Chapter 362: The Seed of Dreamland
This is not the first time Ye Qianhu has come to London, England, but this time it is in a new world, again.
Outside a remote orphanage, two figures appeared here out of thin air, without the slightest warning.
Luckily, it's late at night, and it's remote enough. Although the buildings on both sides of the street are still bright, the streets are already empty, otherwise there may be rumors of an alien invasion tomorrow.
Looking at the suddenly changed environment around him, the fox's eyes couldn't help but reveal some curiosity, not too special, just felt a momentary distraction, and then everything in front of him changed.
The things in the textile factory disappeared, revealing a completely unfamiliar street and the orphanage around her.
"Is this the orphanage where Sophie is?" The fox looked at the red-brick building beside him, separated from the street by an iron fence, and above the closed gate there was a light on both sides, and behind that he could see that the hall on the first floor was still lit.
But at this time, no one could be heard moving, and at this time, only the housemaiden, Sophie, and an orange cat were still awake, and the others, the children, had already gone to bed.
"This is it, hopefully BFG will show up tonight, so we can just wait here every night."
Ye Qianhu had just finished speaking, and Lilith's voice was already ringing in his head.
"This mission: Obtain the seeds of dreams. Reward: 100 Energy Points. ”
Hearing the name "Dreamland" in this mission, Ye Qianhu immediately thought of what it was, of course, this is not the dreamland after a person falls asleep, but the place where all dreams in this world are born, located in the Giant Country, and where BFG has been capturing beautiful dreams.
That place is located at the top of a mountain in the Giant Country, and after passing through a cloud condensed on the top of the mountain, it is as if you have arrived in another time and space, and you will reach that mysterious dreamland.
Ye Qianhu still remembers the picture of dreamland in the movie, the sky is like a brilliant Northern Lights, colorful light keeps sprinkling down, when it falls on the huge tree, it condenses into a colorful dream on the tree, and finally drops like water droplets along the veins of the tree from the top of the leaves, and then flies like fireflies in the dreamland.
I have to say that Spielberg's "Dream Giant" is more like a fairy tale than its original book, the children's story called "The Good-Eyed Giant", and the scenes about the land of giants and dreams depicted in the movie are really much more beautiful than in the middle.
The beautiful kingdom of giants, in which it is a desert-like place, is like a fairyland dreamland, and in the original book, it is a gray world, a giant named BFG, who entertains himself and captures those dreams that cannot be seen at all.
Although the whole story in this movie has no complicated logic, and the emotions of the characters are basically good people except for the nine giants who like to eat people, it looks a bit of a face, but, to some extent, this may also be the charm of this story. After all, this world is a fairy tale in itself.
But what is the seed of dreamland?
Lilith gave him no answers, no hints, and fell silent as usual, after a formulaic finish of the task.
Noticing that Ye Qianhu paused when he spoke, the fox looked over with an inquiring look in his eyes.
Ye Qianhu said: "Let's leave the street first, if BFG will appear tonight, we will stay here, and Sophie may not be able to meet BFG." ”
Hearing this, the fox looked around, raised his chin towards the bookstore in front, and said, "This place is good, located at the intersection, on the second floor, you can notice the front of the orphanage, and there is a large area nearby. ”
Ye Qianhu looked towards the second floor of this bookstore and said, "The room with the best view, that should be the bedroom, it seems that it will definitely disturb other people's sleep." ”
"They're sure they won't mind." The fox said that he had already walked towards the bookstore, and although the door of the bookstore was locked, it didn't seem to be much trouble for the fox.
The owner of the bookstore, unbeknownst to him, had two uninvited guests entering his room. He was already asleep, but soon after Ye Qianhu and the fox came here, he became more completely unconscious.
Not to mention that Ye Qianhu and the fox are waiting for the giants here, tonight, I am afraid that he will not wake up even if it is an earthquake.
Carefully placed several small cameras in several directions, in the bookstore owner's bedroom, Ye Qianhu turned on the computer, connected the camera, and then several clear independent pictures were displayed on the monitor.
Ye Qianhu said to the unknown fox: "If BFG shows up tonight, he will pass by the orphanage after three o'clock in the morning and be found by Sophie." ”
"BFG has a very keen sense, especially hearing, and is very careful. So, if we monitor this place in a direct way, or with a drone, it is very likely to disturb him. ”
Not long after the picture stabilized, a small figure flashed in it, and soon the lights in the hall on the first floor of the orphanage opposite were extinguished one by one.
"Is that Sophie?" Keenly noticing the figure that flashed behind the glass window, the fox standing behind Ye Qianhu asked.
"Yes, Sophie," Ye Qianhu smiled and said, "A little girl who always sleeps late and never dreams, believes that three o'clock in the morning is a magical hour, maybe she is waiting for something special to happen." ”
"Heh, what a cute little fellow. So, is our goal to follow that giant into the kingdom of giants? The fox asked.
Ye Qianhu nodded and said, "The dream land of the Giant Country, that is, the place where the dream of this world was born, there is something I need. ”
"There is no way to find the location of the entrance to the land of giants on the map, and if you want to enter there, you can only be guided by giants."
The fox glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and said, "It's already three o'clock, and you're sure the giant will show up tonight." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the fox frowned, and from outside the bookstore, the noisy voices of several people could be heard in the distance, and the voices became clearer and clearer, and the owner of the voice came from far and near the street below.
"Like, it's a couple of drunkards." The fox said with disgust in his voice.
"It wasn't certain just now, but now it's certain that our guide will be here soon." Ye Qianhu said firmly, and in the picture transmitted by one of the cameras in front of him, four drunk people appeared on the street, noisily walking towards this side.
And this familiar scene is not the beginning of the movie's plot.
