Immediately, the surrounding world became completely blank... He left the nightmare world.
Shao Ci was in a daze and was about to open his eyes, only to feel that his throat was so thirsty that it was on fire, and someone was sending warm liquid into his mouth.
Shao Ci subconsciously stretched out the tip of his tongue to lick it, and touched something soft and somewhat cool—wait a minute? !
He suddenly opened his eyes, and when he saw the pair of blue eyes clearly in front of him, he coughed up the liquid in his mouth in fright, "cough cough cough..."
Why did Wendell use this method to feed him water after waking up after just sleeping for a while!
"You're finally awake." Wendell looked very calm, and quickly patted Shao Ci on the back, and helped him dry the water from his lips, "The clothes are all wet, and you should change them." .”
"Just, that was just now..." Shao Ci has not recovered yet. Although he secretly kissed Wendell several times while sleeping in order to do the task, but it is completely different from the current nature!
Speaking of this, Wendell frowned, "You have been in a coma for three days."
Shao Ci was stunned, "Huh?" Obviously not so long in the dream, did he actually sleep for so long in reality? No wonder I feel sore all over, and I am too tired to even move my arms.
"Yeah, since that day... you have fallen into a coma, even the people of the temple can't help it." Wendell sighed, leaned forward and hugged Shao Ci tightly, and buried his head on Shao Ci's shoulder, " They said everything about you is normal and you should wake up soon, and it just went on for three days."
Wendell still has lingering fears when he thinks about it now. Although the scorpion monster was very strong, it was nothing to him. After killing the scorpion, he came out and saw Shao Ci's face pale and fainted on the ground.
At that moment, Wendell only felt that his mind was blank. If he hadn't bent down to hug Shao Ci and found that Shao Ci was still alive, he wouldn't have known what he would have done at that time.
Wendell knew that he regretted it...he regretted that he should not let Shao Ci come with him, even if Shao Ci strongly requested it, he should not condone it.
He had always hoped that Shao Ci would be happy, but when he encountered such a situation, he had other thoughts in his heart. If I had stayed in the capital like before, such a thing would not have happened...
Shao Ci patted Wendell's back, always feeling more embarrassed to ask about the past in the current atmosphere... Maybe he did this kind of thing just to feed the water in a hurry!
"Then, what's the situation now?" Shao Ci asked.
Wendell let go of Shao Ci, took out new clothes from the closet next to him, then walked over and gently touched Shao Ci's head, "It's okay, everything is over."
"Really..." Shao Ci always felt that things would not be so easy, no, things would never end so easily.
When Shao Ci was in a daze, Wendell had naturally helped him unbutton the shirt on his body.
Feeling a chill coming from his chest, Shao Ci blushed immediately, "I can do it myself, this kind of thing!"
"Do you still have strength now?" Wendell smiled gently, and said, "After all, I have only fed you potions for the past few days, so you should not be able to exert any strength at all now."
"Okay, okay... Are you taking care of me these days?" Shao Ci said, "Obviously you should take a good rest."
"You are still in a coma, how can I go to rest?" Wendell sighed softly, with a hint of sadness on his brows. He has the most pleasing kind of sunny and handsome appearance, showing this kind of expression right now makes people feel pity instantly.
Shao Ci was embarrassed to say anything immediately, and let the other party change his clothes obediently, leaning on the pillow and eating the food Wendell fed him.
Just after finishing the porridge, a knight rushed in with joy on his face, "Master Wendell, something good has happened!"
Wendell frowned slightly, his tone became much colder, "What's wrong?"
"Master Brave is awake too." The knight was too excited to notice that the atmosphere was wrong at all, "Everyone is awake."
"Oh?" Wendell smiled softly, "This is very good."
Shao Ci: "?!" Eh? !
Even though Shao Ci was still unable to move, he was carried by Wendell to Earl John's study.
He himself felt very embarrassed, but the others looked as if they were used to it, and Shao Ci couldn't help but wonder what Wendell had done during the three days when he was comatose...
