Chapter 19 Parallel Time and Space 1 Dream
The night is quiet, just like any other dream.
In his dream, Cheng Yu returned to his childhood, when he was five years old. Before that, he had also experienced a brief period of happiness.
No matter how smart a child is, he or she is only this young, so naturally he or she is dependent on his or her parents.
That year, my father was transferred out to gain experience. It would take him three years to return to the Imperial City for further improvement.
His mother took him with her.
That place is very barbaric, and they believe that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. There is a lot of darkness and strong evil forces.
If my father wants to achieve something, he has to work very hard. He is a very resourceful man and a natural conspirator.
The three years of management were very effective. After breaking through the darkness, the development was thriving, and it was time for them to go back.
That day, his mother took him out, but unexpectedly they ran into the remaining enemies. With resentment, she captured them.
The five days when his father brought people to find them were a nightmare that Cheng Yu did not want to recall. It was also the beginning of his inner collapse and the planting of a dark seed.
In fact, the most effective way to take revenge on an adult is to vent your resentment on your child. As long as the parents love the child, it will be most effective.
During those five days, Cheng Yu was beaten every day. There was not a piece of good meat on his body. He had to compete with vicious dogs for food and was thrown into the pigpen to be played with. The pigs were so hungry that they were skin and bones and would eat people.
In order to let him survive, his mother was willing to crawl on the ground and endure inhuman humiliation. Right in front of him, Cheng Yu watched her gasp for life and die.
He didn't even shed tears, he just watched quietly.
When it was his turn next, his father came with his men.
"Father, send them abroad." Five-year-old Cheng Yu was very calm, so calm that he didn't seem like a child of his age.
"good"
Later, Cheng Yu went out to travel to relax.
That was also the first time he held something cold, and the first time he saw something warm and full of red.
Cheng Yu didn't like reading. That was the first time he took out the book "Ten Dynasties of Torture in Ancient Times" from the bookshelf and took it out.
He has always believed that practice makes perfect.
Cheng Yu smiled happily as he watched them crying and begging for mercy. His innocent face made people feel creepy.
How fun, he thought.
One year, two years, three years... Cheng Yu has done a lot of crazy things, not limited to those extreme sports that seem to be suicidal.
Until he grew up, he was ordered back by his father and grandfather because he acted too crazy abroad. He went back to Emperor's College to study and become a satisfactory heir in the future.
Cheng Yu didn't come back because he was afraid of their obedience, but because he was bored. Yes, very bored. The "free life" that most people spend their entire lives pursuing was meaningless in his eyes.
Life is too empty.
Material things can never satisfy spiritual needs. When the spirit dies, all we have left is a mere corpse walking.
He knew very well that he was venting his inner frustration, but it was useless and only made him more annoyed.
Life in Dis was also very boring. However, Cheng Yu soon discovered something that was not interesting, but strange.
There was a special student who was invited to study because he saved a retired chairman of the board of directors.
As he was driving into the school, the special admissions student's bicycle bumped into him and hit the front of his car.
Dis's lanes were very wide and separate, so there was no way he could crash into me, yet he just rushed towards me.
There were so many cars, but he was the only one that got hit. What a coincidence.
It was a very strange scene. Cheng Yu narrowed his eyes and began to think deeply about what this person's purpose was.
"What's wrong with being rich? Is it so great to have a few bucks?"
When Cheng Yu heard this, his stupidity kicked in, and saying one more word would be an insult to his brain.
Two people who shouldn't have any intersection often meet each other by coincidence, as if an invisible thread is tying them together, which makes Cheng Yu very annoyed.
He sent people to check the background of the special recruits, and found nothing special. However, it was not known whether there was a possibility that they would use metaphysics. Family background and personal adventures were not related.
But what Cheng Yu hated most was that someone wanted to control him. It was no different from having someone press his head and act like a puppet. It was a great shame and humiliation.
Cheng Yu immediately arranged for an expert to "invite" the specially recruited students back so that the expert could see the reason.
After the expert's manipulation, he was also quite shocked, "This red thread of marriage is really weird."
Cheng Yu didn't have the patience to listen to how weird it was, so he just said, "Cut it off."
The master advised, "Young Master, although this red thread is strange, it can bring you marriage. If you cut it, you will really have no marriage destiny and will be alone."
The higher the status, the deeper the contact. Even those with real abilities and hidden masters are naturally under their control.
Cheng Yu didn't doubt his words, but still said without hesitation, "Cut. I don't need this kind of marriage."
He was just a lonely man, and he always believed that this was his fate.
Since Cheng Yu gave the order, the expert began to make arrangements.
The strange red string broke, and Cheng Yu felt relaxed. There was no longer any invisible hand trying to restrain him, just like the strings on a puppet.
"Wait." The expert looked carefully and said with a little surprise, "Master, I also found a red line, but it's too weak. Whether it will become the right fate depends on fate."
Cheng Yu didn't care about what he said.
After the incident was over, his life returned to normal without him having to leave the house for the "arranged" encounter.
Cheng Yu is very busy. As the heir, he has too many things to do and appears in school less and less frequently.
He had also long forgotten what the master had said about the other red line.
And it was at this time that his dreams became different.
Unlike usual, Cheng Yu did dream about the past. As the number of times happened increased, the nightmare became a numb existence. He looked at the dark side of the past over and over again.
But this time in the dream, besides him walking aimlessly, there was actually a second person's voice.
Someone was calling him. Cheng Yu turned around and saw a person whose face he couldn't see clearly walking towards him and holding his hand.
He seemed to be lying down, and then he was embraced in an embrace. Her body was small, but she was able to hold him in her arms.
"Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu?"
"Cheng Yu, what's wrong with you? Did you have a nightmare? You're an adult, come and lie down. I'm here, don't be afraid."
She was very gentle and doting. In his dream, Cheng Yu was nestled in his arms, and she gently patted his back to lull him to sleep.
It was as if she was coaxing him.
Cheng Yu was somewhat immersed in the world of dreams. He was rarely reluctant to wake up, but he still woke up after dawn.
He felt lost and empty inside. He subconsciously touched his side, but only he felt cold, not anyone else.
This dream was intermittent, and Cheng Yu had to go to bed on time every night and enter the dream as if he was addicted.
He is a voyeur, hiding in the corner and watching himself in his dream having a happy life with others.
Whenever she called "Cheng Yu", he thought she was calling him, but after waking up, he felt even more empty.
This dream lasted for several years and had become Cheng Yu's magic weapon for falling asleep on time every night without suffering from insomnia.
He thought to himself with self-mockery that perhaps this was also a different way of taking care of him.
Things took a turn for the better when he was 28 years old.
