I dreamt I was going to school on a small island with my friends, and then a female bandit hijacked the entire school. If we didn't listen to her, she would kill us. At first, it was fine; she didn't have that many demands, and we got used to it. But later, people started dying inexplicably, and only then did fear begin to slowly spread and ferment. (Many people died inexplicably, but I only remember two cases.) That time, my friend and I were walking downstairs in the school normally, heading to the field for morning exercises and to listen to the principal's speech. While listening to the principal, I turned around as usual to chat with my friend. But shortly after I turned, I heard a loud bang, followed by the screams of students and teachers. My friend stood there, dumbfounded. So I asked her what happened. She told me: The principal exploded. Me: ? So I pushed through the crowd to the front, and saw the principal all over the floor of the podium. (You know what I mean.) Another time, my friend and I were lining up at the cafeteria for food, and the female bandit walked up beside our line, watching us. Then she suddenly pulled out a gun and aimed it at a male student. The male student suddenly seemed to turn into a monkey, very nimbly grabbing the edge of the window with his hands and swinging out just like that. The female bandit followed closely behind, leaping onto the window, and fired a shot at the 'monkey' in mid-air. And so, that male student turned into a red firework between the two teaching buildings. (The female bandit seemed to be using a shotgun.) People were dying completely at random. Everyone was terrified and uneasy, and we all started keeping our heads down, hoping not to be the next one. Until one time, when we were lining up again, I turned around to chat with my friend as usual. Then the female bandit suddenly started handing out flyers on the side. Although it was baffling, everyone took one anyway—who would want to risk their life? So I reached out to take one too, but right as my hand was about to touch the flyer, I suddenly froze. I don't know why, I just froze. Then I saw the female bandit pull out her gun, and my body suddenly moved out of my control, flying under the eaves to hide, just like a monkey. But while my body was out of control, I suddenly remembered something: the female bandit had never stopped us from leaving the school? Many people had wanted to leave the school before, and the female bandit never stopped them. But we never saw any rescuers, nor did we ever see the people who left again. The school clearly occupied 90% of the island, yet we never heard their voices or saw any traces of their lives. It was as if they vanished into thin air the moment they left the school. Then, as if hearing my thoughts, my body started running outward. Sure enough, the female bandit didn't shoot at me again. The moment I left the school, I regained control of my body, but it was a bit different. I noticed my body was translucent. I was dead; I was now a soul. Then I looked at the female bandit. She made eye contact with me, as if she could look a soul in the eye, and then she signaled with her eyes for me to go behind the school. So I went. There, I saw some people like me. Behind the school was a tree, and there was a lot of fruit on the tree. Someone told me the female bandit said that as long as we ate the fruit, we could leave this island and go to the outside world. So I ate it. Because the fruit was sweet and delicious, I even ate a few extra. Then I headed to the beach, where I saw someone rowing a boat to pick me up. I got on the boat, and shortly after boarding, I wanted to turn around and look at the island, but I woke up before I could turn my head.

Nightmare: Former Company Becomes a Restaurant, Rescuing a Drunk Chubby Guy

My biological clock woke me up after I had a nightmare. My former company had turned into a restaurant, and all my colleagues were working there. One colleague was drinking with a chubby guy. The colleague must have been dizzy from drinking; he called me over and said, 'Whatever you do, don't let the chubby guy pay,' and then he passed out. I took the chubby guy to the door to hail a cab. He was also drunk and tried to rush out into the rain, but I pulled him back and asked him where he was going. At this point, the dream became incredibly exhausting as I tried to fill in his address for him. I used all my willpower to type it out, and finally, an A4 paper with the filled-in address appeared. After filling it out, I noticed the chubby guy was no longer drunk; he was completely sober.

School

I dreamed I was at school, but the school was out on the street and had no fences. I had also sneaked in my phone and computer. I dreamed my grades were terrible, and then my high school friend asked a lot of people to come tutor me, and she tutored me too. I just kept going to class, listening to them explain problems, going to class, listening to them explain problems. About three days passed, and then someone died. Everyone was very sad. Then I dreamed my friend brought a rice cooker to attend the funeral (the funeral was held in the classroom). Then I asked her for some salt to eat, and she actually gave me some, but the salt tasted awful. I asked her for sugar instead, and she gave me that too, and then I pretty much woke up.

Wandering Around School

I dreamed I was at school. A teacher assigned me a dorm room; my room was 525, the very last one. I went to the school canteen and lined up to buy food, but when it was my turn, the sandwich I liked was snatched by the person behind me, so I had to buy pizza. Then it started raining at the school. I wandered aimlessly around, only to accidentally stumble upon a monster. The black monster melted into the shadows, making it hard to spot. I forgot the rest.

