Chapter 178: Shadow and Waste

When Ning Shi, who was in Qingzhou Mansion, accompanied She Wan'er to find the imprint of the landscape map, the Jinqiu Palace, which was in a corner of the Luoyang Imperial City thousands of miles away, happened to be extinguished.

The name of Jinqiu Palace is good, but in fact, there are no nobles and little masters, but it is a gathering place for palace maids and eunuchs.

At this time, the time has almost come to an hour, and the entire imperial harem has gradually entered a state of drowsiness, those who do not need to keep vigil have already fallen asleep, and those who need to keep vigil just take shifts.

Because tonight is the Lantern Festival, there are also some self-organized lantern programs in the palace, in order to enjoy those little masters who can't leave the palace.

The imperial dining room is next to the Autumn Palace, and there is a dark room on the right hand side of the dining room, and there is a wine cellar under the room, where most of the fine wines commonly used in palace banquets are stored.

The wine cellar needs to be kept full at all times, if it is in time for a special day, the consumption is too great, you need to make up for it that night, and tonight is just the day to replenish the wine.

Wang Fugui is the nephew of the imperial kitchen in charge of the imperial dining room, and because of this relationship, he won the errand of tonifying wine on the shelves.

Crossing the imperial dining room, touching the bulging money bag around his waist, Wang Fugui hummed a small song, held the last small jar of aged Hantan incense with one hand, and walked towards the wine cellar crookedly.

The darkroom is deep.

To get down the cellar, you need to climb a wooden ladder.

Wang Fugui is naturally familiar with the way, and he will not get lost with his eyes closed.

Probably because of the worship of the Imperial Diet Winery, Wang Fugui was in a surprisingly good mood and was very interested, and even the little song he hummed was a little more flavorful: "You don't need to mention the dragon and phoenix, and you don't have to talk about the marriage, just keep your appearance, and get into my brother's careful field, sweet and sweet, sweet and sweet......"

The wine cellar in the imperial dining room is naturally very large, and there is only Wang Fugui alone at this hour, and the echo effect of the voice is excellent.

Ugh.

Ugh.

"Huh?"

"Who?"

"Who's there. ”

"Come out for me, this is the imperial dining room, steal chickens and dogs in the middle of the night, watch your head. ”

Wang Fugui vaguely heard some strange movements in the depths of the cellar, and didn't dare to confirm what it was, so he subconsciously roared first, in fact, most of them were to strengthen his own courage.

There was no response.

It's still moving.

Patiently listened to two more sounds, as if something was rubbing against the ground.

Wang Fugui's heartbeat suddenly accelerated a little, and cold sweat broke out from the palm of his hand, after all, it was Zishi, at this time, in this place, it was pitch black, and it was really a little infiltrating.

If something really happens, no one will hear you crying and fainting.

Probably scared, Wang Fugui hurriedly took out a fire fold from his trouser pocket and blew it a few times.

Nope.

I blew hard a few more breaths.

This is how the whole cellar is illuminated.

Wang Fugui is a full-time person who manages this place, no matter what is going on, he must check it clearly, and he can't make any mistakes when he does an errand for the royal family, so he will lose his head.

Holding back his fear, he narrowed his eyes and looked seriously into the depths of the cellar.

In addition to the wine jar is the wine jar, there is nothing else, Wang Fugui put his heart down, let out a long breath, and slapped the corner of his mouth lightly: "People are scary and scared to death, and scaring yourself is even more scared to death, something that is not productive, royal land, what is there to be afraid of, and there can be monsters." ”

After speaking, he muttered to himself: "In the future, I won't be able to make up wine in the middle of the night, this is too infiltrating, is it true that Jinqiu Palace has ever died?"

"Phew!"

"Crow's beak!"

Wang Fugui scolded himself twice, then put the old Hantan incense on the wine shelf, ready to leave, he didn't want to stay here anymore.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable. ”

"Buddha bless. ”

"There is no Amitabha Buddha in the south. ”

Wang Fugui muttered a few words, and then began to climb the ladder, probably when he turned around, a dark brown shadow appeared behind the wine rack for no reason.

Immediately afterwards, the dark brown turned into a thick jet black.

In a breath at most, the shadow climbed up to Wang Fugui's heel in a zigzag step, and when Wang Fugui lifted his leg and climbed up, the shadow stretched out a strange fangs at the same time.

An ankle ache.

Wang Fugui only felt a wave of sourness and numbness hit him quickly: "What is it?"

Subconsciously raised the fire fold and looked at his feet.

When the fire fold crossed the air, Wang Fugui's eyes also widened, and at the same time showed an expression of fear beyond measure.

He swore that he had never seen such a horrific picture in his life.

The dense wine racks are full of thick black, and there are countless shadows.

The dark shadows kept changing shapes, like people and non-humans.

And then.

The shadow suddenly burrowed into Wang Fugui's body.

An abrupt scream came from the depths of the underground cellar, but in the dead of night, no one heard it, and no one would have thought that the little guy in the imperial dining room was no longer the little guy he once was.

Meantime.

In the opposite corner of Nan'e Palace, deep in the palace maid's side hall, there is a hut that is still lit in the middle of the night.

A palace maid in a green dress said to the people around her while walking: "This room was originally empty, but recently, for some reason, the little master of my family has to move here, and is obsessed with painting and writing here. ”

"The little master used to love painting?"

The palace maid shook her head: "The little master never touched the pen before. ”

When something goes wrong, there must be a demon.

I saw the silhouette of a long-haired woman by the window in the brightly lit hut, looking at the posture and painting. The main door of the room is slightly open, and there are two little palace maids standing next to the door, who look like they are so sleepy that they are about to fall asleep.

In the painting, the landscape is blurred and the clouds are shrouded in mist.

Looking at it from a distance, it is full of meaning, and when you look closer, the cloud looks like a fierce beast that can eat people in a trance, and the cloud is the bloody mouth of the fierce beast.

......

Shendu Taihao National Teacher's Mansion.

At three o'clock, two girls came from outside the National Teacher's Mansion.

One of them was carrying an oil-paper umbrella for the other and carrying a painting clip behind his back.

The two walked very slowly, silently, until they walked to the door of the National Teacher's Mansion, among which the girl with the deepest eyebrows and eyes raised her head, and the corners of her mouth moved slightly: "Mu Er, why do you say that talented and wise people don't live long, and they all die at a very young age?"

The girl who was called to be a fungus thought for a while: "The fungus doesn't know why they don't live long, but the fungus guesses that it is probably the same as picking flowers in the garden." ”

"What do you mean?"

Fungus: "Think about it, when you were in the garden, if you wanted to pick flowers, which one would you want to pick first?"

"The ugly one. ”

Fungus: "Look, then ...... Wait, what do you say? Ugly? Why?"

"Because, in my garden, there is no room for useless waste. ”

The girl who said this was called March, from Guigu, who had covered the snow, played umbrellas, painted, and slaughtered Youzhou. The girl next to her is called Qiao Mu'er, a servant girl who has followed March since she was a child, and wrote a letter to Fei Wenxiu, the queen of the Tang Kingdom, a few days ago, but the letter was sent, but there was no reply, she was not at ease, so she wanted to come and see.
