"No, it can stand for tens of thousands of years, and the small events of decades ago will make you unhappy" Qi Lu didn't understand the meaning of his words.
"Don't you know, the Red Guards at that time destroyed the last temple in the world dedicated to me in order to break the four olds.
I also gave a big gift and dedicated my idol to Zhurong.
It sounded like a joke, but there was a helpless look on Birch's face.
Qi Lu was taken aback, "In this way, you have completely cut off contact with real humans."
"Yes, now you should understand why I sneaked into dreams like those lowly dream tapirs to feed on energy."
Qi Lu understood that if the human being's belief in the God of Dreams and sacrifices quietly stopped, he would gradually weaken, and his divine power would slowly disappear.
In the end, it can only maintain eternal life, guiding mankind in the form of a myth.
In other respects, he is no different from ordinary mortals.
But this is not the most unfortunate thing, and the worst of them can even cause Oneiroi to lose his immortality.
In that case, he would have to go through birth, old age, sickness, and death like a mortal, and eventually fall into reincarnation and never be able to regain his status as a god.
"Well, I understand your current situation."
Qi Lu, who was still at ease, turned grim in a blink of an eye, and he said coldly: "But no matter what, you can't sacrifice human lives to maintain your divine power, it's against the way of heaven." ” "Hehe" Birch laughed again, he said to Qi Lu in a condescending posture, "So, do you still want to kill me by getting rid of those monsters?"
A cold wind blew, and this illusory space seemed to be full of murderous intent.
Qi Lu's expression became nervous, and he sighed softly.
"Even if the ignorance of the world offends you, you are not a demon after all, and the contract between the Protoss and humans must be observed."
Birch also sighed and said, "Just because people don't worship me anymore, do you think I hate them You are wrong, although humans are a little ungrateful, I love them." ” He smiled and put down the teacup in his hand, his shining eyes seemed to be full of life, and then he continued: "If you are not afraid of losing your life, just fight me" Qi Lu was a little hesitant, even Lao Wu's carefully arranged strategy was seen through by Birch, and he felt that he had no chance of winning at all.
But let Birch go, Qi Lu was unwilling.
"I see a murderous aura in your eyes."
Birch smiled again and said, "But before you do it, I still advise you to listen to me, otherwise you will regret it for the rest of your life." ” There are indeed many mysteries precipitated in his heart, and Qi Lu didn't want to step into the ghost gate with these doubts, so he drank another cup of tea.
The atmosphere began to soften, and Birch put away his folding fan and stared at Qi Lu.
After a long time, he said slowly: "You are getting more and more stupid, it seems that your head has really been kicked by the donkey many times." ” "People who are too smart usually don't live long, so I'm still alive."
"Are you talking about him" Both of their eyes dimmed, and Birch paused for a moment to change the subject and said, "Do you know why I want to help you?"
"Do you mean the first few times I helped me sneak into Pei Liping's dream?"
"Yes, I wanted you to sweep away the demons, but you messed things up."
Qi Lu frowned and said, "The mirage is a difficult guy, I admit that with my current strength, I can't deal with him." ” "When you came to this neighborhood on your first day, I infiltrated your dreams and learned who you really are," Birch said. ” "Then don't I thank you for not taking the opportunity to absorb my energy?"
"I'm just devouring the product of consciousness from a nightmare, and I'm going to leave quietly when I'm done.
This way it only makes people sleep more sweetly, and they don't even notice my presence. ” "But how do you explain the people who died in the community, don't tell me, it has nothing to do with you?"
Birch laughed, "You're really right, their death is really none of my business." ” "You're a clever tongue."
Of course Qi Lu didn't believe it.
"I'll tell you exactly what happened, but I might be shocked when I know the truth."
"I want to hear about it."
Birch smiled wryly and said: "I relied on dreams and wandered around the world, until I found that this community was very suitable for life and recuperation, so I stayed here and stopped wandering." ” "It's a treasure of feng shui, and the gods really like to stop here."
Qi Lu does not deny this.
"I used to have a comfortable life, but the arrival of that mirage completely disrupted the rhythm of my life.
Originally, I didn't want to do much because the well water didn't interfere with the river water, but he used his magical powers to sneak into the dreams of the residents, which made me unable to calm down. ” "No one likes to be disturbed while eating, so it's inevitable that there will be conflicts."
Birch nodded and said, "I'd love to kill him, but this little creature is cunning and runs faster than a rabbit every time." ” "So you want to get rid of him by my hand" "I didn't have this intention at first, but I didn't want you to wade into this troubled water, so I didn't hesitate to pass on a message to you through Lao Wu's dream, hoping that you would be able to retreat.
But you, a wooden head, are obsessively pursuing the truth of Ye Xuanzhi's death, so I have to temporarily change my mind and count on you to deal with him.
But it turns out that I was wrong, you are worse than I thought, not only could you not kill him, but you almost died at his hands. ” Qi Lu blushed, and he still remembered the experience of fighting with the mirage.
"So I changed my way and wanted you to know the truth of the matter, so that even you would interfere with my life.
But this failed again, and you still can't tell the difference between friend and foe. ” "Do you know why the mirage sneaks into these people's dreams, he doesn't have a habit of devouring nightmares?"
