Chapter 2856 Terrible Negative Effects
The question of the wise master did not start with Orao, as he had asked before, but from the experience of Angel and others.
The first thing to be asked was what the abnormal fluctuations were in the slow corridor.
Angel glanced at Adanis who was high up, and seeing that she did not react, he said: "The monster we encountered in that corridor was a flower-holding infant spirit from another world."
Angel detailed the appearance characteristics and ability characteristics of the flower-holding infant spirit.
When the wise master heard about the abilities of weaving webs and red wax, he also showed a look of surprise. One absorbs energy and the other can make people crazy. They are not aimed at the actual flesh, but at the thinking space and the spiritual sea. Just listening to them is not easy to deal with.
The wise master asked curiously: "How did you deal with this flower-holding infant spirit?"
"No." Angel scratched his head and showed a lucky look: "It was quite well-behaved and did not attack us."
Didn't attack Angel and others?
The wise master believed it, because according to his observation, Angel and the Black Earl's progress was not affected at all, and they were almost smooth all the way to the door of the Clear Sky Poetry Room.
But is the truth really as Angel said? Just brushed it off with such a sentence?
The wise master didn't believe it. He couldn't help but look up at Adanis, trying to see the clues in Adanis's eyes... After all, the flower-holding infant spirit must have been sent by Adanis, and she must know the inside story.
Maybe it's not that the flower-holding infant spirit is "well-behaved" at all, but that something has changed in the Clear Sky Poetry Room, so Adanis has no flaws to take care of the infant spirit. And the infant spirit itself is also a low IQ existence. Without Adanis's order, it is estimated that Angel and others will be let go?
Facing the questioning eyes of the wise master, Adanis was silent for a moment and said: "What he said so far is the truth."
After speaking, Adanis lowered her eyebrows and stopped talking.
The wise master can confirm that Adanis did not lie, but he can also be sure that there is definitely something behind this matter. Moreover, from Adanis's silence and her deliberate avoidance of Angel's eyes, the wise master can't help but have a bold guess in his heart:
- Could it be that Adanis doesn't know what happened?
On the surface, perhaps it is really as Angel said, the flower-holding infant spirit behaved very well and did not move at all. This is also what Adanis saw, so she said that this is the truth, and there is no problem.
But the truth is sometimes like a pinhole in a wetland. On the surface, it doesn't seem to be a big deal, and it may even be ignored if you don't pay attention. But inside, it may be connected to a huge underground insect kingdom.
And what Angel said is this "pinhole connecting the insect kingdom to the outside world"?
He only described the small hole on the surface, and the tangled roots, the traffic, and the layers of underground insect kingdoms hidden deep below the small hole were all whitewashed by his words?
Even Adanis didn't know the specific reason.
As soon as this guess came out, it quickly occupied the high ground of the wise master's thinking.
In fact, this guess is very bold. With the past thinking of the wise master, he would not suddenly take such a big step and think directly about such a complicated situation.
But he knew Adanis too well. Adanis's expression was just like a writing board. Even if she kept a cold look, her mind was completely projected on this writing board.
Adanis was also confused, but she didn't want to show it in front of the wise master, so she followed Angel's caliber and only talked about the surface facts without talking about the internal truth.
This is why the wise master dared to make bold guesses.
However, even if the wise master had a guess, he didn't continue to ask.
Because from all the signs, it can be seen that Angel will not answer the truth of this question. Otherwise, how could Adanis also show doubts?
Even if the wise master feels that his relationship with Angel may be one step closer than Adanis, but because it is one step closer, the wise master needs to consider Angel's opinion more.
He was not prepared to be hostile to Angel, and in the future he hoped to establish a good relationship with Angel and the Savage Cave behind him through the relationship with the Wood Spirit.
The Wise Lord had such considerations, so he would naturally not touch Angel's bottom line.
In addition, Angel himself was full of fog, and a little more fog was not a big deal.
Thinking of this, the Wise Lord no longer entangled with this issue, but began to ask new questions.
"As far as I know, the Clear Sky Poetry Room will only allow descendants of Noah's bloodline to enter, why did all of you go in?"
This question slightly involved Augustine, and Angel certainly could not mention Augustine. However, Orao actually had some decision-making power, so Angel's answer focused on Orao.
However, Angel's answer also triggered another doubt of the Wise Lord. This doubt was also what the Wise Lord had been thinking about a long time ago: "Why does Orao value you... or, value you?"
Angel's answer was still superficial. He briefly recounted the story of the first encounter between Jingjitai and Orao, and emphasized that he did not know Orao's identity at that time.
This showed that Orao already valued him at that time.
But why Orao valued him was vaguely mentioned by Angle.
The wise master also expected this. Angel's answer would definitely contain some concealment, and what he needed to do was to infer the hidden truth from the known answers.
In terms of speculation, Angel actually cooperated with him. Of course, the premise is that as long as Angel himself is not involved.
Therefore, the wise master slowly inferred some things from Angel's answer.
It was Angel who affected the great changes in the Qingkong Poetry Room, but not only Angel. There is also a key figure in this.
This key figure is not the person present. It is a "mysterious man" who only appeared in the Qingkong Poetry Room.
As for who the "mysterious man" is, the wise master is constantly testing and questioning, trying to guess his identity...
...
The whole question-and-answer process lasted about twenty minutes.
The time for questioning and answering may not exceed five minutes, and the wise master is thinking more.
In the whole question-and-answer process, at the beginning, the wise master asked questions, and Angel basically answered them, even if a lot of what he said was nonsense, but at least he answered them.
But as the wise master discovered the existence of the "mysterious man", the questioning became more in-depth, and focused on details and personal senses, and Angel began to talk about other things frequently.
