Hey!Your patron saint of the underworld has been revealed!

Chapter 42 Lucid sleepy dream

Qiu Zhuo walked to his room and locked the door with a snap.

Then, he raised his head and looked at Shi Erruo.

Shi Erruo asked tentatively: "Can you see me?"

Qiu Zhuo nodded and said: "I know that I am trapped in a dream. Logically speaking, I should be able to escape from the dream once I wake up, but I can't!"

"Perhaps..." Shi Erruo guessed, "Do you have any other requests?"

She looked Qiu Zhuo up and down. He was dressed like a junior high school student. He had thick black hair on his head, red lips, white teeth, long eyes and a high nose, and he also had a childish look. It was really shocking. One can't help but reach out and grab a handful.

So, she really sucked it up.

Qiu Zhuo was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but ask: "Aren't we talking about business?"

"It doesn't matter, it's two different things." Shi Erruo said while continuing to pick it up, "You were quite cute when you had hair when you were a child."

Qiu Zhuo turned his head sideways and freed his head from Shi Erruo's hand. He was now much shorter than Shi Erruo and needed to hold his head high to see people.

Qiu Zhuo recalled: "I remember that as soon as I entered the darkness, I was attacked by a ghost. How did you find me?"

"It's the ghost you let go. It wants me to help him pull out the silver needle. As a reward, he will take me to the cave of Menggui." Shi Erruo said, "Don't worry about this for now. Let's think about what to do. Let you come out of your dream."

"When I first entered your dream, I met you when you were younger. You seemed to have not woken up at that time."

"What?" Qiu Zhuo asked with some confusion, "When I was younger? But as soon as I entered the dream, I was the age I am now."

"Really?" Shi Erruo thought about it for a moment and gestured with his hand to indicate the height, "Probably, this high."

Shi Erruo guessed: "Perhaps, if we can go back to your age, we can find a way to get out of the dream, because the dreams of Menggui are intermittent and fragmented memories, so it may be that you are awake only in the current fragment. , there are no other fragments. As long as we go to all the fragments of your memories and awaken you at different ages, we can escape from the dream."

"But..." Shi Erruo frowned, "How to enter the memory fragments of your past age?"

Qiu Zhuo said: "Dreams require a medium. Any medium related to past memories can induce me to return to the past scenes."

Shi Erruo suddenly had an idea, "For example... photos of you when you were a child?"

"Yes." Qiu Zhuo agreed, "Photos do contain almost all memory fragments from the past, but I don't know where our family's photo album has gone."

"Ah? Aren't these things just sitting on the shelf collecting dust?" Shi Erruo didn't know what Qiu Zhuo's family was like, but their home was like this, and they hadn't taken many photos since their mother's death.

Qiu Zhuo said: "In my memory, it seems that since they quarreled, the family photo has been put away. I don't know when. Could it be burned or lost?"

Shi Erruo naturally knew who Qiu Zhuo was talking about. She shook her head, "Probably not. Let's try to find out."

After Qiu Zhuo's parents went out, they began to search everywhere in the house, but they searched for a long time with no results.

A thin layer of sweat broke out on Qiu Zhuo's forehead, "I have searched all the places where my mother would hide things, and it seems that they were really lost."

Shi Erruo found a stool and sat down and asked, "How are you sure that your mother hid it? Maybe it was your father who hid it?"

Qiu Zhuo shook his head, "My dad wouldn't hide something like this. This is not something he would do at all."

Shi Erruo said, "I've already looked for it. Let's go and see where your dad will put the things."

Qiu Zhuo thought for a moment before saying, "He doesn't hide it, he just puts it in the safe."

"Then do you know the password to his safe?"

"do not know."

"Try it."

Qiu Zhuo shook his head.If Shi'er knew that he had relapsed into his old habit, opening someone else's safe was something that went against his Buddhist heart, and he would not do it, even if the safe belonged to his father.

Moreover, Shi Erruo also knew that no reason could shake his decision.

"I really don't know, and I don't want to try. We can find other things to use as media, although it will take a long time to collect them."

Shi Erruo rolled her eyes. She didn't believe that Qiu Zhuo didn't know that the longer he stayed in a dream, the less likely he was to wake up.

To be honest, she really wanted to hit him and then threaten him to look good if he didn't try the password.

But Shi Erruo knew that violent pressure meant nothing to him.

She was not sure whether the simulation exercise could also interrupt mental control, including dreams. If the simulation scene was not perfect, Qiu Zhuo would probably be trapped in the dream forever.

Of course, the dream may indeed end after the exercise is interrupted.

But she didn't want to gamble and couldn't gamble.

Damn it, why do I owe him so many favors?
Shi Erruo couldn't help cursing in his heart, he couldn't just let go now!

And I secretly muttered in my heart that I must stay away from such sanctimonious monks and nuns in the future, otherwise troubles will cling to me silently like spider webs.

"Hmph! If you don't try, I'll look for it myself. I won't believe that I can't find it!"

Shi Erruo quickly started searching the room. She was looking for one thing: a calendar.

Soon, Shi Erruo found the calendar on a shelf, and she quickly rummaged through it.

If your guess is correct, many people have lunar birthdays, and they will mark their birthdays this year in advance.

After browsing for a while, Shi Erruo found Qiu Zhuo's birthday, which was the eighth day of the fourth lunar month.

Qiu Zhuo saw Shi Erruo's actions from the side and roughly understood her plan.

He said: "My father probably wouldn't use my birthday as a password."

Shi Erruo shrugged, "It's hard to say."

Later, Shi Erruo went to the safe to try and entered "0408".

"beep--!"

The red light of the password lock lights up, [If you enter the wrong password, you have two more chances. After the third wrong input, the password box will be locked. 】

If it is wrong, it is probably not the lunar calendar, but the solar calendar date of birth, which is 0511.

try again.

Shi Erruo pressed the three numbers "051", then took a deep breath and pressed "1" again.

The red device did not sound, and the door lock made a "click" sound.

It's on!
Shi Erruo glanced at Qiu Zhuo proudly, his eyes seeming to say "Look, am I awesome?"

After opening the safe, there was actually a photo album hidden inside.

However, in addition to the photo album, there was another unexpected gain. She caught a glimpse of a book in the bottom corner of the safe.

If I guessed correctly, it should be a diary.