Qi Lu's face turned even redder, and he quickly bypassed the topic.
"Of course, it's looking for the clues you want."
"I have to admit it's a clever idea," Birch said.
The clue he was looking for was someone in the community, but there were thousands of people living here, and if he checked them one by one, I was afraid that a year would not be enough for him.

But if the seed of a clue is planted in the dream, then the person will reveal the source of the clue in the dream, and he will naturally shorten the time to get the answer. ” Qi Lu had to admit that the mirage was very smart and thoughtful.
Birch added: "It's a good idea, but it has a side effect. ” "Are you saying that the seeds planted by the mirage in the dream increase the frequency of nightmares," Qi Lu felt that he was getting closer to the truth of the facts.
"It's just one aspect, and what's even more annoying is that it makes people wake up and remember everything in their dreams."
Qi Lu understood why Pei Liping killed him, because he found that Qi Lu appeared in his dream twice in a row.
With his level of comprehension, he naturally thought that Qi Lu had cast a spell to investigate the secret of Su Ling's death, but in fact, Qi Lu and Pei Liping couldn't tell what was going on at that time.
Birch said, "If the dream is an ordinary dream, it will not affect people."
But the nightmare is the shadow of the human heart, the past that some people don't want to remember for the rest of their lives, and these small actions of the mirage are so serious that even he can't predict them. ” Qi Lu's face changed, and he suddenly discovered that the truth of the matter was actually related to the mirage.
"Anyone who has been harassed by him, those nightmare experiences are vivid after waking up, and in reality they will naturally be tormented by their hearts."
Qi Lu said coldly: "But this is not enough to make people die." ” "For most people, it's just a short-term impact on their health, and it will recover over time.
But for a very small number of people, it's a talisman. ” "What do you mean?"
"Man is a very complex creature, often a combination of good and evil.
Some people may be recognized as good people now, but it doesn't mean that they were good people before. ” "You don't talk too much here" Although Qi Lu's voice is very loud, he is obviously a little unconfident.
"Then I'll start with what Ye Xuanzhi knows."
Birch opened the folding fan again, and all the tea sets on the table disappeared, and the smooth top of the jade table became transparent, revealing the picture like a television screen.
Qi Lu glared at it, this shot was someone's room.
"This is the source of Ye Xuanzhi's nightmare."
Birch swiped the fan, and the camera zoomed in, resting on a pile of models in the bookcase.
Birch smiled and asked him, "Do you recognize what this is?"
"Motorcycle model" Qi Lu gasped, and with these beautifully crafted models, he recognized that this was the first young man's home that he and Ding Xiaolan came into contact with when they investigated the truth about Ye Xuanzhi's death.
Ye Mingfeng also told him that Ye Xuanzhi began to become nervous after doing the Fa at his house, thinking that there were ghosts harming him.
After a while, Qi Lu seemed to be a little calm, his blank gaze shifted from the stone table to Birch who was sitting opposite him, and asked softly: "Don't tell me that these models have become refined, they killed Ye Xuanzhi" "I said, how do you drill the horns of the bull so hard, it's really stupid and sad."
Birch's face was gloomy.
Qi Lu replied without humility or arrogance: "I'm not a smart person, but I'm not a stupid person either. ” "The mouth is quite tough.
Well, I'll let you know what's going on.
Birch tapped the edge of the jade table with his folding fan.
The picture on the screen gradually faded, and another scene unfolded in front of Qi Lu's eyes.
It was a dark night, and there seemed to be no one in the empty streets.
It was only a few seconds before Qi Lu heard the roar of a motorcycle, and as the noise became more and more harsh, a motorcycle came at a gallop from a distance.
Seeing that the motorcycle was about to disappear from Qi Lu's perspective, a young man in a casual jacket suddenly turned around the corner of the street, and he wanted to quickly walk along the zebra crossing to the other side of the street, without noticing the speeding motorcycle.
"It's not good" Qi Lu knew that this was an illusion, but he still shouted involuntarily.
"Knock" The motorcycle failed to brake and collided head-on with pedestrians, and the young man was knocked five or six meters away, his head fell heavily on the hard and cold concrete road, and blood suddenly flowed to the ground.
"He's dead," Qi Lu muttered.
"It could have been immortal."
Birch replied to him without any emotion.
The motorcyclist also panicked, and quickly took off his helmet and got out of the car to check the injuries of the person who fell to the ground.
He saw the wounded man convulsing on the ground, groaning and unable to utter a complete word, as if he was about to fall into a coma.
After hesitating for a moment, the motorcyclist looked back to check the movement around him, and found that there were no pedestrians passing by, so he put on his helmet with trembling hands, quickly sat on the motorcycle and stepped on the accelerator, and the car fled the scene like a fly.
"This hateful perpetrator actually escaped on the spot" Qi Lu scolded.
"Do you want to know who he is" When Birch got an affirmative answer from Qi Lu's eyes, he swiped the folding fan into the void, and the camera began to rewind like a projector to the clip where the motorcyclist took off his helmet, and then the camera gradually zoomed in, and Qi Lu finally saw a familiar face clearly.
"Ye Xuanzhi" Qi Lu cried out loudly, although this was a young face, Qi Lu still recognized him at a glance. i0 t1706231537:
