Chapter 2: Dreams

Shu Yao looked at Fang Li, genuinely feeling incomprehensible, but helpless. At the same time, she didn't think about things so simply, because Huang Jun is not a reckless person, since Huang Jun is willing to come forward and bring her over, it means that there must be some unknown things in her, this is Shu Yao's experience from dealing with Huang Jun countless times, so Shu Yao didn't stop anything immediately, but said: "So, can you tell me, what did you see in that dream?" ”

Fang Li looked at Huang Jun, and then at Shu Yao, Huang Jun seemed to understand what she meant, and immediately said: "Miss Shu, you can completely trust, if she can't believe it, you won't have anyone to believe."

Fang Li nodded, as if she had finally made up her mind, and said, "That dream, in fact, I'm not sure if it's a dream, anyway, there is such a thing in my memory." I remember when I was young, about eight years old, one day, I went to my grandmother's house with my parents, when I was a child, my family lived in the countryside, from my house to my grandmother's house, we had to walk through several mountains, but at that time we were used to walking so many ways to visit relatives, and the environment at that time was not as good as now. I also remember that time very clearly, I got up in the morning and walked with my parents, and when I was tired of walking, they hugged me, and according to the itinerary, we should have arrived at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Shu Yao said: "Wait, I didn't understand a little, didn't you say that you were in a dream?" Why don't you start with sleeping, could it be that you had this dream on the way to visit relatives? ”

Fang Li said: "That's the problem, I said, I'm not sure if it's a dream, but now when I talk about it, others say it's a dream, and even my parents say it's a dream, but I remember it very clearly, I don't know if it's a dream, I just want to tell what I remember."

Shu Yao nodded and said, "Okay, you go on"

Fang Li said: "Thank you, I remember that day was a sunny day, well, it was a sunny day at first, we were in a good mood, but later, when we walked, we got lost"

Shu Yao said: "Lost? How can you get lost? Aren't you familiar with that path? It stands to reason that I should have gone many times."

Fang Li said: "Yes, who said no, now I think about it and feel strange, why did I get lost, but at that time I was lost, after I got lost, my mother was not in a hurry at first, because she was very familiar with that road, she told me that she could go out after a few turns, but then she turned around, and it was dark, no, I can't say if it was dark, anyway, it was suddenly dark, it seemed that just a while ago it was full of sun, and now it is dark."

Shu Yao smiled helplessly: "I now begin to believe that you are indeed a dream."

Fang Li said: "To tell you the truth, now that I think about it, I began to think that it should be a dream, but at that time, or even now, I sometimes feel that it was not a dream, but what I really experienced, when it was suddenly dark, we were in the mountains again, my mother and father had no choice, we tried many roads, but we didn't go out, and then, and then my father said that he went to the front to explore the way."

Shu Yao said: "So, your father left you alone and went to explore the way, right?" ”

Fang Li said: "Yes, now that I think about it, it was indeed like that, but this time, I didn't come back."

Shu Yao said: "Didn't come back?" So, what's going on? ”

Fang Li said: "I don't know, I don't know what happened until now, it seems that from that moment on, things have become a little weird, my mother held me in the mountains for I don't know how long, but the sky is getting darker and darker, there seems to be no sign of improvement, and then my mother couldn't help it, so she hugged me and started to walk a new road, at that time there were only two of us, we were tired and afraid, at this time, just in front of us, someone was calling us"

Shu Yao said, "Someone is calling you? Who's that? ”

Fang Li said: "I don't know, that person shouted my mother's name, I don't know who else knows my mother's name, at first I thought it was my father, but now that I think about it, the voice doesn't seem to be like it, but my mother also heard that something was wrong, so she put me down, and then walked forward slowly, tentatively responding to that person's shout."

Shu Yao said: "So, it was your mother who put you down and walked forward alone, right?" But why did she do that? In such an environment, how can she put you down at ease? ”

Fang Li said: "Thinking about it now, it may be that she feels that she is not sure about that voice at all, but she wants to take a look, so she put me down, and she wants to go and see what happened."

Shu Yao said: "It can only be explained in this way, then, what happened later?" ”

Fang Li said: "Later? Then my mother never came back, I waited alone for a long time, and they didn't come back."

Shu Yao said: "Didn't you come back?" You must have been scared."

