Chapter 129 Visitors in Lucid Dreams

Huh?

Chen Yan looked at everything around him with clear consciousness, feeling amazing.

He actually remained awake.

Are Claude Moon's prayers last night still relevant tonight?

Chen Yan was stunned and looked around.

He is now standing in the third-floor bedroom of his old apartment, with the wind and snow still blowing outside the window.

There is no own body on the bed, which means that this is a pure dream, not a situation similar to "soul leaving the body".

He walked around curiously and found that the scenes in the dream were not much different from reality.

It's just something that is vaguely remembered in reality, and can't be seen clearly in dreams - the corner of the bedroom that Chen Yan usually doesn't pay much attention to is basically a blur now.

He walked around the house, then went downstairs, opened the door, and came outside.

When he looked towards Walker Street, Chen Yan was stunned for a moment.

In front of the door of the apartment at No. 33 Walker Street, the two children whom I had seen before were actually standing.

They stood in the snow, the dark circles under their eyes and the frostbitten spots on their bodies had disappeared, and the physical characteristics of the Rook people could be clearly seen——

From all appearances, they were no different from the kids from wealthy families in uptown.

"Why are you in my dream?"

Chen Yan walked up to say hello, but he didn't expect them to run away.

I saw them running a dozen meters toward the lower city, then stopped, stood there, and looked at him again.

Chen Yan understood this time.

They wanted him to follow.

He realized something was wrong.

It is normal to dream about these two children, but the behavior of these two children is not normal.

Where do they want me to follow?

Chen Yan was a little wary and began to think, did I dream of them on my own initiative, or did they intrude into my dream? Just like Claude Moon?

He thought for a few seconds and decided to follow them.

He wanted to see what they wanted to do, and he also wanted to know what the scene in his dream looked like.

The two children walked up and down in front, always keeping a certain distance from Chen Yan.

Their steps were not fast, and Chen Yan was able to carefully observe his dream.

He walked the distance from the apartment at No. 33 Walker Street to the gathering place for mobile vendors. He walked it almost every morning after arriving at Walker Street, so his memory was very clear.

In the dream, this journey appeared almost perfectly - even the width of the street and some of the protruding bricks on the walls on both sides of the street could be seen clearly in the dream.

But outside the streets, where Chen Yan had never been in reality, there was a vast white fog.

Chen Yan looked at the blurry fog, but he was not afraid at all, because that was what Yanan City looked like every morning - even the thick haze in reality was better than the confusing white fog in dreams.

Outside of the familiar neighborhoods, those neighborhoods he had never been to did not appear in his dreams at all.

After following the two children for an unknown amount of time, the surrounding neighborhoods gradually became shabby—a sign that they were about to reach downtown.

Chen Yan has only been here once, to look for the Powder Keg Gang's unnamed safe.

He was not familiar with this neighborhood, and his memory was very vague, so he was almost completely in the fog.

Chen Yan stopped because he was cautious enough and did not want to go into an unknown environment.

The two children walked into the mist, stopped again, and looked back at him.

Chen Yan waved his hands to them and tried to make a sound:

"This is already the edge of my dream, I can't go any further."

The two children looked at each other and opened their mouths to talk, but made no sound.

They seemed to be having a heated argument, and even grabbed each other's collars, as if they were about to fight.

Chen Yan couldn't start a fight because the place where they were standing was in the fog.

The fog is the edge of the dream, so the place where they stand is outside the edge of the dream.

Chen Yan doesn't know anything about dreams. Maybe when he meets Claude Moon next time, he can ask about some rules about dreams.

But now, he must be cautious enough.

Within a few thoughts, the two children also came to the conclusion of their argument.

The shorter child won the argument, hugged the other child, and bit his own thumb.

He stretched out his hand and let the blood from his thumb drip onto the ground.

The moment his blood came into contact with the heavy fog, a clear street appeared in front of Chen Yan - it was a neighborhood he had never been to!

Can the child's blood make non-existent memories materialize in dreams?

Until now, Chen Yan has been able to confirm that everything that is emerging in his dream is not a pure coincidence.

Those two children visited his dream, just like Claude Moon!

What are they going to do?

Where are they taking me?

The younger child was bleeding all the way as he walked forward, with neighborhoods that no longer existed in his memory constantly appearing in front of his eyes.

Chen Yan looked at the streets overgrown with weeds and littered with garbage, and the ominous premonition in his heart continued to grow.

He followed the two children and walked forward, passing through a dark alley, and came to a neighborhood that was very different from the style of Yanan City——

The narrow streets are winding, and both sides of the street are lined with towering corner buildings. Most of the exterior walls of those corner buildings are not painted. At a glance, they are filled with yellow-gray bricks composed of neatly arranged bricks.

wall.

The brick wall is not empty.

A large number of graffiti with various paints fill every corner of the brick wall. Even the gaps in the wall and the ground near the brick wall are not immune.

The paint graffiti covered up the various pipes clinging to the wall in a disorderly manner. The graffiti artist was so skilled that the pipes on the wall had merged with the colors of the graffiti on the wall, becoming indistinguishable from each other.

Under the corner of the corner building, weeds and snow covered the sewer opening.

Chen Yan discovered that the sewer opening here was welded shut with steel bars and could not be opened, as if to prevent something in the sewer.

The steel bars at some sewer entrances have been pushed up by things in the sewer, and they protrude upward into a deformed shape.

Chen Yan looked around and saw a destroyed sewer entrance. The originally sealed steel bars seemed to have been broken by something in the sewer. The steel bars broke in an ugly way, revealing the dark space under the sewer.

He looked away.

Standing between the corner buildings, he realized that there were no "streets" here at all - all streets were just small gaps between the corner buildings.

Everything you see is buildings, and you can’t even see the sky when you raise your head——

Looking up in the narrow "street" between buildings, the surrounding view is completely blocked by the towering buildings, and only a palm-sized canopy is exposed in the vertical upward direction.

This is Xiacheng District.

It is where most workers in Yanan City live.
