The landlady used foam boxes there to grow a lot of vegetables and flowers, and also placed some miscellaneous items.

After they rented the house, these vegetables and flowers were given to them by the landlady, and she and An Ning usually take care of them together.

Because stray animals often visit the yard, they cleared out a corner and put clean water, cat food and dog food in it so that they can have something to eat when they pass by.

Qin An Ning, in particular, particularly liked looking at the yard from the window.

As for the string of colorful artificial crystal curtains, they were left behind by the landlady when she was renovating the house.

Even though Qin Zhen always thought it was ugly, she never took it down because Qin An Ning liked to open the window for ventilation, and the breeze would blow the bead curtain, making a slight "ding ding" sound.

What the white-haired boy saw was this curtain.

Qin Zhen took a deep breath and said affirmatively: "Where I am now is the boundary between two worlds."

On one side of the pearl curtain was the world of cultivating immortals in the book, and on the other side was the real world where she and Qin An Ning lived.

It's just that neither world can see the other's true appearance, but something like an illusion has been added with other scenes, or...

There is a slight overlap in space, but since everyone is in their own world, they can only see the scenes of their own world. Only in this way can they not notice the abnormalities.

For example, when they looked across the boundary, they saw decorations similar to those in the Crystal Palace, while what Qin An Ning saw through the boundary might be the same scenery in the yard as usual.

"For some unknown reason, the boundary between these two worlds overlaps subtly, and the boundary is blurred. Therefore, I can slightly sense the abnormality of the other world."

Xiang Qing was even more confused after hearing this: "Two worlds? What do you mean? Didn't you say that the water god is your friend? Your friend is... from another world?"

"Correct."

Xiang Qing frowned, still thinking.

"Ah, the other world refers to the realm of gods?" Xiang Qing asked.

Qin Zhen didn't know how to answer for a moment, because the Heavenly Dao obviously had too many restrictions on this and couldn't let her talk about the world of comics and novels.

But Jing Xing suddenly asked, "Do you know the Sky Demon Clan?"

"I know."

Even if other people don't know, the people from Poyun Sect must know it, right?

After all, their Poyun Sect lost their ancestor in the last battle between heaven and demons.

Xiang Qing replied without even thinking.

“They live outside the territory.”

Xiang Qing's breathing stagnated for a moment when she heard that. Then she turned back abruptly to look at Qin Zhen and took a breath of cold air.

"Hiss, Junior Sister, your friend is actually from the Sky Demon Clan!?"

Qin Zhen: "...I think Second Senior Brother just wanted to explain to you that there is another world outside our world."

However, the demon clan outside the domain?

Could it be that this thing really came from her original world?

What is the embodiment of this world?

Or did the plagiarist create that race in this fictional world based on a real person?

Anyway, there was no such race in Qin An Ning's original comics.

Qin Zhen was given new ideas by Xiang Qing's joke, but unfortunately, these were just her guesses.

Qin Zhen temporarily put that thought behind her. She waved the bead curtain in her hand and called out to everyone:

"Look at the shadow on the ground."

This time, everyone quickly discovered that something was wrong with the shadow.

Jingxing reacted the fastest.

"The shadows that don't move or waver are the shadows cast by the curtains of that world. In the blurred place of the boundary, they overlap."

"Yes!" Qin Zhen nodded affirmatively.

Xiang Qing suddenly realized a very frightening point——

"Wait, if they are two worlds, even if the boundary is blurred, why can we pass through them!?"

After Xiang Qing finished speaking, he took a deep breath and his eyes widened.

Her gaze swept across everyone one by one, finally landing on the bead curtain.

"Could it be that we are not from this world?"

Xiang Qing was completely unaware of the truth about himself in a certain sense.

They are all characters plagiarized into the novel, and naturally do not completely belong to this world.

Even though they were constantly assimilated into this fictional world under the arrangement of heaven and the plot, and their memories of the comics were erased, they were essentially characters created by Qin An Ning.

Therefore, as outsiders, they will not be completely confined by the boundaries of this world and can step into this vague boundary.

But because they are not real people in reality, they cannot see the real scenes through this vague boundary like Qin Zhen.

What's more...that scene seemed to be presented in a dream.

In order to cover up the boundary issue, Heaven "rationalized" the issue into -

Qin Zhen was dragged into a secret realm.

The other world has become a secret place in their eyes.

"No, why aren't you talking? Did I say something wrong again?"

The main hall of the Crystal Palace was too silent, which made Xiang Qing feel a little uneasy, so he quickly opened his mouth to ask.

But in response to her, Jing Xing suddenly patted her on the shoulder and said, "This time, you are right."

"what?"

"But none of that matters."

"Not important? But why do I feel like there's some big secret here..."

Jingxing shook his head affirmatively again.

“It doesn’t matter what the secret is or what the other world is. What matters is knowing who you are and living every day to the fullest.”

"Why?"

"If thinking about these things will only make you more upset and won't solve any practical problems, then don't worry about it in advance. It's better to use this energy to think about the present, which will make you more fulfilled. Even thinking about what to eat tonight is also good."

"But isn't this just escaping?" Xiang Qing didn't quite agree.

“Yes, but it works.”

Even Huai Xu nodded: "Don't dwell on this, it will easily breed inner demons."

What those who practice Taoism fear the most is the birth of inner demons.

Not to mention that Xiang Qing is indeed a person who easily gets stuck in a rut.

If her physical condition breeds inner demons, she will be more dangerous than ordinary people.

This danger is not only for her, but also for the people around her.

So over the years, in addition to Elder Fu Yao constantly deepening the restrictions and seals on Xiang Qing, Xiang Qing has also been trying to be a cheerful, optimistic, and even a little heartless person.

Otherwise, given how unlucky she was, she would have become autistic and developed mental demons long ago.

Hearing everyone say this, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, you guys are smart, I'll listen to you."
