Seizing Dreams [B1]

Ch 135.2

"I don't understand what you mean." Chen Yekai said, "How is the matter at hand that we're discussing related to Ryuusei?"

"Don't get anxious." Zhou Sheng murmured, seemingly thinking about a rather brain-burning and complicated problem. After a moment, he seemed to relax a little, "But Ryuusei wouldn't be forgotten completely just like that. Everything related to him would just turn into fragments that are buried in the deepest part of the subconscious — the Forgotten Ruins."

Chen Yekai said, "That's equivalent to being forgotten. After all, according to our discussion last time, if you burned my memories of Ryuusei, then the chapel in the distance would be destroyed under the divine fire, and the memories in the Forgotten Ruins will never be recalled again."

Zhou Sheng, "No, there are two possibilities for the requirements of recollection."

Chen Yekai suddenly frowned, Zhou Sheng wasn't surprised in the slightest. He glanced at Chen Yekai, and the corners of his lips turned up slightly.

"The first possibility," Zhou Sheng answered, "Is that before everyone dies, their subconscious world will be reconstructed. All memories throughout their life would flash by in front of them then."

Chen Yekai remembered now. This was a problem that he and Zhou Sheng had discussed seriously before, so he nodded.

"Trotting horse lamp?" When Yu Hao heard this, he instantly thought of the saying.

"Yes." Chen Yekai said, "Life's trotting horse lamp. For a period of time before death, it is said that one's consciousness will become very clear. But of course, accidental deaths don't count..."

Zhou Sheng said, "The second possibility is the tinder I rekindle in the subconscious. Just like when we entered Liang Laoshi's subconscious world."

Chen Yekai said, "And memories would rise from the ruins and return to the subconscious world, get reconstructed, then establish impressions on the surface."

Zhou Sheng said, "So it is possible to reawaken memories."

Yu Hao could roughly guess Zhou Sheng's line of thought. He answered, "The two of you think that Huang Ting might 'reawaken' Qihang's memories? That's too ridiculous, it's impossible for him to do that."

"Perhaps." Chen Yekai said nonchalantly.

"Maybe." Zhou Sheng answered.

Chen Yekai stopped the car and slung his bag onto his back. The three of them entered the airport, their deductions pausing for the moment. It was Yu Hao's first time sitting in business class, and he just felt that it was quite novel, while Zhou Sheng started flipping through his review materials for his postgraduate entrance examination.

"When will you hand me the opening report for your thesis?" Chen Yekai asked.

Yu Hao was having a good time, but when he heard this, he immediately turned despondent, "Don't talk about that."

Chen Yekai pointed at Yu Hao, "You must hand it in before the end of the Lantern Festival."

So Yu Hao could only say 'okay, okay,' then take out his laptop and prepare his opening report. It was already considered quite late for him to start writing it now, but fortunately, Chen Yekai knew that his work was tough and hadn't given him a deadline. As long as he could make it in time for the defense, it would be okay.

The plane arrived at a second-tier city near the South. Yu Hao was about to wake Zhou Sheng, who had a book on his face, when Zhou Sheng's finger lightly tapped the back of Yu Hao's hand. Evidently, he wasn't asleep.
