Xi'an is indeed an ancient capital full of cultural heritage, and I have been deeply shocked in less than a month, and there are always some unbelievable things happening around me, and these unforgettable real experiences always become more bizarre and mysterious in my dreams.

To this day, I still vividly remember the dream I had on the first day I came to Xi'an, that absurd and bizarre dream.

Before I talk about my dreams, I would like to briefly describe some seemingly ordinary things that I experienced when I first got off the train, because they are all inextricably linked to my dreams.

After getting off the train, it was still early, only more than nine o'clock in the morning, so I walked along the sidewalk at the foot of the ancient city wall. Second, I also plan to find a hotel near the ancient city wall, so that I can rent a house nearby in the future.

When I was almost lost track of time by the vicissitudes of the ancient city walls, I found myself at a city gate with three ancient fonts that had been blurred and broken—the Yuxiang Gate.

I saw that it was almost twelve o'clock at noon, but I didn't expect to walk around for more than two hours, and after touching my gurgling belly, I decided to pay tribute to the Five Organs Temple first.

When I looked around, there was a mango hotel just across the street from the city gate, and I was overjoyed, it was a very clean-looking hotel, and it was across the street from the city wall, and to be honest, I was very satisfied.

When I walked to the opposite side of the hotel and waited for the traffic light, I accidentally saw a very ancient house at the foot of the city wall behind me, with gray walls and green tiles, the red door was closed, and there was a rusty iron fence outside.

Admiring the tranquility and tranquility of this house, I suddenly longed to rent a house in it, so that I could feel the desolation of the ancient city wall up close every day, which must have inspired me to write a novel.

However, I also understood that such a house belonged to the private property of the wealthy, and was generally not rented out, and besides, the yard looked full of fallen leaves, unusually bleak, and lifeless, as if no one had lived in it for a long, long time, so I forced myself to quickly dispel this idea.

Just as I turned my head to see if the light was green, I saw a very cute little girl looking at me from the railing out of the corner of my eye.

But before I could see the little girl clearly, I was stopped by a passer-by, who turned out to be a foreigner, who wanted to ask me how to get to the train station. After all, I have just arrived in Xi'an, and the road is not familiar, so it is very difficult to tell him, and when I finally send him away, when I look back, I find that the house is still empty, and the little girl is no longer there.

It was already green light, so I hurried across the road with the pedestrians towards the Mango Hotel. Along the way, I also felt ridiculous, how could there be a little girl who looked three or four years old in such a desolate house, I must have seen it wrong.

Entered the hotel gate, quickly checked in at the front desk, put the luggage in the room, I came to the hotel restaurant to eat a little bit, I plan to go back to the room for a while, wait up and then go out to go around, by the way in the neighborhood to see if there is a suitable rental room.

When I passed by the front desk, on a whim, I asked the front desk attendant about the house across the road. The waiter patiently told me that almost every day there were customers who would inquire about the house, but no one could actually rent it.

Originally, I thought that there was no one living in the house, and the landlord was reluctant to rent it, or the rent was ridiculously high, so no one could successfully rent the house. But the waiter's answer surprised me very much, that is, the house is inhabited, and the landlord is a lonely old lady, who is not only willing to rent, but also does not charge any rent, and the only requirement is to answer her three questions correctly.

The first question is where is her granddaughter? Usually no one can answer the first question, so no one has been able to get the right to rent the house so far. As for the latter two questions, no one knows.

After listening to the waiter's narration, I smiled bitterly, and I had no intention of continuing to inquire, so many people couldn't answer, let alone me, a foreigner who came to Xi'an for the first time.

After returning to the room, I felt exhausted, after all, I had walked along the ancient city wall for more than two hours, and there was no rest on the train, so I was full of food and drink, and took a hot bath, except for wanting to sleep well, I didn't want to move anymore.

Not long after I closed my eyes, I fell into a deep sleep.

In a trance, I felt like I was actually floating out of bed, and just when I thought I was going to hit the ceiling, I unexpectedly found myself easily penetrating the ceiling, flying above the roof of the hotel after passing through every room upstairs.

In my subconscious, I knew that I was supposed to be sleeping in a hotel, but why I floated outside for some reason, or was I floating in the air, it was obviously a dream.

