Alex’s current mind was a little confused as if he was dreaming. That voice was of a woman and sounded slightly familiar, but he could not remember the person. Moreover, it was pitch-black before him, so he could not see anything clearly.
The point was, how did he enter it?
Where was he going?
There was no hole and the like in front of him that could allow him to enter!
It was unknown if the one in the dark had read Alex’s mind, so a hole appeared before Alex the next moment. Unfortunately, it was minuscule, such that it could not be fit in with a pinkie. However, the tiny hole contained faint light that guided Alex, slowly approaching as if it were a beacon in the dark sea.
What was there inside the hole?
Could it be that a female bodhisattva was living inside?
Alex approached it slowly. He noticed that the hole seemed far away, so he could not help hasten his pace and kept moving forward. Then, the hole gradually grew bigger.
It was as big as a bottle cap.
Afterward, it seemed to be as big as a bowl… Finally, it appeared to be as big as a water tank.
Until he arrived at the hole’s entrance, he noticed he appeared to be tiny, as if a small ant crawling into a round archway. However, he still could not see clearly what was inside the door.
A force field sealed the hole like a layer of film and like a layer of water ripple with only the emanation of faint, subtle and hazy white light.
“Come on in!”
The woman’s voice reappeared, a little clearer than before.
At this moment, Alex’s consciousness began to be clear. At first, he suspected it was a dream, but now he understood that it was not. Instead, it was incredibly real as it was painful when he pinched his thigh.
‘Where is this? Did a female bodhisattva forcibly drag me into a certain time-space?’
‘What would there be inside? What is the female bodhisattva trying to do to me?’
Alex hesitated and turned around to look, but it was pitch-black that he could not see anything.
“What are you hesitating about? What are you afraid of?” The woman’s voice reappeared.
Alex heard it this time. It was not the female bodhisattva but the female previous incarna tion’s voice. His previous incarnation was calling him.
He saw an antique wooden table. There were two cups of clear tea on it, with the heat wafting and curling up. However, there was no one.
Where was the person?
“Hello?”
“That whoever… Female bodhisattva. My previous female incarnation, where are you?”
“I’ve come in. Aren’t you going to come out to meet me?”
Alex looked around, but he could not even see any figure.
It took a long while before he could hear a gentle voice wafted next to him. “Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about me?”
Alex jumped in shock and retreated on a conditioned reflex.
The voice source was on his left side with a distance of not more than a meter. However, he could not see anyone.
