This face is not hers.
This is not her!!!
Jiang Jingyuan looked at the flowing white figure in the distance in astonishment.
Before a massive bronze mirror, the height of an adult, the woman in white stood tall and straight, her every gesture exuding nobility. Her delicate features twisted slightly as she looked towards Jiang Jingyuan, her eyes filled with malice and resentment.
Jiang Jingyuan stared blankly at the figure and face that were completely different from his own, and felt that his mind was frozen.
This is not the appearance of Jiang Jingyuan or Jiang Yunshu from the past...
Then who is this?
Jiang Jingyuan waited blankly for a moment. When she found that no new people came out of the bronze mirror, she gradually felt a chill on her back.
Why not her?
Jiang Jingyuan wasn't expecting someone who looked exactly like her and hated her to appear. She just felt that the current situation was a little out of control.
She vaguely felt that behind this strange incident was the real reason why she suddenly came here from the post station.
"brush--!"
A sound of breaking air exploded in the dim cellar, and two figures in white, one tall and one short, in front of the huge bronze mirror suddenly rushed towards Jiang Jingyuan and the other person.
Jiang Jingyuan raised his hand to block, his inquiring eyes moving back and forth over the distorted yet delicate face of the woman in white in front of him.
On the other side, when the petite figure in white rushed in front of the girl at lightning speed, the girl in white mourning clothes took out a brass disc engraved with array patterns without changing her expression, and a huge and complicated magic array instantly lit up under her feet.
With a "bang", the white-clothed figure that was rushing towards him was pierced in the eyebrows by the arrow condensed by the magic circle in the blink of an eye. He slowly fell to the stone ground with bloodshot eyes.
The girl standing in front of it had a calm expression and it was over without her even moving.
Jiang Jingyuan, who was fighting with a tall woman in white, took a quick glance and was stunned. No, it's solved now?
The girl noticed her surprised gaze, and the calm expression of confidence on her face instantly disappeared. She smiled awkwardly and explained sheepishly, "I, I'm not very good at close combat. I only know a few formations..."
Without formations, you are just a useless warrior.
Jiang Jingyuan immediately understood what she hadn't said, and inexplicably and slightly awkwardly said "hmm" -
Who isn't...
While thinking in his mind, Jiang Jingyuan's hands and feet moved without hesitation. He kicked the woman in white in front of him away, and pulled the trigger with his backhand to pull the trigger on the aqua-blue plum blossom sleeve arrow.
In an instant, an arrow like an ice pierced through the eyebrows of the figure in white. The graceful figure in white suddenly widened his eyes and slowly fell backwards.
Jiang Jingyuan landed lightly on the white dress, which was layered like blooming flowers. Her eyes turned to stare at the bronze mirror as tall as a person in the distance.
The girl came up and stood beside her, also looking at the bronze mirror nervously.
But the two of them waited quietly for a moment, and there was silence in the dim cellar with flickering candlelight. The bronze mirror seemed to have turned into an ordinary object in an instant. Only the two figures in white lying on the ground reminded them that two resentful figures had walked out of the bronze mirror.
Jiang Jingyuan walked towards the bronze mirror. As she got closer, the blurry figure reflected in the huge bronze mirror gradually became clearer, but the reflection still did not turn into a solid entity and walk out of the bronze mirror.
Behind her, the girl hesitated for a moment and then walked forward, tentatively approaching the bronze mirror. The bronze mirror only reflected her appearance quietly, without any trace of attack.
Is this the end...? Jiang Jingyuan was becoming increasingly bewildered. She had no idea what all the events that had happened that night were all about.
After a pause, Jiang Jingyuan turned to look at the girl beside him and said calmly, "Go back and take a look at the scenery behind you."
The girl's face was covered with tears. She was stunned for a moment when she heard the words. After she came to her senses, she nodded quickly and turned around to walk back.
Listening to the clear and ethereal footsteps quickly walking away, Jiang Jingyuan was filled with thoughts. He turned around and casually fixed his gaze on the bronze mirror in front of him.
"Is this reality or a magical killing realm..." Jiang Jingyuan pondered this question again.
After thinking it over for a while, she still felt that everything they had just experienced was the killing realm of magic weapons, but why was the killing realm so similar to the Anshun Marquis Mansion?
Whose layout is this?
Jiang Jingyuan looked at the huge bronze mirror in front of her. After seeing its function, she understood why she had seen so many identical, emaciated old men before...
But what is all this for?
Jiang Jingyuan felt that this matter would be extremely difficult to accomplish without the cooperation of Anshun Hou, but if that was what Anshun Hou wanted, then he wanted to...
Her thoughts paused as Jiang Jingyuan remembered the pile of handwritten notes and books she had seen in the secret passage not long ago. She immediately understood, then frowned slightly. "If there's something crucial they want to leave behind for the other members of the Anshun Marquis's Mansion, then setting up a mechanism to block outsiders makes sense... But these obstacles could also very well kill the people within the Anshun Marquis's Mansion. Why didn't the Anshun Marquis find a way to create a small passage that would allow his own people to pass through unimpeded?"
Jiang Jingyuan recalled the words of the girl from the Xu family and thought, "It seems she's completely unaware of this. She even entered here unconsciously... In this situation, she's completely unprepared and alone, so it's very likely she'll die here."
"The information about what might be here is important. Marquis Anshun didn't tell his own people about it. But if you say it's not important, considering how dangerous the layout is, it seems to be quite important."
