A lot of it is just written down as I think of it.

For someone who was reading this note for the first time, it was obviously very unfriendly. Especially the research experience on weirdness and ancient books, which were simply heavenly books to Lin Mo.

It's like listening to an unconscious old man murmuring in your ear. You can hear him, but you have no idea what he is saying.

But strictly speaking, there is still some gain.

For example, my mother’s notes say that strange things have existed since ancient times.

In ancient times, there was the story of the Yellow Millet Dream, and another story about an emperor beheading a snake in his dream. These stories may not be entirely legends, and some of them may be true.

It's just that there weren't many strange things back then, and there were occasionally more in some years, which led to the death of a large number of people, just like the advent of a plague. For example, my mother said that there was a plague in the Central Plains recorded in history books 600 years ago, which caused a thousand miles of uninhabited areas. This might have been caused by a strange nightmare.

In short, it looks very mysterious.

But my mother is doing very serious research and has come up with a lot of theories and circumstantial evidence to prove it.

Many of the things recorded in these notes are very detailed. It is obvious that what my father said about my mother being an expert in the study of weird things is not an exaggeration at all.

In Lin Mo's opinion, if his mother were alive now, she would definitely be an academician of the Academy of Sciences, and would be more than qualified to be a vice president.

Keep reading.

In addition to some research experiences, the notes also contain some of my own trivial matters and my mood.

It’s like a modern circle of friends.

Whenever she encounters some annoying or happy things, my mother will write them down as a record.

Lin Mo saw a passage that was written like this.

"Xiao Mo is already three months old. He is so cute, but he is so strong in his mouth. It hurts me so much when he drinks milk. I want to push him away, but I can't bear it. Forget it, just let him be."

"The little guy likes to act cute. I wonder what he will look like when he grows up. He won't be as ugly as his dad. People say sons look like their moms. He must be like me. I'm looking forward to it!"

"Every time I see Xiao Mo, I think of him. It would be great if he was there too. Only then would our family be truly reunited."

"After investigation and experimentation, I am certain that humans have souls. Perhaps one day, I will be able to see him. Lao Lin also talked about this, but he disagreed with my idea and said it was too dangerous. Haha, I have reservations about this. Strange things are always dangerous."

"Sometimes I wonder if he will be as cute as Xiao Mo. I think he will be."

Seeing this, Lin Mo was a little puzzled.

Who is the 'he' in my mother's notes? He seems to be a very important person.

He must be dead.

Because my mother said that people have souls, so I might meet him one day.

But my mother didn't write who this 'he' was.

Lin Mo planned to continue reading. There was a lot more content at the end of the notes, and he should be able to find the answers he wanted.

But at this moment, a faint soft light came out of the notebook, and then slowly dissipated, like a drop of water falling on a hot iron.

It suddenly turned into gas.

Lin Mo was confused.

What’s going on? “We’ve arrived at Fangqiao intersection. Anyone getting off?” the ticket seller on the minibus called out.

Lin Mo reacted immediately.

This is the area outside the hotel.

This note is one of the memories of the hotel, and it will disappear once you leave.

In other words, you cannot take anything out of the hotel.

The same goes for notes and people.

"I'm getting off." Lin Mo stood up and walked over, waved to the ticket seller, and got off the bus.

This place is where Lin Mo and his father got in the car before, and it is also the polluted area of ​​​​this county.

Although it is a polluted area, the darkness and weirdness here are obviously less than that of the hotel area.

Lin Mo secretly thought it was a pity.

There was obviously more content in his mother's notes that interested him, but he couldn't take the notes out.

On the other hand, it was impossible for my mother in the hotel to come out.

Dad may have realized this a long time ago, so he decided to stay alone instead of bringing Mom out, because once they leave the hotel, the Mom that is made up of memories will disappear just like this note.

"How about I go back again?" Lin Mo pondered for a moment.

I don't think it's necessary.

