    Chapter 188 The cold white ghost confuses the prince with his warm words 2

    Xie Lian shouted on the spot. Feng Xin was startled by him and said: “What’s wrong?! What’s wrong!”

    Xie Lian pointed at the mirror with a pale face and said: “Him! I…I, I…”

    Feng Xin followed his hand and looked in the mirror. After a while, he turned his head in confusion and said, “…What’s wrong with you?”

    Xie Lian was so frightened that he held on to him tightly. It was difficult for him to say a few more words: “Me! Me! My face! Didn’t you see it? It’s on my face?!”

    Feng Xin stared at his face and sighed.Xie Lian was still wondering why he didn’t respond, but Ting Feng said: “Your Highness, did you just realize that there was an injury on your face?”

    Gratitude is like falling into an ice cave.

    Why?How could this happen?Why did Feng Xin say that?

    Could it be that Feng Xin couldn’t see the mask on his face in the mirror at this moment?!

    Xie Lian blurted out: “Can’t you see? There is something on my face!”

    Feng Xin wondered: “What is it? What does it refer to specifically? I didn’t see it?”

    Thanks for looking at the mirror again: “Impossible! I…”

    However, when he looked again, the mask on his face in the mirror disappeared, and his frightened face was still reflected.

    His face was covered with black and blue scars, and he looked lost and embarrassed, like a young laborer who had been beaten up by a rich man.Xie Lian couldn’t help but froze, and tried to touch the edge of his cheek, thinking: “…is this me?”

    At this time, I only heard Feng Chuan: “Your Highness, are you… too tired? Or are you angry with that brat? Listen to me, don’t go out recently, you’d better rest more.”

    Xie Lian finally came back to his senses, and when he saw Feng Xin carrying the bow and carrying the stool to go out, he hurriedly said: “No! I…”

    Feng Xin pushed the door open and turned back: “What else?”

    The words came to my lips, but I swallowed them alive.Because a strange thought suddenly appeared in his mind:

    Life is already very difficult now. If Fengxin is told that Bai Wuxiang may come back to haunt them, what will Fengxin do?

    Feng Xin’s shadow on Bai Wuxiang is not light either. What will he do?Will you have the intention to quit and leave like Mu Qing did?

    While he was thinking wildly, Feng Xin had already gone out.Xie Lian was awakened by the sound of the door closing, so he had to retreat to the bed, put on the quilt, and planned to sleep again.

    Suddenly, he smelled a strange smell.

    Xie Lian got up. At first he thought it was the queen cooking again or a mouse or something dead in the corner. He got up and looked around, but finally discovered that the source of the strange smell was actually him.

    Xie Lian then remembered that he hadn’t changed clothes or washed up for dozens of days, so of course there would be a smell.

    Xie Lian held his breath, feeling a surge of disgust towards himself in his heart.Thinking that his parents and Feng Xin must have noticed it, but didn’t tell him, he felt ashamed again. He secretly opened the door and took a look. No one was outside, so he found new clothes and planned to boil water for a bath.

    After a lot of tossing, I finally soaked in the tub.He sank his whole body into the water, held it until he was suffocated, and almost fainted before he emerged and washed his face several times.

    After brushing his whole body, Xie Lian reached out to get his clothes, shook them off absentmindedly and was about to put them on when he suddenly noticed something was wrong.

    This is not his clothes at all, but Bai Wuxiang’s pale long-sleeved mourning clothes!!!

    Xie Lian felt that the hot water he was soaking in instantly turned into a pot of ice. He was horrified and said in a voiceless voice: “Who! Who did this?!”

    Who secretly changed his clothes when he wasn’t paying attention?!

    He jumped out dripping wet and knocked over the tub. There was a loud noise and the whole room was filled with water. The king and queen in the next room were frightened.The queen helped the king come in and took a look. Xie Lian fell to the ground naked, with water all over the floor. She was so frightened that she rushed up to hug him and said: “Your Majesty, what’s wrong with you!”

    Xie Lian, with her hair wet and disheveled, raised her face, hugged her with her backhand and said: “Mom, there is a ghost, there is a ghost, there is a ghost pestering me! He has been following me!”

    He looked like he was crazy. The queen couldn’t bear it anymore, and she cried in distress while holding her son.The king also looked at Xie Lian in a daze. The man in his forties now seemed to be in his sixties.The cold air of winter made Xie Lian tremble, and he pointed: “Clothes. Look at those clothes!…”

    However, when he looked at the clothes again, where was the white mourning clothes?Isn’t it still his white robe?

    Xie Lian suddenly felt angry, punched the barrel, and roared: “What do you want? Are you playing with me?!”

    The queen held back her tears, hugged him and said, “Your Majesty, don’t be angry, please put on your clothes first, put them on, don’t catch a cold…”

    On this day, Feng Xin came back very late, and his face looked more tired than before.

    Xie Lian had been waiting for him for a long time and couldn’t wait to say: “Feng Xin, I have something very important to tell you.”

