Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Strange Dream
It happened suddenly, because I didn't expect such a big movement beforehand, so I didn't have time to dodge, and the flames sprayed directly into my face.
And seeing the flames coming out of the statue, I was taken aback, and the first thought that came to my mind was actually that I was deceived by Chunting?
At such a critical juncture, I actually had the leisure to look at Chunting's expression, but I saw that he was as shocked and helpless as me, and it didn't seem that he had harmed me.
Inexplicably, I felt the stone hanging in my heart put down, and I was about to throw away the statue that was still burning in my hand, but suddenly I felt that the flame not only did not make me feel burned, but on the contrary, it made me feel warm.
I hurriedly signaled Chunting not to move, this flame does not seem to be an ordinary flame, and it does not mean to hurt me, Chunting saw my reaction, his expression was a little slower, but he still stared at me intently, for fear that I would have something wrong.
I saw that the flames that erupted from the mouth of this statue sprayed straight into my face, slowly penetrating into my brain from my seven orifices, not only did not cause me any harm, but seemed to be absorbed by me.
For a moment, the scene was extremely weird.
I held the statue in one hand and the Guigu Order in the other, and the flames in the statue's mouth seemed to be endless, aiming at my brain and slowly erupting.
Chunting was looking at me from the sidelines, standing or sitting, his eyes were full of anxiety, but he didn't dare to make a rash move.
As the minutes passed, the flames in the statue seemed to have erupted to the end, and as the last rays of flame entered my brain, my eyes went black and I fainted.
……
I don't know how long it took, I slowly woke up, my mind filled with a fiery heat, and along with my body, this warmth was transmitted to my limbs, and I couldn't tell the warmth.
In the haze, I opened my eyes, at first it was a blur, only felt that there was light in a trance, and there were many shadows, but I couldn't see what was in front of me, and after a long time, I slowly saw the scene in front of me, and after seeing clearly, it surprised me.
I'm actually here!
At my feet is an altar, the floor of which is made entirely of silver, carved with intricate patterns, stretching into the distance, with five huge stone pillars standing at the end of the patterns, meticulous and ingenious, revealing the vicissitudes of history and the indescribable majesty and mystery on the stone pillars.
The five stone pillars are inscribed with mysterious ornaments that are not recorded in the historical records, and at the top of each stone pillar, there seems to be a statue, two of which shine in this dark space, and I look closely, it is Bi Fang and the Pig.
And the person in front of me shocked me even more.
He wears a crown of heaven on his head, wears a dark robe, on which there are twelve embroidered texts such as the sun, moon and stars, the sun and moon are embroidered on both shoulders, the stars are embroidered on the back of the neck, the waist is tied with a jade belt inlaid with gold cloud dragon pattern, and the feet are on the high-waisted red compass dragon heavy shoes, although there is no speech or action, but it exudes a majesty that people dare not look up to.
Most importantly, he has a face that is exactly like mine.
I've been in my dreams for more than 20 years?
For a moment, I didn't know what to say.
There is no doubt that I am in that dream now, and this dream is obviously different from the past, I don't see the wine pot and sword in the hands of the person in front of me, I don't see the person dressed as the emperor and queen beside him that day, and I don't see the civil and military ministers lined up in an orderly manner left and right behind him.
The only creature on this empty altar besides the stone pillars was me and him, or rather, two people with the same face.
"You're finally ...... Found here......"
Before I could react from my horror, the man in front of me was the first to speak.
Agitated, I stepped forward and tried to grab his hand, asking him a series of questions.
"Who are you? Why do you look exactly like me? Where is this again? How do I get out? ”
But my outstretched hand seemed to pass through the air, and this man was right in front of me, but I couldn't grasp it, as if he had never existed.
"Here it is...... Your dreams, your ...... It should not be unfamiliar with ......"
Ignoring my actions, he spoke slowly in a hoarse voice, and for some reason he seemed to speak with extreme effort and at an extremely slow pace.
"Of course I know it's my dream, but it's just a dream, why did I enter this dream now?"
Full of questions, but I can only ask him one by one.
"Here...... It's still a dream, waiting for you to wake up...... You're going back......"
The person in front of me looked directly at me and continued to speak to me at that strange pace, but there was a gloom between his eyebrows.
Listening to what he said, I was relieved, it seems that I didn't really come here, just entered this weird dream again, but every time I was just a bystander, why was I able to communicate with him this time?
I couldn't help the horror and curiosity in my heart, and I kept asking questions like a cannon.
"Who are you? Where is this? Why did my hedgehog statue send me here? ”
"Time is limited...... Can't explain too much......"
His expression seemed a little impatient, and after saying this, he stretched out his hand and pointed to my forehead, obviously I couldn't touch his body just now, but with his movements, I felt a real touch.
As his hand touched my forehead, a flood of information rushed into my mind, and I had a splitting headache because of the amount of information, and I crouched on the ground, holding my head in my hands to try to relieve the sudden headache.
Seeing my reaction, he sighed and waved at me, and my eyes went black and I fell into darkness again, and in the darkness I vaguely heard his last words to me.
"Latecomers...... Don't give up...... I'm waiting for you here...... This is your destiny...... I can't hide from ......"
……
I don't know how long it was, but I woke up again, but I didn't dare to open my eyes, for fear that I was still in the strange altar.
As my fingers twitched slightly, I heard a familiar exclamation ringing in my ear.
"Brother Chuan, you're awake! Brother Chunting, Brother Ling Xuan, come on, Brother Chuan is awake! ”
It sounded like Qi Zhi was coming from, it seemed that I had left that strange dream, and I heard the footsteps of everyone outside the door, and my heart was relieved, and I fell asleep again.
……
When I woke up again, it was night, tentatively opened my eyes, only to see Qi Zhi and Shen Lang sleeping next to my bed, I smiled with relief, trying to reach for the water cup at the head of the bed, but I didn't expect this small act to wake up the two of them.
"Brother Chuan, you're awake!"
"Brother Chuan, how's it going?"
The tone of the two of them was equally hurried, and I could hear their anxiety and concern.
I smiled and spoke.
"I'm fine, don't worry, I want to drink water......"
After saying that, I couldn't help but be stunned.
The sound I make now is exactly the same as that of my dream self!
