Chapter 489: Illusion or Reality

Sure enough, a moment later, an emaciated black dog came out from behind the tree, the same old dog I had seen in my vision the night before, and as if afraid of the sun, it had been hanging its eyelids and hiding its red eyes like coals from behind the tree.

It was only then that I noticed that a huge tree appeared in the middle of the school stadium in the background, and that tree had no crown, just a bare trunk, and the bark was white, and the dark markings on it were somewhat similar to those of a birch tree, and the markings looked like huge eyes, staring at me through the TV screen.

There was a sharp "squeak" sound from the door of the guest room, and I thought it was Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang coming out, so I turned my head to look at the door of the guest room.

It wasn't Liu Shangang or Liang Houzai who came out of the guest room, it was an old man in a robe, and his hat covered his face, so I couldn't see his appearance.

But since I can't see his face, how do I know that he is an old man?

It was then that he suddenly raised his head, and I noticed that a narrow iron nail had been driven into the bridge of his nose, and blood was flowing vigorously down the gap between the nail and the flesh.

"Where is your bread?"

His lips didn't move, but there was a thick sound in his throat.

I immediately put my hand into my jacket pocket, but instead of the persimmon cake, I felt a puddle of slimy stuff, and I took my hand to look at it, and there was a lot of black liquid like asphalt on my hand.

As soon as the liquid appeared, my head buzzed again, and my temples hurt like they had been pricked by needles......

The next moment, a bright light flashed in front of my eyes, and I instinctively closed my eyes quickly, and when I opened my eyes again, I found that I was still lying on the bed in the bedroom, both outside the window and in the bedroom, it was pitch black.

I sat up slowly with my hands on the bed, and looked at my phone, the time was twelve and five minutes, and I should have started dreaming at twelve o'clock. Putting down my phone, I quickly put the persimmon cake under the pillow on my body, then got up, turned on the lamp, and recorded the dream just now.

The old man's voice appeared again, and this was still the place where I couldn't let go of it. In addition, the huge tree, the emaciated black dog, and the iron nails that appeared on different faces twice, I recorded them all.

I compared the similarities and differences between the two dreams, and the more I felt that the combination of the iron nail and the sound of Liang Houzai seemed to suggest something to me. As for the black dog and the huge tree, whether in the illusion or in the dream, they also appeared at the same time, and there seems to be some kind of numerological connection between the two.

Closing the cover of my notebook, I breathed a sigh of relief at the window, where I could see the open space between apartments 8 and 3 of the school, where the body of the girl was said to have been found.

When the girl made up her mind to jump off the building, there must have been a lot of resentment hoarded in her near the No. 3 dormitory, but after the start of school, a large amount of popularity should quickly wash away the resentment there. After so many years, why did the resentment that had long disappeared come into play again when Han Jin spread the curse?

I remember that when I looked at the roof of the third dormitory building from the dormitory window, I didn't feel resentment, but what was that uncomfortable feeling?

Thinking about it, I don't have a clue at all. More and more, I felt that I couldn't look at such things as ancient witchcraft in the way I was used to thinking.

Eventually, I decided to tell Liang Houjae about the two dreams and some of my questions, and I always felt like he was hiding something from me these days, and I don't know if I can ask for a reason tomorrow.

Putting the notebook back in the drawer, I went back to bed again, put the persimmon cake under the pillow, and quickly fell asleep.

I slept so deeply that I didn't dream until the alarm went off at six o'clock, or maybe I had some dreams, but I couldn't remember them because I was asleep.

When I got up, I touched the persimmon cake under the pillow first, it was still there, and it was in good condition, I got dressed, carefully put it in my jacket pocket, and then left the bedroom and went to the bathroom to wash.

Liu Shangang has always gotten up much faster than me, and when I walked to the bathroom door with my toothbrush, he was already out of it.

When he walked up to me, he deliberately looked at my face, smiled and said, "You look good." ”

I said "um" and went into the bathroom.

Not only Liang Houzai, but Liu Shangang always looked at me with that kind of extremely worried eyes in the past two days, and I always felt that there was something that the two of them knew, but kept me in the dark.

As soon as I finished cleaning up, Liang Houzai came in with a towel around his neck, and he, like Liu Shangang, deliberately looked at my face when he walked past me, and smiled at me, and I smiled at him.

After the morning exercise was over, I took them to the small shop at the north gate of the school to eat bean brain, just as I had planned in my dream.

"It's sweet soy sauce, you can sprinkle these pickles into it, it's not very salty, you can try it, and chili powder." As I spoke, I placed plate after plate of condiments in front of them.

Liu Shangang sprinkled the ingredients, took a small bite, and then gave a thumbs up: "It tastes good." ”

I also tasted it, and although the bean brain in this shop has not changed as usual, I still pretended to frown: "Why is it different from the taste in my dream?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Shangang made a "poof" sound, spraying the bean brain that had just arrived in his mouth all over the ground, I kept staring at him, he raised his head slightly and noticed my eyes, and then pretended to cough, saying that he was choked by chili powder.

