Chapter 180: The Dream of the Woman in Black
The words fell, and Zhou An looked at the nightmare expressionlessly.
At this moment, still in Owen's dream, but the nightmare was stared at by Zhou An like this, inexplicably, and there was a chill from the bottom of his heart.
It is weird, without human thinking, everything acts only on instinct, and it has a strong desire to erase all living beings.
But at this moment, the nightmare's instinct told it that the living person in front of it had a feeling that made it tremble instinctively.
That's right, it's trembling.
Even if it's weird, even if it has an endless killing heart for the living, but at this moment, the nightmare trembles.
This tremor came from instinct, and even instinct made it smell the same kind on Zhou An.
This kind of taste does not mean that Zhou An is weird, but because the weirdness that died in Zhou An's hands is extremely powerful, even now, there is still an imperceptible aftermath.
The nightmare moved, and driven by instinct, it raised the knife and pot in its hand and pressed it towards Zhou An.
There are no flashy special effects, but this blow is in a nightmare with a powerful attack.
Nightmares' weird, seemingly innocuous attacks in dreams can also be amplified by him to a terrifying degree.
Zhou An looked at Nightmare's attack, and then looked at his empty hands, and thought in his heart: "I see, this is also where Nightmare has an advantage. ”
When you enter a dream, you don't have weapons, and if you are a person in the line who is good at weapons, your strength will inevitably drop a lot.
After all, when you can't use the weapon you are best at, it is equivalent to throwing aside all the most powerful attacks.
"Without a knife, can't I kill you?" Zhou An sneered.
There is a good saying, who said that you can't stab someone without a gun?
Zhou An didn't have a knife, but he didn't necessarily use a knife to solve people's knife methods.
Like what......
As Zhou An stretched out his hand, above his right hand, a long knife composed of water was condensed.
Level 5 skill, water resistance.
"It seems that dreams can't be completely controlled by you, and there are things you can't control." Zhou An said lightly.
The book given by the emperor mentioned that when the nightmare has overwhelming power, then in the dream, people have no ability to resist, just fish on the chopping board, to be slaughtered.
Take Owen, for example.
If the team is evenly matched, then in the dream world, the nightmare will have more advantages, and this advantage will often reach a winning result in the end.
But if the Nightmare is in a vulnerable position, let's say now, there is only so much that the Nightmare can control.
In the dream realm, it is true that he can't bring in real things, but it doesn't mean that Zhou An can't use his skills.
Water is invisible and difficult to control, but Zhou An is a person who resists water.
"Although this water knife has lost the sharpness and bonus of the Cold Marrow Knife, it is enough." Zhou Andao.
As he uttered these words, the Nightmare offensive arrived.
Zhou An waved a knife lightly, and the sword technique of Ku Ding was displayed by him.
The next moment, the terrifying sword light exploded in the dream.
The dark blue sword light carried the flow of water, and swept away towards the flaws seen in the hundreds of scrolls.
In the blink of an eye, the dark blue sword light seemed to be in a no-man's land, not only defeating the Nightmare's attack, but even penetrating out of the Nightmare's body.
The Nightmare's attack stopped, and even its body stood as straight as a piece of wood.
The water knife in Zhou An's hand dispersed, and everything returned to calm.
The next moment, Nightmare's body was falling apart like sand that had met water.
"If it's this intensity, it's not enough." Zhou An said lightly.
As Zhou An said this, the nightmare in front of him completely turned into ashes in a gust of wind.
On the ground, Owen was holding his head, trembling in pain, and the middle two just now had disappeared.
The surrounding scenery is changing, from clarity to blur, like an oil painting that has been splashed with water.
Zhou An's vision was gradually blurring, and in the blink of an eye, everything returned to calm.
He was no longer in that dark, cold dream, but in the Suppression Division.
"Solved?" Hou Sizhou watched Zhou An return to normal and asked.
Zhou An nodded: "No problem." ”
Two members of the Town Division stepped forward and checked on Owen's condition, breathing a sigh of relief.
"My lord, you're fine."
Owen has recovered, but is still in a coma.
