Chapter 521 Different Ways of Escape
The offerings to open the door have been gathered. The owner of the house had kept these offerings before, but he did not dare to leave the manor with his real body. Now the offerings are scattered among the testers, and the owner of the house has also obtained a new body.

They rushed to East Lake from different directions in the heavy snow.

The pine tree was pushed aside by the giant puppet, and its body was covered with snow and fallen leaves. Its huge button eyes looked at Gao Ming with great oppression: "Because I was deceived by the dirty thing behind the door, I was dismembered and hidden in the woods. If I knew that you were also deceiving me, I would cut you into more parts and hide them in the holes of every tree."

"The testers can't open the iron guardrail on the fourth floor. There are no tools in the manor. If they want to enter the fourth floor, they can only let your mother out." Gao Ming thought a lot when handing the photo to Bai Huang: "As for your brother, don't worry about it. This is his nightmare. Although his memory and obsession are imprisoned by the owner of the house, as long as the dirty thing behind the door wants to escape the dream, it will definitely find a way to sacrifice your brother in East Lake. He will definitely take the missing part of your brother out of the manor."

"This nightmare is not complicated. The most important point is to think clearly that the real door is Donghu Lake." The owner of the house looked very strange when he first mentioned Donghu Lake. Later, the little girl said that her father often went to Donghu Lake to fish by boat, but the "fish meat" her mother ate was all the "dirty stuff" obtained from behind the door.

"We have to hurry. Others have different goals than us." Gao Ming was not so much sitting on the puppet as being taken hostage by it, tied to its shoulders. The puppet was walking through the dense forest, and he had to protect his face and neck, careful not to be scratched by tree branches. "The dirty thing behind the door possessed the outsider and wanted to use the door to escape. Bai Huang and your brother are making some kind of deal, wanting to fall into a deeper nightmare and perish forever. Only the two of us sincerely hope that your brother and the testers can be freed."

"Stop talking nonsense. I always feel that you are not a good person. I can feel the indifference in your bones and the strong smell of blood in the depths of your soul." The puppet sister has never looked down on Gao Ming. She has always treated Gao Ming as a monster similar to herself. This also made Gao Ming speechless and he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

The snowflakes became turbid, and the middle-level nightmare seemed to be covered with a layer of white mist, and the puppet's body was also stained with scarlet spots.

"The dream is a little different." The puppet raised its huge head and stopped talking to Gao Ming. He was full of worries and quickened his pace.

After climbing over the mountains, Gao Ming and Bugou looked down and saw the East Lake through the dense forest.

The East Lake in the dark night is like most people in the world who are troubled by nightmares. It appears calm on the surface, but beneath the thick layer of ice lies an unfathomable darkness. Only by entering their hearts can you truly understand their fear.

"There are people on the ice! At the port!" The puppet's voice was filled with anxiety. She already knew what happened in the manor through Gao Ming's narration, and the owner of the house had possessed other people.

Not caring about the scratches on her body from the branches, the cloth idol rushed down the hillside in the out-of-control vehicle. Her huge body was covered with cuts and rotten cotton wool flowed out of it, making her look extremely miserable.

The snow in the dense forest was scattered, and the noise made by the puppet also attracted the attention of the man at the port. He moved very quickly, drilled through the already dilapidated boat on the shore, and jumped onto the only intact wooden boat.

Putting up the "living sail" and hanging the "dream catcher", the man prepared in advance a paddle with the word "forgetfulness" engraved on it.

"Money coming in?"

As the distance got closer, Gao Ming could see the other person's appearance clearly.

The wooden boat had already left the port, but the lake was frozen, so Qian Jin had to use a wooden paddle to break the ice before he could move forward. The owner of the house must have started to execute his plan from the moment he fainted, much faster than Gao Ming and the others.

By the time the puppet and Gao Ming arrived at the port, the canoe had already rowed far away.

"Not chasing them anymore?" Gao Ming pointed at the lake and said, "The ice looks pretty thick. Let's just walk on it and chase them."

The puppet did not answer Gao Ming's question, but stretched out his hand towards the lake. Almost instantly, a human face emerged from under the ice. When he blinked again, the face turned into a slender black fish.

"They are all waiting to eat me. If there is only one fish, it would be fine, but once I fall into the lake, the fish will swarm in." The doll was a little hesitant. She had been in awe of East Lake since she was a child, which was also related to the education her grandfather gave her.

"If we don't chase them now, it might be too late." Gao Ming broke free from the puppet. While he was still observing which way would be safer to go, a figure emerged from the other side of the dense forest and leaped onto the ice at an extremely fast speed without any hesitation or fear.

This scene stunned Gao Ming and the puppet. It took them a few seconds to show an expression of surprise, and then fear began to spread in their hearts.

With her skinny fingers resting on the branches, the crazy mother appeared by the lake like a wild beast, her red dress dragging on the ground. Her body was covered with terrible patterns like fish scales, and she let out a creepy roar from her mouth.

"It took quite a while to lure you here." Bai Huang stood on the ice, looking very miserable. Her wounds were getting worse. If she couldn't leave the nightmare in a short time, she would most likely die here.

Turning his head and smiling at Gao Ming, Bai Huang's eyes were quickly attracted by the puppet: "Yes, I knew you were smarter than them. You are worthy of being someone who escaped from the deep nightmare."

"Mom..." The puppet shook its huge body. She had never dared to meet her family in her current appearance. But when she saw her mother's current appearance, her torn heart was very painful. You know, the needle and thread that sewed her together were all used by her mother before. She relied on her mother the most.

The woman in red also noticed the doll. Her crazy expression actually eased a little. Her cloudy eyes kept rolling as if she was struggling.

"The letter represents obsession, the family photo is memory, and the corpse symbolizes the lost life of the dream owner. Only by sacrificing these three items can we wake up the dream owner and make him open the door!" Bai Huang shouted to Gao Ming: "The corpse is now in the hands of the owner of the house. That bastard wanted to escape alone and bury us all here."

"Last night I sacrificed a big fish to the memory of the owner of the dream, and learned one thing from him. The owner of the house is the dirty thing that ran out from behind the door. It is different from us and has its own way of opening the door! It escaped with the corpse just to trap us to death in the dream, so that when it escapes from the dream cage, it can perfectly replace the tester, and no one will know its secret anymore!"

Gao Ming originally thought that there was no bridge between dreams and reality. How could something in a dream enter reality? Until he knew the existence of the door, all these dream tests were proving one thing to him: what he experienced during his coma might not just be a dream.
