I have this beautiful boy

After listening to his words, I leaned forward with great interest.

Through the torches on both sides, we can clearly see five grotesque small animals painted on the murals. There is a snake with eight heads on one tail, and a chicken that looks like an ostrich but drags the tail of a phoenix. There's also a beast that looks like a bull but has bat wings on its back, and a big wolfhound with blown fur.

The only thing that was relatively normal was a fish, but there were two dragon horns growing on the head of this fish.

I looked at Shen Suifeng puzzled, and said, "In your Shen family's ancestral hall, are there paintings of monsters?"

Shen Suifeng was startled by my word "monster", coughed twice in embarrassment and didn't speak. I remembered that I was also a person who went to the ancestral hall, and I didn't see any murals.

Hearing my question, Shen Suifeng said: "The murals are in the secret room under the ancestral hall. Of course you can't get in. So far, the only people who know the murals are the current Patriarch of the Shen family and me."

I have always known that Shen Suifeng was trained as the next head of the Shen family, so it is not unusual to know some secrets.

I focused on the mural again, wondering: "What do you think is painted on this mural?"

Shen Suifeng reached out to touch the mural, and said softly, "It's the five spirits, the legendary five spirits. Those who get the five spirits win the world. spirit."

After listening to his words, I sighed and glanced at the small animals on the mural, and couldn't help sighing: "This is not a mythical beast, it is simply a monster. Even if I got it, I would have to be scared to death, right?"

Shen Suifeng was speechless, and was about to explain, when I thought of something, I interrupted: "Aren't we just practicing the Five Spirits spell? So is it Shen Aofeng or these monsters who invented the Five Spirits spell?"

Shen Suifeng said: "I heard from the Patriarch that at the beginning of the creation of the world, these five spirit beasts were transformed from the spiritual energy between the heaven and the earth, and they respectively contained five kinds of energy: gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Afterwards, human beings gradually came into existence. The ancestor Shen Aofeng discovered the existence of the five spirits in the human body under the inspiration of the murals, so he used and spread them, and today's magic came into being."

I wondered: "It doesn't make sense, if Shen Aofeng discovered these secrets based on the revelation of the murals, then who carved the murals?"

Shen Suifeng spread his hands and said with a smile: "Who knows, maybe... the creator of the world."

I curled my lips in disdain and joked, "You still believe this."

Shen Suifeng smiled and said: "There are too many unsolved mysteries in this world. For example, how did the word come out that those who get the five spirit beasts win the world? Do the five spirit beasts really exist? If so, where are they? And so on, we don’t know. But for us, there must be a way to live in this day, so believing in the Creator of the world is the best choice.”

While listening to his explanation, I continued to study the murals, and suddenly saw that in this picture, there were not only five grotesque animals, but also an almost worn-out animal whose shape could be vaguely recognized. ,Child.

I pointed to the picture of the child and said, "Do you look like a child?"

Shen Suifeng's expression changed slightly when he heard the words, and he quickly went up to check it carefully, and even reached out to touch the pattern.

After a long time, he stood up and said, "It's so strange. If you don't look carefully, you can't see this pattern at all. Thinking about it carefully, there seems to be a trace like this on the mural in the secret room of the Shen family. I didn't notice it at the time. But , Judging from this, the child's painting was forcibly erased, which is simply too strange."

I wondered: "We are definitely not the only two who can come to this secret room. If someone else wiped it, it is also possible. What's so strange?"

Shen Suifeng shook his head and said: "It's nothing to know the location of a mural, but this person also knows the secret room of the Shen family and can go in to modify it. Then who is this person? Also, why did he want to Paint over this kid? What's the point?"

Shen Suifeng's expression has always been gentle, he speaks very slowly, without any aggressiveness, but when he asked me a series of questions, a chill rose from the soles of my feet unknowingly, my heart began to become disordered, and my mind Many fuzzy pictures flashed quickly, and then I had a splitting headache.

Sensing my strangeness, Shen Suifeng quickly raised his hand, pulled me into his arms, and said softly, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."

The warmth from his body gradually relaxes my body, and the vague orchid fragrance surrounds the tip of my nose, gradually calming down my mood.

At that moment, I was even a little greedy for the warmth in his arms, and I just wanted this moment to be eternal, and my mood was unprecedentedly quiet and peaceful.

However, just as my mood was gradually calming down, a figure suddenly flashed by, and I was startled and broke free from his arms.

When I looked around again, I found that although I couldn't see the figure of that person, it was still obvious that the movement of his figure caused the beating of the candlelight.

Shen Suifeng's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he pointed in one direction and said, "I ran there, chase after me."

We chased in that direction, but that person was obviously very familiar with the environment inside, and used the mechanism in the secret room along the way to stop us from moving forward.

The skills and reactions of the two of us are not bad, otherwise I'm afraid I have to explain it.

