catch the dream

The two walked through the mall. Zhou Sheng stopped and looked at a family of men's clothing that was ridiculously expensive. Yu Hao was afraid that he would buy it again, and this one would cost two thousand, so he hurriedly said, "I don't think it's as good-looking as Kandinsky's." .”

"You actually know?" Zhou Sheng was very surprised.

"I like his abstract paintings very much." Yu Hao said, "Poor students also have the right to like art."

Zhou Sheng replied: "I also like it very much, don't buy it, let's go."

When he was leaving, Zhou Sheng suddenly said with emotion: "The money you spent was earned with your own hands, what about me? I'm still raised by the family, so I don't have the face to say this in front of you."

Yu Hao laughed, and replied, "What does it matter?"

"Guess, whose dream was the first I entered?" Zhou Sheng turned his head to Yu Hao and said.

Yu Hao didn't expect that Zhou Sheng would suddenly bring up this matter unexpectedly, and he was stunned.

"Your father's." Yu Hao thought for a long time before finally saying.

"Full marks." Zhou Sheng showed a gentle smile, and gave Yu Hao his thumbs up. The two of them knew each other at this moment. Zhou Sheng's happiness lies in having a friend who can truly understand him.

During the Spring Festival, people came and went in the shopping plaza, and it was very lively. What Yu Hao thought was that if he kept working part-time for the past few days, he might be able to earn more than 1000, which would be enough for him to do it for a month.

They sat down at the cake shop on the first floor, Zhou Sheng ordered a cake gift box, and was going to visit Chen Yekai and Professor Lin later, he took coffee and handed it to Yu Hao, the two sat and drank for a while .Zhou Sheng said again: "When I was young, I went swimming in the river once and picked up this thing in the mud."

Yu Hao said "Mmm", and his eyes shifted from Jin Huan to Zhou Sheng's eyes.

"Golden Crow Ring." Yu Hao had already remembered it today, he guessed that this accessory was closely related to Zhou Sheng's strange ability, and it really was.

Zhou Sheng raised his wrist and turned his head to look at it. On his wrist was tied the red rope that Yu Hao wove for him.

Yu Hao suddenly remembered, flipping through his phone, the information he checked today was on it, and he showed it to Zhou Sheng: "Look?"

Zhou Sheng glanced at his phone, and said, "I checked it a long time ago, it's definitely it."

Above is the treasure of the Jinsha Museum in Chengdu, the Jinsha Sun Wheel.

Yu Hao said, "When did you know you had this ability?"

"Seven years old." Zhou Sheng replied, "It took me a lot of effort to figure out what happened."

Rather than saying that Zhou Sheng possessed this ability, it is better to say that he was awakened by the Golden Crow Wheel. When he was a child, he was often subjected to domestic violence by his parents. His father beat him without saying a word, and his mother used all kinds of sarcasm, both verbal and physical. As a child, Zhou Sheng also became irritable, sensitive, and irritable.Every night, I hide alone in my room and fall asleep.

One day, in his dream, he saw a round of gorgeous, blazing sun erupting with raging fire. The energy flowed and radiated outward, showing the shape of this golden black wheel.Jin Wulun told him that this is the world of consciousness, which reflects the collection of impressions that everyone gets from reality.

"It can talk?!" Yu Hao was shocked.

The waiter put the packaged cake on the table, and the two stopped talking for a while. After he left, Zhou Sheng said: "It can talk, but not in the usual sense. When you stand in front of it, When receiving its flame, some information is directly... instilled into the consciousness."

Yu Hao stared blankly at Zhou Sheng.

"So I know, it's a 'gate'. Step through it, and my mission begins."

The Golden Crow Wheel in the dream was huge and radiated golden light in all directions, just like a sci-fi movie "Stargate" I watched when I was a child. Zhou Sheng was standing on a long bridge, and the Golden Crow Wheel was in the shape of a ring, horizontally in the center of the bridge. , like a door leading to another dimension.

"You stepped over it." Yu Hao said.

"It made me step over it, so I appeared in my dad's dream." Zhou Sheng replied.

Yu Hao showed a surprised expression, Zhou Sheng began to recall his father's dream, it was a battlefield filled with countless bloodthirsty beasts, bloody severed limbs, graves... raging wild beasts everywhere, Zhou Sheng stood on the battlefield when he was a child I was at a loss for a moment.

"He used to be a soldier." Zhou Sheng said, "After changing his job, he became a chef. The beasts in the dream have a clear hierarchy, and a beast king commands all the birds and beasts, which symbolizes the impression that power is supreme in his heart."

