"The tombstone is huge. It's made of black sacrificial stone, so it's very heavy. Considering the size of the animals in the forest, it's impossible for them to take the tombstone away. "
Therefore, Ai Dehua was sure that the tombstone was taken away by someone.
But who?
Ai Dehua didn't know, but he wondered if it was Ghost Rider who quietly took it away.
After all, Ghost Rider's movements were the most difficult to predict in the entire castle.
However, Ai Dehua quickly denied this conjecture because he found several footprints in a slightly muddy wetland dozens of meters away from the tombstone pit.
The footprints were new, as if they were stepped on recently.
And judging from the type of footprints, there were at least five people.
If Ghost Rider really wanted to take the tombstone away, it wouldn't take so many people. Also, the footprints were all flat, completely different from the soles of Ghost Rider's armored boots.
Because of this, Ai Dehua ruled out Ghost Rider.
But if it wasn't Ghost Rider, then who were the five extra people? And where did they come from?
"Did you find the answer?"
Ai Dehua shook his head. "No. But I'm guessing that the people who took away the tombstone and Dead Man's Rope weren't from the outside world. "
Whenever someone from the outside world, such as Siluda, arrived at the castle, everyone would receive a hint indicating that an outsider had entered.
This hint was the same as when they received a character and played it. It was a fact told to them by an unknown existence or unknown rules.
During that time, Ai Dehua didn't receive any hint of an outsider entering, so it couldn't be someone from the outside world who took away the offerings.
If it wasn't someone from the outside world, then who could it be?
"My guess is that maybe it was someone from the Yi World who took away the Dead Man's Rope and Tombstone."
Just like when Ai Dehua was brought to the secret place by Bubble.
Perhaps someone from the Yi World also knew the entrance to the secret place, so they entered and took away the offerings.
"I don't have any evidence, and this is only my guess. Because I can't think of anyone who can take away the offerings apart from the visitors from the Yi World. "
At this point, Ai Dehua raised his eyes to look at the people on the tea table. "Although I don't know if my guess is correct, I'm sure that if someone from Yi World really came and took away the sacrifice, then the Ghost Rider would definitely know. In fact, it might even be Ghost Rider who pushed for this. "
In other words, if he was still interested in the "sacrifice", he would have to ask Ghost Rider about it.
He understood what Ai Dehua was trying to say. But he was interested in the sacrifice because he wanted to know the meaning behind it. If Ai Dehua was right, the sacrifice would be taken away by the people of the Instrument World at a fixed time, then the sacrifice would have a meaning behind it.
Going one step further, the secret location of the Knight's Castle, as well as role-playing, would also have a corresponding meaning.
There was no need for him to ask Ghost Rider.
But if he had the chance to come into contact with that magical mirror window, he really didn't mind having an in-depth chat with Ghost Rider …
Since he already had some ideas, he decided to change the topic. "You mentioned that there are many secret areas, right?"
Ai Dehua nodded. "When I was working as a hairdresser in Yi World, I heard about the existence of a secret area from some customers while I was looking for a way to leave. According to them, there's more than one. "
"How did they know?"
Ai Dehua knew what Angor was trying to say. Since they knew about the secret area, maybe they had something to do with the owner or creator of the secret area.
"The legends about secret areas have been passed down since ancient times," said Ai Dehua. "But only the nobles know about them. Most people don't know about them."
So it wasn't because Dehua was an insider. It was because the legends about secret areas existed since ancient times.
"Moreover, there are many legends, biographies, and even stories about secret places in the hands of the nobles."
For example, Ai Dehua once read a book called "The Fairy Prince and Princess Tini".
It told the story of a made-up princess named Tini.
Tini was beautiful, but she was like a canary trapped in the royal palace. She had no freedom and could not see the sky outside. Ever since she was born, her life had been arranged by her parents. Even her marriage had been arranged properly.
When Tini was 16 years old, she went to a neighboring country to meet her fiancé, who was betrothed to her for political reasons.
On the way to the "marriage alliance", she encountered a fog.
When she walked out of the fog, she saw no one around her. Instead, she found herself in a beautiful fairy garden, where she met a handsome fairy prince.
The rest of the story didn't need to be told. There were all kinds of misunderstandings and misunderstandings. In the end, the two of them got married.
It looked like a romance novel, but the customer who showed it to Ai Dehua insisted, "This is the real story. It's the story of his grandmother. Other than the part of the background that was painted over, most of the other parts were unmistakably authentic. Even the Fairy's Garden does exist. It's a secret place! "
The customer was a poor man, but he was still a descendant of a noble. His words could be trusted.
That was why Ai Dehua, who had been searching for a secret place, had followed the records to find the so-called Fairy's Garden.
Of course, he didn't find anything in the end and left in disappointment.
There were many similar stories and stage plays, such as "Sky Island", "White Dragon Valley", "Underwater Palace", and so on. They were all works of literature based on the existence of secret areas.
Ai Dehua didn't know how many of them were real.
But since the stories had been passed down for so many years, and the nobles all talked about them with great certainty, there should be at least a small part of them that could be used as reference.
And this small part meant that there must be more than one secret area similar to Knight's Castle.
"Did you hear anything about the other secret areas in Knight's Castle?"
Ai Dehua shook his head. "I haven't heard anything about the other secret places. Even if there is, it's not something that my makeup artist character can hear."
"What about Bubble? Bubble's access level is higher than yours, right? Did she tell you anything? "
Ai Dehua shook his head again.
"I don't know if it's a secret place. Have you ever heard of any strange names from Bubble?"
Ai Dehua frowned and muttered to himself, "Abnormal place names? I don't think so — "
Ai Dehua was about to deny it when he suddenly thought of something. "I remember now. Bubbles once mentioned something about an envoy from King Insect Forest."
