Chapter 310
310 Returning to the camp
Ping mountain, the adjudicator Army’s camp.
Wei Meiyu was lying on her side on the sofa as if she was sleeping.
The White bamboo priest and Xia ping ‘an stood beside her. The White bamboo priest held his soul crystal ball in his hand and muttered something. The crystal ball turned around on Wei Meiyu’s head.
All kinds of changing lights and shadows, all kinds of faces, and all kinds of people appeared in the crystal ball. Some faces were blurry, some were clear, some were blurred dreams, and some were scenes of Wei Meiyu taking the trolleybus to and from work every day. In Wei Meiyu’s intermittent blurred dreams, a cloud of gray-black mist could be vaguely seen around her head.
After a long time, priest Bai Zhu gently put away the soul crystal ball in her hand. She turned to Xia Pingan and said, ” I can confirm that it is indeed the dream demon. This little girl was invaded by the dream demon in her sleep and unknowingly became the dream demon’s puppet, bi an.
Xia Pingan frowned, ” how did she get her black evil poison? ”
“Someone must have put it in her bag when she was on the bus to get off work. She didn’t even know it!”
“Can you confirm who stuffed it into her hands?”
The White bamboo priest shook her head. I can’t be sure. She meets a lot of people on her way to and from work every day. The faces in her memory are too blurry, and some of them don’t even exist. She doesn’t know who gave them to her. So, even if we trace her soul and memory, it’s impossible to find that person!
“In other words, we have no way to find the dream demon and lock onto his whereabouts?”
I’m afraid so. So far, the adjudicator Army has no information on the dream demon, and they don’t even know if it’s a man or a woman. The dream demon is the most difficult one to deal with among the five demons, ” ye mo said.
then why was the dream demon able to invade her dream? ”
Priest Bai Zhu’s gaze turned deep and she said softly, ” the mystery of dreams is beyond everyone’s imagination. Dreams are not unconscious illusions in the brain, but the training of the human spirit in another world. That world can exist beyond time and space. Therefore, many things in dreams are omens of the real world. This is why Dream Masters with illusionary realms have appeared.
you mean that the world in the dream is connected, just like the real world, so the dream demon can invade and control others through dreams and turn them into puppets? ”
I’m not familiar with the domain of dreams. This domain is too mysterious, but according to the various signs, I’m afraid that’s the case. Dream demons don’t need to come into contact with people to influence and control them through dreams! As he spoke, priest Bai Zhu looked deeply at Xia ping ‘an, shook his head slightly, and sighed, ” you’re really good at causing trouble. You’ve only been in Shangjing for a short time, and so many people want your head!
Xia Pingan smiled bitterly. don’t you know that I was forced to do this? ”
alright, you should pay more attention to yourself in the future. The affairs of Sun family will be dealt with by the judicial force. You should pay more attention to dream demon. Although dream demon failed this time, since you’ve been targeted by him, he shouldn’t give up so easily. In the future, you should pay more attention to the people around you. Don’t be unaware of a gun pointing at your head!
“I’ll be careful!” Xia ping ‘an had already sent the White bamboo priest to the door, ” may I ask, can the dream demon control the summoner? ”
Summoners can dream too, so they will naturally be controlled by him. However, a Summoner’s spiritual will is much stronger than an ordinary person’s. Therefore, even if he can control them, it shouldn’t be that easy. Moreover, the higher the level of a Summoner, the harder it is for him to control them!
alright, I understand. Take care, old man!
The priest white bamboo left, leaving only Xia Pingan and Wei Meiyu, who seemed to be asleep.
In the afternoon, Xia ping ‘an found an excuse and brought the confession of the flame rhinoceros and Wei Meiyu to the judgement Army’s Ping Shan camp to find priest Bai Zhu.
According to Xia Pingan, after the assassin failed to assassinate him, he was caught by him. After writing this confession, he took poison and died while he was not paying attention, turning it into thick blood. Anyway, with the confession, it did not matter whether the assassin was alive or not.
As for Wei Meiyu, Xia ping ‘an wanted to let priest Bai Zhu see if there were any hidden dangers and clues on Wei Meiyu’s body. This girl was not bad, and Xia ping’ an didn’t want her to be inexplicably involved in these complicated things and be harmed by the dream demon.
As soon as the White bamboo priest left, Xia Pingan snapped her fingers in Wei Meiyu’s ear, and Wei Meiyu woke up.
Making people fall asleep was just a small spell. After Xia Pingan had fused with the realm Pearl of Nanke Yimeng, he had mastered the method of summoning the sleepy bug with divine power. When he summoned it, the sleepy bug 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 self-control and blushed. She quickly stood up, tidied her dress, and lowered her head as she mumbled, ” I’m sorry, I didn’t know when I fell asleep, Yingluo.
it’s fine. You must be tired these days. In the future, you don’t have to come to the office so early in the morning. You can rest for a while and work during normal hours, Yingluo.
“My Lord, are the documents ready?” Wei Meiyu looked around and found that the documents she brought were gone, and her face turned even redder.
yes, it’s done. I didn’t wake you up just now because you were asleep. I’ve already handed in the documents. Let’s go, everything’s fine!
Xia Pingan then left the general Affairs building of the adjudicator Union with Wei Meiyu.
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 on the side of the road outside. Xia Pingan sent Wei Meiyu to one carriage and had the coachman send Wei Meiyu home while he got into the other.
The iron-faced man sat in the car and waited, while the little black pig was curled up under the seat in the car, not letting itself have any sense of existence at all.
“How is it?” The iron-faced man asked.
