Dream Legend

Chapter 63: The Phantom of the Forbidden City

There were four people in Fan Cheng's office, including Wu Shandi, Du Xiaoyong, and Pei Lili, who was temporarily transferred from the mysterious research institute. Fan Cheng said to everyone mysteriously, as if he was doing some underground work: "Recently, there is a rumor on the Internet that ancient eunuchs and palace maids will float out of the portraits in the Forbidden City after dark. The purpose of calling you here today is to find out the truth of this matter. Moreover, this matter must be kept absolutely confidential, otherwise it may cause social panic. If it spreads out, we will be punished."

When Wu Shan heard this, he immediately laughed: "Boss Fan, can you not be so serious? We are not going to catch ghosts. Besides, the Forbidden City is our treasure in Beijing. If there is really a supernatural thing, it is someone else's deliberate hype."

Du Xiaoyong also agreed: "Yes, I think this matter is very interesting. We can investigate it as a suspenseful case."

Pei Lili nodded seriously: "I also think this is interesting. After all, the Forbidden City is a place with a long history and there are many secrets hidden in it. We can use our professional knowledge and skills to uncover this mystery."

Fan Cheng also smiled and said, "Well, since you are all so enthusiastic, let's go and find out the truth together. But during the investigation, you must pay attention to safety and don't put yourself in danger."

Wu Shandi couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Fan Cheng, do you want us to go to the Forbidden City and be night walkers? This is not our area of ​​expertise."

Du Xiaoyong also laughed: "Yeah, we are not Superman, how can we catch the eunuchs and palace maids from the portraits?"

Pei Lili smiled mysteriously: "Don't worry, we are not going to catch them, but to investigate the truth. If this really happened, there must be a reason. We have to find out the truth before we can solve the problem."

Fan Cheng nodded: "That's right, you three are very smart. I have prepared investigation tools for you, you must investigate carefully and find out the truth. Remember, this matter can only be known by you three, and it must not be leaked."

The three looked at each other and laughed: "Okay, Fan Cheng. We will keep it a secret." These four seemingly unrelated people came together because of a mysterious rumor. They will use their wisdom and courage to uncover the secrets hidden behind the Forbidden City and bring everyone a different adventure journey.

On a gloomy night, a mysterious atmosphere enveloped the sky, and the moon hid behind the heavy clouds, foreshadowing some unknown and wonderful adventures that were about to unfold. In this deep and mysterious world, Wu Shandi, Du Xiaoyong and Pei Lili embarked on a journey to find the secrets hidden behind the Forbidden City. Wu Shandi relied on the power of the dragon and phoenix collar on his body, and had a domineering aura. All evil was not worth mentioning in front of him!

Wu Shandi solemnly reminded them that they needed to stay alert and pay attention to their surroundings after entering the gate of the Forbidden City. His words, like a breeze, quietly penetrated into the hearts of each of them, laying a layer of safety protection for this unknown adventure.

Du Xiaoyong and Pei Lili scoffed at the mysterious rumor. They thought it was just an absurd legend. How could the eunuchs and palace maids float out of the painting? So they shook their heads and laughed and said, "This is even more outrageous than Journey to the West. Could the eunuchs and palace maids travel through time and space?" Their laughter echoed in the silent Forbidden City like crickets at night.

"Hahaha, this is such a joke!" Du Xiaoyong patted Pei Lili on the shoulder and laughed so hard that he fell backwards. "How could they have floated out of the painting? This is our country's Forbidden City!"

Pei Lili also agreed: "Yes, we can't be fooled by such absurd legends."

The two of them looked at each other and laughed. In the ancient and mysterious Forbidden City, their laughter was like crickets at night, echoing in the silence, as if telling people: This is just a joke, don't take it too seriously!

Seeing this, Wu Shandi smiled and said to them, "You two, I understand your attitude towards rumors, but you still have to remain respectful. The Forbidden City has a long history, and there are some things that we should not jump to conclusions about."

