Chapter 456 Red in the Nightmare
"Well...we've come across so many tombs in our lifetime, so maybe this is actually possible..."
Zhang Shougui couldn't help but hold his forehead and said, Zhang Zhenli immediately protested: "Hey, I didn't, I have always stayed in the clan land, but I didn't go out to guard the tomb like you guys."
"You're still feeling proud, aren't you? If my corpse really turns into a zongzi, I'll be the first one to eat yours."
Zhang Zhenxian couldn't help but stretch out his arm to hook his neck. Zhang Zhenli curled his lips and said, "If you really can eat your corpse, then I admire you first."
"It's not me eating it, it's my corpse eating it, I don't mind."
"Then it would be really painful for you to have your corpse following you."
"Tsk, that's enough, stop arguing. Our bodies shouldn't turn into zongzi. Have you forgotten what Xiao Fubao said, that after he rescues those two guys and gets enough sleep, he'll come back to deal with us? Even if our bodies really turn into zongzi, the stone door here is sealed shut and we can't get out. We don't need to worry about anything."
Zhang Zhenyi couldn't help laughing, and then interrupted their bickering. He looked down at his hands, felt the energy in his body, and said, "Do you feel that the energy in your body has increased a little bit?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone who was still adapting to their new soul bodies immediately checked the energy in their bodies, and they all found that it had increased as he said.
"Yes, I have a little more."
"I have it too, just a little bit. If I hadn't looked closely, I wouldn't have noticed it."
"Is this what Xiao Fubao said about actively attracting spiritual energy? I didn't even feel anything."
"Apparently, it said that once we absorb enough, we'll be able to encounter the entity. I don't know how much that means."
"Anyway, the more you absorb, the better. I don't know if there's any way to speed up the absorption process."
The last sentence was said subconsciously by Zhang Wunian, and just as he finished speaking, Zhang Daojun next to him paused. He thought for a moment, and suddenly began to practice the internal force skills he had practiced for many years.
One strand, two strands, three strands.
When he clearly felt the increase in energy, Zhang Daojun couldn't help but chuckle.
"Ah, it really is. It seems our internal force skills can be used."
His words were like a depth charge, and everyone's eyes lit up instantly. When they began to practice their internal energy and really felt the increase in energy, they could hardly help but cheer, as happy as a group of 200-pound fat dogs.
With this discovery, they can become stronger, and everyone would be happy!
"Okay, okay, in that case, let's all start practicing. We have more than a thousand years to waste."
Zhang Shouxu spoke, and the others had no objection. They each responded and sat down anywhere, starting to meditate.
After more than a thousand years, no one knows what they will become. Let time take care of it. As long as they persist, they will meet their beloved ones again sooner or later.
At the same time, Qiuyue in the modern world suddenly opened her eyes and couldn't help but screamed, "No!"
"A Ling? What's wrong?! What happened?!"
After hearing her voice, Zhang Xiaoyu immediately opened the door and walked in. He walked in a hurry and looked worried. Qiuyue was sitting on the bed with a pale face and a dazed look in her eyes. When Zhang Xiaoyu approached, she slowly raised her head with a frightened expression.
"I, I... I had a nightmare. I, I dreamed..."
Qiuyue's voice was shaking uncontrollably. The glaring scarlet color in her dream made her eyes overflow with tears uncontrollably. She wanted to speak out, but the panic and anxiety in her heart made her throat choke quickly. If she said one more word, she would definitely burst into tears uncontrollably like she did last night.
Zhang Xiaoyu said nothing upon seeing this. He sat down beside the bed and held her in his arms. His strong arms held her tightly, stroking her back while coaxing her, "It's okay, it's okay. It's just a nightmare. Nightmares are the opposite of what they used to be. You have to think in the opposite direction. Trust me, A-Ling, don't be afraid. I'm here. Don't be afraid."
Qiuyue buried her face in his arms with a trembling voice. The tears in her eyes seeped into Zhang Xiaoyu's body without either of them knowing, and he also "tasted" the bitter and salty taste of the tears in an instant.
Zhang Xiaoyu paused for a moment, but soon ignored the smell and continued to caress the back of the person in his arms, coaxing her: "Don't cry, don't cry, nightmares are all fake, A Ling, baby, believe me, don't be afraid."
Qiuyue huddled in his arms, listening to his soothing words and feeling the pats on her back one after another. Her spirit, which had been tense from everything in the dream, suddenly began to relax. She sniffed, raised her hands and hugged him back and forth, and hummed in a muffled voice: "Yeah, Xiaoyu is right, nightmares are all fake. I, what I dreamed of is definitely not real!"
