At this time, hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, Shen Chengqi said inwardly that it was bad, but it was too late.

The door was pushed open with a bang, and Shitou's panicked voice came in: "Your Highness! It's bad, why did all the guards in the courtyard faint?"

His little face was pale with fright, and he rushed in fearing that something might happen to his master, but the moment his eyes saw Shen Chengqi dressed as a guard, he was completely stunned.

"His... Your Highness? What are you doing?"

Shen Chengqi's heart sank, but his face was calm and he said: "Stone, you are back, did you find what I wanted you to look for?"

Shi Shi was completely bewildered by the scene in front of him. After thinking about it carefully, he understood instantly. He took a few steps back and said in disbelief, "This... you have been saying for the past few days that you have amnesia, and you can't even remember the way you walked in the palace. Stop, just to hint that I will find out the structure of the entire palace for you, and then escape!?"

"That's right, Shitou, you're pretty smart, you don't need me to say more to understand what I mean." Shen Chengqi nodded expressionlessly, stretched out his hand in front of him and said, "You've done a good job these days, you should inquire about I have also found out all the people who arrived, and now it is time to give me the road map I got."

It was only now that Shi Shi suddenly realized that he couldn't believe that his master, who had always been calm and peaceful, had such deep calculations in his heart. He had clearly made all the preparations for this day.

"His Royal Highness, are you... are you crazy? With your current status, you can only die if you leave the palace. Not only will the prince not let you go, but even the Third Highness will not give up easily. The servant cannot watch you go to die!"

Shi Shi pushed his hands back hard, his whole body shrank back, his face flushed with excitement.

Shen Chengqi originally wanted to get the road map without telling him, and then leave without anyone noticing, but it was all because of Shen Yinbei's dog slaves who came to deliver the medicine, forcing him to start early, which made Shi Shi Hit right.

With his stubborn nature, knowing that he was going to escape, he might not compromise so easily.

"Shitou, you know better than me how the relationship between you and my master and servant has always been. Don't force me to speak harshly. Bring me the road map."

Shi Shi shook his head vigorously, tears streaming down his face, "Your Highness is not a slave who will not help you, but how can you get out of this huge palace by yourself? Even if you get out by chance, how will you live? Third Highness treats you How can you be willing to make him sad when you are so affectionate and righteous?"

When Shen Chengqi heard this, he immediately lost his patience. He opened and shut his mouth all day long because of Shen Yinbei. He had already reached such a situation and it was all caused by Shen Yinbei. He only saw the superficial surface, so what right did he have to push back?

"Enough, don't need to say more, if you are willing to follow Shen Yinbei and wait for me to leave, you can let him go. Now that I have not left, I am still your master. Now I order you to bring the road map!"

Seeing that he didn't let go, Shitou's stubborn temper also came up. He didn't understand how his honest and gentle master became so abnormal. Even if this Yingyuan is not good in every way, at least he can eat and drink without worrying about it. dead end.

He chattered on and on, crying and persuading Shen Chengqi so loudly, he had already made up his mind, and it was imperative to leave the palace, no one could stop him, even this little servant who had treated him kindly It doesn't work either.

Seeing the time go by bit by bit, Shen Chengqi was burning with anxiety, if he delays any longer, the sky will be dawn!

In desperation, he looked away, took out a small box from his cuff, and let Ah Yuan out.Ah Yuan was also very clever, she understood Shen Chengqi's meaning in an instant, quietly climbed off the table, and climbed up along the stone's ankle.

Shi Shi only felt a tingling pain in his feet. When he lowered his head, he saw a fist-sized white flesh worm wrapped around his feet, baring his teeth fiercely. Countless sharp thorns protruded from the inside of his body. The tip of the head flickered with a strange light in the candle lamp, as if spitting some venom.

"Ah!" Shi Shi was frightened by this bug many times, and now he was even more frightened to run around in place when his ankle was entangled by it.

Shen Chengqi rubbed his forehead, only felt that things were getting more and more absurd, so he simply took the opportunity to go behind the stone, raised his hand and slashed the back of his neck fiercely.

"I'm sorry... Stone, don't blame me."

The stone was hit by this blow, and immediately rolled his eyes and fell to the ground. Seeing that he was done, Ah Yuan immediately put away the sharp thorns all over his body, and curled up into a handful of harmless balls. The viciousness just now.

Shen Chengqi sighed helplessly, picked it up, and poked it at the chubby belly: "Okay, I can't tell, your name Dementor Gu is not for nothing."

Ah Yuan twisted, opened her mouth as if to yawn, curled up lazily in Shen Chengqi's hands, as if to say: "Didn't he listen to you to scare him?"

***

On the night of early spring, the weather is still slightly chilly, and the occasional night wind that blows over also brings a trace of coolness into the bones.

