Liu Xiaodong thought to himself, Guo Yixin and her father must be uneasy, and they must ask about the situation in person. Just thinking about it, Guo Yixin's father had already spoken: "Xiao Liu, I didn't agree with Yingxin to go, but she is too stubborn, my mother and I are not in good health and can't accompany her, but I'm still relieved to go with you!" It's just that I have to tell you something......"

"Actually, I also advised her not to go, uncle?"

"This child has a relatively rare disease, you may not have heard of it, called dissociation! is a mental illness. When she has this attack, she will feel that she and others have completely become microorganisms, microorganisms that she hates so much! The disease is more likely to be triggered when she is away from home, and she must divert her attention when she attacks, otherwise she will be very depressed and painful......"

Liu Xiaodong was stunned, he heard of this disease for the first time! So I didn't hear much about what I said later, until the other end of the phone asked, "Hey, are you there?" Liu Xiaodong stammered: "What, how can it be ......?" She used to be in good health! Then, the uncle persuaded her not to go! ”

"Her mother and I persuaded it, but it was useless! I'm telling you this, just to prepare you mentally for trouble......"

"Uncle! It's not a nuisance, this disease sounds ...... What can I do if I get sick on the road? ”

There was no sound on the other end of the phone all of a sudden, and after a while, Guo Yingxin's voice came: "Liu Xiaodong, first, my illness is not as serious as my father said, otherwise I can still go to Lop Nur a few days ago?" Second, don't persuade me again! I have to go to Lop Nur, I don't go with you, I have to go myself! …… But I don't embarrass you about this, if I'm really worried, I won't go with you, I'll figure it out myself! ”

It seems that no one can stop Guo Yixin from going to Lop Nur. Liu Xiaodong thought that if she flatly refused, Guo Yixin and others might make her parents even more worried.

"I know, old classmate! I'll take you there, wait for my call. ”

After hanging up the phone, Liu Xiaodong immediately searched for "dissociative disorder" on the computer. He didn't even know how to write these words, but fortunately he could spell the word in pinyin.

After watching the Internet for a long time, Liu Xiaodong probably learned that dissociative disorder may be manifested as amnesia, multiple personalities, loss of self-feeling, etc., and the cause is extreme mental stress or trauma.

Liu Xiaodong shook his head and sighed, how could an old classmate get such a strange disease! What else happened to her before the Lop Nur accident? Where does extreme stress come from?

Today is Wednesday, at half past seven in the morning, Liu Xiaodong was standing at the gate of the community with his suitcase in tow. It was another cloudy day, and the autumn breeze lifted the jacket on his body and got into the thin black sweater, Liu Xiaodong felt a chill. Twenty minutes later, an empty taxi finally arrived.

After Liu Xiaodong went to Wanxin Garden to pick up Guo Yixin, he hurried to Yanzhou Airport, where they caught the plane at 10 o'clock in the morning, and there was a flight to Hami today.

Yanzhou City is located in central China, from Yanzhou to Lop Nur in northwest China, if you choose to travel by car for the whole trip, it will take two or three days to arrive.

Liu Xiaodong's plan is to fly to Hami first, and then drive from Hami to the town of Lop Nur. Guo Yingxin asked the unit for a week's public vacation, and Liu Xiaodong's visit time was also planned for a week.

Guo Yingxin was wearing a beige windbreaker, and her long hair was combed into a ponytail. Although the old classmate looked haggard and pale, Liu Xiaodong, who walked aside, could still feel the rate of turning back.

At half past nine, they boarded the plane on time. Liu Xiaodong was secretly surprised, he didn't forget anything with him on this business trip, and thought about it carefully, except for the underwear that he didn't bring a change of clothes...... This is the best time in the history of Liu Xiaodong's business trip.

Liu Xiaodong doesn't want to show off in front of his old classmates, and he is a female classmate who needs to be taken care of.

The club originally said that it was okay to send a colleague to accompany Liu Xiaodong, but then the president changed his mind again.

Guo Yingxin didn't talk much along the way, and most of the time she just wore headphones to listen to music, or closed her eyes to recuperate.

The plane arrived at Hami airport on time. Liu Xiaodong went to the car rental company he had booked as planned to rent an off-road vehicle, and he chose a black Jeep Liberty Light.

It takes seven or eight hours to drive from Hami to Lop Nur town, so they can only stay overnight in Hami and then rush to Lop Nur the next morning.

Early the next morning, Liu Xiaodong drove out of Hami City in a free light and galloped west along Provincial Highway 235. It didn't take long for the car to drive into the vast Gobi wilderness, and Liu Xiaodong felt the desolation of the great northwest for the first time, and if it weren't for the occasional telephone pole on the side of the road, he would have suspected that he was on lifeless Mars.

The journey is long, and at the beginning, Guo Yixin listened to the headset, and talked to Liu Xiaodong without a match. Slowly, the conversation between the two opened, but Liu Xiaodong tried his best to avoid Guo Yixin's sensitive topic.

"I know you'd love to ask me about those two things......" Guo Yixin said suddenly.

Liu Xiaodong smiled: "Yes, what you say is very in the style of our exploration column!" Which two? ”

Guo Yixin didn't answer. She looked at the bare hills outside the car, took a deep breath, as if making a lot of determination, and said, "I'll tell you what happened to us that day." ”

The smile on Liu Xiaodong's face dissipated, he held the steering wheel in his hand, and turned his head to look at his old classmate.

"On that day, we set off from the town of Lop Nur at about nine o'clock in the morning......"

Liu Xiaodong almost held his breath, pushing the already unfast speed even lower, worried about missing a word.

“…… When I woke up again, I was already lying in the clinic! Guo Yixin raised the drink bottle to drink water again, and found that there was no water. In the process of telling, she clutched the drink bottle with both hands, and drank saliva when she was nervous, and just drank the two bottles of pulse.

Liu Xiaodong licked his lips and frowned very highly: "It's really incredible, it's quite crazy!" But I don't feel like a hallucination, you've been talking to me for a long time, how many details will there be in the hallucination? ”

"The suspicion of the police is also normal, my disease is to hate people who do not follow the rules, and that voice actually has a similar opinion, this is too much of a coincidence!"

"Oh! Your ...... Hate people who don't follow the rules? Liu Xiaodong turned his head to look at her again.

Guo Yixin sighed and said with a wry smile: "Regarding my illness, this is the second thing you want to know...... I'll tell you more about it later. As he spoke, he took out his headphones and stuffed them into his ears, picked out his favorite music from his mobile phone and listened to it. She needs to divert her attention now.

The road ahead was very straight, Liu Xiaodong put his hands on the steering wheel blankly, and his thoughts were immersed in the strange and terrifying encounter of his old classmates.

I don't know how long it took to drive, Guo Yixin suddenly straightened up, pointed to a small room in the distance and said, "There is a sentry post in front, prepare your documents, and those who are soldiers must check!" ”

It's time to get to the town of Lop Nur, and all passing cars have to be checked and registered. This was the first checkpoint they encountered, and Lop Nur was a military restricted area, and such checkpoints were not uncommon.

Liu Xiaodong looked at his watch, and it was already past seven o'clock in the afternoon.

A soldier with a gun on his back registered their ID cards and asked them what they were coming for. Their car was quickly released.

The jeep continued to drive forward, but the mystery in Liu Xiaodong's heart lingered.
