I hurried to the pool.

By the time I arrived, the full moon had risen into the night sky, peeking through the clouds, and there was a faint mist shrouded in the vicinity of the Forgotten Pool, and there was an indescribable eerie atmosphere.

The people of the village, surrounded by the pool, repeatedly muttered strange language that I did not understand, as if the collective was evil. I rushed into the crowd, but there was no sign of the child, but seeing that the people were already surrounded by this figure, it was clear that something had happened before.

I grabbed the people nearby and pressed me to ask, but they didn't pay any attention to me as if they were being put on the upper body, and even my alienated terrifying appearance had no deterrent effect on them.

Alone, who looked odd, looked at me with a completely normal human gaze.

It was the father of the child.

I quickly approached him, "What about people?" ”

He pointed to the pond, "Go down, get baptized, and our village will be stable in the future...... Settled down......"

"Maniac."

I took a step back, turned and jumped into the pool.

Everything Mina did was to persecute me, and there was no reason for her to really hurt that child. Although his appearance has become strange now, I always believe that Mina will have a way to restore him, and Mina will not really become something I don't know at all.

Even if she has really changed, at least there is Du Youlan.

Maybe the woman has a way.

In any case, as long as my hand can touch it, I must hold it......

I jumped into the water, the pool was clear, but after all, it was late at night, I couldn't see what was down there, the biggest black shadow, was the upside-down "idol", I used my feet and limbs, let myself dive quickly, at the top of the idol, I saw a huge body, just like the fake alienated boy I destroyed in the woods before.

But at that moment, I felt something follow me.

I subconsciously turned around, and in the water, the blurred figure gradually approached me, as if it was the father of the child.

Why did he jump?

My heart sank, and suddenly I realized something......

However, before my thoughts could be fully formed, the man's form was in the water, gradually turning into a woman. Her face became clearer and clearer, until Mina's face was completely in front of me, and she was still smiling, smiling mischievously, but the more I looked at it, the more annoyed I became.

The next moment, she moved, something on the idol beside her, and then, a huge suction suddenly came from under the alienated child's body!

The boy was sucked into a round hole, followed by me and Mina!

The suction force was simply irresistible, and I felt as if I was in the position of a huge pool drain, and the pressure of all the pool water was concentrated in my body, and I was also pushed into the hole.

There was a chaotic impact, the water around me thinned out, and my body finally hit the ground.

It was pitch black all around, the ground was hard stone, and almost all my internal organs were broken, and with such impact and water pressure before, it was impossible for any normal person to live.

"Damn ......"

"Mina, are you crazy!" I was limp and could only scream hard.

"It's only been a long time since I've seen you, why are you so fierce?" Click! There was a flash of light, and Mina crouched beside me, holding a wooden stick in her hand, the tip glowing, like a torch, but not a torch. She was drenched, her long hair sticking to the water, dripping down my face, and then she reached out a finger and tapped the drops on my face, "Does it hurt?" ”

"I ask you, are you crazy?"

"Hehe, fool." She gestured to my side, "See for yourself." ”

I turned my head, and in the light of the false torch in Mina's hand, I saw a pile of broken parts.

It turns out that the child under the pool is also fake.

"Mina, I'm really angry this time." I looked at her, but my eyes were probably calmer than before.

She propped her chin up, pulled her wet hair behind her ears, and looked at me curiously, "What's wrong with being angry?" Domestic violence? ”

I was able to prop myself up, and the speed at which I healed continued to evolve with each injury.

Mina stood up, took two steps back, and looked at me, "Hey, I'm messing around with you, I'm really angry?" ”

"It's fun." I stood up, moved a little, and walked over to Mina.

She continued to step back, "Hey, don't come near me. ”

I stretched out my waist and touched my feet, completely ignoring what she said, and took her directly to me, and then reached out and hooked her waist, I looked down, she looked up, the tips of each other's noses were almost touched, I looked into her eyes, "Where is the silent night?" ”

"Poof......

"Laughing at what?"

"I thought you were going to kiss me."

"I'm not interested in that at all. Answer my question. ”

"I'm not happy and don't want to say it."

I frowned: "You played me like a grandson, are you still not happy?" ”

"What the hell have you forgotten?" She asked the question she cared about the most.

"What you are asking is interesting, what have you forgotten, how can I remember what I forgot?"

"You don't want me to know." Mina's eyes suddenly became serious.

