Chapter 6 Nightmare

"I haven't had a good sleep lately."

Hearing Lin Xiangcheng's words, Xie Yuanliang smiled bitterly and said in a hoarse voice.

"You don't look like you haven't had a good sleep." Lin Xiangcheng stared at him and looked up and down, "It seems like you haven't slept for three days and three nights."

Xie Yuanliang was silent for a moment and sighed, "I'm really not sleepless. In the past two months, I've been sleeping for seven or eight hours every day."

Lin Xiangcheng raised his eyebrows in surprise. It is logical that a normal person sleeps seven or eight hours a day. Even if the quality of sleep is worse, at most he will be a little tired, and it is impossible for him to become Xie Yuanliang's sick look.

Aunt Xie, who was cooking noodles, interrupted, "I have enough sleep, but he always has nightmares every now and then. Every time he wakes up, he sweats all over and takes a long time to get up."

Nightmare?

Lin Xiangcheng turned to look at Xie Yuanliang. Seeing that he was just a bitter face and did not refute, he couldn't help but be surprised that some nightmare could torture people into this way.

"Uncle Xie, have you ever seen a doctor?"

"I have been to the hospital a long time ago, and even the psychologist has seen it, but it is useless. Should I do the nightmare?" Xie Yuanliang sighed long.

“When did you start having nightmares?”

"Just two months ago, I did it once a week at the beginning, but the intervals gradually shortened. Now I have to do it every three or four days, and I am also worried." Xie Yuanliang shook his head, "If this continues, I am worried about whether I will die suddenly."

When Aunt Xie heard this, she spat: "Good luck, good luck, what nonsense!"

Xie Yuanliang just smiled bitterly and shook his head without saying a word.

After thinking for a while, Lin Xiangcheng asked curiously: "Uncle Xie, do you still remember what nightmare you have?"

"I want to forget." Xie Yuanliang's expression darkened, his face showed a palpitations. He hesitated for a while, and said, "The content of the nightmare is very strange. Every time I dream, I will appear in different places, hospitals, streets, squares... the only thing that is, every time I am hunted down by a monster."

This answer was really unexpected. Lin Xiangcheng was stunned for a moment and said strangely: "What monster?"

A trace of fear flashed in Xie Yuanliang's eyes. He licked his chapped lips and said with a stinging voice: "I don't recognize any monster that is. It looks a bit like a bulldog, but it has no hair, its feet are very thick and short, and there are two long tentacles on its head..."

The monster in the nightmare obviously left a very deep impression on Xie Yuanliang. As he spoke, a deep look of fear couldn't help but appear on his face.

As Xie Yuanliang's words, Lin Xiangcheng's expression gradually became strange.

There is nothing else, just because the image of the monster in Xie Yuanliang's mouth gradually coincides with some monster in his impression.

The juvenile body of the heart-breaking demon.

A strange thing that makes a living by sucking biological mind intelligence.

Their biological level is not high, only level 2, which is only better than goblins and skeletons, but they are not much stronger. Before they evolved into adult individuals, the juvenile body of the Heart-Splitting Demon is undoubtedly in the bottom sequence among countless monsters.

Such monsters are not common in Perrin continent.

But this is not the reason why Lin Xiangcheng was surprised. What surprised him was why Xie Yuanliang dreamed of the young body of the Heart-Splitting Demon. This is a monster from the Perlan Continent, and this world does not exist at all.

"Xiangcheng, do you think...will I encounter something dirty?" Xie Yuanliang's face was full of unconcealed concerns.

Dirty?

Lin Xiangcheng laughed silently. He had really encountered ghosts and resentful souls, but he had never seen such things in this world.

Besides, what Xie Yuanliang dreamed of was not a ghost or a resentful soul, but a young body of a heart-breaking demon.

After thinking for a while, Lin Xiangcheng asked, "Uncle Xie, before you had a nightmare, you saw that kind of monster, uh, such as pictures and images?"

"No." Xie Yuanliang thought for a while and shook his head.

This answer cannot be as expected by Lin Xiangcheng, but at the same time he was even more confused. Normally, people would not dream of things they had never seen before. Even the images combined by subconscious minds were mostly plausible and vague. But Xie Yuanliang not only remembered it very clearly, but even the image of the monster described was completely in line with the appearance of the teenage body of the Heart-Splitting Demon. It would be impossible to say that there was no weirdness in it.

This is obviously not an ordinary nightmare.

"Did the monsters from Perlan Continent really appear in this world?" Lin Xiangcheng couldn't help but think flashing through his mind.

