Chapter 42
Chapter 42
After returning from the nursing home, it was still a long time before the next dream, and the days went on as usual. During the period, Tuwanzi had another dream, which was peeled off. In the middle of the night, he felt a little sticky around him. When he opened his eyes, he found that Tuwanzi had cut his wrist. , Hastily sent people to the hospital for emergency treatment.
Shi Chen dropped by after get off work, and when he entered the ward, he heard a group of people teaching Tu Wanzi.
When Tu Wanzi woke up, she was gossiped about the reason for her suicide. She had no choice but to say that it was caused by depression, so as not to tell the truth and be sent to a mental hospital.This is good, the enthusiastic old aunt in the same ward pulled her and said.
"Ah, Wen Xue, you're here." Seeing the people entering the ward, Tu Wanzi said enthusiastically, "Come here and sit, you can come by yourself. Why do you bring things here? How embarrassing."
Wen Xue's appearance immediately became the focus of the audience. All the aunts and mothers' eyes were shining, but after looking at it, these old aunts did not dare to come up. It was rare for him to wear a suit. The clothes Shi Chen made for him when he went out were shirts and jackets He wore a loose sweater coat, but no matter how thick the coat was, it couldn't cover the coldness around him.
Wen Xue carried a thermos in his hand, walked to the bedside and handed it to Shi Chen, "Auntie made it, why don't you get a VIP ward."
"It's full, and it won't be available until tomorrow." Tu Wanzi forced a smile and said, "That's good, the old aunt is so enthusiastic."
Wen Xue was picking up the car in front of him, Shi Chen came up first by himself, heard a few noisy words, and then saw Tu Wanzi's appearance, he burst out laughing, he seemed a little gloating and didn't deserve a beating.
"You are not a newcomer who just participated, how could you be recruited." Shi Chen stopped laughing, "Meet a hunter?"
Mentioning this, Tu Wanzi's face darkened instantly, and he whispered: "Maybe because there are so many people who survived, this nightmare game is more difficult than before. I didn't meet a predator this time, and everyone cooperated very well, but Those who wake up, including me, are the two of us."
The number of times I entered the dreamland, Tuwanzi found some ways to deepen my memory, so that I can remember most of the content or experience after waking up, and share it in the group forum. If everyone encounters the same nightmare again, The probability of surviving can be greatly increased.Perhaps it was because more people survived that the difficulty of the dream suddenly increased a lot.
The ward was a three-person room, and the patients in the innermost room had a lot of family members who came to see him. They kept chirping and laughing from time to time, which was very noisy.
Even so, they did not dare to speak out loud, for fear of being heard by the people around them and being regarded as lunatics.
Since Tuwanzi encountered this incident, the more times she has survived, the more paralyzed she is from the fear of death, and she even despises nightmares. It is this slight slack that almost killed her.
Tu Wanzi looked around, saw that the curtains around him had been drawn, and no one had passed by at the end of the bed, and whispered: "Get rid of that person as soon as possible, if this continues, the death toll in reality will probably increase a lot."
It's not that Wen Xue doesn't want to solve it earlier, it's just that he has selfish intentions, so he would rather follow Shi Chen's nightmare time. After all, Wen Xue is not sure that if he gets rid of that person, he can continue to occupy this body.
If he couldn't, then he wouldn't be able to see Shi Chen again before Shi Chen fell into a coma or died again.
Wen Xue didn't speak, but Shi Chen could see through it at a glance, he quietly stretched out his hand to hook Wen Xue's finger.
"You said before that no one has survived the fifth time." Wen Xue analyzed: "When he is the fifth time, I promise to catch him once. In fact, it was not that there was no chance before, but he pulled it back then A lot of people came in, trying to pull these people back, but I let him go that time. Whoever will get worse in the future, I knew that I should get rid of him at the beginning, and there will be endless troubles."
The wound on Tu Wanzi's hand was not shallow. To be cautious, he stayed in the hospital for half a month before coming out.
On the day she was discharged from the hospital, the attending doctor even dragged her boyfriend out and muttered for a long time outside the ward. When Shi Chen and the others got home, they found out that the doctor secretly wanted to introduce Tu Wanzi to a psychiatrist. Chen laughed for several days.
