When they find someone who can control the monsters, they only need to transport the machine to the palace with the help of the Third Prince. They can then use the machine to make the monsters leave the old emperor's dream and control them to kill everyone in the palace.
This is much easier than fighting the army head-on.
The young male cultivator enthusiastically pulled Yu Tong to his room and took him to change into a maid outfit.
Xiang Qiumeng crossed her arms and talked to Yu Tong with her back to them.
She probably wanted to get some information about Yu Tong, asking him who took him out of school and who he had offended before coming here.
Yu Tong lowered his head, looking shy and weak.
His eyes looked ignorant and pitiful, and his face looked like a minor, so Xiang Qiumeng couldn't bear to continue lying to him.
The two chatted for a while, and Yu Tong heard some information from Xiang Mengqiu's words.
The monsters trapped in dreams indiscriminately attack the souls imprisoned there. Souls eaten by monsters will be completely shattered.
At present, only the palace is relatively safe, and everyone is taking refuge in the palace.
However, there are several exits leading to the outside world hidden in the dream. They will suddenly open at a certain moment, and the monsters near the exits will run out of the dream.
As for what they will do after leaving the dream, Xiang Qiumeng and the others have no idea.
Although the place outside the palace was very dangerous, Xiang Qiumeng felt that she could not just sit there and wait for death.
In order to find a chance to escape, she would follow the expedition team composed of monks every day to look for the exit hidden in the dream.
The plan is that once an exit is opened, they will run out and tell the truth to the outside world before the monsters arrive.
Tell them that people from the three major families are secretly imprisoning monks from the Imperial Cultivation Academy and raising monsters in the old emperor's dreams.
Xiang Qiumeng said that he was lucky and had successfully escaped once.
Unfortunately, outside the exit was not the street or college she had imagined, but a high-tech laboratory.
It was filled with scientific instruments that she couldn't understand, and the machines were covered with densely packed arrays of techniques for possessing bodies and entering dreams.
Only her soul escaped; without her body she couldn't go far.
Fortunately, she found one among the machines with the words "enter the dream" written on it.
Xiang Qiumeng felt that this thing should be able to allow her to enter other people's dreams.
So she gritted her teeth and fiddled with it for a while, and successfully entered Shanzha Meimei's dream and passed the message to her.
Yu Tong asked hesitantly: "Why don't you choose to go to someone else's dream? For example, a school teacher, or the eldest princess of the empire?"
Xiang Qiumeng had a strange expression on her face. "I didn't know how to use that machine, and I ended up in the dream across from me. And there were so many things I wanted to say, but I couldn't say them in my dream. Now that I think about it, maybe it wasn't just luck that day, but someone was trying to use me to set a trap."
Yu Tong nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
Through chatting with the two, he found that the monks imprisoned in the dream were living a hard life.
Their function seems to be to attract and suppress monsters.
With the souls of these monks around, the monsters were completely focused on devouring the souls hidden in the palace. This left them with no energy to wreak havoc in their dreams.
The crisis comes not only from the monsters outside, but also from the emperor in the palace.
The old emperor was indeed a good king who was benevolent and loved his people, but he was not a good person.
Perhaps due to excessive stress, he often loses his temper in his dreams, chops off people's heads at the slightest provocation, and sees everyone as a bad person.
The point is that he is also very nice. Every time after he loses his temper, he will find someone to applaud him.
It was said that before Xiang Qiumeng and Xiao 0, the male cultivator, entered, the Dog Emperor forcibly insulted a male cultivator who was imprisoned in his dream. Afterwards, he fed the man's soul to the monsters outside.
The monks trapped in the dream gathered together every day to discuss how to kill him.
They were also worried that if they really killed the old emperor, the palace in their dream would disappear, and they would be exposed to the claws of monsters.
Yu Tong was a little confused when he heard this, "Male cultivator?"
Xiang Qiumeng nodded and said, "When the old emperor was young, he liked women. When he got older, his taste changed and he began to like little boys."
She turned around and looked Yu Tong up and down. "Your type is very much in line with his preferences. The male cultivator who was killed last time was almost the same type as you."
The male cultivator next to him suddenly covered his face with his hands. "I was wondering why your pajamas look so familiar. The male cultivator who was murdered was wearing the same clothes as you when he first entered the dream. Could this be some kind of secret code, implying that you will also be targeted by the Dog Emperor?"
Yu Tong was not nervous at all, instead his eyes lit up.
Wouldn't that mean he had many opportunities to get close to assassinating the emperor?
Oh my god, is it so good?
When the system saw his expression, it knew what he was thinking about.
The host's mind had been a bit off, and it couldn't help but advise: "Xiao Yu, stop thinking about seducing the old emperor and take care of your body."
'I don't think so.'
"You do. You just think you fit the old emperor's aesthetic taste. If there's a need to assassinate the emperor in the future, you can use your beauty to seduce him and approach him openly."
The system smoked a cigarette with a serious expression.
[Let's not even talk about whether your husband, Chen Ge, will be angry, or whether the CP fans will be unhappy. I think you should pay more attention to yourself and stop believing your stupid parents' nonsense. Only pimps would say things like, "People are books. The more people read a book, the better it proves it is."]
A family industry was guessed by the system. Yu Tong coughed dryly, feeling a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, the dream cat prop, which had been silent all this time, suddenly responded.
Yun Mingchen was dreaming about his little kitten.
At the same time, Xiang Qiumeng invited Yu Tong to join the victims' self-built team of "all monks unite to fight against monsters and the Dog Emperor."
