Aoki responded to Huang Ziqiang's request to treat nightmares, but before the disease was cured, he inexplicably became the heir of a big family comparable to Rockefeller.

"I really can't accept such a ridiculous thing, no matter what business you do, I'm not interested." Aoki shook his head and said, "I'm here to heal you." Shouldn't you think about your health and safety first, find a way to solve that nightmare of yours, and then talk about your family's internal affairs? ”

Hong Kui, whose face had always been calm, showed a surprised expression, and there was a little more appreciation in his eyes.

Hong Zhenlong said: "Okay, everyone has their own ambitions, and when we meet for the first time, it is indeed a bit inappropriate to talk about such a topic." "He was already in a bad spirit, and after talking so much, he looked even more haggard.

Aoki said, "Mr. Hong, your health is not good, you need to rest more. ”

"I know, but the nightmare keeps me from getting a good night's sleep," Hong said. ”

"Tell me about that nightmare." Aoki said, "How long has that shadow been in your dreams?" ”

Hong Zhenlong was stunned for a moment and said, "It turns out that you also saw him!" I don't know how long he's been here, but I know he's influencing me. ”

"He's going to kill you in a dream?"

"Yes, he once tried to kill me. It was the scariest dream I've ever had, and I'll never forget the moment he got up. Hong Zhenlong said with a painful face.

"And then?"

"I had dreams like this every day, I was exhausted, and my body quickly collapsed during that time. At that time, I thought I was going to die, and even made a will. But one day, he suddenly stopped killing me, but encouraged me to enter the forbidden land. ”

"Forbidden land? Is it the ice and snow world where the white wolf is? ”

"Yes." Hong Zhenlong said, "Zu Xun said that it was the forbidden land of our ancestors, and it was the place guarded by the wolf king. I also wanted to take a look, but I couldn't get close. ”

"And later?"

"I said I couldn't get in. He forced me and influenced me. And then that's what you see. He and I have a heart-to-heart connection and can touch my feelings, and every time I see the scene of those predators besieging the wolf king, I will be furious, and then rush to the forbidden land. But every time I rushed over, I felt like the sky was falling, crushing me to pieces. ”

Aoki listened and fell into deep thought.

It seems that this intrusive consciousness is very interested in the forbidden land in Hong Zhenlong's dream, so the shadow does not kill him, but wants him to break through the blockade of the forbidden land.

This shows two things: first, there is something in this forbidden place that is important for invading the conscious body; Second, the parasitic consciousness did not dare to kill Hong Zhenlong's ontological consciousness, if it was killed, the forbidden land would likely disappear, indicating that the existence of the forbidden land was only related to the consciousness body, and had nothing to do with memory.

What's in the Forbidden Land? Aoki immediately thought of the memory seal forbidden area in Yao's mother's mind. Could it be something like that?

Hong Zhenlong saw that Aoki suddenly fell silent and stopped talking, and asked worriedly, "Is it that I am already terminally ill and can't last long?" Mr. Aoki might as well say bluntly, I have lived most of my life, I have experienced everything, this old bone has nothing to be nostalgic for, and the matter of life and death has long been downplayed. ”

He didn't know that there was such a thing as a parasitic consciousness invading, and he thought that he had done something wrong and offended the ancestral gods.

Of course, Aoki can't tell Hong Zhenlong the truth right away, who knows if that shadow will spread the news. He decided to suppress the shadow in his dream for the time being, and when he saw that Hong Zhenlong was tired, he asked him to rest first.

Taking advantage of Hong Zhenlong's closing eyes, Aoki entered his dream and saw the vast snow-capped mountain again.

In the distance, gray wolves ran through the mountains, and the sound of wind and snow could be faintly heard.

Hong Zhenlong stood on the snow-covered hillside and looked into the distance, and when a group of sled dogs appeared, his eyes began to turn blue, his hands were clenched into fists, and his body trembled slightly.

The last time because the dream world of ice and snow was too shocking, Aoki didn't notice that shadow until Hong Zhenlong rushed over with flames. This time he was much more careful, and as soon as he came in, he saw the shadow under Hong Zhenlong's feet.

In the beginning, the shadow is still a normal shadow, and it is difficult to tell if it is an intruder or not. But when the sled dog chased the wolves and the gunshots rang out, the shadow suddenly opened his eyes, and it was at this time that Hong Zhenlong's eyes began to turn blue. And when Hong Zhenlong trembled, his shadow remained motionless on the ground.

Aoki sneered and began to slowly approach Hong Zhenlong.

The white wolf had appeared, and Hong Zhenlong's chest began to burst into flames, and the uncontrollable anger drove him forward, and behind him, his shadow slowly stood up.

At this time, he suddenly heard the sound of tapping and tapping.

Hong Zhenlong turned his head to look and saw a strange and somewhat familiar man appear in his field of vision, the hair on his head was messy, stained with snow particles, and the gray old windbreaker was blown up by the cold wind and flew behind him, looking a little thin in this ice and snow, but very free. What's even more amazing is that on such a cold day, the man only wore a pair of pull-up boards, and walked in the snow on a tap, leaving a long line of footprints.

I don't know why, Hong Zhenlong heard the sound of tapping and tapping, his mood became surprisingly calm, his anger gradually subsided, and the flames in his body slowly extinguished like a burnt firewood.

The shadow that had stood up also retreated, becoming a normal shadow.

"Who are you?" Hong Zhenlong's chest rose and fell violently, as if he was trying to think of something, but he couldn't.

Aoki smiled at him and looked at the shadows underground. This time he didn't summon the crow, he wanted to see what the shadow looked like, so he said to the shadow, "Stand up, let me see what you look like." ”

The shadow stood up, slowly revealing the details of its facial features, and took on the appearance of a human being. That appearance is clearly another Hong Zhenlong, but it is a little obscure, like a layer of water vapor pasted on the mirror.

"Who the hell are you?" Aoki asked.

"I'm Hong Zhenlong." Shadow said.

Hong Zhenlong was shocked: "I am Hong Zhenlong!" ”

The shadow said, "You're right, I'm you." I'm exactly like you, you're me. ”

Aoki knew that the shadow had received all of Hong Zhenlong's memories, so there was no difference in thought and behavior, except for the conscious thinking characteristics corresponding to Lester's signature. However, the shadow must still have some primordial consciousness or something, otherwise he would not have other thoughts when he replaced the proprioceptive consciousness, such as entering the forbidden area of Hong Zhenlong's dream.

Where does this primordial consciousness come from? What drove him to want to get into the restricted area?
