Chapter 2 It is difficult to distinguish between fiction and reality

I sat on the bed, Xiao Li sat on a stool opposite me, Xiao Li said, "I also came this time by my friend to tell you something. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"What friend, what thing?" may have been infected by Xiao Li's sentence 'time is running out', and I urged Xiao Li.

"My friend said, you're looking after one thing right now!"

I looked at Xiao Li in surprise and said, "How do you know I'm looking up something?" ”

"I also heard from that friend that I don't know. But my friend wants me to tell you. Xiao Li's expression suddenly became serious, "This matter is quite dangerous. ”

"Whatever it is, Amin has become like this. How could I sit idly by. I clenched my fists and said, "No matter how dangerous it is, we must find out who is behind the murder of Ah Ming like this." ”

"Even if it endangers friends and family, doesn't it matter?"

I hesitated. I don't care if I continue to check if I'm in danger. But endangering the people around me is not worth the loss, and this is not the result I want. "Did your friend just tell you to say this?" I stared at Xiao Li tightly.

Xiao Li sighed softly, patted me on the shoulder, and said, "As long as you choose the direction, you will move forward bravely, but the premise is to protect the important people around you." This is what I said to you. And my friend wants to say to you that it will be quite dangerous for you to continue to investigate, and the price to pay may be considerable, but it is up to you to decide whether to continue or not. ”

I was silent.

"Also, don't trust strangers casually." Xiao Li said.

"When I was a child! Don't trust strangers casually? Is your friend a fool? I said, "Then again, should I believe you or not?" Because you're a stranger too! ”

"Uh......" Xiao Li was also speechless by me, "You are not a child anymore, you can decide this matter yourself!" ”

I smiled bitterly, "Who the hell is your friend, he should know me, right?" Do I know him? ”

Xiao Li didn't answer, he stared straight at the silver mirror on my bed. He didn't have his usual calmness, and his brows tightened.

I noticed that his face had changed, so I said, "This mirror looks like yours, right?" Where did you go with the mirror? ”

"Have you been holding this mirror all the time?"

"Sort of! I asked Feibao to take it to investigate for two days, and I have been holding it since then. Any questions? ”

"Did anything weird happen to you while you're holding the mirror?"

I thought about it for a moment and said, "Sometimes at night, when I look out of the window and vaguely see a woman on the street, is that a strange thing?" ”

"Not counting!" Xiao Li said categorically.

I was amazed by the neatness of his answer, "That's not it, what is it?" ”

"Have you ever been to some yin place with a mirror?"

"What is a place where yin qi is heavy?"

"For example, near graves, or in some deep mountains and old forests."

"Does Baiyun Mountain count? Last time I went with my friends to investigate Baiyun Mountain, I brought it with me. ”

"Nothing strange seems to have happened." Xiao Li said, "If I'm not mistaken, you are also the one who was chosen by the Heavenly Mirror." ”

"What? What is the Sky Mirror? What is the chosen one? ”

Xiao Li pointed to the mirror on my bed and said, "This mirror is called the Heavenly Mirror, which is a very dangerous item to ward off evil spirits!" ”

"Isn't that a contradiction?" I wondered, "If it's an evil spirit-warding item, why is it dangerous?" ”

"When you know the creation and purpose of the mirror, you won't think so. The mirror is ......" Xiao Li was about to say something that stopped. His expression suddenly became tense.

Although I have known Xiao Li for a short time, I have been in contact with him for a while, and I feel that his personality belongs to the calm type. But now he's suddenly getting nervous, which makes me quite uneasy. I've seen that look once. An ominous premonition welled up in my mind.

"Xiao Li, what's wrong?"

"Looks like I don't have time to talk to you anymore!" Xiao Li said, "Shun is coming!" He stood up and walked to the window to look out.

"Who is Shun?" I also walked over and looked out the window. The streets were silent, nothing could be seen, not even pedestrians or cars, and the dim street lights stretched all the way to the entrance of the village.

Suddenly, I saw something running towards us at high speed on the street. The thing was running on all four legs, and from a distance it looked like an oversized dog, with a faint green glow. The thing ran up to my house, kicked it with both feet, and in an instant it stepped over the two-meter-high courtyard wall of my house. At this time, the distance is close, although I still can't see its appearance clearly, but this silhouette of two or three meters high will never be forgotten for the rest of my life.

It was a scaly monster, and it turned out to be called Shun. The green light that I had seen faintly just now was reflected from the scales on its body. How could this monster with horns, a wolf's head, eagle claws, the lower half of its body being the lower limbs of a man, and its whole body covered with green scales come to my house? I was shaking and at a loss.

"How did that monster come here?" I said in a panic.

I saw Shun jump up, grab the water pipe, its weight broke the water pipe, and then jumped again and rushed to my room. I wanted to run, but my feet were too weak to run.

Xiao Li pushed me away with all his might, and his force was so strong that my feet almost flew off the ground, and I was pushed back several steps and hit the bed, lying on the bed.

And Shun directly smashed my window and rushed in to knock down Xiao Li. At this time, Xiao Li's feet were against the claws of the scaly monster, and his hands were against the scaly monster's bloody mouth.

