Volume 1 Tower of Flesh Chapter 1 Black Mirror

Next Chapter

In the director's office of the hospital, a young man and a middle-aged uncle are talking.

"Li Ben, twenty-four years old, a five-year graduate of Sichuan University and West China, um... Locals, why did you come back to Fuzhou? It should be good in West China. ”

"Because home is here. ”

"Then why do you want to go to Sichuan to study?"

"At that time, I wanted to stay away from home. ”

"Oh... Which department do you want to go to, and what do you think you're good at?"

"Surgery. ”

"Surgery is tiring, are you sure?"

"It's just as tiring in any subject. ”

"Hmm... Okay, it just so happens that the surgery department has been short of people, you come back in the afternoon, I will assign you a doctor, remember to prepare the relevant materials and complete the procedures. ”

"Okay, thank you, Dean. ”

............

The second year.

In the operating room.

"Tweezers. ”

Li Ben handed the tweezers to the chief surgeon, Chen Yan, and a piece of blood-stained iron was removed from the patient's chest.

"There is no internal bleeding when it is blown up like this, the life is really big, take the needle and thread, Li Ben, you will stitch it up, change sides. ”

Li Ben and Chen Yan exchanged positions and took out several pieces of iron filings from the patient's abdominal wound.

"Wipe your sweat. ”

The nurse wiped Chen Yan's forehead with a dry towel.

"Report the situation. ”

"Signs are normal, no internal bleeding. ”

"Next, deal with the leg injury, have you sewed it up over there?"

"Alright. ”

"Then sew up your abdomen as well. ”

............

Year 3.

Hospital, breaks.

It was frighteningly overcast.

"Li Ben, did you bring an umbrella?" Chen Yan looked at the black clouds outside the canteen window.

"I didn't bring it, the weather forecast said it would be sunny for the past two days. Li Ben replied while eating a lunch box.

"It seems that it is not accurate, anyway, after this year, you will be able to get the attending qualification, right?"

"Hmm. ”

"Nothing to do?"

"What else can I plan?" Li Ben was a little confused.

"My career is stable, why don't I find a girlfriend? Chen Yan hinted.

"Oh. ”

"You should talk more, look at how Xiao Liu is, she seems to be a little interesting to you. Chen Yan was referring to nurse Liu Yuhe.

"Didn't think about it. Li Ben quickly pulled the lunch box.

"It's not too late to think about it, she's not bad in all aspects. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Tsk, I really don't know what to say about you, let me ask you, don't you have any needs at all?"

Li Ben looked at this mentor who was ten years older than him, and said solemnly: "I can solve it myself." ”

Chen Yan was a little hairy by him, and in the past two years, in addition to knowing that he has a solid foundation and good skills, Chen Yan still can't predict Li Ben's thoughts.

He approached Li Ben and asked quietly, "I don't mean anything else, just ask, are you gay?"

"It's not. Li Ben replied decisively.

Chen Yan had nothing to say at this time, he leaned back in his chair, looked at the ceiling of the cafeteria, looked at the golden light of the black clouds outside the window, there was a kind of silent magnificent beauty, and looked at his watch, there was still an hour and a half before the end of the lunch break.

"Talking hurts. Li Ben popped up such a sentence for no reason.

"What?" Chen Yan was stunned.

"The Taoist priests have this saying. ”

"Haha..."Chen Yan smiled reluctantly.

"Well, your joke is a little cold. Chen Yan looked at Li Ben's serious appearance, and couldn't help asking: "We are Western medicine, and the set of qi cultivation and self-cultivation is talked about by Chinese medicine practitioners, do you want to become a Taoist monk?"

Taoism and Chinese medicine are inseparable.

"If the cultivation of immortals is true, I will try. ”

Chen Yan said: "I see that your face is a little stiff, do you want to check it? ”

"No, the face is not stiff, and it does not affect the hands. ”

"Well, I'm kidding, don't take it seriously. ”

"I know. Li Ben smiled stiffly.