I just came out, so I should contact Professor Xie first. Even if I need to go back, there is no need to rush.

Besides, we have to wait at least three more days for the minibus to show up.

Lin Mo took out the escape bean and ate one.

Wake up instantly.

After checking out of the small hotel, Lin Mo did not delay. He first greeted Professor Xie and said that the matter was done.

Professor Xie was surprised.

"Lin Mo, did you get the Curse of the Undead?"

Lin Mo said yes.

"Are you okay?" Professor Xie was afraid that Lin Mo would be like Lin Nan, who would lose something even though they were cursed by the undead.

For example, memory, or something else.

In short, there is a price to pay.

Lin Mo didn't say much about this. Now it seemed that he was sure to make a profit and had no loss. He didn't lose anything because of this curse.

But just because there is no such thing now doesn’t mean there won’t be one in the future.

Lin Mo had a hunch that the monster holding the human skin booklet, the so-called life-and-death monster, would not give up.

Lin Mo did not say much about the process of obtaining the Curse of the Undead.

This concerns my mother, so I can only tell Professor Xie and we can discuss it in detail when we meet.

Professor Xie did not ask any further questions.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Mo took a bus back to Luoyan City.

Next, whether you are going to Houniao City or Qianlong City, you need to transfer in Luoyan City.

There is a notice posted on the bus that intercity buses like this will stop running in a few days.

The day when the nightmare will fully come is getting closer.

Whether you are willing or not, whether you are ready or not, what is meant to come will come.

In a place like Luoyan City, which is not a first-tier city, there is no time to build a proper safety zone.

But small safe zones have been built.

On weekdays, everyone works and lives normally, and only stays together when sleeping, so as to ensure safety.

Even Lin Mo knew that the "safe sleep system" had been implemented.

This was proposed by the General Administration.

Aims to ensure the safety of every people's life.

Simply put, there is no country in the world that can cultivate a safe zone that can accommodate everyone, and the threat of the nightmare world only exists after people fall asleep.

Therefore, the 'safe sleep system' is a regulation for allocating sleep time at a regular interval.

It is very likely that it will be passed by the conference and directly become laws and regulations.

In simple terms, everyone will allocate sleep time according to different jobs and ages.

For example, a bus driver, in addition to his daily working hours, can be allocated sleep time after get off work, assuming it is from 11pm to 5:30am.

Only during this period can he enter the 'safe zone' and sleep safely.

People who work night shifts can arrange their sleep time to a certain period during the day.

In this way, the safe zone is rotated to ensure that everyone can fall asleep in a safe area.

Lin Mo admired the person who made this rule.

But obviously, it is still difficult to achieve this goal. First of all, it requires everyone's compliance.

Of course, managing so many people is also an extremely difficult task.

Lin Mo even speculated that in the near future, "safe sleep time" might become a commodity and become an object of buying and selling.

"The nightmare era is coming. Each of us is a participant in this cross-era change. A new chapter of history will begin to be written from this moment, and the ones who write this great chapter are you, me, and everyone."

This is the slogan displayed on the big screen on the road.

It reminds everyone at all times that a new era is coming.

After getting off the bus in Luoyan City, Lin Mo looked at this city that he was very familiar with. He had lived here for more than ten years, and many places were filled with memories of the past.

Thinking back on it now, Lin Mo was filled with sighs.

Just at this moment, a police car drove past Lin Mo, but soon stopped.

The car window rolled down and a man turned his head to look at Lin Mo.

"Lin Mo?"

Lin Mo took a look at the man and recognized him.

"Xiang Xin!"

In a small roadside restaurant, Lin Mo had a pleasant conversation with the man in police uniform.

Xiang Xin was his high school classmate. He was a rather mischievous kid back then. He hadn’t seen him since graduation. He never expected that he would become a policeman.

"I was an average student at that time, and I couldn't get into a top university, so I went to the police academy."

