Ruan xilu looked impatient. Seeing this, Little Dan immediately understood and flared up, " "Where are they? It's been so long and there's not even a report?"
"It's so late at night, and the dew is heavy. Are you going to let the Empress wait in the wilderness like this?"
"Even his Majesty has never been so harsh to the Empress. You all are truly bold!"
It was quiet outside, and there was no response.
Little Dan couldn't help but fly into a rage. She leaned forward and suddenly pulled open the curtain.
It was pitch black outside the palanquin. The Starlight and moonlight had disappeared without a trace, and he could not even see his fingers.
The rough outline of the mountains, rivers, and vegetation could still be seen just now, but at this moment, they had all blended into the boundless darkness.
Little Dan was stunned, unable to say a word.
"Xiao dan, what's wrong?" ruan xilu asked, sensing something was wrong.
Little Dan's expression was one of shock and fear. She paused for a moment before stuttering,"They ... They're all gone!"
Ruan xilu's brows furrowed slightly. She immediately stood up and walked out of the sedan.
As soon as she stepped out of the palanquin, she felt a cold chill. She looked around and saw nothing but darkness and silence. The chirping of insects and birds had disappeared without a trace. The Imperial Guards who carried the palanquin and pang chongdeng who followed closely behind had all disappeared without leaving any traces. Only their palanquin was left alone in the wilderness.
Ruan xilu suddenly felt her hair stand on end. There was no movement outside, but the sedan bearer of the inner palace guards and pang chongdeng, the top master of the time-honored brand, had all mysteriously disappeared!
"What do we do now, Your Highness?" Xiao dan asked, flustered.
Hearing this, ruan xilu seemed to wake up from a dream, but she was also a little out of her wits. She forced herself to calm down and said, " &Quot; can you shout? louder, see if they're nearby. &Quot;
Little Dan was also extremely afraid at this moment, but she didn't dare to disobey the Empress's orders. Thus, she shouted with a trembling voice,"A huge partner? Guard Zhang? Imperial Guard li? Guard sun? Imperial Guard Zhao?"
"Where are you guys?"
"The lady ... The lady ... The lady ... Has summoned you all to come here and listen to my orders!"
"Taking the wrong path is just a small matter, really ..."
"His Majesty personally instructed you to look after the Empress ..."
Under the night sky, it was quiet, and there was no response. Only the cold wind blew gently, making the master and servant feel cold all over.
Xiao Dan's breathing was rapid and her eyes were filled with fear. Ruan xilu's face was also slightly pale. Where were her guards and eunuchs?
At this moment, a series of light footsteps could be heard from not far away.
Ruan xilu and Xiao dan immediately turned around and saw a tall and burly figure in the darkness.
The two of them were overjoyed, thinking that the Imperial Guards had returned. Just as they were about to walk over, they saw a headless corpse that was highly rotted and dripping with pus walk out of the night. It seemed to have noticed them, and it suddenly sped up and pounced on them.
"Ah!"
Ruan xilu and Xiao dan screamed in fear. The two of them couldn't care less about the Royal dignity and ran away.
The Imperial consort was running too fast and her light blue crepe outer robe was hanging on a cluster of branches on the side of the road. She did not dare to look back at all. When she noticed that her dress was being tugged, she tried hard but failed. Her face suddenly turned pale and she quickly took off her outer robe and continued to run.
Without her outer shirt, she was only wearing a Charax seed inside. Her pink and white arms, exquisite collarbones, and swan-like shoulders and neck were all exposed. The night wind blew, and the hem of her dress fluttered. The bright red corner of the dress was constantly kicked up by her smooth and slender legs, surging like a red tide. Her ankles, which seemed to be carved from fine jade, were still shining in the night.
Ruan xilu couldn't care less about her naked body. Her graceful figure was fully revealed as she ran for her life in the dark.
Soon, she and Dan ran out of energy.
Just as he was in despair, in the thick darkness in front of him, there was a tiny flame that illuminated a small temple.
"Your ladyship, there's a temple up ahead!" Xiaodan was immediately overjoyed.
Ruan xilu was also overjoyed and quickly said, " "Hurry up! Hurry up and go in!"
Seeing the chance of survival, the two people's originally exhausted bodies immediately regained their strength. They immediately ran towards the temple without caring about anything.
They crossed the threshold as if they were flying and rushed into the temple. Before they could catch their breath, they saw the door behind them move on its own and close with a " bang "!
The master and servant were shocked, but when they saw that the headless corpse did not follow them in, they were secretly relieved.
Ruan xilu only realized that she was not wearing her outer clothes at this moment. She raised her hand and pressed it on her violently heaving chest, gasping for breath. She looked around and saw a wall of ghosts and gods suppressing ghosts and monsters in front of her. There seemed to be a courtyard behind it.
The two of them were already exhausted and did not have the heart to look carefully. They quickly walked behind the reflective wall and saw that the courtyard was filled with incense in the four-legged cauldron. The smoke-filled incense filled the courtyard, making the master and servant feel safe.
However, the door and windows of the tile-roofed house that was supposed to be used to worship the statue were tightly shut, and it was quiet as if no one was there.
Ruan xilu and Xiao dan couldn't care about anything else. They immediately clasped their hands together and bowed to the main room. Then, they walked to the steps in front of the main room and sat down to rest.
&Quot; I ... I don't know which great immortal's Palace this is ... &Quot; ruan xilu panted. &Quot; however, since it's being worshipped, I think ... I think ordinary sneaky people can't enter ... &Quot;
"That's right ..." Dan nodded quickly,"I saw it on the reflective wall just now. No one, no one can come in ... Definitely not ..."
After panting a few times, ruan xilu's gaze fell on the four-legged cauldron not far away. &Quot; "After a while, let's go burn some incense and ask for the blessing of the great immortal here ..."
&Quot; the Empress is a lucky person ... &Quot; Little Dan said hurriedly, " otherwise, how could we have come across this temple so coincidentally? "
"It seems that this great immortal also intends to protect the Empress ..."
"Great immortal, please be merciful. I'll definitely help you construct a golden body later ..." Ruan xilu said.
At this point, she frowned slightly and said, " Little Dan, don't keep your hand on my waist. &Quot;
Little Dan was startled and subconsciously said, " "Niangniang, no, this servant's hands are all here."
As she spoke, she immediately raised her hands for the Imperial consort to see.
Ruan xilu's expression instantly froze. She slowly lowered her head and looked at her waist, only to see a pale and slender palm firmly holding her waist. It was like a ten-thousand-year-old black ice, and through the soft material of her clothes, it constantly gave off a cold and eerie feeling.
Little Dan followed her gaze and saw the hand.
The master and servant's eyes followed the palm up, but they saw that there was nothing behind the palm.
In the next moment, two more palms landed on ruan xilu and Xiao Dan's shoulders.
&Quot;
Accompanied by a burst of extremely terrified screams, the master and servant pair directly fainted ...
