Chapter 117: Knocking on the window


【Barley: I have been having a very strange dream every night these days ...】
The dark night enveloped Dongzhou City. In this prosperous city, the ordinary people were busy.
After working for one day, Chen Wenwei returned to the apartment unit that he shared with a small room of five square meters.
He is the kind of ordinary person who throws people into the sea and there is nothing special. He graduated from Dongzhou University and majored in accounting. After graduating from college, he found a job in a private enterprise. His salary was not high, but he became busy every day.
The girlfriend I talked about in college broke up shortly after graduating two years ago. Now I take the initiative to chat with a girl in the unit from time to time.
Chen Wenwei knew that his appearance was mediocre, he had no money, and he didn't know how to coax the girl to be happy. This is normal.
This room is very small, and you can't put anything else with a bed and desk, but fortunately the rent is not expensive, and it is 25 stories high, with a bay window.
Come back from work every day, Chen Wenwei will sit on the window sill, play with the mobile phone, look at the brightly lit city night scene outside, relieve the pressure of the day.
At this time, he sat on the window sill and chatted with his friends on WeChat. The other party was his college classmate, old man, who also works in Dongzhou. They usually talk a few words.
Chen Wenwei read this message and pressed the phone to reply casually.
[Wen Wei: What dream? 】
He finished replying to other people's information, so he went to get himself instant noodles. I did n’t know how long ago I went out to dinner last time. It is not easy to live in a big city alone, everything is expensive. He only earned more than 6,000 yuan a month, and after removing the rent, water, electricity, and living expenses, there were only two or three thousand left.
This is still a very frugal life, so it will take another ten years to save enough down payment for small towns and small apartments.
Chen Wenwei has already made plans to resign and return to his hometown in the town. The consumption level here is too high.
Actually, he should go back to his hometown when he graduated, but he did n’t stay in this big city for a few years.
Soaked instant noodles in the unit ’s public kitchen. Chen Wenwei returned to the room and ate on the window sill while looking at the mobile phone. Barley had sent a lot of information.
[Barley: I dreamed of a strange island with strange sounds. I walked forward. It felt weird, like a little sober but confused. When I walked, I saw a room in front. There was a very strange old man outside the big house, and then I woke up.
Barley: After the first time I had this dream a few days ago, I had this dream every night, and every time I woke up, it was three o'clock in the middle of the night ...
Barley: I have n’t watched a horror movie recently. I just saw a post on the Internet and said that I did this strange dream, and I felt infected.
Barley: By the way, after waking up, I still heard the sound of someone knocking outside the window, really evil door]
Chen Wenwei took a bite of noodles and sent "We'll just bluff" to WeChat before sending it, but suddenly he felt a little weird in his heart. Barley is not a person who likes to make such jokes ... He deleted this sentence and re-entered a sentence : "Really? You have been under a lot of pressure recently, and got angry."
The phone shook, and WeChat has new information:
【Barley: Really, alas, these days I have lost a lot of energy. I guess I have to go to the hospital to order some sleeping pills. 】
If this matter is serious, Chen Wenwei has no idea, enter: "I heard that stress is a nightmare, you go to the hospital to see it."
【Barley: I was a little scared if it was a disease. My head was sore these two days. I didn't drink enough water. 】
"It feels like stress, it's okay, don't scare yourself." Chen Wenwei replied again.
After eating instant noodles, he found a few clothes and went to take a shower. There was no such thing as being too nervous. Mai Lei must be stressed and nervous. The more he sleeps, the more nervous he becomes. But after all, who is not under much pressure now?
After taking a bath, Chen Wenwei lay on the bed and played with his mobile phone, chatting with his family for a while, and his mother sent me some photos of a rapeseed crop grown at home.
After he watched some videos again, the time passed in a blink of an eye, and it was more than eleven o'clock in the evening.
Chen Wenwei got up and went to the public restroom to brush his teeth. When he came back, he lay down and went to bed.
After working for a day, he was physically and mentally exhausted, and he didn't close his eyes for a long time before he dimly entered the dream.
Silence, nothingness, floating around, light and shadow tumbling.
Hazy, Chen Wenwei felt like he was in a strange place.
Seawater, surrounded by endless seawater, deserted land, messy weeds, twisted gloomy trees, there seems to be a mountain in the distance.
He didn't see clearly. All the scenes were covered with a layer of gray like black-and-white photos, and there was a strange and low sound that seemed to be calling him ...
There is an indescribable odor in the air, and the soil underneath is very heavy. Chen Wenwei walked forward, as if he saw a building in front of him, is it an old and ruined house? Figure standing there ...
Chen Wenwei walked step by step, as if his footsteps no longer belonged to him, and gradually floated, his body strength dispersed like smoke.
The call was getting closer and closer, and Chen Wenwei saw that the figure was looking out, an old man's face, withered like bark, like cracked soil ...
But he couldn't see the old man's eyes, it seemed to be an inexplicable chaos.
"74 ..." The old man slowly said a number to him.
Suddenly, Chen Wenwei woke up suddenly, his muscles were twitching, and he had not opened his eyes ~ EbookFREE.me ~ It was dark in front of him.
But he has realized that it was a dream, just a dream ...
It ’s just this dream, is n’t it the desert dream that Mai Lei said every night?
This thought made Chen Wenwei a bit creepy, and felt even more dry, as uncomfortable as a few days of lack of water.
Why is this ... Chen Wenwei opened his eyes in surprise, and saw the alarm clock on the desk beside the bed show: 3:02
He was suddenly at a loss, and it was three in the middle of the night? I just fell asleep, why is it three o'clock in the middle of the night?
He remembered that Mai Lei said that every time he woke up from a nightmare, it was three o'clock ......
Chen Weiwen frowned and looked around. There was nothing but silence in the forced room. In the dark, everything he knew was overshadowed.
He looked again at the window with the curtains less than two meters away. The window was closed and no wind could blow in.
But I do n’t know why, Chen Wenwei seems to see the curtains shaking slightly, and there seems to be something outside the window ...
His heart was already pulled up, looking at the window that was almost against him, unconsciously holding his breath and daring not to move.
Da Da, Da Da.
The sound of knocking on the window suddenly sounded faintly. This is the twenty-fifth floor, and there is no balcony or other standing place outside the window.
"..." Chen Wenwei's heart twitched abruptly, and his body was tingling, as if he had fallen into an ice lake, and he was unable to breathe.
What's going on here? How can I do this ... is this still in another nightmare?
Mai Lei said that he had done that strange dream every night after the first time ...
Will he ... the same?
