"Let go of me!" Yu Hao shouted, the iron armored man grabbed him firmly, dragged him back to the city wall, and threw him to the ground.
Yu Hao fell to the ground, sat up in embarrassment, leaned back against the brick wall of the city wall, and stared at the man in front of him.
The iron armored man walked towards him, making a slight sound of metal friction. This man was tall and wore a silver helmet with a covered head, like a medieval knight, and a long sword on his waist.
The knight came five paces before him and stopped.
"You...you..." Yu Hao said in disbelief, "Who are you? Where is this?"
The knight turned his head and looked at the other end of the Great Wall, Yu Hao leaned back against the brick wall, slowly got up, and looked in the direction he turned his head.
I saw the Great Wall was dark, the autumn wind was blowing, the leaves were falling, and the wilderness was thousands of miles away.
Outside the Great Wall, there is darkness where you can't see your fingers.
"Yo, it's a little serious," said the iron armored knight. "No wonder, it's just a little bit, it seems that I'm here quite in time?"
Yu Hao frowned deeply, using the dim sky light to look at the knight in iron armor.
"I'm the guardian of your dreams." The knight in iron armor stretched out his right hand covered with metal gloves and said, "Call me 'General', it's the first time we meet, please take care of me."
Yu Hao: "..."
Yu Hao stretched out his hand and was about to shake his hand, but the next moment, the knight suddenly retracted his hand and shouted, "Be careful!"
Before Yu Hao regained his senses, he turned his head and glanced at it. A deafening roar sounded, and a huge, pitch-black monster rushed up from under the city wall with a roar! That monster had four feet on the ground, nearly three meters tall, and covered in scales. When it rushed up, the "General" instantly pulled Yu Hao behind him with his left hand, and quickly pulled out his sword on his waist with his right hand, and charged towards him like lightning. Sweep ahead!
The monster roared wildly, spewing black blood, and then the general turned around quickly, his left hand clenched a fist, his fist was covered with a heavy iron glove, and a fist slammed on the monster's head, suddenly muffled, and beat it to deform its head. , fell straight to the outside of the Great Wall!
Yu Hao couldn't help gasping for breath, but at this moment, darkness spread from the outside of the Great Wall like mercury flowing toward the city wall and climbed up. The wolves howled one after another, and the rotten black wolves climbed up along the city wall one after another. The general turned his back to Yu Hao and faced the rotten wolves, waving the long sword in his hand, shouting, "Too many!"
Yu Hao panicked: "What is this? What should I do?"
The general said, "I'll cover you! Get out of here first!"
Yu Hao turned his head and looked into the city wall. If he jumped from a height of ten meters, he would probably break his leg. The general said loudly: "It's no use escaping into the Great Wall! Sooner or later they will come after them! Run along the wall!"
The general swept away the rotten wolf with a sword and shouted, "You go first!"
Yu Hao took a few steps back and the general chased after him. Yu Hao felt a little more at ease. The wolves grew more and more and they kept climbing up the city wall. He ran along the Great Wall. After a while, he chased after him, dragged him, and ran away toward the far side of the city wall.
There are many corner rooms in the middle of the Great Wall, which can't be seen at a glance. The general shouted: "Run towards the room!"
The rotten wolf rushed forward one after another. Yu Hao slammed into the door first and entered a corner room. The general turned around and broke, and knocked the rotten wolf, who had rushed in front of him, sideways. , with a bang, the world is pitch black.
The general could not resist the vibrating door and shouted: "Look for the latch!"
Yu Hao groped around, tripped on the ground, found the door latch, and held the door against the door. There was a rumbling sound. The door was firm and motionless, and it was quiet outside.
Yu Hao panted in the darkness and said, "What the hell is this place...?"
"Look for fire," the general replied in the dark.
Yu Hao said, "Where?"
"I don't know, but there will be," the general said again.
"What do you mean?" Yu Hao was almost dizzy, he was clearly... burning charcoal, but he came here for some unknown reason. He was chased by a group of inexplicable wolves, and a knight in iron armor appeared.
"As long as you believe in fire, it will appear," the general explained. "The soldiers guarding the Great Wall will leave fire behind, don't they? Otherwise, how would they light the beacon."
