After traveling through time, the four best friends were all targeted by the boss

I was too tired these two days, and it started to drizzle when I went back. Meng Yin was already drowsy, so she barely finished her bath and fell asleep on the bed.

She didn't blow out the lights. Gu Ling went to deal with something and said he would come to sleep with her later.

If it were any other day, Meng Yin would have already fallen asleep, but tonight, as soon as she fell asleep, a feeling of fear would sweep over her body, making it impossible for her to breathe, and she could only struggle in a half-awake state.

In the dream, everything was pitch black, she kept falling, and even felt weightless.

"Ah!" She screamed, sat up suddenly, and looked around in panic.

The room was quiet, the warm colors looked particularly comfortable, and there was the sound of rain outside the window. Logically, she should have slept very soundly.

So, Meng Yin felt that she was the one who stabbed someone, and the mental pressure was quite great. After calming down with great effort, she lay down again.

It was still pitch black and she kept falling, almost unable to breathe.

Meng Yin tried to open her eyes. She was conscious, but she couldn't open her eyes. The tingling feeling kept coming to her mind.

"Ayin! Ayin!"

Gu Ling's call woke her up. Meng Yin panted quickly and looked at him in panic.

"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?" Gu Ling asked, stroking her back with his big hands.

Meng Yin nodded and shook her head: "It's like a nightmare... but there's nothing much to it. It's more like sleep paralysis."

She bit her lip and hugged Gu Ling.

"Is it because I killed someone last night that this happened?"

Gu Ling shook his head and said affirmatively: "No, you didn't kill him. Ayin, don't be afraid, I will sleep with you."

He gently placed Meng Yin on the pillow and quickly took off his shoes. Fortunately, he had taken a shower, otherwise he would have hated himself.

Meng Yin was still in shock. She curled up into a ball and was held in Gu Ling's arms.

She knew clearly that it was not because she stabbed people with a dagger, because she did not have any psychological pressure, it must be some other reason.

What is it... Meng Yin thought about this question and fell asleep again.

-

The rain fell on him, mixing with his tears. He didn't feel cold, nor did he feel scared. His mind kept flashing back to the image of a slender hand holding a knife and piercing his brother's thigh again and again.

"elder brother……"

He Xiaozhou howled to the sky, but no one responded except the crackling rain.

He clenched his fists and beat his chest repeatedly.

"I am such a loser...Ah!!!"

Mixed in with his memories are the love his brother usually had for him. Even when he was cowardly and irresponsible, his brother would always stand in front of him like a shield.

But now, my brother is being tortured in the dungeon, with wounds on his thigh from being stabbed by that woman. Gu Ling must have put a poisonous insect in his body!

“Ah…” He Xiaotian held his head and cried, he hated himself for being unable to do anything.

Suddenly, he felt a shadow in front of him. Looking up, he saw a tall and thin man holding an umbrella and looking at him with a smile.

He Xiaozhou subconsciously thought it was someone from the Soul Devouring Hall, and he was so scared that he tried to run away, but the person grabbed his arm and said, "Why are you panicking? I'm here to help you."

He Xiaozhou was stunned and wiped the water drops from his face: "Help me?"

The man smiled, his eyes expressionless, his deep facial features looked like a soulless sculpture in the night.

"Yes, you are from the Soul Devouring Hall, right? The Soul Devouring Hall seems to be calm recently, but I didn't expect..."

He turned his beads around, obviously talking about what happened tonight.

He Xiaozhou felt the pressure from him and said with trembling teeth, "You are helping yourself, you want to know the news about the Soul Devouring Hall from me."

The man squatted down and said, "Boy, you are right. It is a win-win situation."

He Xiaozhou asked: "Why did you come to me... I am also from the Soul Devouring Hall, aren't you afraid that I will tell him?"

A muffled laugh came out of the man's throat, as if he was mocking him: "The Soul Devouring Hall has eliminated the thief tonight, and I think they are celebrating now. You are here like this, let me guess..."

