After making sure that there were no mutated creatures in the hospital, Xiang Kun quietly left the hospital, brought back the hidden electric car, put away the empty food box, and prepared to go home.

However, before riding the electric car, he sensed the pair of chopsticks given to Lao Xia, but he didn't expect to directly perceive the dream.

Lao Xia just finished supper, and went back to the duty room to sleep when the door was closed?

I don't know if I still have hiccups after falling asleep......

Although with Xiang Kun's current brain processing ability, even if he perceives Lao Xia's dreams while riding an electric car, there is no problem at all, but he has a lot of expectations for Lao Xia's dreams tonight, so he still has to concentrate on perceiving.

So Xiang Kun pushed the electric car to the side of the road, leaned on the electric car, looked down at his mobile phone, and made the appearance of waiting for someone to swipe his mobile phone.

......

Sensing Lao Xia's dream again, he didn't see the closed room that Xiang Kun was looking forward to, but walked in the aisle of a restaurant.

Through Lao Xia's perspective in the dream, Xiang Kun found that she was very short, and the arms held by the adults next to her were also very small, obviously when she was young, and she didn't seem to have gone to elementary school yet.

Holding her hand was a young lady who was dressed a little extravagantly and bookishly, and on the other side of her, there was a young man wearing glasses who also looked like he was doing knowledge and technology, Xiang Kun guessed that these two might be Lao Xia's parents.

It seems that this is Lao Xia's parents taking her to dinner when she was a child?

Ahead, the waiter in the restaurant uniform who took the two of them to the position was also unexpectedly short, and even from the line of sight, he was even shorter than the current Xiao Lao Xia.

Although he could only see the back, from this back, as well as the induction of emotions injected into the projection, Xiang Kun also knew that the little girl who was the waiter in the COS restaurant in front of him was Liu Shiling-or, rather, the projection of the pair of emotions injected into the chopsticks in the dream.

After sitting down at the table, the food was quickly served, apparently because in a dream, it was incredibly fast. And "waiter Liu Shiling" is like teleporting, after serving two plates of dishes, two more plates are served in the next second.

But most of the dishes on the table looked a little blurry, and they couldn't see it clearly, so they could only vaguely judge what type of dishes it was, only one of them was the closest to Lao Xia, and Xiang Kun could see it clearly, it was a plate of crispy pork knuckle.

"Come, Xiaoice, try this 'golden pork knuckle', which is the signature of this shop, it's delicious......" The lady with a bit of bookish atmosphere sandwiched a piece of crispy pork knuckle and put it in the bowl in front of Lao Xia, but before she finished speaking, Lao Xia didn't use utensils, and directly grabbed the pork knuckle with her hand and ate it.

In the dream, Lao Xia's emotions are very strong, and there is a clear sense of hunger and possessiveness for food.

"Slow down, Xiaoice, take a sip of soup......"

"Taste something else. ”

"Eat slowly, there's more. ”

The two of them, who were suspected of being Lao Xia's parents, were all persuading, but after Lao Xia finished chewing the crispy pork knuckle in his hand, he got up and directly reached out to take a piece by himself, and continued to eat it.

As you can imagine, the food is not very elegant, and even a little crazy, just like the last time I ate the toast in that small closed room in my dream.

The voices of the two adults next to him gradually became a little blurred, and Lao Xia's attention in the dream was on food.

Just when Xiang Kun was wondering why Lao Xia had such strong feelings about food, all emotions disappeared like a low tide, replaced by calmness and reason.

The next moment, Xiang Kun found that Lao Xia's gaze began to rise, she stood up, and it became taller and higher, obviously beyond the height she had just stood up with the appearance of a child, and she did not stand on the chair.

Next, where the line of sight swept, all kinds of originally vague details began to become clear, and the two young men and women sitting on the left and right became much older, like fifty or sixty years old, but their clothes became more modern and fashionable, and their eyes looking at Lao Xia were still very gentle.

Xiang Kun knew that Lao Xia had "woken up" in his dream as expected.

And as soon as she was "sober", she immediately became an adult, and the two people who were suspected of being her parents also became old, which should also correspond to her real-time memory in reality.

Of course, the "waiter Liu Shiling" not far from the table also became the same as she had in her impression of the last dream.

Xiang Kun's spirit was lifted, his attention was highly concentrated, he wanted to see what kind of plans Lao Xia would have in his lucid dream this time after the last experience.

Hopefully, after she "wakes up" this time, the dream will last a little longer.

