Lu Shan had never been to the imperial city before, so after he settled the matter with the jackal, he went to the street market alone to have a look.

The city of Panlong is still incomparable to the imperial city, it is bustling with people coming and going, it is lively all day long.

He squeezed through the crowd, listening to words with different accents, feeling novel.

After walking for a while, he rested under the flowering tree where bees were buzzing, watching the people passing by, feeling an indescribable tranquility in his heart.

Suddenly, he seemed to hear a soft sigh.

Lu Shan was startled, turned his head left and right to look around, and there was no strange person sighing beside him.

He wanted to just smile and not take it seriously, but he heard a long and deep dragon chant again.

Lu Shan couldn't explain why he knew it was Longyin.It's just that when the voice sounded, my heart skipped a beat and I understood what it was.

This Longyin has compassion, loneliness, and many emotions that Lu Shan can't describe.

Lu Shan casually stopped an aunt passing by him, and asked her, "Auntie, did you hear a strange sound just now?"

The aunt smiled heartily, and said loudly: "I didn't hear that. But you are from outside, brother? You are leaning against the dragon wall like this, and you will be cut off by the people in the palace." Speaking of the latter, the smile on her face was small A few points.

Dragon wall?

Behind him is the high wall of the palace!

Lu Shan was startled and asked, "So this is actually a palace wall."

The aunt saw that he really didn't know, so she stopped and explained to him: "This is the outermost wall, and there are many palace walls inside. I don't know what kind of demons are in the palace recently, there are always strange things. things happen……"

She lowered her voice and said, "The distant cousin of the next door has been a maid in the palace, and she just came out of it in February this year. She said that the palace is not allowed to go out at night, and seven or eight people were lost this year... Listen to the palace. The Zhang family on the east side of the wall said that they could always hear strange noises from the palace at night, and that the family next door had just given birth to a daughter and disappeared that night... Tell me, how scary it is."

Lu Shan frowned.

Some may be exaggerated by the aunt, but it is really strange that there is no one in the palace at night.

"Hey, I have to go back to cook, you have to be careful. Just try not to get close to the palace." After finishing speaking, the aunt waved her hand and left.

Lu Shan then turned his head and looked at the wall behind him.

The wall is not high, painted with red paint, but it has a daunting aura.

He couldn't see the scene inside the palace, and he didn't know what it felt like inside.Lu Shan reached out, touched the wall, and got dust on his hands.

He couldn't do much with his current ability, he could only stay where he was for a while, and then continued walking.It's just that the mood is a little more heavy now.

Still thinking about the weird thing that happened in the palace that the aunt said.

The sky was getting dark, and the evening wind suddenly picked up.

Lu Shan found a clean little shop and sat down for dinner.

There are world-famous sauced duck and meat sandwiches in the imperial city. Naturally, Lu Shan didn't suffer himself, and ordered a sauce duck and meat sandwiches.

At his age, he eats more and grows less.

He didn't eat much in the palace these few days, he thought, the days to come might be as hard as it is now, and when he wakes up in a different place, he should eat more when he can eat well.

There are not many people at this time, and the dishes are served very quickly.The waiter greeted Lu Shan swiftly.

The oily and fragrant sliced ​​sauced duck was served on a plate, and the waiter in the shop said loudly: "Guest officer, please use it well."

"Thank you." Lu Shan took a slice and put it in his mouth. It was neither salty nor bland, and the sauce melted into the meat, making the meat tender and smooth.

Unexpectedly delicious.

"It's delicious." Lu Shan praised softly.

Hearing it from the waiter at the side, he smiled immediately: "Guest officer, it's just as long as you like it."

It was only after Lu Shan was eating that he saw that there was only the waiter in the shop.

Probably seeing the doubt in his eyes, the "shop waiter" answered with a smile, "I am also the shopkeeper of this shop."

It turned out to be the case.

"My wife is cooking in the back kitchen, and I'm watching the shop in the front." The shopkeeper smiled honestly.

Invisibly, Lu Shan felt that he was forced to eat a handful of honey.

However, it is really a blessing to open a mom-and-pop shop.

After a while, the shopkeeper brought out the hot and crispy meat sandwiches.

"I'll bring you a soup." Lu Shan was the only one in the store at the moment, and the shopkeeper sent him an egg soup.

"Thank you very much." Lu Shan took it with both hands.

"Is my brother a foreigner?"

"Yes, I came from a mountain city thousands of miles away." Lu Shan felt that the shopkeeper was kind, so he chatted with him.

"Your sauced duck and meat sandwiches are delicious, why are there so few customers?" Lu Shan asked him.

The location here is not bad, the dishes are good, and not expensive, but there are very few people eating at this time.

