Just as the light dissipated, Moon Deer's sharp and crazy voice sounded.
He is as energetic, passionate and full of energy as the announcer.
It seems to love its "job" very much and does not feel tired at all.
Yasen, who was still immersed in pain, looked up and was slightly stunned. He didn't even realize that they had just set off - let alone that they had arrived.
"Is this...the Hall of Mirrors?"
Yassen looked intently - what appeared in front of him and Aiwass was a dazzling and gorgeous palace.
This is the Hall of Mirrors. However, from Yassen's intuition, its more correct name should probably be called "Jade Palace".
It is entirely made of emerald jade and covers an area at least twenty times that of the Silver and Tin Palace - it is a genuine palace complex, or it can be called a giant fortress.
Either dark green, light green, red or yellow, as well as ice-green and milky white - the colors of the exterior walls here are not uniform, but naturally and randomly distributed. However, this is not the case
Make it look abrupt or ugly... because on every exterior wall, there are paintings handed down from ancient times with different painting styles but extremely natural.
Some are oil paintings, some are ink paintings, and some are relief sculptures.
These scroll pictures blend perfectly with the jade background colors on the walls.
It does not belong to any art style, but it integrates all art styles.
"All the 'beauty' recognized in the material world will gather here."
Aiwass answered: "This is the Hall of Mirrors."
"...Then, where is the mirror?"
"Of course the mirror is inside."
Aiwass smiled and patted the Moon Deer under him: "We will come out again later, can you please wait a moment?"
"It doesn't have to be like this, my dear son of Si Zhu. If you need me, just let the night demon on your head call my name. After all, she is also a phantom demon on the path of love."
Moon Deer made a sharp laugh that was reminiscent of "Evil": "My name is Arnold Eddie MacDonald Lyman Gavin Blue Morgan Mel Holmes..."
It read out a name that lasted forty-four stanzas in one breath. The name was so long that it could be made into a song and would make people dizzy.
However, with Aiwass' enhanced memory, he could still remember it easily.
"Your real name is too long, I usually just call you Arnold."
Aiwass touched Moon Deer's head and said softly.
"As you wish, respected son of Zhu Zhu! I look forward to your call!"
After saying that, Moon Deer let out a sharp, crazy, hysterical and passionate laugh - if just now it looked like a clown in the circus, now it has become a clown in Gotham City: "I'm looking forward to yours too."
Story!! Looking forward to it!!!”
It laughed, jumped high again, and then turned into a ray of light and disappeared instantly.
"Moon Deer...what a magical creature."
Yasen sighed: "Does it just want to 'listen to stories' when it picks up people back and forth?"
"Because Moon Deer is actually the incarnation of the concept of 'gossip' in the dream world. That's why its voice is so sharp, exciting and unpleasant.
"It's just like some people in the material world, after hearing other people's dark histories, secrets that are not told to others, and painful memories, even if they vow to say things like, 'Don't worry, I won't tell anyone,' they will probably
He will add insult to injury and spread it to other people. At most, he can add, 'Don't tell others,' so that you can feel at ease."
Aiwass replied: "The distance between two hearts in the material world may only be a few rooms or a few streets. But in the dream world, it may be from the Kingdom of Shadows to the Hall of Mirrors. The speed of the Moon Deer is just like the speed of the heart.
With a single thought, information is transmitted from one end to the other.
"And if you want to 'spread rumors', you must first have information that can be used for spreading. So it doesn't work if it's not painful enough, dirty enough, or fun enough—"
The more fun people like to listen to and eat, the more people the Moon Deer can carry and the farther it can teleport. Just like the more interesting but unfriendly stories, the faster they spread,
It's the same as the wider the world. And the same fun news is definitely the kind that stirs up emotions and spreads better than pure jokes and memes.
The most beneficial episode for journalism and communication studies.
"……gossip?"
Hearing this, Yasen's expression suddenly changed: "Then what I said to it will not be spread, right?"
"Arnold doesn't even know who you are or what your name is, how can he tell you?"
