Beauty Steals the Country [End Times]

Jiang Feng couldn't believe what he heard in his ears. It felt like being struck by lightning, and he was caught off guard, even about to suffocate. It seemed that the surrounding air pressure had risen in vain, and his brain was dizzy due to lack of oxygen.Jiang Feng suddenly took two steps to the side and squatted down against the wall. Jiang Feng thought it would be better, but in fact it was useless. The feeling of anxiety was like a thick pile of cumulonimbus clouds on his heart.

Zhu'er called out suspiciously, "President Jiang Jun?"

There was no sign of Jiang Feng outside the door, Mu Xishan frowned and wanted to go over to have a look, but Jiang Qi who was next to him grabbed his arm, "Now, you and I had better not appear in front of him."

Jiang Qi crossed Muxi Mountain, stepped forward and said to Zhu'er, "Jiang Feng is not feeling well, take him back to his room, I have something to talk to your city lord." Seeing the bewildered look on Jiang Feng's face, it was as if he didn't know why things turned out like this.Feeling distressed in Jiang Qi's heart, he finally looked back and closed the door completely, isolating everything outside the house.

Jiang Qi turned around and saw Mu Xishan's cold face, felt a little headache and said, "I know you're definitely not in a good mood now, but please believe me, I didn't return to base S to humiliate you... Regarding the behavior just now, I sincerely apologize to you."

Mu Xishan walked to the mirror and saw the bruises on his neck, which showed that Jiang Qi didn't show mercy when he struck, "Being able to attack with an innocent face gave me a deeper understanding of your 'decisiveness' and 'hypocrisy' .”

Jiang Qi sighed in his heart, "Husband and wife share property, if I really want to hurt you, I won't give you a chance to live... Believe me, as the leader of the north, what you have seen is the most 'soft-hearted' side of me .”

"So, I should be grateful to accept your gift?" Mu Xishan turned to look at Jiang Qi, almost sneered, "Sorry, I can't thank a person who intends to kill me for not killing me! Now I I just want to know, what is the reason for what I suffered?"

Jiang Qi pursed his lips together and fell silent.

Mu Xishan sat down on the chair, not intending to be fooled, "I just saw that your head didn't have a shadow on the ground... But before today, it wasn't like that."

Jiang Qi thought for a moment, then made up his mind to take off his hat, gloves, clothes, and shoes. None of his naked body left a shadow on the ground. Shadow, "Did you support the shadow with your clothes?"

Jiang Qi nodded, sat down next to Muxi Mountain, and said, "I once inspired a supernatural power, it was a very strange supernatural power, my parents called it 'grabbing time', for example, in the withered flower I can get the flowers that once bloomed on the tree, and the fruit that will bear in the future on the seedlings of the trees, but the price of this ability is that flowers will not grow in the withered places, and the saplings will gradually die, so my parents strictly forbid me to use it. , and claimed that I have no supernatural powers.”

"What does this have to do with your shadow?"

Jiang Qi continued: "When I was seven years old, my parents died unexpectedly in the quarantine area. At that time, I was whimsical and wanted to use this ability to find my parents before they died. Countless black gas ran out and surrounded me, and then my shadow began to twist as if alive, and finally turned into a mass of black figures and ran away."

"That's Xi Shan?"

Jiang Qi nodded again, "It was the full moon that day, and I fearfully thought that the shadow would disappear completely, but that night I had a strange dream, which told me that in order to restore everything to normal, I must find a book, and then After waking up from the dream, there was a strange book in my hand, but my supernatural ability disappeared completely. Three days later, the shadow came back, and after that, I found that every few days before and after the full moon, he could leave me, And, he took the book away, too."

Hearing this, Mu Xishan finally clarified the origin of the holy book, but Jiang Qi’s confession not only failed to generate trust in him, but also became vigilant, “...Actually, you just need to tell me that your shadow has changed. became someone else."

"I have never mentioned this matter to anyone, including my brother." Jiang Qi faced Muxi Mountain, his blue eyes were as deep as the sea, and said slowly, "Before you make a marriage contract with me, I will tell you These are not good for me, I used to plan to hide this secret by not marrying for the rest of my life, but the accident just now was not my intention, speaking from my own heart, I actually appreciate you very much."

Jiang Qi raised Mu Xishan's hand, and promised in a firm tone, "I will give you the respect that is due between partners."

Mu Xishan withdrew his hand without pretense, and said in the same firm tone, "I will not fulfill any obligations between partners."

Jiang Qi was stunned for a moment, and then showed a gentle smile, "The things you worry about will never happen... In my life plan, there is no content of sharing the same bed with others."

The night was dark, and although Jiang Qi had doubts about Xi Shan's attack on Mu Xishan, he knew that he could no longer press him at this time, so he left at the right time.After they left, Mu Xishan still felt unwilling when he thought about what happened just now.At this time, the door was knocked again, Mu Xishan thought that Jiang Qi had left and returned, and said in a bad tone: "I'm going to sleep already."

