On the stone table in the middle of the pavilion, three brocade boxes were stacked.
Neither Lin Ji nor Lu Zhaoer spoke, they just sat quietly and waited.
At about midnight, a light rain began to fall from the sky.
Light footsteps sounded on the muddy ground in the distance.
Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer raised their heads almost at the same time and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from.
It was a graceful and familiar figure, and his figure was a bit taller than what Lin Ji had seen in the short videos in his previous life.
She was wearing a light yellow skirt, wearing a pair of embroidered shoes that had been stained with a few mud spots on her feet, and her face was still wearing the plain mask.
Regardless of appearance, this figure alone is one of the best. I really don’t understand the aesthetics of these people in Shanyuan County.
What a waste of resources!
Seeing Huang Cui appear, Lin Ji wandered around for a while.
"Master Lin?"
A voice pulled Lin Ji back, who didn't know what he was thinking.
"This is my explanation to you. The heads of the Jiang family, father and son, and the person who defiled you are all here."
Lin Ji's eyes were shining brightly, and he looked at Huang Cui's dim eyes through the mask.
At this moment, perhaps because of Lin Ji's words, or perhaps because of the three heads on the table, there was finally some brightness in his dim eyes.
Huang Cui walked into the pavilion, her body already wet from the rain.
She sat down, opposite Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer.
"During the day, I will follow you." Huang Cui's voice rang.
Hearing this, Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer looked at each other, each already expecting something in their minds.
"Are you satisfied with this explanation?" Lin Ji asked.
Huang Cui was silent for a moment and shook her head.
"I'm not satisfied because no matter how much I take revenge, I can't go back."
Lin Ji was silent.
Huang Cuize continued: "But you can do so much for me, and I am already satisfied."
As he spoke, Huang Cui took off the mask on his face.
Just as thunder flashed in the sky, the dark pavilion was illuminated for a moment.
That half-beautiful, half-ferocious face also flashed before the eyes of Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer.
"Huang Cui is not a person who doesn't know good from evil... You two are from Jian Tiansi, but you can do this to me, a person who violates the law with monks' methods. It doesn't matter whether you pity me or uphold justice, but because of emotion and reason,
, I should stop being aggressive and entangled.”
Hearing this, Lin Ji subconsciously looked at Lu Zhaoer.
Lu Zhaoer lowered his head, wondering what he was thinking.
Lin Ji looked at Huang Cui again, knowing that the other person was ready to give up.
"Where are you going to go next, Miss Huang?"
"I don't know, maybe I'll go back to Huang's house, or maybe I'll go for a walk." Huang Cui wasn't very excited about the conversation.
But at this moment, Lu Zhaoer suddenly raised his head.
"We helped you take revenge out of compassion, but we also violated the laws of the Qin Dynasty."
Lin Ji and Huang Cui looked at Lu Zhaoer together.
"What do you want to say?" Lin Ji frowned slightly.
"She has been given an explanation for this matter, but she should also give an explanation to Jian Tiansi and the other innocent people of Shanyuan County." Lu Zhaoer said, but subconsciously did not dare to look into Lin Ji's eyes.
"Does Lu Youxing want to arrest me? That's right...Although I have suffered great injustice, it still affects innocent people."
Huang Cui smiled calmly.
"Catch Lu Youxing if you want, I won't resist."
"What are you arresting? You didn't kill anyone, so this is not the crime!" Lin Ji quit and worked on his own for a long time. Wasn't it just to give Huang Cui justice?
As soon as these words came out, Huang Cui was stunned and thought to herself, shouldn't the two of you be in the same group?
Lu Zhaoer, on the other hand, looked coldly at Lin Ji.
"What did you say?!"
"The law should be tolerant. Since you have made an exception in this matter before and agree with my approach, then simply be more thorough. I will be responsible for all the consequences of this matter."
As he spoke, Lin Ji waved his hand towards Huang Cui, gesturing for her to leave quickly.
