A cloud of black silk wrapped around my hands and feet, and I couldn't tell if it was hair or aquatic plants. Just as I was about to lose consciousness, a force pulled me up from top to bottom, and I couldn't tell the direction anymore, and my limbs swayed wildly with the current.

The feeling of air entering the lungs again is not as good as it could be. A strong tingling sensation spread through my chest, and my mouth was filled with the smell of blood. The water of the lake and stomach acid gushed out of my mouth, and I vomited out a clump of mud and sand in the midst of my choking.

"Wake up, wake up!" I heard someone shouting next to me, and I could see the pattern of the man's clothes in a daze, it was the security guard. The ringing in my ears continued, and I couldn't make out what they were saying next.

......I struggled to sit up, my clothes and pants soaking wet, and the water ran down the collar to my warm skin, making me shiver with cold.

The security guard next to him handed over a towel, looked embarrassed, and stammered a little: "He...... He's over there...... He ......"

I didn't have time to listen to him, and staggered to Li Mobai's side. There were several people around him, desperately trying to drain him and do CPR.

The muddy water of the lake gushed from his bloodless lips, and wet hair curled down his pale face. Why did Li Mobai become like this, didn't he stay behind the bushes well?

"He saw you fall into the water and jumped down to save you." The security guard on the side looked at me a little sluggish and said, "He can't swim, so he pulled you up, but he couldn't." ”

My head buzzed, and it went blank. The worst I could have imagined had just happened. A tingling pain in my chest, an unbearable feeling of suffocation hit my throat, and the air I breathed in seemed to turn into sulfuric acid, corroding my chest. My legs went limp, and I fell to the ground.

"Are you alright?" Another security guard came to help me, and I waved my hand again and again, stood up on the ground, and touched the stones on the ground.

Except for the one I kicked away, the other three stones that were pressed against the painting were still lying on the grass, and the paintings were gone. As I expected, the woman was really here for the painting. What the hell was she, why could a creature full of human breath stay in the water for so long, why did she kill those sick people, Mo Bai......

Thinking of Mo Bai, I immediately walked up to him, pulled up his dripping arm, and took a pulse, barely touching the pulse. I was unwilling and touched his carotid artery again, but there was still no pulse. Several of the security guards around him who were giving him first aid had given up and were about to go to the ward building to carry a stretcher.

It's impossible, it's impossible, and it can definitely be saved......

I took the security guard's hand and kept giving Mo Bai CPR. I had already consumed a lot of body in the water, and after a few presses, I collapsed to the ground. The sky was already a little white, and Mo Bai definitely wouldn't last the second night, and my mind was spinning rapidly, and I had to find a way to bring him back to life.

Dream making.

These two words came to my mind. Time passes slower than in reality, and it will work as long as you use the residual consciousness of Mobai!

Thinking of this, I immediately walked to Mo Bai's side. The security guards have all given up, some have stood up to call, some have left the scene, and now is a good time.

I touched my cold, pale wrist, desperately holding my breath, looking for the remaining trace of his breath. My hands trembled with nervousness, disrupting my rhythm again and again, and I was never able to lay out the foundation of my dreams. As the minutes ticked by, fine sweat began to ooze from my head.

What to do, I can't find his consciousness.

The mind kept weaving, and I thought of hundreds of ways, but I still couldn't catch his breath. My closed eyes were already feeling the heat of the rising sun, and I was so tired that I almost gave up.

At this moment, my mind suddenly felt a force, holding the wisps of thought, like a brush dipped in inspiration, writing in the blank space of the brain. I caught that this is Mo Bai's thinking, his remaining consciousness, writing another world.

The sound of the security guards calling the phone gradually disappeared, my tinnitus disappeared, my heartbeat returned to a normal level, and I finally brought Mo Bai into the dream I had weaved.

Slowly opened his eyes, there was still pre-dawn darkness all around, time seemed to stand still, and it was a little quiet. The woman in the water is so persistent in Mo Bai's paintings, she will definitely not let him go. If that woman had been conscious, she would have come to my dreams.

Mo Bai lay quietly beside me, the wet water on his body had been filtered out by my dreams, but his body was still very cold. I stood up and walked over to the lake, my fingers gently running over the undisturbed surface of the lake, and she hadn't yet appeared.

