East China Sea dust

Ao Zhan didn't stay for too long, he just sat in the room for less than half an hour, staring at Zhang Qinglan as he finished his meal, then stood up and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, the man stood in front of Zhang Qinglan and bent down, placing a lingering light kiss on the young man's brow.

Zhang Qinglan lowered his head and shrank back as if he wasn't used to it, but Ao Zhan pinched his shoulders and couldn't move.

The man stretched out his hand calmly, picked up a fresh blade of grass from the fabric on Zhang Qinglan's shoulder, looked at it for a moment, and said meaningfully: "Stay at home obediently, and wait for me to come back."

It was probably the weeds that accidentally rubbed against her body when she slipped through the window just now. Zhang Qinglan's eyes flickered, her thin lips were tightly pressed, and she nodded honestly.

"If you feel bored, you can go to the yard to take a look and relax." Ao Zhan held the young man's side face with one hand, and rubbed the skin at the end of the other's eyes with his thumb, promised.

"But you should know what happens if you run away, huh?"

The man's voice came from the top of his head, and when he spoke, his chest throbbed and vibrated, and when it reached Zhang Qinglan's ears, it was extremely low, and the warning was self-evident.

The Dragon King's fingertips were icy cold, scraping against his eyes one after another. Zhang Qinglan half-closed her eyes, turned her head, rubbed her face toward the man's palm, and said vaguely: "Understood."

There was a warm and soft touch in the palm of his hand, and Ao Zhan smiled, obviously satisfied with the other party's weakness.Taking advantage of the situation, he withdrew his right hand that was supporting the young man's side face, and said in a low voice, "Be obedient."

Without saying anything more, the man ordered his servants to come in and clean up, and left the room by himself.

Zhang Qinglan raised her eyes.Looking thoughtfully at the figure of the other party who disappeared behind the wooden door, tapped his fingertips on the table, making a light and continuous sound, pursed his thin lips lightly, and said nothing: "..."

A very obedient and well-behaved appearance.

It's a pity that it hasn't been a long time. After confirming that Ao Zhan has left the house, the young man who was originally sitting in his seat stood up abruptly, his pupils flashed with eager light.

In two or three steps before reaching the door, Zhang Qinglan raised her hand and tried to push the curtain.

This time, the door was easily opened, and it was not locked from the outside.

After crossing the threshold, Zhang Qinglan walked out of the room, and only then did he see the layout of the entire courtyard clearly.

I saw houses built on all sides of the inner courtyard, with blue tiles and white walls, carved beams and painted buildings.The ridge of the roof is curled up, and a row of town house beasts with different expressions are carved at the tip.

The entire courtyard is laid out in a square, and there is an enclosed corridor in front of each house, and stone piles are placed between the corridors.A few small and exquisite red lanterns hung under the eaves, and the breeze blew, and the lanterns swayed lightly.

In the courtyard is a flat open space covered with neat large blocks of green bricks. There is a sunken narrow ditch between the open space and the surrounding corridors, which is used for drainage in rainy days.

On the blue brick floor, there is a purple sand water tank with a height of one person, and the left and right sides of the water tank are carved with brass animal heads and hanging ears.The tank was empty and dry.

On the opposite side are two sandalwood doors that open in opposite directions. Now the doors are tightly closed and the latches are tightly fastened, so they cannot be opened.

Probably because Ao Zhan sent all the subordinates away when he left, Zhang Qinglan stood alone in the corridor, and there was silence in his ears.

Just after Zhang Qinglan took the layout of the courtyard into his eyes and explored it one by one.An inexplicable sense of familiarity hit my heart at this moment.

After turning around the courtyard two or three times, Zhang Qinglan stood in front of the gate of the courtyard, with his back to the gate, and turned around to look into the courtyard.

After looking at it again and again, he finally discovered the clue - he had indeed seen a courtyard with the exact same layout as this one.

The dilapidated mansion that I saw when I came to a corner of the town according to the breath of the crabapple fruit in the middle of the night when I was guided by the compass appeared in my mind.

Zhang Qinglan carefully compared the details and found that they were basically matching.

It's just that in the courtyard at that time, the open space in the courtyard had turned into a dry pool, and in the pool was a raised earth slope.The building in front of us today is exquisitely decorated and brand new.

Some subtle differences piled up together, so Zhang Qinglan didn't realize that these two places were actually the same place in the first place.

Yao Yitang's beautiful and delicate face flashed in front of his eyes, Zhang Qinglan took a step and came to the empty water tank.

After thinking for a moment, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in the young man's calm eyes.

He rummaged through several rooms one by one, and after finding the kitchen, he found a bucket of clean water in the corner.Lifting the bucket and taking it out from the kitchen, Zhang Qinglan came to the water tank again and poured clean water into the water tank.

After coming and going, after a while, the purple sand water tank, which was originally empty, was filled with a tank of water. The water was rippling, and was illuminated by the soft sunlight, reflecting the sparkling light of the stars.

