    Fang Xiaoyuan touched the extinguished candle that accidentally fell on the ground, and handed it to Zhou Yangyang.

    When the candles were lit again, they found themselves standing in the middle of a huge ice room.  There are large and small ice sculptures on display in this ice room, scattered all over the house, very similar to the art exhibition hall that Dad took Fang Xiaoyuan to visit on weekends.

    She stood firm in front of an ice sculpture that was about the same height as herself, and tilted her head to look at the lifelike "exhibit". "Who do you think made these ice sculptures? They are really lifelike."

    Standing beside her, Zhou Yangyang turned his head, "Of course it is realistic, because this is not an ice sculpture, but a frozen fairy."

    Fang Xiaoyuan opened her eyes wide, and screamed and ran back two seconds later. She thought she was escaping from this terrible place, but she accidentally ran in the wrong direction in the dark. Instead of going out, she ran deeper into the dungeon.  Fang Xiaoyuan gradually slowed down her pace only when she saw a dim light in front of her.

    Her breathing was rapid, and her heart was beating wildly.  Thinking that those motionless ice sculptures just now were actually made of living fairies, she trembled uncontrollably.

    Zhou Yangyang walked up to her, put his hands together, took a deep breath and rubbed them quickly, and after a while, he put his warm hands on the back of Fang Xiaoyuan's neck, "Isn't that much better?"

    The coldness on his body eased a lot, but the chill in his heart became heavier.

    "Do you thinkthey will die?" Fang Xiaoyuan asked Zhou Yangyang, "Those fairies frozen in ice sculptures."

    "I don't know." Zhou Yangyang said, "But you told me before that fairies don't die."

    Goblins don't die, so the director invented dumpsters and ice rooms to seal these unruly goblins and pretend they were dead.

    "This principal is indeed a child," Fang Xiaoyuan pouted, "Only children can play tricks like this!" Now she is completely dissatisfied with the principal's actions, and doesn't understand why he would do this.

    "Let's go, it will be troublesome if he freezes Xiaoyan later." Zhou Yangyang urged, and took the lead.

    Soon they entered a brightly lit passage.  The walls on both sides of the passage are embedded with crystal chandeliers, shining brightly, and the floor is covered with flat marble floor tiles, which are smooth and bright enough to illuminate people's shadows.  Not only that, there are even delicate carving patterns on the stone walls on both sides of the passage, which are in stark contrast to the world outside the dungeon.  From Fang Xiaoyuan's point of view, this place doesn't look like a terrifying underground prison, but rather a road leading to the king's palace.

    Suddenly, Zhou Yangyang grabbed her arm and pulled her into the corner.

    Fang Xiaoyuan poked her head out quietly, and saw a gardener standing at the corner at the end of the passage, she couldn't help but gasped.

    "What should I do?" She asked Zhou Yangyang in a low voice.

    "Take out your badge." Zhou Yangyang said while watching the gardener intently, "Didn't you say it can help escape the gardener's capture? Just take this opportunity to try it."

    Fang Xiaoyuan blinked her big eyes, "Then what if it doesn't work?"

    "If it doesn't work, I'll try to lure the gardener away, and you take the opportunity to sneak in." Zhou Yangyang pointed to the gate next to the gardener, "We will meet here after you find Xiaoyan."

    Fang Xiaoyuan took a deep breath, clenched the badge in her hand, and walked out of the passage.  Don't look at her expressionless face, in fact, she is just pretending to be calm, and the little drumstick in her heart has already started dancing.

    The gardeners quickly spotted her and blocked the way with their hands.  Fang Xiaoyuan held up the bright yellow seven-pointed star badge high, but her head was lowered.  She didn't dare to look into the garden disciple's eyes, for fear that it would see his flaws if she was not careful.

    The gardener stretched out his palm towards the badge, and when he got close to it, the badge immediately glowed golden. It was exactly the same as what happened last time on the Yongri Grassland. The only difference was that the badge did not disappear this time.  After a few seconds, it withdrew its hand.

    Fang Xiaoyuan was overjoyed in his heart, and couldn't wait to walk towards the gate, wanting to rush in to find Xiaoyan.  Suddenly, the hand that had been retracted just now stretched out again.  Fang Xiaoyuan raised her head, only to see the gardener shook his head at her, "This way is not going to work."

    "No way?" Fang Xiaoyuan looked at the gardeners, and then at the gate in front of him.  But apart from here, there is no other place to go, so she can't turn around and go back.  While they were in a stalemate, a strange noise came from behind, which attracted the attention of the gardeners.  It stretched its neck to look deep into the passage, but found nothing.

    "Paji!" At this time, the sound of something breaking came from the passage again, and the gardener couldn't stand any longer. He signaled Fang Xiaoyuan with his eyes to stay where he was, and then he walked around the corner and walked towards the passage that made frequent sounds.??

    Fang Xiaoyuan knew that it was Zhou Yangyang's voice to attract the attention of the gardeners, and when the gardeners completely disappeared into the corner, she stretched out her hand and opened the door in front of her.

    As soon as I walked in, I saw a magnificent palace.  Dark red velvet curtains hung on the four walls, and the inlaid golden lace flickered under the lights.  The ceiling is high, and five crystal chandeliers of different shapes hang down from the roof, emitting dazzling light.  Facing the gate was a golden statue, Fang Xiaoyuan took a closer look, and found that the statue was none other than the vicious garden principal himself.

    It seems that this is the real home of that guy, Fang Xiaoyuan thought, but where was the place she went to before?  Before she had time to think about it, she walked up the smooth carpeted white marble stairs to the "second floor".

    It is said that it is the second floor, but it is more appropriate to call it the attic.  Not only does it not have the gorgeous decorations downstairs, but the space is much narrower. Naturally, there are no luxurious crystal chandeliers on the ceiling. There are only a few candle lamps standing in the corner, reluctantly shining.

    Fang Xiaoyuan leaned against the door closest to her, listening to small voices coming from inside.

    "the last choiceif it doesn't work, I will"

    "errorsurrender"

    I don't know if the soundproofing of the door is too good or the voice inside is too low, Fang Xiaoyuan can only capture a few key words, and can't hear the conversation at all, but she can vaguely distinguish that the people talking inside are the principal and the little man.  small smoke.

    It's strange, didn't those gardeners say that they put Xiao Yan in the dungeon?  But no matter from which angle you look at it, it doesn't look like a dungeon here.  Fang Xiaoyuan was wondering, when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, and he was about to reach the door.

    The principal, the little man, opened the door, walked out with a muffled grunt, and slammed the door shut again with a "bang".  It seems that the negotiation just now did not go well.

    Hearing the sound of footsteps going further and further away, Fang Xiaoyuan, who was clinging to the door of the next room, heaved a sigh of relief.  She turned around, and suddenly saw eight round eyes shining in the dark room, staring at her flickeringly.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
