Ying Zheng groaned and didn't speak for a long time.

"Why are you telling me this?" asked Xiao Zhuang.

Ying Zheng's frown suddenly relaxed, he sighed, and said lightly: "It's nothing, I just want to say it." ”

Late at night, Xiao Zhuang's spirit was a little sluggish after a whole day of prostration, he was the only one in the empty cell, his arms might have been tied too tightly and for too long, he had lost consciousness, and his feet didn't seem to be his own.

In a trance, he saw a strange black shadow appear in front of him, he thought it was Yingzheng coming back, he said a little impatiently: "Is it the second day?"

"Are you Wei Zhuang?" the strange man asked without a voice.

"You're not Yingzheng. Xiao Zhuang looked the person in front of him up and down, only to see that the person seemed to be hiding in this darkness, and could only see his outline through the faint light, the person in front of him did not have a high crown on his head, and his body looked thinner than Yingzheng, and the green silk was tied high behind his head.

"Who are you?" asked Xiao Zhuang in a hoarse voice.

"I'm the one who wants to get you out. The strange man said, and with a slight wave of his hand, an unknown smell spread in front of Xiao Zhuang.

Xiao Zhuang only felt that his head was dizzy, so he fell asleep. Who is that strange man? Xiao Zhuang still doesn't know.

This matter between Xiao Zhuang and Ying Zheng, Gai Nie never knew that after Xiao Zhuang returned to the Ghost Valley, the injuries on his body were really as Ying Zheng said, and all of them were healed. Faced with the questioning of Gai Nie and Guiguzi, Xiao Zhuang finally made up a lie, saying that he went to Xiaoyaozi to play for a few days, which can be regarded as covering up the past, because usually Xiaozhuang will go directly to Xiaoyaozi to play for a few days without saying hello.

Finally, Xiao Zhuang woke up from his memories. "If my sword hadn't hesitated and stabbed directly into Ying Zheng's throat, Senior Brother wouldn't have ended up in such a situation," Xiao Zhuang whispered, full of remorse.

"You're still planning to kill the king?" I don't know when, Ying Zheng walked out of the hall, he stood straight in front of Xiao Zhuang, his face full of disdain.

Hearing Yingzheng's voice, Xiao Zhuang came back from the old memories, at this moment Xiao Zhuang controlled the body of the baby Gai Nie, and his short stature also had a disadvantage in momentum: "Let me ask you, where did Gai Nie go?"

Ying Zheng stared down at Xiao Zhuang, his face was full of displeasure, probably because of the long time reading the papers, which made him have a splitting headache, he rubbed his temples, remembering that Zhao Gao said that there was something strange about this, and whether there was anything else to say about the dislocation of the soul, so he frowned, stared at Xiao Zhuang condescendingly, and asked: "Are you Wei Zhuang?" or Gai Nie?"

"Let me ask you, where is my senior brother?" Xiao Zhuang was already about to be driven crazy by the people of this empire, before he met an innocent eighteenth son Hu Hai, and then he met an unhurried Li Si, and now Yingzheng has been questioning him, it is really a rhythm that drives people crazy.

"What is Guigu's plan?" Ying Zheng ignored Xiao Zhuang and asked.

"What did you say?" Xiao Zhuang couldn't understand Yingzheng's words, and he stared at Yingzheng in confusion.

"The so-called dislocation of the soul must also be a step in the Guigu plan, right?" Ying Zheng did not shy away from saying straightforwardly.

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Xiao Zhuang glared at Ying Zheng, but in an instant, several shadow guards restrained Xiao Zhuang, and still tied Xiao Zhuang firmly with iron chains, because with the experience of Gai Nie's escape, this time Xiao Zhuang was bound more tightly than zongzi.

"Put him in the Tooth Eater Prison. I'm going to interrogate it myself. Ying Zheng said in a gloomy tone.

Being detained in a familiar place again, or the same room in the Tooth Eater Prison where he was held a few years ago, Xiao Zhuang was a little helpless, Ying Zheng was fine before, why did he change a lot after he fainted and woke up again? And why did he faint again? A series of questions lingered in Xiao Zhuang's mind, making Xiao Zhuang unable to understand.

At this moment, there was a sound of the iron chain outside the door, Xiao Zhuang looked in the direction where the sound came from, only to see the door move a few times, and a man in a white shirt and purple shadow slowly walked towards him, only to see that the person was dressed luxuriously, and his aura was extraordinary, although his expression was serious, but there was always a little frivolity between his eyebrows.

Xiao Zhuang glanced at the person a few times, and then recognized the identity of the person in front of him, this person's figure is exactly the same as the shadow that rescued himself from the Tooth Eater Prison that day, Xiao Zhuang didn't know whether it was surprise or stunned, he said with some hesitation: "It's you?"

"Do you remember me?" said the strange man with a smile in his eyes.

"I don't know your name yet. Xiao Zhuang said.

Just when Xiao Zhuang was talking to the strange man, there was a sound from the iron door again, and with the sound of the iron door, Ying Zheng's voice slowly came from behind the door, and he was heard: "His name is Han Fei." While speaking, Ying Zheng had already come to Xiao Zhuang and Han Fei.

