The situation in the dragon bed did not alarm anyone at the moment. The wind blew the curtains, rustling, and the lights flickered on and off... Queen Liu and the eldest prince Yan Bolong in the outer palace were already asleep. The imperial doctor at the door of the inner room was sitting in a chair, with his head lowered and gently Snoring.
The two maids, Miao Ling and Qiangwei, were also half asleep and half awake. Sudden. Drowsily, Miao Ling opened her eyes.
She felt a cold wind blowing in the room... it was so cold that it went straight into her neck. Miao Ling couldn't help but feel curious.
The windows are not open, how can there be wind? ...So he rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked around the inner room of the palace.
There was nothing unusual... However, when her eyes fell on His Majesty King Yan's dragon bed, she immediately saw the gauze curtain hanging on the bed slowly swaying.
Seeing this, Miao Ling finally understood where the cold wind she noticed was coming from.
It is His Majesty’s dragon bed! But why? There was no air outlet or windows there, so how could there be cold wind blowing the curtains and gauze?
Miao Ling couldn't help but become curious. But even though she was curious, she didn't dare to walk over easily to see what was going on.
Because His Majesty King Yan's face covered with skin and bones... is really terrifying! Although that was His Majesty the most noble King in the Kingdom of Yan, Miao Ling still couldn't accept that terrifying face.
It always feels very weird, hard to look at directly... It would be okay if it was with Qiangwei. Having a companion by your side makes you a little more courageous.
During the day, the two of them gave medicine, soup, and porridge to the virtuous King Yan, but they thought it was nothing.
But now, everyone is asleep. If you walk there alone, you will really feel a little excited...
"Forget it... One more thing is worse than one less thing." Miao Ling thought silently. However. Just the next moment.
Suddenly a gust of cold wind blew out, completely blowing out the flickering lights! The whole room suddenly became dark.
This shocked Miao Ling so much that she couldn't help but shudder, and her sleepiness was completely knocked out of her mind by this cold war.
This moment was really weird. Nowadays, the house is dark and dark, and nothing can be seen.
The darkness in her field of vision made Miao Ling feel a little panicked, so she quickly reached out to Qiangwei next to her, grabbed the skirt of Qiangwei's clothes, pulled it, and called out quietly in a low voice:
"Qiangwei...Qiangwei..." Qiangwei snorted for a while and muttered:
"Don't make any noise..." Then she pulled Miao Ling's hand away and there was no more movement. It seems that this girl is really sleepy... What should I do?
The room had become so dark that someone had to light the lamp again, otherwise the queen or the eldest prince would definitely get angry if they came in and saw it.
Their mission tonight is to take care of His Majesty King Yan, and now no one even cares about extinguishing the lights... That would be outrageous.
"What should I do?..." In the darkness, Miao Ling was troubled for a long time.
"How about... I go over and light it..." There are so many people in the house to keep company, what is there to be afraid of?
After comforting herself in this way, she slowly gathered up her courage. He took out the fire folding piece from his sleeve.
Fumbling around, he walked towards the location of the dragon bed. On both sides of the dragon bed, there is a candle that needs to be lit.
One on each side. As she fumbled around, Miao Ling couldn't help but curse secretly:
"It's really strange...the lamps on both sides were extinguished at the same time! Where did the strange wind come from?" Thinking like this, she quickly approached the lamp on the right side of the dragon bed.
Then open the fire folder and blow gently on the burning head. The sparks rekindled, with traces of red flames emerging.
Miao Ling found the position of the lamp with her hands, then raised the fire stick and lit it. In an instant, light filled the air, covering the graceful figure of the palace maid in light and shadow.
Finally half the room was lit up. After lighting the lamp, Miao Ling turned around. She planned to go around to the other side and light another candle on the left side of the dragon bed.
But. As soon as she turned around, Miao Ling was startled. At this moment, there was actually a figure standing in front of me!
I saw him wearing a nightgown with his hair disheveled... I don't know when he had been standing there... Miao Ling was immediately frightened and turned pale.
She has seen it clearly. The person standing in front of him was actually His Majesty King Yan, who was supposed to be lying motionless on the bed, like a living dead!
The light and shadow of the candle reflected that skeleton-like face, which was indescribably weird! The dry skin on the face now glowed with a copper-like luster.
Miao Ling was scared. Because in that strange face, in the sunken eye sockets, there was a pair of strange eyes flashing scarlet, staring straight at him.
She was so frightened that she was sweating profusely. However, although she was very scared, Miao Ling did not dare to shout loudly.
Although the guy in front of him has become inhuman, ghost or ghost, he is still a high-ranking figure in the entire country of Yan, the King of Yan!
As a palace maid, it would be disrespectful to show that she was frightened by his strange face. Although Miao Ling was trembling with fear and her clothes were soaked in cold sweat.
But she still controlled her emotions and did not yell out. His whole body was trembling, he was quiet, his face was pale, he stood there obediently... he was very flustered.
I was so confused that I didn't know what to do. But Miao Ling's reaction was pretty quick. She immediately realized that when the palace maid saw His Majesty King Yan, she had to bow and greet him.
So he opened his mouth, ready to say hello. However...it's a pity that she had no chance to speak or make any move...because the next moment, the strange humanoid standing in front of her took action without any warning!
With lightning speed, he suddenly stretched out his skull's right claw, grabbed Miao Ling's neck fiercely, and crushed Miao Ling's throat.
It's really unbelievable! Yan Huanren, who had been weak and weak all day, lying on the bed like a living dead, suddenly burst out with such rapid and strong strength!
In an instant, he crushed the throat of a palace maid and broke her neck... Miao Ling died before she even had time to feel the pain!
However, this is not over yet. After this skeleton humanoid killed the palace maid with one move, he didn't stop there.
He held the woman in his hand to his face and sniffed the palace maid's dead body with his nose. While sniffing, a look of intoxication appeared on his face.
Then, he opened his scarlet eyes. Staring at Miao Ling's white and tender neck, a bloodthirsty and greedy light flashed in her eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Yan Huanren opened his mouth, revealing his white teeth. He aimed his teeth at the white and tender neck of the palace maid, and then bit down!
Blood quickly flowed between his teeth and into his mouth. Yan Huanren closed his scarlet eyes in intoxication, enjoying the taste of blood.
Along with the sucking, his throat slowly rolled... only five breaths. The body of the palace maid, which was originally plump and graceful, quickly shriveled up.
In the end, only a skinned skeleton with a head of dark hair was left, which was held in Yan Huanren's hand.
All the flesh and blood in Miao Ling's body were sucked clean. After a long time, Yan Huanren opened his red eyes.
His slightly plump face showed a hint of unfinished expression. Then he threw the palace maid's skeleton in his hand to the ground.
Then he turned around. Greedy and bloodthirsty eyes stared at the other two people. They were the palace maid Qiangwei, and the imperial doctor sitting in the chair at the door... staring at the two people, an excited smile appeared on their faces.
Then, he moved and slowly walked towards them...
