"You may be wondering why we have carried on a name to this day."
He Qiu said: "But this is actually the last wish of my foreign grandfather. Before he died, he asked that his name and one of the things he kept must be passed on from generation to generation. If future generations do not follow what he said , then bad things will happen to them.”
He Qiu couldn't help laughing, "Although I now feel that the 'bad things' said by the foreign grandfather are just a kind of intimidation, most of the descendants still remember the teachings of this foreign grandfather."
"As a result, each generation of our He family named their son Heqiu. If there is no son, they will name their daughter this name, and ask their daughter to give birth to a son to inherit the He family business. Even if they marry, the children born You can't use your husband's surname, you have to be named He Qiu."
"This kind of family rules and customs have continued to this day... In fact, it is quite amazing. You must know that this country has been in turmoil since the end of the Qing Dynasty, and it gradually stabilized around 70 years ago. It is a miracle that the family survived the flames of war.”
After He Qiu said a long list of things about his family, Zhou Yue expressed his incomprehension, "Your family... what does this have to do with Mu Qin?"
He Qiu said: "The reason why I mentioned my family and my foreign grandfather... Didn't I just say that? My foreign grandfather had an item, and that item was passed down together with his name. It was that item... that caused Mu Qin's current situation."
Zhou Yue found it funny after hearing this: "An 'item' can make Mu Qin suffer from what you call a 'never wake up' mental illness?"
"Yes." He Chou replied seriously, "That's a very evil thing."
"I can't understand." Zhou Yue stared at the man in front of him thoughtfully, "What the hell is that?"
"On the outside, it's just a crystal-like stone, in the shape of a regular polyhedron. The surface of the stone is engraved with unknown characters the size of a grain of rice." He Qiu began to describe the "item" he said.
Zhou Yue felt even more amused: "Crystal-like? Transparent? Engraved with characters? Stone?"
"That's right, it's that kind of stone... the size can be held in one hand. This stone is placed in a relatively delicate and ancient pendant box with bloodstains on it." He Qiu said.
Zhou Yue then asked: "Why don't you show me...the magical stone you mentioned."
He Qiu sighed, "I have no way to show you, because this thing was lost a few years ago."
"That is to say, you have lost the 'heirloom' that has been passed down from generation to generation in your He family?" Zhou Yue said in surprise, "And now, after several years of loss, this thing can still make my Mu Qin a wake-up caller." A lunatic who didn't come?"
He Qiu shook his head: "I didn't lose it, it was my father who lost it. This 'heirloom' has always been in my father's hands. I only saw it a few times when I was young, and it has been carried by my father all the time since then."
"My father told me that this 'Crystal Stone' has terrifying power, and anyone who touches the stone will definitely become a 'Dreamer'."
"Dreamer?" Zhou Yue heard another term that he couldn't understand at all.
He Chou explained: "It literally means, dreamer."
"You mean, anyone who has touched this crystal stone will have strange dreams?" Zhou Yue seemed to understand.
"That's right, as long as you touch this stone, you will have some terrible dreams." He Qiu said, "I don't know what kind of dream it is. I heard people describe it as if I was dreaming." hell'."
"Occasionally, these 'dreamers' who dream of hell will record the scenes in their dreams, in the form of words or pictures, or even audio and video. So these things that record dreams will become new media , People who come into contact with these media will also become one of the 'dreamers'."
Zhou Yue understood: "Is it spreading like a virus?"
"Yes, it spreads like a virus." He Qiu unconsciously tapped the table with his fingers, "At first, my ancestors didn't know this... This is a very interesting point, other people who touch this stone They will all become 'dreamers', but our He family will not, maybe there is some magical power in the blood of that foreign grandfather protecting us."
"People who become 'dreamers' seem to have a very miserable outcome. Most of the 'dreamers' will die, either to kill or be killed. Some dreamers will fall into a long sleep in their dreams. Turned into bones. There are also rumors that these dreamers will enter the hell they dreamed of after they die, and experience a very terrifying cycle of life and death."
"Because they are protected by blood, they will not be turned into 'dreamers'. It was only through long-term experience and investigation that the ancestors of the He family gradually realized the power of this terrible crystal stone. When the He family realized that this stone would give When others bring disasters, the He family tries not to allow any outsiders to come into contact with the stone, and begins to recycle the items or documents left by those "dreamers" who have been in contact with the stone, that is, to recycle these media, to prevent new "dreamers" Man' was born."
When He Chou said this, Zhou Yue had already understood what he was going to say next, and Zhou Yue guessed: "Could you be the 'medium' left by the 'dreamer' who had been in contact with Mu Qin, so you are in a hurry Are you trying to find Mu Qin?"
