The garden at night is stunning.

The sparkling fireflies flickered and shone in the dark night, and the flowers bloomed in the moonlight, and the air was mixed with the smell of dew and flowers, which smelled very good.

Tian Li finally understood why in fairy tales, why princesses like to dance in the garden.

If she hadn't been in a hurry, she would have liked to go inside and have a good look.

With fireflies and moonlight along the way, the road doesn't seem so dark. On the east side, there is a long row of low houses, each of which is tightly connected, and the windows are closed, and there are lights shining through the edges of the wooden doors, so that you can see that there should be people inside.

Tian Li wondered if the other eight male teammates would live here.

She looked at Zhang Xincheng, and the other party should obviously be suspicious. Seeing Zhang Xincheng shake her head, Tian Li dispelled the idea of knocking on the door.

"Let's take a look at the back." Zhang Xincheng whispered.

Tian Li looked behind the low house, and there were several separate huts in the distance, but there were no lights, and it was pitch black behind the door.

The huts in the back were built separately, with their backs to the woods, and the moonlight was hidden in the clouds, and there was no light shining on them, which seemed a little seeping.

Tian Li followed Zhang Xincheng and leaned towards the hut together.

Zhang Xincheng tentatively shouted, "Xiaoling, are you in there?"

The next moment, there was a rustling sound in one of the huts.

"It's... Sister Xincheng? A female voice came.

Shen Linling is really here.

She was locked up in the penultimate room, the windows of the cabin were barred and the door was locked, and it looked like a place for prisoners.

Shen Linling cried at the first sight of Zhang Xincheng, "Sister Xincheng, it's so dark here, when can I go out?" ”

Seeing that the girl had a faint tendency to cry, Tian Li hurriedly "shh

Hearing this, Shen Linling held back her tears, sobbed and shrugged her shoulders, and held back her crying.

It's no wonder that Shen Linling is scared, a girl who is only fourteen years old, when she has just entered junior high school, will be involved in this death game.

Facing Shen Linling's tearful gaze, Zhang Xincheng said seriously: "Xiaoling, if you stay here for a few days now, my sister will beg Mrs. to let you out as soon as possible."

It seemed that with Zhang Xincheng's assurance, Shen Linling wiped her tears, and her expression was not so scared.

"Sister Xincheng, can you stay with me for a while? It's so dark here, there are rats and bugs in the house, and I'm scared. ”

"Okay", Zhang Xincheng replied warmly. She looked sideways at Tian Li next to her, "Ali, it's not too early, do you want to go back and rest first?"

Then he added, "I'll rush back tomorrow morning to call you."

"It's okay, I'm not that tired, I'll stay with you."

The cold moon was no longer obscured by the clouds, and the moonlight poured down, and the surroundings were much brighter. Tian Li remembered something, she asked Shen Linling behind the door, "Xiaoling, did you eat at night?" ”

"No.."

In fact, she didn't eat much for lunch because of the cold and hard bread, and no one brought her food when she was imprisoned.

Because she was too scared when she was caught, her hunger was not so heavy, and now when she was asked by Tian Li, she began to be hungry.

"I still have some food here, that's all, you can eat first."

Tian Li handed her a piece of bread and a piece of ham meat from outside the iron bar.

"Thank you... Thank you, Sister Ali. ”

Although it was still the black and hard bread that the servants ate, it was not so difficult to swallow with a slice of ham.

Tian Li retracted her gaze and found that Zhang Xincheng was looking at her.

She coughed lightly and gave Zhang Xincheng another piece of wrapped ham meat in her pocket.

Well, she originally wanted to keep it for herself to secretly improve the food.

Zhang Xincheng didn't answer, and she didn't ask Tian Li where this thing came from, after all, there was no ham meat in the maids' food, but she refused: "Thank you, I'm not hungry."

"Let's have a bit." Tian Li directly forced the ham into her hand, "You can't eat bread for a month." ”

Zhang Xincheng was silent for a moment, her heart was mixed, she looked at Tian Li seriously, and said, "Ali, thank you."

Tian Li was about to say something, Zhang Xincheng's expression suddenly changed, and she made a "shhhh

Tian Li also noticed it, as if there were footsteps coming towards them.

Zhang Xincheng's eyes were sharp, and after years of vigilance, she realized that it was not safe here, and she made a mouth gesture at Tian Li.

Walk –

There was no time to say goodbye to Xiaoling, so the two could only leave in a hurry. Zhang Xincheng took the lead in front, and Tian Li followed lightly.

It was impossible to go back the way they came, and along the way they had traveled, the two of them circled around the castle for a long time. Tian Li is a road idiot, and the only thing she relies on now is Zhang Xincheng.

Zhang Xincheng walked very fast, and Tian Li needed to trot from time to time for fear of falling out of the team. Turning around, Tian Li saw rows of low houses similar to those on the east side of the ancient castle.

They're finally back here.

However, the number of patrols has also increased.

Tian Li is not good at exercising, and her calves are a little tense after long jogging. The two passed by a corner, Tian Li couldn't help but stop, leaned against the wall and whispered, "Xin Cheng, can you slow down."

Zhang Xincheng had already walked to the opposite side at this time, and the two were separated by a fork in the road.

"There's a lot of patrolling here, and we're almost in front of the garden, so let's go there and take a break."

Hearing this, Tian Li gritted her teeth and insisted, got up and walked to the opposite side.

"Who's in front!"

A cold sound came not far away, Tian Li was in the middle of the fork, her body stiffened, and she already felt that something was wrong in her heart.

"Run!"

Hearing Zhang Xincheng's voice, Tian Li ran away, followed by the scolding and footsteps of the man behind.

Don't shout at this person in the back!

Tian Li prayed in her heart.

"Come on, come on!" The man in the back shouted as he ran.

Tian Li: "......"

As soon as they shouted, the people patrolling the road also heard the sound, and many people rushed here to surround the two.

Zhang Xincheng ran to an intersection and then retreated, and there were also people patrolling the intersection in front of him; There was not much left for the two of them to escape safely.

"Ali, we have to separate first, you run to the right, I'll lead them away." Zhang Xincheng said as she ran.

"Then be careful!"

The road Zhang Xincheng pointed to was a slender path, very dark and narrow, I didn't know where it led, Tian Li quickened her pace, she turned sideways, and plunged into it.

The small trees planted inside grew crookedly, the branches were intertwined and complicated, and Tian Li was even shaved by the branches when she was running.

But luckily, after she came in, there was less of a chase behind her.

Zhang Xincheng is agile, and Tian Li only hopes that she won't have an accident.

Unconsciously, Tian Li walked out of the path covered with thorns and vines, and her vision became broader. She dragged her tired body aimlessly, and when she looked up again, there was a small room standing in front of her.

The ghost made the gods, Tian Li wanted to come forward and knock on the door; She felt that if there were people in the house, they should not be bad people.

This feeling is getting worse and worse. Until she walked to the door and reached out and knocked on the closed wooden door.

Tuk Tuk Tuk –

The door opened in a few moments. A beautiful girl came out from behind the door, and the room behind her was shrouded in orange lights, and the girl's face could be seen clearly under the light.

The girl was fair-skinned, beautiful, her golden hair was tied up high, and although she was dressed in the same maid clothes as Tian Li, she still couldn't hide the fresh and refined temperament of the girl.

At the same time, Tian Li's ear back came with a prompt sound of [Ding Dong-], and then the sound of the system sounded;
