Chapter 123: Clearing the Clouds and Seeing the Fog (3)

The man looked suspicious at her, but he still looked unhurried, and he looked at the faint light that was fading away from the sky. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"Brother Tai, do you really believe in the so-called male pet?" He asked.

Duan Chengcheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "I didn't say that, this is what you said......

The smile on the man's face froze for a moment, but he cleverly covered up the past, and in a blink of an eye, it was still a warm smile, and he said, "Brother...... What an interesting person. ”

“……”

Duan Qingcheng was speechless, he was the most interesting person, right?

She glanced at the man expressionlessly, but inexplicably felt that this person was a little funny, and kept pretending to talk to herself, she really didn't want to pretend that she didn't know anything.

However, this person was a little difficult for her to see, and the seemingly innocuous smile on his face seemed to hide the sharp edge of the knife. She was curious about his true identity, and perhaps, he was more than just a scholar.

"Brother?" When the man saw that she didn't speak, he thought she was distracted, so he cautiously called out to her.

"Don't call me brother Tai, my name is Duan Qing, what's your name?" She was really not used to him talking to her with the poor etiquette of a scholar, so she took the initiative to ask the other party's name.

When the man saw her so happy, his eyes flashed with a little surprise, and at the same time, he was also very happy to report to his home, "Under Li Yi." ”

"You seem to be very good at observing words and feelings, and it seems that you have done a lot of homework before entering the palace." She looked at the scholar-like person in front of her and became a little interested in him.

After all, he is the one who can guess the truth hidden behind the incident, and among this group of white-faced students who entered the palace together, he is indeed different.

"Brother Duan has won the prize." When Li Yi heard her, a trace of shame flashed on his face, "It's just that I have doubts about this matter, but I can't get out......

"What if there's no way out." Duan Chengfeng glanced at him lightly, and the confusion in his eyes just now suddenly disappeared after meeting this person.

She raised her eyebrows slightly, turned around and walked back, raising her hand and patting the man's shoulder as she passed him, "If you come, you will be safe, this is what you said." ”

Li Yi was slightly stunned, a little surprised by her move. But thinking about what she sent back, I had to smile, "That's right...... right."

He just didn't expect that what he said would be returned to him by others, which is interesting.

During the day in the main hall, he felt that this Duan Qing was different from others, the aura that was above everything always gave people a mysterious and unpredictable feeling, such an excellent and mysterious person was difficult to ignore, and it was no wonder that the emperor would be particularly interested in him when he faced the saint during the day.

At this time, Duan Qingcheng didn't have the heart to guess Li Yi's thoughts, and after the two of them returned to the inner hall one after the other, the sky officially sank into iron-like darkness.

In the evening, two eunuchs brought meals, and after everyone had eaten dinner, they began to fall asleep inexplicably, for no other reason, and those meals sent at night were drugged.

Only Duan Chengcheng and Li Yi felt something strange, and they didn't eat water and rice from beginning to end, and the two tacitly glanced at each other, and at this time, the two eunuchs from before came back to take away the food box.

Li Yi wanted to get up and run away, but saw Duan Chengcheng gently shaking his head at him and signaling him not to move, so the two of them quietly lay on the table and pretended to sleep.

After the two eunuchs finished packing their things and leaving, Duan Chengcheng got up to follow, and the white-clothed shadow disappeared into the night in a flash.

"Huh? Brother Duan, where are you going......" Li Yi shouted in a low voice, but saw that she had chased out of the hall in clothes like the wind, and completely ignored his meaning.

He had no choice but to continue to sleep. Although he felt that something was wrong, but in the deep palace, he understood that at this time, he often chose to lie dormant in a low-key manner, and it was the best policy to wait and see what happened.

On the other side, Duan Chengcheng followed the two hurried eunuchs to the outside of the Cold Moon Palace, where there was a faint person, dressed in black and shadowy, hidden in the night, unable to see the specific appearance.

"What's going on inside?" The figure in black asked, his voice low and hoarse.

One of the eunuchs bent down and replied, "If you go back to your lordship, you will all fall, and your lord can deal with it with confidence." ”

"Yes." The black-clothed figure answered coldly, then raised his hand, and nearly ten shadows suddenly appeared beside him out of thin air, as if waiting for his dispatch.

"Move the people inside where they need to go." The black figure whispered an order, and the shadows received the order and poured into the Hall of the Cold Moon to carry out their mission.

With such a mystery, where are they going to take this group of people?

Duan Chengcheng, who was hidden on the pillars outside the hall, had a bad feeling, although he couldn't see the appearance of the person who gave the order, but with the murderous aura on his body, Duan Chengcheng knew that he was the black-clothed guard who followed the emperor during the day.

And the Shadow Guards under his command are not bad at kung fu. She didn't bring a knife with her when she entered the palace, and if she started to do it at this time, the threat should not be underestimated.

She quietly followed behind those people, went around and around, passed through three hidden palace alleys, and then came to another long-abandoned mansion.

The two secret guards turned the two old candlesticks for worship several times, and the stone door hidden in the wall slowly opened, and there was light inside, which seemed to be a hole in the sky.

One after another, the shadow guards carried the unconscious people into it, and the last person to be brought into the door was Li Yi, who saw him look around with his eyes slightly open, and in an instant he disappeared into the stone door, and then quickly closed the door together.

Duan Chengcheng crouched in the dark and observed for a moment, but did not stop it, and only when she noticed that there was no one around, she dared to fall to the ground.

Walking towards the dusty altar in the center of the side hall, she was already even more puzzled in her heart, it was normal for such a hidden place to exist in the huge palace, but the sneaky behavior of these people was too unbelievable.

What made her even more puzzled was what these gods and gods wanted to do here?

Needless to say, the answer she wanted was behind this cold wall, what kind of world was hidden behind it......

The mechanism in front of me are these two rusty candlesticks. She stretched out her hand, but before she could touch the candlestick, a knife whistled at him.

Frightened, she dodged away from the candlestick, and the sword slashed down at the right wall, and the hall was immediately filled with smoke and dust.

"I advise Your Excellency, don't walk around in the inner courtyard of the deep palace, otherwise you will lose your life......" A hoarse and deep voice came, with a chilling coolness.

Duan Chengcheng was startled by the sudden attack just now, she retracted her mind and looked up, only to see that the black-clothed guard standing beside the emperor during the day had stepped into the hall at some point, holding a long knife, and a pair of slender and gloomy eyes tightly locked her movements, like a hunting black eagle.

A sneer appeared on her lips, "I advise me to accept this sentence for the time being, but now that the matter has come to this, I don't think you will spare my life easily, right?" ”

"You are a very smart person, since you are so smart, it is impossible for you to enter this palace city for no reason......" The black-clothed guard stared at her, "Who are you and what is the purpose of entering the palace!?" ”

"Many people have asked me this question, and I have answered it countless times, even if you ask me 10,000 more times, my answer will not change." She replied word by word, and her momentum was not weaker than that of the other party, "My name is Duan Qing, just an ordinary person, as for why I entered the palace, this is also what I want to know, and I also want to know why I was selected to be sent to the palace......"

"You're not ordinary, just reach out and you'll know......," the black-clothed guard smiled disdainfully, and he raised the bloodthirsty knife in his hand, "If you win the knife in my hand, maybe I'll tell you why!" (To be continued.) )
