Chapter 16: The Child in a Dream

What appeared in front of Gao Tianxin's eyes was a world of complete chaos and disorder.

The sky, the earth, the mountains and rivers are mixed, as if everything in the world has been broken down into countless pieces, and then they invade each other in order, and at the same time bear all kinds of irregular transformations......

He didn't even have a place to stay, his body involuntarily followed a strange air flow along the twisted trajectory and unpredictable, witnessing the constant jumping of space, and the chaotic flow of time nodes.

In an instant, the distance between him and Gao Tianxing increased infinitely, and Broken Wave and Tony didn't know where they were thrown into.

"It's the Lost Domain, the endless gathering place of the primordial subconscious, the hodgepodge...... And the subconscious that makes up this place seems to come from the reincarnation?! ”

What really confirmed the origin of this place was the fragments of consciousness, which flashed with the experience memories of countless living beings, and it was precisely because of the interlacing of thoughts and the collision of imagination that such an incomparably strange region could be formed.

In the world view of Inception, there are six layers of worlds, the top layer is the real world, and then there are up to four layers of dreams below, and finally the Lost Domain.

The term comes from a Christian term that originally referred to the middle ground on the edge of hell, where souls can neither enter nor go to hell, but wander to wait for the savior to deliver.

In Inception, the Lost Domain is independent of any dream layer and the edge of the subconscious outside of reality, but it still maintains a basic logic, but there are all kinds of unrealistic factors here......

Aren't those scenes of the heavens and races, the reincarnation of the race, the time ring, and the challenge of guarding the gates just the unique memories that only appear in the space?

In this way, the first curtain prevents the supernormal ability of space from entering the earth. This second curtain blocks the spiritual thinking of the reincarnated, consciously or unconsciously.

Because of this. In ancient times, the gods on the earth still had the possibility of "manifestation". However, in modern times, all of them have been reduced to the feudal superstition or more blind religious belief caused by the ignorant ancients' worship of nature......

Gao Tianxin sighed leisurely, took out the unequaled reincarnation and flipped it over, and sure enough, he couldn't use it.

This book is fundamentally an extension of the Book of Space, and since the Book of Space is the foundation of the birth of the entire space, the abilities of Tony and Broken Waves within the space can be attached to the two projections in the curtain.

Now don't say that Tony and Broken Waves, who are carriers of ability, don't know where they have gone, even if they are, Gao Tianxin can't borrow the power of space. Because he didn't have any experience of a dream journey, he couldn't cope with this scene.

"Forbidden Son, this final hand you have arranged is really perfect, it can contain almost all variables!"

High Heaven's heart murmured, and he wandered through the void and began to look for a safe way out of the Lost Domain.

There are two ways to wake up from a dream, or to return to the previous layer from a deeper dream, the first is the impact of gravity falling, and the second is to be killed directly.

But in this weird and unpredictable "space" of inception, he didn't dare to follow the example of the protagonist Cobb and others in the movie, who committed suicide at every turn. Nine times out of ten, the rules have changed, and suicide is really suicide.

However, at this time, there was no Gao Tianxing to restrain him. It didn't seem realistic to trap him based on circumstances alone.

Sure enough, the next moment, a big eyeball suddenly appeared in the sky composed of countless colorful fragments, which turned a few times and condensed on Gao Tianxin's body.

"Hmm!"

He snorted, only to feel an indescribable terrifying power in this eyeball, about to separate his body from his soul, and that gaze seemed to be deeply engraved in his heart, and he kept staring coldly.

In this state, he simply couldn't find a node to the next level.

"Powerful, but the strongest is the weakest, bet!"

Gao Tianxin laughed, his sword eyebrows were slightly slanted, his eyes were indifferent, revealing a cold and piercing cold air and determination, the human sword was one, turned into a Xuanyuan sword type, and went straight to the sky, approaching the terrifying eyeball infinitely, and threw it in an instant.

In exchange for an unknown existence that ordinary people can't avoid, Gao Tianxin does the opposite, which is not only the boldness of the artist, but also the understanding of the enemy.

