Chapter Thirty-Nine: Nightmares
"Shadows. The window was blown open by the wind and then closed, and Gong Wei appeared silently, bowing slightly.
The shadow said: "It's over, you guys can withdraw, and write down everything that has happened in the places they are monitoring these days and give it to me." ”
Gong Wei was stunned for a moment: "This is the end?"
The shadow glanced at him, "What's wrong? Is there a problem? You're the one who asked to leave?"
Gong Wei shook his head: "I can't say the problem, I just feel a little uneasy, I think the matter is far from over." ”
The shadow said: "This is Childe's order, withdraw it, don't check it any further, it's not necessarily a good thing to know too much." ”
Gong Wei nodded, and then asked, "Then do you need to give Fengyunxuan a copy of what is found out this time?"
The shadow said: "The ones you gave me last time I have already given Fengyun Xuan the news that they can be sold. After that, you give me the news first, and I'll pick out the ones that can be given to Fengyunxuan and send them over, you don't have to worry about it. Also, have there been any new casualties in the past few days?"
Gong Wei said: "No, all are safe." ”
Shadow bowed: "That's good." Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, he asked, "What else is the matter?"
Gong Wei said: "I went to the branch building of Fengyun Xuan Bianliang a few days ago, and Xia Peng bought news there. ”
The shadow narrowed: "What's the news?"
Gong Wei said: "It's not very important news, it's just a little basic information about the little prince and Lu Hou." After all, what is sold openly is only some expensive secret information, Xia Peng doesn't understand the rules of Fengyunxuan, and he can't buy a deeper one. I ordered them to temporarily block the news that Xia Peng needs, and the basic information will be kept for sale. I don't think it's a big deal, so I'll give my own orders first. ”
The shadow pondered for a moment: "Good job, that's good, the news is sealed, it's easier to arouse suspicion." In this way, let the others return to their respective places first, and you stay here to help sort out the news sent by Fengyunxuan. ”
Gong Wei was dumbfounded: "Why is it me again?!"
The shadow asked, "What do you mean again?" I want to prepare for the puppet palace, and then I have to go to the puppet palace, so naturally I don't have time to take care of these innocuous little things. There's nothing important about the valley, and you'll be idle when you go back. ”
"Nothing to worry about?" Gong Wei muttered, reluctantly agreeing, "Okay, okay, I'll stay, but you can spare me next time." ”
The shadow didn't care about his complaining tone, and continued to say to himself: "If nothing else, the shadow guards who will arrive from the puppet palace this time will divide the wine hall and the Stygian Valley equally. Some time ago, Xuanyuan Yin said that there were too few henchmen in charge of the management of the Styx Valley, and the Stygian Valley Plus was easy to suppress, and hoped to transfer a few to the past. This candidate has not been decided for the time being, and Gongzi plans to draw two or three from the Liuzi Hall of the Wine Hall, and the main and deputy hall masters will give you at least one. Of course, just borrow, and then find a more suitable one and replace it. You happen to be here, do you have anyone who wants to leave?"
"The main and deputy hall masters?" Gong Wei thought for a moment, "The current deputy hall master of the Liuzi Hall seems to be quicksand, right?"
Shadow shook his head, "I don't know. ”
Gong Wei said: "Gongzi may know that he is an apprentice of the Demon Duck, and his martial arts are a little poor, but his memory is very good and he is smart." If you can, bring him in. Shadow...... What do you see I'm doing? weird. ”
The shadow looked at him deeply: "Demon Owl apprentice again, what enmity do you have with your master?"
Gong Wei looked a little surprised, and asked rhetorically, "Who are you?"
Shadow frowned: "What am I?"
Gong Wei said with a smile: "I always feel that you suddenly felt weird just now, and it is not quite similar to the tone of your usual speech." Okay, I'll admit that it's a bit inappropriate for me to come to the Valley of the Shadows and pull the shallow marks over again, but there's a real reason why I'm pulling the quicksand. Besides, it's just borrowing, I'll calculate, at most half a year, about four months, even if you can't find someone to replace him, I will definitely not force him to keep - of course, this time is calculated according to the addition of people in the Stygian Valley. ”
Shadow asked, "Have you found the right person?"
