Text Volume 1_ Chapter 609 Late night in the Forbidden City
The flickering light in front of the palace tower floated from far and near, up and down, like a person holding a lantern in his hand, upside down, this description is really not wrong at all, because the flickering light is indeed a lantern, and it is indeed carried by someone walking over.
"Hmph" Han Shushu and Cao Haoran's faces suddenly turned pale, and a tingling sensation extended from the soles of their feet to their heads, and their scalps suddenly exploded, and layers of goosebumps appeared on their bodies.
Carrying the lantern, it is the palace maids in the deep palace courtyard of the Qing Dynasty, who seem to be quite young, wearing typical harem costumes, wearing a heavy headdress on their heads, and stepping on wooden flag shoes under their feet.
This is a whole team of palace maids, led by a lantern followed by seven people, the pace is the same, the frequency of hand swinging is also consistent, the head is held high, the expression is dull, the skin on the face is like a white wall, there is no variegation.
Cao Haoran looked down at the bottom of the team of palace maids, and after taking a closer look at it through the faint light of the lantern, his head completely exploded.
"There is no shadow, they have no shadow"
This is common sense, everyone knows that no matter whether it is day or night, as long as it is a person, it has to be revealed by the light, and if a person can't see through the shadow, then there is only one possibility, and the ghost has no shadow.

Han Shushu had already gritted his teeth with fright, and his face was pale, and he reached out and grabbed Cao Haoran's arm and cried and said, "What to do, what to do, it turns out that the legend is true that there are really supernatural events in the night of the Forbidden City, think of a way, they are coming this way"
At this time, Han Shu's intestines were repentant, regretting his willfulness and impulsiveness, and paying the price for his curiosity, just this scene scared her half to death, and her heart had already reached her throat, if she was given another chance to choose, Han Shushu would definitely choose to follow Coaster back to Tsinghua.
The team of palace maids walked straight towards the three of them, walking neatly and getting closer and closer to them, Cao Haoran said calmly, "Let's go, let's go quickly, they are coming"
"I, I want to go too, but my feet can't move," Han Shushu said with a sob.
"I, I can't walk anymore," Cao Haoran then collapsed.
Both of them had weak feet and could not take a step.
The team of palace maids and the three of them happened to be facing each other at this time, and suddenly, Han Shushu and Cao Haoran noticed at the same time that the eyes of the palace maids seemed to be looking at them in unison, and even a feeling of looking at each other arose.
"Go away" At this time, Cao An, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly opened his mouth and scolded the palace maid who came over, "Go away, stay away from our courtyard"
"Hmph" Cao An's words fell, and the team of palace maids actually turned their heads away at the same time, and then turned their bodies in a different direction and walked past them with lanterns.
When a palace maid walked past the three of them, Cao Haoran and Han Shushu didn't dare to turn their heads to look at them at all, they could only glance at them lightly with their peripheral vision, they were so close that all the details could be seen clearly, these palace maids looked more real than those actors dressed up on TV, as if they had traveled to the Qing Palace.
After a few moments, the maid carrying the lantern walked away, and then disappeared.
"Huh" Han Shushu and Cao Haoran breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, feeling that the clothes on their bodies were getting soaked, and the sweat of the two of them had already soaked their clothes in a few minutes.
After coming back to his senses, Han Shushu glanced at Cao An, who was indifferent, and said, "Actually, I am much more interested in him now than in the Forbidden City."
"My brother, it's like a hundred thousand whys, it's too intriguing" Cao Haoran sighed irritably, and then asked, "Do we still want to go inside?" I think I should go back the way I came."
"Uh-huh, uh-huh, let's go, let's go" Han Shushu nodded busily, she didn't want to stay in it for a moment.
"I can't get out, that place is sealed," Cao An immediately interjected beside him.
"What, what's not going to get out? Can't we go out again from where we came in?" asked Han Shushu in a cold sweat, gritting his teeth.
"I can't get out, I'm sealed" Cao An repeated what he had just said.
"No, why? Can't you go back the way you came, just get out if you get in," Cao Haoran said a little anxiously.
Cao An continued to shake his head, shaking quite firmly, Han Shushu pursed his lips and said, "Believe him, I think it should be right to believe him in the Forbidden City."
"Hey, what else should I do" Cao Haoran frowned and asked, "Brother An, can you tell me why you seem to have your head opened when you encounter this kind of thing, you rescued your grandfather from Old Man Wang in the village, this time in the Forbidden City, you seem to know a lot of things, what is going on?"
"Huh? I don't know" Cao An thought about it, and suddenly felt that his head was a little headache and seemed to be about to explode, he covered his head with both hands and said with a little pain, "I just feel very familiar, as if I knew it before, I can also feel that there are many things around us in this place, everywhere, everywhere"
"Huh" Cao Haoran and Han Shu, who had just recovered, turned white again, and the two of them looked nervously left and right and said, "It's everywhere?" Where? Brother, don't scare us."
Cao An suddenly stretched out his finger, pointed behind Cao Haoran and said, "Oh, there is a thing wearing a robe and a high hat behind you, very close to you."
"Huh" Cao Haoran jumped up directly and hugged Cao An, and said with a sad face, "Brother An, I beg you, okay?" You just know it, don't say it, it's so infiltrating."
Cao An stretched out his hand and waved it out of thin air, and said lightly, "Get out of here, stay away from us"
Cao Haoran was stunned for a moment, stiff and didn't dare to move.
Han Shushu swallowed his saliva and said, "I felt a little cold just now, but now it seems to be much better, really"
Half of the feeling of Han calligraphy and painting is psychological, and the other half is that just now behind her and Cao Haoran, there was indeed a eunuch in a clear suit who came out, holding a Buddha dust in his hand, who could be sixty or seventy years old, and his face was pale and stood less than a meter behind them.
At this time, if Cao An returned to normal, he would have to think that the Forbidden City in the middle of the night would be a little interesting.
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