Xiang Xin said that it is hard to describe what happened in the past.

Fortunately, I am doing well now and can be considered a small leader.

It can be seen that Xiang Xin is quite satisfied with his current job and status.

The main reason is that in this environment where the nightmare is coming, no matter how good the job outside is, it is not as good as the one within the system. Even if you are just a small clerk, your social status and power are much stronger than ordinary people.

It's like an employee choosing his boss.

The more powerful the boss is, the easier it is for the employees to get by.

A truth.

So Xiang Xin was very satisfied, even a little proud.

You can see it.

Then Xiang Xin asked Lin Mo what he was busy with recently, and said that if he had any troubles or problems, he could come to him.

"We were high school classmates, and we have a real bond. Even if we haven't been in touch for so many years, the friendship we had in the past is still there. As long as you ask, I will do what I can and it doesn't violate principles and disciplines."

Xiang Xin said this very honestly, and it was obvious that he meant it sincerely.

Lin Mo said he worked in the Security Bureau.

"Security Bureau? Which Security Bureau?" Xiang Xin stopped picking up food with his chopsticks, looked up and asked.

Lin Mo said there was another security bureau, and it was that security bureau.

As he said this, he showed the ID to the other party.

Xiang Xin took it and looked at it left and right, then slapped his chopsticks and poured himself a glass of white wine.

"Lin Mo, brother, let me toast you. I'll drink it. You can do whatever you want."

Then he tilted his head back and drank it all.

"I drank the wine, so I'm determined to hold on to you, brother. Don't look down on me...hiss, hiss, you're awesome, team leader of the Security Bureau. Even our director has to stand at attention and salute in front of you. You're so awesome."

Xiang Xin's envy and jealousy are also real.

No affectation or concealment.

The kind of person who says whatever he thinks, without hiding anything.

This guy was like this when he was in school, and he hasn't changed after all these years.

This made Lin Mo feel like he was going back in time.

"By the way, how are you and Liu Jia doing? Are you married?" Xiang Xin asked immediately.

Lin Mo smiled and said nothing.

Lin Mo had already figured out the matter about Liu Jia. There was indeed such a person, and she was indeed his female classmate in high school. Moreover, his relationship with Liu Jia was well known to everyone.

But unfortunately, everyone remembers her except me.

Lin Mo will have to figure this out sooner or later.

Lin Mo didn't want to talk about Liu Jia anymore.

He changed the subject and asked Xiang Xin how his work was going recently and whether he was satisfied or not.

Xiang Xin said, "What's the point of being happy? It's so frustrating."

"Now, our entire system is divided into two parts. One part handles normal cases, and the other part handles strange events, that is, those related to nightmares. I was assigned to the second group. I live in fear every day, fearing that my wife will become a widow one day."

Lin Mo was amused when he heard that, and said, "Not really, not really."

"Of course not. The case I recently took over was too bizarre and strange. By the way, Lin Mo, you are now a big shot in the Security Bureau. It's just right. Let me talk to you and see if you can help my brother."

He started talking right away.

It's impossible to stop it.

But Lin Mo didn't stop him.

He knew very well that a case that was extremely dangerous for ordinary people might be just a piece of cake for him.

easy.

In that case, there's nothing wrong with helping out.

Old classmates!

The case that Xiang Xin talked about was a local matter in Luoyan City. The specific situation was that a couple seemed to be infected with nightmares.

But there was something different about their nightmares.

"First, the woman said that she dreams every day of being in the same place, a passage, with something chasing her from behind. She runs to a door in front, goes in, and wakes up. But the next time she goes to sleep, she finds herself in the passage again, and the thing behind her continues to chase her."

"Oh, right. She said she could see numbers on the doors, and the numbers were decreasing in sequence. She said the thing behind her was about to catch up with her. Even if it couldn't catch up, when she ran to the last door marked with number 0, there might be no way for her to escape."

Hearing this, Lin Mo frowned.

