CHAPTER XXVI
All around was a thick darkness that could not be seen, and Gao Ye, who was submerged in it, stood motionless. The drowsy brain had improved, and he stared ahead, his brown pupils were as if they had been rendered by the darkness, and they became dark and dull, and he couldn't see a glimmer of light in them.
The familiar call that came from a distance, which gradually grew from a small point to a large number, got closer and closer, Gao Ye moved his body, touched the darkness, and walked straight forward.
This voice should be Chong Qiao's.
It's the same as waking him up in the pharmacy before, no, it should be said that he wasn't awake from the beginning, but he thought he was awake, and everything that happened after leaving the pharmacy should be fake.
And this is where he has always been.
However, how could he be in such a place, and he was still alone, and Chong Qiao came out with him?
The sound from a distance began to disappear, and Gao Ye, who had lost the direction by sound, subconsciously stopped, he glanced back behind him, but he could only see darkness.
Suddenly irritable in his heart, he had experienced some inexplicable things from the beginning, could it be that these were all the ghosts of damn zombies he had never even seen?
"!"
Alone in the dark, the only voice that could comfort him disappeared, and the overwhelming depression enveloped Gao Ye's whole person.
How to go, where to go, what to do, to get out of here.
There was no one to answer for him, and the Jade Soul lost his trace at the critical moment, and Chong Qiao, who had been staying by his side, also disappeared.
Gao Ye walked back and forth irritably, and the sullenness in his heart not only did not dissipate as he kept moving, but became more and more depressed.
"Ah Ye—"
Suddenly, a voice from behind him broke the frozen image.
Gao Ye turned around quickly, looking hopefully, but saw a person who was already 'dead'.
"You-" Gao Ye hurriedly took a few steps back, but for some reason, the space that was originally empty as if it was infinitely large suddenly became incredibly narrow at this moment, and Gao Ye's retreat was stopped by the wall that appeared behind him at some point.
The body of the person who came came with a soft light, illuminating Gao Ye, who was submerged in darkness.
He gradually got closer, and his white and slender fingers gently caressed the other party's neck, which looked a little fragile, although the movement was gentle, it brought an indelible chill to Gao Ye.
Bai Lexiao! Isn't he dead? How did it end up here!
The surprise in his eyes became more and more intense as the other party approached, and his body was subconsciously unable to move, and Gao Ye was completely confused after smelling the faint fragrance coming from the other party.
Calm down, this must be fake.
All the things that happened here should be fake, and he had to be calm.
Gao Ye took a few deep breaths, moved his body that was suddenly unable to move due to excessive fright, and he raised his eyes to look straight into Bai Lexiao's smiling but unfathomable eyes, "Who are you?" ”
Bai Lexiao chuckled, "It's only been a long time since I saw you, and you forgot about me?" ”
Like, very much like.
This person's every move, even the curvature of the corners of his mouth, the strength of his chuckle, and the tone of his voice are very similar to Bai Lexiao, just like the same person.
The coolness coming from his neck penetrated into his heart, and Gao Ye reached out and tore off the hand that would kill him if he was not careful, "You are not him." ”
This person is like Bai Lexiao, but aren't the people he met before also very similar to the roles they played. What's more, Bai Lexiao had already died, killed by him with his own hands!
But before, he realized that he had experienced the same thing before, and it would break the strange picture.
And now?
The same method doesn't seem to work, because he hasn't even touched Bai Lexiao's memory in such a dark place!
"Hehe" Bai Lexiao lowered his eyes and stared at the hand that had just been touched, and smiled lowly.
This deliberately suppressed laughter had a hint of indescribable meaning, Gao Ye frowned, and with the light on Bai Lexiao's body, he began to look around the surroundings that had just changed.
It was also a dark place, but this time there was an extra door, a door that was very similar to the lounge he used to go to in the internship company he was working for.
Could it be that this is the lounge?
Gao Ye violently pushed away Bai Lexiao, who was in the way, and walked quickly to the front of the door.
He reached out and pushed it gently, but found that he couldn't open the door.
"This door is open." Bai Lexiao leaned against the wall and chuckled.
Opened?
Gao Ye paused to push the door, and then changed to pull the door.
Unlike just now, this time the door was opened very lightly, but Gao Ye didn't feel any joy because of this.
Even if the picture of the intrusion after opening the door was so vivid, it could not cancel out the fact that he had just opened the door that made him sure.
"What's wrong? Don't go out? Bai Lexiao walked behind Gao Ye, bowed his head slightly, approached the soft ear root, and whispered bewilderment.
Where to?
Gao Ye sneered, raised his eyes to look at the familiar internship company, as well as the colleagues who came and went from time to time, and shook his head slightly.
