Jiang Ling hadn't been this anxious for a long time.

I don't know if it was because of Mrs. Wang's words, or because of what Lin Daiyu said in the Buddhist temple during the day, or the words that shocked her in the Queen Mother's dream that day, or all three.Now her heart is like a lot of big stones, and they are still building up one after another. She doesn't know when they will fall down and collapse completely.

——What should be done.

Wrapped in a quilt, Jiang Ling tossed and turned on the bed, unable to sleep.The huge sense of anxiety and the fear that came from nowhere swallowed her emotions inch by inch. She closed her eyes and forced herself to fall asleep, but there were still needles pricking her nerves. In addition to the faint fear, there is also a strong anger.

Angry because of Mrs. Wang's words.

But where did that anxiety and faint fear come from?

Jiang Ling buried her head in the pillow, closed her eyes, and her shoulders trembled slightly.

There were slight footsteps in the room, and then someone sat down beside her, gently stroked her shoulder, and said softly, "Why is it so early today... What's wrong with you?" While speaking, the man gently helped her up shoulder, and his thumb gently wiped the end of her eyes.

wet.

Jiang Ling shook his head and closed his eyes, that great sense of restlessness and uneasiness was still everywhere.

But just because her eyes were closed, her sense of hearing and touch became extremely clear.Someone beside her lay down gently, and patted her on the shoulder repeatedly, with a strong sense of comfort.It took a long time before she realized that she was struggling to get up, but was held down by Kangxi.

"Give……"

"Exemption."

Kangxi's voice was still calm, but it seemed to be pampering her petty temper.

"I know about today's incident. Originally, in March and April this year, I wanted to take them with a knife, but because I was going to Rehe at that time, I postponed it for half a year. Now it happens that something happened in Jiangnan, so Simply let them stay a little longer, and it won't be too late to clean up after the Jinling matter is over."

Jiang Ling didn't quite understand what the Jinling incident was referring to, but he instinctively felt that it was not a good thing.

And according to what Kangxi said, she seemed to have inadvertently postponed the plot of Dream of the Red Chamber for half a year.

"I shouldn't have talked to you about the things in the court. Naturally, you don't need to worry about those people's affairs. These days, you can stay in the house to rest. When things are over, naturally no one will trouble you again .As for..." Kangxi stopped talking suddenly, sighed heavily, and said, "You will be the safest if you stay here."

Jiang Ling suddenly understood many things.

For example, that day the Empress Dowager suddenly asked herself if there was any official donation in the Rongguo Mansion.For example, why did Kangxi let himself stay in the Palace of the Empress Dowager?For example, after returning to the palace, no one has ever come to trouble me...

Not only is the plot of the Red Mansion postponed for half a year, but even the original sequence has been changed.

She clenched the corner of the quilt tightly, and asked shyly, "Did the emperor think of doing something early in the morning?"

Kangxi hummed, and suddenly smiled again: "Don't be afraid, this matter has been settled more than ten years ago, one is the previous dukes, the other is the imperial merchants who are doing things outside, and the third is Yes... they have to be cleaned up. In the early years, I couldn't do anything, so I had to leave it there for the time being, and wait until today to deal with it. Speaking of which, the Empress Dowager taught me this trick."

When he said this, he suddenly felt a little nostalgic.

Jiang Ling closed his eyes, the strong sense of anxiety in his heart still persisted, but became more and more intense.

But the person behind him was still whispering something, and the consolation became more and more intense, and then related to the words that the queen mother said that day, the tense string in Jiang Ling's mind suddenly broke.For a moment, huge emotions surged in like a tide, sweeping over herself, and she was completely ignorant, except for the still steady voice of the person behind her:

"You will be safe and sound."

--how so.

- She never thought of...

Jiang Ling closed his eyes, his face turned pale.But Kangxi thought she was asleep, so he showed a gentle smile, patted her shoulder reassuringly, got up and left quietly.Liang Jiugong was holding an umbrella outside, preparing to send Kangxi back to Qianqing Palace, when he suddenly heard Kangxi say: "Let Zhang Ying come over half an hour early tomorrow, I have something to say to him."

Liang Jiugong responded, and went away with Kangxi again.

After Kangxi and Liang Jiugong were far away, the maids entered the room and blew out the candles.Young master Yunling not only likes silence, but also likes darkness. When she sleeps at night, she doesn't like lighting lamps and keeping vigil in the house.So after the lights went out, there was slowly no sound.

Jiang Ling opened his eyes, sat up, and was a little absent-minded.

It was absolutely unexpected that such a result would happen.

The plot of Dream of Red Mansions is postponed, but Kangxi, in his heart...

Jiang Ling buried his head in the quilt again, closed his eyes, and the feeling of anxiety in his heart expanded, like a torrent swept over.Unknowingly, she touched the rhombic mirror under the pillow. The touch was hard and icy cold, which made her mind clear for a moment.

But what followed was a more intense sense of at a loss than before.

She closed her eyes, and waited until the gauze gradually passed the Choushi time mark, and the maids and guards outside had changed shifts, so she grabbed the rhombic mirror, pointed it at herself, and disappeared into the world of the Red Chamber in an instant.

