After saying these two sentences to Ya Nana, the temperature on the ground suddenly skyrocketed, as if she was standing above the crater now, and an endless heat wave was about to erupt.

But the red earth has no shelter, and she can't climb to any slightly higher place to take shelter.

The only thing taller than her was the setting sun on the horizon.

Xiang Ya's feet were about to be steamed, and she ran away regardless.

It is strange that under such a bumpy movement, the bell still remains asleep, as if it has cut off all perception of the outside world.

Xiang Ya carefully paid attention to everything around her, while getting closer and closer to the sun, which was many times higher than her.

The weird thing is that the sunset is like a decoration, emitting an icy flame, as if all the heat has been integrated into the long red earth, and it only has a cold body left.

What gave Xiangya such a feeling was that in the first instance, she and Jia Jia ran into the sun together, and all the cool fireworks rolled over her body at that time.

Xiang Ya wondered if the sun in all dreams was the opposite of reality.

Perhaps the paradoxical part of the dream often comes from - maintaining a similar appearance to reality, but the inner quality has undergone earth-shaking changes.

When the mind kept drifting away, Xiang Ya had come to the foot of the sun.

She gasped for breath and looked up at the spherical sun, which was not too dazzling...

The palm of his hand suddenly touched it lightly.

As cold as imagined, the palm pressed down slightly to dent.

"It's kind of like a chunky balloon."

Xiang Ya immediately took a knife out of his pocket and cut it into the sun. The orange-red fire slurry slowly leaked out along the small cracks, and there were some fine flashes mixed in it, like glass mixed into the slurry.

She took out the weapon transforming liquid in her backpack, transformed the short knife in her hand into a rope with an iron hook, took a few steps back, swung it vigorously, and slammed it into the sun.

With a sound of "Puchi", the hook actually hooked on the upper side, and pulled hard towards the buds, making sure that the iron hook was tightly attached to the surface of the sun.

She put the bell in the hood of the hooded sweater, turned the clothes back on, and climbed up with it in her pocket.

The place where the foot stepped down was concave for a moment, and the elasticity returned to normal. The palm and the rope rubbed together. With the help of the healing liquid, the pain returned to normal in a moment, and the repeated pain stimulated the bud to continue to climb up.

After an unknown amount of time, Xiang Ya finally saw the top of the sun, a small black spot standing still.

But she was about to climb to the place where the hook fell, and there was still some distance to the top. She gritted her teeth, hooked her fingers into the hole where the hook was pierced, and supported herself with one hand.

Because of inertia, she fell, and the opening was opened wider and wider.

Xiang Ya took the time to pull out the iron hook and threw it up again. Fortunately, this time the hook pierced into the vicinity of the black spot.

She continued to climb up again as before.

Xiangya got closer and closer to the sky, and found that the black spot he had just seen below was actually a curled up girl.

'The personality of this world appears. ’

Regardless of the severe pain caused by the repeated wear and tear of the palm, Xiang Ya accelerated the speed of his climb up.

Finally, the figure appeared at the top.

Xiangya put away the iron hook, stood and looked down at the ragged girl in front of her.

"Hello? Are you here to escape?"

The girl moved slightly, turned her head out of her arms, and stared up at Xiang Ya.

The corners of her mouth were bruised, the bruises around her eyes were purple, and none of the clothes were clean as seen in the clues.

When Xiang Ya and Mo Xinxin were discussing in the room, they inferred that this personality was cowardly, and it seemed that it was easier to live in the world of several personalities.

The only thing that might be tricky is the rotting giant snake that hunts down.

However, until now, the snake has been missing.

The girl muttered a few times before saying, "It's about to appear."

She spoke in a low voice, but could still be heard clearly in the silent space.

Xiang Ya stood on a high place and looked around, but still nothing appeared on the red soil.

The girl below was still looking up at her.

Xiang Ya just turned around to ask her name, "What's your name?"

But when his eyes touched the girl's face again, Xiang Ya's pupils shrank slightly.

The girl in front of her eyes slowly grew a purple-red thing from the corner of her eye, slowly swimming near her temple.

"My name is A Lan." She said obediently.

The snake's mouth widened slowly, the square bone moved slightly, and the snake's body also widened, and the big mouth almost touched the girl's temple.