These are all fakes.
This is not the internship company he has stayed at at all, because the door just now, in his impression, should have been pushed open.
As soon as Gao Ye's thought came out, the surrounding scene changed again.
All things, people and things, began to distort and disappear, including Bai Lexiao, who had been resting his head on Gao Ye's shoulder.
However, unlike just now, this time he appeared in a small house that he had never been able to enter.
Gao Ye raised his eyes to stare at the jade soul sitting opposite, cross-legged Erlang, frowned and asked, "This time it's fake again?" ”
"No, it's true this time." Jade Soul put down the teacup in his hand and smiled, "You've finally woken up." Tell me, what did you just dream about? ”
"Dreams?" Gao Ye was stunned for a moment, "Isn't this the zombie who made the ghost?" ”
"What zombies." Jade Soul sneered, "Have you slept too long and slept stupidly, have you been staying in the space to cultivate, where are the zombies here!" ”
"Didn't you just say I was sleeping?" Gao Ye, who had been physically and mentally exhausted by round after round of illusions, had to cheer up again and find a way to break the illusion this time.
"You're too crazy in your cultivation!" After hearing these words full of distrust, the Jade Soul almost burst out, "Later, I used up the energy that I had collected with great difficulty, and you fell into a deep sleep and passed the dangerous period!" Otherwise, you would have died of poison! ”
Gao Ye looked at the jade soul silently, his eyes still full of doubt.
“”
In the small house, there was an eerie silence.
The Jade Soul spoke again depressedly, "However, I didn't expect that you would show no signs of waking up when you slept, so I guess you should have fallen into a nightmare." ”
"Nightmare is a hurdle that every supernatural person will go through in the long process of cultivation, if you can't wake up, you will be completely lost in the illusion of dreams, and you will never be able to get out of it until you finally fall into death. Conversely, if you can get past this hurdle, your ability level will increase dramatically. ”
Gao Ye was still silent, with no intention of making a sound.
"Before, I didn't tell you about this, because I thought you wouldn't encounter this catastrophe so soon, but I didn't expect that people are not as good as heaven, phew! It's not as good as jade! Jade Soul picked up the teacup and took a sip of the steaming tea.
"When did that dream begin?" Gao Ye asked out loud.
"I don't know, so I just asked you what you dreamed about." Jade Soul sighed, "To be honest, I almost thought you wouldn't wake up. ”
"Last night, I went out with Chongqiao, passed by a pharmacy, and walked in"
After Gao Ye's explanation, the bottom of the jade soul can be regarded as having a bottom.
"That's the part after you went out was all a dream, because yesterday, you did go to the living room and discuss the next itinerary with your friends."
"Yes." Jade Soul's words sounded like there were no flaws, but there was still a trace of doubt in his heart.
Forget it, let's see how the ability improves.
Gao Ye didn't say anything more, but concentrated on checking the situation in his body.
The light gray crystal nucleus, which had been wrapped in a thick black semi-solidified liquid, was now a little darker, and if Gao Ye hadn't looked carefully, he might have missed it.
So, is this an ability level increase?
"So what level am I now?" Gao Ye raised his eyebrows, withdrew his spiritual power, and asked in a low voice.
"Level 3, although it is still D-level, but it is already good, after all, you have only been activating the ability for a short time."
Gao Ye sighed, didn't say anything more, and walked out of the small house directly.
As soon as Gao Ye arrived in the room, he pushed open the door, walked directly to the room where Chongqiao was, and knocked on the door.
Not long after the knock on the door, Chongqiao opened the door.
"What's wrong? Ah Ye? "Chongqiao's spirit is not very good, and he is weak to speak.
Hearing this familiar voice that he kept hearing in his dreams, Gao Ye paused, and after seeing Chong Qiao's pale face, his doubts deepened, "Are you uncomfortable?" ”
"Well, a little, I've been dizzy and want to sleep since I woke up in the morning." Chongqiao smiled, "But I've already let Dr. Wang see it, and he said that I'm fine, I guess I just haven't rested well." ”
"Did you go out last night?" Gao Ye breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice.
"Get out? Where to go? I've been sleeping in my room all the time. Chongqiao looked confused, and Gao Ye had a toothache.
Zhao Linan hugged a bunch of things, like a ghost, and passed by the two of them lightly, and threw down a grudge word.
"It's enough for you to be lazy all morning, hurry up and help pack up! I have to leave for Y City on time in the afternoon! ”
When Gao Ye heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled relaxedly, and followed behind Zhao Lin'an, "I'll come now." ”
This time, it shouldn't be fake.
Chong Qiao stared at the distant backs of the two of them, curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and gently closed the door, blocking something that flashed in his eyes.
