The old man was not anxious at all. He tapped his fingers lightly on the table. At this time, he returned to his usual wisdom. "You are right. I think it requires some conditions. For example, it needs to be used in a specific place.
Some special way to release the contents inside. You should be able to see that the character of Dragon Chaser is very cautious. It is in line with his style that he did not put the things directly inside. But I think he must have
Certain hints, and the method is hidden in them.”
"What could that be?"
"I don't know, but I think we are not far away from that. It's just that there are some things that we haven't figured out yet. When we do, maybe we can find a way."
There is no nutrition in these words at all, and it seems to be perfunctory. However, it seems that this matter can only be shelved, after all, the solution is not so easy to come up with.
At this time, I suddenly remembered something that I had forgotten for a long time, which was about the dark shadow that had been following me. I could not get rid of it whether in a dream or in reality. Shuiyue once asked me to ask the old man, saying that he
He would give me a satisfactory answer, but I never got the chance. Now that I have finally had a comfortable life, I naturally want to ask clearly.
When the old man heard my question, he was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed drastically, and finally he lowered his head and became silent.
"Old guy, what is going on? What is that thing that has been following me? I don't seem to have provoked anything!" I asked impatiently.
The old man remained silent, with a very complicated expression. When I was already impatient with waiting, he said, "That's unknown, it's a disaster."
"I know, I've heard this for more than a hundred times. You should tell me what it is, how ominous it is, and what kind of disaster it will bring!"
"You really want to know?" He stared at me.
"Yeah." I nodded heavily.
"Well, since you want to know, let me tell you. That black shadow is: a nightmare."
"Nightmare?" I looked at him doubtfully, my head still not turning around. What does this nightmare mean? That thing can bring nightmares to people.
As a result, the old man shook his head and said: "No, I mean, it is a nightmare in itself, a living nightmare."
The old man went on to talk about it. It turned out that this nightmare is also called "dream ghost", which is a real thing. According to legend, nightmares can travel between people's dreams and reality. It can turn people's dreams into reality, and it can also make reality
It becomes an illusion. It hides in the dark side of people and is a very evil and strange creature. People cannot see it, but sometimes they can see it through some special ways. Anyone who sees it is unknown and strange.
The beginning of disaster.
No matter where you go, you can't get rid of it. It follows you like a shadow. When you think everything you do is a dream, maybe it has become a reality.
I suddenly remembered the first time I went to the Taiji Tomb in Henan. When I woke up, I found myself at home, but everything I experienced really happened. I have never been able to figure out the situation. Could it be that it was all a nightmare?
Is it causing trouble?
I shuddered, it was so scary, because nightmares portend bad, negative, and terrible things. If I accidentally kill someone while dreaming, will I really become a murderer when I wake up?
Is it a crime? It makes people shudder just thinking about it.
I quickly asked the old man if there was any way to avoid being entangled by this nightmare. But the old man shook his head and said that unless it leaves on its own, you will not be able to get rid of its shackles until you die.
After finishing speaking, the old man suddenly sighed and said: "Do you know why I want to pursue this matter to the end? Because this nightmare is also one of the reasons. I have experienced what you are experiencing now. In fact, what I experienced back then
Everyone involved in this matter has been troubled by it. I originally thought it was gone, but I didn’t expect it to appear again. It’s been fifty years, is it a new reincarnation?”
I couldn't understand what the old man was talking about, but I got some information from it. He had been troubled by this damn nightmare before, but then it disappeared again for some reason, and it was the same this time. It suddenly happened again for some reason.
appeared, and became my "personal butler". In short, one thing is clear, once it appears, nothing good will happen.
Damn it, this "good luck" happened to me again, and I couldn't help but feel aggrieved. No, it should be said that it was with me from the beginning, and nothing good has happened to me since then.
The old man hesitated for a moment, and seemed to have made up his mind. He opened the drawer and took out his exquisite wooden box. "This is for you. From now on, no matter where you go, you must carry it with you at all times."
No matter what you encounter around you, you can’t throw it away, you know?”
"What does this mean?" I looked at him confused. Didn't he value this thing as much as his life? Why did he give it to me suddenly? Could it be that he had read too many novels or movies and passed it on to me as a family heirloom?
The old man did not explain the reason, but said impatiently: "Why are you talking so much nonsense? If I give it to you, just take it. Can I still hurt you?"
"That's not the case. I just feel strange. Why did you give it to me? Is it to distribute the inheritance?"
"You little bastard, just curse me! Let me tell you, the fate of four generations of our Wang family is on this box. You must remember my words, otherwise, even if I die, I will come back to find you, you bastard."
Settle accounts."
"Okay, okay, you threaten me with death at every turn, how can you be a grandfather." I had no choice but to put the box away, even though I was a little reluctant, thinking about having to carry a dead hand with me every day from now on,
Even though it belonged to my great-grandfather, I still felt a little uncomfortable. But since it was the old man's request and he said it so solemnly, he must have a reason, so I could only take it seriously.
"Okay, little bastard, I've told you what should be said and what shouldn't be said, what can and cannot be said. You shouldn't have any problems now, right?"
Indeed, the fact that the old man was willing to tell me so many secrets this time was beyond my expectation, but I think he still has some core secrets that he has not told me. But I know his character, and if I continue to ask questions, it will only arouse his anger.
It's time to stop getting angry.
I rolled my eyes and said, "Of course not. I have another most important question now, which is also related to the lifeline of our Wang family. If I don't ask this question clearly, I won't be able to eat or sleep well."
