Part 2 Chapter 45: Reflection
I couldn't help but exclaim "Ah". After Qin Yiheng's explanation, there was no need to ask what the dream was. It was obviously a pregnancy dream.
As I expected, he then told me that it was no secret that this evil ghost could wake people up from dreams. Many people would suddenly wake up in the middle of the night, sweating all over, but they couldn't remember what they dreamed about. This was mostly because they were awakened by the filth they passed by. Strictly speaking, it is a very mysterious warning reaction of the human body. However, it also varies from person to person. If a person has a very light fate, it will usually be difficult to wake up. On the contrary, the more they sleep, the deeper they fall asleep. No matter how early they went to bed the night before, they will definitely wake up late the next day, and they still can't remember what they dreamed about. The reason is that it is actually a kind of warning reaction, but this reaction is to prevent people with a light fate from accidentally bumping into filth when they wake up and get scared out of their wits. It is a kind of self-protection in the dark.
Although this bait is a living person in the human world, it contains a starving ghost after all. Therefore, bringing it into any bedroom will have the effect of disturbing dreams. I guess the person who raised it had planned this from the beginning. I'm afraid they have only one purpose - to disturb the dream of the fetus in that house.
Qin Yiheng asked me to shine a lighter on the man's back and pointed to me, saying that this table is not a chessboard at all, it just looks very similar. This thing is also used to record fetal dreams.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that this bait makes some babbling sounds and looks just like an animal. In fact, with the help of some magical techniques, you can communicate with it.
The evil ghost can understand dreams, so the person who raises him must be prepared to record the dreams he understands!
There may be a reason for doing this, which is that these people don’t know what the purpose of those fetal dreams is or why they should be recorded, so they can only use this method to check!
Qin Yiheng's words gave me a chill. Although what he said sounded complicated, it was not difficult to understand if I thought about it.
I had been in a hurry to pee before, but I had ignored it for a while because I had diverted my attention. But now, because of his words and my calmness, I realized that I couldn't hold it any longer.
I asked him to wait for a moment while I went to the bathroom.
The house is big, I'm not familiar with it, and it's dark, so it's difficult to find the toilet.
By the time I finally found it, I almost peed my pants.
After solving the problem, he returned to the living room, only to find that Qin Yiheng and the bait were gone.
I thought he found a place to rest, after all, that posture was quite tiring.
However, I shouted twice and realized that it wasn't them. Damn, they really disappeared.
I went to check the door and it was closed. I don't know if he closed it again after he went out.
I simply opened the door and ran after him. I looked left and right on the main road of the community for a long time, but there was no one in sight.
This villa area may be relatively old and not many people live there. After all, there must be more than one house that can be afforded here, so the outside looks very empty and feels deserted.
I had no choice but to go back to the old man's villa and look for my phone. When I found it, I discovered that the screen had been broken and I couldn't turn it on.
I groped my way to the kitchen, trying to see if there was anything I could use to provide some light. If that didn't work, I could always light the stove.
I really didn’t have time to think about it before, but now I’m starting to figure out what’s going on.
First of all, the old man disappeared, leaving the house to me and a bait that only knows how to eat. This obviously doesn't make sense. Let's not talk about whether he is worried that I will destroy the house. Just talking about the bait, according to Qin Yiheng's analysis, it should be a very important "thing". And I just looked at the form on its back, it is still empty, it should not be officially used yet. I thought to myself: "Is it a substitute? He left in a hurry? Is Zhou afraid that the bait will follow him and use it to delay time?"
Secondly, how did Qin Yiheng suddenly appear here? I came here straight after I got off the plane, and I hadn't contacted him in the meantime. I thought to myself: 'He has been following me and protecting me secretly? This time he showed up to save me because he saw that I was going to get into trouble? This is not reliable, there is no need for him to hide, right? '
I lit the stove, used the fire to light a cigarette, took a few puffs, and slowly, I seemed to understand.
In fact, I didn't realize it late, but I just instinctively didn't want to think in this direction.
Because the only speculation that can explain all this now is that Qin Yiheng was secretly communicating with this old man.
If that's the case, I thought to myself: 'The question the old man asked outside the door, 'Is he not real?', wasn't it also addressed to Qin Yiheng?'
I rubbed my temples, thinking about it made me feel like vomiting.
I simply sat on the ground. There was nothing in the old man's refrigerator, so I had to drink a few sips of tap water.
I recalled that from the time I entered the industry until now, it seemed that Qin Yiheng had me do a lot of things. I never doubted his original intention, and never even thought about it in this direction.
From childhood to adulthood, I have never been wary of my friends, and the same goes for Qin Yiheng. I believe that only when we trust each other can we be considered partners.
I was always listening to him telling me this, telling me that, and he explained a lot of things to me.
But what if what he explained to me was not the truth?
I dare not think about it. I don't know any magic. In fact, after doing this business for so long, I don't even know the basics. So, I can never find out whether what Qin Yiheng said is true or false.
To be honest, I don't know why I suddenly became suspicious of him. In fact, when I think about it carefully, he has no flaws.
But I still have a vague feeling that Qin Yiheng's actions are becoming more and more mysterious, and he is still hiding something from me.
But when I think about it carefully, there is really no need for him to harm me.
I smoked a few cigarettes and decided that I didn't need to stay here any longer. I didn't need to think about it, the old man would definitely not come back.
I went back to my previous room, picked up the two pairs of jogging shoes, left the villa area, and took a taxi home.
When I got home, I fell asleep without caring about anything, hoping that when I opened my eyes the next day, everything was just a dream.
However, reality continues.
The next day, I went to the mall and bought a new mobile phone. Then I called Qin Yiheng without any hope, but the call still didn't go through.
When I got home, I started trying to summarize the areas where I thought there were doubts. Needless to say, after careful consideration, there were quite a few doubts.
So, I tried to explore these doubts myself.
It's nothing more than relying on connections. Over the past few years, I have accumulated some connections, but most of them were people I met at the dinner table. There is one advantage to asking these people to do things for you: you just need to pay them enough money, and you don't need to rely on any favors.
Then, I also tried to use my connections to ask people to introduce me to a few people in the field of metaphysics. After all, most of my questions require such people to give me some reference.
Things went quite smoothly, but the answer I got surprised me a lot.
First, I started with the easiest target to investigate, which was Wan Jinrong. Wan Jinrong was indeed a real person, and his identity and background were exactly the same as what Qin Yiheng had told me. The only difference was that Wan Jinrong had died five years ago.
To be honest, I was extremely sad to get this answer.
Secondly, I also tried to meet a few so-called masters. However, maybe I had a biased view, because I subconsciously thought that except for Qin Yiheng, everyone else was a fraud, so I didn't find out anything. Part of the reason was that I couldn't disclose everything I had experienced.
For the next few days, I didn't leave the house. You could say I was waiting for Qin Yiheng or I was just resting, but I spent those days in a daze.
I was waiting for a express delivery.
This express package forced me to go out, because it was sent by Hongda Group. The content was very simple, and it clearly stated that Mr. Jiang and Mr. Qin were invited to participate in a bidding meeting. The content of the bidding meeting was not disclosed in detail, and I had no way to guess.
