"The woman's bloody face with a smirk, almost touching mine, stared at me with a sneering look for a moment, her lips moving silently......"

Speaking of this, Lin Sen paused again, cold sweat rippled on his face.

Everyone waited for a long time, but Lin Sen still didn't continue, and finally Liu Yao couldn't bear it anymore and asked, "That, that woman...... What was said? ”

Lin Sen came back to his senses for a while, and first showed an apologetic smile to everyone, and everyone nodded in understanding, but the final ending of Lin Sen's strange dream was too curious, and everyone showed a look of concern.

But Lin Sen opened his mouth and gave a very disappointing answer.

She ...... I'm not really sure what she said. Lin Sen said.

Everyone looked at each other.

"Don't worry, listen to me." Lin Sen explained, "The woman's tongue was also cut off in half, so she couldn't speak at all, and I woke up when this dream got here, so I can only rely on recalling the shape of her lips when she spoke, so I can only guess what she wants to say." ”

After speaking, Lin Sen's lips opened and closed, and in a silent form, he began to "speak".

Everyone immediately understood that Lin Sen was simulating the situation when the woman spoke last, so they carefully distinguished Lin Sen's lips and tried to figure out the content.

Lin Sen studied it three times in a row, and only stopped after making sure that everyone could see it clearly.

"It seems to say; If you can't do it in this life, there will be retribution in the next life'? Meng Rong tried to say her understanding, her voice trembling a little, obviously frightened by the terrifying dream that Lin Sen recounted.

Liu Yao disagreed, and put forward her own opinion: "No, how can I feel like saying: 'Despite the murder, everything will have its own retribution'? ”

Fang Zhe had a thoughtful expression, and finally shook his head and asked Lin Sen, "You just said it three times, but how do I think you have a difference between the three times?" ”

Lin Sen nodded, "That's right, the three times are slightly different." That's because the woman's lips moved quickly, and I could only recall after waking up, during which there were a few lip movements, and I remember very vaguely, desperately recalling, and I couldn't be sure which one was correct. ”

Luo Xing thought of another question and asked, "How many times have you had this dream?" ”

"About 134 times." Lin Sen replied without hesitation.

Luo Xing frowned, "Since there is an exact number, why is there an 'approximate'?" ”

"This dream, I started to do it when I was not very sensible, although I have been counting since I was eight years old, but before the age of eight, how many times I did it, I am not sure."

"Since you've repeated it so many times, this dream should be extremely familiar to you—"

"I know what you're going to say." Lin Sen interrupted Luo Xing's words, "Actually, this is what I've been very puzzled about - you should remember that when I described my dream to you, I kept emphasizing how the 'dream me' was, remember?" ”

Everyone nodded.

At this time, Fang Zhe was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized: "You mean, the one in the dream doesn't remember the things in the real world at all, and you don't remember that you once had this dream?" ”

"Well, that's pretty much it." Lin Sen nodded, "Every time I have this dream, it feels like I have this dream for the first time, and besides, I have no memory of the real world, nor any memory other than what happened in that dream. Lin Sen showed a wry smile on his face, and his voice was low, "So, every time I achieve this dream, it is a new trip to hell for me, and only the moment I wake up from the nightmare, will I understand that I have just escaped from the hell that I have been to more than a hundred times." But no matter how scared I was, I tried every means to prevent myself from having this dream again, and I even prayed to all the gods and repented of all my sins...... However, it was completely useless. ”

"When this dream tries to haunt me, I can't help but fall asleep and start dreaming. It was as if I had fallen into the abyss of endless hell, and I felt like every time I woke up, I was just surviving, all for the next time, for the next time...... Until it tortures me endlessly. Lin Sen smiled on his face, but his expression was more like crying, "Can you understand such despair and horror?" ”

Fang Zhe, Luo Xing, Meng Rong, Liu Yao, and the four of them were silent for a while, Meng Rong wanted to say something to comfort Lin Sen, but she opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

Thinking about it a little, the four of them all felt that their hairs stood on end, such an experience was really too weird and terrifying, if another person experienced such a thing, he might have already been driven crazy or committed suicide, Lin Sen could have endured it for so long, it was really not easy.

Everyone was relatively speechless, Fang Zhe and Luo Xing both sighed, and could only pat Lin Sen's shoulder to express understanding and encouragement, while Meng Rong on the side, looking at Lin Sen with a pair of teary eyes, was already about to cry.

Liu Yao's expression suddenly changed, "Lin Sen, you can't go on like this, you should go to a psychiatrist to take a look!" ”

Lin Sen shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Of course, Lin Sen has found a psychiatrist, and even a hypnotist, but there is no doubt that it is useless.

Luo Xing thought of another thing, "No, Lin Sen, you just said that you had this dream at night, so why did you fall asleep this afternoon, but you still haven't explained." ”

"I was about to say this." Lin Sen took a sip of wine and seemed to settle down, "Today, I had this dream for the first time during the day, and the content of the dream has changed. ”

"The beginning of the dream is still the same as before. However, this time, I seemed to retain some memories in my dream, because after I entered the room, I found that there was one less person who was supposed to be in the room—it was still the big man who opened the door for me, and in the room, the sloppy old man was still there, and the hemp face was still there, except for the little girl. ”

"None of the three men spoke, but they looked at me with their eyes unspeakably strange. I was about to ask a question, but suddenly I realized something, snatched the scimitar from the big man's hand, tossed the bonfire on the ground aside, threw myself on the ground, and opened the hole in the ground like a madman—it was still the bloodstained water tank, but the people in the water tank had changed ......"

