Chapter 40: Fear of the Dark
Because of her own abilities, Calamus's life is always accompanied by pain, but this is the first time that the pain has penetrated so deeply into the bone marrow. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info she closed her eyes, desperately trying not to let herself scream, but her body couldn't help but tremble, her heart was screaming, struggling, it hurt, and her arms were also heart.
This time the wound healed slowly, and the blood flowed out enough, about half a bowl. Ning Yun turned around and replied, "Patriarch, today's amount is enough." Ning Tian waved his hand and said, "Let's stop here today, and come back tomorrow to get it." As he spoke, he got up to leave. Ning Yun should be, following in Ning Tian's footsteps, blowing out all the candles in the dungeon. When he left, he turned around and secretly glanced at the calamus, and before Ning Tian noticed, he walked away quickly.
At this time, the dungeon was a dead silence.
No! No! No! It's so dark!
Suddenly, it was as if a huge hand had grabbed Calamus by the neck, making her unable to breathe, and a powerful coercion smashed on top of her head, and she seemed to be drowning, her whole body trembled, her hands and feet curled up and convulsed, and the great fear enveloped her, almost pinching her into a ball.
She's afraid of the dark, and always has been.
She has lived in darkness since she was born. Her mother left her in the dungeon, and she looked at the dancing candle flames, and was stunned day after day. Her mother treated her very well, she wore luxurious clothes, and fiddled with priceless jewelry, but she could not get a ray of sunlight, so she did not know when she had this problem of being afraid of the dark. What a noble status, what a luxurious life, who did this noble palace give happiness and whose wings were broken.
When she was young, because of her perennial closed life, her complexion was pale, and her hands and feet were weak. Sometimes when there is a grand event in the palace and the harem is small, the mother will secretly allow the grandmother who takes care of her to change her into the clothes of a little palace maid and take her out for a walk. The little sunshine has accompanied her through endless nights one after another, and now that she thinks about it, she will be happy about it.
She was so scared, her whole body trembled, and tears suddenly slipped from her eyes:
"Yanmei...... Where are you......"
She finally uttered the first words in the dark. At this time, the calamus, like a wounded deer, curled up in the corner: "Yanmei...... I'm so scared......"
She choked and cried, and suddenly she couldn't help herself, and her face was pressed against the damp stone wall in the corner, I don't know if it was the moisture on the stone that wet her face, or her tears, which smeared the stone.
"I'm so scared....... I'm afraid of the dark....... Where are you....... Can you save me....... Come and save me....... Cheyenne, you bad guy....... I'm so scared...... I'm so scared. She stretched out her hands towards the darkness of nothingness, groping desperately: "Yanmei, where are you!" ...... I can not see you! ....... I can't see you, Yanmei, I'm so scared I won't see you......"
She cried like a child, she wanted to say, Yanmei I can't hold on, I miss you so much.
――――――――――――――――――――――
Xia Yanmei's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
At this time, he and Bai Su, Bai Qi, Ji Mingsi, and Liu Ran were rushing to the place where the calamus was. Bai Su used the power of the academy to quickly find out several residences of the Ning clan in the capital. In terms of these few pillars of incense, Yanmei still disliked Bai Sucha for being too slow, jumping up and down and almost demolishing A-Yuan's room. Ah Yuan had a good temper, and he also sat aside and sighed, worried about the calamus, and worried that the delicate things in his room would be smashed by Yanmei.
"What's wrong?" Ji Mingsi saw that Yan Mei's face suddenly turned pale and covered his chest, and asked. "Nothing." Yanmei shook his head: "Probably because I ran too fast." "Be careful, don't force yourself too hard." Ji Mingsi instructed. "Nature." Yanmei nodded.
Yan Mei suddenly had a trace of uncontrollable panic just now, like swallowing a boiled egg, all the emotions choked in his throat, choking him so much that he couldn't even put his heart. Without the iris by his side, he is like a beast without its sharp teeth, a bird without its beak, he is in a hurry, he has no clue, and he can't do anything.
"Yanmei, you can't panic," Bai Su suddenly said on the side: "If you panic, someone will panic even more."
"I see." Yanmei lowered his head and said solemnly.
Although except for the academy, the major families have not been able to settle in the capital, and the academy has become more and more declining in recent years, the royal family and descendants are thin, and the development of the major families is somewhat uncontrolled. Not only in the fiefdom like the emperor of the soil, but also set up eyeliner and rudder throughout the capital, although the first emperor Jiying had the intention to control, but in the end it was gone.
Now the Ning family's rudder in the capital has as many as three places. Xia Yanmei deliberately divided into three groups and went separately, but Bai Su felt that they had not reached the level of being alone, and now they dared to go in pairs, and they could only go into the mouth of a sheep. While they were arguing, a faint purple qi suddenly floated from a distance and flew around them.
"What is this?" Yanagi asked.
When Xia Yanmei heard this, he looked at it, and it turned out to be a small wooden carving insect the size of a fingernail, which was extremely exquisitely made, and if he didn't look carefully, he couldn't tell that it was carved by a person, and the wings were as thin as cicada wings, with faint lines on it, which looked like blood vessels, but was actually a spell.
Several of them looked vigilant, keeping their distance from the little worm.
Strangely, the little worm didn't bother with them too much, just flew a few steps forward, stopped in place, and circled up and down.
"It seems to be leading us." Bai Qi said: "Where to lead us, trap?"
"Ren is the trap is also going to go," Yan Mei said urgently: "I am very panicked, I always feel that something is going to happen to the calamus."
Ji Mingsi said: "Me too." He and Calamus are twins, and the feeling is even stronger: "I even feel that there is another me, stripped away."
The few of them exchanged glances, and Yan Mei said: "Calamus is like my life, I am going anyway, and you don't have to take this risk for her."
Ji Mingsi punched him in the shoulder and said, "Why do you always steal the limelight of my brother, don't pretend to be more anxious than me."
"Naturally, I'm going to go, if Ilamus doesn't come back, A-Yuan will cry." Bai Qi raised his eyebrows and said.
Liu Ran also said: "Calamus is my friend."
The four of them knew the firmness of each other's hearts, looked at each other and smiled, and looked at Bai Su in unison. Bai Su was stunned for a moment, and said, "Let's go, what are you doing in a daze."
Yan Mei looked at everyone gratefully, reached out and patted Bai Su's shoulder. "Don't cry," Bai Qi exaggerated: "Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting."
"Fuck you," Yan Mei scolded with a smile: "Lao Tzu won't get rid of that golden bean, it's better to save people quickly if you have time to talk here, don't drag me back when you go." He straightened his cuffs, said with a cold face, "Let's go."
As soon as the words fell, the figures of the five people chased after the wood worm, and disappeared into the dark night like ink.
