After the wise master finished explaining to Xiaobao, he went to a corner of the room and took out an unpainted picture frame from a pile of debris.
The wise master looked back at everyone: "I'm going to go inside and have a rest. When you finish asking questions, you can ask Xiaobao to wake me up."
Before everyone could understand what it meant, the body of the wise master slowly became smaller and walked into the frame step by step.
As the figure of the wise master disappeared, a portrait appeared in the originally unpainted frame - a one-eyed boy sitting on a mahogany swing, basking in the sunshine outside the window, and taking a leisurely nap with his eyes closed.
In human aesthetics, symmetry is the most harmonious beauty, but it is difficult to look beautiful with one eye.
But in this painting, Rembrandt's use of light makes the light and shadow contours on the face of the one-eyed boy profound and graceful, quiet and beautiful.
"Is he really asleep?" Doakes looked at the sleeping boy in the painting and murmured in a low voice.
"Of course Lord Master is asleep. This painting is a sweet dream. In the painting, a short rest can..." The one-eyed little treasure in the water glass was explaining, but in the middle of the explanation, he suddenly stopped
.
Doakes looked at the one-eyed baby in confusion: "Continue?"
Dumu Xiaobao snorted: "Brother Erbao won't let me talk about the effects of sweet dreams, but I will listen to him!"
"Sweet Dream? Is it an alchemy prop?" The person who asked the question was Angel. He always felt that when Xiaobao described "Sweet Dream", he seemed to be talking about a special prop rather than an ability.
But to say that this is an alchemy tool... Angel was very confused, because under the gaze of the alchemy eye, the material of the picture frame was clearly visible.
It is a wood known to Angel, and it is not an extraordinary material.
Since it's not an extraordinary item, why does Dumu Xiaobao's tone sound so like describing some kind of alchemy item?
Dumu Xiaobao continued to hum: "This is not Qingkong Poetry Room's question, I won't answer it!"
The question Doakes asked just now has nothing to do with Qingkong Poetry Room... Angel cursed in his heart, but still said patiently: "Why don't you ask Erbao? Maybe Erbao agrees with your answer?"
Dumu Xiaobao did not reply, but closed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
A few seconds later, Xiaobao opened his big cartoon-style eyes on the water: "Brother agrees that I can explain sweet dreams to you, but I can't tell you the effect of sweet dreams."
After finishing speaking, Xiaobao said to himself: "How to explain this? It's so annoying to talk about sweet dreams but not to mention the effects!"
"How about I ask you?" Angel: "There is no mantra book here. You can choose to answer or remain silent."
The book of mantras was taken away by the wise Lord when he left.
Everyone has no objection to this, and Xiaobao himself is not in the contract of the book of mantras, so it is meaningless even if he is shrouded in the book of mantras. At most, the effect of "answering all questions" can still work. But Xiaobao can completely answer questions that are not asked.
Or just lie.
Also, Xiaobao's situation is very special. When he lies... everyone can actually hear it, so there is no need for a mantra book to restrain him.
"Okay, please hurry up and finish asking me early so that I can go to my mother to complain."
"Complain? Complain against us?"
"If you bully me, I will file a lawsuit against you. But not yet. I will file a lawsuit against Brother Erbao later. He actually ignored me before."
Everyone listened to Xiaobao's ramble, but they all had nothing to say.
It is clear that Erbao has just finished talking to Xiaobao, and now Xiaobao is going to sue Erbao for ignoring him. What kind of brotherly love is this?
"Anyway, hurry up!" Xiaobao muttered for a long time and then said loudly to Angel.
"Well, the first question I just asked is, is Sweet Dream an alchemy tool?"
Xiaobao: "No."
Angel: "Then what is it? An ability? A talent?"
Xiaobao thought for a while: "None of them. In the words of you humans, sweet dreams should be regarded as mysterious things."
A mysterious thing?! Everyone was previously wondering why Angel couldn’t forget the sweet dream, but now everyone’s eyes are bright... This is a mysterious thing!
But the next second, everyone remembered what Xiaobao said before, that sweet dreams themselves cannot be said to have effects. This made everyone a little crazy. They knew that there was a mysterious thing in front of them, but they didn't know its effects. That kind of mentality
The itching feeling is really uncomfortable.
"Sweet dreams are mysterious things..." Angel narrowed his eyes and continued to ask: "Then its body is this picture frame?"
Xiaobao: "Of course not. Sweet dreams have no identity, they are just a dream."
