Barrier of Light

"This door..."

Gu Shen has already come into contact with Hongmen.

I didn't dare to touch the red door before because I was afraid of unknown things that were beyond my control.

While being treated at the Sleeping Whisperer Clinic, when he thought that the other party was a famous lady... Gu Shen warned himself to be cautious, but not to cause any trouble.

After all, there is a mad dog tied outside the door.

Of course, it was the same this time... Song Ci was guarding outside the old house, and Gu Shen felt very at ease.

The word "mad dog" is a very high compliment for this guy.

now.

The bloody light that wrapped around the red door, as well as the talismans, wrapped around him, slowly swirling and unraveling... It was not as sharp and sharp as imagined, but there was a feeling of warm current flowing directly to the spirit.

After actually touching this red door, Gu Shen felt at ease...

"No 'extraordinary event' occurred as imagined."

Gu Shen felt that the characters wrapped around him seemed to be scanning for something...

Hongmen conveyed a spiritual warmth to himself.

After flowing, return again.

It's like an...information exchange?

"Is this door scanning me?"

Gu Shen vaguely felt the true meaning of these ancient characters wrapped around him. The condition for opening this red door should be to meet the right person.

And the feeling of attraction towards me...could it be said...

Before Gu Shen could think about it, the ancient characters that had been swept out by the red gate were slowly retracted, and the troops were withdrawn.

"Scan...is over?"

Gu Shen exerted slight force on his palms.

That red door is indestructible... not shaken by it at all.

Gu Shen was a little embarrassed.

I have to guard against all kinds of feelings. If I am guarded against loneliness, I have no way to open this door...

But the feeling of Blazing Fire had not gone wrong yet. Gu Shen was willing to believe that the original feeling of calling did not arise out of thin air, but he did not push the red door open, and he no longer forced it.

…

…

Under the banyan tree, the two slowly returned to normal.

"Madam... I checked your dream, there is nothing strange..."

Gu Shen took out a long breath and said seriously: "It's probably because you're overworked. Just clear your mind before going to bed."

Lu Nanzhi woke up from her dream state.

She pressed her hands on the marble tabletop, stared at Gu Shen, her brows furrowed, and after a long time she slowly asked: "Did you... see that red door in my dream?"

Gu Shen's heart skipped a beat.

Sure enough... the act of touching the red door was still a bit reckless. Has he been discovered?

He sighed helplessly and said cautiously: "Yes... I saw a red door at the end of your dream."

"You touched it?"

"Yes, but..." Gu Shen immediately explained: "You may not believe it, but in fact it is more like it took the initiative to touch me... but I can guarantee that I did not push it away."

"Why don't you push away?"

Lu Nanzhi's rhetorical question made Gu Shen stunned.

Why not push away?

"Actually, I tried it... the door was very thick and couldn't be pushed open, and those weird characters seemed to be scanning me..." Gu Shen scratched his head and said, "In short, you can rest assured that the door is not open."

Every door in the dream has a corresponding spiritual lock.

Although he didn't know what kind of secrets were sealed in the iron doors on both sides of the corridor, Gu Shen guessed that the red door at the end was the most important, and the lady didn't want anyone to know about it the most.

"The door didn't open..."

The lady, who was supporting the marble tabletop with both hands, fell into an abnormally confused state. For many years, no outsider had seen her look so confused.

Lu Nanzhi murmured unconsciously: "He saw the door...and touched the door...but the door...didn't open..."

She couldn't understand it anymore.

031 told himself very confidently that Gu Shen was the secret key.

That's why she decided to give it a try... The Guwen Society has reached a critical moment of life and death, and there is nothing more important than finding the secret key to open the red door.

But look at it now.

I found the secret key myself, but I couldn’t find it...

Gu Shen could see the red door in his dream and even touch it, but he couldn't open it.

"……lady?"

Looking at Lu Nanzhi who was in a daze, Gu Shen couldn't help but frown. He asked in a low voice: "Can you please tell me... what is that red door?"

Lu Nanzhi came to her senses.

She watched Gu Shen get entangled... If it was confirmed that this young man was the secret key that he had worked so hard to find, then there would be no need to hide the secrets about herself and the Ancient Literature Society today.

But now...

"Ding dong——"

The familiar voice of mail delivery rang out.

It's still a familiar ID.

There is still the familiar five-second countdown for automatic deletion.

This is the second email from 031.

The content contains clear warnings and reminders.

"Whether the door is open or not... now is not the time to tell the truth about the secret key."

Lu Nanzhi calmed down.

She slowly sat back on the vine podium and silently took back her earrings.

It only took her a second to make up a lie: "That red door... is a relic left by my father to me. My father's very important things are kept there."

Gu Shen is not only sharp, but also a spiritual extraordinary person.

Ordinary lies cannot deceive him...

And what Lu Nanzhi just said was, in a sense, no longer a lie.

The previous person who kept the Red Gate and looked for the secret key was indeed Lao Lu.

This door is inheritance, belief, and what countless people are struggling to pursue... Alan Turing's legacy.

No one knows what it is.

But everyone knows that this is important.

"You are right. In fact, I am not troubled by insomnia, I just don't rest well." Lu Nanzhi whispered: "Because I want to unlock the dream of the red door that my father left for me... So I came to find you. I heard that you completed three nightmare-level dream interpretation trials during the S-level review at the Judgment Office, so I thought you could help me."

"Is this so..."

After hearing this, Gu Shen fell into thinking.

He didn't suspect anything.

After thinking for a while, Gu Shen said seriously: "Maybe I can open this door... But you have to wait."

"What……?"

Madam's eyes lit up, then she frowned slightly.

The hope that had been extinguished was rekindled with Gu Shen's words, but she didn't understand, were there any additional conditions needed to open the red door? Why wait any longer?

"Well...it's hard to explain to you. You can understand that my mental state has not been very good recently. Or...the me who entered the dream this time is not at the peak of my power."

Gu Shen smiled and thought to himself, after all, he still couldn't live without Chu Ling.

He had a hunch in his heart...if Chu Ling was here.

The red door has been opened.
