There is an antique long street, and there are three or three old people sitting on the street enjoying the cool air, waving cattail fans and chatting leisurely. Children ran past in groups, leaving a string of crisp laughter wherever they went.
Half of the street is filled with teahouses, where more people are drinking tea and chatting, and there are faint sounds of mahjong.
Being in it just feels full of leisure and comfort.
When Chu Liang woke up, he found that he was in a medical clinic. After walking out of the door of the medical center, what you saw was such a scene.
"Dream Fairy Country?"
He returned to the medical clinic and looked at the old doctor with a white beard, his heart filled with doubts for a moment.
In Chu Liang's memory, he only remembered that everyone was looking for the Abyss of Dreams, but they encountered strange movements in the abyss and were accidentally pulled into it. I thought I was going to fall into the abyss, but why did I suddenly end up here in the blink of an eye?
"Yes." The white-bearded doctor replied with a smile: "A hiker in the mountains found you two and sent them to me. Why, you are not from my Dream Fairy Kingdom?"
"The two of us? Who else?" Chu Liang asked first.
"That's the little girl." The old man gently opened the curtain on the other side, revealing Tang Shi's petite figure.
Perhaps because of the noise, Tang Shi's eyelids wrinkled and slowly opened.
Then she fell into the same doubts as Chu Liang.
"Dream Fairy Country? What is this place?"
"Our place is the fairy land opened by Mengxianzun. It is said that it is far away from the outside world. No one has ever been able to walk out or come in..." the old man introduced warmly.
It seems that even though he has never seen outsiders, he has no objection at all.
"This is really..." Chu Liang scratched his head, "Unexpected."
He originally thought that behind the Abyss of Sleeping Dreams was the mountain palace where he met Gu Qingyuan last time. Later, he heard Xue Ziyang say that it was another ruined battlefield... Why did it become the Dreaming Fairy Kingdom now?
The old man didn't know anything about the Abyss of Mengmeng or Zhennanyu Mountain, saying that he had never heard of such a place in Mengxian Kingdom.
For a moment, Chu Liang had no choice but to go out with Tang Shi for a walk to investigate the situation.
The old man at the medical center said very kindly that if the two of them had no place to stay, they could come back to him.
Chu Liang naturally thanked him.
After that, he and Tang Shi walked out of the medical clinic and looked around along the street.
Everywhere I looked, almost everyone in the city was like this, drinking tea, drinking, playing mahjong, eating hot pot, children playing, old people chatting, and young adults doing the same.
"There doesn't seem to be anything strange..." Tang Shi whispered.
"No, it's very strange." Chu Liang shook his head and said, "Didn't you notice...that no one here has a job?"
"Huh?" Tang Shi was also startled by these words.
She grew up in a fairy sect, and this concept was not deep in her mind, but Chu Liang was extremely sensitive to it.
In the entire city, no one, old, middle or young, was working. This seemed extremely strange to him.
What do they live on?
With doubts in mind, the two returned to the medical center and asked the old man: "Old man, I walked around the city, why didn't I see anyone working?"
"Work?" The old man blinked when he heard this word, which seemed a little unfamiliar.
"If you don't work, where will your food and clothing expenses come from?" Chu Liang wondered.
"Whatever you want, just go to the Holy Mountain and make a wish." The old man pointed to the east, "There are holy envoys who practice dreaming on the mountain, and they will deliver whatever you want to your home."
Chu Liang looked in the direction of his finger. Through the distant pavilion, he could indeed see the shadow of a vast mountain.
Does this kind of place actually exist?
Chu Liang blinked.
Apart from being surprised, I was also a little envious.
…
"Huh...huh..."
Tang Shi sat obediently on a cushion, blowing on the tea cup in his hand, and the smoke slowly rose.
Chu Liang and the old man from the medical center were also sitting here, drinking tea and chatting.
Just now, the old man told them the origin of this place in detail.
It is said that thousands of years ago, the ancient Dream Fairy Lord opened up this fairy land and brought the ancestors here, and the Dream Fairy Kingdom has been established since then.
In Mengxian Kingdom, there are no monarchs or ministers, and there is no distinction between rich and poor. Everyone is born leisurely, lives lazily, and dies comfortably. Every time a person dies, a new baby is born.
Therefore, the population of Mengxian Kingdom has always remained unchanged.
Some of these people will have the talent to practice "Dream Art", and they will be selected to become holy envoys. The Dream Technique is an immortal technique left behind by the legendary Dream Immortal Lord, which can create everything out of nothing.
If you need anything, you can go to the Holy Mountain and ask the Holy Messenger to create it, and then someone will deliver it to your home. Of course, if the wish is too outrageous, the Holy Messenger will not fulfill it.
Chu Liang was also thinking while listening.
He had previously heard Wei Lang mention the name of the ancient Great Dream Immortal.
Of course, the Immortal Lord here does not refer to real immortals, but the name given to some of the Eighth Realm Heavenly Powers in that era. The Immortal Dynasty at that time canonized nine Immortal Lords, all of whom were top experts in the Eighth Realm.
That Great Dream Immortal Lord happened to rely on his "dream technique" to travel across the nine states. Could it be that this entire Dream Fairy Kingdom was created by him using his magical powers?
"It's really a paradise-like place." After hearing this, he sighed with emotion, "There is no danger, no war, no oppression, no work... all you need to do is make a wish. It is really a place that can only be dreamed of..."
"Well..." the old man suddenly said with a serious expression, "Mengxian Kingdom is not absolutely without danger, I was just about to remind you."
"Oh?" The two of them immediately listened carefully.
"The original Dream Fairyland might really be a pure land without any danger, but just three thousand years ago, a huge demon fell from the sky... The holy envoys called it 'Nightmare', and the demon turned into a monster mountain."
"From then on, whenever the moon is full, the moon in the sky will turn into blood, and nightmare beasts will come down from the demon mountain to eat people." When the old man mentioned this, his expression showed fear for the first time, "Those nightmare beasts It is ever-changing and extremely terrifying. Fortunately, there are still holy envoys guarding Mengxian Kingdom. As long as we are careful and vigilant, we can avoid disaster."
"Blood Moon... Nightmare Beast..." Chu Liang frowned slightly as he heard these familiar things.
This place seems isolated from the outside world, but it seems to be inextricably connected everywhere. A guess arose in his mind, but he could not confirm it for a while.
"Oh." The old man said, and suddenly said: "Tonight seems to be the night of the blood moon. You must stay in my hospital. Don't sleep, hear any noise, and don't go out. As long as you don't sleep If you don't go out, the nightmare beast will be unable to do anything to you."
"Why is this?" Chu Liang asked.
"This is our three thousand years of experience in fighting nightmare beasts." The old man said sternly: "If you sleep, the nightmare beast will appear from your dreams. If you go out and be exposed to the light of the blood moon, you will immediately fall into madness! Become the same as the nightmare beast The same existence as a beast!”
When he heard this, Chu Liang suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind.
He seemed to know why those people died suddenly!
Good morning.