Perhaps seeing that everyone did not understand, Xiaobao thought for a while and continued: "The Lord Master once said that the predecessor of Sweet Dreams was a fragment of a blank dream floating in the sea of empty mirrors. By chance,
It contains a large number of beautiful dreams, and with the help of the right time and place, it transformed into a mysterious thing...a mysterious dream."
"It has no real body. The reason why it was able to be taken in by Lord Master was thanks to the help of a white-haired elder sister with strange eyes. Now, it is stored in a special mirror world."
"It doesn't matter that Lord Master enters through this frame. In fact, the frame is not important. Lord Master can enter from any mirror."
Others may not understand it yet, but Angel probably does.
This is actually a mysterious thing in an abstract sense.
In Crowley's records, Angel saw many similar mysterious objects. For example, the disordered object "germination" can actually be regarded as a mysterious object in an abstract sense, because there is no need to enter the bud.
Even if you find its true identity, no one can find its true identity. You only need to pronounce the corresponding characters correctly to enter the budding rhythm of disorder.
There is also "Heartbeat of the Lonely Clown", its effect is that all creatures who hear the heart sound will dance to it. At first glance, it seems that the heart is a mysterious thing, but in fact it is not, the heartbeat is the core. And the heartbeat is
Mysterious things, it also counts in an abstract sense.
In addition, "Growth Ray", "Old Dream", and "Echo" can all fall into this category.

Rather than the form of its existence, Angel was more concerned about the process of its birth that Xiaobao said.
Is the birth process mentioned by the wise master true, or is it made up at will to deceive Xiaobao? If it is true, can the key to the birth of the mysterious thing be found from it?
"How could the wise master know so clearly the birth process of Sweet Dream? Did he see it with his own eyes?" Angel thought for a while and asked the question in his heart.
"Lord Master said it was this process, this is the process. Why do you have objections?" Dumu Xiaobao didn't understand why Angel asked this. In its memory, the wise master almost never told lies. Since the wise man
If the master says this, then the process must be like this.
On the contrary, it was the suspicion of Angel and others that made Dumu Xiaobao feel a little uncomfortable.
Angel also heard the disgust in Xiaobao's tone, thought for a while, and added: "I just feel a little emotional, why am I not so lucky to be able to witness the birth of sweet dreams like the wise master."
Hearing Angel express his admiration for the wise master, Dumu Xiaobao immediately put away his displeasure and hummed: "Master master is so great, how can you compare to him?"
Angel smiled and nodded, as if he agreed.
After confirming that Xiaobao's mood became positive again, Angel continued to ask: "Is this sweet dream related to dreaming?"
Xiaobao was about to answer, but suddenly he seemed to realize something: "Huh, I won't tell you."
Angel: "I understand if you don't tell me. But, can I guess its mechanism?"
Xiaobao: "Whatever you want, I won't say anything anyway."
Angel: "Sweet dreams can make people fall into deep sleep?"
Xiaobao didn't answer, but Angel sensed "disapproval" from Xiaobao's emotion through super-perception.
If this emotion were placed in other circumstances, it would basically mean that Angel had guessed wrong. But placed in the current situation, it doesn't mean anything.
Because the wise master entered the frame in front of them, and then showed a sleeping posture in the frame, this basically clearly told them that sweet dreams will make people fall asleep. Therefore, it is normal for Xiaobao to express disapproval.
Angel naturally understood that he asked this question first to let Xiaobao relax so that he could better perceive Xiaobao's emotional ups and downs.
"When you fall into a deep sleep, sweet dreams will exert the effect of a mysterious thing." Angele paused: "The effect may be that there will be some positive benefits while dreaming?"
Xiaobao's mood fluctuated slightly, but this ups and downs were more of doubts. The source of doubts started when Angel said "positive income".
Angel also felt strange about Xiaobao's doubts. He was a little confused. Does this mean that he said something wrong?
While Angel was thinking, Xiaobao said, "Well, what is positive income?"
Angel: "..."
He was thinking deeply about what Xiaobao was wondering about and whether he had said it wrong. As a result, Xiaobao didn't understand the meaning of the words Angel said at all.
"Positive benefits are positive effects."
Xiaobao: "Isn't this nonsense? Could it be that Master Domination would allow himself to sleep even if it has negative effects?...Okay, okay, I understand, I won't say it anymore."
In the first sentence, Xiaobao was talking to Angel, but in the latter sentence, Xiaobao was silent for a moment, obviously talking to Erbao. Most likely, Erbao asked him not to continue talking.
Of course, what Angel asked was not nonsense, because things like mysterious things may not necessarily bring benefits, whether good or bad.
