Chapter 788 I’m not

The last sentence he said was full of earnestness: "Don't underestimate her, or she will tear you apart in the end."

"I didn't look down on her, but you looked down on me as always." Huang Jing snorted and left, no longer wasting time talking to those who looked down on her.

Lan Zhijin chased out of the guest room: "Then have dinner before leaving."

Huang Jing didn't even turn his head: "No money."

"I'll treat!"

"I don't want you to treat me."

Lan Zhijin watched helplessly as Huang Jing hopped down the stairs.

Meng Shisan waited for Huang Jing to have dinner together. There was no one else at the table. Huang Jing was curious about where Chang'an was, but she just smiled and didn't answer.

Huang Jing held the bowl, stretched his neck towards Meng Shisan's face, and asked, "Did something happen again?"

Meng Shisan pursed his lips and said, "It's just a small matter. Changan can handle it."

Huang Jing understood that he didn't want to talk to her.

So I stopped asking.

After dinner, Huang Jing told Meng Shisan about what Lan Zhijin had discovered while performing the ritual in Li Heng's private residence. What he said was almost identical to what Tong Yu had reported, except for one thing: "He said that even though he knew that apart from Mr. Jin's body, all the bodies of the other guests had strange features, it would be difficult to find out the reason for the strangeness."

"Not easy?" Tongyu went back home to report first, and Meng Shisan asked Shangchun to prepare double the silver. At this time, she signaled Shangchun beside her to hand the silver to Huang Jing.

Shangchun received the order and placed two silver notes with a face value of one hundred silver in front of Huang Jing.

Huang Jing understood immediately, put away the two hundred taels and accepted them with a smile, and then said: "He knows the rules very well. Since he promised me not to tell anyone about the strangeness of the corpse, he certainly won't tell the second prince's guards. You can rest assured! I will keep the silver for now, and I will go to the inn tomorrow and give him the double reward. I thank you in advance on his behalf."

Meng Shisan heard that the key point of Huang Jing's words was Huang Jing, and thought to himself that the relationship between Huang Jing and Lan Zhijin was indeed extraordinary: "No need to thank him, he helped me, the money is what he deserves, and you helped me, what do you want?"

When they first met, she heard that Huang Jing was short of money, so she thought of giving Huang Jing some silver to send him away. After all, as the eldest daughter of the Meng family, she had a lot of dowry from her biological mother in her hands, so she was not short of money.

However, Huang Jing did not accept it, but insisted on living in the Meng Mansion and in her yard.

So at this moment, she wanted to hear what Huang Jing wanted.

"I can have whatever I want?" Huang Jing's eyes were full of anticipation.

Meng Shisan said: "You can tell me about it."

"Then can you tell me how you eliminated the second prince's followers?" To Meng Shisan's surprise, Huang Jing actually told him the purpose of her moving into the Meng Mansion.

Meng Shisan was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Like Master Lan, are you also very curious about the cause of death of those corpses?"

Huang Jing nodded repeatedly: "Yes! He is a magician, and I am a heavenly master. Although he specializes in killing and I specialize in surrendering, in fact, we both have the same strong curiosity about some strange things."

"You are so frank..." Meng Shisan thought for a moment, "It's not that I can't tell you, but before I say it, you have to tell me why you think the murder of those retainers has something to do with me."

This statement undoubtedly meant that she directly admitted that what Huang Jing said was true. Huang Jing knew it, but she had thought that Meng Shisan would evade her confession or deny it directly. She didn't expect Meng Shisan to cooperate with her surprisingly: "Before Lan Zhijin entered the second prince's private residence, I had also been to the private residence and sneaked in. Before him, I had already searched all the bodies. Even if he didn't tell me the specific cause of death, I knew it. After all, my lineage of heavenly masters is not inferior to that of magic masters."

"You mean you've been to the Second Prince's private residence before Master Lan, and Master Lan didn't know about it?" After Huang Jing nodded, Meng Shisan continued, "So, your sense of smell for demonic energy is even more sensitive than Master Lan's."

"Zi Lai is more sensitive, but that guy just won't admit it." Huang Jing asked further, "Those evil spirits are weak, but for us Heavenly Masters, as long as they are there, we can't fail to smell them, and as long as we can smell them, we can't help but track them down."

"So, what are you doubting?" Meng Shisan stroked his finger, "Do you think I'm a monster? Or do you think the people around me are monsters?"

Huang Jing chuckled twice again: "I'm asking you."

"If I tell you, you will believe it?" Meng Shisan asked again.

This time Huang Jing's face was serious: "That's not possible. I have to investigate it myself. I always try to subdue all monsters and never kill them."

She stated solemnly that she would not kill anyone.

This attitude satisfied Meng Shisan, and he replied in the same serious tone: "I am not a demon."

At the moment, she is indeed not a pure demon, but a half-demon with half human body and half demon soul.

As for the people around her, although she was the boss, she didn't want to make decisions for them about whether to confess. It was up to them to decide whether to confess or not.

Especially Mr. Ma.

She really had no right to decide for Mr. Ma whether to speak frankly to Huang Jing, the descendant of the Heavenly Master.

As soon as Meng Shisan said this, Shangchun, who was serving beside him, couldn't help laughing and almost burst out laughing, but fortunately she held it back in time.

Huang Jing blinked. This was the answer she wanted, but it was not the answer she wanted: "You are not...the other person..."

"Go and ask yourself, I'm not stopping you." Meng Shisan also blinked and said sincerely.

When Huang Jing went back to her room to think about who to ask next, Chang'an returned to the Meng Mansion and brought back a message to Meng Shisan: "County Magistrate Shi is fine. Imperial Physician Gao also said that as long as he can keep drinking the medicine, County Magistrate Shi can hold on until the end of the year."

"Can't get through the New Year?" Meng Shisan asked about the exact time.

Chang An shook his head: "No. And as for what the young lady is worried about, I don't know if she knows that I have been following behind Miss Shi. Anyway, all the way to the private residence of the prince, until entering the private residence, and until I came back, there was no surprise at all."

"Just one strike and it's gone?" Meng Shisan felt that it was so easy, which was a little strange. "Could it be that the next move is not here?"

But is there another trick to put Shi Que to death?

Chang An obviously thought of this as well: "Then I will go back to your private residence to guard it?"

She would guard the place personally, and no matter what tricks Li Heng had up his sleeve, she would be able to save Shi Que's life.

"Don't let anyone find out." Meng Shisan nodded, approving Chang'an's volunteering.

After Chang'an had his fill, he left the house and went to Li Shou's private residence again.
