"It's natural!" The young man said happily, gesturing to the people behind him and said, "I, Yuan, have always kept my word, and today I just came to invite Priest Cheng to come back to the City Lord's Mansion with us. As long as Cheng The priest has left with us, so naturally we will not embarrass others, I, Yuan, would like to swear on my reputation, Priest Cheng, you can rest assured!"

Cheng Ning pursed his lips and was about to speak...

"Cheng Ning, do you dare to promise to try!" Cheng Wei said suddenly loudly: "Do you dare to leave and try?" Cheng Wei glared at the young man fiercely and said, "You despicable villain, how dare you take the money?" Wu Chi and Song Wen are threatening to make us miss Brother Li, do you dare to fight with me alone? And... I will warn you one last time, don't touch my father, dare to touch him, I absolutely want you to walk around without eating!"

When Cheng Wei was in a hurry, he would always blurt out Cheng Ning's name like this, and Cheng Ning gradually got used to it, and whenever this happened, Cheng Ning knew how deeply Cheng Wei worried about him.

Therefore, Cheng Ning also understood the reason why Cheng Wei would miss.

"Hehehe..." The young man who claimed to be Yuan looked at Cheng Wei sideways and laughed, his eyes were full of disdain, and he looked at Cheng Wei mockingly and sneered: "Master Cheng, it's good to be young and energetic. In this "Zhusui City", it is quite capable to call the wind and call the rain, but I advise you, when the crops are ripe, you know that you are humble and not arrogant at all. You don't know how big the outside world is, you don't know You may hurt someone by an unintentional mistake!" The man shook his head and said with unknown meaning: "You are too naive!"

"you……"

"I'll go with you!" Cheng Ning couldn't help but speak loudly without waiting for Cheng Wei. Cheng Ning said calmly and decisively. After he finished speaking, there was a strange silence in the yard. Protecting Wen Jing's hand, he walked down the steps, stood directly opposite the young man, and said coldly to the man who was about the same height as him, "Then, I also advise you, since I'm going with you Now, since your goal has been achieved, if I find out that you dare to touch anyone around me, if you dare to cause them a little harm..." Cheng Ning raised his eyebrows slightly, and half-closed his eyes to see Looking at the man: "What you said to my Wei'er, I will give it back to you. The world is so big that a certain sentence you may accidentally miss can make you disappear inexplicably. This is not a strange thing! You Ha ha, how naive!" After speaking mockingly, Cheng Ning strolled around the man with his hands behind his back, and walked behind him, staring coldly at the cold hands that were put on the necks of everyone in Mu Zhai. Jian: "What? Don't you let go of our people in Mu Zhai?"

A group of soldiers looked at each other, and all their eyes were on the leading man. The latter looked very embarrassed at the moment, but he also knew that the man in white standing next to him would not back down. Although he was not reconciled, the man held back his resentment, and after a moment of silence, , also had to wave to his subordinates and said: "Let them go, a person like Priest Cheng will definitely not do something that breaks his promise!"

Everyone hesitated, and finally let go of the people in Mu Zhai, but in the next moment, they all cleverly surrounded Cheng Ning in the center, separating the distance between him and everyone in Mu Zhai, one by one. Putting his hands on the hilt of his sword, he looked at the people in Mu Zhai warily.

Cheng Wei's "dark cloud" was left at the door. He didn't have any weapons at hand. Seeing Cheng Ning surrounded by them, even if he had nothing in his hands, he was the first to rush over and shouted at them. : "Let go of my father, if you want to catch me, catch me. My father is a man who can't even kill fish. How could he kill your family? Are you courting death if you dare to plant blame on him?"

"Back off!" Cheng Ning suddenly yelled loudly. Surrounded by many soldiers, he didn't show any signs of timidity at all. Instead, he quietly looked at Cheng Wei, with a hint of apology in his clear eyes. His brows were furrowed fiercely, his hands in his sleeves were twisted together forcefully, seeing Cheng Wei's light brown eyes full of worry for himself, Cheng Ning breathed out and settled down. He calmed down and softened his tone: "Wei'er, listen to your father and take care of the house obediently. They are looking for me, but they won't do anything to me. I'm fine, but you..." Cheng Ning paused while speaking. After a pause, he bit his lips lightly before continuing: "It's time for you to know something. When I come back, I'll tell you all about it, so you... Can you help me take care of my house?"

"I……"

"Promise me!" Cheng Ning didn't give Cheng Wei a chance to speak at all, and looked at him seriously and said.

"..." Cheng Wei opened his lips and wanted to say something, but Cheng Ning's serious eyes made his heart sink, and he was very unwilling, but under Cheng Ning's expectant gaze, Cheng Wei had no choice but to bite the bullet , Forced myself to calm down, finally nodded, agreed!

