Chapter 303 Successfully Escaped from the Barrier
The barrier cast by Boss Hu has been completely destroyed by us and is about to collapse. Old man Qian took Er Miao and me and followed the paper puppet's guidance back the way we came.
I don’t know why, this time, I feel it’s many times faster than last time!
Maybe it's a psychological effect. After all, Jasmine, whom I miss so much, has gotten rid of the shackles of the barrier. Now I feel relaxed and worry-free, and time feels faster.
The paper puppet in the sky suddenly stopped in mid-air, motionless.
The paper puppet completed its mission and successfully brought the three of us back to the real world.
The cute little paper man raised its short short hand and waved at us, as if saying goodbye to us. Then, a blue light ignited all over its body and drifted away in the wind...
Seeing the paper puppet disappear, I felt a little disappointed in my heart!
At this time, my eyes dare to look into the distance...
Immediately, I saw three people sitting far away behind the green tree.
These three people are me, Er Miao and Old Man Qian.
It turns out that the principle of the paper puppet spell performed by Old Man Qian is to take away the souls of the three of us, and then lead us into a world dominated by consciousness, which can also be understood as a special kind of dream.
After our soul leaves the body, our body still remains in the same place without moving!
Only then did I understand why Old Man Qian cast this spell late at night.
Because it requires an out-of-body experience, night is more suitable. If it were during the day, the three people sitting on the grass would be easily spotted.
At this moment, the old man Qian who was walking in front recited another spell...
Immediately, I felt a trance, and at the same time my body had a weightless dizziness...
When I opened my eyes again, I realized that my soul had been reset.
Although our bodies didn't move at all, as if we had just slept, the actual feeling was that our bodies and minds were very tired.
Because I had experienced a similar enchantment when I tried sleeping in a small foreign building before, and I had experienced out-of-body experiences many times while sleeping, so I was already familiar with this feeling.
However, it seemed that this was the first time Er Miao had experienced it, and he had no idea what was going on.
In Er Miao's mind, he probably thought that he had just slept and had a dream, which was just a strange dream that felt very tiring.
After all, Old Man Qian was old. He had cast a lot of spells just now, and now he was very tired. He still sat on the ground and did not get up immediately. Instead, he lit a cigarette and prepared to take a break.
Ermeow had already stood up, and while rubbing his shoulders, he asked me: "Hey, come on, why did you fall asleep just now while sitting here? It's so strange, it seems that I had a dream, but it was just a dream.
Why do you feel so tired all over your body?"
When Old Man Qian heard Er Miao ask this, he just glanced at Er Miao and did not explain anything.
In fact, I don’t want to explain it to Ermiao. Ermiao’s brain is not working well. If I explain to him what out-of-body experience means, he may not be able to understand it.
Ermiao's eyes suddenly widened, as if he had thought of something, and he asked me again: "By the way, in my dream, I seemed to have dreamed of a sister in red..."
wipe……
The sister in red that Er Meow is talking about must be Jasmine!!!
Could it be said that in the barrier, Old Man Qian and Er Miao also saw Jasmine’s spirit body?!
What if they ask me who Jasmine is?
What is the relationship between Jasmine and me?
How should I explain this?
Ermiao is easy to fool, but why is it so difficult to explain to old man Qian? How can he trust me?
So, when Er Meow mentioned "Sister in Red", I secretly glanced at Old Man Qian...
Old Man Qian raised his eyebrows, obviously hearing Er Miao's words.
However……
What I didn't expect was that old man Qian was still smoking with his head down, but he didn't ask me any questions?
He didn't ask, and I didn't know whether I should take the initiative to explain?
Actually, I don't want to hide anything, but Jasmine's life experience is extremely complicated, and I don't know how to explain it?
I can only open my mouth and don’t know what to say?
Anyway, this feeling is really uncomfortable!
Old Man Qian quickly finished his cigarette. He stood up and looked at the house in the distance.
It seems that in his heart, Old Man Qian doesn't care why a woman in red appears in the barrier?
Old Man Qian raised his finger and pointed to the small triangular bungalow in front, and said to Er Miao and I: "Now that the barrier has been cleared, we can enter that house to see what's fishy..."
right!
This should be the biggest purpose of our action!
At least, that was Old Man Qian’s purpose.
And what about me?
The main purpose of breaking the barrier is to find and rescue Jasmine.
Now that Jasmine has escaped, I am not very interested in entering the triangular house.
The main purpose of Old Man Qian to break the barrier was to enter the house and check it out to see what was going on?
As a qualified Taoist priest, Mr. Qian has a lifelong professional ethics of promoting good and punishing evil. Although this operation is completely free, now that he knows that there are bad people doing bad things here, how can the respected Taoist Qian ignore it?
So, we no longer wasted time and walked quickly towards the triangular house...
Without the constraints of the barrier, we could easily open the outermost fence door. I didn't have the key to the door, but it was not difficult for Old Man Qian.
He took out the lock picking tool from his crossbody bag. It was actually a soft and thin card. Just insert it into the crack of the door and the lock tongue would pop open. Many people can do it, it's very simple.
After opening the door, I recalled Lao Chen's previous action of closing the switch and turned on the light switch in the room.
The room was lit up instantly!
To be honest, after entering the house, my first impression was that the furnishings inside were almost the same as when Lao Chen and I came a few days ago.
When Edward rented this house, he didn't seem to have any intention of living in it. Anyway, all the furnishings looked as they were.
I frowned and muttered something strange: "It looks like nothing has been touched. Could it be that the reason why Edward rented a house is not the house itself..."
As soon as I finished saying this, Old Man Qian interrupted me and said, "Wrong, it's not like it's still the same. Look up..."
As he spoke, Old Man Qian raised his hand and pointed at the ceiling of the bedroom...
As I said before, the place was blocked from light, so it was a bit dark and I couldn't see clearly.
But when Old Man Qian pointed at me, I discovered that there used to be a very thick wooden beam on the ceiling. Now the beam had been sawed open, and a section of the wood in the middle was missing.
In other words, a complete beam is missing a piece of wood in the middle!
What's going on here?!
