There were many obstacles in front of him. First, he was trapped in his own younger body — sharp hairpins, burning red sticks, a dirty horsewhip, the woman's hands as sharp as pliers. At the end of everything, there was Gu Yun, half-clad in steel armor, watching him silently, piercing through many years.

Chang Geng stared at him like a life-saving straw, struggling to maintain his own line of clarity. He did not know how long it took for the demonic illusions to gradually get away from him. Chang Geng came back to his senses exhausted, and saw that the tranquilizer fragrance on the table had burned out. Chen Qing Xu was gathering the silver needles.

Only then did he realize that he could move again.

Chen Qing Xu: "How do you feel?"

Chang Geng moved his hand for a while, and saw that there were many small bruises on his arms, and he did not know where they came from. They had already scabbed and itched a little. He tried to clench his fist. "It's like climbing out once more."

After Chen Qing Xu left, Chang Geng immediately fell asleep. Over the years, his sleep seemed to be a lake surface which could be broken even by a stone. Aside from the loss of blood and being in a coma, he rarely had this feeling of deep sleep, having no nightmares for the first time.

He dreamt of a lofty watchtower. There was a fire in the distance. The camp was heavily guarded, with a sense of ready for battle. A group of soldiers who came back from the camp patrol was tightening their reins. Suddenly, the leader looked back at him: it turned out to be Gu Yun. He wore a liuli glass that was flashier than a mask, the silver lining and the dark armor complemented each other, he looked at him and smiled teasingly.

In the dream, Chang Geng said with a laugh, "What on earth are you wearing?"

Gu Yun stretched out a hand on horseback, the metal arm burning Ziliujn with the firepower easily pulled him up on the horse. Gu Yun hugged him from behind, laughing, and said to his ear, "The military camp is too lonesome, trying to coerce a few little beauties."

People could not cover up their subtle thoughts in their dreams. Knowing what he said was only a joke, Chang Geng's heart was still full of unspeakable grievances: "I've been troubled all night in the capital, for fear of going wrong step by step. I only hoped to hear a few words from you every day, but nothing came."

Gu Yun said helplessly: "Your Highness, you come all the way here to this remote place to act spoiled?"
