Bai Yinglin's pupils dilated. All this happened so unexpectedly.

She turned around, grabbed Zhao Ya, and ran up to the Wanti Building.

Concubine Jia followed closely behind.

Two hems of different colors were reflected in the pupils of his eyes, one pink following behind the light green. As it was dark at this time, he could not see clearly, and only a hint of color could be seen.

Concubine Jia was instantly annoyed and angry.

"Go back first and don't show up in front of others these days."

"Yes." The palace maid opposite took a look at the situation outside, responded, and quickly retreated.

Concubine Jia's dark blue robe was inlaid with many gems as embellishments.

Shining brightly in the moonlight.

She chased after Bai Yinglin and the other person with a light figure.

There was no trace of panic on his face, and even his steps were so quick that he didn't lose his composure at all.

"Ya'er, hurry up, don't let anyone see us."

"Yinglin, did I do something wrong?"

"It's okay. Tell me quickly, is there any hiding place around here?"

"Follow me. This is the largest kitchen in the entire palace. Every palace has a dedicated small kitchen, and this one is used to prepare meals for my father. I've been favored since I was a child, so my meals also come from here."

Zhao Ya ran in front of Bai Yinglin to lead the way and ran towards the left side of Wanti Building.

Such a large place looks like the simplest symmetrical building from the outside, with two floors. The middle floor is the kitchen, and the upper floor is the storage. The steps are steep and high, so it is called Wan Ti Lou.

On the right side of the staircase is the main door of the kitchen, while on the left side is the place where leftover rice and vegetables must be taken out of the bucket. Many people are disgusted by the filth and will not go near it.

Those who come in and out of there are the lowest slaves in the biological pyramid of the entire palace.

"Yinglin, nothing will happen if you follow me. They will never come here no matter what. This is the entrance and exit that even slaves despise."

Bai Yinglin was obviously very confident in Zhao Ya.

Although this girl is usually confused, she is extremely reliable when something really happens.

The two of them lowered their bodies to the wall and without thinking, they turned into an alley. Only a few torches burning alone on the high wall gave them some faint light.

At this time, they could no longer see the figure of Concubine Jia chasing after them. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, but they did not let down their guard.

Under the warm orange firelight, more than a dozen doors appeared dimly.

Apart from the entrance the two had just entered, only the upper and middle sections of the outer side had a protective wall made of wooden fences.

Perhaps this side is located away from the moonlight.

The entire alley was dark and gloomy, with cold wind howling from time to time.

It makes people shiver.

Even Zhao Ya, who was usually bold and reckless, felt a chill in her heart at this moment.

"Yinglin, it's so cold here, it feels like there's a ghost wind blowing."

"What are you thinking? There's no such thing as ghosts. Don't be afraid. Take me in quickly. It's not safe yet."

Bai Yinglin is an excellent student who has been influenced by modern culture. Not only is he a versatile person, but his courage is also unmatched. What is so scary about such a ghost place?

When I first graduated from college, it was very difficult to find a job, so I did a lot of odd jobs, including being a body carrier in a funeral home. But that wasn't the scariest thing.

This is what you want to scare me, but it's really far from it.

"Okay." Zhao Ya pulled Bai Yinglin towards the end of the alley.

"This door is the only way in. All the doors here are very heavy. Unless someone uses the door handle from the inside, it is impossible to open it directly with external force."

Zhao Ya took Bai Yinglin's hand and placed them on the door wall.

Two pairs of delicate hands, one large and one small, pressed against the door.

Bai Yinglin looked at Zhao Ya with some confusion.

Doesn’t it mean that it can’t be opened? Why are you still pushing it like this?

"Ya'er, is this okay?"

Although his tone was calm, it was full of doubt.

"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet. I've been wandering around since I was a kid. Although I only come here during the day, I've figured out some ways to get in. The doors here really can't be opened, but this door is the breakthrough point. It's the lightest and easiest door to push open. I almost pushed it open once before. Now there are two of us, so don't worry. I think this time... it will definitely work."

Bai Yinglin frowned and stared blankly at Zhao Ya. Although her hand was close to the door, she was a little distracted and did not exert any force.

Zhao Ya's cheeks began to turn red, and the blush spread from her neck to her forehead. Her lovely face looked a little swollen. She pursed her red lips, and her cheeks swelled up as if two tiger walnuts were stuffed in them.

Veins popped out on her forehead and arms.

When she tried her best, she realized that it was only her own strength.

He paused, turned his head to look at Bai Yinglin, turned twice, and their eyes met.

"Yinglin, what are you doing? Why don't you use more force? I told you not to move at all." Zhao Ya looked at Bai Yinglin angrily, without reducing the strength in her hands at all.

Bai Yinglin then realized that she had not made any move and had actually denied her opinion without realizing it.

This thought made Bai Yinglin feel that she was going too far.

Zhao Ya turned her head back and continued to push the door hard.

Bai Yinglin also focused her attention and pressed her hands together to exert force.

It must have taken a lot of effort to open such a heavy door.

Besides, the sounds were getting closer and closer to us, so we had no choice but to do it.

…

"Damn it!" Concubine Jia gritted her teeth and spat out the two words. She looked at the Wanti Building, lifted her left foot up a step, and a thousand thoughts ran through her mind.