After all, it has been attacked by nightmares, and it is estimated that it will take a while to make up for the loss.
Zhou An said: "Lord Hou, if everyone who has crossed paths with me dreams are related to me, then the matter will be big." ”
He experienced that dream firsthand.
To be honest, Nightmare's strength is very strong, but when he meets him, no matter how strong he is, he can't exert his ability.
But if it were someone else's, it would be impossible to say.
Hou Sizhou nodded and said: "Don't worry, Lord Zhou, if there is a problem, there is a solution, and we will come up with a way as soon as possible." ”
Zhou An believes very much that Hou Si Prefecture can sit in this position and lead the entire state of the town and trick division, which not only requires extremely strong wrist strength and strength, but also has the ability to handle affairs.
The weirdness that people have dealt with, like a carp crossing the river, must have a way to deal with it.
And Zhou An also said before that if you need help, just mention it.
Now Hou Sizhou has not brought it up, which proves that he doesn't have to care at all.
This time, Zhou An also came to learn about the information, and solved a nightmare with curiosity.
The matter was also done, Zhou An naturally did not stay and said goodbye to Hou Sizhou.
After saying goodbye, he hurried into the house.
What Zhou An didn't notice was that in addition to being confused, the woman in black also had a kind of excitement, as if she had discovered something interesting.
——
From the town to the home, nothing unusual happened along the way.
As soon as Zhou An got home, he saw the little guy from the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, who was waiting outside.
The little guy had a large box in his hand and was looking forward to it at the door.
When he saw Zhou An, he immediately greeted him with a flattering smile.
"Lord Zhou, you can be regarded as back." The little guy flattered.
This is Lord Zhou, and he can't wait for this time to stammer.
Zhou An smiled: "I've been waiting for a long time, is this what Brother Meng prepared for me?" ”
Before, Meng Jiang said that he would do things well today, and it seems that what he said is true.
Meng Jiang's ability to do things is indeed high enough, and it has been done in less than half a day.
It is no wonder that it can sit firmly in the first place of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce in Fenglin Prefecture.
The little guy nodded and said: "What Lord Zhou wants, of course we will prepare it as soon as possible, here are thirty books prepared by Steward Meng, all of them are good things, and they cost a lot of money, please Lord Zhou smile and accept them." ”
Zhou An received it and said, "So, thank you Brother Meng for me." ”
The little guy didn't dare to look, and waved his hand again and again: "Lord Zhou is serious, you are a distinguished guest of the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, this is as it should be." ”
Or how to say that the bigger the place, the more shrewd people there are.
Although Xiao Xiao's status in the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce is not high, he can come over to deliver the things Zhou An needs, and he is also a close person to Meng Jiang, so he naturally has some eyesight.
He could see that Zhou An was in a hurry, so he didn't talk much, and he was familiar with it.
"Lord Zhou, there is still something to do with the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce, so the villain will not bother." The little servant politely said goodbye and left the street.
After the little girl left, Zhou An didn't have any ink, and dragged the woman in black home.
When he got home, he was ready to get down to business.
When the woman in black returned home, she began to become slimy again.
However, under Zhou An's dismissal, he ran to the chair to play again.
After sending the woman in black away, Zhou An also began to do his own business.
"Look at the book Meng Jiang gave."
The liver degree of reading 100 volumes is now going to be promoted to the agenda.
He had a feeling that when he had raised all his skills to level six, it would be the moment when he stepped into the innate realm.
Zhou An is now, not only for proficiency, but also for the growth of his own strength.
Skills are like external conditions, and the Qi in the body is the essence.
Complement each other, and no one can do without the other.
In the wooden box, among the thirty books given by Meng Jiang, there are not only exercises, but even important experiences in the technique.
Hengtong Chamber of Commerce has a lot of money, and it is not easy to receive so many books in Fenglin Prefecture.
"Open the liver!"
Zhou An did not hesitate, grabbed a book, and began to liver up silently.
Copying requires concentration.
In fact, every ability of Zhou An needs to be concentrated in order to have a harvest.
It's not that he hasn't thought about multitasking, but if this thing is multi-purpose, the proficiency will be gone, and everything will be in vain.