Gao Tianxing, the son of the forbidden son, wanted to destroy the space, but he didn't do it for a long time, what was lacking was not timing, but time, so he definitely couldn't delay here and let the other party succeed.

Between the lightning and flint, Gao Tianxin has already shuttled through the wet clouds and low pressure, jumped through the cold mist, experienced the biting wind and bones, stepped on the ghosts of the world, flashed all kinds of environments, and finally came to another world with his feet on the ground.

An indoors, to be exact.

He looked around and saw that it looked like the first floor of an abandoned building to be demolished, surrounded by black beams and columns, with no walls around it, and the interior and exterior were connected.

The ground was covered with sand and gravel, and there was nothing but a few barely legible fragments of tables and chairs, and although the outside could be seen from between the beams and columns, the exterior was foggy, as if it were obscured by mist.

"Elevators? Oh, it's really a feature of Inception! ”

Gao Tianxin turned around and found a familiar old-fashioned elevator, opened the rusty door, and looked in, but the button was damaged, no matter how it was pressed, the elevator could not start.

It seems that certain conditions must be met......

If this continues, a lot of time will be wasted!

"There's no way, let's take one step at a time!"

Gao Tianxin flew down directly, and when he came to the street, he saw that the wide road was empty, and there were empty houses on both sides, some of the buildings had simply collapsed, and the bricks and steel bars were exposed to the air, like crooked dead branches, growing out of the ruins.

Judging from the scene, it is really similar to the city created by the hero and heroine in the original plot, but the area has expanded countless times, Gao Tianxin is going around in circles in this extremely monotonous ghost place, Rao is sword speed is galloping, flying for a whole day, and he can't see the end at all.

It's just a waste of effort to go on like this, and Gao Tianxin has no choice but to return the way he came, hoping to find clues from the dilapidated elevator.

This time, however, he had another incredible gain.

In the building, which was a little more infiltrating than a haunted house, there was a sound of Xi Xi Suo.

Got a living thing?

Because dreams are different from the real world. The Force doesn't feel anything here. Until the sound comes. Gao Tianxin was dumbfounded to find that a child was actually squatting in the fall, digging something.

On closer inspection, he saw that the child was standing in a very different place, with tubes protruding from the walls, like blood vessels and tree roots, and these twisted tubes were not growing on the outside, but were all buried in the walls. Formed in one piece, it looks like the skin of green tendons.

The kid was using a shovel to dig out the blood vessels.

Gao Tian was curious, but he didn't step forward, but hid beside him, silently watching.

After digging for half an hour, the boy dug up a small section, carefully held it in his hand, looked at it for a moment, nodded with satisfaction, and turned around. Revealing a delicate little face.

Gao Tianxin frowned slightly, vaguely feeling that this kid seemed to have seen it somewhere.

to his memory. It is absolutely impossible to forget anything, what you have seen is what you have seen, and what you have not seen is what you have not seen, so this feeling itself is extremely strange and has attracted great attention from him.

After watching what happened, the child ran out of the building, down a street, and in front of a sculpture.

In this dream city, there are a few sculptures scattered around, most of them are tall people, a few are more than two meters, the shape is very irregular, at first glance it looks a bit like coral, with curved outlines and uneven surfaces, gray and white, dark and bleak.

Gao Tianxin had focused on inspecting before, but he didn't find anything, so he had to give up, but this time, he finally understood what was going on with these statues......

I saw the child come to a statue of one meter four or five meters high, try to stand on tiptoe, and put the pipe that had just been dug up to the statue's mouth, and a strange scene happened, the tube gradually became smaller, as if the statue was devouring.

When the tube disappeared cleanly, the gray color of the statue had already attached a layer of lustre, and it began to melt immediately!

Tick.

When the viscous juice flowed down the body of the statue, and after a short time it was filled with a puddle of water, the extremely irregular appearance of the statue actually showed the shape of a human being, but it had no facial features, slowly raised its right hand, which had only four fingers, and gently stroked the child's head,

"What are you doing? Is he a human sealed in a statue? What is this place? Seeing this, Gao Tianxin suddenly appeared and asked coldly.

