"Feeling a tingling or numb sensation?"
I was slightly taken aback, not expecting Ji Xinglan to experience such a tingling sensation.
Could it be that the painting was so powerful that it caused Ji Xinglan to react directly?
Or perhaps the evil spirit that was draining Ji Xinglan's power had already arrived, only to be driven away by Pikachu.
Either way, it's good news.
I told Ji Xinglan everything that had happened through telepathy.
"So that's how it is! Uncle Chen! I'm sorry, I shouldn't have lied to you before!"
In the painting, Ji Xinglan actually shed tears.
I don't know why my nose started to sting.
"Let's not talk about that now, I'll try my best to get you out!" I kept trying to compose myself.
The good news is that there is now a way to replace Ji Xinglan, but the bad news is that I have no way to remove Ji Xinglan from this painting.
After I put Ji Xinglan's painting away, I put it back into the album and then went to Zhou the Blind's room.
I started trying to call him Blind Zhou.
"Master Chen, are you finished?"
When he saw me push the door open and come in, Blind Zhou was quite happy.
I nodded and told him that it was all over, and then recounted everything that had happened before.
After hearing this, Zhou the Blind Man's eyes lit up.
"I want to go and see that thunderous beast you mentioned!"
Zhou the Blind Man spoke in a trembling voice, as if making his final request.
I nodded in agreement.
Anyway, according to the timeline, Zhou the Blind Man was a person from the Qing Dynasty, which is completely different from our era.
Even if Zhou the Blind saw it, he probably wouldn't recognize it.
Under my guidance, Blind Zhou emerged shakily, and when he saw the yellow rat on the scroll, he showed a surprised expression.
Although it was only for a fleeting moment, I still managed to capture it keenly.
I sensed something was off, because from Zhou the Blind's behavior, it seemed like he recognized this thing.
Normally speaking, someone from the Qing Dynasty wouldn't have seen anything that would exist in my era. After all, these are from two different dimensions.
But judging from Zhou the Blind's behavior just now, this guy must have met Pikachu before.
Instantly, a terrifying intuition surged into my mind: Damn it, I've been set up.
I have a feeling that this blind man Zhou might not be as simple as he seems on the surface.
Perhaps from the very beginning, this was a trap, a trap set for us.
"You know him?"
I didn't want to alert them, but the old Taoist priest spoke up directly.
I glared at Lao Dao and said, "You're such a chatterbox."
"I've seen it before! I've seen it in my dreams!"
Zhou the Blind Man spoke with absolute certainty, and after listening to him, I even began to doubt myself.
Could it be that I'm sensing something wrong?
"Have I seen you in a dream?"
He made a suspicious sound.
I don't really believe it. If he dreamed of a cat, tiger, or leopard, I could understand, but he told me he dreamed of General Pi.
Why doesn't he mention that he dreamed of a mewtwo?
"It's definitely it! It's exactly this thing! Master Chen, I'm certain that the dream I had before was about this thing!"
Zhou the Blind Man held the painting and examined it for a long, long time before finally speaking decisively.
I have no way of knowing anymore.
The main problem was Old Knife. That kid alerted the enemy at the beginning, disrupting my plans and giving Blind Zhou an opportunity.
Whether the blind man was faking it or not, it's impossible to tell now.
We can only wait for him to admit it himself.
"It's alright, Blind Zhou. You should go back to your room and rest now. Leave this to us. We'll find out what kind of evil spirit it was tonight soon!"
I waved my hand, telling Zhou the Blind Man to go back to his room and rest first, and that the rest of us would handle the rest.
"Alright! You haven't eaten yet, have you? I'll cook for you first. How can you fight demons and monsters if you don't eat your fill!"
As he spoke, Zhou the Blind walked into the kitchen.
Actually, what they called their kitchen was just a stove. He simply took firewood from the side, lit it, and threw it in.
Then they cooked for us.
None of them suspected Zhou the Blind.
After all, this thing looks harmless and sounds like a blind person.
"You were a bit too talkative just now. I didn't want to alert them!"
After seeing Zhou the Blind go to cook, I glared at Lao Dao. That Lao Dao kid is really talking too much.
"Brother Chen! You also think there's something wrong with this old guy, right? I feel like this old geezer is just a modern person pretending to be us!"
Old Dao sneered, then laid his cards on the table.
"Is it a modern person?" I raised my voice to Luo Tianhe. Although I had some doubts earlier, it was still a bit hard to believe that he would say it so directly.
"Look at his behavior, he doesn't act like someone from ancient times at all! I've read some books before, and although people in ancient times were poor, they still had all the proper etiquette!"
Old Dao continued to lower his voice and explain to me, word by word.
I nodded slightly, because I knew that Lao Dao was right.
Even some poor people are well-educated and polite, and they still have the proper etiquette.
On the other hand, this blind man Zhou seems to lack manners.
His behavior is more like that of a modern person.
"Moreover, I not only think he's a modern person, I also think he's a woman!"
Lao Dao really doesn't hold back when it comes to saying something shocking.
"It's a woman?"
I was even more confused!
This old knife guy really keeps surprising me.
I could hardly believe what he said.
"A-Dao is right. I've seen a lot of women, and I had the same feeling just now!"
This blind man's behavior was weak and feeble, lacking any masculine vigor whatsoever!
She does have many similarities to the women I've met before!
Luo Tianhe couldn't help but chime in.
After hearing that, I felt even more chills down my spine.
Wow, wow!
First, they told me that this Blind Zhou was not a good person. Now they're telling me that Blind Zhou isn't from ancient times. Then they tell me that Blind Zhou is actually a woman!
"Then just tell me, damn it, that this Zhou the Blind was set up by Ji Xinglan!"
I rolled my eyes.
If you're going to be imaginative, then go all the way.
"That's not quite right! Ji Xinglan and this blind man Zhou have completely different vibes, but to be fair, I did sense a trace of Ji Xinglan's aura in the blind man Zhou!"
Luo Tianhe frowned slightly, then voiced his guess.
"He actually carries Ji Xinglan's scent! Why didn't you say so sooner?"
I moved closer to Luo Tianhe and spoke softly.
"If I had known earlier, I would have said so long ago. Why wait until now?"
But Old Chen, you should still be careful!
Luo Tianhe gave me some more instructions.
