Fourth Hospital Patient Exchange Forum - Chapter 159
According to past experience, this Immortal Zhang does sound like a boss. But it doesn’t matter, what they are least afraid of is the boss.
Zhang Xianren is very famous in this town. Generally, the **** sticks in TV dramas are called Banxian, but he is called Xianren. One can imagine his status in the hearts of the people. Just ask around and you’ll know where he is.
Zhang Xianren lives in a temple on the east side of the town, and is the chief bishop of that temple.
Everyone inquired all the way and finally found the temple, which almost surprised them at that time. Too many people, too many people in the temple.
I didn’t meet anyone on the street before, but this temple is full of people inside and out. The inside was full of people kneeling, and the outside was full of people who wanted to go in and kneel.
Nine of them came here and couldn’t squeeze in for a while.
“There must be too many people.” Yu Xiao wiped off his sweat, and looked at Tang Xingyin, “Everyone is in the business of ghosts and gods, why are there so few Taoists?”
Tang Xingyin folded his arms around his chest, with a stinky face and didn’t speak.
This temple is quite strange, and everything in this town looks a lot like the old towns in China. But in such a quaint town, there is actually a very western temple.
It can’t be said to be very Western, because this temple is a Gothic building. In addition to the reliefs of angels and devils on the wall, there are actually reliefs like Dunhuang Flying Apsaras.
Not only that, the clergymen standing at the door wore black robes, and the believers knelt inside instead of praying but burning incense. The inside and outside of the entire temple was filled with smog, making people feel foggy.
“This style is enough to mix and match.” Zhao Lan couldn’t help complaining, “Should we just go in like this?”
“Otherwise?” Yu Qinglang said, “With our strength, is it necessary to make a detour?”
That’s right, Yu smiled and said, “Then go in.”
The nine of them were inconspicuous among the crowd of pilgrims, and finally squeezed to the door, when suddenly a hand stretched out in front of them stopped them.
It was a clergyman wearing a black robe. He looked to be in his twenties, with an ordinary appearance, but his expression was very indifferent.
“What are you doing here?” The other party looked at everyone with an unusually indifferent expression, not the kind of eyes that look at ordinary strangers. Those eyes were like those of a person who was in a bad mood walking on the road and caught a glimpse of a few ants on the ground. They were cold, indifferent and bored.
Yu smiled and said, “We want to meet Zhang Xianren.”
Hearing Yu Xiao’s words, the other party didn’t show any surprise, but said: “Only the most devout believers can see immortals.”
Yu Xiao had to ask, “How can one be considered the most devout believer?”
After the other party heard this, he pointed to the side, Yu Xiao turned his head to look, and saw a merit box there, and believers were stuffing money into it continuously.
Yu Xiao was speechless, she really rarely saw such a down-to-earth scene in the dungeon. She turned her head to look at her friends, everyone had mixed feelings.
“We don’t have any money.” Yu Xiao asked, “If we don’t have any money, is there still a chance to meet a fairy?”
The other party still said the same thing, “Only the most devout believers can see immortals.”
“Yes.” Wang Dongdong clapped his hands, “It’s impossible to communicate, so let’s use force. I’ll stop the gatekeeper here, and you go in and find Immortal Zhang.”
Everyone is not a person who likes to follow the rules, so Wang Dongdong’s suggestion was immediately adopted. The next moment, Wang Dongdong punched the clergyman in the face, and the scene became chaotic, and the others quickly took the opportunity to enter the temple.
The temple is very large, and it is densely packed with kneeling people. They were quite devout, even though the chaos outside failed to attract their attention, they still knelt on the ground motionless, chanting words.
Yu Xiao looked up and saw a huge statue above the temple. It was a distorted human figure, from expression to body, which was abnormally distorted, and seemed to be suffering unbearable pain. Yu Xiao felt uncomfortable just looking at it. Is this the **** they believe in?
Clergymen stood around the group of kneeling believers. Seeing that eight of them came in but did not kneel down, they surrounded them one after another.
Zhou Xiaozhen said loudly: “We want to see Zhang Xianren!”
“Only the most devout believers can see immortals.” The head priest was a man in his forties, with a dry and stiff face, staring at them with eyes like dead fish.
“What makes you the most devout believer?” Zhao Lan asked.
The dry man heard the words: “Kneel down and pray to my Lord, the Lord can tell who is the most devout believer.”
Yu Xiao sighed, thinking that there was no other way, some of them might have forgotten how to write the word pious. Thinking about it, Yu Xiao raised his head to look behind him, and asked, “Does Immortal Zhang live there?”
Anger appeared on the dry man’s face, Yu Qing said: “Leave one person to deal with them, and we will continue walking in.”