Earl John was obviously very excited, his brows were completely stretched, and he looked a few years younger for a while, "Master Brave, thank you very much. Everyone is awake now, it seems really It’s about the monsters outside the city.”
"Uh, is that really the case..." Shao Ci's face was not pretty.
It's fine if others don't know, but he still doesn't know, all this is caused by that nightmare, and now the nightmare is still fine, how can it end.
"And you did not hesitate to injure yourself in order to kill those monsters. You are a well-deserved brave man. I even doubted your strength at the beginning. Now that I think about it, I really feel guilty." Earl John said with emotion.
Shao Ci immediately turned to look at Wendell next to him, and the latter smiled at him.
For Wendell, other people's admiration and admiration are already tiresome, and it is best to give this opportunity to Shao Ci now.
Anyway, that's what he planned from the beginning.
Shao Ci was moved again, how could there be such a good person as Wendell in the world!
It's just that he still can't let go, why did that nightmare wake up these ordinary people? What is he trying to do? !
No matter how he thinks about it, Shao Ci feels that there is a conspiracy, and this conspiracy is likely to be aimed at himself, and it really hurts to think about it.
On the surface, the matter seems to have come to an end, but because Shao Ci is not in good health, the group will continue to stay in Langton City for a while.
For this reason, the knights felt very satisfied. They received treatment like heroes in Langton City, and their lives were extremely nourishing. For the time being, they didn't want to go back to the hard days of traveling.
Even if Shao Ci doesn't want to face that nightmare anymore, he still knows that he can't just leave like this... because he still wants to purify that nightmare! !
What should I do if I want to see the nightmare
Of course it was a dream.
So Shao Ci quickly lay down on the bed to rest.
When he opened his eyes again, Shao Ci found that he was in a gorgeous restaurant, and he was sitting at a table with more than a dozen dishes on it, just looking at it made people move their index fingers.
The person sitting opposite was a beautiful young man with black hair and red eyes. He leaned lazily on his seat, looking at Shao Ci with a half-smile, "Welcome to my dreamland."
"Hello." Shao Ci became nervous unconsciously, and then remembered his main purpose of coming here - to kiss Ewings forcefully.
No, that's not his main purpose, he just came to ask what the hell the other party was up to!
Shao Ci calmed down and continued, "What are you trying to do? To make those people wake up..."
"It's a rare meeting, and you just want to ask me such a boring question?" Ewings raised his eyebrows and looked at Shao Ci, and said coldly: "If someone else said that, I would probably kill him directly. "
Shao Ci froze, he felt that the other party could indeed do such a thing.
Ewings smiled as if pleased, "Don't be afraid, because it's you, so such a boring topic is interesting. I won't do anything to you, at least not now."
Although it was a promise from a capricious villain, Shao Ci was still slightly relieved and said, "So my question..."
"Hey, it's really sad." Ewings sighed: "It's obviously rare for me to show kindness and let those people go. I thought I would be praised, but it turned out to be such a ruthless questioning."
Shao Ci looked at the sad eyes of the other party, and felt as if he had done something that was particularly sorry for the other party... So he was just not good at dealing with such people!
"... I don't think you are such a kind person." Shao Ci said.
"It's too much." Ewings said, "But you're right...I really want to do something else, for example, play another game with you or something?"
Thinking of the previous incident, Shao Ci's face became ugly. He absolutely didn't want to play such a terrible 'game' again!
"So I didn't want to tell you at the beginning, and now the good mood is completely ruined." Ewings smiled, "But don't worry, I am not interested in playing games today, I just want to invite you to join me It's just a shared meal—as a reward for the last time you found an answer."
"Really, really?" Shao Ci certainly noticed the table full of food when he came here, but he never believed that the other party would let him eat so kindly, so he pretended not to see it. I just want to eat it.
"Will I still lie to you?" Ewings stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, and the food on the table suddenly became steaming and fragrant, as if it had just been served from the kitchen, "You are welcome to enjoy it. Before the game starts... you have to relax first."
