Dream Guide - #337 - Chapter 337 Not Relatives
Ruxue possesses powerful spiritual power. How this was formed is unknown to Aoki, just like where the crow’s spiritual power comes from is unknown.
But after Ruxue swallowed Xia Wenyuan’s shadow, Aoki seemed to understand where the cat’s spiritual power came from.
The spirit of Xia Wenyuan’s shadow is not very strong. I don’t know how many such consciousnesses he had to swallow before he became the white cat he is now. And before the invasion of consciousness occurs, where does this cat go to devour the conscious body?
What method did the old lady of the Cuan family use back then to allow a cat to swallow the consciousness and gain spiritual power? And where did she get so many consciousness bodies?
It’s a bit scary to think about it this way. Could the cannibalistic souls contained in the unofficial histories of the past actually be real?
Qingmu couldn’t help but think of the records about the mulberry tree in the Wuzhong County Chronicle: It is more than ten feet high, with a giant crow perched on it, shaped like a falcon, and eats people’s souls at night…
At this time, two crows called “croak” came from the dense bushes of the tall mulberry tree in the dream.
Xia Wenyuan was so shocked that he fell from the branches. The branch he was on was very high. Generally, if someone falls from such a high place in a dream, the person will wake up, or at least the dream will change.
But Aoki really wanted to see what the crow in the tree looked like. Since Xia Wenyuan can dream, it means that there is a crow in his memory. At this time, his subconscious mind was deeply sorting out memories, and he could sort out the long-forgotten memories that existed in the corner. Judging from his frightened look, he must have not only heard the sound of a crow, but also seen its appearance.
Qingmu protected Xia Wenyuan, letting him fall to the ground lightly instead of falling at a high speed. In this way, his brain will not think that he will fall to death, and he will not exit the dream.
Sure enough, Xia Wenyuan did not stop after landing, but ran away. He looked back as he ran, fear in his eyes.
The leaves rustled and trembled, and a huge crow flew out, its wings spread out, covering the sky and the sun, casting a huge shadow on the ground.
It chased Xia Wenyuan with its croaking sound, which sounded like a ghostly owl coming from the distant sky.
Xia Wenyuan said that when he was a child, he went to the mulberry garden with his father, but he was naughty and ran around in other people’s gardens, making it difficult for his father to find him.
I mentioned this paragraph to prove how big the mulberry garden was. Of course Xia Wenyuan would not say something scandalous like secretly climbing up someone else’s tree to pick mulberries. After all, he had also studied etiquette in poetry and calligraphy. Especially in that era, that tree was Even when it is regarded as a symbol of the family.
From this dream, we can probably restore the facts of the year – Xia Wenyuan climbed a tree to pick mulberries for fun, disturbed the crows on the tree, and ended up scaring the shit out of him.
The size of the crow is magnified by Xia Wenyuan. The emotions left in our hearts when we were young are always infinitely magnified by us, especially fear. If there really was such a big bird, it would have been regarded as a monster long ago, and the mulberry garden would have become famous.
When Aoki looked carefully, he found that the crow’s figure, the color of its fur, the shape of its head, and especially its claws, seemed familiar.
He glanced at the white cat next to him, and that cat happened to be looking at him.
“Do you think so too?” he asked.
The cat nodded.
At this time, Qingmu didn’t care whether it would be painful for Xia Wenyuan to be unable to exit the dream in this fear. He summoned the coal boss with a thought.
When the coal boss first came out, he didn’t look at the crow that looked like a roc in the sky. Instead, he focused on the white cat.
“Oh, Ruxue, I see you again!” The coal boss cheered, “I’m so glad that your appearance has not changed, you are still so beautiful! Uh, no! You are more beautiful than before! No words are enough to describe me at this moment Praise for you! It’s great that you weren’t affected by that silly cat like Shen Ran!”
Ruxue turned her head away, looking indifferent.
The coal boss wanted to say something else, but Aoki interrupted him and said: “Put your praise aside first and look at the sky.”
“Uh?” The coal boss was stunned, and he looked up and saw the big bird.
In Xia Wenyuan’s dream at this moment, he was running non-stop, and the crows in the sky were chasing him non-stop. But looking at it from the perspective of Aoki and Coal Boss, it’s like watching a movie, and the movie is holographic, so you can enjoy the picture from all angles. Although people and birds are moving, they will not move away from their eyes, nor will they be far away.
“What is that?” asked the coal boss.
“What do you think?” Aoki said.
“Did he dream about me?” The coal boss obviously also saw that the crow looked very similar to him.
“No, he dreamed of another bird, which he should have seen when he was a child.”
“What?” The coal boss was shocked, “No, no, no, it’s impossible! Although you humans think that we black birds all look similar, we can tell them apart clearly. Look at that beak, those hands, those feathers, although There are a lot of problems with the details, but you can still tell that it was me, or at least very similar to me. You mean, when he was a child, he saw a crow that looked very similar to me?”
Aoki nodded and said: “So far it looks like this.”
“What does this mean?”
“I don’t know either. Maybe this crow has something to do with you, for example, is it your relative?”
At this time, Xia Wenyuan seemed unable to run. He stumbled and fell, turning over and lying on his back, his eyes just meeting the eyes of the crow in the sky.
Where Xia Wenyuan focuses his attention, he will reveal the details through memory. So when their eyes met, the details of the crow’s eyes and gaze became clear. This shows that when Xia Wenyuan was stealing mulberries as a child, he probably looked at the crow on the tree.
The coal boss shouted: “Those eyes! Oh, those eyes! Oh my God! Those are not relatives, they are clearly me!”
Ruxue meowed. Yes, it’s just a meow, without any other meaning.
When the coal boss heard Ruxue’s cry, he calmed down and stopped shouting. He stroked the feathers on his chest with his wings in a gentlemanly manner and said, “Ah, maybe that gentleman has seen me before, but in the name of Qingmu , I promise, I have never scared him!”
Aoki asked: “Why in my name?”
Crow said: “Oh, I just borrow it, you won’t mind, right?”
Of course Aoki wouldn’t mind, but what’s important now is that if he doesn’t go out, Xia Wenyuan will really be scared to death. You must know that most of the mental power supporting this dream comes from Qingmu, and Xia Wenyuan cannot retreat at all. If a person has a nightmare and cannot wake up, he will really be scared to death.
When Qingmu exited the dream, he saw sweat on Xia Wenyuan’s forehead.
Xia Wenyuan woke up faintly and looked at Qingmu with a questioning look in his eyes. He didn’t know that the shadow in the dream had been eaten by the white cat, and it was even less likely that he knew that the white cat was actually the orange cat lying at their feet. He seemed to be full and sleeping soundly at the moment.