"You, you, you were like this when I was two years ago, I thought it was the prudence and humility of the newcomer, and two years later, I still like this, only to find that you are too similar to me when I was younger. Don't smoke, don't drink, be stupid, and be silent, so there's really no way to find a wife. If that girl takes a fancy to you, and the conditions are good, you have to get out of the house as soon as possible. ”

"And then?"

"Then, then you'll be the same as I am now. ”

"Forget it, and it's good not to smoke or drink. ”

"Stinky boy, are you looking down on me? Besides, smoking and drinking are essential skills for social communication, if you don't, someone will definitely look for you when they get drunk at the dinner. ”

"Why?"

"I'm looking for you to take care of it! Alas, pull it down, it's useless to talk to you about this wood, and then you'll understand. Tomorrow is A-Ying's birthday, you can come to my house for a meal in the evening. ”

Chen Ying is Chen Yan's daughter, twelve years old, who often comes to the hospital to find her father during the summer vacation, and is familiar with Li Ben.

"Okay, I'll buy her a bear doll, she shouted for it the last time I played. ”

"There's no need, don't get used to her. It's almost time, I'll go to sleep first. ”

"Hmm. ”

............

After hours.

Dark clouds had been over the city all day, but no rain had fallen, and it was hot and oppressive. At first, you could see the beauty of light through the clouds, but now only darkness remains, allowing the city's lighting system to be activated early.

The subway is overcrowded during off-duty hours, and it takes half an hour from entering the station to taking the train, and because it is near the hospital, you can often see all kinds of crutches and wheelchairs, and the crowd leaves a little space for them, which makes the crowd more dense.

Lee was quiet and didn't play with his phone, just standing in the crowd, moving slowly with the large group, and when he stopped, he stared at the day-to-day media content on the monitor, which he had seen thousands of times.

"Hello Dr. Lee. A young man with a bandage in his hand greeted him.

"Is it here for a re-examination?" Li Ben asked, this is a college student who once had a serious fracture of his left arm, I remember that it was called Zhang Chuangye, Li Ben treated his wound, and after a few months, I didn't expect him to remember himself.

"Well, it's not a big deal anymore. ”

"Be careful when you play basketball in the future. ”

"Okay, thank you. ”

Li Ben nodded in acknowledgment.

On the subway, whether standing or sitting, mobile phones and bowing their heads are the only gestures, except for breathing and occasional coughing, and the only sound left in the fully loaded carriage is the clicking sound of the subway running.

"Arriving at the station ahead, tea pavilion, please prepare in advance for passengers arriving at the station, open the left door and get off the train......"

From the exit next to the Chating International Building to the ground, Li Ben walked to the nearest shopping mall, picked a one-person sized stuffed bear as a gift for tomorrow, and settled the dinner at Shaxian snacks downstairs in the community.

Li Ben, who has not officially become an attending doctor, does not have a high salary, but he prefers to be alone, not sharing a house with others, and he has to leave 3,500 yuan for a single room every month, counting 100 yuan for water and electricity, and the remaining available balance in his salary is only 1,040, which is barely enough for him to eat.

He has been living like this for more than two years.

In the past, Li Ben believed that being away from home was an exercise to independence and a sign of growth. But the stability when I go home during the winter and summer vacations every year makes people more and more nostalgic.

When time passed unconsciously, Li Ben, who was about to graduate, was slow to realize that the road to true independence had just come to his feet.

His home is not in the city, and when he returns to the village, he has lost the protection of his "student" status, and the eyes of his family have changed in their eyes, and they have begun to urge him to work, without much breathing room.

It's good that the direction of medical graduates' work has been decided in advance, and there is nothing to worry about. But Li Ben felt that his home no longer had the same sense of stability as before. Especially when his mother asked him, "Is your salary high?", "After five years of study, the salary is just like that, it is better to go out to work, so what is the use of you going to college?", his self-esteem was undoubtedly stung fiercely.