Regrets

I dreamed I went back to school, dreamed I brought gifts back with me, dreamed my friends hadn't graduated yet, and my old teacher was still the homeroom teacher. I dreamed the few of us were playing around and having a great time, along with many people I didn't know. I dreamed that just as I was about to leave, I ran into the person I like. I saw him and his friends, I saw them find me, and then they dug me out. I thought they were going to laugh at me or something, but then I saw the person I like take me aside. He dawdled for a long time and then took me a little further away, and then he confessed his feelings to me. I said yes, and then the two of us hugged excitedly for a while before leaving. Then I asked some unimportant questions, and then I woke up.

Mysterious Girl Dealing Cards Online?

At that time, I dreamed I was a young girl (which I actually was back then), and I was being chased by bad guys. A bunch of guys in suits and leather shoes were running after me, and I just kept fleeing and fleeing.\nFirst, it was in my elementary school. Everyone looked like they had just finished class, and there were lots of students. I ran out of my classroom and just jumped straight down. Then I pulled out a card (I have no idea where I pulled it from), threw it hard into the air, pointed at it, and the card suddenly enlarged into a portal, which I then jumped into.\nThen the scene shifted and I was teleported to India, into one of those street-side stalls with a complex layout. I hid there, and along the way, I grabbed a few pieces of clothing to change into so I'd look more like a local, but the men in black still spotted me.\nThen I started running again, cutting straight through various stalls, leaving a mess wherever I passed. Finally, I dashed into a fabric shop, used a card to open another portal, and jumped in. This time I returned to the school, but in the stairwell. There were still a lot of people around, and I leaped out from the portal I had opened.\nHonestly, my language skills aren't great so it's hard to describe, but my memory stops right there, because that split second in the dream was just explosively beautiful.\nIt was the Indian sunlight filtering through the portal, me wearing a local Indian skirt, with all sorts of fabrics and yarn floating out around me. Combined with my leaping motion, the panic of my classmates, and the pursuit of the men in black behind me—who gets it? It was seriously so gorgeous it blew my mind. It was incredibly dreamy, completely satisfying my childhood wish of saving the world and embodying justice.\nThough I've dreamed of this school's location umpteen times already.

Together

I only remember the part of the dream about him. The dream was actually incredibly long; my first thought upon waking was realizing that the ratio of the content about him to the rest of the dream was something like 1:3.\n\nIn the dream, he and I were together. I worked, and he went to school, though there were never any scenes of me working. It was as if I just left the house and then came back having finished work. Absolutely everything happened at home. In the dream, I was also in the military, holding a minor officer rank, and he had gotten into that school. The two of us shared a rented apartment, splitting the rent fifty-fifty.\nIn the dream, we would chat together, lean against each other playing video games. He would keep me company while I worked at home, and I would keep him company in the study while he wrote his papers. Sometimes I would work very late and he wouldn't say anything; he would just wait for me at home.\n(Thinking about it now, he was so domestic in the dream.)\nHe and I would sleep in the same bed (there was no erotic content in the dream; the most intimate physical contact was hugging). My memory of the parts in bed isn't that deep, probably because I wasn't interested in that.\n\nIn the dream, he was very considerate of me. We were always texting. I would tell him my whereabouts at all times and was always taking pictures to send to him. Naturally, he did the same.\n\nDreams are always so perfect, so beautiful that they make you want to lose yourself in them. But I know it's fake. I don't really know him, nor should I harbor any superfluous expectations. That creates a silent pressure and would ruin my impression of him. If it's fake, let it be fake. At least I had a dream where I experienced this kind of relationship.

