Chapter 1: Dreams and Reality

Next Chapter

If it weren't for the fact that there were no wild beasts in the mountains, perhaps Wei Luo would have been targeted by the hunters at night when he walked around like this, instead of walking around the mountain road in a fat warm coat like now, quietly looking for his destination.

I don't know how long it took, until Wei Luo pushed aside a branch that was blocking the way and jumped off the stone platform, he finally saw the only light in the mountain forest.

It was the beacon light of a villa, when the night came, the mountains and trees seemed to be a devil with teeth and claws standing on both sides of the path, only that light guided Wei Luo's way, he shrunk his neck, sighed hot, rubbed his hands and laughed at himself: "Rich people just know how to play, and I built such a hidden villa in the mountains, so I almost got lost." ”

Wei Luo remembered that he had searched in the mountains for a whole day during the day, but he did not find the location of the villa, until the lights of the villa came on at night, and with the light as a guide, Wei Luo found the right place.

Wading through mountains and rivers to the mountains just to seek the liberation of the soul, and now Wei Luo is standing outside the gate of the villa, looking up at the outline of the villa, this retro Western European style villa, looks a bit like the castle of the medieval aristocracy, the hazy moonlight sprinkled on the villa's flower beds, those flowers and plants bathed in the crystal moonlight, for a moment, Wei Luo seems to feel that he is not in the modern society of the 21st century, but has traveled to the London of the 16th century.

"I just don't know, this master introduced by Yang Yang can solve my heart disease, alas......" Wei Luo sighed dejectedly, as if remembering some unpleasant past, his face was gloomy, and he pulled the copper bell outside the thorny iron door, and the jingling bell quickly attracted a maid.

She came from the darkness, with her back to the light, with a long black shadow on her face, although she knew that this was the light and shadow effect produced by the backlight, but Wei Luo still couldn't help but shudder, only to see this woman in a maid's long skirt come to the door, tilt her head sideways and ask Wei Luo: "Mr. Wei?" ”

It seemed that he didn't expect the maid's appearance to be unexpectedly beautiful, Wei Luo was stunned for a moment, and then reacted and hurriedly responded: "Uh, it's me, I made an appointment with the master, that ...... Can I go in now? ”

"Of course~" The maid covered her mouth playfully and smiled, opened the small door and invited Wei Luo in, bent down and bent her knees to invite him: "My master is already waiting for you in the restaurant, please come with me." ”

After entering the villa, Wei Luo's heart palpitated inexplicably, and he always felt that something was not right, he looked back and forth, the quiet front courtyard only had some flowers and ornamental buildings, and there was no one else except this maid, through the vestibule, Wei Luo followed the maid into the main hall, the brilliant and elegant pattern shocked Wei Luo again, when he sighed again and again the world of rich people, he suddenly thought of a question, so he asked casually: "Are you the only one in the villa?" ”

"Huh?" The maid stopped and turned her head to look at Wei Luo.

"I mean, with such a big villa, you can't finish the usual cleaning work alone, right?" Wei Luo improved his wording and reversed the subject in disguise: "I think you are the only one in the villa." ”

Who knew that the maid looked a little angry, crossed her waist with one hand, and said with a flat mouth: "It's not a gentleman's job to inquire about a girl's **." ”

"Uh, okay." Wei Luo really couldn't imagine what this kind of thing had to do with a woman's **.

A woman's heart is indeed unpredictable.

Behind the vestibule of the villa were two circular staircases, the maid did not lead Wei Luo upstairs, but walked directly towards the passage in the middle of the circular staircase, passing through a narrow path, to his surprise, the huge room in front of him with cold colors was actually the dining room, and the young man sitting at the head of the square table, not surprisingly, was the owner of this villa, and the target of Wei Luo's trip.

