"Scared!" The neat glances startled him, and he was about to explain that he was here on orders.
The guard had turned around and slowly pushed open the ancient door in front of him.
"Buzz..."
I saw snowflakes shaking off the door, and the light from the stove behind the door shone through the crack on the faces of the guards.
Ding Xiaoyi didn't know if it was his own illusion, but Ding Xiaoyi felt that the eyes of these guards looking at him were hollow, but they did not show any alertness or vigilance. Instead, he felt that these guards seemed to be very familiar with him.
However, when he looked at it again, the guards all turned their gazes and looked straight ahead, as if they had once again transformed into statues guarding the Forbidden Palace.
"strangeness……"
He muttered in his heart and walked in facing the palace door. After walking a few steps, he suddenly looked back and saw that the guard was always standing in front of the door, and there was no change at all.
But what Ding Xiaoyi didn't notice was that when he turned around and continued walking forward, the eyes of these guards were all quietly commenting on his back.
Those cheeks that had not shown any expression for thousands of years, there was a tacit knowing smile between them, and the eyes looking at this little guy were particularly gentle.
"How long will it last for such a big palace??"
Looking at the majestic palaces in front of us, one after another, like rolling mountains, the complex palace buildings look majestic and majestic from a distance.
But when you really walk in, you will see the unreachable palace walls and the criss-cross layout, which makes people feel dizzy, as if they are walking into a maze.
There isn't even a person to guide the way, and you can't fly here. If you want to reach the emperor's palace, you don't know how long it will take.
Just when he was anxious, the sound of uniform footsteps came not far away. When he looked back, he saw a group of guards walking slowly with spears in hand.
Under the cold armor, the faces of these guards could not be seen clearly, but their uniform steps gave people a strong sense of oppression.
Ding Xiaoyi involuntarily got out of the way and stood aside, watching these cold guards walking by. He couldn't help but ask: "Um...the big brothers..."
"Bang!" As soon as he finished speaking, the guard in front of him stood still on the spot.
Ding Xiaoyi's heart tightened when he saw all these guards looking at him.
Even though he had reached the dragon level, he still felt a little frightened in his heart when he faced the empty eyes of these guards.
It's just that the words have been spoken, and they can't be taken back, so they bite the bullet and say: "Brothers, no, uncles... How do you get to the emperor's palace?"
The group of guards did not answer, but stared at Ding Xiaoyi for a long time, then slowly raised the spears in their hands and pointed towards the avenue to the side.
Ding Xiaoyi breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted. After thanking him repeatedly, he turned around and left without looking back.
The strong sense of peeping behind him made him look back, only to find that the eyes of these guards were always staring at him. Seeing this, his scalp went numb and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
It wasn't until he turned around and jumped around the corner that his figure completely disappeared from the eyes of these guards. The group of guards looked at each other. Although there was no sound, it was clear that the smiles on their faces were particularly bright.
One of the guards also gestured to Ding Xiaoyi's height.
He started to make gestures on his legs, and then made a few gestures on his shoulders.
When the other guards saw this, they couldn't help laughing happily, but although they laughed, they didn't make a single sound.
Therefore, although Ding Xiaoyi had just walked not far, he did not notice anything wrong at all.
I just felt that these guards were cold and very uncomfortable.
But it’s not surprising when you think about it. After all, they are the Imperial Guards of the Great Emperor, so naturally they cannot be measured by common sense.
After walking along the path and passing through several lifeless halls, Ding Xiaoyi finally found a way up the mountain.
The blue-gray bricks were spotless, not even a single snowflake.
But the air around him was so cold that he couldn't bear it.
But fortunately, compared to the strong wind around Kunlun Peak, he can still bear the cold.
I can bear it if I can, but the feeling of the biting cold wind blowing on my face is not pleasant at all.
"What a pity! If I had known better, I should have kept that pretty boy's happy clothes."
Ding Xiaoyi took out several sets of clothes and put them on, still shivering from the cold.
He glanced at the time and saw that he had just walked a short distance and had already wasted almost two hours. He now seriously doubted that the emperor did this on purpose.
"Huh, luckily I had a premonition a long time ago. Now I just hope that Datou can safely deliver the Nine-turn Wuji Pill to the old man."
The reason why he left this matter to Datou so confidently and boldly was not without reason.
If placed in a foreign land, he would never have the courage.
But if we were in Yincao, I believe that few people would dare to take action against Datou. After the last time he failed in the city, I believe that Datou's reputation has been at its peak now, and there are few people in the huge Netherworld who don't know about it.
