"Anan?"
Jiang Yuebai stood in a dark space, looking blankly at Lu Nanzhi who was walking towards her and the nightmare demon above her head.
"noob!"
Lu Nanzhi's face was full of anxiety as he quickly ran to Jiang Yuebai.
Jiang Yuebai was a little confused, "Why do you call me Xiaobai? Don't you usually call me Yue'er? And why do you feel different? Where is this?"
"Xiaobai, wake up!"
Lu Nanzhi grabbed Jiang Yuebai's shoulders and shouted in a deep voice.
The nightmare demon above her head raised its long nose and cried out. The sound waves created ripples in the darkness, which hit Jiang Yuebai's brows one after another, releasing her blinded soul from the darkness.
All the memories poured out, Jiang Yuebai opened his eyes wide in horror, and the chill rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
She remembered that she was sucked into the Taixuan Monument!
That dream was fake. If she continued to immerse herself in it, she would probably die in the dream when she really died.
Jiang Yuebai grabbed Lu Nanzhi's arm and said, "Anan, I... I almost died!"
Lu Nanzhi gently stroked Jiang Yuebai's back to calm her down.
Jiang Yuebai took two deep breaths before asking, "How did you get here and find me?"
"Don't worry, let me tell you slowly. This is your dream within a dream, and Youmeng led me to you."
The nightmare demon above Lu Nanzhi's head raised its nose and cried in response.
"I am still in the Yaoguang Realm of the Big Dipper Alliance. Dreams are a very special existence, and the Dream Demon's ability to enter dreams is not restricted by realms. Although it is not very useful, it is also special. It is like the legendary dream transmission in the mortal world. As long as you and I fall asleep at the same time and think about each other, Youmeng can bring me into your dream."
Jiang Yuebai nodded. So that's how it was. When she was lying on the bed in a daze just now, she was indeed thinking about Lu Nanzhi. Even though it was just the Lu Nanzhi in a false dream, it was difficult for her to let go of the Lu Nanzhi she had been with. Moreover, she subconsciously had the thought of asking Lu Nanzhi for help at that time.
"How long can we stay here?" Jiang Yuebai asked.
Lu Nanzhi comforted him, "Don't worry, the speed of time in dreams is controlled by Youmeng. Although the dream within the dream consumes a lot of its energy, it can still last for half an hour. I usually practice sword moves in my dreams, and I often miss you in my dreams, so Youmeng has been paying attention to whether you and Xie Jingshan have entered my dreams, so that it can take me to see you. This ability is also acquired after it has recently advanced."
"Under normal circumstances, you don't sleep at all, so there is no chance for me to meet you in your dream. I have met Xie Jingshan several times before. This time, Youmeng discovered that you were dreaming first. I thought it was strange and came to check it out. As a result, I found that you were trapped in the first level of dreams."
"Youmeng told me that the thing that trapped you is very powerful and it can't help you break it. Xiaobai, what exactly happened to you? How can I help you?"
Jiang Yuebai regained his composure and rationality after waking up, and shook his head, "You are in the Yaoguang Realm, and I am in the Tianqiang Realm. Even if you leave now, you will not be able to help me in time. I must be trapped in the illusion array left by the Mahayana cultivator. Let me think about it..."
Jiang Yuebai quickly reviewed the whole incident, called up all the knowledge about the illusion array in his memory, and thought about a solution.
"The illusion array is special. In addition to being used to trap the enemy, it is also used by some high-level cultivators as a method of cultivating the mind. From what I have encountered so far, this illusion array wants me to be immersed in it and unable to extricate myself. If it has a way out..."
"Have you found a way out?" Lu Nanzhi asked nervously.
Jiang Yuebai's eyes darkened, "I think I have missed the only way out."
In this dream, she was trapped in the small Jiangjia Village from beginning to end, surrounded by people she cared about. As long as she stayed in Jiangjia Village, she could get inner and emotional satisfaction.
Even her only concern, getting married, had to be held in Jiangjia Village because of her illness.
Perhaps, as long as she walks out of Jiangjia Village, she will be able to break free from the illusion.
The time when Zhuo Qingfeng wanted to take her away was her escape route. It was after she rejected Zhuo Qingfeng that she suddenly fell ill and her spirit quickly weakened.
"What are you going to do now?" Lu Nanzhi asked nervously.
Jiang Yuebai comforted himself, "Even if I leave from the previous life gate, I'm afraid it won't be that easy to completely escape from the illusion. The possibility of entering the next illusion is higher."
