"Glasses, how do you know so much?" I looked at Glasses with some doubt. It was ridiculous to say that he guessed all of this. I couldn't believe it either. I'm not a fool. When Glasses heard what I said, he raised his head, looked at me with a smile and said, "You finally figured it out..."
I stood up cautiously, stared at Glasses and said, "So, who are you? What's your purpose? You're not Glasses, so where is Glasses? Before, Glasses was at most a nerd who wrote code, and it's impossible for him to know so many things."
When Glasses heard what I said, he suddenly stopped talking, lowered his head and thought, then said: "I can't tell you who I am yet. It's useless for you to know. But Glasses is not in danger of life. I am just a spirit possessed and controlling his body."
When I heard Glasses say this, I didn't lower my guard. Instead, I took two steps back, looked at him and asked, "What is your purpose?"
"I have no purpose. I just want to see if the people in your world can transcend fate, and if they dare to transcend fate. You can regard me as a spectator, a bystander, nothing more." When Yan Yan said this, he rummaged through the bag and took out a thin silver needle that looked similar to the one used to sew clothes. He said, "I will use the silver needle to insert it into your temple, extract your consciousness soul within a period of time, put your consciousness soul into the silver needle, and then insert the silver needle into Su Xue's temple, and you can enter the world in her consciousness."
"I know you are confused about my identity, but I don't have time to explain so much now. Since you entered the room, the examination for supporting roles has already begun, and Su Xue's "Chapter" incident is to contain you, the protagonist now. That Yaksha may be on his way, so time is limited. Don't ask so many questions. I know you still have many doubts about me, but you have no choice now. Make a decision quickly. If you agree, go to bed and lie down. I will leave here after transferring my soul."
Glasses said this now because he was afraid that I would ask a lot of questions again. Indeed, Glasses' current identity is so mysterious. If it were based on my previous personality, I would definitely ask for a long time. Now that Glasses explained it directly, I couldn't hesitate any longer. I walked to the bed and lay down next to Su Xue. At this time, Li Mingyao also came over, grabbed my hand and said, "Brother, thank you!"
"Don't be so polite to me." I lay on the bed with a smile on my face, but even though I was smiling, I was also very unsure in my heart. After all, this matter was still dangerous. Although Glasses said that the protagonist had good luck and would not die under normal circumstances, that was only the general situation. In many special situations, the protagonist was more dangerous than ordinary people. I had to be extremely careful, otherwise I would not know what happened if I died.
Glasses sat down beside the bed, picked up his silver needle and gave me a final warning: "You must be careful in this dream world, there will be many temptations to keep you in that world, not just Su Xue, maybe Qiu Xiang will appear, do you understand?"
"Well, don't worry." I nodded and closed my eyes. After a while, I felt a slight pain in my left temple, and then I fell into a deep sleep with a dizzy head.
…
What does a person want most? Money? Power? Health? Love? No, no, the most important thing should be to make oneself feel good. Money, power, etc. are all just for vanity. In this era when a bowl of fried rice can fill one's stomach with ten yuan, some people will spend thousands or tens of thousands of yuan to eat some expensive foods. Are those expensive foods really much better than fried rice? When people are hungry, everything tastes good. Eating those expensive foods is just for their own vanity.
There are many similar examples. In reality, people make money, struggle, and want power. All of these are for face and to make themselves feel good. The same is true for love. If there is a world that makes you feel at ease, without gutter oil, no Sanlu milk powder, and you can have whatever you want here, even if you know that this world is fictional, are you willing to leave this world
Ding ding ding…
The alarm rang again. I rubbed my temples and opened my eyes. I reached out to turn off the alarm, then lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling. Looking at the woman lying next to me, Qiuxiang, I could no longer tell whether this dream was reality or truth.
If I calculate according to the time in this dream, it has been my third year in this dream. Yes, time flies and I have spent three years in this world. This world is really perfect. My job here is to sit in an office in the government building. There is also a Qiuxiang in the dream. In the dream, we have been together for three years and are preparing to get married. However, there is always something in this world that makes me feel very uncomfortable and unaccustomed to it, but I have never figured out what it is.
