Chapter 39 The Demon Lord Becomes My Little Guardian 11
The true appearance of the black portrait slowly emerged.
The portraits were neatly arranged together. The edges and corners of the portrait inside were a little yellowed, and it looked quite old. However, the painting facing the two people looked very new. Perhaps it was because the environment in the secret room was too humid, the ink had not dried yet. Jiang Zhi reached out to touch it and got a few traces of ink.
The portraits all showed the same woman, sometimes playing chess quietly, sometimes practicing swordplay seriously, and sometimes sitting at the dinner table gnawing on chicken legs. Jiang Zhi was a little dazed, because the woman in the portrait was herself.
The absurd guess came true, Wang Chaoyang actually had feelings for her.
Li Chuan stared at the portraits in front of him, wishing he could tear them apart one by one. Jealousy had distorted his appearance beyond recognition.
He looked away and his gaze fell on Jiang Zhi, quietly watching the girl's reaction.
Unexpectedly, she also acted surprised.
Could it be that she didn't know Wang Chaoyang's unusual thoughts?
Li Chuan felt very conflicted, and even a hint of secret joy rose in his heart.
Jiang Zhi restrained his outward emotions and asked curiously, "Who is this girl? She looks so beautiful."
At this moment, he didn't forget to praise himself.
Li Chuan curled his lips and retorted mercilessly, "Beautiful? How come I didn't see that?"
Jiang Zhi jumped up and down in anger as if his tail had been stepped on.
"That shows you have no vision!"
Li Chuan raised his eyebrows and said nothing.
It's because he has no vision that he is waiting for this heartless woman.
Amidst the quarrel, a faint cry of pain caught their attention. Jiang Zhi followed the sound to its source, a massive iron cage holding a naked woman, her body covered in bruises and dirt. Her hair was a mess, like a madman, but her eyes were exceptionally bright.
Jiang Zhi stood there in a daze, rubbing his eyes vigorously, as if he couldn't believe what he saw. Then he felt extremely angry, almost shaking all over. He pierced his palms with his nails and pinched them hard to draw blood.
Those eyes are so similar to my original self.
Wang Chaoyang treated the woman as a substitute, giving her endless pain and torture, just to see the pitiful and delicate look in her eyes.
Because the real Jiang Zhi would never show a vulnerable look to him, not only to him, but to anyone else.
Li Chuan didn't see the woman's appearance, so he raised his sword and cut the iron chain.
"Click"
The iron chain broke and fell to the ground. The woman was so frightened that her whole body was shaking. She was mumbling something indistinctly.
Jiang Zhi stretched out his hand, and when the woman dodged, he forcefully pulled her out and opened her mouth.
It was dark, like a black hole, and her tongue had been cruelly cut off.
There was no time to dwell on the reason, Li Chuan suddenly grabbed Jiang Zhi's hand.
"What's wrong?"
"Someone is coming, run"
Jiang Zhi immediately grabbed the crazy woman with his other hand and followed.
Running out of the dog hole, Li Chuan took a look into the secret room and without hesitation threw out a ball of fire. The flames instantly climbed up the curtains and swept across the entire secret room. The portrait slowly became blurred in the fire until it turned into ashes.
Ling Xuanzong is almost entirely composed of Wang Chaoyang's people, so Jiang Zhi can only put the crazy woman in his own room.
After being imprisoned for a long time, the woman had lost consciousness and was almost collapsed. After escaping from the dark cage, she fell into a coma.
The entire Ling Xuanzong has fallen into chaos, the secret room was burned, Wang Chaoyang was furious and ordered everyone to find the mastermind behind the incident, otherwise they would be killed without mercy. Ling Jiang took the opportunity to sneak in with an old doctor.
"How is it? Is your life in danger?"
The doctor shook his head repeatedly, stroking his long beard and said, "There is a magic medicine, her life is safe, but she has no desire to live, she may never wake up."
This is the worst outcome.
Jiang Zhi dismissed the doctor, thought for a long time, and finally picked up the pillow and knocked on Li Chuan's door.
After a long time, the door was opened.
Li Chuan looked like he had just taken a bath. He was only wearing a pure white undergarment, his hair half wet and draped behind him, two naughty water droplets on his thin lips, and he had a faint scent of cedar on him.
What a picture of a handsome man emerging from the bath!
Jiang Zhi tightened his grip on the pillow, trying hard to suppress his animal nature.
She was afraid that she would lose control, so she rushed up to him and did it.
"What's up?"
Li Chuan frowned, full of impatience, as if he didn't welcome her arrival at all.
Jiang Zhi was not discouraged at all, and said cunningly, "My room has been occupied by that woman, and I have no place to sleep."
Subtext: I didn't come to you on purpose, I had no choice.
Li Chuan was so angry that his teeth itched, his tongue pressed down his cheek, he folded his arms, leaned lazily against the door, and spoke leisurely.
"If you don't have a place to sleep, sleep outside. After all, you look so pretty that you won't be afraid of being raped."
Dog man!
Jiang Zhi cursed in his heart and put on a pitiful expression.
"But it's cold outside and the floor is hard. I won't be able to sleep."
Her big eyes were watery and blinking, and she was extremely well-behaved.
She only looks obedient, but in fact she is a heartless and disloyal woman.
Thinking of the unbearable past, Li Chuan was in no mood to joke and spoke fiercely.
"What's it to me?"
Li Chuan's expression changed very quickly. In the last second he looked like a playboy who flirted with decent women, and in the next second he looked like a vicious dog biting people at the village entrance, with sharp fangs and no mercy.
An unromantic man!
"Then I'll sleep with Ling Jiang!!!"
Jiang Zhi was also annoyed, and turned and left after saying something.
Dog Lichuan, if you don’t coax me anymore I will ignore you!
Li Chuan did not try to persuade her to stay. He watched the woman's back disappear in the distance and lowered his eyes.
"Pada, pada"
A few small water droplets appeared on the ground.
I knew I was never your only choice.
………
It was already late at night, and the cold wind was blowing, causing the wooden windows to creak.
"Host, do you really want to sleep outside?"
"yes"
Jiang Zhi placed a pillow beside the door, lay down obediently, crossed his legs and counted the stars.
"One"
"Two"
"Three"
"Host, aren't you cold?"
"Of course it's cold, eh, seven of them."
"Then why do you..."
Xiaobai wants to say: Are you crazy?
Jiang Zhi could guess what Xiaobai was thinking at the moment, and pretended to be profound, "It's a self-torture trick, do you understand? I can guarantee that after tonight, the black value will be reduced by half."
"Are you going to sell your body?"
Xiaobai was a little excited
"Get lost! Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Thinking of his miserable life in bed in his previous life, Jiang Zhi suddenly felt weak in the legs.
"Okay, good luck to you."
Without the exciting clips, Xiaobai was too lazy to pay attention to Jiang Zhi. He hid in the corner and secretly learned the 108 ways to seduce girls.
At this time in the room
Li Chuan stared at the ceiling with bloodshot eyes, a dark plan spreading in his mind.
Why can't you coax me a little more?
Why are you so impatient?
Should I tie you up so you won't be stingy about giving me a glance?
