After the Little Crybaby Enters the Nightmare Cycle

You Yu didn't immediately open the door of 206. As a dream maker, he considered more complicated than Chi Nan.

For example, successfully teleporting the Dream Maker to their time point through the "ghost tunnel", perfectly avoiding all pollution and witchcraft damage, but can the same timeline contain two "Chi Nan"? What are the consequences of the existence of two dream gods at the same time?

And... how did Chi Nan get sealed in "The Crying Boy"?

This is the key to the whole cycle, and it is also the biggest doubt at present. Under the circumstances that the ins and outs are not yet clear, making a major decision rashly is no different from gambling.

You Yu has always been a gambler with madness in his bones, regardless of the consequences and no scruples, but now he dare not use everything about Chi Nan as a bet.

"You Yu?" Chi Nan noticed the strangeness of You Yu, "Are you afraid?"

You Yu stretched his lips into a straight line. He was silent, his palm holding the doorknob was soaked with sweat.

"But you know what to do." Chi Nan's voice is as calm as usual, but it has the power to let the unresolved dust settle.

You Yu knows that they are not doing multiple-choice questions now.

They have only one choice, let the dream maker survive this catastrophe, otherwise Chi Nan will disappear in the future...

time is limited.

Just as You Yu pushed open the door, a familiar voice came from the house——

"You are here, please come in."

You Yu breathed slightly, and it seemed that the other party had foreseen their arrival a long time ago, and there was no surprise in his voice.

The glass windows in the house were left open, and the curtains and carpets were wetted in the wind by rain.

The young man with loose silver hair was sitting by the window, his eyes were closed tightly, his thick eyelashes cast deep and shallow shadows on his face, and two moles of tears were shrouded in the shadows at the corners of his eyes.

The patter of rain wet his side face, which at first glance looked like wet tears under the light.

Although he was ready in his heart, You Yu suddenly felt a little at a loss when he saw the "Chi Nan" painted countless times appearing in front of him alive.

At this moment, "Chi Nan" exists completely, with independent body and soul, but he feels that the "Chi Nan" in front of him is more distorted than ever.

He wanted to tell Chi Nan in the system how he felt, but he couldn't make a sound for a while.

You Yu stood by the door like a sculpture, and the boy-like Dreaming God never opened his eyes.

His eyelashes trembled slightly: "I'm waiting for you."

Through You Yu's sight, Chi Nan clearly saw what Dreaming God looked like now.

"His eyes..."

Chi Nan just murmured a word in the sensory system, and the words were not exposed to the air.

Unexpectedly, the God of Dreams not only heard his voice, but also answered his question with a consistent quiet and gentle voice: "My eyes can no longer see. After severe pollution, my senses will increase with the pollution. fading away."

"The first thing that disappears is the sense of taste, then the sense of smell, then the sense of sight, and then to the sense of touch...Because I want to listen to the wishes of human beings, the sense of hearing will disappear in the end."

"Fortunately, it's not too late, I can still hear a lot of voices now." said Dream God.

The Dreaming God stretched his hand out of the rainy window, trying to confirm through the rain whether his "feeling" was still there.

When all the senses disappear, existence itself is like a bubble. Chi Nan, who has experienced the 229-day sensory seal, is very clear about the sense of nothingness that is deep in the quagmire.

"Can you hear me, right?" Chi Nan asked directly in the system.

"Of course I can hear my own voice, just like when you came into my consciousness a few years ago and could hear what I was thinking."

The dreaming **** who lost his eyesight finally got up and closed the window with his hands. All the cold and dampness was isolated. The dreaming **** seemed to feel a little regretful and rubbed the water stains on his face with his palm.

Soon, he will not even be able to perceive the rain.

Chi Nan: "Then do you know what I am thinking now?"

Dreaming God: "You want to use that painting to take me away from this timeline, to your timeline, and avoid these pollution and curses, right?"

The dream **** seems to know everything...

Chi Nan was taken aback for a moment, and said truthfully: "Yes."

The Dreaming God seemed to smile faintly: "Why do you want to save me? Aren't you afraid of disappearing and death?"

Chi Nan's tone was very determined: "I promised that others will not disappear, and I can't break my promise."

He just promised You Yu, he will not leave without saying goodbye again, he will work hard to fulfill his promise.

Dreaming God finally turned to face them: "I understand, I will help you."

His voice was very soft and faint, as if it would disappear at any moment.

The temperature in the room did not change, but the wallpaper around the room began to curl and turn black as if it was being burned. After a while, it turned into fine ashes and fell on the carpet. The reverse pentagram and blue flame snake totem appeared on the blackened wall. superior.

The spell energy field set by the wizard has begun to penetrate the entire tower of dawn, infiltrating room 206.

Soon, these powerful energy fields will crush the dream goddess and turn them into ashes.

The Dreaming God twisted his brows slightly: "It seems that time is running out, please take down that painting."

As he said, he finally looked at the dark rain curtain with his long invisible eyes, which was the direction of the ruined cliff. He said silently against the window, "Get out of here, I will find you."

He knew that the boy standing in the mass grave in the rain would definitely make the most correct choice, which he never doubted.

The invisible flame spread rapidly, and the air was filled with the smell of burning.

The tight time left You Yu no choice. He quickly removed the "Crying Boy" hanging on the wall.

The painting is the same as what they saw in the first dream, the background that should have been static is raining with patters.

You Yu's hand trembling when opening the picture frame: "Okay?"

He confirmed with Chi Nan again as before, and he was also confirming with himself.

He had a hunch that the decision to enter the "Crying Boy" to open the ghost tunnel this time had some major connection with Chi Nan's being sealed.