"Fortunately, things like paper and pens, the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce is also very well prepared." Zhou An picked up the pen and paper and thought to himself.
He stopped standing and began to silently get up.
When the brush was dipped in ink and fell on the paper, under Zhou An's concentrated writing, the smoke of proficiency came unexpectedly.
In front of me, a line of text emerged.
[Reading 100 Volumes +1]
Although he was no longer surprised, Zhou An was still a little excited when he saw the improvement of reading hundreds of volumes.
This is normal.
Even a veteran of the battlefield, at the moment when he picked up his gun and mounted his horse, he was excited, eager to be able to kill the enemy without leaving a piece of armor.
"Whole!"
For the Liver Emperor, only one word is enough.
Soon, in the dim room, Zhou An lit an oil lamp and began to go crazy.
——
When a person is serious about doing something, time will always pass quickly.
If you spend all your night in insomnia, it's like spending a long winter night.
But if it is used for liver, then Zhou An can't wait for this night to be longer.
"Volume, is unknown, not necessarily rewarding."
"The liver is known, and hard work will be rewarded."
"Liver is what people should do!"
A certain liver emperor who held the pen thought while holding the liver.
When the first rays of sunlight in the morning shone in through the window, Zhou An finally recovered from the state of the Liver Emperor.
Last night, he originally wanted to experiment with the growth of reading hundreds of volumes, but when he accidentally got on it, he forgot to practice the Holy Spirit Demon Body and fortune-telling.
But it's not a big problem, Zhou An feels that tonight is the right start.
"Take a break and take Xiao Hei out for dinner, otherwise she will make trouble again." Zhou An thought.
As for whether Xiao Hei recognizes this artistic name, Zhou An doesn't think it matters, because he just thinks so.
"Went out to eat." After Zhou An finished washing briefly, he was ready to call the woman in black.
At this time, the woman in black was still sitting at the chair, but her sitting posture was not normal.
Ordinary people sit on chairs, all of them are upright, with their backs leaning on the chairs.
The woman in black sat down facing the back of the chair in order to make it easier for her to swing left and right.
Since the woman in black was facing away from Zhou An at this moment, Zhou An could clearly see the outline below her waist when the woman in black sat down.
Zhou An just glanced at it twice, and then didn't take it seriously.
- I'm used to it.
But he felt that today's woman in black didn't seem to be the same.
At this time, the woman in black put her face full of taboo on the back of the chair, and due to the sense of oppression, it was heavy somewhere.
What made Zhou An pay attention was not these, but the woman in black had closed her eyes at this time, and her breathing was very even.
On that face full of forbiddenness, there is still a hint of a smile at the moment.
It's a very relaxed smile, like a sweet dream.
"Dreams? Dream? Seeing this, Zhou An was slightly stunned.
He thought of something.
To be reasonable, even if the woman in black wants to experience sleep that she hasn't experienced for a long time, as long as Zhou An goes out, she will naturally follow.
But now in this situation, it is obvious that the woman in black does not seem to have a tendency to wake up.
"Wait."
Seeing this scene, Zhou An's brows furrowed slightly.
He thought of something.
- Nightmare.
At this time, I fell asleep, and it was like a sweet dream, and now is a special period of nightmares, it is difficult not to let Zhou An think of this.
Thinking of this, Zhou An came to the side of the woman in black and reached out to touch the head of the woman in black.
The woman in black still had no tendency to wake up, and even because she felt Zhou An's breath, she arched her head into Zhou An's palm and leaned on Zhou An's hand.
With this stable appearance, Zhou An has already affirmed that the woman in black is definitely dreaming, and she has encountered a nightmare.
"No, she never slept, even when I was resting, she obediently snuggled next to me, how did she sleep at this time?" Zhou Anzhong was surprised.
But obviously, now is not the time to be surprised.
Zhou An knew that the woman in black must have fallen into a nightmare.
Of course, Zhou An still has a new doubt.
Obviously, the strength of the woman in black is undoubtedly powerful, and it can be seen from the wild path method of destroying a mountain by herself.
Don't think that the woman in black is stupid and sweet, that's just because of following Zhou An.