The Gang Boss and the Giantess: A Video Game Dream

I dreamt I was in a car, sitting in the back. There were people of all ages in the car; the person in the driver's seat was our boss, and we were a gang. The boss took us to a farm. That farm had appeared in my dreams before. I remembered that at the entrance of every enclosure where cattle and sheep were kept, there would be a small room. That room was red, dyed with human blood; many people had died here. Then I dreamt that our boss and I went into a school together. In that school, we were investigating something. Then, we split up to search all over the school for the resources we needed, though I kept following the boss. But we got separated from some people, and then they disappeared. When I turned my head, they had turned into NPCs; it seemed they were already dead. Then, I continued following the boss to find those puzzles. Then, in the first-floor lobby, we saw a giantess. That giant was truly massive; we could only see her hands and eyes, not her whole body. Her entire body seemed to be outside the building, so much so that we could only see her eyes and hands, though it wasn't to an absurd degree. We went down to the basement, and after scavenging what we needed, we quietly snuck back up to the second floor. But at a critical moment, the boss was suddenly discovered, and the few of us were all caught. Then I suddenly opened my eyes and woke up. I realized we were playing a game. Actually, all those experiences just now were just me playing a game with the boss. Then, the boss said, 'Ah, what a pity we didn't save the game.' But actually, I have a habit when playing games, which is to constantly keep saving. I had something running in the background, recording our saves at every moment, and then I copied that save file over to the boss. I said, 'Boss, I saved it. We can use my save file. You can roll back to my save, and we can keep playing.' And then I woke up.

The Mystery of the Teaching Building Wilderness and the Parallel Self

First, I was changing my bottoms in the restroom of the teaching building. I draped the pants I took off over the partition, looked at myself in the mirror above the sink: hair, face, top, bottoms, and then went out. I found the classrooms and corridors completely empty. Startled and bewildered, I walked further. Twos and threes of people appeared in the corridor. I asked them where this was, and they answered me: the wild.\nThe wild, in the wild. Is it the wild of the African savanna, or the wild of the Zhou dynasty's 'wild men'? Is it the wild of 'killing my spring in the wild', or the wild of 'the great hermit hides in the court, the middle hermit in the city, the minor hermit in the wild'? I suddenly looked down in panic and realized I had still worn the wrong bottoms, so I ran back to the restroom with all my might, only to find that the pants resting on the partition had already been swapped for the correct pair.\nAfter changing and going out, everything in the teaching building was back to normal. The bell rang; it was time for class.\n\nThen it was me sitting at my desk in the dorm, watching an instructional video on quantum physics: observation, existence, possibility, parallel universes. I turned my head and found myself in my high school uniform appearing under the opposite bed. My roommate panicked, asking what was wrong. I said it was nothing; I had also seen another me when I listened to my high school homeroom teacher talk about wave-particle duality.\nI asked myself, do you feel anything? I said, I have no memories, and therefore no feelings. I asked, then where do you come from? I answered, from a giant character 'Desolation'.\nThen it dawned on me: so it was a giant desolate wilderness! The origin is such, the destination knows neither rain nor shine, and the world is one. I said, then you should go back. The high school me looked into my eyes and said, why should it be me, why shouldn't you go back?\nSo I stood up and threw her out the window: dodging her pulling, prying apart her struggles, watching her fall. Under the ginkgo tree, she turned into a golden snub-nosed monkey.

Dreaming of Elite Animals Hunted: Maomao and Allies' Mysterious Escape

I had a dream. I dreamt that a group of bad animals was hunting down good animals. There were many elites among the good animals. In one sequence, a good animal named Maomao, skilled in martial arts, was chased and hunted down by a bad animal hunter while hauling cargo. After a scuffle, Maomao found himself at a disadvantage and quickly fled. Along the way, he drew the attention of Youyou and its micro-sprites, who collect energy, affection, and power. He also knocked open the door to the house of Hagel, the bow-hunter. But Hagel was a ranged fighter, and all the arrows he fired were dodged by the hunter. Over the course of a struggle lasting more than ten minutes, the hunter's stamina gradually waned. Finally, seizing the moment he landed on his own cargo, Maomao hastily overturned the cart and made his escape.

Dream Exploration: Recovering a Body in a Ruined Goddess Temple, Braving the Underworld to Uncover the Mysteries of Life and Death

