Ziyi looked at Duanmu Xun suspiciously, but Duanmu Xun had a faint smile on his face: "It's just that I sent you to the desert." ”

"Look at me! It's all dark! Wushuang, you're really going too far! Where are you pies! You're clearly a liar—no, Ziyi, why are you with Wushuang? ”

Suddenly realizing something, Mu Beichen stopped his mouth suddenly, looked Duanmu Xun up and down again, and suddenly widened his eyes: Duanmu Xun!

Duanmu Kaoru took off the mask on his face, revealing that demonic handsome face: "En." ”

"Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in the palace? This-you-you-you are unequaled? Mu Beichen was a little incoherent for a while, and then, he looked like he suddenly realized, and said: "I'll just say why Wuhua Palace does things for the imperial court, it turns out that you are the palace master of Wuhua Palace!" By the way, this time, I'm here to deliver the news. ”

"What's the news?" Kaoru Duanmu raised his eyebrows slightly.

At first, he hid his identity from Mu Beichen, but because he was a different prince, he didn't know much about him.

But now, in fact, there is no need to hide this identity for a long time.

Although Beichen Kingdom looks glamorous on the outside, it is actually a mess on the inside.

The emperor of Beichen Kingdom gave birth to a total of eight sons, the eldest in his thirties, and the youngest was only five years old. Except for the five-year-old still innocent doll, everyone else has their own thoughts.

The eldest prince was made the crown prince, but his qualifications were very mediocre, and he had the help of his younger brother the sixth prince born to the same mother.

And the other princes also have their own masters.

All the people were eyeing the throne.

Mu Beichen is the seventh in line, and the reason why he left for a foreign country and didn't want to go back was just because he was too lazy to participate in the fratricidal war.

A few days ago, I heard that the five-year-old prince was poisoned, and although he was lucky enough to pick up a life, he was stupid for a lifetime.

"When I went to the desert this time, I found that the barbarians had prepared a lot of grain, grass, and horses in the depths of the desert. I wonder if the barbarian still refuses to give up. ”

"Barbarians?" Ziyi tilted his head and looked at Mu Beichen.

Why, she had never heard of it.

"The barbarians were the northernmost part of the Luodui Dynasty, and in the year of his accession to the throne, they took advantage of the turmoil in the imperial court to raid the Fallen Dynasty. At that time, the soldiers came to the city, and thanks to your emperor's clever calculation, you drove this group of people out. and pursued them with victory, and slew their leader. In the past few years, they have been very quiet, but they didn't expect that they would be in the desert! That kind of ghost place, but at any time it can be swept away by the wind and sand or swallowed by quicksand. This group of people is really crazy. Mu Beichen turned his head and pouted, looked at Duanmu Xun, turned around and said to Ziyi.

"Heh—no matter how many times they come, the result will be the same." Kaoru Duanmu didn't seem surprised at all, and didn't even change his face.

Ziyi looked at Duanmu Kaoru with a smile, and didn't understand where his confidence came from.

But-

She just liked the way he looked.

"We have another problem now."

"By the way, when I came in just now, I saw a man lying in the doorway - I thought I stepped on him for rushing too fast - it should be okay, right?" After saying what was in his heart, Mu Beichen suddenly remembered such a thing, and opened his mouth with some hesitation.

"It's okay, that's what I'm talking about." Duanmu Kaoru shook his head, sat back on the bed, pulled Ziyi who was standing aside into his arms, gently wrapped his arms around Ziyi's waist, and said, "There is an evil spirit here, but we can't find him for a while." This evil spirit has killed people, but the government has set its sights on us—"

"Evil spirits?" Mu Beichen frowned, "What evil spirit?" ”

"It's the dead people, the unwilling souls, who come back to make trouble." Ziyi opened his mouth and tried to describe it in words acceptable to Mu Beichen: "It's like the last time I saw it in the Shaolin Temple—"

"That-" Hearing Ziyi's words, Mu Beichen's face turned green, he hesitated for a moment, and continued: "That, I remembered that Beichen Kingdom still has something to go back to-"

"Mu Beichen, you have no righteousness! Beware of your evil spirits! Seeing Mu Beichen fleeing like oil on the soles of his feet, Ziyi jumped down from Duanmu Xun's legs angrily and yelled at the already small figure.