But none of this matters to him, after all, he is a blood relative who raised him, and he just talks about it, and it doesn't mean anything special.

Perhaps this is the real journey to the need for independence. This was what Lee Ben thought at that time.

The apartment he rented was on the ground floor, which had both good and bad points. The good thing is that it is very convenient to go up and down the stairs to take out the garbage or something, but the bad thing is that the car always has to pass by his residence when it enters the parking lot at night.

But it's the cheapest one. Lee Ben comforted himself.

The furnishings in the apartment are basically unchanged from when Li Bengang moved in, empty and simple. His daily routine is fixed, going to the hospital in the morning to work, doing a few push-ups and abs training at home in the evening, playing with his mobile phone, looking at medical records, and then sleeping. Research papers and the like, you have to wait until you are qualified to be a professor before you can do it.

The next day, the feeling of black clouds crushing the city became stronger and stronger, and the city's lighting system was not turned off. Li Ben guessed that a typhoon was coming, but there was no information about the typhoon on the news channels on the Internet or on the official website of the Meteorological Observatory.

Some conspiracy theorists and netizens have opened their minds, and it is not uncommon for them to make statements such as bad omen and demons when things go wrong.

The clouds in the sky don't seem to change. This is the feeling of Li Ben. After all, he was not a person who would look up at the sky all day long, and this sense of disobedience was quickly overshadowed by the urgency of the hospital.

"What's the situation?" Chen Yan and Li Ben were on their way to the operating room, asking the people in the ambulance.

"The car accident, collided with the truck transporting the steel bar, it was very miserable, the person is now unconscious, a steel bar passed through the neck, the throat was ruptured, but it did not cut the carotid artery, the fire brigade people clamped off the long end, and the rest did not dare to move. The third rib of the left chest was comminuted, the tip of which pierced the lung, and the right chest also had several fractures, and the tail of the spine was also broken, and the lower body did not have any serious injuries. ”

"Have you notified your family?"

"The police called, but the other party seemed to think it was a liar, so they hung up. Now the police are going to his house to call someone. ”

Chen Yan said: "I can't care so much, save people first." ”

The operation lasted three hours, and the person's fate was suspended.

"Sent to the ICU, have the family arrived?" Chen Yan asked the nurse waiting to take over after walking out of the operating room.

"No, the truck driver came first and paid some money in advance. ”

"Pay close attention to the situation of the injured and call me as soon as there is something. Lee, you can go and rest first. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Wait, I should work overtime tonight, you come to my office to get a gift when you get off work, and give it to Ah Ying on my behalf in the evening. ”

"Good. Li Ben agreed.

Until the end of the day, the family members of the injured did not come to the hospital, and the truck driver had already been taken away by the police.

Arriving at Chen Yan's office, Li Ben saw another huge stuffed teddy bear. He thought that Chen Ying should be able to have double happiness.

Chen Yan's home is not particularly far from the hospital, and it can be reached in about ten minutes by taxi, Li Ben stuffed the two big bears into the back seat and sat in the passenger seat.

Chen Yan's wife, Ouyang Ying, received the news that he was going to work overtime and expressed her understanding. And their daughter Chen Ying, after seeing Li Ben's funny appearance of holding a big doll on each side and clamping herself into a hot dog, her sullen mood was instantly swept away.

The child is very simple, emotions come and go quickly, she has long been surprised by her father's overtime from time to time, and will not always play the temper of the little princess, and happily play with the two bears on her birthday.

In the eyes of some people, playing with children is a very painful thing, in fact, the key is whether they can completely relax themselves, always thinking about other things, naturally there is no leisure to play childish games with children, which is also the reason why people are older and more idle, the more they like children.

Of course, Li Ben is not that old, but he will not feel that playing with Chen Ying is a chore.

