Day 1: Lisa's troubles
(It is said that some people like to jump to subscribe, although Lao Feng does not understand the meaning of jumping to subscribe, but here is a reminder, this chapter must not be skipped.) In fact, Lao Feng felt that although his words could not reach the level of interlocking, he did not have the habit of dragging out the plot of those "huge works" that often cost millions. It is recommended that from this chapter onwards, if you think this book is interesting, you must not leave out some important clues hidden in the chapters. (The title of this chapter is "The First Night", yes, it's not a clerical error, the next chapter is "The First Night.") The plot has entered the eighth week, and ** has finally arrived, and the secrets of the dream world will be further revealed. (In addition, as of the seventh week, the skill status of the Dream Man of the Tokai Team will be posted in the relevant materials of the public chapter, so if you are interested, you can check it.) Huang Zhi opened his eyes, and a spider was laboring to build a web on the ceiling, and its eight long legs were carefully stepping into its new home, toiling to manage its small living space. What a fragile life and a pursuit, as long as Huang Zhi is willing, he can easily tear this newly woven spider web apart, and even take the spider's life.
This reminded him of his fate as a dream person, who was also struggling to survive, even if he raised his skills to the S rank one day, he still couldn't get rid of the identity of the dream person, and he couldn't get out of the insecure world, and if he was not careful, he would be killed by the indulgent hidden behind the dream world.
It can be said that the fate of the dreamer is even worse than the web-forming spider at the moment, after all, the spider can still weave a web of its own, while the dreamer is trapped in the web that I don't know who made it.
It is conceivable that when the people of the East China Sea team are rejoicing in successfully surviving a dream of war, and when they are rejoicing in defeating the rebels in the dream of power, all this may just be a farce in the eyes of the authors who don't know where they are.
In the eyes of those behind the scenes who don't know whether they are "people" or not, people in dreams may be like ants, constantly struggling and struggling under their hands, but they have never been free from the shackles of the dream world for a moment.
This reminded Huang Zhi of something he had done when he was a child, catching one or more ants and throwing them in the droplets, watching them struggle to swim to the side little by little. When an ant is about to get out of trouble, he will drip new droplets of water on the side, and continue to pay attention to this "lucky" ant with interest. And that ant worked hard for a long time, and in the end it was just escaping from one drop of water to another, and it was under the control of others from beginning to end.
Thinking of this, Huang Zhi no longer has the ** to clear the eye-catching spider web, maybe his fate with this warehouse is not as long as this spider. In that case, why should this little life be deprived of its right to live for the slightest reason that is not important?
Speaking of which, unconsciously, more than two weeks have passed since the East China Sea team moved into this warehouse, and Huang Zhi has been in the dream world for more than seven weeks.
Every night in the dream world is calculated from 0:00 every day, so I just experienced the last night of last week, and this is the morning of Zhou. I don't have to go to work today, so my teammates almost always stay in bed for a long or short time, except for Lisha.
The weekends of the hospital are much busier than usual, and most office workers only have time to go to the doctor on weekends to solve some chronic diseases. So as a nurse working in the hospital, Li Sha has no Zhou Yu, and has always been like this.
Because of this, the poor couple hasn't had a formal date since they met in the real world for four weeks, and at most occasionally have dinner together at night. Because there is no such thing as asking for leave in the dream world that must be experienced every night, in order to ensure that they enter the dream world in the best mental state, they don't even dare to watch a movie together.
Li Sha should have been eating breakfast at this time, and while the girl hadn't gone out yet, it was good to say a few words to her alone, Huang Zhi hurriedly got up.
When I came to the dining room, I saw that Li Sha was no longer there, and there was some breakfast she had prepared on the table, as well as a note for Huang Zhi. "It's going to be a busy day, so I'm going to leave early. Remember to warm up your breakfast before eating it, see you in the evening. ”
"It's still a step too late...... Huang Zhi sat at the dining table in frustration, finally the seven big light bulbs were lying on the bed collectively, the two of them could have a chance to be alone, maybe they could have a kissgood-bye with the girl, and there was nothing at this time.
