Chapter 101: Chapter 101: Plane Landing
The plane landed. A snowstorm was raging in the United States, which was much milder than the one in China. Without saying hello to Shen Liuyun in advance, they went directly to the city where he was currently. Shen Muyun felt uneasy.
"Brother Yun, you didn't get much rest during this entire 13-hour journey. Aren't you tired at all? Why are you so excited?"
Chen Muyun ruffled Lu Huainan's hair and said, "It's okay. I'm not tired. I just feel better when I think about coming over to see what my brother has accomplished."
Lu Huainan casually hailed a taxi. "Let's go back to the hotel first. We'll be feeling uncomfortable due to jet lag. I've booked a spa that'll help you relax. Brother Yun, don't be so tense all the time. It's not good for your health."
Shen Muyun felt a little sad. The original three years had suddenly dropped, and there was no good solution. How could he not feel bad? Moreover, as his partner, he couldn't tell the truth, so Shen Muyun felt very uncomfortable.
Shen Muyun didn't speak for a long time. The car was quiet. Lu Huainan felt a little sleepy and closed his eyes to rest.
Shen Muyun suddenly recalled that there was an item in the mall that could extend lifespan, but it was too expensive to buy at the time. Also, the gems auctioned at that time, I wonder if they can still be useful now.
Sleepiness gradually eroded Shen Muyun's brain. He was so excited on the plane, how could this happen...
His eyelids grew heavier until they closed completely.
I don’t know what’s going on, but now as soon as I close my eyes, Nan Feng can dream, and the feeling of dreaming is really not good.
In the dream, Shen Muyun saw the boy under the camphor tree still holding a picture book, as if he was drawing something.
He walked forward a few steps and looked at the boy drawing two children. "What are you drawing?"
The boy looked up at Shen Muyun, as if he didn't hear anything, and continued drawing. He suddenly woke up and realized that this was a dream, so how could he hear what he said.
Shen Muyun watched the little boy running away into the distance. It was still an orphanage. The children inside were laughing and talking happily. There was nothing wrong. He had experienced this dream many times and still felt it after waking up.
Shen Muyun lay on the grass, not knowing what he could do in such a dream, or whether he could find a way to break through the dream.
"Why do you always appear here?"
The little boy just now sat next to Shen Muyun and continued drawing with a pen.
"Weren't you going over there? Why did you suddenly appear?"
The little boy smiled and said, "That's normal, isn't it? I just went there to see if there were any cracks in this dream. After all, I created it. But why can you come in every time and talk to me?"
Shen Muyun shook his head and looked at the surrounding scenery. "How can I know why? I can only say that this is just a strange dream. When I wake up, maybe everything will be fine."
"Aren't you looking for something?"
Shen Muyun sat up and looked at the boy who was drawing beside him. "How do you know what I'm looking for? Can you see through me?"
The boy smiled and put down his pen. "Of course I can see through you, because this dream, everything here exists because of you."
"What do you mean?"
The boy drew the camphor tree behind him and said, "It's exactly what it says. Only if you exist in this space and time can we exist. Otherwise, this place will turn into nothingness and disappear completely. Do you understand?"
Shen Muyun still didn't understand, "I'm not from this world. This is just a dream. Don't you know that?"
"Well, I know, but everything here is related to you. The orphanage, me, and even the current scene are all just your imagination."
For a moment, Shen Muyun actually wondered if he had some strange disease like paranoia. He was stunned and looked at the little boy again. His eyebrows and eyes seemed really familiar.
"You keep staring at me, what's wrong?"
"I feel like you look like someone, like Lu Huainan. Are you his childhood self?"
"Yes and no, because I exist in your dream, a figment of your imagination, but I am indeed his childhood. It's just that you are avoiding some childhood traumas, so you imagined a lot of peaceful scenes."
The boy pointed to the orphanage in the distance and said, "Look, there's a fire over there!"
Shen Muyun followed the boy's finger and looked into the distance. The flames shot up into the sky, which was simply shocking.
"What's going on?"
"It's your emotions that are fluctuating. Look, is the scene over there familiar to you?"
Shen Muyun looked at the scene over there and saw three boys holding hands and rushing out from the fire.
"I knew we could do it!"
"But what about them?"
"The teacher is outside, don't worry."
The three children smiled knowingly.
"What's going on? Because I'm anxious, so they..."
