I saw that it was already dawn outside, so I struggled to get up and wanted to buy some medicine. In just a few minutes of getting dressed, I wiped my nose three times. Tinnitus with earplugs. Needless to say, the discomfort is not to mention.

I said to myself with some annoyance: "I thought that after learning Taoism, even if I didn't live forever, I would be able to survive all diseases." I didn't expect to catch a cold after a rain. It seems that I am still far from ascending to immortality. ”

As I muttered this, I realized that my voice had changed.

I sighed, "It looks like I'm really sick this time." ”

The empty house was dark and deserted, and when I stepped out into the street, I immediately felt the summer sun really comfortable. The sun was shining warmly on me, and my illness seemed to be much lighter.

I'm carrying a big knife on my back and I'm looking for pharmacies all over the world. Suddenly, I saw Xue Qian and Mr. Lu wandering around. When they saw me, they asked, "Zhao Mang, what are you looking for?" ”

I pointed to my nose: "Find a pharmacy, I have a cold." ”

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "If you have my true inheritance, will you still have such a minor illness?" It's weird. ”

I smiled bitterly: "Eighty percent of your true biography is a lie." ”

Mr. Lu said, "Stretch out your hand, and I'll touch your pulse." ”

I stretched out my hand. While saying, "Can you do it?" Do Taoist priests also understand medical skills? ”

While touching the pulse, Mr. Lu said: "Yin and Yang Five Elements, medical skills and Taoism are inseparable. He closed his eyes and muttered for a while, and then said, "Your illness is a little strange." ”

I asked, "How do you say that?" ”

Mr. Lu hesitated and said, "I feel a ghost. Zhao Mang, have you been seeing the hell lately? ”

I smiled bitterly: "Isn't it hell to stay in an empty house all day?" I thought about it for a moment and said, "There was nothing unusual last night. But I had a nightmare that I was digging a grave. Does it have something to do with this? ”

Mr. Lu didn't care, and said with a smile: "This is a sign of hell, have a nightmare first, and one day the nightmare will come true." If you are haunted by ghosts, you will be in trouble. ”

Mr. Lu just said these words casually, so I just listened to them. I casually asked, "Is there any solution?" ”

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "This big knife behind you is not vegetarian. Do not worry. Take care of your illness for the past two days. Just don't go to messy places. What kind of broken temple ghosts and things, try not to provoke. ”

I said yes. Then go in the direction of the pharmacy. After taking two steps, I stopped. I stopped Xue Qian: "Old Xue, I have something to ask you." ”

Xue Qian's eyes fluttered and she looked very nervous, but she still tried to squeeze out a smile: "What do you want to ask?" ”

I said, "I didn't pay attention when I was drunk last night, and now that I remember, you didn't promise me." Do you want to live in an empty house for a month? It doesn't seem like the end of the day yet, right? ”

Xue Qian smiled: "Why didn't you arrive?" It's been there a long time ago. Then he turned and fled.

I sighed and whispered, "Forget it, I expected you to come this way." If you could keep your word, I wouldn't know you. ”

Although Mr. Lu said that my illness was due to the ghost qi entering the body. But I still decided to go buy some medicine. After all, Chinese medicine and Western medicine are two different systems, and the five elements of yin and yang don't work, so let's try chemical reactions.

I bought two boxes of cold medicine. The people at the pharmacy told me that there were sleeping pills in this thing, and that I should take it before going to bed, otherwise it would trap people to death. When I heard this, my heart was very happy, and I was worried that I couldn't sleep at night.

As soon as I got back to the empty house, I took a few capsules and slept day and night.

I don't know how long I slept. When I woke up again, it was gray, and it looked like early morning and dusk.

I sighed: "This medicine really works, I still feel groggy when I sleep until now, and it doesn't seem to have eased up." ”

I groped in bed to see what time it was. But when I touched it, I found that it was broken, and my broadsword was gone.

I was startled and jumped out of bed. I searched the empty house, but I didn't find the shadow of the broadsword.

My heart was pounding, and I had a sense of foreboding. I paced back and forth in the room, thinking, "Yesterday I dreamed that a ghost came to steal my big knife, has this become true?" I took cold medicine, slept groggy, and was succeeded by him? Why did he steal my knife, and what purpose was it? ”

With that in mind, I walked to the door and looked outside. I found the sky dark, like a dark yellow cloud. The street was empty, and there was only one person, slightly bent over, carrying my big knife, walking in front of him, wasn't it the little ghost I saw in my dream?

I thought to myself, "What's the way this kid came from?" Teasing me again and again, don't you want to die? ”

I walked out of the empty house and quickly followed. The two of us walked out of Huaicheng city and went to the suburbs. There are no buildings on the outskirts, only large tracts of farmland. These farmlands are unobstructed and stretch out into the distance, directly meeting the dark yellow sky.

The little imp and I walked one after the other in this vast field, like two ants on the earth. I felt the huge sky turn into a bowl and snap it upside down. Hold me here. I couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in my heart, and I wanted to lie on the ground and crawl forward. Let the low trees, the lush grass, cover my figure.

Fortunately, this feeling quickly disappeared. For the imp had stopped, and was kneeling on the ground digging for dirt. A total of every chastity died.

I looked at this scene and muttered to myself, "It's exactly the same as what I saw in my dream." The only difference is that this little imp has an extra knife on him. ”

I walked over slowly, unaware. I peeked into him, and he looked exactly like me, but he was much older than me.

I had walked up behind him and kicked him violently, grabbing the big knife in his back at the same time. He rolled on the ground, and I snatched the big knife.

The little ghost didn't have any anger on his face, but looked at me triumphantly, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Young man, why do you disrespect the old and love the young so much?" ”

I lifted the broadsword, pointed it at him, and shouted, "Who the hell are you?" ”

The little ghost laughed twice: "I am you." Can't you see that? ”

I was skeptical, and my mind was still confused: "Is there really such a thing as traveling through time and space?" Decades later, I came back on my own? I shook my head, "No way, it's absolutely impossible for this to happen." It must have been a trick played by the imps. ”

I was stunned for such a moment, and the little ghost in front of me disappeared. I looked around and it was empty.

I squatted down to the place where he had dug the pit just now.

It was a grave, exactly the same as it had been seen in a dream before. I remember that in a dream, the imp dug something out of it. Now I'm going to see what's down there.

I was digging hard when I heard footsteps behind me. I was startled and quickly turned back, but before I could turn around, I felt a kick hit me, and then my big knife was taken away.

I rolled over the mud and looked up in panic to find a teenager standing behind me, holding a big knife and looking at me with a surprised expression: "Who are you?" Why do you look like me? ”

I stayed on the ground and couldn't move. This kid is exactly what I was like when I was a kid.

I looked at him, my voice trembling a little: "Who are you?" How did you get here? ”

As soon as I finished asking, the dark yellow sky above me suddenly shattered, and countless huge rocks fell. I was startled and woke up.

I sat up from the bed and looked at the street lamp outside the door with some annoyance: "Why is it another dream?" What's wrong with me. ”

Obviously, it's night. As if in a dream, I pulled out my phone and looked at it. It's almost dawn.

I had been asleep all night, and by this time I had no sleepiness at all, so I went to the door and sat on the threshold, staring at the empty street
