Chapter 208 207. Weird Dream

I had a really good time tonight.

Zhou Qian's friends are rough, but Ke Xin is warm and direct.

Although everyone was fighting for the braised pork, after they slowly ate the carp with bones, they became much more polite when eating afterwards.

In the end, I couldn’t eat any more, so I found a few plastic bags to pack up the steamed sweet potatoes and salted peanuts to take home.

Zhou Qian was helpless when he saw this: "Okay, okay, okay! Just pack it up! Do you want leftovers and tomatoes?"

Potatoes and other foods take up too much space in my stomach, so I couldn’t even eat many bites of the eggplant stewed with cowpea and the green pepper stuffed with meat!
As soon as this was said, everyone was overjoyed:
"Yes! How about we go on a training run in the middle of the night and use this as a midnight snack?"

It wouldn't go bad if it was kept until tomorrow morning, but it was uncertain whether they would get to eat it. Everyone felt their bulging stomachs and nodded in unison.

It’s better to put it in your stomach!
Tomatoes were originally meant to be eaten before or after meals, but people ate so many of them that they almost wanted to lean on the wall to get out. Where was the space left for these things?
Then someone else came forward happily and put the tomatoes neatly into the bag.

But they did what they said. They ate and drank enough to help digest the food, then quickly washed the pots and pans, wiped the door panels clean and put them back.

The peanut shells and food leftovers in the yard were also cleaned up.

Huaiyu was even happier when he saw this, and reluctantly said goodbye before leaving:

"When you are not on a mission, you must come and play with Brother Zhou Qian. I will also cook for you."

"Good good!"

Everyone answered without any politeness.

Before coming here, everyone thought the legendary Huai Yu was a girl.

After she came, everyone respected her as a god, and even her answers were so sincere:
"Next time, when we find something to offer as a sacrifice, we'll bring some food along. Sister Xiaoyu, do you want anything else?"

……

Huaiyu thought of the happiness of tonight and couldn't help but smile as she lay in bed.

This happiness was so real and lasting that she felt that even if she dreamed of that unlucky Wu Yue again tonight, it would not be a big deal.

The moon is hazy outside the window, roses are swaying on their branches, and a faint fragrance is spreading.

However, in her dream, everything around her was desolate.

I don't know what kind of weeds died on the dry and yellow land, and it felt like stepping on soft soil when I stepped on it.

The surroundings seemed to be buried under layers of ice and snow. It was cold and the slight warmth felt under my feet seemed to be gradually disappearing.

And in the center of this withered yellow land, there is a brown, strong tree with a heavy air of death, with its hideous branches stretched out towards the sky like a monster.

Scattered pieces of clothing and gray bones that had long since decayed on the ground were vaguely visible.

In front of this tree, there seemed to be a familiar figure standing there.

This is where?

Huaiyu felt confused and his heart was pounding as if it was being pulled by something.

And when she looked around, she could clearly see lush greenery in the distance.

However, the vast area under his feet was all the same boundless withered yellow, like a pasture howled by wind and snow in winter, without a single sprout to be seen.

This is where?

She became anxious, as if she realized that this was a very important place. However, the scene in front of her became more and more unfamiliar. It seemed as if someone was whispering in all directions:
"cold……"

"It's very cold..."

Subconsciously, she ran towards the vague figure in front of her.

However, at this moment, the dry yellow earth seemed to have opened a big mouth, and her feet were empty. She twitched violently in the extreme feeling of falling, and then woke up from her sleep. In the dream, the feeling of loneliness, fear, and coldness seemed to still linger in her body, making her involuntarily pull the quilt higher and hug it tightly.

And it was pitch black all around.

Huaiyu lay on the bed in a daze, vaguely smelling the familiar scent of flowers.

What scene appeared in her dream? And it seemed familiar...

But soon, a deep sleepiness overwhelmed him and Huaiyu could not help but close his eyes again.

And in the period that seemed like a dream, the scene in front of my eyes suddenly changed and turned into the same pitch-black place.

No, it cannot be said to be a complete smear.

Because there seemed to be a house in front of her, and faint moonlight was pouring in from the gaps in the building, just like the moonlight pouring into her house.

After staying in the dream for a while, she seemed to get used to the dark environment. She vaguely saw the outline of a table in the room.

Looks slightly familiar.

Huaiyu silently noted this incident, and then suddenly remembered -

Isn't this Zhou Qian's house? !

How can you have a good dream when the two are so close? You can't dream of running 10 kilometers when you see someone in your dream, right?
Alas!
Huai Yu sneezed in the middle of the night: It’s so horrible.

……

The next day, she told Zhou Qian about her dream:
"Do you think I have other special abilities, such as foresight?"

Zhou Qian thought about it and finally came to the conclusion: "I feel like it might just be an ordinary dream."

After all, the two of them thought about it for a long time but still couldn't find any clues from the dream. And -

"What's so predictable about my house?"

"And if you want to see it, you can go and see it during the day. You don't have to go through the process of dreaming... You know, it's just like the living rooms of thousands of households in the world."

"You may just be too tired."

Huaiyu thought about it and still felt a little sad: "But... when I first started in the dream, I was really lonely and miserable."

Zhou Qian sighed, put down his hoe and sat on the ground with her:

"Xiao Yu, you may really dream about what you think about during the day."

"You don't like being alone. When you dream, all kinds of weird scenes can appear. As for dreaming about my living room... that's even simpler. Maybe you looked at it a few more times during the day and it left an impression in your subconscious mind."

Huaiyu held her chin and looked at him: "Really?"

"Really." Zhou Qian vowed: "Otherwise, what can you predict in my living room?"

Huaiyu thought about it and said: It does seem to make sense.

She sighed, "Oh, I really wish I had a special ability to predict the future."

In this way, maybe there is a chance to know Lin Xuefeng's current whereabouts. Or maybe I can meet Uncle Zaozi's children?

She picked up a branch at random and gestured on the ground, trying to reconstruct the strange scene in her dream.

However, I really don't have the ability to draw. No matter how wonderful the idea is, when I start to draw, there is only a circle on the ground, and the messy tree in the middle of the circle has also become a mess on the ground...

No one can tell what this abstract thing is.

But Huai Yu stared at it for a long time, and then lightly tapped the branch at the center of the circle.

Update 2, good night. Writing furiously next door.
