The Imperial Palace of the Lotus Kingdom, the Palace of the Goddess.

It was past midnight, but the smoke and rain lying on the bed tossed and turned, and it was difficult to sleep.

It had been a few hours since she returned to the palace, and although she had drunk a lot of wine at the dinner held by the Holy Lord without regrets and for her, the goddess and the empress dowager, she still did not feel the slightest sleepiness.

Because the northwest disaster relief and the handling of the plague crisis have spread all over the country, in just one day and one night, the cause of the outbreak of the plague was found out, and the spread of the plague was stopped in time, which can be regarded as the most talked about thing in history.

It can be regarded as winning face and the hearts of the people for the royal family, so Jun Wuregret is also very interested, and leads the ministers to frequently toast to the Queen Mother to show praise and respect.

Originally, the Empress Dowager Yanyu could have declined, or let Phantom Lotus do it for her, but she did not refuse to come, and every time she did it first.

Obviously, she was drowning her sorrows with wine, and she just forced a smile to participate in the dinner party that was worthy of celebration for others, but in fact, for Yanyu, although she successfully resolved the plague crisis, she couldn't be happy.

As soon as Meng Ling, a good sister, died, it hit her hard. Second, she always felt that this plague crisis was only superficially resolved, and the real crisis may not have yet arrived, but it was only a matter of time.

The reason for this is that the Langyue Wollman Blood Demon that made her uneasy, to be honest, she didn't know exactly what was going on with that blood demon, because there was no detailed record of this blood demon in the goddess's mask.

Just used a very short text to solemnly remind all the goddesses of the Langyue Wolman clan, that is, once the blood demon is born, it must avoid its edge and retreat fifty miles as soon as possible to show surrender, otherwise it will harm others and oneself, and bring disaster to the country and the people.

The mask only implies that the goddess and the blood demon are both unblasphemous gods of the Langyue Wollman clan, although the Tao is different and does not conspire with each other, but they cannot kill each other, as long as they always maintain a distance of more than fifty miles, they will be fine.

But this is only an expedient measure, if you want to completely solve this grievance, you must find a divine sword in ancient times - the Green Bamboo Heavenly Sword.

It is said that in the hilt of this sword, an ancient legend is sealed, and only by reading this legend can we solve this mystery that has been left for thousands of years.

And if you want to know the whereabouts of the Green Bamboo Heavenly Sword, you must first find the long-lost treasure of heaven and earth - the Tower of Babel.

This Tower of Babel is a sacred object that Yanyu has always dreamed of, but it is a pity that it has almost been obtained, but it is still missed.

So with this regret and unwillingness, Yanyu can only anesthetize himself with alcohol at the dinner, so that his mood can be a little better, and he hopes that after getting drunk, he can sleep well, maybe he will wake up tomorrow and start a new day.

Helplessly, it has been nearly two hours since I returned to the dormitory, and even the first time I entered the palace, the excited Yao'er fell asleep, and the smoke and rain still couldn't sleep peacefully, tossing and turning, nightmares, and I would be awakened after squinting for a while, and after waking up, I was sweating profusely, and I didn't feel sleepy at all.

She didn't know what she wanted to do, what she could do to get a good night's sleep.

Looking at Yao'er who squirmed around her, smiling, and talking in her dreams, she sometimes really envied Yao'er, who was only eight years old, and thought that maybe only childhood could live carefree.

When she thought of her childhood, she felt even more helpless, that is, her childhood was completely ruined by those fifteen years of ice.

Because after she was born in Yanjia Village, she fled to the ruins of Liansheng Country with the whole village for only a few months, and a strange thing happened that had been frozen for fifteen years, so that the happiest and ignorant childhood of many normal children was erased for no reason for her.

By the time she woke up, she was already an adult.

After that, he came to the imperial city, met Meng Ling, and was sent to the palace by the people of the Five Poisons Sect together, and then experienced a series of unbelievable things, and finally died in prison.

It's just that she shouldn't be killed, and she was inexplicably resurrected in the royal cemetery of Liansheng Kingdom, and by chance she became the goddess Empress Dowager, a girl who has just come of age, but she has to play an old lady who has lived for thousands of years every day, and who can understand and understand the bitterness of this.

What made her even more helpless was that the only saint she had in her heart, that is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, did not meet her, but regarded her as an enemy who killed her mother, and traveled away from the sad place of the palace.

When she thought of Jun Buyu living alone and sadly in this complex and crisis-ridden world, she felt heartache, she really wanted to be by Jun Buyu's side, accompany him to relax, accompany him to travel all over the Lotus Kingdom, even the unreachable Lotus Immortal Kingdom, she also wanted to accompany him to go back and see.

However, all of this is really far away for her now, so far away that every time she thinks about it, her heart hurts inexplicably, and it hurts so much that she can't breathe.

Since he couldn't sleep, Yanyu simply got up, put on a simple and light clothes, came to the door of the dormitory, and told Phantom Lian to take care of Yao'er, who was sleeping soundly, saying that she wanted to go out for a walk, relax, and sober up.

