Hurley took Tortosa into the city lord's back garden. Different from the back garden Bella had seen, the space here was much smaller. There was a flower garden, a lotus pond, two rockeries, and two carved towers.
There are only these few buildings in the garden.
The guard seemed to be telling no lies. The women really lived here. The maids were walking back and forth in the corridors. There were several little girls playing near the flower garden, a half-grown girl playing on the swing, and several adult women chatting around the carved tower.
"It seems that we have really come to a place we shouldn't be," Tortosa said. "It seems that everyone here is the family of City Lord Yang Qiu."
Hurley exclaimed in amazement: "Is he a stallion? Are these women all wives? Are these girls all his children?"
A maid came to Hurley and saluted: "My lord, what can I do for you?"
"I'm here to find my friends."
"This is the residence of the women."
"My friend is a woman too!"
"The women here cannot be your friends."
"Then let us be friends!" Hurley laughed loudly, "I am a very enthusiastic person!"
"Please leave here immediately! Otherwise I will call someone!"
"Don't be so cold, I'm really a passionate person!"
"Can you keep your voice down?" Tortosa blushed. Although the etiquette of mountain demons is different from humans, Hurley's behavior is really embarrassing.
But the more embarrassing thing was yet to come. Hurley ignored the maid's obstruction and broke into the girl's boudoir.
"Oh my God, you should at least knock on the door, you can't just..." Tortosa's voice stopped suddenly, the room was filled with mist, and the two girls were taking a bath in the tub.
"I, let's leave quickly," Tortosa said, "This, this is really embarrassing."
"I'm not ashamed!" Hurley stared at the girls and said with a hearty smile, "Girls, nice to meet you!"
"Who are you!" the girl shouted, "get out quickly!"
"I won't go out!" Hurley looked at the girl proudly.
"If you don't get out, we will call someone!"
"Who do you want to call? I will shout for you!" Hurley said, "You have to call the woman named Chun Miao, and the woman named Chun Miao will rush up and fight me hard! As long as I have a little physical contact with her, she will
He would fall to the ground, break his head, and die on the spot! I caused trouble, and a group of you women came up and fought with me, beating me to pieces and bleeding, and crying until the situation was completely out of control, and then you forced
Get me out of here, that's what you want to do, right?"
The two girls who were taking a shower stared at Hurley for a long time, then looked at each other for a while, and then fell into silence.
Not only were they silent, but everyone in the yard fell silent, including the little girl by the pond. Even they stopped playing and looked at Hurley with their necks crooked.
Tortosa whispered: "It seems that you exposed their conspiracy."
"This is not a conspiracy at all," Hurley sneered. "According to Reggie, this is just a certain program."
"Procedure?" Tortosa said, "Has your Excellency ever said such a word?"
"Of course you don't understand this kind of advanced vocabulary. It's something that automatically executes commands. You'll understand it after a while."
"Are you planning to stay here forever?" Tortosa looked awkwardly at the two girls taking a shower.
"What's wrong? Don't these two girls look good? Don't they have good figures?" Hurley showed a lewd smile again.
"Hasn't anyone told me that it's wrong to watch others take a shower...?"
"I'm watching them take a bath, not you." Hurley's smile suddenly disappeared, "They don't mind, why should you?"
It was really strange. Hurley was right. They really didn't seem to mind. The two girls kept looking at Hurley with their necks crooked. They didn't even use their hands to cover their bodies.
Not just them, everyone looked at Hurley in the same posture, even the girl who was swinging stopped in mid-air, and the whole scene seemed to be frozen.
The weird atmosphere made Tortosa shudder, and she could vaguely feel that the garden seemed to be controlled by some powerful spell.
A few minutes later, the two girls in front of them began to take a shower as if nothing had happened. As if they hadn't seen Hurley and Tortosa, the maid they met first came to the door and said to the two people: "My lord, do you have a bath?"
What's the matter?"
It was exactly the same question as when he first entered the house, but now this question was very inappropriate. Tortosa looked at the girl in the bathtub and then at the maid at the door, feeling that they seemed to be in different time and space.
"Did you see it? This is called a system restart," Hurley said with a smile. "A program has fallen into some kind of irreparable error and can only be restarted in the most brutal way. After startup, there will be confusion in the time logic.
!”
Tortosa didn't understand Hurley's words at all, and I was afraid that Natalie might not understand either. The maids and girls were still repeating the previous plot, until the girl taking a bath was about to call someone, and all the scenes were frozen again.
.
"Did you see it? The program is stuck in an infinite loop," Hurley laughed loudly. "This is the unique witchcraft of the Hades Wizard. Its name is Puppet Changing. Everyone in the world calls it a puppet show. What you see are just puppets.
That’s all!”
Tortosa said in shock: "Are you saying...these in front of you are not human beings?"
"Yes, they are not people, they are puppets. What you see is not the real back garden, but the curtain of the stage!" Hurley released a flame with his finger and began to burn the wall of the house. The wall instantly caught fire, but
The group of women calmly repeated the scene just now.
"My lord, what can I do for you?"
…
Bella had no way to escape this time. There was a wall behind her, a rockery on the left, a pond on the right, and the Hades Wizard in front of her.
Saga waved his hand, and there were many beautiful fish in the pond.
"Do you like it, my child?" Saga waved his hand towards the pond again, and there was another terrifying creature in the pond. Its body shape was similar to that of a python, but it had a head like a lion, and there were also
A pair of antlers.
Bella was born in the Colosseum. She had seen countless ferocious beasts, but she had never seen such a terrifying monster. This strange snake gnawed on live fish in the pond, and the water in the pond quickly turned blood red.
"Do you want to jump into the pool?"
Bella shook her head, and Saga waved to the rockery, which was instantly covered with fist-sized spiders.
"Do you want to go to the mountains?"
Bella was so frightened that she backed away desperately. When she got to the wall, she found that the wall was covered with worms as thick as two fingers.
Bella collapsed completely. She sat on the ground and cried loudly. Saga sighed and said, "Why did you have to turn things like this? I can give you a paradise, why did you choose hell..."
Saga sniffed and seemed to smell something burnt.
"It seems that someone wants to save you," Saga said with a slight smile, "an elf and a mountain demon, fools who don't overestimate their abilities, think they can really leave my puppet theater."
"Old wizard, you underestimate me too much!" Hurley's voice almost broke Saga's eardrums. "Your puppet show is not good at all. Let me find you something really interesting."
Bella shouted loudly: "Crazy Elf, I'm here!"
Before he finished speaking, a huge fireball shrouded the sky. Hurley stood on top of the fireball and shouted to Saga: "Old wizard, the show has begun."