The young man in a white shirt and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses were enjoying the steak on the plate at this time, and when Wei Luo came in, the young man raised the wine glass in his hand and greeted him with a smile: "It's been a long time since a guest has come to my house, welcome, Mr. Wei." The young man took a sip of red wine, put down his glass, and tilted his head towards the seat next to him: "Please take a seat." ”

Wei Luo was a little nervous and sat down beside the young man, who raised his head and ordered, "Nana, pour wine for the guests!" ”

"No, no, I don't know how to drink." Wei Luo glanced at the wine bottle held by the maid, and said in his heart, I will make a big groove, look at the gold thread and foreign text inlaid on this wine bottle, let alone the whole bottle, I am afraid that his annual salary will not even be able to buy this glass of wine.

Wei Luo came here today to ask for something, how could he eat and drink other people's things again.

Seeing that the young man's meal was not over, especially smelling the aroma of the food on the table, Wei Luo was also a little hungry, he took off his coat, put down his backpack, and was hesitating whether to take out biscuits and mineral water from his backpack, he never thought that the young man seemed to see Wei Luo's thoughts, and the young man had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and said loudly: "Nana, prepare a pair of knives and forks for the guests." ”

"Uh, no, I'm not hungry......" Wei Luo swallowed, looking at the roast leg of lamb, creamy mushroom soup, and seafood sashimi on the table, even he didn't believe it.

"You're welcome, Mr. Wei." The young man cut off a piece of steak and put it in his mouth: "Eating will relax us so that I can do the work that follows." ”

Rich and learned people are different, persuaded Wei Luo to refute it, he took the knife and fork handed by the maid, suddenly Wei Luo's eyes stared, and he looked towards the young man's dinner plate, just now he didn't find that the steak that the young man was eating was actually raw, the surface of the steak was scarlet, every time the young man's dinner knife cut, there was a trace of blood oozing.

Wei Luo really couldn't imagine how anyone could like to eat raw meat.

The young man casually put a piece of bloody beef into his mouth, and smiled slightly: "Mr. Wei, let's start while eating." ”

At this moment, Wei Luo had just put the piece of lamb leg meat that had been cut with great difficulty into his mouth, and he knew what the young man meant by 'start', and when he heard this, he nodded, his eyes still staring at the raw meat on the young man's plate.

"Yang Yang is my best friend, since his friend is in trouble, I naturally won't let it go, it just so happens that I have the ability to deal with your problem, so you might as well talk about it, what troubles are bothering you?"

This young man is a psychological master introduced by a friend of Wei Luo, belonging to the kind of upper-class people who can never be contacted by ordinary people, and the group that can be qualified to accept this young man for psychological treatment is either super-rich or powerful and celebrity, and it is still the credit of Yang Yang to be fortunate to see this psychological master, to be honest, Wei Luo is very hesitant, he doesn't know if he will be blown away by the other party as a neurotic after he tells his heart disease.

"I don't know where to start, it's a bit counterintuitive, alas." Wei Luo put down the knife and fork, sighed, and said: "I am now engaged in IT work, the salary is not very high, but the pressure has always been very high, I thought that sooner or later I would have problems because of such work pressure, but what I didn't expect was that the problem was not my official job, but my side job - Internet writer." ”

The young man picked up a napkin and wiped his mouth, motioning for Wei Luo to continue.

"I like to read books since I was a child, dreaming of one day being able to write my own published books, when I was twenty years old, I wrote my first novel with the keyboard, but unfortunately I wrote several novels for two or three years, none of them were brilliant, these books I should all use the keyboard to practice words, and then because the work was too busy, the middle of the waste of more than ten years, but I am really unwilling to go on like this, so two years ago I started writing again, in order to innovate, I prepared a lot of materials, until half a year ago officially started writing, This time, I plan to save more manuscripts for publication, so I go to work during the day and go home at night to write novels......"

"Can you briefly describe your novel?" The young man propped his hands in front of the table, crossed his fingers, and looked at Wei Luo with deep eyes.

"Hmmm......"

