Chapter 184: Split (3)

This is the dream!?

When he saw these four words at first glance, Shen Xing was stunned, and then he felt like the world was spinning.

"You say...... Now we're in a dream? He had to ask again.

Ah Chai squatted on the ground, looked up at him, then nodded quickly, stretched out his index finger and drew on the ground again, and a moment later another line of words appeared.

[I thought that the master could also appear at will in other people's dreams, so after I came out just now, I still felt very puzzled. 】

At this moment, Shen Xing felt that everything around him had become unreal, all of them were illusory, and he even had an illusory sense of existence.

If the current situation is really as Achai said, when did you enter the dream when you were in the dream? Why didn't you find out yourself?

Thinking about all this, it's scary to think about.

This was the first time Shen Xing had ever encountered such a strange situation, and he breathed heavily, trying to find a place to sit.

Soon he felt that his breathing was smooth, nothing unusual, and he went to the window and looked out, the street lights were dim in the early morning, but the street was quiet, there was no one to be seen, not a car to be seen.

Turning his head to look at the person who was already asleep on the bed, Shen Xing forced himself to slow down his breathing, calm his mood, and began to reminisce seriously.

He remembered that he had indeed used his heterogeneous pupils, and found from the hotel that there were more abnormal red auraes in the building opposite, and they were mainly concentrated in the room where Yao Jie and Yao Tong were.

Therefore, Shen Xing thought that this should be Yao Tong's most active period, so he decided to take this opportunity to come and have a look.

He carefully recalled all the experiences, and did not carry a backpack at that time, but inserted two pens in his trouser pocket, and when he touched his trouser pocket, the pens were still there.

After closing the door of the hotel room, I took the elevator directly downstairs and came to the street, where there was a spare taxi that saw me coming out of the hotel and was about to pull over.

Later, he realized that he didn't look like he was taking a taxi, so the taxi driver drove away again.

After crossing the street and arriving at the old building opposite, Shen Xing remembered that he found that the small door next to one of the windows under this building was not closed, so he directly opened the door and walked in.

The light on the first floor was dim, and it seemed that the voice-activated lights were also broken, so he turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone and went upstairs quietly.

After waiting to this floor, I found that the door of the living room of the room where Yao Tong was located was directly open, and when I stood at the door, Yao Tong was staring at a music box on the square table in a daze.

The music box was broken and could no longer function, and then he walked into the room and showed his intentions.

Thinking of this, Shen Xing suddenly became puzzled, "No, I went upstairs and got here, but what floor is this?" ”

He saw the two rooms on the opposite side of the hotel that represented the most unusual red aura, both on the fourth floor of the old building, but in his memory, he couldn't remember how many floors he had gone up to.

There must be something wrong here, Shen Xing didn't believe that Ah Chai would find this reason to deceive himself, after all, he was now his master.

But he unknowingly entered the dream realm, and all this transitioned very naturally, so that Shen Xing did not feel anything strange at all.

If it weren't for the fact that he summoned Ah Chai, who could appear in other people's dreams at will, I am afraid that all this would still be kept in the dark, and I don't know how long it would take to find out.

So after Ah Chai appeared just now, he would be surprised and would be eager to tell himself the truth.

Thinking of this, Shen Xing was a little worried about what kind of situation his body was currently in, and he immediately asked Ah Chai, "Am I in the dream of the girl lying on this bed now?" ”

Chai nodded, then shook his head again, and continued to write on the ground with his fingers.

[Here is her consciousness, similar to ordinary people's dreams, but this level of consciousness is very stable and powerful, I don't know how different it is from ordinary people's dreams for the time being. 】

Shen Xing groaned slightly, "In other words, the parents of this girl outside also don't know that they are in this Yao Tong's dream consciousness?" ”

[I shouldn't know, but it can't be ruled out that this girl named Yao Tong created her own parents with her consciousness.] 】

"I'm rubbing, so powerful!" Shen Xing smacked his tongue secretly.

After going through so many anomalies, he felt that he was careful enough, but in the face of this anomaly that he had never encountered and did not understand its properties, who knew that he still had a way.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he perfected his understanding of Yao Tong's characteristics in his heart, but now even if his reasoning is very successful, in the face of this powerful anomaly in the sequence chain, speculation alone still does not have much effect.

[Yao Tong, the current characteristics are 15% understood.] 】

At present, no matter how Shen Xing reasoned, the improvement value of his understanding of its characteristics was also very slow.

It's not that you didn't guess correctly, but even if your guess was correct, it was only at the level of guessing, and to this level of anomaly, it required deep contact.

After being reminded by Ah Chai just now, Shen Xing already knew that he was in a dream, but he found that his understanding of Yao Tong's characteristics had still only increased by 2%.

After thinking about it, Shen Xing said: "Ah Chai, you are more experienced than me in the dream, tell me how to wake up now?" ”

Now that he is in Yao Tong's dream, he is in a very passive situation, whether it is to learn more about Yao Tong or to leave here, this is very unfavorable, so the first thing Shen Xing has to think about is that he must wake up first.

