I tried to push the iron door, and just as I expected, it was tightly closed. No matter how I pushed it, it didn't move at all.

"What are you doing? Are you possessed? Open the iron gate for me!" I yelled.

Upon closer inspection, I saw that the Hidden Evil Knife was in Su Yuexi's hand. I guess when Yunwen hugged me just now, she took the opportunity to lift up my knife and then moved it away. She did it by relying on the moment of distraction. I couldn't help but feel disappointed. I never thought that they hated me to such an extent. The continuous plan was to lock me up in this cell.

However, their eyes were filled with anxiety, as if they were guilty. They all hung their heads, but none of them moved or showed any intention of helping them out.

"Okay, stop playing. You won, okay? Open the cell quickly. You don't really want me to stay here for you to visit, do you? Do you want to lock me up and make fun of me this time?" I asked.

"No, no! Brother Zhou Bo, we have no ill intentions. Yunwen, please explain it clearly, otherwise he will hate us." Su Yuexi said anxiously.

"Miss Su, don't be afraid. Let me explain." Ling Shang said as she took two steps forward.

"No matter who of you says it, you must give me a reason that can convince me. Otherwise, you are plotting to murder me or conspiring with me. Even if I die, I will settle this account with each of you." I shouted.

"Zhou Lang, don't be anxious. Let me tell you slowly." Ling Shang walked forward, held onto the iron pillar of the cell, and pleaded.

I snorted coldly and leaned against the iron cell, giving them a chance to explain themselves.

"Zhou Lang, do you remember the black substance you ate?" Ling Shang asked.

I nodded and said, "I remember, but I haven't thought about it since the Dark Lord disappeared. After all, no symptoms have occurred. Why should I think about it? You are making a fuss. Are you just afraid of this and locked me up?"

She shook her head vigorously, swallowing in her throat, and said, "Do you really think nothing happened? A month ago, you and Miss Su returned to the post station. You were fine at first. I was in a coma at that time, but I regained consciousness under Miss Su's care. When Miss Su came downstairs to eat noodles with you, I could hear your laughter. Afterwards, you and Miss Su went upstairs and rested in the **. You were fine at first, but after falling asleep for a while..."

"What's the matter?" I asked immediately.

"Zhou Bo, when you woke up, do you remember that there was no one by the bed? Neither Miss Su nor Sister Lingshang were around? I was the only one watching you in the room?" Yunwen asked.

"I remember, and I also remember that you were holding a copy of 'The Demon Slayer Record' in your hand and reading it, and you avoided my eyes at that time, as if you were afraid that I would know. I guess you were planning to imprison me at that time, right?" I asked.

"I'll tell you why there was no one by the bed when you woke up that day, because... you went crazy. You suddenly got up from your sleep and attacked the people around you. Long hair began to grow all over your body. You opened your mouth wide and were about to bite Sister Lingshang's throat, and kept shouting, 'Fresh fox spirits, so good' and so on! We were all scared by you, but we couldn't wake you up. When we had no other choice, Miss Su took Sister Lingshang to the Bauhinia Cave to recuperate, and I ran to find the Golden Que Sword. After that, you went downstairs, first wanting to bite those poor red foxes, and then you wanted to bite Sanfu, but I drove them away with the Golden Que Sword. Finally, you went to the backyard, and I didn't know where you were going." Yunwen narrated, as if she could still feel the uneasiness she felt at that time.

"Why don't I have any impression?" I couldn't help but ask.

Yunwen shook her head, exhaled, and continued, "I hurriedly blocked the door to prevent you from going out and causing harm to others, but you knocked harder and harder, and I could only hold the Golden Sword to block the door, hoping that you would wake up. Unfortunately, you were like crazy, yelling and screaming, and finally rammed the door open, shouting some unbearable words, pinching my neck, and trying to shake off the Golden Sword. Fortunately, Miss Su came back at this time and recited a spell, and you slowly calmed down and collapsed on me."

I watched for a week and they all looked uneasy, as if the situation that night was replaying again. I could tell from their expressions that what they said was true.