Since he started working, he has found that his emotions have become inexplicably weaker, and it is difficult to feel irritable and happy. Since it is a surgery, I am used to seeing all kinds of deformed human bodies in the hospital, and it seems that the fear of blood has disappeared. His expression was few, mainly because he had become numb to everything in his current living environment.

He just wants to live alone now, and he has no purpose. He thought that people came to this world with the greatest purpose of being alive at the beginning. Later, I learned that people will eventually die, so living well should become the greatest goal.

But he was really not interested in this "right".

Since this thought took over his heart, it gradually evolved into his current state of mind. If it is good, it is called "indifferent to fame and fortune and not competing with the world", and if it is ugly, it is called "no ambition and rotten wood is difficult to carve".

The current life is "getting by", and doing what others say you will do, which is called "going with the flow".

After leaving Chen Yan's house, Li Ben didn't have any special feelings, and went straight back to the apartment.

He never had a birthday himself, and he didn't think there was anything to celebrate about his birthday, and he didn't bother to waste money. When he was in school, no one saw him hold a birthday party, and over time, even birthday greetings were saved. He was happy to be quiet.

After returning to the apartment, Lee found a flyer in the crack of the door, and usually crumpled it into a ball and threw it in the trash. However, the texture of the kneading paper ball this time made Li Ben feel a little strange, he took out a hundred yuan of cash from his body, closed his eyes, and rubbed it with his index finger and thumb to compare, which was exactly the same in terms of feel.

Who would make a flyer out of this paper?

Only then did Li Ben spread out the paper ball and turn his attention to the contents of the leaflet.

The flyer is printed with a magic rabbit holding a high magic hat in his left hand and a long magic stick in his right hand, and at the tip of the magic wand is printed in magic font with the following sentence:

If you want to go on an adventure in another world, throw this piece of paper away.

In the first two years of college, Li Ben still liked to read novels, but with the increase in his studies and the subtle change in his mentality, he has not read any online novels in the past two years. But that doesn't stop him from thinking of the plot of a novel that crosses the otherworld.

Even if you don't say I'll throw it. Li Ben thought to himself, this may be a prank by some people.

After repeatedly confirming that the leaflet was nothing special except for paper, Li Ben turned on the gas stove and burned it.

Another night.

On this day, Li Ben's sense of disobedience was finally confirmed, and he clearly remembered the special triangular cloud over the hospital, which was exactly the same as when he looked up yesterday.

Of course, he is not the only one who noticed this anomaly, and on the online forum, someone had already posted with two photos taken at different times, and began to exaggerate the strange atmosphere.

No matter how weak the air currents in the atmosphere are, it is impossible for the clouds to not be able to blow.

What is even more strange is that this phenomenon is not only in Fuzhou, there are a total of 54 in China's coastal and inland areas, including Lop Nur. In foreign countries, statistics from major countries have yielded a staggering total of nearly 20,000 data.

Viewed from a satellite perspective, the immobile clouds will still intersect with other moving clouds, but when the moving clouds are dispersed by the air currents, the consistent contours of the immobile clouds can be recognized.

The sky is falling, and there are state organs and the army on top of it, and Li Ben does not want to worry about these anomalies.

In the hospital, he had already learned that the death of the person he rescued yesterday was caused by a sudden cerebral hemorrhage in the middle of the night.

At this time, it was not his time to go to work, Chen Yan was resting on the bed in the consultation room, and Li Ben brought him a breakfast. I didn't want to disturb him, but Chen Yan still woke up.

"I'm sorry. ”

"It's okay, I'm not asleep. Yo, the kid has grown up and knows to bring food to his superiors. Just rush to your heart, upgrade and stabilize. ”

"Oh. ”

"You don't know how to say thank you?"

"I didn't want to bribe you. ”

Looking at Li Ben's unsmiling expression, Chen Yan couldn't tell whether he was serious or not, "...... Forget it, what did Ah Ying do last night?"

"I was a little depressed at first, but then I had a lot of fun with the two teddy bears. ”

"Well, that's good... No, how can there be two teddy bears?"