Yu Hao thought about it too, turned around and touched the wall and found a shelf. After touching the shelf for a long time, he felt a small thing.
"It's a lighter." Yu Hao said.
"There should be lights," the general said again.
Yu Hao pressed down on the windproof lighter, and with a humming sound, flames spewed out, illuminating a small area. Sure enough, there was a lamp under the shelf. up.
All around is empty.
Yu Hao looked at the armor through the light, and was suddenly curious about the man inside.
"What the hell is this place?!" Yu Hao asked for the third time, "Tell me!"
The general remained motionless, facing the light, as if in a trance.
"Life is too short." The general said indifferently, "Since you have given up the idea of living, why are you still escaping in front of the wolves?"
Yu Hao sighed and replied, "If there is hope of living, why would you have to die?" He was sitting on the ground with his back against the wall of the corner room, feeling a little annoyed.
"What makes you want to live?" The general sat down beside Yu Hao and put one hand on his shoulder. The armor was very cold, but Yu Hao had the urge to cry.
"I don't know." Yu Hao murmured.
"This is your dream." The general said, "The dark world outside the Great Wall is your subconscious. Once you jump down, your life will be over, and your last thought of survival will be extinguished. The yearning for living is the only one. hope will fall into the subconscious.”
Yu Hao: "..."
"Want to live?" said the general. "You decide."
"I remember... I didn't have this dream, no, I did!" Yu Hao murmured, but he remembered it in an instant. For a long time after his grandmother died, he dreamed several times that he was standing on a high wall, hesitating to jump down.
Inside the wall was a wasteland, and outside the wall was an abyss. He kept wandering around the city wall for many years.
"Everything here is changed by your hints to yourself." The general said casually, "The latch on the door means that you think the room is completely safe, so listen? It's quiet outside."
After a long silence, the general's voice sounded again.
"Don't blame me for being nosy, you don't really want to die."
"why?"
"Because you are still here," said the general, and then patted Yu Hao on the shoulder, like a reliable big brother, stood up, "didn't jump off the city wall."
"You're right." Yu Hao sighed, but at this moment his eyes brightened, "I'm still hesitating, but I don't know why."
"This sentence is enough. Since you haven't made up your mind yet, let's try it." The general looked at the ceiling of the corner room by the light.
"Try what?" Yu Hao frowned.
The general murmured: "Let the sun rise, or even if you just return to reality like this, next time, you'll still... Anyway... um... look at the top."
Yu Hao held the lamp and looked up. There was a closed skylight on the ceiling of the corner room. The general said, "Come on, I'll take you up first. There should be a ladder above, you put the ladder down."
Yu Hao said strangely, "Isn't it my dream? How come you know better than me?"
"This is common sense..." The general said, stomping slightly, placing his palms on his hands, motioning Yu Hao to come over, and Yu Hao stepped on his palms.
"...and a psychological...hint for you by the way..." The general lifted him above his head, Yu Hao opened the skylight, put the lamp outside, and climbed up.
The place where Yu Hao was standing was at the height of the corner of the Great Wall. On the platform that extended, a huge siege crossbow stood on top of it, and there was really a ladder on the side. He looked out of the platform, and at that moment, he saw more and more rotten wolves, turning over the Great Wall, and drowning toward this huge wall like a crucian carp crossing the river.
The Kuroshio roared like fast-growing vegetation, spreading continuously on the Great Wall.
"More and more!" Yu Hao shouted down.
The general replied from below: "Let me go up first! Is there a ladder!"
Yu Hao put down the ladder, the general quickly climbed onto the platform, glanced at it, and said, "Crap, it's faster than I thought."
"What should I do?" Yu Hao asked.
The general looked into the distance. Nearly half a kilometer away, there was a towering pedestal.
"The target is the beacon, light it up," said the general. "Someone will come to your rescue."
"Who?" Yu Hao asked.
"You have to ask yourself," said the general. "Rush over the Great Wall."
The road to the city wall leading to the beacon was covered by rot wolves, but they didn't seem to notice Yu Hao and the man in the iron armor. There are delicious foods that appeal to them.
"Get ready," said the general, "I'll jump first, you follow me, don't be afraid."
"Wait." Yu Hao sorted out his thoughts and suddenly asked, "This is my dream, isn't it?"
