Footsteps came from behind, stepping on the not-so-thick snow, making a strange "creak" sound.
The sound is not loud, but in an open place like the cold palace, it seems to make people feel cold in the back.
Gu Zitang felt her blood drop to freezing point.
I had heard from the mother concubine Yifei in the past, the cold palace murderer, the cold palace resentful ghost, all flooded into my mind at once.
In addition to being frightened, he quickly carried Gu Nuoer into an abandoned palace next to him.
Gu Nuo'er opened her mouth: "Second brother, we..."
"Shh!" He covered his sister's mouth, hid under the window and hugged Gu Nuoer shivering: "Noer, don't be afraid, the second brother will protect you."
The little guy lowered his long eyelashes and felt Gu Zitang's trembling fingers.
She couldn't help but flutter her eyes.
Second brother is afraid of this, if there is really a ghost, she will protect him!
For a long time, there was no movement outside.
And the abandoned palace is full of dust and dampness.
Gu Zitang stuck his head out of the window and looked out.
Only the cold wind in winter blows slowly through the courtyard, carrying the sparse dead leaves away.
The sound of footsteps just now is just their illusion.
Gu Zitang's heart was beating like a drum, he put Gu Nuoer down: "Good Nuoer, stay here and don't move, brother go out to check."
Speaking, he slapped his waist and went out through the door.
Gu Nuo'er stood on tiptoe and pulled the window with her two little hands, watching Gu Zitang's figure shuttle back and forth in the courtyard.
The little guy couldn't help but sighed: "If someone came at this time, I'm afraid they would be frightened by the big mouse-like posture of the second brother!"
At this moment, there was a slight movement behind her.
Gu Nuoer has always had excellent hearing and is very alert.
Hearing the voice, she noticed that someone was standing behind her!
The little guy took a small nose first.
This person has a medicinal scent…
Is it…
Gu Nuo'er turned around and saw a boy in white walking towards him from the dilapidated inner hall.
His eyes were stern, with an air of exile.
Gu Nuoer happily waved: "Third brother, it really is you!"
It is Gu Nuo'er's third brother, the third prince Gu Ziyao.
He is introverted and calm, he does not like to talk, he only likes to be famous for dealing with medical skills.
The third prince approached Gu Nuoer, squatted down, and wiped the dust on her cheek with the pulp of her finger.
"This second brother is taking you to run and dance in the cold palace. What kind of drama is he singing."
Gu Nuoer tilted her head softly and said, "The money that the second brother and Nuobao buried in the cold palace is gone. The second brother suspects that it was taken by a bad ghost."
The third prince took a deep breath and looked out the window to see the back of the second prince who was still leaning against the wall.
"No wonder I just saw you come in, I was going to keep up, who knows that he runs faster and faster. However, if you are talking about the money under the tree, I took it,
The last time I wanted to buy an expensive medicinal herb, my mother-in-law refused to give it to me, so I borrowed it temporarily, and later earned it back. I forgot to bury it for you. "
Gu Nuo'er smiled sweetly: "As expected, I'll say it, the second brother is too surprised!"
The third prince glanced at the second prince, and suddenly said, "Sister, let's scare him together."
Wait until the second prince confirms that there is no one in or outside the courtyard.
He returned to the dilapidated palace: "Nuobao, it's safe outside, brother will take you away."
Suddenly, Gu Zitang stared at the empty palace with round eyes.
Where's his baby sister? !
