"During the consciousness link, brother, you will temporarily lose yourself, so please ensure that your body is in a safe and relaxed state. Of course, if there is trouble in the outside world, I will remind you to come back." Iselin reminded.

"Then I'll trouble you. Iselin." Li Chengyi nodded.

He sat on the ground next to Elsa, leaning against the bed.

The morning light outside the window shines in the hazy bellflower smoke, seeming to illuminate the entire smoke into a golden color.

"Brother, be prepared, relax your guard and relax your consciousness." Iselin reminded.

"3."

"2."

"1."

Snap.

In an instant, Li Chengyi's eyesight went dark.

The darkness was like a thick fog, surrounding him, unable to be dispersed or illuminated.

But inexplicably, Li Chengyi felt very awake.

slowly.

over time.

The surrounding darkness began to brighten.

He was still sitting in the bedroom on the second floor of the small building.

Elsa disappeared, and he was the only one there.

The sun is still bright outside and the door is open. The faint sound of a woman's voice drifted in.

But the words were very hazy, and I couldn't hear clearly what was said. I could only feel that I was very cheerful and happy.

"Is this Aisha's hallucination consciousness?" Li Chengyi stood up, walked to the window and looked out.

It was completely white outside, and it was blurry to see clearly.

He thought for a moment, reached out and grabbed the window, and pushed it out.

Click.

The window was opened, and the white light from outside shone in.

Li Chengyi quickly adapted to the dazzling light.

He squinted, stuck his head out, and looked out the window.

"!?"

Outside is not the garden downstairs, but the endless white sea.

There are no other colors, just the pure white sea.

The sea water is white, there are no fish, no waves, everything is calm, and there is no end in sight.

Li Chengyi raised his head and looked at the sky.

The sky in the distance is also pure white.

"Brother, these are all Elsa's hallucinations. I suggest that you immediately find Tomira in her consciousness. Such hallucinations change very quickly and may collapse into other different things at any time." Iselin's voice said. Sounded in my heart.

"Understood." Li Chengyi closed the window, turned around and walked out of the room.

At the corner of the stairs on the second floor, he was about to go downstairs when he suddenly stopped.

At the entrance of the stairs, a blond woman wearing a white dress, with her hands folded on her abdomen, was quietly blocking there. It blocked the only way in and out of the stairs and remained motionless.

Her face was blurred and nothing could be seen clearly. In addition, it could be seen that the skirt on her body had several pockets sewn on it, and some edges were washed and worn. It was obvious that this skirt had been worn for many years.

The woman's voice still floated from somewhere on the first floor.

But the woman at the top of the stairs remained motionless, her blurred face facing Li Chengyi who was coming down the stairs. He seemed to be watching him quietly.

"Tomila?" Li Chengyi tried to say hello.

"." The woman didn't answer, she just turned around and walked away silently.

Li Chengyi frowned slightly and followed.

The woman's voice became clearer at this time, but the words became blurred very quickly, and the meaning was still unintelligible.

The two of them walked through the living room on the first floor and arrived at Tomila's bedroom.

Push the door open and enter.

In the room, there was a short-haired man in a hospital gown lying on a bed in the corner. He was coughing constantly.

Elsa was here too, giggling at a TV set painted on the white wall.

The TV set made of black and white lines was actually constantly moving, playing cartoons made of lines.

Tomila walked to the chair facing the window, sat down, and sat on the chair.

The window was open, and a black eagle half as tall as a man was squatting on the window sill, staring in the direction of the chair.

From time to time it opened its mouth and let out a girly laugh like Elsa.

For a moment, the man's cough, Elsa's laughter, the eagle's laughter, and the noise of TV cartoons, all the sounds were like stirring paint, fixed and repeated, mixed together, making Li Chengyi stand in front of the door, but there was a faint feeling. Inexplicably creepy.

Gululu.

Just when Li Chengyi was about to enter.

The heel seemed to be hit by something.

He looked back and found a round tomato.

The bright red tomatoes lie on the gray wooden floor, eye-catching and bright.

"If I were you, I would never go in." A palm-sized brown squirrel was squatting by the stairs in the living room, looking at him motionless.

Apparently it was the one who lost the tomatoes just now.

"Who are you?" Li Chengyi was surprised.

You must know that this is inside Elsa's consciousness, and everything should be Elsa's fantasy.

He also used Iselin's special ability to get in.

But now, a seemingly normal creature appears.

"Me?" The squirrel's bright black eyes showed a hint of humanity.

"You can call me Emperor Bai Hai, King of Thousand Waters."

"." Li Chengyi looked at the brown squirrel that was only the size of his palm and felt that the other party was joking.

"I am Elsa's hero. I am her childhood friend," the squirrel answered.

"They are also the guards guarding this place."

It looked at Li Chengyi.

"Stranger, what do you want to do here?"

"I'm here to look for clues about the Sunken Palace and the Book of Distortion." Li Chengyi answered.