Du Xiaoyong and Pei Lili looked at each other and laughed: "Mr. Wu, we are modern people. We won't be scared so easily."

They continued to search the Forbidden City, looking for the mysterious legend. They walked between the ancient palaces, stepping on the traces of history, and their hearts were filled with the passion of exploration.

They walked through the corridors and courtyards, chasing the legend. They looked up at the high eaves, as if they could see the dust of history drifting in the wind. Their eyes were firm and their steps were steady, as if they were challenging the legend.

As night fell, the Forbidden City became even quieter. The moonlight shone on them, covering them with a mysterious glow. They continued to move forward, as if they could feel the pulse of history beating. Their hearts were filled with anticipation and excitement, because they knew that they were about to unveil the mystery of this legend.

Their figures cast long shadows in the moonlight, just like ancient warriors who bravely moved forward to explore the unknown. Their hearts are filled with awe of history and persistence in legends. They believe that only through their own efforts can they uncover the truth of history.

On this quiet night, the Forbidden City seemed to come alive, with every corner full of historical traces and mysterious charm. Although Du Xiaoyong and Pei Lili scoffed at the legend, their determination and courage made them feel awe for history. They traveled through the long river of history, trying to find those marks of the once glorious past.

They walked to a gallery showing ancient court life. The eunuchs and palace maids in the paintings were so lifelike that they seemed to be walking out of the paintings. Du Xiaoyong and Pei Lili couldn't help but widen their eyes. They began to observe the painting carefully, trying to find some clues to prove the authenticity of the rumor.

They found that although the figures in this painting were lifelike, they did not show any signs of fluttering. They carefully observed several other paintings and also did not find anything unusual. Du Xiaoyong and Pei Lili began to feel a little disappointed. They felt that this rumor was just an absurd legend. Something that could not happen happened.

As they stood in front of the portraits, something strange happened. They suddenly felt a breeze on their faces, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance floating by. At this moment, a portrait began to shake slightly. They stared nervously, and saw a group of ancient eunuchs and palace maids slowly floating out of the painting.

They were dressed in gorgeous court costumes, wearing tall hats, holding fans, and walking lightly. Their faces were lifelike, as if they had really returned to that distant ancient time. The images of these eunuchs and palace maids in the picture were so vivid that Wu Shandi, Du Xiaoyong and Pei Lili, who were standing in front of them, were frightened and panicked. They couldn't believe what they saw was real.

However, these eunuchs and palace maids did not show any aggression, on the contrary, they had friendly smiles on their faces. They seemed not to care about the arrival of this group of modern people, but just walked around silently, as if enjoying the night in this ancient palace.

Wu Shandi held the energy of the dragon and phoenix collar in his hand, his heartbeat accelerated, ready to release powerful energy to fight back at any time. Pei Lili was ready to perform the art of escaping underground to prevent any accidents. However, seeing the friendly faces of these eunuchs and palace maids, although Du Xiaoyong was a little scared, he felt full of confidence and courage under the blessing of his companions - Wu Shandi and Pei Lili.

Du Xiaoyong took out his mobile phone, held it tightly in his hand, and took pictures of everything, recording the magic and beauty of this moment.

In the camera, the eunuchs are dressed in gorgeous clothes and smiling, as if they have walked out of an ancient scroll. The palace maids are as light as the wind, and their smiles are like spring flowers, blooming with endless vitality and energy. All of this is like a vivid picture scroll, making people sigh at the magic and beauty of nature.

They continued to observe the eunuchs and palace maids, and saw them moving in an orderly manner, sometimes talking in low voices, and sometimes responding to the surrounding situations with a smile. They seemed to be attracted by this ancient palace and the stories in the portraits, and they were full of respect and nostalgia for this palace.

Gradually, they came to the end of the gallery, and the eunuchs and palace maids gradually disappeared into the darkness. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief, their hearts filled with surprise and curiosity. The story of this painting seemed to become even more mysterious and fascinating.
