Allure Ugly Concubine

Chapter 49 The Strange Man in Black

Lin Zijiang turned around, only to see a tall masked man standing behind him.

Lin Zijiang stared into the man's eyes, and was a little taken aback.Because that man has a pair of phoenix eyes that are more beautiful than women.The most beautiful woman Lin Zijiang has ever seen since coming here is Xue Yuliu. Although she has not seen the whole picture of this man, she has a premonition that if the person in front of her is dressed as a woman, she may be even more beautiful than Xue Yuliu .

And although the man was wearing the usual black night gown, he embroidered a blue chrysanthemum on his chest as a decoration.

So Lin Zijiang guessed in his heart: This man can't be...comrade, right?And, still subject to...?
Seeing Lin Zijiang staring at him intently, the man blinked immediately, and said a little playfully, "What? Are you fascinated by me? Do you want me to stay with you tonight?"

While talking, the man sized up Lin Zijiang's figure with slightly raised phoenix eyes.

What Lin Zijiang hated the most was such frivolous and unreasonable people, but because of the knife in his hand, he didn't dare to get angry, so he gave him a sideways look, and turned slightly to the side.

Then the man went straight to the table and sat down, and ordered Lin Zijiang with a master's attitude: "Come and sit down."

Although this man looked frivolous on the surface, Lin Zijiang always felt that he was a little unfathomable, so he could only sit beside him obediently, planning to take a step forward.

As soon as he sat down, Lin Zijiang heard a meow, and then a white shadow jumped up from under the table and jumped onto the lap of the man in black.

"Xiaobai!" Lin Zijiang was worried about Xiaobai's safety, so he accidentally exclaimed.

But what followed was an unbelievable scene. The man in black didn't show the slightest annoyance when he saw Xiaobai jumping on his lap. stroking, lying obediently on his lap.

Seeing this scene, Lin Zijiang judged in his heart that this person must not be here for the first time, that's why he is so familiar with everything here and Xiaobai.Then when he came here before, he should be looking for Mrs. Qingxuan who lived here before. Could it be that he is also a member of the emperor?

Lin Zijiang was thinking about it in his head, but the man's voice came from next to his ear: "Did you name this cat Xiaobai?"

Lin Zijiang didn't expect that he would actually ask this question when he opened his mouth, and he said "ah" a little slowly.

But after a pause, she replied, "Yes."

"It's really ugly and vulgar. You actually named it according to the color." The man gave Lin Zijiang a contemptuous look.

"..." Lin Zijiang opened his mouth speechlessly, but shouted in his heart: Did you come here in the middle of the night just to say that my name is ugly?Besides, why is such a cute name 'Xiaobai' so ugly?Where does it sound bad? ? !

Immediately, the man put Xiao Bai down, and finally got to the point: "When did you live here?"

"More than a month ago." Lin Zijiang replied truthfully.

"Then have you seen any strange things here?" The man continued to ask.

Hearing this, Lin Zijiang thought to himself, could this person come to find Mrs. Qingxuan's relics that he dug up that day?If he told him, when he opened the box, he would find that those letters had already been read, and he might not let himself go.Moreover, the letter contained the secret of Chu Yue's poisoning, if outsiders had to go, it might be detrimental to Chu Yue.Although she didn't like Chu Yue, she also didn't like the man in front of her and the emperor behind him even more.

So Lin Zijiang decided not to tell the truth to this person, so he deliberately said with puzzled eyes: "What... Strange thing? I haven't seen it before."

Hearing this, the man narrowed his eyes slightly, played with the dagger in his hand, and said in a threatening tone: "Think about it again, have you seen it?"

Lin Zijiang saw that the person in front of him seemed a little difficult to fool, so he deliberately changed the subject and said, "Wait... wait a minute, I seem to remember?"

"Oh... where?"

Lin Zijiang then pointed to the guitar on the table and said, "That's it, strange thing?"

The man glanced at the guitar on the side with a strange look, disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he continued to say to Lin Zijiang in a threatening voice: "You still have one last chance."

"You...you asked me suddenly, I can't think of anything else for a while, look at this instrument, it looks really strange."

As Lin Zijiang said, he plucked the guitar strings with his left hand, deliberately making it make a pleasant sound, while his right hand was already secretly flicking the switch of the 'Broken Blade', ready to numb the person in front of him first.

