Ping Mountain, Judgement Army's camp …
Wei Meiyu was lying sideways on the sofa as if she was asleep.
Priest White Bamboo and Xia Pingan were standing beside her. Priest White Bamboo was holding his Soul Crystal Ball in his hand and mumbling something. The crystal ball was spinning above Wei Meiyu's head.
There were all kinds of changing lights and shadows in the crystal ball. There were all kinds of faces and people. Some faces were blurry, some were clear, some were blurred dreams, and some were scenes of Wei Meiyu going to and from work on the tram bus every day. In Wei Meiyu's intermittent blurred dreams, a gray fog could be vaguely seen above her head …
After a long time, Priest White Bamboo gently put away the Soul Crystal Ball in his hand and turned to Xia Pingan beside him. "I can confirm that it is indeed a Nightmare. This little girl was invaded by the Nightmare in her sleep and unknowingly became a puppet of the Nightmare …"
Xia Pingan frowned. "How did she get the Black Poison?"
"It should have been secretly stuffed into her bag when she was going to and from work on the tram bus. She didn't even know!"
"Can you confirm who gave it to her?"
Priest White Bamboo shook his head. "I can't be sure. She meets many people on the way to and from work every day. The faces in her memory are too blurry. Some of them have no memory at all. She doesn't know who gave it to her, so even if we trace her soul and memory, we can't find that person!"
"That is to say, we have no way to find the Nightmare and lock onto its whereabouts?"
"I'm afraid so. So far, the Judgement Army has no information about the Nightmare. We don't even know whether the Nightmare is a man or a woman. The Nightmare is the most difficult one to deal with among the Five Demons …"
"Then why can the Nightmare invade her dreams?"
White Bamboo Priest's eyes turned profound as he said in a low voice, "The mystery of dreams is beyond everyone's imagination. Dreamland is not an unconscious illusion in one's mind, but the experience of one's spiritual body in another world. That world could exist beyond time and space. Therefore, many things in dreamland are signs of the real world. That's why dream seers appeared …"
"What you mean is that the world in dreams is connected, just like the real world. That's why the Nightmare can invade and control others through dreams and turn them into puppets?"
"I'm not familiar with the realm of dreams. This realm is too mysterious. But according to various signs, I'm afraid it's like this. The Nightmare doesn't need to come in contact with people to influence and control others through dreams!" Priest White Bamboo looked deeply at Xia Pingan. and shook his head. he sighed. "You're really a troublemaker..... You haven't been here for long and so many people want your head.........
Xia Pingan smiled bitterly, "Don't you know? I was forced to do it!"
......... You. You.... he. failed failed....... You... but he.. and you. he. Although he failed failed failed failed................. he................. You... you.
"I'll be careful!" . "Xia Pingan sent Priest White Bamboo to the door." Can I ask. Can the Nightmare control the Summoner? "
"The Summoner can also dream. Naturally, he can control them. But the Summoner's spiritual will is much stronger than ordinary people. Even if he can control them, it won't be easy. The higher the level of the Summoner, the harder it is to be controlled."
"Okay. I understand. Take care."
Priest White Bamboo left. Only Xia Pingan and Wei Meiyu were left in the room.
In the afternoon, Xia Pingan found a reason to bring the confession of Fiery Rhinoceros and Wei Meiyu to the Judgement Army's Ping Mountain camp. He found Priest White Bamboo.
According to Xia Pingan, after the assassination failed, the assassin was caught by him. After writing this confession, he took poison and died when he was not paying attention. He turned into thick blood. Anyway, he had the confession. It didn't matter whether the assassin was alive or not.
As for Wei Meiyu, Xia Pingan asked Priest White Bamboo to check if there were any hidden dangers or clues on Wei Meiyu. This girl was good. Xia Pingan didn't want her to be inexplicably involved in these complicated things and be harmed by the Nightmare.
As soon as Priest White Bamboo left, Xia Pingan snapped his fingers in Wei Meiyu's ear. Wei Meiyu woke up at once.
Making people fall asleep was just a small spell. After Xia Pingan merged with the Nanke Dream Realm Pearl, he mastered the method of summoning sleepy worms with Divine Power. When summoned, sleepy worms would fly into people's ears and they would fall asleep.
When Wei Meiyu woke up and saw that she was sleeping on the sofa, she lost her composure and blushed. She quickly stood up and tidied up her dress. She lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry. I don't know when I fell asleep …"
"It's okay. You're probably a little tired these days. You don't have to come to the office so early in the morning. You can rest more and go to work at normal hours …"
"Sir, that, the documents are ready?" Wei Meiyu looked and found that the documents she brought were gone. Her face turned even redder.
"Well, it's ready. I didn't wake you up when I saw that you were asleep. I've handed in the documents. Let's go. It's okay!"
Xia Pingan then took Wei Meiyu out of the General Affairs Building of the Judgement Army.
When they walked out of the gate of the Judgement Army's Ping Mountain Camp, it was already evening. There were two black rental carriages parked by the roadside outside. Xia Pingan sent Wei Meiyu into one of the carriages and asked the coachman to send Wei Meiyu home. He then got into the other one.
The iron-masked man sat in the carriage and waited. The little black pig curled up under the seat of the carriage and didn't let any sense of existence.
"How is it?" The iron-masked man asked.
"It's confirmed. It's a nightmare!" Xia Pingan nodded.
"Then you have to be careful in the future!"
"Well, I'll deal with it when the time comes!" Xia Pingan said, "By the way, do you want to eat something together?"
