Chapter 386: Dream
After Xiang Kun guided Lao Xia's dream, Lao Xia was almost "awake in seconds", and now she is more and more familiar with the dreams caused by this kind of "love object", and she is becoming more and more skilled in influencing dreams by controlling the projection of "super-connected objects" in her dreams.
Soon, Xia Libing entered the "world of consciousness" through the "CAKE01" that appeared in his dream, connecting with the black circle graffiti that had just established a connection today and asked Xiang Kun to get to a window sill in the dormitory.
There is a noticeable change in perception, as if entering a new world.
Xiang Kun knew that there was a person who was asleep in the area of influence of the black circle graffiti on the edge of the windowsill, and had been successfully introduced into her "dream within a dream" by Lao Xia.
But when he saw the situation in the dream, Xiang Kun was a little surprised.
The owner of this "dream within a dream" turned out to be someone he and Lao Xia both knew.
On the night of the twenty-ninth year of the year, he had just returned to Thorn Tong and met Lao Xia in a café, and when he went back, he found that someone was following Lao Xia, so he did a small fight and captured two "bad guys".
At that time, the police officers in charge of their case were two police officers, an old man and a young man, the older one surnamed Xu and the younger one surnamed Zhao.
And at this time in the dream, the image of the "protagonist" is obviously that Officer Xiao Zhao.
On the empty street, Officer Xiao Zhao, who was dressed in civilian clothes, was hiding behind a car with a nervous expression.
A giant about four meters long, with more than a dozen arms and eyes on his head, was roaming the streets, as if looking for Officer Xiao Zhao.
Finding out that this was Officer Xiao Zhao's dream, Xiang Kun was already a little surprised and surprised, and it was even more unexpected to see this multi-armed and multi-eyed giant in Officer Xiao Zhao's dream.
Although the image of this giant is not exactly the same as the eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving, not to mention other things, even the number of arms, the way the arms are connected to the torso, and the arrangement of the eyes are fundamentally different.
But Xiang Kun has an intuition that the source of this giant in Officer Xiao Zhao's dream is an eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving.
He knew very well that his intuition now came from a large amount of extrasensory information that the brain could not yet process, and it was not an unreliable conjecture that popped up with a pat on his head. And nowadays, in the context of dreams, intuition is sometimes even more reliable than direct sensory information in dreams.
However, he can also judge from the form of this giant that Officer Xiao Zhao's cognition of the eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving should be from the relay of others.
After all, judging from many previous examples, whether it is the hallucination of people through the "projection of the projection" in reality, or the emotional projection of the eight-armed and eight-eyed wood carving in the dream, although some specific details, such as the size, clothing, and skin condition of the eight-armed and eight-eyed monster, will be different, but the overall body structure, such as the arrangement of the eyes, the number of arms, the way it is connected to the torso, etc., should be the same, and the wood carving is unified.
If you are a person who sees hallucinations and has terrible nightmares, when describing the eight-armed and eight-eyed monster in reality, there may be something indescribable, but in the dream, the eight-armed and eight-eyed monster is derived from the image of the subconscious, but it should not be so powerful.
Xiang Kun immediately guessed where Officer Xiao Zhao knew the image of the eight-armed and eight-eyed monster - the three car thieves in the abandoned factory who were affected by Xiang Kun's emotional projection range in his "super sensory state".
According to what he heard later, the three car thieves ended up going to the police station and were controlled by the police.
One is nervous, and the other is to turn himself in.
They will more or less tell the police about the "hallucinations" they see in the abandoned factory.
Although they went to the Yungang District Bureau to turn themselves in, Officer Xiao Zhao was not there, but it was also in Thornton City, and it was estimated that he had heard about this matter - even his old classmate Li Peiye could hear a lot of news, not to mention Officer Xiao Zhao in the same system.
But it's one thing to hear about it, to dream about it...... But it's kind of weird.
You must know that this dream is triggered by black circle graffiti, and from past experience, it is mainly to mobilize the recent attention of the dream owner.
More than half a month has passed since what happened in the abandoned factory on the outskirts of Yungang District, so it makes no sense that Officer Xiao Zhao still remembers it, right? After all, it was not his case.
And when the police heard the descriptions of those car thieves, it was normally impossible to believe them. According to Li Peiye's description when he attended his classmate's wedding before, the police also listened to it as a joke, which is a normal attitude.
Could it be that Officer Xiao Zhao is particularly concerned about these "rumors"?
Or...... Officer Xiao Zhao was particularly timid, and was frightened by that "rumor"?
Well, judging from the cognitive model established by Xiang Kun's brief contact with Officer Xiao Zhao at night, the possibility of the latter is almost zero.
Just when Xiang Kun was puzzled, Officer Xiao Zhao's dream changed dramatically, from an empty and uninhabited city street to the air.
Officer Xiao Zhao actually rode on the back of the multi-armed multi-eyed giant, flying in the air, watching from the city to the suburbs.
Soon, there are lush trees as far as the eye can see, and you will enter the mountainous area of Zihuan Mountain.
Xiang Kun naturally knows that this is the handiwork of Lao Xia, the "dream director".
In the afternoon, he had already discussed in detail with Lao Xia how to tell a "story" in a dream to guide the person who was entrusted with a dream to go to Zihuan Mountain to find those corpses after waking up.
Choosing the people in the dormitory of the Dream Trustee Branch, they directly carry out the "Dream Calling the Police", instead of casually looking for someone in the villages and towns near Zihuan Mountain to ask for a dream, and then go to the police after they find the corpse, it is also worried that if ordinary people are guided by dreams and see those corpses in the mountain, they will be mentally impacted, which may have some negative effects.