When he was in a daze before, Shi Chen didn't feel that the days passed quickly, but now Shi Chen feels like the time is wrong, and it seems like someone is stealing the time every day.
In a few days in the blink of an eye, it was the night of my fourth nightmare.
There may be a lesson from Tu Wanzi, and Shi Chen's eyelids are twitching early in the morning, Shi Chen always feels that something will happen.
"Brother Chen, what are you thinking? Let's have another shrimp slip." Lin Meiren picked up the shrimp slip and waved it in front of Shi Chen's eyes with her chopsticks.
Ever since the Wenxue dinner, Lin Meiren and Fang Zhengyi have often come to visit. They have thick skins, and it is common for them to eat and drink together.
Wen Xue didn't say anything, after all, he still didn't adapt to the environment with many people. Shi Chen couldn't see his boyfriend's intentions, and chasing him several times didn't work.
Shi Chen turned slightly, leaned into Wen Xue's ear and said, "Be patient, these two guys will definitely go back after dinner."
"It's okay, I have to get used to it." Wen Xue ate slowly, his mouth was vague, "After the matter is over, I want to treat all your colleagues to a meal. Don't tell me I won't show up at that time and go after the meal." Pay the bill?"
Inviting colleagues to dinner, Shi Chen chewed Wen Xue's words carefully, his face immediately became hot, fortunately there was wine to cover it up, others only thought that his face was so red when he drank a few more glasses and got drunk.
He understands Wen Xue's meaning, what it means to invite all colleagues to dinner, he knows very well.
He didn't mind making this relationship public from the beginning, but he always thought that Wen would have scruples.
Shi Chen was silent for a moment and said: "Then get used to it quickly, the Chinese New Year will be in a while, get used to it before then."
"Chinese New Year?" Wen Xue was at a loss, "I don't entertain friends during Chinese New Year, so no one would know that I have dinner at home."
"Go back with me to celebrate the New Year. Before meeting friends, you have to meet your parents first. It's my family's rule." Shi Chen suddenly had a good appetite, ate a few mouthfuls of mutton, and continued to talk nonsense: "I already told my parents that I found a boyfriend , take it back to show them during the Chinese New Year this year. Anyway, I’ll cut it first and play it later, why don’t you agree to try it.”
Tu Wanzi's chat was in full swing. Seeing the two of them rubbing each other, she raised her glass with wide eyes, but because she didn't know that someone in the room was there, she didn't say it clearly, but just said a few words casually, implying two words of blessing.
Eating hot pot was time-consuming, and after sending Fang Zhengyi away, Shi Chen realized that it was almost eleven o'clock.
Tu Wanzi helped clean up the dishes, made a cup of coffee and squeezed over, his face was not very good, his eyes were full of worry.
"Or, I'll help you in my dream." Tu Wanzi glanced at Wen Xue, and said seriously, "I know nothing will happen if you're here, but it's not good for you to reveal your identity casually right now. Being restrained. One more person to help you find a solution is better than two people."
Shi Chen glanced at the scarred wrist, and refused as if: "It's okay, we can do it, and your hand injury is just right, you need to rest more."
Wen Xue scratched Rice's chin and nodded beside him.
Tu Wanzi saw that both of them refused, so she didn't insist anymore. Besides, according to the news from Xi'an, Wen Xue was a duck to water in that world. She couldn't figure out Wen Xue's specific identity, and she knew that it would probably be superfluous for her to help.
"That's fine, as always, let Lingjiu help you watch the night."
They didn't go back to the room that night, they just sat on the sofa. As soon as the pendulum clock in the living room rang, Shi Chen was so sleepy that his eyelids drooped instantly.
Shi Chen woke up and looked up at the sky. It was gray and there was no sunlight. The boss of this world didn't seem to care much, and every time he wanted to create the atmosphere of a horror movie.
He looked around and found that he was in an ancient city. Most of the people here wore ethnic costumes. There were quite a few people in the city, and they seemed to be here for tourism.
