70 Fishing, What a Big Fish

"The nutrients of the dream world?!" Jia Qingming asked in shock.

    He recognizes each of these words, but these words are connected in one place, and it becomes a very strange statement, which makes people unbelievable.

    Nutrients, such a statement is really sensational. It is easy to think of something terrible...

    Just like plants, their nutrients come from the fertilizer of the soil, and most of the fertilizer in the soil comes from decomposed plants and animals... from their decomposed... carcasses.

    Those decayed corpses are absorbed by the earth and then turned into nutrients and become food for plant growth.

    It's just a seemingly normal process, but in fact there are too many cruel factors in it.

    "Simply put it is death, but there are more terrible things." Bai Ling said, "The dream world is a world composed entirely of yin spirits. The spirit forms the foundation of this world. Everything in the dream world is human consciousness. The spirits that are generated use the mapping brought from the present world to deceive human feelings, so as to obtain a small amount of yang from the interaction between the dreamer and the dreamland as a nutrient." Bai Ling said, as if after thinking about it. An analogy. "Like... a liar pretending to be a friend to borrow money?"

    Why is this so modern, for example? ! And... absorb Yang Qi... that kind of thing...

    I seem to be aware of Jia Qingming’s fear of this phenomenon, or that all creatures that rely on Yang Qi to maintain their body functions will have instinctive fear when they hear such statements...

    So Bai Ling continued to explain:

    "But those spirits get very little yang energy, so dreaming, especially dreams with strong emotions such as joy, sadness, and fear, will always wake up a little more tired than when there is no dream. This is because the yang energy is consumed more. . But it doesn’t affect people’s lives too much. After all, the existence of Yin Ling is born to absorb human Yang Qi. But in reality, it is difficult to do this, because Yang Qi is for them , It is born with fear and burning pain. And the biological yang in this world is more exuberant, so the ghosts that Qingming sees are often dependent on objects."

    Jia Qingming nodded. It seems to be the case: Senior Wu Yao's ghost relies on the cabinet in the laboratory, and Uncle Jia Shansheng's spirit of the rockery god is also born from the clay statue. Those similar to "dependence" are objects, not life.

    "But in the dream world, the situation is not the same. The yang energy will be more easily lost from the dreamer's spirit and become a free state thing, which is easily absorbed by the yin spirit in the dream. It is also easy to attract... some kind of Something terrible." Bai Ling's voice became cold.

    "What?" Jia Qingming swallowed subconsciously.

    "The predator in the dream world is called Nightmare. It is also commonly known as Nightmare. It likes to destroy people's dreams, and obtains food for its growth from the scares of nightmares, which is the spirit that produces negative emotions. The better. Dreamland, the food produced after being destroyed, will also be more and more delicious. So it will wait, and will keep human dreams in captivity, especially...people who are addicted to the perfect world formed by Zhuang Zhou's dream... is their favorite food. ."

    "So...so..." Jia Qingming's voice trembled when he heard this, and he realized this terrible fact.

    "That's why I said that Zhuang Zhoumeng doesn't need a price, or that its existence... is a price." Bai Ling said slowly.

    "Why... why should you give her that kind of thing?" Jia Qingming stared into Bai Ling's eyes and said word by word. There was an inexplicable pain and anger burning in his heart. There was something in the depths of his soul. The thing, as if there is a beast lodged there, is about to break free from the chains and whizz out.

    That kind of thing... is a crimson spirit condensed by anger.

    Reflected in the eyes of the sky from the depths of his own soul.

    "Very good eyes." Bai Ling looked at Jia Qingming and said with a smile, "However, the customer knew the cost of this kind of thing, but she still made a choice in the end. That was her choice. She Since the choice was made with a completely free will, willing and able to pay, then I will help her realize it. How about? Does Mr. Seimei think this kind of thing is cruel? Or you can try and kill me. "

    She looked at Jia Qingming, her eyes looked like a bottomless cold pool, instantly cooling the hot and red spirit in his heart.