It is still a bleak end-time, filled with smoke and dust, and the sun is dimly red.

Jiang Ling walked in the devastated ruins, looking a little dazed.The strong sense of anxiety and at a loss still remained in her mind, as well as Kangxi's words just now, enveloping her like a huge curtain.She had never experienced such a thing, and she didn't know how to deal with it, let alone how to get out of this anxiety and loss.

If it was said that before going to Rehe, she felt a little uncomfortable, but now she is truly panicked.

The cold wind was carrying fine dust, blowing on her cheeks, a little cold, but more vigilant.She pinched her palm and forced herself to calm down—the reason why she came to the end of the world is precisely because she needs a strong sense of vigilance in the end of the world, which can make her calm down—then picked up a sharp-edged stone from the side , quickly moving through the ruins.

The vigilance developed in the last days, as well as the fast-moving movements, have already been embedded in her bones and blood.

puff--

The sharp stone pierced the back of the rotting creature's head, and the familiar smell of stench and blood filled the air, making her almost sick.But the movements in his hands still didn't stop. Among the rotting creatures, the mutated and lost dogs' sharp fangs, the orangutans and lions with bloody mouths, they tried hard to find a possible chance of survival.

She used to do the same, but her movements were not as quick.

And at that time, her physical strength was not so good.

Jiang Ling turned sideways to avoid the orangutan's claw, grabbed a steel rod next to him again, and smashed it hard on the orangutan's head.The rotten smell, the snow-white rotten eyes, the stinky pus, mixed with the dark dust of the last days, spread in the sunlight.

Within a range of 200 meters around, there are exactly the same scenes.

Jiang Ling smiled, but the smile was a bit bitter.

She looked up at the roof of the building and found a clump of plants that she had never seen before.In the past two or three years, Jiang Ling has searched for plant hormones in the last days, if not [-], there are [-], but most of them have little effect.Now seeing a new plant, it naturally attracted her attention.

Jiang Ling jumped out of the circle surrounded by mice and monkeys, and ran towards the roof of the building.

There are still many rotting creatures left in the building, smelling the smell of fresh flesh, they all rushed up one by one with claws and teeth.She loosened her wrist, quickly dodged them one by one, jumped onto the stairs in the pile of rotting flesh, and then started to run fast.

The cold wind was blowing on the face, bringing a bit of stinging coldness, but the noon sun was not dazzling.

Jiang Ling quickly came to the roof, as if he had practiced it countless times subconsciously, he took out the fire folder from his arms, and lit the clump of plants on the roof.Rotting creatures roared lowly, mice and ants spread densely around the feet, and the sound of corroding steel bars and cement could be heard, and the bottom of the feet was crumbling.

It was clear that the building was about to collapse.

She glanced at the dim sky, the sun was hanging pitifully on it, leaving only a faint red afterimage.

The fire quickly spread on the roof of half of the building, and then slowly extinguished.The shaking speed of the building is increasing, and even a slight clicking sound can be heard.Jiang Ling took out the gloves and porcelain bottle from his bosom, carefully collected some crystals, stepped on the rest of the fire, and pointed the front of the Linghua mirror at himself again.

At her feet, the crumbling building collapsed.

--came back.

Jiang Ling clutched the porcelain bottle in his hand, leaned slumped on the bed, his whole body was clean, and had been purified by white light.The room is dark, and a faint scent of grass and trees spreads from the porcelain vase, filling the whole room, refreshing and refreshing.

It was still dark night outside, and at some point, it began to rain heavily in autumn.

Jiang Ling closed her eyes, leaned against the bedpost, picked up a little cold and refreshing liquid, and smeared it on the back of her hand.Following the subtle pulse, the energy gradually spread to all parts of her body.All of a sudden, she felt herself floating up, her body was as light as a cloud, it was almost like... almost like swimming in the ocean, being gently supported by the sea water.

Jiang Ling opened his eyes, and the beams of the roof were within reach.

Beam? !

As soon as he relaxed slightly, he could no longer maintain the previous state, and fell heavily into the quilt.

Jiang Ling stared at the porcelain vase in astonishment, not recovering for a long time.After a long time, he picked up a little liquid again and applied it on the back of his hand.The feeling of lightness like clouds returned to her body, and she floated up slowly, as if walking in space. She climbed onto the beams of the roof awkwardly, and sat there in a daze.

Does this new ability make her ignore the influence of the earth's gravity?

Jiang Ling smiled wryly for a moment, then "swimmed" lightly from the roof beam back to the bed.She was not very familiar with this new ability that she had just mastered, and after a lot of effort, she slowly drifted back to the bed.After going through all this, Jiang Ling finally figured out that this ability can indeed ignore the influence of gravity and float up and down freely. At least if he falls from the cliff in the future, he won't turn himself into a puddle of flesh.

She wiped the sweat from her brow, tried the effect of this new ability again, and was vaguely relieved.

Probably due to the improved mood, the original sense of anxiety and at a loss has gradually faded away.

It was almost daylight.

Jiang Ling walked out of the house, looked at the twilight sky, and smiled unconsciously.

——Whether the current situation is good or bad, it will not be worse than the last days.