And it is not clear what the current condition of his body is, if his body is in some kind of danger at this time, wouldn't it be terrible?

All in all, there are too many factors beyond his control, and he needs to take back the initiative immediately.

Ah Chai tilted his head, thought about it seriously, and wrote on the ground.

[If Yao Tong's subconscious control is not very strong, you need to hurt yourself and make yourself extremely uncomfortable with this environment, so that you can have a chance to wake up. 】

Shen Xing nodded, turned his head to look at the bedside table, opened the cabinet drawer, and then went to the rest of the bedroom to look for a while, but did not see any sharp objects.

Probably because Yao Tong was suffering from mental illness, her parents were worried that if there were sharp objects in the house, they would hurt her, so they took them all away and hid them.

This leads to the fact that in Yao Tong's dream, these things also do not exist, and I have to say that this girl has a high degree of restoration in the dream consciousness.

It's not for nothing that I haven't been able to distinguish between dreams and reality.

After a while, Shen Xing gave up looking and set his eyes on Yao Tong on the bed.

At this moment, Yao Tong is still asleep, for this scene, Shen Xing is very confused, since he is now in Yao Tong's dream, it means that this girl should be asleep in reality.

In other words, she is now asleep again in her dream, is this the so-called dream within a dream?

What appeared in her dreams was actually what she dreamed of?

In other words, in reality, Yao Tong may not have this ability to manifest other anomalies at all, which she did in her dreams.

In this way, her most powerful ability is the ability to unsuspectingly incorporate others into her own dream consciousness.

Shen Xing tried to pinch his thighs hard, and he could feel the pain, but it was far from the extent that he woke up in pain.

He turned his head to look and found that Achai was gone.

While wondering, Chai squeezed in through the crack in the closed bedroom door, opened his mouth, and spat out a kitchen knife from his mouth.

[Master, with this, I found it next door. 】

After a pause, Ah Cai asked again.

[Are the two people sitting outside Yao Tong's parents? ] I looked at it just now, they have their own ideology, similar to you, it shouldn't be created by Yao Tong himself out of thin air. 】

Shen Xing picked up the kitchen knife and nodded, he also guessed that the experience of Yao Tong's parents should be similar to his own, and after thinking about it, he said: "If I cut myself now, such as slashing my thigh, or my own arm, will I be injured in reality?" ”

Achai squatted on the ground and wrote quickly.

[If it's an ordinary dream, you can cut it casually, and if you break a little skin in reality, I'll lose.] However, the current dream consciousness is not ordinary, so there is a certain chance that it may cause harm in reality. If you slash your thigh now, the muscles in that part of the leg will hurt in reality, and the same knife wound may appear, but maybe it is just the reflex in the dream that makes the muscles hurt, and the reality will not cause the wound. 】

"Then you have to pay attention to it." Shen Xing probably understood.

After pulling the only wooden chair in the bedroom, he sat down, holding a kitchen knife in his right hand and stabbing his left arm.

However, he did not use the form of chopping, but cut it directly.

The clothes cracked in an instant, the muscles of the arms flipped up, and blood gushed out.

Shen Xing didn't care if the blood would stain his clothes and pants, a sharp pain hit, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he looked down at the wound.

Because of the severe pain, the knife cut a little deep, almost to see the bone.

Ah Chai stood aside, seemed a little surprised, and looked left and right.

The blood was still flowing, and although Shen Xing grinned in pain, he still sat on the wooden chair and did not disappear.

A moment later, Ah Chai suddenly pulled up his sleeve, cut it with a kitchen knife, rolled it around, and wrapped the wound on Shen Xing's arm.

Shen Xing looked at him in confusion.

I saw him write on the ground, "Can't get out, her consciousness is too strong, if you go on like this, your life will be in danger, real life danger!" The wound must now be treated immediately! 】

Seeing what he wrote, Shen Xing was also surprised, fortunately, when he didn't find a sharp object just now, he didn't bite off his tongue, although he had this idea at the time.

If you really want to bite off, it will definitely be extremely painful, but as now, you still can't wake up, and you can't go back.

Wouldn't that kill himself in Yao Tong's dream?

This scene reminded Shen Xing of Freddy in another memory of the "Ghost Street" movie, if he was killed by Freddy in his dream, then the person in reality would really die.

Is his current situation similar to this "Ghost Street"?

Although there is this possibility, Shen Xing can't confirm it at all.

The blood was still gushing out, and it couldn't be wrapped in the sleeves of the coat at all.

Shen Xing stood up and said to Ah Chai: "You first study Yao Tong, who is currently asleep, to see if she seems to be dreaming in her dreams, if there is anything new, notify me immediately, and I will go out to stop the bleeding." ”

As soon as the words fell, he got up, twisted open the bedroom door and walked out.

Yao Jie and Huang Guiping, who were sitting in the living room, were startled when they saw him like this, thinking that Shen Xing was injured by Yao Tong.