At that time, Zhou Sheng was only seven years old, and it was impossible for him to be the opponent of a group of hideous monsters, but fortunately, it was his father's dream in the final analysis.In the dream, there was a protective halo around his son, maybe it was the "love" that Zhou Laichun never said.

When he said this, Zhou Sheng's expression was very complicated. He tried to explore his father's spiritual world, although he didn't know what it meant at first.

"So your father..." Yu Hao said, "Under your influence on his spiritual world, he completed the transformation of his personality in reality."

Zhou Sheng casually said "Mm", and played with the paper coffee cup in his hand with his tall and beautiful fingers, removed the heat-insulated paper cup holder, tore it apart, and then put it back together like a puzzle.

"You defeated that beast king?" Yu Hao asked.

"Of course not." Zhou Sheng leaned back in the chair, glanced at Yu Hao's eyes, and replied, "In my dad's conscious impression, I will never be able to defeat him. So this is impossible for me of."

Yu Hao understood, he proposed another idea.

"Then, if one day your achievement surpasses his, the beast king in your dream will no longer be your opponent."

Zhou Sheng said boredly: "I thought about it, my power comes from the dream owner's understanding of me, which is very reasonable. But I don't have much interest anymore."

"What about his self-personality in the dream?" Yu Hao asked, "The exiled personality."

Zhou Sheng said: "He has never been exiled, unlike you, the Beastmaster is his own incarnation. The Beastmaster is the truest self, but my invasion also played some role..."

In his father's dream, Zhou Sheng defeated many corrupted monsters, so his real father, Zhou Laichun, gradually began to decide to completely cut off the muddy life in front of him.This move contributed to his final decision to divorce his wife and be himself.

So this behavior further aroused Zhou Sheng's mother's hysteria. When Zhou Sheng said this, there was guilt in his eyes.

"If it were me," Yu Hao said, "I wish they could have their own lives, but please don't use me as a cover and say 'Parents are not divorcing because of you'."

"Really." Zhou Sheng smiled and said, "Later, I entered my mother's dream again."

Yu Hao was very curious about the power of the Golden Crow Wheel, whoever's dream could be entered into anyone's dream?

"In her dream." Zhou Sheng explained lightly, "I was not protected, and almost died."

Yu Hao: "..."

Yu Hao knew what this meant, maybe Zhou Sheng's mother didn't love him very much.

"So when you pass through the Golden Crow Wheel..."

"Yes." Zhou Sheng said, "Golden Crow Wheel told me that as long as I pass through it, I can enter other people's dreams, but the premise must be that this person has had an impression of me, and in his impression, there has been my dream." Existence, this channel can be opened smoothly. Later, I also entered the dreams of several people, including my high school 'boss', the head teacher, and my deskmate..."

After his parents divorced, Zhou Sheng gradually began to understand the world of consciousness. At first, he just wandered in the dreams of some people as if he was traveling, out of a curiosity-seeking mentality. The dreams showed a variety of forms, including distorted reality reflections, including tall buildings shuttled by monsters. In the building, there are scenes from ancient TV dramas that seem familiar, and there are gray and white hills that do not grow a blade of grass.

Zhou Sheng is very clever, and gradually connects reality with the elements presented in the conscious world and interprets them.Most people's dreams appear to be chaotic, full of fragmented impressions, and gradually, he begins to get used to it, and no longer has much interest in dreams.

Even with this ability, in reality he is still in a mess. After the college entrance examination, Zhou Sheng relied on sports points to get into school. He originally planned to put away the Golden Crow Wheel after entering university.But not long ago, by accident, he met Yu Hao.

Yu Hao understood and nodded.

Zhou Sheng said: "When we met for the first time, 'it' told me that since I met it, there is a mission that I need to complete in the future."

Zhou Sheng rubbed his head, showing a dazed expression, then thought for a while, and said, "Maybe my mission is to save you."

Yu Hao: "You clearly know it's not."

"Whatever." Zhou Sheng said boredly, "Anyway, I don't care much about other people's dreams. After this time, I won't use the Golden Crow Wheel again."

Yu Hao asked seriously: "Does it appear in your dreams every night?"

"It will only appear when I want to dream about it." Zhou Sheng said, "Otherwise, I won't be driven insane. How can I sleep under the sun every night?"

"Did the Golden Crow Wheel say anything else?" Yu Hao laughed.

"It only made a sound when I saw it for the first time." Zhou Sheng replied, "The voices in the dream were all feelings, and I couldn't distinguish between male and female. No matter how I asked, it didn't make a sound anymore."

Yu Hao still had many questions, but he always reminded himself not to annoy Zhou Sheng with questions, he could only suppress himself.

