love in a dream

01

The night wind howled, like a ghost crying, a silver lightning pierced the night, followed by a muffled thunder.

Tao Zhile suddenly opened his eyes.

It was still a gray mist with a visibility of no more than 3 meters.Even though the sound of the wind was still there, there was no fog surging, and Tao Zhile didn't feel the existence of the wind, but he was used to it.

He was dreaming again.

Still the same scene.

Tao Zhile remembered very clearly that the first time he dreamed that he entered here was a thunderstorm day.That night he had just watched the premiere of the final episode of "The Avengers" with Li Ziming, and he was out of breath crying because of the death of his favorite Iron Man.

After returning home, the tears on his face were covered by the rain, but at least his mother didn't worry too much.

After he washed up and lay down on the bed to calm down and fell asleep, he had such a dream.

You can only see the endless gray fog, and many small light balls of different colors floating in the depths of the gray fog.Perhaps because of the barrier of the gray fog, the color of most of the light spheres tends to be dim, and some even appear completely dark gray.

He woke up normally afterwards, with no other effects other than a little tired.

So once again realizing that he was dreaming, Tao Zhile was already very calm, and he still had the courage to reach out to touch the mist, but just as he raised his hand, another white light flashed suddenly, scaring him He quickly withdrew his hand again.

The rumbling sound sounded again, from far to near, like ten thousand horses galloping.This time, the gray mist that had never flowed began to tremble.The shock made Tao Zhile suddenly start to panic, and he seemed to hear a whimper or two indistinctly.

After deliberating for a few seconds, Tao Zhile restrained his curiosity and decided to stay away from the source of the call.

He quickly left to the opposite place, and after walking aimlessly for a while, the surrounding area began to become silent, and the gray mist also returned to its initial motionlessness.

After a while, Tao Zhile suddenly heard a very low whimper, like a kitten's whimper, soft and weak.Perhaps it was because the voice was very low and weak, so this time he didn't suppress his curiosity anymore, but followed the voice carefully and approached it.

Walking through a thick gray fog, I saw a glowing orange light in front of me, with a large silver net attached to its surface, and the source of the sound was under the silver net.

It was a small bright orange beast with pointed ears drooping slightly, a pair of finger-length antlers growing beside it, and a long and slender tail, like a cat but not like a cat.

Sensing Tao Zhile's approach, the little animal turned its head, a hint of vigilance flashed in its round eyes, and its stretched back was suppressed back due to the restriction of the silver net.

It was obviously a beast cub that had fallen into a trap by mistake. It couldn't escape, so it turned its gaze to Tao Zhile, and the emotion in its eyes changed from vigilant to pitiful.

Human beings have natural curiosity and natural fear of novel things. Obviously, Tao Zhile is captured by this cute beast at this moment.

It's so cute, Tao Zhile's heart softened when she saw those wet deer eyes.

The little beast meowed twice more, and Tao Zhile walked over as if fascinated.

"Want me to save you?" Tao Zhile squatted down, and then nodded as if the little beast understood what he said.

Tao Zhile was no longer surprised by this scene.

Anyway, it's a dream.

It is not surprising that there is nothing in the dream.

The silver net was made of unknown material, it was not as soft as a rope net, but very hard. It took Tao Zhile a lot of effort to untie a slap-sized mouth.

An orange streamer flashed in front of his eyes, so fast that Tao Zhile almost thought he had an illusion.But the empty silver net in his hand told him that it was not an illusion.

The little beast had disappeared without a trace.

"..." Tao Zhile was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and was about to leave the bank and get up.The silver net flew up with a "shoot" as if it had come to life suddenly, wrapping Tao Zhile tightly.

Tao Zhile: "..."

It's okay, it's just a dream anyway, as long as I wake up, it will be fine.

Thinking of this, Tao Zhile also felt relieved, and just lay there, waiting for the dream to wake up.

However, this time when he repeatedly opened his eyes, it was not the familiar bedroom, but suddenly saw two strange men in strange clothes.One is red and the other is white, with long hair and robes, like a red and white impermanence.

"This area is clean. There is not even a level 5 nightmare beast. A dream catcher can take down a level [-] nightmare beast. Let's just keep this one and work here..." The man in red saw Tao Zhile, who was entangled in the net, lost his voice immediately, he frowned slightly, and said in a surprised tone: "What the hell are you?!!!"

"Hello." Tao Zhile twisted his body so that his face could face the person, and said very politely: "I'm not a ghost."

"..." The red-robed man was speechless for two seconds, and then glanced at the white-clothed man beside him. The white-clothed man was calm, his calm white face remained unchanged, but his gaze towards Tao Zhile was very cold and sharp.

Seeing that Tao Zhile felt guilty for a while.

"Little ghost, where are you from?" The man in red robe looked at Tao Zhile, and asked again, "Is it alive or dead?"

Tao Zhile: ...

"Alive." The man in white said.

The man in red raised his eyebrows, he raised his hand, and the entangled Tao Zhile floated towards him uncontrollably.

How the hell can this happen?

Even Tao Zhile, who had seen many dream faces, was surprised by this kind of ability similar to magic.Before he could feel what it was like to take off, he saw the man in the red robe stretch out his hand and put it on top of his head. At this time, Tao Zhile noticed that there were strange patterns embroidered on his cuffs, and the inside of his wrist There is also a silver-white number similar to a serial number-110.

"Your spirit is quite strong, no wonder you can come in here." The red-robed man withdrew his hand after speaking, then turned to the white-clothed man beside him and said, "It should be that you used too much force when you killed the nightmare beast two days ago, which caused the dream world to fluctuate. This little devil slipped in by accident."