Shao Ci completely ignored what Ewings said afterwards, and his whole mind was focused on the food in front of him.
Even if it's just a dream, these foods are no different from the real ones, and there are many special foods from other worlds that Shao Ci has never seen before. In addition, he can't eat enough in his dreams, so he can't stop eating.
Ewings looked at Shao Ci eating food with a smile.
Even though it was just such an ordinary food, it seemed like a great enjoyment after the other party put it into his mouth. His fair cheeks were flushed, and his eyes were even more sparkling... Even though he was a brave man, he would not worry about being a monster. What kind of hands and feet did I do in the food, should I say it was bold or stupid
Ewings feels more inclined towards the latter.
"You got food on your face?" Ewings said suddenly.
Shao Ci paused for a moment, and looked up, as if he didn't realize what Ewings meant, and his eyes were still somewhat puzzled.
Because this expression was so cute, Ewings immediately stood up, leaned over to lick off the sauce on the other's cheek, and then smiled slightly, "It's gone now."
Shao Ci: "???!"
"Is it necessary to be so shocked?" Ewings said: "You have done even more drastic things?"
What I did before was just kissing, don't be so ambiguous!
But what Ewings said was right, he kissed the other party forcefully in the first place... He dug a hole and jumped into it himself!
Shao Ci felt a little sad for a moment, even the food that he thought was very delicious couldn't make him happy.
Ewings next to him looked excited, "Don't worry about me, just keep eating."
Shao Ci: "...!" Then continue eating!
He thinks that he was able to persist in so many worlds and meet so many men with snake spirits and diseases, and still maintain a normal person's thinking to complain, all because he can forcibly ignore certain things.
—
In the next few days, Shao Ci also dreamed of Ewings every time he dreamed, and the other party seemed to know Shao Ci very well, and would invite Shao Ci to eat every time.
And Shao Ci ate all night every time with the idea of not eating for nothing...
This also caused him to feel extremely tired every time he woke up. He was so tired that he had to sleep for a while to catch up.
Fortunately, sleeping during the day will never see Ewings again. Of course, Shao Ci doesn’t eat, drink and sleep every day. He also consulted some literature and asked about it in the temple, but he couldn’t find a way to deal with the nightmare...
"Are you okay recently?" Wendell found something wrong with Shao Ci, and held his hand worriedly, "They all look very tired, is there any injury on their body?"
"No." Shao Ci quickly said: "I just didn't sleep well at night, don't worry, it will be fine after this time."
Even Wendell Shaoci couldn't tell the truth! This kind of thing about meeting monsters every night and so on, if he can't make it right, he will be tied to the temple and burned to death.
Wendell reached out and touched Shao Ci's head, "If there is anything, just tell me."
"It's nothing!" Shao Ci shook his head lightly, "Speaking of which, isn't there a celebration banquet tonight? You should hurry up and prepare."
Looking into Shao Ci's eyes, Wendell still nodded, "Yes."
After turning around and leaving, Wendell's beautiful blue eyes darkened for a moment and became dim.
Having been with Shao Ci for so long, he can easily see what Shao Ci is hiding. Obviously in the past Shao Ci was the first to tell him no matter what, but now he doesn't tell him what happened at all.
Is it because Shao Ci no longer believes in himself
Wendell's hand clenched a little.
It seems that since leaving the capital, everything has become more and more different, and Shao Ci has become farther and farther away from him.
...
…
Soon came the evening celebration banquet.
Naturally, this was held to celebrate the removal of those monsters outside the city, and almost all the upper-level figures in Langton City came here.
And the central figure of this banquet is naturally Shao Ci, who is a brave man, and Wendell seems to have something to deal with, so he didn't attend the banquet at all.
Shao Ci had already changed into a formal dress, but he was a little absent-minded, thinking about something in the corner.
This kind of picture made other people feel that this brave man is even more mysterious, and many people hesitated whether to come forward to chat.
