Chen Xi opened his eyes again, and he had already arrived in a new room. There was no light in the room, so he could see a little more clearly under the moonlight.

He saw Yun'er leaning against a wall, listening to the movement next door.

The windows were opened wide, letting in the fine wind.

There were guards patrolling outside the door, the nobleman should have reserved this floor, Chen Xi could see that Yun'er probably didn't come in through the window.

But this place is on the fifth floor, and Yun'er doesn't know magic skills, so I don't know how hard it took to get here.

The quarrel between Shen Li and the nobleman next door was very loud, Chen Xi couldn't understand the words "inheriting the descendants but not the virtuous", and Yun'er was also puzzled.

After a while, the two seemed to be tired of arguing, and their voices were much lower, but it was hard to hear what they were talking about.

Then, suddenly there was the crisp sound of porcelain falling to the ground, the sound of pushing and shoving, and Ali's roar: "If you dare to touch me, I will never forgive you in this life!"

A deep voice replied: "Anyway, you will never forgive me."

Then there was Ali's exclamation, and the sound of struggling.

Chen Xi vaguely felt that something was going to happen next door, so he couldn't help but look at Yun'er.

At this moment, Yun'er was tightly covering her mouth, trembling all over, as if she was frightened, and seemed to be suppressing her emotions.

Seeing this, Chen Xi approached to comfort him, but his hand directly passed Yun'er's shoulder. He was taken aback for a moment, then smiled self-deprecatingly and shook his head.

Yes, this is an illusion, too deep into the drama.

It was late, and there was no candle in the room, and Chen Xi finally saw Yun'er's eyes clearly when he got closer—the usually charming eyes were wide open helplessly, with a puddle of water in the eye sockets, stubbornly slumping. Too late to shed.

Those who saw it were inevitably distressed and moved, Chen Xi sighed softly: "Oh, why bother to ask for trouble..."

At this time, Ali's cry of pain suddenly came from the next door, the voice seemed to want to cry but couldn't, and it was accompanied by panting, like the joy of extreme pain.

Yun'er was obviously stunned for a moment, and then tears burst out of her eyes instantly.

Why are you crying?Chen Xi was affected and felt uncomfortable.

Gradually, the voice changed.

Chen Xi was stunned, and suddenly realized that what happened...

Seeing that Yun'er was crying more and more fiercely, she still covered her mouth fiercely with her hand, trying her best not to make a sound.

Chen Xi was at a loss immediately, and the situation he was in was too weird...

The next door was turning upside down, and the person in front of him was crying so hard that he was about to faint, but he couldn't hear the slightest cry, and what filled his ears was the extremely ambiguous moaning/groaning sound.

What's even more frightening is that he can't do anything at all but wait for the scene to change.

For a long time, the next door stopped.

Yun'er also seemed to be tired from crying, and finally moved. He sat on the ground directly, and finally buried his face in his knees.

Chen Xi sat down next to him, and swallowed the words of relief, even if he said it, the other party couldn't hear it.

The moonlight outside the window suddenly became surprisingly bright, following the wind, it scattered all over the ground.

Chen Xi couldn't touch it, let alone feel it, he just felt extremely depressed.

Being in the illusion, it is inevitable that he will be affected by the protagonist's emotions, but it is the first time he has seen such hopeless love.

Suddenly, the ambiguous voice from the next door broke the silence of the room.

Is it over yet?

Chen Xi wailed helplessly, when did he get so big!

He doesn't want to listen to this kind of corner!

Finally, it was dawn.

The passage of time in the illusion was different from the outside world, but Chen Xi still felt a little tired.

Yun'er on the side finally raised his head, his eyes were red and swollen from crying, like two big walnuts, he looked a little happy, but Chen Xi couldn't laugh at all.

This illusion is too depressing and suffocating, he just wants to finish the scene quickly and find the eye of the formation.

"Dawn breaks dawn," Yun'er gazed at the gradually brightening sky outside the window, and murmured to herself, "but my whole life has been in the dark..."

Chen Xi followed his gaze to look over, the window was gray, as if he would never see the sun.

There was another movement next door, the sound of the door opening.

Yun'er heard this, stood up abruptly, and said in panic: "If I miss today, I will never see him again!"

Before he finished speaking, he stumbled to open the door like a lost soul, and ran out.

Good guy, that nobleman's status must be extraordinary, and now he went out to have a face-to-face meeting, wouldn't he be sent to death? !

Chen Xi wanted to stop him, but he was powerless. He was just a bystander who broke in.

Chen Xi didn't have to leave, he stood outside the door in a blink of an eye.