His eyes moved back and forth over He Xiaozhou's body, and He Xiaozhou suddenly discovered that his eyes were green.

"Ah... Are there any relatives or friends of yours among the rebels? That's why you are here, am I right?"

He Xiaozhou was irritated by his nonchalant tone and yelled for the first time in his life: "So what!"

"Don't be angry." Miao Ke said calmly, "Your cooperation with me is equivalent to revenge."

He Xiaozhou was stunned. He saw the determination in the man's eyes. This was a confidence he did not have. He could feel that this man was definitely not simple.

Miao Ke stroked her chin, speaking slowly and frivolously, "Well - Gu Ling. I heard that he is a genius in poison. I would really like to meet him."

He Xiaozhou said: "Not only him, the women around him are also very powerful, and they play my brother around."

"Oh?" Miao Ke's eyes suddenly brightened up, emitting an eerie green in the darkness. "This actually makes me more interested."

He took out a handkerchief from his bosom and threw it on He Xiaozhou's face: "How about it? Cooperate with me."

He Xiaozhou looked at the handkerchief in his hand, then looked at Miao Ke's face.

He realized that he had no choice. If he didn't cooperate with him, he would never be able to take revenge, his brother would die in the dungeon, and the man in front of him would not let him leave.

Suddenly, a muffled thunder sounded in the sky, and the image of his brother lying on the ground flashed through his mind.

Originally, he could have lived a carefree life hiding in the safe haven of his brother.

But now, he has nothing. He has no distinguished family background, no powerful martial arts, and he is still so cowardly and incompetent that he cannot avenge his brother.

Only by using the man in front of me can I kill that woman and destroy the Soul Devouring Palace!

He Xiaozhou wiped his face several times with a handkerchief. The hatred in his heart continued to grow like thorns, and finally wrapped around his bright red heart, absorbing nutrients and dripping dirty blood.

"I'll go with you, I want revenge!!!" He Xiaozhou shouted.

Miao Ke smiled with relief and said, "Stand up."

-

The sun sets on the mountainside and the geese carry the sun on their backs.

According to what Tao Tao said to Yi Qing in the morning, he found an excuse in the evening to let Pang Ren go out for a few days.

Pang Ren felt something was wrong and asked tentatively, "Young Master, in the past, the account check was done by the accountant. Why is it that today..."

The person on the couch glanced at him impatiently, and the pen on his fingers kept turning.

"Why, now Chief Steward Pang has so much power that he can interfere with my decision?"

Pang Ren lowered his head and said, "I dare not."

Yiqing said: "Why don't you go down?"

"Yes, my lord."

Pang Ren clenched his hands, held back his anger, bowed respectfully and left the study.

Finally getting rid of this trouble, Yiqing stood up and strode towards the yard.

In the courtyard, Tao Tao was sitting under a golden osmanthus tree reading a medical book. The warm yellow light shining on her caught his eye more than usual.

Yiqing came forward and sat next to her. Tao Tao saw the figure, raised her head and asked, "Ah Qing."

Hearing her call, Yi Qing nodded with satisfaction and said, "I have arranged for Pang Ren to go out for a few days."

Tao Tao smiled and said, "Great, I have just arranged for Ah Shuo to pass on the news in the evening."

Yi Qing said: "Okay, just in time to deal with him before I look for the jade slip."

Tao Tao asked, "Speaking of the jade slips, did Young Master Xiahou and the others give you any news?"

Yiqing shook his head: "No, it's not easy to find the jade slip. I think it will take some time."

Tao Tao looked depressed, and Yi Qing was about to comfort her, but she immediately cheered up and said, "Okay, let's do the things in front of us first."

"A Tao, don't worry, I will get the jade slip." Yi Qing said.

Tao Tao nodded: "I believe you. Okay, I'm going to read a book."

After saying that, she lowered her head and continued to look as if no one was around, with her finger under her lips, looking very serious.
