After Tang Ning finished saying this, Gong Yun's shadow suddenly tightened its grip on Tang Ning. Its scarlet eyes could only see Tang Ning's figure. Apart from that, it seemed that it didn't care about anything else in the world.
Tang Ning's breathing paused for a moment.
Gong Yun's shadow moved closer, until its lips were about to kiss Tang Ning's.
A cold wind blew, and a slender hand stood between them.
Qi Yun hugged Tang Ning, and two cat ears appeared on his head. He looked at Tang Ning aggrievedly.
Tang Ning distanced himself from Gong Jun's shadow as if he had just woken up from a dream. This was not entirely to keep things in balance, as he had not forgotten that there was someone behind him.
Tang Ning turned around in panic and saw that as expected, after he accepted the jewels, those who were affected by the death jewels regained consciousness. They were standing in the cold wind with dazed faces watching the interaction between Tang Ning and the two shadows.
If these internal OS can be turned into forum titles, it would probably be -
Surprise! Do you monsters play cat ears when you are in love
We are of the same root, why are we so anxious to fight each other? - Shadow Chapter
Even monsters can get close to me these days, but I only eat new breeds of dog food
Who am I? Where am I? Am I redundant
Tangning was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say. He smiled awkwardly at Lin Yun and the others, "If this is to resolve the impact of the Death Jewel, then this mission should be completed now. I..."
Gong Yun's shadow pulled Tang Ning's hand, as if to lead her into the mausoleum. Tang Ning quickly said to the others, "I have some feelings right now, so I won't be leaving with the main group. Is this okay?"
Bai Wuliang: “”
Why do you give me the illusion that I refuse? Is this a question I can say no to
Looking at Gong Yun's eager gaze, Bai Wuliang quickly put on a flattering smile, "Of course."
After saying this, another cold gaze fell on Bai Wuliang. Bai Wuliang turned his eyes stiffly and met the shadow of Qi Yun beside him.
There is a dull pain under the eye.
Bai Wuliang's smile froze on his face, and cold sweat flowed down his forehead.
Tangning took Qi Yun's shadow's hand, and Qi Yun's shadow immediately shifted his attention, directing Chang's unbearable focused gaze to Tangning.
They saw Tang Ning and two shadows on his left and right disappear into the dark cave.
The last time Tang Ning entered the imperial mausoleum, her eyes were closed. This time, with the company of Gong Yun's shadow, Tang Ning not only opened them, but also turned on the flashlight on her cell phone.
A pale beam of light fell on the boulder wall. A poisonous spider was hanging on a thread in the dusty air. Tang Ning saw the furry poisonous spider and his hand trembled. The beam of light swung violently. The flashlight illuminated the pile of white bones in the corner. A black shadow quickly fled through the bones. Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that the person who had just run past was a huge rat.
He got goosebumps all over, not only because of these little animals, but also because the temperature in the imperial mausoleum was so chilly that it was unbearable. This coldness was related to time and space, and it was a coldness forgotten by the world. Every dark corner seemed to breed countless ghosts and monsters.
Shadows make no sound when they walk, and the imperial mausoleum was so quiet that only the rustling sound of Tang Ning's own footsteps could be heard.
Tang Ning used a light to illuminate the road under his feet. He was afraid that he would step on something he shouldn't. After walking for a distance, Tang Ning saw a bronze jar filled with a strange ointment. On top of it were countless burnt-out eternal lamps. An indescribable loneliness spread along with the eternal lamps.
Tang Ning saw many scattered funerary objects on the ground. These should have been spilled by the tomb robbers. Many precious porcelains were broken into pieces. Tang Ning found a pair of golden cups in the mess. They seemed to be the cups he and Gong Yun used when they drank the wedding wine. He also saw the jade ruyi covered by the porcelain fragments. It was the jade ruyi that Gong Yun lifted his veil.
Scenes from the past flashed before my eyes.
Gong Yun's shadow led him to the coffin bed, on which were placed two coffins. The carvings on the coffins were ingenious. Under the light, the flying dragons seemed to come alive, shimmering with a silk-like luster, gorgeous and noble.
Gong Yun's shadow opened the coffin. Tang Ning first smelled a faint fragrance, which was the aroma emitted by the wood of the coffin. Then he saw a skeleton lying on layers of golden silk bedding. The coffin was filled with valuable burial objects. The part where the face should be was covered with a golden mask, and the mask was carved with many exquisite patterns.
The other coffin was carved with a gorgeous phoenix. Tang Ning suddenly felt a little depressed. Was the person lying there the queen that Gong Jun had married during his lifetime
Gong Yun's shadow walked to the coffin with the phoenix carved on it. Tang Ning walked forward and observed the coffin closely. Tang Ning realized that something was wrong. The coffin was not sealed at all, and the nails had not been nailed on. Under Tang Ning's confused gaze, Gong Yun's shadow opened the coffin lid. There was no queen lying inside as Tang Ning had imagined, nor were there any dazzling array of funerary objects. There was nothing else in the cold coffin except a red wedding dress that Tang Ning had worn and a few scrolls.
What's going on
Tangning asked cautiously, "Can I take a look at these?"
Gong Yun's shadow nodded.
Tang Ning carefully picked up a scroll and unfolded it. He first saw a gorgeous crabapple flower, and then the second and third crabapple flowers continued to bloom all over the scroll. The painting was exquisitely done. If it was unfolded in the sun, it would probably attract dancing butterflies.
