Chapter 34 Strange Dreams

In order to prevent Zhong Linlang from running around again, Jinhong specially assigned a lot of manpower to Shen Xiangxie.

Guan Ju still served her delicious food and drink, but followed her every step of the way. Zhong Linlang was so anxious that she couldn't get Guan Ju away.

Sitting in the yard, she watched Guan Ju order the maid to clean up the stagnant water on the ground.

It rained a little last night, but it has stopped now.

The cold wind was blowing in, and several crows stood on the branches with scarlet eyes and squawked.

Zhong Linlang thought for a while, and beckoned Guan Ju to come over.

Guan Ju respectfully blessed her body, and then made a gesture, meaning to ask her what's the matter.

Zhong Linlang hesitated for a while, then came up with a plan.

"I want to go out for a while."

Guan Ju shook his head hastily.

Zhong Linlang knew that she would definitely refuse, so she quickly added: "I won't run around, you follow me out."

Guan Ju thought for a while, then gestured again, asking where she wanted to go.

"Strolling around casually, it's too boring to stay here."

Guan Ju raised his hand to greet a servant and asked him to report to the Demon Lord.

After a while the attendant came back in a hurry, saying that it was okay for her to relax, but someone had to follow her, and the time could not be long.

After all, Zhong Linlang is a god, and her request is not too much, there is no need to tear her face to look ugly.

With the permission of the demon king, Guan Ju felt relieved and found a few guards to follow them.

Three years later, Zhong Linlang saw not only the attic, but also the pool of blood where Fu Jingce bathed, and the darkroom, but there is no way to enter the darkroom, so he can only go to the back mountain to have a look up.

According to the route in the memory, go around to the big pool behind the magic palace.

The appearance of the pool has hardly changed. It falls against the mountain and is surrounded by stone piles.

But... the water in the pool is not blood red, and there are no bones in the crevices of the gravel, only bright red wandering flowers.

The only thing that hasn't changed is that the water is still steaming.

In other words, it was later that the pond turned blood red?Zhong Linlang originally thought that the blood pond existed in the first place, but she didn't expect that when Jinhong was the devil, the water was still crystal clear.

Then why did it turn red later?And she was sure that it didn't smell like blood, but the smell was so weak that Zhong Linlang couldn't tell what it was.

She walked to the edge of the pool and squatted down, reaching out to touch the water in the pool.

She was so hot that she couldn't help but retract her hand after only one touch.

When the burning sensation came from the fingertips, Zhong Linlang frowned and took a look. They were all burned, red and swollen as if they were about to blister.

The water is too hot!Such a short time can actually burn off a layer of her skin!

Guan Ju didn't understand that it was not good for her to go to have fun, she insisted on coming here, and now seeing Zhong Linlang dipping her hand into such hot water, she couldn't understand even more.

Why is God so dazed?Can't she see the hot mist rising from the pool?

No wonder I heard the Demon Lord say that there is no one smart in Tiangong, but now it seems to be true.

Guan Ju was stunned when the guard next to her poked her, and she quickly reacted to look at the burn on Zhong Linlang's hand.

Zhong Linlang didn't care, and hid her hands in her sleeves, "I'm fine, it's just a small burn. Is your water this hot?"

Guan Ju shook his head, pointed to the mountain, and indicated that the water in this pool flows down from the mountain, and no one would normally use it.

Flowed down the mountain?Isn't that spring soup?

Sure enough, if you look at it now, there is nothing abnormal.

Guan Ju waved his hand in front of her, then pointed to her hand, signaling to go back quickly to treat the wound.

Zhong Linlang nodded, and looked at the pool before leaving.

Spring water gushed out from the middle of the pool, and the large boulders at the bottom of the pool were brought to vibrate.

There was nothing unusual, she sighed and followed Guan Ju back.

When going to bed at night, Zhong Linlang had a very strange dream.

There was a fog in the dream, and it was impossible to see where it was.

Walking forward, there seemed to be a cliff mountain ahead, and there was a person sitting on the cliff with his back to her.

Zhong Linlang continued to walk forward, but the mountain seemed to have grown legs. Every time she took a step, the mountain moved a mile, always keeping a certain distance from her.

She felt strange, but could only linger in place.

The person sitting on the cliff suddenly took out a jade flute and played it carefully.

The sound of the flute is long and clear, and it sounds very peaceful, as if holding the stars in the sky into his arms.

After listening to it for a long time, Zhong Linlang couldn't figure out what the song was, but felt that listening to this song for a long time would make people fall into it and not be able to wake up for a long time.

Before the end of the song, the flute player suddenly stopped playing and put away the jade flute.

The sound of the flute stopped abruptly, and Zhong Linlang suddenly came back to his senses.

She looked up, only to see the man flicking his sleeves and slowly turning his face.

