Rebellious Contract Beast

"Well, are there any questions?"

"Yes, I have many more questions."

"Great!" The young prince became excited, "Then ask quickly!"

"I want to know how you got in without the guards, okay?"

"This..." Hearing that this was what Shen Yi asked, the young prince showed hesitation on his face.

"I can't tell you that."

"why?"

"Because it's my secret!"

"Hey, you can't be like this as a human being. Your secret is a secret, but my secret is no longer a secret, right?"

"not me……"

"No, I've told you all my secrets."

"This...are you going to escape from here?"

"if not?"

"The guards outside are tight, you can't escape."

"I can't just sit there and wait for death, can I?"

"..."

"Tell me, how about I give you twenty candies this time?"

"I……"

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else your secret."

"Can you give me more sugar?"

"How much do you want?"

"Twenty...no! Thirty!"

"Deal!" Shen Yi readily agreed. The young prince opposite was stunned for a moment after hearing this, feeling inexplicably that he had been cheated.

"This……"

"What? Too many? Then just twenty-five."

"No, no, no, thirty, thirty!"

"It's not worth it."

"Give me the candy first."

"No, I won't give it to you until you take me to find it first."

"Now?"

"Of course not." Shen Yi shook his head. He and the young prince had been chatting for a long time, and now the guards above were almost here to patrol.

When the young prince saw him like this, he immediately turned back and glanced outside the iron gate. He was not stupid. Of course he understood what Shen Yi meant. When he turned his head back again, he said, "Then I will come back to you later."

"OK."

"Oak."

Shen Yi didn't say anything, just watched the young prince walk to the iron gate, ducked and got out.

When she saw him again, it was already a few hours later. Not long after the guard had just completed his inspection, Shen Yi saw the young prince changing into black clothes and sneaking up to the iron gate again.

He did not come in, but shouted to him from outside the door: "Xuanli! Xuanli! Can you come out?"

Shen Yi moved twice. To be honest, it was risky to choose to go out at this time. Maybe guards would suddenly come down to inspect.

But my luck shouldn't be that bad, right?

Anyway, just go for a while.

Thinking of this, Shen Yi moved his body twice and walked towards the iron gate.

"You're so big, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out." Looking at his huge size, he knew without even thinking that he couldn't get out of the iron gate, and the young prince couldn't help but feel worried about him.

But Shen Yi didn't take it seriously and asked, "Are you sure no one will come down later?"

"Of course, I'm very familiar with this place."

"Well."

"Hey, why did you come out?"

"Don't worry about this." Shen Yi said and lay down, feeling and touching the jade body shrinking talisman on his body, he didn't waste any time and immediately began to shrink his body.

In the sight of the young prince, Shen Yi's nine-foot-long, four-story-high body began to shrink at an extremely fast speed.

In one minute, Shen Yi changed from a behemoth to a fat dragon as big as a dog. However, he did not stop yet and continued to use the sensory control body shrinking jade talisman to compress his body. Another four or five minutes passed. Shen Yi's body shrank further and reached a limit.

Only then did he stop, and then he stuck his head out of the iron gate, twisted his body left and right, and squeezed out with a lot of effort.

"Okay, let's go." After realizing that no one was coming down, Shen Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

The young prince looked at him blankly, and after a while he said, "Do you still have this ability?"

"Hmph, okay, don't waste time, take me to see it quickly."

"Oh." The young prince nodded, waved to Shen Yi, and led him deeper into the corridor.

After reaching the fork in the road, the young prince walked directly to the passage on the right.

Shen Yi glanced at the passage on the left and asked, "Hey, kid, I came out here last night and saw a person locked up inside. Do you know who that person is?"

"Well... I heard from my father and the others that what is being held there is a famous demon cultivator who is at the peak of the spiritual level. You must not get close to him, otherwise you will die without knowing it."

"Moxiu...oh." Shen Yi nodded and asked: "Where is your secret passage? I searched for a long time last night and couldn't find it."

"Humph, it's strange that you can find it." The young prince said with a proud face, as if everything was taken for granted.

"What if a guard suddenly comes down to check and finds that I'm not here?"

"I don't know about this. Blessed people have their own destiny, but you don't seem to be human..."