    When Jia Qingming reacted, one of his hands was holding Miss Bai Ling's neckline tightly, making a threatening gesture.

    He realized that he had made such an impulsive move...because of anger, because that kind of fiery angry spirit occupied his heart for a moment.

    "As I said, Mr. Seimei is a feminine person who is prone to be disturbed by ghosts... Correspondingly, the spirit is the same for Mr. Seimei. As long as human beings produce strong emotions, they will give birth to spirits, although that is extremely A short-lived spirit, but it can often become an extremely strong existence... It is easier to invade Mr. Seimei’s heart."

    Jia Qingming loosened his grip, and the skirt he had just grabbed drooped, and a large piece of white skin was exposed in the fluffy clothes.

    Bai Ling adjusted his collar, so Jia Qingming felt a little embarrassed when he saw the dazzling white quickly passing by. However, other than that, the turbulent feeling in my heart could not go away.

    Why did you suddenly do something like that, without realizing it at all...I was controlled by my emotional spirit...

    Jia Qingming took a deep breath to avoid falling into that situation again. He looked at Miss Bai Ling sternly and said:

    "But...she still has her own life...because of this kind of thing, Zhuang Yan... Zhuang Yan gave up everything. The school's first grade... a man who is willing to get back together with her My friend... the bright future she should have... everything... gave up, just for that... illusory dream..."

    As he said, he felt his voice choked, and hot tears fell down his cheeks.

    "Human beings are really interesting. The future, the future... are obviously only things in such a short life." Bai Ling still just covered his mouth and chuckled, staring at Jia Qingming, "I have lived such a long time. , Birth, old age, sickness and death, countless people are clearly alive, but they are afraid of all kinds of things, afraid of the eyes of others, dare not make their own choices, and just live a short life like that... There are too many people like that. Not to be confused by the appearance of the world, it is also a brave choice. Right?"

    Bai Ling stared at Jia Qingming, slowly chanting the ancient prose to conclude: "I don't know that Zhou's dream is Hu Dieyou, and Hu Die's dream is Zhouyou?"

    "But I must...must stop her...must..." Jia Qingming squeezed her fist tightly, "Even if it is her choice, even if it is her free will... But there are many more in the world... Someone related to her and Zhuang Yan... how can she unilaterally..."

    His voice trembled, and strong emotions exploded in the voice.

    Bai Ling clapped his palms lightly, seeming to applaud what he said: "Then, go and help her."

    The words she said suddenly came out of Jia Qingming's expectation. So he looked at her with some surprise.

    Obviously he was still saying something like that just now, as if it was "the guest's free choice anyway" and "will never interfere", but now...

    "What's the matter? Mr. Qingming, don't think of me as evil. I just think that human life is short, whether it is squandering or cherishing, it is too short. I did say before that I will never disclose the information of the guests. .So, Mr. Qingming knows, why would I tell him today?" Bai Ling's narrow beautiful eyes looked at him.

    Jia Qingming thought about this question for a moment, and finally shook his head.

    Miss Bai Ling did say something like that before, so even after Jia Qingming's repeated questioning, she just told Jia Qingming that this was "the guest's own choice."

    Regarding Zhuang Zhoumeng, Dream World, and the risks borne by Zhuang Yan...

    She did not mention a word before this, or it was true before she went out this time. But now, she puts all this together, without reservation.

    Could it be that it was because Miss Bai Ling had not seen the sun for too long before, that her heart became dark? I finally went out once so I became refreshed?

    Jia Qingming, who was extremely dignified just now, can now guess abnormally in his heart.

    Because... Although Miss Bai Ling's body is shrouded in mystery, for Jia Qingming it is more of a sense of peace of mind. It seems that all crises can be solved with her help.

    "Mr. Qingming thought, why am I not in the pavilion today? Mr. thought, why did I let him clean the second floor of the stealing tower?" Bai Ling said with a smile, guiding Jia Qingming's thinking, "the second of the stealing tower There are no important things in the layer. Those ancient things have been dusty for a long time, and they may not be useful. Even if they are cleaned, they will still be dusty if they are not used for a long time. There is nothing to clean or not to clean. the difference."

