Chapter 23: Escape Plan
Ban Ying felt that the back of her head hurt a lot, as if someone was rubbing her scalp with sandpaper, and at the same time, she was constantly beating with a hammer. The pain made it impossible for him to sleep properly, and he wanted to get up, but he couldn't open his eyes, and he didn't have the strength to move his hands and feet.
This state lasted for a long time, until the brain finally succeeded in controlling a finger to move slightly, and the ability to move slowly recovered. He still remembered what he had done before he fainted. First, he was surrounded by a group of thugs and was in a trap. In order to get out of the trap, he controlled Luna and let the girl drive away. Immediately afterwards, he controlled a horned man, rescued Zhang Qiang's wife and daughter under his cover, and took them to the prison island.
By the way, how are the mother and daughter doing now?
Ban Ying thought that the two of them were trying to turn over, and used all her strength to break open their eyes. What appeared in front of me was a green tropical forest, which should be a sea of trees on the island.
He had been here twice before, both on the beach. I have also walked along the beach to the reef beach where the village slaughterers lived. This is the first time I have come to the inside of this sea of trees.
Ban Ying had just sat up with her body propped up when an unfamiliar female voice came from behind her.
"Son of Banyang, are you okay?"
Ban Ying followed the voice and looked back, and a white woman at least sixty years old was smiling at him. The old woman had dark hair mixed with a large amount of gray hair, and her long hair was curled in a mess and coiled behind her head. She was dressed in a similar outfit to that of the Village Slaughterer, a hot-looking black robe, except that she didn't have a hood covering her face.
"You are?"
"The burner of the city is a sinner." The old woman smiled kindly, "When I was twenty-five years old, I failed to take care of my pets, let them escape and burn down a city. Now I can't remember how old I am. ”
"Where is the city?" Ban Ying asked, and he didn't know why he was asking this.
The old woman replied, "In a terrible bedroom, it's a city of ordinary people, but the owner is a magician. ”
"Another bedroom...... Other worlds? ”
"That's right. You should go to that world and live for a while. This way you will be able to live in this prison with peace of mind. ”
"I'm the warden." Ban Ying struggled to stand up straight, "I won't live here forever. ”
The old woman smiled and shook her head, looking at the purple sky overhead.
"I don't think so."

In the dense sea of trees on Prison Island, the informant and Lily Demon were struggling to move among the trees. The two of them kept pushing aside the thick vines and leaves that blocked their way, looking for Ban Ying, who had been snatched by the City Burner.
Just half an hour ago, the duo, who had been squatting on the beach, found Ban Ying and two other women in the living room appearing out of thin air and fainting on the beach. This means that the three-month prison escape they have been planning has finally paid off.
About one-fifth of the entire southern part of the island is shrouded in a purple light curtain. The light curtain stretched all the way to the sea, and the beach where Ban Ying fainted was naturally shrouded in it.
Ever since learning of Ban Yang's death, the informant and Lily Demon have begun to prepare their escape plans. Compared to Ban Yang, his son is a little less sophisticated as a warden, and even with Ban Yang's brainwashing magic, the inmates on the island cannot pose a direct threat to him, but they can use some clever means to achieve similar results.
In order to leave the boring world and return to the living room, the informer finds one of his prisoner friends and asks him for help to create an 'enclosed space' over the beach where Ban Ying arrived.
The so-called enclosed space is for 'magic', and the creatures in the purple light curtain cannot escape the light curtain in any way, that is, they cannot get out, and they cannot use magic to escape.
In other words, even the power of the prison key could not help Ban Ying return to the living room, and he could only stay within the light curtain and be imprisoned with the prisoners.
The magician who created the light curtain didn't know what the magic was used for, had no subjective evil thoughts, and would not conflict with Ban Yang's brainwashing technique. It's just that the light curtain unfolds slowly, and it takes a full hundred days to unfold from the maker's house to the beach.