"..."

A man and a dragon were chatting on the road. After a while, they walked to the iron gate extending out of another underground palace. The young prince thought of something, lowered his head and looked at Shen Yi and said, "How many questions did you ask me?"

Shen Yi was startled when he heard this and asked, "Do you remember how many questions I asked you?"

"How do I remember?"

"It's fine if you don't remember, but I remember."

"Then give me candy! You've already asked several questions."

"for you."

"...Five?"

"Yeah, I asked you five questions."

"There can't be only five questions, you asked me a lot!"

"It's just five, I remember it clearly."

"Give me five more, definitely more than five questions."

"Don't you remember how many questions I asked you?"

"I……"

"Come on, they said I remember them very clearly, there are five of them, take them."

"mean!"

"You have to be honest as a person. Isn't this just and natural?"

"..." The young prince looked at Shen Yi angrily and was speechless for a moment. An inexplicable feeling grew in his heart. Only if he had memories of Shen Yi's previous life would he understand that he had been tricked. .

Shen Yi rubbed his nose nonchalantly and said, "Okay, which way to go next? Going forward will be a dead end."

"Humph!" He snorted dissatisfiedly, but the young prince still waved to him, then ducked down and got through the iron gate in front of him, with Shen Yi following closely behind.

Plop, plop~

The sound of limbs stepping into the snow on the ground sounded one after another, echoing around, making this underground palace extremely empty.

Awareness quickly swept around, and a confused look appeared in Shen Yi's eyes.

There seems to be no entrance to the secret passage around here. The ground is full of water, so the entrance cannot be on the ground. He looked at the young prince, who was looking up at something,

Shen Yi immediately looked up, but saw nothing.

"Where is your secret passage?"

"There." The young prince stretched out his finger, but in Shen Yi's eyes there was nothing but a stone brick wall and a stone brick wall.

"What?"

"You keep an eye on it." The young prince didn't bother to explain to him, so he turned around and ran to the left side of the broken stone pillar.

Although he is small, he is like a monkey, able to climb up anywhere. In a short while, he climbed to the middle of the stone pillar, then stretched out his foot to step on a raised stone brick, and then stretched out his hand again, very skillfully. Caught on the wall.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Yi saw ripples appearing on the stone bricks somewhere on the wall, and the young prince's body disappeared into the wall in his eyes.

"no……"

"What are you still doing? Come up quickly."

Shen Yi probably understood that someone had tampered with that area on the wall. It looked like a wall, but in fact it had been hollowed out.

Hearing the other party's urging, Shen Yi was immediately eager to try, but his body could not climb up as easily as the young prince, so he was not ready to climb. He opened his shrunken wings, slowly rose into the air, and then headed towards He hit the place where the young prince was submerged.

He thought he could smoothly enter the passage behind the illusion, but what Shen Yi didn't expect was that as soon as he touched the wall, he felt a strong resistance. He only heard a "bang" sound, and the next second he Was bounced back to the ground.

"Ouch……"

"What's wrong?" The young prince's doubtful voice sounded next.

Shen Yi stood up from the ground and said dissatisfied: "Does this depend on the person? I can't get in!"

"Uh..." The young prince seemed to have remembered something, and his tone was a little awkward.

"Wait here for a moment, I'll be back soon."

"What are you going to do?"

"Get you something."

The voice of the young prince's response was getting farther and farther away, and he didn't know where he was going.

Shen Yi had no choice but to wait where he was, worried all the time.

Fortunately, not long after, only two or three minutes, the young prince's voice sounded again from behind the wall.

"Connect it. With this thing, you can come in."

As soon as he finished speaking, ripples appeared on the wall again, and then something was spat out.

Shen Yi had quick eyes and quick hands, leaned forward, stretched out his claws to grab it, and then took a closer look. It was a round sign, white, and felt like wood, but it looked like silver, which was very strange. There are some lines on it that seem to contain some magic power.

After catching this thing, Shen Yi had an inexplicable feeling. It was difficult to describe clearly, but when he looked at the wall again, he found that the place where the young prince had entered was now translucent.

Behind the wall, the figure of the young prince is looming.

"How about it?"

"Can you see me?"

"I can see a little bit."

