Chapter Eighty-Eight: From Truth to Illusion, Single-mindedness and Dual-Purpose

When Chen An received the task given by Pei Xiu, he was very puzzled at first.

However, Pei Xiu emphasized that the origin of the father and daughter may be very problematic, and it may even be related to the conspiracy between the Cao Gang and the county guard.

Chen An thought about it again and again, but decided to tell the truth.

He really admired the girl named Xiaohong, but because of his admiration, he hoped that the other party was innocent.

What's more, "matter" may not refer to participation, but may be included in the list of human sacrifices......

Then Chen An has to make sure that there is no problem between the two.

In fact, he didn't think there would be anything wrong with the other party.

This old ape's head appeared in Dongting Lake about ten years ago, and at that time, it was the time when the Chen family began to make a fortune.

At that time, he had Xiaohong by his side, commensurate with father and daughter.

For ten years, this old ape head has been fishing in this Dongting Lake for a living, and has never behaved abnormally, just like other normal fishermen, living an ordinary life.

The old ape's real name is not known.

It was only because the arms were strange and as long as ape arms that they got such a nickname.

Over time, everyone simply took this nickname as the name of the old ape, and he himself acquiesced.

But this is not an uncommon thing, because a large number of fishermen in Dongting Lake, five or six out of ten of whom are black households, do not know their real names, or it is too normal to be reluctant to say their real names.

As for Xiaohong's real name......

There should only be two people in the world who know, one is the old ape's head, and the other is ...... It's Chen An.

Chen An did not think to investigate her origins.

But this time, he had to investigate to prove her innocence.

"Her real name is Red Snow Peony, and Red is not a first name, but a surname."

Chen An said seriously: "She is from Dongning County, Liang Kingdom. ”

The token he was holding in his hand was engraved with a number of sound spells, which could be used to communicate for a short time, but it required a large amount of aura.

It looks convenient, but basically the other side can only contact him unilaterally.

With Chen An's aura, he can't hold a few breaths.

However, if it is important, it is generally necessary to communicate in person, otherwise there will inevitably be a risk of impersonation.

Pei Xiu was silent for a while, and seemed to be urgently sending someone to call for information.

Since they are from Liang Guo, it is very easy for them to check.

What's more, this name is not easy to rename.

"Tu Zhengguan" originally relied on the power of the palace and the imperial court, and it couldn't be easier to find a Liang Guoren.

Soon, Pei Xiu got a reply.

He paused and said, "Chen An, the red snow peony ...... Dongning County."

"Nobody."

Chen An's pupils constricted, and he immediately said: "Impossible, she told me personally, she can't lie to me about this kind of thing, and it doesn't make sense at all." ”

"Make up an identity, and you can't let her get something from me...... What's more, you can know the truth and falsehood with a check. ”

"Don't worry."

Pei Xiu muttered: "Then you can tell me in detail, everything you know about this identity, all the things she and Ling have said about this, the more detailed the better." ”

Chen An said: "I'm not in a hurry. ”

Pei Xiu said: "Okay, okay, you're not in a hurry." ”

Chen An: "......"

He was silent for a while, and said quietly: "She said that the Hong family is a wealthy family in Dongning County, and the family runs a cloth business, and the head of the family is kind and generous......"

It's really not too big or small.

It is so meticulous that a dog raised by the Red family has a few patterns on its belly, and what kind of tree is planted in the corner of the house.

Pei Xiu looked at the changes in the file in his hand, and the people over there acted quickly, and they had already given out all the information of the Hong family accordingly.

The result is......

It's exactly the same as Chen An's description!

Pei Xiu couldn't help but be speechless.

If it weren't for the fact that it was clearly written that the head of the Hong family had no daughter at all, only one son, he would have believed it.

But if you are an outsider, you can't know all the details of the Hong family at all, this is really weird!

This red snow peony is like a ghost living in the red family......

Pei Xiu was undecided, so he could only tell Chen Kuang the information as it was.

……

Qi Sibai frowned: "This little red, could it be that he is still immersed in the illusion and mistakenly thinks that he is the daughter of the Hong family?" ”

Chen Kuang shook his head: "As you said before, being affected by the demon knife and going crazy, you should also think that you are another identity, and this identity will be very different from the original identity, or even diametrically opposite." ”

"But one thing won't change, and that's their names!"

"That's what led them to end up in hallucination."

"But this Xiaohong seems to have made up an identity for herself based on reality."

"However, so many details given by Pei Xiu prove that her identity is indeed true."

"Combined with the fact that Tie Baiyuan values her so much, and sees her as an important reason why he can let go of the illusion, I have an idea-"

Chen Kuang paused, and then muttered and stopped talking.

Qi Sibai waited quietly, but Shen Meinan next to him couldn't sit still, and hurriedly patted the table: "Say it quickly!" What is the identity of this little red! ”

This girl seems to have treated this matter as a suspense drama and is chasing serialization.

Now that it is being cut off in a wonderful place, it is naturally impatient.

Chen Kuang then said:

"This little red, it is possible, is a person in the illusion."

Qi Sibai's pupils constricted: "A person in the illusion? ”

Shen Meinan's mouth grew up, and it took a long time to close it, and then he said in confusion: "No, the people who were affected by the demon sword back then didn't all enter the illusion realm, and when they came out, they were all replaced by people in the illusion realm." ”

Chen Kuang shook his head: "But they just changed their spirit and cognition. ”

"And this red snow peony, from beginning to end, does not exist in reality."

"She is a person who was embodied by Tie Baiyuan from the illusion!"

Shen Meinan thought for a long time: "In other words, Xiaohong, in fact, it should be part of the too illusory realm?!" ”

Chen Kuang nodded.

Qi Sibai said in a deep voice: "I see......

"That Tie Baiyuan is not crazy at all, he is because he brought out his daughter in the illusion, so he is sure that the illusion is real!"

Chen Kuang said: "So I was thinking just now, since he was able to bring out part of the illusion, then...... Perhaps, other people in reality can also enter the illusion. ”

"Just figure out how exactly he brought people out."

"This should be the key to breaking the game."

Qi Sibai immediately stood up: "Without further ado, I'll go find Tie Baiyuan." ”

Chen Kuang stopped him: "It's useless for you to go, let Chen An go." ”

"That Red Snow Peony will tell him these things, presumably it is not uninteresting to him, provoke her to give it a try."

After that, he asked Pei Xiu to give another task to the depressed Chen An, and Qi Sibai said that he had seen some vague destiny again and needed to confirm it again.

Chen Kuang and Shen Meinan returned to the Chen family's guest room.

Shen Meinan couldn't help but ask, "Then if you can go in...... When the time comes, who will go in? ”

Chen Kuang shrugged: "Me." ”

Shen Meinan hesitated: "Then what if you can't get out?" ”

Chen Kuang smiled: "You're worried about me." ”

I thought Shen Meinan would be shy, but I didn't expect the girl to nod heavily: "Worried." ”

This made Chen Kuang silent.

He changed the topic and said: "Let's go, I don't know if I can let Tie Baiyuan cooperate, let's sleep first, and I'll talk about something tomorrow." ”

Chen Kuang sent Shen Meinan into the guest room and returned to the east wing by himself.

He was actually a little worried, if he entered the illusion realm, how should he deal with the affairs of the Chen family?

But things soon came to an end.
