Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

Chuanyan took a deep breath and said, "I see a ghost!"

"..."

A gust of cold wind came over the lake with the smell of water, and everyone snored.

Nangong Lizhu immediately said, "Where's the ghost, princess, don't talk nonsense."

"I didn't talk nonsense, really!"

As she said, she reached out and grabbed our two wrists, her little hand was cold, and she shivered slightly: "Come with me, come with me!"

When I was talking, I kept pulling us towards the lake. I and Nangong Lizhu looked at each other, and I could only follow it. When I walked to a rocky beach, I pointed to the front: "There!"

Everyone held their breath and looked forward where she was pointing.

There was a bright moon on the calm lake. Ripples appeared because of a gust of wind, and the moonlight was broken, turning into a sparkling light in our eyes, and even a little dazzling.

Nothing is clear except these waves.

Nangong Lizhu looked for a moment, and said, "Where, there is nothing here."

The coquettish words were anxious: "Just--I just saw it, and I was there--"

She said, and also stretched her neck to look forward, but this time, even herself was a bit stunned, because in the moonlight, there was nothing at all, except the bright starlight and the scattered moonlight on the lake.

Seeing that she was no longer talking, everyone around her was relieved.

Someone said softly, "Frighten me, I thought there was a ghost."

"His Royal Highness may be dazzled."

"This lake is so deep, maybe there are fish and shrimp?"

"That is, it may be the shadow of a flying bird that was mistaken for a ghost."

Everyone said that, it was all in twos and threes, and Nangong Lizhu said softly, "Princess, don't scare yourself. Where are the ghosts, take a good rest."

When she was gone, Miao Yan looked back at me anxiously and said, "Mother, wouldn't you also think I was dazzled?"

"..."

"I didn't, I really didn't!"

"..."

"I really saw it. Before the moonlight was so bright, I really saw a ghost at the bottom of the lake. I saw a skeleton!"

"..."

"Mother, don't you believe me?"

I stood still, the sparkling light reflected my eyes, making me feel dizzy. I looked down at the wonderful words and remained silent for a long time before I said, "You just said, did you see a skull at the bottom of the lake? "

"Yeah, I really saw it!" She grabbed my hand and said seriously: "Mother, I didn't lie and I didn't dazzle!"

Looking into her eyes, I was silent for a long time, and then said, "My mother believes you."

She rejoiced for a while: "Mother!"

At this time, it seems that it is not so important to be scared. The important thing is to have someone believe her, because the attitude of everyone just now will make her very depressed, even lonely. But now, I don't just trust her in my heart, I think she saw the skeleton under the water so simple. The calm lake seems to be blowing a violent wind suddenly, so that I suddenly wake up.

I finally remembered, what Father Hu said to those businessmen who returned, the ghost town is usually on the ground, but when this season is special, there is a lot of water coming out of the ground for some reason. All filled up into a lake, and the ghost town sank under the lake.

Is it--

I slowly turned my head and looked at the lake in front of me.

Are the twisted, rugged shadows we see during the day really ghost towns?

Is there a ghost town in the population hidden under this seemingly quiet lake?

I remember Daddy Hu also said that when someone looks down on the lake, they will see a lot of skulls. Did they just see the skulls just now?

The original feeling of facing the water source of life sank suddenly at this moment. Although nothing happened, the word "ghost city" just made me feel a bit creepy.

I thought about it, turned my head and said to Miaoyan: "Mother believes in you, but you should never come near this lake again."

Needless to say, she was frightened and nodded hurriedly: "I see!"

"Go back."

I shoved her shoulders and took her back to the campfire.

Nangong Lizhu looked at Xiaoyan with a pale face, and comforted her, and gave her a bowl of hot soup to calm her down. Just after the trouble, and everyone was struggling to move forward this evening. At this time, they were a bit out of power. When they finished eating, everyone except the night watchman arranged by Yu Wenying went to bed. .

We were also the same as last night. After we removed the bonfire, we covered it with thick felt. The heat from the ground made us very comfortable. After a while, we started to sleep in my arms, squinting our eyes, but She braced and opened her eyes and looked at me again, and said softly, "Mother."

