From the beginning, they chose middle-aged men as their target, gradually started new research, and now they even target children, which has reached a point of being crazy.

"Bang, bang, bang!!" The sounds of metal collision brought the children back to reality.

It was the sound of the guard banging the iron bars with the butt of his knife, cursing at the children: "You idiots, why are you making so much noise when you're not sleeping? Do you believe I'll go in and give you a good time? Why are you howling so late at night? You unlucky creatures! You keep causing trouble for me all day long... Haha! You're keeping me awake and my ears dry!"

These children have all been beaten to varying degrees and have a deep fear of people holding knives.

Suddenly the cell fell silent. The children stared outside the cell with frightened eyes, and their bodies involuntarily pressed against the inner wall of the stone chamber. Only by pressing their backs against the stone wall could they have a brief sense of security.

"Why aren't you howling anymore? Huh!? Keep going! You bastards! You are such scoundrels! You don't listen to what I say and insist on making me lose my temper. If I hear you crying again, I'll make you watch out! Humph!" The guard warned angrily.

No child dared to make a sound at this time. Some children were even afraid that they would scream out in fright, so they desperately covered their mouths with their hands, tears welling up in their eyes, but they dared not make a sound.

They knew very well that if they disobeyed they would not only be beaten but also put in solitary confinement. They already had an inexplicable fear of unfamiliar environments, and being locked up alone in a small dark room would only deepen their fear. If they dared to cry, they would be severely beaten. They were all scared of being beaten, and they felt inexplicably afraid when they saw people with knives.

The youngest among the children is probably only four or five years old. He is forgetful and does not remember being beaten. He will repeat the same thing after a while.

If these children were not useful, the guards would want to kill all these annoying kids to avoid disturbing people's sleep.

Seeing that they were sensible, they could finally quiet down for a while. Maybe these bastards could even fall asleep in fear. The guard spat on the ground and left cursing.

"I'm warning you bastards, if anyone disobeys and makes trouble again, I'll spank them..."

Before he could finish the rest of the sentence, his voice suddenly stopped...

Fu Ling had to get up early tomorrow, so he was planning to go to bed early tonight. Just as he lay down and was about to fall asleep, he suddenly received a reminder from the system to get a reward.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully slapping the face, and obtaining points. Total points, rewards: Spiritual Spring Water*3500, and rare fruit trees*5]

The eyes that were originally closed suddenly opened.

She turned on the system screen and began to browse the message records. She had some vague guesses. After two days, she concluded that Lu Beichen had made a breakthrough.

Ever since Lu Beichen bound himself to the system, all the rewards for the heads he harvested would fall on her.

With this thought, the original plan to go to bed early was put on hold again, and Fu Ling flashed into the boundary bead.

When she came out again, she was wearing a black tights, which made her figure look slim and graceful, and with a beautiful face, she looked so cool.

Before leaving, she didn't forget to bind the teleportation point, affixed the invisibility talisman and the curse-breaking talisman on her body, and then took out the teleportation white jade and teleported to Lu Beichen's side...

Lu Beichen killed the guard with one sword, then turned around to check on the children with concern. They were obviously frightened. They hid in the corner, curled up and shivered, with expressions of fear on their faces.

But among these children, Lu Beichen spotted a special one. He was covered in dirt, with bruises on his face, clearly from being beaten. He looked to be about eight or nine years old… but his eyes didn't show any trace of fear, but rather… hatred?

The look in his eyes seemed to want to tear the guard into pieces.

Lu Beichen was very confused. It was really shocking that such a young child had such deep hatred in his heart.

Lu Beichen developed a strong interest in this child.

When Fu Ling came, she was among the children. If she hadn't dodged quickly, she would have stepped on a child's foot the moment she appeared.

She dodged hurriedly, secretly feeling proud that she had already mastered the Lingbo Weibu technique to perfection, and could teleport anywhere according to her thoughts.

Before he could feel proud for long, he was suddenly pulled into a warm embrace. The two of them pressed tightly together. The entire stone chamber was so quiet that they could hear each other's heartbeats clearly.

After a long time, Lu Beichen took her hand and disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, the two were in an empty corner.

Perhaps because he hadn't rested for too long, his voice was hoarse.

Lu Beichen asked softly, "Wife, why are you here? Isn't tomorrow your father's birthday? Go back and get some rest, or you won't be able to get out of bed tomorrow. Leave this to me, go back and get some rest."

Lu Beichen's voice told him that he hadn't slept for a long time, which made Fu Ling feel distressed. He quickly took out a bottle of spiritual spring water and handed it to him before answering him:

"I figured you might have some clues, so I came over to help you. Honey, how long have you been awake? Why is your voice so hoarse?"

Taking the bottle of spiritual spring water and looking at his wife's eyes full of concern, Lu Beichen smiled slightly, but his face was pale and bloodless. He shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

"Wife, I'm fine... I've been tracking down the whereabouts of the Dark Guard Camp for the past few days. Fortunately, I've made a breakthrough. I've found the Dark Guard leader and have been following him for the past few days. He's been rushing to get back here as soon as possible, so I had no choice but to follow him..."

He briefly recounted what had happened in the past few days.

It would have been better if he didn't say anything. After he finished telling her what had happened in the past few days, Fu Ling felt even more distressed when she learned that he hadn't slept for several days and stroked his face.

"Hubby, I haven't seen you for just a few days, and you've lost weight." She looked at Lu Beichen with eyes full of pity. Any man would feel pity for him.

"It's okay, I can still handle it. Even if I don't drink the spiritual spring water for a few days, it's fine. What's more, I still have the spiritual spring water you gave me. So, don't worry about me. As long as you take good care of yourself, I can rest assured."

"I'm doing fine here. I was taken back to the palace a few days ago."

"Is it because the emperor's birthday is approaching, or is it for some other reason?"

Fu Ling wasn't surprised by his alertness and replied truthfully, "I killed Xuanyuan Zhaoyuan. Her disappearance was so mysterious that my mother was worried about my safety, so she sent someone to bring me back to the palace."

Then he glanced around and asked, "Is this the place where weirdos are bred?"

"Yes." Lu Beichen nodded slightly.

"Let's talk about it later. As usual, let's split up."

"it is good!"
