It was getting late, and the Habayashi guards built a bonfire outside the cave where they lived, cleaned up the monster venison and wild pheasant meat that had been brought in during the day, and roasted until the fat dripped into the fire, making a sizzling sound and a burnt aroma, Only then did he cut off the most delicate and tender part, and sent it to Bai Mingyue on a porcelain plate.

Since the white swan he was riding was injured and fled into this forest, they seemed to be fascinated by some formation, and they couldn't go back to the way they came in.Fortunately, they brought a lot of guards. Among them, the captain, Sun Anguo, was a middle-level martial arts expert. Apart from dealing with those monsters that came to prey, he also had enough energy to hunt down some low-level monsters for food.

Even in this kind of place, Bai Mingyue still has a way to live as comfortably as in Beijing.He was sitting on a silk carpet spread in a white swan sedan chair, with many soft pillows and cushions pushed on it, so he could sit or lean on it, and there was a three-foot-long purple barrier around his body to block the cold wind blowing around him. wind.Although there are no servants in the palace, most of those guards are from the sons of officials. They are handsome, elegant, considerate and capable. As long as he coughs, they are willing to fight to do the work of servants for him.

The only dissatisfying thing is that his future son-in-law always refuses to stay by his side like others, and instead finds many excuses to stay away from him.I don't know what he is trying to avoid. With their identities and relationship, who in this group of Habayashi guards dare to talk too much without long-sightedness?

He was holding a bowl of hot wild pheasant mushroom soup, and slowly scooped it spoon by spoon until the clear soup bottomed out, and Ren Qing didn't come in to accompany him to eat.His green feather-like eyebrows frowned, lifted the barrier to look around, and called Ren Qing's name in a soft voice.

Habayashi, who was eating, put down their plates one after another, wiped off the oil stains from the corners of their mouths and fingers, and leaned closer to curry favor.But there was still no one he wanted to see, Bai Mingyue raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why isn't Ren Lang here?"

Sun Anguo thought he had seen through the minds of their children, he laughed and said: "Mr. Ren said he wanted to see where the source of the stream is, and he followed the stream to find the way. He should come back when the moon comes up. gone."

In terms of understanding of the forest, no one can compare to Ren Qing who has lived in Guanshan for ten years.These days, whether it is finding the way, food, or water, you have to point to him to guide you ahead. If not, Bai Mingyue would like to keep him by her side day and night. He doesn't trust these guards very much, the only thing he is willing to rely on This is the only one.

Moreover, Ren Qing always refused him thousands of miles away, being touched by him was like being frightened, but she had to force herself to put on a calm posture, which really made people want to tease him more.Thinking of the appearance of biting his lip and trembling all over his body when he teased him a few days ago, but he was not willing to push her away, Bai Mingyue's expression became clear again as if he had seen the moon through the clouds, and licked the bright red on the left ear. coral earrings.

The scene of the vast wilderness unfolded before his eyes, and it was no longer the forest that had besieged them for a long time.Bai Mingyue's heart was beating violently, and she resolutely injected all the spiritual energy in her body, and the scene in front of her eyes changed again, as if there was a city standing not far away, and the gate of the city was blurred, as if someone was shaking.

Are they finally going to walk out of this gloomy forest and return to the inhabited place?He was so excited that he didn't have time to pay attention to why Ren Qing didn't come back to tell them when he found out. He lowered his voice and shouted: "Pack up your things immediately! Ren Qing has found the exit of the forest, and there is an inhabited city, let's go there now!" "

He was wearing a narrow-sleeved Hu suit, with a heroic demeanor. The young Habayashi guards looked at him enviously, wishing that they could squeeze Ren Qing's position and become this son-in-law.But he didn't take these admiring gazes seriously, untied a white deer pulling a cart, took the lead, and led the crowd towards the huge city that Ren Qing had discovered.

The moon had just risen now, and its soft white light flooded the top of the forest just to show them the way.Everyone was fed up with the misery of sleeping in the wild. Hearing that people could be found, they drove a little faster than when they were fleeing for their lives. They followed Bai Mingyue all the way and finally saw Ren Qing who was about to return at the edge of the forest.

A few miles away, there is a huge city that is tall and solemn, even more magnificent than Chang'an.

Bai Mingyue smiled, her complexion was brighter than the moonlight, she followed the white deer to land on the clouds, and when she flew in front of Ren Qing, she leaned over and pulled him onto the deer's back, hugged him from behind, and went straight to the city gate.

Ren Qing pulled the reins, turned around and shouted: "Don't enter the city! I saw some people moving around in this city just now. I saw that they were not sent by the court, but looked like ordinary people. But how could there be someone in this immortal mansion? , I'm afraid it's another maze..."

Before he finished speaking, the car carrying Habayashi rushed towards the city gate, and broke in in the blink of an eye.There were still two guards at the gate of the city, but they turned a blind eye to the deer cart, as if they were a little sleepy, holding a gun against their shoulders, leaning against the city to take a nap.

Bai Mingyue smiled and said: "Telling them not to go in after they've all reached the edge of the city is like yelling not to go in when the belt is lightly untied and the jade body is lying horizontally. Who will listen to you? Anyway, when I get there, I will make up my mind." I will not do such a disappointing thing.”