Not long after, I saw a sudden wind blowing in the empty courtyard.

On the plain water tank, a rootless sprout grew out of thin air, and the soft light green swayed gently in mid-air.

The buds soon begin to shoot, grow, leaf, and bloom.

When it is fully grown, the long, dark and slender trunk is as tall as a person, and the bright green leaves are dotted with flowers.The pink and white petals kept falling downwards, making a slight fluttering sound.

Under the shadow of the tree, a woman's figure gradually appeared.

I saw a red gold plate glass necklace hanging on her smooth and white neck, wearing a purple skirt and narrow jacket, three or four gold bracelets hanging on her two slender forearms, her lips were bright red, and her eyes were as charming as Silk.

Beauty is beauty, but with such a dress, it is exactly the same as the boss Shen Chunlu Shen who came to make trouble at the dinner party.

"It really is you." Looking at the woman in front of her, Zhang Qinglan was not surprised and said coldly.

Yao Yitang raised the corners of his lips, and stood in the shadow under the tree, his whole body was insubstantial, he couldn't see clearly: "It's me."

The woman had a soft voice, looked up and down at the tall and handsome young man, raised her lips and said, "Ah...you are the little lady who followed Ao Zhan that day, right? Interesting."

Zhang Qinglan didn't care too much about whether the other party recognized her identity, and was too lazy to greet the monster, frowning, and asked straightforwardly: "What is this place?"

The woman's smile is still gentle: "It's just an illusion."

Hearing this, Zhang Qinglan subconsciously wanted to find out the talisman, but found that the Qiankun bag he had been carrying with him all along was gone, and even the blood jade Chongli that Ao Zhan had given him also disappeared.

As if he already knew what Zhang Qinglan wanted to do, Yao Yitang shook his head, urging him not to waste his efforts: "This is the phantom formation left by the ancient power, not to mention the spell, even if it is a real dragon, it cannot be broken through by force."

Zhang Qinglan's eyes darkened: "You know he's a dragon."

"Of course I know." Yao Yitang hid his face and smiled, with fine lines showing at the end of his eyes: "If it wasn't for this true dragon blood, I wouldn't want to spend so much effort."

"How are you doing?" Zhang Qinglan's eyes darkened.

Yao Yitang changed the fake smile on his face, and said coldly: "I am a Begonia flower demon, since I am a monster, if I want to cultivate to a higher level, I naturally have to hunt other monsters."

"This phantom formation is specially designed for hunting big monsters. If you can't break out of the formation within three months, Ao Zhan will be refined by me and used as flower mud."

"To be a monster, you must also know how to plan for yourself, don't you?"

Following Yao Yitang's words, the petals in the air gradually became more and more numerous, and they fell down one after another, but disappeared the moment they touched the ground.

It proves that the woman who is talking to him in front of him is just a phantom.

Zhang Qinglan thought about it, and remained silent: "..."

Yao Yitang gave Zhang Qinglan a strange look: "It's you, obviously just a mortal, who was dragged in together for some reason."

"Looking at the layout of this courtyard, it's obviously your mansion." Zhang Qinglan ignored Yao Yitang's internal and external provocations, and calmly analyzed.

"Heh," the woman snorted lightly, "You have some good eyesight."

Looking down at the bright red Kodan on his fingertips, Yao Yitang said: "That's right, this is indeed my former home."

The woman's blood-red lips curled up in an arc, "Not only that, the entire phantom formation is also based on my mind."

"There are many restrictions in the phantom array, you must act according to my will, and you must not violate it in the slightest."

Zhang Qinglan remained calm, twisted the corners of her clothes with her fingertips hanging by her side, and rubbed them casually: "What good does this do for you?"

Hearing the young man's question, Yao Yitang's eyes froze.Speechless for a moment, he said willfully, "I'm happy, that's the benefit."

"Ao Zhan's memory has been sealed by me, and spiritual power cannot be used in the phantom formation." The woman lowered her eyes slightly, without the meekness and softness she had in this world before: "What's more, you are just a worthless mortal."

"Give up, you won't be able to get out within three months."

Zhang Qinglan's hands hidden under her robe were clasped together, her brows were lightly frowned, and she asked, "You said that this phantom formation is all based on your will, I don't believe it, how can you prove that what you said is true?"

Hearing what the young man said, an imperceptible crack finally appeared on the woman's delicate face.The begonia petals immediately fell more, scattered from the branch.

The smug smile disappeared from his face, Yao Yitang's mouth curved down, and his expression became a little stagnant.

However, he quickly regained his strength, put on an expression that everything was under control, and cast down his eyes at the young man.Blowing lightly towards her fingertips: "...you can't say what you want to say, and you can't do what you want to do."

"You have already experienced it yourself, right? Why do you still ask me for evidence?"

Hearing Yao Yitang's words, Zhang Qinglan's eyes flashed a dark light.

Thinking about the abnormalities that appeared on himself and Ao Zhan in this short day, it must be related to Yao Yitang's "magic array" and "restriction".