The general said, "Huh?" He turned his head to look at Yu Hao from his helmet. Yu Hao asked again, "If I want a lighter, I have a lighter, and if I want a ladder, I have a ladder. Then... can I make you more powerful?"
Without thinking, the general replied, "Impossible."
"Why?" Yu Hao frowned.
The general said, "There is not much time left, are you sure you want to listen?"
Yu Hao hesitated for a moment, then the general said, "You just need to remember that our abilities are limited now. You who are standing here are not the real you, but only a part of your self-awareness."
Yu Hao: "What... what? What about you? Why are you a guardian?"
The general drew his sword and murmured, "I'm not part of this dream, you can treat me like an outsider... Get ready, jump!"
"Wait!" Before Yu Hao could hear it clearly, the general had already swung his sword and jumped down towards the corridor of the city wall!
Yu Hao had no choice but to turn his heart away, quickly chased after the general, and jumped down the nearly three-meter-high corridor of the city wall. The wolves who climbed the city wall immediately spotted them and charged towards the general.
"Give me a weapon!" Yu Hao shouted.
The general threw the sword to him, and Yu Hao took it. The general opened the way with his bare hands, and Yu Hao shouted, "What about you?!"
The general grabbed a rotten wolf and punched it on the wolf's head. Yu Hao held a lantern in one hand and a sword in the other, and swept away. The sword was so sharp that it cut it in half as soon as it hit the rotten wolf.
The roar and the angry shout resounded through his ears. During the melee, Yu Hao only subconsciously ran after the general. The two cleared a path and rushed towards the Great Wall. Yu Hao almost fell a few times, but the general's strong hand tightly clasped his wrist and shouted, "Take the lamp!"
Immediately afterwards, Yu Hao only felt his body lighten, and was hugged by the waist. The general ran a few steps, then jumped, and the wolves scattered. Fifty, thirty steps... just like an arrow from a string, rushing towards the beacon. !
Yu Hao saw Feng Sui's stairs and shouted, "It's here!"
"Go up!" The general took the sword and turned to block in front of the steps. Hundreds of rotten wolves were alerted and charged towards them, intending to jump over the steps and drag Yu Hao down the Great Wall. The general kept killing the rotten wolf with his sword. Wherever the sword's edge went, the rotten wolf broke open like a piece of paper and turned into black energy.
Yu Hao stumbled and went up to the beacon tower with the lamp in hand. The general stepped back step by step and climbed to the high platform. There were more and more wolves, forming an encirclement from all directions.
"quick!"
Yu Hao couldn't stop gasping, would there really be reinforcements
Inside and outside the Great Wall, the sky and the earth are dark and the wind is blowing, this is a hopeless dream.
He threw the lantern towards the beacon stack, and at the same time, the general could no longer resist the wolves and was overturned to the ground. Just as the beacon was lit, the flames rose into the air, leaping three feet!
"General!" Yu Hao rushed towards the man in the iron armor that was being held down by the wolves, and right behind him, a miracle seemed to happen. A flaming pillar of fire suddenly rushed up in the gust of wind and shot straight into the sky! The wolves seemed to be very afraid of the fire, and the moment the beacon lit up, it scattered.
The next moment, the beacon towers seemed to be sensed by the winding Great Wall, one by one, and the pillars of fire radiated light, like a beacon that shone from the earth to the sky in the dark night, and it was like a divine punishment from the sky in the end times!
"The defense mechanism is activated." The general struggled to get up, adjusted his shoulder armor, and sheathed his long sword.
Yu Hao stared at this scene in a daze. The beacon fire started from where they were standing, one by one, ignited one after another in the east and west directions. The Great Wall of Ten Thousand Li was majestic and majestic under this light, illuminating the whole world and driving away the people outside the city wall. The vast darkness!
"No reinforcements." Yu Hao gasped, "What's next? What should I do?"
The general raised his hand to his ear and made a "listening" gesture to signal him to listen carefully. Yu Hao suddenly turned his head and looked at the boundless wasteland within the Great Wall.
In that wasteland, thousands of troops are rolling in!
Yu Hao: "..."
"Success! The line of defense has been established! It's safe!" The general said solemnly.
Nearly 100,000 cavalrymen rushed towards the Great Wall like a tide, Yu Hao quickly ran to the other end and said, "Where did you come from? I..."