What's more, Datou still has the token given to him by the Five Fortune Pig King. Even if he doesn't give Datou face, the empress's beloved pet should always give him some face.
Furthermore, who would have thought that he would hand over something as important as the Nine Turns Wuji Pill to Da Tou.
So as long as there are no accidents on the road, Ding Xiaoyi thinks it shouldn't be too big. This is also a kind of training for the big head.
As he walked, the sky in front of him began to darken and the light became worse and worse. It was extremely difficult for him to walk.
But at this moment, he could only complain and complain in his heart. He looked at the top of the Dragon Head in the distance and couldn't help complaining in his heart:
"You can't live in the comfortable palace below, but you go to live up there. How can you see from a high position? It's as if you can really see it."
Just when he was full of complaints and complaints, a group of guards walked down the stone steps in front of him, with heavy and powerful steps, as if they didn't care about the biting temperature here.
Even though their bodies were covered with ice and snow, the pace of these guards never slowed down.
Seeing this, Ding Xiaoyi quickly made way for them.
Just as these guards were walking by, he suddenly felt warm and noticed that a set of thick clothes had appeared on his body.
Take a closer look, isn’t it the same pretty boy’s happy clothes from back then?
"Hey...clothes..."
He immediately looked at the row of guards, but their pace was so fast that before he could finish his words, the guards' figures had disappeared at the end of the stone steps.
“Did the Emperor ask them to give it to me??”
Full of doubts, Ding Xiaoyi didn't think too much and put on a set of clothes. He immediately felt warm all over his body.
It is indeed the sacred sheep raised by Du Ziren. Every wool is accompanied by a unique divinity.
Ding Xiaoyi became greedy when he thought of Du Ziren's sheep.
"It would be great if we let Pangpang steal a sheep again."
After thinking about it, a ray of light suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. Ding Xiaoyi's eyes lit up. After walking over, he saw an inconspicuous small door with a gap open.
It is from this that the lights flicker.
He originally didn't intend to stay, but when his nose moved, a unique fragrance overflowed from the door, which was the smell of wine.
It was a cold day, and the sudden aroma of wine inevitably aroused the wine bug in my stomach.
He thought that he would definitely not be able to keep up anyway, so he might as well go in and have a drink of wine to warm himself up.
As for the Great Emperor... humph, just wait, it won't be short of effort.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiaoyi opened the door and poked his head out. He saw that the room was not big, more like a warehouse.
An oil lamp was placed on the table in front of him.
Under the illumination of the oil lamp, I saw an exquisite food box placed on the table.
There is also a note underneath [Two liang of hot wine, come quickly after drinking.]
Well, looking at Long Feifengwu’s handwriting, it was obvious that this was prepared for me.
It seems that the emperor is not in a hurry at all, and has even prepared wine and food for himself, so why should he be so polite?
Opening the food box, there was a stack of refreshing side dishes and a pot of warm wine.
Although it is simple, what more luxury can there be if you can drink a pot of warm wine in such cold wind and snow?
After taking a sip, you will feel the aroma of wine overflowing.
When I took a sip, it was very sweet and soft. It was completely different from the drinks I had drunk before. It also tasted a little bit like peas.
He was not in a hurry, drank two drinks, looked at the scene of heavy snow outside the door, and wondered in his heart what the emperor was going to do.
"What's this??"
When I was thinking selfishly, I always felt something under my butt, pushing against me. When I took it out, I found it was a puppet with a long nose.
"Toy??"
Seeing that there was nothing unique about the puppet, it was just an ordinary toy. He couldn't help but be a little confused. This was the Forbidden Palace of the Emperor. How could there be such a thing?
After looking through other items around, I found that in addition to rag dolls, there were also small wooden horses, tin frogs, paper pistols, glass beads, etc.
Various toys are placed in this humble room.
He couldn't help but secretly thought: "Is this the dollhouse that the ghost princess had when she was a child??"
But he quickly rejected this idea because he saw a lot of clothes. Although these clothes were very old, they were definitely the styles that boys would wear.
The Emperor would never let Bai Tang wear these clothes, would he?
Besides...why does it look so familiar??
Ding Xiaoyi looked at it and suddenly felt that these clothes looked familiar, but when he thought about them carefully, he had no memory of these clothes.
"Strange, why does it look so familiar..."
Ding Xiaoyi touched his clothes with his fingers and found something in the trouser pocket of his clothes. When he took it out and took a look, he was instantly frozen in place.
In the photo, a little boy with a runny nose sat on the shoulders of two guards, holding a lollipop in his hand, and took a group photo with the guards with a silly smile on his face.
And the little boy among them is none other than himself when he was a child.