However, just when we were about to catch up with that person, that person turned a corner and disappeared out of thin air.

I looked around suspiciously, and found that there is indeed no other exit here, and, judging by the speed of me and Shen Suifeng, it is impossible to be thrown too far away. Could it be that this person disappeared out of thin air?

Looking into my suspicious eyes, Shen Suifeng said: "There should be an exit near here. It is impossible for people to disappear under their noses, unless they leave here."

His words also made sense, I was thinking about it, when suddenly, a steel needle shot out from above my head, and it came straight towards me.

Shen Suifeng shouted: "Be careful." Then he raised his hand and pushed me away with a palm.

Although I avoided the steel needle, my body also fell backward because of the loss of center of gravity, and I was hitting the nearby stone wall.

I thought I could rely on the strength of the stone wall to prevent me from falling, but who would have thought that when my body and arms touched the stone wall, the stone wall turned into a phantom, and I walked straight through like this, and then , fell heavily to the ground.

Shen Suifeng was also taken aback, and rushed over to help me. Only then did we realize that, on the surrounding walls, only this piece was a phantom, passing through it, we went outside.

It was already dawn, and there were occasional sounds of patrolling guards passing by, and the sound of neat footsteps was very clear.

Shen Suifeng pulled me up and said with a smile, "I never thought that this exit was so cleverly designed."

I curled my lips, rubbed my sore arm, and said, "What's so clever, isn't everyone able to enter and exit through such an exit?"

Shen Suifeng shook his head and said: "That's not the case. There are many traps in the secret room, especially the position of the exit. We just happened to bump into this wall when we were avoiding hidden weapons. After a normal person comes here and finds that there is a trap, it is I won't touch the wall casually. And..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand to touch the wall, and the place that was originally a phantom suddenly turned into a real wall.

He intensified the force again, still motionless.

Then, he said with a smile: "Look, I guessed right. This exit is one-way, you can only go out, you can't go in. Looking at the wall from the outside, it's really just a wall."

I sighed and said, "Now it seems that it is impossible to go back the way I came. Hurry up and find a way to go back. Otherwise, if someone enters the palace at dawn, I will be in trouble."

Shen Suifeng's expression suddenly became solemn, and he made a tactic with one hand, and said, "It's already gone."

After finishing speaking, the whole person disappeared in front of my eyes, which caught me off guard.But I still couldn't help sighing in my heart, this kid, his lightness kung fu is definitely above me.

Just when I was speechless and wanted to find my way out, Bai Shangzhi's voice suddenly came from behind me.

"Yugui? Are you awake? Why are you here?"

Only after hearing his voice did I know why Shen Suifeng disappeared immediately.

At this time, there is no other way to get out, but to continue acting.

Afterwards, I turned around, pretended to be weak, and said, "I just woke up not long ago, and I don't know where I am, so I just went out to look for it. I didn't expect to get lost here."

Hearing what I said, Bai Shangzhi frowned slightly, walked over quickly, took off his cloak, put it on my shoulders, and said with a worried face: "What did the guard Shen Suifeng do? You came out by yourself. He didn't even realize it, the lonely king will definitely punish him severely! Put on some clothes, the morning dew will be heavy, don't get sick again."

I thought in my heart that it was bad, I didn't expect to make up a reason out of my mouth, and actually put Shen Suifeng into a trap, so I could only complain for him secretly.

However, the most urgent task is to stabilize Bai Shangzhi first.

I coughed twice and whispered, "It has nothing to do with him, I want to come out, but why are you here so early? Besides, no one has followed."

Bai Shangzhi helped me to walk in one direction, and said, "I don't like people following me. I went out for a walk. I didn't expect to meet you."

Seeing his sad face, I jokingly said, "He came from Siqi?"

He turned his head, looked at me helplessly and smiled, then raised his hand and poked my forehead, and said, "You are a child, what kind of thoughts are you full of?"

I raised my hand and touched my head, and muttered: "I didn't think about anything messy, it was you who were newlyweds, and I was right..."

Bai Shangzhi looked at me for a long time, I was too embarrassed to look up, I just looked down at his toes in a daze.

After a long time, he sighed and said: "Unfortunately, the person I married was not the one I truly love. Yugui, you will understand later, people who follow the tide of all forces have no choice in their own lives at all. right."

His words reminded me that his marriage to Siqi seemed to be an accident.

Because Siqi failed to attack me and was about to be executed, in order to save her life and win over Xiangguo, I had no choice but to marry this woman.

I suddenly felt that the man in front of me was very sad, he seemed to be the ruler of a country, above ten thousand people.

However, in his life, how many things can he really make his own decisions?I'm not sure.

In my opinion, he is just a poor wretch.

I raised my head, the corner of my mouth curled up, and said with a smile: "Then who is the person you really want to marry?"

He looked into my eyes with interest, approached slowly, and said word by word: "Lonely king, I want to marry you."
