Winter is approaching, and Winterfell has welcomed its first snow.
The underground city isolates everything from the outside world, this time it also isolates Fengqi and Huaizhun.
Looking at the ghost soldiers blocking his way, Feng Qi was a little confused.
"We are sent from the Fanji Valley. There is no reason for Wan Shitong not to see us, and there is no reason for you not to let us in."
But the tall ghost soldiers just stood there, looking down at Huaizhun coldly.
"This is an order from the Ghost King. No one is allowed to enter without permission."
Feng Qi frowned slightly, something happened in the underground city.
My Ghost King Token was taken away by Xuan Si, otherwise I might still have a chance to get in.
Just as the two sides were in a stalemate, Shen Chi emerged from behind the ghost soldiers.
Immediately, the ghost soldiers respectfully stepped aside.
Seeing Chenchi, Feng Qi looked up and down.
Shen Chi was covered in white clothes, with a green silk sash tied around his waist. His dark hair was tied on top of his head, and he looked at Feng Qi with a pair of dark eyes.
It seems that Shen Chi's injury should be almost healed.
Feng Qi asked: "What's going on?"
Shen Chi didn't hide much, he just lowered his voice.
"Before meeting the Ghost King, you have to do one thing for the Ghost King. Recently, the Ghost King has been really exhausted because of this matter, and almost the entire dungeon has been mobilized."
Shen Chi didn't look like he was joking, it was rare to see such affection on his face.
Huaizhun held the sword in his arms and said calmly: "We are not here specifically to do business for the underground city, and Fengqi is not from the underground city. You can't do anything you want."
But Shen Chi ignored Huaizhun, as if he didn't hear anything.
Those beautiful eyes just looked at Feng Qi so calmly, "The know-it-all is gone."
Feng Qi was obviously shocked, "What do you mean missing?"
Hasn’t Gadget always lived in the underground city?
According to Know-It-All's nature, he wouldn't be able to leave the dungeon unless something serious happened.
Even if you left the dungeon last time for the purpose of Killing Heart Guanyin, weren't there people following you?
When Feng Qi was shocked, Huai Zhun was also stunned.
Ever since there was a know-it-all in the underground city, that person has never left.
Not only because he is the ghost king's confidant and fraternity, but also because he is the most important strategist in the dungeon. How could he disappear?
The shock caused by this incident quickly overwhelmed the anger that Shen Chi had just ignored.
But Feng Qi was still calm, "What's going on?"
Shen Chi sighed helplessly, unable to describe his emotions.
He just shook his head, "I'm afraid only the Ghost King knows the reason."
Huaizhun didn't care who disappeared from the dungeon, or what happened to anyone.
He just wants to live a good life with Fengqi, just like before.
He thinks that he is not a great man. He just wants to live in this dirty world with Feng Qi. He doesn't think that he is wrong, and he is right in the first place.
"Why, does the Ghost King want us to help find Know-It-All?"
Shen Chi said nothing, as if by default.
"Oh, there are so many people in the dungeon and they can't find it, so what can the two of us do?"
As soon as Huaizhun finished speaking, Fengqi agreed.
"Okay, I'll help you."
Huaizhun looked at Feng Qi and was slightly startled, "Feng Qi!"
Feng Qi turned around and mounted the horse, and glanced at Huaizhun, his eyes distant and indifferent.
"Jack of all trades saved my life."
Yes, Wan Shitong once saved Feng Qi's life, and Feng Qi had no reason to sit idly by.
Chen Chi glanced at the ghost soldier behind him. The ghost soldier turned around and pulled out a horse. Shen Chi quickly got on the horse.
He looked down at Huaizhun and said, "If you are willing, just wait for our return in the underground city."
Huaizhun's face looked a little ugly, as if he saw ridicule on Shen Chi's face.
He clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction and got on the horse.
He looked at Feng Qi and said earnestly, "I'm not doing it for the dungeon, or for being a jack-of-all-trades, but because of you."
Shen Chi rode his horse between the two of them and looked at Feng Qi, "I just received the news before you guys came. It may be in the Cardamom Forest."
Feng Qi just nodded, and then left first, followed closely by Huaizhun and Shen Chi.
The cardamom forest is neither too big nor too small.
Snowflakes were falling at this time, but the cardamom forest was evergreen. From a distance, it looked like inlaid green gems.
The tall and tall pine trees are closely together, and the melted snowflakes have condensed into rows of water beads hanging on the needle leaves, crystal clear.
The cardamom forest in the main film is very quiet and deep, and it looks like a beast that will open its mouth to swallow everything at any time.
It just lay there, waiting for the next prey to arrive.
When they arrived outside the cardamom forest and looked at the tall trees in front of them, Shen Chi called out to Feng Qi.
He looked at the cardamom forest in front of him, a strange look flashed in his eyes, and he was surprisingly calm.
"The Ghost King first sent people to search the cardamom forest, but found nothing. The Ghost King firmly believes that Wan Shitong can easily avoid the ghost soldiers."
Hearing this, Huai Zhun snorted lightly.
"Why, your ghost soldiers who praise you endlessly can't find a single sick person?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Chi unceremoniously threw away his folding fan and pointed it at Huai Zhun.
"If you say one more word, I will chop off your head right now."
His eyes were like a pool of stagnant water, with no trace of shock or anger.
However, Huai Zhun saw the surging murderous intent under the stagnant water, just like the folding fan with a sharp blade that could cut his neck at any time.
