Lin Canyang stared at the man in front of him for a long time. He opened his mouth, as if he had not spoken for a long time, and no sound came out when he opened his mouth.
He paused for a long time, feeling the long-lost vibration of his vocal cords, and tried to make some unclear sounds, but he finally gave up.
He slowly lowered his head and closed his eyes, as if he was asleep.
Su Mu chuckled. He knew that Lin Canyang had completely lost his fighting spirit.
Perhaps Lin Canyang had thought about revenge before, but after enduring endless pain and imprisonment, he now only wants to die.
It's a normal thought. When life is only painful, people will naturally think of ending their lives.
But Su Mu didn't come here to help Lin Canyang get rid of his desire for life? It's very simple. I can help you rebuild it.
People can endure darkness, provided that they have never seen light. Since Lin Canyang has forgotten what light looks like, help him find it again.
Su Mu's figure slowly disappeared and entered Lin Canyang's dream like a ghost.
Thick grey smog obscured the sky, the land was barren, cracks spread across the streets like spider webs, and weeds sprouted from the gaps.
Abandoned vehicles lay in all directions, their bodies covered in rust, and the tall buildings of the past had lost their color, with broken windows and mottled walls. The wind blew through the empty corridors, making a strange whistling sound, like the city was wailing.
There is no other sound here except the sound of the wind, no humans, no birds or animals, and even Lin Canyang, the main character of the dream, does not exist.
It was the first time that Su Mu saw a dream without a dream subject, and he became interested. Based on his understanding of dreams, he guessed that Lin Canyang's consciousness was probably on the verge of self-destruction.
Lin Canyang was unable to commit suicide. The extreme desire to die was suppressed for a long time, and it gradually fed back to his self-consciousness, so that his consciousness became increasingly weak and he was on the road to self-destruction.
This is the same as when a person goes crazy. When faced with unbearable stimulation, in order to escape reality, people will erase their own rationality and turn themselves into lunatics.
Bang!
Su Mu snapped his fingers, and the dream changed instantly.
The abandoned city suddenly turned into a sunny beach.
The sun is shining like a golden veil, gently covering the charming beach, shining against the blue sea and sky. The fine sand looks like countless tiny gems under the sun.
The waves gently hit the beach, making a soothing sound and creating layers of white waves.
The warm sea breeze blew on Lin Canyang's body. He stared at the beautiful scenery in front of him like a stone sculpture, and the laughter of children running on the beach came to his ears.
The beauties in bikinis lay lazily on the beach chairs, their faces behind the sunglasses filled with relaxation and joy.
"This... this is..." Lin Canyang raised his hands in disbelief. His once skinny arms were filled with flesh and blood again, healthy and strong.
He reached out and grabbed a handful of sand, the delicate and moist touch mixed with the warmth of the sun.
A line of clear tears flowed from his eyes. No one could understand his feelings at this moment, just like no one could know what it felt like for a person to suddenly see the bright and open beach after being imprisoned in a dark cell for decades.
"Sir, here are your meals and drinks." A waiter brought a plate full of food to Lin Canyang.
Lin Canyang took the food in a daze. Seeing something that was once out of reach now so close to him, he always had a feeling that it was unreal.
"Am I dreaming? Why does it feel so real?" He picked up a chicken leg and took a bite. The tender and juicy chicken meat instantly exploded on his taste buds.
His eyes suddenly widened, and he grabbed the food in front of him and kept stuffing it into his mouth like a madman. He hadn't chewed for a long time, and soon he choked.
At this moment, a pleasant chuckle sounded beside him, and then a fair and gentle figure holding a drink appeared in front of him.
Lin Canyang looked up and was dazzled. It was a young woman in a bikini with a bright smile on her face. There were many drops of water dripping from her fair body, like a mermaid who had just emerged from the water.
"Honey, drink something and don't choke." The woman's sweet laughter contained the indulgence that is unique to lovers.
Lin Canyang took the iced drink and drank it all in one gulp. The refreshing pleasure surged through his body. He was slightly stunned: "What did you call me just now?"
"Honey, what's wrong? Did you even forget about your wife after sleeping?" The woman rolled her eyes at him, then lay down on the beach chair next to him, stretching her graceful body lazily.
"Come quickly and help me apply sunscreen. I'll get tanned soon." The woman threw the sunscreen over to him. Lin Canyang caught it in a daze, looking even more stupid.
Is it a dream?
Is this a dream now? Or were those days of imprisonment a dream?
"Hurry up." The woman said angrily, and even kicked Lin Canyang with her white feet.
Lin Canyang's heart suddenly became hot. This familiar yet strange feeling made him feel unreal, but when he applied sunscreen, the touch of the woman's delicate skin was particularly real.
"Ouch, where are you touching? Disgusting!"
Lin Canyang couldn't bear it anymore. The emotions and even the body's instincts that he had suppressed burst out at this moment. He pounced forward, and then... pounced on nothing.
He fell on the beach like a dog eating shit, with his mouth full of sand.
When he raised his head again, all the people on the beach had disappeared, leaving only the lonely rolling waves.
"What!?" He was shocked and opened his eyes suddenly.
The cold, dark cell came into view, and he subconsciously wanted to move around, but he felt needle-like pains in his joints and the mithril chains on his body creaked.
The pain instantly brought him back to reality. This feeling of going from heaven to hell almost made him collapse.
"Awake?" An indifferent voice sounded in his ears.
Lin Canyang suddenly raised his head and stared at the man wearing a silver-white mask: "Who are you? What happened just now?"
His voice was extremely hoarse, like two pieces of sandpaper rubbing against each other.
"You can call me... arrogant. But everything that just happened is your future."
"The future? What are you talking about? That was just a dream, right?"
Su Mu nodded: "You can understand it as a dream, but isn't that your future? As a golden warrior, it's easy to have beautiful women on the beach. You can enjoy it at will as long as you can get out of here."