Shen Xing didn't explain, but said, "Do you have a first-aid kit at home?" Stop the bleeding for me first. ”

Huang Guiping immediately ran to the room next door, while Yao Jie pulled Shen Xing and asked him to sit on the sofa first, pressing his wound with his hand through the sleeve of his shirt that had been soaked in blood.

Not long after, Huang Guiping ran back with a small medicine box, and after opening it, she took out gauze and hemostatic bandages from it, and used a thick stack of gauze to hold down Shen Xing's arm wound.

After the blood did not flow out again, the couple used bandages to wrap the wound on the arm, Huang Guiping seemed to know some medical aid knowledge, and with her help, the wound was quickly treated.

"Mr. Shen, did Tong Tong hurt you?" Yao Jie dared to ask out loud at this time.

Shen Xing shook his head, didn't say anything about it, but diverted the topic, "The current question is a bit tricky, do you think there's something strange here?" That is, it is very different from usual. ”

Yao Jie and Huang Guiping glanced at each other and shook their heads.

In their opinion, there has always been a strangeness in their home, and this strangeness is not a common thing for them nowadays, but at least it is not strange.

The only thing they hope for is that Yao Tong can get better and truly live a good life as an ordinary person.

"Have you been out on the streets these days?" Shen Xing asked in a different way.

Although Ah Chai was also speculating, it was impossible to determine whether the couple was the original product of the dream, or whether they came in from sleep like Shen Xing.

So Shen Xing didn't tell them directly, this was Yao Tong's dream.

Yao Jie said: "I asked for leave from the unit, and the insomnia in the past two days was a little serious, so I didn't go to the street. ”

Huang Guiping also said: "There are still a lot of vegetables bought at home, and I haven't gone out to buy them for the past two days. ”

"Haven't been out yet?" Shen Xing frowned and pointed out the window, "Although it's late now, you go to the window and take a look at the street outside to see if you can find anything abnormal." ”

The couple looked surprised, and went to stand by the window.

Shen Xing stood up, feeling that his left arm was still hurting, this pain was very real, and he didn't know how his body was doing in reality?

He went to the bedroom door, pushed the door in, and closed the door with his hand.

If Yao Jie and his wife can find the abnormality, it can basically mean that they are the same as Shen Xing, but if they can't find it, then it may be the product of this dream.

In the bedroom at this time, the black shadow Achai bent over, as if staring into Yao Tong's eyes, and seemed to be sensing something from her.

Seeing Shen Xing come in, he immediately wrote his words on the ground.

[She is indeed asleep, but it is impossible to tell if she is dreaming.] 】

"Can you go in and have a look?" Shen Xing asked.

Achai suddenly became hesitant.

[I don't dare to enter her dream-within-a-dream, I may never be able to come out again, because she is so powerful that her consciousness can form a space isolated from the outside world. 】

Shen Xing frowned and asked, "Then can you leave this dream and return to reality?" ”

Achai sensed it slightly, nodded, and wrote, "But I can't guarantee that I will be able to come in again."

His own structure is completely different from that of humans, and even his life form is different, so Shen Xing can't imagine what kind of way Achai is going in and out of other people's dreams.

"You go out first, protect my body, don't let my body be harmed." Shen Xing instructed: "If you get any key information outside, be sure to notify me in time." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw that the black shadow in front of me began to fade, fading more and more, until it was completely transparent. In a few seconds, Achai disappeared so strangely.

……

A gloomy staircase corner.

There is a leaky water pipe on the ceiling on the fourth floor, and water droplets are dripping down.

Tick, tick, tick......

The sound of water drops in this inky night shrouded in the old building looks empty and weird, revealing an unbearable uneasiness.

Except for the shops on the first floor, it seems that the upstairs has been uninhabited for a long time.

At the corner of the stairs leading from the third floor to the fourth floor, a man's figure was lying here, breathing evenly, as if he had fainted.

The drop of water hit the staircase not far from his cheek, and the left side of the young man's cheek was now soaked in water.

A black shadow flashed suddenly, appearing out of thin air directly on the side of the fainted man, and after seeing the person on the ground, he was startled and immediately prepared to help.

But at this moment, footsteps sounded in the corridor on the fourth floor.

The voice was dull, giving the impression that he was walking barefoot without shoes.

The shadow didn't have time to continue, and immediately floated backwards, burrowing into a cracked wall.

After a while, a thin, disheveled girl figure appeared at the staircase on the fourth floor, approaching the man lying on his stomach.

This girl is Yao Tong, she still does not wear shoes, but walks down the stairs barefoot, every step is very steady, although there is no light here, but it does not seem to affect her movements.

Step by step, until he was completely standing next to the man lying on his stomach, the droplets that fell hit Yao Tong's shoulder, the droplets were cold, but Yao Tong didn't react at all.

Not only that, but her eyes are still closed, and she has not opened them from the time she walked to the present.
