I don't know how long I slept, Xia Qiu's mind gradually cleared up. She struggled to open her eyes, and found that she was still lying where she had been, with no strength at all, and after many attempts, she finally managed to get up.

Looking around the room, she always felt that something was wrong, she still clearly remembered the situation in the room before she lay down, at that time the room was still in a mess, books and items were still scattered on the floor, but now the room is different, everything is well placed on the shelves, did someone tidy it up when she fell asleep? This abnormal feeling made her body surge with an inexplicable fear, although her feet were still soft, but she couldn't care so much anymore, she just wanted to see how the others were doing in the outhouse.

She leaned against the wall and walked to the outside room, where she found that the furnishings were very neat and spotless. And Qianqi, Fenghuo and Ouyang Hongye were all gone, at this time her body was already a little more flexible than just now, she walked to the platform outside the house, and she couldn't find Ouyang Xiaoleng and Mochiyue, in a hurry, she looked around from the platform, but she couldn't find them anywhere.

She tried to shout their names out loud, but she couldn't make a sound in her throat, and it was only then that she realized that it was night when she fell asleep, but now it was daytime. What's going on here? Where did everyone else go? She didn't feel like she had slept for so long, and she didn't believe that they would leave her! She was thinking about these questions, but she saw a black cloud of smoke appear in the distance in the air, which was like a dark cloud flying at a low altitude, and more like ink that had just dripped into the water, and as soon as it was slowly released in the water, it condensed again, and then released again, and so it repeated in her direction, and in the blink of an eye, it was in front of her.

She didn't have time to dodge, and just when she thought she was about to be surrounded by this black cloud, the black shadow passed through her body as if she didn't exist, and only felt a cool breeze blowing. She hurriedly turned around and saw that the black shadow was rapidly transforming into a human form in the bird's house, and only then did she realize that the inky black smoke she had seen just now was the person who had attacked her and was suspected to be called Blackfall by Qingyun's subordinates. Was this her dream? She didn't understand why she was dreaming of this person, but she had a gut that told her it wasn't a dream.

When she was sure that the man who seemed to be Blackfall didn't feel her presence at all, she relented and began to observe his every move, he dusted off his black cloak, then picked up the teapot from the low table, poured a full cup, took it to his lips and drank it all, then poured another full cup, and drank three cups in a row, as if he had come from somewhere.

When he put down the cup and walked to the back room, Xia Qiu also followed in, and saw him pick up a book from the shelf, sit on the chair next to him and quickly flip through it, she leaned over to see what he was reading, but unfortunately the words on the book were like symbols, and she didn't recognize any of them, but some of them she seemed to have seen in Wangcheng Yongchuan. The book looked very old, she guessed that it was left by the former lord of Zangquetai, the man flipped through it for a while and frowned, closed the book, it seemed that he didn't find what he needed in that book, he put the book back on the shelf, and took another one to look at. After turning over many books like this, his eyes were fixed on a black book, and he spent a long time reading the book, until there was a sound from outside, and he closed the book, and a black wolf walked in slowly.

It said after bowing respectfully to him in a fully anthropomorphic motion. "Chief, as predicted by Lord Qingyun, the people in the royal city are heading in this direction, and it is estimated that they will arrive here at night, please leave as soon as possible, so as not to attract the attention of Lord Qingyun."

After hearing this, he asked, "I know, you go back first, I will leave here later and return to Lord Qingyun, and besides, I don't know about what Lord Qingyun and the others are doing here?" ”

"Yes, don't worry! That subordinate retreated first!" The black wolf bowed his head deeply, and then left the house backwards.

After the black wolf left, he looked at the black book in his hand with reluctance, Xia Qiu also took the opportunity to do his best to remember the shape of several symbols on the cover of the book, and then he hesitated to stuff the book into the pocket on the inside of his cloak. The next scene seems to be the reason why they came to this room as a mess, deliberately disguised as if it had been uninhabited, he threw all the contents of the shelves to the floor, and destroyed as much as possible along with the furniture in the room, so that the room outside looked cluttered, and then he reviewed the room again, made sure that there were no omissions, and left in the dust.

Xia Qiu tried to follow him, because she thought that as long as she followed him, she might be able to know where Qingyun was hiding, but as soon as she followed him out of the outhouse, and wanted to fly away from the platform with him, she was pulled back by a mysterious force, which was like an exhaust fan, spinning and pulling her back to the inner room where she had been lying, and she also lost consciousness at the same moment.

