The Fallen Volume Chapter 3 Encounters with Psionic Pickpockets
The tastes, the sounds, the light, what you feel in one body is completely different from what you feel when a spirit exists on its own. One is to perceive with the spirit and the other is to feel with the body.
The latter is much more abundant. Because it has a nervous system, glands that perform their own duties, and all kinds of emotions and pleasures secreted by the glands.
From the dim deep sea to the colorful world of flowers, Xiao Lei is immersed, intoxicated, and hungry.
Xiao Lei pointed out the destination for Tang Nan, Jiangbei Food Street. Then it was up to Tang Nan to wander with Liang Jun, and he just wanted to enjoy everything he hadn't seen for a long time.
They walked out of the neighborhood, across the street, down, into the subway station.
In the subway, on the train to Jiangbei, Liang Jun sat next to Tang Nan and looked at his mobile phone, laughing heartily from time to time. Tang Nan closed his eyes and took a nap, but inside him, he was constantly asking Xiao Lei questions.
"Why did those people create me? just to be your doppelganger? Who are you, or what are you? Where are you from? Who are the other doppelgangers? How can I know the other doppelgangers?......"
"Stop!" Xiao Lei said to the doppelganger Donnan, "I can't answer so many questions at once. β
"Then exchange memories, like just now. β
"Yes, but I can only allow you to come in for a few minutes. You know, I'll have to try to control it so I don't eat you, and if you can't get out, we'll be one. Not only will I not be able to leave your body, but you will cease to exist and become a part of me. β
The two reached a consensus, and Xiao Lei opened his heart.
Donnan went in, eager to make sense of the memories. One pulls out two, then two pulls out more. Different clues are like intertwined tree roots, like roads in the city. The doors that can be seen everywhere on the roadside hide all the secrets of Xiao Lei's life, as well as all the details of the secrets.
Tang Nan was dazzled, and he was dazed, and he probed deeper and deeper, and walked farther and farther. Xiao Lei felt more connection, more resonance, and exclaimed: "I can't go in any further, come back quickly." But Donnan didn't seem to hear, and continued to explore deeply, more forks in the road, more rooms. Xiao Lei had no choice but to yell in his ear: "Tang Yi is here!"
This trick really worked, Tang Nan came back to his senses and retreated with the help of Xiao Lei.
Tang Nan wondered: "I have seen a lot, but my questions have not only not decreased, but have become more and more." β
"Friend, understanding a person is certainly not as simple as we usually see. β
"The psionic world is beautiful. β
β...... Yes, it's beautiful. β
"Where is it?"
"In the imagination. It is beautiful because it was created out of thin air by generations of psionic beings, and the beauty that follows people's wishes is certainly unquestionable. β
Don Nan opened his eyes and returned to the world, once again surrounded by the sounds around him. The sound of machinery running from the train, the rattling laughter of Liang Jun, the whispering of people. Tang Nan looked up and saw that there were still 5 stops left to his destination.
Don Nan turned his head, and there were two girls sitting on the other side, one in a pink dress and the other in a black suit. At this time, the carriage is almost entirely filled with people who have just left work.
One of the girls said, "I really don't understand how someone as incompetent and stupid as she can be promoted?"
Another said, "You don't know?"
The girl crossed her hands over her chest, then leaned back in her chair: "I know." Isn't she just the boss?"
"Then she's not stupid. β
"I just don't understand whether there is fairness and justice in this world. β
"I think there is. Whatever you want,...... You have to pay something......"
The girl was noncommittal, feeling that something was wrong, but she didn't know how to refute it.
Hearing this, Xiao Lei felt a little uncomfortable, causing Tang Nan's body to rub his ass on the seat. The ass touched the girl next door, and the girl glared back at him, then turned back to continue talking.
"What's wrong with you?" Tang Nan asked Xiao Lei inside.
"I'm probably not used to this body yet. β
"But I think you hate what these two girls say. β
Xiao Lei did not answer.
After a while, the subway passed another stop, and Tang Nan asked, "Do you believe that the world is fair?"
If Xiao Lei had his own body now, he would definitely get goosebumps. Perhaps only at Donnan's age would ask such a childish question. It's naΓ―ve, but it's really hard to answer.
Xiao Lei thought for a moment before saying, "We are inherently unfair. Height, appearance, IQ, physical strength, family, upbringing, intelligence. But I would advise you to believe that the world is fair, that it will make you feel better, and that you will become optimistic. While this is not the case, it is worth it to deceive yourself for the sake of physical and mental health. β
Donnan was not satisfied with this ambiguous answer, and he did not want to give up, so he asked, "Then you believe that the world is unfair?"
Xiao Lei smiled in Tang Nan: "The world is the world. The practice of believing that something has some kind of meaning is meaningless in itself. The world has no obligation to make you or that girl happy. β
The two of them said, turning their heads to glance at the angry girl. Two girls are getting out of the car. "Huh?", Tang Nan saw something in the girl's backpack, vaguely fluttering.
"It's a sign that the spirit can do. Xiao Lei said.
"Psionic markers?" asked Donnan, "what are psionic markers?"
"See that person?" Xiao Lei helped Tang Nan look at a man sitting across from him. The man was about the same age as Tang Nan, thin and short, with Erlang's legs crossed, and he was also staring at Tang Nan at the moment.
"He's a thief," Sholey continued, "and he's a little bit of a crude space-time spell. He used his psionic powers to mark the things he wanted to steal. I think the target this time is the phone in the girl's backpack. When the girl gets out of the car and hasn't walked too far, he casts a spell to get the phone in his hand. β
As soon as Xiao Lei finished speaking, the train closed and started, and the thin man suddenly had two more mobile phones in his hands. The man was still staring at Tang Nan, holding up his phone and shaking it in the air before kicking it into his arms. I don't know if he did it to show off or provoke, but it is certain that he already knows that Donnan is also a psyker.
Xiao Lei helped Tang Nan stand up, patted Liang Jun beside him, left his seat, and walked to the other side of the carriage. Liang Jun looked dazed and got up to follow. The two of them waited until the next carriage to find two more seats to sit down.
Liang Jun scratched his head and was puzzled: "What are you doing?" he looked around, "Did you meet the teacher?"
Don Nan said, "Don't you smell the fart of the guy sitting next to you?"
"Oh, I patronized the game, I didn't pay attention. Liang Jun raised his nose as he spoke, Xiao Lei used a psionic spell that affected Liang Jun's sense of smell, this spell was very simple for a powerful spirit, but it was not interesting.
"It seems to smell a little. The smell of this ...... Oh my God! I'm still far away, and if I don't get in time, I'll have to throw up all my lunch. This buddy's lunch must be white wine and garlic. Such an evil fart!" Liang Jun stiffened his nose and continued to play with his mobile phone.
Everything is calm again.
Tang Nan asked inside, "Shouldn't we care if we see a thief?"
Xiao Lei said: "I am disgusted to look at such behavior. I should have punished him, but I didn't want to make a fuss. Also, that guy is one of my doppelgangers just like you. β
"Huh?"
"You heard it right, both of you are doppelgangers of mine. β