When she was hugged from behind, Zhang Xiaoyu's hand patting her back paused for a moment, then he tightened his hold on her, lowered his head and gently kissed the top of her head, while his big hands continued to caress her.
"Yes, baby, just trust me, don't be afraid."
Zhang Rishan, who had just returned with his lunch box, heard Qiuyue's voice coming from the room. He paused and quickly turned on the screen to watch.
The little girl on the light screen was holding a blank figure with Zhang Xiaoyu's name written on it, and above her, several bubble boxes representing her inner thoughts were gradually disappearing. He quickly took a look and realized what had happened.
[Ugh… How could this happen? This nightmare is too scary! ]
[Shouxu and the others wouldn't do that, Ken, definitely not!!]
[Blood, so much blood, so suffocating...]
[Xiaoyu is right, nightmares are always the opposite, they are all fake. I can't believe it. Shouxu and the others would definitely not do that!]
[It’s so scary qaqqq…]
The three people who were far away also saw all this, or rather, they had discovered it when Qiuyue was still in the nightmare. At that time, a bubble box full of spikes popped up above her head, and the words were all about resistance and uneasiness to the nightmare. When they saw it, the three of them almost couldn't control themselves and shouted in the group. If it weren't for the last bit of reason reminding them, they would have exposed the truth that they could see everything long ago.
"A Ling, baby, did you have a nightmare?"
After knowing what happened through the light screen, Zhang Rishan quickly put down his lunch box and walked into the house. He couldn't see Zhang Xiaoyu, so he could only know what Zhang Xiaoyu was doing through the perspective in the light screen and the posture of Qiuyue holding an invisible person in reality. Although it was a bit troublesome, it was enough, so that he would not run into Zhang Xiaoyu and get discovered.
After hearing Zhang Rishan's voice, Qiuyue sniffed again. She raised her head and looked at Zhang Rishan who was striding towards her. She said, "Um... well, I had a nightmare. But it's okay now. I've recovered."
Hearing this, Zhang Rishan reached out to touch the top of her head. Qiuyue subconsciously lowered her head and let him touch her. She felt that the sadness in her heart had dissipated a lot again.
"It's okay, it's just a nightmare. We are here, don't cry."
Zhang Rishan touched her head and then her face, and said softly, "Your first priority now is to get up, wash up, and eat. Honey, don't let an unfounded nightmare ruin your whole day. It's not worth it. A nightmare is just a dream. Reality is the most important thing."
Qiuyue blinked and nodded obediently, and Zhang Xiaoyu followed suit, "Rishan is right, honey, don't forget, your friends are still on their way. They might arrive unexpectedly today. If they see you crying with red eyes, won't they say that we didn't take good care of you?"
Qiuyue paused, a scene suddenly appearing in her mind of Zhang Hailou, Zhang Haiqing and the others frantically accusing Zhang Rishan and the others of their crimes. She couldn't help but shudder slightly, then straightened up and said, "That's right, I'll get up quickly, wash up and eat. It's just a nightmare, I can't let it affect me!"
Seeing this, the two of them smiled immediately. Zhang Xiaoyu let go of her hand and let her get out of bed by herself.
The three people who had been watching the light screen breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. They thought that the matter would end there, but they didn't expect that less than an hour later, they were so shocked by what happened next that their heads were buzzing.
After Qiuyue got up, washed and finished breakfast with the two of them, she turned on the screen as usual and started chatting with the three of them. The content of the chat was nothing more than ordinary daily life, such as whether they had eaten or not. Although it was all very ordinary content, the three of them did not feel bored or annoyed. On the contrary, they were very proactive in chatting with the girl and wished she would come and chat for a while longer.
After all, who doesn’t want to have a clean place to relax and feel comfortable occasionally in the midst of the bloody life?
However, accidents and surprises (?) always come so unexpectedly. When Qiuyue was talking about what she had eaten this morning, when the five people were staring at the chat group, when their eyes were all focused on the QQ person representing the little girl on the screen, several figures suddenly appeared and made them freeze in an instant.
Just now, when Qiuyue was saying that she accidentally burned her tongue with the soy milk she drank that morning, three figures suddenly emerged from the wall behind her - yes, they emerged, appearing out of thin air through the wall, like ghosts. Although the three figures appeared as blank cartoon characters like Zhang Rishan and the other two on the light screen, they made everyone's hair stand on end in an instant, their minds went blank for a moment, their pupils shrank to the extreme, and even Wu Xie and the other two who were not there were frozen.
What is that?! A ghost?! A spirit?! Or some evil spirit?!
