The Great Dream God

The narrow and shabby room, the humid air, and the flickering kerosene lamp in the glass cover added a sense of eeriness to this secluded place.

In this gloomy room, the figures of three people are looming.

"People can never predict how abominable they will be when they commit evil! Do you want to see yourself from a third-person perspective, the hideous face you show when you slaughter innocent people? I tell you, that is fanaticism, like the frenzy of wild dogs tearing flesh and blood!" Meng Jin watched coldly, staring at Luo Yuan kneeling in front of him, looking at his panic-stricken expression, and looking up to the front. The man standing in front and Luo Yuan kneeling on the ground are exactly the same, just like the reflection in the mirror!

Luo Tianshi held a sharp blade in his hand, and approached the front step by step, releasing a stray dog ​​with a broken leg from a cage. Although the dog was staggering, it showed great intimacy to Luo Tianshi, rubbing his legs and feet with its head, showing great intimacy.

However, Master Luo Tianshi did not hesitate and swung his knife down. The stray dog ​​let out a shrill scream and blood splattered all over his face.

Luo Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, witnessed what he had done and said tremblingly: "I...how could I do such a thing!"

Meng Jin sneered, "On weekdays, you regard yourself as a kind Taoist priest, giving useless talisman water to believers, but you are actually a born villain! When believers look forward to you with eager eyes, you shamelessly give them ineffective things, which may even cause diseases. Look at what you do in secret! All the stray cats and dogs in this town have become food in your stomach, right? If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes today, I really couldn't imagine that you are such a perverted person! You seem to enjoy the process of killing these cats and dogs with your own hands, and you are even more excited than cooking them and eating them. Perhaps, you cook them just to deceive yourself, telling yourself that killing is to fill your stomach, not to enjoy the pleasure of killing. Am I right? Master Luo! Taoist Luo! Luo Yuan!"

Luo Yuan knelt on the ground, screaming heartbreakingly, and watched another version of himself raise a butcher knife and slaughter the stray animals in the cages with his own hands. He felt extremely ashamed and didn't want others to see his true face. He only wanted others to see him as a kind person.

Meng Jin showed a look of joy, stretched out his ring-wearing hand, and snapped his fingers lightly!

A white light flashed, and Luo Yuan woke up from his dream, sweating profusely, clutching the quilt tightly, gasping for breath, and found himself lying in his bedroom.

Luo Yuan said to himself in confusion: "A nightmare? This... is just a nightmare?"

……

The sun was shining over Xiaoyangshu Town in the central part of Tiannan. A man in black wrapped himself tightly and sneaked into an alley. There was already someone waiting in the alley. The man was wearing a Taoist robe and had a fat body, but because the robe was loose, he didn't look so bloated. He shaved his eyebrows and beard, which made him look quite strange. He was a strange Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest asked anxiously: "Did you bring the dirty laundry on Luo Yuan? I paid the deposit!"

The man in black took out a piece of jade from his bosom and handed it to the Taoist priest. The jade was called Shadow Jade, which could record images. The light emitted by the jade was reflected on the wall, and the image could be played. The Taoist priest injected spiritual energy into the jade, and the light was reflected on the wall, and the image was played like a video.

In the video, Luo Yuan was holding a butcher knife, madly hacking at stray animals in cages, his face covered in blood, and he looked crazy. Behind him, Luo Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, cried desperately and shouted loudly: "I don't want to do this, but this behavior is really addictive! I can't help but want to take those cute little animals home! I raised them and tried to control the desire in my heart, but in the end, I couldn't control it and killed them. For each animal, I controlled myself for at least ten days before I had the idea of ​​killing them! After ten days, I killed them. I should be a kind person! Don't think I'm not a kind person!"

Seeing this, the fat Taoist took back the Shadow Jade and laughed excitedly: "Luo Yuan, relying on his identity as a cultivator from the True Dragon Taoist Temple in Ziyang City, has robbed many of my followers! I have known for a long time that he is a hypocrite, and now I finally found evidence! Good, good, good! Boy, if you expose the true face of this hypocrite and let everyone stay away from him, it will have a good impact on the entire town!"

The man in black nodded silently and held out his hand: "Give me the money, Taoist priest."

The fat man's face changed and he narrowed his eyes: "Didn't I give you money?"

The man in black smiled and said, "That's just a deposit."

The fat man refused to give more money: "I've already given you money and you're asking me to give you more. You're robbing me! Get out of here! What you did is not a good thing. It's pure sin! Don't pry into other people's privacy anymore!"

The man in black smiled, watched the fat man leave, and suddenly said: "Twenty years ago, when you were twelve years old, you stole the underwear of the fat aunt next door. I don't need to tell you what you did! I can find Luo Yuan's privacy, so why can't I find yours? Do you believe that I have the shadow jade of you taking the fat aunt's treasure and doing such ugly things to it?"

The fat man was stunned, turned his head to look at the man in black, his expression became distorted and he shouted loudly: "Give me that jade! You bastard, you actually attacked me!" The fat man rushed forward in rage.

However, the next second, the fat man suddenly woke up from his dream with cold sweat on his forehead.

The fat man scratched his head in confusion. Could it be that I, the Taoist priest, was dreaming?

At this moment, he was surprised to find that he was holding... a shadow jade!

