On the fifth night of Rose Castle, Xie Sha did not go.

He hid the mirror, and just in case, he didn't fall asleep all night, reviewing the official duties that he didn't deal with during the day because he had a rest with Yu Xingzhi in the imperial study.

until dawn.

The beam of flames flashed by.

The night passed faster than Xie Sha expected. At the beginning, the days felt like years, and then when I lowered my head and concentrated on processing the memorial, a few hours suddenly passed by.

The mirror is hidden in a hidden treasure box not far from Xie Sha's study, and he refused Yu Xingzhi to accompany him, lest if he was pulled into the Rose Castle at night, Yu Xingzhi would be forced to go back with him, and he would fall short and lose again. that person.

When it was dawn, Xie Sha breathed a sigh of relief.

He walked over and opened the window.

The night in the distance has turned white, and the first light of the sky from the distant horizon spreads, like a fallen star passing by the lonely tree beside the wilderness road, when it comes to face, the wind exudes a clear and refreshing slightly cool.

Xie Sha opened his eyes and watched without blinking. The world is so beautiful, and he wants to see it with that person.

After a few breaths, a shrill scream resounded through the palace.

Someone else died.

This time, more people died.

Above the court hall, there was no sound, everyone was pale and their heads were lowered.

Xie Cha on the dragon chair watched them quietly, but the corners of his lips were raised. He didn't laugh, and said in a very soft voice, "Why did these dead ministers appear in the court at night? Considering that they were killed, I now want to know why they appear here secretly and what they want to do?"

What else could it be, forming a party in private, gathering in secret, meeting the court at night, which is equivalent to conspiracy.

Xie Sha's voice was emotionless: "I'm not dead yet, are you impatient?"

"Your Majesty will not dare to wait until death."

"The behavior of these ministers, now that they are dead, no one can explain and excuse. The most urgent thing is another murder case, and the distance is so close to the emperor, His Majesty's safety is the top priority!"

Xie Sha looked over, but no one looked up.

"I have given you the greatest convenience. Not only can you not find out the real culprit of the bloody case, but you will even be blind if you look at the secrets of the party under your nose. If that's the case, what else do you want to investigate?"

The young His Majesty seldom speaks loudly, and he doesn't like to lose his temper, but that doesn't mean that his majesty is not serious.

In the morning of the same day, several ministers with important affairs in the government were removed from their posts for investigation. The officials suspected of dereliction of duty in the incident last night, no matter whether they were high-ranking or not, were all dealt with and replaced with His Majesty's own people, including Dali Temple, which has been investigating the case.

After retreating, Xie Sha summoned these people.

"I gave you the opportunity. Whether you can sit still or not is up to you. You can be incompetent, but you must be obedient."

"From now on, everything related to this case should be reported to me first."

"Also, I don't want to hear anyone talking about the connection between my alchemist and this case anywhere."

……

It was a long day.

When Xie Sha came back in the morning, Yu Xingzhi was still sleeping.

"Let him sleep."

Xie Sha couldn't bear to wake him up, so he gently stroked his face, covered him with a quilt, and began to review the memorial alone in the foreign cabinet.

"Why is Xingzhi so tired, when did he sleep last night?"

When the attendant served tea, Xie Sha asked casually.

The other party hesitated for a moment: "Master Xingzhi fell asleep normally last night."

Xie Sha stopped writing and looked up at him: "Why do you hesitate?"

The attendants are Xie Cha's people, and the people for Yu Xingzhi are Xie Cha's most trusted people.

The attendant lowered his head and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, when Chou last night, Lord Xingzhi was not in the palace for a period of time. The subordinates thought that Lord Xingzhi just got up temporarily at night, so they searched around, but when they came back, they found him sleeping there peacefully. Didn't go anywhere."

Xie Sha had no emotion on his face: "Are you sure about the time?"

"I can't be sure. It's the end of the day when I see the lord is ugly again."

Xie Sha lowered his head and said flatly: "Go down, don't tell anyone."

After a while, when Xie Cha's memorial was about to be reviewed, Yu Xingzhi finally woke up.

"You've been sleeping for a long time, aren't you feeling well?" Xie Sha brushed Yu Xingzhi's hair with a jade comb.

