  Chapter 556 Skull

  In short, calm down first.

   Li Ang suppressed the strong mood swings, and his mind changed sharply.

  The time on the pocket watch jumped forward by four minutes, which meant that the Nightmare Tapir activated its ability. This is not necessarily a bad thing, at least it proves a few things.

  One, nightmares have the ability to sense the outside world and respond to external threats.

  Second, the ability of the nightmare may not affect Mosi.

  The second conclusion is based on the first one. Everyone's standing position and the content of their speech have not changed, and even their memory has not been blank, except that Mosi's pocket watch has moved forward for four minutes.

  What did you or others do or what happened during these four minutes that triggered the coping mechanism of the nightmare.

  Third, based on the above two points, I can use the characteristics of Mosi to avoid the nightmare's ability to manipulate memory and modify reality.

  The question is, how to do it.

  Li Ang thought for a moment, controlled Mosi under the skin on his back, formed tiny Esperanto characters, and recorded everything that happened just now, as well as the current time.

  Success!

  After all the text was recorded, Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief.

   This is a temptation to the nightmare. He has already thought about how to resist the nightmare in his mind, but this memory has not been deleted.

  Maybe the nightmare cannot see or understand Esperanto, or maybe the nightmare is still sleeping, and only when it makes a substantive action will the coping mechanism be triggered.

  No matter what the reason is, it is in your own interest. The next thing to do is to find out what triggered the nightmare coping mechanism.

   Li Ang looked around, Lu Qingya was talking to his wife and children, the guards hired by Jin Wusuan were still confronting each other, and the same was true for Chen Wanyi and the others.

   "Priest Chen,"

   Li Ang took a step.

   "Ang'er, don't you say these things, don't you put Mr. Qingya at the mercy of injustice?"

  Mother Cui Yi couldn't help pulling Li Ang's clothes, and whispered: "Is this really good? Will it be dangerous?"

   "Mom, I have a sense of proportion."

   Li Ang shook his head naturally, and then his pupils dilated slightly.

  The pointer of the pocket watch pointed to 12:18, and it was a second since I checked it, and it suddenly jumped forward by eight minutes!

   Wait, what is this?

   There was a faint itching feeling on his back. After scanning with his spiritual sense, he found that it was written in ink in Esperanto.

   I wrote this myself?

   With a glance, all the information gathered in his mind, and Li Ang's thoughts changed sharply.

  Assume that the ink silk script on the back is really left by yourself. Well, this is not the first memory reset, but the second.

  ‘The record in Mosi text came to an abrupt end the moment I stepped towards Chen Wanyi after the first memory reset.

   This means that the trigger mechanism of the nightmare is to go to Chen Wanyi, to be precise, what may happen after going to Chen Wanyi.

  Based on this, working backwards, the original self walked towards Chen Wanyi, something happened, and the memory was reset for the first time.

  After the reset, I still chose to walk towards Chen Wanyi, but as soon as I took a step, I was interrupted by the nightmare, and my progress was reset to zero. '

  Li Ang speculated about the cause of the previous two resets, and thought silently, 'We can't repeat the same mistakes, but one can be two, and two can't be repeated.

  If you continue to walk towards Chen Wanyi, it is likely to cause unknown consequences.

   You have to think of other ways. '

  The Nightmare Tapir cared so much about Chen Wanyi, obviously because he was afraid of the latter, or a certain information/item carried by the latter.

  Is there any way to obtain key clues while avoiding the nightmare and avoiding its suspicion?

   "Ahem!"

   Li Ang pretended to be weak, coughed twice, stepped back and sat down by the wall. The palm quietly placed on the long wooden box in the corner.

  Opening the wooden box, the Dragonfall spear covered in moss lay impressively inside.

  Dragon Fall Command Spell, activated.

  Li Ang held the spear, and activated Long Yun's second ability called Command Spell, controlling living creatures within a certain range.

  He didn't target the living, but the insects who were involved in the ghost domain.

  Invisible fluctuations emanated from the Dragon Meteor spear, like ripples, spreading to within one meter.

A tiny moth gnat lying in the corner froze suddenly, then fluttered its wings and flew up, slowly approaching Chen Wanyi, and finally landed on him. Through the gaps in his clothes, he saw the bronze box in Chen Wanyi's arms, and several sticks. Thin copper needles.

  The bronze needles are engraved with words, they are all the classics of Taihao Mountain that are talked about by gods and gods. Anyone who stabs a long nail into the head will eliminate their sins and become extremely peaceful.

  ‘It’s not just about eliminating crimes, people have become stupid, right? Isn't this a prefrontal lobotomy? ! '

   Li Ang said silently in his heart.

The frontal lobe of the brain is one of the most important areas of the brain. If a tool (such as a steel cone) is used to cut through the orbital bone under the eyelids to remove the brain protein in the frontal lobe, then the person will lose the ability to produce emotions and become "Docile and peaceful, harmless to humans and animals."

The promoters of this operation claim that this disease can cure patients with severe mental illness, and violent addicts and mentally handicapped people. They vigorously promote frontal lobotomy to kill "mental illness in the cradle", and even won The Bell Prize, the general public did not realize its harm until many years later.

   "There are six copper needles, which should correspond to the six people in Taihao Mountain that Chen Wanyi mentioned at the beginning.

   They were convinced that a prefrontal lobotomy would address the capabilities of the nightmare.

  The reason why I have been afraid to take it out is easy to understand. After the nail is nailed, I will become a complete fool. "

   Li Ang opened his eyes, he had already thought of the way to break the game.

   "Father, mother."

  He called softly, Li Hanquan and Cui Yi looked at him worriedly, "What's wrong, Anger."

   Li Ang said seriously: "I succeeded. I was admitted to the academy. I have a group of teachers and friends who care about me. I started my own business. I try my best to help those in need. I live a fulfilling life every day."

   "How can you talk nonsense, kid?"

   Cui Yi frowned slightly, not understanding what Li Ang meant by these words. Their family, who obviously went to Chang'an with Li Ang, have lived in Jinchengfang mansion under the same roof all these years.

  She and her husband watched Li Ang get into the academy with their own eyes, sought welfare for the people of Yu State, and felt proud of their son from the bottom of their hearts—it was the fact that Li Ang had always refused to marry a wife, which caused the couple a bit of a headache.

  Obviously, whether it is the princess, Chai Chai, or Doctor Qiu, they are all very good.

   "Are you having a headache again? Come, take your medicine."

  Qiu Feng picked up the pill and was about to hand it to Li Ang, but Li Hanquan, who had been silent all this time, raised his hand to hold his wife's wrist, and shook his head gently.

   "Is that so?"

  Li Hanquan already understood the reason why Li Ang said these words, sighed, and said gently: "My parents are proud of you. From now on, you must live a good life and take care of yourself."

"Um."

  Li Ang nodded heavily, stood up, and hugged Chai Chai who was at a loss.

"Eh?"

  Chai Chai's face flushed instantly, three points confused, three points disturbed, four points annoyed: "Da, what are you doing, Da Lang?"

  Li Ang just hugged Chai Chai, feeling her body temperature and heartbeat.

  Memory has been confused, he doesn't know whether his parents and Chai Chai are real or not, the decision at this moment is extremely heavy.

   "Sorry, and thank you."

   Li Ang said softly.

  A large number of moss climbed up the spine, reached the head, covered the entire skull, and then turned into gold.