When Angel avoided, Adanis also began to intervene constantly, saying that she could not answer many questions.
When it came to the second half of the question-and-answer process, Angel directly replaced the answer with silence. The wise master knew that this should be the limit.
The wise master stopped very tactfully and thanked Angel softly.
The wise master's thanks were not only for Angel's answer, but also for letting Adanis enter this "game".
Because of Angel's show of goodwill, Adanis entered the game.
And every time Adanis stopped, she provided the wise master with a lot of useful information.
Even though the wise master still could not restore all the situations in the clear sky poetry room at this time, and there were still many puzzles that had not been solved, he already had a general idea in his mind.
Especially after Adanis joined, many ideas that the wise master did not dare to think of became bolder and bolder because of Adanis's expression, eyes, and tone of voice, and the logic that was not coherent at the beginning gradually became self-consistent.
Especially the identity of the "mysterious man", Angel did not dare to say it, but gave the wise master a lot of detailed information, and with Adanis's "assistance", he had a rough idea in his mind.
Angel's goodwill was not in vain, even if his answer was limited, the final result was gratifying.
So, the wise master did not hesitate to thank him.
...
After the short question and answer session, the wise master temporarily suppressed his deep thinking about the "mysterious man" and said to Angel: "Sweet Dream is in my secret room. Do you plan to borrow it now or wait a while?"
Since he promised to lend the sweet dream to Angel for a look, he would naturally not break his promise.
Besides, it was just a loan, not a transaction, so the wise master would not feel bad.
Angel said without hesitation: "Now."
The reason why he wanted to borrow Sweet Dreams was simple. He just wanted to try whether Sweet Dreams could be affected by the Dream Conch.
If it could, Sweet Dreams might become the first mysterious thing to be pulled into the Dream Wilderness.
The speed of doing this experiment was actually very fast, and there was no need to do too much preliminary preparation, so Angel was not prepared to delay. Finishing it earlier would also help to resolve a matter earlier.
"Okay." The Wise Lord stood up: "Please follow me."
The others stayed in the hall, and Angel followed the Wise Lord into the secret room they had stayed in before, or... the lounge.
Angel originally thought that the Wise Lord would continue to ask some questions when no one was around.
But the Wise Lord did not do so.
Although he was still talking, what he said had nothing to do with the Clear Sky Poetry Room, but focused on Sweet Dreams.
Previously, the Wise Lord and Angel had talked a lot about Sweet Dreams, from its birth to how it came into the hands of the Wise Lord, the Wise Lord did not hide anything.
The only thing he didn't say was where Sweet Dreams was now and what the real effect of Sweet Dreams was.
And now, what the Wise Lord and Angel talked about was the effect of Sweet Dreams.
"You have guessed the negative effects of sweet dreams before, and it is true. Once you fall into a sweet dream, you cannot wake up without someone waking you up."
"However, the negative effects of sweet dreams are more than that."
Angel frowned: "Are there other negative effects?"
The wise master nodded: "Sweet dreams are beautiful dreams. On weekdays, beautiful dreams are easy to wake up, but beautiful dreams in sweet dreams are difficult to wake up."
"This difficulty in waking up leads to three negative effects."
"The first one is what you said, you need someone to wake you up, and you can't wake up by yourself."
"The second one is that if you sleep in a sweet dream for more than a day, even if someone calls you, you can't wake up."
"However, this negative effect is just my personal judgment. Because I have tried all methods, but I can't wake up the witch ghost who has slept for more than a day."
"And you, or others, whether there is a way to wake it up, then I don't know."
In short, this negative effect is still in doubt. There may be other ways to wake up the sleeping person, but the wise master does not know what the specific method is.
Regardless of whether there is a way to wake up a person who has been sleeping for a day, just from this negative effect, it is actually quite a test of human nature.
Because you use Sweet Dreams, you must find someone to wake you up, and if this person has a little bit of evil thoughts, you may have to fall into eternal sleep.
Moreover, even if you think you can trust someone, you may not really trust him.
People's hearts are fickle.
This is the same as the "Lonely Wooden House". If the person trapped in this wooden house wants to leave, he can only fool other people to accompany the wooden house instead of himself. And who is the easiest to fool? Naturally, fool friends. The closer the friend, the more likely he will be fooled.
And in the lonely wooden house, at least you can still be awake to witness everything, but the sweet dream is not the same. Once you fall asleep, you don't know what happened in reality.
Even if you are betrayed by a friend, you don't know.
Therefore, the second negative effect of Sweet Dreams is actually quite a test of human nature.
However, the second negative effect can be solved after all, and the third negative effect is actually more terrible, because -
"The third negative effect is... addiction."
A sweet dream is like poison, which will make you forget all your troubles and just want to sink into the sweet dream.
If you become addicted to it, even if you know that the sweet dream is poison, you are willing to rush to it, and would rather sink than wake up.
And sweet dreams can make people addicted.
"Generally speaking, ordinary people may become addicted after using it once or twice." The wise master: "For extraordinary people, it depends on your self-control. The stronger your self-control, the greater your resistance, and the more times you can use Sweet Dreams."
Angel: "How many times has the wise master used it so far?"
Wise master: "About more than thirty times... At present, I am not addicted, but every time I use it, its temptation becomes greater. Maybe after a hundred times, I will become addicted. Or maybe I can't hold on even a hundred times."
"And once you become addicted, you will definitely go down a road of no return. Even if someone is watching you every day, you will inevitably sleep for more than a day, which means that addiction means eternal sleep."
Seeing Angel's serious expression and even frowning, the wise master couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder and comforted him: "But you don't have to worry too much. In your case, you will definitely not become addicted after using it once or twice."