"The theme of my novel revolves around the element of nightmares, which tells the story of the apocalypse caused by the concretization of all human fantasies, which descended on the real world." Wei Luo paused for a moment and muttered: "You may not understand what I mean, in general, it refers to the entertainment characters, mythical lives, and legendary characters imagined by human beings, appearing in the world in real life forms, and my troubles began when I wrote the protagonist. ”

"At first, I had nightmares every three or five days, and when I woke up, I didn't remember the content of the nightmare, I only knew that the dream was terrible, I didn't care about it at the time, and then I found out that my body had 'symptoms', I don't know when I began to become afraid of light, obsessed with darkness, always inexplicably irritable in my heart, like to lock myself in a closed room, and often do some strange things...... When I woke up one day and found myself holding a bloody hammer in my hand, I realized that I was possessed by a hellworm. ”

The young man stroked the knife and asked, "Hell worms?" ”

"Yes, it's the main character of my novel, the Hellworm." Wei Luo's face was terrified, and there was an indescribable tremor in his voice: "I never thought that my novel would really be staged in reality, according to my setting, the Hell Worm, it is a demon born from the evil side of my heart, and the moment it takes shape, it will devour my heart, replace me and descend on this world with the name 'Wei Luo', but what makes me desperate the most is not being killed by the protagonist I created myself, but ...... Doomsday! ”

"The appearance of the hell worm is a signal, the doomsday disaster will be staged in the next turn, at this time the world is still in the safe period of dreams, talented people, can predict the catastrophe that will happen in a unique way, after the rhythm of the end enters the dangerous period, the evil creatures in human fantasy will come one by one, and when the world officially enters the nightmare period, the rules of time, space, matter, and energy will all be disrupted by the power of dreams, and at that time, the world will be destroyed and civilization will die, Anyone who is still alive will be worse off than dead! ”

"Wait a minute, Mr. Wei, do you mean that the characters you created have broken through the limitations of the first dimension, crossed the realm of the second dimension, and directly entered the three-dimensional real world?" The young man frowned and muttered: "Regardless of whether the protagonist of your novel is real or not, according to what you said, the end of the world will soon appear in reality according to the setting of your novel, Mr. Wei, do you think this is possible, the future trajectory of this world will change by the few words you typed casually?" ”

Wei Luo looked at the young man painfully: "I know it's hard to believe this kind of thing, but I have no reason to lie to you!" ”

Just when the young man showed impatience, Wei Luo seemed to remember something, took out a mobile phone and handed it to the young man: "I have stored the settings and information in the novel "Nightmare", if you don't believe it, you can leave my mobile phone, and soon you will see that the plots in my mobile phone will be fulfilled one by one in reality!" ”

"Well, Mr. Wei, I believe you didn't lie to me." The young man casually took Wei Luo's mobile phone and showed him a regretful expression: "Although it will make our conversation very unpleasant to say this, your words and deeds are already very close to that of a senior delusional patient, I advise you to go to Qingshan Mental Hospital as soon as possible and turn yourself in." ”

"Even you think I'm crazy?"

"I didn't say you were crazy, just ......" The young man pointed to his temples and said meaningfully: "It's just that your mental state is not the same as that of a normal person, and you need a more professional person to treat you, of course, this is also what Yang Yang meant, I think with your wisdom, you should understand what I am talking about." ”

"Yang Yang?!" Wei Luo exclaimed.

He seemed to think of something, his face turned from stunned to gloomy with a visible amplitude, Yang Yang introduced this psychological master to him, he thought that Yang Yang really wanted to help him, who knew that Yang Yang actually wanted to let this master judge his mental state, so that he could be sent to a mental hospital.

This so-called psychological master never intended to help him deal with psychological problems from the beginning, but only wanted to send him to a mental hospital.

What is possessed by the protagonist in his novel, what bullshit is the end of the world, Wei Luo recalled Yang Yang's expression when he heard these words, the kind of trust on his face turned out to be deception, it turned out that Yang Yang had never believed him from beginning to end!

