Chapter 6: Dawn Dawn Darkness is coming
"The last dish, fried lamb with green onions." Xiao Xiao smiled and brought the last dish to the table. "Crayfish, braised beef, white jade chicken, kung pao chicken, eight treasure duck." Looking at the table full of delicacies, I couldn't help but kiss my wife's gentle face.
"It's true, it's all old husbands and wives, why are they still the same as children." Little blushed and hung the cooking apron on the wall. Then he sat across from me and presented me a bowl of rice from the rice cooker.
"It's not that my wife is too capable, so I've always been in love back then." I said as I took a large chicken leg and put it in a small bowl. Looking at the little cheeks, I unconsciously started to be stunned. Although I don't have the face of a jade tree in the wind, nor do I have the banknotes that can clog the rivers, and I don't have the status of ten thousand people. But God still married me the most beautiful and kindest girl in the world. I don't want to pursue any grand causes, I just want to be a qualified husband, and the sweet and happy life makes me worry about diabetes every day.
Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and my wife and I looked at each other in confusion. Today is our 666th wedding anniversary, and my wife and I plan to spend an unforgettable time tonight. All the invitations of friends and relatives were declined, and it was already half past seven in the evening, who would be here?
Confused, I got up and walked to the hallway, but hesitated to open the door.
"Xiaoxiao, can you take out your phone and prepare to call the police?" As I was about to open the door, I suddenly turned to my wife and said.
"What's wrong, Yaxin?" The wife asked with concern.
"I don't know, but I have a bad premonition."
"It's not going to be a burglary, our security here is pretty good."
"Also, because no one has committed crimes all year round, the prison is about to be demolished to build an amusement park." I opened the door slowly, but for some reason I was so nervous, as if it was a ghost knocking on the door.
When I opened the door, I was horrified by what I saw, and I sat on the ground and took several steps back.
"Why are you so scared, I'm not a female ghost." The people outside said and walked into the house. As I looked at the man, I heard the sound of the bowl falling to the ground and shattering, and the air froze for a moment.
"You don't remember anything when you see me." The girl said with a blank face, and at the same time her face showed a kind of fatigue, as if she had not closed her eyes for three days and three nights.
I looked at the girl carefully, and then at my wife. The faces of the two men were identical, but the girl by the door had shorter hair than my wife, and looked closer to my wife's twenty-year-old.
"Who are you?" I didn't answer the question.
"Hua Xiaoxiao, your wife." The girl said, with a hint of disappointment on her face. "Looks like you still don't know anything."
"Haha, I didn't expect to be younger in the future. Did you cross over? The future me. The wife asked the girl with a smile.
"Well, sort of." The girl walked over to my wife in a calm voice.
"Really." The wife jumped up happily and hugged the girl in front of her who was almost exactly like her. Excitedly said, "Then the future me, can you tell me how many children I will have with Yaxin in the future." One or two, if it's three, I'll probably have a bit of a headache. But if it's all girls, I'm okay with that. Yaxin and I both want girls, after all..."Before his wife could finish speaking, a sharp dagger stimulated her white shirt. Blood flowed down from the dagger and dripped onto the floor like thin black snakes.
"Tiny." I yelled and kicked the girl away, holding my wife.
She blinked, like a smile, but failed. She hung her head, closed her eyes, and made no sound.
"Ahh I yelled nervously and turned to look at the murderer, but who was she, what was the reason, what was the reason for it, and what did she want to do? I just want to send her to my wife to apologize now.
"Listen to me, it's just your dream, everything is just your imagination, you have to accept the fact that Xiaoxiao is dead and return to reality."
"Hahaha." I laughed wildly, "You think you can escape the punishment of the law by pretending to be a mental patient, it's useless, go and repent with God." I said as I picked up the fruit knife on the table and stabbed the girl in the stomach. She didn't struggle, she didn't try to pull out the knife, she just lay quietly on the ground, and stopped breathing. After confirming that the girl was out of gas, I opened the valve on the gas stove and lay on the bed holding my wife's body. Without her, my life would not have been meaningful, and instead of suffering countless days, it would be better to meet my wife in heaven sooner, so I closed my eyes and waited for the moment when we would meet again in heaven.
I don't know how long it took for me to open my eyes again. But the strange thing is that I am not lying in heaven, but in my own bed.
"Yaxin, the sun is all on your ass, why haven't you gotten up yet?" A familiar voice sounded, and then the familiar figure opened the curtain for me. Rays of golden light shone on her face, and her smile was like that of an angel.
"Tiny." I couldn't believe it was calling softly.
"How pale are you, you're having nightmares." The little novel sat down on the edge of my bed.
