Chapter 68: Strange Nightmare
After Long Xuanling left, Lao Hei's attitude towards me became diametrically opposed to before, not only did he no longer withhold food, but also brought me some hot water from time to time to drink.
I was also told that the Gong bucket was in the last corner of the cage and that after it was used, they would dispose of it.
This makes me a little embarrassed, but this is the only way to go.
So, I nodded at Lao Hei and thanked him.
And, when I had eaten and drunk enough, I lay down on the cushion, wrapped in the futon, warmed my body, and gradually subsided all the fear in my heart.
When I closed my eyes, I fell asleep unconsciously.
I don't know how long I slept this night, but when I woke up, there was silence all around, because there were no windows in this building, and I didn't know what time it was.
It's just a daze, curled up in the bed, thinking that it should be late at night.
"Whew!"
I was about to close my eyes and continue to sleep for a while, but the candle flame on the wall began to flicker violently.
Looking at the shadowy candlelight, I immediately felt half refreshed and hurriedly sat up.
"Who!" I shouted.
The candle flickered for a while, and then went out with a "poof".
Before my eyes, it was dark again.
"Old Black! Old Black! "This time, I didn't wait for the strange song to start again, and I called out loudly.
"Click, click."
The sound of chaotic footsteps immediately came from downstairs, and then I heard the voice of the old black.
"Master Luo, don't be afraid, it's just that the candle is out." After he finished speaking, he motioned for the demon slaves below to come up with kerosene lamps.
Then I lit the two candles on the opposite wall again, I looked around in a panic and asked the old black: "There is no wind here, why does the candle flame go out by itself?" ”
"This?" Lao Hei thought for a while, couldn't say why, was silent for a long time, and then said to me: "Master Luo, don't be careful, probably this candle is not good, so it will go out on its own, this is also a common thing, don't be so nervous, let's rest." ”
After he gave me a perfunctory reply, he was ready to turn around and go downstairs.
"It's better for you to leave one and keep it here." I looked at the old black ones.
When Lao Hei heard this, he immediately shook his head.
"Master Luo, this is not in line with the rules, this demon is clearly distinguished from inferiority, how can a slave stay with the master? You, don't think nonsense, close your eyes, get some sleep, and when you're in good spirits, you won't think about all that mess anymore. ”
After he finished speaking, he took the demon slave downstairs.
I sat on the cushion, a little nervous, I would not be able to sleep, so I simply sat against the post.
A hand, pressed on his abdomen, told himself that he was about to become a mother now, and he was still frightened by these gods and ghosts, which was too ridiculous.
Moreover, I am not alone, and this child is with me.
Thinking about it makes me feel a lot better.
After meditating for half an hour and making sure that there was nothing unusual, I slowly lay down again, telling myself that if I slept again, I might be able to see Long Xuanling when I woke up.
"Gold thread, red satin, wedding dress, crested hairpin, agate bracelet, worn by the bride."
In the haze, the strange singing voice hit again, and my heart beat fast, because of fear, I didn't dare to open my eyes directly.
Instead, he shivered, and pulled the bedding tighter.
muttered silently in his heart, hallucination, everything is an illusion, Long Xuanling said it, there is no ghost here, it must be an illusion.
"Break the green silk, strip the black pupils, and cut off the limbs to become a demon."
The voice seemed to be deliberately working against me, and I thought it was a hallucination, but it became clearer and clearer.
"My body is decomposing, let me die sooner?"
The sound of humming had reached my ears, and I clung to the futon, but I found that the silk futon in my hand had become a little damp, and the whole lump was so heavy that I couldn't breathe.
I had no choice but to grit my teeth and open my eyes, but I ended up with a terrifying face that had been half rotted, and the bedding on my body turned into a big lump of black hair.
The black hair wrapped me around me so tightly that I almost suffocated.
"Help! Help me! Help me! ”
I screamed hysterically, except for calling for help, I didn't have the slightest strength to fight back at the moment.
"Master Luo? Master Luo? ”
Faintly, I heard someone calling me.
"Master Luo? Are you awake? ”
The other man's voice raised a lot, and I opened my eyes from the chaos, and I was shocked to find that I was still lying in the futon, and the rotten face was gone.
Lao Hei looked at me with a little anger in his eyes, but it was not easy to attack.
"Master Luo, what kind of nightmare are you having here? Surprised? It's not even dawn outside! He stared at me and yawned.
"Me?" Am I now unable to distinguish between dreams and reality?
What's going on? Was it really just a dream? But I don't think so, it's a real feeling.
Moreover, such a terrible ballad is not something I could have made up out of thin air, there must be something wrong here.
"Lao Hei, there is really a problem here, there must be a ghost, me?" Before he finished speaking, Lao Hei shook his head impatiently.
"Master Luo, are you trying to toss me to death? I've said it all, there are no ghosts here, don't think nonsense, it's the middle of the night, let's rest. Old Black said, angrily walking towards the staircase.
I called him several times, but he didn't look back, thinking that I had disturbed his dreams.
There was no way, I could only sit against the cage pillar, and I was determined to wait for Long Xuanling to come over, and raised my head to look at the top.
Yesterday, I noticed that there was a black mass on the top, and when I thought back to the nightmare I just had, I immediately thought that the black thing could be hair.
That sneaky, it should be hiding there, right?
Thinking about it like this, my whole body was tense, and my eyes looked straight up, not daring to relax in the slightest, for fear that the things above would suddenly fall down and attack me like in a dream.
Tilting his head, the time seemed to have been stretched a little, and it was very slow, and I finally stayed up until Lao Hei and they came to deliver breakfast, but I heard that Long Xuanling couldn't come today.
The reason is that Emperor Feng began to cultivate for Long Xuanling again.
It seems that she already knows that I am not in the womb of a dragon fetus, so I can only obediently obey, so it is the best.
But after thinking about it, there was still a strange thing on the top of his head, and he originally wanted Long Xuanling to help see what it was, but now he could only ask Lao Hei for help.