The boy who was drawing shook his head. "This really happened, but it's just something in your subconscious. Honestly, people can't construct things they haven't seen before. This is true for everyone. If I put it this way, do you understand?"
Shen Muyun nodded, “This is something I have experienced personally.”
"Yes, this is how you were when you were little. You three could be said to have been friends since you were little, but you all went your separate ways later on."
"What do you mean?"
"nothing."
The little boy took a few steps forward with the drawing board, and disappeared directly under the camphor tree. Shen Muyun wanted to catch him anxiously, but suddenly grabbed his arm.
"Brother Yun, what's wrong with you? Did you have a nightmare?"
Shen Muyun rubbed his eyes and saw only the dim light of the night light beside the bed, while it was already pitch black outside.
Look at Lu Huainan on the side, who is adding spices into the incense burner.
"This was sent by the hotel. They said it will help you sleep and make you feel more comfortable after smelling it."
"Brother Yun was fine. He fell asleep shortly after getting on the bus. I carried you on my back until we got off. Everyone thought you had done something, and I had to explain for a long time that you just didn't get enough rest and fell asleep. And some of the waiters looked gossipy and... "
Shen Muyun was lying on the bed in a daze.
"They could have sent quite a few. They probably thought we were a couple, but they also seemed to think we were having an affair. It's mainly because we checked into the hotel so late at night, and you were asleep. Hiss... our buffs really seem to be stacked up."
"Lu Huainan, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"
"I didn't. That's what they think. I really didn't do anything!"
Lu Huainan immediately dodged Shen Muyun's pillow and smiled happily in the corner.
"By the way, Huainan, that's right in front of the orphanage. Have you ever seen a camphor tree?"
Lu Huainan sat directly on the edge of the bed, "I didn't notice it, maybe it was there before? It's gone now? I remember it wasn't there when we went there."
"Huainan, do you like painting? When you were a child, or now?"
Lu Huainan shook his head. "No, I don't like painting. At that time, I had to learn a lot of musical instruments. I used to take art classes, but I gave up in the end. What's wrong, Brother Yun? Why are you so interested in me all of a sudden? Are you really slowly getting into it?"
Shen Muyun took the pillow and hit Lu Huainan in the face. "Don't be so self-indulgent. I didn't do that. I just had a dream, and I felt that the boy who could draw in the dream was you."
"Such a magical dream. Actually, I also want to see what Brother Yun looked like when he was a child. What a pity! It would have been great if our family hadn't moved here. Oh, right, I suddenly remembered that in a few days, we can go to my home in the United States to play and have a party. I guarantee it will be more fun than the previous ones."
Shen Muyun pinched Lu Huainan's ear, "But I feel very hungry now, but I don't know what to eat."
Lu Huainan stood up immediately and said, "I'll go to the hotel front desk and ask if there's anything to eat nearby, or if there's anything in the hotel. How about that?"
"It will be all right."
Seeing Lu Huainan go out, Shen Muyun immediately shouted.
"System, is there any way to prolong life? Is there anything in the mall?"
The system blinked, and a medicine worth 50,000 tokens appeared on the screen.
"Ding ding ding! This is it, host. Are you ready to redeem it? You have just enough money now. After taking this, you can extend your life by half a year. However, there are certain risks. After taking it, it may be half a year, or only half a month, or even just a day. This is something we just developed."
Shen Muyun's face immediately became full of black lines. "What kind of weird thing is this? You might as well just say it's something about probability theory."
The system flew around Shen Muyun and said, "This is a limited edition and is only available on Monday. If you wait any longer, it will show that you only have half a month left to live. You don't have much time to think about it. It's a good investment."
Shen Muyun gritted his teeth. He couldn't always be so unlucky. The moment he bought the pill, the time was displayed on it, extending his life by three months.
"Phew, fortunately, it doesn't seem as bad as I thought."
"Dear host, I have to say that you are really lucky. In about three months, you will be able to complete a lot of tasks and then you can extend your life."
"Just shut up! It's been so long, have you ever provided any useful information? And I want to know if the person from the Space-Time Administration is a child?"
The system was stunned for a moment, "Host, please wake up. How could it be a child? This is a rumor."
Shen Muyun also felt that his guess was outrageous. The little boy he saw at that time was most likely created by his subconscious.
"Nothing, I understand."