Its effect is actually more of an "inverse rule", that is, an effect that cannot be identified by logic.
Just like the "heartbeat of a lonely clown", dancing to the sound of your heartbeat, is this a positive or negative effect? Neither, it just makes you unable to control your desire to dance. Whether you are a mortal or a legend, in
There will be singing and dancing during the heartbeat. When a single player enters the rhythm of the heartbeat, without the help of teammates or outsiders, the effect is basically unsolvable.
Xiaobao's understanding of mysterious things is obviously incomplete, so according to what he said, it is impossible for Lord Dominator to give him negative effects, which makes sense.
Xiaobao himself didn't feel that he had provided any information, but in fact the information it gave was quite useful.
This is a mysterious object that can give the user a positive effect, which is extremely rare among mysterious objects.
"Mysterious objects may not always have positive effects." Angel followed Xiaobao's words and said: "Generally speaking, mysterious objects will have some negative effects."
Angel originally wanted to lure Xiaobao into asking questions, but Xiaobao was not fooled and kept humming but didn't speak.
Angel could only continue talking to himself: "For example, I once heard about a mysterious thing. It is an inconspicuous cabin. As long as you live in this cabin, you will live forever.
.”
When it came to immortality, Xiaobao didn't feel much at all, because for a "child", this word was not very attractive. But everyone else present turned their attention to Angel.
"There really is such a mysterious thing, are you lying?" Doakes asked.
Angel: "Yes."
"So you can really live forever?" Doakes asked with bright eyes.
Angel nodded again.
Doakes's eyes brightened even more, but just when he wanted to ask for further information about this wooden house, something suddenly stirred in his heart: "You just said that mysterious things generally have negative effects, so what are the negative effects of this wooden house?"
?”
Angel did not hide anything and said bluntly: "You can't leave. As long as you stay in this cabin, you will never grow old or die. But once you step out of the cabin, you will die instantly."
Doakes: "...I think only Vai can bear this kind of immortality."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! 'Otaku' Vai said dissatisfied: "It's not like I will never go out. If I don't go out, how can I go to your shabby bar?"
?”
Angel ignored the dispute between Doakes and Vai, but continued to talk about the negative effects of the mysterious object: "However, it is not impossible to remove the negative effects, and the method of removing them is actually in the name of this wooden house.
.”
Angel's narration method, coupled with the specially designed suspense, not only made everyone look over with confusion, but even Xiaobao's big eyes were full of curiosity.
"The name of this wooden house is - the lonely wooden house."
When Angel said these words, Kael whispered: "A lonely... wooden house? The wooden house is not a living thing, how can it be lonely?"
Kael's soliloquy seemed to remind everyone.
Doakes: "Could it be that the wooden house is lonely and needs someone to accompany it, so the people who accompany it will live forever?"
Angel smiled and looked at Doakes, gesturing for him to continue.
Doakes: "And once the person accompanying the cabin leaves, the cabin becomes lonely again, so it punishes the betrayer by killing him immediately?"
"You said that the way to eliminate sudden death is in the name of this wooden house. The most conspicuous thing in the name of the wooden house is undoubtedly 'loneliness'. So by making it no longer lonely, will it be able to eliminate sudden death?"
Doakes continued to think according to this logic: "Think about it this way, as long as there is another person to accompany the lonely wooden house instead of the existing one, then the wooden house will not be lonely, and it will not die suddenly if you leave?"
Angel clapped his hands and gave Doakes a 'like': "The explanation is wonderful, and the answer is exactly what you said. As long as someone can replace the people in the wooden house, the people in the wooden house will be safe after leaving.
"
"However, the Lonely Wooden House will not always exist in one place, and its appearance will change depending on where it goes. Therefore, the first person who steps into the Lonely Wooden House will basically step in accidentally. Then, he will
How do you get someone else to take his place?"
"Deceive. Use words to deceive passers-by, use magic to deceive friends."
"So, if one day any of you receives a flight message from a friend asking you to go to a certain place, and that place is a wooden house, then you should be careful, maybe you will be deceived."
When everyone was lost in thought, Angel changed the subject: "Then again, the reason I gave this example just now is to say that it is normal for mysterious objects to have negative effects, but most of them also have ways to remove the negative effects."
"Sweet dreams may not always have positive effects. They may also have negative effects."
Angel looked at Xiaobao: "Based on the name of the mysterious thing, Sweet Dream must be a sweet dream, and sweet dreams are the easiest to indulge in, and even make people unwilling to wake up. Will there be any negative effects of this sweet dream?
In fact, once you fall into a dream, you cannot wake up on your own?"