"Then come in quickly!" the young prince urged.

After hesitating for a moment, Shen Yi took off again and hit the wall.

wow~

The dragon's body touches the wall, causing real ripples to appear.

This time Shen Yi successfully entered the secret passage at the back.

After landing in a somewhat embarrassed state, Shen Yi looked left and right at the surrounding environment.

"where is this place?"

"This is the ant tunnel."

"Ant Road?"

"Yes, it's the ant way, the ant's ant."

"Why is there such a place?"

"I dug this out with my playmates."

"Dig it out?" Shen Yi's eyes were full of doubts. This so-called ant tunnel was much smaller than the normal underground palace passage outside. Shen Yi had to half-crouch down to barely move forward inside. If this place was full of dirt, If so, he still believed that it was dug out by a few children. But, the ant tunnel was reinforced with smaller flat stone bricks all around. How could it be dug out by children?

"Hey~ You guys also built these little bricks?"

"That's not the case." The young prince quickly shook his head and said, "Uncle Stinky Foot helped us build it with his own spiritual power."

"Uncle Stinky Foot, is he one of the spiritual monks here?"

"Correct."

"Does he know there is a secret passage here?"

"Yeah, but don't worry, Uncle Stinky Foot won't come here."

"It feels a bit unreliable..."

"Come with me."

"Row."

"These are what my playmates and I dug out, me, the little beggar, and little Yaya, the three of us."

"How long did it take to dig?"

"I have been digging for several days, but I don't remember how many days. It was just a few days. Not long after digging, I was discovered by Uncle Stinky Foot. Uncle Stinky Foot was a very nice person. Not only did he not tell my father, He also helped us make this place what it is now.”

"..." The young prince and Shen Yi said, and after a while, they arrived at a very small space.

"Here we are, this is my little home."

The young prince walked to the middle as he spoke, his face full of pride, and he was obviously very satisfied with the place.

Shen Yi scanned the space and found that the space might not be ten square meters, but there were stalls on the floor and some wooden cabinets and shelves placed against the walls. There were all kinds of things on them, including colorful lacquerware, dolls, etc. Wooden weapons, armors, etc. are either placed on the cabinets or piled randomly on the ground, which looks very messy.

There are some small quilts and other things on the blankets on the ground. There is a stone pier in the middle. There is a night bead inlaid on the stone pier, which illuminates this small space brightly.

If you are not claustrophobic, staying here will give you a sense of security.

It would also be the ideal secret base for any young boy.

Shen Yi admitted that he was a little envious of this kid.

Finally, Shen Yi looked at one of the most conspicuous cabinets. There were five clay dolls on it. Different from other messy items, these clay dolls were placed side by side, very neatly, which was very important to the owner here. It seems to have some extraordinary significance.

So Shen Yi asked: "What is this?"

The young prince looked at the five clay dolls and became energetic. He immediately walked over and picked up the middle clay doll and introduced it to Shen Yi: "We made these. This one is me."

Shen Yi tilted his head. This clay doll could only have been made by a child. The facial features were messy and abstract. It didn't look like the kid in front of him.

"And this one, this is the little beggar, this is Xiao Yaya, this one on the side is brother Yanbao, and this one is sister Tong Xue."

"Don't you only have two playmates? Why are there two more?"

"Brother Yanbao and sister Tongxue were my playmates at first, but later they were sent home by my father."

"What about this little Yaya and the little beggar you are talking about?"

"They were also sent back..." The young prince was a little depressed.

Shen Yi's eyes also darkened, and he asked again: "How long have you lived here?"

"I don't know. My dad said that I will be a general in the future, so he asked me to learn the art of war here."

"Are the little beggar and little Yaya the same age as you?"

"No, they are three years older than me. They were sent away by my father during the festival."

"Oh..." Shen Yi seemed to understand something and fell silent.

Judging from the information spoken by the other party, Yan Bao, Tong Xue, the little beggar and the little Yaya were probably only eight years old when they got along with the kid.

Xiao Gui said that he had sent all four of them home, but in Shen Yi's opinion, these four children were already in danger.

Because when holding some sacrificial rituals, it is the best choice to use eight-year-old boys and girls as sacrifices.
