Whether it was good fortune or Anning's talent finally being discovered, on the third day after the recording of this episode of Angel Sanatorium ended, Anning received a phone call.
The caller was a middle-aged man. His tone was somewhat unnatural, tinged with shyness and embarrassment, but when he spoke to An Ning, his tone was very firm.
"Miss Anning, I am Wang Peng. After seeing your unique acting skills online, I would like to invite you to participate in the recording of my new film. I wonder if I would have the honor?"
"Ding ding ding ding..."
The iron chain, as thick as a wrist, made a crisp clanging sound, instantly waking the boy lying on the deathbed.
The young man had his hair tied up high with a crown, dressed in white with black hair, and had a handsome and flamboyant appearance. If his lips were not pale and colorless, what an amazing young man he would be.
Before he could even look up at the person, he was pulled tightly into an embrace. The person holding him was burning hot, and their heavy breathing splattered on his fair neck, causing it to turn red.
The man murmured softly, "Master..."
The boy was startled back to his senses by the word "master," and abruptly pushed away the person who was hugging him from the front, shouting, "Who's your master? Don't touch me!"
He used a lot of force and easily pushed the person away when they were off guard.
"..."
My words trailed off, my eyes fixed on the scene behind me. After a long pause, I finally managed to stammer, "What—what are they doing?"
"He looks like a fair-skinned Taoist priest. You really can judge a book by its cover!"
I scoffed before I heard the middle-aged woman's words, "The worst is..."
But to our surprise, the thief actually exposed his whereabouts last night and was seen by Nianwenfan, a servant who came out to buy wine at night. Now, the owner of Nianwenfan has not yet completely surrounded the inn where the thief is staying, ensuring that not even a fly can get out.
"Master...Master, you must have made a mistake that time. This scoundrel said he saw the Paper Kite Girl's handkerchief under me. You're definitely wrong!"
Hua Ge coughed abruptly, startled by my words, and sat up abruptly. "What?"
The informant, the servant, walked last. Relying on his memory, he reached the door of the white-robed Taoist priest's room from the previous night. With a haughty shrug, he kicked open the door and muttered, "That good-for-nothing Taoist priest of his, he'd better wait..."
As I spoke, I quickly moved closer and, with an extremely slow motion, grasped the palate that had been there for so many years. I looked down at the other person and said, "He said he would always be with you."
It's that same dream again. Ever since I was four years old and fell into the water and hit my head, certain absurd yet incredibly real scenes have been frequently appearing in my dreams.
"I could leave him alone in those deep mountains and forests," Hua Ge thought for a while and then brought him back.
The scoundrel was not referring to the bed board, but to someone else under the bed board.
-
At the same time, a faint sound came from my doorway, the floor shaking from a few people walking quickly.
He probably just fainted.
What if it's looking for me?
At that time, Hua Ge did not use any magical artifacts for lighting; he walked backwards entirely by instinct, and accidentally stepped on something.
Looking out the window at the still dim sky, Ning Da breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the aura was powerful, it was indeed a living person.
My master advised me to pay close attention, as I was born with a very bad destiny and would be hindered by such things.
A middle-aged man with heavy makeup stepped in front of a woman dressed in black, chattering incessantly, trying to make me doubt myself once again.
Hua Ge listened, but not entirely. I would always consciously or unconsciously avoid actions that would lead me into danger in my dreams.
The bed in that inn was placed diagonally opposite the door; you could see the person lying under the bed as soon as you opened the door.
This is something I found last night while chasing this robber. It's been around for years.
The person who had fainted in the deep forest was fortunate enough to be stepped on by me, and that's how I discovered him.
Early that morning, as everyone waited for the sun to rise, Qifeng Town, located at the foot of the Qingtian Sect, the number one sect in the heavens, was about ten minutes away. The reason was that the thieves who had kidnapped dozens of girls in January from Nianningda, a famous brothel outside Qifeng Town, had been found.
And in the dream, it said that I would meet the woman in the dream for the first time in the Qingtian Sect's small competition when I was 22 years old, so I went on a journey that year.
He glared at the man he had pushed back two steps, and said, word by word, "Let me leave, Feng Ye."
Hua Ge suddenly opened her eyes slightly. As far as the eye could see, there was a bustling crowd. We rushed backward, our destination being the inn where I was staying!
While I may not have any men I dislike, I certainly don't dislike women.
At this moment, the servant was seeing the scene under the small wooden bed. The image was very impactful to me, and I stammered for a long time before continuing, "I never imagined that it would be a thief who is taboo to be with women!"
As the faces drew closer, I wondered what would happen next.
There was more than one person who came!
"Have they heard? The thief who kidnapped dozens of girls from Nianwen Fan over the past month has been found!"
Even after hearing the commotion, Hua Ge remained motionless, lying under the bed, ready to observe the situation.
The burly man pointed to the bed frame on top of me, "He's sleeping with a woman."
It's not about rebellion.
The night was very white last night. Even though I was using a light-up device in this deep forest, all I could see was a white blur, and I couldn't see the path under my feet at all.
"Saving a life is better than building a pagoda."
