Chapter 31: There is no choice
Darkness, there is still endless darkness in front of you. Luckily, I could still smell the smell of disinfectant in the air, as well as the small sounds outside the room and around me.
Day after night, and then day after day passed. Although Jian Xiaozhu couldn't open his eyes, he couldn't even send any signals to the outside world. But from the information she could receive from the outside world, she came to the conclusion that she was now back in the real world. It's just that she is lying in the hospital, diagnosed as vegetative, and relying on medical equipment and infusions to sustain her life.
And, another thing that surprised her was that she had been in a vegetative state for more than three months, and it had been almost three months since she started wearing books.
In other words, the passage of time in the world in the book is the same as the passage of time in the real world.
Well, in this world, the interview of civil servants must have ended.
In another world that exists in the novel, Zhang Yunzhu is also dead.
Thinking of the dizziness symptoms that had continued to appear since he entered the Guiyun Tower, Jian Xiaozhu thought that it was estimated that the effect of the poison began to attack at that time.
Unexpectedly, the poison actually poisoned herself, Jian Xiaozhu was afraid for a while, but fortunately she didn't give Zhang Ruohe to drink, otherwise she not only hurt a beautiful young woman, but also put herself in prison.
I didn't expect that the medicine that was finally refined would make such an oolong, and it would kill people. This made Jian Xiaozhu think to herself, it was really difficult for her, a half-baked novice, to refine an effective poison.
It's just that after this death, Jian Xiaozhu did not continue to wear books, but returned to the real world.
However, I finally returned to the place where I had been thinking about it for a long time, but I had to face becoming a vegetative person and being in such a situation where life was worse than death. This made Jian Xiaozhu only feel a burst of sadness that he had never felt before. But she couldn't scream to lament the injustice of fate, she could only continue to lie down like a person in a coffin, and smell the aroma of food coming from the side of the hospital bed.
Jian Xiaozhu heard that beside the hospital bed, Jian's mother said while eating: "Xiaozhu, my mother made stir-fried pork with sharp peppers, braised pork ribs, spicy chicken wings, fried lamb with green onions, and beer duck today. These are your favorite foods. If you want to eat, wake up. Mom saw you move a few days ago, can you smell the aroma of these foods? ”
However, Jian's father said, "The doctor has said it, you must have seen it wrong." You see you haven't slept well for the past few days, and you get up early in the morning and toss so many dishes. I think you better go and rest, and don't cook so many meat dishes in the future, we are both very old, and it is not good for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular. ”
Jane's mother was angry: "You just care about yourself!" ”
Father Jane was aggrieved: "Doesn't I care about you!" Moreover, I just feel that if something happens to the two of us, who will take care of Xiaozhu. ”
Mother Jane: "Bah, crow's mouth!" ”
With that, continue to shake the lunch box in your hand, trying to let the aroma of the food spread in the air as much as possible. Jian Xiaozhu smelled the aroma of food on the hospital bed, only to feel that she was suffering as if she was suffering in hell now, and only hoped that Jian's mother would take the lunch box away quickly.
And Jian's father said to Jian's mother at this time: "Be careful, don't drip oil on Xiaozhu's quilt." ”
With that, the two of them stretched out their own small table and began to eat.
Jian Xiaozhu listened to the sound of eating and broadcasting from the scene, and felt that the darkness in front of her was not darkness, but an abyss of despair. So she roared in her heart, she finally returned to the real world, why did she have to endure such suffering. If you keep it this way, you might as well stay in the world of fiction.
Just when Jian Xiaozhu was thinking like this, suddenly, a voice appeared in the bottom of Jian Xiaozhu's heart.
"Do you want to go back to the world you used to be?"
"What?" Jian Xiaozhu was puzzled: "Did I have auditory hallucinations?" ”
However, the voice sounded again: "It's not an auditory hallucination, I really exist in the range you can perceive." ”
Although Jian Xiaozhu felt incredible, she still asked, "Can you hear my voice?" ”
Voice: "Yes." ”
Jian Xiaozhu was shocked: "Who are you?" ”
Voice: "It doesn't matter who I am. But I want to know your true desires. ”
Jian Xiaozhu: "My wish? Of course, I woke up quickly, ate my mother's cooking, and then went to find a job as a fresh graduate. ”
Voice: "There is no way to make this wish come true?". ”
Jian Xiaozhu gasped: "Why? ”
Voice: "You have only two choices, the first is that you can stay in the world you exist in and live in the state you are in. ”
Jian Xiaozhu: "Stop! Do you mean that if I'm going to stay in the real world, I'm going to have to live in a vegetative state? ”
Voice: "So to speak. ”
Jian Xiaozhu was angry: "I'll go, isn't this a way to make life worse than death!" What about the second option? ”
Voice: "The second choice is to return to the world you stayed in before and continue to live as Zhang Yunzhu." ”
"Wait!" Jian Xiaozhu was puzzled: "Zhang Yunzhu...... No, it's me, I'm not dead? ”
Voice: "No." ”
Jian Xiaozhu: "It seems that I was not poisoned by the poison I made. But why do I keep traveling back into the novels I've written? ”
Voice: "I'll tell you when the time comes." ”
Jian Xiaozhu sneered: "If you don't say it, I'll guess it myself." Are you similar to the existence of a system in an infinite stream novel? ”
Voice: "The definition of a system is everything in the world of the future." I, on the other hand, come from a very old abyss. I existed before the birth of the world you live in. ”
Jian Xiaozhu: "Then what are you?" ”
Voice: "You can never know about existence." ”
Jian Xiaozhu: "......"
Voice: "The time is almost up, tell me your choice." ”
Jian Xiaozhu listened to her parents' conversation, although she didn't want to leave them, it would be too painful for her to exist in this world like this all the time. So she said, "Anyway, I don't want to exist in this world in this way." ”
Voice: "I see." ”
Jian Xiaozhu still had a stomach full of words to ask this voice, but his consciousness was withdrawn in an instant. When she opened her eyes again, she saw a familiar sight again. She was lying on the bed that belonged to Zhang Yunzhu, and next to the bed hung her familiar lilac curtain.
Jian Xiaozhu remembered that when she fainted, she was obviously in Guiyun Tower. However, she has now returned to Zhang Yunzhu's home.
So, there is only one possibility.
"Am I doing a rollback?"
Jian Xiaozhu got up and couldn't help but wonder if she had returned to the moment when she first came to this world. And Caixiu pushed the door in at this time, and said in surprise: "Miss, you are awake!" ”
Then, Caixiu rushed out and shouted, "Miss is awake!" ”
Jian Xiaozhu thought, judging from the order in which she first came to this world and met people, it should be the fourth lady who came in later.
It's just that as the sound of hurried footsteps gets closer and closer. Soon, Jian Xiaozhu heard Zhang Shanqing's voice: "Xiaozhuzi, you finally woke up!" ”
Zhang Shanqing ran into Jian Xiaozhu's room in surprise. And Jian Xiaozhu saw that behind him, Murong Yi walked in with a smile on his face.