Lao Xia looked down at the half piece of crispy pork knuckle in his bowl, and the next moment, the half-eaten piece of crispy pork knuckle suddenly recovered.

Or rather, it was no longer the piece she had taken off the table before, because there was a noticeable difference in shape and size.

Lao Xia sat down, still without utensils, reached out and picked up the crispy pork knuckle, opened his mouth wide, even the belt meat, and slowly took a bite.

After the meat enters the mouth, there is no feeling at first, neither the texture nor the taste, as if you have taken a bite of air. But soon, mouthfeel and taste quickly emerged.

And this texture and taste are completely different from when Xiao Lao Xia gnawed crispy pork knuckle in the previous dream, and the details should be richer and more specific.

This taste...... This taste...... and this appearance, Xiang Kun soon realized that the "real crispy pork knuckle" that Lao Xia appeared in his dream after he "woke up" was made by him.

It seems that Lao Xia likes the dish "crispy pork knuckle" so much, which should be related to the fact that she ate it in a special state when she was a child. But now for her, it is obvious that the specific taste and related memories of this dish come from the "crispy pork knuckle" made by Xiang Kun.

And when I started to chew the pork knuckle, my original calm and rational state changed again, and there was a little more satisfaction and enjoyment when eating, which was different from the feeling of "crazy grabbing" in the previous dream.

Lao Xia quickly disposed of the "crispy pork knuckle", and then picked up the tissue next to him and wiped his mouth with satisfaction.

The next moment, she flipped her left hand, and three coins lay on the palm of her hand.

As soon as he saw the three coins, Xiang Kun immediately felt that he had a vague connection with them. He immediately discovered that the three coins in the dream were not simply imagined and appeared by Lao Xia according to her memory, and seemed to have a real connection with the three coins he gave to Lao Xia that established a "supersensory connection".

In the dream, Lao Xia held three coins in his hand, kept rubbing them, making them collide with each other, and then walked around the restaurant.

She observed the environment in the restaurant, and as she had seen last time, the details began to be filled in according to her memory.

Xiang Kun was a little worried that it would be like last time, the dream would soon disintegrate, and Lao Xia would wake up.

But what she didn't expect was that after Lao Xia walked around the restaurant, she returned to the table and sat down, this dream still existed, although she remained "awake", she still did not wake up.

Next, all the Chinese dishes on the table disappeared, and then a Napoleon cake appeared.

This Napoleon cake is not big, it only looks like one serving.

Lao Xia stared at the cake for a while, and then the cake slowly grew larger as if it had been blown out, and soon it was the size of a computer main chassis.

The next moment, the cake changed back to its original size.

Then the cake began to deform into a rabbit, and then continued to transform into a goose.

Looking at the big and small and changing cake, Xiang Kunxin felt that the three coins in Lao Xia's hand were gone, and the cake, which replaced the three coins, established some kind of connection with him.

Xiang Kun realized that Lao Xia didn't know how to use it, and he embodied the projection of three coins in the dream, and this projection was likely to be related to their "supersensory connection" in reality, and thus connected to Xiang Kun.

The cake is the three coins.

Lao Xia is like Liu Shiling and Little Apple, applying to "invoke" his ability through Xiang Kun's "supersensory connection" item - and it is also in the dream realm guided by the "emotional injection" item!

The change is not only the cake, Xiang Kun soon discovered that his perception angle is no longer limited to Lao Xia's subjective perspective, he can now switch to the perspective of the projection of the emotional injection in the dream "Waiter Liu Shiling".

He immediately thought of the dream that he sensed on the way back to the thorn tree, and sensed the little chubby girl Liu Shiling, although he perceived it through "emotional injection items", it was a dream that intervened halfway, in that dream, his perspective was the "chopsticks" in Liu Shiling's hand that were used as a magic wand.

This means that Liu Shiling's dream at that time, and Lao Xia's dream now, are no longer just "emotional injection items" into Kun, so there is no longer any need to maintain the fit between him and the dream owner's perception.

As for what is the basis for maintaining the dream realm now? Xiang Kun also has a guess, and there is a high probability that it is the ability of those three coins, or those three coins, to be "called" from him through the "supersensory connection".

Next, Xiang Kun saw that Lao Xia was constantly changing the shape and size of the "Napoleon cake" in her dream, and later she even made it into a large piece of crispy pork knuckle, and then let the pork knuckle continue to change shape...... But that's a bit of a creepy.

Can you imagine a laptop made of crispy pork rind and pork other than the screen, which looks like it can be used or eaten directly, and it still smells?