Although the location of Yingyuan is remote and there are no people passing by around at this time, if you want to leave the palace, you must pass by the bustling front yard, which is always guarded by heavy soldiers, and if you don't pay attention, your previous achievements may be wasted.

Shen Chengqi felt a little apprehensive, after bypassing a few scattered guards who were watching the night, he lowered the guard's hat on his head, and hurried forward, the muscles of his whole body were tense, his attention was highly concentrated, he was afraid of meeting any acquaintances.

He followed the road map on the stone, turned seven times and eight times, and finally reached the center of the entire palace, but at this moment, a group of guards with swords came up to him.

Shen Chengqi's footsteps faltered immediately, and then he pretended to be nonchalant and walked forward. When they passed by and the heart that was raised in his throat was finally about to let go, the guard behind him suddenly stopped him.

"Wait...don't go yet."

Shen Chengqi pretended not to hear, and continued to move forward with his head buried, but a person behind him suddenly grabbed his collar. He hurriedly lowered his hat, squeezed out a particularly doggy smile and said, "This big brother is called the little one." ?"

The guard gave him a condescending look, and said sinisterly: "This brother looks strange, where are you from?"

Shen Chengxi's eyes flashed, and his heart was a little anxious. He didn't know many places in this palace, and there were only a few places that he could name. Yingyuan is a cold palace, so it can't be said, so other places...

"The younger one is a recruit. He has been working in the mansion of His Highness the Third Highness for a few days after entering the palace."

"Third Highness..." The head guard showed a half-smile expression on his face, he turned around and looked at the people behind him, and smiled at each other.

"It turns out that the servants in the Third Highness's house can still speak personal words. Seeing that you usually pull [-] million, those who don't know think that your Third Highness is about to ascend the throne."

Shen Chengqi guessed the identities of these people as soon as he heard this, and said repeatedly: "The third highness usually conducts in-depth inspections, and rarely cares about us servants, so if you offend the big brothers, I will apologize to you, I hope Brothers, can you speak kindly to our master in front of His Highness the Second Highness."

"Well, it's still like that." The guard felt relieved at the words, they are the people next to the heir to the throne, can a little third son compete with their highness?

"Since you are the person next to His Highness the Third Highness, it's just right. We have something that the Second Highness gave to the Third Highness here, so you can go for us. The brothers still have to drink flower wine, how to explain to the master about you Better figure it out."

As they spoke, a few people arrogantly threw a handful of memorials to Shen Chengqi, gave him a disdainful look, turned around and walked forward, regardless of Shen Chengqi's identity.

Shen Chengqi stood in place holding a bunch of things in astonishment, froze for a moment, then couldn't help laughing.

God blessed him, he was still thinking about how to get close to Shen Yinbei's house, but now he was given a fair reason, and it really didn't take much effort.

Shen Yinhao, an idiot, was afraid that he didn't want to see the task entrusted to him by Shen Lao Er, so he wanted to bully his younger brother to help him, but he really didn't use his brain to think about it. It is equivalent to giving him more opportunities to seize power, which is really stupid.

Shen Chengqi sighed in his heart, and felt that this matter had nothing to do with him at all. When Shen Yinbei took what he wanted, everyone would break up. It's best not to see each other in this life!

According to the previous plan, he arrived at Shen Yinbei's house smoothly, hid in a corner and took off his bodyguard uniform, revealing his blue clothes underneath, and then walked in openly with a large handful of pocketbooks.

Everyone in Shen Yinbei knew him, Shen Chengqi. At this moment, they were surprised to see His Highness appearing at the door so openly.

"Your Highness, why did you come here? Over at Yingyuan...?"

Shen Chengqi knew what he was going to ask, and curled the corners of his mouth with a smile, "Yin Bei promised me to come and go freely, don't you know? I went to Zangshuge for a walk in the morning."

"But... but His Highness the Second Highness is out of the house today, I'm afraid you won't be able to see him."

Shen Chengqi raised the things in his hand, "I know that my second brother is not here, but he left these things at my place this morning. I think they are all important affairs of the country, and I can't delay them, so why don't I give them to him now?" Are you here?"

What he said was impeccable. On the one hand, he did have the book in his hand, proving that he was not lying. On the other hand, he hinted at the importance of their thing, and no one can afford it if it is delayed.

One sentence blocked the mouths of all the guards, everyone knew that Shen Chengqi was just a crippled man walking and now came alone, fearing that nothing would happen, so they let him into the mansion like this.

Shen Chengqi sneered in his heart, followed the little eunuch who led the way all the way to Shen Yinbei's room, and found that there was no one there.

He turned around and smiled at the little eunuch, and said gently: "I want to sit here for a while and wait for the second brother to come back. You should be busy first, so you don't have to look after me."

The little eunuch had long heard that His Royal Highness was gentle and cowardly, but now seeing that pale and thin face, he was relieved, and after saying yes, he closed the door respectfully.

