Chapter 198: Nightmare (I)

"What do you think?" my heart suddenly lifted.

"When my sister and I were brought here, I had fantasies that it was somebody's prank. My sister and I were separated from each other, and for a while I could hear my sister crying, but it wasn't long before I couldn't hear it. Tan Bing said in a deep voice.

Jicheng opened his mouth, as if he wanted to remind Tan Bing of something, and Long Ring shook his head slightly.

"Since the day I came in, I haven't seen Huanqin again!" Tan Bing's voice suddenly rose up, sounding very sad: "I don't know if she is dead or alive! Why do those spiders treat us like this!"

The spider stood beside me, her eyelids drooping, her face expressionless.

Although I was anxious, I knew that I should let Tan Bing finish what she wanted to say anyway.

"In the cell I was in, there were twenty people, almost all of them boys and girls. I don't know each other. But from confusion to confusion, from blind confidence to collapse and despair, everyone's mental journey is almost the same. When we can no longer remember the date and live a day and night without tomorrow, everyone's mental defense finally collapses, and we start to have nightmares anytime and anywhere......" Tan Bing's voice was filled with fear and bone-chilling coldness.

I didn't dare look her in the eye.

I was surprised why she had such ridiculously large eyes, because there was so much fear, pain and hatred in them.

"Can you imagine?" Tan Bing suddenly brought her face closer to me, and no matter how calm I was, I couldn't help but shudder.

"It's a real hell on earth! If you're asleep, you're having nightmares, and if you're awake, you'll see everyone around you having nightmares! Their faces are hideous, they gnash their teeth, or they mumble to themselves, or they scream, and you don't know when they're secretly going to reach out and pull you tightly!" Tan Bing glared at me, her eyes like two gray palms escaping from a nightmare, desperately dragging me, trying for me to take her away!

Nightmare-kun, nightmares, are you really hiding in this snow-mare-like lake beneath our feet? Can you hear Tan Bing's accusations? Can you feel the pain of these people you have imprisoned?!

I reached out to cover the left eye that Si'er had replaced for me, and I ...... I don't know what to do, how do I promise what Si'er said to me before she died, "If you catch him, please let him go"?

"When I think of Huanqin, my sister, who is in another place, like me, suffering from this endless torture, I ...... I'll just ......" Tan Bing said twice, but couldn't continue.

None of the three of us, along with the spider, made a sound urging. Hold your breath and be silent, and have relatives.

"I'd rather she die......" Tan Bing lamented, "but I really want to find her and take her back...... She's so small, so cute, and her life has barely begun......"

"Huanqin won't die!" I reached out and grabbed Tan Bing's shoulder, met her eyes, and said viciously, "We will definitely find her! Take her home!

"Really...... Really?" Tan Bing looked at me, tears rolling down.

In addition to nodding desperately, I nodded desperately.

“...... There was nothing unusual in the cell. Tan Bing closed his eyes, stained the tears in his eyes, stretched out his hand to wipe them dry, on his white and thin cheeks, a pair of eyes were big and bright, and his expression was resolute, like a regrouped warrior.

"If there's anything out of the ordinary, it's a nightmare of mine. Tan Bing said: "I don't know how many nightmares I've had for so long, but there's only one nightmare, and I'll do it repeatedly, so much so that I no longer believe it's a dream, it must have really happened." ”

"What kind of nightmare?" asked the dragon ring aloud.

Tan Bing's eyes widened - she really couldn't stare anymore, otherwise the other features on her face would be swallowed by her eyes.

Taking a breath, she calmed her emotions - what a terrible nightmare it that required her to summon all her courage to remember?

"That nightmare always starts when you wake up. Tan Bing began her narrative.

She tried to calm her tone as calmly as possible, but it made my heart tighten a little as I listened.

"I woke up from my cell, and the whole cell was sleeping. I cautiously walked through the sleeping people and into the depths of the cell, for there was something on the innermost wall of the cell.

"In the lower left corner of the wall, there is a shiny thing lying on its stomach. I couldn't resist and could only get closer and closer. Strangely, as I got closer, it got bigger and bigger. By the time I got to the wall, the shiny thing had become the size of a wall.

"It was a spider, a spider that shimmered blue, but it was just a pattern, like a giant spider carved into the wall with a carving knife. Each line is lit up with a brilliant blue light, and it comes to life.

"I couldn't help but reach out and touch it—although every time I woke up from a nightmare, I would tell myself never to walk towards that wall, let alone touch the spider pattern on the wall, but, to no avail, in the next dream, I would still approach, watch, and touch it as I did the first time...... The cycle repeats, and there is no end to pain and fear......

"Going on, as soon as my hand touched the spider on the wall, the touch of my fingers changed, and I felt like I was touching a real spider, and the pattern engraved on the wall began to become bulging, and then full, and then my nose was full of fishy smell, and by the time I reacted, a huge living spider had crawled out of the wall, almost up to the tip of my nose!

At this time, I couldn't run, my feet seemed to be useless, my legs were filled with lead, and I turned around and cried out, trying to ask for help, but my mouth seemed to be covered with something, and I couldn't make a sound at all. Moreover, everyone, as if they were dead, slept so silently.

"I stood stunned and looked at it, because I was so scared that I forgot to be afraid. I watched its every move, watched it emerge from the wall, watched it crawl slowly down the wall to the ceiling of the cell, watched it climb down the ceiling to the sleeping crowd, watched its legs run over their faces and bodies, it searched and picked, and the wisps of spider silk that seeped out of its feet and bodies hung on the sleeping people. I confess that I had become evil out of fear, and I instinctively knew that it was picking its prey, and how I wished it had picked one of the sleeping multitudes, whichever one was not me!

"It was a huge, snow-blue spider, and as it crawled slowly and slowly towards me, my hairs stood on end, and I said to myself, 'If only this were a nightmare.' But it's a nightmare! a nightmare that makes you wish you were awake for the rest of your life and never close your eyes!

"It looked at me with satisfaction, and like a gift, stretched out its legs, and took me, who could not move or speak, and grabbed it, drew it closer, and then ...... inch by inch Send me into its mouth. ”