    Bai Ling had already reminded this, and Jia Qingming naturally understood it completely with his normal IQ.

    "You are obviously fishing?!" Jia Qingming exclaimed angrily.

    Bai Ling just covered her mouth with the long sleeves of Hanfu and smiled softly.

    "That's why! The ladder being dragged deliberately didn't have a tightly closed drawer... Is it completely guiding me to investigate?! So, Miss Bai Ling, you already knew that Zhuang Yan would be in the pavilion today, again Asked for Zhuang Zhoumeng, so I specifically let me come to receive it, because this is my own initiative and has something to do with her!"

    "That's right, Mr. Seimei knows everything. He is really smart. After all, I am the shopkeeper of Tooting Pavilion and a businessman. I only facilitate the transaction. As for the items of the transaction, it is good or bad for that person. "There is no difference." Bai Ling smiled faintly, "It's like the way of heaven--the heaven and the earth are not benevolent, and they regard everything as a dog. It means that the way of heaven treats everything without any difference. It is good or bad; it is life or death; Creation is destruction. There is no difference."

    Bai Ling looked at Jia Qingming: "But as a manager, Mr. Qingming, since the last Zhuang Zhoumeng was given to her by Mr. Qingming, this matter was done by Mr. Qingming and is closely related to her husband. Mr. Qingming can naturally intervene in this matter, and I too Can get more price from it, and why not provide information for Mr. Seimei?"

    This……

    Jia Qingming's eyes twitched.

    He was completely fishing for this big fish! As for casually finding a reason, leaving Stealing Heaven Pavilion temporarily, it is entirely to drag him into the water...

    "Why are you... so proficient?!" Jia Qingming could only sigh up to the sky, and he was simply a waste cat. "Also, what does it mean that dust will accumulate sooner or later, so don't clean it?! Whether it is used or not, it needs to be cleaned carefully! That kind of thing is the attitude of life!"

    "Okay." Bai Ling laughed, "Then, after the matter is over, clean up the second floor. I should re-establish my attitude towards life."

    "That's right." Jia Qingming said, Miss Bai Ling finally humbly accepting advice made him feel very happy, but suddenly he frowned and realized that things were not so simple...

    "Wait... if I clean the second floor, didn't I do it?!" Jia Qingming let out a desperate and painful cry.

    "Yes." Bai Ling covered his mouth, revealing a profiteer's smile.

    "Okay, the joke ends here." She laughed and said, "My guest has fallen into a coma now, that is to say, she is in the process of transforming from the world to the dream world, if Mr. Seimei wants to To help her, the first step is to bring her here."

    "Bring it here?" Jia Qingming asked. Sister Zhuang Yan should be in the hospital right now.

    Bai Ling nodded, confirming his statement: "In the hospital, there are many people with mixed eyes, and many changes are prone to occur. Moreover, this kind of thing would have required a lot of preparation to complete. Please also Mr. Qingming to bring her here first. At that time, I will make relevant preparations in the Tooting Pavilion to help Mr. Qingming fulfill this... wish. In addition to bringing that guest here, I will also bring Mr. Yuan with him. As for the others, if I want to come together, I will also Just welcome."

    Presumably the "other people" Bai Ling said refers to Xiao Shanshan and the others, right?

    But what does it mean to deliberately put an accent on the word "wish"? ! Is it reminding him to pay the price? When Jia Qingming has dealt with her, she has no hope for free services at all!

    Putting away the strong complaints in his heart, Jia Qingming feels that it is more important to help Zhuang Yan wake up: "Well, I will find a way to bring her over."

    Bai Ling nodded lightly and looked at the back of Jia Qingming's departure. Until he left, she felt helpless and smiled with relief. She sighed in a sad tone:

"What's the future? What's the future... Human beings are really interesting. Obviously they are a group of mayflies that are dying."
