"I'm so hungry......" Baili Xuanjing muttered in a low voice.

All of them were earthy-colored, barely in good spirits.

"Why are you so hungry when you eat food every day?" Baili Xuanjing said to himself, he didn't understand very much.

Since the last time he witnessed the palace eating people, he had stayed in this side hall for three days.

The daily food supply is still the same as for the previous ten days, and there is no difference.

But Baili Xuanjing is not as able to barely eat six or seven minutes as he did a few days ago. He still didn't feel enough to eat, and even starved until his stomach was twitching, and there seemed to be a black hole in his stomach that could never be filled.

Baili Xuanjing pressed his abdomen with his hand, which could relieve the burning pain in his stomach a little.

And Baili Jingyu had already fainted to the side, seemingly unconscious.

But he didn't even have the strength to care about her, and for a while, he felt very frustrated.

He was always noble and elegant, and such an embarrassed appearance was the first time he appeared on him.

It turns out that people are so hungry that they really can't think about anything, and they can't maintain the sense of luxury that they don't care about the world.

Those gentle and free-spirited temperaments are just the embellishments of the rich life that is not lacking in food and clothing.

Cheering up, he helped Baili Jingyu to sit up and let her rest on his lap.

"Jingyu, are you alright?" Baili Xuanjing gently pushed her shoulder with his hand.

Baili Jingyu seemed to notice something in her sleep, and her brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing that she seemed to be fine, Baili Xuanjing relieved his heart.

The glowing orbs of the palace shed a miserable white, illuminating the interior like a mass grave in the daytime, with a sense of horror and weirdness.

This aroused some fear among the already restless people, as if everyone was about to be tormented by this hunger pang to the breaking point.

There seemed to be a string tightening in the air, and a slight break had already formed in the middle of the thin place.

Suddenly, Baili Xuanjing remembered the woman in the gray cloak again.

Obviously, her figure is so thin, but she has a stable temperament that is unchanged in danger.

Baili Xuanjing thought, if she was here, what would she do at this moment?

Qin Manjing's departure, Baili Xuanjing only found out later. But they are only meeting in the water, and Baili Xuanjing is not qualified to care about the people who don't want to do it.

It's just a little pity, he originally had the idea of having one more person and more power.

Hungry and hateful, Baili Xuanjing's attention was always inattentive, and many memories flashed in his mind.

He raised his eyes and looked at the next hundred miles of Xuanmin, and saw that he was frowning, and he didn't seem to be very happy, so he had been resting with his eyes closed.

"Eighth brother, what's wrong with us?" He asked weakly, as if it were going to drain his whole body to sitting.

He couldn't support it, and his body was a little shaky, but he still dragged his strength and looked up at him.

Hearing Baili Xuanjing's voice, Baili Xuanmin didn't mean to open his eyes, but his lips moved slightly.

He explained with a very pale face, "That's the rule of this palace. ”

"Those who lose their minds will be eaten by the palace, and after that the palace will feed back into our stomachs."

"And once forcibly fed by the palace...... Then you will never be able to eat enough after eating other foods. ”

He pursed his lips. As he spoke, the torture of hunger made the veins on his forehead throb suddenly.

"The food in the side hall can only sustain us, but that blinding hunger will persist until ......"

“…… The next person who lost his mind and was swallowed by the palace appeared. He paused, and opened his eyes, which were like a pool of secluded water, and it was impossible to see the depths.

Baili Xuanjing's face suddenly became even paler.

Let others become nutrients to relieve their hunger pangs for a while.

He couldn't do it......

Baili Xuanmin also sensed that the hunger this time was menacing, far better than the previous hundredfold and thousandfold, and he almost lost his mind.

"Ah...... What are you doing? Suddenly, a frightened voice came from a corner of the palace.

The vocal line fluctuates greatly, and the tail note rises sharply.

Qin Zhenhe...... He's crazy. Someone screamed.

I saw that at this time, Feng Ping was lying in a pool of blood, with a dagger stuck in his chest, and the handle of the dagger was in Qin Zhen's hand.

"What are you doing, why did you kill Feng Ping?" Lin Wan sat beside him, his eyes full of horror, and he asked in a shrill voice.

Qin Zhen, Lin Wan, and Feng Ping secretly ran in the day before Qin Manjing entered the secret realm.

At that time, they had only heard that there was an elixir in the secret realm, so they wanted to come in and have a look with curiosity, but they didn't want to come in easily, but it was difficult to get out.

And now, Feng Ping is even dead, still at the hands of their own people.

Qin Zhen ignored the other people's questions at this time, his eyes stared at Feng Ping motionlessly, his eyes showing longing.

When Lin Wan saw Qin Zhen's appearance, he understood his intentions.

He dragged his body forward and kicked Qin Zhen away, "You are crazy, Feng Ping is our brother, you actually treat him like this." ”

Qin Zhen's motionless eyes were raised at this time, revealing a large area of whites of his eyes, and his expression was extremely terrifying.

"Feng Ping is just the son of a merchant, and his status is low. Just kill him and eat his flesh, and we will live. Don't you want to live? ”

Feng Ping's family really doesn't have any background, but they mess around together, and they can be regarded as friends after coming over for so long. How could Qin Zhen do such a cruel thing.

Lin Wan's face was angry, and he stopped in front of Qin Zhen, "Feng Ping is so good to you, how can you kill him casually regardless of your brotherly feelings." What about me? I'm also the son of a petty official, why didn't you kill me? ”

Qin Zhen glared at him coldly, "Don't worry, you'll be next." ”

Hayashi was so frightened by his horrific eyes that he took a half step back. But he stabilized his mind and still stood in front of Qin Zhen, protecting Feng Ping's body. He did not allow his brother to die without dignity like this.

"Giggle......" The weird laugh rang out again.

Not long after, Feng Ping's body turned into a white smoke and disappeared in front of everyone, and then Qin Zhen's lower abdomen swelled.

At that moment, he stroked his stomach with a pleasant satisfaction.

The palace seemed to have discovered Qin Zhen's intentions and chose to stand on Qin Zhen's side.

Why did Qin Zhen lose his mind but not be swallowed by the palace? Why was the dead Feng Ping devoured instead? Baili Xuanjing asked these two questions in his heart.

"Aiding and abetting." There was a high-pitched scolding from the side hall.

Suddenly, a burst of spiritual light flashed in Baili Xuanjing's mind.

It turned out that this was the case, it turned out that the palace was playing such a trick, and he only then understood.

It knows that normal people will not eat the same kind, so it maliciously intimidates, tortures, and seduces everyone.

It never wanted to eat anyone, nor did it want to kill anyone with its own hands.

Its interest is to watch humans kill each other.

Therefore, it only needs to be a guide and a witness.

As long as you tempt human beings into the abyss, and arouse the most primitive instincts of human beings.

Human beings will not be able to control their desires, and they will fight and eat each other.

I see......

Baili Xuanjing almost shuddered when he thought of this.

The thought of them being toyed with by something unknown made his heart beat violently, showing his master's horror at an unreasonable speed.

If this continues, if they do not die at the hands of the palace, they must die at the hands of their own kind.

"Don't be fooled by it, it's all about killing each other. If we really do what Qin Zhen did, we will only die faster. Baili Xuanjing shouted at everyone.
