The three men present all froze in place as if they were frozen. A cry of grief to the apex suddenly pierced the sky. "There's only one way to do it." Zhou Hui looked at the completely dark Yinlu Palace with blood-red eyes, his hands trembled uncontrollably, and he asked Shen Luo in a hoarse voice: "What way?" "Fall asleep." Fukara replied succinctly, "All those who fall asleep are dreaming, and we should have used this method to dive into the dream realm and see what happened to them." "Why didn't you use this method in the first place?!"

"This kind of peeping into people's hearts is very expensive, and there is no certainty. At the same time, there will be many people and animals dreaming, and it will be difficult to pinpoint the dream we need. If you get lost, it's not easy to come back. ”

Li Zesi was silent beside him, until Shen Luo turned his gaze over: "Our soldiers are divided into two ways, one person and His Highness catch monkeys in the palace, and one person sneaks in to see what happened." Brother Chu, you can pick one. Li Zesi raised his head: "I chose to dream." "He has no other choice, and if there is a physical altercation in reality, Shenluo is undoubtedly a better candidate for protection.

"But somebody has to be ready to wake me up." "Absolutely. We went to the hall, where there were still the last people who weren't asleep. However, to their surprise, a more suitable candidate appeared just as they arrived in the hall. Wenwen took two personal bodyguards and a maid to the Drinking Dew Palace. Zhou Hui has not been to Wenfu for the past few days, and Wenwen said to the following at the beginning, this can be regarded as a clean ear. But soon, she was a little restless, because not only Zhou Hui, but also Shen Luo did not come, and the lonely aristocratic life in the past seemed to have returned to her side. The palace maids of good deeds sent a message to her that they might have caused some trouble in the Drinking Dew Palace. Boredom mixed with worry, Wenwen decided to leave for dinner to drink Lu Gong, thinking that at least he could use the excuse of eating to meet the trio.

But when she successfully used her identity to come to the gate of the Drinking Dew Palace, she found that the door was actually hidden, and the lights were obviously scattered. The soldiers patrolling the palace were mainly to avoid the invasion of foreign thieves, and they knew nothing about the changes in the palace. With curiosity, Wenwen and his entourage pushed open the palace gate and walked towards the only hall with lights. They were met by a distraught trio. In Wenwen's eyes, Zhou Hui's face had turned pale, and green tendons protruded from his forehead and neck. And the first time King Wu saw her, his expression almost collapsed: "Why are you here?!" Get out now! ”

There was anger in his tone. Wenwen was startled, it was the first time she heard Zhou Hui speak like this. Shen Luo grabbed King Wu's arm to calm him down, and opened a warm smile as usual: "Wenwen, don't leave when you come, do us a favor, okay?" Li Zesi looked at Shen Luo with an expressionless face, and his heart was clouded. He looked at Wenwen suspiciously, and then at Zhou Hui, who was almost abnormal, and weighed it repeatedly for a long time, and had to admit that Shen Luo's current approach was correct, not only to prevent Wenwen from going out of the hall and encountering danger and falling on the way home, but also to find someone to help him, so as to avoid being caught in the process of falling asleep - after all, the original attendants and maids, their nerves were about to collapse with fright.

"Anyway, that's it. You just need to wake Li Zesi up when something is wrong. "So, what's wrong?" Li Zesi took the question: "I will call you." "When he dreams with secret techniques, Li Zesi can also speak, and correspondingly, if he encounters an accident in the dream, is injured or frightened, it will also be faithfully reflected in the body. He hid the latter point. "Whatever happens, if I don't call you, don't call me."

Wenwen suddenly asked, "What if I can't wake up?" Li Zesi took a deep breath: "You don't have to care. "The dreams of these sleepers may contain murderous dangers. If you can't wake up, you have to resign yourself to fate. Compared to this, his task is much more terrifying than that of Shenluo. But Li Zesi had already put this out of the way, and his current strength was not enough to protect King Wu in a foolproof manner. He can only do what he can. If you sacrifice, you can still do it easily.

