"Jon, you came back quite early this time, and Xiao Mu hasn't come back from school yet." It was an old man who was speaking. He sat in a pavilion with glass on all sides and greeted the people who came.
"The research has achieved phased results. No, I'm finally on vacation. I hurried back to reunite with my family immediately." A young and magnetic voice said from his mouth.
Angel is now attached to the owner of this voice, and his heart is full of excitement. Although this voice is very young, he is too familiar with that voice and the tone of voice when speaking Chinese.
It's Jon!
As soon as he entered Jon's dream, he found himself moving down a long street. There are red maple trees planted on both sides. Along the way, the maple leaves fall from time to time, forming a beautiful autumn scene.
However, the red maple tree went out, but it was pitch-black, like chaos.
Only this long street, in the dark world, has a little light.
Angel was a little puzzled at first, is this Jon's dream? How can it appear on a long street
After a while, the object he attached to was still moving, making Angel unable to confirm whether it was Jon, or even whether the dream was the wizarding world or the earth in another universe.
Until, the traveler encountered a pavilion.
As the old man in the pavilion spoke, the surroundings became brighter. Angel saw that there seemed to be a villa area behind the pavilion. Judging from the architectural style, Angel roughly determined that the place displayed by this dream should be the earth.
In particular, when the pedestrian spoke, Angel was almost immediately sure that it was Jon's voice.
Jon and the old man were talking in a language that made Angel both familiar and unfamiliar. When Angel listened to their conversation, he was very excited. He hadn't heard Jon's voice for many years. At this time, it resounded in his ears again, which made him feel an uncontrollable nostalgia.
Jon and the old man chatted briefly for a while, then walked towards the villa area.
As Jon walked, the road behind him was covered in darkness. Even the old man in the pavilion before slowly dissipated.
This strange situation brought Angel back to reality from his nostalgia and excitement.
"This is... an incomplete manifestation of the dream world?" Angel murmured silently in his heart. If anyone was in the ice room at this time, one could see Angel's eyebrows wrinkled tightly.
The so-called incomplete manifestation of the dream world generally means that the dream world cannot fully expand into the dreamer's dream.
In short, when you dream, your focus is actually only in the moment of the dream. For example, in a beautiful dream, you will focus on why it is "beautiful." In addition, there are many details of your dreaming, such as the details of the world you are in, the details of the environment, the details of light and shade, etc. You will not pay attention to it yourself, but it will be automatically perfected by the brain and finally reflected in the dream world. middle.
Although these are not important to the dreamer, they are a kind of rules in the dream world.
However, when the dream world appears incomplete, it means that the dream you have has not been expanded except for the focus of the current dream that is happening.
This kind of situation is extremely rare. Even the kind of dream that is extremely chaotic, one moment in the sea and one moment in the sky, a dream without logic can completely appear as a dream ecology.
There are currently three situations that lead to the incomplete manifestation of the dream world. One is being swallowed by creatures in the dream world, which Angel can basically rule out. According to Freud, the dream world is too vast, but there are very few native creatures in the dream world. Private dreams have passive defenses, and generally do not. Attacked by dream creatures.
The second is the means of dream wizards. Whether it is self-control or the control of other people's dreams, dream wizards can do this. Like the gourmet wizards, the dream-type wizards are rare characters. If they appear near the Pat Manor, Eureka will definitely know it at the first time. So, this can also be ruled out.
Then there is only the third point left. The dreamer's brain is damaged and his spirit is extremely weakened. In this case, the brain can't make out a dream scene so perfectly, and can only show some dream cores.
Angel had long known that Jon's body was damaged, but he didn't expect that Jon's injury had reached this level. His mental strength was so weak that he could not even support a perfect dream.
Originally because of the excitement of hearing Jon's voice, at this moment, I fell back into sadness.
However, Angel's sadness did not affect Jon's good mood in the dream.
He happily walked into the villa area, surrounded by dark chaos, but Jon didn't seem to notice it. Every time he walked, he would say hello to Chaos.
As he greeted, the dark chaos slowly condensed into a villa, and the villa owner and Jon exchanged pleasantries in surprise.
"Look who's back? Isn't that Jon our botanist!"
"Aunt Shen, don't make fun of me. I'm just an ordinary researcher now, and I'm still far from being a botanist!" Jon said rather embarrassedly.
Such a shy Jon was something Angel had never seen before.