But that person's speed was much faster than Lin Zijiang's.He had already noticed something was wrong, and immediately took out Lin Zijiang's right hand hidden under the table, revealing the 'Broken Blade' in her hand.

"What is this?" The man asked, holding Lin Zijiang's right hand.

"It's just a bracelet for decoration," Lin Zijiang said.

But the man seemed to have seen some clues, and said: "It seems that I underestimated you. You can detect my existence as soon as you enter the door. You must not be an ordinary maid. Tell me... who are you?"

"I... I'm really just a servant girl in the palace, but I have better ears and hearing."

Then, the man let go of Lin Zijiang's hand, and said in a somewhat sinister voice, "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me... Anyway, I'm not interested in knowing the identity of the dead person."

Sensing the murderous aura from the man, Lin Zijiang immediately raised his vigilance.

Sure enough, in an instant, the man stabbed at her with the dagger in his hand, Lin Zijiang stepped back quickly, and wrapped the iron chain in the broken blade around the man's right hand.

Looking at the iron chain wrapped around his hand, the man had a hint of surprise in his eyes. He seemed a little unable to believe that this small iron ring was actually a weapon used to defeat the enemy.

But he quickly reacted, and stretched out his left hand to strike at Lin Zijiang.Lin Zijiang reacted nimbly, and finally dodged his palm.

But the man's palm finally hit the dowry wooden box on the dressing table, and the whole box suddenly became shattered, and the jade wares inside were scattered all over the floor.

And at the same time, there was another jade pendant that fell out along with those pearls and jades, which was the wolf-shaped jade pendant that Lin Zijiang took out from Mrs. Qingxuan's relics.

Seeing this, the man stopped, picked up the jade pendant on the ground, and turned to Lin Zijiang and asked, "Didn't you say you haven't seen it before? Where did it come from?"

Lin Zijiang saw that he was revealing, but he said calmly: "Yes, I did see the relics left by Mrs. Qingxuan, but now I have burned those things. If you kill me now, you will never know It's a secret... I can tell you something first, it's about King Yue's weakness."

Lin Zijiang deliberately emphasized his tone, just to remind him of his own importance.Now she is the only one who knows the weakness of King Yue.For those who want to deal with Chu Yue, her role can be imagined.

Hearing this, the man snorted softly and said, "Do you think I won't kill you by saying that? What I hate the most is being threatened."

As soon as the man finished speaking, he slapped Lin Zijiang again.But this time, Lin Zijiang did not dodge.

She knew that if this person wanted to kill her, she would definitely not be able to avoid it, so she might as well take a gamble.On the contrary, it is more hopeful to save life.

In the end, the man's palm didn't hit Lin Zijiang.Because when approaching Lin Zijiang, the wind of palm lifted her veil.

After seeing the bloodstains on the lower half of Lin Zijiang's face, the man showed a trace of surprise in his eyes, and then withdrew his hand.

"For the sake of your courage, I will let you go today." The man said while arranging his clothes that were a little wrinkled from the fight just now.

Hearing this, Lin Zijiang breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, it seemed that she had won the bet.

Then, the man handed the wolf-shaped jade pendant to Lin Zijiang, and said, "You keep this jade pendant, if you need anything in the future... you can come to me with it."

"Oh, no need." Lin Zijiang quickly refused, she didn't want to get into trouble with this again, and she didn't want to see this person again.

But the man seemed to be very insistent, and he said with something in his words: "You should take it, it will definitely be used in the future."

After all, he looked at Lin Zijiang's face meaningfully.

Although Lin Zijiang didn't understand what he said, he still reached out to accept the jade pendant he handed over.

However, when she withdrew her right hand holding the jade pendant, the man suddenly grabbed her wrist.

The man quickly took off the 'Broken Blade' from her hand, and said, "It's a courtesy, just give this to me."

Before Lin Zijiang could reply, the man immediately put the 'Broken Blade' on his hand.Moreover, he looked at the 'Broken Blade' in his hand with admiration, and nodded with satisfaction.

Lin Zijiang looked at this scene and could only nod with tears in her eyes. Although she was very reluctant and reluctant, who made her unable to beat this man.

Then the man raised his eyes slightly, blinked at Lin Zijiang with charming eyes, and said, "There will be a time later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared before Lin Zijiang's eyes.

It took Lin Zijiang a while to react, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't help admiring: This person's lightness kung fu is so powerful.
