Huang, these people just can't be woken up.
The other people in the classroom also noticed something was wrong. Even if it was a nightmare, it shouldn't be impossible to wake him up, right? This situation was truly bizarre and terrifying.
Lin Tan Tan frowned, went over and pulled Ye Xiao: "Get out of the way." As he spoke, a bucket of water appeared out of thin air in his hand and poured over.
Everyone was splashed in the face and woke up in shock, gasping for breath as if they had escaped from the gates of hell. Everyone had a terrified expression and was even shaking. A younger girl even screamed when she woke up.
"Xiaolu, Dayuan, what's wrong with you?" The only person who didn't have a nightmare asked his companions worriedly.
The short-haired, long-faced woman named Xiaolu was speechless for a long time. She had a nightmare. She dreamed of the thing she feared most, the scene she least wanted to recall. She relived that feeling and became completely weak, covering her face in pain.
The man who didn't have a nightmare looked confused and worried.
The youngest girl suddenly started crying: "I had a nightmare. I dreamed that a ghost was chasing me. I am most afraid of ghosts!"
The man who didn't have a nightmare laughed: "Where are ghosts in this world?"
"But I'm just scared! I dreamed that I was in a big house, and it was empty everywhere. Something was squirming in the shadows, and a shadow flashed in the mirror. I wanted to run away, but I couldn't control myself at all. I almost opened a door, and there must be something behind that door. There was even hair sticking out from under the door! I was almost scared to death! Woo woo..."
The girl was almost emotionally broken, covering her face in pain, which showed how terrified and desperate she was in the dream.
Looking at the others, they all had the same expression. The man with the crew cut named Da Yuan swallowed and said in a hoarse voice, "I had a nightmare too. I didn't dream of ghosts, I just dreamed that I was being chased. I was kidnapped when I was a child and the kidnapper chased me with a knife. The scene in my dream was exactly the same... That's what I fear the most. I almost went crazy in the dream. What's going on? Why would I have that kind of dream for no reason!"
The remaining two people also said that they had nightmares, but they refused to talk about the content of the dreams. That was definitely a corner they didn't want to touch. Finally, the woman with short hair and a long face nodded weakly, indicating that she also had a nightmare.
Everyone else looked at each other in bewilderment. What kind of nightmare could be so exaggerated that it made each of them feel like they had died? However, their behavior did not seem fake. Moreover, the five of them actually had a nightmare at the same time, and they all had the same extreme reaction. It was really strange.
The man who didn’t have a nightmare scratched his head: “Strange, why do you all suddenly have nightmares? I’ve been with you the whole time, so why didn’t I have any dreams?” Didn’t he fall behind the main group?
A deep, cold voice suddenly said, "Because they have all made eye contact with that zombie, but you haven't."
Everyone was stunned. The man who didn't have a nightmare and the five men and women who had nightmares also suddenly looked up at Ye Xiao who was speaking.
Ye Xiao was holding a flashlight in his hand, but the light made him fall into the shadows, making it difficult to see his expression. People only subconsciously felt a little scared and did not dare to get close.
"How could this be?" Dayuan, with a crew cut, suddenly said, "We just glanced at each other from a distance!"
"Didn't you also say that the zombie was weird?" Ye Xiao said.
Several people were suddenly speechless.
The short-haired, long-faced woman asked in a hoarse voice, "Is this a supernatural power? Does this effect only happen once, or will I have nightmares all the time?"
The other four people shuddered together. If they kept having nightmares, they might as well die!
Ye Xiao pursed his lips: "I don't know."
He suddenly glanced at Lin Tantan. The short-haired, long-faced woman seemed to remember something and looked at Lin Tantan for help. "Didn't you say you also made eye contact with that zombie? Did you have a nightmare? Is it okay if it only happened once?"
Lin Tantan swallowed and felt a little dazed.
So the zombie had such a miraculous ability? So her nightmare wasn't just a result of her being too sensitive or timid?
Not noticing that everyone's eyes were on her, she raised her hand and scratched her hair: "Yes, I have nightmares too."
Ye Xiao's expression changed immediately. The woman looked at him for help, hoping that the next answer she would give would be what he wanted to hear. Unfortunately, Lin Tan could only tell the truth: "And I've had this dream more than once. I guess it happens every time I sleep."
