Chapter 44 Sudden Change in the Night

"General, general?"

Shen Chengqian looked at Long Chenyu, clutched the corner of the quilt tightly with one hand, and tentatively called out.

But no one responded.

Shen Chengqian looked at him with a pair of eyes.For a moment, he felt his heart go cold, he had never seen Long Chenyu like that.With a cold face and angry eyes, murderous intent, like Shura returning from the pool of blood in hell.

What the hell does this happen?

At this moment, Shen Chengqian didn't move, neither did Long Chenyu.The two quietly looked at each other in the bedroom where there was no candlelight, only the moonlight.They are only three feet apart, but they seem to be separated by three layers of nine heavens and a vast Milky Way.

Shen Chengqian had never felt this strange and dangerous feeling.

Now, I just feel too terrible, too chilling.

"General?" He called again softly. "Stop making trouble, you, are you bluffing me?"

Yes, it would be nice if it was just a joke.

However, for a long time, there was still no response.

Borrowing the moonlight, Shen Chengqian looked carefully at Long Chenyu's eyes.But he found that at this moment, Long Chenyu's pupils were completely devoid of spirit, like the dirty pupils of a dead person, without a gleam of brilliance.

Shen Chengqian was still huddled on the couch at a loss, but on the other side, Long Chenyu started to move.

Holding the silver knife, Long Chenyu took a few steps forward, walked to the bed, raised the big knife and chopped it down.Shen Chengqian hurriedly rolled to the side, but accidentally knocked over the carved cage next to the bed, and the small porcelain vase in the cage shattered on the ground.He suddenly pressed his hand on the broken porcelain, and there were bloody mouths all over the cut palm and wrist.

Shen Chengqian climbed a few steps towards the window, his body trembling uncontrollably.In the end, there was no strength left in the fear, just like a moth that fell to the ground, lying on the ground sadly.

He slumped on the ground and struggled to move back a few steps until his back touched the cold wall.Only one foot from the ground is a window through which the desolate moonlight falls.

Shen Chengqian looked at Long Chenyu who was approaching again, and felt that this time, he was really doomed.

For a moment, his mind turned over like a revolving lantern, all of which were sweet memories of being with Long Chenyu.Now the good old days are reappearing in my mind, it seems so ironic and so desolate.

But overnight, it is already heaven and earth.

In front of him, the big knife in Long Chenyu's hand slashed down again, and the air was filled with the sound of ice-cold cracking.Shen Cheng sat on the ground paralyzed and had nowhere to hide, so he could only wait helplessly.

Waiting, another round is over.

It's a pity that he was going to die so unclearly.

However, in the blink of an eye, the red jade bead string on his wrist suddenly burst out with an extremely dazzling blood-colored light.That burst of brilliance was very strong, and at the same time, the string of jade beads unexpectedly burst out with force, and bounced the silver bright sword in Long Chenyu's hand.

The sharp blade dropped from his hand and landed on the ground, making an extremely clear but terrifying sound.

Shen Chengqian sat on the ground, and for a moment, two lines of tears rolled down his face.

He suddenly remembered what Bai Yu had said to Lingqiu earnestly and earnestly when he said goodbye to Lingqiu.

"Lord Shen is kind to me. Just keep this thing, it will be of great use in the future. This thing is the divine jade that I tribute to the Divine Pavilion day and night. Carrying it with me can protect people from disasters."

Who would have expected that that seemingly inconspicuous thing actually saved his life now.

Shen Chengqian leaned on the wall and stood up precariously.

He told himself that he should not die.

If he is dead, how can he know the reason for what happened tonight?And how can he save Long Chenyu and restore his former sanity?Once he died, I don't know how many disasters he would leave in the world.

Yes, he can't die yet.

Just as Long Chenyu bent over to pick up the scimitar, Shen Chengqian stood up and climbed up the window rail.After that, without even a moment of hesitation, he jumped out of the window on the second floor of the small building.

Fortunately, this small building is elegant and rich, and there is a flower fence around the first floor as decoration.With such a leap, he fell straight into the flowers.The flowers and branches are delicate and the soil is soft and loose, but it doesn't hurt, it's just that the fall is dirty and it's extremely embarrassing.

Shen Cheng raised his head and looked sadly at the window of the two-story building for the last time.Afterwards, he ran quickly and fled into a forest next to the small building, and disappeared in the middle of the night within a short while.

After running like that for a long time, Shen Chengqian relaxed his tense nerves, and leaned against a small tree in the dense forest, panting unceasingly.

Then, he immediately realized that his troubles were far from over.

Long Chenyu became like this, he wanted to kill himself for no apparent reason, his mind was also unclear, and he didn't know the reason.Now, who should he turn to?

Although he brought [-] soldiers with him to go eastward to Guijiang this time, those soldiers were all staying in the outer city, and they were probably several miles away from where he was.

However, he didn't care about that much.

Shen Chengqian first escaped from the forest, looked up at the Big Dipper, and confirmed the general orientation of east, west, north, south.Then, he ran towards the south gate of the palace.

However, he found himself thinking about this matter too simply.

It was already late at night, and the curfew had long been enforced in the Guijiang Imperial Palace, and the south gate of the imperial palace was also locked.He saw from a long distance that there was even a group of soldiers guarding there.Now that he is covered in dirt, bare feet, and disheveled, those soldiers will surely capture him as a villain.Perhaps, without even asking a single question, he would kill him on the spot.