Wen Xue was sitting by the river not far from him. Besides them, there were four men and five women. All the players, including Wen Xue, had a total of eleven players, including a seven or eight-year-old child.
Shi Chen went over to wake Wen Xue up, and after a few minutes, everyone else woke up, and there was an immediate commotion by the river.
The newcomers who participated in this nightmare game for the first time, what they said was almost back and forth. When they said they wanted to call the police, they thought they were illegally imprisoned, or if they were more courageous, they just left.The elderly have also seen a lot, and they will never stop those who want to leave, and they will not pay much attention to those who are noisy. After roughly talking about the situation in this world, it is their business whether to accept it or not.
"There are quite a lot of newcomers this time, and they are half and half the same as the old people." Wen Xue said.
They stayed away from the crowd and observed everyone.
Shi Chen pointed to the little boy, thinking of how many times they had been deceived before, he whispered, "Do you know him? Could it be the BOSS?"
"I don't know." Wen Xue shook his head and explained: "It's been almost a year since I left this world. If it's a vegetative person who came later and acted as the boss of this world, I don't have much impression. Wait, let me see."
There is something to see.Shi Chen slandered, and when he turned around, he saw that the Wenxue station hadn't moved, his eyes didn't move, and he stood there for 5 minutes.
When Wen Xue came back to his senses, he only said: "Probably not, it's just that his state is rather strange, he may be a coma after the operation."
"You can see that too?" Shi Chen sized up the little boy, and then at the others, someone must have noticed them.
Wen Xue nodded and said, "Well, everyone here is fine."
Looking at the area of this ancient city and the number of people visiting here, he added: "I would rather be troubled by these people."
"That's true." After finishing speaking, Shi Chen raised the corners of his mouth, and the old man who rushed over said, "My name is Shi Chen, and this is the fourth time I'm participating. How about you?"
The person who came was a woman, she was tall, she looked almost as tall as Shi Chen, her short hair was very energetic and well maintained, but if you look closely, she should be in her 30s.
This person probably didn't expect Shi Chen to be so enthusiastic. He was taken aback for a moment, then stretched out his hand and said with a smile, "My name is Daqu, and it's also the fourth time."
"Wen Xue." Just two words, Wen Xue added: "The same four times."
Daqu raised his eyebrows, moved his eyes left and right, and asked brightly, "You two know each other?"
It will be discovered sooner or later, Shi Chen didn't hide anything, and generously admitted: "Yes, we came together. What's the situation over there, are there any hunters?"
Most of the people Daqu has met here are secretive ones, like Shi Chen who is calm, except for newcomers, this is the first time I have seen them.She usually spies on the wechat group occasionally, and often hears Tu Wanzi mention Shi Chen and Wen Xue, and she thinks it is an exaggeration, but now it seems that she is really lacking.
"Currently, it doesn't look like there is, but it's hard to say." Daqu hesitated for a moment, then said honestly with a soft cough: "Qu Xiaoqing, I've joined your group nine times so far. Except for Tuwanzi, the group said , I have the richest experience."
Shi Chen smiled, "Let's call you Daqu, it's easy to remember."
Daqu nodded, and glanced at Wen Xue who was silent at the side, thinking that the boss really didn't talk much.As far as Wen Xue is concerned, the people who have spread in the wechat group, especially what they said in the group after Xi'an woke up, who can know the world boss.
She thought for a while and didn't say much. Instead, she pointed to the group of people and said, "Five newcomers, one male, three females, and that little boy."
"I see." Shi Chen responded, raised his brows in silence for a moment, and said relaxedly: "This time there are many newcomers, and there are no hunters. It seems that the story is not difficult."
Wen Xue caught the instant embarrassment on Daqu's face with sharp eyes, and asked calmly, "What's the matter? I have something to say."
Daqu smiled wryly and said, "Those are newcomers, but the elders are just like you, they have all participated four times."
Daqu didn't say it clearly, but the meaning in the words was already clear, Wen Xue's expression turned cold for a moment, he didn't say much and just looked up at the sky, it was darker than before, as if it was going to rain.
"Let's find a place to stay first." Shi Chen suggested.
