  Ming Shi did not agree to him immediately, but waited for a while before speaking.

  "here."

  The clear and ethereal voice penetrated the darkness, bringing people the only comfort. Mu Ziyang almost immediately locked Ming Shi's position.

  He walked towards it, exploring the air with his hands. After a while, he felt a silky feeling on his hands. He knew that this was the cloak Mingshi was wearing.

  Mu Ziyang originally wanted to grab Mingshi's clothes, but the next second she grabbed his wrist and pulled him forward.

  "Don't talk too much." Ming Shi didn't want to listen to Mu Ziyang's subsequent nagging and teachings, so he just spoke first.

  “Hey, Master’s Wife, fine, I won’t say much, but why did you come here alone? What if you were in danger? No, we are already in danger now. How could those people in the special department be so useless that they didn’t even notice anything unusual here? But Master’s Wife, don’t be afraid, I will definitely protect you for Master. Don’t look at me because I look…”

  Ming Shi paused and interrupted Mu Ziyang: "Don't talk."

  "H-What happened?"

  “There is a sound.”

  "Ah? Sound? Where is the sound? Master's wife, please hide behind me!" Mu Ziyang hurriedly stood in front of Mingshi, scratching his head, and opened his eyes wide as hard as he could, pretending to look around fiercely, but it was too dark and he could not see anything. He moved his ears again, but heard nothing.

  At this moment, a hand patted his shoulder from behind, and Mu Ziyang was so surprised that he almost jumped up. After being frightened, he suddenly remembered that it was Mingshi standing behind him, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

  "Master's wife, I can't stand being scared like this, please don't tease me."

  "Oh" Mingshi replied him with a single word indifferently, walked back to the front from the back, took Mu Ziyang's wrist and continued walking forward.

  Mu Ziyang followed subconsciously, his attention now shifted to another point, "Oh, by the way, Master's Wife, what was that sound you just mentioned? Why didn't I hear it? Is it because I'm not strong enough? No, that's not right. Even if I'm not strong, I can't be unable to hear when I can't see. The Taoist priest said that I would become the strongest man in the world, so I shouldn't have been so weak at the beginning..."

  "Mu Ziyang." Ming Shi's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she sighed inwardly. Finally, she couldn't help but interrupt him again, "Do you really want to know what that voice was?"

  "Of course." Mu Ziyang keenly felt that Mingshi's tone was wrong, and suddenly felt confused and embarrassed.

  "Oh, that's because you're too noisy."

  When Mingshi was about to say something, a voice sounded first. That decadent and beautiful voice seemed to be bewitching, creating ripples in the hearts of those who heard it.

  The very distinctive voice was instantly recognisable.

  Mu Ziyang ignored the teasing in his words and shouted, "Captain Xu, you're here, hurry up, we're here."

  He was not curious at all about why Xu Bai appeared here, but his heart suddenly beat faster and a bad premonition emerged in his mind.

  And her feeling was correct. The moment Mu Ziyang finished speaking, a rustling sound suddenly rang out, which seemed to evoke the fear and terror in people's hearts in the pitch-dark night.

  Then, accompanied by Mu Ziyang's scream, he suddenly disappeared from the spot.

  Ming Shi felt the sudden emptiness in his hands and couldn't help but curl up his fingers. Xu Bai didn't make a sound except for the words he just said.

  It seemed that Mingshi was the only one left around, but the rustling sound was getting closer and closer, as if it would reach her porcelain-white neck in the next moment.

  Shutu realized that Mingshi was in danger and finally couldn't help but run out of the bag. His body grew bigger and bigger and instantly returned to its huge original form.

  With its teeth bared in a ferocious expression and a violent roar, the surrounding darkness seemed to be separated by a delicate membrane, which then revealed a flaw, and waves could be seen sliding across the surrounding area.

  Mingshi stood beside Shutu, stroking its thick fur, frowning, suppressing his worry and asking around: "Captain Xu, what did you do to Mu Ziyang?"  

  "Don't worry, I just knocked him out and threw him out, don't worry."

  The seductive voice came again from somewhere unknown, as if it came from the left, or from the right, or maybe from all around.

  "But instead of worrying about others, you might as well worry about yourself, Miss Mingshi." Xu Bai chuckled and continued.

  In fact, he just wanted to scare Mingshi. How could he bear to see anything happen to her?

  "Then what do you want to do? Are you an undercover agent of the special operations team?" Mingshi asked.

  "Well... I don't want to do anything, but if I have to, I want to get to know you again."

  When he said this, his tone became very happy, and Ming Shi could clearly hear it from the slightly rising voice.

  Get to know him properly? In this way?
  Ming Shi thought he might be mentally ill.

  "As for whether I'm an undercover agent or not? Not everyone can afford to hire me."

  "hehe"

  Ming Shi didn't really want to pay attention to him at this time. The rustling sound had disappeared, and when there was no talking around, it became eerily quiet. It seemed that everything was calm, but in fact, the danger had already been suppressed.

  Mingshi planned to resolve the danger in front of her first, and did not speak for a while. She patted Shutu, preparing to let it use its ultimate move.

  Although Shutu's power has weakened a lot, it is more than enough to break this dark cage.

  Just as Shutu was ready to attack, Xu Bai's voice rang out again: "Come to think of it, I seem to have seen Miss Mingshi, although not in person."

  This sentence successfully stopped Mingshi from taking the opposite path.

  A light flashed in her eyes, and she asked impatiently: "Where have you seen it? What is that?"

  She had asked Shen Xiao about this before, but it was fruitless because he didn't know. And now Captain Xu's words hit the mark.

  "A picture."

  "painting?"

  "Yes, it's a painting that has been hidden by a family for a thousand years. To be honest, I only saw it secretly, but I have never forgotten it, so now I can recognize Miss Mingshi at a glance."

  A painting?

  Ming Shi simply skipped the other party's ambiguous words and started thinking about the painting directly.

  The painting from a thousand years ago still depicts her.

  That’s right!

  A light flashed in Mingshi's mind. When she was in the Great Sheng period, she had only painted one picture in more than ten years. It was at that time that she curiously begged her father to let the painter paint it, and then the picture was secretly taken away by someone.

  I didn't expect to hear about this painting again a thousand years later.

  It must be it. Mingshi's heart was beating very fast. Her intuition told her that what she was looking for was the painting!
