's treason eight years ago."

"Really?" Jiang Yexue asked, "What is it?"

Mo Xi stepped forward, put the Qiankun bag with black background and gold thread on the table beside Jiang Yexue, and said, "Jade slip."

Jiang Yexue was originally calm, but when he heard this, his eyes widened, and the blood on his face suddenly faded. He almost couldn't believe it: "You... Did you steal the Shi Jade Slip?"

Mo Xi didn't say a word to himself about "stealing the jade slip", he pursed his lips, lowered his head and pulled the ribbon of the Qiankun bag away, and poured out some fragments on the table. Zai Shi Yujian glowed faintly, and scattered in front of Jiang Yexue.

"The jade slip was destroyed." Mo Xi said concisely, "It means that someone really wants to erase what happened in Chonghua back then."

Jiang Yexue was stunned for a while, then leaned back on the wheelchair and muttered, "... Mo Xi, you're crazy..."

-

At the same time, Xihe House.

Under the twinkling plum blossom copper lamp, Li Wei's shrewd face was glistening with oil. He smiled apologetically, just to persuade the wave of visitors who were in the hall of Xihe Mansion.

These people wore purple bottom gold-trimmed robes, embroidered with totems of birds, and the man at the head was in his early thirties, with a stern look. Going up is extraordinarily inhumane, exuding a kind of aura that strangers should not approach.

He is the elder of the Sishu Taida, Zhou He.

Everyone in Chonghua knows that Zhou He is a bit perverted. He is very interested in the techniques of various countries. He is willing to study whether it is right or wrong, or black magic, and the method of research is also indifferent. Mind you, he's done it all. The reason why he did not become one of the three poisons of Chonghua's greed, hatred, ignorance, and ignorance was all because he had a Murong Chuyi who did not recognize his six relatives in front of him.

It means that although Zhou He is ruthless, at least he still acts according to the rules. The head that your Majesty won't let go, he can still reluctantly hold back. So at this moment, the surnamed Zhou came to Xihe Mansion, and things might not end so easily.

Li Wei took the tea tray prepared by the maid, nodded and sent it to Elder Zhou's desk with a smile: "Elder, drink tea and eat some fruit snacks."

Zhou He didn't say a word, his fingers subconsciously caressed a black dagger on his waist.

Li Wei lowered his eyes and glanced, his heart pounding. Don't look at this dagger as ugly as a flaming tongs, but anyone who knows the goods knows that this is the most beloved treasure of Elder Zhou of the Jujutai - the magical "Falcon" who has picked the brains of countless people and opened the hearts of countless people.

How many spells Chonghua has, it is by relying on this "falcon" that Zhou He grabbed it.

Some people say that the Zhou family is a vulture, exploring the secrets of magic from the dead pile, but Zhou He just sneered at this, saying that there is no need to be dead, and many spells must be discovered while the prisoner is alive. Do you believe me

Purple bottom and golden border, bird totem.

The Zhou family is not only a carrion-eating vulture, but also a falcon of Chonghua. With a sharp eye, he pecks the mystery of the enemy's spells out of the blood and presents it to the king.

Li Wei said: "Elder Zhou, this tea is made from the rain and dew from the Cuilin Mountain..."

Zhou He interrupted the conversation impatiently: "When will Xihe-Jun be back?"

"... Just wait, Xiao Xiao has already sent someone to summon the Lord, and soon-"

Zhou He took out a delicate water dripper from his arms and slapped it on the table. He rolled his eyelids and said, "You said something similar one scale ago. I, Zhou, are the most time-sensitive in what I do. I'm sure. Xi and Jun won't be back within an hour."

"This… "

"Don't do it here and there. The Black Demon Gu worms on the Sijutai were prepared yesterday, just waiting for the trial body to go back to test with me. Now that it's done, the trial body is back, but I can't take people away directly. , I have to wait for you Xihejun to come back."

He narrowed his eyes: "Wait, just wait, someone from Zhou is looking at Xihe's high status, and I will buy him a face. But I can only consume one hour at most - listen to Steward Li, Gu Mang It was the trial body that Your Majesty personally promised me. When Xihe-Jun took him back to the mansion, it was only temporarily taken in. Gu Mang was a traitor after all, and was appointed by His Majesty, so he was the most suitable black devil trial object. ... I've searched for the Black Demon Gu worms for so long, and I finally managed to collect all of them." Zhou He pulled Li Wei's shirt, full of coercion, "I don't have the patience to wait any longer."

Li Wei was suddenly pushed.

Zhou He raised Erlang's legs and said coldly, "Do you understand?"

"Yes, yes." Li Wei swallowed, glanced at the scale of the drip, and said in a low voice, "I understand..."

shit!

Everyone knows that Gu Mang is going to be used by Chonghua for the black devil trial, but your grandma's leg, did you say it's today? !

You have done all the preparations secretly and without warning, and suddenly you have to come to pick up people. As usual, there is no reason to stop your old man, but you can at least talk when Xi and Jun are in the house. ah

When Xi Hejun is not here, who would dare to hand over Gu Mang!

The only person who was incompatible with the tense atmosphere of the room was Gu Mang, who was sitting in the corner of the hall.

