MTL - Doomsday Begins with a Nightmare-v2 Chapter 1059 Nightmare in the Mirror

Falkland Islands.

The village where the Apu family lives is relatively peaceful.

There are not many people here, and there are many temples here. The great event of many years of practice protected this place when the nightmare struck.

Although all had to rely on, and even be ruled by, the local temple, life was miserable.

But at least the situation is much stronger than in other areas.

"It is said that some places have become no-man's land and are dead."

Apu's house was lit with candles, and the family was sitting in the humble house, having dinner.

Because all the living materials have to be donated to the temple on a weekly basis, Apu and his family lived a tight life.

On everyone's plate, there were only some boiled potatoes, pickled beans, and some leafy greens.

That's all.

Due to prolonged malnutrition, Apu looks thinner than girls of the same age.

Sixteen years old, looks younger than her actual age.

It was Apu's father who spoke just now.

He is the opposite of Apu. He is only in his forties, but he looks like he is in his fifties or sixties, with short hair, half of which is gray, dark skin, rough palms, one eye has been lost, and he looks cloudy. Like a frosted lens.

Apu's mother groaned, but the woman had nothing to do with her current life.

Only Apu's six-year-old brother is still happy, but this kind of happiness is based on innocence. After a few years, it is estimated that the whole family will only sigh.

The premise is that they can still live to that word.

The sky outside is already extremely dark. Because of the geographical location, it is actually very late at night in this season. Don't look at it, it is just dim, not completely dark, but it is already past eight o'clock in the evening.

After dinner, the family does their own thing.

Looking out of the window, there was sporadic candlelight in the village.

As for electricity?

Don't even think about it.

After the nightmare completely came, there was a complete power outage.

In other words, the official here has completely stopped, almost in name only.

It is the temples all over the place who are really in charge.

After the nightmare came, the masters in the temple seemed to have a way to resist the dream demon, and at this stage, this was absolute hard power.

No one dared to go against the masters.

Don't say it's right, even if you don't dare to be disrespectful in your words.

If you don't respect him, you won't get the protection of the masters.

Without shelter, after falling into a dream, he will be attacked by the dream demon, and the end will be extremely miserable.

So here, the masters in the temple are the most honorable existence.

From Apu's house you can see the big temple in the distance.

Even at night, the lights are brilliant.

As if around, only that one place is bright, and only that place is safe.

"Mom, I heard that Aling's family went back to the temple to spend the night. They said it was the safest place." Apu said to his mother at this time.

Mom nodded.

That's right, at this stage, the big temple is indeed the safest.

"No terrible dream demon dares to approach the big temple!"

"But why can't we go?" Beside him, Apu's younger brother Soul asked. Mom understands this truth and Apu understands it, but his six-year-old brother doesn't quite understand it.

My brother doesn't know that people are different from birth.

Some people have golden spoons, and some people are destined to suffer.

In the past, there may be a little possibility to change the class and change the life, but now, unless you have an adventure in the nightmare world, gain a powerful power, or control some kind of terrifying dream demon.

Otherwise, if you want to change your life against the sky, the possibility is zero.

Minimize the time you spend dreaming.

The same goes for Apple's family.

They have an alarm clock.

Dad is the mainstay of the family, so Dad goes to bed first. From about eight o'clock to twelve o'clock, the rest of the family starts to sleep. At four o'clock in the morning, mom will sleep with dad instead, while Apu and his younger brother can stay there. Sleep till dawn.

Because if you encounter a dream demon, you can see the clue from the sleeping expression and breathing. If you find something wrong, you must wake up your family immediately.

This avoids some death.

These days, Apu's family came here like this.

Although they have already paid their offerings to the temple according to the week, it is still right to be careful.

For example, the Aqin family in the village has just finished the funeral.

The Aqin family also turned in the offerings every week, but their youngest son still died.

Although the masters came to see it, they said it was a natural death.

But who can believe?

Do you think everyone is stupid?

But there is no way to find a result in this matter, even if it was killed by the dream demon, no one has any evidence, because this matter has to be the masters in the big temple?

No one wants to be this early bird.

So, in the end, you have to be careful yourself.

"Mom, I don't want to sleep!"

It's already twelve o'clock.

Apu's younger brother didn't want to sleep yet. He kept tugging at the corner of his mother's clothes with fear in his eyes.

"How can you not sleep, although, you will enter that terrible place when you sleep, but with your mother and sister accompanying you, what are you afraid of?"

The mother experienced comforting the younger brother.

But today's younger brother is obviously abnormal, he is unwilling to sleep, and he also said that he had seen a terrible thing in a dream.

"Where is there anything scary, we are together every day, why haven't I seen it?" Apu retorted his brother for the first time.

She felt that her brother was simply ignorant.

"Really, I really saw it. That thing is hidden in the corner of our house. Sometimes, it will hide behind you."

The younger brother's words were obviously scary.

Apu heard goosebumps all over his body.

hiding behind yourself?

is it possible?

"Brother, don't talk nonsense, go to bed quickly."

Apu said something.