Shao Ci was very worried. According to the character of Ewings, it is estimated that tonight is the time to do something. Bringing despair to everyone when everyone is happy is what this villain likes most!
And Wendell didn't know what to do, which made Shao Ci even more uncertain, and he didn't even have the desire to eat food.
Earl John said something very excited, probably something like the fact that Langton City has finally restored peace, and finally invited Shao Ci to come forward.
Shao Ci stood up, and as soon as he walked to Earl John, a servant rushed in with a panicked face, "Lord Earl, something is wrong!"
"What's the matter?" Earl John was very displeased that he was interrupted at such a critical moment, which completely destroyed the previous atmosphere.
The attendant gasped for breath, and then said in a panic: "Those, those civilians, they are crazy!"
"It's just such a trivial matter?" Earl John didn't care at all, and said with a sneer, "It's just a few civilians, and they can be suppressed by guards. Is it necessary to bring it here?"
"More than that!" The attendant quickly said: "Those crazy civilians, a large amount of black mist poured out of them, and everyone who came into contact with the black mist fell into a coma immediately!"
"What?! How could this be? Could it be another monster?" Earl John was startled.
Others panicked when they heard the news. If it wasn't for the relatively safe place and the presence of the brave Shao Ci, the scene would have been chaotic.
Shao Ci said: "Looking at this, it is indeed a monster, everyone calm down..." Wait, there seems to be something wrong with the breath.
Shao Ci turned his head away, and where he saw, the attendant holding the snack suddenly went berserk, and at the same time a large amount of black mist escaped from his body.
The speed at which the mist spread was so fast that most people were covered by the black mist without even realizing it, and Shao Ci, who was standing not far from the attendant, was of course not spared.
Shao Ci: "..." Hey!
Of course he didn't last long. The moment he was covered by the black mist, he felt like his eyelids weighed a thousand catties, and he fell into a deep sleep unwillingly.
—
When he woke up, Shao Ci found himself sitting on a bench. And the culprit who caused all that was still smiling and sitting beside him.
The distance between the two was astonishingly close, and Shao Ci subconsciously moved a little to the side, feeling that Ewing's lips seemed to have just touched his cheek.
"Welcome." The young man with a beautiful face said enthusiastically, "The new game has finally started."
"What are you going to do this time?" Shao Ci said, "I'm afraid the entire Langton City has fallen now... Don't you fear the people of the Holy Capital if you do such a sensational thing?"
It is completely different from the temple of salted fish here, the holy capital is the most sacred place in the whole continent, and the people inside definitely have a way to deal with the nightmare. This is probably why Ewings only attacked civilians before.
"Of course I will be scared. My scared hands are shaking." Ewings held Shao Ci's hand, his red eyes were full of smiles, "So come and comfort me."
Looking at it like this, you can tell that he is not afraid of the people in the holy capital!
Shao Ci resisted the urge to punch him in the face, "So what do you want me to do this time? Stop talking nonsense!"
"Well, it's time to introduce the rules of the game." Ewings propped his chin and said, "Well, you have a very close friend, right? I was a little jealous at first."
"What did you do to Wendell?" Shao Ci stood up abruptly. He didn't expect that Wendell, who had always been so strong in front of him, would be in danger.
"Don't worry, he's not in danger now." Ewings said lightly, "Of course, if you don't hurry up, I don't know what will happen to him, maybe he will die casually."
"Where is he?" Shao Ci asked anxiously, feeling that he couldn't delay any longer.
Wendell does have some status in Shao Ci's heart, he is considered the most important person in this world... Anyway, he has been in love for so many years!
Even if he knew that Wendell would not die with the aura of the protagonist, and might be able to upgrade, Shao Ci still couldn't help but worry.
"Well, I put him in the temple." Ewings said briskly: "If you can save him, I will lose this game. In this way, I will let everyone go, completely out of here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shao Ci hurriedly turned and ran towards the temple.
Looking at Shao Ci's back, Ewings' expression turned cold, and he said in a low voice, "But if I win, you have to stay obediently and stay with me forever."
