Chapter 279: Diving into the Dream Realm
The ghost was not at all happy when he saw the figure he was looking for in front of him, but he didn't complete the task at all.
How terrible is this youkai, even the youkai who claims to be not a human doesn't dare to mess with him, and he has to secretly find out his whereabouts himself. Now that I actually bumped into it face to face, the consequences are probably unimaginable, I am already dead anyway, and there is nothing to lose, but my son ......
Seeing the other party staring at him, Jin Hotaru thought that this ghost was angry because he was following him from behind, but his behavior was indeed stalking people, and he stood there not knowing how to explain it.
So, a ghost and a vine moss stared at each other in the corridor of the hospital, and from time to time passing medical staff or sick patients and family members passed through their bodies and continued to walk, but the two non-humans did not know what to do next.
What is this monster going to do next? Will it make me like this? All kinds of horrible images are automatically generated in this ghost's mind, maybe revenge is not enough for himself, but also for my family......
The more the ghost thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more frightened he became, the more he could not restrain himself from thinking about the more terrible things, and at last he could not hold it anymore, and ran away with a scream. Jin Ying watched him rush into Jiang Chang's hospital room in a panic, and after thinking about it, he followed.
The ghost fled into the ward, forgetting that his "identity" could escape through the window, and he anxiously walked around the room, fearing that the monster would catch up and catch the turtle in an urn.
In desperation, he saw a young man sleeping on the bed, and he immediately threw himself under the bed, trying to hide for a while, but his body suddenly pounced on the young man's body as if something was pulling him, and then disappeared.
"He's hurting humans like this, isn't he? No, I'm going to get him out!" Jin Ying, who caught up, found that the ghost was actually on Jiang Chang's body, Jiang Chang frowned slightly in his sleep, Jin Ying's figure flickered, and then he also entered Jiang Chang's dream.
Jiang Chang knew very well that he was dreaming, because since he was sick and hospitalized, only in his dreams did he not feel the kind of tiredness that permeated his whole body, and only in his dreams could he do what he liked.
Now he is painting a huge picture in a dream, in which he has become the best illustrator at home and abroad, so writers want his illustrations to add sparkle to their work. Jiang Chang was mixing his favorite color, but suddenly found that there was an extra figure beside him.
"Little brother, let me hide here, just hide for a while...... Just a moment......" the ghost shuddered and pleaded. He knew that this young man would not live long, but with the yang energy on his body, it was still very easy to throw him out of his dream.
"Who are you, a human or a ghost?"
"I ...... I am...... I'm ......," the ghost bowed its head. If he had told the truth, this young man would have driven himself out of fear, but he was an honest man in his life, and he did not learn to lie after his death, and he did not know how to say it for a while.
"You're a ghost, aren't you?" Jiang Chang asked.
The ghost nodded helplessly.
"Are you really a ghost? Great, great!" Jiang Chang stood up with a happy face, I don't know why, when he heard the existence of ghosts, not only was he not afraid, but he was also excited.
"What are you ......" The ghost was about to ask the half-grown child, who was about the same age as his son, when suddenly a voice rang out from behind him, "You shouldn't come to a human dream, especially a terminally ill human like him, your yin qi will shorten his life. ”
The ghost hurriedly turned around and saw a young man standing behind him. He looked at the young man in amazement, and then at the young man who was drawing...... Is this two people or one person? How do they look exactly the same? This made him confused, but he didn't expect that the golden firefly who could appear in the form of a human in the dream was the youkai who scared him just now.
However, Jin Ying's rebuke was understood, which meant that as a ghost, casually entering a human dream would damage the life span of a human being.
He didn't mean to hurt the young man at all, so he hurriedly explained: "There was a black shadow monster chasing me just now, and I had to hide in because I was afraid. Maybe he'll tear me to pieces, eat my family, and ......."
Jin Hotaru didn't know if he was talking about himself, but even if there were other vines here, he wouldn't be interested in breaking a ghost into pieces, or even eating his family.
"That monster is terrible, I don't know how murderous and bloodthirsty it is, and it will definitely ...... me, a poor ghost," the ghost continued to nag.
"Are you talking about the shadow you're talking about me?" interrupted Jin Hotaru and returned to his original form.
The ghost let out a terrible scream, and disappeared in front of Jin Hotaru like a wisp of green smoke, and when Jin Hotaru sensed his position again, she found that he had rushed out of the hospital, ignoring the first rays of morning light that was about to rise in the east, and ran into the distance.
"Am I really that scary?" said Jin Hotaru for the first time. In the past, the monster saw him fleeing because Yan'er was standing on top of his head, but this time......
"You are ......," the voice of the young man Jiang Chang came from behind him. Jin Hotaru patronized and talked to the ghost, but forgot that the real owner was watching him.
Jiang Chang looked at Jin Ying, who had recondensed into a human form, and reached out to his face in confusion: "Are you my shadow?" Or is there a mirror here to let me see what my future will look like?"