"I bought her one. ”

"That's not good, I know your situation, I'll give you a credit from my salary when I go back. ”

Li wanted to say something, but Chen Yan stretched out his hand to stop him: "Don't talk nonsense, now let me go to the department to help Xiao Liu check and maintain the equipment, and bring the door shut." ”

Nurse Liu Yuhe is a very beautiful girl, and she is also patient and enthusiastic in dealing with people and work, and there are many people who have a crush on her in the hospital. On weekdays, in addition to Chen Yan, she is the one who can talk to Li Ben the most, or is the most willing to talk to Li Ben.

The sorting of the equipment is time-consuming and troublesome, and the addition of Li Ben makes Liu Yuhe a lot easier. After finishing the incident, Li Ben sat on the edge of the bed, and Liu Yuhe leaned over. Although the hospital was constantly filled with the smell of disinfectant water, he could still smell a peculiar smell that clearly belonged to a girl at close range.

However, after reading Liu Yuhe's news to him, Li Ben felt confused and angry for a long time.

It was a message forwarded to her by her friend, and according to Ms. Liu, it was her friend who inquired about the situation.

The headline of the news was "A tertiary hospital treats the patient's life as a child's play!", and the subheading reads "Unscrupulous Doctor Kills Someone by Unauthorized Surgery!", and the text begins with the words: According to the contact of the deceased's family......

According to the index recommendation, there are many similar articles, such as "Famous doctors are arrogant, and they will eventually produce bad results!", "Family members cry, Chen Yan quack doctors!" and so on.

The publishing agencies are all little-known small self-media, and all the articles are aimed at Chen Yan. The content of the article said that although the injured person was in a car accident, it was not life-threatening, but the doctor operated on it without authorization, resulting in the injured person's violent death the next day.

The comments under these articles are all one-sided invective accusations:

"This doctor is a fool! The last time I went for a check-up, he insisted that I had a brain problem, and I was going to have surgery at every turn, so I went back to another hospital and took a few medicines. ”

"This kind of thing has also happened to my uncle's family, and he had surgery before he signed it, and he was sure that his aunt was killed. ”

"May the deceased rest in peace, may the family get rid of their pain as soon as possible, and the Dogecoin doctor will not die well!"

"I've checked the information, this doctor is from the north, not a local, I heard that it was because there was a big incident in the north and he couldn't get along, so he came to us. ”

There are also some so-called philistines:

"Maybe the injured person has a hidden wound? Of course, it needs to be carefully examined!"

"It's a trivial thing to have a car accident?

Then there was a comment that retorted:

"Did you get to the operating room?" Are you mentally retarded?"

"I was at the scene, and at that time the injured person could still move and speak, and his consciousness was quite clear, but a few doctors came to ask a few words, and then he was pushed into the operating room. I didn't expect to die, it's terrible, and public hospitals can't be relied on these days. ”

"I hope your parents will be sent to the operating room when they have a little injury......!"

Every time I refresh it, it can be seen that the number of likes, comments, and retweets is rising.

Li Ben asked Liu Yuhe: "Has this news spread?"

"I'm afraid it's already spreading, and this isn't the first friend to come to me to ask about the situation. ”

"What about the precincts?"

"There's not much movement in the group yet, and I guess it's a matter of time. But don't worry about Lao Yan, it's not the first time that our hospital has encountered this kind of thing. ”

"Did the family of the deceased come?"

Liu Yuhe shook his head in denial.

There was a sudden noise outside, attracting the attention of Li Ben and Liu Yuhe.

At the entrance of the hospital, there were 30 people dressed in white plains, a man in the front row holding a portrait of the deceased, and several women next to him were crying and screaming mourning, and the security guards struggled to stop them.

"Chen Yan! come out!" the group shouted in unison, without stopping.

Soon after, with the arrival of the news media, the entrance of the hospital was already flooded, and then there was a rush of pushing, like a flood bursting the embankment, and the white flow poured into the hospital, crowding the ambulance parking space.