Cai Zhutou didn't know when he woke up, and left quietly.

There was no one in the inn at all, only a few purple clothes remained.

It was already dark, Yintong was sent to prepare for food, Ziyi and Duanmu Kaoru sat in their room, changed the medicine for Duanmu Kaoru, and suddenly there was a sound outside the door.

A large number of men and horses, carrying torches, surrounded the entire inn from afar.

Archers can also be seen in the distance.

And that Cai Zhutou was wrapped like a zongzi at this time, and was carried by four people, just behind the crowd.

Standing next to Cai Zhutou was a young man who looked to be in his twenties, judging from the official uniform, he should be the magistrate here.

"The people inside, come out obediently and tie your hands, otherwise we will release the arrows!"

"Kaoru." Ziyi didn't pay attention to the individuals outside the door, but Duanmu Kaoru was still injured at this time, and several people hadn't eaten for nearly two days, so she was worried that Duanmu Kaoru's body would not be able to bear it.

"Don't worry." Duanmu Kaoru smiled at Ziyi, walked out of the room indifferently, and knocked on the door of Mo Tong next door.

Mo Tong opened the door, and An Ning was sitting at the table, looking much better.

"Do you want to go?"

"Yes."

Mo Tong nodded slightly, at this time, they didn't have much energy to deal with the people outside, and it was night again, they were afraid that there would be another murder.

The four people looked at each other, and with a wave of their wrists, the figures of the four people disappeared into the night.

At this time, someone is still in the kitchen, fighting against the firewood!

The firewood in this broken inn is not even dry!

Silver Pupil squatted in front of the stove and lit a fire for a long time, except for being blackened by smoke and coughing violently, there was nothing to gain.

When he heard some noises and wanted to go out to take a look, he found that there were puffs of smoke rising from outside the inn.

That Cai Zhutou actually ordered someone to release an arrow with fire.

The arrow struck the door, and in an instant a raging fire ignited.

Silver Hitomi realized that something was wrong, and hurried to the second floor, trying to tell those individuals to flee quickly.

However, when he reached the second floor, he found that the group of people had long since disappeared.

Let's say that as soon as Mo Tong waved her hand, Ziyi only felt that the scene in front of her was changing rapidly, and when she paused, she found that they were already standing in the alley last night.

There was still a faint smell of blood in the alley, and there were still mottled blood stains on the ground.

And the group of men with arrows were in the distance, and everyone's eyes were on the inn.

"Where's the silver pupil?" Ziyi suddenly realized that there was one person missing, but when he saw that the group of people suddenly began to fire arrows at the inn, he couldn't help but feel anxious in his heart, and was about to rush out, but was stopped by Duanmu Kaoru and Mo Tong at the same time.

"Don't worry, that guy can handle it himself. Let's go in and see if there will be any clues here. There was a smile in the corner of Motong's eyes.

The kid with the silver pupil is the most talented one of the descendants he has ever seen, and now that he can mix with Ziyi and Duanmu Kaoru, his ability should be much stronger than before.

If you can't even deal with such a trivial matter, then it is better to die in the fire and save him in the future.

Ziyi looked at Mo Tong, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, and the four of them flashed into the house behind them.

The bloody smell in the room was still very heavy, the dried blood stains had turned black, there were still hairs on the ground, and the purple clothes shivered. The small hand tightly grasped the sleeve of Duanmu Kaoru's shirt.

She didn't see any spirit here.

But think about it, presumably the souls of these people have long been eaten by the Miscellaneous.

"Anning, can you feel anything?" Mo Tong looked at An Ning, his eyes flickering.

"Well, I can feel a little bit of Xun'er's breath." An Ning's eyes lit up, she did feel the smell of Xun'er here-

Could it be that Kaoru's soul hasn't completely disappeared?

"Heh-I know, how is it, can I follow the taste?" There was a smile in the corner of Mo Tong's eyes. If that Kaoru really could communicate with snakes as An Ning said, then this woman would definitely not be mortal.

I'm afraid that the misty sucked Xun'er's soul but still needed to trick An Ning into capturing the living for him, because he hadn't completely digested the soul.

If this is the case, then Kaoru will definitely not be willing to be swallowed up, and there will be some clues left.

"Yes!" An Ning nodded, sniffed hard, and led everyone out of the house and towards the west.