The woman was gone, and in her place, it was the girl named Xiaoling. Xiao Ling died, and the way she died was exactly the same as the original woman: her ears, nose and limbs were cut off, and her small body was even more bloody and almost stabbed. Her eyes rolled up, revealing only the whites of her eyes, but I always felt like she was still staring at me—just as she had been when she was alive. When she was alive, she looked at me with fear and disgust, but at this moment, she was full of resentment. ”

"'Xiao Guo!' Just as I was stunned by Xiao Ling's corpse, I heard the old man speak, Xiao Guo was my name in the dream, so I turned around to look at him. The old man's face was full of resentment, and he could not contain the anger in his tone, and he shouted at me; 'You've been shirking and refusing to do it!' Now Xiaoling has died because of you! You have a hard time thinking about it, but sooner or later you will put us all in a doomed place! ’”

The old man shouted angrily, and the expression on his face was so terrible that I didn't know how to defend myself for a while, but at this moment I felt a chill on my waist, and when I looked down, I saw that the tip of a knife with half blood dripping on my stomach was exposed. I understood what was happening, and was about to open my mouth when a rough palm covered my mouth, and then I heard the big man come close to my ear and say to me hatefully; 'You want to be the only one, but I want you to die first!' As he spoke, he twisted the knife that had been inserted into my body, and I only felt that the strength of my whole body was rapidly drained with the slowly twisting blade, and when the big man pulled out the scimitar, I could only collapse on the ground, and I could not use any strength at all. ”

Then they set the house on fire, leaving me alone. I knew that I had only one way to die, either from blood loss or by fire, but I was not reconciled, so I struggled desperately on the ground. I said it was a struggle, but in fact, I was scratching and pulling on the ground with my twitching fingers and toes, and my whole body couldn't move at all, and I wanted to scream, but my nose and throat were full of blood foam. ”

"The fire is getting bigger and bigger, but everything in my eyes is slowly dimming...... Lin Sen took a deep breath, "Although it is a dream, I am sure that it is the feeling of real death - with the indescribable cold, you really feel your life disappearing for the first time, it is a rapid sense of withdrawal: sound, color, temperature, all kinds of senses, all quickly escape from you, and at the moment of real death, it is a sense of falling—all five senses are deprived, and the soul is falling into endless darkness." ”

"I almost really, I felt like I was dead. In the first few minutes after I woke up, I still couldn't shake off the feeling of being in a deep death, and I couldn't believe that I had just dreamed. Lin Sen smiled bitterly, raised his head and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.

"You, me, and us are all alive, but a living person cannot know what it feels like to die." Fang Zhe looked at Lin Sen seriously, his expression serious.

Lin Sen showed a miserable smile: "In fact, I can't tell whether I am alive or dead. Perhaps, everything in front of me now is my illusion, and the real me has already died in that room, burned to a pile of black ashes. ”

The expression on Fang Zhe's face became more serious: "Lin Sen, your situation is very dangerous. You can't go on like this, if you go on like this, sooner or later you won't be able to hold on! ”

"You're saying I'm going to be mentally ill?" Lin Sen raised his head and looked at Fang Zhe expressionlessly, his eyes were so sharp that people couldn't look at them directly, "How I am, I know better than anyone else, and I don't need to be reminded by others." I already knew the consequences of telling this-" The corners of Lin Sen's mouth hooked up a mocking angle, "The result, in exchange for your current reaction-you don't believe what I said at all, all my pain, in your eyes, is only because I am mentally ill!" ”

As he spoke, Lin Sen stood up abruptly and grabbed the red wine on the table, but Fang Zhe also reached out and pressed the wine bottle, "You're drunk!" Fang Zhe said.

"I'm not drunk! Let go! Lin Sen's eyes were on fire, and he said in a deep voice, "Let go!" ”

Both of them were unwilling to give in, and the scene was about to erupt, but at this time, there was another hand on Lin Sen's forearm.

The hand, cold, trembling slightly.

Lin Sen looked in the direction of that hand, just in time to meet Meng Rong's pale and even somewhat sad face.

"Lin Sen, Fang Zhe, don't ...... like this" Meng Rong's eyes shone with a glimmer, and she was about to cry.

Seeing Meng Rong like this, Fang Zhe no longer insisted, and let go first, but he snorted in his nose, "I don't know the hearts of good people!" ”

Being pulled by Meng Rong, Lin Sen was originally angry and dissipated slightly, but after hearing Fang Zhe's sentence "I don't know the hearts of good people", Lin Sen's face turned cold, and he sneered: "Originally, I swore that I would never tell others about this strange dream of myself, and I don't know what evil I suffered today, but I actually said it, it can be regarded as my own fun!" However, as the saying goes, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, one day you will understand how stupid you are now. ”

Fang Zhe's face was red and white for a while when Lin Sen said, if it weren't for Liu Yao also pulling him to the side, I'm afraid that this pair of former friends would have turned over on the spot.

After Lin Sen finished speaking, he broke free of Meng Rong's hand holding his arm, his face was as cold as frost, and he didn't even say a word of goodbye, he left on his own.

The next day, Lin Sen did not come to work.

Three days later, Lin Sen's body was found in the apartment he rented.

Lin Sen's death was horrifying: his body was wrapped tightly from head to toe in a large red cloth, like a mummy, and then hung in the air with a white rope around his neck, hanging from a large crystal chandelier in the living room, and a large pool of congealed blood on the floor......

It is said that when the landlord called the police, because he cried too badly, coupled with extreme incoherent speech, the police did not find out that it was not a domestic violence case, but a murder case.
