Chapter 10: Dreams and Reality
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
It's been more than a month since the last curse incident.
Even when there were large-scale deaths and injuries such as ghosts attacking pedestrians on the streets, they did not cause a large-scale panic, but were instead blamed as a nonsensical cause of "gas leaks...... There's no way around it, after all, ordinary people can't see ghosts.
The house of grudges was burned down, which made those real estate developers even more happy. Only three days after the fire, there was a construction team on that land, and as for the horror legends of the past, they had long been forgotten by the merchants who did not care about it for profit.
And whether it was the man who eliminated the source of the curse, or the onmyoji who sang and flew away, or the old monk, none of them had ever appeared in my life, as if what happened a month ago was a dream.
Sometimes I wonder if it was really a dream.
But when it comes to dreams, I've dreamed more than usual in the past month.
In my dreams, I went to more places than I had ever been.
For example, in the bamboo forest at night, I saw a confrontation between a white girl with flames and a black girl as noble as a princess.
β¦β¦ I even picked the most precious natural bamboo shoots from there and brought them back to life.

"That's right...... ? β
I excitedly told SΓΉ Lianzi about bringing back the bamboo shoots from my dream, but I only got this sentence from her.
"What...... Shouldn't you be a little more surprised by the lotus seeds? When the bamboo shoots appeared in the room, even I was taken aback. β
"Well...... I'm sorry, but Melly, if it's a bamboo shoot in a dream, how can it be brought back to reality?"
"Ah, I haven't thought about this, what do you think of lotus seeds?"
Because I was patronizing the next day, I excitedly took the bamboo shoots to show the lotus seeds, and I didn't think too deeply. Therefore, Renzi, who majored in unified physics, should have a more professional opinion.
"Could it be that you have traveled through time and space in a dream? Is Hawking's theory of time hand reversal true......? Then maybe the world in the dream is the memory of the soul that is made up of matter. β
ββ¦β¦ Wait, say something I can understand. β
Lianzi is a stupid guy like this, he always pops up some technical terms, and he doesn't care if others can understand it.
Listening to my words, Renzi sighed and said, "Really, Merry, you stupid, don't you understand?"
β¦β¦ I just don't want you to say that.
Maybe it was seeing the expression on my face, or maybe it was satisfying her little vanity, Lianzi continued: "Have you heard of the story of Zhuang Zhou Mengdie in ancient China?"
"In the past, Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies, lifelike butterflies. I don't know what to do. Oh Ran Jue, then Yu Ran Zhou also. I don't know that the dream of Zhou is a butterfly and the dream of a butterfly is a week and a butterfly, and there must be a difference between Zhou and a butterfly. This is called materialization. β
I confidently memorized this ancient Chinese text, after all, my major is relative spirituality, and I still know a lot about these things.
"Bingo, the meaning of this text is that if the dream is real enough, then do people have any ability to know that they are dreaming, and they can't tell the difference between dreams and reality, right?" Hasuko snapped her fingers.
ββ¦β¦ Although this passage is not intended to be what you say, it is about the same. β
"Well, the entrance to another world has indeed been revealed by me. Lianzi smiled confidently: "Look, because there are so many clues." β
The topic jumps too fast, right?
"Wait, wait, wait! You say the entrance to another world and the clues...... Aren't these things in my dreams?"
I couldn't keep up with Lianzi's leaping thoughts, so I quickly interrupted her by shouting.
"What's so strange about that?"
"It's weird in every way!"
"So, we're going to explore the world of your dreams, Melly. Listen to me, why don't the children of this country look happy...... Melly, do you know?"
ββ¦β¦ Because of what?"
"It's because scholars like you think that dreams and reality are the same thing, and that doctrine of yours is wrong. β
Lianzi's words made my head dizzy, and she so lightly denied the doctrine I adhered to?
But Lianzi did not stop, but continued: "It is because dreams are simply an illusion seen by the brain, and they are inserted into a physiological phenomenon in reality. Outside of subjectivity, there is an objective existence that can be believed, and there is an absolute true existence. β
"Subjective is true? What you say is fundamentally contradictory, don't you dream because you don't agree with subjectivity? And the evidence is the bamboo shoots you brought back. β
I wanted to refute it, but I couldn't do it, because the bamboo shoot was lying quietly on the table.
Seeing that I was silent, Lianzi's tone became more cheerful, which was a sign that she was interested in something.
"Dreams and reality are different. That's why we can work hard to turn dreams into reality, and that's why children laugh!"
"Come, open your eyes, dreams can become reality. Let's turn dreams into reality together!"
βββββββββ Dividing Lineββββββββ
Although Renzi's goal is great, this fool who only has the power to act doesn't know where to start turning dreams into reality......
So when she offered to investigate, I thought of the Onmyoji and the old monk that night.
Since that day, I've been dreaming more often...... Does it have something to do with that experience?]
When I had this thought, I naturally remembered a place name that Onmyoji had said that day, Moriya Shrine.
The shrine is located on a hill just outside the city and has a long history. And because there is a hot spring in the back mountain, there are many rumors in the school, such as being good for the skin......
And somehow, Moriya Shrine suddenly expanded from a month ago, turning many shrines into its branches. From the point of view of time, it is exactly right.
So, we decided to go to Moriya Shrine on this day to investigate.
And when I was at the foot of the mountain, I could feel something like an enchantment on the mountain, but ......
Who would have thought that this staircase would be so long!
When I finally climbed to the top of the mountain and saw the quaint shrine, I was so tired that I didn't have any strength at all.
"Really, Melly, you need to exercise, and your body is also necessary for activity. β
"You think everyone is a person like you......"
For my exhausted complaints, Lianzi didn't take it to heart, but looked in the direction of the shrine and said, "Huh, it looks like someone has come out." β
Following the line of sight of lotus seeds, I saw two people.
One of them was dressed in a shrine maiden costume, while the other was ......
"Ahh
