An Adventure Story
I dreamt that a partner and I were in an abandoned building. I was preparing to go from the first-floor lobby to the top floor, but when I went over to look, I saw that the middle of the building was hollowed out, as if it had vanished into thin air.
Then we just jumped straight up, but as soon as I got up there, two dark shadows attacked. I suddenly felt a bit powerless, so I immediately took my teammate and started running away, with the shadows in hot pursuit. After fighting for two rounds, the shadows just grabbed me. I was tied up in a van, but my vision wasn't blocked.
I saw the van drive into the mountains, passing through a giant stone gate. Behind the stone gate was a nearly 45-degree downhill slope and extremely high iron railings.
After a while, we reached the destination. Someone got me out of the van and threw me into a place.
There were many people here. I observed their expressions; they didn't look angry or sad, just like they were trying hard to figure something out.
I went up and asked, only to find out this was an escape room, and they needed to escape from here. I stepped forward to help think of a solution and opened a room. In that room, you couldn't touch anything, but you could take things that dropped automatically—they could save your life at a critical moment. I didn't know why either.
The room looked very small, but there were many iron shelves and junk boxes filled with various things, making it very hard to walk through. When we finally made it through, we looked up and saw a gigantic clown holding a baseball bat.
I took the lead, turned my head, and ran. The clown chased after us madly, sending people away with one strike of the bat each. Everyone finally realized something was wrong and started shouting loudly for help, but no one came to save us, and no one paid any attention.
Halfway through my escape, I suddenly saw that I had returned to the starting point, the very first building.
I needed to go upstairs. This time I was very cautious. As soon as I went up, I started fighting back and successfully drove away the dark shadows, but as soon as the shadows left, I returned to the starting point again.
Could it be that I had to go with the dark shadows? But suddenly, an extra piece of memory appeared in my mind, the memory of the people who attacked me: they were two young girls. I didn't know why they wanted to kidnap me. They knew I was strong, so they started collecting items before I arrived. They had two items: one could make me weak, which explained why I had no strength at the very beginning, and the other could hide them. But they felt it wasn't enough, so they found a monster in the building, killed it, and got an item that could enhance themselves. Then they hid.
They were actually hiding above the lobby. Because there were no lights, it was very dark. One of them could control water, and the other could control gravity, making the water float on the ceiling while they walked on the water's surface to observe me. After kidnapping me, one of them actually left the van because they had an argument. I couldn't even tell why they were arguing; it seemed to be because no Sichuan peppercorns were added during a meal? Or because someone didn't pass a tissue? Anyway, the reason for the argument was ridiculous. Then the other girl just threw me straight into the room.
Then I woke up from the memory. This time, I went upstairs and caught the two girls. I made them drive in front and take me to the stone gate, while my teammates and I followed in our car. This time, as soon as we entered the stone gate, the two girls suddenly sped off in their car. Just as I was about to chase them, I saw a little baby on the ground, looking like it had just come out of the belly. I couldn't bear to leave the baby alone, so I got out of the car and carried it away. (This was my first time holding a baby, and I was super incredibly careful.)
But as soon as I picked up the baby, I saw that my teammates were all gone, and the car was gone too. Then the stone gate seemed about to open. I immediately took the baby and hid. The baby didn't cry or fuss at all, just wriggled around in my arms.
Then I saw a familiar car come in; it was the two girls' car, followed by my car. The two cars came in one after the other and just drove away. I was completely stunned, and in that moment of distraction, I returned to the very beginning of the escape room. I started solving puzzles to enter the room again, but this time, a girl, for some unknown reason, relied on me heavily, treating me like the boss and following me closely, as if she would die if she didn't. Then I survived with the girl. But for some reason, the whole room suddenly collapsed. I saw that everyone was perfectly fine. Outside the room was a lawn with many chairs set up, and someone was sitting in the very front chair facing us.
It was my geography teacher, although in the dream he claimed to be a language teacher. He told us to write our recent experience into an essay, so I did. The title was 'The Balcony'. It was roughly about me looking at the scenery from a balcony, seeing mountains, water, villages, and wisps of smoke, and then connecting it to the experience just now, writing it as something I saw, and then ending it. After handing it in, I just hid, waiting until the teacher graded my essay before getting closer to everyone. It turned out the teacher was actually reading it out loud on the spot. My friend even said I had gone off-topic and might only get a passing grade. I said it was fine, I wasn't afraid of failing, and then continued listening to the teacher read my essay, while thinking to myself that if I had known, I would have gotten closer so I could hear what my ridiculous classmates had written. As soon as the teacher finished reading, I woke up.