As Zhou He's target, Chonghua's Black Demon Trial Body, he was the old god, and he didn't panic at all. When Zhou He entered the mansion, he had just taken a bath and was about to go to sleep, but he couldn't sleep now, so he sat on the chair in a loose bathrobe, his long jet-black hair fell on his cheeks, he was leaning his face, looking at him. The group of vultures in front of them.

He looks very quiet, and a person who has been tempered should be obedient. It's just that this kind of obedience in the past was real, but now this kind of obedience is fake.

After he came out of the Mirror of Time and Space, although most of his memory had recovered, there were still some very crucial things he couldn't remember. And the lack of these memories is like a flowing poem, missing the most important rhyme, making him unable to understand his current situation.

Gu Mang could remember that he was indeed the subject of the black devil trial by Jun Shangxu, but in fact, according to his memory, he didn't quite understand why things turned into the situation they are today.

But he has a plan in his heart, he knows what he wants to insist on, and he can endure it.

"Come on, go back to the Lord." Li Wei anxiously urged the voice transmission servant in the house.

The little servant was more anxious than him, with beads of sweat on his forehead: "It's been passed seventeen or eighteen, but I can't find any trace of the Lord!"

Li Wei paced back and forth in anger, peeking at Zhou He, who had a sullen face, and Gu Mang, who was indifferent, feeling that no matter which side he offended, he would have enough to drink. He circled around the same place like a spinning top for several times, and suddenly he was so blessed that he stopped.

"Come here! Come over here, I have a solution." Li Wei waved the sound transmission boy. The little servant thought he had a good idea, and immediately opened his eyes wide to wait for the words, but he heard Butler Li mysteriously drop four sonorous characters in his ear, "Tell it again."

"… "

The servant was embarrassed and said, "Butler Li, I just told you about it seventeen or eight times, but..."

"You're really a pig!" Li Wei stretched out his fingers and poked the servant's head wildly, "I didn't say anything about Xi and Jun!"

"Who else can it be passed on?"

"Princess Mengze!" Li Wei was almost convinced by his own wit to throw the blame. If Gu Mang was taken away, no one would be responsible, only Princess Mengze could stand it. Li Wei then urged, "Move the soldiers to the rescue! Quickly transmit the sound to Princess Mengze!"

When the servant heard this, his eyes lit up, wishing he could give Li Wei a thumbs up right away.

Gao, Director Li is really tall! Seeing that Gu Mang was raised by the lord in the mansion, he was like a concubine. Although the lord hated this concubine so much, Xi and everyone in the mansion who were not blind could still see that Mo Xi cared about Gu. confused. Now that Zhou He is going to escort Gu Xiaoyu away, who in the whole government can bear this responsibility

There is only one person, the eldest lady in the main room.

No matter if Mengze has ever been there, she is still the unshakable Mrs. Xi Hejun in the eyes of everyone, and she once had a great favor to Xi and Jun, and she is the only one who can be responsible for the way the "little concubine" is disposed of.

So the two pit bulls of Xihe Mansion seemed to have grabbed the straw to save their lives and began to transmit voice to Princess Mengze happily. Unexpectedly, before the sound transmission spirit butterfly flew out of the eaves, it was hit hard by a black light and fell to the ground.

Zhou He looked calm, raised his eyelids and stared at Li Wei: "Who are you reporting to?"

"Dream, Duke Mengze, Duke..."

Zhou He pointed at him with a falcon and said, "Li Wei, you heard me clearly. Zhou is here to pick up people today. I'm in the ward, not asking for permission. I won't find it for you. There is room for others to intercede."

Li Wei was pointed at by the Shenwu who had taken out countless people's brains, and he was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.

Zhou He turned his eyes away.

The room was silent, and the hourglass scale on Zhou He's hand was moving little by little. In this urgent atmosphere that almost pressed out the internal organs of people, something suddenly made an abnormal sound of "chirp-hoo!".

The sound was actually not too loud, but it was too quiet in the hall, so it seemed extremely harsh. All of a sudden, everyone looked for the sound, only to see that the black dog who was lying at Gu Mang's feet was making the strange noise. .

Fandou is probably as slow as its owner, who sits comfortably, and it is even more exaggerated, snoring and snoring in sleep. Gu Mang found it interesting, a pair of naked and pale feet stepped on its fluffy and soft fur, and the rice pocket was stepped on innocently in his sleep. After playing around, he closed his eyes and fell asleep again. Gu Mang's jade-like toes sank into the depths of his dog's fur, lightly stepped on his stomach, and rubbed his furry ears.

But it didn't take long, Fandou seemed to sense something suddenly, put his ears back, suddenly opened his eyes and stared straight at the hall: "Wu-?"

At this moment, a young servant ran in quickly, but Li Wei was overjoyed that Mo Xi came back, but he could look at the young servant's appearance without any masters, and the little heart that had just loosened was twisted into a mess again. .

"What's wrong?"

"Director Li." The little servant said with a bitter face, "There is another group of people from outside."

"… Who?"

Before the servant could answer, the wave of people rushed into the Xihe Mansion without permission, without rules, and swaggeringly. The dog-legged servant who opened the way shouted in a pompous voice: "Wang Shu Jun is here!"