Is this cyberpunk or Cthulhu?

When Xiang Kun was a little crying and laughing at Lao Xia's dream imagination, Lao Xia's "lucid dream", which was obviously much longer than the last time, also came to an end.

......

In the duty room, Xia Libing sat up from the hard bed board suddenly.

She immediately looked at her left hand, and released her fist, which she had clenched even in her dreams, and in her hand lay three one-dollar coins stacked on top of each other.

She thought back to her dream, then clasped her left hand again and closed her eyes.

As the minutes ticked by, the duty room was very quiet, and only the second hand of the clock on the wall could be heard clattering.

When she opened her eyes again and looked at her right hand, which was not holding a coin, her right hand, which was originally empty, was holding a small piece of Napoleon cake!

But she only blinked once, and the cake "disappeared" and disappeared without a trace, as if it had not appeared just now, but she was dazzled.

But she knew she wasn't dazzled.

She raised her right hand and sniffed it on the tip of her nose, but there was no aroma left by Napoleon cake, and when she licked it, there was no smell of cake.

Xia Libing rubbed the three coins with her left hand, sat on the bed and kept thinking, and after a while, she looked back at the small wooden box containing chopsticks at the head of the bed, seemed to have an understanding, and then put on her shoes and got out of bed.

Xia Libing walked to the table with a coin in one hand and a mobile phone in the other, staring closely at a medical reference on the table, and after more than ten seconds, a small piece of Napoleon cake suddenly appeared on the reference material out of thin air.

Xia Libing's expression did not change, and he quickly picked up the mobile phone with his right hand, turned on the camera, and pressed the video recording button.

But before she could press it, the cake was gone, as if it had appeared out of thin air, without a trace, as if it had been "clipped" off.

Xia Libing turned on the video recording function of his mobile phone again, adjusted the angle, set it up in the corner of his desk with a few books, and then looked at its recording range, trying to "make" the Napoleon cake again.

But she tried for a few minutes, and after fine beads of sweat on her forehead on a winter night of only 4 or 5 degrees Celsius, she still couldn't make the cake come back again.

Xia Libing was not discouraged, she picked up her mobile phone and turned off the camera function.

He then continued to stare at one place on the table, and a few seconds later, the Napoleon cake reappeared.

Xia Libing nodded thoughtfully, she reached out and picked up the cake on the table, the cake had a substantial touch, but compared to the real Napoleon cake, it still seemed to be a little "floating" in the hand, and the weight didn't seem to be accurate.

She carefully brought the cake to her mouth, smelled the sweet cream, and then slowly opened her mouth and took a bite......

But the moment she bit it, the cake was gone.

Xia Libing seemed to have expected this scene, and was not surprised, she continued to rub the coin in her left hand and looked at the clock on the wall.

Well, it's almost time for a routine ward round in the evening.

She took her mobile phone, put on her coat, put on her white coat, and walked out of the duty room and went downstairs.

Seeing Xia Libing appear at the door of the duty room, the two female nurses downstairs were a little strange, their rounds at a fixed o'clock in the middle of the night were carried out by the nurses, and if there was any situation, the doctor on duty would be notified.

"I can't sleep, come and do my rounds with you. Xia Libing explained simply.

So the three of them checked the wards in their ward, determined the patients' rest, and then returned to the duty room.

"Are you hungry? My friend sent some supper before, and some more, would you like to eat some?" Xia Libing said suddenly before leaving.

The two female nurses were a little surprised, even a little flattered. You must know that when Xia Libing first arrived at their hospital, she was extremely popular, not only tall and beautiful, but also said to be related to the leaders of the hospital, whether it was the same sex or the opposite sex, they all wanted to have a good relationship with her and invite her to dinner, but basically they were polite but simple and resolute refusals, Dr. Xia was always indifferent, rejecting people thousands of miles away, and gradually everyone even had a sense of awe for her.

Took the initiative to invite someone to eat, this is the first time that Xia Libing has been in the Third Courtyard for a few months!

So the two of them half-pushed and half-pushed Xia Libing upstairs, went to the duty room where she was, and then used the microwave over there to heat up the supper that Xiang Kun had brought before.

When one of the nurses was about to put the hot dish on the table in the duty room, she suddenly found that a cake that looked quite high-end appeared on the table, and it was not packaged or placed on a plate, but was placed directly on the table.

"Well, I don't think there's a cake yet?" said the nurse in surprise.

At this time, another nurse who also brought a hot dish and turned around and said subconsciously, "What cake?"