I hugged her at once, and the warmth of that moment let me know that she was real and not my dream. So I hugged it tighter.
"Wait a minute, what's wrong with you. Even if you want to do that, you'll have to wait until the evening. ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I want to hug you all of a sudden." I said and let go of the little one.
A little smile looked at me and reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of my eyes. "Yaxin, did you dream that something happened to me?"
"No, I'm not idle to dream like that." I forced a smile.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, I'll always be by your side."
"Uh-huh." I nodded effortlessly.
After breakfast with my wife, I was ready to leave for work. My wife told me to come back early, today is our 666th wedding anniversary, and she will prepare a lot of good dishes to celebrate this day.
Looking at my wife's smile, my heart seemed to be weighed down by a stone. When I walked to a lottery station while at work, I suddenly remembered something. When I passed by this intersection yesterday, I seemed to hear that the first prize number was 1789. Sure enough, the lottery station announced that the information was really 1789, which unconsciously made my heart tremble.
When I walked into the office and sat in the office. The manager pulled out a bunch of financial audit forms and sat down in front of me.
"Xiaohua, you can check the information on this in a moment. I don't know if that fool will miscalculate, these bills don't match the total bill, there must be a problem with one bill. The manager turned around.
"Manager, yes there is a problem with bills 276 and 387. It may be that a notebook has confused the contents of the two bills. I immediately stood up and reported.
"Hey, don't guess, give me a down-to-earth job, okay." The manager looked back at me impatiently.
"Trust me yes, if I'm wrong, I'm willing to be punished in any way." I said solemnly.
The manager took the bill, turned his back to him and sneered, "Prepare to pack up your things, go to the finance office in the afternoon to settle your salary, the company doesn't need blind and arrogant young people." ”
After listening to the manager, I sat down. I don't know why, but I always feel a little uneasy in my heart. However, I sat in the office for a day and did not receive a notice from the company to let me go to the finance office. Although it is fortunate that I was not fired by the company, my heart has become more uneasy because of this.
After returning home in the evening, his wife happily served crayfish, braised beef, white jade chicken, kung pao chicken, fried lamb with green onions, and eight-treasure duck.
"It's ready." My wife clapped her hands and looked at me. "What's the matter, Yaxin, you don't seem to be very happy, did you encounter anything sad today?"
"No, no, maybe it's my hallucination." I giggled.
Just then, the doorbell rang. When I looked at my watch, it was exactly half past seven in the evening. I swallowed and swallowed the spit, enduring the sound like a ghost bell.
"Who are you?" The wife asked out loud. But no one answered, but the doorbell kept ringing. "It's strange, it's so late, and someone is still coming to our house, who could it be?" The wife got up to open the door with a mumble to herself.
"Wait a minute." I stood up and grabbed my wife's arm.
"What's wrong, Yaxin? And your face doesn't seem to be good. ”
"I'm fine, but you go find a rope first, and if it's a girl who looks exactly like you when she comes in, don't believe whatever she says."
"What are you talking about, what a girl who looks exactly like me. And your face is so terrible, have you provoked people in society? ”
"I'll explain it to you later, believe me, it's all for your good." I yelled, I wonder if anyone outside would hear it, and changed my strategy.
"Okay. I'm going to look for the rope. The wife nodded.
Leaning against the wall, rag in hand, I cautiously approached the entrance. I quickly opened the door, and sure enough, it was still the girl who looked exactly like my wife yesterday. Without saying a word, I threw her into the house, pressed her arms against her and pressed her to the ground, and shoved the rag into her mouth.
"Tiny, give me the rope." I shouted. And the wife stood dumbfounded at this time, at a loss.
"Tie her up, or we'll all die." I shouted hysterically, but the girl didn't resist as I thought, she just turned her head and smiled at me. Immediately after, I heard the stopwatch countdown.
"Run." I suddenly realized something, turned my head and yelled at my wife, and then pounced on the girl and pressed her body, but it was too late. There was a flash of fire, and I just felt myself soaring into the air.
I snapped my eyes open and heard a familiar voice again. "Yaxin, the sun is all on your ass, why haven't you gotten up yet?" The curtain was opened.
"Damn." I got up and punched the quilt.
"What's wrong with you? Isn't it a nightmare? Little smiled and sat by my boat. Seeing that the angel in front of me had been killed twice in front of my eyes, my heart ached like a knife.
"Xiaoxiao, let's go on a tour."
"Why did you suddenly think of traveling?"
"Because I want to travel, by the way, let's go to Los Angeles. That's right, go to foreign countries to broaden your horizons. I said and immediately got up and started getting dressed.
