Chapter 60: Dreams
At night, the two of them were already physically and mentally exhausted after experiencing the daytime battles, and Li Huixi's physical strength had already been overdrawn, but fortunately, the fireflies could strengthen her senses, and she could detect any abnormalities nearby, which could also allow the two to sleep well for a short time.
"Son, come and try the brown sugar glutinous rice cake made by my mother."
"I can't eat it, I'm so supportive."
"Really...... Next time, you are not allowed to eat so many snacks before meals. ”
At the end of the conversation between the mother and son, a middle-aged man pushed open the door, holding a new toy in his hand, and looked at the boy in front of him dotingly.
After handing him the gift, the man simply cleaned up, took off his somewhat restrained work clothes, and changed into the home clothes sent by his wife.
The wife also happened to be busy, took off her apron, and a loose navy blue robe was revealed, she liked ancient clothes very much, but today in order to facilitate housework, she deliberately chose this not a complicated one.
The boy can't wait to take apart the toys and play various animated characters in the living room.
"Zhizhi, your glutinous rice today is very fragrant."
"Don't praise me, you say that every day...... I just followed the recipe, nothing special. ”
"But it's better than what is sold outside, of course I have to praise you for doing a good job."
"Really...... It's an old husband and wife, and they always do this. ”
Although she said so, the woman's blushing face couldn't deceive, she knew that she didn't have the talent to cook, but every time she cooked, her husband would come up with all kinds of new words to praise herself, which also became the reason why she liked to cook.
The husband deliberately picked up a piece of glutinous rice and shook it in front of his son, pretending to be hypocritical:
"It's a pity that some people don't have such a good mouth."
The child put down the toy in his hand, touched his bulging belly again, and bit the glutinous rice cake on his father's chopsticks, but the father just shrank his hand, and the child's upper and lower teeth bumped together and bit into the air.
"Disobedient children don't have glutinous rice to eat, didn't mom tell you that you are not allowed to eat snacks before meals?"
"No matter what, I'm going to eat it."
"It's okay to eat, hand over the stolen snacks!"
The child shook his head, stood up and was about to grab the glutinous rice to eat, but the father also stood up, and the two chased for a while, until finally the father was so unbearable that he reluctantly stuffed the glutinous rice into his mouth.
"Daddy is bad!"
The wife watched this scene, and her heart was indescribably warm, if it was a dream, she hoped that she would never wake up.
This life didn't last long.
The news began to report the emergence of a kind of "clone" who would be brutally murdered when they met their owner.
It's not peaceful outside, and the man will work for the last time today, and then he will hide in his house with his wife and children for a while.
The familiar knock sounded, and the wife just put down the watering kettle in her hand and was about to open the door, but the husband never knocked on the door a second time, for more than ten years, never.
A sense of foreboding permeated the room, and the wife was a little apprehensive and planned to take a look at the cat's eye first.
The eyes were gently raised, and the face behind the cat's eye was indeed the person he was familiar with, but his expression was a little stiff, and the distance between him and the cat's eye was a little strange.
But in any case, the person outside the door is his husband, and he can't be left alone in the dangerous outside world, the doorknob is pressed down, the lock cylinder opens, and knocks on the hollow iron door frame, unlike in the past, this time the impact sound is particularly harsh.
As if someone was warning his wife, the window facing the door in the corridor also happened to produce a burst of convection, and only barely opened a small crack, and the wind forced the door back, and the moment it closed, the wife saw that the door god posted outside the door fell to the ground at some point.
The feeling of uneasiness in my heart became more and more intense, but I observed the cat's eye again, and the face of my husband in my eyes was real, and I really couldn't deceive anyone.
The knock on the door became more and more urgent.
The son in the room was also woken up and came over, and the wife looked at the clock and hesitated for a while, and finally the son stretched out his little hand and pushed the door open.
Although the wife had a premonition that something was about to happen, she could not have imagined that there was a person standing outside the door who was covered in blood and looked exactly like her husband, but he could not be a husband, and the temperament he showed and his demeanor did not belong to the owner of this face at all.
The most creepy thing is that the face of the husband seen in the cat's eyes is not the man standing in front of the door now, but the human head in his hand.
The wife recognized at a glance that this head was her real husband.
didn't have time to think, instinct drove her to protect her own son behind her, it was too late to close the door, and behind the monster, several "clones" similar to him followed.
After that, the memories have become blurred, this is a memory that the child does not want to remember, the only impression is the back of the mother wearing green clothes and hiding everywhere.
Later, all he remembered was that a woman came in his sleep to make a deal with him and his mother.
"I can reunite your family, but with some requirements."
"No matter what the cost, I am willing to bear ......"
After that, it won't appear in Xingzhou's dream again.
"Ahhhhh......h
Xingzhou woke up, this dream, he had been doing for many years.
"Nightmare?"
Li Huixi was also woken up by Xingzhou's voice, but fortunately his voice was not too loud, and there was no one else around.
Xingzhou nodded, but after waking up from this dream, he couldn't remember anything, he only knew that his sleep was not steady.
"What did you dream about?"
"I can't remember."
"Your mother?"
"Maybe."
"There's still enough time, let's go back to sleep."
Xingzhou shook his head, every time he had this dream, his thoughts would become very chaotic, and it would be difficult for him to fall asleep again.
"Tell us about your world, like what do you think school looks like?"
"School, it's a lot of people learning together, don't you understand the meaning of the word?"
"Can anyone be? I knew the concept of a school, but I had never actually seen it. ”
"Well, anyone can do it."
"Wouldn't that have had a lot of friends?"
"...... right"
"Do people have to live in schools for the rest of their lives? I want to stay in a place like this all the time. ”
"Not really, once you've learned something, you're going to work, but with your talent, being a linguist shouldn't be a problem."
Linguist...... Isn't it amazing? ”
"It's not very powerful, but it's already a height that many people can't reach."
"Then what are you going to do in your own world?"
"Me? Didn't think about it. ”
"Be a mother, it must be very popular."
Li Huixi pursed his lips helplessly and asked disdainfully:
"Are there many people in your community who share the same mother?"
Xingzhou thought about it for a moment and said slowly:
"It's not really, it's just that I've had a lot of mothers."
"What do you mean you've had a lot of mothers?"
"It's just that a lot of people have taken care of me, and each of them has asked me to call my mother."
"And which one do you talk about a lot?"
"I can't think of this one, it should be my first mother, I just remember that she loved me very much."
Although Li Huixi was surrounded by clouds, he still heard something wrong from Xingzhou's words.
According to him, Xingzhou was not accompanied by his biological mother, which means that he may not belong to this group, which can explain why other people are parasitized by fireflies because of the increase in force value, while he has gained a talent for ancient cultural analysis.
can be thought of being parasitized by fireflies and strengthened in combat, why is this one person special, is it ......?
"He's got something tampered with!"