It's like those iceberg goddesses, not necessarily icebergs, but just icebergs for others, such as Ye Shuang.
The essence of the woman in black is a strange gathering, a weirdness, and a source of terror.
So even in a dream, with the temper of a woman in black, she definitely beat the nightmare every minute, and then came out easily.
Now that this scene has appeared, Zhou An thought of some key points.
"Looking at this meaning, it seems to be a sweet dream, that is, she herself is not willing to wake up yet, and she has not had enough." The corners of Zhou An's mouth twitched slightly, and he had already thought of the key.
In addition to this, he really couldn't think of any other reason why the woman in black couldn't get out of her dreams.
Zhou An sighed, and then took out the dream incense from the pink money bag in his arms: "I want to see what kind of dreams you have." ”
In fact, Zhou An was also very curious, from beginning to end, he was curious about the life experience of the woman in black, so now that he saw the woman in black entering the dream, Zhou An became interested and planned to enter to take a look.
Thinking of this, Zhou An did not hesitate to light the incense of falling asleep.
When the dream incense was lit, the next moment, the scenery in front of Zhou An's eyes changed again, and the feeling of psychedelic illusion appeared again.
After the psychedelic feeling disappeared, the scenery began to change gradually.
At first it became like a large mosaic, and then the mosaic gradually became clear.
Zhou An is a person who has a code in his eyes and a code in his heart, so he naturally has no idea.
When everything was clear, Zhou An finally saw where he was.
At this moment, he was in the middle of a huge palace.
The palace is luxurious, exuding a sense of solemnity and resplendence.
No matter which one it is, it's all ingenious.
Above the palace, there is something that does not correspond to the palace at all.
- Chairs.
An old chair is being placed in the C position of the palace.
In fact, it stands to reason that it is normal to visit a huge throne here.
But it's just a chair.
Zhou An recognized this chair, which was the favorite one of the women in black in the house.
Of course, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that on the chair, the woman in black is swaying from side to side, looking happy.
Not only that, but underneath, there is a huge cage.
In the cage, a strange pale white gossip shape was trembling.
You don't have to look carefully, Zhou An also knows that the weirdness of this gossip shape is the nightmare in the dream of the woman in black.
But......
This nightmare is too miserable.
It was clear that the Nightmare was imprisoned by the woman in black, and the instinct made the Nightmare feel fear, even overpowering the desire to destroy.
"What the hell is this, Xiao Hei is reluctant to come out, and even let Nightmare build her a palace?" The corners of Zhou An's mouth twitched slightly.
As I thought so, the scene in front of me changed again.
The woman in black stared at the nightmare and snorted.
The nightmare trembles, and a man appears.
This man looks exactly the same as Zhou An, but he is dressed differently.
Dressed like that, it's called a commotion, what should be there and shouldn't be, all of them are worn on the body, revealing a very awesome look.
When Zhou An saw this scene, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he thought: "I am in Xiao Hei's heart, and I am actually this kind of ......"
He really didn't expect that such a gentle, elegant, easy-going, and temperamental man would be misunderstood by a woman in black, and he would be misunderstood as such a riotous man.
Am I angry?
That's impossible!
Zhou An shook his head.
While he was thinking this, the woman in black began to move again.
I saw the woman in black clapping her hands.
Next to "Zhou An", a chair of the same style appeared.
Then, "Zhou An" got on the chair and began to swing left and right.
Not only that, but the woman in black also began to sway left and right.
In those big blank eyes, there was endless happiness and joy at this time.
For a woman in black, true happiness is as simple and unpretentious as it gets.
The swaying of the two of them from side to side looks extremely funny in this solemn palace.
But this funny atmosphere has diluted the solemn atmosphere of this palace a lot, and it seems to be a little angry.
Zhou An felt more and more that although this scene was very special, it inexplicably made him feel a little warm.
To be honest, if you want to say that you have been with each other for the longest time, except for your good brother Yu Hang, there is only the woman in black left.
The two are now in an alternative state of symbiosis, and the usual innocent appearance of the woman in black also makes Zhou An happy.
