Chapter 457
This secret passage was unexpectedly spacious, Feng Qi looked at the footprints on the ground with the faint light, and after walking for a long time, he found three forks.

It seems that there is more than one secret passage in this palace!

"Hurry up, don't get lost!"

When this faint voice came, Feng Qi grabbed the little girl beside him tightly, "This way!"

The footsteps became more and more clear. At the corner, Feng Qi stopped Yong Ning's steps, "Wait!"

The figures of those people have disappeared in front of them. It seems that they have reached their destination. I don't know what is above this secret passage?

"Princess, from now on, you can't talk." Feng Qi's eyes were serious warning, Yong Ning nodded solemnly, and the two approached the brighter place.

Not far away, a faint light came in, and a gloomy voice sounded.

"I will accept the empress' kindness."

"Yes, the elders don't remember the faults of villains, so enjoy it."

"No—no, where is Your Majesty? Didn't you come to serve His Majesty?!"

"Shut up, this is our honored guest from Yi Kingdom, as long as you take good care of him, His Majesty will reward you generously!"

But then, there was a series of screams.

"What happened above?!" Hearing these words, Yongning's eyes widened in shock. Feng Qi held her breath and approached slowly, took a deep look at the woman beside her, and immediately stretched out her hand to cover it. own mouth.

When the two stood under the light beam, they saw a narrow staircase, and they could reach the top by walking a few steps.Through the gap that is slightly out of the way, one can see the constantly shaking figure.

"Ah - what is this?! You, are you a human or a ghost?"

"Ah - no, go away, go away!"

"Hahaha……"

Screaming, mixed with extremely gloomy laughter, Feng Qi wanted to know who was there no matter what.

He stepped up the stairs step by step, and finally saw everything in the house clearly.

This is a room surrounded by candles, there is a strong smell of blood in the air, suddenly there is a gasp beside him, Feng Qi immediately stretches out his hand to cover Yong Ning's mouth, the two of them watched in disbelief Looking at everything in front of you.

On the window, a thin and strange shadow was hugging a struggling woman tightly, and the gloomy smile came from this person.

There were countless screams around his ears, and the man bent down slowly, judging from the movement of the shadow, he actually bit the neck of the woman in his arms!With a sound of tearing, he tore the tulle, and Feng Qi didn't dare to let Yong Ning watch the next scene.

"Come here—help—monster, monster!"

"Help me—"

The strange thing is that no matter how the women in the room screamed and shouted, no one paid any attention to them.

Feng Qi only felt that the smell of blood in the air was getting heavier and heavier, as if something warm was spraying on the exit where they were, his heart moved, and he immediately picked up Yong Ning, who had already stiffened beside him, and retreated.

"This old guy actually forgot to close the door!" With a bang, the exit of the secret passage was sealed again.

"Fourth Young Master Feng...then, what is that..."

Yongning on the shoulder faltered, she didn't understand what happened to the shadow.She only saw the struggling woman, and she didn't know which cry and cry belonged to her, but she struggled for a while and didn't move.

Could it be that he is dead?Was bitten to death by that person?
Feng Qi knew that the man hadn't come after him, so she immediately put down the woman on her shoulders, "Princess, forget everything you saw just now, you know? After the princess returns home, all this has nothing to do with the princess! Don't be with anyone. Talk about it!"

Yong Ning only felt that his heart was beating faster than before, but it was occupied by full of fear.

When Feng Qi stabilized her emotions, she found that they were already standing at a three-way intersection.

"Here, where is it?"

He immediately looked underground and found that there were footprints in every secret passage, damn it, he was careless and forgot to mark it!
"...Fourth young master, are we lost?"

The little girl next to her asked weakly, Feng Qi's expression was a little stiff, "Princess, don't worry, Feng will definitely protect the princess!"

At this moment, Yongning already regretted why he followed in?The terrifying image in my mind can't get rid of, is that monster raised by Emperor Xiao?Why did he raise a man-eating monster?But that monster can still talk?Is that human?
Feng Qi tried his best to search for the exit with his own memory. He knew that he could go out through every secret path, but he didn't know which palace he would appear in. If people from Yi Kingdom saw him, he and the princess would definitely not be able to escape.

"Fourth Young Master Feng, there is light there!"

Yongning stretched out her hand tremblingly, she didn't want to stay in this secret passage for a moment, for fear that the monster would chase after her if she wasn't paying attention.

There are no steps, so here should be parallel to the ground!Maybe it really is the exit of that rockery.

Feng Qi was overjoyed, and pulled Yong Ning towards the direction of light.

Slowly pushing open the stone door, but Feng Qi's movements froze, unexpectedly...is it a secret room?
"Not an exit?!"

