2 Human Encounters Chapter 175
The chemotherapy was extremely painful and long, and at the mercy of the doctors, Tatsunami didn't seem to feel the pain, and he found that he even missed the kind of thing that had tormented him so much.
"I've been in hell for a long time, and I don't even have a normal brain?"
Seeing that the thin young man did not have even a slight frown because of the pain caused by chemotherapy, but laughed self-deprecatingly, Luo Xi's eyes were even more surprised, this patient, who was originally extremely afraid of pain, just fainted overnight, and some kind of strange change occurred.
"It's kind of interesting......
Touching the bridge of her upturned nose, Luo Xi turned around and left, she seemed to be extremely interested in what was going on.
A treatment lasted for nearly two hours, and Chen Ming didn't leave the hospital like this, and since he had found the target person, he wasn't in much of a hurry.
Lying in the empty ward, Chen Ming listened to the ticking sound from the electrocardiogram, and through the window, there was not a single star in the dark sky.
I don't know if it was the arrangement of fate or a deliberate trick, Luo Xi, who worked in this hospital, turned out to be the attending doctor of a patient named Liu Yuan possessed by Chen Ming.
"Knock knock knock. ”
In the early morning, a knock on the door disturbed Chenming who was sleeping lightly, and he didn't have to think about it to know who was knocking on the door.
In sight, Luo Xi, who was wearing a white coat, walked in, and the slightly bloated coat did not bring ugliness to the tall woman, but added a little charm.
"How are you feeling today?"
The professional question came out of Luo Xi's mouth, "Do you feel uncomfortable?" ”
"No, thank you. ”
Chen Ming shook his head, struggled to his feet, and said, "Doctor, how long do I have left?"
"For how long?"
The pen in the hand of the woman who was taking notes with her head down stopped and frowned, "Judging from the degree of spread of the patient's tumor, if you cooperate with the treatment, it should last for a year." ”
As she spoke, she raised her head slightly and asked suspiciously, "Why would a patient ask such a question today? You would never have taken the initiative to talk to us before......
"Who knows?"
Chen Ming laughed loudly, "Maybe it feels like death is coming, and a lot of things are thought about, right?"
"It's good if you want to open it. ”
Luo Xi smiled, "A relaxed mood will help your treatment. ”
"Then if I give up treatment......"
Chen Ming said seriously, "How long does the doctor think I have left?"
"Abandon treatment?"
Luo Xi frowned and said, "How can you think so?" Although your condition is serious, it is not without hope, you ......"
Before she could finish speaking, Chen Ming interrupted her, "I'm fed up with living like a prisoner here, even if there is only one day left, I want to be able to live like a human being......"
Luo Xi was silent for a moment and put the notes in his hand aside, "Although from a personal point of view, I don't want you to give up your life like this, but as a doctor, I respect your thoughts, but, have you really thought about it?"
"Hmm. ”
Chen Ming sat up, nodded and said, "I think about it, please ask the doctor to help me go through the discharge procedures, after all, I don't have any relatives......"
"This ......"
Luo Xi's head drooped slightly, and said, "Okay, but we need you to give up the treatment, and there are still some processes to ......."
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry. ”
Chen Ming smiled, "Trouble doctor." ”
"No, it won't. ”
Luo Xi shook his head, got up and said, "Since the patient has been decided, then I will arrange it for you, and you will be discharged from the hospital in the afternoon." ”
"Hmm. ”
Seeing Luo Xi leave, Chen Ming said in his heart, "At first glance, it's really an angel......
......
As Luo Xi said, the process of the hospital is extremely troublesome, and it is already in the afternoon after going through it again.
Walking out of the hospital, Chen Ming looked at the white critical illness notice in his hand and smiled slightly, "Less than two months, it's really a coincidence." ”
Looking up at the long-lost sunshine in the world, Chen Ming's eyes narrowed, "Maybe in the past, I should know how to enjoy life better, why waste my life in the hospital?"
Although I thought so in my heart, Chen Ming did not regret choosing hell, since the gods did not favor me, I went to hell, my heart was gloomy, where is not the abyss?
This person named Liu Yuan, in the land of fish and rice in the south of the Yangtze River, although he is not a rich man, but he can also be regarded as a petty bourgeoisie, his parents died early, he began to drop out of high school, and he crawled at the bottom of the society, and also broke out of a small world.
He runs a bar called Dream House under his name, and a good business has allowed him to accumulate some wealth, in short, he has a car and a house, and his parents are dead, a typical high-quality young man.
But things don't go so smoothly, the day he finds out that his wife has betrayed him, and the day he faints and is hospitalized because of the torture of illness.
He has a poor personality but is extremely afraid of death, struggling to beg the doctor to let him go, and at the same time he does not dare to sign his name in the face of the abandonment certificate.
Until the moment when Chen Ming replaced him and became him, his soul had already gone to another world.
"I don't have friends, I don't have lovers, I don't have family, so I don't have to worry about it. ”
In the taxi, Chen Ming searched for Liu Yuan's memories while looking at the cloudless sunny place, he began to be a little curious, which world will this young man who dare not do big bad things and keep doing small bad things go to after he dies?