So seeing this scene, Zhou An felt that he simply let the woman in black play for a while.
After all, the happiness of a woman in black is really simple.
Dreams are the most reflective of a person's heart.
Usually, Zhou An takes the woman in black out, and the woman in black is very happy.
But what the woman in black really wants is for Zhou An to play with her in a chair.
A chair is a very valuable thing for a woman in black.
That chair is the most important besides Zhou An.
She will only share it with Zhou An.
"It's weird, take another look."
Thinking of this, Zhou An watched silently from the side.
But then, Zhou An felt that his emotion was a bit wasted.
Because...... The woman in black doesn't know tiredness at all!
She just played with the chair for a long, long time.
The time in the dream is nothing, but Zhou An can feel that he has really played for a long time.
"It's time to be reminded."
The addiction has passed, and now Zhou An can only disturb loudly.
Zhou An coughed lightly.
The woman in black who was in her own small world heard this voice, and her body immediately stiffened, like a piece of wood, and she saw Zhou An's position.
In those eyes, in addition to being blank, there was also a hint of surprise.
Zhou An was about to speak.
At this moment, the woman in black suddenly tilted her body and fell directly on the chair, her eyes closed, and her mouth was still reading rhythmically.
"Dreaming...... Dream ......"
This appearance is like an ostrich with its head buried in the soil.
Zhou An knew about this situation, as if he said no, but he secretly wrote some kind of article about the two of them, and then happened to be seen.
"Roar!"
At that moment, a roar of rage came.
The nightmare in the cage spotted another living person and let out an eerie roaring sound.
As soon as the roaring sound came out, the woman in black was transformed from an ostrich.
The woman in black glared at Nightmare.
As a powerful rally of tricks, the woman in black seemed to have a sense of oppression from the superiors.
The gossip-shaped nightmare immediately returned to normal, and it looked trembling.
Zhou An touched the head of the woman in black: "Okay, the addiction is too much, kill it, go back." ”
For what he saw just now, Zhou An selectively ignored it.
What else can you do if you don't ignore it?
Spanking?
That's impossible, it's not wrong, it's not necessary.
The woman in black sighed, changed her previous appearance, and became very well-behaved again.
There is no way not to be well-behaved, and they have all been debunked by Zhou An.
In case Zhou An doesn't take her out to play, she is the one who loses the most.
Zhou An didn't speak again, waiting for the woman in black to make a move.
He didn't need to do it himself, this level of weirdness could be easily grasped by the woman in black with one finger.
But at this time, the woman in black, who had always been well-behaved, suddenly pointed to her head as if she had thought of something.
"Dream ......"
Zhou An was slightly stunned.
Although I have been with the woman in black for a long time, many things are self-explanatory, but it is still difficult to find out just by relying on one word.
"What do you mean?" Zhou An asked.
The woman in black rolled her eyes, as if organizing language.
But her little language reserve can only express a little simple meaning, which is really complicated, and it is not needed at this time.
Thinking of this, the woman in black became a little anxious.
It was indeed in a hurry, she wanted to express it, but she couldn't do it.
Just when the woman in black was in a hurry, she suddenly saw a nightmare on the side, as if she had thought of something, and a happy expression appeared on her face.
She really can't express it, but she can express it through dreams.
Thinking of this, the woman in black turned her head to look at the nightmare.
The nightmare shivered, instinct terrified it, even made it want to die.
Because it feels like the woman in black is the biggest weirdness.
Just as the eyes of the woman in black looked at her, and without even the woman in black speaking, Nightmare began to use its powers.
The next moment, the palace began to change.
To be precise, it was not the palace that changed, but the two discordant chairs in the palace that disappeared directly.
With the disappearance of the chair, the very riotous "Zhou An" was also gone.
And where the chair disappeared, a luxurious throne appeared.
Above the throne, there is even a fist-sized night pearl inlaid with a brilliant light.
This throne is more in line with the temperament of the palace, and it is much taller than the old chair.
"There's weirdness."
When Zhou An saw this scene, he frowned, as if something was going to happen.
In front of him, the woman in black suddenly gave him this set, and he knew that the big one was coming.
