Chapter 395: Fear in the Dream
Chapter 395: Fear in the Dream
The white ceiling exudes a familiar smell.
The crisp chirping of birds came from the window, the sound of people on the streets, and the sound of vehicles driving one after another.
"Classmate Li Yang, please answer this question."
"In the development of ancient Greek democracy, what events laid the foundation for the democratic system in Athens?"
On the podium, the teacher's pointer knocked on the blackboard.
A pair of sharp eyes stared straight at Li Yang.
The classmate next to me secretly opened the textbook to the page of knowledge points, pointed at the content on it, and whispered a reminder.
Li Yang stood up stupidly and gave the answer: "At the beginning of the sixth century BC...Solon's reforms..."
The teacher on the podium nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, sit down, don't be distracted during class time."
"Students, everyone knows..."
The hustle and bustle of the classroom, the familiar noise.
Everything was like throwing Li Yang back into his dream.
Li Yang confirmed that his system was still in place, with authority and capability.
So, now I am even more confused.
Didn't it mean that this dream would make him see what he feared most?
How could this... directly start taking him back to history?
"Dong dong dong——"
Just as he was wondering, the classroom door was suddenly knocked open by someone.
A familiar figure was standing outside the door, waving gently towards Li Yang:
"Hi~"
Li Yang's eyes widened and he blurted out:
"Artemis!?"
"No, you..."
"Why are you here!?"
The visitor was none other than Artemis, who was wearing a school uniform.
With a smile on her face, she pointed to her head:
"Don't forget, the authority you exercised once belonged to me."
"To a certain extent, our consciousnesses are one."
As he spoke, he opened his legs and walked slowly inside.
Unexpectedly, there was no teacher or classmate in the entire classroom, because Artemis's appearance felt strange.
He was still attending class normally, talking about knowledge points that were completely meaningless to Li Yang.
"놖I don't know what it's like over there...but what I see here is very strange."
"But...it doesn't matter."
"Since we are together, let's go out together."
With that said, he stretched out his hand towards Li Yang.
But Li Yang shook his head and said:
"No, wait a moment."
"놖There is someone I want to meet."
Artemis tilted her head in confusion:
"You...should know that this is all fake, right?"
Li Yang nodded.
Artemis was very puzzled: "Then...why are you still obsessed with dreams?"
Li Yang smiled: "After all, this may be the only chance to see them."
Artemis frowned slightly: "Them? Who are you referring to?"
Li Yang shrugged and did not answer.
Artemis sighed helplessly, walked over and sat down next to Li Yang:
"Then, you don't mind if 놖 is closer to you, right?"
"놖The dreamland here is a bit weird."
Li Yang was a little curious: "Why, what are you afraid of?"
Artemis smiled:
"놖See yourself being turned into a penguin and lost on a snowy iceberg."
"Next to 놇놖, there is a large pile of penguins squatting, and they are all looking at 놖 eagerly."
Li Yang smiled, not wanting to know that she was talking nonsense.
But since she doesn't want to tell herself, then forget it.
If I keep asking, I'm just asking for trouble.
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was gradually time for school to end.
Li Yang stood up, not even bothering to pack his things, and was ready to go out.
Seeing this, my deskmate asked in surprise:
"Li Yang, are you crazy? You didn't even bring your homework!?"
Li Yang glanced at him, grinned, and did not answer.
Follow the memory in your mind.
He walked through the busy road and came to the familiar door.
I went up to that all-too-familiar floor and gently knocked on a certain door——
"Dong dong dong——"
Artemis kept following Li Yang, a little confused:
"Are you...놇knocking on the door?"
"놖I am getting more and more curious about what you are looking at."
Soon there was the sound of "pattering" walking inside the door.
Then, the door was slowly pushed open.
A familiar face appeared in front of Li Yang:
"Did you leave your keys at school again?"
"Why didn't you bring your schoolbag when you came back? Did you go to the Internet cafe again?"
"Come in, wash your hands and get ready to eat!"
A rather complicated smile appeared on Li Yang's face:
"Hey, that's good."
"mom..."
Artemis opened her mouth, wanting to say something.
But looking at Li Yang's expression, he finally stopped talking.
Li Yang walked into the house and looked around at this home full of memories.
Hanging on the wall are paintings from his childhood, and the bookshelves are filled with books he has read countless times.
Every corner is full of warmth and familiarity.
Artemis stood aside quietly, not disturbing Li Yang's memories.
She knew that this moment was of great significance to Li Yang.
Li Yang sat on the sofa, holding his hands tightly together, as if thinking about something.
A trace of barely perceptible sadness flashed across his eyes.
Artemis sat opposite him, looking at him quietly.
She knew that Li Yang was talking to himself, and this was a spiritual baptism.
"I know that all this is fake, but this feeling... is really real."
Li Yang closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Artemis said softly:
"Dreams are sometimes more real than reality. They can touch our deepest emotions and let us face our truest side."
Li Yang nodded, opened his eyes, and looked at Artemis:
"What about you? What is your dream like?"
Artemis smiled slightly:
"Ah..."
"I saw...what I looked like when I was born."
Li Yang smiled: "Really? That sounds good."
Beside him, the flames burned.
In the dead star, there was a dead silence.
Artemis stood among countless corpses, looking at Li Yang in the light, and smiled elegantly:
"Yeah..."
"Really good..."
Artemis sighed: "You know, the meaning of this dream is to make you afraid, to make you tremble and choose to give up."
"The more beautiful things you see, the more likely it is... to be torn apart more tragically."
"For your own good... no matter how unforgettable the dream is, you should know how to give up."
The two fell into silence, each immersed in their own thoughts.
After a while, Li Yang stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the world outside the window.
After a long time, he slowly turned around and said to Artemis:
"Well, let's go, there are still many things waiting for you to do."