After waiting for about five minutes, nothing poked out of the lake, and I was a little anxious. It's not a way to wait like this, I thought about it, looked at the lake as quiet as a mirror, and suddenly a bold idea came to me, pinched my nose and jumped down.

The painful feeling of drowning struck again. If I drown in a dream, my consciousness will return to my body, and I will wake up, and Mo Bai will never come back; If that woman really cares about Mo Bai, then she will definitely not ignore the life I saved from Mo Bai......

I never think about the consequences when I do things, and it's this kind of behavior that borders on recklessness that sometimes has some unexpected effects. I held my breath, my eyes were a little uncomfortable with the water, and I kept sinking. Suddenly, I felt a thin, cold hand gripping my ankle tightly, and weed-like hair spread out of the lake, and the bottom of the lake instantly became black as ink. The strands of hair were tangled together, enveloping my body and pulling me towards the surface of the lake.

"Ahh This time I didn't stay underwater for long, and the moment my head poked out of the lake, I took a big breath of air and coughed up the water in my esophagus.

"Don't go!" I turned around and clung to the woman behind me who wanted to go back to the lake, "I'll jump again when you're gone!" ”

She looked back at me, her resentful eyes as if they had penetrated decades of vicissitudes. Finally, she stopped struggling and whispered, "I should have killed your ...... before."

"But you didn't expect him to jump in to save me regardless of his own safety." I looked her in the eye and said word by word. Although she was an unidentified object in the water, I didn't feel the slightest fear. Unlike before, as long as I encountered a ghost or demon in a dream, I would have pulled my legs early and ran away.

"So I'm not going to let you die. It was Mobai who gave you his life, and you must live well. She said, looking at me sharply, then looking at the inky white body on the shore, her eyes suddenly becoming gentle, "But it's okay, when the people in the hospital announce that he is dead, I will take him to me and never let him go again." ”

"You...... How do you know his name is Mobai? I asked.

"Of course I know, I also know that he likes to write and draw, and his dream is to be a calligrapher and have his own studio in the future," said this, her expression became happy, and she lowered her head a little shyly, "It was Mo Bai who gave me life." ”

What? I was suddenly confused. This woman looks almost twenty years old, how could Li Mobai have this illegitimate daughter. It was only then that I thought of it, and the arm she had just been grabbed by me suddenly began to rot, and the tendons were broken, revealing the white bones inside. She immediately put her hand in the lake, and the rotting stopped.

"You see," she said, "my body is not fully recovered. I stole the souls of dozens of people to get to where I am now. ”

She kept her upper body lying on the water, as if there was something hidden. I dared to look into the water of the lake where she was staying, and I was so frightened that I almost fell into the water again. Under the beautiful face, young and tender upper body, there are white bones that have begun to **, and the soft tissues attached to the bones are constantly fluttering with the water. I felt a little nauseous, and my eyebrows were furrowed.

"I died decades ago, my body turned into a pile of rotten bones, and my consciousness, soul, and body have long since ceased to exist. I knew that one day, I heard a voice calling to me, and that voice was, ......"

When I heard the word "Qi", I was startled, I had heard this word in Lu Yao and Zhao Yujing's dreams before, and I encountered it again this time, it seems that it is not a coincidence.

"I suddenly regained consciousness and woke up at the bottom of this deep lake, but I had no soul. Later, I noticed that every day a young boy would come to wash the pen, and the ink soaked in scriptures and verses was full of spiritual power, which made me feel like a new life, and I had my own life pursuit again, and I felt as if I had a soul again. I just want to be there for him quietly, and let his pen and ink connect me and him closely. He once drew an ink painting of me picking flowers on the grass, and I always wanted him to give it to me. ”

"But a few months ago, he never came again. Without the ink, my soul began to decay, and this lonely pain tormented me deeply, so I wanted to steal someone else's soul and let myself have a body again, I wanted to go to him, I wanted to find Mobai! ”

As she spoke, the girl sank into the water again, probably because her body couldn't stand it after being out of the water for too long. It didn't take long for her to float again, and her body was noticeably less coloured than it had been before.

"Before I could complete my body, he ...... white," the girl sobbed lowly, and the dark ink flowed from her eyes.

