Chapter 023: Nightmare Dreamlust
Ye Tao was like a string that suddenly broke, looking up to the sky and roaring, and the suppressed breath in his heart was instantly released, like a howling wind, sweeping through a whole birch forest, Ye Tao didn't see those dark eyes distorted and changing shapes.
When Ye Tao calmed down, he was already on the noisy street, with blue sky and white clouds floating, the smell of wine in the alleys, and the hawkers shouting.
The streets are very ordinary, green dust and loess, every house has white walls and tiles, and the round house is very special.
"Still in a dream?" Ye Tao asked himself, and couldn't get an answer, so he walked forward without direction, passing by pedestrians on the street, no one stopped for anything, and everyone seemed to be as purposeless as him.
Only the father and son attracted Ye Tao's attention, they came from the opposite side, and the father bowed his head and lovingly wiped the sugar gourd candy cubes on the side of the child's mouth.
The child smiled happily, they were the only people here who made Ye Tao feel alive, but they were also the most uncommon people, the child's pupils were clearly red, which was the color of blood.
The child smiled and turned around, but he looked at Ye Tao, his smile disappeared from his face in an instant, and the child's father saw that the child was unhappy, and immediately took the child's hand and walked quickly past Ye Tao.
The kid kept his eyes on Ye Tao, as if he was glued.
At the moment when the child passed, Ye Tao's heart twitched very suddenly, Ye Tao stroked his heart, and immediately turned around, but the child and his father were gone.
Only the passers-by who stopped and looked at him intently, "No, no, it's not a person!
Ye Tao warned himself in his heart, turned around and ran towards the end of the street, although he didn't know if there was really an end, but there were strange people with red eyes chasing him behind him, strange people with no heartbeat and no breathing, watching their eyes gradually become bloodshot and turn red, and even drip blood.
Ye Tao could take them in hand, but he couldn't make a move, these people all appeared in his childhood, Yue's family, Yue's family, is a member of the Yue clan.
Ye Tao's thoughts were confused, he just wanted to run, and only by running did not have so many frightened pictures in his mind.
After running for a long time, Ye Tao was so tired that he could hear his rapid breathing, a hidden vermilion lacquer gate in front of him, and the sound of footsteps under his feet, Ye Tao struggled to run behind the vermilion lacquer gate and slammed the door shut.
The strange men who were chasing him were slamming the door, climbing, or banging on it.
Yueshi, the memory he has lost, why does it still appear in his dream?? Ye Tao sat on the ground paralyzed, no one had ever seen such a decadent and powerless Ye Tao, and he had never seen it himself.
Ye Tao leaned against the door, looking at the clouds and mist in front of him, and the road ahead was still vast. The silence was terrifying.
After a while, Ye Tao cheered up and walked towards the clouds, there will always be an end, and he will always wake up. Ye Tao kept giving himself a little confidence to go on.
In the clouds, the vision was blurred for a while, and I don't know how long I walked, the front was transparent and bright, Ye Tao was happy in his heart, and trotted over, and the ground under his feet became ice, a thin layer of ice.
Ye Tao was overjoyed, and the cold and piercing feeling under his feet had stopped him from moving forward, only to find that it was a layer of bright ice, which clearly reflected his figure.
Ye Tao's thoughts paused for a moment, this dream was both real and illusory, so real that his feet were already cold and painful, but he was afraid that he was going to freeze.
The original cloudy environment suddenly darkened, and the dark clouds above his head pressed down layer by layer, not giving people a little room to breathe, and I don't know if it was an illusion or reality, a huge hand was slowly stretched out in the dark clouds, trying to pinch him like a person pinching an ant.
Seeing that this hand stretched out from the top of his head, as if to catch him, Ye Tao was a little angry, pulled out the Qingling sword and waved his hand, and the cyan sword qi cut the hand in half, turned into powder and disappeared.
The night was broken, the clouds were gone, and the clouds were gone. The vision is getting clearer and clearer, a vast barren land, and two middle-aged couples walked opposite, they were dressed in brocade and jade robes, talking and laughing.
Ye Tao was stunned in place, his eyes moistened in an instant, and his hand involuntarily clenched the Qingling Sword.
His lips trembled but he couldn't speak, it was the person he wanted to see but couldn't meet, and now it appeared in front of him! Ye Tao cried with joy, and it seemed to use all his strength to say two words for a long time, but it was so subtle that only he could hear it-"Mother!!"