He had heard of this dream before.

My dad once said that I had the same dream five years ago. I told my dad about it at that time.

Of course, Lin Mo has forgotten it now.

But the details of the dream described by Dad were almost exactly the same as what Xiang Xin described at this moment.

My dad said that not long after he had this dream, he suddenly called him one night. When my dad rushed over, he found that he and Liu Jia were dead.

The person had been dead for more than a day, but the call was made more than ten minutes ago.

Very weird.

Because it was weird and related to himself, Lin Mo remembered it very clearly.

Hearing Xiang Xin say this again, he immediately made the connection.

This may be a key to unlock the secrets of the past.

Lin Mo took it to heart.

"And then?" he asked.

Xiang Xin said: "Then, the girl died."

"Didn't you investigate?"

"Of course not. Our branch also has roles similar to the Security Bureau experts who can investigate cases by entering dreams. But they couldn't find the place where the girl entered her dream, even if they used some technical means."

Lin Mo understood that there must be some special force that pulled the girl into a special scene.

In short, no one else can enter this place.

"Aren't they a couple? Does the man have a similar situation?" Lin Mo asked.

Xiang Xin said yes.

"The man actually had the same dream as his girlfriend, but the man ran faster. The woman was caught up when she was at Gate 6, but the man has now run to Gate 2. However, according to him, if he ran to Gate 1, there might be no way ahead, and at that time, he would definitely be caught up by the weirdness behind him."

The consequence of catching up would be the same as the girl's, death.

"What about that man? Is he still alive?" Lin Mo became interested.

This couple may have experienced the same thing as Liu Jia and I five years ago. In this case, Lin Mo must find out.

So he hoped that the man was not dead.

If he dies, the clues may be gone.

"He's still alive, but his mental state is not optimistic. He has collapsed. He's being protected by the police station, but I don't think he's going to survive. I've seen a lot of weird things like this, and there's nothing we can do about them. It's said that when the nightmare era comes, there will be more of these things. Alas, there's nothing we can do."

Xiang Xin sighed.

He was worried about himself and his family.

After all, when encountering such strange things, normal force can no longer withstand the damage.

No matter how strong a person is, even if he has a hundred people protecting him, if something strange kills him, he will still die.

Such are the characteristics of nightmare times.

"We have no other options now. I think the man can no longer hold on. He will die tonight or tomorrow. Once he dies, this case will become an unsolved mystery."

"Take me to see him." Lin Mo became more alert.

He wanted to know the details.

Of course Xiang Xin was happy to hear this. He said this because he wanted Lin Mo's help.

After all, he is the person in charge of this case. If he can solve it, it will definitely help with his future promotion.

"Let's go now." Xiang Xin didn't even eat. He paid the bill with the boss and pulled Lin Mo into his car.

"You've been drinking, let me open the door." Lin Mo patted Xiang Xin.

In just ten minutes, the car arrived at the police station where Xiang Xin was.

Luoyan City Xicheng Branch.

A few minutes later, Lin Mo saw the man in the couple.

The other party's mental state is very bad.

His face was thin, his eye sockets were sunken, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Even when this person was sitting, his hands and feet were shaking unconsciously, which was a reaction caused by being nervous to a certain degree.

And he was mumbling something under his breath.

Lin Mo couldn't hear clearly, so he asked a policeman next to him.

"What is he mumbling about?"

The policeman didn't know who Lin Mo was, but when he saw that Xiang Xin had brought him in, he also cooperated and said, "He's going crazy now. He keeps saying, 'He's going to catch me, he's going to catch me.'"

Lin Mo said "oh" and then tried to talk to the other party.

But the man's eyes were dull, as if he couldn't see Lin Mo.

No response to the outside world.

Xiang Xin was right. If this guy enters the dream again, he will definitely die.

Lin Mo walked over, suddenly reached out and grabbed the other person's shoulder, then said: "Got you!"