Anyone who encounters this kind of elusive surprise will be shocked, and the timid may have pulled it over, but this child is like a deaf person, and his whole body is not even trembling.

He narrowed his eyes, enjoying the warmth of the moment, until the sap on the ground returned to the surface of the statue as if it had gone back in time, and reverted it to an irregular coral shape, then he turned his head, glanced at Gao Tianxin indifferently, and was about to leave.

Gao Tianxin reached out and lifted his collar and said apologetically: "If you don't answer my question, I won't let you go, you are the only clue at the moment, I want you to help me get out of here!" ”

The child spoke, and there was no fluctuation in the crisp children's voice, and he replied mechanically: "I don't know." ”

Gao Tianxin smiled and said gently: "It's okay, just tell me what you know, such as what is your name?" How did you get here? ”

A sneer seemed to flash in the child's eyes: "Dreams all appear suddenly, no matter how hard you try to remember, you won't remember how they came, so don't waste your efforts." Also, you don't have to know my name, because I don't know either! ”

"You know it's a dream?" Gao Tianxin grabbed his collar and shook it, and put him down, "This is an interesting place, and you are an interesting child!" ”

This evaluation finally made a clear wave on the child's face: "Aren't you afraid? ”

"Scared, hehe, even you little child is not afraid, what do I have to be afraid of!" Gao Tianxin pointed to the statue and said, "Are you afraid of those monsters?" If they dare to show up, I can crush them to pieces with one hand! ”

"No, they're not monsters!" As soon as these words came out, the child suddenly became excited, "Without them, I would have been lost a long time ago, and I would have become like this in the end, so they are good people, good people with magical powers!" ”

"Magical powers?" Gao Tianxin's eyes flashed, and with a move of his hand, the Force Impact slammed a three-story building in the distance into ruins, "Is it like this?" ”

The child was dumbfounded, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's amazing......"

However, he reacted quickly, and he couldn't show weakness, and puffed out his chest childishly: "But...... It's still not as powerful as the most powerful uncle, but he's a strong man who can destroy all the Lost Domains! ”

Could it be that the statues in Inception are all reincarnated? Among them, there are also god-level powerhouses!

Looks like I'm not the first to wander here?

This thought flashed, and Gao Tianxin continued to induce: "Oh, then where is the most powerful uncle, can you wake him up with those things you dug up?" ”

"No, he can't change back......" the child shook his head in frustration, and then said alertly, "and I can't take you there." ”

Gao Tianxin raised his eyebrows: "Oh, what are you afraid of?" I don't have to hurt them! ”

The child began to sneer and did not answer.

Gao Tianxin still has some experience in coaxing children, so he took the initiative to change the topic by retreating: "Then you can always tell me what the rhizome is in the wall, right?" ”

The child hung his head and said sullenly: "Those are the dream chakras formed by the convergence of the subconscious, and for them, they are 'nutrition'. It's useless if you know, you can't absorb them, and for those who haven't turned into statues, the Dream Wheel is the most poisonous thing! ”

"I see!" Gao Tianxin thought thoughtfully, "Okay, it seems that you really don't know the rest, so I'd better go look for other clues, dig up those dream wheels that melt into the wall and feed the statues, right, I can do it too!" ”

When the child heard this, he immediately became anxious: "Hey, don't mess around, if you don't do it properly, you will be swallowed by them and fall back into the lost domain!" ”

Gao Tianxin smiled fearlessly, "So what, I came here from the Lost Domain!" ”

"You must not mess around, every time you fall into the lost realm, your memory will be forgotten to a certain extent." When the child saw that he was really leaving, he immediately stopped him and said urgently, "The most terrible thing is that in the end, you will forget the key information of the definition of the lost domain, and even the fact of forgetting itself will be forgotten......"

"In the end, I was in a trance, and there was no possibility of returning to reality, until my thoughts stopped and I became a statue?" Gao Tianxin continued, his eyes condensed, "This is not what you said, who told you that?" ”

The child was stunned and lowered his head.

After half a ring, he made up his mind: "Come with me, I'll take you to a place!" (To be continued.) )
