Just when Chen Banbai was about to be stared at like a sieve, Situ Xue took the lead to look away, and naturally stepped forward to say hello to He Cong'an, and said a few polite words.

He Cong'an replied with a stiff tone.Being watched by Lin Henian, King Cen and others, he had an intuition that if he spoke badly and embarrassed Situ Xue, these people would kill him.

He Cong'an felt that it was a mistake for him to come.

But if it wasn't for Chen Banbai, he really didn't want to come.

He Cong'an glanced at Chen Banbai, who had lowered his brows and downcast eyes, and there was another evil fire rising up. He was aggrieved here, but this person was quiet and quiet.

As soon as Situ Xue led the people away, He Cong'an threw a teacup towards Chen Banbai.

The teacup was filled with tea, and the cup hit the wall next to Chen Banbai, but the water spilled on Chen Banbai's body, and a cracked fragment cut a hole in Chen Banbai's ear, and the blood dropped immediately.

Situ Xue heard the movement, and looked at Chen Banbai through the translucent curtain, only to see the young man who dared not lift his head, standing motionless like a wooden stake, with plum blossom-like blood drops on the white It is particularly dazzling on the ears.

Cen Wang naturally also heard the movement, he didn't pay attention to Chen Banbai, he only thought that He Cong'an was deliberately targeting Situ Xue, and his face immediately became uneasy: "This He Cong'an..."

Situ Xue looked away and smiled: "Miss He is young, so don't be too concerned about some actions."

Cen Wang shook his head: "She is not a few years younger than you."

Situ Xue didn't answer, and walked to another box.

He naturally had to meet the guests on the third floor one by one today.

In the private room, Lin Henian's face was a little more indifferent than before, and he said to He Cong'an: "If I were you, I wouldn't do these small actions that hurt my face."

"I lost this teacup to my slave, not Situ Xue, so you have to take care of that?" He Cong'an retorted: "I don't think I lost face, but you, my good cousin, why do you... ..." Surrounding Situ Xue like a dog?After all, you are only in the imperial capital, the youngest number one scholar so far!

He Cong'an couldn't say the following words, because Lin Henian's cold eyes seemed to be able to freeze him, and He Cong'an's desire to survive stopped him.

His status is not bad, but compared to those men around Situ Xue, including his cousin Lin Henian, he is nothing now.

The identity of a girl helped his mother change from a side concubine to a stepmother, and turned him from a concubine to a legitimate son, but because of this, all his futures were also stifled, and power and status had nothing to do with him.

This is why he is so passive now.He Cong'an calmed down, and snorted at Lin Henian: "You don't have to look at me like this, as if I've done something unreasonable."

Lin Henian said coldly: "There's no need to argue, your petty thoughts are well known to everyone."

"You're unreasonable, what's wrong with me teaching my servant?" He Cong'an said as he casually took a pastry and threw it at Chen Banbai. The pastry hit Chen Banbai's head and rolled down Hair was covered in debris.

He Cong'an killed him because he was targeting his slave and not Situ Xue, and Lin Henian didn't continue to argue with him.

But the atmosphere in the box was worse than before.

Lin Ling on the side glanced at He Cong'an and then at Lin Henian. In the end, he didn't say anything, drinking his tea quietly. During this period, he glanced at the embarrassed young man with a little curiosity, but the young man was always humble. With his head down, there is nothing to look at.

The banquet officially started with the arrival of Situ Xue. After a while, the kitchen began to serve hot dishes. Halfway through the meal, Prince Qin and the Crown Prince arrived together.

Although the two didn't stay for long, they just showed up and gave gifts and blessings before leaving, but those were the Chu Jun and Prince Qin!

In the past, only the most favored and important officials had the face to let the two of them come to congratulate them specially, especially the prince who was in poor health also came here dragging his sick body at this time, how could Situ Xue be able?

However, these two people gave Situ Xue such favors. Whether other people are jealous or disdainful, they can't change this fact.

He Cong'an didn't have much appetite, and he barely touched the dishes on the table, that is, he drank some tea.