In this cluster of crabapples, there is a person in a red wedding dress sleeping, her hand stretched into the flowers, pinching the flower branches between her fingers, but her pale pink fingertips look like a new flower. This is a very useful painting, and the style of painting is very similar to that of the River God, especially the fact that the hero of this painting has a blank face.
Is it a coincidence
Tang Ning was stunned for a moment, then picked up the second one, which also had a blank face.
They really look alike.
Moreover, Shao Mingxuan and Gong Yun are both ancient people. Is it possible that they are from the same era and they both know this faceless person
Tangning couldn't help but ask Gong Yun's shadow, "Do you know someone named Shao Mingxuan?"
The scarlet eyes narrowed dangerously, and Gong Yun's shadow keenly sensed the unusual meaning behind Tangning's words.
Not only did Gong Yun's shadow appear, but Qi Yun's shadow, who had been patiently waiting for a long time, also appeared and stared at Tang Ning.
Tang Ning was like a little lamb surrounded by wolves. He nervously put down the scroll in his hand and stammered, "Actually, I don't know any Shao Mingxuan. I just heard that he doesn't like to paint faces when he paints."
If there was a mirror in front of Tang Ning, he would realize that his fluttering eyelashes and flushed face betrayed his inner self.
The two shadows obviously noticed it as well.
They were just trying to maintain a false peace. Tang Ning's words were like pouring a bucket of water into a hot oil pan. The edge of the black shadow continued to spread and twist. Not willing to hurt Tang Ning, the two hypocritical monsters glared at each other. The jumping black shadows were like two snakes trying to strangle each other!
Tang Ning didn't know how to see the black cats fighting clearly in the dark at night. He just knew that he couldn't see anything.
The endless darkness spread, even blocking out the light from her phone. Tangning tried to make amends, "I'm sorry, are you guys not angry?"
The empty imperial mausoleum only echoed with Tang Ning's voice. Shadows did not make any noise, and even the fighting was silent.
"Can we not fight?" Tangning added, "Husband."
No response to him.
"Boyfriend, husband, I love you." His voice became lower and lower, as if his strength was drained away bit by bit.
The flashlight kept shining all around, priceless burial objects, dirty insects and ants, cold coffins, and huge stone walls that seemed to be imprisoning him. However, Tang Ning still could not see anything. The imperial mausoleum was so large that it would be no problem for the shadows to find a blind spot to fight.
A poisonous scorpion suddenly crawled onto Tang Ning's shoes. Tang Ning was so scared that he stepped back violently, and his cell phone accidentally fell from his hand and rolled into the darkness.
Tang Ning couldn't see anything.
Something invisible was crawling in the dark. Chills filled every corner of the imperial mausoleum. Tang Ning squatted down and tried to touch the phone. He stroked the direction the phone fell. His fingertips touched something furry. It jumped up very fast and suddenly disappeared from Tang Ning's hand. Tang Ning only had time to feel a long tail.
It seemed to be a squeaking mouse.
Tang Ning's whole body was tense, his scalp was numb, and the evil feeling spread to his arms. He frowned and squatted on the bed without moving.
Oh no.
How did it come to this? Everything is a mess.
There was absolutely no way to deal with it, no way to keep the balance, and he couldn't figure out how to keep both shadows open. He couldn't deal with it now, and he wouldn't be able to deal with it in the days to come. He made his life a mess again.
What was worse was himself. He seemed to have another emotional breakdown, feeling the familiar sense of being out of breath. He was already familiar with this situation. He always had a period of high spirits, and then there would be a period of time when he fell into an irremediable low, just like the rising and setting of the sun, the ebb and flow of the tide. When he was in good shape, the sun was bright and the waves were sparkling, and when those joyous and noisy emotions were gone, it was dark and messy. In fact, he had always been like this.
"Can you punish me?" Tangning muttered to herself as she squatted on the bed. "If you tear me in half, the big one will burst open."
Terrible words.
Why would he say such a thing
This hurts yourself and also hurts the one who loves you.
Tang Ning stretched out his hand and pounded his chest again and again according to the method Ji Lianyun taught him. It hurt a lot, but he didn't even have the strength to frown.
“I’m sorry.” “I’m sorry.” “I’m sorry.” “I’m so sorry.”
Tears unconsciously slid down my eyes, like pearls that had broken off the string and fell into a treasure, splashing into even smaller beads.
"I'm sorry." Tangning was exhausted. He hugged his legs and rested his forehead on his knees. The words he spoke were still soft, so soft that they could not be heard clearly: "I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I love you."
"I love you."
"I really love you."
A cold hand reached out to Tang Ning's chin and caught her tears.
Tang Ning should not be able to see anything in the darkness, but he felt the chill. Tang Ning was stunned for a moment. The coldness that penetrated into his bones lingered in the small space where he was. His eyes filled with tears looked straight ahead. He could not see anything. When he blinked, those transparent tears slid down his face.
"It's you who's here, isn't it?" Tang Ning asked in a trembling voice.
A pair of cold hands embraced him, without the wide-sleeved robe, it was just a pretend style.
Is this Qi Yun’s shadow
Tangning reached out his hand to touch the face of this being. He felt a strange hard texture. It was not the outline of the facial features, but rather some kind of metal with intricate carvings.
This is a mask.
As Tang Ning stared in shock, a pair of red eyes belonging to Gong Yun opened behind the mask.
