Part 2 Chapter 38 Pregnancy Dream
I was so impressed by these patterns that I could not possibly remember them wrongly. I discussed this with him at the time, and he told me that although these patterns were not the same, they should depict the same thing, but that thing was just moving in different ways.
"How did this thing get here? Is this bath center related to Fang Wanjin? Is it their family's business?"
I was completely confused, and Qin Yiheng also said he couldn't explain it. However, he was sure that the thing in front of us was a bed, because there was a very shallow groove on it, and he guessed that it was the place where the jade pillow or magnetic pillow was placed earlier.
After he reminded me, I also found the groove, but it was even more confusing. Could this room be a massage room like the other rooms? Not to mention that the bed was so high that it was inconvenient to get on and off, it was a metal bed. Would it be comfortable to lie on it? Was he here to enjoy a massage or to seek punishment? And the pattern on the ceiling didn't make sense, did it?
I thought about it and suddenly I was shocked because I seemed to have found a reasonable explanation. Considering the situation, it seems unlikely that a person would sleep in this room, but it would be normal if a corpse was sleeping there. Instantly I felt a chill on my neck. Damn, is this room a place for corpses?
I stepped back, away from the bed, and then discussed my guess with Qin Yiheng.
After listening to this, he pondered for a moment and said that it seemed to make some sense, but he also had a guess. In connection with our previous analysis based on the house, the table was a record of the menstrual period by a woman in the Fang family who was afraid of getting pregnant. If we think along that line of thought, there must be a living person sleeping in this room.
Qin Yiheng cleared his throat and continued, "I'm afraid I have found the reason why there are different patterns recorded on the Juzhai. Those are the dreams of a certain woman during pregnancy! Therefore, they are recorded in combination with the menstrual chart. And here, I'm afraid it is also recording someone's dream during pregnancy!"
After Qin Yiheng finished speaking, I didn't react for a while. It was only after he explained it to me again that I understood.
To be honest, I think his guess is a bit far-fetched. I tried to imagine the scene: a pregnant woman lying on this cold steel bed, surrounded by several people waiting to record her fetal dreams. This is more frightening than watching a corpse being dissected.
Many people have probably heard of this concept of pregnancy dream. In short, it is a dream that women have when they are pregnant. It is said that this dream is very strange and a lot of information can be extracted from the content, such as the gender of the fetus, the future destiny, and even more outrageous claims that one can learn about the fetus's previous life from it.
A while ago, a college classmate of mine was pregnant. She talked about this in our class QQ group, so I have some knowledge of it. She told us that when she was three or four months pregnant, she often dreamed of a man with a knife chasing her. The dream was very real, and she was scared awake several times. Later, she went to find someone to see her. The person told her that this child was her enemy in her previous life, and this time he came to take revenge. He bluntly advised her that this child must be a troublemaker and suggested that she abort it.
The person she found was very famous in the local area, and what he said was probably not nonsense to cheat money. But as a mother, she would certainly be reluctant to abort her own child. So, although my classmate was skeptical, he finally did not make up his mind.
Later, when the child was born, everything was calm. However, I don’t know if it was a coincidence, when the child was over one year old, my classmate’s husband drove the child out. The child suddenly burst into tears and couldn’t stop crying. No matter how he tried to comfort him, it was useless. Finally, my classmate’s husband had no choice but to stop the car on the side of the road to see if the child had any acute illness. Strangely, the child stopped crying as soon as the car stopped. But before he could start the car again, a car behind him lost control and chased him. In the end, the child was fine, but his arm and nose were broken.
This incident inevitably reminded people of the previous pregnancy dream, so we discussed this matter for a long time in the group during that period of time.
Unfortunately, I hadn't contacted Qin Yiheng at that time, so I didn't interrupt and just watched.
Now that I heard Qin Yiheng say that it might be related to prenatal dreams, I thought about the experiences of my classmates, but it still makes me confused.
According to my understanding, even if this kind of dream happens frequently, the content should be the same. But looking at the situation in this room, is the person having the dream still dreaming a series of dreams?
I asked him, “Is your guess reliable?”
He continued to explain to me: "From the current scientific understanding, dreams are when people sleep but their brains do not rest, but keep imagining, so dreams are formed, which is a very illusory thing."
"In metaphysics, it is the exact opposite. Dreams are solid objects in metaphysics. Many masters of the art can even use small bottles or gourds to collect dreams and sell them to people in need at a high price. There is a lot of buying and selling of prenatal dreams like this among the people. Usually, pregnant women buy prenatal dreams that bring good luck or predict their children's future success. It is not clear whether they are useful or not, but there is still a market for them, which shows that some people still believe in them."
"This trading dream not only sounds magical, but also requires a lot of practice. The specific implementation has to do with time, location and even birth date, so it is very complicated. I have only heard about it, and I have never seen what the entity of the dream looks like."
"However, what is certain is that this so-called entity must not be something that can be seen or touched, but should be a very abstract concept. According to legend, many strange beasts feed on people's dreams, especially beautiful dreams. It can be seen that good dreams are still somewhat useful."
After Qin Yiheng's explanation, to be honest, I still feel a little disappointed.
In life, there are not many things that truly belong to you. The so-called cars, houses, and money are all fleeting things. They may not be yours tomorrow. Now even dreams can be taken away by others. It does sound like it makes people lose faith in the world.
However, now is not the time to sigh, so I asked Qin Yiheng: "Are these prenatal dreams prophecies or omens or something? Are these people predicting the future here? Because I have heard many rumors that dreams can predict the future."
He uttered a noncommittal "hmm" and said, "First of all, there are many kinds of dreams, and some special kinds of dreams have specific names. Among them, there are indeed some that can predict the future. In the art of magic, this is called "messenger reminders." The reason for this strange name is that most dreams that predict the future are warnings of some life-threatening disasters or something. Simply put, in metaphysics, this is understood as the ghost messenger giving you a reminder. The legendary underworld is not a machine, and it is inevitable that mistakes will occur. It is obviously not your fault, but the underworld accidentally puts it on your head. In order to make up for it, it can be regarded as a humane reminder. However, this is just a rumor. Whether it is really true or not, I am afraid you will know it after you die."
Qin Yiheng also told me a very new concept: "Many people should have heard that everything you dream about is the opposite, that is, the bad things you dream about in your dreams may not be really bad things, but strictly speaking, this is actually a misunderstanding. The first half of the night, that is, from 6 pm to midnight, the dreams are positive, and the dreams from midnight to 6 am are negative. I don't know the specific reason, but I guess it should have something to do with the exchange of yin and yang. In ancient times, people did not have such a rich night entertainment life as now. They all rested at sunset and worked at sunrise. If you make this distinction, you can divide a night's sleep into two equal parts. Now, there are only a few people who can go to bed before 12 o'clock, let alone go to bed at 6 pm. Therefore, now gradually no one thinks that dreaming in the early middle of the night is positive, and only insiders know the inside story. People who know a little bit about the industry will check the time when they wake up after any dream they have."
Qin Yiheng finished talking, and I looked at the time. It was already past midnight.
It wasn't a good idea for the two of us to stay in this room all the time, so I discussed with him that if he didn't have any ideas, he could go back to the hotel and have a rest. At worst, he could come back tomorrow.
He didn't object. He said that he didn't have a good guess about the specific purpose of this fetal dream. The only thing he could do now was to cross the river by feeling the stones. After that, Qin Yiheng took me out of the room. After walking two steps, he suddenly remembered and said, "It was rumored that a large anchor was transported in. We need to look for it first."
