Chapter 67: It's Them Again
It was a small town that experienced the rainy season, and the intermittent bluestone pavement was washed clean by the pouring rain, and even so smooth that it reflected the light of the street lamps. The rain fell from the sky, and the splashes formed a mist, and through the damp and stuffy air, a layer of haze evaporated between the sky and the earth.
Ye Jing walked step by step against the wind and rain, her wet hair clinging to her cheeks, although she was holding an umbrella, it was obviously useless in such a majestic rain. Ye Jing lifted the bangs that were blocking in front of her, squinted and looked ahead, there seemed to be a figure floating in front of her in the smoke and rain.
It was a vivid red, and behind the crystal rain, it looked particularly fresh and eye-catching.
Standing in the rain, wearing a red dress but not touching half of the splash, in the wind, her black hair does not raise a trace of swaying. At first glance, it looked like a doll with big eyes and a small mouth, appearing in front of Ye Jing. The little girl on the flyer, the weird girl who will break into other people's dreams.
Ye Jing couldn't help but take a deep breath, and the coolness of the raindrops took the opportunity to rush down her nose, and even choked her a few times. When she looked up again, the girl had already walked up to her unconsciously.
"Ye Jing, I can find you~~"
"I, have we met?" With a little surprise, Ye Jing was already mentally prepared to greet the 'ticket man'. Because now she is the same as before, she can't hear her own voice.
"No, we haven't seen ...... before" Even if they were face-to-face like this, the little girl's voice seemed to be across the wilderness, leisurely reaching Ye Jing's ears, "But have you seen Xiao Zhi and Yang Yue, or ...... Mr. Snow?"
Ye Jing was stunned, she had to come, so she sighed helplessly: "I hope you just came to see my ...... for them"
The little girl, who was no taller than Ye Jing's waist, stood up and pulled her hand, which was regarded as a handshake gift for the first meeting.
"My name is Yang Xuyu, you can call me Xiaoyu. ”
Ye Jing glanced at her wet clothes that stuck to her skin, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat: "It's really a little rain...... I said, since you have the ability to find me, why don't you choose a sunny place?"
Xiaoyu laughed and said: "I don't have that ability, this is your dream, that is to say, you made it rain here......"
Ye Jing sighed: "It seems that I like to get drenched in the rain......"
"Maybe it's not the rain ......" Although the voice is immature, Xiaoyu's tone shows a tone that is completely different from the age of the voice, "Maybe it's because you want to wash everything away like a heavy rain and start over, right?"
Ye Jingwu was expressionless, and the whole person stood there empty, as if he had no soul.
"I've heard Ash talk about you, maybe it's a bit of an exaggeration, but they can really find the courage to live from you......" Xiaoyu looked up at Ye Jing, and then said, "Although I don't know what you've been through, or what you're going through, you have to believe that everyone has an easy life, with such and such regrets, and such and such pains." Sometimes you wish you could leave everything behind, sometimes you wish you could do it all over again, but I think you understand that life only makes sense if you move forward, don't you?"
"Alas......" Ye Jing's sigh looked very weak.
In an instant, the rain stopped, the sun shone through the thick clouds, and the stagnant water on the ground was like dew at dawn, and the moment it met the sun, it disappeared without a trace.
"Oh ......" Xiaoyu nodded approvingly as she witnessed the change in her dream, "I think I kind of understand why they like you so much......"
Ye Jing rubbed her face and teased, "Then as a result, did you come all the way to deliver me Chicken Soup for the Soul?"
"That's not ......" Xiaoyu paused and said with a smile, "It's not all ......"
"How?"
"Actually, I'm here to help you......," the little girl pointed around, "this dream, in other words, is a world that only exists in your mind, and since you are a lighthouse, there are many contradictory and uncorrected memories in this world at the same time. ”
"Now, I want you to imagine that you are standing in front of a mirror...... "the little girl clapped her hands, "uh, try it, it's easy...... I've tweaked the device to keep you as subjective as possible in your dreams, at the cost of being groggy tomorrow morning from lack of sleep, of course. ”
Ye Jing looked at her speechlessly.
Xiaoyu shrugged: "If you want to sleep well, you'd better cooperate with me quickly and let me finish talking......"
"Count you as powerful...... Ye Jing shook her head helplessly, this guy is really in the same group as Xiao Zhi, and they all talk to themselves as if they are carved out of a mold.
"Oh ......" Although she was prepared, Ye Jing was still startled by the mirror that appeared in front of her out of thin air, "It's really interesting, I feel like a magician, what do you want......"
"Okay, get down to business...... Xiaoyu urged, "Then get another mirror out behind you, and you stand in the middle of the mirror......"
After doing this, Ye Jing looked at the mirror, and the two mirrors standing opposite each other reflected their own reflections to each other, forming a bottomless pit with countless of themselves.
And then ...... What do you want to say?" asked Ye Jing.
"Just to use an analogy, there are two mirrors in front of you, one for the future and the other for the past. Standing in the middle, you will have countless possibilities like an image......"
Ye Jing waved her hand at the mirror playfully, and the countless self in the mirror also waved her hand, the countless self that existed in the past and the future.
"Na...... As you can see......" Xiaoyu further explained, "Although these images are relatively independent, they all ultimately depend on you standing here now, imagine that any of your actions now also affect the future and even the past......"
"That'...... What does this have to do with you appearing in my dreams?"
Xiaoyu sniffed: "I mean, as a lighthouse, you have these two mirrors in your brain at the same time, they affect each other, and they conjure up countless faults in your brain, and many times, it may make you feel that you are no longer yourself, or that you are not just yourself......"
Ye Jing suddenly thought of the dream that she had always been a boy in the eyes of others.
"That'...... What will be the consequences of that?" Ye Jing swallowed with some concern.
"It's not a big deal, under normal circumstances, you will develop schizophrenia...... Belch...... Listen...... Listen to what I'm going to say......" Seeing Ye Jing clenching her fists, Xiaoyu hurriedly explained, "I'm here to help you with Mr. Xue, because many lighthouses have this similar phenomenon, so I want to help you tide over the difficulties through some of our research." ”
"Tide over the difficulties?" Ye Jing recited silently in her heart, always feeling that something was wrong that she couldn't explain. But more important than that is, "So what should I do?"
"I can only say this now......" Xiaoyu beckoned, motioning for Ye Jing to squat down, and then she could pat Ye Jing's shoulder and said earnestly, "No matter where you are, please be yourself, firmly believe in your beliefs, and do what you should do......"
"That's all?uh...... Hey?" Ye Jing only felt a bright light in front of her, which pierced her eyes, "Then how can I find you?"
"Don't try to find me, I'm just a reflection in your head......" The little girl's voice echoed in the light, "just as I won't get wet in the rain, I don't exist in the real ......"
"Whew......" Ye Jing sat up from the bed with a spirit, and as Xiaoyu said, she felt tired as if she had stayed up late.
"Ah~~ Is our little master Jing awake?" The little durian in the bedroom had already entered the agent mode, and casually threw a folder to Ye Jing, "Na~~ Senior Li Ming ordered, the venue of this event is the library~~"
"Ahhh......h Because everyone knows that there is no noise in the library, and if there is no noise, how can you work as an idol
