Nightmare Light

Chapter 7: Giant Tree in the Distance
In front of Lin Wang, the paper bride was still gesturing at him. But now, he already understood what she meant.

you.

it's me.

Husband.

"What is going on?" Lin Wang was a little amused.

Anyone with normal values ​​would certainly not be able to accept such a setting. Moreover, a wobbly, weird little follower would definitely interfere with his exploration of this strange dream world.

So Lin Wang thought for a while and decided to use all the skills he had learned to communicate with students and patients before the time travel. He communicated with the paper bride for eight hundred rounds to make her give up this unrealistic idea.

"Well, listen to me..."

Then, the scene in front of him collapsed again.

But this time the dream collapsed, and the feeling Lin Wang felt was quite different from the last time he "woke up".

Last time, he could clearly feel the process of emerging from the dream, and then waking up and taking over the body.

this time……

Lin Wang felt himself falling, and as he fell, the collapsed fragments of his previous dream gradually turned into powder in front of him.

He even saw the colorful and funny features of the paper bride in one of the fragments.

The fragments of the old dream gradually dissipated, and a pure white light appeared in front of him. As Lin Wang fell, he suddenly felt a very clear emotion coming from him -

Vast and gentle.

This gigantic being seemed to feel very sorry for forcibly dragging Lin Wang into the dream. However, it was very anxious and had no choice but to do so.

After realizing that the other party had no ill intentions, Lin Wang relaxed his mind, immersed himself in this new dream, and began to try to communicate with the other party.

who are you?
Why dragged me into this dream?
【Feel sorry……】

The other party seemed very anxious. After sending a string of apologies, "TA" quickly forced a large amount of memories and knowledge into Lin Wang, and then cut off contact with Lin Wang.

Lin Wang suddenly felt as if his brain was DDOSed with hundreds of terabytes of junk data. It made a "buzzing" sound instantly, and the extra knowledge even made him feel the "weight of knowledge".

At that moment, he felt as if he had worked without sleep for three consecutive days, made more than forty PPTs, and then was dragged out to drink all night.

Fortunately, he was in amazing physical condition now, and he was in a dream, so he quickly recovered from the severe dizziness and began to observe his surroundings.

As for the knowledge that suddenly flooded into his mind, he decided to deal with it after he figured out his situation.

Then he froze.

In front of me was an endless expanse of pure white nothingness, and beneath my feet was a completely pure white expanse. A grayish-white hemispherical sky with slight variations in light and dark was inverted above my head, extending all the way to the horizon.

Although this "sky dome" doesn't look very big, Lin Wang knows very well that this is because there is a lack of reference points. If there were reference points...

In fact, there is a reference.

Lin Wang looked into the distance.

In the distance of sight, it is difficult to describe the distance specifically. One can only feel that there is a tree in the distance.

In the decades before Lin Wang's time travel, he had seen many giant trees dubbed "covering the sky and the sun", whether in literary works or in person while traveling.

But only this time, "covering the sky for days" is not an adjective, but a fact.

The feeling that tree gave Lin Wang was like being on an endless plain, seeing a tornado and rainstorm stretching across the horizon. Although it was very small in his sight, the visual perception still made him understand -

That thing is huge!

What made Lin Wang even more unbelievable was that even if there was a tornado or heavy rain in the sky, he could still visually see where the top was.

But the incredibly huge tree in the distance stood straight in front of him, piercing through the sky and earth and piercing into the sky. It was impossible to judge how tall it was.

The giant tree, like the world tree in mythology, was huge and towering, reaching from the sky to the earth. It stood in front of Lin Wang, silent and shocking.

"Oh my god..."

This was the only tree in the pure white "dream space," so Lin Wang concluded that his previous anxious and apologetic mood was likely related to this tree. He walked towards it.

Every time Lin Wang took a step, there would be a heartbeat like a drum, ringing simultaneously in Lin Wang's heart and consciousness.

And as he approached the tree, this feeling became clearer.

Lin Wang felt it.

This tree... is calling me?
Is there some kind of connection between me and it?

Lin Wang felt a vague sense of unease about what had happened to him. But more than that, he felt a certain curiosity.

What secrets are hidden in my body?
While thinking, Lin Wang quickened his pace.

However, the tree was too far away. Even though Lin Wang was in amazing physical condition and had been running for a long time, there was still no sign of it getting any closer.

After running for a long time, Lin Wang began to feel tired.

Besides being tired, he was more concerned about another thing—as he ran, his connection with this "dream" began to weaken.

At the edge of the field of vision, some small collapses and cracks began to appear.

In the gaps between the collapsed debris, Lin Wang could even see the carriage where he had fallen asleep while waiting for the Public Security Bureau, as well as the rune patterns on the surrounding parts of the carriage.

No, we can't just leave here like this.

That tree is very important. If I leave here... God knows if I will come back next time!

Think of a way... think of a way!
Lin Wang, use your brain and think of a solution!
The space around him became increasingly unstable. Lin Wang even saw a swaying figure appear in front of him - it should be a soldier from a public security bureau.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that when he had just fallen into this space, that huge consciousness had instilled a lot of knowledge into him.

Perhaps, the key to solving the problem lies in that pile of knowledge!

Lin Wang took a deep breath and tried hard to concentrate, wanting to prevent himself from "waking up". At the same time, he quickly mobilized his thoughts and tried to find useful knowledge in his mind.

A huge amount of knowledge flashed through his mind in an instant, and Lin Wang quickly found some knowledge that seemed very important.

[Spiritual Guidance Training...]

[Establishing and searching the dream address index...]

How to associate a root domain name with Dreamland...

【…】

More than 70% of the knowledge here is beyond Lin Wang’s understanding.

The other 30% is even more incomprehensible.

However, in a desperate situation, Lin Wang still found a set of knowledge in the vast amount of knowledge, whose literal meaning could be completely understood!
Manual for the Care of Large Plants

Lin Wang: “……?”

This dream was finally shattered in front of him.

The dream fragments shattered into pieces, and Lin Wang fell rapidly and woke up.

This time, before he woke up completely, he clearly heard a sigh——

"Ugh……"

"time is limited……"

　Today, a reader gave me a good suggestion about the name of the main city:
　　He said: Rizhao in Shandong was called Tanggu in ancient times, which means the valley where the sun shines.

　　Your book is called Nightmare Light, Sunshine in the Darkness.

　　So the main city can be called Tangsheng, which means the city where the sun rises.

　　After listening to it, I exclaimed,
　　At the same time, my inner reaction was: What if the readers are more educated than the author?