Following the smell, An Ning stopped in front of a house in the northwest corner, which was only two hundred meters away from the room just now, but it was the same as that room, there was also a faint smell of blood, and there were also traces of black-brown spots on the ground.

"Could it be that this is another place?" Ziyi frowned, here, she still couldn't feel any soul body existence.

Not just those who died, but even ordinary ghosts didn't have the breath.

It's so clean, it's like it's just been cleaned.

"This [harmonious] state is just eating people's souls, why do you want to do such a cruel thing!" Ziyi's hand slammed against the wall, but was intercepted by Duanmu Kaoru's big hand halfway.

Duanmu Kaoru frowned slightly, with some blame in his eyes, but his voice was very gentle: "It's useless for you to hurt yourself, we have to find a way to subdue him, otherwise, more people will be killed." ”

An Ning followed the faint breath left by Xun'er, and led everyone to the third house, which was still the same, bloodstained.

Finally, when An Ning stopped at the fourth house, several people were slightly stunned.

This is the same place where I found the maze yesterday.

"Hmph, I didn't expect this guy to play such a game with us, and he came back here after going around and around." The ink pupil's eyes flashed, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.

"You-who are you! Ahh

Suddenly, there was the exclamation of the fat woman from yesterday in the door, but the exclamation stopped abruptly in the middle of the door.

"Oops!" Ziyi's heart was in a hurry, and he rushed to the door.

Duanmu Kaoru and Mo Tong couldn't hold her back this time, so they had to watch Ziyi rush into the gate, and then followed.

It's just that when I entered the room, I couldn't see the figure of Ziyi.

"Purple! Purple! Duanmu Kaoru's good-looking brows were tightly wrinkled, and he looked around, but he couldn't find the figure of the purple cloth everywhere.

"Follow me, the purple clothes are here." An Ning sniffed and took the lead in rushing towards the second floor, but was stopped by Mo Tong.

"Don't run around, there's something wrong here."

The black hair of the ink pupils suddenly became windless, and a ghostly light flashed in those dark eyes, and in just an instant, the picture in front of everyone's eyes was suddenly split, and the purple clothes were lying outside this picture at this time, three meters away from them.

Duanmu Kaoru didn't move, just looked at the purple clothes in the distance from a distance, and a strange feeling surged in his heart.

"Heh-I didn't expect this guy to have so many floors." A silver dagger was pulled out of the ink pupil's sleeve, and a cold light flashed, and the picture outside the screen was slashed out of thin air.

The two layers of space suddenly cracked, and countless fragments scattered in all directions.

Duanmu Xun didn't hide, and Mo Tong only had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but An Ning subconsciously hugged his head with both hands when he saw those fragments flying.

The fragments pierced through the bodies of several people, and eventually vanished into stars.

The room is still the same room that I came from yesterday, and the stairs are still the stairs I just saw, but here, there is still no figure of purple clothes.

"Second floor." Mo Tong snorted softly, and the three of them quickly ran towards the second floor.

As soon as Ziyi entered the house, she found that something was wrong with the room, she didn't dare to move, but she waited left and right and didn't see Duanmu Kaoru and a few people follow up. When she looked back, she realized that the door behind her had disappeared for some time.

A smile crossed the corner of her mouth, this kind of trick to deceive children, she had already done something inappropriately.

Walking around the house, all the doors and windows leading to the outside world were gone. After a careful investigation, for a while, Ziyi really couldn't find a way out.

is not in a hurry to break this illusion, Ziyi simply sat on the ground.

Since the Maze had invited her here, she wanted to see what could be more terrifying to be done in this [harmonious] state.

It's false to say that she's not afraid in her heart, after all, she's the only one now, but she believes that Duanmu Kaoru will definitely find her.

Sure enough, after a short time, she felt the air fluctuations in this illusion space, and the scene in front of her suddenly shattered like a broken mirror.

There was a sound of "kick and tap" footsteps at the stairs, Ziyi stood up, looked at the three people who came up with a light smile, and said softly: "I didn't expect you to be so fast." ”

"Be careful!"

Behind Ziyi, the fat woman yesterday was holding an arm-thick iron rod in her hand at this time, and the iron rod was raised high, ready to swing at Ziyi's head.

Duanmu Xun frowned, let out a low snort, and a purple light flew towards the woman.