Seeing other people praising Situ Xue crazily, he felt like sitting on pins and needles and wanted to leave, but he still held back.

Today can't be in vain, just do something.

Then, He Cong'an looked at Chen Banbai.

Chen Banbai seemed to have eyes on his head, and suddenly raised his head.

He Cong'an understood the hint in Chen Banbai's eyes, but when he looked carefully at it, he found that Chen Banbai lowered his head again, like a low-browed and pleasing daughter-in-law.

"..." If he hadn't seen Chen Banbai's true face, he might have been deceived by this person's appearance.

He Cong'an found an excuse to keep the maid, and then left the box alone with Chen Banbai, and came to the backyard.

Yunque Tower is the most famous and luxurious restaurant in the imperial capital. Apart from the restaurant itself, the Yunque Garden located behind the restaurant is also famous in the imperial capital for its superb views.

Yunque Garden is not open to the public, and only guests who have reached a certain amount of points in Yunque Building are eligible to enter.

At this moment, Yunque Garden was quiet and quiet, completely isolated from the noise of the restaurant.

Walking on the long corridor with no one in front and behind, Chen Banbai pinched his neck to relieve the soreness, and suddenly there was a soft and warm touch on his ears.

He Cong'an wiped Chen Banbai's ears with a handkerchief, but the blood on his ears was all dry, "Is your ear okay?"

Chen Banbai took a step back and said, "Don't rub it, it hurts a bit."

"Squeamish." He Cong'an complained, but there was a little discomfort in his eyes, "I'll get you medicine when I go back, so I won't leave you with scars."

Chen Banbai nodded dispensably. He just wanted to explain something to He Cong'an, asking He Cong'an to lead Situ Xue to the garden, but when he saw something abnormal, his pupils constricted.

I saw the arch not far away, and the white wall began to crack, and then blood oozes out.

The weird scene made Chen Banbai doubt his mental state immediately, but soon he realized something was wrong.

This is not a hallucination caused by his mental problems.

"He Cong'an..."

"What's wrong?" He Cong'an froze for a moment when he heard Chen Banbai's hoarse voice. This was the first time Chen Banbai called his name.

Chen Banbai stretched out his hand, tugged on He Cong'an's sleeve, and motioned him to look in the direction of the door in front of the corridor: "What is that?"

He Cong'an followed Chen Banbai's line of sight, turned around to look at it, and when he saw it, he was breathless, and immediately grabbed Chen Banbai's arm.

"Let's go!" He wanted to pull Chen Banbai away, but at this moment, the blood color seemed to be stimulated, and then it began to spread towards this side at a double speed, and it passed the soles of the two people's feet in the blink of an eye. Ruo Wu's bloody smell enveloped them.

He Cong'an looked unhappy, "I can't go anymore."

He looked at Chen Banbai who didn't seem to know what happened, and said, "You must follow me closely later."

Chen Banbai noticed that this place, whether it's leaves, tree trunks, flowers, pillars, guardrails, or floors, all present a sense of dilapidation and desolation, while a few seconds ago it was clearly full of vitality and thriving. .

He asked suspiciously, "What's going on?"

He Cong'an took Chen Banbai's arm and walked towards the direction with the strongest bloody smell. He was not a riddler, so he explained to Chen Banbai in short: "People in Yuecheng have a probability of awakening when they are 13 years old. Those who follow will have the ability to control..."

He Cong settled down for a while, and spit out two words: "Ghost."

"Weak people can only see ghosts and communicate simply. There are very few people with extraordinary talents. They can awaken multiple times and control multiple ghosts. Once these people make a full shot, they even have the ability to transform the environment within a certain range. .”

Chen Banbai followed He Cong'an's footsteps while listening to He Cong'an's science popularization: "Reform the environment? Like now?"

"Yes, rather than being transformed, it is more accurate to say that this place has been polluted." He Cong'an's face has never been so ugly: "We can't go out now, the only way It’s about finding the person who made the shot.”

