Chapter 45: The Chamber of Secrets

Ji Nuan took the three of them back to the inn. She wiped away her previous sad expression and went straight to a table to sit down. She smiled and asked the three of them to sit down, and then called the waiter to order a large table.

I took the lead in eating the dishes and desserts.

Seeing how much she had changed, several people felt a little worried. In the past, she always did what she did without thinking when things happened. But now she knew that Mo Feng was the culprit, but she remained unmoved.

Instead, they ate here leisurely, so that they could rest assured.

"Eat, why are you all looking at me? I can't finish all the food."

Ji Nuan always had a smile on her face. She started to pick up a chicken drumstick for each of the three people, and then picked up another one for herself. At first, she ate it with chopsticks. Maybe she thought it was inconvenient, so she simply put down the chopsticks and grabbed them directly.

I picked up the chicken legs and started to chew on them.

"Ji Nuan, don't eat it. If you are sad, just cry. It will be much better if you cry." Tang Siyan snatched the chicken drumstick from her hand and began to comfort her. He knew her, she was kind-hearted, and would definitely treat her

Yan Ling's death still bothers her.

"What are you doing? Why am I crying? Yanling killed someone and made a mistake. She deserves this fate today. It's just a cycle of cause and effect. No matter who it is, as long as they make a mistake, they should be punished." Ji Nuan said on one side

After saying that, he immediately snatched back the chicken legs and continued to eat.

Tang Siyan vaguely felt something was wrong after listening to what she said, but he couldn't put it in words. Looking at Ji Nuan's unladylike expression, he was still a little worried.

Last time, the deaths of Mo Yun and Xiang Ling were a big blow to her, but luckily Song Wangchen was here, and he always protected her at critical moments. But this time Song Wangchen didn't show up, if she did something again

, and who can protect her?

Yu Man heard the implication of Ji Nuan's words. She knew that she would not let Mo Feng go easily. The current calm situation was just a prelude to the violent storm.

"Ji Nuan, no matter what, I will always be with you." Yu Man patted her back gently, then followed her example and started chewing the chicken legs.

Ji Nuan stared at her blankly, the smile on her face suddenly disappeared, and the tears that had been accumulated for a long time finally broke out and slowly fell down her pretty face.

Yu Man just smiled at her and continued eating.

Tang Siyan also breathed a sigh of relief. If she cried, she would get better after crying. He hurriedly handed Ji Nuan a handkerchief.

However, Ji Nuan slapped it away, then chuckled and said, "What are you doing? I'm just touched." After saying that, she wiped away her tears with her sleeves, reached for a piece of dessert, and ate it.

How could she give up so easily? Mo Feng has done many evil things, and the missing monk has not been found. But she also knows that this trip is dangerous, and she does not want any of them to follow her and take risks. This time she wants to go to Mo Mansion alone to find evidence

, to restore Mo Yun's innocence. Even if he fails, the worst he can do is die. As long as he doesn't harm others, death doesn't matter.

At night, Ji Nuan was the first to lie on the bed. She closed her eyes tightly, thinking that she would go to Mo Mansion to find out the truth when Yu Man fell asleep.

However, Yu Man just sat quietly by the bed, staring at her closely. How could she not know Ji Nuan's thoughts? She felt sorry for others, but not for herself. She must be so abnormal today so as not to hurt others.

, but how could she be willing to let her take risks alone.

"Stop pretending, I know you haven't slept. Let's go! Let's go to Mo Mansion together."

Ji Nuan opened her eyes after hearing this. Once upon a time, Yu Man had become the person who understood her best. She was satisfied to have such a close friend in her life, so she couldn't let it hurt her.

"Yu Man, I've figured it out. Mo Yun and the others are already dead. Even if I find out the truth, they won't survive. So what's the use of being innocent?"

"

Ji Nuan..." Yu Man wanted to say more, but found that Ji Nuan had closed her eyes. After all, she didn't expose her anymore, so let's just guard her like this.

About half an hour later, Ji Nuan actually fell asleep. As her even breathing came, Yu Man's tense nerves finally relaxed. She couldn't help but touch her cheek with her hand, and the smooth and delicate

The touch made her immediately retract her hand, she couldn't help but blush a little, and her heartbeat began to speed up.

She hurriedly stood up and opened the window, hoping that the cold wind would wake her up. During this time, her feelings for Ji Nuan had gone beyond friendship and became increasingly unclear and unclear.

She was afraid that one day Ji Nuan would know her thoughts and they would no longer be friends. If that was the case, she would rather hide her thoughts, at least she could still stay by her side in the name of a friend.

When Ji Nuan woke up the next day, Yu Man was leaning on the edge of the bed with his head on one hand. When he saw her waking up, he immediately sat upright and asked with a smile: "You're awake, did you sleep well?"

Ji Nuan was deeply moved. She knew that Yu Man stayed up all night just because he was worried about her. She immediately sat up with a smile.

"Well, that's good. Why don't you take a break?"

"I am not tired".

The two of them were silent for a long time. Ji Nuan started to get out of bed and get dressed. While getting dressed, he said, "I want to go to the bamboo house to see Song Wangchen again. Let's leave tomorrow!"

Yu Man was shocked when he heard this, and then asked with relief: "Leave? Where to go?"

"I went to Yueyang. I heard that the Sophora japonica flowers there are very beautiful. I want to see them."