"No..." Ren Qing wanted to scold him for being shameless, but she didn't want to reveal that she already knew his identity, so she swallowed the last word and abruptly changed it to: "Anyway, these words are not decent, The princess, the proud daughter of heaven, how can you say that."

Instead, Bai Mingyue laughed long and hoarsely and movingly, as if a small hook grew out of her throat to stir people's hearts: "Father Huang was only my age when he was the first beauty, so you think I was raised in the palace?" Are you as ignorant as those inexperienced little ladies outside?"

He leaned against Ren Qing's body tightly, the soft things on his chest seemed to be less padded than last time, his hands moved restlessly, his fingers gently slid down from Ren Qing's chest, and landed close to the deer's back Suddenly, he pulled it up forcefully and drew a circle on the flat hinterland.When Ren Qing's body tensed up stiffly, he jerked the reins and drove the white deer straight into the city.

Surprisingly, this city is indeed like an ordinary city.

The city is full of lights, it is not as spooky as the forest, but very lively, there are ladies and gentlemen playing in the streets, and the houses and inns are brightly lit.The innkeeper didn't seem to think it was strange that there were so many foreigners, he greeted them warmly and asked them if they needed food and wine.The people slept in the forest for more than ten days, unable to move their minds, and didn't even bother to eat. After entering the room, they tucked into the soft and warm beds, and each of them slept in the dark.

It was three poles high in the next day, and Ren Qing woke up.The others got up later than him, and the doors were tightly closed, so he went downstairs to order food first, and sat in the lobby waiting for everyone to come down.

When the person passing the food came, he took out a spirit bead and stuffed it into the other person's hand, and asked with a smile: "What is this place? How can there be such a big city? Have you always lived in this city? You have seen it before." What's it like outside..."

The passer was all smiles, but he didn't answer the questions. He just introduced the dishes one by one, and pushed the Lingzhu back and put it on the table, as if he had no interest.Ren Qing took a closer look at his body and there was also spiritual energy, but he couldn't tell whether his cultivation was high or low, it should be higher than himself, just as if he didn't see a mere Lingzhu, so he took out two more Lingbi and handed them over, sincerely Said: "The younger generation didn't want to inquire about the privacy of the city, but just strayed into this place, and wanted to ask the senior to point out the way to leave."

The man didn't pick up the Lingbi, and there was no anger on his face, he just smiled and explained the origin of these dishes.This situation was so weird that Ren Qing immediately bit her lips and dared not speak any more, she put her true energy into her eyes and looked around.

The guests in the inn were all eating, drinking and talking. They didn't seem to have anything special, but upon closer inspection, they were all at a level higher than themselves like this food passer. There wasn't even a single ordinary person in the entire inn. That's suspicious enough in itself.Even in a place like Chang'an where noble people gather, the servants in the inn can't afford the lowest level of bone refining warriors, and here everyone is above warriors, not even an ordinary person. What kind of place is it? ?

He didn't dare to talk to the food delivery person anymore, he stood up and said: "I still have some things to do first, and I don't dare to ask your Excellency for advice."

After he got up, the messenger shut his mouth and turned back to the back kitchen, not paying much attention to him, nor to the pile of Lingzhu and Lingbi on the table.Ren Qing had no intention of taking back those things, so she got up and walked out of the inn.The sun outside is bright and the air is warm and dry, which is not the same as the forest full of monsters; the flow of people on the street is quite dense, and the people who come and go, whether they are peddlers or wealthy young men, are all dressed fresh and neat, with faces on everyone's faces. All with a smile.

There were children playing and playing on the street. It happened that a child was being chased in a hurry and bumped into his leg, making a muffled sound.His body has been tempered for many years, and his muscles are as hard as iron. This move is afraid that he will hit the child badly.

Ren Qing quickly reached out to help, and was about to apologize, but the child looked up with a smile on his face, as if he had bumped into it, and his feet were still bouncing.It was only then that Ren Qing remembered that she was covered with the halo of the Virgin Mary, and it was impossible to really hurt anyone. She touched the child's head with a wry smile, and asked, "Which family are you from? Why are you here?" Where to go to play. Uncle buy you candy, okay?"

Although he has tried it himself and knows how useless the Holy Mother's halo is, the guide only said that Bai Mingyue can dodge it, but he didn't say that he can't dodge. Doing good deeds has also become a habit, so I went to the roadside vendor to buy a few pieces of candy, and then distributed them to the children.

But when he passed the candy over, the child seemed to have seen nothing, and was still jumping and playing with his partner.The same goes for other children - they would look around the caramel stand, but no one looked at the candy in Ren Qing's hand.

It's almost as if he can't see him.

This thought flashed in Ren Qing's mind, and he suppressed it again—the vegetable passer and the caramel seller could clearly see him and talk to him, but they were talking to themselves, no matter what he asked. What is it... Isn't this also a kind of weirdness?

They seem to live in another world, blind to people who have nothing to do with what they do, and listen to people who have nothing to do with them.

