Chapter 307 In the Palace

The inner imperial city is breezy and cool, which is much warmer than the cold wind outside.

Thirteen woke up, but his body did not recover, his physical strength was weak, and his feet were sore.

Chen Xiaofan could only carry him on his back, and the three of them walked forward, towards the dimly lit place.

According to Shisan's feeling, the north side has the brightest lights, and it is also the direction where he feels the strongest. If he walks towards the north side, he can find the source.

In the Inner Imperial City in the dark night, not even a single guard was seen, it was deserted and indifferent, it didn't look like the most prosperous and prosperous place in the city at all.

Crossing the unguarded square, the three cats walked to the north. There are palaces in the north, and there are many halls, but only the palace in front is lit, and the dark behind is completely dark.

As you get closer to the palace, you can hear faint music coming from inside, as well as faint laughter.

It looked like a big party was being held.

The outside of the city is weird and weird, and there are countless dead people, but the city is singing and dancing.

Do people who live in the Inner Imperial City know what's going on outside?
There were some more soldiers in front of the palace where the singing and dancing sound was the loudest, but they fell to the ground in disarray, and some even snored.

The three of Chen Xiaofan touched the sides, leaned against the window of the palace, and secretly looked inside.

In the palace, the dancers were dressed in rags, they didn't care at all, they twisted their bodies and flattered them constantly.

And those men in official uniforms were drunk, holding wine glasses in their hands, dangling around, throwing away seven points and drinking three points.

Sitting on top of the palace was someone they had seen before, the handsome man who appeared in the cave and talked with Old Wei.

He reclined on the golden chair, the wine glass in his hand was shaking slightly, his face was slightly red, he seemed a little drunk.

There were singing and dancing in the Inner Imperial City, Chen Xiaofan knew that this was not what they were looking for.

Retreat to the side and go to another palace to investigate.

Thirteen's intuition can't work here. In his words, the thing that summoned him is nearby, but he can't sense the specific location when he is really close.

Helpless, they could only check one by one. They hoped that what they were looking for was in these illuminated palaces. If it was in the darkness behind them, they would not be able to finish the search in seven or eight days.

All the soldiers outside the hall fell asleep and got very drunk. I don't know what it was for celebrating.

The three of them looked around in Neihuang City as if they were in a deserted area, but they were not obstructed at all.

It's a pity that the surrounding palaces are all the same, with dancers dancing and officials having fun.

Perhaps they should not have come to the north, but to the other palaces.

Thinking this way, Chen Xiaofan came to the most remote palace, the palace here is small and exquisite, compared to the ones they checked, it is a few sizes smaller.

The three of them walked over and glanced into the hall.

There is something different about this palace!
There are no dancing women, no officials drinking wine, and it is empty without a single person.

At a glance, except for a candlestick in the room, there is nothing to be seen.

The weird room made them nervous, and they couldn't help but wonder, is this an abandoned palace?or something else?

Thirteen stared at the candlestick inside, and said in a low voice.

"Go in and have a look, I feel that what I'm looking for is here."

They came here following Shisan's feeling, looking around, there was nothing in the room, Chen Xiaofan couldn't help being puzzled by Shisan's intuition.

"you sure?"

Thirteen did not deny it, but nodded heavily.

Looking around, the surroundings of the hall are very quiet, compared with the singing and dancing palace, it looks very abrupt.

But since Thirteen was so determined, it wouldn't be a problem to go in and have a look.

Chen Xiaofan put Shisan down and called Jiang Liuying.

"Liuying, I'll go in and have a look, you take care of Shisan first."

They were in the inner imperial city, and when they came to the palace, they just waited and watched, and did not go in. First, the palace was full of people, and if they broke in suddenly, it would definitely cause trouble. Second, various strange things were born outside. Seeing how peaceful the Inner Imperial City was, they always felt uneasy.

Jiang Liuying took Thirteen, looked at Chen Xiaofan and said in a low voice.

"Be careful."

After she finished speaking, she took Thirteen to the side of the palace, found a shaded place to hide, and at the same time secretly observed through the window.

Gently pushing the door open, there was a creaking sound on the door panel.

Sounds like it hasn't been turned on in a long time.

Chen Xiaofan was very careful, he didn't enter immediately after pushing the door open, he looked left and right, and looked into the room.

The candlesticks in the room were swayed by the blowing, as if they were going to be extinguished soon.

The flickering candle light trembled slightly, Chen Xiaofan confirmed by the light of the candle that there was really nothing in the room, nothing at all.

At the same time, he also used his own strength to sense whether there was any sign of life in the room.

All is well and nothing happened.