After an hour, the teammates got up in twos and threes, dressed sloppily and came to the dining room, and saw Huang Zhi still there in a daze, and the breakfast on the table did not move at all.
Xiaofeng couldn't help but quip, "What, still reminiscing about the good times in the morning?" What did you two secretly do while we weren't there? ”
"Smack!" A crisp slap sounded in the back of his head, and he didn't have to guess to know that it was Sima Fuqiang's hand.
"Captain, stop fighting, you're making me more and more stupid!" Xiaofeng touched the back of his head and complained.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't!" Sima Fuqiang expressed his opinion succinctly and concisely.
Huang Zhi glanced at his teammates with resentment, and replied with a smile, "She was already gone when I got up." ”
"Huh? Eat and eat. Xiaofeng had a disappointed expression on his face.
After breakfast, no one was too lazy to go out, and not even the fitness maniac Wanyue continued to temper his strong muscles as before. After all, in the past two nights, they had been running around the Dongzhou Continent for a full month, either marching or fighting, and there were hardly a few days of leisure. Nowadays, people in turn see the real world as a place to relax and unwind.
Everyone watched TV in the living room for a while, and Zhou Yue's daytime was basically a replay of last night's variety show, except for some endless serials. After watching it for a while, everyone found that they were basically out of touch with the real society, and they couldn't watch any of these shows.
Wuyang went to open a computer one step earlier, and was caring about his wife and son who were not yet a month old in the countryside through video chat. Seeing him like that, I really can't wait to pick up the monitor and kiss the picture of my wife and son, and I don't have the calmness and silence at all.
After watching it for a while, Sima Fuqiang also left, went straight to the living room to turn on his computer, and continued to study the topic of war history.
Seeing that the captain was the first to run, Xiaofeng couldn't sit still, looked at the other teammates and said, "There is a new action online game recently, let's go play together, choose your own combat skills, pk and see who is great!" ”
Zhang Wei looked at his provocative eyes, and understood in his heart that this kid was not his opponent in the dream world at all, and wanted to find a balance in the real world. "Come on, then."
Immediately, a group of people with the male surname in the dream were interested, and with Xiaofeng and Zhang Wei came to the living room, one person and one computer started the network battle.
At this time, Huang Ying was the only one left in the living room, and she casually changed a soap opera that was quite acceptable, and she couldn't stop laughing when she watched it there.
This new action online game has no concept of levels, it is a pure open-ended battlefield fighting online game, and points are calculated through wins and losses, which are used to improve the skills of characters. Judging from the setting, there is a taste of some dream people improving their exclusive skills and combat skills, so several people were quickly attracted after reading the introduction, and each established a game character according to their own positioning in the dream world.
Xiaofeng was obviously familiar with the game, and easily logged into his game account and called up his game character, a speed-type assassin. Under his guidance, several other people also established corresponding characters and entered the exclusive battlefield opened up for them by Xiaofeng.
After everyone was familiar with the methods of their respective characters, Xiaofeng finally revealed the true face of the big bad wolf and directly invited Zhang Wei, the strongest combat force of the East China Sea team.
Zhang Wei knew his little tricks, and he didn't care about it, so he happily responded to the battle. Anyway, in his opinion, it is not a shame to lose to Xiaofeng in the game, and it can be regarded as finding some balance for this depressed child.
Sure enough, before Zhang Wei really got started, Xiaofeng won a few handfuls in a row, and his tail was about to rise to the sky.
Seeing that his brother was being bullied, Huang Zhi knew that he was definitely not Xiaofeng's opponent in the game, so he simply looked for his best friend Wanyue to avenge his brother. The archers in the game move much faster than the hammer warriors, and naturally rely on kite flying tactics to defeat the waning moon without temper.
As for Xiao Qi, he can only find some NPCs to practice by himself.