Aiwass smiled: "It's just the manifestation of the concept. Death itself will not die, and sleep itself cannot sleep. Therefore, the concept of 'spreading rumors' itself cannot spread rumors."
"There are quite a lot of phantoms in the dream world that are transformed from pure concepts like Moon Deer. After all, the dream world is a conceptual projection of the material world. If you are interested, I will take you to see the incarnation or reproduction of death next time.
the incarnation of.”
"...No, that's not necessary."
Yassen smiled coquettishly and rejected Aiwass' proposal without hesitation: "I think Moon Deer is pretty good."
"In that case..."
Aiwass smiled and patted Yassen on the shoulder: "Then you may have to prepare for the return trip - it will probably be for three people."
"...Eh? Me?"
"I can't do it."
Aiwass shrugged: "I dare to speak, but do you dare to listen?"
Then of course he wouldn't dare——
Yassen twitched his lips and put forward constructive suggestions: "What about Sherlock? Since we are here to rescue him, let him at least pay the fare. You should also expect that Sherlock will do something wrong.
Go ahead and sue someone."
"...That's okay."
Aiwass's heart moved and he nodded in agreement.
He and Yassen are both Sherlock's good friends and true brothers.
When their brother is in danger, they are both the most anxious; and after their brother is safe, they can also become the most dangerous.
But then, Aiwass hesitated again: "But I feel that with that guy's character... he may not have any unforgettable past. Even if it is fun enough, if it cannot arouse strong emotions, Yuelu will not be able to stir up strong emotions." Will be satisfied.”
"He has it."
Yassen said with certainty: "I even know it vaguely. But compared to the rumors I heard, I would like to hear him say it himself... This will also make him let go of those things better. After talking about those things After the incident, although I felt more regretful and sad...but I felt inexplicably relaxed."
There are essential differences between iris and star antimony.
They lack the inheritance of the Path of Balance, so they also lack the knowledge of alchemy. Although Yasen also has the level of the Path of Balance and has the qualifications to become an alchemist, he has now become a famous Phantom Thief in Iris... But he In fact, I never knew what the consequences of my actions back then were.
This is "every other line is like a mountain".
But now, he finally fully understood the scale of the losses he had caused and the extent of the trouble he had made. When he felt uneasy about his conscience in the past, he donated all the proceeds from his thefts, and he breathed a sigh of relief and regained his balance. His own sense of morality... But in fact, the donated money cannot make up for the crimes he committed.
Yasen himself also vaguely knew this.
He knew that the money he received must be less than normal - and because the money he received was less than normal, the "sins he would atone for" after donating it would also be less.
Now, decades have passed. It is precisely because of this worry that he has never forgotten that incident. It is precisely because he remembers the sins of the past that he can firmly walk among the thieves and warn himself not to commit them. He committed the sin of greed and always distributed all the money he stole to the poor.
All this is because of the "vague ominous premonition" and the "unspeakable past".
Now that he had told everything he had hidden, and even learned his true crime through Aiwass's analysis... Yasen relaxed instead.
There is an inexplicable sense of relief.
This is indeed like the previous step of "spreading rumors" - sharing the secrets accumulated in the heart with others in exchange for the recovery of one's own spirit.
"It seems that you have gradually understood Yuelu."
Aiwass smiled meaningfully.
Some stories have completely different feelings when told by the person involved themselves and when told by a third party. Even if they describe the same thing or even have the same content, they will give people a completely different feeling. And what Yuelu tasted , it’s that “sense of reality”.
"...But, if that's the case..."
After thinking for a moment, Yasen, who instinctively looked for loopholes, lowered his voice and asked: "Then what if what I told Yuelu is a rumor...or a half-truth, a self-modified story?"
"Actually, it's okay, but the distance you can move will definitely decrease. After all, as long as you modify it, you won't have so much regret and pain in your heart. And if you further fabricate it, it will actually be close to Hui Tiansi or Xi Tiansi
The realm of..."
The two of them chatted and gradually approached the Hall of Mirrors.