"Daughter-in-law, let's not mess around, what did I say that I don't want to tell you? Have you seen me? Have you talked to me about this in person? I didn't say anything to you, and you didn't see anything, so you created a lot of trouble for me, and set up the scene three months in advance. I suspect you're crazy. ”

Mina didn't respond immediately, but stared at my eyes for a long time, and suddenly smiled, but this smile was not so friendly: "What kind of person you are, I know better than yourself, you just don't want to tell me, otherwise why did you sneak here here by yourself in the first place?" Have you been hiding anything else from me other than this? No, so you just did it on purpose. If I don't, I'll never know what you're hiding. ”

"I'm not happy when you say that. Do you have little to hide from me? ”

"What do you mean? I said, before in the crypt of the church, my dummy has already told you the story, I am here to get rid of insects, you know, what am I hiding from you? ”

"It's not interesting for you to talk like this, so I'll keep it simple, who is that slender eyed, white and tall man?"

"Dummy!"

"I'll believe what you say is false?"

"You're here to quarrel with me?"

I laughed, "Girl, you forced me to quarrel with you, you went directly to me, and talked about nothing." ”

"Are you stupid for me, and your childish values of justice will allow us to sit down and have a good chat? You're afraid you're going to arrest me, right? ”

"Someone dies because of you, you can't escape the responsibility, you can't avoid what you should face!"

"Look! Sure enough, these lines, so do you know how many people will die if these worms are not removed? ”

We look at each other.

Flashback, back in time, when Mina and I first met.

At that time, I saw a piece of news that a little girl, with a miserable fate, her parents were disabled and seriously ill, and she had two younger brothers, who were oppressed by life, bullied at school, and finally committed suicide. The suicide note was like a sword between the lines, piercing my heart. I was upset, Mina asked me why, and I said because I couldn't help her.

She said that there was nothing to help, and that no one could save all the people in this world who were in suffering. I said I saw it, and I wanted to help, but unfortunately my hand was not long enough to reach it.

She laughed at me and told me that people who try to save everyone often end up killing more.

"I don't want to argue with you about this." I let her go.

She shook her hand, "I'm too lazy to talk to you......"

"You've been to this place, haven't you?" I asked.

Mina shook her head: "I haven't been here, but I've heard that this is a secret room on the Mi family's ancestors, in order to imprison a monster." ”

"Monsters?"

"That thing is called Dream Eater."

"Tell me."

Legend has it that it was an ancient beast that fed on human dreams. At first it was just a nightmare that made people not afraid of the night. However, dreams are a microcosm of human daylight, which contains human desires and hopes, and nightmares, but also ugly fears, which gradually distort the beast. It absorbs full of negative energy, begins to spread the evil thoughts in the nightmare, and kills people and eats meat, becoming a feared beast, people have nightmares because of the fear of dream-eating and unphased, and the nightmare nourishes the dream-eating phaseless.

Later, he was seriously injured by a capable person, sealed the underground palace, and built a secret room to prevent him from escaping, who was the person of the Mi family.

But because the ability to devour nightmares still exists, its energy infects the water of this pool, and as long as it makes a promise to it, and proposes to give up the desires and hopes, the desires and hopes will be swallowed by the dream-eating phases.

"So, what kind of monster are you talking about, and now it's in this secret room?" Under the light of Mina's light source, everything around can be seen clearly, but the space is not large, maybe 200 square meters?

I don't see any strange beasts here.

Mina also looked around, as if looking for something: "Of course it's not directly locked up here, in fact, I'm not familiar with this, I've collected a lot of information, and there is a general direction, you have to go with me and find that strange beast." ”

"And then?" I asked.

"What do you say? Retrieving memories, of course. ”

"How do you get it back, as you said, that thing feeds on desire and hope, and after eating it for nine months, doesn't it?"

"Don't pull!"

I think Mina is a little angry.

"You don't know, do you?" I guess.

But you should guess right.

"Anyway, to find it, I must know what you are hiding from me." Mina's expression was firm, and this matter could not be changed.

"That kid is fine, you won't kill it in the quiet night, and I can't help it if I refuse you now. So let's go, don't make a fuss, I promise that I won't hide anything from you in the future. As for other things, I saw that the site of the egg explosion has reached Vietnam, and I think you should be concerned about that incident as well. I'll go with you. ”

"You know me well? The kid was fine, he was replaced by me as a dummy three months ago. ”

"You see, I know very well." That being said, my heart is also dripping blood, why didn't I think of it, logically speaking, if this trap is set by others, I won't be unaware of it at all. For Mina, I really can't judge objectively with all my heart.

"But that little girl is not necessarily, and, Zole, listen, I know that little girl is the same to you as this forgotten secret." Speaking of this, Mina's voice became unusually gloomy.

In this way, we were silent for a long time, and finally I spoke first: "Then what are you going to do to her?" ”

"Killed."

"If you really want to get rid of the worm, you shouldn't kill her."

"Why?"

"This insect venom is hereditary, you know?"

"Heredity?" Mina's expression was surprised, and it was clear that she really didn't seem to know about it.
