dream maker

After leaving the orphanage, the two did not go back to the dessert shop, but went back home together.

Just now Shen Jiangnan sent a message saying that it is not appropriate to be in a public place when discussing for a while. The two of them didn't find a good place for a while, so they had to set the meeting place in the community where they lived.

Back home, but it was only around four o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Yu first put away the documents he got directly from Jiang Lanxin, and then took a breath.

I don't know if it's because he understands everything now, but Lin Yu always feels that someone is following behind him, and now he doesn't even dare to look at anything that can reflect it.

In contrast, Ye Yan was no better than Lin Yan, he sat upright beside Lin Yan, wiped his gold-rimmed glasses, and coughed uncomfortably: "Little Yan, let's Are you just sitting there waiting?"

After a pause, he found another topic, looked at Lin Yan curiously, considered his words for a while, and then said hesitantly: "Little Yan, let me ask you, do you have such things as yin and yang eyes? "

Ye Yan's tone was a little lower: "Can you still see that soul energy?"

"..."

Lin Yu was a little flustered in his heart, but Ye Yan's sudden question made goosebumps come out, he twitched the corner of his mouth, and said, "Get out, you have yin and yang eyes!"

"..." Ye Yan frowned, and said solemnly: "I'm serious with you, if it weren't for today's incident, I still think that dream maker is a scam, but who knows After that person brought me such a thing, I... I actually saw it too!"

"I know I know, you've said it many times."

Lin Yu twitched his eyebrows helplessly, looked sideways, and was silent for a while before saying: "I couldn't see these before, including the time when I had frequent dreams before, often after the dream was over, there was nothing left. , and this morning was also the first time I saw soul energy."

Ye Yan pursed his lips, and just about to say something, his stomach growled uncontrollably. He gave a dry laugh and rubbed his stomach: "Aren't you going to cook?"

"Are you going to do it?" Lin Yan glanced at him, fished out a previously washed apple from the tea table, shrank back into the sofa, and said, "It's okay during the day, but at night I always feel gloomy. Whoosh." After a pause: "Anyway, you didn't bump into that thing, why don't you go cook?"

"Don't."

Ye Yan waved his hands, fell silent for a moment, squinted at Lin Yan with lowered eyes, and said in a chatty tone: "It's not my guest who will come this time, yours Brother Shen will come over later, are you going to entertain him with these apples?"

"..."

Lin Yan choked for a moment, and just as he was about to say something, the doorbell rang.

Lin Yuan was taken aback for a moment, put the apple he had bitten on the table again and again, stepped on his slippers and ran to open the door, it was indeed Shen Jiangnan and Jun Lian.

He probably guessed that they would not have food here tonight, Shen Jiangnan was very self-aware and carrying two big bags of takeaway, he looked Lin Yan up and down, and his eyes finally fell on the pair of SpongeBob SquarePants he was stepping on. Putting on the cotton mop, he paused, pushed the takeaway in front of Lin Yu, and said concisely: "Take it."

"Eh..." Lin Yan instinctively took the takeaway delivered by Shen Jiangnan, and was stunned for a while, seeing Shen Jiangnan still standing at the door, and then he came to his senses belatedly: "I won't change it." Shoes, come in quickly!"

After finishing speaking, he scratched his head embarrassingly, and made way for the two of them a little embarrassedly.

Jun Lian came in one step ahead. He was still holding a cigarette in his mouth as usual. Once he entered the room, he looked up, down, left, and right, as if he was looking for something. After a while, he smoked Taking a puff of cigarette, he extinguished the cigarette butt, threw it into the trash can next to the coffee table, and vomited a smoke ring: "Eat, eat."

Ye Yan frowned, considering that the person who came was here to help Lin Yan, so he ignored Jun Lian's series of rude behaviors just now, curled his lips, stood up from the sofa, and walked towards the kitchen with his slippers on go away.

And also because of the arrival of Shen Jiangnan, the little uneasiness in Lin Yu's heart just now gradually calmed down, like a person who has lived in the dark valley for a long time, a sudden ray of sunlight came in, and even dispelled his heart. The darkness inside.

Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense emotions that had been tense all along gradually eased.

Several people poured the takeaway that Shen Jiangnan and Junlian had just brought on the plate and put it on the table. The food was still hot, and it should have been packed and brought from the food stall just after it was cooked.

"Little Strawberry, go cook some rice."

Jun Lian waved his hand at Lin Yan, and lazily ordered: "Is there any wine at home? If so, bring two bottles of wine."

"liquor?"