Jiang Jingyuan frowned and thought for a moment, then suddenly relaxed, "Could he be on guard against someone from the Xu family?"
"Looking at it this way, we really can't leave this secret trail to the Xu family, lest someone with ulterior motives get there first and leak out important information here."
Nodding secretly, Jiang Jingyuan thought of the girl again: "It's so hard for her. She came to this damn place without knowing anything..."
"Wait..." Jiang Jingyuan paused, as if remembering something. He was startled and said to himself with a strange look on his face, "She went through so much trouble to make this journey. Did she get anything? Did she quietly get what she was supposed to get when I wasn't noticing, or did she simply not have time to get anything?"
She suddenly thought of the sentence in the notebook: "Don't look for them. Success or failure depends on Xiao He. All you need to know is that they are coming!!!" Jiang Jingyuan couldn't help but complain in her heart: "If this sentence is the only important thing, then it's too deceptive..."
Jiang Jingyuan's fingertips twitched slightly, and she quickly suppressed the urge to take out the notebook and open it to continue reading. She thought silently, "The content behind this should explain who 'they' are. Perhaps there are also some instructions for the Xu family on how to avoid conflict and protect themselves."
"Let's see after we leave." Jiang Jingyuan thought so, and suddenly heard the crisp footsteps coming back from a distance.
At the same time, the girl's voice, filled with joy and excitement, rang out in the distance: "We're back! The secret passage behind is the one to my home, and above is my spirit house—"
Her words suddenly stopped.
Jiang Jingyuan, who was standing in front of the bronze mirror with his back to her, trembled and suddenly looked up.
The falling black hair with a warm fragrance gently brushed her cheek. Jiang Jingyuan's pupils shrank, and as soon as she turned her head, she stopped moving her neck abruptly.
Grayish-white mist had spread around her at some point, vaguely enveloping her. A luxurious figure in red emerged from the mist behind her. The thin and light red veil fluttered, and the figure in red noticed her movements, slowly turned around, and curled his red lips towards her.
Jiang Jingyuan's eyes and heart trembled slightly as he watched the pair of white arms slowly move forward and silently embrace the huge bronze mirror in front of Jiang Jingyuan.
The heavy bronze mirror as tall as a person was easily picked up by the hands. The red clothes and black hair fluttered, and the ghostly figure picked up the bronze mirror and quickly retreated into the gray-white clouds.
Jiang Jingyuan froze in place.
The gray-white mist around her surged faster and faster, gradually becoming thinner. Just when it was about to dissipate, the thin mist suddenly froze, and then suddenly a thicker gray-white mist suddenly jumped up, quickly wrapping up Jiang Jingyuan's figure.
The girl in white behind the clouds was suddenly shocked and rushed forward quickly.
After running just two steps, the thick fog in front of him suddenly dissipated.
There was no one in front of her.
Even the orange-red flames remained silent, as if the gray-white clouds that suddenly appeared and disappeared had never appeared in this cellar.
…………
faint!
Dizziness!
Jiang Jingyuan frowned, her head dizzy. Her pale little face became even paler as paper, and her facial features were slightly distorted.
Her eyes were tightly closed, her whole body squirming in a sea of red, and she turned over with pain and difficulty.
After a long pause, she finally opened her eyes, a look of despair in her eyes. Subconsciously, she thought, "What a terrible teleportation technology... Compared to this, riding in a carriage is much better... No... A short pain is worse than a long one, I'd better teleport..."
Large patches of red burned her eyes. Jiang Jingyuan's eyes turned and she sat up suddenly. The dizziness in her mind was temporarily suppressed.
She sat on the bright red bunk bed and saw the woman in red sitting at the table in front of her. She was holding a wooden comb and combing her long black hair that was tied in front of her very slowly, her movements were stiff.
Jiang Jingyuan: "!!!"
Jiang Jingyuan's pupils trembled. This damn thing is not over yet, is it?! What kind of hell has she been transported to again?!
Just as she was screaming inwardly with a few curses, Jiang Jingyuan was caught off guard when she saw the red lips reflected in the bronze mirror curl up.
Suddenly, Jiang Jingyuan's heart skipped a beat and then started beating rapidly "bang bang bang".
She stared at the beautiful face vaguely reflected in the bronze mirror, opened her eyes wide, and tried to see it more clearly and accurately.
Perhaps it was because her gaze was too intense, the graceful figure in red in front of her put down the wooden comb in her hand, slowly turned sideways in her sight, and turned to look at Jiang Jingyuan behind her.
Jiang Jingyuan's whole body stiffened, and he subconsciously retracted his gaze. After a pause, he raised his eyes carefully and looked again.
However, when Jiang Jingyuan's eyes took in the exquisite, vivid face that turned towards her, her mind went blank for a moment. She stared at the face intently, as if many thoughts flashed through her mind, and then she seemed so shocked that no thoughts formed at all.
The woman in red sitting in front of the dressing table had an indifferent expression on her face, and her eyes were full of indifference when she looked at Jiang Jingyuan. However, the next second, she curled her red lips towards Jiang Jingyuan strangely, and the temperament surrounding her suddenly changed from cold and ruthless to charming and bright with a bit of nonchalant attitude as if she was watching a fire from afar.
It was as if a string in his mind was instantly stretched to its limit. The sharp explosion made him dizzy and his lips moved uncontrollably.
This face...
she is--
The person who walked out of the bronze mirror!!!