    Although Bai Wuxiang was too weird and powerful, even if he told Feng Xin, warning him in advance would be useless, but after thinking about it, he still thought that this matter should not be hidden from Feng Xin, so he decided to tell him the truth.Unexpectedly, Feng Xin did not immediately ask him what it was about, but said: “It just so happens that I also have something to tell you.”

    Xie Lian thought to himself that the matter of Bai Wuxiang was more important, and it was better to leave the important things later. He sat down at the table and asked: “You tell me first, what is it?”

    Feng Xin hesitated for a moment and said, “Your Highness, you should speak first.”

    Xie Lian had no intention of refusing, and whispered: “Feng Xin, you must be careful, Bai Wuxiang is back.”

    “…”

    Feng Xin’s expression suddenly changed: “Bai Wuxiang is back? Why do you say that? Have you seen it?”

    Thanks for the pity: “Yes! I saw it.”

    Feng Xin’s face turned pale and said: “But… it’s not right. Why did you see it? Why did you see it and you were still safe???”

    Xie Lian buried his face in his hands and said: “…I don’t know either! But not only did he not kill me, but he also…”

    She even hugged him and touched his head like a loving elder, and told him, “Come to me.”

    After listening to him talk about the strange encounters of the past few days, the shock on Fengxin’s face gradually faded away and was replaced by confusion, saying: “What on earth does he want to do?”

    Xie Lian said: “Anyway, he must have bad intentions, and he seems to have been following me. In short… you should be careful! Help me remind my father, queen, and queen to be careful, but don’t scare them.”

    Feng Chuang: “Okay. I won’t go out these days. The things that boy sent… should last for a while.”

    It’s really embarrassing to say.When Mu Qing left, he still left behind all the things he brought.Although Xie Lian was out of control at the time and threw things at him saying that he didn’t need his things or help, when he calmed down, he still picked up everything in despair.Xie Lian sighed, nodded, and said: “By the way, what are you going to tell me?”

    When it came to this, Fengxin hesitated again.After a pause, he opened his mouth and suddenly swallowed. He scratched his hair and said, “Actually… Your Highness, do you still have any money there? Or something that can be pawned?”

    Xie Lian didn’t expect that he would ask this question, which was considered a fool at this time. He was stunned and said: “Ah? Why do you ask this?”

    Feng Xin gritted his teeth and said: “…It’s nothing…but if you have some, can you… lend me some first?”

    Xie Lian smiled bitterly and said: “…Do you think there will be more?”

    Feng Xin also sighed and said, “I think so.”

    Xie Lian thought for a while and said: “But didn’t I give you a gold belt before?”

    Feng Xin murmured: “That’s not enough, far from enough…”

    Xie Lian was taken aback and said: “Feng Xin? What did you do? How come a golden belt is not enough? Did you hit someone outside and want to pay for it? Tell me?”

    Feng Xin came back to his senses and said hurriedly: “No! Don’t worry, I’ll just ask!”

    After repeated questioning, Feng Xin assured that everything was fine. Xie Lian said uneasily: “If anything happens, you must tell me and we can find a solution together.”

    Feng Chuang: “Don’t worry about me, I can’t think of a solution even if you think about it. Your Highness, you’d better solve your side of the matter first!”

    When he mentioned this, Xie Lian’s heart sank again.

    As he expected, that thing would haunt him for the next few days.

    Xie Lian can always see that sad and happy face in many unexpected places, or a vague white figure.Sometimes it’s at the bedside late at night, sometimes it’s the reflection in the water, sometimes it’s at the suddenly opened door, sometimes even right behind Feng Xin.

    Bai Wuxiang seemed to take pleasure in intimidating him, and deliberately only let him see it.Whenever Xie Lian couldn’t bear it and shouted and pointed at him, as soon as the others rushed over or turned around, he disappeared.In such a day, Xie Lian was in shock, and he wanted to grab this thing and tear it into pieces, but he couldn’t even step on the other party’s shadow. It was inevitable that he would be upside down day and night, and he would be exhausted both physically and mentally.

    One day, he woke up in the middle of the night and felt uncontrollable thirst. He remembered that he had not drank water well all day. He got up and was about to go out to drink some water, but he heard faint voices and weak candlelight coming from outside.Xie Lian was startled and immediately hid behind the door, his heart pounding: “Who is it? If it is the father, the queen, the queen and Feng Xin, why are they so sneaky?”

    Who would have known that this sneaky person was really his father, the Queen, his mother, and Feng Xin.Feng Xin’s voice was extremely low: “Has your Highness rested?”

    The queen also whispered: “Go to bed.”

    The king said: “I finally fell asleep. Don’t call him too early tomorrow to let him sleep a little longer.”

    This sentence made Xie Lian feel sour in his heart, and then he heard the queen say: “Alas… if this continues, when will the emperor get better?”