"If I do something bad after borrowing the corpse to resurrect my soul, should these punishments be counted on my head or on his head?"
Thinking like this, the smile on Chenming's face became more and more weird, so much so that the look in the taxi driver's eyes seen through the rearview mirror was a little strange.
The Dream House in the center of the city is not too far from the hospital, and after half an hour's drive, Chenming, who was carrying a small amount of luggage, got out of the car.
Looking at the huge signboard that was a little sensational, Chen Ming took out his mobile phone and dialed the phone number of a few wine and meat friends in the address book, tonight, carnival.
......
Wine and wealth, drunk and golden, late-night bars are always noisy and noisy, Chen Ming, who is not good at smoking and doesn't like to drink, also picked up cigarettes and alcohol, and circulated in this small world where the lights shine.
Sitting in front of the bar, Chen Ming felt the restlessness of the magic in his body, a scantily dressed beauty, a handsome guy with a hideous face, "There is a demon living in everyone's heart, and it will be released at a certain time." ”
Looking numbly at these swaying beasts, Chen Ming began to understand why those demons always like to descend on the world.
Lust, sin, burns their lives and can bring endless power to demons.
Here, there is no faith......
After the carnival, there was endless loneliness, looking at the drunken walking corpse in that place, Chen Ming didn't have any mood swings, and he turned the corner and went up to the second floor.
The second floor of the Dream House is Liu Yuan's residence, and the small suite that is not spacious is more than enough for one person.
This is the second day of returning to the world, and the night is not as cold as hell, but Chen Ming feels a trace of coldness.
"Knock knock knock. ”
At this time, there was a knock on the door that should have been empty, Chen Ming frowned, got up and walked away.
Opening the door, Chen Ming saw a middle-aged man in civilian clothes, in his impression, he had never seen this middle-aged man, which also included Liu Yuan's memory.
Looking at him puzzled, Chen Ming asked, "May I ask who you are?"
"Huh, strange ......"
The middle-aged man was also at a loss, frowning and muttering to himself, "I obviously feel a magic force rippling here, how can I ......?"
"This person is a magician on earth?"
After feeling it carefully, Chen Ming felt the faint demonic aura in the middle-aged body, and said, "Which camp are you belonging to?" ”
This sentence is obviously not aimed at the middle-aged man, but a certain thought hidden in his body.
The middle-aged man's face turned pale instantly, and then distorted, an extremely evil aura permeated his body, and his pupils became like poisonous snakes, flashing with a strange light.
"Honorable seventh-order nobleman. ”
The middle-aged man knelt down on one knee, his voice as harsh as metal, "My name is Wei Wen, and I am a fourth-order little demon affiliated with Thunder and Lightning. ”
"Thunderbolt Demon King......
Chen Ming suddenly said, "What are you looking for me?"
"That's right. ”
Vivian replied, "This low-level being who has contracted with me has sensed your presence with the help of my magic, so come and see, he is a cadre of the Jiangnan Underground Society, and if you have anything, you can order him to serve you." ”
"Is this appropriate?"
Chen Ming asked, "As you can see, I am not a demon of the Thunder and Lightning Camp, and I can cross the line between different camps?"
"Your Excellency must have come to earth for the first time. ”
Vivian raised his head and said, "According to the provisions of the Demon Palace Covenant, in other worlds, all demons must work together and must not disobey the orders of high-level demons, this has nothing to do with the camp, so you can rest assured." ”
"That's ......"
Chen Ming nodded suddenly, and then smiled, "I know, you go back, I want to talk to this human." ”
"Yes. ”
Wei Wen saluted, the strangeness in his eyes and the aura all disappeared, and the breath that belonged to the human body poured out again, but compared to just now, the middle-aged man's dazed eyes were gone, replaced by the eyes that looked at Chen Ming full of fear and awe.
"You don't have to be so scared......"
Looking at the middle-aged man whose legs had been shaken into a sieve a little speechlessly, Chen Ming sighed, turned around and said, "All in all, let's come in first." ”
Sitting on the sofa, Chen Ming poured a cup of hot water for the middle-aged man before he spoke, "What's your name?"
"I ...... My name is Li Chao......"
Perhaps out of fear, the man trembled and said, "Vivian said...... You, you're looking for me?"
"Hmm. ”
Chen Ming nodded and asked, "How much do you know about the distribution of holy demons in Jiangnan?"
"When, of course ......"
Taking a big sip of water, Li Chao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, " Jiangnan City is a densely populated area, most of our magicians are active in some casinos, nightclubs, bars, the number of people is very large, covering a wide range, and the Holy Church will only be in the church of faith, although their number is not as large as ours, but because of faith, the comprehensive strength is stronger than ours, and according to reliable information, the core members of these churches, there are a small number of people, who are angels reincarnated in the world, but the specific number, we do not know. ”
Chen Ming frowned, from the information that Li Chao said, and compared with what he had seen in the library before, he felt that what An Mixiu said was not unreasonable.
"By the way, how are you doing with intelligence gathering?"
As if remembering something, Tatsunato asked, "I need to ask you something." ”
"Your Excellency, please say ......"
