Chapter 1: Ordinary deep drift, sudden abnormality.
I'm Xiang Yang, an ordinary deep drifting girl, her appearance is not good, her personality is introverted, she is not sociable, and there are only a handful of friends around me who can talk and chat. I live a step-by-step life every day, get up in the morning, finish breakfast, take the subway to work, work diligently, and dedicate all my energy to a few taels of silver. Then get off work on time, take the bus back to the rental house, cook and cook by yourself, brush your mobile phone after dinner, and then go to bed, and the day passed like this. An ordinary person can no longer be an ordinary person.
However, a strange thing happened to Xiang Yang recently, that is, she often dreams, for a simple person like her, she rarely dreamed in the past 30 years, and basically slept until dawn. It's been dreaming one dream after another lately, and it's just so weird. And the scenes and characters in these dreams are different every time, there are scenes in real life, there are places that have not been, there are people you know, and there are people you don't know, the only thing that is the same is that snakes will appear in each dream.
Why did he have such a strange dream, and he dreamed of a snake that he was more afraid of, Xiang Yang couldn't understand, he hadn't read the relevant content recently, and he hadn't encountered a snake at ordinary times, why did he suddenly dream of a snake? So Xiang Yang looked it up on the Internet, and seeing a snake in a dream usually represents fear, insecurity, or potential danger in his heart. The snake is an ancient symbol that can represent deception, betrayal, trickery, or sexual desire. The snake can also symbolize wisdom, transformation, and regeneration. The specific interpretation needs to be analyzed in combination with the behavior, color, size and other details of the snake in the dream.
Xiang Yang carefully read the last paragraph: the specific explanation needs to be combined with the behavior, color, size, etc. of the snake in the dream. Slowly falling into contemplation, it was about a dream that I had half a year ago. One day in the old house where we were staying, I was fetching water from the well and pouring it into the kitchen tank. The kitchen has a stove and a storage table made of wooden planks with lots of bottles and cans on it. I walked back and forth several times with water, but I didn't notice anything unusual around. Then my dad came back from outside, and suddenly found two big snakes lying under the kitchen storage counter, one black and one white, entangled together, so my dad picked up the broom and hit the white snake that was closer, and the black snake immediately wrapped around when he saw this, protecting the white snake and letting the white snake slip away first. Seeing that the white snake climbed out of the kitchen window to the patio where I had just fetched water, and then climbed out along the stairs by the patio, the black snake saw that the white snake had gone, and quickly slipped away in that direction. During this time, the two big snakes did not launch any attack, and when they saw that people were beating them, they quickly ran away.
Then I thought of a recent dream, which was also a summer in my hometown, and this year was relatively dry, and the seedlings planted in the rice fields were about to wither. So I went out at night to collect the water and went into the fields. Originally, the small water path near my field was so small that it could only fit one foot, and the water could only hold a little bit, even if the water was stopped overnight, it would not be enough to irrigate the field. However, the small waterway in the dream became a small river, and the water became deeper and deeper. I was standing in the creek, and at first the water was up to my ankles, and then the water was up to my calves, and it was slowly rising, and it was going to my stomach, and I was very happy, so that I could quickly irrigate the fields and go home and sleep earlier. Thinking like this, the water has risen to my chest, I suddenly felt something at my feet, I thought it was garbage or something, so I kicked my leg a few times, hoping to kick the thing away, but I didn't expect the thing to float up along my body, I saw clearly, it turned out to be a small water snake. Then there were two other small snakes swimming towards me from different directions, and I was startled and hurried to catch them with my hands, and then the people also walked to the shore, but they were still bitten by a small snake in the palm of my hand. When I got out of the water, I went to my aunt's house, and my dad came to see how I was holding back the water, and when they knew that I had been bitten by a snake, they bandaged me, and said that fortunately the snake was not venomous.
Xiang Yang pulled out of his contemplation, or looked at the sentence, compared to these two dreams, in my familiar environment and around people I am familiar with, snakes are closer to me, am I afraid and uneasy because of things at home? Will I be deceived? Is there a potential danger? But obviously there was nothing going on at home during that time, and I rarely went home, and I didn't usually chat with my dad. So I have doubts about the interpretation of this dream, but fortunately Xiang Yang is an optimistic person, and if he can't figure it out, he doesn't want to.
Two more months passed peacefully, and just when Xiang Yang was about to forget those two strange dreams, the snake fell asleep again. This time it was a very fat black snake, and it was very lethal. I walked from a green belt to the urban village, and as I walked, I noticed movement behind me, and when I looked back, there was no one, and when I looked at the dense green belt, I didn't find anything unusual, thinking that small animals such as mice and frogs were moving. But as I kept going, there was a sound in the green belt, a bit like the sound of rubbing dry leaves, and I dared to look back cautiously, and saw a long black thing there, and I was so frightened that I hurried towards the village. I happened to be almost at the rows of rental houses, and I was overjoyed, thinking that thing should not dare to come, there were many people here. I also happened to see several young men coming out of the building, and they were about to walk in the direction of the big snake, so I hurriedly exited to remind them: There is a snake over there, don't go that way. The boys looked at each other, and before they could make a move, the snake crawled out of the green belt, and the boys immediately turned around and ran away. How could this ferocious snake let them go casually, and immediately chased after them, so fast that there was blood everywhere I went in the blink of an eye, and there were still the corpses of those boys on the ground. I was so frightened that my feet went limp, and I wanted to run but I couldn't do it, so I could only move slowly in the opposite direction of the serpent. After a while, I heard the sound of snake scales scraping the ground behind me, and it turned out that the big snake was following me again, and it didn't come forward, but followed me from a distance of a few meters, and my heart was furious. Then I came around the corner and saw a group of people coming this way, and I reminded them that it was not safe to come this way, so they should not come this way. As a result, before the words fell, the big snake came out again and ran towards the group of people, who shouted and fled in different directions, but they were all solved by the big snake one by one. I tried to run while the snake was chasing the group, but I found myself frozen, unable to move, and then I didn't regain my freedom until the snake was behind me. I couldn't escape, and I couldn't remind others, so I could only resign myself to walking to a place where there was no one outside the village. The serpent never hurt me, but its behavior gave me the creeps. When I woke up, I was still indulging in deep fear as if I had lost my soul.