    Xie Lian was just thinking that there was something wrong with his words. At this time, Feng Xin whispered: “He has been too tired recently to act like this. Too many things have happened. Please keep an eye on your majesties. If there is anything wrong with your highnesses, please tell me immediately. But don’t let him notice it, and don’t say anything that irritates him…”

    Xie Lian hid behind the door and listened, his mind went blank, and bursts of blood rushed upward.

    What’s the meaning?What does this mean?

    He roared in his heart: “I’m not crazy! I didn’t lie! What I said is true!”

    Xie Lian raised his hand and banged open the door. The three people in the room were all shocked. Feng Xin stood up: “Your Highness? Why didn’t you sleep?!”

    Xie Lian shouted: “You don’t believe me?”

    Feng Xin was startled and said: “Of course I believe you! You…” Xie Lian interrupted him: “Then what do you mean by those words just now? Do you mean that what I saw are all hallucinations and my own delusions?”

    The king and queen wanted to interrupt, but Xie Lian immediately said: “Stop talking, you don’t understand!”

    Feng Chuang: “No! I believe your Highness, but it’s true that you’ve been too tired recently!”

    Xie Lian looked at him without saying a word. There was something in his heart, but he was feeling the cold wind.

    He believed that, on the whole, Feng Xin still believed in him.At least eight points.

    Don’t believe it entirely.After all, Xie Lian has been really sick these days.Any outsider would definitely judge him as a lunatic. What qualifications do he have to be completely trusted?

    But it shouldn’t be like this. In the past, Feng Xin would have believed in him without any reservation!Even if there is only two points of doubt, it is unbearable!

    Xie Lian’s heart is full of anger and resentment, and he doesn’t know who he is targeting, towards Bai Wuxiang, towards Feng Xin, towards everyone, and towards himself.Without saying a word, he turned around and went out. Feng Xin caught up with him and said, “Your Highness, where are you going?”

    Xie Lian forced himself to calm down and said: “Don’t worry about it, don’t follow me, go back.”

    Feng Chuang: “No, but where are you going? I’ll go with you.”

    Xie Lian made up his mind and suddenly ran wildly. Feng Xin’s footsteps were not as fast as his, and he was far away after a while. He could only shout from behind. The king and the queen also came out to call him together, but Xie Lian turned a deaf ear and ran faster and faster.

    He must take the initiative!

    If Bai Wuxiang wanted to kill Xie Lian, or Feng Xin, or his parents, none of them would be easy, but he refused to kill him, but wanted to play with him like a toy, and then treat him as a joke!

    Xie Lian ran and shouted into the night: “Get out!!! You monster in the gutter!!! Get out!!!”

    Bai Wuxiang came for him alone, so he believed that Bai Wuxiang would definitely follow him out.However, after he cursed heaven and earth with a poor vocabulary, there was not a few sneers coming from unexpected dark corners as usual, or a figure leisurely appeared behind him and suddenly put a hand on his head.After running wildly for several miles, Xie Lian finally exhausted all his energy. He bent down deeply, holding his knees with his hands, panting, and a smell of rust filled his chest and throat.

    After a long while, he stood up suddenly, continued to walk forward, and whispered: “…you want to spend time with me, right? Okay, slowly spend time!”

    He had been hiking for an unknown amount of time alone in the barren mountains, deep mountains and old forests, and the fog gradually became thicker.

    The dark old trees on all sides bared their teeth and claws, all leaning forward, extremely oppressive, as if inviting him to step into a forbidden land from which he could not return.Xie Lian knew that there was something bad ahead, but there was no way to avoid it.Moreover, it must be settled, and it will come sooner or later, so I continued to move forward with a calm face.As I walked, a row of sparkling things appeared faintly in the white mist ahead, like a luminous wall.

    Xie Lian had never seen such a thing before. He frowned slightly and stopped.And that “wall” was actually slowly approaching him!

    Thanks to his vigilance, he broke off a branch and held it in his hand to prepare for the attack.When the “wall” was less than two feet in front of him, he was shocked to realize that it was not a wall, but countless ghostly fires.Because there are so many, from a distance, it looks like a wall of fire or a big net.

    Although those will-o’-the-wisps were strange, they had no killing intent. They just floated silently in front of Xie Lian, preventing him from moving forward.Xie Lian tried to go around them, but the will-o’-the-wisps immediately changed direction and stopped in front of Xie Lian.At the same time, he heard many voices saying:

    “Don’t go there.”

    “Don’t go there.”

    “There’s something bad ahead.”

    “Go back, don’t keep walking!”

    These sounds are dull and dense, like a tide, and can send chills down one’s back.Xie Lian was surrounded by them and noticed that among these will-o’-the-wisps, there was a flame that was particularly bright and silent.

    Although things like will-o’-the-wisps have no eyes at all, when he looked at the will-o’-the-wisp, he seemed to feel a scorching gaze coming towards him.

    It seems that this ghost is the strongest among these will-o’-wisps.The other will-o’-the-wisps are just following it.