Yu Xingzhi closed his eyes, his upright and clean face exuded a gorgeous atmosphere in the mirror, and his rosy lips parted naturally, like a faint smile.

Kind and gentle and harmless.

"I don't know why I'm a little tired. I feel tired no matter how much I rest. Maybe I had a nightmare last night that I can't remember."

Xie Sha hugged him behind him, and looked at him in the mirror without blinking: "If it's a nightmare, just wake up. Did the stars wake up last night? Come and find me."

Yu Xingzhi shook his head lightly, looking a little tired but his eyes were still clear and gentle: "No, I'm so tired. Although I wanted to go there, His Majesty said he didn't want me to come, so he didn't get up."

Xie Sha hugged him, resting his chin on his shoulder, Qingjuan's pale face appeared to be obedient and quiet: "Well, well done, you will also listen to me like this next time."

Yu Xingzhi smiled, his eyes seemed indulgent: "Okay."

But things didn't end there.

Things seemed to be completely out of control.

At noon that day, Xie Cha also felt a little sleepy, so he slept with Yu Xingzhi for a while.

When he woke up suddenly, Yu Xingzhi was not by his side.

Xie Sha went out and found that everyone in the dormitory was asleep, under the warm orange-white sun, it was like a collective dream.

Xie Sha was about to wake them up, but suddenly saw a person.

Under the bright white sun, the man was wearing gorgeous black pajamas, his long water-like hair was loose, and he was walking alone in the palace with bare feet and wooden clogs.

The tyrannical sunlight and the black silk clothing made that person's skin look as white as glowing, but it gave off a cool feeling.

Xie Sha didn't make a sound, just looked at the person's side face without blinking.

From a distance, the person who seemed to be so beautiful and shining, could only see the slightly raised arc of the rose-colored lips, as if he was smiling.

Gentle and contemptuous, careless and condescending.

What kept Xie Sha silent was the bright and slender sword in the man's hand, and the blood dripping from the sword and his feet as he walked.

The blood all over the place spread from the outside to the inside of the palace, and slowly melted in the sunlight.

One after another, the screams interrupted the pale dream.

Xie Sha opened his eyes and found that he was still standing outside the palace, but the clouds in the sky seemed to suddenly cover the sun, and the world went dark.

Only then did I realize that the previous vision was unreal like a nightmare.

Unlike in the dream, everyone was awake, looking vigilantly at the place where the screams came from in the distance.

"Your Majesty, step back, we'll go check it out right now."

Not surprisingly, another murder case.

The difference from before is that the previous four cases happened at night, and there was only one case per day, but today it happened during the day, at noon.

After Xie Sha understood, he thought of the daydreaming hallucinations before, and immediately walked back.

There is no Yu Xingzhi on the bed in the bedroom.

"Xingzhi, Xingzhi! Have you seen where Xingzhi went? Didn't you order you to stay here? Why don't you know why people disappeared?"

"His Majesty."

Amidst Xie Sha's calm and crazy inquiry, a gentle voice sounded suspiciously.

Xie Sha paused, as if suddenly losing strength, and looked towards the source of the voice.

Yu Xingzhi's loose hair was still dripping, he was wearing a white bathrobe, his expression was gentle and friendly, and his water blue eyes were watching him with concern: "What happened? I seem to have heard a cry."

Xie Sha walked up to him and grabbed his hand: "Where did you go? I didn't see you when I woke up."

Yu Xingzhi looked at him with a good temper, his eyes reserved and reserved: "I just woke up a little hot, so I went to take a bath. Well, what's wrong, Your Majesty?"

The attendant next to him explained: "Suddenly there was another murder outside. Your Majesty was too worried about you when he saw that your lord was not there."

Yu Xingzhi's eyes narrowed slightly to look at Xie Cha, with vague tenderness that seemed to be absent: "It's my fault, and I will always let His Majesty see it in the future."

Xie Sha felt a little cold.

When the murder happened last night, Xingzhi disappeared briefly.

Now when the murder happened, Xingzhi was not by his side, he saw the suspected murderer of Xingzhi in a dreamlike state, and Xingzhi was taking a bath after waking up.

"All go out." The young His Majesty ordered suddenly.

