Chapter 162: Purgatory of True Heart (2)

After eating, the sky outside gradually darkened, and the sound of the wind howling outside was extremely terrifying.

Seeing that the room was getting dark, Tang Ran got up and turned on the light in the room, which warmed up Zhao Mu's depressed heart.

The two of them hugged each other and sat leaning against each other in the bedroom, chatting aimlessly.

Although it was only Tang Ran who was talking most of the time, Zhao Mu just stopped silently and Tang Ran chatted about their past.

In Zhao Mu's eyes, this Tang Ran seems to be no different from the real Tang Ran. There is nothing wrong with his personality, memory, or even the conversation with Zhao Mu. When talking about the past, he will show a warm smile. .

The reason why Zhao Mu didn't speak was not only to confirm his guess, but also because he was afraid that he would say something that the other party could not answer.

For example, why is it snowing outside, and there are no people at all.And what exactly is this place, and why it seems to be isolated from the world but can have water and electricity.There is also no way to go outside, but why Tang Ran can move countless ingredients from the seemingly empty kitchen to cook.

If Zhao Mu asked about these reasons, this illusion would be shattered immediately.But this is what Zhao Mu is most afraid of. Although he is in an illusion now, he can find his own warmth and comfort in this illusion.

But once he breaks through this illusion, he will be greeted with snowstorms and endless dangers and sufferings.

So he cautiously and carefully maintained the beauty of this illusion, for fear that he would accidentally be dragged out of this illusion.

In this way, as the two of them talked more and more tired, they fell asleep directly on the bed after a while.

However, Zhao Mu, who was enjoying the comfortable and warm feeling, woke up suddenly at the next moment, and the bone-piercing cold all around instantly woke Zhao Mu up.

wrong!

The warmth in front of my eyes is like Nankey Yimeng, and after waking up from the dream in the blink of an eye, it will be the coldest hell.It was no longer a warm hut in front of me, but a dilapidated, dilapidated wooden hut full of holes, and this kind of hut was even more crumbling under the attack of wind and snow, so that even if Zhao Mu lived in this kind of less than twenty Curled up in a small square meter room, it can't relieve the bone-chilling cold at all.

The flustered Zhao Mu quickly got up from the ground, only to find that his body had already been frozen by the horrific cold, and it took a lot of effort to even stand up, and the dark and damp house made Zhao Mu extremely painful.

But the most serious blow is the sense of loss that the dream has failed.

He understood that the things he saw before were nothing but hallucinations he had created in the icy world, and maybe if he didn't wake up again, he would really be completely killed by this terrifying severe cold.

In addition to the cold, Zhao Mu also felt very hungry, as if the delicious meals eaten in the illusion were just phantoms, which made Zhao Mu unable to feel the slightest sense of fullness.

Zhao Mu, suffering from hunger and cold, was more desolate than lost.

In order not to destroy the meritorious space that he finally obtained, he fell into such a terrifying trial out of recklessness.

If the test in the mental hospital is to let him try to accept the feeling of falling from the sky to the ground, then the test in the ice and snow is to let him wander between heaven and hell.

But the horror in the mental hospital is fake, Zhao Mu is sure that the real self will never be so miserable.

But now the happiness in this world of ice and snow is fake, the only real one is himself who is about to lose his life in the severe cold.

This more severe blow made Zhao Mu almost collapse, and for the first time Zhao Mu had the idea of ​​giving up...

"Come out!" Suddenly there was a small voice from outside the door, so small that Zhao Mu thought he was just hallucinating.

"Who spoke?" Zhao Mu hurriedly asked.

"come out!"

Zhao Mu, who was about to go to the door, fell to the ground directly because he was not used to his already stiff body.

The next second, Zhao Mu was about to get up again, and the darkness in front of him had completely disappeared, only a familiar face was looking at him with concern.

"Honey, are you having a nightmare?" Tang Ran asked distressedly.

But Zhao Mu still looked around with lingering fear, and confirmed that he had returned to the warm and comfortable hut, and then he hugged Tang Ran with peace of mind, completely calmed down.

Just when Zhao Mu thought that everything that happened before was just a nightmare, there was another faintly audible voice outside the rental house: "Come out!"

"Who is it!" Zhao Mu asked in shock and anger.

And the voice outside the door still came from time to time: "Come out!"

Zhao Mu was about to get out of bed to find out who made the voice, but Tang Ran suddenly hugged Zhao Mu, begging bitterly: "Don't go, why don't you stay here, please don't open the door. Open the door. You'll lose everything in front of you."

