Rule Strange: Urban Legends That Don't Exist

Chapter 129 The Visitor of Lucid Dreams

Huh?
Chen Yan stared at everything around him with a clear consciousness, feeling amazing.

He was still awake.

Did Claude Moon's prayer last night still work tonight?
Chen Yan was stunned and looked around.

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

There is no 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 scene in the dream was not much different from reality.

It's nothing more than a vague memory in reality, and it can't be seen clearly in a dream—the corner of the bedroom that Chen Yan usually doesn't pay attention to is basically a blur now.

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

When he looked at Walker Street, Chen Yan was taken aback for a moment.

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

They stood in the snow, the dark circles under their eyes and the frostbite on their bodies had disappeared, and the Luke's physical features could be clearly seen——

In all outward appearances they were indistinguishable from the children of the rich uptown.

"Why did you come to my dream?"

Chen Yan stepped forward to say hello, but unexpectedly they ran away.

He only saw them running for more than ten meters in the direction of the downtown area, 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 of these two children, but the behavior of these two children is abnormal.

Where do they want me to follow?
Chen Yan was a little vigilant, and began to think in his heart, did I dream of them on my own initiative, or did they break into my dream?Like Claude Moon?
He thought for a few seconds before deciding to keep up with 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 stopped and walked in front, keeping a certain distance from Chen Yan.

They walked slowly, and Chen Yan was able to observe his dream carefully.

The distance from apartment 33 on Walker Street to the gathering place of mobile vendors, after he came to Walker Street, he walked almost every morning, so his memory is very clear.

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

But outside the street, where Chen Yan had never been before in reality, was a white mist.

Looking at the blurred fog, Chen Yan wasn't afraid at all, because that's what Yanan City looks like every morning—even the thick fog in reality is better than the white fog in the dream.

Outside of the familiar neighborhoods, those neighborhoods he had never been to never appeared in his dreams at all.

I didn't know how long I walked with the two children, and the surrounding neighborhoods gradually became dilapidated—this was a sign that I was about to come to the downtown area.

Chen Yan has only been here once, in order to find the Gunpowder Keg Gang's bearer safe.

He was not familiar with this block, and his memory was very vague, so there was almost a thick fog in front of him.

Chen Yan stopped in his tracks because he was cautious enough not 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 at them, trying 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 no sound came out.

They seemed to be arguing fiercely, and even grabbed each other's collar because of it, as if they were about to fight.

Chen Yan had no way to fight, because the place where they were standing happened to be in the fog.

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

Chen Yan didn't know anything about dreams at all. Maybe when he saw Claude Moon next time, he could inquire about some rules about dreams.

But now, he must be cautious enough.

Within a few moments of thought, the two children also argued and reached a conclusion.

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

He stretched out his hand, letting the blood from his thumb drip onto the ground.

The moment his blood touched the fog, a clear street appeared in front of Chen Yan—that was a neighborhood he had never been to before!
Can the child's blood make the non-existent memory materialize in the dream?
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 dreams, just like Claude Moon!

What are they going to do?
Where are they taking me?
The younger children bleed all the way, all the way forward, and the neighborhoods that do not exist in memory continue to emerge before their eyes.

Chen Yan looked at the overgrown and garbage-strewn street, and the ominous premonition in his heart continued to grow.

He followed the two children, walked straight forward, passed 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 winding, and there are towering corner buildings on both sides of the street. Most of the outer walls of those corner buildings are not painted. At a glance, the eyes are full of yellow-gray, neatly arranged bricks. wall.

The brick wall is not empty.

A large number of various paint graffiti filled every corner of the brick wall, even the gaps on the wall and the ground near the brick wall were not spared.

Those paint graffiti cover up the messy and chaotic pipes clinging to the wall, and the graffiti artist's skill is high enough that the pipes on the wall have blended with the colors of the graffiti on the wall, and they are indistinguishable from each other.

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

Chen Yan found that the sewer mouth here was welded to death with steel bars, and there was no way to open it, as if preventing something in the sewer.

Some steel bars at the mouth of the sewer have been pushed up by the things in the sewer, protruding upward into a deformed appearance.

Chen Yan looked around and saw a destroyed sewer mouth. The originally sealed steel bar seemed to be broken by something in the sewer. The steel bar broke in an ugly manner, exposing the dark space under the sewer.

He looked back.

Standing between the corner buildings, he realized that there is no "street" here - all the streets are just narrow gaps between the corner buildings.

All eyes are buildings, and when you look up, you can't even see the sky——

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

This is down town.

It is where most of the workers in Yanan City live.