I threw the spoon back into the bowl, sighed, and said, "Do you have chili powder in that bowl of bean brains?" ”

Liu Shangang glanced at his bowl, was slightly stunned, and then said: "Oh, there is no chili powder, how can it be spicy just now, oh, it may be minced pickles, this minced pickles are a little spicy." ”

I stared into his eyes: "Don't talk to me, tell me quickly, what's going on?" ”

Liu Shangang immediately showed an embarrassed expression: "Huh? What's going on? Hehe, Brother Dao, why don't I understand what you say? ”

When he spoke, his eyes kept looking at Liang Houzai, and Liang Houzai had been eating beans since just now, he kept his head down, and his face couldn't be buckled on the bowl.

I knocked on the table with my hand: "Liang Houzai, and you, what are you two hiding from me lately?" ”

Liang Houzai raised his head at this time, he and Liu Shangang glanced at each other, and then the two of them remained silent very tacitly.

The most annoying thing is such a person who pretends to be bored whenever something happens, and doesn't say a word.

But I wasn't in a hurry, squinting my eyes while banging on the table with my hands, staring at them silently, wasting time with the two of them.

The first person who couldn't hold back was Liu Shangang, I stared at him for a while, his eyes began to hide, very deliberately avoiding my gaze, and from time to time he looked towards Liang Houzai, as if there was something to ask Liang Houzai's opinion, but Liang Houzai kept staring at the table and did not give Liu Shangang any feedback at all.

My patience was almost exhausted by the two of them, so I said to Liu Shangang: "If you have something to say, you can look east and west, what about being a thief?" ”

Liu Shangang hesitated for a moment, then picked up the bowl, took a big sip of bean brain, wiped his mouth, and said to me: "Brother Dao, in fact, when you dream every night, we all know it. ”

"What do you mean?" I asked as I shoved a fire into his hand.

Liu Shangang: "You don't know yourself, in fact, every time you dream, you feel like you've fallen into an evil spirit, and your whole body trembles like a sieve." Brother Zai said that your dreams are either very scary, or they make you feel very uncomfortable, so we have never dared to talk to you about this, for fear that you will evoke your memories of those dreams. ”

Is this the case when I dream?

But I didn't feel that those dreams were horrible, as for uncomfortable...... It's true that the environment in my dream is so real that it does give me a very strange feeling, but it doesn't make me tremble.

At this time, Liang Houzai also straightened up, he let out a sigh of relief, and said to me: "Actually, when you dreamed twice, Liu Shangang and I were both guarding your room, and we tried to wake you up in various ways, but you just couldn't wake up until the Qi field on the black water corpse coffin broke out. You can wake up from those dreams because of the Blackwater Coffin. ”

I recalled the first two dreams again and nodded: "No wonder I can hear your voice every time, it seems that when I fell into the dream, you and Liu Shangang kept talking next to me?" ”

Without waiting for Liang Houzai to speak, Liu Shangang preemptively said: "No, Brother Zai said that you can only be awakened by stimulating you with talismans or telekinesis, if we wake you up directly, it will be like forcibly waking up a sleepwalking person, you will go crazy if you can......'t get it."

Liang Houzai hurriedly interrupted him: "Stop, who told you to wake up sleepwalkers, they will go crazy?" ”

After saying that, Liang Houzai turned to me again: "But the two of us really haven't spoken in front of your bed." ”

"Okay, let's eat first, I'll show you something after eating." As I spoke, I picked up the spoon in the bowl.

Liu Shangang looked at me for a while, and asked me with some surprise: "Brother Dao, how do I feel, you seem to be nothing?" ”

I swallowed a spoonful of bean brains and asked him, "So what do you think I'm going to do?" ”

Liu Shangang said: "We originally thought that as soon as we said this, you would have to recall the things in your dreams, and then ...... Anyway, at least there will be a little uncomfortable reaction, but why don't you have any reaction. ”

I couldn't help but laugh: "What kind of reaction can you have?" Shaking like in a dream? But speaking of which, the things I dreamed about didn't make me feel particularly horrible, nor did they cause me much discomfort. There should be other reasons for the trembling. I'm going to stay up tonight and see what happens if I don't go to bed before 12 a.m. ”

Liang Houzai immediately replied to me: "In that case, you will see visions, and at twelve o'clock in the night, my black persimmons will not be able to stop these visions." Brother Dao, you better sleep honestly, if you see too many illusions, you won't be able to tell which one is an illusion and which one is reality. ”

Not to mention seeing such an illusion, just having such a dream, I am now a little unable to distinguish between reality and dreams, those dreams are so real, I still remember the touch from my fingertips when I pressed the remote control button in my dream.
