Barrier of Light

"Gu Shen is back!"

In a monitoring room with [Wind Pupil] authority in the prison, Bai Lu stared at the screen, feeling a little excited.

The man wearing a white judge's robe sat on the table next to him, crossing his arms with a helpless expression. Bai Chen rarely saw his sister look so serious...

"With such a big living person, are you still afraid that he will run away?"

"It's not a matter of running or not."

Bai Lu shook her head.

"I heard about the deal between you and Han Dang." Bai Chen frowned and said, "You don't have to do this for him... The Bai family doesn't need to act based on Zhu Wang's face."

"Of course not because of Han Dang." Bai Lu sneered.

She thought for a long time and didn't know how to describe her current thoughts to her brother...

She wanted to see Gu Shen again not because she wanted to negotiate on behalf of the Bai family.

It was because the figure she saw in the "Dream of Thorns" was always lingering in her mind... She wanted to get an answer about this figure.

"Gu Shen is at the gate of the Snow Forbidden City now. I want to see him."

Just saying this, Bai Lu picked up her coat and prepared to leave the inspection room.

Bai Chen reached out and grabbed his sister's arm.

"Gu Shen just had a meal with the Li family..."

Bai Chen had a headache and said: "The Li family will not allow anything to happen to him at this time. If you go to see him again, what will happen to the Li family? The one with the surname Gao is one of the top three in Nagano in terms of mental power perception, and can cover most of it." A snow forbidden city."

Bai Lu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Did your brother think that he was going to beat this kid himself?

Hmm...she does seem to have this idea.

It was a pity that the fight on the Ninghe Bridge was not completed.

If we meet again, it is really possible for us to start a fight!

"Aren't you here..." Bai Lu chuckled, "I just want to have a chat with Gu Shen. How about you come forward and help me drag away the uncle from the Li family?"

Bai Chen was speechless, and finally just sighed softly.

…

…

The city gate is blocked by snow, and the night is already deep.

This majestic ancient city is made of red bricks and white tiles, covered with flying snow. Looking from a distance, the lights are still brightly lit in the long night in the distance, but everything around is completely silent, making it look very deserted.

Uncle Gao drove away with Li Qingsui.

Gu Shen walked towards the city... He was not planning to return to Qianlong Temple, at least while the challenger did not leave, he would not go back.

You will face a lot of troubles when you go back.

He had neither the energy nor the mind to deal with the endless stream of visitors.

The spiritual link is still disconnected... Chu Ling seems to be meditating alone.

It's interesting.

It turns out that [Source Code] sometimes wants to be alone for a while.

The long night in Nagano.

A young man walks through the streets.

The wind was blowing.

The fire between the young man's eyebrows suddenly burned and became the only light in the dark night.

Gu Shen raised his head.

In the distance is the wall of the inner city of the Snow Forbidden City. The stone wall across the city is covered with snow dust... Under the reflection of the flames, it is vaguely visible that a figure appears out of thin air above the city.

The man seemed to be one with the wind and snow.

If the "blazing fire" hadn't ignited by itself... even if ordinary people passed by, they wouldn't pay the slightest attention.

He has been waiting here for a long time.

The gray and black suit is spotless, and the gold-rimmed glasses reflect a calm and almost indifferent look... This man is like a child looking at the scenery from a distance, using a slightly naughty posture, sitting with his elbows on the wind and frost that has stood for hundreds of years. At the top of the snow-forbidden city, the palms of both hands were pressed against the wall, with a snow-covered briefcase beside them.

If he dangles his legs.

Then it really looks like a child.

But he didn't.

So this posture seemed very tight and on the verge of breaking out... like a cheetah hiding in the dark, ready to hunt at any time!

Han Dang spoke expressionlessly.

"Long time no see, S-class."

He said hello.

An unfriendly greeting.

Gu Shen's expression did not change, he just frowned slightly and asked coldly: "Have we met before?"

Before leaving, Senior Sister Luo hypnotized Han Dang, and all memories of the mission in Dadeng City had been erased.

Gu Shen didn't think that Han Dang had the ability to unlock the [Celestial Eye] spell now.

Hearing this response...Han Dang smiled.

This sentence was indeed a trap, and Gu Shen did not step on it...but it didn't matter whether he stepped on it or not, because some things did not need to be remembered to be certain that they had happened.

Han Dang firmly believed that part of his memory had been deleted.

He must have met Gu Shen somewhere.

"Gu Shen... why don't we change places and talk again."

Han Dang lightly jumped down from the top of the city.

A moment.

His spiritual power rippled -

[Mantra] The field spreads instantly!

…

…

The moment Gu Shen saw Han Dang, he realized what was going to happen next.

He swept back immediately, but Han Dang's mental power was faster and swept him up in an instant... This was a huge gap in physical strength, and Gu Shen had no way to refuse Han Dang's ability to pull him into sleep.

only.

He did not feel panic about entering the field of [Mantra].

Anyway...this isn't the first time.

Gu Shen took a deep breath.

He stood in the overwhelming darkness, feeling his consciousness being pulled into the "dream" bit by bit... Unlike the time in the orphanage, he could clearly feel his power.

Although being pulled into a dream.

But this process can be seen and felt by oneself.