"Hey." The shopkeeper sighed and sat down on the stool.

"Little brother, you just came here, and you don't know what happened in the imperial city recently."

When Lu Shan heard this, he remembered what the aunt had said this afternoon, and his curiosity deepened.

"I don't know about the others. The people who live next to the palace don't dare to go out at night recently." The shopkeeper said with a sad face, "Several shops don't do evening business anymore. It used to be very lively."

Indeed, every inch of land near the imperial palace was originally expensive.There are so many people, but now several stores are closed early.

"When did this strange thing start?" There were no people in the middle of the night for no reason, and it is possible that the people who attacked were ghosts.

The shopkeeper squinted his eyes and thought for a while, then said uncertainly: "It's been three or four months..."

"Then, did anything unusual happen three or four months ago?" Lu Shan asked him.He is not in the imperial city, so he is not very well informed about the news here.But ordinary big events can also be passed from the imperial city to Panlong.He remembered that nothing major happened in the first three or four months.If anything happened to the Heavenly Master Protector, he would definitely announce it to the world.

However, five months ago, the emperor seemed to appoint a noble concubine.

"I don't remember clearly." The shopkeeper shook his head.

Lu Shan had almost eaten too much.

"Little brother, hurry up after eating, go back to your inn and stay well. Don't go out if you have nothing to do at night, and we are going to close the shop to rest." Forgot to tell him.

"Thank you, brother, for your concern." Lu Shan nodded.

On the way back to the inn, Lu Shan really didn't see many people.Even if they meet people, most of them are in groups of threes and twos, and rarely alone.

He also quickened his pace and walked towards the inn.

It's just that maybe his physique is naturally prone to attract those weird things.

Lu Shan seemed to hear the sound of gurgling in his throat.

"Gu—" This time it seemed to come from the stomach!

He lifted his legs and ran.

The reason why he could hear so clearly was probably because the aura in his body gradually became more abundant, and some of the restraints were broken.

As Lu Shan ran, he could feel the Qi continuously gushing out from the wall beside him.

Although he couldn't see the evil spirits, as long as there were ghosts and ghosts, most of their spirits would be sucked by him.Now this kind of qi gushing out, scrambling to pour into his body, is like a stormy sea, trying to tear him apart.

It's not particularly obvious to be around here during the day today, but now that it's night, all the ghosts and ghosts come out together.

He thought, if he could see, there should be demons dancing in the palace right now.

Lu Shan didn't have the heart to guess what was behind him, and he didn't care about the qi pouring into him, even though the qi was beneficial to him and harmless.

Lu Shan, who has no spiritual recovery, is no different from human beings.

He was quickly blown down by the evil wind behind him, and could only do somersault on the ground.But he still couldn't escape being caught.

"Uh." He was lifted by the wind and hung in mid-air.

With his back to the demon behind him, Lu Shan couldn't see anything at all.

However, this situation did not last long, and the next moment, he felt a familiar aura hit him.

A faint grassy earthy smell.

It is mountain evil.

The thick and forceful evil wind behind him disappeared.

As soon as Shan Xie made a move, the monster ran away.

"You're here!" Lu Shan was gently put down.

"Yeah." Shan Xie had this indifferent look again.

Lu Shan was very smart, as soon as something happened on his side, Shan Xie came in the blink of an eye.

"Are you secretly looking at me?" Lu Shan secretly laughed.

Only by looking at yourself all the time will you immediately find that you have met a monster.

"..." Shan Xie looked away.

"What about the monster?" Lu Shan didn't see the monster from the beginning to the end, "Did you beat it away?"

"It didn't have time to make a shot, it sensed me and ran away." Shan Xie explained.

Hey, monsters are also bullying.

Lu Shan couldn't help thinking that maybe he would become stronger in the future.At that time, the monsters would not dare to bully him!

"Have you noticed that the imperial city at night is a bit weird?"

"Yes, there are too many demons here."

When Shan Xie talked about this, the expression on his face didn't change much.

"My body is about to swell and explode." Lu Shan said, rolled his eyelids, and blew on his drooping hair.

Shan Xie reached out and helped him to comb his hair, pinning it behind his ears.

As he got closer, Lu Shan could smell his body smelling good, with a stream of wet vapor.

For no reason, Lu Shan thought of the mountain evil he saw in the water mirror.He may have gotten a lot of water vapor in the mountains, and then suddenly came here to save himself.

A flower bloomed in my heart.

"Well, there is too much qi here. It will be a little uncomfortable if you absorb too much at once, it's okay." Shan Xie looked at him, "You bear it."

"Let's go home."

"what?"

Before Lu Shan could figure out the situation, Shan Xie pulled him into his arms, hugged him tightly, and the two disappeared instantly.
