Chapter 18: The Goddess of Dreams
The end of a topic brings a chill.
For a long time, Liu Ronghua looked up at Sun Yimin and asked, "It's just that you broke up with Xue'er, but after so many years, hasn't there been any other girl in your eyes?" So much so that you wasted such a great spring? ”
"There's one, but I don't know if it's counted." Sun Yimin replied with a smile.
This aroused Liu Ronghua's curiosity: "Oh? Tell me about ......"
Sun Yimin did not answer his question directly, was silent for a moment, but asked rhetorically: "Have you ever had such an experience of liking someone because you dreamed of someone?" ”
Liu Ronghua was silent for a moment and said, "Yes." One night when I was in junior high school, I dreamed for some reason that the female deputy head of the class took the initiative to show me favor and asked me to go climbing the mountain together, and I took her hand in the process of climbing. It was my first intimate encounter with a girl and I woke up ......"
Sun Yimin involuntarily interjected: "When you wake up, you feel cold somewhere?" He imagined that the merry boy Liu Ronghua must have been like this when he was a teenager.
"Not really!" Liu Ronghua denied with a smile, "At the age when the love calf is first opened, the imagination of the opposite sex is very simple, eh...... I mean, when I woke up, I liked her, and I followed her every day in the classroom. She wasn't actually pretty, and I had a mediocre impression of her before. Just because after having that dream, for some reason, I felt that she was very kind and beautiful. ”
"That's right, it's really innocent!" Sun Yimin sighed, "The liking of my youth is really pure liking, and I can't mix it with any evil thoughts." ”
"Have you ever had one?" Liu Ronghua asked.
"Yes, but it's slightly different from yours."
"I want to hear about it."
Sun Yimin was silent for a while, and said: "The girl I dreamed of, she is not any woman I know in reality, she only exists in my dreams. The girl in the dream is gentle and beautiful, petite and lovely, with a little bit of arrogance like ice and jade...... Her image is in line with my imagination of a beautiful woman. Unlike ordinary dreams, the vision in this dream is so clear, especially the woman's appearance is so detailed and realistic, that until I wake up, I won't believe it's just a dream......"
"And then?" Ryu asked.
"We have known each other for a long time in a dream, but she suddenly showed her heart to me on that day."
"Showing your heart is what it means to confess?"
"Yes, I've always been secretly attracted to her, but I've never dared to speak. But I didn't expect her to show her heart to me first. At that moment, I was ecstatic. And then we got along with each other as a matter of course. Gradually, I cherished and loved her more and more, and gave all my enthusiasm, but her attitude towards me gradually became cold, and she communicated with me less and less. I asked her why she was snubbed, and she said, 'We can't be together.'" I asked why, but she turned away and was never found. In the midst of grief and despair, I woke up from my dreams. Since then, I have been thinking about her in my dreams, and I have been haunted by my dreams. extremely
to, there is a kind of idea that she will not marry. ”
Liu Ronghua chuckled: "I remember that day when you first came to the game, you said an allusion to the goddess of Wushan, and now you have taken your name as Xiangwang Youmeng." So the dream you are talking about today, could it be that you want to emulate the sages and have evil thoughts about the gods? ”
Sun Yimin smiled: "Haha, this dream is indeed a little similar to that allusion." ”
Liu Ronghua said: "It's just a pity, why can't you even dream a little more perfectly, and you have to leave people with regrets?" ”
"yes!" Sun Yimin sighed, "It is said that what cannot be obtained is the best, and the things in the dream belong to the extreme situation that cannot be obtained." ”
Liu Ronghua was silent.
Sun Yimin said: "For a long time after that, I have been thinking about such a question: why did this strange woman I never know appear in my dream, and one day I suddenly understood the reason. ”
"Why?" Liu Ronghua looked surprised, as if he was listening to a gripping supernatural story.
Sun Yimin slowly explained: "The people and things in the dream may seem like objective objects experienced in another time and space on the surface, but in fact, they are nothing more than false mirror images created by one's own subjective consciousness in sleep. In other words, the image of the woman in my dream was created by myself, and the basis for my creation of her was actually my personal preference and recognition of the beautiful side of all women. ”
Liu Ronghua looked at each other with a confused expression.
Sun Yimin added: "In fact, everyone will subconsciously construct a perfect image according to their own preferences, she has a unique appearance, figure, voice, and connotation. It's just that she doesn't necessarily appear in dreams. You've pursued so many girls, in fact, the reason why you like them is just that they are close to the beautiful image in your subconscious. ”
"Is that so?" Liu Ronghua looked at him with a puzzled expression.
Sun Yimin nodded: "You can carefully review the girl you once loved, is it not as perfect as you hoped?" But even if it's not perfect, you still accept her, isn't that a kind of compromise? ”
Liu Ronghua was silent chewing on the other party's words, was silent for a moment, and asked, "Is it?" According to this, all the opposite sex we love in reality are just the spare tire of the goddess in our dreams? ”
Sun Yimin smiled and nodded: "So to speak." What we fall in love with is the illusion in our hearts. It's only because I can't have it that I look for sustenance in reality. ”
After listening to Sun Yimin's discussion, Liu Ronghua's sluggish face slowly stretched a smile, and then the smile gradually expanded. I saw him laugh and say, "Haha, it's the first time I've heard this kind of bizarre theory." But...... Sounds like it makes a lot of sense. ”
"And that's why you're so attentive." Sun Yimin quipped.
"If you say so, it just means that I don't care," Liu Ronghua retorted: "The ideal woman in my heart that I love in my heart, but I have no chance with her in this life, so I can only continue to look for spiritual sustenance in real life." ”
"If you are faithful, you should not look for a substitute." Sun Yimin said.
"Isn't it the same for everyone? Including you, aren't you also flowery? Liu Ronghua asked rhetorically.
"I don't care, I just want that perfect goddess." Sun Yimin said with a smile.
"That doesn't exist in reality, are you going to fight a bachelor in this life?" Liu Ronghua asked rhetorically.
Sun Yimin thought for a while and said with a smile: "Okay, it's okay if it's not perfect, it's okay to be 99% close." ”