The couple was also stunned for a moment when they saw Ye Tao, and the next moment the woman smiled like a flower, beckoned to Ye Tao, and called out gently and lovingly: "Tao'er, come, come to my mother's side, my mother misses you!"
Ye Tao thought, his eyes were wet when he saw the woman, and now that the woman called him over, he ran over without any precautions, he didn't want anything else, he just wanted to hug his mother.
However, it made him see a strange smile on the corner of her mouth, Ye Tao suddenly woke up, stopped in place, and thought of the fact, she no longer exists, this person is not her.
Ye Tao stepped back step by step, shook his head and said bitterly: "You are not her, she is gone, she will not come back!"
He turned to leave, but she laughed wildly and wantonly, stretched out her hand and easily held up the land, Ye Tao only felt a tremor in the ground, and saw the woman's figure like a high mountain, smiling unscrupulously behind him.
Yin Qi said: "Tao'er, you are my child, how can I be willing to let go of you, you will never escape from the palm of my hand, forever and forever ......"
The woman's voice was like a ghostly voice, lingering in Ye Tao's ears all the time. Ye Tao covered his ears in pain and shook his head to resist strongly, but it had no effect, and the urging voice was still haunting him in his ears.
Ye Tao was angry like a tiger, the true qi all over his body was full of him, the woman seemed to see the true qi surrounded by Ye Tao, there was a trace of surprise, and the next moment Ye Tao pulled out the sword, and the sword body roared and cut through layers of obstacles, stabbing towards the woman, like a broken bamboo. Before the woman could avoid it, the Qingling Sword had already passed through her heart, and the woman screamed miserably, and her figure gradually shrank to nothing.
Ye Tao was released, but he felt tired! Should he go back or go forward? He didn't know how to make a decision, and he was facing a middle-aged man who was approaching, but at this time he was more than twenty years old, with white hair flying gently, but he was wearing a black dress, not a brocade and jade robe, but a mourning dress.
Ye Tao walked towards him calmly, and the man said quietly: "Why hurt her, you should believe her!
"I don't know her, and I don't need her" Ye Tao said coldly, walking in front of the man, the man reached out and wanted to grab Ye Tao, but Ye Tao passed through the man's arm, the man's hand paused in the air, Ye Tao was also stunned for a moment, and walked forward again, the man was stunned, hiding his face and crying, Ye Tao looked back and saw the man squatting on the ground and whimpering, crying very sadly.
Ye Tao thought about whether to comfort him, but the man's figure shrank into a small black dot, until it was gone, and Ye Tao's outstretched hand was in the air.
He should also go back, if it was in a dream, maybe he could go back if he wanted to go back to Mingyue Tower, Ye Tao thought that he really went back to Mingyue Tower.
But the lights were dim, he pushed the door in, the door squeaked, as if it had not been opened for many years, it was a little bulky, the small yard was overgrown, Ye Tao entered the yard, and the door behind him closed with a "bang".
The peach blossom shopkeeper came from the corridor, and saw that she looked indifferent, ragged, unkempt, and looked like a beggar, and asked Ye Tao faintly: "Why do you want to come back? Since you are gone, you shouldn't come back, you have seen this scene? The more the peach blossom shopkeeper spoke, the more poignant his voice became, like a ghost seeking revenge.
"This ...... Why is this happening?" Ye Tao spoke incoherently, feeling guilty in his heart, and he didn't dare to look at the peach blossom shopkeeper.
"You're gone, your junior brother is gone, Zhao Yi is looking for you, she can't find you, and she's gone, everything here has changed, people are dying, and I'm the only one left. The shopkeeper of Peach Blossom stated sadly, she was already a little crazy, looked up at the sky and said dementia, and then stared at Ye Tao angrily and asked, "Why do you want to leave?"
"I don't know" Ye Tao regressed in fright, even if the peach blossom shopkeeper was only on the corridor, he was still inexplicably afraid of her.
"You're going to find Zhao Yi, yes, you should go to her, she's looking for you, she's looking for you, she's waiting for you to come back to her. The shopkeeper of Peach Blossom said and went back down the corridor, looking at her back, describing her as thin and withered, like a puppet dressed in coarse cloth.
