At 1:23 in the morning, one of the light tubes at the entrance of Lawson's convenience store broke. It was half bright and half dark. A woman in a red skirt looked down at her phone and walked towards the middle of the road. In the right lane, the white car was driving with high beams and did not slow down.
Lu Xing had seen this scene in his dream three years ago. At the end of the dream, the woman was knocked out and her head was wrapped in a red skirt. She rolled twice on the asphalt and remained motionless.
But this time, he changed.
He rushed out, pushed the woman away, and was hit by a car and sent to the hospital. The woman squatted beside his bed and said something he couldn't understand: "You changed your dream again." - Once you change it, the world becomes a little bit different. The accounts will be balanced, the weather will be dull, and a neighbor who can count dreams will move upstairs. If it deviates further, it will deviate towards people.
Lu Xing is a watch repairman at the "Travel Time" watch shop. He is poor and tough-talking. He repairs watches during the day and turns off the lights at night. This is how he lives his life. Before his departure, his master left him an old pocket watch that didn't move. There was a line of words engraved on the inside of the watch cover: Wake up, don't sleep too deeply. Those were the last words his mother said to him before she disappeared when he was six years old. There is only one sentence in my mother's diary: The sense of déjà vu is not an illusion, it's someone changing her life.
From that night on, Lu Xing began to dream. He dreamed of a gray-white mountain called Zhenshan. The mountains are covered with dream fruits. Bright dreams are dreams of living people, while dark dreams are dreams of being eaten. There was something waiting for him in the mountains. Someone carved "Don't go deeper" on the road he walked on. There was a grain of gray sand on his windowsill, growing up night after night.
What's behind the door? No one knows. The mother didn't know, and the dreamkeeper didn't know either. They only left one sentence:
"When you get to the second floor, come find me."
