Shocking! A master of metaphysics has been mind-reading!

Xia Wange rubbed her forehead. So this was the nightmare. She thought it was something else, but she didn't expect to have such a mess of stool.

Pushing open the door, Xia Wange saw Lu Qiu sitting at the table peeling a pear. Seeing this, she immediately smiled and said, "Guess what I dreamt about last night?"

Lu Qiu glanced at the pear in her hand. "Did you dream that I was peeling a pear? Mingzhu just brought this up this morning."

"You're absolutely right." Xia Wange nodded. "But what's strange is that Fang Qingzi said she couldn't remember what she did in her dream. I do remember, but to be honest, if you can't figure it out, dreaming about such a scene in your dream is really stressful. I guess it's because..."

"So what did you dream about?" Lu Qiu asked. "I'm quite curious."

"Oh." Xia Wange grinned, "I dreamt that I stabbed you with a knife."

Lu Qiu was silent for a moment, then said, "Xia Wange, I thought we had a good relationship, but I didn't expect you to feel this way. What you think about during the day, you dream about at night..."

"Do you need me to explain how to do it?" Xia Wange asked with a smile.

"No need." Lu Qiu moved his wheelchair, handed the peeled pear to Xia Wan, and suddenly whispered, "Because I know."

With that, Lu Qiu twisted the fruit knife and plunged it directly into his heart.

Then he looked at Xia Wange with a sly smile, "See, isn't that right?"

Xia Wange took a bite of the pear, turned to look over, stood up, and said calmly, "Of course not."

As she spoke, she pulled out the fruit knife and inserted it into the left side of the other person's heart. "That's how it should be."

"Pretty good, the dream worked really well this time. What, did you break down? Did you get scared?"

Just as Xia Wange was about to cast a talisman to counteract it, she woke up in her bed again and muttered, "This Dream Demon is pretty fast. Every time it messes with my mindset, it takes up the time I have to draw a talisman."

It was a cloudy day outside the window, barely dawn. She glanced at her phone; it was only six o'clock. Xia Wange slapped herself first. It hurt, but with a dream demon that can create chain dreams, you can't detect yourself slapping yourself in your dream. It inflicts pain, and you can't see through it unless you find an absolute flaw. If there's even the slightest hesitation in your heart, you can't break the dream. You can only let the dream demon consume your mental energy and let it dissolve on its own.

Of course, if you can crack the code and firmly believe that you are currently in a dream, then what you consume is the dream charm.

Some people fall asleep and then suddenly jump off a building. This is because their mental energy has been completely exhausted by dream-like illusions, making it impossible for them to distinguish between dreams and reality.

Thinking of this, Xia Wange quietly pushed open the door and went out, just in time to see Lu Qiu getting up and sitting on his bed, rubbing his forehead, looking dazed.

The two saw each other, paused slightly in surprise, and said in unison, "Why are you up so early?"

Lu Qiuxian said, "I didn't sleep well last night. I kept dreaming that you were stabbing me with a knife."

Xia Wange pursed her lips slightly, guiltily looking away, "Yeah, it's quite easy to have nightmares here."

"Are you getting ready to go out now?" Lu Qiu asked as he saw Xia Wange walking out.

"Hmm, let's go out and take a look."

"I'll go too, I can't sleep anyway." Lu Qiu prepared to get out of bed, but after one attempt, his arm slipped and he couldn't prop himself up to transfer from the bed to the wheelchair. He looked at Xia Wange, "Could you... come and help me?"

Xia Wange nodded decisively, "Okay."

After saying that, she walked to the bedside and suddenly lifted Lu Qiu's wheelchair and smashed it at him.

The wheelchair vanished the instant it hit the ground, its expression contorted with rage. "And how did you find out?"

Without saying a word, Xia Wange tried to grab the other person to draw a talisman, but as soon as she touched the hem of the other person's clothes, she woke up in bed again.

It was already noon outside the window.

She sighed deeply.

This is indeed a bit tricky.

Moreover, this Dream Demon's methods are becoming increasingly sophisticated, and her imitations are becoming more and more accurate.

Even if she opens her third eye in her dream, the contents of that third eye will be faked, and she can only discover the flaws and break through them herself.

The flaw just now was that even if Lu Qiu was dying, he wouldn't let her help him.

Lu Qiu's leg was his greatest pain, and he would not ask for help unless he was truly unable to complete the task on his own.

He would never ask someone else to do things like getting out of bed.

There's another difficulty: the talisman she knows for curing dream demons needs to be drawn on the spot. Otherwise, if the dream demon discovers it, it can alter the dream within the dream. It has to be done without the other party's knowledge.

Suddenly, Xia Wange remembered what she had said to Lu Qiu before going to sleep. Logically speaking, her movements in her dreams were always so loud that they would definitely disturb Lu Qiu, but he wasn't by her side now...

Thinking of this, Xia Wange got up and went out.

She happened to see Lu Qiu carrying a tray of food as he came in. Before he could even speak, Xia Wange rushed over and punched him in the face. After he dodged the punch, she grabbed the tray and violently smashed it against him.

"Xia Wange! You're insane!" Lu Qiu dodged a punch and was shocked to see Xia Wange acting like a madwoman. "What's wrong with you? Why are you like this right after waking up? What did you dream about last night?"

"None of your business!" Xia Wange stepped on Lu Qiu's wheelchair, raising her hand to draw a talisman. "Stop pretending! You've already given yourself away!"

"Xia Wange, what are you saying?" Lu Qiu grabbed Xia Wange's shoulders, looking at her with pity. "Let's leave. Let's not worry about what's going on here. I'll take you away."

"So this is a delaying tactic, huh?" Xia Wange remained unmoved. After searching around and finding no cinnabar, she said speechlessly, "Dude, I'm a feng shui master, my specialty is drawing talismans. Even if you're afraid of cinnabar, you should at least leave me one on hand, right?"

Lu Qiu's worried expression gradually changed as she sat in the wheelchair.

He pointed speechlessly behind Xia Wange, "They're all there, go get them yourself."

Xia Wange turned around and found herself awake in bed again.

She glanced around and saw that no one was around, then rushed out, grabbed a knife, and was about to slash Lu Qiu.

After fighting for a while, seeing that Xia Wange was using deadly force and that he firmly believed this was a dream, he broke down, "What is it this time?! I gave you all the cinnabar! Draw a talisman! What weakness did I reveal this time?!"

Xia Wange remained silent, her face tense as she finally managed to control the other person. She then raised her hand, bit her finger, and prepared to draw a talisman.

"I'm not going to mess with you anymore! I give up! I give up! Fine! I can't afford to mess with you!"

After she finished speaking, amidst the other person's devastating roar, Xia Wange felt a lightness in her body, and all her senses returned. She slowly opened her eyes and found Lu Qiu sitting beside her, looking at her with worried eyes. Outside the window, it was pitch black, but the room was lit by warm lights.

Feeling somewhat tired, Xia Wange closed her eyes again. After a moment, she asked, "Was I making a lot of noise just now?"

"It's quite big."