The general came behind Yu Hao and looked out into the wilderness. There were boundless swarms of fierce soldiers, like red clouds, sweeping across the wilderness, colliding with the wolves that had crossed the Great Wall, and the wolves suddenly collapsed! Yu Hao used the strong light of the beacon to see the appearance of the reinforcements. All of them were dressed in leather armor, and on their chests wore the Chinese character "Soldier" written in Lishu script. After that, countless battle flags flew like clouds of flames, writing " "Scholar", another gun truck came, lined up, adjusted the angle, and launched a bombardment towards the outside of the Great Wall!
The general said: "These are your guardians in memory, go back and find them?"
The thunder roared, and the cannonball, carrying the billowing fire, flew across the city in an arc, smashing the rotten wolves that were advancing one after another outside the Great Wall. Yu Hao turned his head again and looked to the other side.
"Very good-"
The strong light of the beacon tower shot straight into the sky, Yu Hao suddenly had difficulty breathing, and his whole body was weak, and he knelt down.
"Yu Hao!" The general came over immediately, knelt down on one knee, and caught him.
"I..." Yu Hao calmed down, only to feel that the world was spinning and the whole world was shaking.
"You're about to wake up." The general said in a low voice in his ear.
Yu Hao looked up in a daze, looking at the helmet, the general said again, "Go back and live a good life, when you want to give up everything..."
"...don't forget there's me..."
"Yu Hao!" An anxious voice said in his ear.
Yu Hao felt that he was shaking violently, as if someone was running behind his back, panting, the smell of sweat, and the cold wind pouring down his neck.
His consciousness was coming back little by little, and strange voices kept talking.
"Turn through his pocket and see if the campus card is on him."
"I'm going to help him register..."
Pain in the back of the hand.
"Too thin, so thin." A female voice said, "Give oxygen to drip, observe for 24 hours, and see if there is any edema, eh? Wake up."
Yu Hao opened his eyes tiredly and weakly. The white walls and blue cloth screens of the hospital came into view. The nurse was adjusting his IV bottle, then put on his oxygen mask, and turned around to call someone. came in.
"Yu Hao, you... What the hell is wrong with you?"
Yu Hao's mind was still a little unclear. He opened his mouth, but couldn't speak, and looked at him quietly.
The counselor, named Xue Long, sighed.
"Don't you want to fight for your grandmother who passed away?" Xue Long said, "What hurdles in life cannot be overcome?"
Yu Hao opened his mouth again, and this time he made a sound.
"Mr. Xue."
"Hey." Xue Long said helplessly.
Xue Long was thinking about whether there was still room to persuade him to quit, but now it seems that he may have to deal with himself even more trouble. This student is a hot potato, and he looks pitiful. But persuading him and enlightening him are not contradictory to each other.
When students are in school, whether it is suicide or murder, the college and the counselor are inseparable. But once you drop out, the school has little responsibility.
"I chose a place outside the school." Yu Hao said calmly, "This way I won't cause you trouble."
"It's not a question of whether to cause trouble or not." Xue Long said, "Today there is an internal meeting in the academy, and I'm still fighting for you. Once you turn around, you're like this.
"I'm sorry." Yu Hao replied.
Xue Long looked at his watch and thought about it, there was a Manchester United game tonight, he had to go home quickly, and said to Yu Hao, "You have a good rest first, your new head teacher will come to talk to you tomorrow, rest well. Find me again."
Yu Hao said "um" and suddenly felt that he had experienced that dream, and it seemed that something had changed.
"Thank you."
When Xue Long was about to leave, Yu Hao said again.
Xue Long didn't say more, for fear of irritating him. Student work is a high-risk industry. If something happens, it must be the counselor who takes the blame. He feels that homosexuals are psychologically fragile. Last year, there was a case in a university where two homosexuals fell in love, and the trouble was earth-shattering. One of them was diagnosed with AIDS and committed suicide. The parents are endless, the school has lost 700,000 yuan, and the counselor has been fired.
Xue Long sometimes felt that he should offer a statue of "Yang Yongxin to God" at home. Some students could only be cured by electric shocks. Like Yu Hao, he was not sympathetic to being electrocuted ten or eight times.