There are also Kaizi, Fatty Cao, and so on, too many to count. Those former partners were not Taoists, but civil servants in government agencies. We chatted and gossiped at work, and after get off work we "dreamed" of having dinner and karaoke together, accompanied by our loved ones. Isn't this the life I have always been pursuing
Every day when I wake up, I ask myself, is all this real? The previous world may have been just a dream, and this world is real. I hold this thought every day and hide it from myself, wanting to live my whole life in this world. Every time I think that the previous world is fake, countless disgusting ghosts will appear in my mind. The appearance of those horrible ghosts makes me know deeply that the current world is a dream. Although I don't want to admit it, dreams will eventually wake up. I just want to let myself stay in this dream for a while longer, that's all.
I have been in this world for three years, and I have not met that Su Xue in all this time. I also tried to use the power of government agencies to find Su Xue in this world, but I didn't find her.
Another day off work, Wu Zhicong packed up his documents and walked to my desk and said to me: "Brother Xiaojiu, let's go to karaoke. The KTV that just opened recently is very good."
I nodded and said, "Okay, go book a room first, I'll pack some documents and come over."
"Brother Xiaojiu..."
Suddenly, a faint voice came from behind me, and this voice turned out to be Wu Zhicong's voice, but Wu Zhicong was clearly standing in front of me. I thought to myself that something was wrong, and when I turned around, I saw a bloody man standing behind me. This man was in tattered clothes and looked like a beggar. At this time, his eyes were fixed on me. This man was actually Wu Zhicong again.
The Wu Zhicong in the "dream" seemed not to have seen the bloody Wu Zhicong. He turned around and took out his mobile phone to call to book a room. I also frowned and looked at this Wu Zhicong and asked softly: "Wu Zhicong?"
"Brother Xiaojiu, please come out quickly! Don't continue to indulge in this world." Wu Zhicong's face was very painful at this time. He said, "We can't beat that Yaksha, and now he is fleeing with you and Su Xue's body. Please come out quickly, otherwise we will really die!"
"Go out? Really?" I sighed. Although I wanted to survive in this world forever, I knew it was impossible. Dreams are just dreams after all, and dreams will eventually end.
"I came in under special circumstances and cannot stay for long. You have been unconscious for three days. I came in because I saw you were still unconscious. Please come out quickly. Glasses said that the only way for you to get out is to find Su Xue. Su Xue should be in Cona County in this world."
After Wu Zhicong finished speaking, his body suddenly disappeared in front of my eyes, and cold sweat began to flow down my forehead. Yes, no matter what, this world is fictional. Although this world is the perfect world in my imagination, the real world still has things I need to do, my responsibilities, and Qiuxiang.
Thinking of this, I gritted my teeth, without saying goodbye to them, booked a flight to Tibet, picked up my wallet and left Chengdu.
When I arrived in Cona County, I was a little dazed. This world was too real. I looked at the people on the street and the bakery where Li Mingyao and I came across.
I thought for a while in Cona County, and then walked towards the direction of Li Mingyao's cabin. When I arrived at the cabin, I finally saw Li Mingyao and a beautiful woman. The woman was wearing a long white gauze skirt. At this time, she and Li Mingyao were sitting on the cabin, gazing into the distance. It looked really romantic.
I also climbed up the ladder under the cabin and walked over to the two of them. At this time, they also looked at me. Su Xue frowned slightly and asked, "Who are you?"
I smiled, then sat next to them and said to Su Xue, "My name is Wu Jiu, and I'm here to take you back."
"Go back? Go back where?" Su Xue looked at me strangely, with a confused look on her face, as if she really didn't know. I said, "I'll take you back to the real world, to be with Li Mingyao in the real world."
"Are you crazy? This is my world." Su Xue frowned and held the hand of 'Li Mingyao' beside her tightly, as if she was afraid of losing Li Mingyao.
"You know what I said, so why play dumb? I came to this world to find you. I have to take you back to the real world, otherwise Li Mingyao will be upset again."
"Li Mingyao asked you to come? No, I don't want to go back. Li Mingyao would never accept me. He didn't accept me even when I committed suicide. I am happy staying in this world." Su Xue shook her head vigorously, as if she would never go back even if she was beaten to death.