The more Ren Qing thought about it, the more frightened she became, she quickly lifted her anger and walked out along the way she came last night.The inn they chose was not far from the city gate. After walking quickly for a stick of incense, he saw the wide open city gate. He was a little relieved and speeded up to get out.

However, after taking this step, the world in front of him suddenly became dark, as if suddenly entering night from day.After getting used to the darkness, he realized that the outside of the city was not the wilderness when they came, and there were no forests and monsters wandering in it, but a quiet and desolate city wall and houses, pressing down heavily like dark clouds.

He wanted to retreat to the city that was at least bright and people were coming and going, but there was a voice in his heart that kept urging him to go forward.Ren Qing's eyes were firmly glued to the dark sky, and his body couldn't help walking forward step by step, each step was as heavy as if he wanted to step through the bluestone floor.

His steps became heavier and heavier, and his strength dissipated with each step. In the end, he had the illusion that he had walked tens of thousands of miles, but looking at the appearance of the buildings on both sides, he was still on that street.The layers of houses separated before his eyes, revealing a quiet square in the middle, and a huge armillary sphere standing in the middle of the square, which could reach tens of feet high.

When I got the fragments that day, the scene that appeared in my mind actually appeared in reality.

Ren Qing suddenly felt hot in his hands, but at some point, the box containing the fragments had already been taken into his hands.The hard jade box began to melt at some point, exposing the black fragments that were constantly shaking and emitting extremely high heat.

He recovered from the heat, turned around and ran back.The power that had been passing away just now seemed to have returned to his body, and it was easy to circulate the true energy, and it was swept out eight or nine feet away.

But as he flew, the street seemed to be extended with him. The houses on both sides of the street were closed in like living creatures, closing the world layer by layer from the inside to the outside.Ren Qing almost ran into two houses that were joined together, but fortunately he retreated in time, so that he didn't slap his tall nose directly.He backed up a few steps, trying to leave from another alley, but the house was squeezed into a step before he entered, as if he would not give up unless he was forced back to the square.

The burning sensation on his palm reminded Ren Qing again, and he ran back to the city again. When he reached the edge of the square, he opened the jade box, took out the fragments and threw them viciously at the armillary sphere.

This is something of a fairy, and should not be held by a mortal. If he returns it, the city will no longer trap him, right?

This throw was extremely powerful, and the fragments hit the armillary sphere hard, making a crisp sound that was neither gold nor jade, and then a faint golden light glowed on the entire armillary sphere, slowly sinking into the ground.But the surrounding buildings didn't return to the same appearance when he came in, but kept pushing towards the center.The golden armillary sphere disappeared on the horizon, but Ren Qing was forced into that square inch, and even the sky seemed to hang down.The entire giant city seemed to be squeezed together, and the aura in the city wrapped him as viscous as an egg yolk, pressing him to the very core, unable to move at all.

But he could feel his body and the city where he was staying were slowly turning, and the aura around him was changing slightly, and after a long time, he could feel its regularity, just like the tide.Occasionally, a soft light would flash in the endless darkness in front of him, as if turning from pure darkness to the starry sky, he gradually lost the sense of fear when he first entered this city, and he was as peaceful and comfortable as a newborn baby, only occasionally A little idea arises in this stagnant calm.

——He left Xu Shaoting alone in the capital, if he couldn't go back, wouldn't he have to bear the pain of bereavement again?

Ren Qing couldn't imagine that the person he was thinking of was standing in the same fairyland as him, and the person he hadn't thought of was lying on the big soft and comfortable bed in the inn, dreaming the sweetest dream of his life—— The protagonist in the dream is him.

Ren Qing in Bai Mingyue's dream seems to be older than the present one, and more chic and romantic, with fluttering sleeves, she looks like a fairy.And his attitude is not as jerky and old-fashioned as it is now. When he looked at Bai Mingyue with a smile on his face, the affection was so strong that it almost flowed from his eyes, and he was also a little nervous, as if he was worried that his appearance was not enough. Charming, but not refined and witty enough to make the perfect impression on a princess.

Bai Mingyue looked at her and talked to him like a bystander, and seemed to be herself in a dream, and could communicate with this person easily and happily.He even told Ren Qing about his plan to take control of the front court and harem after the death of his father, restore his status as a man, and ascend the throne as emperor without any suspicion. Take the throne yourself.

But the subsequent changes caught him off guard.

Seeing that the affection on Ren Qing's face turned to frost, he stood up abruptly, and said the cruelest words in a voice as clear as spring water - he didn't want to.Ren Qing was not only unwilling, but also said that Bai Cheng was the eldest son of the royal father, the orthodox heir to the throne, and also said that he wanted to ask the royal father to take back the marriage gift...

Then Bai Mingyue in the dream took a dagger from her bosom, thrust it into Ren Qing's chest, and killed him resolutely and without any room left.

This is impossible!It shouldn't be like this!When Bai Mingyue woke up from the dream, she realized that she was already drenched in sweat.He covered his chest with his hands and panted desperately, staggered off the bed, put on only a Hu suit casually, and went straight to the room where Ren Qing lived next door.