Sure enough, when Zhou An was thinking so, a sound of footsteps suddenly sounded.
The sound of footsteps came from outside the palace.
Zhou An followed the source of the footsteps and saw the owner of the footsteps.
When he saw this person, he was slightly stunned.
At the gate of the palace, a richly dressed middle-aged man walked in from the outside.
The middle-aged man has an ancient aura on his body, and at the same time, every step seems to be after exquisite calculations, and he slowly takes this step.
Not only that, but in the right hand of the middle-aged man, he holds four books.
Zhou An saw that on the cover at the top, the words "Peerless Casting" were written.
If he were to talk about this, he was all too familiar.
This was the first time he had come into contact with the eight stunts, and he even destroyed the eight stunts in order to destroy the members of the longitudinal nature.
The middle-aged man in front of him, holding four books in his hands, which could be put together with the eight stunts, Zhou Anxin had a guess.
"This may also be the Eight Stunts." Zhou Anxin thought.
He couldn't think of anything else but this idea.
Not only that, Zhou An also felt that this middle-aged man seemed to give him a very familiar feeling.
"I think I've seen it somewhere." Zhou An thought quickly in his mind.
A person in the middle of the line thinks very quickly when he thinks about things in his head.
The harder Zhou An thought about it, the more the figure of the middle-aged and luxurious man in front of him coincided with another figure.
After a while, the other figure became clearer and clearer, and Zhou An already knew the identity of this man.
- The man on the edge of the cliff.
At the beginning, when the woman in black used the arithmetic of Tongtian, Zhou An had seen the man composed of light, and the eye at the bottom of the cliff.
Although I didn't see the man's facial features, at this moment, the aura of the middle-aged and luxurious man in front of him was exactly the same as that man.
Zhou An can be sure that this is definitely that person.
"In other words, the dream made Xiao Hei think of a lot of things, and what she is presenting to me through the dream now should be what happened in the past." Zhou An thought.
These things, to say that you are not curious is fake.
The unknown ancient times, the terrifying past, and the life story of the woman in black are all mysteries, and they also make people want to uncover them.
Zhou An had actually guessed that the woman in black was the baby girl at that time.
But for this middle-aged and luxurious man, Zhou An almost didn't know anything.
Now, with this opportunity to understand, Zhou An will naturally not let go of any detail.
In Zhou An's gaze, the middle-aged and luxurious man seemed to have not seen him at all, and came to the throne of the palace by himself, and sat down silently.
After a moment, the middle-aged man began to flip through the book in his hand.
First is the Peerless Cast, and then the next three books.
He flipped so fast that it took him almost as soon as he had a stick of incense, and all four books had been turned.
Zhou An was still very curious to go up to see the content, but unfortunately, the content on it was a huge mosaic.
"I can't see it, it doesn't matter." He didn't feel like anything either.
At this time, the middle-aged and noble man, who had finished reading all the books, put the four books on the armrest of the throne and fell into deep thought.
It took another stick of incense before he came back to his senses.
"Alas...... I used the arithmetic of the heavens, the heavens and the earth, and everything to collect these four books and eight stunts, and three of them are still missing. ”
There was a hint of sigh in the middle-aged man's tone: "At the beginning, the death of the founder of the Eight Unique Techniques would never be so simple, I would definitely be able to find the root cause." ”
"The roots of the strange places, the huge cracks that tear the heavens and the earth, and the phantoms that have been hovering in the cracks."
"Every phantom is terrifying, and I even see those earth-shattering characters in distant times."
"It's a pity that I don't dare to see too much."
Every sentence represents a secret.
These secrets made Zhou An frown.
Then, after a little tidying up, he had already come up with a few main points.
First, the death of the founder of the Eight Stunts is probably not an infighting.
Second, the crack is a strange place, even the root, but he doesn't know where the crack is, and now there seems to be no crack.
Third, inside the cracks, there are former big shots.
Nothing else is known.
"Keep looking." Zhou An plans to continue watching.
At this moment, the middle-aged and luxurious man suddenly thought of something, stood up, his tone became extremely excited, and slowly spoke......
(End of chapter)
