Since The Red Moon Appeared

Nightmare of God?

When Lu Xin heard the name, he was slightly taken aback.

Because he remembered that his mother had said to himself that it represented the ultimate of thirteen spiritual powers.

One of them is the nightmare of God.

However, although he had heard of it before, he did not expect that he would be brought here by No. 2 without knowing it, and seeing the bizarre scene around him, he even had a strange feeling. This is what the nightmare looks like.

Looking around, he found that his sister and father had disappeared.

I can feel their existence, but I can't find them, as if they hid intentionally.

As for Xia Chong...

He turned his head for a few glances, and saw Xia Chong floating on a piece of road debris in the distance, holding her multi-barreled revolver in her arms, pointing vigilantly in all directions in the darkness, looking unusually vigilant , suddenly pointing to the left, then pointing to the right, turning his head.

With so much energy, it should be fine.

Slightly relieved, he turned his head and looked at number two.

No. 2 quietly sat in a fragment next to Lu Xin, very calm, and slowly approached, connecting with Lu Xin's space, seeming to see Lu Xin's doubts, he explained softly: " Here, it is said that God once had a nightmare. Because God is immortal, so the dream he had has been preserved. It has always existed, but it has no connection with anything..."

"except me."

He looked up at the floating scene around him, and said softly, "I have been able to come here since I was very young."

"As long as you sleep, you will dream."

"When I dream, I will come to this place and look at the world like this."

"At that time, I was very scared. I was afraid that I would be left here forever, and I would never be able to leave."

"..."

Lu Xin listened to his narration quietly, and also looked at the world.

He could feel the coldness and emptiness of this world, where countless realities were torn apart and twisted to stay here.

But it’s just like the stars in the starry sky. It looks like the stars are shining, but the stars are actually small. The starry sky is endless emptiness and endless loneliness. Except for some far-fetched fantasies, there is nothing, and the emptiness is scary. .

It's scary indeed if one comes here as soon as one sleeps.

He kind of understood number two.

"No wonder you refused to sleep when you were a child, and because you watched too much TV, your eyes were very short-sighted."

Lu Xin glanced at No. 2 and said softly.

"Yes……"

Number Two looked at the torn scene around him, and sat there with his knees folded, dazed in a daze.

As if he also remembered something from the past because of Lu Xin's words, a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"At that time, I didn't dare to sleep every day because I was afraid, but because I was so sleepy, I was in a daze every day. Whether it was playing games with my friends or in class, I couldn't keep up. Follow other people's rhythm..."

"..."

"Yes……"

Listening to what he said, Lu Xin also remembered something, and said with a smile, "When you're playing eagle and chicken, you can't tell the difference."

"Everyone else ran after the hen, but you bumped into the eagle and ripped off his trousers..."

"..."

No. 2 also seemed to be a little embarrassed because he remembered the embarrassing things in his childhood, and nodded with a smile:

"Yes, that eagle is miserable, everyone saw him Tintin..."

"..."

The two slowly talked about the past, and fell silent again.

Lu Xin looked at No. 2, and after a while, took off his coat and handed it to No. 2.

"Put on your clothes, you're still naked..."

He reminded number two, then sat down beside him, and took out the cigarette and lighter.

"Do you want it?"

He gestured to number two.

Number Two smiled, shook his head, and said, "Smoking is harmful to your health."

"Um!"

Lu Xin nodded, and then lit.

It's strange that you can't even feel the air here, and you can't feel yourself breathing, but you can smoke.

"Tell me!"

Lu Xin was silent for a while, and then asked No. 2: "What's going on?"

"Why are you in that weird mechanical tree?"

"..."

"I've been in there for a long time."

Number two smiled and replied gently: "Do you remember our dean?"

"When we were in the orphanage, he was in charge of treating us, including me, who always had this nightmare."

"However, it has not been cured, and then that happened again..."

Speaking of this, he was silent for a moment, then looked at Lu Xin, and said: "You killed all of us at that time, but I didn't hate you, and I can understand you. You were very angry at that time, and It's not as good as you control it now..."

Lu Xin fell silent after listening to his words.

Whenever someone brought up this matter, he didn't know how to answer, or even what attitude to face.

"Actually, it would be fine if I died at that time."

Number two sighed softly, and said, "But after I fell asleep for a long time, I still woke up."

"It was the dean who saved me."

"I don't know how long it has been since then. In short, since then, I and a few other people have been wandering with the dean for a while. We have been to the south, the west, and some places by train. Farther than the West..."

"I don't actually care much about what the dean was doing at the time. I just think that the dean can cure me."

"But then one day, the dean told me that he had failed."

"He can't help me control this dream, so he can only give up on me..."

"..."