As for the mother, she obviously didn't believe it at all, she just thought it was a child's nonsense.

Finally, Mom and Apu coaxed the younger brother to lie down on the bed.

"Apu, you should sleep too."

"Ok mom, good night!"

"Good night, baby!"

App fell asleep.

This is not the first time she has entered the nightmare world. For her, the nightmare world is both familiar and unfamiliar.

She is familiar because she dreams every day.

Unfamiliar is because she has never left her room in the nightmare world.

This is the rule of mom and dad.

It is said that it was the masters in the temple who gave some kind of exorcism, both on the door of their house and on the bedroom door, to prevent the monsters from the nightmare world from entering.

So every time after falling into a dream, Apu will do his own thing in the house.

Sometimes I will be in a daze, sometimes I will chat with my brother and my mother and father, or I will secretly look outside from the window, trying to figure out what is outside.

But most of the time, it was pitch black outside, and nothing could be seen.

There might be some outlines of the house, but they were just outlines, like urine stains from my brother's bedwetting as a child.

Apu has already thought about it today.

She counts telling stories with her brother.

Telling and listening to stories is one of the most effective ways for them to pass the time.

Of course Mom said she'd find a way to get some candles so they could read in the house.

"younger brother?"

Apu started looking for his brother.

Usually the younger brother will wait for her in bed.

Mainly because his little brother is very timid. Every time he falls into a dream, he will shrink into the quilt, and sometimes he will shiver.

In this case, you need a good coax.

Mom didn't have a dream this time, so Apu had to do the job of coaxing his brother this time.

She walked to her brother's room and saw that the quilt on the bed was bulging, and she was shaking.

Apu smiled and prepared to go over and lift the quilt.

She walked over, reached out and grabbed the quilt, at this moment she suddenly wanted to tease the disciple.

So instead of lifting it, he put his hand into the quilt.

Sure enough, he touched a small hand.

At this moment, Apu suddenly heard someone whispering to her sister.

She was stunned.

The voice came from behind, the voice of my brother.

Apu immediately looked back.

He found his brother hiding behind the door and looked at the bed in horror.

Ap was stunned.

The younger brother is hiding behind the door. Who is on the bed?

A coolness came from Apu's hand.

She found that the little hand she was touching seemed to be very cold.

like the hands of the dead.

In an instant, Apu got goosebumps. She wanted to scream, but she remembered what her mother and father told her.

In the nightmare world, no matter how scared, no matter how scared, you can't scream.

Because you don't know what's going to happen after you scream, and nine times out of ten, something scarier will happen.

Apu was about to cry.

She wanted to pull her hand back, but something in the quilt was holding her hand tightly at the moment.

It looked like he didn't want her to go.

That's the trouble.

At this moment, Apu's mind was blank, she could only hold back her tears and pray that someone could save her.

correct.

Isn't dad dreaming?

Apu suddenly thought of this, and there was a glimmer of hope in his heart.

She turned back and gestured to her brother, and whispered to his brother to find his father.

The younger brother understood, and at this moment he mustered up the courage to run out from behind the door.

Apu is still trying to draw his hands.

Finally, I don't know if she succeeded in her prayer, or what happened, but she actually pulled out her hand.

Without hesitation, she turned and ran.

I almost tripped because I was so nervous.

Running to the corridor, Apu immediately ran in the direction of Dad.

Now, Dad is her only hope, and she can only feel safe when she sees Dad.

Suddenly, she heard her brother's screams.

There was fear in his voice.

Apu was even more frightened. She almost stumbled to her father's room, and then he saw her brother looking at the room in horror.

Inside the house, Dad's head hung on the door frame, as if he was smiling at them.

This stimulus is too great.

Apu couldn't hold back and screamed.

Immediately, she reacted and couldn't call.

Dad is dead!

Apparently killed by something, perhaps, the thing on his brother's bed.

Apu looked at his brother, summoned up the courage to pick him up, comforted him, and hurriedly ran out.

But at the gate, Dad's headless corpse stood there blankly.

At this moment, he is waving at them.

Apu Hun'er was almost scared.

She turned her head and looked at the toilet.

He immediately hugged his brother and hid in the toilet, closed the door, and locked it.

But even through a door, Apu didn't feel the slightest security.

The younger brother stopped crying at this time. He asked if his father was dead?

Apu didn't know how to answer.

Because she herself doesn't know anything.

Now her mind is confused, and she can only breathe with fear.

But I was afraid of making a sound, so I could only try my best to suppress it.

Now Apu himself is full of doubts.

What exactly happened?

Why does a safe home become like this?

The person on the bed must be a ghost. It killed Dad, but why does Dad's head laugh, why does Dad's body block the door and prevent them from going out?

Apu feels that he has not collapsed yet, entirely because of his younger brother.

The younger brother has to rely on her.

The duty of her sister made her only strong.

She suddenly thought of something and hurried to the side. She remembered that the toilet had a mop for self-defense.

If ghosts come in, all she can do is work hard.

"Sister, I'm so scared."

My brother wanted to cry again at this time.