"Xiao Xia waited for you for more than half a month. You won't be like last time, just come back for a day, and you will be called back to the institute in the middle of the night, right?"
Jon shook his head: "No, this time I can take a good rest for at least a month! Also, maybe I can take Hai Wei to the institute next time."
"That's good!"
After Jon said goodbye to the owner of the villa, Angel witnessed the villa slowly disappear and finally turned into darkness and chaos.
Jon has encountered many such situations along the way. He seems to know the location of each neighbor's friends very well. Even if it is dark and chaotic, he can accurately stop at the moment, wait for the villa to appear, and then greet the neighbors.
From beginning to end, Jon's emotions were very high and happy.
This made Angel, who had witnessed all this, even more depressed. Jon has traveled to Pat Manor for more than 20 years. He rarely talks about his friends on Earth and the people he knows, but it can be seen from the current situation that Jon has never forgotten them, even after such a lapse of time. Over the years, he still remembers his friends, even his neighbors, clearly.
In the past, Angel felt that Jon's mentor would sometimes suddenly become deep, and whenever this happened, he would deliberately be naughty in front of him, so that Jon had no choice but to clean up the mess for him. But he never thought about what kind of mood Jon was in at that time
For Jon, the furthest distance is not between life and death, but in this universe, and all my relationships in the first half of my life are in another universe.
Looking at such a cheerful, even youthful Jon. Angel couldn't calm down for a long time.
Finally, Jon returned to his home in the care of the neighbors.
To Angel's surprise, the building of this villa has the same style as other surrounding buildings, but on the side of the garden, where the swimming pool was supposed to be, a bamboo stilted building was built.
The appearance of this stilted building is almost identical to the stilted building in Pat Manor.
At this time, on the second floor balcony of the stilted building, there was a woman covered with a bamboo sun hat, lying on a chaise longue and basking in the sun while sleeping soundly.
Jon stood at the door, not knocking, but looking up at the woman.
Even if he can't see Jon's appearance now, inexplicably, Angel feels that Jon's eyes must be full of affection, with tenderness and tenderness.
This woman should be Jon's wife, right? Angel was almost certain of this guess, because Jon's aura of admiration was too obvious.
When he was at Pat Manor, Jon was in good health, and many women were very fond of Jon. Angel also heard from his brother Leon that even the head maid Mana had secretly greeted Jon.
But Jon has never made excuses for any woman, he silently draws a line and respects her.
Later, when Jon's body was exhausted, Angel once asked Jon, why not get married here and have a child? At least there is still a descendant inheritance.
Jon said an ancient Chinese poem. Angel couldn't remember the specific words of the poem, but the beautiful love mood in the poem impressed Angel very deeply.
Jon has a wife and he loves her. Even if the entire universe is cut off, even if there is a torrent of time and space that cannot be crossed, he will stick to the love that has never been forgotten and never faded.
Jon rarely mentions his wife and daughter, and Angel doesn't even know their names, but Jon, who read the love poem at that time, has never forgotten that sparkling feeling.
But now, although Jon just looked at the woman in the attic silently, Angel seemed to have re-perceived that radiant color.
Jon stood at the door for a long time, until the red maple leaves that fell from the wind had buried his leather shoes.
I don't know how long it took, a gust of wind hit, not only the leaves rustled down, but even the sun hat on the woman's face was blown off.
The hat twirled in the wind and finally fell into Jon's hand.
The woman finally woke up at this time, stretched her waist, and found that her hat was missing. When she turned to look for it, she found Jon downstairs.
She rushed to the fence of the balcony almost immediately and waved to Jon happily: "When did you come back? Why didn't you wake me up!"
Jon picked up the hat in his hand and shook it at the woman: "I just came back and saw the wind blowing the hat off."
The woman squinted and smiled, and looked at Jon silently.
Angel also noticed the woman's face at this time. It was a race that looked almost the same as Jon. From Angel's point of view, this was not a beauty, but it had a very classical and gentle temperament. , which is a perfect match for Jon.
When they expressed their affection with each other's eyes, Angel noticed that although Jon looked at his lover, in addition to being gentle, there was also a hint of sadness.
He thought he felt wrong, and just in time, a tear fell from Jon's face, which seemed to prove that Jon's mood was not completely happy.
Looking at the tears that fell on the leather shoes, Angel was stunned.
Jon was moved to tears because of the reunion after a long absence? But even so, why does it show sadness
Could it be that Jon knew that everything in front of him was a dream