Gong Wei spread his hands and said, "I picked up an apprentice, he is a mute, very serious and obedient." Of course, it's not very smart, but you can give me a hand, I took him for more than half a year, and I think it's still trustworthy. It will take more than a month for the quicksand to come, and I will try him again in this half year. ”
Shadow didn't object: "I'll tell Childe that if I have time to meet the demon duck in a few days, I'll discuss this matter with him." ”
Gong Wei said: "That's fine, I have nothing else to do." Any other commands?"
The shadow said: "It's nothing, you can give me the information that everyone has added as soon as possible." And ......" stretched out his hand and pointed to the big wooden box in the corner of the room, and said, "Send this thing to Fengqiong." ”
Gong Wei was stunned and said, "Give Feng Qiong, what is this?"
The shadow glanced at him: "The ornament I stole from the General's Mansion." ”
Gong Wei laughed as if he thought of something, and when he saw the shadow displeased, he stretched his neck and looked at his shoulder: "Is your injury healed?"
The shadow asked lightly: "Can I shoot you with an arrow and try to hurt for six days?"
Gong Wei looked at him suspiciously: "Sure enough, you don't look like the usual shadow." ”
The shadow frowned slightly: "Don't you think your nonsense is too much?"
Gong Wei immediately took a few steps back and picked up the box: "Shadow, I'm leaving, you can take care of your injuries." He still walked away from the window as lightly as he had come, not in the slightest dull by the large box.
The shadow slowly got up, pushed open the window, and left silently into the night, leaving only the empty room.
"Yunmo, Yunmo!"
Some familiar but inaudible voices rang in his ears, and Zhao Qingyan shook his head left and right in annoyance, wanting to get rid of the nasty voice. But the sound kept ringing, slowly distorting and becoming sharp.
"Zhao Qingyan, look at what is in front of you?"
A small pavilion in the middle of the lake, and I couldn't hear who was talking. He was standing in this pavilion for one person to stand on, and there were corpses floating on the surface of the lake, with their stomachs cut open, and there was nothing inside, and all their internal organs had turned into blood. Blood poured out of their ears and nostrils and into the blood-soaked water.
The blood-colored water poured up the pavilion, wetting his feet, and he screamed and retreated, but he almost fell into the lake behind him.
Only the pavilion in the place of the cone was slowly submerged by the rising lake, and the blood flooded his ankles, knees, thighs, and lower abdomen...... The floating corpses slowly drifted towards them, their eyes wide open, their eyes protruding and bleeding.
I'm scared, I'm scared, who's going to save me?
I was shouting desperately, but I couldn't make any sound.
He was desperately waving his arms to swim to the shore, but he waved his hands in vain, unable to move a bit. The hammer-like weight pressed against his arm, and his leg didn't feel anything, and he couldn't even feel the flow of blood.
The water didn't reach the mouth, it flowed into the mouth. I was desperately spitting out, coughing desperately to spit out the disgusting blood, desperately trying to vomit.
"Yunmo!" "Little Wangye!" "Mo'er!"
A familiar voice rang in my ears. They...... Don't come!
I finally shouted, and my voice was crying: "Run, run, run, leave me alone!"
"Run!"
"Leave me alone, leave it alone...... Ahem, I'm ......."
"Get out of here!"
Lu Wei looked at Zhao Qingyan, who was struggling and gradually weakening, let go of his hand, took two steps back, and raised his hand to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead.
King Qi also oozed fine beads of sweat on his forehead, but he remained calm: "How is it?"
Feng Hong was silent for a moment and shook his head: "The situation of the little prince is not optimistic, if he doesn't wake up, we won't be able to deal with it." Looking at the young imperial doctor next to him: "What does Lord Song think?"