"Isn't it right ...... table" The nurse at the beginning looked at the empty left side, stunned for a second, then reached out and touched the spot where she had just seen the cake, and wondered: "Strange...... It's obviously there, why is it gone in a blink of an eye......"

Behind her, Xia Libing, who came over with disposable dishes and chopsticks, had the same expression: "Do you want to eat cake?"

"Oh, no, no, I was just dazzled. The nurse who saw the "cake" shook her head with a smile, she felt that she should be dazzled, just like the ball sound she heard earlier, it is estimated that she is too tired from the night shift during this time?

Although the dishes made by Xiang Kun are all adjusted to the taste of Xia Libing, the basis of the dish itself is "delicious", even if it is reheated, the taste is still good.

The two nurses couldn't help but praise it, thinking that it should have been bought by Dr. Xia's friend from the restaurant.

When the meal was almost over, a nurse wanted to take the mobile phone on the table to check the time, and still held disposable chopsticks in her right hand, so she raised her left hand, which was originally on her thigh.

But as soon as her hand was raised, she was shocked to find that she was "holding" a piece of crispy and golden pork knuckle meat with a piece of skin fried!

She was startled and subconsciously shook her left hand, but nothing fell from it.

Her strange movements also attracted the attention of another nurse and Xia Libing: "What's wrong?"

She took a closer look at her left hand by the light of the room, and it was clean, not a little strange, and looked down at the ground, and there was no foreign object either.

"It's nothing, I just seemed to ...... ...... you seem to see a piece of meat in your hand?" she said, a little uncertain, "as if I was dazzled." ”

"What kind of meat?" Xia Libing asked calmly.

"Uh, nothing, I guess I read it wrong. She shook her head.

Another nurse was amazed, "No, you're hallucinating too? I just saw a piece of cake, and it's gone in the blink of an eye!"

"I seem to be seeing ...... Pork knuckles?uh, it looks like fried or grilled. ”

"It's a bit weird in our building at night, Dr. Xia, did you hear the sound of beads rolling before?"

Xia Libing said: "The sound of the beads rolling should be the thermal expansion and contraction of reinforced concrete." As she spoke, she asked the nurse who had seen the pig's foot, "You said you were holding it, did you feel it in that hand?"

"On your hands, it seems to be ...... No. No, it seems that there is, like cotton...... Well, maybe not, I'm not so sure. The nurse frowned and recalled.

"In my duty room, there is something wrong with the lighting, have you noticed, because of the location of the cabinet, so most of the room is covered by the shadow of the cabinet, causing a visual interference. Xia Libing said to the nurse who saw the cake: "Sister Lu, when the dish was hot just now, you should have been staring at the position of the microwave oven, right?" Then she suddenly turned her gaze and landed on the table, with the previous afterimage in her eyes, which was affected by the ambient light and shadow, which would make you think that you had seen something, such as a cake. ”

She said to the nurse who saw the "pig's feet": "Sister Chen, half of the place you are sitting in is exactly in the shadow of the cabinet. You lift your hand quickly, and you don't, when you lift your hand above your waist, it goes into the shadows, and if you lift it quickly, you feel like you're holding something in your hand because of the chiaroscuro effect. And because I just told you that my friend makes crispy pork knuckle, so you were affected and imagined what 'crispy pork knuckle' looks like. Do you think what you saw, is it 'crispy pork knuckle'?"

Xia Libing's voice was gentle and slow, and it sounded extremely convincing, making people feel convincing.

Nurse Chen nodded subconsciously: "Indeed, I seem to have seen a piece of pig's feet with crispy skin." ”

The two nurses who got the explanation were slightly relieved, and after eating, they helped Xia Libing clean up briefly, and then went downstairs to their duty room.

But in the corridor downstairs, Nurse Lu couldn't help but say to her companions: "I always feel ...... It's a little weird tonight. ”

Nurse Chen also felt a chill inexplicably, looked back at the closed wards, lifted her collar, and whispered, "Don't scare yourself, this is the New Year." ”

Upstairs, in the duty room with the door closed.

Xia Libing sat at the table, his elbows on the table, holding three coins in his left hand, holding his left fist in his right hand, supporting his chin with both hands together, looking at a piece of Napoleon cake on the table, thinking about the information he had gotten.

In front of her eyes, the cake disappeared after a few seconds, turning into a crispy pork knuckle, and a second later disappearing again into a cake.

After going back and forth like this a few times, Xia Libing's body suddenly moved forward, his face lay on the table, and he fainted.