"Wait a minute, aren't you working today? Besides, I don't have that much money at home, and I'm not ready to travel abroad, so why is it so sudden? ”
"Because, today is our 666th wedding anniversary, and we are traveling this time to celebrate." As I spoke, I immediately rushed out of the room, came to a lottery station, bought a 1789 lottery ticket, and won the jackpot of 10 million directly. I spent the morning busy with the award ceremony, and then returned home in the afternoon. Pull Xiaoxiao to the airport and take a plane to Los Angeles.
"I didn't expect that Los Angeles at four o'clock in the morning was quite beautiful." My wife got off the plane and looked left and right, and at the same time looked at me with a dissatisfied expression, "Yaxin, I really don't understand why you suddenly came to travel?" Next time, you can't be as headstrong as a child. ”
I tugged at my suitcase, urging Xiao Xiao to keep up with me. This time Xiao Xiao was finally fine, and this time we came from one end of the Eastern Hemisphere to the Western Hemisphere, and I wanted to see how she was catching up.
However, in the early hours of the morning when the stars are gone, the sun is about to rise. Xiaoxiao and I still saw that familiar figure on a deserted street.
"Hahahaha!" I couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh. "I've fled to the other hemisphere, why are you still chasing after me."
"You know for yourself, it's your dream, and wherever you flee, I can find you effortlessly." The girl said calmly.
"Dreams?" The wife looked at the girl in front of her and asked in surprise.
"Don't you understand? Past me. Didn't you notice that you came to another country without even getting your passport, and didn't you realize that the buildings and environment around Los Angeles are similar to those in Pennsylvania? That's because dreams can't appear things that the owner of the dream doesn't know. The so-called Los Angeles is just the words Binzhou Airport replaced by the words Los Angeles Airport. ”
"How so?" My wife looked at me in disbelief.
"It's like, how could this be a dream." I said as I stood in front of my wife. "The psychiatric hospital turns right along this street and goes straight, go back quickly."
"Hua Yaxin, you already know that this is a dream, what are you still nostalgic for?"
"Okay, okay. I admit it's a dream, so what do you want, is it interesting for you to disturb other people's dreams? If I wake up, I'll greet your mother first. I yelled like a tiger, "If you know each other, don't appear in my dreams again, or I will kill you once I see you." ”
"Bad, bad, Hua Yaxin, you're so bad, why don't you wake up when you know it's a dream?" The girl blushed and panted at me.
"What am I doing when I wake up?" I sneered. "What do you say I'm going to do when I wake up? Xiaoxiao is gone, what am I doing when I wake up, hugging her black and white photos and crying every day? There's nothing left in that world to be nostalgic for, isn't it good for me to be happy here with the people I like? ”
"What a joke. It's all fake, you're just reincarnating in your own memories all the time. There is no future, there is no change, you just keep repeating your past like a robot, do you think you will really be happy in this way? ”
"Enough, I'm happier now than I ever was." As I spoke, I took out a dagger from the outer layer of the trolley case and stabbed it directly into the girl's weak breast, spilling blood on my clothes.
"Wake up, please." The girl shed a tear and fell to the ground, and I kicked her body away. Walking up to his wife, with a smile, he waved his hands, "Okay, Xiaoxiao, the accident is over, and we can continue our trip." ”
But when I pulled the trolley case, I found that Xiaoxiao didn't follow. She stood there in a daze, a tear sliding down her cheek, and the tear fell to the ground in the brilliant moonlight like a meteor across the night sky.
"Well, I'll admit, it's just a dream of mine." I said to myself and kicked the trolley case open. "But what? Little. The world is real, and you don't come out of nowhere, it's from my best memories. You don't have to be afraid of anything in this world, from now on I am the boss of this world. Today we will live in a mansion of 1,000 square meters, and I will buy you the largest diamond in the world and the most expensive clothes for you. You don't have to work hard to do housework in the future, I hired a hundred Japanese maids to work in our house, so don't be sad. ”
Xiaoxiao shook his head after listening to my words, "Yaxin, have you ever seen a cactus bloom?" ”
I shook my head, "Are the flowers pretty?" More expensive than diamonds, and pretty? ”
"Well, it's more beautiful than a diamond. It's really incredible, in the desert, in the scorching heat of the wind and sand, so ugly green plants can see the flowers that are praised by the world. Yaxin, the world may not be as good as we imagined, or it may be cruel. But I think as long as we work hard to face it, the ending must be happy. ”
"I won't go back, I have everything here, I can't get everything here even if I struggle for 10,000 years in reality, besides, I come back to reality, and I can't see you anymore when I open my eyes every day." As I spoke, my vision blurred for a moment.