Phantom Lian can also understand this, if she didn't have to take care of Yao'er, she would also want to accompany Yanyu to go out for a casual walk.

It's just that it's midnight after all, and the temperature is low, so she deliberately brought another cloak to Yanyu and put it on her, and after sending the Empress Dowager out of the Goddess Palace, she also deliberately quietly told the four royal guards of the Goddess Palace to follow the Empress Dowager all the way, so that she can take care of and protect her.

And the four royal guards also respectfully promised that they would swear to protect the safety of the Empress Dowager to the death, so that Phantom Lotus could rest assured.

Because these four royal guards told Phantom Lotus that their hometown happened to be in the northwest plague outbreak area, so this time it was equivalent to the goddess Empress Dowager saving their family and children, how could they not take this opportunity to repay the favor.

Hearing what these four royal guards said, Phantom Lotus was also relieved, and only after she couldn't see the back of the Empress Dowager did she return to the dormitory to protect Yao'er.

I don't know why, every time Phantom Lian sees this Yao'er, she has an indescribable sense of crisis, she doesn't understand what is wrong with her, and she is inexplicably afraid of a little girl who is only eight years old.

It stands to reason that she also likes children very much, and she should like a girl like Yao'er who is smart and well-behaved, but since she saw this little girl for the first time, she has an indescribable sense of vigilance.

It seemed that this girl would harm her, and she was also very distressed about this, thinking that she had been too tired lately, and her mind was a little too nervous and tired, so she became like this.

She thought that maybe she would get better after a while, after all, this girl was so liked and loved by the Queen Mother, there should be something likable about her, and she was also a poor girl who deserved to be loved.

Her father and mother unfortunately passed away in the northwest plague outbreak area, and she is so young, lonely, helpless, and has no guarantee of survival, how can she harm people.

Besides, Phantom Lotus asked herself if she and this girl had never known each other before, and she didn't have any holidays, so what reason did the other party have to hurt her.

Then there is Meng Ling's death, and Phantom Lian feels that it was also a pure accident, and it is not the fault of this little girl, so there is no reason to blame Yao'er for this.

Therefore, Huan Lian felt that she must have been too careful, and told herself that she would never have such strange thoughts in the future, and that she should treat this child well, which could be regarded as helping the Queen Mother share her worries.

After that, she stayed by Yao'er's bedside, thinking about it, but she was also a little sleepy, and finally fell asleep on the bed.

Originally, if Meng Ling was there, she and Meng Ling would have taken turns on the night shift to take care of Yanyu and still have a rest, and they would not fall asleep during the vigil.

But now that Meng Ling is gone, the other newly transferred palace maids are not familiar with the living habits of the Empress Dowager, and unlike her and Meng Ling, they are both from the Golden-crowned Black-tailed Frog Kingdom and can help Yanyu protect her secret identity, so Phantom Lian would rather work hard herself and take care of the Empress Dowager Yanyu herself.

It's just that she just rushed back to the palace from the Northwest Plague Outbreak Area, and accompanied Yanyu to the dinner party in the evening.

That's why I fell asleep on the side of Yao'er's bed.

Just after she fell asleep, she didn't notice that one of Yao'er's fingers began to turn red again, and then slowly cracked, and a rancid and foul-smelling smell of dead corpses gradually emanated.

The reason why this is the case is because Yanyu went out for a walk, and as long as this Yao'er is not accompanied by Yanyu, she will gradually turn back into a corpse.

If you want to solve this problem, you can only keep it for a while if you suck a living person again.

Maybe it was the cracking of her fingers that woke Yao'er up, she sat up suddenly, and when she saw that the Empress Dowager was not there next to her, but Phantom Lian was lying on the bed guarding her, she knew that it was broken.

However, to her rejoice, the Phantom Lotus in front of her was asleep, otherwise if the Phantom Lotus saw the abnormality of her fingers and smelled the rancid smell, she would naturally be suspicious.

However, her current situation is also very urgent, that is, she must immediately find a living thing to suck ** blood, otherwise the further she goes, the more rotten places on her body will be, once the Empress Dowager returns, or Phantom Lotus wakes up, she will completely expose herself as a monster who possesses the corpse of a girl.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly got out of bed quietly, and wanted to directly suck the essence blood of Phantom Lotus and get rid of her, but after thinking about it, there were only two people in this dormitory, she and Phantom Lotus, once Phantom Lotus had an accident, she would be easily suspected.

She can't say that she saw a monster sucking the essence blood of the phantom lotus in the palace with her own eyes, this is the first time that Meng Ling will not be doubted, but if she does this again and again, it will inevitably attract the attention of people who have a heart to her.

Besides, she will often have to do this in the future, so she has to find a more secure way.

So, she thought about it, came to the back door of the dormitory, saw that there was no one, and climbed onto the roof in an instant, like a wild cat, and quickly crawled towards the other palaces without realizing it......
