Chapter 7 Xiang's Divine Deer
Zou Qing listened to Ling'er's words and began to regret that he had accepted the identity of the Dream Killer so easily.
"Time in the dream is much faster than in reality, about twelve times or so, so just now we passed a few hours in the dream world, and in reality it is less than an hour. Ling'er said while holding the roasted sausage in one hand.
The third brother should have seen the retreat in Zou Qing's expression, and said: "Once the magic mirror accepts you, it will follow you until you die or are unable to drive the magic mirror anymore, you must know this in your heart." ”
Zou Qingxin finished speaking, this can't be shaken off, it was really better to move bricks at that time, at least there is no danger to life! The Xuan Xijing in his arms seemed to sense Zou Qing's mood at this time, and moved slightly.
Zou Qing smiled bitterly and said, "Then since you want me to become a qualified dream killer quickly, you should always tell me some skills, right? Also, if you don't want me to starve to death, you have to tell me how this job is paid as soon as possible!"
"The demons only come out at night, and we have already lost for a while tonight, and if we fail again tomorrow, we will basically stop mixing and just melt into the mirror body to apologize. So tomorrow night will definitely be a tough battle! During the day, we will teach you some things, but they are all some general simple methods, we don't know the specific use of the Xuanxi mirror, this can only be asked by your master. The third brother stared at Zou Qing and said in a relaxed tone, but Zou Qing could hear the disappointment in his tone, maybe the third brother himself felt that with Zou Qing such a half-ass, it was unlikely that he would win tomorrow.
After a simple meal, they returned to their residence to rest, Zou Qing was so worried that he couldn't sleep, at this time he already felt the weight of his responsibility, but whether he could take on this responsibility, even he didn't know in his own heart.
Finally fell asleep again in a daze, he dreamed of a lot of things this night, there were gurgling water and shady forests, the clear dream suddenly changed the style of painting, and a huge black gas emerged behind a mountain, and the black gas quickly covered the entire sky, hovering and falling in front of Zou Qing, slowly showing a hideous giant beast, opening its mouth and biting down the ...... at Zou Qing.
When he woke up the next day, Zou Qing felt that his body was in good condition, it seemed that he could see farther, the sound in his ears was clearer, and even the ankle he accidentally twisted the day before yesterday was no longer sore. He knew that this was the credit of opening the Heavenly Eye and the Xuanxi Mirror, he picked up the Xuanxi Mirror and groped, and said in his heart that it was not completely beneficial to be a dreamer!
Ling'er was already waiting for him downstairs, and the three of them had a simple breakfast, and the third brother found a book from the master's bookshelf and read it. Ling'er took him up to the second floor and began to teach him some methods.
Ling'er stood in front of Zou Qing and said: "The mirror spirits that exist in the magic mirror are all different, the mana of the mirror spirit is deep and shallow, and the type is offensive and defensive, so I can't teach you how to use your Xuanxi mirror." I'm going to teach you how to get into dreams first. ”
Ling'er took out her magic mirror, which was a very delicate bronze mirror, the mirror surface was flat and smooth, and the diameter was only a few centimeters, with traces of years of use and wiping.
In the middle of the back of the bronze mirror there is a raised circular knob, on the sides of the knob carved some simple patterns, which look like some flowers and plants, and in the middle of the flowers, stand two deer with four horns.
"This is my magic mirror, 'Xiang's Shenlu' mirror, this mirror was cast by the Han Dynasty Xiang's mirror caster, it was not an illegal mirror at the beginning, and then it was accidentally obtained by Dou Shaoqing, and it became a magic mirror after injecting mana. Ling'er said and pointed to the bottom of the knob, and Zou Qing looked carefully and found that there was a not-so-obvious word "嚮" carved in the center of the position.
After speaking, Ling'er held the mirror in both hands and said: "It's not difficult to enter the dream, you just need to hold the mirror steadily, close your eyes and use the eye of heaven to wake up the magic mirror." Then Ling'er stood motionless in front of Zou Qing, and Zou Qing walked up to Ling'er and looked at the mirror of the Shenlu Mirror.
After she adjusted her breathing, a red light appeared on the edge of the mirror of the deer mirror, and after a circle around the edge of the mirror, it swam to the middle of the mirror, and then spread out, like ink dripping into a glass of water.
Zou Qing looked at Ling'er again, her cheeks were slightly red, her eyes kept rolling under her eyelids, and she was breathing evenly, as if she was asleep.
After almost a minute, Ling'er slowly opened her eyes and said, "Okay, now you can try." ”
"Huh, aren't there a few spells or something?" Zou Qing asked incredulously.
"Don't talk nonsense, do what I just said, and after closing your eyes, your heavenly eyes will open. ”
Ling'er said and stretched out his hand to cover Zou Qing's eyes, then asked him to hold the Xuanxi mirror in both hands, and continued: "Take the magic mirror, face the mirror towards yourself, eliminate distracting thoughts, and adjust your breathing." ”
Zou Qing did as Ling'er said and began to adjust his breathing.
At first, it was dark, and slowly there was a slight burning sensation in his eyebrows, and then a pale cyan light as thin as a gossamer appeared in front of his eyes, but the light flashed in front of his eyes.
"Open your eyes!" Ling'er said.
Zou Qing opened his eyes and asked suspiciously, "Am I not doing what you say?"
"If you had done what I said, you would have been in a dream by now. You have to be distracted, and your mirror spirit is fleeting because you must be thinking about something else. Ling'er said.
Zou Qing pursed his lips disapprenously, and said in his heart that it was not because of the smell of perfume on your body that affected me, and then adjusted his emotions, and then closed his eyes again.
This time he tried not to think about anything again, and focused all his attention on the darkness in front of him, his breathing and heartbeat gradually became smooth and even, and slowly he saw the pale cyan light again.
Between breaths, his entire consciousness followed the light in front of him, and the light began to lead him forward, and then the light flashed to his brow.
When he opened his eyes again, Zou Qing really appeared in his dream last night.
The warm sun shone on him, the wind blew, his hair moved with the wind, and he saw the forest in front of him, the flowing water, and the mountain in the distance.
It's not like a dream, I really seem to have arrived in such a beautiful place.
Zou Qing smiled, and said in his heart that it was really not difficult to enter the dream realm! It wasn't such a mysterious thing! Just as he was about to walk to the forest not far away, he saw a puff of black smoke suddenly gushing out from the back of the mountain, and the black smoke swirled upwards and then rushed quickly in his direction.
He thought of the monster in his dream, and was shocked, knowing that this monster might come and eat him in a while, so he scolded and turned his head and ran.
Before he could hide behind a large rock, the black smoke had already fallen on the place where he had just stood, and the black smoke gradually dispersed, and the monster slowly showed its form.
It looked like a dark dragon, covered in gray armor, with four paws on the ground, and a pair of snake-like yellow eyes looking around, and then it looked in the direction of Zou Qing. Then he quickly spread out his newly retracted wings and flew up, and after a strange cry in the air, he opened his big mouth and rushed towards Zou Qing.
Zou Qing shouted, "Oh my mother!" and turned around and continued to run backwards.
