Chapter 3: Sleep
Li Zhen felt that he was having a long dream.
I dreamed that I fell into a river, but the water was solid. He turned his head to look left and right, and there was a white mist between heaven and earth, like an unreal space. Well...... Unrealistic space? He thought, "Is this a dream?"
Then he lifted his legs, trying to get out of the water. However, in the next moment, countless thumb-sized fish suddenly jumped out of the water. The fish, with only one head and a mouth on it, bit viciously on his body, tearing off large patches of flesh and blood.
He was about to scream, but found that it didn't hurt to be bitten by the fish. On the contrary, it is crispy and numb, and a little comfortable. It was as if the original flesh and blood were the shackles that bound his body, and now they were being removed piece by piece. So he stood in the water, and let the hot blood stain the water until ......
He looked down and saw that he had turned into a crimson skeleton.
So I was taken aback and woke up.
It was not yet dawn, and the energy-saving lamps overhead glowed pale. His bed was the only one lying in the room, and it seemed empty. Someone next to her made the sound of even breathing, it was the mother who was asleep. It's just that the door behind her didn't close, and the cold wind blew in one after another.
Have you slept for so long? Remember that it is morning when you fall asleep. He felt much better - the place where he was hit by the truck before was no longer painful, on the contrary, it was like soaking in warm water, warm and relaxed. And the rest of the place felt no pain, like an ordinary morning when I woke up from my sleep countless times.
It's not a big deal. Li Zhen said to himself, and then he was going to prop himself up and close the door.
However, as soon as he tried to exert his strength, he was stunned for a moment.
The body is not listening. I can still feel my limbs, but ...... It's like being firmly pressed by some heavy object, and you can't move even a little bit of strength with twelve points of strength. Li Zhen was a little panicked. His first thought was - is this paralyzed?
He wanted to try harder, try again. However, the next time I exerted my strength, the pain came like a mountain of people. It's like one moment it was calm, and the next moment it was turbulent. Every cell in his body jumped, as if it had turned into those small fish in a dream, biting his nerves one by one.
It hurts!
He wanted to scream, but there seemed to be a lump of cotton in his throat, and he could only let out a beastly roar. His body trembled because of the pain, and he woke up Song Chenxiao beside him.
When the mother raised her eyes, she saw her son's eyelids opening and closing rapidly, pounced on him like a mother animal, touched his body up and down, and asked with a crying voice, "What's wrong?" Li Zhen, what's wrong with you? Where does it hurt? ”
However, he was speechless, and the corners of his mouth soon overflowed with white foam. Song Chenxiao immediately ran out of the door and shouted, "Doctor, doctor!" ……”
……
……
Zhang Kesong returned to the car and slammed the door. The heat rushing to her face made her head dizzy, and her vision was even hazy when she was covered with tears.
Zhang Chaoyang looked at his daughter's expression, put out the cigarette butt in his hand, and gently patted her shoulder: "Is the situation bad?" ”
The girl cried and shook her head, then threw herself into his arms: "How so? It's just a car accident...... But I can feel it, it's all gone, it's all gone......"
Then he broke down and wept bitterly.
Zhang Chaoyang patted her back, comforted her silently, turned his head to look at the hospital gate, and sighed in his heart. It's a good kid. He thought sullenly, how did he get to such a thing. Since Ko Songdu said...... It's all gone, so it's probably not going to work.
Although he had only met Li Zhen a few times, he still had a good impression of the boy. Although it can't be said to be as heart-wrenching as her daughter, the elders still have the sadness of the younger generations.
It's a pity for this kid. Kesong's college entrance examination is estimated to have to be delayed.
The daughter in her arms suddenly raised her head again, grabbed him and grabbed him like drowning straw: "Dad, you have to find a way to find them - they must have a way, right?" They can save Li Zhen, right? ”
Zhang Chaoyang looked at his daughter's flowery face, took her in his arms and patted her gently, and was silent for a long time before he said, "Dad likes that child very much." Also...... I inquired. But it can't be helped. ”
The daughter's body stiffened in her arms. So he sighed again and repeated in a softer tone: "Daddy is just such a daughter as you." But Dad really can't help it. ”
After a while, Zhang Kesong finally really, as if venting, and cried.
……
……
Fifth day of admission.
Li Zhen's various vital indicators have dropped to close to the warning line. The coma has been getting longer and longer, and the limbs have lost their stress response. Pus pockets burst all the time on the body, turning out red and yellow flesh. Most of the time he was sober, he would just say one sentence: "Mom, I'm hungry and want to eat meat." ”
Whenever this time, Song Chenxiao cried so much that she could only ask Li Kaiwen to help her out.
But I'm really hungry!
Li Zhen thought so. In fact, most of the time, he felt that he was awake. It's just that his eyelids are so heavy that he doesn't even have the strength to open them. The doctor whispered to his parents that he might not be able to do it......
However, he had another feeling - his consciousness was getting more and more blurred, but his body was ...... But it is becoming more and more active. He felt that he was growing every moment, like a small tree bathed in sunlight and rain, growing happily. The shackles that bound his consciousness were gradually unraveling, and he thought he was about to fly. He wanted to live...... At least that's what the body told him: don't die, don't disappear, stay alive.
In fact, this is exactly how people react before they die. He sometimes says that to himself. The feeling of being able to fly is that the soul is about to leave this body?
The last time he tried to open his eyes, he felt like a ball full of hydrogen that was about to rise into the sky the next moment. Father and mother, both by the bedside, were watching him. Behind them, there was a group of doctors and nurses in white coats, with a compassionate god on their faces.
Li Zhen slowly rolled his eyes to look at them, and engraved the expressions of his father and mother into the deepest part of his memory. Then he tried to raise his hand and touch their faces, but he couldn't.
So he rested for a while and said to them, "...... Dad, Mom, I don't want cremation. ”
And then the consciousness really flies.
The monitor in the ward made a long beep of "drip", and the wind outside the window suddenly became stronger.