"At that time, I was styling Bubbles. When I heard her nagging, I asked in passing."
What was a messenger from King Insect Forest?
Bubble spat out a colorful soap bubble and mumbled, "Just a bunch of bugs. I hate bugs. I don't want to talk about them."
Then she changed the topic.
Ai Dehua didn't think too much about it. Now, he finally recalled the conversation from the depths of his memory.
"A messenger from King Insect Forest?" "I don't know what it is, but this King Insect Forest might be another secret area."
"I don't have any concrete evidence, but let's just assume that there are many secret areas in Yi World. So what's the point of having so many secret areas in Yi World? "
Or rather, what was the purpose of the secret areas in Yi World?
Were they used to provide sacrifices?
If so, did the other secret areas require role-playing like Knight's Castle? Or did different secret areas have different rules?
Also, why would a secret area be used as a window to the outside world? What was the purpose of the Spirit Substitution Ritual in a secret area?
The more he learned about Yi World, the more confused he became about it.
Maybe he could ask Granny Dragon Crow for help when she returned to the Sun Mirror Domain.
"You're interested in the Yi World, aren't you?" Laplace's voice came from the Spirit Bond.
Angor nodded. "Yeah, I'm interested."
As a matter of fact, Angor was interested in the Instrument World because of the private conversation he had with Laplace.
Laplace believed that Yi World was similar to the Dream Crystal.
At first, he didn't think much of it. But as he learned more about Yi World, he realized that some of its characteristics were similar to the Dream Crystal.
Angor didn't know what the creator of Yi World was thinking. However, he had a vague feeling that if he went to Jie Yi's world, it would be of great help to him in creating the Dream Crystallization and even more "Dream XX" in the future.
Because of this vague idea, Angor's interest in the Yi World grew higher and higher.
Laplace didn't ask for more details. "If you're interested in Yi World, we can use it and let you study the mirror surface."
"Huh?" How do I do that?
Laplace didn't answer. Instead, Glepnir spoke through the Spirit Bond, "It's simple. We just need Ai Dehua to stay with us."
Ai Dehua was going to use the Spirit Substitution Ritual with Siluda to switch bodies.
At that time, Shiluda would definitely bring the mirror with her. She could use this chance to let Angor study the mirror surface. It shouldn't be a problem.
Angor understood Glepnir's intention. But … Steward Fan was still in the Spirit Bond. Was it really okay to plot against Granny Dragon Crow?
"Don't mind me. I'm just here to help. Now that we have Ai Dehua, we'll let Glepnir deal with him. "
In Steward Fan's opinion, it wasn't a big deal.
Wizards were always interested in new things, so it was normal for them to want to study them.
From what he knew about Granny Dragon Crow, she was only studying the mirror surface for Siluda. Granny Dragon Crow probably wasn't interested in the mirror. She was more interested in the laws of the Gloomy Mirror.
Now that the Woe Puppet showed up, Granny Dragon Crow was even less likely to care about the mirror. Steward Fan didn't mind Angor's request to study the mirror.
Steward Fan didn't mind it at all. In fact, he was even willing to help Granny Dragon Crow.
In a few words, they decided where Ai Dehua would go from here.
Glepnir wasn't going to hand him over to the Crystaleye Race, and the Crystaleye Race probably wouldn't mind.
However, where to place Ai Dehua now was a problem that needed to be considered.
Glepnir looked at Ai Dehua and mumbled, "Maybe we should put him here? Forget it. This is a tea party, and he shouldn't be here. "
Besides, the Silver Forest Tomb was nearby.
Laplace didn't ask for much respect for the tomb, but Glepnir still felt that it was necessary to show some respect.
Ai Dehua was an outsider. It was fine for him to stay in the Silver Forest Tomb for a short time, but it wouldn't be good if he stayed there for a long time.
So where should I put him?
Ai Dehua also heard Gleipnir's mutterings. He also understood that this was the most crucial moment for him.
Glepnir's arrangement would decide his future and the punishment he would receive.
In Ai Dehua's opinion, since he had taken over the body of the Crystal Eye Race's elder, he would definitely be condemned by the Crystal Eye Race. It was just a matter of how severe the punishment would be.
What he didn't know was that Glepnir already had no intention of sending him to the Crystaleye Race.
Ai Dehua was still pondering. Perhaps he should prove his worth and lessen the punishment he received?
His greatest value was his makeup and hairstyling skills. Maybe he could show Glepnir how to do makeup or make a wig on the spot?
Just as Ai Dehua was hesitating, Glepnir had already made his decision.
"You … can follow me for now."
Glepnir thought for a while and decided that he shouldn't leave Ai Dehua in the Silver Forest Space.
When he saw Guta Lace, he would let her take care of Ai Dehua. Guta Lace was also a makeup enthusiast. Her makeup was different every time he saw her.
Ai Dehua could still be of use to Guta Lace.
On the other hand, Ai Dehua didn't have any objections to following Glepnir. He was now a prisoner, and it didn't matter who he followed.
However, Ai Dehua was more concerned about something else. "Then … what's my punishment?"
Punishment?
Glepnir was stunned. He hadn't thought about the punishment at all.
Ai Dehua and Siluda were both victims. Moreover, Ai Dehua hadn't obviously set Siluda up. Everything could only be said to be fate.
However, if he didn't punish Ai Dehua, it didn't seem right. After all, Siluda was her best friend. Now that Ai Dehua had taken over her body, she had to punish Siluda on the surface. It was also to comfort her when she saw Siluda in the future.
After thinking for a while, Glepnir said, "The punishment now is that you have to listen to my orders from now on. You can't disobey.
As for the punishment, we'll talk about it after we see Siluda. "
