I'm not a drama god

"you……"

Jian Changsheng tried to hold it in for a long time but couldn't come up with any reason to refute.

The fact that Jack of Diamonds was willing to personally lead them to the Fusion Sect was actually quite a courtesy. As for finding someone to drink with him on the way, this request was indeed not excessive...but Jian Changsheng had never drunk alcohol since he was a child, and faced with this incredible and nonsensical request, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Jian Changsheng was silent for a long time and looked down in front of him.

Three glasses of whiskey were placed on the table. The strong smell penetrated into his nostrils, making him frown subconsciously... He didn't like the smell of alcohol. It reminded him of the father and son of the Yan family who beat and scolded him and his father after getting drunk in the Star Chamber of Commerce, as well as the past that was so depressing that he couldn't breathe. Just smelling this smell made him feel upset and nauseous.

But the Jack of Diamonds was the key to finding Chen Ling. Finally, he gritted his teeth and picked up the glass of liquor in front of him!

"Okay! I'll drink with you..."

Just when Jian Changsheng was about to pinch his nose and drink it all in one gulp, a hand took the wine glass from his hand.

Jian Changsheng turned around in surprise, only to see Jiang Xiaohua, who was wrapped in white bandages, gently shaking the spherical ice cube in the wine glass, then looked up expressionlessly and drank the entire glass of whiskey in one gulp.

Jian Changsheng was stunned, and so was Sun Bumian;

No one expected that Jiang Xiaohua, who had always kept silent, would actually stand up at this moment and finish a glass of whiskey in one gulp... After finishing it, she even licked the ice ball gently like a kitten, and then pursed her lips...

"Hmm...it tastes good..."

With snow-white hair draped over his shoulders, Jiang Xiaohua tilted his head to savor the drink for a while, then picked up the two cups in front of Sun Bumian and himself and drank them all in two gulps.

This time, even the Jack of Diamonds was dumbfounded...

He has been drinking for so many years, but this is the first time he has seen someone drink whiskey like this. You know, the alcohol content of this stuff is not low. But the guy in front of him actually drank a glass in one gulp without changing his expression. He even felt like he wanted more after drinking it.

"Can I drink with you?" Jiang Xiaohua narrowed her eyes slightly, her cheeks flushed slightly, and she seemed a little dazed.

"But we have no money... You have to pay for the wine."

Diamond J was stunned for more than ten seconds before he came back to his senses. He looked at Jiang Xiaohua in surprise and suddenly laughed:

"No problem, of course no problem! I didn't expect there'd be such an interesting guy among the six-character generation... Aduo, I've also paid for these three glasses of wine! Just put it on my account!"

The bartender who had been hiding in the warehouse staggered out, glanced here, and then lowered his head to make the accounts without saying a word.

"Meihua, are you really okay?" Sun Bumian asked in a low voice.

"It's okay..." Jiang Xiaohua rarely smiled. He touched his stomach, "It feels warm after drinking it... I feel very comfortable..."

Sun Bumian silently gave him a thumbs up.

"When do we set off?" Jian Changsheng asked immediately.

Diamond J stood up slowly, drank the whiskey in front of him, and then burped loudly:

"……at any time."

……

The howling storm roared under the chaotic sky.

The hem of the bright red robe fluttered in the wind, the bright red earrings shone faintly in the dimness, and a figure walked slowly along the path in the storm. The black trees on both sides swayed in the wind, like thousands of slender hands swaying...

"Is this... a dream?"

A hint of clarity emerged in Chen Ling's hazy eyes. He looked around Xi Zhou in surprise, his black hair fluttering in the wind.

The terrifying storm was like an eggshell, circling in the distant nothingness. The dark blue sky seemed to be filtered, exuding an extremely oppressive sense of loneliness. Chen Ling walked on the mountain trail, feeling as if she had been forgotten by the world...

Chen Ling climbed along the path against the storm, trying to recall everything in her mind.

Chen Ling vaguely remembered that he was reading late at night in the fusionist's room. He had only read less than one-tenth of the books and notes on fusion theory before he fell into a deep sleep... When he regained consciousness, he was already here.

He hadn't had a dream for a long time. He was suddenly in the middle of such a storm, and even regained consciousness in his dream, which made him keenly aware of something strange.

Chen Ling walked cautiously along the path. It seemed that there were only the rustling of trees and the howling of the storm around him. It was as if he was the only bright red in this dark and lonely world...

As Chen Ling turned a corner, the path extended upwards into the hills. Black fallen leaves fluttered in the sky at the end, like an invisible hand waving gently to him.

Chen Ling's brows furrowed more and more. After hesitating for a moment, he strode up the stairs.

As he stepped onto the last step, the scene in front of him suddenly became clear... Only then did Chen Ling see clearly that he was actually on an isolated island suspended in the air.

The place where he was standing now was the highest hill on the island. The black jungle spread in all directions to the west and was finally submerged in the dark night, like the black forest that swallowed Little Red Riding Hood in the fairy tale.

On the other side of the island, there seemed to be some buildings, but Chen Ling couldn't see them clearly because of the flying leaves.

"Storm Island..." Chen Ling immediately realized where he was and his face looked extremely ugly.

The Storm Island came here following my "thoughts". I just glanced at it at that time, but I was dragged here in my dream?

But after Mr. Ye reminded me, I hadn't thought about it at all in the past two days. Why did it come to me again? ?

The faint murmur, along with the storm, entered Chen Ling's ears, and Chen Ling turned suddenly on the hill.

"Who? Who's talking?"

The black forest swayed in the wind, and dense leaves were swept up into the sky. In a trance, a ghostly black shadow seemed to be outlined... It was so huge that it almost covered the entire island. The fallen leaves all over the sky were rolling in the air, like the end of the world.

"[The nightmare of the lonely island in the ever-sleeping storm, the strange ghost at the end of thoughts]." Chen Ling thought of the words that Teacher Ye had given him, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Si Zai, what do you want to tell me?"

The rustling sound of leaves came from the air, and the whispers in Chen Ling's mind became clearer.

But just as he was about to hear the pronunciation clearly, everything around him suddenly shattered, and Chen Ling's consciousness continued to sink, first falling back to the stage of the theater, then froze for a moment, and continued to fall...

After a while, Chen Ling suddenly woke up from his desk!

The pen in my hand fell to the ground with a click. The kerosene lamp on the table had gone out at some point. The faint light in the distance gradually dispelled the night, and the sky outside the corridor was dimmed with a fish belly white...

Chen Ling sat alone in front of the dim desk, lost in thought.