Since he could travel back and forth between Perrin Continent and this world, it was not impossible for the monsters from Perrin Continent to arrive. But what he couldn't understand was why the young body of the Heart-Splitting Demon appeared in Xie Yuanliang's dream?

The young body of the Heart-Splitting Demon has no ability to invade dreams.

Seeing Lin Xiangcheng silent and showing a thoughtful expression, Xie Yuanliang seemed to have thought of something, but he wanted to say something.

Aunt Xie said frankly: "Xiangcheng, do you have a way to solve Lao Xie's problem?"

Lin Xiangcheng looked at Xie Yuanliang and pondered: "I have some clues, but I have to go back and check the information."

In fact, he had never heard of what happened to Xie Yuanliang. Whether it could be resolved needs to be investigated in detail before he could find out, but it is not now.

It is true that the Heart-Split Demon's genitals are very weak, but that is compared to Lin Xiangcheng in the past. Now he is just a level 1 mage. If he accidentally faces the Heart-Split Demon's genitals during the investigation, he will not be sure of winning.

The mage is a late profession, and his actual combat ability is not high at low levels. He only relies on a few auxiliary zero-ring spells to deal with a young body of a split-heart demon, which is no different from seeking death.

At least you have to wait until you reach level 2.

Xie Yuanliang had been troubled by nightmare for a long time. When he heard Lin Xiangcheng's words, he was immediately ecstatic: "Really? Xiangcheng, you, don't fool Uncle Xie!"

"Don't be excited, Uncle Xie, be careful." Lin Xiangcheng patted his shoulder and comforted him, "I will try my best, but I'm not sure if I say it in the front."

"Just do your best, just do your best." Xie Yuanliang rubbed his hands, and his fear of gains and losses were all revealed on his face.

Lin Xiangcheng didn't say anything more. When Xie Yuanliang calmed down, he changed the subject and asked: "After that, Uncle Xie, you said you had something to ask me, what's the matter?"

"I almost forgot!"

Xie Yuanliang slapped his forehead and took out a leaflet from his pocket. "Since people often come to the noodle shop to make trouble. I suspect this shop is making trouble behind the scenes. Can you collect evidence? I can call the police to deal with it."

On the flyer is a newly opened noodle restaurant with a literary and artistic name, called Yuxiuge. Lin Xiangcheng vaguely remembers that it seems to be a well-known chain brand in Huajing District. There seem to be two or three chain stores in the North District, but he didn't expect it to be opened in the South District now.

Vicious competition...

Lin Xiangcheng nodded and put away the leaflet: "Okay, leave it to me."

"I'll transfer the deposit to you later."

Lin Xiangcheng was not polite and nodded in agreement.

At this time, the plastic door curtain suddenly opened, Xia Wei leaned into it and shouted to Lin Xiangcheng, "There is a free space."

Lin Xiangcheng then woke up and chatted with Xie Yuanliang for a long time. He looked at Xia Wei's busy red face and smiled and said, "I still want you to have a meal. It's better to choose a day than to have a day. Why just give it back to you now and go out to eat?"

"Thank you for your kindness, but I'm still at work." Xia Wei smiled.

Xie Yuanliang looked at Lin Xiangcheng, then looked at Xia Wei, and waved his hand generously, "Xiaowei, you and Xiangcheng go out to eat. The store is free now. You should get off work early today."

Xia Wei was slightly stunned, looked at Lin Xiangcheng with a smile, thought for a while and nodded, "Okay, thank you uncle, but there are still a few tables of customers in the store. I will get off work after they finish eating. I can?"

The last sentence was to ask Lin Xiangcheng, and the latter would of course not refuse.

When Xia Wei returned to the lobby and was busy, Xie Yuanliang asked with a smile: "You have a good relationship with Xiaowei?"

"It doesn't count." Lin Xiangcheng said the car accident.

After hearing this, Xie Yuanliang suddenly widened his eyes: "You kid, you don't tell me if you have such a thing. Do you think of me as your uncle?"

"Isn't this nothing wrong? I didn't want to bother you." Lin Xiangcheng smiled.

"You..."

Xie Yuanliang shook his head, but said nothing.

"Uncle Xie, when did you change the waiter?"

"Half a month ago, Xiao Liu had something to do and went back to his hometown, so I hired a temporary worker. Xiaowei is a student from a nearby university. She came to the noodle restaurant for two days in a week." Xie Yuanliang said, "This girl is good, she has a brisk hands and feet and works quickly. Why? Do you want to chase her?"

Lin Xiangcheng smiled without answering, turned to look out at the lobby outside.