Zhao Mu didn't get out of bed to look, but worriedly comforted the panicked Tang Ran, and let out a long sigh.

So what if he went out, continued to work hard in the endless wind and snow, and then became a cold dead body?What's the point of breaking the illusion by yourself and dying in pain in the end?
So, let's muddle along and guard this beautiful world with peace of mind.

However, what is different from before is that Zhao Mu no longer dared to fall asleep without any worries like before, because he was afraid that after he fell asleep, he would appear in the dark and cold cabin again, enduring the cold, hunger and endless suffering. of despair.

Although there is a sense of discord everywhere in this hut, these discords are at least beneficial, such as the ingredients that came out of nowhere, and Tang Ran never took a step out of the house from the beginning to the end.

Even the heavy snow outside is getting heavier and heavier, and there has been no sign of stopping.

In this way, Zhao Mu lived in this hut. Although sometimes he would suddenly feel cold, but sometimes he would also feel suddenly hot and stuffy.It's as if I'm both in the stove and in the ice cellar.

Fortunately, these feelings were fleeting, and there was nothing that disturbed Zhao Mu.

Although the voice calling for Zhao Mu to come out is still there every night, Zhao Mu also chooses to ignore that voice, and after a long time he gets used to falling asleep in that voice.

I don't know how long it took, but even Zhao Mu became vague about the concept of time. It seemed like a day later, or a year later, Tang Ran suddenly smiled at Zhao Mu in a mysterious way: "Honey, I I have some good news to tell you."

"Huh?" Zhao Mu was puzzled.

After all, the two of them lived in this small rental house regardless of whether they ate or lived, and had never set foot in the outside world at all. As for what they needed, they all appeared out of thin air, and Zhao Mu didn't think there was anything that needed surprises.

"Honey, you're going to be a father." Tang Ran suddenly said with a mysterious face.

Zhao Mu was taken aback for a moment, and then he had mixed feelings in his heart, not knowing whether it was joy or sorrow.

"This……"

Tang Ran also saw that Zhao Mu's reaction was very strange, but he didn't say much.

......

The time that followed moved forward rapidly like a tightly wound clock. Zhao Mu was still facing Tang Ran's belly growing day by day. The human child smiled at Zhao Mu.

Although in Zhao Mu's memory, the two of them spent every second together, but this memory is as illusory as if constructed out of thin air. Like the movie, there is no sense of substitution at all.

But seeing the little girl in his arms, Zhao Mu still fully felt a loving father.

"Honey, give our child a name." Tang Ran smiled weakly.

Zhao Mu pondered for a while, then smiled and said, "I'm a big bastard, I don't know what to call me, I'd better let you come."

But Tang Ran smiled, and then said: "Well, I think our child...maybe his name is Zhao Zheng."

"Zhao Zheng?" Zhao Mu asked suspiciously.

"That's right, I hope our daughter can fly freely in the sky like a kite." Tang Ran said with a casual smile.

It can be said that the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.Hearing this, Zhao Mu's heart sank immediately, but he recalled the trial that he had long forgotten in his heart.

There is nothing wrong with living alone in this dilapidated house for a lifetime, avoiding the dangers and trials that could kill you at any time.But my daughter can't curl up forever in a rental house with a size of tens of square meters like myself.

Zhao Mu had no worries before, so he had no goal to fight for. Even if he lived in the hut for the rest of his life, it didn't matter as long as he didn't get hungry, cough or cold.But now Zhao Mu also needs to think about his daughter, and he can't let her be trapped in the small house for the rest of his life like him.

"Of course..." Zhao Mu said suddenly.

"What's the matter, dear?" Tang Ran, who was making Zheng'er happy, was interrupted by Zhao Muyi, and immediately asked in doubt.

But Zhao Mu said suddenly: "I have decided, I must go out, I want to see the outside world!"

......

After Zhao Mu finished saying this, Tang Ran kept thinking about it, as if he was preoccupied, holding Zheng'er sullenly, not knowing what to think.

That night, after Zhao Mu coaxed Tang Ran and his daughter to sleep, he sat quietly on the sofa not far from the door, coldly waiting for the voice that sounded on time every night.

"Hmph, it's a demon or a ghost, come after me. At worst, I've been nesting in this small room for a year. Today I'll see who can stop me." Zhao Mu said viciously.

While Zhao Mu was sitting quietly, the voice that must be heard every night slowly came from outside the door: "Come out! Come out!"
