The journey to Wes's villa didn't happen to anything, and although the nightmare about the floating girl made him a little uneasy, he slept fairly well that night.

If you sleep well, you won't doze off, and if you don't doze off, you won't accidentally fall into a dream, and there won't be unexpected dangers.

-- That's the best result so far.

Because if there is a car accident in the real world because of his wandering mind, he will not have a good end without the body of a demon, although the airbag can provide a lot of protection, but when it hits a cliff or an explosion, he will definitely die and can't die again, when even if he may face such a danger, but he still took Caroline with him.

Out of the aftermath of yesterday's nightmare, he really didn't feel comfortable letting her out of his sight.

Although she is not a member of the Demon Reincarnation Squad, Freddy has enough reasons to attack her, which is a result that Xiao Lan definitely does not want to see, and it is also a future that he absolutely wants to prevent from happening. And at present, although he has not found a solution to the problem of being kicked out of the dream, since Caroline has not been attacked by Freddy, then even if she is attacked, it will only be the first stage at the beginning, as long as she is stopped from sleepwalking and not doing stupid things, she can be saved, as for the situation after that...... Let's take one step at a time.

It didn't take too long for Weis's home to arrive, and Xiao Lan, who had made an appointment in advance, also met Weiss smoothly, and the screenwriter was not too surprised.

"I know you'll be coming over today, Evans...... As for why, you should assume that I have some kind of prophetic power. ”

On the terrace with a nice view around the surroundings. The screenwriter of Ghost Street said with a smile.

It's a pity that Xiao Lan doesn't have much interest in this, and he also knows what this screenwriter's so-called "prophet" is, so he chose to get straight to the point.

"I'm not going to beat around the bush. Wes. Asked Caroline to follow the maid to make tea, and he immediately put away the smile on his face, "You will know that I am coming, you should know what I am going to ask, so tell me...... The progress of the latest version of the Ghost Street script. ”

Weston was stunned for a moment, then let out a long sigh.

"I haven't told anyone about the start of writing this script, Evans, you already know about it. Did you really become the Dark Knight as I dreamed you were? ”

"Maybe, maybe not. But that's not the point, there's really something strange going on. And I happen to know that the script you write is key. Xiao Lan didn't delve into this issue, he just emphasized the point again, "I don't reject being the protagonist, but I definitely don't want Caroline to be involved...... That's it. Please let me know the progress of the script! ”

on this. Wess sighed again, then frowned in embarrassment, "I wish I could have said that the script is progressing, but in fact I don't know, inspirations come to me like a nightmare, and then I will write them into a script, and besides, I'm just as dazed as you are." ”

This was expected by Xiao Lan, so he immediately opened his mouth.

"That would at least tell me how far the script is going. If I can know some of the key points, I will have more opportunities to grasp the situation. ”

"I can tell you that. That part you may not know. Wess didn't refuse this time, pacing back into the room and slowly explaining, "It's about a certain kind of entity, an unknown entity, very ancient, in different forms and times, the only constant is the purpose of its existence. ”

"For what purpose?"

"It's about killing innocents."

The atmosphere froze for a moment at this moment, and then Xiao Lan took a deep breath, "This is the progress of the script?" ”

"Yes, but it's nightmare progress for me, as far as the specifics are concerned...... You should have a more intuitive experience than I do. ”

Xiao Lan nodded, and then asked a more critical question, "What are the weaknesses of the development of the nightmare?" ”

"Sometimes, you can catch weaknesses."

This is an exciting answer, and the light in Xiao Lan's eyes suddenly lit up, "Find a weakness?" How to catch? ”

"Tell a story, make it up." Well, Wess's answer is fantastical, "If my story is wonderful, it's trapped in the story." ”

"Like a fairy in a lamp?"

"Yes, that's right. But when the myth is debunked, problems arise. Wess was a little uncomfortable when he said this, as if he had violated some taboo, "People are familiar with him, or they change their traditions to promote them, or they cause social unrest and are banned...... All in all, the story unleashes the evil spirits as soon as they are exposed. ”

"You mean, that's the essence of Freddy?"

Xiao Lan's voice was a little hollow, because he seemed to be about to touch the truth.

"That's right, a modern-day version of the Evil Spirit. For ten years, it was confined to Freddy's role in the Haunted Street series, but now that the movie is over, the elf's departure from the magic lamp is a nightmare, and the focus is on the plot I wrote. ”

"So when Freddy breaks free from the plot, he'll come to another era, into another form?"