Yun'er had been caught by the guards and was forced to kneel down, his face was numb and he stared at the front without moving.

In front of him, yesterday's tall man in black uniform was holding a person in his arms.

The man was wrapped in a small blanket, his long hair was disheveled, and one hand was hanging down weakly. There were faint traces of bruises on the exposed white skin.

Yun'er burst into tears, but could no longer shed tears, calling out: "A Li..."

The man showed displeasure, and glanced at the person in his arms, seeing that the person was still sleeping peacefully, his face softened a lot, he hugged the person firmly and left.

When passing by Yun'er, Yun'er suddenly bent down and grabbed the man's feet, crying, "I beg you! Let me, let me take another look at Ali!"

The man was forced to stop and cast a sideways glance: "Who are you? Are you worthy of calling him like that?"

"I... I want to see him for the last time..."

The man didn't answer, but gave the guard a cold look.

The guards grabbed Yun'er and were about to take him down, but Yun'er was struggling desperately.

"Wait." Shen Li's voice sounded, his voice became hoarse due to excessive crying.

The man lowered his eyes to look into his arms, and asked warmly, "Is it disturbing you?"

Shen Li: "Let him go."

The man's expression darkened: "Why did he call you 'Ali'?"

"It has nothing to do with him, he is innocent." Last night was too crazy, Shen Li couldn't cheer up, "I'm tired, let's go..."

"it is good."

Standing aside, Chen Xi couldn't enjoy watching, and before he had time to sigh, the scene changed.

In the blink of an eye, he came to the private room of Nanfeng Pavilion, and there were two men sitting and drinking wine, one older with long beards and one younger.

Behind the long-bearded man was a young lady who was squeezing his shoulders, while Yun'er was pouring wine for the two of them.

After Yun'er finished pouring the wine, the young man pulled Yun'er into his arms, kissed him and said with a smile, "Yun'er, you smell so sweet!"

Chen Xi didn't want to see these scenes, so he simply turned his back.

Just listen to the long-bearded man say: "The new emperor's accession to the throne is really ruthless. First, he slaughtered the prime minister's family, and now he wants to cut King An Ning's power."

"Oh, didn't you agree to just have fun tonight and not talk about business?" The young man said, "But I have met Shen Li, the son of the prime minister's family, a few times, and he is a well-deserved personable and modest gentleman. It's a pity to be beheaded like this..."

Shen Li?

Hearing this name, Chen Xi was taken aback, could it be the same person?

Shen Li is dead?

Thinking about it, Chen Xi turned back to look at Yun'er, who was nestled in the man's arms with a thoughtful expression.

Chen Xi heard Yun'er's heartfelt thoughts, and only then did he know that the prime minister's family was wiped out half a month ago, and Shen Li had been staying in Nanfeng Pavilion for the past half month, and was taken away the day before yesterday.

The time is not right, it can't be the resurrection of the dead, could it be two people with the same name and surname?

But Chen Xi felt that it was the same person, because only this Shen Li could be called a modest gentleman.

Perhaps the nobleman trapped Shen Li in Nanfeng Pavilion on purpose, so that he could escape death.

The long-bearded man echoed: "Yes, what a pity, such a good seedling, how suitable to be crushed under me hahaha!"

"Hahaha, what a pity!" The young man laughed loudly.

Chen Xi couldn't help but rolled his eyes. He really wanted to give these two people a good beating with their disgusting faces!

Unconcealable anger appeared on Yun'er's face, he reached for the wine bottle, just wanting to smash to death these two people who were disrespectful to Ali.

But another young man who was present quickly snatched the wine bottle away, and only heard him say: "Yun'er, you look so bad, you must be unwell, go and rest first."

Seeing this situation, Chen Xi felt aggrieved, but also heaved a sigh of relief. He never expected that the young man would notice something was wrong so quickly. If Yun'er really threw the wine bottle at him, he might not know how to end it.

Then, the scene changed, and he returned to the room, and now it was Yun'er and the Pavilion Master sitting opposite each other.

I only heard the pavilion master say: "I have returned the jade pendant, and I will not pursue the matter of you receiving the gift in private."

Jade pendant?The jade pendant that Shen Li redeemed for Yun'er?

Hearing that redemption was a failure, Chen Xi let out a long sigh and went to sit down, seeing Yun'er with her head down, wondering what she was thinking.