He sat on the interrogation table.

Pale lights shone down from above, and this time, Gu Shen fell into extreme calmness.

He calmly stared at the shackles on his hands and feet, then raised his head and looked at the man in suit at the other end of the interrogation table.

"Crack."

A familiar action.

Han Dang habitually snapped his fingers.

A basin of cold water poured down, directly onto Gu Shen's soul... However, something unexpected happened to Han Dang.

The interrogator was soaked to the skin, but did not show signs of pain.

Just look straight at yourself calmly.

From the beginning to the end, Gu Shen's expression did not change at all.

Han Dang frowned.

After being poured with this basin of cold water, Gu Shen should feel a sting that hit his spirit, and then wake up instantly.

no response?

In the field of [Mantra]...this has never happened before.

"Thank you, I'm awake."

There was a hint of coldness in Gu Shen's voice.

He did feel the coldness that hit his soul, but it was offset by the blazing fire in an instant... The blazing fire, which had just had a full meal in the Temple Mountain, had stored too much extraordinary source material that could not be consumed. Due to the mental attack he suffered, From the moment you enter the realm of [Mantra], these extraordinary sources begin to be consumed.

"You should know where you are now, right?" Han Dang snapped his fingers again, and the lights above the interrogation room suddenly gathered and turned into a condensed and blazing pillar of light, covering Gu Shen.

The soul is on fire.

However, Gu Shen's expression changed slightly as he sat at the interrogation table.

He wanted silence.

But a force came from somewhere, forcing him to speak.

"This is... the realm of mantra."

Gu Shen spoke word by word, obeying the rules of the [Mantra] field, and answered Han Dang's questions. He felt that the burning in his soul was relieved a lot.

He silently digested the source of the blazing fire while observing this small [interrogation room].

Is this the spiritual realm of the eleventh level of the deep sea?

"Obviously, we have met before." Han Dang spoke again and said softly: "What happened in Dadeng City?"

This time.

Gu Shen was silent.

[Mantra] The power of the rules of the domain came again, trying to force him to speak.

However, everything in this world is exchanged with equal value... Suffering pain and choosing silence are both choices that violate the rules. To make this choice, theoretically, you only need to burn a sufficient amount of extraordinary source matter.

Han Dang waited for a few seconds but did not receive a response.

He was a little surprised, and the next moment he realized what Gu Shen was doing... Was he trying to burn the extraordinary source of matter to disobey the rules in the field of [Mantra]?

Han Dang changed to a lazy sitting position and tapped his fingertips gently on the table.

He didn't even increase the pressure on the mental level, but just waited like "boiling a frog in warm water", waiting for Gu Shen to be unable to resist, and then give up the struggle... This is really interesting.

"Mortals always have their limits, and those who know the current situation are heroes." Han Dang asked with a smile: "In front of people who are far beyond your own strength... you always have to bow your head, right? Gu Shen?"

unexpected.

As soon as I finished saying this, I got an immediate response.

"This truth... I agree with it."

Gu Shen struggled to speak, and he managed a smile: "Do you agree?"

Han Dang was stunned.

Under the influence of the rules of [Mantra], Gu Shen skipped the previous question and raised his own question instead. He said it word by word with great difficulty.

"If you have been standing in front of [Wind Eyes], you should know...when I left the Snow Forbidden City, those eyes were ineffective..."

Han Dang had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Ever since Gu Shen returned to Nagano, he has been using [Wind Eyes] to observe Gu Shen's every move... However, there was a brief period of loss of contact tonight, and Han Dang's [Wind Eyes] authority is also limited. Can only be moved freely within certain areas.

Through data investigation in the deep water area, he learned that Gu Shen left the Snow Forbidden City.

So he waited here, waiting for Gu Shen to come back.

"Senior Brother Xiao Han, there are some things that you still need to... use your brain to think about."

Gu Shen's handcuffs made a clattering sound. He raised his hands as if they were filled with lead, pointed at his forehead with his fingertips, and said with a smile, "Guess who I went for a ride with?"

Five families?

Gong Zi, Mu Nan, Bai Lu appeared tonight...

etc!

A petite and fragile girl suddenly appeared in Han Dang's mind... To be precise, he thought of the tall man who would definitely appear next to the girl.

It is said that the man's spiritual power can spread and cover half of the Snow Forbidden City.

So what’s going on here…

next moment!

There was a "boom".

The sound of a broken mirror!

The [Interrogation Room] was directly shattered by external force and turned into thousands of fragments, all of which exploded.

Return to reality.

Gu Shen's handcuffs and shackles were all broken.

He exhaled a faint breath and endured some pain in the field of [Mantra]...but it was still within the tolerance range.

"It's a little slow, can't you do it on purpose?" Gu Shen muttered softly.

He looked across and saw that Han Dang was much miserable than himself. His face was as pale as paper, without a trace of blood at all, and the hands holding the briefcase were shaking violently.

The dream is broken.

Han Dang fell into mental disorder.

There were stabbing pains in his mind, and at the same time, an extremely clear and cold voice sounded in his ears.

It came from an uncle who had already driven away from the Snow Forbidden City.

"Han Dang... don't have any ideas about Gu Shen."

"This time, it's just a warning."

…

…

(Still available tonight!)