After a few fights, Xiaofeng also had enough addiction to bullying Zhang Wei, and seeing that Wanyue was bullied enough by Huang Zhi, he simply proposed to play an intra-team ring match to determine everyone's strength in the game.
Anyway, being idle is idle, and Zhang Wei left him alone.
Who wants to play a single round, and the one who finally won the chief is the technical stream thief Xiao Qi, after all, the young man's ability to play games is stronger than that of many "uncles", so the weakest combat power of the East China Sea team has become the strongest in the game.
And Xiaofeng was unfortunately "cut his throat" by his opponent in the confrontation with Zhang Wei, which produced a one-hit killing effect, and was actually ranked third.
As for Huang Zhi and Wanyue, they sadly occupy the top two from the bottom.
After the "Civil War", everyone was not interested in continuing to choose the tallest one among the dwarfs with their teammates, so they left Xiaofeng's battlefield one after another to find strange players PK to see what kind of position their true level was.
Huang Zhi looked at the archer figure he was indulging in a little sluggishly, and it didn't take long for him to lose interest in continuing to play. A game is a game after all, and it mainly relies on gorgeous and exaggerated skill effects to attract the player's interest, and scientific things such as aerodynamics and the laws of motion are not taken into account.
As soon as Huang Zhi saw the kind of "continuous arrows" that could shoot a string of arrows with a single bow, this kind of thing would not happen in reality, and he would be depressed. And when he saw that the "scatter arrow" that shot five arrows at a time could have the same range as a single arrow, he was even more speechless. This kind of skill that violates the law of conservation of energy, I am afraid that Huang Zhong, the arrow god of the Three Kingdoms, will not be able to do this.
Not to mention that there are other skill effects such as "Tracking Arrow" and "Burst Arrow" that cannot appear in reality, and he suspects that if he continues to play this game, he is afraid that he will lose confidence in his "archery" that is already in the C rank when he arrives in the dream of war tonight.
So he quickly quit the game and wandered aimlessly around the internet. However, after browsing the portals and major forums for a while, he found that he was tragically detached from the real society, and was indifferent to some things that should be closely related to ordinary life, but paid more attention to some historical forums, because this involved the three main wars that the dream man had to experience.
Seeing that a morning passed in such aimlessness, his cell phone rang.
The number is Li Sha's, and the voice is naturally hers, "Hey, Shixin, it's me." ”
"Well, aren't you busy today? Why are you suddenly free to call me? While clicking on a discussion post on the forum about the life and deeds of Emperor Wu of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Huang Zhi asked casually.
"I ...... I'm scared! I encountered an incident. Lisa squeaked on the phone, obviously there was something unspeakable.
"What's the matter?" Huang Zhi nervously stood up and walked outside.
Li Sha's troubles obviously couldn't be explained clearly on the phone, "Forget it, I'm very unwell now, I just asked the head nurse for leave, and I'll be back in a while." I'll tell you when I get back. ”
Li Sha refused to say, and Huang Zhi had no choice but to sit and wait for her to come back, but his mind was full of thoughts.
"Someone insulted her? Patient or boss? When it comes to the girl's outstanding appearance, this is the first thing that comes to his mind.
However, he soon dispelled his doubts in this regard, and after working hard in the dream world, Li Sha was already a qualified female warrior despite her low combat effectiveness. A person who can be born and die on the battlefield will not let an ordinary person take advantage of him in the real world.
Even Huang Zhi found that his skills were much stronger than before, although there was still a certain gap between him and in the dream world, he was really much stronger than ordinary people. He even considered finding an opportunity to find an archery club one day to see if his "archery" ability in reality could be better than the average person.
ruled out the possibility of being bullied, that can only be another problem, "It is estimated that I was wronged, and it is estimated that it is because the dream world is too tired, so it is easy to wander when I am working, and I am criticized by my boss." ”
Count the time, and Lisa should be able to come back by lunchtime. Several big men in the East China Sea team are not good at cooking, and Huang Ying is addicted to soap operas, so he obviously has no time to cook. Huang Zhi called a nearby restaurant and ordered nine lunches.