This dream was to make her forget everything, lose her mind, only follow her emotional needs, and indulge in desires.
As long as she can regain her sanity and find herself, the dream will definitely lose its effect.
"Anan, if I leave here, will I still remember what happened here?"
Lu Nanzhi pulled the nightmare demon off his head, and the nightmare demon screamed.
"It says that you will remember what happened in your dream the moment you wake up, but the memory will disappear quickly, and the more you think about it, the more you forget it. Especially when you are trapped in a dream created by an illusion, you will forget it faster and more completely. How much you can remember depends on your willpower."
Jiang Yuebai stretched out his hand to scratch the Dream Demon's back, and the Dream Demon stretched out his head comfortably.
Before he could finish his words, the nightmare demon suddenly shuddered, and immediately turned into a wisp of black smoke and shrank back into Lu Nanzhi's body, refusing to show its head again.
Lu Nanzhi raised the corner of his lips slightly, raised his hand and poked Jiang Yuebai between the eyebrows, "You're just talking nonsense."
Jiang Yuebai took a breath, "Okay, I won't talk nonsense anymore. I have thought of several ways to break the formation and I am ready. You can ask it to send me out. When I am out of danger, I will come back to your dream. Ask it to keep an eye on it."
"Okay, be careful, I'll wait for your news."
After Lu Nanzhi finished speaking, he called out the nightmare demon. The dream demon refused to even show its head. It stretched out a little hoof and waved it at Jiang Yuebai. Jiang Yuebai's feet were empty and he suddenly felt like he was falling.
In Jiangjia Village, Jiang Yuebai kicked her legs and suddenly woke up. The sharp tinnitus in her ears quickly shattered her memory.
“Can’t forget… Can’t forget…”
Jiang Yuebai muttered something to himself, forced himself to get out of bed with his weak body, and fell to the table, with his sewing basket falling to the ground.
The memories in the dream are becoming increasingly faint, like sand held tightly in the hand, which becomes more and more scattered the more you grasp it.
She grabbed the scissors from the sewing basket and slashed them hard across her palm.
pain!
The blood was hot, and everything was so real.
"Yue'er!"
Jiang Yuebai's mother rushed in when she heard the noise, and saw her lying on the ground with a pair of scissors in her hand, cutting the palm of her left hand bloodily. She immediately rushed over to grab the scissors, and wrapped her injured hand with a half-embroidered handkerchief in the sewing basket.
All the memories in his mind eventually disappeared. Facing his mother crying like rain, Jiang Yuebai's mind went blank.
"I... I don't know..."
Her hands were bandaged and she was helped back to bed. She was in a daze, and only the pain in her palms kept her awake occasionally.
She didn't know how long she slept, when she heard the sound of music outside. She didn't know when she was changed into a wedding dress and a wedding veil on her head. She sat against the head of the bed, looking down at the scabbed wound on her palm.
The sound of a door opening was heard, and a man slowly walked to the bedside and sat down, raising his hand to lift Jiang Yuebai's veil.
"The moon..."
Phew!
Before the veil was lifted, Jiang Yuebai suddenly pulled out the dagger hidden in her sleeve and stabbed it into the chest of the person opposite her. She didn't even see who he was, nor did she want to see clearly.
Because she was also afraid, afraid that this person was someone she herself had not even realized was someone she could not let go of, and that if she looked at him, she would only get deeper and deeper into the trap.
Even because of what she had seen, it affected her future path of cultivation and decisions.
She knew everyone in the entire Jiangjia Village, including Aunt Shen, that is, Shen Jinghao Master Shen.
The only thing was that the son of Aunt Shen had never appeared in her entire life. Jiang Yuebai smelled a conspiracy.
"Jiang Yue'er died a long time ago. I am Jiang Yuebai!"
Jiang Yuebai spread out her left hand, and the scar on the palm of her hand was a word "Bai". Jiang Yuebai's Bai, Xiaobai's Bai, allowed her to find her true "Bai".
Wow!
The veil was suddenly pulled down, and Jiang Yuebai was caught off guard, but she still saw the face of the person in wedding dress sitting opposite her.
It was indeed someone she had never seen before, either outside or inside her dream.
The man had a dagger stuck in his chest and a triumphant smile on his lips.
"Remember me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Jiang Yuebai suddenly fell down. Everything around her became farther and farther away from her, drifting away like paper ashes. Only the man's face was deeply imprinted in her mind and could not be erased.
I was still tricked!
Jiang Yuebai just wanted to speak sweet words at this moment.
Okay, I’ll remember it. Next time I see this face, I’ll kill it!
