Chapter 8: Dreams
Wu Xi sat on the sofa in the living room, looking at everything around him, nothing had changed here, and it was the same as three years ago. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info especially the tablecloth made of linen, although it has been washed and deformed, it is still spread on the dining table by Xu Xing.
The familiar fragrance in the kitchen came out one after another, Wu Xi's heart suddenly felt unprecedented stability, she walked into her former bedroom, and found that the sheets were newly changed, and there was an extra vase on the bedside table, and there were a few small lilac flowers in it, which were snow rock grass. Wu Xi leaned down, put her nose on it and sniffed, her eyes were moist, she had never seen her mother, but she always felt that if her mother was still alive, there must be this faint fragrance of flowers on her body.
"It's time to eat." Xu Xing's voice sounded behind him.
Wu Xi quickly wiped the corners of his eyes, turned his head and asked him, "Why is this house so clean?" ”
"I clean once a week." As soon as these words came out, there was a boundless silence between the two, and after a while, Xu Xing smiled reluctantly, "Let's eat first, it won't taste good if it's cold for a while." ”
The table was already full of various dishes, Wu Xi took a piece of pork ribs and put it in his mouth, then closed his eyes and praised deeply: "It's still a five-star level, and I can't compare to this craft if I practice it for another hundred years." She smiled at Xu Xing for the first time in a long time, and then began to feast.
"Eat slowly, don't choke." Xu Xing thoughtfully put a bottle of water in Wu Xi's hand. He looked at her gobbling up, and for a moment it seemed to be back to the first time she went home with him four years ago, when she was hit by Zhu Yu's departure, but she never lost her enthusiasm and hope for life, but now, although she was smiling at herself, he could feel the deep hopelessness behind this smile.
After a long time, Wu Xi finally cleaned the table full of dishes, she took a sip of water and patted her stomach gently, "I haven't eaten so much for a long time, thank you for your hospitality." ”
Xu Xing got up from his seat, he came to the window and looked at the thick night outside, and finally said the words that had been held in his heart for a long time, "Wu Xi, do you really want to help him resurrect Yi?" Do you know what the consequences of this are? ”
Wu Xi looked at the table full of leftovers, "Xu Xing, I don't want to talk about this today, I haven't eaten a meal so easily for a long time, you just let me go, okay?" ”
Her words made Xu Xing's heart soften, and he couldn't refuse her request at all, so he pursed his lips and smiled at Wu Xi, "Have you eaten enough?" Help me clean up the dishes when you're full. ”
Wu Xi had dreamed, she hadn't had such a bizarre and weird dream for a long time. In her dream, she ran barefoot in the snow, and the snowflakes behind her struck her bare face and limbs like blades, marking her skin red. Suddenly, the flying snow turned into faint shadows, and they screamed desperately behind Wu Xi, and the sharp screams mixed with fear smashed on Wu Xi's eardrums, smashing her ears painfully. She couldn't help but look back and see that these figures were screaming and hurrying away from her, and in a few moments, they all disappeared without a trace.
"Who is it?" Wu Xi shouted at the snow mist behind him, "Why did you take them away? Who are you? ”
No one answered, and her voice quickly turned into a drop of muddy water like a snowflake falling on the ground. She stared desperately at the end of the blizzard, where slowly came a shadowy figure, familiar to her, but she couldn't tell who he really was.
"Who are you?" Wu Xi roared again, but before her words fell, she was suddenly knocked to the ground by a thick red and black tail, and the blood spilling from her mouth and nose stained the snow red.
"I ...... Are you going to die? She looked at the blood gathering around her and muttered the words.
"I'm not going to let you die." A high-pitched voice floated overhead, a sound a hundred times colder than the snow beneath her, and she couldn't help but shudder.
"Live, only by living can we sweep away all those wicked people." The voice said again, and Wu Xi felt a dizziness on the top of her head, and she reluctantly forced herself to scream, and then pulled out of this weird dream.
She sat in the darkness and gasped for breath, what was the dream about, why were those resentful spirits taken away by the Monkey, and what did it mean?
Wu Xi felt that her head hurt terribly, and her brain was like a burning red lead ball, crashing into her head, almost shattering her Heavenly Spirit Gai. In a trance, she saw that the snow rock grass next to her was emitting a faint light, it was like a morning star in the dark night, allowing her to find her direction.
I don't know what the reason is, Wu Xi grabbed the vase and sniffed desperately on the clusters of small flowers, and suddenly, her headache was much soothed, and it seemed that even the chaotic head was transparent. What's even more amazing is that the fragrance of flowers not only relieved her pain, but also seemed to have the function of hypnosis, Wu Xi felt that the whole body became soft and very comfortable, she didn't even have time to think about the terrible dream just now, so she tilted her head and fell asleep.
At the dinner table the next morning, Wu Xi truthfully took out last night's dream to Xu Xing, "I haven't been entangled by those resentful spirits in my dreams for a long time, and they are all more taboo about white flames, so they don't dare to be presumptuous in my dreams, but this time, I not only dreamed of these souls, but even saw myself killed, I always felt that this was not a simple dream, but more like a hint." ”
"Implication of what? Hinting that you will be killed by the Monkey? Xu Xing handed a glass of juice to Wu Xi, "Don't think nonsense, you will be fine, this life was exchanged for your mother's life, and she will bless you with blessings for ten thousand years." ”
"By the way, there is also Snow Rock Grass," Wu Xi suddenly remembered, "After that nightmare last night, my head hurt terribly, it was those clusters of small flowers that cured my pain and then helped me fall asleep again, Xu Xing, does Snow Rock Grass have medicinal effects?" ”
Xu Xing glanced at Wu Xi, and there was something in her eyes that she couldn't understand. "It has no medicinal effect, but after your mother died, the snow rock grass on the cliff grew extraordinarily luxuriantly, as if it had been given vitality by something, so I responded to Tianshan last time and picked a lot of it."