"Even if what you said is true, it happens every night, how could I not notice it? Also, why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would definitely cooperate with you and wouldn't have relied on such a deceptive method to put me in the dungeon," I said.

"After that night, we all studied the book 'Record of Killing Demons'. The spell that Miss Su recited came from that book, so we have been using the methods in it to help you calm down and get through each night. However, your symptoms became more severe every night, and those spells gradually began to lose their effect on me. As for why I didn't explain it to you clearly, there is a reason." Yunwen said.

"What's the reason? Because you don't trust me and are afraid that I won't listen to you?" I asked.

"Zhou Lang, do you think the three of us really miss you that much? Since we are already yours and are willing to serve you for life, we naturally trust your character. In this case, how could we question you? But there are some unavoidable reasons. Please listen to Sister Yunwen's explanation." Ling Shang said.

At this time, Yunwen unbuttoned her coat and pulled down the collar of her underwear. She made a hissing sound in pain and a slight wrinkle appeared on her pretty fair face. There were many heavy bruises on the skin exposed by her pulling down the collar. Judging from the handprints and the width, only my palm could have done that. Also, judging from the scars, she had been injured many times, both fresh and old. If I'm not mistaken, these should be the suffering she has endured in the past month.

I was stunned. I could see that it was definitely me who did it, but I had no recollection of it at all.

Yunwen burst into tears and said, "If we hadn't had to, we would never do this. I've mentioned related things to you in the past month, but once I mentioned something sensitive, you would hit me and start to pinch my neck with a scary face. When the spell took effect and you gradually recovered, you would not remember anything that happened. I tried to tell you, but you were like a wild animal that could be angered at any time. Once I mentioned something sensitive, you would have an attack again..."

"So, I actually hit you?" I slumped on the ground, looking at my hands, and suddenly some quick flashes of memory flashed through my mind. Among them was the scene of Yunwen screaming. In that scene, at the first moment, my fingers were tightly strangling Yunwen's neck, and I felt my inexplicable anger.

I sneered, covering my head, and suddenly my mind started to feel dazed again. When the daze stopped, I found that I had grasped the iron cage bars tightly without knowing when, and the hair on top of my head was covered with dust, which showed that I had gone crazy again, and this reaction was caused by shaking the iron cage.

The three of them were already some distance away from me, and it was obvious that they were frightened just now.

Drink? In the past month, I have been living a carefree life, but I didn't know that Yunwen and the others had to endure my second personality to get it. Fortunately, after I went crazy this time, I didn't lose my memory. I wrote down everything they said, and now I really know the whole story.

Thinking that I would actually hit the woman I love the most, I couldn't help but slap myself, and then I felt that it was not enough, so I slapped myself again! The three girls immediately shouted to stop at the same time, ran to the cage, and looked at me with concern.

"I said I wouldn't hit women, but now you not only hit women, you hit my own woman. I really need to be taught a lesson. No one else can do it for me, I have to do it myself." As I said that, I slapped her again, and with a loud slap, my head really made a buzzing sound.

"Don't be like this! Zhou Bo, you didn't mean it. I know that wasn't you. I'm not showing this to you to make you blame yourself. I just want to tell you the truth. The spells cast by the three of us are becoming less and less effective. When I studied the book again today, I felt that I might not be able to control it anymore, so...so I came up with this bad idea and brought you here, because the book also said that the Demon Subduing Formation can suppress you so that you won't hurt innocent people, and this is where the mermaid was imprisoned, and that formation is there." She said.

I sighed, then nodded, and instinctively stayed away from them to avoid hurting them again. Seeing those horrific wounds, I realized that perhaps it was because of the existence of that formation that I did not lose my memory after going crazy just now.

They arranged it very reasonably, as it should be.

"Brother Zhou Bo, don't worry, we will stay here with you until we find a suitable way to solve the problem of dark matter." Su Yuexi said.

So, I cleaned the castle just now, it turned out to be a premeditated plan...
