Chapter 1: After waking up from a dream
"Ahh
My head was a little heavy, and I had to take a shower around the couch. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The water washed down from the showerhead and made me much more sober and refreshed.
The sound of the tip of the pen swiping across the paper was unusually clear in the study, and then the words appeared on the paper with the memory in the mind.
This dream, since Ji Wan lost contact has been done several times, the content is roughly the same, an ancient cemetery palace, according to the existing historical records and archaeological data, that is the first emperor of China, the first emperor of the ages, Qin Shi Huang won the mausoleum of the underground palace.
Half a year ago, I met a girl by chance, she is very beautiful, and has a temperament charm that belongs to oriental women, which belongs to the object of my dreams. At that time, I was still not confident, and I had the attitude of trying to talk, but I hoped that a beautiful story would start from there.
The girl is gentle, understanding, and does not refuse to be accosted by strangers like me with obvious intentions. It's just a conversation, and we have an honest conversation. She said that she came from a very old place, and her name was Lirong, but I had never heard of it.
I introduced myself to Ji Wan, and it was a fact-seeking, unconcealed introduction, most of the actual situations that would scare the girl away, but did not scare Ji Wan away, she listened to me patiently, and smiled frequently to show understanding.
Of course, with this pleasant contact, Ji Wan naturally entered my life and became friends with me, unexpectedly, the next day, she checked into my room, her enthusiasm really scared me, but in the face of Ji Wan's smile and explanation, I could not and did not have a reason to refuse, she smiled and said that she had no place to live.
Of course I said yes and was hospitable.
I am a person with a dream, but unfortunately this dream is not easy to achieve, just like the kind that is obviously conceived but does not give birth, and even does not have a stomach, but Ji Wan does not mind, and helps me, dictates many stories, and writes them by me, sure enough, it is frequently turned into lead words in magazines, and it succeeds, for which I gradually have a small fortune, including the house where I live now.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, only three months later, Ji Wan lost contact, I searched all the places where she might appear, there was no shadow of her, just then I remembered his hometown, opened the map, but couldn't find a place called Lirong, to this day, I still have no news about her, and her disappearance did not leave me a trace, if the jade cicada is not counted.
I wrote a story about my dreams, which was published in a well-known magazine, and received extraordinary feedback from readers, who wrote to me asking for answers to all kinds of questions, but I could not reply to them all, so I did not reply at all, but made a unified answer with the help of the magazine, a total of four words - this is a novel.
Every time I wake up from this dream, I will carefully re-record everything in the dream, and I have recorded it more than ten times in my small notebook, including today.
Putting down the pen in my hand, I looked at the dreams recorded before, and compared them, I tried to find the differences, maybe in this dream I can find the traces of Ji Wan's disappearance, even if it is a little hint.
For a long time, I probably read every dream record, and the differences in each one do exist, except for the differences in my behavior, which is the difference in the situation in the underground palace, and I focused on the six bronze coffins in the Hall of Eternal Life, especially the jade seal on the bronze coffin.
According to legend, after the first emperor unified China, he engraved the wall of the He's family into a jade seal, and ordered Li Si to use the Yue bird seal book, imitating the dragon, bird, fish, snake shape carved "Ordered by the day of longevity Yongchang" eight words, by the Xianyang jade worker Wang Sun Shou, the jade seal of the country was made from this.
Later, I looked up the historical records, and there were differences, focusing on whether the jade seal was carved from the wall of He's, but the eight characters on the jade seal were the same.
"How can there be a jade seal on the bronze coffin, and what does this have to do with Ji Wan?" I had no clue and closed the book.
By the way, there is also a bronze coffin floating on the mercury, the portrait of Ji Wan on it, I took out my mobile phone, opened the album, and found the photo taken, Ji Wan's avatar appeared on the mobile phone screen, just a profile picture outlined by simple lines, looking at the photo carefully, while recalling Ji Wan's face, I am sure that it is her.
This is also a strange thing, one thing that cannot be explained clearly by science, it is obviously a dream, in the dream I took a photo, back to reality, and the photo really exists in the mobile phone. At first, I thought that I was either still dreaming or hell. But then it turned out that I was indeed in reality, and I didn't meet a ghost, and the photos on my phone can not only be browsed, but also printed.
Before entering the bathroom, I placed the jade cicada hanging from my neck on the table, which now glowed faintly pale green in the light. After checking the information and asking jade experts, I learned that this is Lantian jade, which is carved from the same material as the jade seal of the first emperor in the middle of the legend.
I watched quietly, not daring to touch it, more than ten times of experience told me that as long as I hold the jade cicada in my hand, no matter when and where, I will involuntarily enter the dream and fall into the underground palace of the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang.
The jade cicada is like a magical power attached to it, allowing me to travel through time and space and into another place that no one has ever been to before.
The jade cicada is carved very simply, Liao Liao counted the knives, and carved a general appearance. Now it wears a red thread on it, which was not there before.
The jade cicada was the only thought Ji Wan left me, and I was afraid to throw it away again, so I asked someone to make a small hole and wear it as a pendant around my neck.
Holding a mobile phone in one hand, there is still a photo of Ji Wan's relief avatar on the screen, and the other hand can't help but pick up the jade cicada.
With the jade cicada in my hand, my consciousness began to gradually fog, as if I was drunk, and it seemed like I was sinking into endless waters, and darkness was pouring in from all directions......
"Ding Dong, Ding Dong, Ding Dong Ding Dong......" The doorbell rang at this moment, like the sun, moon and stars that suddenly appeared in the sky when I was lost in the desert, guiding me back to reality.
I put down the jade cicada, shook my head violently, stood up, wiped my face with both hands, and went to open the door.
"Sir, this is your takeaway." A young man in a yellow uniform smiled outside the door.
It turned out that the takeaway order I placed through the mobile app arrived.
The rain is still dripping down, it has been raining for a week, and I feel that there is a lot of rain this year, as if I am going to finish next year's rain.
The rain on the glass forms droplets until it slides downwards and a distinct assembly line appears.
"Ji Wan, are you okay?" Looking at the outside, I asked in my heart, and I couldn't help but worry about Ji Wan.
......The doorbell rang again, and I didn't know if anyone would come to visit at this time.
Outside the door were two middle-aged people, I didn't know them, one of them was a man with a big mole on his face and said with a smile: "Hello, you are Qin Qi, we have read the novel you published, it is very exciting." ”
As soon as I heard it, I knew why they were here.