"How come, everything here is just from Yaxin's memories, there will be no things that Yaxin doesn't know, and there will be no new things. The times are always getting better and better, and there must be a lot of beauty waiting for Yaxin to discover and wait for Yaxin to explore. ”
"But..."
"Yaxin, this is a dream, right? If you miss me, you can just sleep and dream in the future. When you meet me, tell me about the cactus blossoming and the wonderful and new things I don't know. ”
I didn't know what to say for a while, and stood stunned for a while. The last rays of the moon before dawn shone on her little pale face, and she smiled kindly and kindly like a virgin. "Yaxin, you can't always run away from the tragic end of everything, because then you will also miss the beautiful beginning of everything."
"Tiny." I rushed over and hugged Xiaoxiao. She also hugged me tightly and whispered, "Don't worry, I will always be by your side." Good bye! ”
The world suddenly turned white, and I stretched out my hands upward, and darkness descended.
"It's unbelievable that you woke up." I opened my eyes and found myself lying in a hospital bed with a doctor in a white coat with eyes sitting next to me.
"I also think it's incredible, how long have I been asleep to be able to live in an invisible world?"
"I've been sleeping for three whole years."
"Did you wake me up? However, I remember that you don't seem to be an illusionist, but a summoner. Call..... What is it called to come here. ”
"A-level heavenly punisher, there is no moon in the water palace."
"Yes, yes, I just remembered the name. You are the elder brother of Mizumiya Aye, that little girl's cuteness is unforgettable at a glance. How has she been doing? ”
"Thank you for your compliment." Mizumiya Mutsuki smiled. "My sister is doing well now. But what is troublesome is her dream of becoming a heavenly punisher. ”
"Even breaking her leg won't allow her to achieve this dream." I added right away.
"I'll keep it in mind." Wuyue smiled bitterly. "But it is not the one who saved you, but someone else. Even though an illusionist can enter someone else's dream through a device, you're the only one who has successfully awakened Sleeping Beauty. ”
Sleeping Beauty is the name given to some illusionists who practice illusions not to make a difference in the future. It's just that you can create and control your own dreams, let yourself meet important people in memories, and escape from reality. In a traffic accident, my lover, Hua Xiaoxiao, died on the spot. Unable to stand the blow, I practiced illusion hard and finally sealed myself in my dreams. Just like a vegetative person, Sleeping Beauty does not react to the outside world in any way, and will only live in her dreams until her physical death is carried out. Although some people have tried to sneak into the dream to awaken Sleeping Beauty, they have all failed. After all, the reality in the dream is beyond imagination, and you have the same feeling in the dream as in reality. Moreover, even if you are reminded to dream by an outsider, when the dreamer is aware of death and a mental breakdown, the dreamer's memory will be reset to the memory before the outsider dives into the dream. As a result, the dreamer is not able to realize that he is dreaming at all, and even if he does, no one wants to return from the wonderful paradise to the world of suffering.
"Then how did I wake up, and who woke me up?" I looked at Wuyue with a little interest.
Wuyue's face suddenly became serious, "Originally, you shouldn't have known, but I really can't bear to see that person who obviously paid a huge sacrifice and you don't remember." The person who saved you was Hua Xiaoxiao. ”
"I don't like jokes."
"It's true, because I want to participate in the Asura Declaration Project, Hua Xiaoxiao's existence is only known to the Heavenly Punishment above the S level, and I also know about it through my own measurement formula. That traffic accident was designed to cover up the fact that Hua Xiaoxiao was alive and kidnap Hua Xiaoxiao. Over the years, the organization has been hiding from you and using you as a handle to threaten Hua Xiaoxiao. However, when Hua Xiaoxiao was about to carry out the Asura Declaration plan, she forced her to die in exchange for the opportunity to save you personally. The way to save you is also very primitive, which is to keep sneaking into your dreams and make you aware that you are dreaming. Of course, Sleeping Beauty resets her memories. But once a memory is created, it doesn't disappear. It's just that it has changed from a deep mark to a shallow mark that cannot be separated. And she decided to keep trying to make you aware that you were dreaming, to deepen the mark, and one day the iron rod will be sharpened into a needle, and you will notice the existence of this shallow mark. Even though the time spent in deep dreams is a hundred and twenty times faster than in real life, it feels like the time elapsed is the same. And she spent sixteen thousand three hundred and twenty-five identical days for you, and at the same time was killed by you sixteen thousand three hundred and fifty-two times, and experienced sixteen thousand three hundred and fifty-two deaths. She won't leave you until she's sure you're awake, and she doesn't want you to know she's alive. Because it is impossible for you to be together anymore, she hopes that you can forget about her, find a lover again, and live happily ever after. ”
After listening to Wuyue's words, my mind went blank, and nothing could shock me anymore. Even though I knew that if Hua Xiaoxiao lived, I would definitely wake up me as a sleeping beauty, I couldn't help but shed tears.
