97. Get lost
Zhuyue's footsteps suddenly accelerated, and in the blink of an eye, he was more than ten meters away from Dye Qing, and he was almost unable to see clearly in the darkness. Dye Qing hurriedly sped up to keep up, feeling a little puzzled why this maid suddenly walked fast.
When she walked to the arch, she suddenly disappeared Zhuyue's figure, and she was suspicious in her heart, and she had a premonition that something might happen.
Raise your voice and call softly: "Zhuyue? But no one answered.
Suddenly, someone pushed him behind him, and he was defenseless, so he rushed forward, fell headlong into the arch, and heard the sound of the door closing and then locking behind him, and hurriedly turned around, but found that the arch really had a door closed, and when he pushed it, he couldn't push it open. shouted angrily: "Zhuyue, what are you doing?" ”
Zhuyue's voice sounded outside the door: "Niangniang forgives her sins, and the slave maid also acts according to orders." The voice was flat, without any emotion, and then the footsteps departed, and there was no sound outside the door.
Dye Qing smiled bitterly, and took precautions, but he was still conspired against, and he knew that there was some unknown danger in this place. There is not a single palace lamp here, and it is pitch black all around, so you can't see what is in front of you. Looking up at the sky, she got up at the end of the day, and this toss has been at least more than half an hour, which means that at most one more hour, the sky will be bright.
Then let's wait until dawn.
Night can cover many things, especially dangers, and people's eyes can become very blind when they cannot see. Running around at this time will only weigh other people's hearts, Zhuyue said that he was ordered to act, whose order was it? Dowager? She is from the Queen Mother's Palace, can it be so obvious? If something really happened to her, all the spearheads were pointed at the Queen Mother, and she felt that there might be something strange about it.
The Queen Mother is very deep, and she doesn't look like a person who will take things on herself. So who would it be if it wasn't the Queen Mother? If this is the case, the enemy is in the dark, she is in the light, and things seem strange and terrifying.
After tidying up a little, she also calmed down a lot, she is such a person, the more difficult she gets, the calmer she becomes. Because she always understands one thing, a disturbed mind can't help herself at all, and only wisdom can make it possible to survive in a desperate situation. He didn't move half a step, but sat on the ground at the door behind him, leaning against the door panel, but his mind did not dare to slack off, and his ears were pricked up to listen to all the changes.
There is a night breeze blowing, but it may not be cold, thinking that before leaving the dormitory, Hanyu was worried about putting on a cloak for her, and she joked that the weather was starting to get hot, where else did she need a cloak. I wonder if Hanyu will go to Ningde Palace to find her after waiting for her for a long time and not returning? But on weekdays, she is often left by the Queen Mother until noon, and if she really finds out, it may be very late. And even if Han Yuzhen went to Ningde Palace, to the extent that the Queen Mother didn't like herself, would she send someone out to look for her?
Laugh and laugh at yourself, or don't be too delusional.
Finally, the sky began to slowly brighten, and I gradually became blue and could see, silently observing the situation around me. At first glance, the place looks like a palace, but it doesn't look like a garden, but it's surrounded by walls. The inner courtyard of the palace is full of gorgeous dance steps and grace, but this place seems to be independent of the palace, and it is like another world.
If you want to say desolate, you can't talk about it, there are many flowers and plants in the eyes, if you want to say gorgeous, but there is no majestic and magnificent pavilion, you can see the corridor in the distance. What is this?
Dye Qing got up from the ground, turned around and looked at the door behind him, it was not an ordinary wooden door, it was black and shiny, and he pushed it with all his strength, and it was very firm. On both sides of the door were green plants climbing up, like creepers, firmly entrenched in the wall, and the high wall was at least three people high, and she could never have climbed over it.
Suddenly, my eye was drawn to a small wooden sign on the wall next to the wooden door, behind the greenery. She wrapped her hand around her sleeve and gently opened the plant, and three words were engraved on the wooden plaque: Divine Beast Garden. The words seem to have penetrated hundreds of years of time, and they are old and mottled, but they are still handsome and powerful.
This place should not have been to it for a long time.
Sacred Beast Garden? A faint light flashed in his mind, and such a passage slowly appeared in his memory: According to legend, there is a Zhenguo Divine Beast in Dongyun Kingdom, which looks like a lion, but its body is not as burly as a lion, and it also has wings. It is kept in captivity in a forbidden place, where there are many ferocious animals, and every day it lives in fear, for fear that one day one day it will be devoured by other animals if it is not careful.
This is what he said to Qin Tiance many years ago, when he first met her, she thought he was using this story to imply herself, and she remembered that she also asked stupidly, "Is there a divine beast in this world that looks like a lion but has wings", is what he said at the time true? What kind of beast will there be here? And this place is a forbidden place?
