An Jie left the city without any danger. His mind was heavy. When he entered the forest, he ignored the stumbling of the branches and grass roots, and walked forward quickly, not even caring that his face was cut by the branches.

After running wildly for seven or eight days like this, the little donkey was so tired that it lost its hair, and An Jie slowed down under the call of the little shadow man.

"Master!" The little shadow man whispered in his ear again.

When An Jie thought that if the little shadow man spoke, something bad would happen, he couldn't help feeling a little anxious: "What's wrong?"

Sure enough—"Something is following us."

An Jie swallowed a sigh of extreme boredom, and drew out his iron sword to be vigilant about his surroundings.

"Who? Come out!"

After a while, amidst rustling sounds, a small figure stepped out on a dead branch.

"Meow, why have you become so fierce?" A voice as soft and greasy as a child sounded.

"cat?"

Isn't it the kitten brought out from the garden by An Jie?

But he was embarrassed when he called out, because the cat didn't tell him its name at all, so it was a bit... embarrassing.

"Stupid, I have a name now, and the owner named me Chubby." The cat walked to Anjie and asked him to hug him, "Can I exchange my name with yours now? "

"Of course." An Jie was extremely ashamed. He remembered that when he first met the cat, he felt restless and did not show the politeness that should be done when making friends. "My name is An Jie, I am sorry to tell you now."

"It's okay, I just didn't have a name to tell you at that time."

"Then why did you come here, Chubby?" An Jie was a little puzzled, "Your master asked you to come here?"

"If it wasn't for this kind-hearted guy, I wouldn't have appeared here." At this time, a familiar voice sounded, and a tall figure walked out of the forest with a fresh-faced expression on his face. Impatient and arrogant.

"Shopkeeper!" An Jie was extremely surprised. He didn't expect to see the shopkeeper who sold him the blue lantern here. He couldn't help but glanced at the kitten in his arms again.

"Don't come with me yet." The shopkeeper threw a set of clothes to An Jie and said, "Put on, my caravan is about to enter the city, hurry up."

As he said that, he sized An Jie Yitong critically: "Your appearance is too conspicuous now, it would be too naive to sneak into the city like this."

An Jie was taken aback for a moment, and quickly realized that he knew that the shopkeeper and Qiubi had received news to help him, and couldn't help but blush.

He sent Chubby back to the owner's arms, and asked while changing his clothes, "What's the situation now?"

"For you, the situation may not be very good. How can you become a wanted criminal?" The shopkeeper replied, "There are guards patrolling the city day and night, and your portrait is posted on the streets-speaking of it, You and the queen really look alike, and some people say that you cheated the king and poisoned the king while the queen was away, so the queen vowed to catch you and shave off your face."

An Jie sneered, and said: "If it was really me who poisoned you, can the queen catch me with the guards' day and night patrols? If it was really me who did the poisoning, I would have escaped long ago, and there is no way I can come back! The patrols in the city will only In vain!"

As he said that, he gritted his teeth: "He is relying on me to come back, I dare say that he is the real culprit!"

The shopkeeper also frowned, and said: "It's really a complicated situation, you have to pay attention... Cough, Chubby said you need my help, so I have to help you this time, don't think that I believe you, for your own good .”

Chubby was already helpless with his master's duplicity, and added in a low voice: "I know you must want to enter the city, that's what your story told me."

"Actually, I can go around the city for safety, but it's a waste of time, so I'd rather take the risk." An Jie couldn't help but smile, winked at Chubby, and said gratefully: "Anyway, thank you Your heroic help, when I get out of the present predicament, I will definitely repay you."

"Okay, don't waste time, hurry up and enter the city." The owner said, "The innkeeper is waiting for you, and I will send you directly to him after entering the city. His little guild will go to the forest tonight Bring back the firewood you need, and you can hide in his car and go out of town."

An Jie never imagined that so many people would come to help him at a critical moment when he traveled all the way.

He held back his tears and said again: "Thank you, thank you."

An Jie changed his clothes, and used the materials provided by the grocery store owner to camouflage his face—he pinched a big nose for himself, filled in a fish eye, painted his lips white, and painted his face yellow, like a terminally ill people.

