The 94th story of Dreamcatcher (1)
Hu Die is an online novel writer, because of work, she has to stay up late often, and over time she has insomnia. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoDuring this time, she not only had insomnia, but sometimes she finally fell asleep and had nightmares.
Although the theme of her novel is horror fiction, this daily nightmare is enough for her!
On this day, she was shopping alone, and as she walked, she was attracted by a group of people around the roadside. When I walked into the crowd, it turned out to be an old woman setting up a stall to sell things.
Hu Die looked at the strange things on the old woman's stall, there were many things that Hu Die had never seen. But there is one thing she knows, and that is a "dreamcatcher" invented by an Indian!
It was a wind chime-like thing woven from feathers, leather, and some cow tendon thread. Gu said that it can capture beautiful dreams and dissipate the nightmares in people's hearts. Isn't this what Hu Die needs most now?
"Mother-in-law, how can this dreamcatcher be sold?" Hu Die asked politely.
The old woman raised her cloudy eyes, looked Hu Die up and down a few times, and said, "Girl, do you know what this is for?" ”
Hu Die nodded and said, "I know, it's something that makes people have a good dream." ”
But the old woman shook her head and said, "No, this is something that can capture dreams, if you often have nightmares, it can trap all your nightmares in it, this thing has been around for some years, are you sure you want it?" ”
"Of course, I love it. How much? Hu Die said affirmatively.
The old woman waved her hand and said, "If you really want it, I can sell it to you cheaper, but remember, don't break it, or all the nightmares in it will come out......"
Hu Die was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect this old woman to say something very mysterious, but when she heard the price quoted by the old woman, she bought this mysterious-looking dreamcatcher without saying a word.
Hu Die hung it up after he got home, not to mention, as soon as this thing hung on the head of the bed, it really had the feeling of a North American Indian tribe. That night, Hu Die went to bed early.
I don't know if it's because of this dreamcatcher, or if she went to bed early that day, anyway, she had no dreams all night, and she slept very sweetly. The next morning, she got up to work in full spirit.
Hu Die felt that she hadn't had such a good sleep quality for a long time, she looked up at the dreamcatcher, could it really be working?
Hu Die, who had been working all morning, was a little tired, she shook her somewhat stiff cervical spine, and wanted to go to the refrigerator to find something to eat. At this time, she suddenly heard some noise downstairs, and she looked down from the window to see a police car parked below.
Because of her professional habits, Hu Die was more curious about these things, so she went downstairs with her bag like a senior reporter. As a result, as soon as she walked to the second floor, she found that the accident was room 202, which was in the same unit as her.
There were many neighbors standing at the door of 202, and Hu Die could only look inside at the door. She is not very familiar with this family, but she knows that the man is a small civil servant in a government unit, and the woman seems to be a teacher in an elementary school.
When Hu Die was looking inside with everyone at the door to see if he could hear something, he saw two policemen carrying a stretcher from inside, and it seemed that it should be a dead man.
At this time, the people who watched the excitement immediately dispersed, leaving Hu Die standing there stupidly. As the policeman passed by her with a stretcher, she saw a hand sticking out of the stretcher at a glance.
It was a woman's hand, because the fingers were painted with gaudy nail polish. When the woman's hand fell out of the stretcher, a picture suddenly flashed in Hu Die's mind.
The picture is blurry, as if someone is holding something and strangling a woman's neck. The picture flashed again, and this time Hu Die saw it clearly, isn't this the hostess on the second floor? I saw that she was struggling desperately, but in the end she was strangled to death at home.
These incoherent images kept flashing in Hu Die's mind, like a movie trailer. In her trance, the police had cordoned off the scene and left with all the physical evidence.
At this time, Aunt Liu on the third floor said to everyone, "See? I heard that the female teacher on the second floor had someone kill her in the house! It's like being strangled! ”
Aunt Liu shook her head at Uncle Zhao at the door and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I think it will be strangled to death!" Don't look at that female teacher usually looks quite serious, but once I saw a strange man send her home, and then the two of them quarreled! ”
"Yo! Could it be that her husband killed her? "Grandma Wang on the first floor also came up to see the excitement.
But Aunt Liu said with certainty: "No, I think her husband is a very honest person, besides, I know that he went on a business trip a few days ago!" Not at home at all. ”
This group of gossiping neighbors is talking nonsense here, Hu Die didn't have time to listen to their nonsense here, so he turned around and went upstairs.
When she returned home, she was still thinking about the fragment that appeared in her mind before, was it her hallucination? Or is it that if you write too many supernatural novels, you can also be psychic?
At this time, Hu Die inadvertently glanced at his arm, but found that there was a scratch on his arm, which did not look like a new scratch, and the surrounding skin was a little red, swollen and inflamed.
When Hu Die saw it, he hurriedly took out the external ointment and applied it to himself, but he couldn't remember when he scratched himself.
Today is the day of the editor's reminder, Hu Die took a look at his results today, it seems that he will have to work overtime again in the evening! So she simply ate something and began to light the lamp and boil the oil.
I don't know what time she wrote, until Hu Die heard a loud sound from the bedroom, she was also startled, and then immediately ran to the bedroom.
Hu Die is used to living alone, so she can still deal with any sounds at night. When I walked into the bedroom, I saw that the dreamcatcher hanging at the head of the bed had fallen to the ground.
It seems that he was careless and did not close the window, which made the wind blow down. Hu Die carefully picked up the dreamcatcher from the ground, only to find that one of the cow tendon threads was broken.
At this time, Hu Die thought of the old woman's words, and felt a little uneasy. But she took a closer look and found that it was just a little broken, as long as the two fractures were connected, there should be no big problem, thinking of this, Hu Die started to connect the broken dreamcatcher!
She is still ingenious, and the repaired dreamcatcher is not much different from before, and those who don't know that it has been broken will definitely not be able to see it.
Hu Die looked at his craftsmanship proudly, and then hung it on the head of the bed...... (To be continued.) )
