C66

Taking the new cup on the plate and pouring a cup of fragrant tea, Feng Xue Han said, "The Emperor has secretly handed this matter to me." He passed a cup of tea in front of Yun Weiyang, and then poured another cup in front of himself.

Sipping a sip of tea, Yun Weiyang raised her head to look at Feng Xue Han, a dim light flashed in her eyes, and she said solemnly: "I will go too!"

Hearing this, Feng Xue Han lightly raised his eyebrows. His clear and cold eyes had a hint of gentleness in them, and the light in his deep eyes dimmed, making him appear even more frightening.

Holding his lower jaw, Yun Weiyang thought deeply for a moment, and then said: "I'm sneaking in as a palace maid!" Finished speaking, as if she knew Feng Xue Han's thoughts, her slender hand rested on the back of his hand, and she said: "Don't worry, I will be careful, and not to mention you are at my side!"

As night fell, the entire sky was shrouded in darkness. The dark night was devoid of any light, and even the stars and moon were hidden in the thick clouds. The dark green treetops were motionless.

He was sitting on a bed arranged by Feng Xuehan. Yun Weiyang was packing her things as she looked around the room. The place where the maidservants lived was extremely simple and crude, with only a few beds and a single table.

Putting his clothes to the side, Yun Weiyang saw three palace maids walk in. At this time, one of the three palace maids said: "Hui Qian, you came back pretty early today!"

Rolling his eyes, Yun Weiyang tremblingly said: "These few days, the palace has been causing a lot of trouble. I'm afraid that if that ghost catches my eye, my little life will be ruined."

"Shh!"

Hua Yin, who was speaking with Yun Weiyang, hurriedly covered his mouth, then looked outside the door. After confirming that there was no one outside, he hurriedly closed the door, released the hand that was covering Hui Xi's mouth, and said angrily: "You're courting death.

"Why?" Yun Weiyang innocently blinked her eyes.

Another palace maid, Zhexiu, sighed and said, "Huixi, you usually turn your head slowly enough, why don't you have the slightest sense of crisis at this critical juncture?!"

Hua Yin looked at Yun Weiyang's confused expression and knew that she still did not understand. Feeling helpless, she could only say: "Hui Qian, right now the Imperial Palace is strictly investigating this matter of ghosts, and even more so, don't allow the people below to discuss it. If they hear someone discussing this matter, just randomly beat them to death." After saying that, she pushed Hui Qian. "Do you know!?"

After hearing what was said, Yun Weiyang hurriedly grabbed onto Hua Yin's hand, and said with a trembling voice: "Blossom Yin Sis, it's all thanks to your reminder. Otherwise, I would definitely have gotten into trouble again!"

Patting Yun Weiyang's hand, Hua Yin softly said: "Hui Qian, don't be afraid, as long as big sister remembers what you said, you'll be fine, you understand?"

Nodding his head, Yun Weiyang lowered her eyes as a dim light flashed across her eyes. She took out a few pieces of peach blossoms from her sleeve and softly said: "Sisters, this was given to me by Senior Servant Li today, I haven't been able to bear to eat it. I thought that since I've been busy all day, I definitely haven't eaten enough, so I brought it back." With that, she spread out the peach blossoms on her handkerchief and smiled. "Sisters, you're welcome!"

The three palace maids looked at each other, and Qu Jin said, "Hui Qian is still thinking about us, so we won't be polite." His appearance was as if he hadn't eaten for a few days, so he couldn't be blamed on them. One must know that they, as palace maids, had never eaten their fill before, so naturally, they couldn't control their mouths when they saw such delicious dishes.

A cold light flashed past Yun Weiyang's eyes, she picked up the teapot, poured water for them and said slowly: "Miss Flower Yin, there are only the few of us now, can you tell me that the palace maids were truly taken away by ghosts?"

Flower Yin drank a mouthful of water, then asked while eating, "Hui Qian, you're actually interested in these things, isn't your courage always the smallest?"

Yun Weiyang opened her eyes wide, and said fearfully: "My brain is so slow, if I do not ask clearly, what happens if they catch me one day?"

Zhexiu nodded his head and said, "That's true!" Finished speaking, she sat down beside Yun Weiyang, looked at the other two, and said: "Speaking of strange, if it was man-made, then just what kind of person had the ability to rush into the palace in the middle of the night, and without making the slightest sound, directly biting someone to death!"

"Bite to death?" Yun Weiyang grabbed the center of gravity of the words and asked.

Night Smoke continued, "Yes! We didn't know before, but a palace maid said later that she came out to the latrine at night and accidentally saw something with long hair and a face that couldn't be seen.

"And then?"