When she opened her eyes again, she found a pair of gray-blue pupils looking at her, and Ouyang Xiaoleng was lying on the ground not far from her, not even covering a blanket. As soon as he saw her wake up, he first turned his face unnaturally to the side, and then reacted to the fact that it seemed even more awkward to do so, and he turned it again, with a kind of tenderness on his face that was rarely seen in his life, and the two of them stared at each other quietly without speaking.

This subtlety couldn't help but make her heart move, but then she began to suspect that it was just another dream of hers, after all, everything in front of her was a little unreal. She reached out to his face, and he looked at her in surprise, but let her hand caress his cheek. She felt his temperature, and looked at the ground behind him, which still looked as cluttered as she had come, and she was sure that she was back in the real world.

However, the beauty in front of her was instantly shattered by everything she had just experienced, this was not the first time she felt as if her soul had left her body, she had a similar experience in the Yongchuan Forest before, it was like a dream, her soul seemed to travel into another time and space, and the feeling of depression and fear suffocated her.

Ouyang Xiaoleng saw her uneasiness, sat up and rubbed her eyes that were slightly aching because she hadn't slept all night, looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I had a strange dream...... Maybe it's not a dream, I don't know if I should talk to Momiji or not! ”

Xia Qiu also sat up, unable to define what that feeling was, so she became a little incoherent, but she still turned out a blank piece of paper under the shelf, and tried to draw the symbols or words on the cover of the book she saw from her memory.

She pushed the drawn paper in front of Ouyang Xiaoleng and asked, "Can you recognize what this is?" ”

He took it and looked at it, and replied in surprise: "This is an ancient demon world script, similar to the oracle bone script of the human world, these words seem to have been seen somewhere." He thought they must have flashed before his eyes, but he couldn't remember where they were at any point, so he asked, "What else do you see besides this?" ”

Xia Qiu replied with an even more frightened expression on his face: "I saw the person who appeared in this house, I mean the person who appeared here before us, he got the news before we arrived, and left here in a hurry. ”

"What kind of people are here?"

"Most likely, it was the same person who once attacked me in Yongchuan, Blackfall, who had been reading the books that had been on this shelf before, as if looking for something. The last one caught his attention, and I couldn't read the contents of the book, so I just remembered the symbols on the cover," she pointed to the piece of paper she had just handed Xiao Leng, and then continued, "At this moment, a black wolf walked in from outside, and told him that just as Qingyun said, the people of Wangcheng were about to arrive here, and told him to hurry back to the place where they were stationed, so as not to startle the snake and displease Qingyun." ”

She tried her best to repeat the words she heard in her dream to Ouyang Xiaoleng word for word, he pondered for a while after listening to it, he couldn't say what the meaning of her dream was, but his intuition told him that this dream was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, and he believed that if it was just an ordinary dream, it would not make her so uneasy. He also heard a little about the Black Fall, only knowing that in the era of his grandfather Ouyang Li, this person had not yet appeared, and when his father Ouyang Xueye was in charge of the demon world, he suddenly became the general of Qingyun, he had a prohibitive speed, a big knife that was enough to cut everything, and an unknown mysterious origin, in short, a mysterious character. Unlike Qingyun's other subordinates, he never tortures and insults those who have lost to him, and he gives enough respect to even his enemies. No one can figure out the details of him, his strength, speed, and fighting style are extremely different, unlike any demon, even Lord Yong and the other elders of the demon world can't tell where he comes from.

"Do you think I should tell Momiji about this? Wouldn't it be a bit of a fuss? Maybe it's just a dream. Xia Qiu expressed her concerns and uneasiness.

"Did they mention where Qingyun is stationed?" He was in no hurry to answer his question, and even if he wasn't sure, he pressed for it with a glimmer of hope.

She replied with some frustration: "No, they didn't say, I wanted to go with them, but as soon as I left the house, it was as if I had been dragged back by some force, and then I didn't know anything." ”

"I think I should talk to Momiji because it sounds like a lucid dream."

Ouyang Xiaoleng felt that Xia Qiu's description was very similar to a lucid dream, but he had never heard of a lucid dream that could tell what was happening at different moments in the same space

"What is lucid dreaming?" Xia Qiu heard another word that was quite unfamiliar to her.

"Lucid dreaming is also called soul separation, that is, dreams made when the consciousness is awake, the dreamer will be very clear that he is in a dream, can think normally, a small number of people in the lucid dream thinking will be more agile than usual, fewer people can do whatever they want in the lucid dream, create what they want, see the person they want to see." Ouyang Xiaoleng explained.