After a while, I struggled to control my emotions and asked, "Where is Hua Xiaoxiao now, and what is the Asura Declaration Project?" ”
"I can't tell you what the plan is, but you can't see her now."
"Just tell me where she is. Even if I only knew the general location of the northern hemisphere or the southern hemisphere, I would spend the rest of my life trying to find her. ”
"Unfortunately, even if you search the ends of the earth, you can't find her. Because she's in space, in the Holy Alliance's space station. ”
"How so?" I felt like my eyes were dark.
"Of course, it's not impossible, if you can become an S-class Heavenly Punisher, you will have a chance to meet her." Wuyue's words changed, "However, it's better not for you to participate." ”
Originally, I was worried that no S-rank Heavenly Punisher would apply for the Chosen Battle, so I couldn't participate. And from the tone of the moonless I felt that there was still hope. "So, there are S-class Heavenly Punishers who have applied for the Battle of the Chosen One."
"There is an S-class Heavenly Punisher who applied to launch the Chosen War in order to become the Seven Original Sins. You can't beat her, though. ”
"Who is it?" I asked eagerly.
"Golden Double Moon."
"Is it the Heavenly Punisher who has two eyes?" I couldn't help but ask. Only three of the many Heavenly Punisher possessed the Eye of the Two Instruments, two of whom were the Seven Original Sins, but within three days of possessing the Eye, they committed suicide because of the madness. And the other one is Jin Shuangyue. That eye contains future vision, perspective, or the highest level of perspective that can see the size of other people's souls. There's also the Twisted Eye, the kind that can destroy objects with just one look.
Wuyue nodded.
"With the eyes of Liangyi, it is really difficult to deal with, there is no need to think about sneak attacks, as long as it is a living thing, it cannot be hidden under that eye."
"That's right, and I've heard that. Liangyi's eyes are not that guy's trump card. Jin Shuangyue has three unknown cards in addition to the two Yi Tong Eyes, which are more terrifying than the two Yi Tong Eyes, which are trump cards. ”
"You're not kidding, except for the Eight Desolation Artifact. I haven't seen anything more powerful than the two instruments. ”
"Is it like a joke on my face?" Wuyue said and held her eyes with her hand. "Those with a soul value of more than five hundred can become a B-level Heavenly Punisher. More than 1,000 are A-level Heavenly Punishers. More than 2,000 are S-level Heavenly Punishers. Three thousand three hundred and two is the lowest value of the Seven Original Sins at present, and the Twin Moon Yuan Soul Value has reached four thousand eight hundred and fifty, which is far beyond the lowest level of the Seven Original Sins. ”
"Cut, no matter how powerful the power is, it is nothing in front of the illusionist."
"Hua Yaxin, do you think that you are just an illusionist, and other illusionists can't think of it? In order for the human body to act, it must first send out brain waves to give instructions to various parts of its body before it can make movements. And the wavelength of each person's brain waves is different. The basic principle of the illusionist's control over others is to imitate the brain waves of the control object, so that various parts of the opponent's body mistakenly believe that the instructions sent by their own brain are controlled by the illusionist. However, the wavelength of the bilunar brain waves is constantly changing, which is equivalent to changing the password that controls various parts of the body all the time, so you can't control her at all. Besides, she is also different from the previous applicants of the Chosen War, this time she is not fighting alone, there are two other Heavenly Punisher as her helpers, if you can win the two moons, the sun will rise in the west tomorrow. ”
"Are there any other chosen ones?"
"No, and the Angel Advent plan is about to begin. It is estimated that this may be the last battle of the Chosen One, after all, once the Angel Advent plan is successful, there is no need for the organization to choose weapons anymore, and the world is likely to usher in unification. ”
"There's no other way. In order to see Xiaoxiao, I can only participate in this Chosen Battle. ”
"Are you crazy? If you go, you will be sent to death, or the kind that you will give for nothing. Is it that important for you to meet her? You've been in your dreams and novels for more than ten years, haven't you said enough? ”
I looked out the window at the sun and was silent for a moment. "Xiaoxiao has done so much for me, but I haven't said thank you to her personally. Even if the opponent is the head of the Seven Original Sins, I will defeat him, win the Battle of the Chosen, and see her again. ”