A ruined goddess temple, covering a massive area. Upon entering, although there was a statue of the goddess, it lacked divine consciousness. While a group of girls and I were wandering around and digging randomly, we found the sealed body of the goddess. The body was in a large chest not far from the statue. After opening the chest, the goddess's body returned to its place like a soul possessing it, but the head was sealed elsewhere. We opened an area map that looked like a video game map, and then searched for the location of the goddess's head based on intuition. At this time, a group of men arrived. The leader felt like he was on the same tier as the goddess. Our intuition told us that he was the one who had beheaded her, so some of us distracted him while others continued searching for the head. The people searching for the head split into two groups: one dug into the ground, and the other destroyed surface structures. After searching for a long time (it seemed we gained magic powers after the goddess's body was restored, allowing us to move objects), I found a hoe. To avoid drawing the men's attention, I used magic to pull the hoe over. I then arrived at a place that looked like a suppression site and directed the hoe to dig. It dug for a long time with no news on my end, but the other group found the goddess's head while destroying a vertical tower. As soon as the seal was broken, the goddess sent us out of the temple. I arrived at a place like a bus stop—a canopy supported by two wooden pillars. There were three people under the canopy: a living soul, two dead souls, and me. I didn't belong to either category; I was neither a living soul nor a dead soul. It seemed that after the goddess's soul was restored, I could go anywhere with a legitimate status. The living soul was male, holding a pass in his hand (like a small stone carved with a Naruto symbol, only the size of a thumb). After he took it out, the canopy seemed to pass an authentication check and began moving rapidly as a whole. It reached the edge of a cliff and plunged straight down, seemingly arriving in the underworld. It was incredibly huge down there. The living soul and I went to the information desk. He seemed to be looking for someone (I've forgotten who), but his aura of a living soul was very obvious. The people at the desk were about to call someone to arrest him, but he presented the pass, so they told him to go to the second floor to search. I seemed to be purely sightseeing. There were many escalators in that hall. We took an escalator to the second floor, and as soon as we got up there, it felt like the Huaqiangbei electronics market, with stalls selling all kinds of products. There were many young people inside, and I sensed that they had all died of sudden cardiac arrest. After reaching the second floor, the living soul and I separated. I went further ahead to a place like a restaurant. There were quite a few people eating inside. I didn't seem to order any food; I just sat there to rest my feet. A few people at my table were chatting, so out of curiosity, I asked them which generation of iPhone they had updated to. One guy said that phones update too fast in the underworld now, and he didn't even know what generation it was anymore. Others were complaining about how quickly phones were replaced. Later, it seems I went to another place, but after recording the previous parts, I can't remember the rest.

Earth's Destruction: The Angels' Immortality Scam and Cultivating a Lonely New Home

I had a dream last night that the Earth was about to be destroyed. A group of angels disguised as humans chose me and sent me to an alien planet, which was the new home they had selected for humanity. The angels had already replicated some buildings on the planet, but they lacked someone to reclaim and cultivate the land, so they chose me. I was to cultivate the planet all alone for 144 years, until the Earth was destroyed 144 years later and all of humanity migrated over. To make me willing to come to this alien planet and cultivate it, the angels secretly orchestrated a series of events that caused conflicts and friction between me and the people around me, severing my emotional ties with others on Earth so that I would have no attachments left and could go to the alien planet without looking back. But how could an ordinary human live for 144 years? So the angels told me that although I had to farm in solitude for 144 years, they were also giving me a gift: immortality. At first, I was quite happy to hear this news; immortality was something I had always desired, and trading 144 years for infinite life seemed like a pretty good deal. But then it suddenly occurred to me: if the angels could manipulate me and sever my feelings for Earth, then my desire for immortality might also have been implanted by them. The angels seemed to wear a somewhat sly smile, silently acknowledging this. These angels were very interesting; they didn't have the wings and halos of traditional angelic imagery, nor did they have divine faces. In appearance, they were completely ordinary people wearing ordinary clothes. Not only did they look like humans, but they also behaved like human corporate drones. My first day on the alien planet was quite lively; the angels had set up some Earth-like buildings, including a fast-food restaurant, where they ate and chatted. By the second day, the angels were gone, leaving only one manager who was packing up and getting ready to leave, telling me that dropping me off meant their task was complete and they were clocking out from work. See you in 144 years.

A Security Guard Holds a Concert, and It Turns Out to Be Jacky Cheung?

I just had a dream where I was eating peanuts with some security guards. There were quite a few of them, and they said the best job in China is being a security guard. Later, one of the guards went to hold a concert, and it turned out he was Jacky Cheung.

The Almost Forgotten Little Raccoons

The dream was very long. I woke up a few times in the middle, or maybe I didn't wake up at all, because I clearly remember writing the dream down in WeChat, but when I woke up, there was nothing in WeChat, which was really annoying. I only remember fragments. In the dream, I was in front of a dim shrine. It was a shrine built on a mountain, with a beautiful environment and lots of vegetation. The setting felt very much like Japan, though the dream never explicitly stated it was Japan. At the entrance of that shrine, there were three little raccoons. The three of them were holding three boxes, which they opened and closed in a rhythmic pattern. As long as you put a coin inside when a box opened, the coin would disappear the next time it opened, and a pastry would appear inside. There were matcha-flavored and red bean-flavored pastries, and they were incredibly delicious. So I just stayed there farming pastries and eating non-stop. There was another fragment where I was on a bus. I was sitting at the very back, recommending those raccoon pastries to others.
