At that time, the demon hadn't grown up yet.

Qiao Zhen tore his coat into long strips and tied them between the branches, and then spread the quilt on it to make a simple bed. He leaned on it and looked up at the stars in the sky.

As the sky darkened little by little, the number of stars in the sky gradually increased, which was also a beautiful sight.

He looked at the door below again, the door was still open, and there was no movement in the room. Qiao Zhen fixed her body with a rope so that she would not fall, and then closed her eyes in peace. .

At night, when he was in a drowsy sleep, Qiao Zhen felt someone staring at him, and his brain jerked and he suddenly opened his eyes.

Thus, the two pairs of eyes looked together.

Yan Jinlan's face was still wearing the golden mask, which was stained with a strange luster in the dark night. Qiao Zhen was so frightened that he almost fell from the tree. Fortunately, he was tied with a rope, so he didn't fall down.

Seeing that he woke up, Yan Jinlan leaned back and opened the distance between them.

"This way you can fall asleep. It seems that this punishment doesn't make you take it seriously."

Qiao Zhen: "..."

Yan Jinlan is "treating" him too well, right?He didn't sleep at such a late night, so he ran to the tree to see if he was sleeping well. Could it be that he was too energetic and had nowhere to vent?

"If the lord thinks this punishment is too light, you can try it."

Yan Jinlan asked back: "Do you want me to sleep on a tree trunk like you?"

His tone was inexplicably low, making it difficult to hear his emotions.

Qiao Zhen shook his head quickly. He definitely didn't mean that. According to Yan Jinlan's words, he owns this huge magic palace alone. He didn't want to sleep where he wanted, and it was his turn to talk about it.

Unexpectedly, Yan Jinlan changed the subject and said, "Look at you sleeping so comfortably, so what if I just try it out for one night."

After finishing speaking, she really sat down opposite Qiao Zhen, followed his example, tied her clothes between the branches, and then closed her eyes leisurely.

Qiao Zhen originally wanted to remind him that there was someone waiting for him in the room, but seeing him like this, she was immediately speechless.

Did Yan Jinlan find him?

While Qiao Zhen was staring at Yan Jinlan, thinking wildly, Yan Jinlan, who had her eyes closed, suddenly spoke, her voice tinged with ethereal.

"You really look like him."

This "he" should refer to himself, because Yan Yi also said so before.

"If you were really him, I would definitely kill you with my own hands, but fortunately you are not, so you can still live well now."

Qiao Zhen felt a "thud" in her heart, and her whole body became tense.

Yan Jinlan repeated "I will definitely kill him with my own hands" twice more, and then completely lost his voice.

He must have fallen asleep!

Qiao Zhen also closed her eyes. If there was any hope in his heart before, then after hearing Yan Jinlan's words now, that hope in his heart was completely shattered.

Yan Jinlan has always said one thing, he said he would kill him, and he will.

The next day just after dawn, Qiao Zhen opened his eyes. The person sleeping opposite him had long since disappeared, leaving a coat still hanging on the tree. He looked at the room again, and the door was still open. It seems that the people inside have not woken up yet.

He got down from the tree and went into the house.

As soon as he entered the room, he was stunned. The man from last night was still on the bed at this moment, but he was awake.

Seeing him coming in, the man blinked at him quickly, as if hinting at him.

Qiao Zhen looked at his hands and feet bound by the sheets, and his mouth gagged by clothes, and suddenly felt that he was not the worst.

He hurried over and untied the man's hands and feet.

"Your lord did this?"

That person was saved, not only was he not grateful, but he also gave him a hard look, "I blame you, if you didn't make His Majesty unhappy, His Majesty wouldn't treat me like this."

Qiao Zhen's eyes widened suddenly, and the so-called beating was probably like this.

"Don't deny it, it's because of you that the Lord is not happy."

Qiao Zhen: "..."

This man is so righteous, what else can he say?

At the beginning, if he hadn't appeared suddenly, this person might have died.

"You are occupying my bed now, can I trouble you to get out?"

After leaning against the tree trunk all night, he now felt that all his bones were stiff, and now he needed to lie down.

The man snorted coldly, got off the bed and strode outside.

Qiao Zhen didn't lie on the bed for a long time when Yan Yi came over. Yan Yi stood by the bed and looked at him expressionlessly: "My lord probably knows that your lifeline is still there, so you should be careful in the future." .”

Qiao Zhen propped herself up and sat up, and looked at Yan Yi in surprise. This person came here specially to inform him, right?

Seeing that Yan was about to leave as soon as she finished speaking, Qiao Zhen hurriedly said, "Please stay!"

Yan Yi suddenly stopped in his tracks: "What else is there?"

"Since your lord knows that I have not been punished, didn't you say something else, such as asking you to make up for it?"

Yan Yimu kept silent.

The next second, a thought suddenly appeared in Qiao Zhen's mind. He immediately turned over and got out of bed, stood in front of Yan Yi, and looked at Yan Yi from top to bottom.

"Your lord will not punish you, will you?"

Yan Yi: "..."

"Is it really guessed by me? Are you really hurt?"

He stretched out his hand and was about to lift Yan Yi's clothes, but Yan Yi quickly dodged it.

As soon as Yan Yi hid like this, Qiao Zhen knew he had guessed right.

"Sorry to bother you."

Yan Yi took a step back, and said in a cold tone: "It's none of your business, I let the water go."

"You are also for Yan Jinlan."

In terms of loyalty, no one could compare to Yan Yi. Although he didn't like Yan Yi very much before, if Yan Jinlan lost Yan Yi's right-hand man, the road ahead would be difficult.

"I worship the lord. He has means and ambitions at a young age. At that time, I swore that I would assist the lord for the rest of his life. Therefore, it is right to think about him."

Qiao Zhen was about to boast a few words, when he heard him say again: "If someone dares to hurt the Lord, I will definitely not forgive him."

After throwing down these words, without waiting for Qiao Zhen's response, she turned around and left.

Qiao Zhen looked at Yan Yi's slightly cold back, and touched his nose in embarrassment. He thought that Yan Yi came here specially to remind him, but he might be wrong, Yan Yi just came to warn him .
