"Searching for the person in dreams"

The sky has finally brightened;last night's wind was almost enough to give one a cold.

With the arrival of a new day,the sun slowly rises over the mountains,and I begin to feel the warmth,my body no longer so uncomfortable.

Rise and shine,it's time to get going;let bygones be bygones.But what about my car,my livelihood?I don't want to leave it here.We start trying to help the driver flip the taxi.Come on,push～Use all your might!In the end,the taxi doesn't budge an inch.Maybe we should call for a rescue;it's better than leaving the car here.She shakes her head helplessly and tells me they tried to call for help last night,but there's no signal here,and the call couldn't go through.

Ah,forget it～This car has been with me for over a decade;it's time for it to retire.Let this be its final resting place!I think it's better for us to find that village you're heading to first;at least we can survive,as this damned place doesn't even have cell service.

Wait,didn't you say yesterday that this place is close to that village?Yes,that's right,the distance isn't far,but the route is complicated with several forks in the road;without navigation,it's easy to get lost.

Why don't you follow the route I remember?I became familiar with the way when I lived here as a child;I'll give it a try,maybe we can reach the village.

And so,we follow her,step by step,beginning to grope our way forward.

Look,there's the village ahead.Really?I start walking towards her,and indeed,the village is visible ahead,but there seems to be no path leading there.How are we supposed to get across?We can see our destination but can't find a way to reach it.

In my memory,we passed through here,so why can't I find that path now?

I searched the area carefully and couldn't find the direct path to the village she mentioned;it seems that after all this time,the path has indeed disappeared,likely overgrown with weeds or washed away by rain.

Is anyone there～Help us～Is there anyone who can take us out of here～We start shouting with all our might.We call out until we're exhausted and have no more strength to spare,then we calm down.After waiting here for a few hours without a single person coming by,it seems that our shouting did nothing but deplete our energy.

For now,we can only rest briefly here and look for another way once we've regained some strength.

At this moment,as we're resting,we're suddenly awakened by the sound of barking dogs.

Bark,bark,bark～Hey,what are you doing lying here?Do you need help?At this moment,a middle-aged man with a black-spotted hunting dog appears in front of us.We're lost and trapped here;can you help us find a way to the village ahead?I'm from that village;I was actually here hunting and happened to hear your calls,which drew me over.Now that I'm heading back,I'll take you out of here!Of course,that's great!
