Volume 1 Chapter 95 Dream Learning

  "Wake up, Xiaoyu. Wake up..." Who's making noise? Wasn't I just looking at jewelry? Why are they telling me to wake up? Am I dreaming? Hmm? It seems like my eyes were closed. Hurry and open them, feeling a bit dazed. Isn't this that big rock over there? How did I fall asleep here? Who was it that just called me?"

  "Ah? A handsome face suddenly appeared in front of me, and I was startled. It was Xiao Yang. He was frowning at me. "Were you dreaming?" We asked simultaneously. Apparently, he was also confused. "Was it really just a dream? I clearly remember we both went down, and entered the cave. There were traps inside, and stone gates. Do you remember these things?" I asked him urgently. He nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes, I remember. The gate in the cave was controlled by a hand-shaped mechanism. We passed through two stone gates, and there was a stone bed that opened to reveal a treasure room." Everything we said matched, but why were we inexplicably here? Shouldn't we be inside admiring the jewels? So many dazzling jewels!"

  "Not yet, there's another one. What about Lu Qi?" Xiao Yangnu asked with a smile: "He's beside you." Only to see Lu Qi quietly lying beside him, his face actually revealing a radiant smile, somewhat dazzling and charming.

  I shook my head, dazed and asked Xiao Yang: "We can't have the same dream, right? I think we should be inside the stone cave?" "Yes, we were originally inside." Xiao Yang nodded. I was shocked and confused: "Ah? But isn't that a dream? Why did we come out again? Didn't we find the treasure and also find Lu Qi's ancestor? And what about Mo, didn't he come with us?" "He left." Xiao Yang replied firmly.

  "How come I don't know anything? When did he leave? How did we get here? It's all his doing. Right?" I came to my senses, and couldn't help but feel a bit resentful: "This Mu, is really annoying. Why didn't he let me take a closer look at those jewels and accessories? Can't have them, can't even look?"

  "I know, because he can't stay here for too long, it's not good for him." Xiao Yang explained, "He is the Dream God, and shouldn't have come to the mortal world during the day. If he exceeds his time limit, he will be punished." "Ah? Is that so? Then is he in danger?" My heart suddenly felt a bit anxious, "But Mo is an immortal, he should be fine, right?"

  Xiao Yang comforted him, "Don't worry, he won't be in trouble. We've already handled things here, and he has to leave." Xiao Yang pointed to a nearby location, I looked over and saw a new grave not far from the rock, with a tombstone in front of it.

  I suddenly realized that everything in the stone cave wasn't a dream, those jewels, the master of the cave, were all things we experienced inside the cave. But Mo could only make us feel it was a dream because he is the Dream God. His appearance can only be related to dreams. I just misunderstood him. Sorry, Mo. Silently apologizing in my heart, hoping he could hear my inner voice.

  He slowly got up and came to Lu Qi's side, looking at his sleeping appearance was really cute, like a baby attracting people's attention. "Xiao Yang, we're all awake, why isn't he awake yet?" It's a bit strange! Hmm? It seems to be moving? Why is it still moving its hands and feet? Eh, no, this hand movement looks so familiar! Only to see Lu Qi's hand stretched out two fingers, with a forceful swing, wasn't this the sword move I practiced before? Looks like he's practicing kung fu in his dream!

  Sitting quietly like this, watching Lu Qi performing enthusiastically in his dream, hehe, wait till he wakes up and scold him properly, sleeping so restlessly. But I'm a bit worried, after all it's winter, and on this cold icy stone, if he sleeps any longer, he might catch a cold. Thinking of this, I was just about to reach out and pull his ears to wake him up.

  "Don't move, I'm awake." He suddenly opened his eyes without warning, and those dark pupils stared at me with a smile, while my hand was suspended in mid-air. I quickly withdrew my hand and smoothed out my hair: "Heh heh, my hair's all messy."

  He lay there looking at me, his eyes filled with uncontrollable excitement: "No wonder you guys are so powerful, it turns out that you have such a magical master, great!" I intentionally asked in confusion: "Are you dreaming? You're thinking about Master to the point of madness. I saw your sleeping posture just now and it was hilarious. You actually thought about learning martial arts even in your dreams! Alas, what a martial arts fanatic! Unfortunately, it's just a dream after all!"

  He immediately sat up straight, muttering to himself: "No way, I think I'm really learning kung fu! Master also said that besides what he taught me, he also taught me the swordsmanship of my ancestors."

  He finished speaking and couldn't wait to show off. He sprang into the air, whoa, jumping really high! Then he floated gently back down to the ground, standing there calmly with a look of ease. The sparkle in his eyes grew even stronger. "Haha, I can do it! I can do qinggong! I can do martial arts!" Someone was laughing maniacally with pride. I exchanged a glance with Xiao Yang, both of us shaking our heads speechlessly.

  After a while, the man slightly calmed down. I adjusted my clothes and patted my hands, saying: "Excited enough? If you're done, come pay your respects to your ancestors!" Lu Qi finally cooled down and saw the tombstone by the rock, which read "The Tomb of Great Hero Lu Zhiyi". Next to it were blank spaces. Lu Qi silently squatted down and stroked the tombstone. After a moment, he stood up and started searching around. I was puzzled: "What are you looking for?" He replied in a low voice: "Looking for stones to carve words." Xiao Yang heard this and quickly pulled out the dagger from his body, handing it over to him: "Use this!"

  Lu Qi took it over and didn't say a word, squatting at the tombstone to engrave one knife after another. His handwriting was originally good, but I had never seen him use a knife to engrave words before, and unexpectedly, they were really beautifully engraved. After finishing the engraving, he looked at what he had written: "Later generations of Lu Qi pay their respects". Then, he solemnly kowtowed three times, knelt silently for a while before getting up, presumably having a silent conversation with his ancestors.

  "Alright, our ancient cave trip should end now. As for the treasures inside, Mu said we shouldn't bother with them, so let's not bother then!" I stretched my arms and looked up at the sky, "It's getting late, Pang Yu and the others are still waiting for us upstairs!" "Okay, let's hurry up and go!" The two of them nodded in agreement. Thanks to Mu, he managed to get all of us out, otherwise it would have taken a lot of effort to get out of that ancient cave.

  My heart felt at ease, so I proposed: "Hey, now that the three of us have learned Master's martial arts, why don't we have a competition? Let's see who can reach the top of the mountain first!" Lu Qi had just learned qing gong and was eager to show off, so he immediately agreed. Xiao Yang naturally followed my lead. So, after we took our positions, I shouted loudly: "The competition has begun!" Three figures swiftly moved their bodies, lightly touching the treetops as they flew by, gradually drifting further and further away.