Fang Li said: "Of course, so many years have passed, I still remember my heart at that time, I was so scared, my parents were not around, it was all dark, I was the only one left, I didn't know what happened, but I didn't have any way, and then I couldn't wait for them, so I went to find them along the way I came, I walked forward, but they disappeared without a trace, and I didn't see anyone." I didn't have any other ideas at the time, I just wanted to find a way out as soon as possible."

Shu Yao said: "Obviously, that kind of situation is too difficult for a little girl, so, what did you do later?" ”

Fang Li said: "Of course, as you said, I couldn't find it alone, and I didn't find my way back, but at this time, I found that there was a fire in front of me, and there was a large group of people surrounding there, shouting something.

Shu Yao said: "Is there anyone in there?" What are they doing? ”

Fang Li said: "I don't know what they are doing, but they are dressed very strangely, they have red ropes tied on their heads, and they are dancing in their shirts, I don't know at the time, but now that I think about it, it should be a sacrifice, but I don't understand what they said at all, but I was very happy at the time, because I finally saw people, and I wanted to ask them to help me find my parents."

Shu Yao said, "And then you broke in?" ”

Fang Li said: "Yes, I originally planned to do that, but before I could make a move, I was hugged by a person, and then I wanted to scream, but he covered my mouth, and ran backwards, I watched the group of people getting farther and farther away from me, I couldn't see who was holding me, I just knew that the man was very strong, at this time, I was still struggling, and I wanted to move forward, but I saw a more terrifying scene"

Shu Yao said: "You, what did you see?" ”

Fang Li said: "I saw in front of me, in the middle of the group, there was a skull, a very small skeleton jumped up, it seemed to see me, it seemed very excited, and kept chasing me, I saw it at the time, immediately stopped screaming, then I hoped that the person behind would run as far as possible."

Shu Yao said: "A skull? Well, this kind of thing exists in some cult sacrifices, but how can this kind of thing be touched by you, and how did you escape at that time? ”

Fang Li said: "That person hugged me, ran very fast, at first I could see the skeleton chasing behind, but when I got to the back, I couldn't see anything, I thought, if it was just me, I would definitely not be able to run away, but fortunately, there was still that person, that person arrived in a place, it was in a cave, and when he saw that no one was chasing me, he put me down, and then I saw the face of that person"

Shu Yao said: "Don't tell me, that person is the person you are looking for?" ”

Fang Li said: "That's right, it's the person I'm looking for, that person looked very tired at the time, I don't know why he was here, I was very scared, he didn't say anything, just hugged me, you know, in that case, my relatives were not around, I was also holding him at the time, and I started crying, I don't know how long I cried, I was tired, and then I fell asleep"

Shu Yao said: "This is the end of the story? ”

Fang Li said: "Of course not, if there were, I wouldn't be here now, in fact, that terrible dream has just begun, in the days after that, anyway, now that I think about it, I don't know how much time has passed, that bone has been refusing to let us go, looking for it, and that young man has been holding me to hide, he has never spoken to me, nor said why he is there, he has not told me what place it is, he has not said anything, I have not asked, in fact, I was scared silly at the time, I don't remember asking."

Shu Yao said: "Wait, you mean, you don't know anything about that young man's identity now, right?" ”

Fang Li said: "Of course, how do I know, I was very scared at the time, I knew to run for my life, that skull, there was only one head, it was very terrifying, I thought I was about to die, how could I have time to ask this"

Shu Yao seemed to think of something, but he didn't seem to be sure, thought about it, and still asked, "Do you remember the appearance of that skull?" ”

Fang Li said: "Remember, why don't you remember, I remember it clearly now"

Shu Yao said: "Is it purple?" It doesn't look big, well, it's about the size of a fist, but it moves very quickly, does it still have a hole in its forehead? ”

Fang Li opened her eyes and looked at Shu Yao incredulously: "Yes, yes, that's it, how did you know, were you there at the time?" ”

Shu Yao seemed to be preoccupied, and said, "That's not true, you don't ask so much first, continue to talk"

Fang Li said: "Later? The rest of the story wasn't really anything, but in a pursuit, we were about to be overtaken by the skull, and he had no choice but to lure the thing away himself, and let me run for my life, but before that, he gave me something."