Although Wenwen subconsciously felt that Shen Luo didn't tell her the truth, looking at the chaotic hall, the frightened crowd, and the solemn three, he felt that this operation must be of great significance. So she also raised her face seriously, and said to Li Zesi very seriously: "If there is danger, just call Wenwen. Don't worry about shouting a long list of honorifics. Li Zesi was stunned for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay." After Shen Luo and Li Zesi had finished preparing for their dreams and lit countless fragrant incense, Li Zesi lay on the floor in the middle of the hall, with a hastily patched blanket under him, and he closed his eyes.

Shen Luo and Zhou Hui packed up the items they needed and prepared to step out of the gate again. Wenwen stood up suddenly, and first stopped Shen Luo: "I bet you are safe and sound, you can remember it for me." Shen Luo's beautiful face smiled warmly: "I will definitely deliberately suffer a little injury, and come back to let you lose money and ask for wine." Wenwen turned to Zhou Hui again, but after a long time, he only said one sentence: "You...... Be careful. Zhou Hui had mixed feelings in his heart, but he only bowed slightly, indicating that he heard it. The two men stepped into the night without looking back. Li Zesi heard their footsteps gradually disappearing, and Wenwen's footsteps came back after half a day, he took a long breath, and then he concentrated on meditation, letting the surrounding aroma work, his eyes gradually became dim, and his consciousness seemed to float gently.

By the time he was grounded again, it was already a foggy white earth. He walked forward for a long time, but he still couldn't tell the way, and everything around him seemed to look the same, floating with a thin white mist that was strong enough to block his view. Where is he? Whose dream is this? He didn't know. During this time, there are countless dreams that travel through the world, overlapping each other but not interfering with each other, and each dream is a brief time and space. It was filled with the whispers of the night, the phantoms of the day, and the heavy nothingness everywhere. Is it just going to go down like this? Li Zesi felt that his feet were covered with dew-like moisture, but he firmly believed that the culprit who caused countless people to fall asleep this time would definitely not let him walk around like this.

He will come to himself. On both sides of Li Zesi, strange pictures gradually began to flash, but they seemed extremely faint and fleeting. A long time ago, when Li Zesi was learning to dream with his master, the scene he saw was completely different from now, when countless scenes were as turbulent as the tide and as dense as the flow of people. Is there something that affects people's dreams? Why do they all look like they've been diluted? Li Zesi was in confusion when a dark shadow flashed in front of his eyes. The shadow ran swiftly along the misty avenue. Li Zesi followed without hesitation, using his fastest speed.

I don't know how long I ran, but the shadow gradually disappeared at the end of the field of vision. Before Li Zesi could be disappointed, it reappeared at the speed just now and ran towards it quickly. When I got closer, I realized that the shadow was running on all fours, so fast that I could barely see the movement of my legs. It ran in front of Li Zesi's eyes in the blink of an eye, suddenly stopped, raised its head, and looked at the latter curiously. Li Zesi looked down at it: it was really a monkey!

It has a narrow red face covered in hazel hair, but its buttocks are bare, and there is nothing. At this moment, its eyes were cautiously looking at Li Zesi, with no eye sockets or frightened eyes—all of which indicated that it was a domesticated monkey specially used for street play. Sure enough, are the monkeys just illusions in dreams? But why did anyone see it in reality? Li Zesi's heart was full of suspicions: Could it be that this monkey is the perpetrator of the big sleep? He tried to chase the monkey away with his feet, but the latter shrunk his neck and deftly avoided it. At the same time, he straightened up and stretched out his little furry hand. …… This is...... Want to eat?

Li Zesi hurriedly shook his hand, which meant no. But before he could react, the monkey jumped on top of him, its sharp claws scratching at his thigh, and then turned and ran. The claws pierced through the pants and skin, cutting deep through the muscles, and blood suddenly oozing out. Li Zesi screamed in pain, and then saw that the monkey had already run two steps, stopped and turned around, and the ugly little face seemed to be smiling triumphantly. Li Zesi gritted his teeth and chased after him.