The white-clothed soldiers knelt in three rows, and the reporters carried video cameras to shoot horizontally, and in the camera, there was a panoramic view of the kneeling and shouting close-ups of everyone.

"We don't want money! Just one truth! One justice! Let Chen Yan come out!"

"Let Chen Yan come out! Chen Yan come out!"

Someone had already called the police, but the farce would not end until the police arrived.

Li Ben rushed to Chen Yan's office and found that the dean was one step ahead of him, talking to Chen Yan about something.

"Dean, don't worry, it's on our side, they can't make any tricks. This was Chen Yan's sentence before sending the dean away.

"Look, you're still worried about me?"

"Yes, somewhat. Li Ben said honestly.

"That group of people is just a small amount of thunder and rain, just a little money, and they don't dare to really make a big fuss, and you will understand if you have more experience. In the early years, when I first came here, it was called a murderer, and I went directly to the courtyard to beat people and smash equipment, and later promulgated relevant policies, all of which have been reined in a lot, and there are very few such fools. ”

"Oh. ”

"Just know, what to do. ”

"Chen Yan, come out!" the shouts outside were endless.

"Come, come, stop shouting!" Chen Yan walked out.

The first to surround him was not the white-clothed army, but the media people. Chen Yan didn't care about this, as soon as he saw the man holding the portrait, he became energetic.

"I know you! The year before last, it was also you kid who came to make trouble, I remember the time you said that the deceased was your uncle! Who are you who died this time?"

"It's my godfather! I'm a brother to the old man's son! You killed my godfather!" cried out the man with pretended grief.

"Ask, how many godfathers do you have? I don't mean anything else, but do you know that the news of your troubles in various hospitals in the province has spread throughout our industry over the years? You are also a celebrity, Su Xiaochuan, I remember that you also died a godfather on Longyan's side last year? That's right? The year before last, it was Sanming's side, and a grandmother died? By the way, more than one died in your family last year, I remember and..."

Reporters turned their cameras at Su Xiaochuan.

Of course, Su Xiaochuan didn't expect to lift a stone and hit himself in the foot this time, but as a professional doctor, he has been in the society for so many years, so he naturally will not be easily defeated, and immediately asked: "Do you talk about these things! I will ask you! Did my godfather die at your hands? Did he die in your courtyard? Do you dare to say something about this statue?"

Another group of reporters moved their cameras to Chen Yan.

Chen Yan understands that if he answers yes or no, he will inevitably be caught by him, and if he avoids answering, he will also be slandered as a weak-hearted and hyped up, no matter what, it is a dead end, a clear trap.

Su Xiaochuan is a little complacent in his heart, for him, he is most afraid that the doctor will hide in the hospital and not come out, and he is never afraid of confronting him face to face, reversing black and white, and confusing right and wrong, which is his forte.

Chen Yan didn't have the ability to answer immediately, and Su Xiaochuan didn't plan to give him too much time to react, so he had to continue the pursuit.

"Your godfather died of serious injuries in a car accident, which has nothing to do with the hospital's treatment methods, let alone Dr. Chen. Until last night, the blood family of the deceased had not been in the hospital at all, and Dr. Chen had been taking care of the patient. Li Ben didn't know when he took off his white clothes and appeared in the crowd of onlookers in inconspicuous short-sleeved shorts.

What he said, except for Chen Yan, who needs to avoid suspicion, anyone can say it, but no one dares to say it, for fear of provoking himself.

Su Xiaochuan's train of thought was interrupted suddenly, and he asked, "Who are you?"

Li Ben replied: "I am an outside nurse, and I often take care of patients in the hospital, and I happened to be at the scene yesterday. ”

"It's nonsense, when my godfather came in yesterday, he was obviously able to talk well and move, how did it get into your mouth and become a serious injury?

