Chapter Twenty-Four: Dream Eater
Xiao An and I were trapped in a dream, and we couldn't think of a way to wake up for a while, and we didn't dare to go out while sitting in the car.
Anyone who has ever dreamed may have encountered a situation where they fell in a dream, and suddenly fell from a high place, and they suddenly woke up. This thought crossed my mind, and I asked Xiao An for advice on whether I wanted to try jumping from a height. Xiao An thought for a moment and agreed.
Although there are many small hills around here, they are too far away, and the nearest one is the seemingly abandoned building in front of you. Now that we were sure that it was in a dream, the two of us were much more courageous. After seeing that there was no one around, he walked back to the building. The building had four floors, and we went up the stairs to the top floor, but we couldn't find a way to the top, so we ran to the window of one room, opened the dusty window, and prepared to jump down.
As soon as I opened the window, Xiao An suddenly hugged my arm with both hands and said tremblingly: "Husband, look at the sky!" ”
I looked out of the open window into the distant sky, and although it was blurry, I could still tell what was happening in the sky: the sky was shattering and disappearing.
If you look closely at the sky at night, it is not black, but a dark blue or navy blue. It's with a sense of transparency. But at this moment, when the sky in the distance shattered and disappeared, only a lifeless and black patch remained. And the deep blue sky is still cracking, and then disappearing. Look at the speed of the change, it won't take an hour to get over our heads, and we don't know what will happen then.
I said to Xiao An, "Then jump down quickly, and you will be fine when you wake up." ”
Xiao An grabbed my arm tightly and said tremblingly, "No, you can't jump." We may have encountered a dream ogre. ”
"What?" I don't know anything about Dream Eaters, this is the first time I've heard of them. However, it is probably not a good thing to hear the name with the word "magic".
Xiao An continued: "When I was a child, I heard my grandmother say that the dream eater is a kind of devil who specializes in eating people's dreams, and legend has it that it has an elephant trunk, a lion face, a rhino head, an ox tail, and tiger legs, but that's just a legend. Grandma said that the real dream demon has no specific form, it is transformed by the obsession of the human heart, or the inner demon. Some people were healthy, but they died silently while asleep, and some of them were eaten by dream ogres. ”
"Then how to deal with the Dream Demon, did your grandmother say it?" I asked.
"Nope. Grandma said that only the dreamer can defeat the dream demon, but she didn't say how to do it. Because everyone's dreams are different. Xiao An added.
Although I tried to tell myself to be calm, I couldn't help but panic as I watched the sky slowly disappear in the distance. "Let's jump down, wake up frightened, won't it be fine!" I said out loud.
"You can't wake up if you jump, and if we fall to our deaths in a dream now, we'll die in reality too. The only thing that could save us now is for someone to wake us up. Xiao An said with some horror.
I don't know if anyone else has ever had two people go into the same dream together, but this is the first time I've been flustered, but I've thought of something that might work. Since my dreams and Ann's dreams can be connected at this time, then maybe we and other people's dreams can also be connected, so I just need to connect to the dreams of others and tell them to come to the room and wake me up.
At the moment, Ann and I are obviously controlled by dream ogres, so we have to fall asleep again in our dreams before we can connect with other people. I told Xiao An about my thoughts.,At this time, she was also a master of the six gods.,I can only agree with my idea.。。
We got back in the car, locked the doors, and I put myself in my seat and started to try to sleep, but I didn't feel sleepy in the conditions. So I got out of the car and picked up a brick, and asked Xiao An to smash the back of my head and knock me unconscious, but she refused to live or die, so I gritted my teeth and slapped a brick on the back of my head. There was a strong dizziness in the brain, and then there was nothing to be learned.
I don't know how long it took for me to wake up. Still that room, everything was the same as when I checked into the hostel. But Xiao An is the only thing missing, and this reminds me that this is in a dream. I hurried out to find someone.
