Chapter 244: Deep Within the Embroidered Bed (Part 2)
It naturally wouldn't be Jiang Caibin sleeping on such an exquisite and delicate boudoir embroidered bed, covered with a rose-red brocade quilt.
Instead, it was a weird object.
Fortunately, this time, Liu Sheng was not facing such a weird object alone.
"Sister..."
As a crisp sound rang out, a warm body pressed close.
Liu Sheng turned her head to look, and Ling Xiaoshu, a young girl hugging a small bear doll, was clinging to her, quite curious about the "person" on the bed.
Little Tentacle also emerged, rubbing against Liu Sheng's shoulder, its small eyes glaring fiercely at those "bad people."
The death rule hadn't been triggered yet; everything was calm, as long as she ignored the faces full of malice staring at her.
From the moment she stepped into the room, she had been entrapped by Jiang Cai Zhi and that suspicious butler, entering this Weird Domain.
It was now confirmed that from beginning to end, the one who used Jiang Caibin to scheme against her was Jiang Caibin's cousin—Jiang Cai Zhi.
However, Liu Sheng couldn't understand.
The two had no grievances, and it was only their first meeting last time, yet he acted against her, attempting to use her hand to kill Jiang Caibin, which was truly perplexing.
Liu Sheng always felt there must be other reasons behind it, and even other people.
It's just that with too little information currently, the specific truth cannot be deduced.
As for why Liu Sheng still stepped into it, knowing it was a trap...
Of course, it was to earn points!
Previously, Liu Sheng had few opportunities to use points; after all, she had already exchanged the tian yan stone that could be redeemed with points, and she really didn't understand what use points had.
Now, there was finally another way to use points: entering the high dimension world behind the Supreme God.
It is now known that the Supreme God should also be a created entity.
That's why there was a 【Work Log】.
That's why there were such work records for compiling, generating, and operating the "Supreme God."
But even such a "man-made object" possessed such extraordinary power, able to lord over everyone in her world, able to generate such vast energy to influence this world, from life evolution to scientific technology.
This was enough to show that the creator behind the "Supreme God" was an even more powerful existence, possessing technology far beyond Liu Sheng's world, and even far beyond this dimension.
Liu Sheng was too curious about the truth of the Supreme God, about the truth of this world and even all worlds.
Therefore, she had to re-enter the high dimension world behind the Supreme God, perhaps only then could she glimpse a sliver of truth.
However, one point was consumed every ten seconds.
With only tens of seconds like before, she couldn't see anything at all; she was merely vaguely carried along by the world, completely unable to comprehend the true appearance of the high dimension world, let alone learn more.
So she needed more points.
However, the world told her that for her, the only way to earn points currently was through high dimension analysis.
【It seems the world's statement has reservations; perhaps there will be other ways in the future.】
【But for now, we can only try to find weird objects that can be high dimension analyzed.】
【Sigh, I'm starting to miss the work in the Imperial Storage.】
【If we could apply for work in the Weaving Bureau's Imperial Storage after the imperial examination, that would be great...】
【The rank doesn't seem high.】
【But it's good if we can slack off!】
【Hey, hey, aren't we supposed to be working hard to earn points!】
So the topic was brought back to earning points.
However, weird objects that could be high dimension analyzed were hard to find, especially after losing the avenues of the Weaving Institute and Xiao Xiang House.
Fortunately, there was Jiang Cai Zhi.
Look, he immediately provided one!
It was truly like someone bringing a pillow just when you were feeling sleepy.
【Jiang Cai Zhi and the mastermind behind him, well done!】
Liu Sheng and her inner thoughts unanimously expressed their most sincere gratitude to them.
【World, you mean the thing on the bed can be high dimension analyzed, right?】
【Yes, but you need to touch its main body.】
Within the Weird Domain, the outside world could not peer in, so Liu Sheng confidently unleashed Little Tentacle, draining the hideous weird objects by the bed until only a mess of clothes remained on the floor.
Little Tentacle even let out a big burp.
【Strange, these weird objects aren't strong.】
【Even the one on the bed can't move at all.】
【That's normal. Jiang Cai Zhi's goal couldn't be to harm our lives, especially since we are still in his Jiang.
If we suddenly died, it would only bring unnecessary attention to their Jiang.
So, he's just repeating his old trick, using weird objects to manipulate, frame, and incriminate us, preventing us from leaving the Jiang cleanly.】
【I always feel this trick is very familiar, but where have I seen it before?】
Unfortunately, she couldn't recall it for now and had to set it aside.
Liu Sheng, who cherished her life greatly, stood far away at this moment, while Little Tentacle slowly approached the now unprotected embroidered bed.
Anyway, "Mama's" Clone were numerous, and her regeneration ability was strong.
Little Tentacle rolled its round eyes, curiously peering inside.
Earlier, with the heavy curtains, she couldn't see clearly, only knowing that there was extremely deep darkness within.
As she got closer, she saw the brocade quilt rise and fall ever so slightly, and the sound of breathing became clearer, sluggish and hoarse, as if from a congested lung.
The smell of blood was extremely strong, mixed with a putrid odor.
More Little Tentacles writhed closer, ready to react immediately if the weird object on the bed made any unusual movements.
However, that weird object did not move.
At the top of the brocade quilt was a face as white as porcelain, with features as beautiful as a painting.
However, due to fear, the entire face became particularly pitiable.
In her autumn-water-like bright eyes, the writhing tentacles were reflected, her pupils dilated, long lashes trembled slightly, tears hung beneath her eyes, on the verge of crying, and her pearly teeth gently bit her trembling red lips, even her already sluggish breathing quickened a few beats.
"Are you very afraid of me?" Liu Sheng's voice came from beyond the curtains.
That beautiful head trembled and nodded.
Being able to communicate was good.
Liu Sheng nodded slightly, lost in thought.
And this was actually a weird object that could feel fear towards people?
【In her eyes, you might not even be human.】 Liu Sheng reminded herself.
Indeed, from the perspective of the person on the bed, there were only overwhelming tentacles writhing before her, and many, many eyes rolling around.
As Little Tentacle's gaze swept around, Liu Sheng's eyes narrowed, and she quickly noticed something.
Judging by the size of the bulge in the quilt, the body covered beneath was not a complete human form.
It was deflated, perhaps even without limbs.
To verify her thoughts, Little Tentacle grabbed the corner of the quilt, preparing to slowly lift it.
Her sharp, delicate chin pressed tightly against the edge of the quilt, but this simply couldn't form any opposing force.
The brocade quilt was lifted, revealing the body beneath.
The scene "before her eyes" made Liu Sheng gasp.
There were no limbs, only a bright red stump with a section of white broken bone in the middle, crawling with maggots.
Moreover, not only were there no limbs, but her torso was also opened in the middle, all her internal organs were missing, leaving only an empty, crimson inner cavity.
No wonder her breathing was hissing and rattling; turns out, she didn't even have lungs.
No, if she weren't a weird object, she wouldn't be able to breathe in such a state.
Stared at and studied by Little Tentacle for a long time, her beautiful face was full of sorrow, her eyes closed, not daring to look again, her lips bitten through by her teeth, fresh blood flowing from the corners of her mouth onto the pillow.
Looking at her expression, she probably felt it was a great humiliation to be seen in such a ruined body.
Somehow, the object she saw hanging on the locust tree at the entrance, covered in white cloth, flashed through Liu Sheng's mind.