Song Heran sang and put the medicine bowl aside: "Let's not talk about his condition, he can't feed the medicine at all now." If you still have to keep feeding, I'm afraid it will be even worse. ”
King Qi nodded in understanding, not even sighing: "That's the case again." ”
Seeing that the medicinal juice that was fed and vomited out was vomited everywhere, Lu Wei's expression moved slightly, and he muttered in a low voice: "It's the West Lake bloody case again." ”
King Qi took the wet handkerchief handed over by the maid, carefully wiped the medicinal juice and sweat beads on Zhao Qingyan's face, and then slowly spoke: "During this time, more and more people are dying in the rivers and lakes from crying blood to tears, although he is not mentioning this matter, but he is still overwhelmed. ”
handed the dirty handkerchief to the maid, took the clean one and put it on his son's forehead, looked at the flush on his face, and shook his head helplessly: "I don't know when the fever will go down, wouldn't it be more difficult to wake up if it goes on like this?"
Song Heran said: "Little prince looks like this, how can the prince leave him here alone? ”
King Qi was quite annoyed: "I didn't expect him to be attacked by Zhu Yankai at such a time, it's only been half a month since the last episode." ”
Lu cried: "I was negligent, I should have thought of it when I saw that he was not in the right situation last night." ”
Song Heran looked at Zhao Qingyan and frowned slightly, his voice a little confused: "What is the nightmare brought by Zhu Yangai? ”
"Entangled. Lu Wei replied subconsciously, and when he saw that everyone was looking at him, he shrugged his shoulders again, "The poison in me is not as deep as Yunmo, maybe the situation is still different." Moreover...... Although it is a bit arbitrary to say this, I don't think the nightmare has much to do with Zhu Yanchang. ”
Song Heran was slightly stunned: "What do you mean by Lu Hou's words?"
Lu wept: "Nightmare, in the end, is just a fear that can't be forgotten. Because you can't forget it, it will appear when you fall asleep, repeat it over and over again, and deepen the fear in your heart that you are desperately trying to forget and can't forget. Rather than not forgetting, it may be more unwilling to forget. Because if you forget it, you will forget all the torture you have suffered for so many years. ”
He tilted his head: "Perhaps, it has become a distorted memory, right? Because the nightmare will restore everything at that time, hatred, fear, sadness, helplessness, and even pain." In order not to forget the hatred brought to him by this repeated torture, he would rather remember it with his own pain. ”
Song Heran's eyes darkened, and he nodded: "That's true, I can understand this feeling." But as the little prince said, and what I saw, Zhu Yankai will indeed make the nightmare intense. ”
Lu cried: "The word violent is used very well, and Zhu Yangai just makes the fear of the nightmare repeat more unforgettable." Exhaling lightly, he smiled: "After all, dreams can't feel real pain, can't feel that touch, can't smell like that, but Zhu Yankai will restore, very real restore." ”
"Also, Zhu Yankai will add other people's memories to you. Lu Wei looked at Zhao Qingyan, his eyes were a little distant, and he probably saw something else, "The personal feelings that others have told you, Zhu Yankai will repeat them." When Zhu Yankai had a seizure, he didn't know who he was at all, so he could only let his memories dominate his body, obeying the most basic instincts in the nightmare to do things that he was not aware of at all. ”
Feng Hong imagined that kind of result, and couldn't help but shudder: "That ......"
Seeing what he didn't say, Lu Wei nodded lightly: "As long as Zhu Yan changes his backlash, whether he is awake or asleep, he will easily repeat other people's experiences, accept other people's emotions, and then do some corresponding things naturally." When you are awake, you can also rely on the support of reason to forcibly suppress it, and if you fall asleep...... You can only accept such pain. The fears I have experienced in person, every detail is extraordinarily detailed, and it is also the most difficult dream to wake up from. ”
"Breeze, save me, save me, don't go, don't leave me!"