He mixed into the shopkeeper's caravan, passed the inspection of the guards, and quickly entered the city.

Just like what the shop owner said, the atmosphere in the city was very tense, as if it was about to drip water, and no one dared to stay on the road for too long, because the guards coming and going gave people great pressure and fear.

"We must quickly catch the criminal who endangers the country."

Someone beside him muttered in a low voice, An Jie nodded quickly and echoed a few words in a low voice.

The group soon came to a street. There were two hotels on this street, one was bustling and the other was dilapidated, but... An Jie stared at it for a long time, feeling that the locations of these two hotels didn't seem to match the memory?

He was at a loss, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder and called him, "Hurry up and move the flour in!"

An Jie hurriedly picked up a bag of flour and walked into the shop, but saw a familiar face frowned and shouted, while pulling his arm and walking forward, as if he was in a hurry: "Hurry up! Don't get in my way!" guest!"

An Jie didn't dare to speak, he only whispered when he got to the back of the kitchen, "Boss, what's going on?"

But seeing the man who was supposed to be the owner of the dilapidated hotel suddenly transformed into a straight back, neat and elegant, he pretended to look around, but whispered in his mouth: "My friend, you are in trouble, everyone in the kitchen has been killed. I chased it away, and there is a set of clothes inside, you go and change quickly. The person who is going to carry firewood in the forest is already waiting for you at the back door, you can start when you are ready."

"Boss, thank you. I will come back to repay you when the matter is over." An Jie felt his eyes were hot and swollen, and he almost burst into tears.

"You've helped me. If it wasn't for your advice, I wouldn't be what I am today." The boss smiled, "Go, my friend."

An Jie hurried into the kitchen, changed his clothes, wrapped his hair with a turban, and brushed his long hair to cover half of his face. Then he followed the boss's instructions and went to the back door to fight with the firewood worker. After saying hello, they sat on the firewood cart with him and set off for the outside of the city.

The diesel cart was dirty and broken, and it was impossible to go through the main entrance, so An Jie and the two went out through the small gate.

There weren't many guards at the small gate, so they checked casually and let An Jie and the two go out.

Finally at the entrance of the forest, the little firewood worker put An Jie down and said, "Let's go, friend of the boss, I'm going to complete my task. I wish you a smooth journey ahead."

"Thank you and may God bless you!"

An Jie thanked him, got into a small path, and ran away quickly.

An Jie knew all the roads in the forest by heart. At this time, he was afraid of being bumped into, so he chose the most remote and difficult road to run to his destination.

Perhaps there were many obstacles on the road before, but now it has become smooth sailing.

An Jie ran for most of the night, and finally returned to the cabin where he left at first.

The cabin was visibly dilapidated, overgrown with weeds, and the wood on the roof had become rotting.

An Jie's heartbeat almost stopped, he thought—couldn't the seven knights resist the claws coming from behind?

He didn't dare to think about it, he walked to the door in a daze and pushed it open, but saw a person sitting in the shadow, and stood up when he heard the voice: "Who?"

An Jie was taken aback for a moment, and he recognized the voice of the tallest of the seven knights, and quickly said, "It's me, An Jie, where is the prince?"

The knight also hurried over, looked at An Jie, and was stunned: "You are not An Jie!"

An Jie thought that he had made a disguise, so he quickly took off the things on his face and said, "I am An Jie, and I just made a little disguise."

The knight carefully distinguished his appearance, and finally confirmed that he said: "You are finally back! Not long after you left, we realized that there was something wrong with the wind, so we took the prince to hide in a deeper part of the forest. We found a cave. We dug a cellar, and the prince is there. In case you come back and find no one, we will have a person waiting for you here every day."

"What did your doctor say? Is the prince still alive?"

"It can be saved." An Jie said relieved, "But we still need to find someone, a dwarf. He is the guardian of all living things in this place. Only he knows how to solve the prince's situation."

"A dwarf?" the knight repeated with some surprise.

"what happened?"

"I think I may know where he is," said the knight, "because the dwarf told us where we were hiding."