Before lunch, Li Sha rushed back on time, her face was quite unsightly, and she pulled Huang Zhi and hid in the house. The teammates didn't notice the girl's expression, but thought that she was pulling Huang Zhi into the room to plan for something fragrant to happen, so they didn't bother them.
Hiding in her boudoir, Li Sha held Huang Zhi's hand tightly, and took several deep breaths before speaking, "Something happened!" I accidentally cured an emergency patient today! ”
"Well, well, isn't it the duty of medical staff to heal the wounded?" Huang Zhi didn't understand what she meant.
Li Sha shook her head vigorously, as if she wanted to shake something fearful out of her mind, "No, I activated the 'healing' effect. ”
"What! How can it be? Huang Zhi shouted out uncontrollably.
"It's true, I've been treating the wounded every day in my dreams for the past few days, so when the injured person was brought in the emergency room, I subconsciously activated the 'healing' effect. Who knows, it really cured that guy! Lisa sat on the bed, trembling with fear.
"What to do? Has anyone seen it? Huang Zhi's first thought was the consequence of using his skills in front of ordinary people, either suddenly pulling all the witnesses into the dream world together, or everyone being erased from this world together.
Speaking of this question, Li Sha was much calmer, "No one has seen it." I was the only one in the emergency room at the time, and the patient had been injured in a car accident and was already in a coma when he was brought in. ”
"So what, no one sees? Are you sure? Huang Zhi asked again uneasily.
"Yes, I'm sure!" Li Sha nodded affirmatively, "Realizing that I had inadvertently activated the 'healing' skill, I quickly left the emergency room, pretending not to know anything. Later, I asked the head nurse for leave and called you again. ”
Huang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and pressed the girl's shoulders heavily with both hands, "Okay, I'll deal with this matter!" And you forget about it, and don't mention it to anyone. Now we go out to dinner and you watch TV in the afternoon and relax. ”
After lunch, let Li Sha stay in the living room to watch TV with Huang Ying, while Huang Zhi quietly called Sima Fuqiang and Zhang Wei into the room and told her what happened to the girl in the morning.
Of course, the way the three of them discussed the problem was naturally to use hidden head code. Regarding this point, Huang Zhi had earlier told Zhang Wei about the dream world monitoring their conversation, and he also won the approval of his brothers.
"Obviously, what we had been suspicious of all along, was confirmed! The so-called 'reality' is actually just another dream, and we never wake up! Sima Fuqiang's conclusion is tantamount to a bombshell, even if there has been such a speculation for a long time, the other two are still shocked by it.
This is an irrefutable conclusion, last time Huang Zhi subconsciously took out the "Three Kingdoms Dream Card" from his pocket and completed a transfer of items from the dream world to the "real" world. And this time, Li Sha simply used an exclusive skill in the "real" world that should only appear in dreams.
All evidence points to one truth, that the essence of the "real" world is another dream, a dream that is mistaken for reality by the dreamer, who never wakes up from the dream!
Because both times were subconscious actions, they forgot the difference between "reality" and dreams at that moment, and did things that should have been done in dreams, thus revealing the truth that "reality" is also another dream. Because such a thing does not happen just once, Sima Fuqiang firmly believes that his judgment is correct.
This explains why dreamers who explore the secrets of dreams in the "real" world are still monitored by the indwellers behind the dream world, and thus punish them.
All this should be an illusion created by the indulgents behind the dream world, arranging an identity for all the people in the dream in the so-called "real" world, so that they can struggle between dreams and dreams, but think that they can return to reality every day to survive.
Just like a little ant swimming from drop to drop, everything is just a cruel game, and the identity of the person in the dream is that of an ant-like teaser.
The words of Gallic captain Sarkozy reappeared in their minds, "We are the playthings of this world, condemned to life and death!" ”
At the end of the day, I never woke up from a dream!
