Although the masquerade ball at Haiyin Castle had a set theme, it did not actually limit the range of roles that tourists could play; this had led to the fact that in the photos circulating on the Internet, where there were scenes such as the Monkey King and an Archangel drinking Coke together at the party from time to time.
Xiao Yao was not so bad-natured. Since he planned to participate in the Western-themed masquerade party at Haiyin Castle, it would be nice to play the roles of Western monsters and use their special professions. He was also looking forward to dressing up Old Dog Bai in a Western image. After all, this guy’s facial features were very suitable for playing a Western monster.
Bai Ju held his boyfriend in one hand and held his mobile phone in the other hand as he searched for photos of the Haiyin Castle theme masquerade party on the Internet. After not looking for long, he glanced up in boredom and put the phone aside.
Most of the Western monsters were a group of monsters related to the church, more or less like humans… Occasionally, two non-humans were found, one was a Western dragon that looked like a lizard, and the other was a three-headed dog from hell. No matter which one it was, in Old Dog Bai’s aesthetic concept, they were all ugly – Old Dog Bai was a well-behaved Chinese dog monster, he couldn’t appreciate the hairy ones with scales, and he also couldn’t appreciate the ones with one body and three heads. After taking a look, he was too lazy to find other references.
Especially after seeing the three-headed dog.
Old Dog Bai thought about the way he had three heads, baring his teeth and drooling, and he got goose bumps all over his body. Huh… No wonder Yaoyao didn’t let him play his old profession and insisted that he play a vampire.
Xiao Yao, who was remembered by Old Dog Bai… was half asleep and half awake at this moment. He was about to finish absorbing the spiritual food. His body felt sore and swollen, and his head was a little heavy. For a moment, many things in the past gathered and dispersed in his dream like phantoms. They were not real but made people emotional for no reason.
Bai Ju was half lying beside Xiao Yao. When Xiao Yao began to frown uneasily, he noticed this abnormality.
The situation was a bit strange.
Bai Ju moved a little closer, then simply turned over and pressed on Xiao Yao, controlling his hands and feet steadily to prevent him from kicking or using spells.
This was… being possessed by a nightmare.
Old Dog Bai was a little worried. It was not like he hadn’t seen this situation before. In the past, there were villagers who brought children possessed by nightmares to the mountain temple to ask him for help. Most of them were caused by evil spirits or entanglements in past lives. Moreover, children were psychic and were more likely to see things they shouldn’t see than adults, and they were also more likely to have such problems when they were frightened.
But Xiao Yao obviously didn’t have this problem. He had never closed his yin-yang eyes since he was a child, and he had seen everything he should and shouldn’t see; evil spirits couldn’t haunt him, and he had lived to this age, even if he didn’t drink all the Mengpo soup when he was reincarnated, he shouldn’t be able to remember things from his previous life.
Unable to wake Xiao Yao up rashly, Bai Ju lowered his head slightly and gently put his forehead on Xiao Yao’s brow.
Listening to the heart sound was not enough… He wanted to try to invade Xiao Yao’s sea of consciousness to see what he was dreaming about.
The moment the mental tentacles probed into Xiao Yao’s mind, Bai Ju’s whole body couldn’t help but tense up for a moment, and then he controlled himself not to pinch Xiao Yao’s wrist hard.
…It was a heart-wrenching wail.
Chaotic light and shadows intertwined in Xiao Yao’s mind. There were mountain flowers and blue sky, but in between there were also dark shadows and blood that could not be ignored. Among the countless complex and noisy sounds, there were also cries of grief.
He seemed to see a small figure kneeling in a pool of blood, crying towards the sky.
Different ages, different clothes, even different eras… flashed by in the misty white fog.
Bai Ju pursed his lips and used his spiritual sense to push away the fog to find Xiao Yao’s own consciousness that was lost in it.
Fortunately, Xiao Yao himself had experienced such nightmares several times, and despite the numerous illusions, he was able to regain his consciousness; so not long after Bai Ju’s spiritual consciousness invaded, he found the familiar figure of the young man in Xiao Yao’s mind.
The young man in a white shirt shuttled through the fog, as if he was looking for a gap between the phantoms; and the moment when Bai Ju’s consciousness hit him, the young man’s expression brightened slightly, and then a feeling of joy rushed into Bai Ju’s mind. The scene in front of him shook slightly, and the nightmare that had troubled Xiao Yao for a while completely dissipated, as if it was gathered together by something.
Bai Ju slowly opened his eyes, propped himself up, loosened his hand on Xiao Yao’s wrist, gently touched the top of the young man’s head, and called him in a low voice: “Yaoyao… Yaoyao? Are you awake? Do you feel okay?”
Xiao Yao’s eyelids trembled slightly, and he blinked twice with difficulty before slowly opening his eyes; seeing Bai Ju so close, he was stunned for a moment, and asked puzzledly: “Brother Bai… what’s wrong?”
Seeing that there was nothing unusual about him, Bai Ju turned over and sat up: “I’m glad you’re okay… You may have had a nightmare just now.”
Xiao Yao moved his fingers and found that his palm was a little numb; he raised his hand and saw that there was a circle of red marks on his wrist, which was obviously caused by pinching; the imprint was very conspicuous on his cold white skin, and he looked as if he had been ravaged by someone.
Xiao Yao opened his mouth: “…Bai, Brother Bai.”
Bai Ju was still thinking about what Xiao Yao had dreamed of. He was suddenly called and was a little stunned: “Ah?”
While Xiao Yao looked at Bai Ju with a subtle expression: “That… is…”
Bai Ju didn’t quite understand what Xiao Yao wanted to express. After thinking about it, he reached out to touch the kettle on the bedside table: “Ah… just tell me whatever you want. Are you feeling uncomfortable? There is warm water. Do you want some?”
“Water, uh,” Xiao Yao was about to say that he didn’t need to drink water, but he paused and found that his throat was indeed a little dry, so he took the cup handed over by Bai Ju, “Thank you, Brother Bai.”
After taking a sip of boiled water at just the right temperature, Xiao Yao considered it and felt that Bai Ju had not evolved to the stage of wanting to play with bondage/binding prey, but it should be okay to talk about it in advance, so he said: “That’s it. If you want to play with tying in the future… remember to use a tie or other softer cloth and tie it loosely for my sake.” Otherwise, if this old dog took too long, his hands would be crippled after being tied for too long.
Bai Ju: “???”
Bai Ju didn’t quite understand: “Why should I tie you up when playing with you?”
Xiao Yao scratched his cheek with his fingers, feeling a little embarrassed, but after all, this was not a topic that they needed to avoid, so he motioned for Bai Ju to lean over and whispered: “Just do some fancy things when making love.”
Bai Ju: “…()”
Bai Ju’s heart suddenly jumped three feet high, and he felt terrible. He then covered his face with his ears red, hesitating: “…um, um…”
Xiao Yao drank the warm water in three or two gulps, handed the cup back to Bai Ju, and poked him: “Don’t just um… do you understand?”
Bai Ju nodded like a chick pecking at rice, poured him another glass of water, and said in a voice like a mosquito humming: “I know, I know…”
Both were male creatures, and although Old Bai dog was embarrassed to admit that he felt a little excited after imagining that scene, there was no need to deny it hypocritically, so he could only respond vaguely.