Shen Chengqi closed his eyes and stood there silently for a while, even though Shen Yinbei was not here, he seemed to be able to smell his body in this room, the smell was soft and calm at first, but it was spicy and pungent when he sniffed carefully His taste is exactly the same as his own.

He opened his eyes to stabilize his momentary trance, looked around vigilantly, and pulled Ah Yuan out of his sleeve.

Ah Yuan followed him a few times along the way, and now his eyes were shining, his chubby body arched, and he looked at him blankly.

Shen Chengqi poked its stomach, and said in a low voice: "Do you still remember that it was said in "Bai Chong Fang" that the soul-absorbing Gu eggs poured into the body will be poisoned even if the adult worms do not grow?"

Ah Yuan didn't understand what he meant by asking this, so she nodded obediently.

"So, even if I didn't drink the decoction for 49 days, my body is already poisoned. If I don't detoxify, I will lose my appetite more and more, and finally starve to death?"

Ah Yuan nodded.

Shen Chengqi's face became more and more gloomy. Although he knew that this would happen, he still couldn't help but feel pained when he confirmed with his own eyes the scandalous things Shen Yinbei had done to him.

Originally, he was glad that he didn't have Dementor Gu in his body, so he didn't have to worry about being restrained by Shen Yinbei, but that day after he read the "Hundred Chong Fang" carefully, he realized that things were far from as simple as he thought.

Soul-absorbing Gu, whether it is an adult or a larva, is extremely vicious. Once it gets on it, it is difficult to touch. Once the adult is bred, there is no cure for it, and it will become the puppet of the person who cast the Gu in this life, but the larva has a way to cure it. , This is also the reason why he must come to Shen Yinbei before fleeing the palace.

As the saying goes, if there is a cause, there must be an effect. If you want to get something, you must first learn to lose it. Although the soul-absorbing Gu is powerful, it has a very disadvantage, that is, if the person who lays the Gu wants to get the young eggs, he must feed the adult insects with blood, and wait for the females. When the worm lays eggs, all the sharp thorns in the body should be inserted into the body of the Gu person, and suck blood while laying eggs. At this time, the sharp thorns in the skin will release venom. If the Gu person does not take the antidote in time will die immediately.

Therefore, if Shen Yinbei is the one who played a trick on him, then there must be an antidote he himself took in this room!

Feeling his fingers being entangled by something soft, Shen Chengqi withdrew his thoughts and found that A Yuan was wrapping around his fingers like a baby.

Shen Chengqi sighed, and asked earnestly: "Since you can give birth, Ah Yuan, you must be inseparable from Shen Yinbei's blood. Tell me the truth, can you accurately distinguish the color of that blood in this room?" smell?"

It was rare for Ah Yuan to see him so serious, his chubby body stood up suddenly, staring at him with shining eyes, then shyly twisted as if to say: Tuyan, don't you know that serious men are the most attractive!It's fine to ask someone to do something, why use the beauty trick!

Then he didn't dare to sink the corner of Chengxi's cramp mouth, he crawled out from his palm with a bulging, and then began to search the whole room seriously.

Although his movements were slow, they were extremely serious. Although Shen Chengqi was afraid of Shen Yinbei's sudden appearance, he didn't dare to rush at this critical moment, so he could only hold his breath and wait quietly.

After a long time, when even Shen Chengqi was about to give up, Ah Yuan suddenly trembled as if he had been shocked, and then began to squirm in excitement, making a chi-chi sound from his mouth.

Shen Chengqi's eyes lit up, and then he ran over, only to find that A Yuan stopped at the corner between Shen Yinbei's bed and the wall.

He raised his eyebrows in confusion, could it be that Shen Yinbei hid the antidote in the cracks?

"Well, are you sure there is a smell of his blood here?"

Ah Yuan nodded vigorously, and poked her tail inward vigorously, as if she couldn't wait.

Shen Chengqi's heart was pounding, he took a deep breath and squatted down, he stretched his fingers into the cracks and groped, but he found a raised Chinese character under the base of the wall, and rubbed it with his hands, it seemed to be a "six" character .

He swallowed, and suddenly had a very bad illusion, he withdrew his finger and hesitated.

Ah Yuan saw that he was about to succeed, remembering to adjust up and down, and bit his sleeve to urge him to act quickly.

Shen Chengqi stabilized his mind, the heart in his chest was beating like crazy for some reason, he was almost unable to breathe, what was going on with this feeling of imminent danger?

He closed his eyes, stretched out his fingers to touch the raised "six characters" and pressed down lightly, then the entire bed rose up, the ground at his feet sank suddenly, and a deep dark passage appeared in front of him.

Shen Chengqi's lips kept trembling, he stared at the murals on the corridor of this secret passage for a long time, his eyes suddenly became sour, and a line of tears fell unconsciously.

Shen Yinbei... Is this the biggest secret in your heart?