Everyone looked at each other.

"I told you all to go out! Can't you hear me?"

His Majesty, who always whispered softly even when he was angry, suddenly became angry loudly, and no one was afraid.

But at the same time, I also understand that another murder happened in the palace during the daytime, it is really terrible, and it is normal for His Majesty to feel uneasy about it.

In the bedroom where only Xie Sha and Yu Xingzhi were left, Xie Sha's quiet face stared at Yu Xingzhi without blinking, and his fingers carefully stroked his eyebrows, the lines of his side face, the soft corners of his lips, and his slender lips. On the frail and white neck, the fingers were placed on the place where the pulse was extremely weak.

Yu Xingzhi didn't dodge, his water-blue eyes were still staring at him undefended, as gentle as if he accepted everything from Xie Sha, and the corners of his rose-like lips were naturally and harmlessly parted.

"His Majesty……"

"Is Xingzhi a vampire?" Xie Sha asked softly, with a clear and quiet expression, and his dark pupils were focused and clear.

Yu Xingzhi was slightly startled: "No."

Xie Sha looked into his eyes: "Is there really no need for blood?"

The corners of Yu Xingzhi's lips were naturally slightly opened, as if he smiled very faintly, as if probing: "Does Your Majesty want to live forever?"

Xie Sha said: "If necessary, my blood can be given to Xingzhi, so no one will die anymore."

Yu Xingzhi looked at him quietly, the curvature of his lips remained unchanged, and the haze in his water blue eyes made it hard to see the true meaning, and he whispered in an extremely soft voice: "No."

"It will be discovered, and after discovery, the stars will be lost!"

"Does Your Majesty want me?"

Xie Sha: "..."

They seemed to be talking to each other, although they looked at each other for a moment, but they said words that were completely out of tune.

Yu Xingzhi was stunned, then smiled gently and slowly, turned his head slightly to look at him, pursed his lips, touched his head gently with his fingers, and said in a very soft voice: "Are you scared?"

"Feel sorry."

On Xie Sha's clear face, the dark pupils drooped as if absent-minded, wanting to hug this person.

But Yu Xingzhi took half a step back, with a gentle and clean face, and his eyes that seemed to be closed slightly did not have much real smile, and he couldn't see the expression in his eyes clearly. He was gentle and alienated, and said softly: "The hair is wet. , will wet His Majesty."

"I'll wipe it for you."

"No, I haven't finished washing yet. Wait for a while, and I will be back soon."

He smiled lightly, slightly reserved his jaw, his handsome and flawless face was as gentle and soft as ever, he retreated from Xie Sha, and disappeared behind the screen in the bathroom.

Xie Sha closed his eyes lightly, his pale lips were pursed tightly, his Adam's apple swallowed with restraint, his clear face showed a cold and gloomy tiredness.

Xie Sha was very familiar with that person's breath. Just now, he smelled a faint smell of blood.

"In any case, the stars will be protected."

Yu Xingzhi behind the screen did not take off his bathrobe, and sat quietly in the pool.

The jade-like white and flawless face, without the slightest expression, looks gentle in the eyebrows and eyes. Like the white clothes soaked in water, there is a kind of clear fragility, as if the whole person has also turned into translucent water.

"Well, me too, no matter what, I will protect His Majesty."

……

The second killing took place at Xu time in the afternoon, when the setting sun disappeared, the sky and the earth were yellow, everything was hazy, and it was a time of magic.

His vision was also hazy, as if he suddenly woke up from a dream.

Looking at the corpses and blood all over the floor, the first time he mistook it as Chunhua and Qiufeng in his dream.

With his back facing Xie Sha, the white clothes on his body were only stained with bloodlines on the star pattern on the tail. The young man stood on the ground with a blood-dripping sword in his hand.

The dead included courtiers, nobles, royal family, and guards. The corpses fell together, as if they had no power to fight back, and were killed in an instant.

Xie Sha looked at the man's back, grabbed his hand and made him look at him.