Apu could only hold his younger brother in his arms and comforted him in a whisper. At the same time, he also learned from his younger brother what happened to his younger brother after he fell into a dream.

From the perspective of his younger brother, after falling into a dream, he looked at the corner of the wall.

Because the last time, my brother saw something terrifying in the corner.

Only this time, it's more direct.

The figure in the corner actually came out.

The younger brother was frightened, ran off the bed, and hid under the bed.

The thing did not pursue, but got on the bed and hid under the quilt.

The younger brother ran carefully behind the door, and after that, Apu came in in a dream, and the previous scene happened.

Fortunately, my brother reminded him at a critical time, otherwise, if Apu lifted the quilt, what would happen, no one knew.

The two of them depended on each other, hiding in the toilet and waiting for a few minutes.

To them, these few minutes are almost like years.

Suddenly, my mother's screams came from outside.

App panicked.

She forgot that her mother would fall asleep later.

So, mother has fallen into a dream?

And, caught by a ghost.

Otherwise, there would not be such a scream.

Apu was about to rush out immediately.

But at this time, the mother's screams outside were mixed with words.

"Apu, hide with your brother, don't, come out, don't..."

The latter words are gone.

Because my mother's screams were gone.

The outside suddenly changed from noisy to eerily quiet.

Tears flowed freely from Apu's eyes. She was now wrapped in fear and self-blame, and she couldn't breathe.

Mom is dead?

Definitely is.

Same as dad.

I should go out and save my mother.

But her mother wouldn't let her out.

Although Apu is young, she knows that facing this kind of weirdness, if she goes out, not only will she not be able to save her mother, but herself and her brother will also die.

If you hide, there may be a chance of survival.

Now Apu didn't dare to make a sound, she hoped that the ghosts outside would leave after killing people, so that she and her brother could survive.

But this possibility is relatively small.

Because the ghost must know that they are hiding in the bathroom.

The younger brother remained silent.

Apu was worried and lowered his head to ask, but the younger brother whispered that there was a big brother behind him who was laughing with him.

Apu's head buzzed.

Could it be that a ghost has come in?

To know that behind them, there is only a vanity mirror, besides, there is nothing.

By the way, the mirror!

She remembered that the master in the monastery gave them black cloth to seal all the mirrors in the nightmare world.

How did your brother see that?

Apu looked back.

She did see the mirror.

The black cloth on the mirror fell to the ground at some point.

The bathroom was originally pitch-black, but at this moment, a trace of light came out from the mirror.

In addition, there was indeed a person in the mirror, looking at them with a smile.

This man was wearing a black sweater, and there seemed to be a knife hanging from his waist. The knife was very simple. Although it was hidden in a sheath, he could still feel the danger of this knife.

Apu knows that it is impossible for normal people to be in the mirror.

Except ghosts.

The man in the mirror is a ghost.

Apu protected his younger brother behind him for the first time.

She thought about it.

If she were to die, she would be the first to die.

Even if her legs are weak from fright, she must protect her brother.

At this moment, she looked at the man in the mirror.

It can be described as the stubbornness of the weak.

The man in the mirror did not move, but looked at the pair of siblings curiously.

This kind of compatriotism seems to remind him of something.

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the bathroom.

From far to near.

Finally, the footsteps slowly stopped at the door.

It can be imagined that there is a person standing at the door of the bathroom at this moment.

who is it?

Besides ghosts, who else could be there.

App is going crazy.

In the current situation, there are wolves in front and tigers behind, the outside is very dangerous, and the bathroom is not safe.

Simply, all die.

She brushed her eyes and laid them flat, you two ghosts, what do you like.

Next, Apu heard a strange noise.

And a 'roll'.

This is not the local language of the Falkland Islands, but Chinese.

Coincidentally, Apu was originally from China and immigrated later, but the language and culture have been preserved.

So she could clearly hear the word 'go away'.

The next moment, there was a crackling sound, as if something had been destroyed, like a rhino ramming through the house.

Apu didn't dare to open her eyes, and at the same time, she covered her brother's eyes with her hands.

I was afraid that my brother would see something terrible.

Even if you want to die, you should die peacefully, not in fear and fright.

But the death that Apu was waiting for did not come.

The noise soon disappeared.

There was silence again all around.

But this time the silence was different from before.

When she dared to open her eyes, she realized that the door of the toilet had been knocked open at some point.

And it's torn apart.

It can be seen that the force and destructive power of the thing that hit the door is amazing~www.novelbuddy.com~ Then she saw the body on the ground.

That's a ghost.

Must be a ghost.

Humans don't have that pale, cyan skin, this thing is like a peeled frog, no eyes, no nose, only a mouth on the head, no lips, and sharp teeth exposed.

But no matter how terrifying it is, this ghost is also dead, a real death.

Because the opponent's heart was pierced.

This should be the ghost outside, the one who killed Mom and Dad.

What about the ghost in the mirror?

Apu looked over, and the mirror returned to its original state, only vaguely showing her shadow and that of her brother, and the man before was gone.