"There were two people who came to the hospital yesterday, one was lying unconscious, and the other perpetrator who could speak, you may have confused the two. ”

"I ......" Su Xiaochuan was speechless for a while, he couldn't say that he didn't get confused, that was because he deliberately left a way out.

There is always a time when the truth is announced, and a dead duck can only play himself to death, Su Xiaochuan has been doing this profession for so long, because he knows how to use the so-called mass public opinion, and he knows how to take advantage of the loopholes in the incident.

People don't care about a matter for too long, as long as they create public opinion momentum in advance, it doesn't matter what the truth is later, and after going through the formal investigation process, people will forget about it long ago. At that time, in order to deal with the police and not be charged with spreading rumors, they must leave a flaw in the center of the incident for themselves to justify themselves. And in this incident, he deliberately asked the blood relatives of the deceased not to appear in the hospital, and leave everything to himself, just to leave it for the future to give himself an excuse - "I haven't seen the old man for a long time, I heard how things were, and I was so enthusiastic for a while, so that it was so human, so that there was an oolong." ”

The scene was silent for a long time, and suddenly someone in the crowd shouted: "The police are coming!"

Su Xiaochuan stared at Li Ben carefully, and wanted to keep in mind this young man who was messing with his business.

The police dispersed the crowd and brought Su Xiaochuan and others back to the bureau for questioning, and the farce came to an end.

When Li Ben returned to the community from work, a group of people surrounded him from behind, and Su Xiaochuan walked slowly from the rear, holding an iron rod wrapped in thick paper in his hand.

"I didn't expect it to be so soon, did you?" As soon as the words fell, he beckoned to Li Ben.

Li Ben dodged this and wanted to escape, but was caught by the people around him.

Su Xiaochuan was not annoyed that he didn't hit him, but said with a smile: "Drag him to the corner and see where he escapes." ”

The three of them held Li Ben up and dragged him to the corner where the garbage was placed, and as soon as Li Ben was put down, he was about to get up, but he was kicked firmly and fell into the garbage heap.

This time, he couldn't avoid it and ate more than a dozen sticks from Su Xiaochuan.

Su Xiaochuan obviously didn't do this for the first time, and he was also measured, and he greeted the place where the fight hurt the most but not to the point of death.

In Li Ben's consciousness, this period of time is very long, Su Xiaochuan was tired, his hands were sore, so he kicked with his feet, and after loosening his muscles and bones, he came two or three rounds, and beat Li Ben to a blue nose and swollen face, and it hurt so much that it was difficult to move, so he gave up, staggered away, put down and said: "You know the consequences of calling the police, right?

In fact, Li Ben couldn't hear what he was saying at that time, and tinnitus occupied all of his hearing. His eyes hurt so much that he couldn't open them, and his vision was hazy as he looked at the unchanging black clouds in the sky.

Then, the black clouds began to change. It surged like boiling ink, and then cooled quickly, turning into a smooth black mirror, reflecting everything in the city, and Li Ben seemed to see his own embarrassed misery on it.

He vaguely felt his body rising, getting closer and closer to the mirror, and sometimes he felt that it was the black mirror pressing towards the city, and an illusion like the sky was falling in his confused mind.

Either way, he finally touched the Black Mirror and became compatible with himself in the mirror. When he was fully immersed in the Black Mirror, gold became the background of everything, and strange objects appeared in his field of vision, which could not be described in the words he knew. Their forms are beyond geometry, and if anything, they can be regarded as the projection of the high-dimensional world in the low-dimensional world.

They are in the opposite direction of Lee Ben, he rises, they fall.

Li Ben's eyes wandered, and he was suddenly attracted by a black spot in the distance. Even though they were thousands of miles away, there was still a breath on the black spot that made him feel like he was falling into an ice cellar, and he wanted to look away, but he found that he couldn't do it at all, only feeling that his temperature was passing rapidly, and finally it was as if he had entered absolute zero, and even his consciousness was frozen with time and space.

It wasn't until a golden lightning bolt hit Li Ben's mind that he woke up slowly.
