Chapter 17: The Little Huts in My Mind

At night, Lu Dongye was woken up by a severe headache.

He rolled over from the bed and sat up, gasping for air.

After turning on the light and washing his face, Lu Dongye felt better, and when he sat back on the bed, he subconsciously saw the wound on his ankle.

After some sterilization and application of some medicine in the health center, the wound has completely healed, and until now, there is not the slightest sign of collapse, proving that the wound is not infected.

Lu Dongye's attention was obviously focused on the rope at his ankle.

The rope was originally his anklet, but Lu Dongye didn't know why, when he was cleaning the wound in the health center, he found that the strange core-like things on it had completely disappeared.

Originally, it was the old principal who picked up the items he brought with him, and he kept them for so many years purely as a memory, as for meeting his biological parents, Lu Dongye didn't dare to think about it.

Now it's all gone, and all that's left is a small rope...... Lu Dongye didn't know why, but there was a faint sense of relief in his heart that the stone had fallen to the ground.

It's just that how did those strange things on the rope disappear?

Supposedly, even if the fragments of the broken flower pot are broken, the rope will not still be intact, right?

Since he was a child, he has studied the strange pits on the rope countless times, and even went to the library to check the plant materials when he was in college, but he never got a definite answer.

But what Lu Dongye is sure of is that the little thing like the core of the fruit is extremely hard!

When he was a child, he tried to remove a grain, intending to use a small hammer to break it to see what was inside, but found that the "core" had not moved at all, and there was a small gap on the old principal's small hammer.

Lu Dongye was not sure whether the strength of the flower pot fragment could shatter the "core".

But what he is sure of is that even if the force can shatter it, it is impossible to shatter all the "cores" in an instant, right?

In particular, there is no injured skin on the inside of the ankle, and there is no force, how can it disappear for no reason?

Lu Dongye couldn't figure it out.

What made him even more puzzled was ...... Since he was separated from Du Liyuan, his head began to ache inexplicably.

The first time was on the way to the health center on three wheels, but the pain was very light at that time, as if there was a slight twitch in the head, and at that time, Lu Dongye didn't take it seriously.

The second time, on the way to buy food for the children after purchasing snake repellent medicine, the pain symptoms were significantly heavier, and the duration was slightly longer.

At that time, Lu Dongye felt that it might be the fragment of the broken flower pot that hit his head, but the symptoms did not appear at that time.

The third time was to go back and forth up and down the mountain on Lu Dongye, transporting the purchased food from the broken three wheels to the pickup.

He only vaguely remembered that he had finally finished transporting all the food, and he was almost tired from sitting in the cab.

And that time, the headache not only began to be severe, but also lasted longer.

Lu Dongye felt at that time that he might be tired, which prompted the dark injury to become serious.

The fourth time, when he went to see the village chief and sprinkled snake repellent medicine in the mountains alone, the situation became serious again!

If he hadn't been holding on to a fruit tree, he might have been lying on the ground in pain, and Lu Dongye felt that he had a backlog of blood in his head.

It's just that, if it's bruising, why does it hurt all over the head, not just the bruising one?

The fifth time, before Lu Dongye fell asleep, he was already sweating on his forehead from the pain.

This time, Lu Dongye gritted his teeth and decided that after he finished talking about business with Du Liyuan tomorrow, he must go to the town's health center for a check-up.

He was even thinking that if the town's health center couldn't do anything, he would have to go to the city hospital.

And this time...... It's the sixth time!

Not only did the pain last longer, but he was also sweating profusely.

I looked at the time, and it was 2:37 in the middle of the night.

"No, if it hurts again, I'll go to the health center overnight!"

Lu Dongye bit down and made a decision.

He knew very well that such a state of intense pain, which would worsen every time, might really not be able to meet Du Liyuan tomorrow.

As soon as he thought of this, Lu Dongye couldn't help but sigh.

I finally have a chance to improve the school, but don't let anything happen at this time!

He has even begun to think about whether to let Chen Muqian talk to Du Liyuan on behalf of him about tomorrow's business, or whether to tell Du Liyuan that he needs to postpone it.

People paid a deposit and didn't release the pigeons, but they did, so what would Du Liyuan think?

But let Chen Muqian talk about it, even if she is very reliable, won't it make Du Liyuan feel that she has neglected her?

Lu Dongye was full of bitterness for a while.

Thinking about it, he just fell asleep.

It's just that the seventh headache still came!!

Lu Dongye, who was woken up again, found out before he had time to look at the time...... There seems to be a strange thing in my mind.

Lu Dongye was sure that he hadn't opened his eyes, but he was also sure that he had "seen".

There was chaos all around, and under the smoke, it was barely possible to make out a dilapidated log cabin.

The wooden house leaked on all sides, and there were many holes and traces of corrosion on the walls.

Lu Dongye's mind moved, and the cabin came straight in front of him, and before he could react, the door of the cabin opened, and he had already come to the inside of the cabin.

It was dark, and I could faintly see a dilapidated wooden table in front of me.

There was something like a transparent dome on it.
