across mountains and seas

"grumble--"

A black figure dodged from the side of the sword, hissing in shock.With the light of the sword against the light and shadow of the lamp, a furry figure could be vaguely seen flashing past.

"Liu Xi!" Jing Lan was startled when Liu Xi's figure passed by, chasing after the fleeing figure, "Dangerous!"

The scabbard fell to the ground.

Hearing a "chuckle", Liu Xi's frightened moon suddenly pierced into the arm of the little furry beast.

After standing still, Liu Xi moved the lamp closer to the little beast that was constantly struggling and roaring under the knife—the little beast looked like an ape, its fur was gray all over, and the bloody sea fish it was holding fell to the side, wagging its tail and thumping continuously .

Take a closer look at the ape's neck, and there is a black iron box the size of a palm.

The ape couldn't help hissing miserably because of the pain, Liu Xi couldn't hear it, and pulled Jingyue away from the ape's arm.

The ape rubbed its body and jumped up, thinking it would attack Liuxi, but it grinned and covered its injured arm, panting while staring at Liuxi, its eyes gradually softened.

Liu Xi didn't understand what the ape was looking at?

Jing Lan took the lamp from Liu Xi's hand, wanting to take a closer look at what the ape looked like.

For some reason, the ape saw Jing Lan's face, bared its teeth suddenly, and rushed towards Jing Lan like it was crazy.

Liu Xi took advantage of the situation to protect Jing Lan behind her, and used the back of her knife to push back the attack of the ape, "It doesn't seem to like you very much, so hide behind me."

Jing Lan couldn't figure it out, how could even monkeys be bewitched by this woman Liu Xi?

The ape wandered around in place, tilted his head to look at Liuxi, and then bared his teeth at Jing Lan, but he didn't intend to bite any more.

Liu Xi put away Jingyue, suddenly squatted down facing it, stretched out her hand, "Come here."

The ape's movements seemed to freeze for a moment, it stared blankly at Liu Xi, not daring to move forward.

"Alan, back off." Liu Xi hurriedly ordered to Jing Lan with a side face.

Jing Lan endured the word "be careful" and silently took three steps back.

Seeing Jing Lan take three steps back, the ape walked three steps forward, tremblingly stretched out its claws to hold Liu Xi's finger, its mouth was trembling.

The ape is most similar to a human being, but at this moment tears are shining, as if crying.

"You...but you know me?" Liu Xi asked it tentatively, seeing that the ape has a light body and moves and dodges just now in a very organized way, unlike ordinary wild apes, it seems that someone has taught it something?

The ape sniffed, then moved forward again, tilted his head and put it on Liu Xi's palm, rubbing it lightly.

Maybe it's lived a little longer, the skin on this ape's face is as hard as a board, very rough.

Liu Xi put down Jingyue, caressed the ape's face lightly, only felt that the tentacles were already moist.

"Ji..." The ape rubbed against it a few more times, then suddenly broke away from Liu Xi's hand, crawled up to the bone, and touched the head of the bone sadly.

"He is your master?" Liu Xi asked again.

The ape nodded vigorously up and down.

Liu Xi was stunned.

If the bones on the ground are the ancestors of the Liu family and its owner, it must remember the face of the owner.Liu Xi was also from the Liu Clan of Xishan, her face must have a similarity with this master, that's why this ape is so close to her.

In other words, it must be Liu's blood flowing in Liuxi's bones.

Her mother will definitely not have an affair with others, she is Liu Qing's own daughter.

It's just that Liu Xi couldn't be happy at all at this time.

Liu Shi is by nature cold and thin, but she hopes that there is no Liu Shi's blood in her body.

"How...how did he die?"

Liu Xi calmed down, at least this was not the time to think about these things.She had to find out exactly who this bone was from the Liu family.

The ape seemed very sad.

After slowing down for a while, it wobbled to the bottom of the mechanism beast in the candlelight, raised its hand to caress the scales of the mechanism beast, turned its head suddenly, covered its heart, shook its body and fell in front of the bone.

It can't speak, so it can only answer Liu Xi's question in this way.

"Sneak attack?" Jing Lan felt a chill in her heart.

This is under the sea city of the Jing family, and there is no one else who can come here to sneak attack the Liu family except the people of the Jing family.Thinking back to how fierce the ape was to her just now, Jing Lan seemed to have thought of something, and she tentatively took half a step forward.

The ape sensed Jing Lan's approach, and immediately the gray hairs on the back of its neck stood up, and it wrinkled its nose fiercely at Jing Lan.

Jing Lan had no choice but to give up, stood where she was, and asked in a deep voice, "The person who attacked him...does he look like me?"

The ape seemed to be getting more aggressive, wrinkling its nose and screaming at Jing Lan one after another.

Liu Xi leaned forward and stroked the back of the ape's head, "She's not that person, don't be afraid."

The ape was appeased, and lightly rubbed Liu Xi's palm with its pursed lips.

"I'll stop the bleeding for you first, don't move." Liu Xi said lightly. The ape seemed to know that Liu Xi had no malicious intentions, so he really didn't move and let Liu Xi tear off his sleeves, wrapping himself around the skin pierced by Jingyue. arm.

Jing Lan stared blankly at Liu Xi's profile under the dim candlelight, without the slightest hint of arrogance as usual, with a rare gentle smile rippling at the corner of her mouth.She was cold-blooded and cruel in her previous life, but she still has such a side in this life.

Unconsciously, the frost on his face had disappeared, and even the indifference towards Liu Xi in Jing Lan's eyes had faded a lot.

She looked up and down in the dim light, but she didn't find any mechanism that could be touched, and finally her eyes fell on the ape.

Where did it come in so quietly?