Yu Man was even more confused as to where there were sophora flowers in this season, but she didn't point it out and just said "ok".

Then she followed Ji Nuan to the bamboo house, but she only stopped ten meters away from the bamboo house. Just staring at Ji Nuan's actions, to be honest, she still didn't believe that Ji Nuan would give up easily.

Ji Nuan gently opened the door, but there was still no one inside. She gently touched the table with her hand, which was immediately covered with dust.

Where did Song Wangchen go? Since the last time we said goodbye to the Mo family's ancestral grave, he has never appeared again. In the past, he always appeared suddenly when she was in the most danger. She has long been used to it. He didn't come yesterday.

In fact, she felt somewhat disappointed.

Ji Nuan walked to the guqin and couldn't help but touch it gently with her hands. Thinking of Song Wangchen sitting there arrogantly playing the qin, a happy smile appeared on her face. It must be the most beautiful scenery in the world, but

I'm afraid I'll never see him again!

Ji Nuan stayed in the bamboo house like this for a day, and Yu Man also waited for a day. She began to worry a little, and gradually she couldn't hold back anymore and walked towards the bamboo house.

When she opened the door, she found that there was no one inside. Ji Nuan, before she could think about it, Ji Nuan appeared behind her and slapped her on the back of her neck, causing her to faint immediately.

"I'm sorry, Yu Man. I can't bring you any trouble. Just sleep here for one night and don't look for me again in the future."

Ji Nuan helped her to the bed and covered her with a quilt gently. Then she turned around and left decisively, saying goodbye to Yu Man, never again!

Then she walked all the way to Mo Mansion under the moonlight. Xiang Ling's room was next to the forest, so she followed the forest to Xiangyou Garden.

As if in compliance with the master's wishes, all the plum blossoms in the courtyard withered, and all the flowers and plants inside withered. The once beautiful scenery now became desolate.

Ji Nuan hid and hid along the corridor, and finally came to Mo Feng's door. No one noticed her along the way, which seemed to be abnormally smooth, but she had no time to think too much and opened the door quietly.

walked in.

There was no one in the room, so she slowly walked behind the screen, thinking of everything she had done with Song Wangchen that day, and reluctantly touched the screen.

Suddenly a wall slowly opened and she immediately hid behind the bed.

Mo Feng slowly walked out from behind the wall. He glanced at the ajar door, raised an evil smile at the corner of his mouth, and then walked straight out.

Ji Nuan waited for him to go away and then slowly approached the wall. She began to look around for clues. If there was such a wall hidden in Mo Feng's room, there must be some ulterior secret.

But after groping for a long time, the wall still didn't move. She began to feel discouraged and put her hand on a pile of books. Suddenly she felt that the book was shaking. She immediately pressed the book down hard.

, the wall opened automatically, and it turned out that the book was the mechanism.

Ji Nuan walked in without thinking twice, but the wall closed automatically as soon as she entered. She looked back and walked straight forward.

The secret passage was brightly lit, and she moved forward cautiously, looking around constantly. She had a vague premonition in her heart, but now she could only bravely move forward.

Not long after, twenty or thirty monks appeared in front of them. They were all locked in a transparent barrier. They kept calling for help and beating the barrier desperately. But Ji Nuan couldn't hear the sounds they made.

It can be seen from their expressions that they are calling for help, and the barrier actually has a sound insulation effect.

Ji Nuan slowly approached the barrier and patted it gently.

The people inside seemed to have seen a savior and called for help even more. Some of them had been captured for several months. Except for Mo Feng and some captured monks, she was the first to find this place. How could they not be excited?

.

She immediately pulled out her sword and waved her hand to signal them to retreat. Everyone hurriedly retreated, with a look of deep anticipation on their faces. Ji Nuan quickly drew out her sword and struck hard at the barrier, but the barrier was like a spring.

, was dented by the chop, and then bounced up again without even making a sound.

Ji Nuan continued to chop wildly without giving up, but it still had no effect. Their expressions also changed from expectation to disappointment, and soon turned to panic.

"It's useless. This barrier can only be opened by the person who set it up. Miss Ji, please don't waste your efforts."

Mo Feng had appeared behind Ji Nuan at some point, and was staring at her with a playful expression. He had known that someone was hiding by the bed, and he was just pretending to go out. Now that Ji Nuan took the initiative to come here, it suits him.

Ji Nuan immediately turned around and faced his smiling face. There was no fear on her face. She had already prepared for the worst, so what was there to be afraid of now?

"It's really you, why did you do this?"

Mo Feng was not in a hurry to answer, but looked at her seriously, and then laughed and said: "She is really a good person, no wonder even a heartless person like Song Jue would be tempted. It's a pity that she is too stubborn, otherwise

I am not willing to kill you."

After Mo Feng said this, he waved his right hand gently, and Ji Nuan was immediately locked up by a barrier. The position where she stood happened to be in the center of the magic circle, playing right into his hands.

On the day when Jia Qing manipulated living puppets to besiege Ji Nuan and the others, Mo Feng was also secretly observing. He saw with his own eyes that Ji Nuan wounded Jia Qing with a gun. He was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he left first.

Unexpectedly, Jia Qing was actually killed by Yan Ling in the end, which saved him from having to do it himself. However, the 'sacred weapon' on Ji Nuan made him a little afraid, and now he locked her in the barrier, no matter what she did.