They walked into the temple, followed by the screams of the priests.
Zhou Xiaozhen whispered: “This place must be a cult, look at those priests, they all look mentally ill.”
“Isn’t it normal for the NPC in the dungeon to have mental problems?” Yu Qinglang said.
Pushing open the door behind the temple, there was a row of offices and dormitories behind the door. The corridor was empty and silent, with candles burning on the wall, only a row of log-colored doors were tightly closed.
The seven people walked over to look, but there was no house number on the door, and it was impossible to know what was behind these doors from the outside.
“Is it possible that Immortal Zhang is here?” Yu Xiao asked.
“I don’t know.” Zhou Xiaozhen looked around and said, “There are no stairs here, and there is no other way.”
Everyone was guessing, when suddenly Tang Xingyin walked to the front, raised his hand and pushed open the door in front of him, “If you’re inside, just go in and have a look.”
“Squeak—”
As the wooden door was pushed open, a white light appeared in front of Yu Xiao’s eyes.
So dazzling! She raised her hand to cover her eyes, and soon the white light disappeared. Putting down his hands, Yu Xiao found himself in a room. She turned around, and she was the only one in the room, and everyone else disappeared.
Yu Xiao was not surprised by this sudden alone situation, she was very calm and didn’t panic at all. Turn around and there is a door behind you. The furnishing of this room is a bit retro. There is a bed in the room, and there are bookshelves on one wall, and there is a desk in front of the bookshelves. There were papers on the desk, and a bottle of ink with a white feather stuck in it.
Yu Xiao hesitated between opening the door and looking around, and decided to look around. It wasn’t that she was inflated, but because the nightmare was in the backpack behind her, she was more confident.
Walking to the desk, the ink on the paper is still wet.
Yu Xiao picked up the paper, and there was such a paragraph written on it.
“Sister Xiao won three more titles today, but I didn’t have any. Sister Xiao was lucky. Everyone contributed, but she was the only one who won the title.”
“…”
There is no signature below this text, but there is only one person who will call her Xiaojie, and that is Xiaozhen. Yu Xiao took the paper in his hand and read it carefully, wanting to see if the words on it were actually written by Xiaozhen. After watching it for a while, she gave up, and the recognition of people by handwriting was really just a plot in a TV novel.
And she was basically sure that it was definitely not written by Xiaozhen. If Xiaozhen suddenly appeared in a strange room like her, it would be impossible for her to be in the mood to write these strange words. She will probably find a way to get out first, and if she can’t get out, she will choose to destroy this room.
If she had to write something, she would only write about her situation, the clues she got, or her last words.
Just as he was about to put the paper back, Yu Xiao found that there was another piece of paper with writing on it.
“Xiaoxiao clearly said that the three people will divide the points equally, but she has been just talking about it. Why don’t you just say it if you don’t want to divide it equally, and we didn’t force her to divide it equally.”
Looking at this sentence, Yu Xiao couldn’t help scratching his head. what is this? Why is there such a thing in this room?
She felt very speechless and was about to leave when suddenly she heard a voice behind the bookshelf.
The sound did indeed come from behind the bookshelf, the sound of someone talking. Yu Xiao moved the bookshelf away, and found a secret door behind the bookshelf. She pushed hard, but the door couldn’t be opened. Fortunately, this is a wooden door, and it is a very old wooden door. The splicing between the wooden boards is no longer tight, and she can see the light behind the door through the gap.
Yu Xiao lay on the door, leaned close to the gap and looked inside.
There is also a room opposite, the decoration style is similar to hers. Squinting his eyes, Yu Xiao saw two people appearing from the corner, it turned out to be Sister Lan and Xiaozhen.
The two rummaged around, as if they were looking for something.
Yu Xiao was about to knock on the door to get their attention, when Xiao Zhen said, “What should we do? There is no way out, why don’t we smash the wall.”
“I’m afraid it won’t work.” Zhao Lan shook his head and said, “We have tried it just now, and the wall cannot be broken.”
“Then what should we do?” Zhou Xiaozhen cried with a sad face.
“Don’t worry.” Zhao Lan was worried, but still comforted Xiaozhen, “Even if we can’t get out for a while, Xiaoxiao will definitely find us.”
This was obviously a comforting word, but Zhou Xiaozhen had a complicated expression when she heard it, “Yes, Sister Xiao will definitely find us, she is so powerful, and she can invite so many powerful foreign aid.”
Zhao Lan was concentrating on finding a way out, when she heard that her tone was wrong, she asked, “What’s wrong with you?”
“It’s nothing.” Zhou Xiaozhen said sullenly, “Sister Lan, Sister Xiao has almost accumulated enough points, do you know that?”