Liu Xi bandaged the ape's wound, "What did he call you before?"

"Hehe!" The ape answered quickly.

"Hehe?" Liu Xi followed the ape's voice and called it, only to see the ape shook its head, and then called out "hehe".

Jing Lan thought for a while, then said in a low voice, "Could it be...heihei?"

The ape was stunned for a moment, and looked at Jing Lan motionlessly from the side, his eyes fluctuating fiercely and softly.

"Heihei?" Liu Xi also called out.

The ape obviously liked Liu Xi calling it that way, and it nodded excitedly.The hair of this ape must have been black when he was young, but now it has become gray-white.

While stroking the ape's head, Liu Xi focused his eyes on the black iron box hanging on the ape's neck.

The ape noticed Liu Xi's gaze, it subconsciously covered the black iron box, broke away from Liu Xi's palm, and took a step back.

"Don't be afraid, I won't steal your things." Liu Xi stood up holding Jingyue, looked up and down, "Heihei, where did you come in from?"

Feeling Liuxi's kindness, the ape pointed to the upper right corner, where there was a crack in the stone, just enough for the ape to get out.

But Liu Xi and Jing Lan's body types definitely wouldn't be able to get out.

"Ah Lan, let's look for it again." Liu Xi turned to look at Jing Lan, "If such a big organ beast is built, there must be a way to transport it out."

"What if..." Jing Lan frowned, although she didn't want to admit it, it was already a clear fact, "Is this place already closed?"

The existence of the dust-laden mechanism beast, the dust-laden secret, there is definitely no way out here.

Liu Xi didn't answer Jing Lan immediately, she walked around the stone wall with the knife, and Hei Hei followed her around, and finally returned to the mechanism beast.

"Alan, it seems that tonight you and I have to fulfill the wish of that inner ghost." Liu Xi figured it out, the inner ghost deliberately triggered the mechanism and forced them here for what?

If you want to leave here, you can only rely on the power of this mechanism beast.

The inner ghost wanted the two of them to take this mechanism beast out.

Jing Lan looked at this mechanism beast hesitantly, it was undoubtedly the biggest blemish of the Dongjing family.

The Liu family was used, and the Liu family was attacked again.

The bloodline of the Jing family that Jing Lan has always been proud of looks like a joke now.

Seeing Jing Lan's gloomy face, Liu Xi walked over and patted Jing Lan's shoulder, "Which one of the famous families in the world is really clean? It's not you who did the wrong thing, so don't put these old grievances to shame." Take it to heart."

Jing Lan looked at her blankly, "He is from the Xishan Liu family."

"I used to be from the Liu family of Xishan, but so what? My own family members can kill their own family members, so how can I have the face to blame others?" Liu Xi's tone was extremely light. Mixed feelings.

In her previous life, she was ambitious and confident that she could compete with the Dongjing clan with her military casting skills.But in the end, it was still relying on Wei Jianbai's despicable means to break through Jing's Shixia and break into Haicheng.

It was so disgraceful to win that battle, thinking about it now, it was considered a great shame for her.

In this lifetime, she had no choice but to marry into the Dongjing family, planning step by step, but found that what she destroyed at the beginning was the warmth of the most scarce home in her life.

It would be a lie to say that there is no guilt at all.

The better Aunt Hong and her uncles treat her, the more bitter she will be.

In her previous life, she owed the life of a whole city, how would she pay it back?

Now, Jing's and Liu's have such an old affair, so far as Liu Xi is concerned, it can be regarded as retaliation for retaliation.

Jing Lan thought that Liu Xi would make a fuss over this matter, but she forgave her lightly.She was a little stunned, how could this be the temper that Liu Xi should have?

"Liuxi..." Jing Lan called her softly, with complicated emotions.

Liu Xi looked at her quietly, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, "I hope to hear you call my sister-in-law soon." After finishing speaking, she walked around the organ beast and said, "I am a traitor of the Xishan Liu family. Ah Lan, this After the Mechanism Beast is released, there will be a storm in the world, and when the time comes..." She stopped suddenly, and looked back at her firmly, "You must insist that this Mechanism Beast was created by you and me. Be a traitor to the end, remember?"

The Dongjing family has a reputation for being indifferent to fame and fortune, and when this mechanism beast suddenly appeared, people in the Jianghu will definitely think about Jing's intentions.Any martial arts cheat book can cause a bloodbath in the world, not to mention the sudden appearance of such an ingenious mechanism beast in this troubled world?

Some people will covet the organ beast, and some people will be jealous of the Jing family, these are not what Liu Xi is worried about.

There is no real paradise in troubled times, and it is impossible for the Dongjing family to escape from the world for a lifetime.

The inner ghost forced them here not only to drag the Dongjing family into troubled times, but also to reveal the old affair between the Jing family and the Liu family and make the Dongjing family a target of public criticism.

People are sinister.

When you are proud, you may not really praise you, but once you lose your reputation, it is not just one or two strangers who miss you.

With Dongjing's current strength, it's not easy to deal with Liu Su, and with the addition of a few Jianghu sects who fish in troubled waters, the Jing's is a dead end.

Some old things must be brought to light, and the truth of the past must be restored.But the truth must be completely sealed, and it will only be a bigger disaster if it is pursued to the end.

Even if the black hand behind the scenes still has any evidence and insists on spreading the matter, Liu Xi will have to play a game with him, insisting that she created such a mechanism beast after she married into the Dongjing family.

A traitor of the Xishanliu Clan - she can only bear this stigma, this is the only way to break the situation.

The author has something to say: This old matter is not over yet, and the next chapter will reveal the whole picture.

I didn't write a horror story~ Don't be afraid~ It's just the blood of a black fish, which the ape is about to eat.