Wen Wenqing, who was waiting for him in reality, saw clearly that Li Zesi suddenly convulsed, and a position in his thigh slowly became blood red. However, his features were twisted together in pain, and his eyes were still closed. Wen Wen Huoran stood up and was about to shout, but he held back stiffly, and the mood that was just vaguely uneasy just now instantly escalated into panic. But she tried to calm down and instructed her men: "Bandage him." ”

At this time, Zhou Hui and Shen Luo had already patrolled half of the corridor and found nothing. They lit the lamps at any time as they walked, so as to ensure that the palace was brightly lit and that there were no dark corners. Everywhere they went, however, there was silence, and the corpses of rats and other animals lay under their feet from time to time, but they could not hear the slightest movement of flies. Not only flies, but also cockroaches that are inexhaustible on weekdays, and ants that smell the corpse, there is not half of them. Everything was quiet, almost dead.

Only Zhou Hui's heavy wheezing sound kept coming. He must be about to explode. Deep Luo thought. On the way forward slowly and vigilantly, Zhou Hui suddenly said in a low voice: "I can't lose my mother. He didn't look back, and Shen Luo could only respond in the same volume: "I know." "In their eyes, I am probably a dispensable embellishment, but only the queen mother has ever told me that I am the most important thing to her in this world." They should be referring to fathers and brothers. Shen Luo only continued to answer: "I know. "If she's gone, where am I going?"

Shen Luo was slammed into his heart by this sentence, and he was speechless for a while. King Wu is not a child who is valued by his father, ranking fifth, his mother's family is just an ordinary nobleman, and he has no talent for the national economy and people's livelihood, and his personality is very loose, and he prefers to spend his life in music and painting than the competition of his brothers. Such a person, even if someone likes him, they won't take him too seriously. His father occasionally summoned him because he could tell jokes and gossip that had nothing to do with the country; The brothers occasionally received him because he was basically completely harmless, but he was very good at the decoration of the house.

They only think of him when they are bored, and when they do serious things, they leave him behind. His brothers, even when they were trying to form a faction in order to succeed to the throne, subconsciously forgot about him. In this sense, Zhou Hui is a very lonely person. The only person who really needs him from the bottom of his heart is Zhou Hui, Concubine Ji. He has his own space in Shenluo, and Wenwen is usually very happy, Li Zesi ...... Who knows what he's thinking? There is only Concubine Ji, and she can almost be said to have nothing except Zhou Hui. No matter what time she is, she will always think about her son, wholeheartedly, without any distractions, and without asking for anything in return. In the cold palace, the mother is like a warm torch, always lit for King Wu.

So, he can't lose his mother, no matter what. Because then he really wouldn't have a place to go back. Therefore, the lights of the Drinking Dew Palace must not be extinguished! Shen Luo closed his eyes in the dark, and when he opened them again, he had already activated the emerald owl eye—he would not let King Wu lose his only relative, he promised. Shen Luo let King Wu go and turned to the front of him, looking at the latter in the middle and nodded, easily snuffing out the lamp they were holding. And turn the corner in front of you, and you're in the kitchen. It is also the location of the last incident.

Zhou Hui obviously raised his vigilance, he grabbed the sticks and beast nets in his hands, and his steps were very light. The ground had been cleaned the next day, leaving no signs of a fierce battle, and the pets and rats were not dead here, and everything seemed calm. But because of the sudden popularity of lethargy, there were no lights, and everything was as dark as ink. However, unexpectedly, when they turned the shadow wall, they found that there was a faint light flickering in the kitchen that should have been dark and deserted. Zhou Hui and Shen Luo saw the light at the same time, and before they could inform each other, the light went out again at lightning speed.

Someone in there? Shen Luo didn't even bother to talk to Zhou Hui, his body had no wall to enter, and he sprinted along the wall with an unbelievable speed.