However, I always feel that this dream is different from the past, but it is difficult for me to describe the specific difference, it seems to be like a dream and not a dream, both illusory and a hint of reality.

In the dark, I still felt that a voice was calling me, I roughly discerned the direction, and found that it was actually the direction of the train station, so I took a light step and floated in the direction of the train station.

I don't know how long it took to float, I finally came to the city gate of the train station, to my surprise, I found that the train station was empty, it stands to reason that the train station is a lively place 24 hours a day, how can it be so deserted?

I gradually lowered my altitude and floated aimlessly in the air for a while, and found that it was not only the train station, but also the entire city of Xi'an. Curious, I landed on top of an ancient city wall, which felt familiar to me, because when I got off the train a few hours earlier, I had started my walk along the sidewalk at the foot of this ancient city wall, and walked for more than two hours before reaching the gate of Yuxiang Gate.

At that time, I was still thinking that when the place to live in Xi'an in the future was arranged and the work was confirmed, I would come out and have a good time, and the first place I wanted to play was naturally to walk on the ancient city wall.

Although I couldn't see what it looked like at the foot of the city wall at the time, I had the urge to walk up and walk around when I saw the figure of a tourist walking by on it, and I even had the illusion that there was a faint voice calling to me, but I soon convinced myself that I must be hallucinating, or that I should have another good time when everything was settled.

It's just that I didn't expect that at this moment, on the first day of my arrival in Xi'an, I would be able to come to the city wall as I wished, just dreaming in the hotel. Even though it was an illusory dream, even though there was no one around, and even a trace of indescribable depression and terror enveloped my heart, I was still very excited, let go of my feet and ran on the city wall.

The walls are so wide that even a bus is no problem. Just as I was running happily, a little girl appeared not far in front of me.

The little girl mischievously turned her head and waved her little hand to me, and after not knowing what to say, she squatted down with her back to me and didn't know what to do on the ground. When I saw the little girl's naughty appearance before, I was shocked, wasn't she the little girl I saw in the railing of the house when I was waiting for the traffic light!

I hesitated slightly, and decided to catch up and ask what was going on, anyway, it was also in a dream, no matter whether she was a human or a ghost, no matter how dangerous it was, at most she would wake up scared, and her life would not be in danger.

When I finally rushed behind the little girl, quietly squatted down to grab her, she suddenly dissipated, I quickly turned my head to look around, and found that she was soon showing up five meters behind me, and shouted to me with a grimace: "Uncle, can you pick up that thing on the ground and come and play hide and seek with me?" ”

The moment I heard her voice clearly, I felt so familiar, and suddenly remembered that when I had just gotten off the train and walked through this neighborhood at the foot of the city wall, I vaguely heard this voice calling to me, as if it was asking me to go up the city wall to play, but at the time I thought it was an illusion in my ears, and I didn't take it seriously.

"Good! Uncle plays with you, if your uncle finds you, you have to answer a few questions from your uncle, is it okay? I thought about it and said in a voice that sounded as gentle as I could.

"yes, great, finally someone to play with me, okay uncle, as long as you can find me, I will grant your request, then you count to ten, don't forget to pick up something on the ground, and come to me." Hee-hee. The little girl said as she jumped and clapped her little hands, and then slowly disappeared again.

I wanted to close my eyes and count to ten, but when I thought about it, she could disappear into oblivion, and it didn't make much sense for me to close my eyes. Then he counted out loud with concentration: "One, two......"

When I counted to ten, I looked around, and suddenly felt very confused, this little girl is too mysterious, and she can be invisible, and I am uncertain where to find her.

I tried to shout a few times, intending to trick her into talking to me again, and I could follow the sound to find her, but she disappeared as if she had disappeared.

In desperation, I had to crouch down first to see what the little girl asked me to pick up. I looked at the ground carefully and looked at it for a long time, but I didn't find anything, so what did she mean by repeatedly insisting that I should pick it up?

Just as I was about to give up looking, I felt a glimmer of light flash through the crack in the bricks. My curiosity was piqued, and I began to try to clean the brick with my fingernails, and soon I pulled out something shaped like a ring from the brick crevice.

When I held it in my hand and saw its appearance and texture clearly, I was shocked that it was actually priceless mutton fat white jade. When I put the ring on my ring finger, I felt as if it was quietly sucking my soul, and I couldn't help but get to my knees with a tingling pain.
