Chapter 15
I thought that Shen Xing would be very happy, but she was very hesitant, "I, I can't leave Tokyo City..."

"Why? Didn't you always want to leave here?"

"I seem to have left something important in the peony garden. I need to find it back."

"This is easy to handle, as long as you sneak in at night and take it away." After finishing speaking, he still didn't forget to ask Feixiao, "Really, Feixiao."

Fei Xiao nodded repeatedly with a chicken in her mouth, this kind of stealing was something he was born with, and it was so easy.

After Shen Xing heard this, a look of guilt appeared on his little face, "But I even forgot what it was..."

Wang Zijin was dumbfounded when he heard this, this forgetfulness is too scary.

"I really forgot. It seems that I lost that thing a long time ago. I have been thinking about it for many years, but something has been forgotten in such a long time." Shen Xing lowered his head sadly and said, his delicate and beautiful facial features were all wrinkled. There was a ball.

The three of them talked for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so they had to go back to the inn disgruntled.

At the second watch of the day, Wang Zijin was in a deep sleep, but was awakened by a slight knock on the door. He went to open the door sleepily, and saw a beautiful girl in a cherry red skirt standing outside the door. Shen Xing.

"It's so late, let's talk about it tomorrow." Wang Zijin yawned and said in a daze.

"I remember where that thing is, let's get it now..." Shen Xing's face was pale, and there was excitement in his beautiful eyes, as if he was in a state of excitement.

Prince Jin couldn't bear to brush her off, so he hurried back to put on his outer robe, only to find that Fei Xiao had already adjusted her clothes and was sitting on the edge of the bed waiting for him, without her usual frivolous and coquettish smile.

The moonlight is like filth, and the starlight is dim.Shen Xing led the way, and the three of them walked out of the inn. In the bewildered night, in the pervasive night fog, Wang Zijin looked at the graceful figure hurrying ahead, and felt strange.

Seven

The two followed Shen Xing for more than half an hour, and then they arrived at the gate of the Peony Garden.It was Yin time at this time, but seeing that the gate was closed tightly and some lights in the garden were flickering, it seemed that there were guests staying overnight.

Fei Xiao looked at the door, "Let's go in through the back door? Miss, do you know where the back door is?"

Shen Xing's beautiful eyes were lifeless, and became empty and confused. He only replied "I know" lightly, and then walked towards the backyard.

Wang Zijin felt that something was wrong with her, but it was inconvenient to say so, so he looked back at Fei Xiao, only to see him stretch out a finger and put it on his lips, signaling him to stop talking.

After a while, Fei Xiao leaned over her head, "She seems to have remembered something, don't stop her."

Wang Zijin nodded, looking at the beautiful and dull Shen Xing who was like a doll, he felt a little worried, and only hoped that everything would be fine.

Shen Xing led the two of them to the back door, reached out and pushed the door, only to find that the door was locked.

Fei Xiao stepped forward and pushed lightly, the door creaked and opened in response, there was a click from inside, but the lock fell to the ground.

Only now did Wang Zijin understand where his inexhaustible silver taels came from.

Seeing the door opened, Shen Xing hurried in, stared at the garden in the backyard and started to be dazed, whispering: "It's different, it's different, why is it different?"

Wang Zijin couldn't help wondering: "What's different? Isn't this the Peony Garden? The place where you lived."

Shen Xing stretched out a jade hand, pointing at the barren back garden, "Everything is different, the courtyard is still the same courtyard, but the rockery and flowers and trees are gone."

"Don't think about this, don't you remember where that thing is? Let's go get it quickly." Scarlet reminded her.

"By the way..." Shen Xing finally came to his senses, "I came back to fetch things."

"Is that thing in your room?" Wang Zijin asked.

"My room? By the way, I want to see how my room is doing." After finishing speaking, she found a path in the lush forest and walked down.

"Hey! Your room is in the inner courtyard, it's not in such a remote place." Wang Zijin followed anxiously.

Behind him, Fei Xiao hurriedly grabbed him, "Don't make a fuss, let's see where she goes."

Shen Xing turned a few corners, and finally stopped in front of a dilapidated hut.

Wang Zijin was extremely surprised when he saw the dilapidated hut, "Isn't this a woodshed?"

Shen Xing ignored it, and stretched out his hand to push open the door of the thatched hut. Through the hazy moonlight, it could be seen that the hut was full of firewood.

"How did it become like this? Where did my bed go?" Shen Xing was full of surprise.

"Shen Xing, let's go quickly. The place where you live is the big house over there." The prince pulled her hastily, but in the hazy moonlight, her originally plump and beautiful cheeks were deeply sunken, her flesh was shriveled, Live like a mummy.

Wang Zijin was taken aback by her, wouldn't she want to eat meat and drink blood again?I can't find any animals now, will she catch me to make up for it?
He didn't dare to speak, and sneaked aside, "Fei Xiao, when did she become like this?"

"It's been like this for a long time, but you didn't notice it." Fei Xiao replied, frowning at Shen Xing who was behaving strangely.

Shen Xing looked around in the firewood room, and reached out to touch the window lattice, "Yes, I live here, and I have engraved the words recording the date here." After speaking, he hummed a song, "Poor Yue upstairs Wandering, should be taken away from the makeup mirror..."