"You two are playing with me together?" Wei Luo only felt an evil fire rushing above his head.

"Yang Yang also cares about you, and proper deception is necessary." The young man smiled at the corners of his mouth, not afraid of whether the man in front of him would suddenly burst out and hurt people: "It just so happens that there is a psychiatric research and treatment center in my property, which is very close to my villa, so you can go and live there for a while." ”

Wei Luo suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, only to see the young man smirk and snap his fingers, and then the passages on both sides of the restaurant seemed to be alarmed, more than a dozen figures came out of the shadows, these people were wearing filthy chef coats, tall and stout, and their appearance was even more hideous, the chef who walked in front stared at the blood-red one-eyed, carried a kitchen knife in his left hand, and dragged a bloody hind leg in his right hand, leading a group of chefs to the restaurant and standing behind the young man's seat.

They just stood there staring at Wei Luo coldly, their noses buzzing, as if they were sniffing Wei Luo's scent.

"Master, what do you mean by that?" Wei Luo jumped up from his seat with a whoosh, took a few steps back, and distanced himself from the young man.

However, the young man did not answer Wei Luo's question, he pointed at Wei Luo with one hand and said, "Send this gentleman to the intensive care ward." ”

"Severe regional disease...... Wait what you're doing! ”

The chef carrying the kitchen knife got the order, and without saying a word, he rushed up and grabbed Wei Luo's hair, and the assistant chef who followed him found a strip of cloth and blindfolded Wei Luo, and casually pulled out the hemp rope that tied the animal and tied his feet, and then carried the hemp rope on his feet to the back door of the restaurant, Wei Luo was dragged to the ground by the help cook, his hands were frantically slapping on the floor, and he struggled as much as he could: "Let go of me!" Where do you want to take me? Let me make a phone call with Yang Yang, there must be some misunderstanding here! ”

The young man sat on the seat and played with Wei Luo's mobile phone, turned his back to Wei Luo, and waved his hand without looking back.

Good bye.

"Damn, you want to play kidnapping? I'll tell you, I said hello to my friend when I came, and if I didn't go back in two days, he would call the police! Don't let me go! Wei Luo was dragged into a dark passage by one of the cooks, and a moment later a light lit up in front of him, and finally the group of cooks dragged him into the ...... Kitchen.

The chef raised his arm and nailed the kitchen knife into the board, turned around and grabbed Wei Luo's body, pressed him on the trolley, and then the two assistant chefs took bandages and tied Wei Luo firmly on the trolley.

The dark kitchen and the eerie chef, when these two elements are associated with the word 'intensive care area', only creates a stronger fear in people's hearts.

The sound of mechanical gears turning came to Wei Luo's ears, and then he felt someone pushing him down a slope, and on both sides of the road, there were human weak wails, could it be that there were others locked up here? It wasn't long before Wei Luo heard a woman screaming in horror.

Poof.

After the dull crash, the woman's screams came to an abrupt end.

Somehow, Wei Luo remembered when he was a child, when his grandmother was holding a machete, and her old man chopped pork ribs with a knife.

Ten minutes later, the restaurant was re-served with hot dishes, and the maid Nana came out of the kitchen, holding a large cocktail glass, and waited for orders from the young man's side.

At this time, the young man was holding an old smartphone, looking back and forth through the documents inside, these so-called'setting materials', among them, the documents titled [Main Story] and [World View] all showed that the files were damaged and could not be opened, only the [Monster Illustrated] could be viewed normally, and after clicking on the [Monster Illustrated Book], the first one in the beginning was the Hell Worm.

No.1

The maid Nana came to the left hand side of the young man and leaned down, just when she saw the content on the mobile phone screen, she covered her small mouth and let out a surprise exclamation: "Wow~ Master, your ranking is in the first place!" ”