Lin Yan shook his head: "We don't usually drink alcohol, so we don't have any equipment at home, uh...do you all want to drink?"

There seemed to be a hint of helplessness in Shen Jiangnan's eyes, and he shook his head lightly: "I don't drink."

Junlian: "I want to drink."

Lin Yan: "..."

"Master, what do you want to drink, I'll go down and buy it for you?" Ye Yan rubbed his forehead, and his tone didn't sound very kind: "Can two bottles of Erguotou make it?"

"Beer is fine." Jun Lian casually lit another cigarette, paused for a while, and added to himself: "Forget it, you probably don't know what brand I drink. Let's go down together." .”

"Stop drinking, there's more serious business to deal with later."

Shen Jiangnan cast a sidelong glance at Jun Lian, took the chopsticks that Lin Yan handed over, and when he was about to say something, he suddenly seemed to feel something, and suddenly looked behind Lin Yan, frowning suddenly.

Lin Yan was taken aback by Shen Jiangnan's inexplicable glance, and his hand holding the chopsticks trembled, as if he had realized something: "Why... what's wrong? Is that soul energy coming again?"

As soon as his words fell, the other two were startled, and Ye Yan's movements froze instinctively. The small kitchen was terribly quiet for a moment, and the scene was extremely weird.

Jun Lian even put away that foolish look, and walked up to Lin Yu's back with three or five steps. After looking around, he frowned, and said in a surprised tone: "Why don't I know anything? Can't feel it?"

"eat first."

Shen Jiangnan didn't explain anything, just knocked on the porcelain bowl with chopsticks, and continued: "Eat the food first, and the rest of these things will be discussed later."

Shen Jiangnan didn't say much, and the few people didn't ask any more questions. Jun Lian looked fine, as if he had already guessed something, crossed his legs, and started to eat vegetables casually.

On the contrary, Lin Yan became a little nervous, he moved his lips, and after being looked at by Shen Jiangnan just now, his back was still stiff, and he didn't have the courage to look back.

Shen Jiangnan cast a slanted glance at Lin Yan, probably seeing the panic in his heart, and said in a soft and slow voice: "It's okay, we are still here, and unless we use the weather, she will also be afraid of the soul. I can't appear in front of you."

"I..." Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, "Actually, I'm fine, but my scalp is a little numb, and I always feel that someone is staring at me from behind."

After a pause, Lin Yan casually chewed two mouthfuls of vegetables, and said hesitantly, "Brother Chen, what is the time of day you mentioned just now?"

"Time of day." Shen Jiangnan put the chopsticks in his hand on the table, and said lightly: "The so-called time of day refers to a certain time of day in our case. It is the weakest time, similar to Soul Qi or Nightmare, as long as their strength is strong enough, they can break the shackles between life and death, and then appear in front of the living."

Shen Jiangnan's expression remained unchanged, he paused, and took another bite of food, "That's why there are such sayings as Tuomeng and Touqihuimen. Often what people see is actually the passing soul energy, not an illusion. It’s just that some people can see it, and some people can’t, so this kind of statement has always been quite controversial.”

"That is to say..." Lin Yan's expression froze for a moment, and he glanced at him hesitantly: "In other words, the ghost stories spoken by the older generation are all true?"

Shen Jiangnan nodded: "It is indeed true, but their understanding is also wrong. The so-called ghosts in their mouths are actually soul energy, which I mentioned to you before."

"Wait..." Ye Yan frowned, and couldn't help but interject, "Aren't you dreamers, how do you know such evil things?" , You were the ones who solved his dream before, shouldn't you exist in the dream?"

"No."

Jun Lian shook his head inscrutablely, and just happened to hear the sound of the rice cooker, so he got up and filled a bowl of rice by himself, and said, "Speaking strictly, this soul energy also belongs to Nightmare Spirit. Xiao Lei, don't be fooled by our title of dream maker. In fact, we are in charge of many things, but the division of labor is different. If you encounter phenomena that cannot be explained by science in the future, you can come to me. us."

"Come on, I don't want to come to you because of such a thing." Ye Yan snorted lightly and said without thinking.

Jun Lian pretended to be mocking and sneered, concentrated on eating a few mouthfuls of rice, and said to Ye Yan without raising his eyelids: "Young man, don't be so sure about everything, anyone can decide what will happen after this, why do you just say so?" Do you know that these things don't happen to you?"

"..." Ye Yan twitched the corners of his mouth. Just when he was about to say something, Shen Jiangnan suddenly spoke. He looked at Lin Yan and said lightly: "Bring the information you brought back from the orphanage to me. Let me see."
