Steward Shi sneered, "Of course he will be locked up in a small dark room to be punished."
"Okay! Hurry up then."
Wen Xi even felt a little impatient.
Butler Shi's sneer froze. His eyes flashed with surprise, as if he didn't expect Wen Xi to not be afraid at all.
Wen Xi urged, "Hurry up, Steward Shi, don't you know that time is money?"
Butler Shi, “…”
"Hmph, don't waste your words. Of course I know I'm going to throw you into the dark room. When you can get out is another matter. Just take advantage of this moment to act arrogant for a while. Later, even if you cry your heart out, no one will let you out."
Steward Shi was feeling irritated, and without the pleasure of torturing people, he raised a whip in anger.
In an instant, the mirrors in the corridor made shattering sounds at the same time.
Everything went dark and the world was spinning!
The next moment, when Wen Xi opened his eyes, he found himself in a garden full of blooming roses, exactly the same as the scene in one of the mirrors.
"Ma Yingbei? Yue Ling? Are you here?"
Wen Xi shouted while strolling around.
Suddenly, a sound was heard from behind the big tree.
She walked over and saw a girl with short hair squatting on the ground, drawing something on the ground with a stone and muttering to herself.
"Hello, who are you?"
Wen Xi leaned over to ask.
The short-haired girl seemed to be deaf to her voice and muttered to herself, "It's eight o'clock, time for breakfast. I have fifteen minutes to finish breakfast and then go to school. Class starts at nine o'clock, and it's lunch time at twelve o'clock. The driver will come to pick me up at four o'clock. I have to be home before five o'clock, otherwise the housekeeper will be angry."
When Wen Xi heard this, he frowned and asked, "Are you the adopted child in the castle? Do you know Luo Xi? She sent me here to rescue my friend."
Hearing the name 'Rosie', the short-haired girl finally reacted.
She raised her head suddenly, a panicked expression on her pale face. She pointed behind the flowers and said, "Quick, get out of here, otherwise you will never be able to get out again. Go!"
"So what are you going to do?"
The short-haired girl held her head and shook her head violently. "It's no use. I can't get out anymore. I've been chosen. I can't escape anymore. I can't escape!"
Seeing that she was mentally unstable, Wen Xi pursed his lips and thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, I'll leave first, but don't worry, I'll be able to get you out soon."
After saying that, Wen Xi hardened his heart, turned around and walked in the direction the girl pointed. There was actually a black door behind the flowers. Wen Xi opened the door, and there was another scene behind the door.
Small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and terraces.
Wen Xi walked over and the door closed with a bang.
Similarly, here, Wen Xi saw another thin boy who was in a bad mental state and kept talking nonsense.
"They've been watching me, watching me! Soon my consciousness, everything about me, will be devoured. Who am I? Who will I be?"
The boy looked like a mentally retarded person, staring blankly at the sky and repeating the same sentence over and over again.
Wen Xi felt extremely heavy-hearted as he passed through several doors one after another.
Finally, after entering a scenic area with a small waterfall, a figure suddenly jumped out and pushed Wen Xi against the door with extremely fast movements.
The tall figure covered her head, a cold air enveloped her, bony hands pinched her neck, and a cold voice drilled into her ears.
"Who are you? Are you their eyes and spies? Or are you the same evil spirit? Are you here to spy on us? Or are you here to choose your host? Tell me now! What I've always lacked is patience. Others may not be able to deal with you, but I'm different. I'm a Xuanling Master. Killing you is a matter of minutes."
"Well, this kind of threat is actually quite unintimidating."
Wen Xi hesitated for a moment and said, looking up at his cold and ruthless narrow eyes, she whispered, "Also, my name is Wen Xi. Coincidentally, I am also a Xuanling Master."
"Wen Xi?"
The opponent's fierceness suddenly dissipated a lot, and the hand that was pinching her neck slowly loosened. He asked suspiciously, "You are Wen Xi? How can you prove it?"
"I am Wen Xi, do I need proof? You look like you know me, so you should be from the Yue family, right? Where is Yue Ling? Where is she? As long as she sees me, it will prove that I am Wen Xi."
Wen Xi blinked her beautiful eyes and spoke calmly.
"It seems that you are really Wen Xi, not much different from the person Ling'er described."
He let go completely and took a few steps back. The young man's handsome and cold face came into view. He was also a rare handsome guy.
"My name is Yue Yan, and I'm Yue Ling's twin brother. We're now trapped together in the mirror world."
"Well, this is also the small dark room where the children adopted by my mother-in-law are imprisoned. It's really a good place to destroy the bodies."
Wen Xi said faintly, "From what you said just now, I obviously know who is behind this. It must be the Granny Ling Hua that Luo Qian mentioned."
Yue Yan stared at her and said, "That's right. We went to the church to look for Granny Linghua, but we were tricked and thrown directly into the mirror world. In the dark places behind this place, there are many ghosts and evil spirits. They are waiting for the moment when human consciousness is at its weakest, so that they can choose to possess or devour us in one go."
"Luckily, it was still daytime when you came in. If it was at night... running into those guys would have been pretty tough!"
Wen Xi raised an eyebrow, "Really? To me, there's no difference between day and night!"
"I know you have some abilities. The elders once boasted about your abilities, but the worlds here are all connected, and there are countless things like that. It's too early for you to speak so."
Yue Yan pursed his lips and reminded her expressionlessly.
“…”
Wen Xi said calmly, "Alright, the most urgent thing is to find everyone out and then find a way out."
"Yue Ling is behind the next door, come with me."
Yue Yan led her to another door. "But the exit here is hard to find. Even if you find it, the gatekeeper spirit at the exit won't let you go easily."
After passing through the door, I saw Yue Ling and Ma Yingbei arguing with each other across the stone table.
"I'm telling you, Wen Xi is my master. Don't argue with me, or I'll have a hard time explaining myself later. Do you understand?"
"I don't understand, you idiot! It's none of my business if you can't explain yourself. I came to Changjing City this time with a mission. Let's compete fairly, understand?"
"No! We have to wait in line on a first-come, first-served basis! If I can't accept it, I'm also the eldest senior brother!"
"Humph, I'm the senior sister, why don't you call me senior sister?"
"Bah! You wish! Anyone who takes advantage of me will be struck by lightning!"