His last life door has become a dead end again.

Shen Chengqian had no choice but to go back to the forest to hide.

It was deep winter at this time, the weather in Guijiang was humid, and the night was extremely cold and humid.Even though he was walking outside in a down jacket, he still felt slightly chilly, let alone Shen Chengqian who only had pajamas on his body.

He ran all the way just now, but he really didn't care about it. Once he rested his feet now, the coolness that invaded the bone marrow gradually spread along the limbs and bones, making the frozen person desperate.The thin sweat on the body and let the cold wind blow, it is very cold.

If he waited in the forest, he would freeze to death, and it would be more satisfying to have Long Chenyu slash him with a knife.

Now, he has nowhere to go.

Now that Long Chenyu has become like this, in the imperial city, there is no one he can turn to.At this time, the curfew cannot leave the city, and it does not refer to the soldiers guarding outside the city.

I, like a man in an urn, was locked alive in this square city, waiting to fend for myself and turn into ashes.

Suddenly, Shen Chengqian thought again.

What Long Chenyu did just now seemed to be insane.But looking at his mind is not clear, it is better to say that he has lost his mind than that he has gone mad.

He suddenly remembered what Long Chenyu had said to him painfully, about killing Gu Cheng with his own hands.

Could it be that history is repeating itself, and the residual poison is still unclear?

He remembered that Long Chenyu once told him that he went crazy in the past because he was poisoned by the injury curse of a ghost warlock in the Yunhu National Army.

Now, I am in Guijiang.

Could it be that someone in Guijiang wanted to harm him?

Perhaps, the paper invitation to watch the lanterns is just a cover, just to invite you into the urn and catch them all?

If this is the case, it is a diplomatic issue between the two countries.

Shen Chengqian was meditating alone in the dense forest, when a cage of candlelight suddenly shone and hurt his eyes, he took a closer look and saw that it was a guard army, the leader of the soldier drew his sword out of its sheath, pointed at him and said: "Who is there?" Over there!"

Shen Chengqian didn't dare to respond, he just got up and continued to run away.

At the same time, summon slaves to the boudoir.

Xu Huanxi is wearing a jasper-colored floral skirt, which is swaying and fragrant with her national beauty.She smiled and looked at Zhao Nu in front of her, and said softly: "Princess, how is the plan going?"

Zhao Nu glanced at her, and said calmly: "Just now, a male slave has gone to the east building to check, but Shen Chengqian's body was not found."

"Yo, he's so clever that he escaped." Xu Huanxi sighed softly. "But it doesn't matter. Now that the four gates of the imperial city are locked and guarded by soldiers, he can't escape from the city. In the imperial city, he has no one to turn to and rely on. He is waiting to die. .”

"If I don't find his body, I will never feel at ease in my heart."

"Princess, don't worry, what's there to worry about now?" Xu Huanxi said. "Now that Long Chenyu has been hit by a Gu, from man to god, it's all yours. Shen Chengqian is in such a state of desperation again, the imperial city is only so big, and there are so many guards, why can't you catch him?"

"But..." Zhao Nu said awkwardly. "If Brother Huang finds out about this matter..."

Xu Huanxi was shocked when he heard this: "Why, you never told Wu Lingwang about this?"

"Heh." Zhao Nu snorted lightly. "My imperial brother is not a fool, even if he indulges me normally, he would not allow me to do such a thing. This time he fulfilled my wish and invited Long Chenyu and the others to Guijiang, in fact, he wanted to marry me. But I don't want me to secretly listen to your strategy, and now it has evolved into this."

Xu Huanxi lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "If His Majesty knows about this matter, you can say that this matter has nothing to do with you. It is because Long Chenyu and Shen Chengqian have always been at odds, so they are arguing against each other. It's all about fighting against yourself. Your Majesty is a man, and he doesn't know any Gu and profound arts, and he can't catch you."

Zhao Nu nodded and sighed: "If I knew it was such a trouble, I might as well have sent some killers to kill Shen Chengqian directly. Now he is fleeing somewhere, after all, he is a disaster, disturbing my peace."

Xu Huanxi smiled lightly, noncommittal.

This Guijiang princess seems to be swift and resolute, shrewd and decisive, but she is also stupid and infatuated.Otherwise, he would not be willing to be used by himself.

So what if the Dongchuang incident happened?She, Xu Huanxi, is just an outsider. If something happens that she can't handle, she can just leave.

Shen Chengqian continued to run in the dense forest, afraid of being caught by the soldiers behind him, completely unaware that he had escaped from the dense forest of dead branches and fled into a forest of red wax plums.

Just turning his head to see if the soldier was chasing him, he slammed into someone.

Shen Chengqian's slender body bumped into someone, but he fell heavily to the ground.He was terrified, and hurried to see who that person was.

but don't want to...

That night, King Wu Ling, who couldn't fall asleep because of alcoholism, happened to come to the red wax plum forest to watch the moonlight and blow the cold wind.

Unexpectedly, he encountered a catastrophe on the ridge of his life.

He looked at Shen Chengqian who fell down on the ground, terrified, and suddenly remembered a line of poem he had accidentally read a few days ago.

The delicate posture is delicate and weak, and the pear blossoms are raining again in early spring.

Tonight, Merlin Moonlight, who is the person who moved his heartstrings.