He Qiu nodded: "That's right... Our He family has collected a lot of these 'mediums' left by dreamers. Most of these media have been destroyed by us, but some have not. I was told by the dreamer, so I always thought these 'mediums' were just ordinary collectibles."
"My father has been away from home for many years. After my mother died, he accidentally lost the crystal stone, so he searched for traces of the crystal stone all over the world. Recently, he came back to me and told me about the crystal stone and The dreamer told me in detail, and told me not to share the medium with others. Then I remembered that I had accidentally given a 'medium' to Mu Qin as a gift... "
"So you are in a hurry to find Mu Qin and want to get the media back?" Zhou Yue couldn't help clenching her fists after hearing what He Qiu had said.
He Qiu scratched the hair on his head with his hands in great distress, "It may be too late, Mu Qin hasn't contacted me for a while, the last time he came to my side..."
When he said this, He Chou seemed to remember something, he suddenly looked at Zhou Yue with shocked eyes: "By the way, when he came to my house last time, he came with you!"
"What!?" Zhou Yue was suddenly confused, and looked at He Qiu inexplicably, "You said that Mu Qin and I went to your house together? When did this happen?"
"About two months ago, when you were still in a coma... because I only saw you once, I couldn't remember your face. When we met just now, I didn't think of you." He Qiu recalled, "Mu At that time, Qin pushed you unconscious to my house, saying that he had encountered a little trouble and would hide in my house for a few hours. He even pointed at you in the wheelchair and said that this was his girlfriend. At the same time, I Give him the medium of the 'dreamer' - a music box, and you will be picked up a few hours later."
Zhou Yue had no idea that such a thing had happened. He lowered his head and subconsciously covered his mouth, trembling all over.
It turned out that Mu Qin was back! During Zhou Yue's two years of sleep, Mu Qin came back! Mu Qin even got along with the unconscious Zhou Yue for a while, but Xie Zhu didn't mention any of these things.
After a while, Zhou Yue came back to his senses, and said to He Chou, "Do you know who picked him up?"
"It should be Mu Qin's comrade-in-arms when he served in the army before." He Chou recalled, "I don't know his comrade-in-arms, I just remember that his comrade-in-arms should be named Xu."
"Xu..." Zhou Yue recited the surname silently, her eyes lowered, and she already had the answer deep in her heart.
He Qiu sighed for a long time and said to Zhou Yue: "I'm sorry, the things I said may sound like nonsense and nonsense to you. After all, this kind of thing sounds really weird, but I hope you Believe me, if you know where Mu Qin is, you'd better tell me as soon as possible, at this stage we still have a way to undo the dreamer's bad luck."
"Wait..." Zhou Yue heard He Qiu make an important point, "You said there is a way to undo the bad luck of the 'Dreamer'?"
He Qiudao: "It should be my father who has a solution. He told me that if I meet a 'dreamer' who has been in contact with the medium and has started to dream, I should contact him. He can release the dreamer's dreaming state."
After finishing speaking, He Qiu stared at Zhou Yue carefully: "Actually, you are also quite dangerous, because you were also present when I gave Mu Qin the music box 'Media'. The danger of becoming a 'dreamer'."
"So I want to ask you seriously." He Qiu frowned and asked Zhou Yue; "Did you dream of anything scary in your sleep recently? Some people may not remember the scene in the dream after dreaming, but they will Keep the residual fear of the nightmare, if you wake up in a trance and feel inexplicable fear recently, then you'd better come with me to see my father."
Zhou Yue carefully reviewed her state recently, then shook her head: "No, I don't think I have such a situation."
He Qiu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good... I hope the seriousness of this matter will not be further expanded."
"I'll help you find Mu Qin." Zhou Yue said to He Qiu, "Where is he... I already have some clues."
"That would be great!" He Qiu hurriedly took out his mobile phone and exchanged contact information with Zhou Yue. He Qiu said, "Please contact me at this number after you find Mu Qin. No matter where you are, I will go to find you immediately. During the time you are looking for Mu Qin, I will contact my father to ask about the situation, and I will call you to inform you about other matters later.”
Zhou Yue recorded He Chou's number in the phone book, and read it silently, then he looked up at He Chou: "Thank you very much, doctor."
"Don't thank me. In fact, it's my fault." He Qiu seemed a little frustrated. "When I was a child, my father told me not to touch his 'collections', don't give them to others or show them to others. I didn't listen to him. It's too bad that it caused Muqin trouble."
"You know that you have made a mistake, and you are actively trying to make it up, which deserves my thanks." Zhou Yue said.