"Not really, he seems to be a little used to being Freddy, and he likes this time and space, so he decided to step out of the movie and into reality."

"So, will anyone be able to stop him?"

"Actually, there is. There is a character in the dream, a bit like a gatekeeper, and Freddy has to pass that level before he can enter reality. Xiao Lan knew the previous sentence, but the latter sentence was seriously beyond his expectations, "And that person is you, Evans." ”

“…… I? ”

"That's right, it's you. Smith, who became the Dark Knight, was the first to defeat Freddy, and thwarted his plans one after another, and as the actor, you have the ability to become this hero, so he must pass you if he wants to enter this world, and it is inevitable that he will find your weaknesses to attack......"

Unexpected and reasonable.

――Perhaps, Chu Xuan guessed it early on, right?

The fundamental reason for the change in the plot is that he is a serious interferer. Thus replacing Nancy as the protagonist of this seventh installment.

That's actually not a good thing, especially in this movie.

He wasn't too worried about Freddy, but he did have weaknesses......

The reincarnation team is the backing. Each death deepens his vigilance, which turns into fear and increases the power of the ghost king;

Caroline is where he is, and he needs to be protected with all his strength at all costs, and if he is controlled, he will lose his future;

This protagonist is not easy to be at all, the only good news is that he doesn't need to worry about him not being there when Caroline is attacked, Chu Xuan's speculation is correct, the three people who participated in the plot of the deceased can project Freddy's power. But he's the only one who's really the gatekeeper.

The first stage of the nightmare guidance may be carried out casually, but if the second stage is to be carried out, it must be in his dream, and the third stage can only be entered from the second stage. In other words, as long as the first stage is not lost, Freddy will inevitably be present if he wants to carry out a deeper attack!

(Freddy, you're not going to succeed...... ）

And just when he was so secretly determined, Weiss's last words finally fell.

"To defeat the demons, you have to make another movie. I'll hold my computer and finish writing the script. But you seem to have become a true Dark Knight, so I can rest assured...... It's just a defeat, don't lose to him! ”

It's more like a prayer than an injunction.

As the author, Wes is no longer able to restrain Freddy's actions, so he can only guide the righteous messenger who has a chance to defeat the evil, but if Xiao Lan fails, the whole world will be in a nightmare.

That is, the burden he will carry is...... Save the world.

Suddenly, it seemed like she was going to be a hero, and Xiao Lan's expression was quite exciting. This kind of Hollywood hero movie rush is really helpless.

But in any case, the purpose of his visit this time has basically been achieved.

"Thank you. Wes...... See you later, then. ”

Solemnly thanked her, Xiao Lan called Caroline, who basically didn't talk much when she came back from making tea, and calmly walked out of this luxurious villa that was very suitable for relaxation.

Just as they stepped out of the room, Wes turned on his computer with a sigh, and the screen showed part of the script he had already written, and the bottom paragraph was shocking.

"Like the legendary wise man who instructed the heroes in the maze, Wes showed the way ahead for the knights who came to visit, and the Dark Knight who received the answer left with his wife, but what awaited them ahead was not the peace and tranquility of everything going well, but the despair that would pull people into the abyss......

In fact, this is the true prophet, what has just happened and will happen soon, has long been written in the script by Wes, who saw the future.

And now, the curtain is about to begin.

"Ringing ringing!"

The sudden ringing of the mobile phone interrupted Xiao Lan's thoughts, and he frowned slightly while maintaining a driving posture, but still took the mobile phone handed over by Caroline.

Then, in the moment after connecting, he heard a familiar voice.

"Xiao Lan, come to me, I feel that the situation is very wrong!"

Zheng ......

The background of the anxious words was the sound of glass breaking, and there was also the unconcealed rapid breathing, and a little sobbing in between.

Hearing these movements coming from the microphone, Xiao Lan immediately judged the situation, "I understand, where are you?" ”

And after Zheng Zhe reported an address, he hung up the phone and smiled apologetically at Caroline, and then reminded him not jokingly.

"Fasten your seatbelts, we might be in trouble."

Caroline had rarely seen her husband look so serious, and knowing that this was not the time to be coquettish, she obediently memorized her seat belt, and then she knew the correctness of doing so.

I felt a huge force press myself onto the seat, and then with a twist and flew forward, if it wasn't for the protection of the seat belt, I would have hit my head against the front window......

- Xiao Lan, he actually drove the car into the air at this time! (To be continued.) )