After finishing this, he tiptoedly stepped over the crossbar in front of the door, and lifted it in with one foot. The wind behind him gently blew in, and the candlelight flickered even more violently.

His body tensed, his eyes peeked.

Seeing that everything was as usual, he was relieved to let the other foot follow in.

The room was empty, Chen Xiaofan couldn't see anything, he walked slowly towards the candlelight, wanting to see if it was the candlelight that caught Shisan's attention.

Just as he was walking forward, he heard Jiang Liuying's voice outside the door.

"Xiaofan, you are standing at the door, are you not ready to go in yet?"

Hearing this, Chen Xiaofan felt a chill behind him, he was obviously already in the room
Turning his head and looking behind him, there was a person standing in front of the door, that person was his unkempt self.
There are oddities in the room!
"It's all right. It's empty inside, let's go."

Chen Xiaofan who was standing in front of the door grinned and said, Jiang Liuying came to his side in response, and they turned and left with Shisan.

Chen Xiaofan was in the room, wondering, who is the person at the door?Why did he take Jiang Liuying away?
He wanted to speak, but found himself unable to speak, as if he had lost the ability to speak.

With a movement of his body, he wanted to stop Jiang Liuying from leaving with that person. When he moved his body, the candles in the room flickered, and suddenly there were people standing around him.

Those people's bodies are transparent, and through them they can even see the shadow of the river drifting away outside the door.

Chen Xiaofan stretched out his hand, about to push away these strange figures in front of him, but he seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, unable to escape at all.

He could only watch Jiang Liuying go away, and could only watch the door close gently.

The door closed softly, this time without a sound.

Chen Xiaofan was caught in the candlelight and surrounded by countless strange figures in front of him.

His legs seemed to be numb, unable to move apart, unable to walk.

"who are you!?"

Chen Xiaofan still had some residual strength in his body, he used his strength to speak out, but this voice was invisible and belonged to his heart.

The figures blocking him heard his voice, turned their heads quickly one by one, and stared at him firmly.

I felt a chill in my heart, seeing the weird figure in front of me, their faces were all the same.

All thirteen.

Old, young, young, older, woman, man, old man.

They were dressed in different clothes, but their faces were all carved out of Shisan's template.

Chen Xiaofan couldn't help but think of the curse of the royal family that Old Wei mentioned in the cave.

In the year Shisan was born, the faces of the people in the imperial city changed, and each of them gradually grew towards Shisan's appearance, becoming more and more similar and outrageous.

These people in front of them are not entities, they are more like souls, the souls of the royal family in the imperial city.

They looked at Chen Xiaofan and said in unison.

"Why... do you want to bring the prince back."

"why?"

Keep silent, the prince should say Thirteen, it seems that the souls in the imperial city are very dissatisfied with him.

"Why do you want to bring him back?"

The voices of the souls kept ringing in his ears, Chen Xiaofan watched calmly, not flustered.

Everything is so weird, he seems to be trapped in this too, but there is a little flaw.

He was originally a soul, and in this world, or in these worlds, they, people from the outside world, have no entity.

It was originally a soul, so how could it be taken away again?

Moreover, Chen Xiaofan knew that there was power in his body, the strength that Su Dahai bestowed on him has not disappeared.

Based on this, he understood that everything in front of him was just an illusion, a powerful illusion.

"Are you also a member of the royal family?"

Looking at the candlestick, Chen Xiaofan asked in a cold voice.

The expressions of the souls changed, it seemed that Chen Xiaofan's words had pierced their pain, and they rushed towards him with ferocious faces.

"Why do you want to bring the prince back!?"

They rushed towards Chen Xiaofan frantically, but he remained motionless.

Unmoved like a mountain in the wind and rain, the waves of the soul are all vain.

"The candlestick is your body, and your remnant soul is inside."

"Don't play tricks, you can create illusions, and I can see through your techniques."

"My body is still at the door, and I haven't gone far."

Chen Xiaofan said one sentence after another, the complexions of the souls gradually faded away, they were no longer manic or crazy.

"How did you see through it?"

Chen Xiaofan smiled and said lightly:
"you guess!"

The souls sighed helplessly.

Then the souls in the room gradually dissipated, and finally only an old man in front of the candle was left.

"Who are you? What are you going to do?"

Chen Xiaofan was still in the room, and was also in the illusion, he untied the illusion, but he didn't untie it completely, obviously he had something to say.

The old man raised his head, and she was actually an old lady. Her face was still the same as Thirteen's, but instead of being ferocious, it was a little more kind.

"I am Thirteen's mother, the true queen"

Chen Xiaofan frowned, his heart was beating violently.