The pavilion master held Yun'er's hand: "I don't know what that Shen Li said to you, which made you want to leave. You have been in Nanfeng Pavilion for ten years, and your godfather has never treated you badly. Now you are only one step away from the top card." , why did you give up? Didn’t the previous efforts come to naught? Godfather couldn’t bear to see you like this, so he dissuaded you. Besides, you have been in the cabinet for so many years, what else do you do besides serving people? If you leave rashly, you will not be able to survive outside.”

"Godfather is right, I can do nothing but please men," Yun'er chuckled abruptly, "Thank you godfather, Yuner understands, Yuner was wrong."

Chen Xi stared at Yun'er with an expression of understanding, it was clearly a forced smile after hope was broken.

He heard Yun'er's inner voice, and knew that what Yun'er said was just playing tricks.

Shen Li let Yun'er see the beauty and gave Yun'er the light of hope.

Once there is the intention to quit, it will take root and sprout in the heart, and eventually grow into a towering tree in this muddy land.

It seems that the tree in Yun'er's heart has already flourished.

Seeing that the person admitted his mistake obediently, the pavilion master was very satisfied, took out a small wooden box and said: "You have almost taken the medicine, godfather brought it to you. This medicine is more effective, it can make the body softer and the skin softer." Bai Nen, I guarantee that people will never put it down! Yun'er, you will definitely be the top card in Nanfeng Pavilion in the future!"

After finishing speaking, the Pavilion Master opened the wooden box, took out a red pill and handed it over.

They still have to take medicine on weekdays. Chen Xi thought in his heart: Although this medicine is effective, it may have a negative impact on the body. Not only can it please the guests, but it is also a tool used by Nanfeng Pavilion to control the young men.

He knew that Yun'er didn't want to eat it, but with the current situation, the Pavilion Master was clearly using this to test him out.

Yun'er smiled, took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp: "Please worry about Godfather."

The Pavilion Master smiled and said, "Okay, as long as you understand."

After the pavilion master left, Yun'er immediately scratched her throat with her index finger and vomited the medicine raw.

Chen Xi sighed as he watched, he knew that no matter how hard Yun'er tried, he would not be able to escape, and he could only die with the entire Nanfeng Pavilion in the end.

The scene changed again, and Chen Xi came to the dim woodshed.

The door of the firewood room was closed tightly, airtight, and it was hard to breathe.

There are five people in the room, namely Yun'er, Pavilion Master and three strong men.

Yun'er was tied to a chair and was unconscious. She was wounded and probably received a severe beating.

I saw the pavilion master raised his hand to signal.

A strong man picked up a bucket and threw it at Yun'er.

Judging by their clothes, it should be winter, and ordinary people will not be able to bear the cold water.

Yun'er woke up, her eyes lost the brilliance of the past, and stared at the front indifferently.

Without further ado, the pavilion master stepped forward and slapped Yun'er hard, then pinched Yun'er's face to force him to look up, and roared angrily: "You still want to run away? I've worked so hard to train you for so many years, and you don't like this to me?"

Seeing this scene, Chen Xi clenched his fists tightly, and finally loosened them slowly.

This is an illusion, an illusion!

He warned himself again not to get too involved in the drama.

Facing the pavilion master's anger, Yun'er did not respond, her eyes were ashen.

The owner of the pavilion laughed back angrily: "Still running, can you run out of the imperial city? My eyeliner is everywhere, let me see where you can run!"

"Sneaking away with waste paper, why? Want to find Shen Li?" As he spoke, the Pavilion Master took out a few pieces of paper and threw them at Yun'er's face.

Yun'er finally had color in his eyes, and he looked hurriedly at the paper that fell to the ground—it was a copybook that Shen Li wrote in his spare time, and it was the only thing A Li left him.

"Hey, you still treat it as a treasure!" The pavilion master's tone was full of sarcasm, "Shen Li's unbelievable thing, the nobleman spared his life, and he went to seek death by himself."

Upon hearing this, Yun'er's expression changed drastically, as if her faith had been shattered, she shook her head repeatedly and said, "Impossible, A Li will not die! Impossible!"

What?Shen Li is still dead?

Chen Xi frowned and thought, that nobleman obviously treats Shen Li well, how could it be so?

It sounds like Shen Li is committing suicide, and it seems understandable, after all, the prime minister's family was wiped out, Shen Liyue didn't want to live alone after knowing the truth.

The pavilion master patted Yun'er's face and said with a sneer: "Do you want to go down and accompany him? I will not let you do what you want, let alone let you die easily!"

After finishing speaking, the pavilion master winked at the three strong men and asked, "Do you know how to make him behave?"

The strong men smiled, rubbed their hands, and nodded in panic.

The scene after that fell into chaos, mixed with screams, cries and laughter.