After checking and confirming that the jade was real, the fat man waited anxiously until the next day, and came to the alley again. With a dejected look on his face, he stuffed a silver ingot into the black-clothed man's pocket, turned around and left, saying as if to shoo away a fly: "Go away, go away, street dogs like you just want this kind of thing! Here you go, don't show up in my life again in the future. Dealing with people like you really makes me feel sorry for the old man Wuliang Tianzun. It's a sin! A sin!"

The man in black held the silver ingot tightly and walked away with firm steps. He trudged to a quiet hill, and the fat man followed closely behind him, panting into the hill. The fat man, a plump Taoist priest, was furious and said indignantly: "I must find out who this sorcerer is. How dare he cheat me of my money? Do you think he can get away so easily?"

Before he finished speaking, the fat man's shoulder was patted by a sudden hand. He turned around suddenly and saw that the man in black was standing in front of him. He took off his bamboo hat and revealed a handsome face. He had black hair and a pair of bright eyes. Although he was not handsome, he exuded a fresh and refined temperament. This person was Meng Jin. Meng Jin smiled and said to the fat man, "Aren't you always curious about my true face? No need to hide, I will let you see it now." As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Jin threw a punch and hit the fat man in the face, making him black-faced and swollen.

The fat man woke up from his dream again, with cold sweat on his forehead. He was confused, was this a dream within a dream, or was there something else going on? The fat man did not dare to neglect it, and quickly put on his clothes. This time his attitude was completely different from the last time. He hurried to the alley and waited for a whole night. The next day, he finally waited for the man in black to come. The fat man had dark circles under his eyes, and after handing the gold ingot to the man in black, he turned around and left without hesitation. Seeing this, the man in black smiled and nodded, but at the moment when the fat man turned around, he snapped his fingers.

The next moment, the fat man found himself back on the bed. The fat Taoist priest was completely dumbfounded. He felt confused. Could this be the legendary ghost wall? He ran to the street in a daze, howling angrily: "Let me go quickly, is it worth it for a silver ingot? Is it worth torturing me like this?"

The fat man looked up at the sky and saw that the bright moon gradually turned into the face of a man in black. The face covered by the black cloth seemed to be mocking him.

The next second, the fat Taoist priest woke up from his bed again, and this time he felt a little numb. He waited in the alley in a daze, and the next morning, the man in black arrived as promised. The fat Taoist priest took out three silver ingots from his arms and handed them to the man in black with trembling voice: "Brother, stop torturing me and let me out!"

The man in black smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to take off his mask, the fat man quickly covered his eyes and shouted, "I didn't see anything, I didn't see anything!"

The man in black ordered: "Take your hands away and take a good look at me!" The fat man hesitated for a long time, but finally took his hands away. He was shocked to see that the man in black was actually Luo Yuan.

Then, he woke up from his dream and came to the alley again. This time, the man in black took off his mask, and the fat man saw his first love, Aunt Fatty, the one he had never dared to mention to anyone.

Time and again, the fat man woke up from his dream and fell asleep again. He rushed back and forth between the alley and the bed, as if he had experienced countless reincarnations. He saw countless familiar figures, the residents of the town on weekdays, and they all made him feel a little numb.

Finally, when he woke up this time, the fat man came to the alley again and handed the three silver ingots to the man in black. He waited to wake up again, but found that the man in black turned and left. The fat man waited for a long time in the same place, and finally found that he was back to reality and finally woke up!

The fat man knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes. This story tells us that the balance must be paid in full, otherwise you will be the only one who suffers.

The man in black was sitting in the private room of the inn. Taoist Luo Yuan pushed open the door and looked at the man in black in panic. He learned that his mortal enemy, the fat Taoist priest, had recently obtained his fatal black material, the shadow jade that recorded his cruel killing of small animals.

The man in black took out a shadow jade from his arms and handed it to Taoist Luo Yuan: "This is the fat guy's dirty laundry, even more vicious than you. Just look at it, it makes me sick."

Taoist Luo Yuan played Shadow Jade, then laughed loudly, took out a silver ingot with excitement, and handed it to the man in black: "Master, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, the fat man would have controlled me."

The man in black smiled and nodded, saying, "Everyone has some shameful secrets. As long as you don't really commit evil, and you really like killing people, and you feel uncomfortable if you don't kill people for a day, it's acceptable to have some small habits behind people's backs."

After saying this, he took the silver ingot and turned away, returning to his home. He was not worried about being followed, because those who dared to follow him were eventually subdued by him.

He has the power to control dreams. Meng Jin took off his black clothes and put on his original clothes. Looking at the four gold ingots he received today, he smiled like an old farmer when he had a good harvest.

He looked at the ring in his hand, which was a magical ring that could enter other people's dreams and control their dreams. He couldn't help but sigh that he came to this strange world called Zijintian not to be a paparazzi, nor to steal other people's memories, nor to publish those shameful memories in exchange for money.

He was supposed to be the ideological mentor of this ignorant and backward alien world, but he suddenly did such an immoral thing. This guy who sells other people's dreams and privacy is actually a time traveler from the 21st century.

His way of traveling through time was simple and unexpected, that is, he was hit and killed by a dump truck. In short, he came to this world, and selling other people's dreams was just a private hobby, or a part-time job. His real job was a postman at the Xiaoyangshu Town Post Station.

Meng Jin thought about his life and felt a little hopeless. He sighed and began to prepare for tomorrow's task. Leather coat, felt hat, whip, saber, everything was ready. Today, he just wanted to have a good sleep and end this busy night.