“I’ve confirmed it, it’s the dream demon!” Xia Pingan nodded.
“Then you have to be careful in the future!”
“Mm, we’ll deal with it as soldiers come, water comes, earth comes!” Xia Pingan said, ” by the way, do you want to go and eat something together? ”
Actually, Zhang tie and the iron-face man had not eaten anything since they arrived at King Roc auction house last night. As there were too many things to deal with, they forgot about it for the time being. Now that he thought about it, he was a bit hungry.
“Alright!” The iron-faced man touched his stomach. I know of a restaurant in Shangjing that sells fish dumplings. They’re pretty good. It’s the best when paired with peach blossom wine and plum sauce!
“Alright, let’s go and try it!”
When it came to eating, drinking, and having fun in Shangjing city, even ten Xia pingans added up would not know as much as the iron-faced man.
From last night until now, he had already experienced two assassinations and a big change. Xia Pingan’s spirit had been tense the whole time, and it was necessary to relax.
……
The peach blossom fisherman’s boat was located in a small alley in an old residential area by the Qin an River in Shangjing. When the carriage arrived, the sky had already turned dark.
Those who could find this place were all old women in Shangjing.
The fish in the basket was fresh and delicious saltwater fish, paired with peach flower wine and plum sauce. These were all the shop’s ancestral skills.
The iron-masked man took off his mask and felt quite relaxed.
The boss’s female cook was very energetic while the waiter’s husband was simple and honest. There were not many customers in the restaurant. Each table was matched with a small stove, which occupied a small room, which was quite stylish. Because the price of the fish meat banquet here was a little expensive for ordinary people, and one meal would cost 10 – 20 silver coins. Therefore, those who came here to eat fish meat were regular customers like the iron-faced man.
The little black pig was in the carriage and did not follow them down.
The fish roe was indeed fresh and beautiful, and the peach flower wine had a unique taste. Xia Pingan and the iron-faced man ate heartily.
……
The little black pig had been sitting obediently in the carriage. The carriage could not enter the alley of the residential area, so it was parked by the Qin an River.
As soon as Xia Pingan and the iron-faced man left, the eyes of the little black pig, which was hiding under the seat, rolled around.
As the night deepened, the Qin an River was quiet, with only the sound of the waves hitting the bank. The pleasure boats that used to be there had all stopped today, and there were no songs or dances.
Xia ping ‘an and the iron-faced man had been eating fish for a long time, and the coachman had just left the carriage to go to the bathroom.
The little black pig suddenly came out from under the seat, stood on its hind legs, and lay on the door of the carriage. It used its two front hooves to press on the door handle inside the door and opened the door with a click.
The next second, the little black pig darted out of the car at lightning speed and disappeared into the darkness.
The little black pig thought it had run away, but it didn’t know that the Child of Fortune was riding on it, treating it as a Mount. He was chuckling happily and giggling.
……
The iron-faced man’s eyebrows twitched and he smiled at Xia Pingan. your little pet is not very well-behaved, Yingluo.
“It’s fine, let it run!” Xia Pingan smiled and raised his glass. this glass of wine is for your help last night. If you didn’t help, I wouldn’t have been able to get it on my own, Yingluo.
The small room was isolated from the outside world with a spell, so the two of them could chat in peace.
you’re welcome. I couldn’t just sit by and watch the situation last night! The iron-faced man finished the peach wine in one gulp.
“You’re actually more suited to join the judgement Army!”
The iron-faced man coughed a little awkwardly. I wanted to join when I was in the one sun realm, but I was rejected and wasn’t chosen. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to do what I did later. When I had money, there was no need for me to join Wufu.
Xia Pingan was slightly stunned, then he laughed out loud.
“Tell me, why did you join the judgement Army?” The iron-faced man asked.
actually, I’m a space doner. I joined the judgement Army because I wanted to establish myself in Shangjing city and then get some cultivation resources, ” Xia Pingan said with a smile.
The iron-faced man took a deep breath, and the way he looked at Xia ping ‘an changed. He stared at Xia ping’ an with a profound look and said, ” 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 won’t be afraid even if you know. I’m being hunted down by the blood demon church now!
that’s strange. Why did the blood demon church target you? ”
“Would you believe me if I said I don’t know?” Xia ping ‘an shook his head, ” it should be that the bloody demon church treats all the space dweller this way!
The iron-faced man thought for a moment and shook his head. no, the blood demon church is indeed unfriendly to space dweller, but it seems that there aren’t many of them who would go out of their way to target you. Also, how did they know about your identity? ”
do you mean that the blood demon church usually doesn’t hunt down those who cross the sky? ”
“At least, from what I know, it wasn’t before!” The iron-faced man shook his head. because there are many space travelers who enter Yuan Qiu world, and they all enter secretly. If the blood demon church issued a kill order for every space traveler, do you think how many people the blood demon church would want to kill? Besides, under normal circumstances, the identity of a space dweller is a secret, and only the space dweller himself knows about it. It’s not easy for the blood demon church to confirm the identity of a space dweller, so how did you get exposed?”
After hearing what the iron-masked man said, Xia Pingan also felt that there was something strange about this matter. The situation might be different from what he had imagined.
Thinking back, from the very beginning, there had been an accident during the teleportation process of the “sky patching plan,” and he and many others had deviated from the teleportation point.
Furthermore, the moment they came to Yuan Qiu world and got separated, the blood demon church had already found out about their identities and put out a bounty to kill them. It seemed like they wanted to catch all the members of the ‘heaven mending plan’ in one fell swoop.
If all of this was abnormal, there must be a special reason behind it.