I looked down at her: "Why don't you sleep?"

"Father Emperor, can you find it here?"

"..."

"I miss the emperor."

"..."

"Are they in danger, will they encounter wolves?"

I hurriedly said, "Rest assured, there are so many guards around your father, and he won't be afraid of more wolves. If I can find him here-" I smiled: "He must be here too Looking for you, he will find you. "

This sentence probably also gave her some comfort. I felt her tight breathing slowed down a bit, and then quietly said, "Mother, I really don't want to stay in this place anymore. It's terrible. There are wolves and skeletons. It's never been like this before. Mother, I seem to be back— "

With that said, she froze for a moment.

Back to where?

Beijing, that's her own home, but she can't go back because it already belongs to Pei Yuanxiu.

She was innocent again, and she knew that her father and father were in desperate circumstances, and she couldn't go back.

Feeling her low mood, I hugged her softly and said softly: "Don't be afraid of this wonderful word. There is always a place for your new home in this world. At that time, you don't need to be like this now Stray. "

She was quiet for a long time, and said "um" softly.

After a while, I heard her whisper, and looking down, she was asleep.

On the other side, Li Gongzhu from Nangong was also sleeping heavily in a thick blanket. Perhaps today I was really scared and exhausted.

But this time, I couldn't sleep anyway.

The air is full of the smell of moist water, not far behind us. It is the "ghost town" that I think is the only night cry. I thought it was just a peaceful lake. The so-called weird horrors are Those people compiled it, but didn't expect that the situation here was so complicated. If Miaoyan had really lost sight, she really saw the skull at the bottom of the lake—

Who is that skeleton?

Under this calm lake, what is hidden in the end, let him, make Pei Yuanzhang, even Xie Xun like it.

This place must not be as calm as we have seen.

As I was constantly thinking about it, a footstep sounded from the front, and slowly walked past us, towards the lake behind me.

Looking up, it was Yu Wenying.

He didn't sleep and went to the lake again and stood.

I thought about it for a while, gently put the hand on my body down, covered her with a blanket, and slowly got up and walked over.

Although the weather on the Gobi Beach is bad, at night, the starry sky above is brighter than any other place, and the moon is also very bright, but it is different from other places. The moon in other places is reflected in the water. It is also a bright full moon, and the reflection of the moon here in the lake is a little red.

As if, Yuehua Central was also stained with blood.

Yu Wenying stood with his hands on his back, standing by the lake, drenched with water, reflecting his erect figure, like a javelin by the lake. He heard my approaching steps without turning his head, and said directly: "Miss Yan. "

"Mr. Yuwen knows it's me?"

"I know you must have a lot of things to ask me."

"..."

Indeed, I had a lot of questions to ask him along the way, and now, in this "ghost town", seeing this seemingly calm lake without knowing what the lake was hiding below, my doubts deepened.

"Xie Xie, is he looking for this place too?"

"Yes."

It seems that my guess before Qinghan was correct. Xie Yan waited for Pei Yuanzhang to finish the last wine at the tomb, in order to determine this direction. If he really came, then use Pei Yuanzhang's temperament, He will certainly overcome all difficulties and chase him to the end.

At that time, we should all be able to meet here.

However, I'm just a little strange now--Yu Wenying is going to this place to sacrifice the Longxi Army, and Pei Yuanzhang's last baron is also facing this direction. Even, even Xie Xun, he took every effort to get us caught To live and escape from prison in order to find this place.

Are they all related to the Longxi Army?

"So-here, is this where the sir is going to sacrifice?"

"..."

"Here, where is it?"

"..."

"I heard someone in Fengxiang City tell a story about this place. On the way to Qingtang City, I met several businessmen who were lost because of the wind and sand. They also came to this place, and they did n’t dare to be hungry or thirsty. Touch the water here. Because they said, this place is a ghost town! During the day, the shadows we saw were the so-called ghost town, right? "

"..."

"They also said that if someone looked down from the lake, they would see some faint skeletons. She just saw the wonderful words."

"..."

"I know she won't lie. What she sees is really a skeleton, right?"

"..."

"Whose skeleton is it? Or, whose skeleton is it?"