After He Cong'an explained, he pursed his lips and didn't make another sound. Although he kept walking, he was always observing the surrounding situation vigilantly.

A polluted place will not only be isolated from the outside world, but the place itself has become synonymous with danger.

Chen Banbai didn't continue to ask questions, he fell into a deep thought.

Smell and what can be seen with the naked eye are not the most important things to Chen Banbai. The feeling the whole environment gives him is the reason why Chen Banbai thinks.

He has experienced three dungeons, and the environment of each dungeon is very different without the slightest similarity, but now he suddenly realizes that the feeling given to him by the polluted environment in this dungeon is actually the same as the feeling given to him in the big environment in the previous dungeon. consistent.

But the seemingly normal outside world gave him a feeling of another world.

Chen Banbai didn't know what this feeling represented, and he couldn't capture useful information for the time being, but he didn't take it seriously, but kept it in his heart.

He vaguely felt that this had something to do with the nature of these dungeons.

Is the dungeon considered by him and everyone in Dawn City really just a game world?Are these worlds real or fake?What is the meaning of existence?

And what is the purpose of what they do?

When Chen Banbai came back to his senses, he and He Cong'an had passed through the arch, walked along a winding path, and then came to a lake surrounded by flowers and trees, like a paradise pavilion.

At this time, there were still two people standing in the Huxin Pavilion.

The facial features of young people are thick and colorful, but their temperament is cold. The tall women's facial features are plain, but they are heroic and noble.

He Cong'an recognized the identities of the two people, "Situ Xue, Yan Chuxi?"

Yan, is the surname of the Yuecheng royal family. Yan Chuxi is the only princess of the royal family. She is very favored. She has been away for a long time and rarely returns to the imperial capital. He did not expect to see her here.

Chen Banbai's focus was on Situ Xue.

There are many irregular white shadows on Situ Xue's body, they have no entity, so they can shuttle around Situ Xue without hindrance, and this process seems to have brought great pain to Situ Xue, his face is as pale as paper, It even turned blue.

Chen Banbai's eyes were very good. He noticed that the corners of Situ Xue's mouth were still red, and his naturally hanging hands were also convulsing uncontrollably.

At this time, Yan Chuxi, who had been paying attention to Situ Xue, also noticed the arrival of the unexpected guest.

She also recognized He Cong'an, her sharp eyes were slightly relaxed, and she waved to He Cong'an.

As he got closer, He Cong'an also noticed something was wrong with Situ Xue.

Not surprisingly, it was Yan Chuxi who shot, and the target of the shot should be Situ Xue. After realizing this, He Cong'an felt a little more relieved.

If they dare to clean up Situ Xue, then they are friends!

He Cong'an's thoughts were written all over his face, Yan Chuxi laughed and said, "I accidentally got you involved, don't worry, I'll send you out later."

He Cong'an nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

It was a good thing that they met Yan Chuxi, if there were any villains, a fierce battle would be unavoidable.

Yan Chuxi suddenly looked at Chen Banbai, and said, "Since you brought a slave, you might as well make the best use of everything."

Before He Cong'an could react, Yan Chuxi waved his hand, and a gust of wind blew Chen Banbai away and landed in the lake.

He Cong'an's eyes widened in surprise: "Princess?"

"There must be a reason for me to teach this slave here today, otherwise the prince will be unhappy if he finds out." Yan Chuxi pursed her lips and smiled: "Situ Xue spoke rudely to you, your slave loyally protects the master and pushed him into the water Go here, you ordered the slaves to save people, you don't want to..."

Yan Chuxi made a choice and said, "Forget it, Situ Xue can't die for the time being, so let your slave die in this lake alone."

Yan Chuxi arranged everything on her own, then raised her brows at He Cong'an: "You won't be reluctant to part with a slave, right? Otherwise, you can go and replace him yourself, so...it doesn't seem too bad?"

The woman didn't hide her murderous intentions. He Cong'an shuddered and gritted his teeth: "Is the princess too deceitful? I am not precious as a slave, but the face of my He family has never been trampled on even by the prince."