As soon as she said this, the woman's face suddenly turned pale, and the other four people also looked as if the sky was falling. Ye Xiao grabbed Lin Tantan's hand.
Ye Xiao, who had not had a nightmare, had an expression as if he was facing a powerful enemy, almost the same as those five people.
Lin Tantan quickly said: "But my condition is not that serious. I can basically wake up as soon as I have a dream." She wanted to comfort Ye Xiao and also give these five people hope. They were all hit by the same trick and had the same symptoms. They suddenly became fellow patients. Lin Tantan could understand their feelings very well and quickly told them her medical history.
"I have been staring at that zombie for several days now, right? I had a nightmare that day and was scared to tears, but I woke up immediately, Ye Xiao, right?" They were lying together in the mound at that time, and it was Ye Xiao who woke her up. She remembered it clearly. She was looking for Ye Xiao in the dark river in her dream and was about to despair. Suddenly she heard his voice calling her, and she woke up all of a sudden, and then quickly got out of the emotions of the dream.
Ye Xiao's face was dark blue. It turned out that she had a nightmare because she was hit by a ghost. He thought she was just scared!
Thinking about the frightened reactions of these five people, he felt angry and distressed, and nodded stiffly.
"Then the next day, I had another nightmare not long after falling asleep, but I woke up quickly, and then I was a little afraid to sleep. Then came the third day... Oh, was it the third day? Anyway, I stayed up late on purpose and fell asleep just before dawn. I slept for an hour and had another nightmare. But this time, I knew I was dreaming as soon as I started, so I forced myself to wake up, and I woke up quickly... Later, I made myself very tired and slept soundly for half the night, and then I had another nightmare. This time, I woke up as soon as I fell asleep. It's been like this for the past few days."
Lin Tan Tan shared his experience overcoming nightmares with five fellow patients: "Anyway, just don't go to sleep until you're extremely tired and sleepy. When you're dreaming, remind yourself you're dreaming and wake yourself up... If you can't do that, have someone watch over you and splash water on you if they notice you're dreaming... Think about happy things and stay in a good mood. That's it."
The five people listened obediently. After hearing her downplay it so lightly, it seemed that the nightmare was not so scary anymore. But when they recalled their dreams, they still felt as if their necks were being gripped by a scary hand. Their hearts shrank into a ball, and they felt scared and painful. Even their breathing was filled with fear.
After she finished speaking, the girl, who was no more than in her early twenties, asked cautiously, "Does that mean you still have nightmares?"
Lin Tan Tan glanced at Ye Xiao and saw that he was about to explode. He scratched his head and said, "Yes, but since I can wake up every time I dream, it doesn't affect me much. It's just that I can't sleep for a long time, which is a bit tiring. But as a superpower, I can handle less sleep."
The five of them were all psychics and agreed with this, but they were still afraid. They looked at each other, unsure if they could wake up as quickly as Lin Tan Tan when they dreamed again, so they decided not to sleep and wait until they could fall asleep as soon as they closed their eyes.
After Lin Tan Tan finished sharing his experience, he and Ye Xiao returned to their original seats and quietly checked his expression: "You're angry, I didn't mean to hide it. I didn't know it was because of this. I thought it was just a normal sleep disturbance."
Ye Xiao took a deep breath. He knew of course that she was not to blame for this. He was just angry at himself for not knowing her situation at all. Even if he didn't know it was because of the zombies, he should have known that she couldn't sleep well every day. He should have taken it to heart when she said she didn't want to go to bed!
He hugged her and said, "I have neglected you. Please tell me if you have any problems in the future. Even if you just feel that you have trouble sleeping, you can tell me. At least I can accompany you and help you find the reason and find a way to fall asleep."
Lin Tantan felt warm inside: "Yeah." She whispered: "I really didn't think it was a big deal before."
Ye Xiao asked: "Aren't you afraid of having nightmares?"
"I was a little scared in the dream, but I wasn't scared anymore when I woke up." When she woke up, she knew that Ye Xiao was still fine. She pulled him out of the river, and she felt healed immediately, and her mood improved.
Ye Xiao smiled and said, "It's great to talk about it. What kind of nightmare did you have? If you don't mind, tell me and we'll see if there's any way to solve it."
Lin Tantan's lips, which had just curled up, froze slightly: "Uh..."
The nightmare was about not being able to find you in the water? Lin Tantan suddenly felt a little ashamed, and she couldn't bring herself to say it.