I finally knew why she had such a human-like aura, it turned out that it was all pieced together by the souls of the dozens of dead patients, and I suddenly felt that the girl in front of me was a little cold and terrifying.

"Alright, I'm going to take him away." The girl stopped crying and said. She slammed down on the ground, rotting white bones peeking out from her lower body, and her fleshy, half-bony body emitted a strong smell of sourness. Little by little, she squirmed on the grass and walked towards the place where Li Mobai was lying.

"No, you can't!" I shouted. At this moment, Mo Bai's body suddenly moved back ten meters. I was stunned for a moment, and then it dawned on me that in the dreams I had created, I could sometimes control it.

"So this is a dream...... It's exactly the same......" she sneered suddenly, "In that case, I don't need to pity your life, you can die for me!" ”

As she spoke, she immediately crawled towards me, and her thick hair burst out of the water like a slender snake, tightly wrapping around my feet and pulling me into the water.

"Stop this dream! I'm going to take Mobai away! She roared, a miasma of black ink emanating from her body. The land is not suitable for her to stay for a long time, and the smell of ** in the air is getting stronger and stronger, and she can't hold on for long.

I tried to change the dream again, but it didn't work. It seems that the ability to manipulate dreams has not improved.

"Have you ever thought about Mo Bai's own choice!" I shouted with great force, my hands clinging to the bushes on the ground. "He's so young! He still has his own dreams that have not been realized! ”

The dragging force of the hair on her feet was noticeably weaker, and she was stunned for a moment, staring at me with a puzzled look. Seeing that this was useful, I continued: "You said that it was his calligraphy and paintings that gave you life again!" Do you know how many soulless and unconscious bodies like you are in the world, waiting for him to be redeemed! ”

"Have you ever thought about how many souls you steal! How many people are like you, who have their own love and their own life pursuits! ”

She was already a little overwhelmed, and the hair around my feet suddenly weakened, and I returned to where it was supposed to be.

"Even if you take Mo Bai's body away, do you think he will like you with a soul as dark as ink?"

"Say no more!" She hid her face in pain and wept, and the blue grass was suddenly soaked with her black tears. "It's all my fault! I shouldn't have woken up! Her hair returned to its original form, and the dark aura emanating from her body faded.

I saw that she had given up her attack, and slowly walked over to her, the smell of decay being masked by the scent of ink. I gently lifted her half-boneless face and said slowly, "If Mobai were still alive, he would definitely be happy to have such a beautiful girl like him." ”

After hearing me, her empty eyes began to glow. Then, she smiled, and the decay of her body stopped instantly. I stared at the scene in disbelief, and I couldn't believe my eyes.

One by one, small white dots of light slowly rose from her body, and slowly, her body took on a complete human form. Firefly-like points of light drifted towards Mo Bai one after another, gradually merging into his body, and his pale face began to become ruddy.

"You're right, Mo Bai shouldn't be with someone like me, he has his own future." For the first time, the girl stood up like a human being and walked up to me. "Will you sue him, my deposit?"

"Yes." "He'll feel it himself." ”

Her body gradually became transparent due to the departure of the white light spots, but she herself didn't care about the changes in her body, she still looked at Li Mobai who was gradually waking up on the shore gently, and gave her soul in her body without regrets.

"I gave Mo Bai the soul I got, and he will definitely wake up again," the girl said, with an innocent expression on her face, "The rest of the soul, please bring the patient you saved, I'm leaving, remember to tell him, I've been here ...... before"

"Wait!" As if I had a sudden thought, I grabbed the stone from the ground and slashed the palm of my right hand. I've done this several times and I don't even feel the pain. "If you don't mind, please come in, at least maybe you'll see him again later."

The girl stretched out a transparent arm and touched the "T" mark on my palm, which glowed with a dark red light, and the painting entered my body in a cloud of ink.

……

When I woke up, Mo Bai was already looking at me. Seeing me open my eyes, he immediately shouted excitedly. The sky revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly, and the light once again illuminated the earth.

I felt something foreign in my palm, wet, and smelling a peculiar smell. As soon as it was spread out, the word "Danqing" written in ink had not yet dried, shining in the sunlight.