Stubbornly staring at those water-blue eyes that were still gentle and beautiful: "Why? Didn't I say that? If you need blood, I'll give you as much as you want, isn't that enough? Why kill so many people? "

Yu Xingzhi looked at him gently, the corners of his lips were slightly parted, still clear and flawless, as if uncertain, defenseless and fragile, as if he didn't know what he had done, and looked at him trustingly: "Your Majesty, what happened?"

Xie Sha covered his eyes and hugged him tightly: "It's nothing."

He could cover the opponent's eyes, but he couldn't prevent him from smelling the blood all over the floor.

Yu Xingzhi paused slightly.

Not far away, the court lady who suddenly witnessed the scene uttered a tragic cry, stumbled and fled, shouting to kill while running.

Both froze, motionless.

A line of blood and tears fell from Yu Xingzhi's face.

Only then did Xie Sha see that his hands were stained with blood, dripping down the man's clean face like blood and tears.

The corners of the rosy lips raised slightly: "I did it."

"No!" Xie Sha hugged him tightly, gritted his teeth, "I will solve it, no one will find out..."

Yu Xingzhi's hand gently but firmly held Xie Sha's hand, and took the man's hand away from his eyes.

The water-blue eyes were filled with clear water waves, seemingly soft, and looked at Xie Cha for a moment: "How should it end? Is the me I see in His Majesty's eyes the same as I see myself?" ? Been thinking that way."

Xie Sha didn't understand, shook his head and said stubbornly, "Don't leave me."

Yu Xingzhi didn't smile: "Perhaps I shouldn't come back, but I have no choice but to come back. Your Majesty is waiting for me. I've always thought about it. The ten-year agreement may be the last time we meet in my life. If I can't come back, that person will leave." How lonely will it be before going to this world?"

The water-blue eyes are peaceful, staring at him intently, as gentle as water, but there is no smile at all.

"Isn't your Majesty surprised? I'm 44, I should be very old, but I still look the same as before."

"My time has stopped, but I don't know it. I just keep remembering that one day ten years later, I will return to His Majesty. So, I came back."

"Like me, order you to like me, like me like you like me, all the love you can feel, just like me to this extent. Be mine, even if you die, be turned into The other existence has become a dry bone, if it still has consciousness, it will also like me..."

Repeating what Xie Sha said in a gentle and soft voice, he smiled slightly, but there was only tranquility in his water-blue eyes.

"Your Majesty is so cute, it's the same as before. Although I don't know if it can be done, I promised His Majesty without permission. But in fact, I can do it."

He lowered his eyes and looked at Xie Sha who was motionless and looking at him.

"Your Majesty, please don't use that mirror again. There is no need to avenge me, and there is no murder. I don't need anyone to kill me. I will be dead before I come back. Because I want to fulfill the ten-year promise John, returned to His Majesty in a terrible form, and created these nightmares."

"Your Majesty, live a good life according to your own wishes."

Xie Sha opened his eyes wide, and there was no surprise in his black pupils. Maybe earlier, when he first saw the alchemist who had returned after a long absence, he had already noticed it.

"No, the third and fourth time, I will still find it."

Yu Xingzhi looked at him quietly, expressionless: "Even if I become so scary..."

Xie Sha was unwavering: "Next time I will tie you by my side. If you need blood, I will give it to you. I will watch closely and won't let you go out. I will keep staring at you. I will ..."

Lips as soft as roses fell on Xie Sha's pale and cold lips, preventing him from saying anything else, paused slightly, and slowly moved away.

The smiling face of that person was so beautiful that it was unreal: "Even in the mirror, I don't exist. Your Majesty, let's end the ten-year agreement."

The palace guards who rushed over in a panic found the only surviving majesty and the alchemist in his arms among the bloody corpses on the ground.

In the misty blue night, that person turned into dry bones, annihilated into fireflies, and disappeared among the stars in the sky.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

The truth is clear.

It turned out that the murderer of all the murders was the returned alchemist. When he went out to sea ten years ago to find the law of longevity, the alchemist had already died in a foreign country due to an accident.

But because he made a ten-year agreement with His Majesty before leaving, when the time approached, the alchemist's soul gained a force, allowing him to cross the mountains and seas and return to his homeland.

If the dead soul wants to maintain the appearance of the living, it needs the flesh and blood of the living, so it commits a lot of killings.