In the informer's plan with Lily Demon, the two turn off the light curtain as a condition of negotiation, forcing Ban Ying to take the two of them out of this world. They were pretty sure that Ban Ying, a mortal living in the living room metropolis, would never be able to survive on this island. He may hold out for a while, maybe for a few months, but eventually he will give up his resistance and agree to his terms.
All it takes is an oath to keep the spell, years of imprisonment will be over, and the wonderful world of the living room will be in front of you.
Unfortunately, there are always some surprises with the plan. The presence of the light curtain affected the lives of several other prisoners, including the burners.
The whistleblower and Lily Demon are not very familiar with this bedroom faction, and they have no personal feelings. The City Burner was dissatisfied with their approach and realized their plans, so he followed them.
When Ban Ying and Zhang Qiang's wife and daughter appeared on the beach, the city burner shook his robes and immediately turned into a cloud of black mist and swept the three away, not knowing where they had fled.
The Informer and Lily Demon didn't know much about tracking magic, not even the magic that could help them navigate the woods. Therefore, the two of them could only strengthen their flesh to ensure that their skin would not be cut by stones, grass and trees, and then cast an expulsion spell to drive away the annoying bloodthirsty insects, and slowly searched the forest.

Ban Ying had seen this purple light curtain when he came before.
The burner said that he had already guessed the stupid trap set by the two 'parlor imps'. In order to prevent Ban Ying from releasing the prisoner, she chose to help.
Ban Ying was in dire need of the strength to protect herself when she came here for the second time. In his opinion, the two at that time could have led themselves into the light curtain, but they didn't. In fact, with his vigilance at the time, he would never have entered such a suspicious purple area.
"You believe what I say?" The City Burner was a little disappointed, "Son of Banyang, you should be more suspicious, get used to doubting, don't trust others so easily." ”
"I believe you're because I was reminded before."
At this time, Ban Ying had no wounds left on his body, and with his permission, the burner took out a stone that could heal his wounds, boiled it in water, and brought him the boiled water to drink. The stone looked no different from a normal pebble, but the bowl of boiled water made him recover in an instant. It's like eating fairy beans in "Dragon Ball".
Ban Ying gave the village slaughterer's warning, and then observed the expression of the city burner. The two men were dressed similarly, both were bedroom parties, both were women, and both had discovered the whistleblower's little trick with Lily Demon. Even the name has the feeling that the latter is an upgraded version of the former. It seems that these two have something to do with each other.
In fact, Ban Ying didn't fully believe these words, but just showed that he believed them, which was safer.
The city burner did not react when he heard the name of the village slaughterer, but blamed Ban Ying, "Since you have been reminded, why did you run back again." Although you are Ban Yang's son, he didn't force you to take over this prison, did he? Isn't it good to be a mortal well? ”
Speaking of this, Ban Ying finally had the opportunity to ask about the whereabouts of Zhang Qiang's mother and daughter. That's what he's most concerned about right now. He didn't plan to let the mother and daughter stay permanently, and he didn't want to return to Zhang Qiang with the two 'traversers'. So before they leave, they need the magician to erase their memories, and it seems that the informant can do this.
"You ask the two children?" The City Burner snorted softly through his nose, "They are just ordinary people, but you have led them across the 'Two Realms Gate', do you still expect them to survive?" ”
With that, the burner pointed in a direction as she placed the bodies of the mother and daughter on several large leaves of the sara. The two of them died of brain atrophy caused by the depletion of their magical power, and the shrinkage of their brains into shriveled walnuts was usually a matter of moments, but there was no pain.
If a life wants to cross the 'Gate of the Two Realms' and enter other worlds, it must pay a certain amount of mana as a toll fee. As the son of a magician, Ban Ying has a lot of magic in his body, although he doesn't know it. And ordinary people have magic attached to their brains, but only a little bit. Because of his ignorance of magic, Ban Ying killed the mother and daughter, and he couldn't escape this human life account.