Huang Cui was stunned and didn't know why.
"Come on, what are you waiting for?" Lin Ji whispered, "Remember to keep your eyes open in the future and don't be stupid again."
Huang Cui nodded, looked at Lin Ji and Lu Zhaoer strangely, then put on a mask, saluted, and quietly disappeared into the rainy night.
It wasn't until Huang Cui disappeared that Lin Ji looked at Lu Zhaoer again.
"Why do I always feel like you are my boss?" Lu Zhaoer tilted his head and looked at Lin Ji with some dissatisfaction.
"Lu Youxing is joking. In front of you, I am just a local monster hunter, not worth mentioning."
"Glib tongue." Lu Zhaoer rolled his eyes at Lin Ji and did not pursue further.
"Mr. Lin, what do you think the outcome will be if this case is handled according to Daqin's laws and regulations?"
"You know the answer. You are more familiar with Da Qin's laws and regulations than I am."
"I want to hear the answer from your mouth." Lu Zhaoer's tone increased.
Lin Ji shook his head and laughed.
He knew that Lu Zhaoer was looking for a reason to comfort himself by letting Huang Cui go for selfish reasons. Obviously, as a daughter, Lu Zhaoer also sympathized with Huang Cui.
"According to the laws of the Qin Dynasty, even if Jiang and Huang died in the Jiang family, the government would have no control over it."
"Can't care?"
"I don't care." Lin Ji nodded heavily, "After marrying into the Jiang family, Huang Cui... No, whether the Jiang Huang family is dead or alive, whether they are dragged away and sold by the Jiang family, or whether they are beaten every day at home, it all depends on the Jiang family.
My own business."
"As long as the Chiang family does not report this beastly incident, no matter how outrageous it is, the government will not be able to intervene."
Lu Zhaoer let out a long sigh of relief, got up, walked out of the pavilion, and walked into the rainy night.
She did not use her spiritual energy to prevent the rain from touching her body. She allowed the misty drizzle of late spring to fall on her body.
It seems that I want to take advantage of the refreshing rain to make myself more awake.
She stood in the rain for half an hour.
Lin Ji stood in the pavilion and looked at her quietly for half an hour.
Lu Zhaoer, who was soaked by the rain, turned out to have such a good figure, not inferior to Huang Cui!
"What are you thinking about? What happened to me today?" Lin Ji patted his forehead and stopped thinking about these distracting thoughts.
After a long time.
"Maybe you did the right thing." Lu Zhaoer looked back at Lin Ji, "Let's go!"
"Where to go?" Lin Ji was puzzled.
"The next place." Lu Zhaoer replied.
Lin Ji helplessly held up his forehead.
"Lu Youxing, are you traveling at night again? Still facing the rain?"
"Is it possible that Mr. Lin is so weak that he can't bear the slightest torment, and this little bit of rain can make you catch wind and cold?"
Men cannot tolerate being ridiculed by women.
"Then let's go, go back to the county to pick up the horses, and continue south."
"No, I don't want to set foot in Shanyuan County again in my life." Lu Zhaoer shook his head and walked towards the south.
Lin Ji could only follow him, walking a few steps faster and walking side by side with Lu Zhaoer.
Neither of them mentioned Huang Cui's matter again.
But not long after we left, there was suddenly some movement above our heads.
It was a pigeon with a somewhat agile temperament that landed on Lu Zhaoer's shoulder.
"Carrier pigeon?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.
"This is the spiritual pigeon raised by the Supervisor of Heaven to send a message." Lu Zhaoer explained.
"Is this safe? A monk in the second realm can catch such a pigeon."
"So what if we capture it?" Lu Zhaoer took out his Star Token and waved it in front of the spirit pigeon, "They only recognize Tiansi's token, it's useless if others catch it."
Sure enough, the spirit pigeon opened its mouth and spat out a small note.
Lin Ji looked on curiously and couldn't help but ask: "What is it written about?"