Hearing the name 'Han Fei', Xiao Zhuang was startled, isn't Han Fei already dead, Xiao Zhuang stared at Han Fei with his eyes wide and straight at him.

"How is it?, do you have an answer?" Ying Zheng looked at Han Fei with a somewhat gloomy expression.

"Back to Your Majesty, he is Wei Zhuang. Han Fei replied with a smile.

"How can you see it?" Ying Zheng still felt a little unconvinced, because the dislocation of the soul was too appalling, and Ying Zheng looked Xiao Zhuang up and down a few times, and determined that Xiao Zhuang's appearance at the moment was indeed the appearance of baby Gai Nie.

Han Fei first glanced around, and made sure that there was no one else here except himself, Yingzheng and Xiaozhuang, especially Zhao Gao, so he raised his eyebrows and said with a chuckle: "Did Your Majesty forget, you imprisoned Wei Zhuang here that day, or did I secretly let him go." ”

"I guessed that you were the one who let him go. Ying Zheng made a straight face and said with a slight displeasure: "In the entire Xianyang Palace, I'm afraid that only you, the living dead, will do this kind of behavior that is not afraid of death." ”

His Majesty laughed. Han Fei smiled lightly, moved his gaze to Wei Zhuang, and said slowly: "Wei Zhuang saw me that day, so he could recognize my appearance, and there are not many people who can recognize my appearance all day." When Han Fei said this, he sighed softly unconsciously, and then he said: "From his expression and demeanor just now, it is not difficult to see that he has recognized me, so he is Wei Zhuang." ”

Xiao Zhuang was attracted by a word in their conversation, and he repeated softly: "The living dead? Xiao Zhuang raised his head and looked up at Han Fei, and after looking up and down for a moment, he said slowly: "Seeing that your eyes are clear and your face is ruddy, how can you say that you are a living dead?"

"The so-called living is just to die slowly. Han Fei said abruptly: "And I, I have already died once a few years ago." ”

Ying Zheng stood aside and listened silently to what Han Fei said.

"Have you already died once?" Xiao Zhuang said contemptuously: "Hmph~ Born in this troubled world, who do you think can stay out of the matter and spend their lives safely?"

"It seems that Mr. Wei Zhuang's past is also extraordinary. Han Fei smiled lightly: "However, what I am talking about is real death." ”

Xiao Zhuang was surprised, and Ying Zheng's brows became tighter and tighter.

"Have you ever experienced the pain of bleeding from the Seven Orifices?" Han Fei was still smiling, that smile was slightly stiff, and it looked so strange in this dark prison with a faint light.

"Are you?" asked Xiao Zhuang tentatively.

Han Fei glanced in the direction of Ying Zheng, as if asking Ying Zheng if he could continue to speak.

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, motioning for Han Fei to continue.

With Yingzheng's permission, Han Fei said slowly: "In the past, I went out of Xunzi with my fellow disciple Li Sishi, and I went back to South Korea, and he traveled a few times, and finally came to Qin to develop. His Majesty appointed his younger brother Li Si because of his appreciation of talents, and then a few years later, the King of Han sent me to the Qin State, and later Li Si said that the King of Qin gave me a glass of wine and had to drink it. As he spoke, Han Fei lowered his head, and a little tear seemed to flash in the corner of his eyes, but there was still a frivolous look in his eyes: "The world should know what happened later." ”

"Then why are you still standing in front of me alive?" Wei Zhuang only felt incredible: "Could it be that the street wells are all false?"

"It's true that the street is true, but I'm standing in front of you alive. Han Fei smiled weirdly, and his words were also full of mystery.

"I didn't give you any poisoned wine that day, and it was only later that I learned that you died violently in a prison cell, and the cause of death is unknown. Ying Zheng explained in a voice on the side.

"You don't have to explain anymore. Han Fei said slowly: "I know who is behind everything. ”

Xiao Zhuang listened with a confused face.

Han Fei smiled lightly and continued: "The future matter is still for Your Majesty to talk about. ”

Xiao Zhuang turned his puzzled gaze to Yingzheng again.

Later, I always felt that something was wrong, so I secretly sent the shadow guard to investigate, and learned that Han Fei's body was abandoned in the suburbs, so I arranged for the shadow guard to secretly bring Han Fei's body back to the palace. At that time, when I saw Han Fei's bleeding appearance, I had already guessed a rough idea, so I invited the Moon God and Yun Zhongjun to find a way to see if there was a spell to return to the sky. ”

"A spell to return to the sky. When Xiao Zhuang heard this, he only felt funny, and he said mockingly: "You really want to live forever and want to go crazy." ”

"If you don't go crazy, you can't live. Han Fei continued: "If it weren't for Your Majesty's belief in the forbidden art of the Yin and Yang Family, it would be impossible for me to stand here and talk to you at this moment." ”

Ying Zheng ignored Xiao Zhuang's ridicule, his face was slightly gloomy, and he continued: "I didn't expect that when the moon god and Yun Zhongjun saw Han Fei, they knew that he was different from ordinary people, Yun Zhongjun said that Han Fei was a fire spirit physique, and the fire spirit was another name for the phoenix, and people with this physique had the spirit of rebirth, which was different from ordinary people, and could be reborn from the fire." ”
