Chapter 165 Dream God, First Night
"It seems... this matter has become even more interesting..."
Watching the young man's every move in the picture, Chen Lingyou in the room rubbed his chin, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.
It is not difficult to analyze from the other party’s previous words that the reason why the other party disguised himself as a so-called "priest" was probably because he had the same purpose as himself.
As for the so-called "Dream God", perhaps it was the consciousness that Chen Lingyou felt in that stone.
And the blood of God...
After Chen Lingyou's investigation, he found that this divine blood was actually a mixture of the blood of various ordinary livestock.
There is no special substance in it, so naturally there is no way to stop the so-called "Dream God".
However, there was a trace of the other party's spiritual power left in it. If he guessed correctly, this blood was only used to capture the movements of the mysterious creature.
Chen Lingyou did not intend to hinder the other party's actions. After all, he had never seen the so-called "Dream God".
If this stupid method really works, then he would definitely have discovered it before that young man. Why not do such a profitable deal?
While he was thinking, the sky outside was gradually getting darker.
After sensing that the middle-aged woman had returned to the gate of the manor, Chen Lingyou did not go out again. Instead, he pretended to be overly tired and fell asleep.
Sure enough, after carefully carrying the bottle of "divine blood" back home.
The first thing the other party did was to secretly glance at Chen Lingyou's movements.
Only after she found that Chen Lingyou was already asleep on the bed did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Taking a look at the sky that was about to turn completely dark, the middle-aged woman no longer hesitated. She immediately took out a brush and brushed the blood in the earthen jar all over every window and door.
For a moment, the room was filled with a fishy smell of blood.
As soon as he smelled the scent, Wells seemed to be half as experienced as he had already rushed out the door happily.
"Mother! Did you buy the divine blood?"
"Then can we sleep well tonight?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged woman who had been nervous all the time finally smiled and rubbed her golden curly hair lovingly.
"Yes."
"Thanks to little Wells for bringing back that guest, we now have the money to buy the divine blood."
When Chen Lingyou was mentioned, the expression on Wells's face became even more joyful.
"Mother! I told you, that guest said he had also seen a stone that glowed blue, and it was exactly the same as mine!"
"I told you I didn't lie to you and dad before! It really glowed blue before!"
Seeing Wells holding the small stone happily, his mother just smiled disapprovingly, obviously thinking that Chen Lingyou was just teasing the child.
"Okay, okay, mom will believe you. Little Wells won't lie."
Although Wells was naive, he could tell at a glance that his mother did not really believe what he said.
For a moment, his tone became a little anxious, and he pulled his mother's clothes, as if he wanted to go find Chen Lingyou together to verify it.
"This is really what the uncle said. He even promised me to explain it to you. Let's go find him together!"
Hearing Wells' words, the middle-aged woman's face suddenly became serious.
If Chen Lingyou was woken up and saw what he had done, the deal might be ruined.
In this way, if they lost the money, the two of them would be in danger again at night.
"No!" It seemed that Wells had heard such a stern tone for the first time and became a little at a loss for a moment.
"What's wrong, Mom? Can't I go find that uncle?"
The middle-aged woman seemed to realize that her tone was too harsh and immediately softened her tone.
"Child, it's not that mom doesn't want you to go play with that uncle, but he's a guest and he's already very tired after coming to our place. You can't disturb him from resting."
"How about this, tomorrow, mom will go with you to play with uncle tomorrow, okay?"
Although Wells is young, children from poor families mature much earlier and are therefore very sensible.
After listening to what his mother said, he quickly nodded obediently and agreed.
"Mom, I understand. I'll go find uncle tomorrow."
"Well, little Wells is really sensible!"
The middle-aged woman rubbed the child's head, praised him with a smile, and then turned to prepare dinner for tonight.
That night, while Chen Lingyou pretended to be asleep, the clock had already passed midnight and it was the early morning of the next day.
As soon as it got dark, there were actually no people wandering around in the village.
Even if there were people, they looked hurried.
As if they were afraid of something, they didn't say a word and rushed back to their homes.
Not long after, in Chen Lingyou's mental power that spread throughout the entire village, a sudden movement caught his attention.
He concentrated his mind and took a look, and saw that it was the strangest-looking house in the entire village.
I saw a pair of wooden doors that were originally closed were slowly opened from the inside, and a figure covered in a black cloak walked out.
There is no doubt that this must be the young man disguised as a "priest".
Chen Lingyou just watched quietly, without any unusual expression on her face.
From the moment he discovered the "method" left by the other party in the divine blood, he knew that there would definitely be some subsequent actions.
Under the gaze of a God's perspective, the young man in the black robe came out of the room and began to wander around every corner of the village as if on patrol.
As if he was already familiar with this job, his steps seemed to have some kind of pattern, neither fast nor slow, and even the route seemed to be predetermined.
In the dark room, Chen Lingyou had sat up without knowing when.
As he expected, the so-called "divine blood" had no practical use.
However, judging from the other party's current behavior, this previous behavior can no longer be called fraud.
After all, although the divine blood is fake, the other party is patrolling the village every night right now, which can be regarded as a kind of protection.
As expected, that consciousness seemed to be affected by Chen Lingyou and did not dare to appear again the whole night, let alone make any noise.
The young man seemed to be used to getting nothing, and at dawn, when no one came out, he returned to the strange house.
Chen Lingyou did not show up that night either.
The two previous contacts made him realize that the consciousness was not like a real living being.
It's more like... a machine that has not yet fully developed its intelligence, and it doesn't have the ability to learn from its mistakes...