Ye Tao came to Zhao Yi's room, and saw that the room was transparent and bright, and some of the utensils were still so clean and bright, which was very different from the outer courtyard, there was a white figure curled up in the corner, black hair was scattered behind his back, and some fell to the ground, the woman sobbed, and her shoulders trembled slightly.
Ye Tao walked over, heard the footsteps, the woman turned around, her face was pale, there was no blood, the tears on her face had not dried, and she looked at Ye Tao stupidly, this was a strange face.
Ye Tao asked her, "Why is the girl crying here, is there anything you need to help with?"
The woman burst into tears when she heard this, but she looked chilling, "You take me out of this room, I can't get out." ”
Ye Tao agreed without asking the reason, the woman stood up, the black hair grew like a new sprout, she stood up, the black hair still landed on the ground, the woman was weird, Ye Tao couldn't help but feel numb in the scalp, and shivered in his heart.
The woman stretched out her hand, with a grateful smile on her face, Ye Tao couldn't bear to regret it, but seeing that her outstretched hand was stiff and thin, her clothes seemed to be empty, and she kept floating.
Ye Tao found a piece of cloth at random to wrap her hand, and led her out of the room, the woman was always behind Ye Tao, he only felt that his entire back was cold and bone-chilling, and his hands were even stiffer, and when he went out of the door, Ye Tao let go of the woman, her face became ruddy, but he was out of breath.
"Girl, you're out of the room, you can leave!"
"But I don't know where to go!"
Ye Tao was startled, only to find that the surroundings were shrouded in terrifying white mist again. When he looked at the woman again, her face was ruddy, and a smile was on her face, and Ye Tao noticed something. said: "You can go anywhere you want, just don't follow me"
He turned around and fled, not caring if she followed, and after a long time, Ye Tao couldn't get out of this place. He jerked his head back, and the woman followed behind him with a smile.
Jiao said in a coquettish voice: "Aren't you leaving?" Ye Tao was unable to go any further, feeling helpless at the woman, "Why do you still follow me?"
"Because you saved me, I am full of strength by your side, so I am reluctant to leave you, and I will not let you leave my sight. ”
Ye Tao listened to his legs and had a nightmare......
"What the hell are you?" Ye Tao roared, and the woman sneered: "How can you not know who I am?
The woman's smile had a kind of horror that devoured people's hearts, so that Ye Tao didn't dare to look at it, she continued to approach Ye Tao, Ye Tao retreated again and again,
"I am the last memory you want to remember in the depths of your memory, you are afraid of memories," the woman proudly forced Ye Tao, Ye Tao's breathing became short, and she was on the verge of collapse, the happier she was.
"But I'm not afraid of you" Ye Tao finally raised his eyes and met the woman's eyes, gritted his teeth and said a word.
The woman smiled slightly, pointed to the sky, and reveled: "Look at this sky! Isn't it beautiful!"
When Ye Tao heard this, he looked at it, and a red sky stained the sky, like blood melting in water, soaking little by little. Ye Tao looked at her again, it was clearly a man's face, and suddenly it changed into something else, what remained unchanged was her wide white robe, and the last time she changed her face, she became the most vague appearance in the depths of Ye Tao's memory, her mother's appearance when she was the most beautiful, the most beautiful saintess princess of the Yue family, and the saintess princess who fled to the Central Plains for a man.
Ye Tao had collapsed, he was defenseless, tears were rolling in his eyes, and the red sky was stealing his memories little by little.
The people in front of him looked at his memory fragments happily, the wooden horse when he was a child, the kind face of the teacher, the smiling face of his mother, the locust tree in his hometown, and the small fish in the stream...... A smile appeared on Ye Tao's face, but it turned into pain in an instant.
The mother's haggard face begged the man not to leave......
The mother cried and begged him, "Don't hate your father, don't hate him......"
"Tao'er, you have to live, no matter what, you have to live well for your mother, mother--gone," when he was three years old, his mother took him to the Central Plains secretly to look for his father, he hadn't seen his father, but his mother told him: "Your father has a happy family, we won't bother him"
Within a few days, his mother died of illness on the frozen lake, begging him not to hate his father.
Ye Tao's head was groggy, and a voice kept lingering in his ears, repeating a sentence constantly, "You're tired!
Her voice was too gentle, and Ye Tao slowly closed her eyes in a daze...... There were tears in the corners of his eyes......