Yong Ning frowned tightly, she seemed to catch a glimpse of something out of the corner of her eye, and immediately grabbed Feng Qi's sleeve and threw herself into his arms, "There is someone! There is someone there!"

What?However, looking in the direction of Yongning's finger, Feng Qi didn't respond at all, he seemed to stay there motionless.

At this moment, Yongning was about to cry, she shook Feng Qi's hand, "Fourth Young Master Feng?"

Slowly raising his head, he saw the man in front of him staring at a certain direction, his expression couldn't tell what it was like.

Could it be...the Fourth Young Master Feng saw something incredible?
Yongning mustered up the courage to turn his head, and saw all kinds of strange things placed in the secret room with dancing candlelight, and the most abrupt thing was a crystal-clear decoration on a classic seat.

It was as thin as a cicada's wing, but the shape, after Yongning saw it clearly, she felt as if her blood had been frozen in an instant.

human face?It's actually a human face? !

Feng Qi finally moved, and slowly leaned towards the face. For some reason, it seemed that there was a force driving him to stretch out his hand.

"Fourth Young Master Feng!"

Yongning suddenly shouted, and he came back to his senses, but his hand was already raised in the air, and he almost touched the human skin.

what!I almost forgot that unfamiliar things should not be touched casually.

"Is this... a human face?" Yong Ning bit his lower lip tightly, feeling more and more weird the more he looked at it.

And this secret room too, what are those strange things used for?Wait, those... seem to be clothes, and jewelry!
"Is this a treasure house?"

Hidden treasure?Feng Qi didn't seem to agree with Yong Ning's idea, the little girl had already stepped aside, looking at the boxes of jewelry and clothes, but Feng Qi stood in front of the human skin for a long time, with a lingering strange feeling in her heart .

Why did this face make him feel as if he had seen it somewhere before?

It doesn't look like a human skin mask either, but looking at the uneven edges, it looks like it was really peeled off from a human face.

"It's strange how phoenixes are embroidered on these clothes."

Phoenix? !Feng Qi turned around in surprise, "Don't move, princess!"

"Ah?" Yongning immediately stopped his movements, Feng Qi chased after her and pulled her aside, looking at the clothes, he could indeed see the phoenix embroidery on them.

Who else in this world can use the pattern of the phoenix?Unexpectedly, this is actually the queen's secret room.

There are stone steps going up on the side, and it must be the Jiaofang Palace.

"Princess, let's get out of here." Since it was Jiaofang Palace, they would be caught if they went out, at least they knew that this was not an exit.

Feng Qi tried his best to keep everything here, he knew that the queen must be a thoughtful person, and he couldn't let her know that they had been here.

Carefully closing the door again, they returned to the people of the secret way.

The amount of information obtained today is enough to make Feng Qi restless all night. This Yi Kingdom palace is much more complicated than he imagined.The man-eating monster, the queen's chamber, and the human skin.Hehe, I don't know what kind of surprises this imperial palace can give me?

"Fourth brother!"

"Third brother?" Feng Qi looked at another fork in surprise, and the man wearing the silver mask appeared anxiously in front of him.

"Hero?" Yong Ning looked at Feng Ling suspiciously, who was slightly taken aback, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

Feng Qi scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, and a faint gaze came over him, and he smiled beggingly, "It's a long story, it's a long story..."

"..."

……

"A man-eating monster? The queen's secret chamber?" In the room, Feng Ling listened to Feng Qi's words in surprise, and then he looked at Yong Ning, who was sitting quietly aside. fragrance.

"... Imperial Physician." Feng Qi averted his eyes with some guilt, he was the one who brought Yongning to such a dangerous place, the Imperial Physician must have been worried for a long time.

The little girl immediately raised her head, and when she met Yun Shu's gaze, she lowered her head again, and kept grabbing the hem of her clothes, like a child who has done something wrong.

"Shu'er, the elders of the Wu family live in this palace."

Yunshu's eyes flashed, elder?That can be difficult to deal with.

"Just now, the fourth brother went to the secret passage and found the elder's room and the queen's secret room."

Yun Shu seemed to think of something, and looked in Feng Qi's direction, did he discover any secrets?
"Third brother, what is the elder of the Wu family? You mean, that man-eating monster?" Feng Qi became more and more unclear about the meaning of Feng Ling's words, but the two people in front of him didn't answer him.

"Third brother, are you doing something dangerous again? What happened? You tell me, so I can help you!"

Feng Ling looked at the other party's angry and worried expression, maybe now, confessing everything will prevent Feng Qi from being involved in more danger.

"Fourth brother, the person you saw is an elder from the Wu family in Lian Guo, who is good at poison, and from what you have seen, it can be confirmed that he is practicing a secret technique of poisoning. The twenty girls and the people before him have already became a victim."