Zhao Lan was silent for a moment, then said, “I know.”
“She kept saying that the points should be divided equally.” Zhou Xiaozhen’s voice sank, “But she has to get them all…”
“Don’t think about it.” Zhao Lan said seriously: “The three of us have agreed to go out together, and Xiaoxiao is very nice, she won’t…”
“Sister Lan, why don’t you go on?” Zhou Xiaozhen sighed, and said, “Actually, I understand Sister Xiao a little bit. She might have really thought about dividing the points equally before. But did you forget that you were in Time Hospital? Ye Tao said that only The two of us went out, Sister Xiao didn’t…she might…may be in a hurry?”
Zhao Lan was silent, and Zhou Xiaozhen didn’t know what to say. Both of them kept silent, lowered their heads and focused on finding a way out.
Yu Xiao watched silently at the crack of the door, she took a few steps back, away from the door.
Still able to see the light on the opposite side through the crack of the door, Yu Xiao turned around and walked towards the door behind him. Grabbing the doorknob and twisting it lightly, the door was pushed open.
The outside is the previous corridor. Unlike before, there is no one here.
Yu Xiao looked to the side, except for the door opened by himself, the left and right doors were closed. After thinking about it, she walked to the door next to her and tried to open it.
The door couldn’t be opened, but she heard a voice inside. Listen carefully, it was the voice of Sister Lan talking to Xiaozhen. Yes, it was the room to the right of the room she was in, the room behind the door behind the bookshelf.
In other words, Tang Xingyin opened a door, but they appeared in different rooms. In some rooms there is only one person, such as her. In some rooms, there is more than one person, such as Sister Lan and Xiaozhen.
Is this reasonable?
How are rooms assigned? According to the quality of the relationship or according to the value of the face?
She thought for a while and took off the bag on her back, opened it, and there was no cat inside.
This is an illusion, Yu Xiao can be sure. Because there are many bugs in it, not to mention that after Tang Xingyin opened the door before, she didn’t move her feet at all, why did she appear in the room?
If they just appeared in different rooms and the situation is the same, why is there a door to get out of her room, but Sister Lan and Xiao Zhen are trapped in the room and cannot get out?
And she has been lingering in the room for a while, why is she the first to come out? She didn’t believe that Tang Xingyin and those seniors from the Second Academy would be more difficult than her.
So it must not be real, these are hallucinations.
So now there is only one problem, and that is how to get out of the illusion?
Yu Xiao thought about it, and decided to try the most common method first, using the pain sensation to wake himself up. She raised her hand and began to think about where it hurts the most. I heard that the meat on the inner thigh is relatively tender and it hurts to pinch.
Yu Xiao pinched a bit of flesh, squeezed hard and twisted again.
“Woo…” Yu Xiao’s painful tears were about to flow out, and she rubbed herself quickly. She looked around with tears in her eyes, but there was no change in the surroundings.
It seemed that the pain could not wake her up, so she began to think about the next method.
Generally, hallucinations are based on human perception, and the real surrounding environment will not change. If everyone is hallucinating, then other people should be not far away from them.
Yu Xiao started to feel around, but he couldn’t find anything after touching for a long time. She thought that it might be because she had left her previous position after falling into hallucinations, so she couldn’t touch other people.
then what should we do?
If it’s just a matter of getting separated from others, why isn’t Nightmare in the bag?
correct! nightmare! Yu Xiao suddenly remembered, so what if it is in a hallucination? Nightmare can enter people’s dreams, as long as she falls asleep, can’t she see Nightmare in the dream?
Thinking of this, Yu Xiao immediately lay down on the ground without hesitation, and began to hypnotize himself.
Fortunately, she has a special skill that makes it easy to fall asleep. She lay on the cold ground with her eyes closed, thinking of some happy things in her mind, and fell asleep after a while.
In the dream, she was dazed, and she didn’t even realize what dream she had, when suddenly a hand reached out and grabbed her wrist.
Yu Xiao turned around and saw a familiar person, “Nightmare!”
Nightmare grabbed her hand and said, “I fell into the environment, and when I woke up, I found that you were gone.”
“I’m still in the illusion, I don’t know how to wake up, so I came to you on purpose while sleeping.” Yu Xiao: “Is there any way to get me out of the illusion?”
“Yes.” Nightmare raised her hand and gently covered her eyes, “Close your eyes.”
Yu Xiao closed her eyes. Following the darkness, she suddenly felt weightless, as if she stepped on the air and fell from a hundred-story building.
She opened her eyes suddenly, and when her vision became clear, she saw the moving ceiling. She was lying on her back, and there were footsteps in her ears. Feeling it calmly, she found that she was being lifted high by several people, and she didn’t know where she was going to be sent.