After hesitating for a while, he couldn't see any animals, and he strengthened his courage and walked forward. Since there was no way behind her, she could only move forward, the dense flowers and plants and the rows of big trees, and the gaps between the flowers and trees, the light seemed to be impenetrable, revealing a trace of depth. I looked closely at the flowers and plants at my feet, and the flower bones were very small, and the shape was similar to that of a plum blossom, but it was not as big as the petals of a plum blossom.
Dye Qing felt a little strange, could it be that this purple city really came from the purple east, even this little flower is a delicate purple, only with a smear of black in the middle, purple and black are not the best match, but the flower is so inspiring. The shadow is beautiful, among the green grass. She didn't know what kind of flowers she had, so she carefully avoided the flowers and walked along the stone path in the middle.
Gradually, there are more and more unknown flowers, and all she sees in her eyes is this purple-black, and a gust of wind blows from nowhere, some flower clippings gently swirl on the ground, and the dandelion-like plants in the grass next to her, with this gust of wind, bursts of dark fragrance fly in the air, she immediately held her breath, she was in an unknown place, she had to be careful everywhere, even a small mistake, she might face danger.
But this feeling is a bit like suddenly and unintentionally breaking into a sea of flowers.
The more I walked, the more frightened I became, how big is this garden? The stone path seemed to have no end.
Suddenly, a roar came from the quiet space, what was this sound? Dye Qing's face changed, and he followed the sound to look into the distance, but he froze. What is that?
Blinked, blinked, blinked, still there.
It was a giant animal flying in mid-air, its head really resembled a lion, and its whole body was golden, but it had gray wings on its back, and it looked like it was nondescript, but it was so powerful and sacred. This is an animal species she has never seen before, and the Dongyun Dynasty really has a so-called divine beast!
The divine beast suddenly looked at her with its eyes, and when she looked at Dye Qing from a distance, she felt that something was wrong, and immediately turned around and wanted to run, but when she turned around, she almost fainted with fright, what about the road? The road he had just walked was as if it had been torn apart by something terrible in an instant, leaving only the endless sea of flowers, deep purple with a bewitching black, so weird......
There is a beast in front of you, and there is no way back, what should I do?
Try her best to calm her mind, she can't mess up, she knows that there is no illusion, it is impossible to run out of way, there must be a maze in this place, and she has no intention of breaking into the maze, when she walks all the way into this sea of flowers, the space behind her may have been silently transferred, she is careless after all.
But even if she is careful, how can she return to heaven in the face of such a situation?
Standing and waiting for death is not her character, there is a distance from the divine beast, and it does not immediately fly over to attack it, but stares at the ground under it, and her mind moves slightly, what else is there?
Gritted her teeth and walked forward, if there was only one way ahead, then she could only move forward.
Slowly, getting closer and closer to the beast, its eyes looked at her from time to time, but it made a mournful sound, and when it looked closely, the beast seemed to be injured, and there were blood stains on its wings. Is that why it doesn't attack her?
Walking further, suddenly the sea of flowers moved in front of her, cutting off her way forward, so she stood in the circle of a few meters in a square inch, and at this moment she understood, the mechanism was on the stone slab under her feet, and it was possible that which piece she stepped on would touch which piece of the sea of flowers moved. If so, then there must be a mechanism that could open the path again, but she didn't dare to try it, because she didn't know if there was any other danger hidden under the stone.
A scream pulled her thoughts back, and her eyes moved to the place where the beast was again, and finally found something unusual, it turned out that the beast had been looking down at the open space under her body. And in the center of the clearing there was a little beast whimpering, the little beast's hair was also golden, the lion's head and face, and a pair of very small gray wings on its back, looking at this situation, the little beast should be the child of the divine beast, it turned out to be a female beast.
What surprised Dye Qing even more was that the two divine beasts seemed to be in distress, and they were attacked, because countless golden snakes were climbing around the clearing, surrounding the small beasts. Obviously, the little beast can't fly yet, can't fly up and run away like its mother, and the big beast wants to save its child, but it may have been bitten by a snake, but it refuses to leave.
At this time, thinking back, the divine beast that had just flown in the air didn't want to attack fiercely when he saw it, but faintly asked for help. It can be seen that it has seen humans and thinks that humans will help it, which means that someone will come to this place!
Dye Qing suddenly thought that if the Dongyun Dynasty regarded this animal as a sacred beast of the town, it would definitely not let them destroy themselves here, did it mean that this garden was actually guarded by special people? And what about the caretaker, where is he? As soon as this thought came to her, she was filled with hope, and she thought that maybe she would be saved.
Suddenly, Suo Suo's voice rose, and Dye Qing looked at the empty space of the divine beast, and his face turned white with fright. Out of nowhere, a giant python suddenly appeared and swam towards the middle of the clearing, and the other golden snakes gave way one after another.
Everything has a king, and it is clear that the python may be the king of these golden snakes.