"Remember what I just said." Xiao Li said with difficulty, "It will be dangerous for you to investigate further, but whether you want to continue the investigation or not, you decide for yourself." The path is your own choice, and I hope you can choose a path that you will not regret. ”

Shun's strength is obviously greater than Xiao Li's, and at this time, Xiao Li did not fight back with a snake trapping knife. He was flipped to the ground. Shun didn't continue to attack Xiao Li, it went straight at me. At this point, I had retreated to the corner, and there was no way to retreat.

I saw that Shun's bloody mouth was only a few centimeters away from me, and I was in a cold sweat all over my body, and the fear of death hit me directly.

"Ahh I screamed and sat up from the bed abruptly. I was panting, sweating all over, and my clothes were soaking wet. I hurriedly looked around, there was no Shun, no Xiao Li, the window was in good condition, not broken.

"It turned out to be a dream!" I wiped the sweat from my forehead and said to myself.

There was a bright light behind the curtains, and I walked to the window, opened the curtains, and it was just dawn.

When my mother heard me screaming, she immediately ran over and asked. I casually prevaricated a few words and passed it perfunctorily. Because it was still early, I wanted to sleep a little longer, but I couldn't sleep. The dream just now felt too real to me. It wasn't because I saw that the windows were intact, I thought I was knocked out by Shun, and then I was saved by Xiao Li. I looked at the mirror that was still next to my bed, and I was in a daze.

"Is it really dangerous to continue the investigation?" I said to myself.

I was distraught all morning, so I called Fat Treasure and Hotaru out in the afternoon.

We made an appointment at a nearby tea bar to talk about how things were going.

Fei Bao has not yet found out the origin of the mirror, and I said before that someone in the Guangzhou Cultural Relics Protection Association knows some things about this mirror, but I haven't contacted that person yet. And my phone has been repaired, but because I fell several times, it was badly damaged, and all the data in it was gone. Now try to do data recovery, whether it will be successful or not is still unknown.

I haven't been able to contact anyone here who helped me interpret the four words behind the mirror in the post bar of "Guangzhou Super Ancient History", and I don't know if those four words mean the Nine Palaces Prison Cow. What does the Nine Palaces Prison Cow mean? We still don't understand.

On Hotaru's side, she tried to ask Ah Ming what happened that night while taking care of Amin. But Amin still looked scared, and didn't listen to anyone.

We also talked about going to Baiyun Mountain again a few days ago, and the coffins, dolls, and coffin pits we saw before were all gone. Because we were hiding from Hotaru that day, Hotaru got angry for a while when she found out. Looking at her cute face that was red from anger, I was at a loss. In the end, Fat Treasure got it done, and he said that he invited Hotaru to eat chocolate cake ten times, and finally Hotaru forgave us, and said that he would not forgive us if we went to investigate Ah Ming's matter from her next time. I was relieved, I didn't expect ten chocolate cakes to be settled, and I knew that I could ask her twenty so that I could ask her out twenty times. No, I'm willing to ask her fifty! Ay!

Then I told them all about Xiao Li's resemblance to my father when he was young and the dream he had this morning. They all looked at me incredulously.

"The Xiao Li who saved you in Baiyun Mountain before is exactly the same as your father when he was young?" Fei Bao said, "Doesn't that prove that you were dreaming that night in Baiyun Mountain, right?" ”

"I've thought about this question too. I don't think it's like a dream! I said, "That feels too real." ”

"Your morning dreams are real! It's not that I'm scared to wake up! ”

"When my father was like Xiao Li, I wasn't born yet, how do I know what he looks like when he's young? And my dad died very early, and his appearance was already very vague in my mind. ”

"Dreaming is a deified thing, maybe the subconscious mind can make your father's appearance younger."

"But I didn't know that my father's nickname was Xiao Li, and I didn't know that my father used to work as a security guard. And I learned from my mother that my father's personality is very similar to the character of Xiao Li I came into contact with. ”

"Brother Jinke is right!" Hotaru let out a childish doll sound, "If you don't have something that you have touched, your subconscious can't create it." ”

"Then do you mean that your father took Doraemon's time machine to Baiyun Mountain to save you, and then took the time machine back? If I'm not mistaken, when your father was riding the time machine, because the time machine failed, he first went to the ancient place where Shun was, so Shun inadvertently came to us together on the time machine. I guess I'm right! ”

Hotaru smiled softly.

"You stupid, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand!"

"Is there a better explanation?"

"This ......," I didn't have the words to refute Fat Bao for a while.

Fat Bao suddenly showed a rare serious expression and said, "Speaking of dreaming. I think your dream this morning is more real! ”

"How so?" I asked Fat Treasure strangely.

"Didn't you just say that in your morning dream, Xiao Li asked you if anything strange happened when you were holding the mirror."

"Yes! I asked if it didn't matter if I saw a figure outside the window by chance, and he said categorically. ”

"I think he's referring to something else."

"What's the matter?" I looked at Fat Treasure in amazement, he seemed to know something I didn't know.

"Previously, when you were in the hospital, I took out the mirror and investigated it for two days. After that, I encountered strange and terrifying things. Because you were hospitalized at the time, I didn't tell you so as not to worry you. At the time, I didn't realize it was a mirror problem, but when you say that, I think what happened to me has something to do with the mirror. ”

"What happened to you in those two days?"

"Just now I made associations based on your conversation with Xiao Li in your dream, and I felt a little hairy. Listen, I think there's a ghost in the mirror! There was a hint of fear in Fat Bao's eyes.

Hotaru and I both looked at him in amazement.