"Later on, the palace maid was so scared that her soul almost flew out of her body. She no longer cared about the toilet as she scrambled back to her dorm. From then on, the palace maid went crazy and kept repeating the events of that night in her mouth." Finishing her words, Zhexiu patted his chest, clearly also frightened out of his wits.

Yun Weiyang frowned, and asked: "Since she is crazy, why would she tell you all these things?"

With a heavy sigh, Hua Yin said, "That night when she came back, she wasn't crazy. It's just strange that not long after she said all that, she became delirious. In the end, she became a lunatic."

Nodding his head, Yun Weiyang said: "So that's how it is!"

As if he had thought of something, Yun Weiyang asked: "According to you guys, does that thing only move at night?"

"That's right!" Hua Yin said, "They all found the palace maid's skeleton early the next morning!"

Standing up, Yun Weiyang looked around at the not very sturdy window, and asked: "Since it has so much power, why didn't it just barge in?"

Ah!

A scream came from behind Yun Weiyang, and she suddenly turned her head, only to see the three of them huddled together in fear. Yun Weiyang looked around, and upon discovering that there was nothing suspicious, she frowned, and asked: "What's wrong?"

Ye Mo, who was a bit calmer, said in shock, "Hui Qian, don't scare us like that. If that thing breaks in, we're all dead for sure!"

Inwardly rolling his eyes, Yun Weiyang helplessly said: "I'm talking nonsense, okay?" She looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Let's rest early!"

The candle was extinguished, and Yun Weiyang was quietly lying on the bed with her eyes closed, as though she was sleeping, but her brain was working extremely quickly. From the information she just obtained, that thing would definitely strike again, and according to their description, it seemed as if that thing would need human flesh and blood to survive, but what was it exactly? Could it be a modern vampire? However, the vampire thing only existed in novels, she had never seen its true appearance before!

After thinking for a long time, she still could not think of a reason, but sleep gradually filled her heart. Just as Yun Weiyang was about to fall asleep, suddenly, she felt something blow towards her ear, and her heart skipped a beat. Yun Weiyang took out her dagger, and stabbed towards her side without hesitation.

Yun Weiyang suddenly sat up from the bed. Seeing the dagger under the bedding, Yun Weiyang frowned, looking at the surrounding broken windows and closed doors, she thought: Could it be that she felt wrongly?

Pulling the dagger out, Yun Weiyang suddenly grabbed onto the blanket, and stretched out her hand to feel it. She discovered that it was still wet, and was shocked, but Yun Weiyang felt that cold sweat had already soaked her back, and the dagger in her hand slowly tightened. Yun Weiyang frowned, what exactly was it that came and went without a trace.

Yun Weiyang admitted that her perception was very high, but the other party had suddenly appeared by her side without her noticing. If the other party really wanted her life, just thinking about it caused Yun Weiyang's scalp to go numb.

After lighting up the smoke in the room, Yun Weiyang leapt out of the room, and with a few twists and turns, she arrived at Feng Xuehan's residence in the palace.

Below the cat, Yun Weiyang looked around and then in a flash, she disappeared from the spot.

As soon as he entered the room, Yun Weiyang saw a man in white clothes standing silently in front of the window. He had a cold and noble air about him, like a pure white snow lotus in Mount Kunlun.

Standing at the doorway, Yun Weiyang breathed heavily. Her body swayed, and she tightly held onto the hand Feng Xue Han was carrying on his back. For some reason, Yun Weiyang felt that his back was very lonely, "Cold!"

Suddenly turning around, Feng Xue Han's cold eyes sized up Yun Weiyang, and then he said with a slightly relieved tone: "Are you alright?"

Nodding his head, Yun Weiyang said: "I'm fine!" After saying that, she threw the blanket on the table, pointed to the wet area, and asked, "What do you see?"

Her slender hand touched his forehead, causing Feng Xue Han to frown slightly. Then, she brought it to her nose and sniffed it.

Yun Weiyang, who had been keeping a close eye on Feng Xue Han, naturally saw the look of concentration on his face, and asked: "What did you discover?"

Feng Xue Han nodded and said: "This water is ordinary water!" With that, he looked at Yun Weiyang, and said solemnly: "But this water is very strange!"

"What's strange?" She had smelled it before, but she had not noticed anything different.

"It's seawater!" Feng Xue Han asked solemnly.

"Sea water?" Yun Weiyang asked in astonishment: "How could there be seawater here?" She wasn't doubting Feng Xue Han, she was just too surprised! One must know that this place was thousands of miles away from the sea, so how could something so far away appear here?

Nodding his head, Feng Xue Han's voice also became a bit serious, "That's right!" It's really strange! "

Thinking of the information he got from the palace maid today, Yun Weiyang said: "Han, that thing seems to rely on human blood essence to survive, and its targets are all young palace maids. So it must be something cold."