Listening to No. 2's understatement of memories, Lu Xin's finger holding the cigarette trembled slightly.

But he held back and just listened carefully to No. 2's narration.

"I spent a long time alone, coming to this place every day, or every three days."

Number two slowly narrated: "The time I stay here is sometimes very long, sometimes very short. Sometimes it is so long that I thought I would never go back, but suddenly one day, when I woke up, , and found myself lying on the bustling street."

"Sometimes, it was so short that I was kicked unconscious before I had time to be happy because I had returned to reality..."

"It hurts..."

No. 2 smiled and pursed his lips: "In reality, many people are very fierce and love to beat people."

"However, I still hope to return to their world."

"..."

Lu Xin looked sideways slightly, and saw several eye-catching scars on No. 2's pale and thin body.

"and after?"

He still couldn't help asking.

"later……"

No. 2 was in a daze for a while, then raised his head slightly, and looked at the grotesque sky.

His voice was soft, as if he was talking in his sleep: "I heard a voice."

"Um?"

"It's a very strange voice, right in this world."

No. 2 whispered: "Before that, I had never heard any sound in this world, nor had I seen anyone."

"So I was very happy and I wanted to talk to him."

"But he doesn't talk often, just occasionally, he tells me something."

"For example, what is this world, for example, what should I do to better protect myself..."

"Some of the things he taught me to do I didn't like."

"But gradually, I started to listen to him. After all, in this world, only he can talk to me."

"So, I started to listen to his words. In the real world, I did some things, such as being killed by some very vicious people, and then appeared in front of them, such as telling others that this real world is actually fake and not real. world……"

"..."

Hearing this, Lu Xin frowned slightly, and turned to look at number two.

He guessed something, but wasn't sure.

"What he taught me was very useful."

No. 2 sighed softly, and slowly said: "Gradually, more and more people around me believe in me."

"I started not to be hungry anymore, and I didn't have to be beaten anymore."

"Many people follow me and take care of me. Even if there is only one bite to eat, they will give it to me first."

"However, I don't really care about these things. I just think that after falling into a dream one day, I don't have to come back here..."

"..."

Speaking of this, he showed a smile to Lu Xin, and said, "I like to stay in the real world, even if I am beaten or starved..."

Lu Xin didn't know how to answer his words, so he hesitated and nodded slightly.

"That voice told me that my wish can be realized."

When No. 2 was narrating, he couldn't help showing a happy smile on his face: "He said he could help me return to the real world."

"And, stay in the real world forever."

"..."

Lu Xin couldn't help but glanced at him, but didn't interrupt.

No. 2 also continued to narrate: "So I obeyed him and kept doing what he said."

"When there were more and more people around me, he let me come to the land of chaos, let me follow his will here, to tell more people about that lie, about how false reality is, about a certain place, What a great..."

"When necessary, I will show them miracles over and over again..."

"Later, more and more people believed in me, and even in places as big as the fire, many people believed in me."

"..."

Having said that, he sighed softly and said, "Finally, at this point, he said he could help me."

Lu Xin couldn't help it anymore, and said, "Is he really going to help you?"

"Yes."

No. 2 nodded and said, "He told me that he can make me not be so lonely anymore..."

"For example, if I'm really afraid of staying here alone, or even afraid that one day, I will stay here forever, then why don't I try to bring a few more people here before I can't leave here Woolen cloth?"

"I listened to him!"

Number two's eyes became deep and remote:

"I didn't know how to bring people here before, until he taught me what steps are."

"So, when I entered the second step, I found that I can really bring people from the outside to this place, making this place where there are only me, and there are more people, making this forever lonely place , more human voices."

"..."

Listening to the lonely and absurd voice in No. 2's tranquility, Lu Xin couldn't help standing up.

He looked down at number two, his eyes suddenly became extremely complicated.

He seemed to want to say something, but forcibly held back, and after a while, he said: "What happened later?"

"later……"

No. 2 was silent for a while, seemed a little confused, and said: "Later, I probably did a lot of things. I heard that voice and let many people enter here. However, I gradually felt confused, because those people After I came in, I was not the same as me, I still felt very lonely, I still endured the emptiness here day after day, and I still wanted to leave..."

"So I looked for that voice and asked him to fulfill his promise..."

"He told me the way..."

"..."

No. 2 was silent for a while before speaking out: "He said he couldn't help me leave, but he could help me return to the real world."

"For example, pulling the real world into here, wouldn't I return to reality?"

"..."

"..."

"Shua!"

Hearing this, Lu Xin finally couldn't help lowering his head, and looked at No. 2 with extremely complicated eyes.

"It turns out that you are the source of the real hometown..."

"It turns out that the hell they mentioned refers to you..."

My cat started wanting to talk to someone again, that creepy guy who meows every day...
