Chapter 13: When Fake Is True
It's really difficult to find an inn at this time, and seeing that Yan Lie didn't object, he asked the price, and nodded and agreed.
On the way to the place where he stayed, Bang Xi learned that the woman's husband's surname was Yao, and her husband was a scholar, who had been studying in the Waitou Academy all year round in order to go to Beijing for the exam. Because there were a lot of coils on the road, Yao often sold some embroidery work, or rented out the vacant house in his family, as he does now.
"Here it is. As they spoke, the three of them turned into a quiet alley and came to a small vermilion door.
After listening to Yao's self-report, I thought that her family should be very poor, but I was a little surprised after walking through the small door, this environment does not look like a poor family.
The three-entry house also has a small building, and a pond is dug in the garden next to it, with lush vegetation and fragrant birds.
"It's just left by the ancestors of the husband's family, except for the bigger house, there is nothing else. Yao Shi stroked his sideburns and smiled embarrassedly, "The two of you will rest in this small building tonight, if you need anything, you can call me at any time." ”
"Thank you, ma'am. Wan Xi thanked politely, stepped into the small building, only took a few steps and found that Yan Lie did not come in, turned his head, and saw him standing at the door, his eyes falling on the garden next to the small building.
Her gaze also looked at the flower garden, and saw that the flowers seemed to have been carefully designed when they were cultivated, and the different colors seemed to follow a certain pattern, arranged in different positions, and scattered.
Seeing Yan Lie staring at those flowers, Bang Xi also took a few more looks, thinking that these flowers are good-looking, but it's not worth staring at all the time, right?
She wondered, "What are you looking at?"
Yan Lie ignored her, but turned his face and suddenly stared at Yao.
Yao's heart tightened, but his face was still calm and hospitable.
It wasn't until Yan Lie lightly looked away and stepped into the small building that Yao breathed a sigh of relief, obviously he was such a handsome Lang Jun, but his gaze was as sharp as substance, which made people feel pressured.
"There are exactly two adjoining rooms upstairs, no more, no less, just right. Bang Xi stood on the edge of the stairs and said to Yan Lie.
Yan Lie nodded, passed by her, pushed open the door to the room on the left, and then closed it neatly.
"Smack. ”
Outside the door: "......"
A quarter of an hour later, Yao commanded his servants to bring hot water, and with Yan Lie's light, Bang Xi, who had been sleeping in the open for a long time, finally lived a normal life for one night.
Delicious dinner, a comfortable hot bath, and a soft mattress......
As soon as she lay down in bed that night, she fell asleep almost immediately.
She even had a dream in which she dreamed of her childhood experience, which was not a happy time for her.
At that time, my father had been gone for a few years, but the imperial medicine had not been traced for a long time, and there were rumors on the island. Although everyone didn't embarrass her, with the identity of Changheng's daughter, she would feel all kinds of hidden peeping wherever she went, and over time she didn't want to fit in.
Later, fortunately, with the compassion of the elders and her personal teaching, she also lived up to expectations and showed the talent of the Feng family, and the rumors were calmed down.
She couldn't help her father who was away, but she could prove in this way that the strength of their Feng family was unquestionable, and the imperial medicine had not been recovered for a long time, so it must have happened to her father.
It's just that tonight's dreams are really annoying, and those buzzing voices seem to come from all directions, everywhere, and have a tendency to escalate into mockery. When he looked around, trying to find out the source of those sounds, all he came into contact with was silent and contemptuous faces.
When she was a child, she was sensitive, and what she was most afraid of was to see others show such looks, but now in this dream, these faces that made her uneasy twisted in an instant, turned into invisible pressure, woven into a thick net, and attacked her!
"Ahh
The feeling of lack of oxygen was very real, and she struggled, but she couldn't escape the strange bondage.
Little by little, the oxygen in the lungs was depleted, and the tension had turned from a struggle to an involuntary convulsion, and only the will was still struggling to support itself in a painful darkness.
When she was dying, the flow of time seemed to slow down, the operation of her mind seemed to speed up, and many things rushed through her mind, and she suddenly grabbed a person - Yao, wasn't she resting at her house?
Thinking of her sudden enthusiasm for soliciting them, thinking of Yan Lie's statement that her garden was very chic, thinking of her own strange dreams......
Yao's has a problem! This place has a problem!
This terrible dream may have something to do with the garden, and the only way to escape this dream is to wake up!
The strange faces of the people swirled around him, and they kept laughing mockingly, and they looked at the girl twitching in the dust, and their faces showed a smug look on their faces. It's just that in the next second, they were stunned.
The girl, who was still desperately resisting, seemed to have suddenly given up resistance, and the frightened look on her face gradually became calmer.
At the same time, the strange faces found that the restraints they had imposed on the girl were weakening uncontrollably.
"What's going on?"
"How so?"
......
In the dark, the strange faces whispered.
"I wonder if you're having fun in my dreams?" the girl's unique sweet voice suddenly sounded, as if it were coming from all directions.
The strange faces were silent for a moment, and then they screamed even more noisily, "Ah, you've got the hang of it!"
"How did you get out of our shackles?"
"When it's true, it's true," he paused, and the next moment his voice became cold, "This is my territory, you guys, get out of here now."
Penetrated the laws of the dream world, as the master of the dream world, Bang Xi is naturally the master of all things.
As soon as the words fell, the entire dream world changed drastically, as if an invisible hand was churning in the sky, and the clouds were clear.
"She actually cracked the formation!" The screams came and went, and those countless strange faces still wanted to struggle, but they inevitably disappeared the moment they touched the light of the sky.
After a short time, when the golden sunlight covered the land again, all the strange faces were gone, and no trace was to be found. The whole dream world was clear, and the girl on the bed also opened her eyes.
The cold sweat was already soaking through the back, but he didn't even have time to put on his coat, so he hurried to the next room.