He seemed to be able to clearly feel the sound of the folding fan unfolding and cutting through the air just now, and he felt a lingering fear in his heart.
Huaizhun looked at the blade, feeling a little dazed.
He thought of Rong Siyan and what Rong Siyan said about Xuan Si.
He is a person who can still force himself to look directly at the blade at a critical moment of life and death. Only with such composure can he get a chance to fight back.
But he did blink just now, and he couldn't help but want to retreat.
Feng Qi frowned slightly, "It's hard for the three of us to find all the cardamom forests."
Shen Chi looked at Feng Qi and took back his folding fan.
"We can look for him separately. Know-it-all won't want to meet the people in the dungeon, but he might be willing to meet you."
Feng Qi didn't look at Shenchi, but looked at the cardamom forest in front of him, feeling something strange in his heart.
Sometimes, life is just a more painful death.
He would say so.
If Wan Shitong really saw himself, he might say something like this, right?
Almost without hesitation, Feng Qi immediately dismounted and walked into the cardamom forest.
Huaizhun glared at Shenchi and then got in. Shenchi walked slowly at the back.
The cardamom forest is rarely quiet, and you can only vaguely hear the sound of birds flapping their wings, and maybe a few long calls.
But through the towering trees, everything sounded a little unreal.
Feng Qi gathered his cloak and continued walking towards the depths of the cardamom forest.
She had brought Yunzhuo here before, and she knew exactly where the best place to hide was.
But she wasn't sure. She wasn't sure how long Wan Shitong could drag his body out of such a cold place.
It's like a helpless person wandering into an endless swamp, alone.
Feng Qi collected his thoughts and continued walking deeper.
The sky gradually darkened, and the scattered snowflakes stopped without knowing when, leaving only the sound of dripping water.
Not far away, Feng Qi saw a faint fire coming from not far away, which was dark and unclear.
Feng Qi seemed to have sensed something, and then walked towards the place where the light came from.
It was an open place, and a ball of fire rose in the middle, stretching the figure of the sitting man very long.
A man in a white robe sat with his back to him. The night wind blew by, and the white fluff on his cloak was swaying gently.
Feng Qi's tense nerves finally relaxed for a moment.
She approached slowly and sat down next to the man.
It was a thick log, its surface had been baked very dry, and it was covered with warmth.
Wan Shitong still looks the same as before, but his face is paler.
Feng Qi did not go to see Wan Shitong, but simply said: "Why did you suddenly leave the underground city?"
The look of a fire was reflected in Wan Shitong's eyes, which was constantly beating and shining.
There was a smile on her lips, still as gentle as ever.
"Aren't you curious why I have to wait for you here?"
Shen Chi indeed said that Wan Shitong might not want to meet other people, but he might meet Feng Qi.
Feng Qi looked at Wan Shitong, "Why, why are you here?"
Wan Shitong covered his face and coughed a few times, "I didn't expect you to come, but since you are here, I naturally want to meet you."
He took out a wine bottle from his arms and handed it to Feng Qi.
"Have you seen Lord Ghost King?"
Feng Qi shook his head and took the wine bottle in his hand, "Your Ghost King doesn't seem to want to see me."
"No, he wanted to."
The two looked at each other, as if there was a wall between them, and all he could do was look at each other.
After a long time, Wan Shitong finally said, "When a person is about to die, it is good to have someone by his side."
Feng Qi frowned, but before she could say anything, Wan Shitong interrupted her.
"I know that you will bring me back to the dungeon safely, just like last time, or the last time. I have no doubts about your ability. But I don't want to go back. I'm tired of the dungeon.
It’s useless.”
"The Ghost King regards you as his confidant, not just because..."
"I know."
Feng Qi thought he could comfort Wan Shitong and send him back.
But after I really saw it, I realized that I couldn't seem to do anything.
She knew that Wan Shitong seemed to have his own plans, but she could only watch him go to his own end.
Such people are really cruel, abandoning everything and heading towards the ending that they have long expected.
"Fengqi, have you ever wondered who I am?"
"I was curious."
Maybe, as Know-It-All said, it would be a good thing to have someone with you when you die.
"Any guesses?"
Feng Qi looked at Wan Shitong and nodded.
"I heard that a prince died in the conspiracy to fight for the throne. Everyone said he was dead, but insiders said that His Royal Highness was missing. Is that right? Your Highness..."
Wan Shitong smiled palely and said, "Well, after I was rescued by you, I was taken away by the Ghost King, and I stayed in the underground city after that."
Fengqi seems to be able to guess what happens next. According to Wan Shitong's temperament, he probably doesn't want to go back.
"Now that the emperor knows that I am still alive, he will never let me live. Naturally, I will not stay in the underground city until the end of the second year."
"The Ghost King is kind to me. I will not harm him again. He still has his own things to do."
Feng Qi nodded, "Really, don't you plan to go back?"
Know-it-all did not answer, but there was no need to answer.
Feng Qi stood up, and Wan Shitong's eyes followed her body upwards.
"Are you leaving? That's fine, they should be arriving soon..."
Feng Qi took a step forward, still looking down at Wan Shitong, just like the last time.
It seems that he wants to protect Wanshitong, bless him, and do his best.
"Are you really not planning to see the Ghost King in person?"
"That guy, it's better not to use it."
When he said this, something else flashed in his eyes, and he still smiled, as if he was thinking of something else.
Feng Qi sighed and stretched out his hand.
"I'll take you back." This chapter has been completed!