The cold voice outside the door said awkwardly, "I'm sorry to bother you."

Mu Xishan heard Jiang Feng's voice, and raised his voice to call people in. At the same time, he took an idle cloak from the shelf next to him and put it on his shoulders to cover the marks on his neck. After Jiang Feng entered the door, he saw Mu Xishan's clothes, and suddenly After a while, he continued to walk in, took out a tube of plaster from his pocket and handed it to Mu Xishan, and said in a slightly disappointed tone:

"You don't have to pretend in front of me. I saw the bruise on your neck just now. Did he do something to you again?"

Seeing Jiang Feng's forced smile, Mu Xishan lowered his eyes, shook his head, took the ointment and said, "Go back."

Jiang Feng opened his mouth. Facing Mu Xishan's face, it was difficult for him to say anything. Mu Xishan's marriage became a stone in his throat, making his voice dry, and he finally backed away in silence, pushing After the door went out, Jiang Feng stayed at the door for a long time, unable to leave. He had a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start.

Through the door, Mu Xishan heard Jiang Feng's indistinct voice intermittently.

"...Brother once said that he would not marry a wife, because he couldn't imagine living with a stranger. But he is willing to marry you, and he must have unusual feelings for you. He is a person who values ​​affection and commitment Man, if he accidentally hurt you, please forgive him... Eldest brother, he was not good at dealing with emotions since he was a child. Although he is calm and decisive when facing political affairs, he is not as good as a child when facing emotions, second brother I used to call him a boring gourd."

Mu Xishan walked over, opened the door and said coldly, "If you just want to talk about this, then you don't have to."

Seeing Mu Xishan's face again, Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment, then quickly looked away, looking at his feet, "That's not what I want to say."

Jiang Feng felt that the stone in his throat was getting heavier and heavier, which made him dry and even tingling, but he continued, "As a big brother, he can give you everything you want, and the second leader in the north Being human becomes your passport. What you are experimenting with, what you want to change, you can let go of.”

After Jiang Feng finished speaking, he lowered his head and left directly. This was the first time he was so rude in front of Mu Xishan.

And on this night, while Lei Ming hurried to the headquarters of the Southern Trade Union, Nana, who had disposed of the corpse, also returned to Base S and asked to meet Jiang Feng at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

Jiang Feng brought Nana into the reception room in the courtyard, and Nana knelt in front of Jiang Feng and said, "Please take me in, I am willing to serve you."

Jiang Feng raised his hand to make Nana stand up, "What are you doing?"

Nana shook her head vigorously, buried her head on the ground and refused to get up, "I did a crazy thing, and I was afraid of implicating my family, so I didn't dare to go home."

Jiang Feng asked Nana to explain clearly, Nana hesitated, and told Jiang Feng the detailed process. Jiang Feng was shocked by the cruelty, but Nana was still a young girl after all, and she began to be afraid after being impulsive, "Except you, I I can't think of anyone who can help me!"

"The evicted superhumans are missing, including the granddaughter of the union leader. This will inevitably arouse the anger of the union and implicate the city lord." Jiang Feng frowned. He did not allow anything that would endanger the city lord to happen.

Nainai fell on the ground and said: "I have heard that those with supernatural powers expressed their dissatisfaction with Lei Ming. I will disguise this matter as an internal conflict and push it to Lei Ming." Nana raised her head and carefully explained the plan, "I On the way here, I inquired about Thunder's ability, so I treated the corpse and the car with electric shocks, creating the appearance of being attacked by lightning, and then drove the car on the eye-catching road, when passing pedestrians found it , I will pretend to be a timid witness and accuse Lei Ming."

Jiang Qi didn't agree with these plots, but it was inevitable. He lowered his eyes and looked at Nana at his feet.

"Nai Nai, I don't need your loyalty to me."

A flustered expression immediately appeared on Nana's face, "Even you are unwilling to help—" Before Nana finished speaking, Jiang Feng continued, "I need you to serve the city lord."

Nainai looked up in surprise, Jiang Feng said slowly: "As a person in power, the city lord has too much benevolence. This is not only his shortcoming, but also his advantage." Jiang Feng does not intend to kill Mu Xishan's benevolence, but he can't just sit idly by Mu Xishan was bound by benevolence, so he said:

"From now on... I will be his eyes, guiding him in the direction, and you will be his sharp claws hidden in the dark, creating darkness for him that he cannot touch... Would you like to?"

"I will."

Nana chose to agree without hesitation.On the next day, when Mu Xishan saw Nana kneeling in front of him to express his allegiance to him, he didn't know that a new name appeared in the Holy Book Who's Who.

[Nai Nai, titled "Royal Cerberus", merit: the first and only female general in the history of the undead army, a dwarf alien, proficient in dark alchemy. 】