But the girl's ignorance made Xiang Ya feel even more chilled.

'It's not that the giant snake didn't appear, but that it was hiding in the girl's body. '

This is a new personality separated from the secondary personality.

Symptoms that are impossible to appear in real life happen strangely in dreams.

Xiang Ya quickly hid her shock, and she asked softly, "Usually, where would you run to hide after it comes out?"

A Lan looked confused, and said puzzled: "Just keep running, until the end of the sun, it will disappear."

Xiang Ya squeezed the rope in his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Have you tried to kill it?"

A Lan stood up tremblingly, she was a head and a half shorter than Xiang Ya, her limbs were thin, which made her head huge.

It looks like a little girl of elementary school age in reality.

The slowly growing giant snake has already spit out half of its body, but it just barely swelled up, swaying with the girl's movements.

Xiang Ya encountered such a strange scene for the first time. The one person and one snake in front of him perfectly interpreted the symbiotic relationship.

"Can it be killed? It's so fierce, it will kill me first."

Xiang Ya tried his best to ignore the cold eyes that snake eyes turned to stare at quietly.

She said steadily, "When did it first come out?"

A Lan recalled carefully, the sunlight below made her face orange.

"When Dad hits me, it will appear. The belt slaps my face and it hurts." She pursed her mouth tightly and said in a very low voice.

After finishing speaking, her body flinched, as if old memories attacked her again.

The rotten snake was about to fall off, but Xiang Ya didn't feel like it.

"Can kill, don't you realize that you are so weak, but you have never been bitten to death?"

"The snake runs fast, but you are still alive..."

"Have you ever wondered why?"

Little A Lan fell into deep thought, her face gradually showing panic, and she began to notice something unusual.

At this time, the giant snake fell off completely.

The sun standing below seemed to be steamed by the heat of the red earth, and quickly collapsed.

The orange-red flame seeped into the ground, making the ground even redder.

Xiang Ya fell steadily to the ground, the body of the rotten snake grew rapidly, and its greedy and raging eyes focused on the helpless little girl again.

A new sun appeared further ahead of the earth.

Only then did Xiang Ya wake up—it wasn’t that there were no giant snakes, but that whenever A Lan climbed up to the sun, snakes would grow out of her body, and the sun would melt, so she would return to the ground and start a new round of chasing .

It's a nightmare over and over again.

Little A Lan is the personality born when Li Gui was abused by the family, and this personality reborn a giant snake acting as a bully in the dream.

After Xiang Ya figured everything out, he guessed that if he wanted to get out of here, he would have to kill the giant snake.

No, it should be to help A Lan kill the fear in his heart, so that the cycle will stop.

Xiang Ya took A Lan's hand and ran forward, she said as she ran, "Have you thought about it? A giant snake can't kill you at all."

"Because it can never completely hurt you."

She took out the explosive charm that Mo Xinxin had stuffed into her from her backpack, and threw it behind her.

"Look, it's very fragile." Xiang Ya suddenly pulled the girl to stop, turned around and looked at the ground billowing with smoke, "You can try to kill it..."

The smelly Shekou rushed out of the thick smoke first, and saliva flowed all over the floor.

A Lan couldn't help shaking, and she acted like she wanted to run away.

Xiang Ya was sweating profusely from the heat, the giant snake could not harm the girl, but all non-human creatures in the dream could harm the sleep tester.

Now she is equivalent to risking her life to accompany a personality to resist the fear she was born with.

Xiang Ya took control of A Lan's body, stuffed the rope that could hurt people into the opponent's body, stood behind the girl, held the back of her hand with her hand, and started waving.

The sharp iron hook with a cold light was thrown to the snake letter spit out by the snake's mouth, and the hook was very solid.

The snake tail slapped the ground desperately in pain.

The smoke and dust surged again.

A Lan stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes.

Panting for air, Xiang Ya slowly let go of her hand, and said in a gentle voice, "Try again."

A Lan clenched the rope in her hand, turned her head and looked at Xiang Ya, and when she met that encouraging look, she paused.

Then she slowly moved forward a small step, and she pulled the rope slightly, the iron hook hooked deeper, almost piercing through the snake letter.

Panting for breath, Xiang Ya quietly looked at the little girl in front of her who was gradually fighting back against the giant snake.

