I see You Lian is the ally

Chapter 234 The Living Dead
The room was extremely silent.

The night breeze flowed in from the window, and the auspicious cloud-like green smoke rising above the smoker was blown away.

Huajiao looked down at the empty palms, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, his fingers trembling slightly, and his heart beating violently, as if it would jump out of his chest at any time.

The moon halo that Yu Taiqing gave her was gone.

That thin and curved hook seemed to sense something and actually flew away on its own.

Huajiao had a vague feeling in his heart that it was going to find its owner.

For some reason, Huajiao always felt that the glow in the sky and the colorful auspicious clouds in Yunxu might have something to do with Yu Taiqing.

The next day.

Accompanied by Chu Xian, Huajiao went to the prison together.

Chu Xian originally wanted to bring Xiao Qiukui to the torture chamber for interrogation, but Huajiao refused.She personally carried the food box and delivered it to the prison.

As the two walked along the corridor, the prisoners in the cell next to them looked up at them.

The prisoners here are all women. They are cut off from sunlight and fresh air all year round, and their faces are all abnormally pale.A female prisoner heard the noise and rushed over, holding on to the iron bars and talking crazily.

Huajiao sighed unconsciously. The smell in the cell was not very pleasant, and there was a hint of moldy smell in the dullness, which made people extremely uncomfortable.No matter how normal a person is, if he stays here for a long time, he will probably go crazy.

Xiao Qiukui's prison was a single room with several low couches in it.Huajiao ordered Chu Xian to open the cell door and walked straight in.

Xiao Qiukui and Jing Chai, a commoner, huddled on the low couch, looking up at the small one-foot-square window on the east wall. When she heard the movement, she turned around and glanced back.

She was thinner than before, but she was cleanly dressed and looked calm. The Xiao family must have spent a lot of money to bribe the jailer.

Hua Jiao placed the food box in front of her and opened it. He took out the food inside and placed it on several tables. He said with a smile: "Ms. Xiao, I went to Fengyang Tower to order this specially. I ordered people to hurry up and deliver it. It's still warm now, please use it first."

Xiao Qiukui glanced at the official uniform on Hua Jiao, smiled softly, and said: "It turns out you are the new Superintendent of Tianshu Si. I heard that Madam Jiang killed her lover and replaced him as the Superintendent of Tianshu Si. Supervisor, it turns out it’s true, it’s really admirable.”

Huajiao heard the sarcasm in Xiao Qiukui's words and couldn't help but smile slightly.

It turns out that even the criminals in the prison knew about her killing Yu Taiqing.

"Why didn't Superintendent Jiang send me to the execution room for interrogation?" Xiao Qiukui looked at the food in front of him and asked, "Could this be decapitation rice?"

Huajiao raised his lips and smiled, and said calmly: "That's not the case, little lady, just feel free to use it. I'm not here to interrogate you, I just have a few questions that I want Madam Xiao to answer."

Huajiao said, noticing that Xiao Qiukui's wrists were tied with cloth strips, and asked: "Ms. Xiao, is she injured?"

"Small injury, bitten by a dog." Xiao Qiukui said nonchalantly.

"Can you be bitten by a dog in prison?" Huajiao raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Have you ever received medicine for this injury?"

She vaguely smelled a faint smell of decay, which seemed to be mixed with corpse gas.Xiao Qiukui took a piece of food with chopsticks and slowly put it into his mouth. He said in a sweet voice: "Thank you, Madam Jiang, for your concern. I'm fine. However, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you today. I'm not a living Bodhisattva, so why should I answer your questions?" "

Huajiao narrowed his eyes and said: "Although you are not a living Bodhisattva, you are the little lady of the Xiao family. In order to redress for my aunt, you are willing to risk yourself. You will never leave your parents and grandmothers alone until they die."

Xiao Qiukui was stunned, and the silver chopstick in his hand fell to the ground: "What are you talking about, what happened to our Xiao family? I said that one person is responsible for everything, and it has nothing to do with my family. You also said that you will not kill the Xiao family. Are you going to go back on your word? ?”

Hua Jiao picked up the silver chopsticks that fell on the ground, wiped them with a handkerchief, handed them over and said, "Ms. Xiao, Tianshu Division has not reneged on our word. However, the Tianmen is now open. If the Tianmen Yunxu is not closed, the monsters will sooner or later kill them." Do you think your Xiao family can survive the destruction of the world? There are some things that I advise you not to hide anymore, and to tell them clearly as soon as possible, so that we can help us find the big evil behind the scenes and close the gate of heaven."

Xiao Qiukui's eyes widened in surprise, and the dim light in the cell cast a dark shadow on her face.

She pursed her lips, glanced at the corner of the painting, and said, "I have nothing to say."

"Really?" Huajiao's eyes instantly turned cold, "Then let me ask you, who is Ah Rong?"

When Xiao Qiukui heard Ah Rong's name, she suddenly raised her head and looked at the corner of the painting.

Huajiao sneered: "You don't say so, then I'll tell you. Ah Rong is the demon master of Tuanhua Valley. The disciples of Tuanhua Valley have been hiding from the world these years. How did you find her? Why is she willing to do it for you?" What do you use?"

Ever since he saw Ah Rong Chuxian in the palace in Ning Zhi's room in Tuanhua Valley, Huajiao knew that Ning Zhi and Ah Rong were working for others, and Ah Rong had once been Xiao Qiukui's maid, so that person must be the one who will Ah Rong was sent to Xiao Qiukui's side.

"Although you have shouldered all the charges, how could you, a weak woman, bring back your dead aunt who is far away in Nanzhao Kingdom? Your aunt is a princess in name, and she will go to Nanzhao's royal mausoleum after her death. , not everyone can bring her body back, not to mention using magic to force her soul to stay in the body."

"There are people behind you who are helping you. You said that your father and grandmother didn't know about it. So, who is the person who helped you?"

The voice from the painting corner was cold and soft, echoing in the dark basement.

A trace of panic flashed in Xiao Qiukui's eyes, but her body trembled and she gritted her teeth forcefully without saying a word.

Hua Jiao shook his head, with a trace of pity flashing in his eyes, and said somewhat unbearably: "Do you still remember the lottery we drew at Jingci Temple that day? Your lottery is Luan Feng Yu Fei, success is due to him, and failure is also due to him. Because of him. When you said you wanted marriage, I guessed that you had the right person. "

Although Huajiao's voice was soft, his tone was extremely firm: "Do you still remember how the monk interpreted the fortune? He said that what you asked for is just a dream after all. I just figured out that I can make a little lady risk her life. The only person who is destined to protect you is your lover. Therefore, the person who instigates you behind the scenes must be your lover."

The shock in Xiao Qiukui's eyes deepened.

When Huajiao saw her expression, he knew he was right.

"You just said that you want to catch the demon king who is doing evil behind the scenes. Isn't the demon king Yu Taiqing?" Xiao Qiukui asked.

Huajiao looked at Xiao Qiukui calmly and said, "He is not."

"So, what do you mean, he is the Demon King?" Xiao Qiukui's voice trembled slightly.

Huajiao understood who he was referring to in her words: "I don't dare to say for sure, but he must have some connection with the Demon King."

"Who is he?" Huajiao asked quietly.