Tao Zhile's heart shuddered when he heard this "kill". Before he had time to wonder what the nightmare beast was, he accurately captured the key word "dream world".

So dreams are also a world?

Am I dreaming?What kind of dream world did he enter?

The man in white remained expressionless and did not apologize at all, but waved his hand and untied the dream catcher on Tao Zhile's body.

Tao Zhile also saw the same number - 120 - on the wrist of the man in white at this moment.

110 took back his dream catcher from 120, and asked Tao Zhile as if thinking of something, "You were the one who tied it up? What about the nightmare beast I caught?"

"Huh?" Tao Zhile recalled the strange beast he let go just now, "Was that a nightmare beast just now?"

No one answered him, Tao Zhile lowered his head slightly guilty, "I let you go."

"..."

110 raised his forehead, and after two or three seconds, he suddenly looked at Tao Zhile again, sizing him up and down.Then he seemed to have made a decision, and said, "Since you let him go, I have to let you atone for it."

"Ah? Redemption? Redemption for what crime?" 110 repeated his old trick, and Tao Zhile was thrown into the air like a kite on a string. He almost screamed out the next sentence, but 110 ignored him.

"You asked him to be a dream messenger?" 120 who floated over with them suddenly asked.

Send a dream messenger?

The literal meaning of these three words is not difficult to understand, but Tao Zhile is still full of question marks.

"Yeah." 110 said leisurely: "Could it be that the two of us really do this kind of work by ourselves? Originally, the purpose of catching the nightmare beast was to work, but now that the nightmare beast is gone, we have to use this kid to make up the numbers. I just watched it." , this kid has a strong mental strength, so it’s not for nothing.”

The mentally strong little ghost floated in mid-air. Although he didn't quite understand what he heard, he knew in his heart that he couldn't refuse.

After a while, 110 brought Tao Zhile to a place with thin fog, and the visibility increased from 3 meters to 10 meters.The color of the fog here is closer to pure white, and even has a faint sense of flowing light.He looked forward following the light, and saw a huge tree with a height of ten meters, the whole body was pure silver, glowing with silver light.

Tao Zhile looked up at the giant glowing tree, opened his mouth slightly, and his eyes were filled with amazement.

This is so beautiful.

"Don't read it, you will read it later." 110 snapped his fingers, and Tao Zhile came back to his senses.

He beckoned, and a fist-sized silver-white ball of light sprang out from a certain branch of the silver tree, and flew towards his palm in a vague way, and it had become the size of a palm in front of Tao Zhile.

"Take it."

Tao Zhi was delighted to see him throwing the ball of light, and immediately reached out to catch it, "What is this?"

"Dream." 110 said casually.

"Dream?" Tao Zhile was a little confused again, but 110 didn't care whether he was confused or not, and didn't explain a word, just lifted him up again, and said: "Fanghuali No. 1313."

Now Tao Zhile finally understands what it means to send a dream envoy, and he also roughly understands what his atonement is.

As they moved away from the luminous giant tree, the gray fog in front of them became thicker and thicker, covering the sky and the sun, and everything was gray and white.

"So the dream messenger is the one who sends dreams?" Tao Zhile muttered.

"Correct."

Tao Zhile didn't expect him to answer, just wanted to say that this person should not be a bad person, and was about to ask who he and this white-clothed man are, when he heard 110 say: "It's not stupid, it should be better than Nightmare Beast Use a little."

"..."

After about a minute or two, when the three of them stopped, the scene in front of them suddenly became clear.Tao Zhile stared wide-eyed as the gray mist dissipated, and a nearly silver-white river appeared in front of him. Countless colorful light spots flowed in it, rippling slowly, comparable to the brilliance of the Milky Way, and it was too beautiful to behold.

"Why are you in a daze." 110 patted Tao Zhile, "Go and deliver it, number 1313."

"Huh?" Tao Zhile let out a low cry, and clenched the light ball in his hand, suddenly found that it was real, and it felt good in the hand, cool and smooth, very refreshing, but it was a bit too heavy Yes, his hands are very sore now.

"How... how to send it?"

"Throw it in," 110 said.

After receiving the order, Tao Zhile immediately threw the light ball in his hand, and the moment the light ball was released from his hand, it flew into the river like a fish in water.

He turned his head and met 110's speechless gaze, and 120's slightly frowning brows.

Tao Zhile was in a bad mood, as if he threw it away before he finished speaking 110 words just now.

Just when he was about to find compensation, he heard 110 say again: "Forget it, if you make a mistake, it's a mistake, anyway, it's over after signing the contract."

After speaking, he gave Tao Zhile another sideways glance, probably regretting that he was not stupid just now.

Tao Zhile: ...

How do I feel like I sold myself?

"What..." As soon as the question came out, 110 waved his sleeve impatiently at him, and said, "Okay, let's go back."

Tao Zhile only felt a gust of wind hit him all over his face, and before the darkness completely eroded him, he heard 110's words of advice without any emotion.

"Go to bed early in the future."

Then a sense of weightlessness hit him, pulling him down.

There was a sound of "bang", Tao Zhile woke up from the pain from his back, he frowned and opened his sleepy eyelids.

The field of vision is bright, the sky is bright, and what he sees is the ceiling he is familiar with, and a thread of spider web hanging in the corner is still swaying in the wind.

Tao Zhile blinked, stared blankly at the spider web for two or three seconds, then sat up and looked around.

The bed was covered with blue sheets covered with sleep marks, gray curtains lifted by the wind, and a whole row of Iron Man figures on the bookshelf by the window.

It's his room.

He woke up.