Chen Xi closed his eyes and covered his ears, but his heart was still uncontrollably uncomfortable.

God is really unfair. Some people are born with great dignity, but some people are so humble that they are not even as good as dry grass. Anyone can step on them a few times.

Chen Xi understood what happened afterwards: Yun'er was ashamed, and was sent to the kitchen to light a fire. During a dinner party in the pavilion, he stole poison and mixed it into the meal.

That night, no one in Nanfeng Pavilion was spared.

In the hall, Yun'er poured wine all over the floor. He raised the torch and looked indifferently at the poisonous corpses under his feet.

The sound of the torch falling to the ground was extremely dull, as if the door of death had been opened, and the fire followed, engulfing the entire Nanfeng Pavilion in an instant.

In the raging fire, Yun'er sat down leisurely, took out the copybook written by Shen Li, read it carefully for the last time, folded the paper and put it on his chest.

In the flames, he seemed to see that modest gentleman again, he raised his hand but put it down again, and finally only called out: "A Li..."

He didn't dare to say "I'm here to accompany you", because to Shen Li, he was just a stranger who had been with him for half a month.

Ali has someone he wants to meet...

Thinking of this, Yun'er suddenly smiled, sad and paranoid.

He has been self-willed once, and he will hide this feeling from now on, even if he dies, he can't bother Ali again.

Because he is the most humble dust, which will eventually dissipate like a cloud, and will never be worthy of the beautiful dawn when it breaks.

With the help of wine, the fire was extremely intense, and within a short while the huge Nanfeng Pavilion was on the verge of collapse.

Tongues of fire fluttered around in a majestic way, Yun'er clutched her chest, her face was calm, as if she couldn't feel any pain in the midst of it.

He looked up and saw a big hole was burned on the roof of Nanfeng Pavilion, and the faint light of the sky poured in, as if falling on him.

Dawn breaks.

Has his day finally dawned?

he does not know.

All he knew was that he was free.

Chen Xi stood aside and watched all this blankly. At this moment, he could not only hear Yun'er's inner voice, but also feel all the emotions.

He clearly knew that now was the best time to break the formation, but he couldn't do it no matter what.

He was indulging in sadness, and tears fell like this.

The fire has completely engulfed Yun'er, if he waits any longer, if the scene is repeated, his mood will be more and more eroded by the illusion, and he will not be able to break through.

But Chen Xi burst into tears, feeling that he didn't even have the strength to make a move.

Suddenly, his left wrist felt hot.

It was the little golden lock given to him by Master!

No, he can no longer be influenced.

For the sake of Master, he must also break the formation!

Chen Xi wiped away his tears and looked up at the sky above his head.

Although the master said that the eyes of the formation would change as the scene changed, what Yun'er hoped most was to escape from Nanfeng Pavilion.

Chen Xi can be sure that the eye of the formation is still the light of day.

Thinking, he cast a spell in that direction, and after a while, he was backlashed by the illusion, and he vomited a mouthful of blood.

As expected of a resentful spirit that has been raised for more than 30 years, it is really extraordinary that it can still protect the eyes of the array.

Chen Xi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, pulled out his sword, and used all his spiritual power to fly towards Tianguang.

The light of the sky flourished for a while, and he caught the trick.

After a long stalemate, Chen Xi felt that his spiritual power was being consumed, and the situation might not be good if it continued like this.

So he held a sword in one hand and cast spells in the other, but was beaten back by Tianguang.

hateful!

Excessive use of spiritual power made Chen Xi sweat profusely, and the hand holding the sword began to tremble.

At this time, the little golden lock on his wrist became hot again, and abundant spiritual energy was continuously poured into his body.

How could there be so much spiritual power hidden in the little golden lock?Chen Xi was puzzled, but took the opportunity to swing his sword back.

In an instant, the sky was split open, and after a burst of blinding light, a figure walked towards Chen Xi.

Chen Xi was exhausted, so he barely supported himself with his sword, and smiled weakly after seeing the person coming: "Master, I succeeded."

I'm about to fall down.

Lin Jingran quickly supported his apprentice: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left you alone."

He blamed himself a little, he thought that with the protection of Xiao Jinsuo, Chen Xi could break through the formation easily, but he didn't expect that the illusion was so strong that it made Xiao Xi weak like this.

He clasped Chen Xi's wrist and channeled spiritual power for healing.

Chen Xi was drowsy, so he simply embraced Master, rubbed his chin on Lin Jingran's shoulder, and murmured: "Master, I'm so tired..."

"It's okay, I'm here."