Zhong Linlang held his breath and looked.

Suddenly, the surrounding fog rose up, covering the figure of the man, and even the outline of the mountain could not be seen clearly.Zhong Linlang tried to open her eyes wide, but saw a falling black shadow in the white world.

The man jumped off the cliff!

She completely forgot that she was in a dream, and wanted to shout, but found that she couldn't make a sound.

Zhong Linlang panicked and ran forward, but suddenly couldn't see anything.

A moment later, she appeared on the cliff.

There is an abyss beneath your feet.

Zhong Linlang didn't understand why she suddenly appeared here. She subconsciously wanted to run back, but the cliff began to collapse at this moment. She wanted to grab something, but she couldn't catch anything. She could only fall down quickly .

The strong wind cut her face like a knife.

The sharp pain was so real that Zhong Linlang almost thought she was not in a dream.

She suddenly heard a very slight sigh in her ear.

The elusive sigh quickly dissipated in the wind.

It kept falling, and when it was about to hit the ground, a tall tower suddenly appeared in front of Zhong Linlang's eyes.

A tall tower that goes straight into the sky, hidden in the fog, can't be seen clearly.

She stretched out her hand, and her eyes fell into nothingness.

Zhong Linlang woke up suddenly.

A hand was resting on her forehead.

She was startled.

The young man in a black robe, with his neckline slightly open, revealing his fair skin, was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at her with burning eyes.

It's Fu Jingce? !
Zhong Linlang said in her heart that this could not be a dream. After rubbing her eyes, she found that he was still there.

Not a dream!

She regained her composure, and after realizing the reaction, she subconsciously shrank back and hugged the quilt tightly, "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?"

Just now I thought it was Guan Ju who came in to help her cover the quilt.

Fu Jingce didn't tie up his hair, the black hair hanging down matched his skin, and his eyes were amazingly bright.

He didn't speak.

This doesn't look like his style either. Could it be that he came to her here in the middle of the night in a sleepwalking dream?
"What's wrong with you?" Zhong Linlang frowned.

Fu Jingce still didn't speak.

Zhong Linlang was so panicked that she saw that he kept silent, so she simply threatened, "Hurry up, or I'll call someone if you don't!"

"You shout." He said suddenly.

Zhong Linlang was shocked. Is there such a strange request?
She stretched out her hand to touch his forehead, wanting to see if he had a fever, but before she could touch it, Fu Jingce held it instead.

His fingertips were cold, and he clasped her hand tightly.

Zhong Linlang struggled a few times, but couldn't break free, a little annoyed: "What's wrong with you?"

Fu Jingce interrupted her, clasped her hand, and looked at her seriously, "Are you leaving?"

Jinhong told her that people from Tiangong would come to pick her up, and Fu Jingce knew about it later. The news in the magic palace spread really fast.

Although Zhong Linlang couldn't figure out what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, he still nodded honestly: "Hurry up, let's see what happens the day after tomorrow."

"Where are you going?" Fu Jingce frowned and asked her.

He held her wrist tightly, but refused to let go.

Zhong Linlang struggled a few more times, and said unhappily, "Of course I'm going back to where I should go. You're home now, and I haven't been home yet."

"This is not my home!" Fu Jingce retorted coldly as if being stepped on a pain point, then lowered his head the next second, and said without thinking, "You can't go."

Zhong Linlang felt strange.What kind of nonsense is this, that she still won't be allowed to return to the Heavenly Palace?When he was arrested before, didn't he want her to come? Why doesn't he want her to go now?

"Why can't I leave?" Zhong Linlang frowned, feeling more and more inexplicable.

"You promised me in the temple before!" Fu Jingce reminded with a look of resentment, "Did you forget?"

Zhong Linlang was confused.

"...Forget it." Seeing her appearance, Fu Jingce lowered his head in disappointment, and said in a low voice, "I want to watch a trick."

He didn't know what the wind was. Zhong Linlang didn't dare to offend him easily at this time, but asked tentatively, "The trick on the street that day?"

Fu Jingce nodded.

She sighed.

A moment later, a shimmering white lotus blossomed out of her palm.

Bai Lian slowly faded away, and the surrounding fairy lights illuminated Fu Jingce's black eyes very brightly.

"Is it okay now?" Zhong Linlang asked him.

Fu Jingce remained silent, and suddenly approached her after a moment of silence, so close that she could hear each other's subtle breathing, which was very clear in the silent night.

"If you don't want to go, I can help you." He told her seriously.

Zhong Linlang pursed her lips.

"Stay well in the Demon Palace." After a long time, that was all she could tell him.

Fu Jingce suddenly stood up and gave her a casual look.

Without saying anything, he quietly left.

Zhong Linlang lost all sleepiness.

I don't know what he did wrong.