'This personality is fairly easy to communicate with, wonder if the next personality will be like this...'

When she was thinking this way, the giant snake was rolled all over the ground by A Lan's hook.

The knife that Xiang Zhonghe left to Xiang Ya can always hurt things in the dream copy.

At this time, a strange scene happened again, those injured wounds gradually appeared on the little girl's body, and when she whipped the body of the giant snake, the wounds also returned to her body.

The giant snake was beaten to death by a rope that was so insignificant compared to it.

A Lan's whipping movements gradually slowed down, and more and more wounds appeared on his body.

When Xiang Ya saw it, his expression changed immediately.

'No, I guessed wrong, it can't be solved by killing fear...'

On the other side, A Lan had already stopped moving, and fell powerlessly to the ground, panting heavily and looking at the snake corpse on the ground.

The body slowly becomes a belt.

But A Lan smiled heartily for the first time, and turned her head to stare at Xiang Ya again.

She pushed the rope forward slightly, and tiny purple snakes began to grow from the bruise around the corner of her eye.

A Lan looked as unaware as before.

No, it should be said that she has long been used to such ignorance.

"I'll give it back to you." She pursed her lips and smiled softly, "Thank you for making me feel like I finally killed him for the first time."

Looking intently at the little snake that emerged again, Xiang Ya felt a chill run down his spine.

'Wrong guess... This dream is not like Jia Jia's dream before, killing fear can relieve her. '

‘This dream world can never escape. '

When Xiang Ya saw the giant snake and the little girl injured at the same time, he should have understood that the existence of the secondary personality was born out of escapism.

Destroying fear is equivalent to denying the meaning of A Lan's existence.

A Lan's survival mechanics don't allow her to do that.

It's a horrible symbiosis.

Xiang Ya didn't help her to escape.

A Lan may even use the natural weakness shown by her personality to disguise. The sleep tester will help her fight back against the big snake, but it is unknown whether she will be backstabbed by a weak little girl in the end.

But A Lan didn't hurt Xiang Ya now.

She just quietly returned the weapon to Xiang Ya.

The belt that fell on the ground quickly squirmed, extended, and bent into the shape of a door.

Opposite the door is a brand new scene, with lush and wild forests growing on the wet soil.

The exit of this world is at hand.

However, the snake body growing out of the corner of A Lan's eyes was getting longer and longer, and Xiang Ya was so sad that he couldn't move his legs.

Seeing Xiang Ya's expression, she knew that she had guessed that she was not acting ignorant.

"Just now, when you held my hand, I could actually take away your weapon and kill you." She pointed to Ya's hand, "but I don't want to do that."

"In the past, those people came in and didn't know where I was hiding. When the sun melted and I fell, they would think that they would help me kill the big snake."

"Stupid."

A Lan paused, and his tone changed, "But only you will let me kill it myself."

"And you were the first to climb to the top of the sun and find me."

"A long time ago I couldn't escape being beaten. I ran and ran all the way. I knew I had to imagine a huge thing for me to climb to avoid, so that the belt couldn't pull my face."

"Currently you are the only one who has the same thinking as me. I really like your instinct to find tall things to hide from."

"That survival instinct..."

"Well, just like me, when you are hurt, you will try your best to escape."

"So, I like you very much."

"It won't hurt you either."

A Lan stood up slowly, and gently patted away the dust that fell on her body.

"Leave this world quickly, look for other 'I', and help 'I' find the truth of death."

She smiled and waved goodbye to Ya, slowly narrowed her eyes, and looked at the orange sun in the distance again.

The thin body gradually began to run.

This time, she didn't stop, and ran away from Xiang Ya's side, heading towards the distant sun.

Xiang Ya looked back at the figure that was running away, as if he saw the scene of A Lan climbing to the top of the sun again and sitting there.

She would quietly hide from fear.

again and again……

Because that's why she exists.

And the various personalities encountered next will also have their own meanings of existence.

Xiang Ya wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and strode towards the exit.

The author has something to say:

In fact, Xiao A Lan has always known the relationship between the giant snake and her, she was pretending before~

(I was not satisfied with what I wrote just now. I thought about it, and I should revise it again. Little angels, refresh and read again~)