She sang the song "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" when we first met. She hummed the song, and her sunken eyes became blurred again, as if her thoughts had drifted to a long time ago.

This song touched Wang Zijin's mind, thinking that when Shen Xing was dressed in red, she was as beautiful as a fairy, and the song "Moonlight Night on the Spring River" was sung like the sound of nature.

If she didn't catch the bouquet, would she still be a fairy singing and dancing on the lake?nor reduced to dry bones singing old songs in this filthy place.

The same piece of music sounds very different due to different moods.

Shen Xing sang a few lines, then sighed: "Sister Ruyu's song is really nice, when will I be able to sing as well as her?"

The tone was full of envy, as if the soul hid in a small unknown world, shielding Wang Zijin and Fei Xiao from it.

Then she suddenly seemed to remember something, "Mirror, where is my mirror?"

Wang Zijin finally heaved a sigh of relief: I finally remembered what I was looking for, but it was just a mirror, take it and leave quickly, don't play tricks again, or I will be scared to death by her.

I saw Shen Xing with disheveled hair, hurriedly moving firewood in the corner, Wang Zijin also went to help, but couldn't bear to look at her withered face.

The two moved for a while, and the firewood was emptied. Shen Xing groped in the corner of the wall for a long time, and finally pulled out a brick, then reached into the hole in the brick, and found a bronze mirror.

She touched the mirror very cherishingly, "This is my treasure, at least I haven't lost it..."

It was a dusty looking-glass, now rotted into disrepute, but the fine workmanship was evident from the fine rims of the frame.

Shen Xing happily turned the bronze mirror upside down, and wiped off the floating dust on the mirror surface with his cuff.

Wang Zijin hastily stretched out his hand to stop him, "Don't look in that mirror!"

But it was too late, Shen Xing threw away the mirror, holding his face in fear with his hands, "What was that just now? Was it me? How did it become like this?"

Eight

Wang Zijin hastily embraced her in his arms, and said softly: "No, that wasn't you just now, it was just a nightmare."

He only felt that the person in his arms was suffering from a serious illness and was shaking non-stop. After a while, Shen Xing stopped shaking, and quietly said: "My lord, where are we?"

Wang Zijin was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly raised his head to look at Fei Xiao, who was studying with the mirror, but didn't seem to find any clues.

However, Shen Xing in his arms raised his head, his face was like a flower, his skin was like jade, his black hair was shiny and smooth, his whole body was as fresh and beautiful as a spring peach in March, no different from usual.

"What kind of place is this?" Shen Xing looked around and asked, "How did I get here?"

Prince Jin hurriedly helped her up and patted the dirt on her body, "This is the woodshed in the Peony Garden, you brought us here, why have you forgotten all about it now?"

"Huh?" Shen Xing was still puzzled, "Why did I bring you here?" She looked back at the window again, "However, this place is so familiar, I seem to have seen this window lattice before..."

"Don't worry about it so much, since we got the things, let's go quickly and set off for home tomorrow."

Shen Xing's hand stroked the window sill again as before, "Departure, where are you going?" Then he looked back and sighed, "Why did you get the things?"

"Miss Shen Xing, is this the mirror you're looking for?" Fei Xiao picked up the mirror and handed it to her.

Shen Xing was full of surprise, "Young Master Hu, this is not the thing I'm looking for, but I'm familiar with this mirror."

After hearing this, Wang Zijin and Fei Xiao couldn't help but glanced at each other, their faces were blank, and they felt like a thick fog shrouded in their hearts, this matter was confusing from beginning to end.

Fei Xiao winked at Wang Zijin, Wang Zijin understood, and quickly asked Shen Xing: "How do you know this is not what you are looking for? Didn't you even forget what you were looking for?"

Shen Xing held the mirror and said: "I only know that I should feel very sad when I see that thing, but I don't feel it when I see it. There is a feeling of cherishing."

She picked up the mirror and looked at it again, the moonlight was not very bright, and the shadow in the mirror became more and more blurred, "I seem to be looking at this mirror somewhere too," she turned her head in wonder, "It's the person in the mirror, it seems that it's not this person. look."

Hearing what she said, Wang Zijin became even more frightened, "Let's go quickly, don't bother with the mirror, or come back to look for it tomorrow during the day."

He hurriedly pulled Shen Xing to walk out of the firewood room, but Shen Xing couldn't hold it steady, and the mirror in her hand fell to the ground with a bang, and she couldn't help but blurt out: "My sandalwood mirror!"

Wang Zijin couldn't help wondering: "You remember everything?"

"That's right, how would I know that this mirror is made of sandalwood?" Shen Xing said to himself, looking at the mirror again, the frame of the mirror turned purple-black, how could he tell what material it was made of.

Fei Xiao hurriedly reminded her: "Think about it again, is there anything familiar here?"

Shen Xing looked out the window, tilted his head and said, "I remember here, it was a peach blossom forest in spring."

But outside is a piece of dwarf trees that turn yellow in late autumn. Where is there any peach grove?Shen Xing walked out of the thatched hut in a trance, his eyes became blurred again, as if there was really a beautiful peach blossom in front of him, vying for beauty.

Wang Zijin and Fei Xiao hurriedly followed her out of the woodshed. In the hazy moonlight, Shen Xing thought about leading the way ahead, muttering: "It's changed, why has it all changed?"