From last night at the Roc King Auction House until now, he and the iron-masked man had not eaten anything. There were too many things to do and they had forgotten about it. Now that he thought about it, he was a little hungry.
"Okay!" The iron-masked man touched his stomach. "I know a fish slices restaurant in Shang Jing City. It's good. The fish slices with peach blossom wine and plum sauce are the best!"
"Okay, let's go and try it!"
When it came to eating, drinking, and playing in Shang Jing City, ten Xia Pingan's would not know as much as the iron-masked man.
From last night until now, he had already experienced two assassinations and a big change. Xia Pingan's mind had always been tense. It was necessary to relax appropriately.
…
The Peach Blossom Fish Slices were in an alley in an old residential area by the Qin An River in Shang Jing City. When the carriage arrived, the sky was already dark.
Those who could find this place were all old foodies in Shang Jing City.
The fish slices used delicious sea fish. Together with the peach blossom wine and plum sauce that went with the fish slices, they were all the shop's ancestral craftsmanship.
When they arrived, the iron-masked man took off his mask and was quite relaxed.
The cook, who was the boss, was energetic, while the husband, who was the shop assistant, was dull and simple. There were not many diners in the shop. A table with a small stove occupied a small room. It was quite stylish. Because the fish slices here were a little expensive for ordinary people, more than ten or twenty silver coins would be gone after a meal, those who came here to eat fish slices were all regular customers like the iron-masked man.
The little black pig was in the carriage and did not follow them down.
The fish slices were indeed fresh and beautiful. The peach blossom wine had a special taste. Xia Pingan and the iron-masked man ate heartily.
…
The little black pig had been obediently staying in the carriage. Carriages could not enter the alley in the residential area, so the carriage stopped by the Qin An River.
As Xia Pingan and the iron-masked man left, the little black pig, who was hiding under the seat, rolled its eyes.
As the night deepened, the Qin An River was quiet. There was only the sound of the waves crashing against the bank. The pleasure boats of the past were all quiet today. There were no singing or dancing.
Xia Pingan and the iron-masked man had been eating fish slices for a long time. The coachman had just left the carriage to relieve himself.
The little black pig suddenly came out from under the seat and stood on its hind legs. It lay on the door of the carriage and used its two front hooves to press the door handle. With a click, the door opened.
The next second, the little black pig jumped out of the carriage. It was as fast as lightning and disappeared into the darkness.
The little black pig thought that it had run away, but it did not know that Child of Fortune was riding on it and treating it as a mount. He was giggling happily …
…
The iron-masked man raised his eyebrows and looked at Xia Pingan with a smile. "Your little pet is not very obedient …"
"It's okay. Let it run!" Xia Pingan smiled and raised his cup. "Thank you for helping me last night. If you didn't help me, I wouldn't have been able to get it by myself …"
The small room was isolated from the outside sound by a spell. Therefore, the two of them could chat here without any worries.
"You're welcome. As long as I saw the situation last night, I couldn't just sit by and watch!" The iron-masked man drank the peach blossom wine in one gulp.
"Actually, you're more suitable to join the Judgment Army!"
The iron-masked man coughed a little embarrassedly. "When I was in the One Sun Realm, I also wanted to join it. However, I was rejected and was not selected. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been here. When I have money, I don't need to join it anymore …"
Xia Pingan was slightly stunned before bursting into laughter …
"Tell me, why did you join the Judgment Army?" the iron-masked man asked.
"Actually, I'm a Spacewalker. I joined the Judgment Army because I wanted to establish myself in Shang Jing City and obtain cultivation resources …" Xia Pingan said with a smile.
The iron-masked man gasped slightly. The way he looked at Xia Pingan changed a little. He stared at Xia Pingan with a meaningful look. "You're telling me such a secret. You really don't treat me as an outsider …"
"Haha, it's nothing. Even the Blood Demon Church knows about it. You don't have to be afraid even if you know. I'm now wanted by the Blood Demon Church!"
"That's strange. Why would the Blood Demon Church target you?"
"Would you believe me if I said I didn't know?" Xia Pingan shook his head. "It should be that the Blood Demon Church is like this to all Spacewalkers!"
The iron-masked man thought for a while and shook his head. "No, the Blood Demon Church is indeed unfriendly to Spacewalkers. However, there aren't many of them who target Spacewalkers. Moreover, how did they know about your identity?"
"You mean that the Blood Demon Church usually doesn't target Spacewalkers?"
"At least, as far as I know, they didn't before!" The iron-masked man shook his head. "Because there are many Spacewalkers who enter the Yuan Qiu World, and they all enter secretly. If the Blood Demon Church issued a kill order for every Spacewalker, how many people do you think the Blood Demon Church would want to kill? Moreover, under normal circumstances, the identity of Spacewalkers is a secret. Only the Spacewalkers know about it. It's not easy for the Blood Demon Church to confirm the identity of Spacewalkers. How did you get exposed? "
After hearing what the iron-masked man said, Xia Pingan also felt that this matter seemed to be a little strange. The situation might be a little different from what he had imagined.
Thinking back, from the very beginning, there had been an accident during the transmission process of the "Heaven Patching Plan". He and many others had deviated from the transmission destination.
Moreover, as soon as they arrived at the Yuan Qiu World and got separated, the Blood Demon Church had already known their identities and started to hunt them down. It seemed that they wanted to catch all the members of the "Heaven Patching Plan" in one fell swoop.
If all this was abnormal, then there must be a special reason behind it.