"Why are you smiling so happily?" Zhou Sheng said again, "Let's go, that's it, let me explain to you. I think you should be quite curious."

Rather than saying that Yu Hao is curious, it is better to say that Zhou Sheng also needs to talk about it. This matter has been held in his heart for too long. It has been held in his heart for more than ten years. Today, there is finally someone who can listen to him talk about it, and Zhou Sheng immediately grows up. Let out a sigh of relief.

With one hand in his trouser pocket, Zhou Sheng walked ahead with his bag and snacks on his back. Yu Hao followed behind him. Zhou Sheng looked at the windows on both sides of the mall from time to time, but Yu Hao kept looking at Zhou Sheng.In the past two days, his mood was extremely complicated. He found that he seemed to like him more and more. If it was just a feeling of love before, it had now become an uncontrollable admiration.

What's more terrible is that it's not Zhou Sheng's appearance or hormones that attract him, but Yu Hao's obsessive and inescapable emotion. This undercurrent of emotion is given to Zhou Sheng in reality, but also to the dream Lina's heroic general.

"where to?"

"To see your future boyfriend." Zhou Sheng said.

"He's not my boyfriend!" Yu Hao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Zhou Sheng: "So it's about the future, no, Yu Hao, do you know who I'm talking about?"

Yu Hao: "..."

The two came to the hospital where Chen Yekai was, and reported their names for registration. Yu Hao was shocked when he knocked on the door and entered the ward.

Liang Jinmin lay unconscious on the bed with tubes all over his body. Chen Yekai got up from the hospital bed exhaustedly when he heard the sound.

Chen Yekai was completely different from his usual self, and Zhou Sheng was also frightened. His complexion was very bad, his hair was messy, his beard grew a little unshaven, and he was lying on his side on the hospital bed, like a decadent patient.

"Come?" Chen Yekai rubbed his face, tried to wake up, and said, "Why didn't you say hello first?"

Yu Hao said, "I thought..."

Chen Yekai said: "I'll wash my face first, I didn't sleep well last night, and my wife just came back from the ICU ward."

Zhou Sheng immediately said, "Let's come over and have a look, and then we'll be leaving."

Zhou Sheng signaled Yu Hao to put down the snack and go back, but Chen Yekai said in the bathroom, "Sit down, it's okay."

This is the best suite in the hospital. Yu Hao sat down on the sofa, but Zhou Sheng went to observe Liang Jinmin in front of the hospital bed. Liang Jinmin's forehead and eyes were covered with gauze, a nasal feeding tube was inserted, and a heart rate monitor was turned on beside him.

Zhou Sheng signaled Yu Hao to come over and take a look, and pointed at the corner of Liang Jinmin's eyes.

Yu Hao: "?"

Zhou Sheng said in a low voice: "Being beaten by her husband, the car accident can't be like this."

Yu Hao: "..."

In an instant, Yu Hao remembered the last time he saw Liang Jinmin, the scene where she was wearing sunglasses and meeting Chen Yekai at the conservatory coffee.Reminiscent of the former female teacher who occasionally wore sunglasses when she came to class, explaining that she had dark circles under her eyes because she didn't sleep well last night.

Zhou Sheng didn't say anything else, and sat down beside Yu Hao. After Chen Yekai washed up, he went to the tea table to open the snacks, and said, "You bought it for me?"

"The patient won't be able to eat either." Zhou Sheng said.

"That is." Chen Yekai forced a smile and said, "But now, the situation has stabilized."

Yu Hao asked, "Is it serious?"

Chen Yekai opened the box a few times with a heavy heart, and replied: "Concussion, deep coma, observe the situation."

It was almost dusk, Chen Yekai started to gobble up some snacks, Yu Hao went to get him a glass of water, the ward was quiet for a while.

"Have you not eaten since last night?" Yu Hao asked again.

Chen Yekai nodded briefly and drank water.

"The teacher's wife is like an older sister." Chen Yekai said, "Together with the teacher, I have been with me for many years, and I have been helping them with projects since the freshman year. This time I returned to China, I did not expect this to happen."

Zhou Sheng asked, "Where's Professor Lin?"

Chen Yekai replied: "I went to the dean, he is not seriously injured."

Zhou Sheng and Yu Hao looked at each other, Chen Yekai packed his things and said two words: "Thank you."

The three of them were speechless for a while, Yu Hao felt that Chen Yekai was very frustrated and in pain, and after a while, Yu Hao suggested, "Should we play games?"

Chen Yekai thought for a while and said, "Okay. Professor Lin will come later and introduce you. Today I want to use Monkey King."

Zhou Sheng: "Okay, let me use it for you."
