Ye Fanyu didn’t care about these things, as long as the dumplings were in his hands, they were his.
"Yang Dongqing." Su Mu gave an order, and Yang Dongqing, who had been unhappy for a long time, immediately rushed forward to snatch it. Ye Fanyu was shocked. He did not expect Yang Dongqing to suddenly attack, so he quickly dodged backwards.
At this time, Tingting waved her hands hurriedly, her face flushed with anxiety: "Don't fight, Tingting doesn't like fighting, if you want to eat dumplings, I'll give it to you."
Yang Dongqing showed hesitation, and Ye Fanyu said angrily: "Put away your unnecessary sympathy, we are human! What about her? She is a creature in nightmares, maybe even a nightmare monster!"
"Stop arguing. Tingting doesn't want the dumplings anymore." Tingting became more and more anxious. She was kind-hearted and didn't want to see people arguing.
"Did you hear that? She herself said she doesn't want it anymore." Ye Fanyu said in a low voice, suppressing his anger.
Yang Dongqing finally unclenched his fists. He knew it was useless to snatch it back and it would only make Tingting even more unhappy.
After a small dispute was settled, Ye Fanyu picked up the dumplings and called Li Qiang to come and eat. For a man who had been hungry for three days, the eight dumplings from yesterday were basically the same as nothing.
"You eat first. I'll give you two this time." Ye Fanyu said coldly.
Li Qiang agreed in a muffled voice, but when he went to get the dumplings, he exclaimed, "Eleven? One less than yesterday."
Ye Fanyu looked carefully and found that there was indeed one less than yesterday. He looked at Tingting: "Why is there one less? Did you eat it or hide it?"
Tingting shook her head: "I didn't eat them, and I didn't hide them. Grandma made eleven of them."
Ye Fanyu looked at her deeply, said nothing more, and continued to eat dumplings with Li Qiang.
Yang Dongqing no longer paid attention to Ye Fanyu and the others, but asked Su Mu: "What happened after you left?"
Su Mu did not intend to hide, and said bluntly: "Just as I expected, the black shadow is not unsolvable. Just close your eyes, hold his hand and keep walking, and you will be able to return from the darkness at dawn."
Yang Dongqing was stunned: "Is it that simple?"
"It's easy for me, but not necessarily for you."
Yang Dongqing's face immediately fell: "What do you mean?"
"It's meaningless. In the darkness, there will be all kinds of sounds tempting you to open your eyes. As long as you open your eyes, you will be completely lost in the darkness and eventually become a monster like the villagers."
Yang Dongqing curled his lips in disdain: "Isn't it just closing my eyes? What's so difficult about that? Since I know those voices are fake, I will definitely not open my eyes."
"Well, you are right."
Anger flashed across Yang Dongqing's face. He always felt that he was being despised, but he had no evidence.
Although Ye Fanyu was eating at the side, he had actually pricked up his ears to listen.
At this time, Su Mu changed the subject: "I also got some information in the dark, information about Tingting."
He glanced at Tingting, only to find that the little girl had gone to the bedroom again to comb her doll's hair.
He slowly told what he saw and heard in the darkness, mainly about Tingting's voice.
Five minutes later, Yang Dongqing's face had been twisted into a hideous expression by anger. His fists were clenched tightly, with veins bulging on them.
"Beasts! These beasts! Fuck!"
At this moment, he only felt an unprecedented anger filling his chest, and even his skin seemed to have a metallic color!
He wanted to kill people, and he couldn't stop wanting to kill people!
Compared to his anger, Ye Fanyu on the side was full of joy: "Great!"
"What did you say!?" Yang Dongqing glared at him like an angry lion.
"No, don't get me wrong, what I want to say is that according to Mr. Su's description, Tingting is most likely the source of this nightmare!
In other words, this is Tingting's nightmare!"
Ye Fanyu changed his gloomy expression and showed excitement on his face, because he found a way to break this nightmare. A little friction was nothing compared to staying alive.
He said excitedly: "This is my third time entering the nightmare world. I have some experience with nightmares. Although nightmares are bizarre, they also have traces to follow. For example, if a person watches a zombie movie before going to bed, there is a high probability that he will dream about zombies when he has a nightmare that night.
In other words, dreams are a reflection of reality!
Mr. Su’s story just now made me understand why these villager monsters only appear during the day. In reality, Tingting is basically bullied by the villagers during the day. In Tingting’s eyes, the villagers are just villagers. They appear during the day and rest at night. Think about it carefully, what did Tingting say when she went out to find her sister before?
She called the villagers bad people instead of monsters, which was not normal.
This is Tingting's nightmare, so the villagers' behavior will follow Tingting's logic. Tingting's grandmother asked her to hide at home, and her home is safe, so the villagers cannot enter the house.
I guess this is also true in reality. No matter how much the villagers bully Tingting, they dare not forcibly destroy the doors and windows or break into the house.
The villagers would change their appearance and use various means to lure people out. Isn't this just like someone using a lollipop to trick Tingting out of the house? This must have happened more than once, so in Tingting's eyes, the villagers would use all kinds of sweet words to trick her into opening the door."
Ye Fanyu became more and more excited as he spoke, but he didn't see Yang Dongqing's face become even gloomier.
"Also! The son of the village chief in the time silhouette was called Tingting Fool. I thought it was just a casual remark at the time, but I didn't expect that Tingting was actually a fool! The reason why she is now in the state of a little girl is because her mind is limited. After all, the IQ of a fool is basically equal to that of a child..."
"Enough!" Yang Dongqing shouted angrily. He couldn't tolerate Ye Fanyu calling Tingting a fool.
A kind-hearted girl with intellectual disabilities, who had done nothing wrong, was treated like this. She loved eating dumplings the most, but she would rather starve than give them to her dead grandmother. Even now, when faced with Ye Fanyu's snatching, she was not concerned about whether she would starve, but was worried that they would fight...
The smile on Ye Fanyu's face gradually cooled: "Mr. Yang, I understand your feelings. You sympathize with Tingting's experience, but don't forget that this is a nightmare world. The real Tingting died a long time ago. The current Tingting is strictly speaking also a nightmare monster."
Yang Dongqing's chest heaved violently. He had no place to vent the anger in his heart. He knew that Ye Fanyu was right, but he was just angry and depressed.
Ye Fanyu turned his gaze to Su Mu: "Mr. Su, I know you are rational. I believe that with your wisdom you have already guessed all this, so the next thing is very simple.
As long as we work together to eradicate the source of the nightmare, that is... to kill Tingting, this nightmare will be solved."