"I don't know what the Sunken Palace is, but if you are looking for the so-called Book of Distortion. Maybe I know where it is." Squirrel replied.

"! Are you sure?" Li Chengyi asked.

"Of course I'm sure. After all, I don't need to lie to a dying person." Squirrel said seriously.

"A dying person? What do you mean?" Li Chengyi felt something was wrong.

"This is Elsa's hallucination, and it is also the area where her body is located on the edge of the non-gate." The squirrel answered. "Do you know the non-men?"

"Not the door?"

"Yes, that door between the cognizable and the uncognizable. It is something that every life has, it is a boundary, and it is an elusive barrier. Some people call it the soul-body barrier, and some call it the spiritual boundary. It There are many, many names.”

Squirrel said.

“But my favorite is still the NOT gate.”

"Who are you?" Li Chengyi didn't think Aisha could understand so many things.

"I said that I am Elsa's hero. I am the White Sea Emperor and the King of Thousand Waters. Of course, these are actually Elsa's imagination. She hopes that I am a powerful hero who can save her from this damn cycle of pain. , rescue her. But it’s a pity.” Squirrel spread his hands.

"To break through the Not Gate, there is not only one way to sublimate yourself, but also another way to put your consciousness in a state of chaos. Under certain coincidences, you can accidentally touch and enter the edge of the Not Gate."

"Then where is the twisted book you mentioned?" Li Chengyi asked.

"It's in this house. It's the only reality here. Someone let it in through the non-door, hid it here, and drove the Tomelas into madness."

"Her husband died and Tomila went crazy, but the influence of the Twisted Book on her was so great that she had to frantically write down what suddenly appeared in her mind. It's a pity that no one can understand her."

"You mean, someone specifically placed the Book of Distortion here?" Li Chengyi felt awe-struck.

"Yes. I don't know who he is, and I don't remember his appearance. If you want to find the Book of Distortion now, I advise you to hurry up." Squirrel said. "If you can really take that book away, it will be a good thing for Elsa, for Tomela, and for us."

"You don't know where it is?" Li Chengyi frowned.

"No. I only know that it is in this house. It has been stored in Elsa's hallucinations for many years. Elsa herself is trying to find it and throw it away. But she can't do it even if she is dying now , I can’t do it either.” The squirrel sighed.

Li Chengyi stopped talking nonsense and quickly scanned the bookshelf in the living room. The only few books were all about geography, history, and tobacco production.

After turning it over, he quickly rummaged through the cabinets in the living room, lifted up the sofa, opened the fireplace and got in.

The display cabinet was moved, and even the gaps behind it were rummaged through.

The first floor was quickly searched, and Li Chengyi quickly rushed to the second floor.

Soon, in the bedside table of the bedroom on the second floor, he opened the drawer and found a book with a gray and white cover.

An open twisted palm is drawn on the surface of the book. The palm has sharp nails and only four fingers. The palm is covered with many bloody wounds.

And below, a line of small characters clearly read: Book of Distortion. Used Blackhaven.

"That's it!" Li Chengyi didn't expect to find the target so easily, and immediately reached out to grab the book.

suddenly.

laugh.

The moment before he touched the cover, his hand paused. The special soft sound originating from the Qiyi Holy Spirit Skill was like mint water in his heart, instantly waking him up.

"Iselin?"

Li Chengyi shouted softly in his heart.

No one answered.

His eyes turned cold.

He couldn't remember when he could understand Black Haven, and it was impossible for Yiselin to remain silent from just now to now.

so.

Buzz! !

In an instant, everything in front of him suddenly began to distort in his eyes.

The Twisted Book quickly faded and disappeared.

A large number of cracks began to appear silently on the bedside table and bedroom, and then...

Wow.

With a crisp sound, everything shattered.

"Brother! Brother!!"

Iselin's anxious voice seemed to float from a far away place and reached his ears.

Li Chengyi slowly opened his eyes.

He was standing at the window on the second floor, looking out at the endless white ocean.

One of his feet has already stepped out.

It was just a little short of falling out completely and falling into the white sea.

Quickly retracting his feet, Li Chengyi looked towards the room behind him.

The bedroom was empty, nothing.

There was no squirrel, no Elsa, and no Tomela.

He is alone here.

"Brother! There must be a Book of Distortion here! This book seems to distort all individuals who try to get close to it! It is the only reality in Elsa's hallucination here, you must be careful!" Yiselin saw that Li Chengyi finally woke up, Suddenly he breathed a sigh of relief.

"I understand" Li Chengyi took a deep breath. "By the way, let me ask you, will the twisted book break easily?"

"Probably not, after all, it is one of the holy objects of the Sunken Clan," Yisselin replied.

"Wait! Could you be...?" She reacted instantly, but she didn't finish her words.

boom! !

A brilliant golden flame instantly exploded in the room on the second floor.