Everything is like a carefully designed game, time and space are intertwined, they enter the game step by step to complete the cycle in a limited time according to the designer's intention.

Just like the dream maker has done to countless dream visitors...

Before Chi Nan gave an affirmative answer, the voice of the Dreaming God rang in their ears——

"Trust me, you will be able to get out of this cycle soon, and all the time will be new."

You Yu looked at this eternally peaceful **** like Chi Nan, and saw that he smiled vaguely at himself: "Don't worry, there cannot be two'Chi Nan' in one timeline. You don't need to make it. choose."

"There has never been a multiple-choice question."

With the sound of dream-making mythology falling, the paintings in You Yu's hands broke away from the frame, and the strong light bursting from the paintings spread with the force of destruction, instantly turning the entire house, the entire dawn tower, and even the entire building into ruins. The dream city fills up.

The city was still shrouded in strong light, and absolute light descended again.

The night faded, the rain stopped, all life stopped breathing.

The vision quickly dissolves and disappears in the strong light, and all the cognition and sense of existence also evaporate and dissipate...

I don't know how long it took, Chi Nan felt that the surrounding glare turned into a dense rain, and the fine pieces were everywhere, and he gradually fell from the sense of weightlessness.

Through the sight of You Yu gradually returning, he saw countless ashes falling from the sky, like the debris remaining after the burning of those bright light fragments.

And where they were, they went back to Building 57, North Third District, Zicheng, and countless rooms 206 circulated in the corridor like a nightmare.

Only this time there was neither fresh mint nor green aurora. The fire burned all the way from Dream City to the entrance of the ghost tunnel. The house number of Room 206 was distorted and crackled in the fire. They were trapped again. in.

"The ghost tunnel connects two points in time. If these curses and pollutants are not sealed, they will return to your timeline through the time tunnel, and these negative energies will also destroy your dream world."

Facing the endless loop of corridors and the sky full of fire, Dreaming God was not surprised, as if all this was in his expectation.

"You should have inferred before that the reason why the 206 cycle corridor appears in the safe passage connecting the main world is because the system of the dream world is protecting itself. Through the endless cycle, the energy that tries to destroy it is isolated. It’s like trapping an invading enemy in a labyrinth with no exit."

This **** in the "past time period" knows the dream world that has not yet appeared.

He knows everything about them, even better than Chi Nan and Youyu in the "Future Form".

"How do you know this?" You Yu couldn't help asking.

At this time, the temperature in the circulation corridor has risen rapidly, and the burning sensation of the skin can be clearly felt in it, and the breathing has become hot and difficult.

"Before the gods die, the senses will degenerate and die, but at the same time, these lost senses will be transformed into another powerful energy, just like human beings will return to their light before death."

"In the process of rapid decline, I suddenly acquired the ability to predict and saw the future of the entire time cycle."

"So... Chi Nan, You Yu, I saw you." Dreaming God's fingers brushed across the burning wall, completely ignoring the tongue of fire on his skin, and pushed away a room 206 in the corridor. "I I also saw myself, and saw what is happening now."

You Yu and Chi Nan were stunned. Behind the gods is the little master bedroom filled with fire. Just like the night when the fire burned eleven years ago, sparks and ashes were swirling in the surging heat.

"I saw all cause and effect," the god’s voice was always quiet and peaceful, "We are on the timeline, where cause and effect are circular. Cause can be an effect, and an effect can also become a cause. The linearity of time is broken, and the future is harmonious. The past was mutual cause and effect."

In an instant, Chi Nan suddenly understood everything, and a certain premonition was about to come out: "Are you going to stay here and seal all the negative energy?"

Dreaming God: "I must seal these pollutions, otherwise they will spread through the ghost tunnel to the entire dream world, and your timeline will be destroyed."

"This is the key to the whole cycle, Chi Nan, you and I made the same choice hundreds of years ago. You stayed in the painting to seal the entrance to the dream world."

Hundreds of years ago, Chi Nan is the same now. He foresees his future, and then chooses to seal the entrance of the time tunnel with the few remaining divine power and soul, and seal "The Crying Boy" to prevent these pollutants from entering the future. The dream-making world forms a closed loop of the entire time cycle.

"It's just that you forgot. Over a long period of time, as a still painting, I will gradually forget like you, and then meet Xiaoyou again."

"I will experience everything you have experienced. From the first meeting with No. 9 and the birth of the "Crying Boy", the gears began to rotate. This is the only right choice we can make."

"The seal only needs the soul. You can take my body back to the future, Chi Nan, that also belongs to your body."

Therefore, the gods told You Yu that all the following time would be ‘new’, and from the next moment, they would be able to leave this cycle of vicious circle.

Chi Nan's voice trembled slightly: "But..."

His words were choked, because the other party was himself, and he knew that there was no "but" in this choice.

This is the answer to "The Crying Boy".

Chi Nan was sealed in his paintings for hundreds of years. It was not a forced choice, but a decision he made himself, because he had foreseen the future of the entire time cycle.

The Dreaming God knew that Chi Nan had understood it, because he had always been himself.

"I can see the tens of thousands of days and nights trapped in the painting in the future, only with endless rain and loneliness, but I still choose to stay."

The Dreaming God walked towards the fire-filled room, using his energy to seal the clamoring pollutants at the entrance of the time tunnel.

"Because I know someone will be waiting for me in the future."

"I am not a pure **** anymore. I started to have my own emotions, and I began to be afraid of dying, looking forward to the future that will come one day."

"Chi Nan, you are my future."