The reason why Prince Yue's lineage was killed, as well as the ministers in the court, was because Prince Yue had planned to murder the alchemist, breaking the truth that he had already died.

But the ministers planned to find a new monarch before His Majesty passed away, and betrayed His Majesty, so the alchemist also killed them.

The horrific palace fantasy night is finally over.

Except for His Majesty who lost the alchemist himself, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Except for His Majesty himself, everyone felt that it was over.

……

Night is coming.

His Majesty the Emperor was lying alone on the bed in the bedroom, his pale face was devoid of any emotion, as if all the emotions that were born as human beings were taken away with the alchemist's departure.

He held a simple bronze mirror in his hand.

Although the person said that he would no longer be seen in the mirror, Xie Sha still wanted to try.

He has resurrected that person twice, and of course the third time is also possible.

The light of the bronze mirror flashed, like a wave of water rippling under the light.

"The guest didn't come yesterday."

This is the sixth night of Rose Castle.

When Xie Sha walked into the castle hall, he found that there was no living person in it except himself.

The sixth guest who had just been transformed was lying weakly on the sofa, with two blood holes on his neck, which slowly healed up, leaving only two small red spots.

Except for the pomegranate juice in front of Xie Sha, the drink in front of everyone was blood.

Xie Sha didn't sit down, he stood in the living room and glanced around indifferently, but found no sign of the owner of the castle.

"Where is Qin Yaozu?"

The butler and the servants looked up at him, their pupils were ecstasy after exchanging blood, and no one answered.

Xie Sha didn't care about them, and walked straight towards the familiar corridor, and no one stopped him.

In the room on the southwest side of the corridor, the room where the alchemist was first found, Xie Sha found nothing this time.

There was no one inside.

Xie Sha paused, as if his heart was also empty.

After a few breaths, Xie Sha came out from the inside and searched for one house after another.

During this period, the housekeeper and servants came to stop it.

"The master is not here, you are too rude."

There was no emotion on Xie Sha's face, he only touched the sword in his hand, and said softly: "The master is not here, do you want to try to kill you this time?"

All the vampires looked at him like a madman, but backed away in fear.

"Really? Let him turn it over."

In the distance, a familiar, slow and boring voice was vaguely heard.

Xie Sha paused, turned around abruptly and walked back, quickly went downstairs and returned to the hall.

"The master is not here!"

"Go away."

There was indeed no sign of Tan Yaozu in the hall, but Xie Sha saw the smoggy blue coat that he took off not long ago.

He immediately pushed away the blocking person and walked upstairs.

This time, more people blocked him, and everyone showed their true faces as vampires, with their sharp teeth facing him.

Xie Sha's face was calm, and his quiet and clear face was never someone who admired violence and had no patience, but this time, he drew his sword without saying a word.

"Well, what is this doing?"

When the crowd confronted each other, a door behind Xie Sha opened.

Tan Yaozu, who was wearing a blue sweater, was leaning lazily against the beige door, holding a glass of red wine in his hand wearing a sapphire ring, tilting his head slightly, and drinking it casually.

Drinking red wine is like drinking water.

Only maroon eyes stared at Xie Sha, who was causing trouble.

When Xie Sha looked back at him, Tan Yaozu licked his lips moistened by red wine, showed an innocent and contemptuous smile, raised his left hand and shook it casually, and brushed his long hair by his ear.

I don't know whether it is convenient to say hello, or to brush my hair.

"Well, it's been a long time. Are you playing a game of brave men besieging vampires? How about including me?"

Xie Sha walked towards him quickly.

"You said that he is untransformable."

Tan Yaozu tilted his head and looked at him with blinked eyes. It's hard to say whether he was pretending to be innocent or waiting for his next article.

Xie Sha looked at the familiar face: "You also said that you are the result of his transformation."

Tan Yaozu pursed his lips boredly, his chestnut eyes were still gentle: "I've said so many things, it's hard for you to remember these two sentences."

"Xingzhi disappeared, disappeared in front of me, and he said that he was not in the mirror."

Tan Yaozu lowered his eyes slightly, raised his chin and looked down at him condescendingly, his eyes were empty and pitiful, and he said in a childish tone: "It's unfortunate, but, what does it matter to me?"