But at that time, I didn't expect that I could just dream of Officer Xiao Zhao, and Officer Xiao Zhao happened to dream of a giant who was suspected of being an eight-armed and eight-eyed monster.
Lao Xia obviously temporarily changed the "script" that he had discussed with Xiang Kun before, played it himself, and added the giant to it.
At the beginning, Lao Xia couldn't influence such a wide range so quickly in the "Dream within a Dream", but Xiang Kun found a way to replace Lao Xia's "Super-Linked Projection" in the "Dream within a Dream" to assist, which could greatly increase Lao Xia's efficiency in editing dreams in dreams, and also allow him to directly participate in the construction and editing of dreams.
Xiang Kun is equivalent to turning herself into a "WYSIWYG super plug-in" that Lao Xia can use in her dreams, quickly realizing her ideas.
It is precisely because of this kind of assistance that although Lao Xia has not actually seen the place where Xiang Kun found his body in Zihuan Mountain, he can still roughly reveal that place in his dream with Xiang Kun's help and support.
The multi-armed and multi-eyed giant carried Officer Xiao Zhao all the way into Zihuan Mountain, and then began to slow down and become very slow, deliberately trying to let Officer Xiao Zhao recognize his position and the route he was traveling.
Although some details are somewhat different from reality, and many places are even directly pasted and cannot be seen clearly, as long as the general terrain and some iconic scenery remain unchanged and can be used for reference, Officer Xiao Zhao can also "follow the dream" and find the location after waking up.
If Officer Xiao Zhao can't find it, it's a big deal to dream a few more times......
When the giant reached its final location, he put Officer Zhao down, and then all his hands pointed to the cave not far away, as if inviting him to enter.
Officer Xiao Zhao's fear of the giant in his dream has dissipated a lot after flying all the way, and he cautiously walked to the edge of the cave and looked inside.
Inside, there was a man whose face was not clear and whose body was also covered in mist, stretched out his hand to him, and shouted in a hoarse voice, "Help me......"
Officer Xiao Zhao was startled and subconsciously took two steps back, but immediately turned around and rushed into the cave, reaching out to pull the man.
Under Lao Xia's control, the dream ended here, disintegrating and dissipating.
......
Zhao Feng opened his eyes and woke up from his dream.
He got up and sat on the edge of the bed, looked back at the dark sky outside the window, looked at the time on his phone again, frowned, and began to recall the dream he had just had.
It wasn't the first time he had dreamed of the multi-armed and multi-eyed monster he had discussed so many times with his old classmates at the police academy.
But generally speaking, after he wakes up, it is difficult for him to recall the previous dreams, at least most of the content and details are not clear, and he can only vaguely know what the dream is related to.
And the dream he just had, he recalled it now, and all the details were very clear.
He was carried by the monster to the sky, and then to the mountains!
He also knew very well that the mountain he entered in his dream was Zihuan Mountain.
The last place where the monster landed, the cave, was in a relatively remote area inside Zihuan Mountain that few people visited.
Why do you dream of such dreams?
Is there really such a cave in Zihuan Mountain?
What does it mean to be in a cave for help?
Zhao Feng suspected that he had this dream because he had read the post about the Phoenix Tribulation in Zihuan Mountain during the day, and because he had been studying the multi-armed and multi-eyed monster hallucinations that many suspects had seen with his old classmates during this time.
In fact, during this time, he and his old classmate who worked in another city made some other discoveries.
Through the follow-up of the six suspects in the previous two cases, they found that the six suspects who had hallucinated and seen multi-armed and multi-eyed monsters had changed greatly in their behavior and personality.
There are two main manifestations, one is to change their minds very sincerely, take the initiative to explain to the police and prosecutors the crimes they have committed before, and do the wrong things, regardless of whether they are asked about the relevant content, they will take the initiative to confess. Even some things that are not illegal, but only morally wrong, are said in one fell swoop.
On the other hand, the nerves become extremely tense, there is a strong delusion of persecution, they are always in a state of fear, they dare not sleep at night, they are mentally exhausted, and they are wary of everyone.
Of the six suspects, four were shown in the first case, and two were shown in the second — one on each side of the two cases.
This one here in Thornton City is the car thief who ran to the Yungang Branch with a kitchen knife and said that someone wanted to kill him, and the prosecutor has already helped him apply for a psychiatric evaluation.
Compared with the two people, the four people in the first performance, according to the judicial process, are sure to go to prison to serve their sentences, but they are all in a very good mental state, very optimistic, full of hope for the future, and calmly accept the upcoming trial.
The contrast between the two is very stark and the difference is huge.
Zhao Feng and the old classmate both felt that the abnormal behavior of these suspects was most likely related to their hallucinations.
But this situation is still just speculation, there is no substantive evidence, and the two cases have already been settled, so it is difficult for him to mention it to his partner Lao Xu again, so he can only continue to use the break time to investigate with his old classmates.
It's normal to have this dream when you think about these things all the time.
However, after lying back on the bed, Zhao Feng couldn't sleep at all, and his mind kept thinking about the scene of the multi-armed monster flying with him in his dream, and the person in the cave who stretched out his hand to him.
So he got up again, rubbed his face, took his mobile phone, opened the map APP, and began to follow the "route" in the dream to check the real geography in Zihuan Mountain.
Then he was surprised to find that the route in the dream seemed to be really comparable to reality.
And that route is something he hasn't walked in reality.
So when the sky was bright, he finally couldn't help but get dressed and go out, and he didn't drive the unit's car, and he didn't notify Lao Xu, so he took a taxi to Zihuan Mountain by himself.