Yan Chuxi smiled but said, "He Cong'an, don't know what is good or bad. I am helping you deal with Situ Xue. Don't you always hate him? You are as cowardly as a mouse. I will help you. You should thank me."

He Cong'an turned cold: "After so many years, the princess is still the same as before."

When he was young, He Cong'an not only played with King Cen, but also with Dayan Chuxi. They went to school together, stayed together often, and separated when they were older.When he was young, Yan Chuxi was extremely arrogant and domineering. When he grew up, he thought that Yan Chuxi had changed, but he didn't expect that it was just a superficial effort, but in his heart he was still the same as before.

Yan Chuxi was noncommittal, she looked at Situ Xue who was breathing lightly again, and a trace of undisguised disgust flashed in her eyes: "Situ Xue, you really don't regret dying!"

Situ Xue was tortured until his whole body was as cold as iron, and even raising his eyes seemed to be extremely forceful. He didn't say anything, but there seemed to be a mockery in his eyes.

"Hmph." Seeing this, Yan Chuxi kept a cold face, and repeated the action she had made to Chen Banbai just now.

He Cong'an looked at the lake. After struggling for a while, Chen Banbai and Situ Xue fell into the bottom of the lake together. He could only see the unsettled lake, but could not see the specific appearance of the two of them.

Suddenly, He Cong'an asked, "Why can't Situ Xue die here directly?"

"Of course it's because he's still useful." Yan Chuxi also looked at the lake, and didn't explain to He Cong'an after she finished speaking. She stood there for about 2 minutes and said, "Go find someone to rescue Situ Xue."

"Don't play tricks, Situ Xue really died here, I can't keep you."

After the words fell, the Huxin Pavilion, which was blown by the gloomy wind, was like washed clothes, glowing with bright colors again.

Yan Chuxi left, and He Cong'an looked at her back with fear hidden in his eyes. This woman's noble character must be boasting, but her strength is real.

The royal family is worthy of being a royal family. It seems that it is favored by heaven from top to bottom. Not only can most people wake up, but they are also talented.

In the lake, Chen Banbai sank slowly in order to pretend to be drowning, holding his breath in the water while paying attention to the situation at the lake pavilion.

If they insisted on letting him die here, then he had to be prepared to fight back and flee.

But things didn't seem to be that far, Yan Chuxi left and asked He Cong'an to save her.

Now that his life was no longer in danger, Chen Banbai decided to think about other things. He first surfaced the water to take a breath, then sank back to the bottom of the lake, and then swam towards a figure.

When Chen Banbai hugged the sinking Situ Xue, he felt as if he was hugging an ice cube. He wanted to pull him upstream, but Situ Xue was dead, as if unconscious, and did not cooperate at all.

Chen Banbai only knows how to swim, but he is not proficient in it. Just now he has exhausted a lot of physical strength for acting, and now he is physically weak, and he feels unable to hold his breath for a long time.

If this continues, both of them will really die in this lake.

When Chen Banbai was thinking about throwing Situ Xue away, he suddenly realized that although Situ Xue seemed to have lost consciousness, he did not have the uncomfortable reaction that he should have when drowning.

When he leaned over to observe, he was suddenly rushed forward by the water, and his lips touched a cold soft spot.

The eyelashes of the person in front of him trembled slightly, and he suddenly opened his eyes.

A pair of eyes washed out by the water are like a watercolor painting, as beautiful as a dream.

The next second, Chen Banbai noticed that Situ Xue was hugging him instead, and kissed him proactively, to be precise, to breathe out for him.

Chen Banbai didn't know why Situ Xue was able to pass his breath to him, so he seized the opportunity and continued upstream.

Dragging the iron-like Situ Xue to the surface of the water, Chen Banbai's eyes turned black, and he breathed heavily.

He wanted to pull Situ Xue to the shore, but out of the corner of his eyes, he had already caught sight of someone approaching, so he simply let his exhaustion and weakness invade him, and at the same time, he held Situ Xue's hand tightly.

He hoped that Situ Xue would not forget to take him with him when he was rescued.