Cheng Ning stretched his eyebrows, and he was relieved from the bottom of his heart. A smile appeared on his handsome face that hadn't left much trace of age in decades, and he nodded, "That's good!"

Everyone in the Mu House held their breath in the end, watching Cheng Ning being taken away majestically by the city lord's mansion, and wanted to chase after them, but they were all stopped by Cheng Wei, who pursed his lips and looked extremely embarrassing. , everyone was puzzled and refuted Cheng Wei, who just stared at the direction where Cheng Ning disappeared and said: "I promised him, I will take good care of you!"

Everyone in the Mu residence was silent.

"So..." Cheng Wei continued: "Don't cause trouble for me, no one is allowed to step out of Mu Zhai without my order!" After finishing speaking, Cheng Wei turned around and took his saber and rushed quickly. After going out, he did promise to take good care of everyone in Mu's house, but he didn't promise to stay at home obediently, he would obediently watch Cheng Ning be taken away and wait for him to come back: "Cheng Ning, wait Follow me, and I will definitely rescue you!"

On the deserted street on New Year's Day, Cheng Wei galloped forward quickly, but the direction he went was not the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, but Xu's House in the opposite direction to the City Lord's Mansion!

……

Cheng Ning was taken away by the people from the city lord's mansion, and the passers-by were all talking about it, wondering why the priest Cheng was treated like this?

However, listening to the whispered discussions of those people, and seeing that the soldiers in the City Lord's Mansion were silent, and even the leader did not explain, Cheng Ning secretly laughed in his heart, and he felt a little bad in his heart But no matter what, the other party just took him away and didn't act rough on him. Cheng Ning also understood that he was also useful, so his life was not in danger for the time being, so Cheng Ning had to press his heart down. With many doubts, I plan to wait and see what happens.

Until Cheng Ning was taken by the people of the city lord's mansion and directly imprisoned in a dark, damp, cold and dark dungeon, leaving only Cheng Ning alone, and even a weak oil lamp, Cheng Ning felt Something was wrong. Taking advantage of the last moment before they closed the door, Cheng Ning grabbed the cell door in a panic and said loudly: "What do you want? Please come to me if you have anything, I... "

"Boom—" The dungeon door not far away was closed without mercy.

"You..." Cheng Ning suddenly opened his eyes wide, and darkness and deathly silence descended at the same time, surrounding him.

In an instant, Cheng Ning's instinctive chill surrounded him, causing him to retract half of his hands that were stabbed in the cells. Cheng Ning looked warily at the dark surroundings where the faint light could not be found, and subconsciously Backing away, Cheng Ning squatted down carefully until his back touched a wall, hugged his knees tightly, bit his lips and remained still, but his forehead and back gradually began to ooze Dense sweat...

"Wei'er..." Cheng Ning called out in a hoarse voice, his hoarse voice was full of uncontrollable panic, he...was afraid.

I can't help being afraid.

Cheng Ning never realized that Cheng Ning had an inexplicable fear of the dark environment after he watched things because of Huangji, but he had been by Cheng Wei's side for more than ten years, and he never realized how much this was. It's a serious matter, but now Cheng Ning realizes that he was wrong, and he realizes that he didn't pay attention to this matter all these years, but it's because he has never faced such darkness alone, never stayed in such a place alone... …

Even if he knew that the sky was bright and bright outside, and that it was only morning, the dungeon could not be seen. Except for a small oil lamp lit outside the cell where Cheng Ning was staying, other places farther away were full of It was pitch black, so pitch black that Cheng Ning felt that there was only a wall behind him, and the rest of the place was empty and boundless darkness.

After such an idea took root in Cheng Ning's mind, it spread like a weed uncontrollably, and grew wantonly!

"...No, I didn't...I didn't kill anyone, that person...I didn't kill that person, what on earth did they want to do? They framed me to kill people..." Cheng Ning was dripping with cold sweat, curled up under the corner of the wall, even trembling slightly When he got up, in such a dark place, what flashed through his mind was not only being overwhelmed and panicked facing the darkness alone, but also the nightmare that he didn't want to recall decades ago.

Gradually, the panic became more and more, and the thoughts gradually became chaotic... But Cheng Ning still hugged his knees and curled up in the corner tremblingly. ...Still did not lose his dignity, even if he bit his lips, he did not allow himself to say a word of begging for mercy, nor did he allow himself to pray to those who framed him, he knew that the other party would not do this for no reason To catch himself, the other party definitely has plans, so he has to see what they want to do?