Jin Ying stretched out her hand to stop the other party from "touching" her face: "I'm not your shadow, there is no mirror here, I'm not you." ”
"Really?" Jiang Chang retracted his hand in disbelief, looked around and said to himself: "What kind of place is this? I'm not in a dream? Who are you......? Are I dead? You're actually my soul!"
Thinking that he might be dead, Jiang Chang's eyes flashed with sadness and helplessness, but he quickly calmed down again, as if he was not unacceptable to death.
"I'm not your soul, you're not dead, here...... It's your dream," Jin Hotaru waved at the boy and turned to leave, "I didn't mean to disturb you, I came in to drive away the ghosts that entered your dream." Please go back to sleep. ”
Jiang Chang blinked incomprehensibly, and when Jin Ying was about to get out of his mind, he excitedly stopped Jin Ying, "Please wait......! I've heard that when you are about to die, you can see your soul, you can see your hidden self in the depths of your heart. ”
"But I'm not you. Jin Ying shook his head, he couldn't understand Jiang Chang's words.
"Let's talk!" Jiang Chang smiled brightly at him, "We rarely see each other." Maybe we're destined to meet, let's talk, okay? I know I don't have long to live......"
"I can't help you, I'll die at any time......" Jin Hotaru shook his head again, and when he wanted to get out of the boy's dream, he suddenly felt a strange fluctuation, as if a monster had entered this ward, and he stopped where he was and didn't speak again.
A voice passed through Jiang Chang's dream and reached Jin Ying's ears: "Jin Ying, I know you are here." I don't hate you, so I can tolerate it whether you stay in the hospital or follow my husband to protect yourself, but you don't want to get my husband involved in these trouble......s!
Jin Ying could hear that this voice was Bai Ruoying's. It seems that the ghost just now was too close to Xue Yupeng, and it had already attracted the attention of his good wife, who was caring for his husband, so he hurried to the hospital: "Don't worry, I just want to follow him to see this hospital." ”
"I hope so. Bai Ruoying snorted lightly and left.
Female snake demons are very infatuated, and Jin Ying heard Li Yao tell a story about a white snake and a human man. If Bai Ruoying's husband knew that his wife was a snake, he didn't know how he would react. However, most of the couples of the demon group that Jin Hotaru knows are living in harmony.
Of course Jiang Chang couldn't hear the conversation between Jin Ying and Bai Ruoying, he only saw Jin Ying in a daze in front of him, so he misunderstood what he meant, he tilted his head and looked at Jin Ying with a wooden expression and couldn't help laughing.
After a long time, he spread his hands awkwardly: "Really, I don't even know what to say." ”
Jin Hotaru looked at him quietly. In the relative silence of the two people, time passed little by little.
At this time, a human pushed the door in, and after Jin Ying recognized that it was Xue Yupeng, she quickly left Jiang Chang's dream and hid in Xue Yupeng's shadow.
Jiang Chang woke up in a hurry when he saw Jin Ying leave suddenly, he slowly opened his eyes, and when he saw the person coming clearly, he smiled at Xue Yupeng: "Doctor Xue, I had a strange dream just now. ”
"You're still very weak, it's normal to dream, don't worry, get some rest. Xue Yupeng touched his head with a smile, asked about his condition, and walked out after a few words. Jiang Chang sat on the edge of the bed, holding his cheeks, and began to recall the dream just now.
Jin Ying involuntarily went to see Jiang Chang in the ward every day, and in Lidan City, except for Lu Qing, Jiang Chang became the human he saw every day.
Maybe as Jiang Chang said, they were destined to meet, Jiang Chang's illness was getting worse and worse, he could actually see Jin Ying, and every time he stopped him to talk about something, Jin Ying repeatedly denied that he was not Jiang Chang's soul, but Jiang Chang still stubbornly believed that Jin Ying was his other self.
As the days passed, Jin Hotaru no longer counted how long they had gone, but every morning, the exact number of days they had walked was still automatically generated in his mind.
"One hundred and forty-eight days......" Jin Ying muttered to herself.
Since he and Yan'er were born in this world, they have never been separated for such a long time. I don't know if it can eat enough in the other world? Can it sleep enough? Does it cause trouble? As a father's worry about his son, Jin Ying's worry about his son is no less than that of other fathers, and his son is a child who needs to worry ten thousand times more than other people's sons.
Can Ji Ao control it? Can Ji Ao bring them back safely? Can Li Yao adapt to the other world? Is Yan'er starting to feel homesick? It has no patience for anything, it must be tired of traveling in the other world......
Her thoughts circled, and Jin Hotaru's worries returned to Yan'er. Lu Qing looked at Jin Ying, who was sighing slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. The golden firefly will also sigh, this is a rare sight to see.
"Flames, they'll be back soon. Lu Lu had been here a few days ago, didn't she bring their letters? They were very close to their destination, and they should be back soon. They were also in the mood to let the messenger bring otherworldly souvenirs, indicating that their trip was going well, which reassured Lu Qing a lot.
Whether they succeed or not, they will be back soon, and I believe that Ji Ao will not let them do anything that is not in proportion.