Li Chao said, "Although our comprehensive strength is not as strong as that of the church, because of our wide distribution, we have come into contact with a lot of three sects and nine streams, so our intelligence collection is much better than theirs. ”
"That's good. ”
Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Please help me inquire about some places in Jiangnan where magic power fluctuates greatly, or someone like you who found me with strange magic power fluctuations, also help me pay attention to it, and if you find it, explain it to me immediately, and in return, I will give you more powerful power." ”
"A more powerful ......"
Greed took over the fear, Li Chao left the sofa and knelt on the ground in worship, "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely do my best to search for the information you want." ”
Chen Ming frowned, but he didn't say anything, nodded and said, "Then this matter will be left to you, in addition, let those magicians in this city not approach me at will, otherwise ......"
Li Chao's body trembled violently, and he hurriedly said, "I understand......"
With a casual wave of his hand, Li Chao left here like a run for his life, Chen Ming also stood up, looking at the dark sky outside the window, an inexplicable sneer broke out of the corner of his mouth, "What do you say is different, it's still so greedy and humble, if magicians are just like this, it will disappoint me a little." ”
"If you've seen the River Styx, will you make a deal with demons? I think you will?"
......
During the day, Dream House also takes care of the work of the restaurant, but Liu Yuan's cooking skills were not good before, so the business can be regarded as bleak compared to the night.
But Chen Ming's cooking skills are much better than the previous owner of this body, and after three days, the restaurant's business has also rebounded explosively.
After returning to the world for five days, Tatsumei seems to have forgotten his mission and runs the dream house happily.
"After all these days, won't she come?"
In the afternoon, the busy time passed, Chen Ming sat in front of the bar and played with the wine glass in his hand, before being discharged from the hospital, he left a business card for Luo Xi and invited her to come to the Dream House to sit, and thanked her for taking care of him all the time.
But from the time he was discharged from the hospital to the present, for three whole days, Chen Ming did not wait for the arrival of this beautiful woman.
"If I don't come back tomorrow, I'll need to go to the hospital again. ”
Thinking like this in his heart, Chen Ming got up, handed the shop to his waiter, and walked out of the dream house himself.
As a petty bourgeoisie, there are always cars to travel, and although Chen Ming's can't drive, but fortunately, with Liu Yuan's memory, he can barely get on the road.
The open-top sports car drove on the wide road, and the gentle breeze on his cheeks made him a little trance-like, and even began to feel that if he could, it was actually a good choice to live in the world like this.
Came to a church with the address given by Li Chao, and after parking the car, Chen Ming walked in.
The white tower-shaped building exuded a hint of sacredness, which made Chen Ming extremely uncomfortable, because it was not a pilgrimage day, and there were relatively few people here, and there were only a few women in nun clothes walking in the distance.
Chen Ming squinted slightly, and walked to the church, in front of the neatly placed benches, there was a wide podium, and behind the podium, there were some beautifully carved relief frescoes.
"This believer, today is not an open day, may I ask what problems you encountered when you came here?"
Behind him, a young man's voice rang out, "Maybe I can help you?"
"Hmmm......"
Chen Ming turned around and saw a young man in a black robe holding a thick book looking at him with a smile and saluting, "Honorable priest, I have this intention. ”
The young priest nodded, turned around, and said, "Please follow me." ”
Following the priest to a clean room, the two sat at the table facing each other, Chen Ming smiled, "Let me introduce myself first, my name is Liu Yuan, and I am the owner of a bar." ”
"My name is Dai Xiao, and I am a full-time priest of the church. ”
Dai Xiao smiled and said, "So, what do you want to consult?"
Chen Ming thought for a moment and said, "That's the case, a friend of mine, who just passed away some time ago, and I have an excellent relationship with him, so I would like to ask the priest, this friend of mine, will his soul go to hell or go to heaven?"
I don't know how to answer this question. ”
Dai Xiao frowned and said, "Can you tell me about your friend's reality when he was alive?"
"Absolutely. ”
Chen Ming nodded and talked eloquently, what he talked about was some things about Liu Yuan, which were long and boring......
"May I ask the priest, can this friend of mine ascend to heaven?"
After speaking, Tatsumei asked, "Although he made some mistakes in his life, I think the merciful gods should forgive him, right?"
"Of course. ”
Dai Xiao smiled, "The gods will forgive everyone who believes in him, and even if you make a big mistake, your friend will still be taken to heaven." ”
"I think the priest misunderstood. ”
Chen Ming shook his head and said, "My friend doesn't believe in gods, of course, he doesn't believe in devils either, he's just a simple materialist, such a person, will the gods forgive him and lead him?"
The smile on Dai Xiao's face stiffened, and he couldn't answer for a while, Chen Ming was not embarrassed, he got up and saluted, "Thank you, Father Priest, for solving my doubts, then, let's meet next time." ”
With that, he left his seat and walked towards the door, and after a few steps, he stopped again and said, "By the way, if the priest has a chance to meet the gods, please help me ask another question." ”
"May you ask him, why is it that a diligent believer who has never done anything bad in his life has always been denied his favor?"
