Chapter 4: After the Rain

The rain stopped, the wind stopped, and the sky returned to its original appearance as if nothing had been done. It was exceptionally sunny and quiet, and although only the sunset remained, it could still illuminate the village that had just been baptized by the purple rain. There is no change in the village, except that the livestock are still barking, chickens and dogs are jumping, and they are scurrying around.

The unconscious people were uneven, and the outside of the village was stacked together, and some in the village fell at the door of the house, and all the way there were fainted people, as if they were asleep. The people in the house tried to come out, but they were afraid that the gorgeous purple rain was still there. I'm afraid that I'll suddenly pass out like them.

After countless attempts, the people in the house dared to boldly take half a step out of the house. After being sure that there was nothing wrong, he immediately ran to the relatives who had passed out. A large wave of people came out hugging each other. Then there was a cry, a noise, and a fantasia with the barking of the dog.

"Wow, wow, wow, wow" a few minutes later

Doctors in the hospital rushed to the hospital.

"They didn't die, they just passed out. Everyone hurriedly carried them to the hospital. "There were a few doctors who told everyone, although there were also doctors who passed out.

Fortunately, there were still a few awake left, and the nurses in the hospital vacated all the accommodating places in the hospital for everyone to come in. Several households in the vicinity of the hospital were also mobilized to make room for the unconscious to lie down and rest. The sudden event made many people pass out.

"What happened to them?"

People were eagerly asking the doctor.

"Why did you pass out for no reason?"

Someone asked anxiously.

"Will they ever wake up? Why hasn't anyone woken up yet?"

Then a whole bunch of questions were asked

"Why is it raining purple in the sky?"

"The eastern mountain had just collapsed before. Is it a warning of something? ”

"I heard there's a giant purple crystal? Could it have something to do with today's rain? ”

"How did people pass out? Is it because of the rain? ”

"Does the rain carry the virus?"

When the doctor is temporarily unable to answer.

Suddenly, rumors abounded, and questions were one after another.

Some say it's a sign of the end times.

Some people say that there is just a phenomenon happening. Do people say we're doing something wrong? Punish us. Was it the people who blew up the mountain before that provoked the mountain god? Dig out the people who blew up the mountain!

All kinds of mysterious words and ideas poured out.

In the face of phenomena that cannot be explained by science, people can only rely on metaphysics for comfort.

There is no one to answer these questions, because no one knows what the cause is. No one knows how Purple Rain is formed. No one knew that nearly two-thirds of the people in the five villages had passed out.

And in the halls of the hospital.

One of the people who had seen the village chief touching the huge purple crystal in the crowd said, "It's a huge purple crystal on the south side of the mountain." I saw the village chief touch it with his hand and turn into purple smoke. Flew into the sky and formed a purple rain! Those who passed out were killed because of the rain. And a lot of crystals! It's going to rain purple again!! The man wailed, helplessly shaking his loved ones who were lying next to him.

When everyone heard this, they fell into a panic again. One of them said, "I'll just say it's the terrible rain!" The rain was horrible, and it could pass through anything without leaving a trace. It's definitely the rain that's going to happen."

"Is it carrying some virus? Doctors can't find out," someone said.

"What if it's the next one!! There seem to be a lot of those huge crystals in the south! Someone else shouted

"Umbrellas can't stop the rain!" Said the man who saw the rain pass directly through the umbrella

Everyone fell into a flurry again.

"The end of the world!" Someone cried.

"Don't panic, although ordinary objects can't stop the rain, I found that the rain will be absorbed by the rocks and soil, etc., and then we can hide under the rocks, or where there are rocks that can resist the rain, and we won't pass out if we don't touch the rain."

At the foot of the mountain to the south, when everyone fell, he realized that they would faint if they touched the rain, and immediately made a move to avoid the rain.

Occasionally, I found the magic of purple rain, which was like nothingness, but it seemed to be absorbed by stones and loess, so as to avoid touching. In a short time, when Purple Rain was about to run into him, he pulled the village chief to the nearest rock house to hide from Purple Rain, but fortunately the two of them were fine.

The rest of the people who didn't find anything just went home to avoid the rain, and on the way they looked at the people who had passed out around them and asked what was going on, but they didn't realize that they were about to pass out, and most of them passed out. Others ran quickly to avoid contact with the rain.

And the village chief also fainted directly when he saw this scene. After all, nearly half a hundred people couldn't stand this fright when they saw such chaos, and a group of people fell in front of him.

Wait for the village chief to wake up. * Ming told all his discoveries about Purple Rain, and proposed that there might be the next Purple Rain, and also taught everyone how to avoid the contact of Purple Rain, after all, contact is fainting. The village chief was only half-convinced, as there was no direct evidence or explanation of this.

When I came out of the rock house, I found that everyone had gone to the hospital. On the way to the hospital. On the streets, on the houses. No traces of rain were found. The domestic animals also fainted until they lost their energy.

"You see, there is no trace of rain in these places, and they are all absorbed by the earth. Moreover, you can see that the purple crystal you touched with your hand before also disappeared, and it turned into gas and synthesized the clouds in the sky. That's how this rain was done! There are many more purple crystals, and the next rain will definitely come. ”

*Ming explained while accompanying the village chief to the hospital

The village chief saw all these phenomena and showed that what * Ming said was very likely, he knew that * Ming was much more subtle than ordinary people in his observation of many things or things, and there were many unexpected assumptions, what Huang Ming said may not be false, but it could not be explained that it was true, only in the hypothetical stage, there was no direct proof that it was true, and the village chief was still skeptical, after all, this kind of thing may not be so magical, or it was some kind of infectious disease.

In an instant, the purple rain could just be a strange physical phenomenon. Or pathogens. As for how it is like nothingness, it is impossible to explain.

When he arrived at the hospital, the doctor told the village chief that he had never encountered anything like this. There is no cause at all, and there have been no such cases before, so there is no way to deal with it.

"How are they?" The village chief asked eagerly.

"None of them have any abnormalities physically. It's all the same as normal people. I just don't know why they passed out. Not fainting, to be exact. Because their brains are active and awake. Just like you are at this point. Unlike you, they're in a coma. The doctor said puzzled

"Unconscious, you say? Are they all alive? The village chief asked

"Yes, they are all alive," the doctor replied

"It's like, it's like their bodies are disconnected from their brains. That is, it is similar to a vegetative person, but, but it is not. They are like losing sensation in their limbs, and even their facial features are unconscious. The pupils didn't respond, and I really didn't know what was going on. The doctor added

"The brain can't control the body anymore? Or something else? *Ming asked

"No, no, they breathe on their own and they feel pain. It's just that no body reacts. When we cause them pain. If we look at the EEG, we can know that the brain responds, but the limbs do not, that is, the nerves can transmit information to the brain without receiving feedback from the brain. The doctor replied

"Could it be a virus or something?" The village chief asked

"Unlikely, it can't be detected at all, or it's a new type that we haven't touched, but the body is not abnormal, and the metabolism is normal, so it should be possible to rule out the possibility of the virus," the doctor replied as best he knew

"And it looks like those animals will be affected too!" The doctor said thoughtfully

"Those chickens and dogs? How is it also affected? No wonder I hear dogs barking and chickens barking all the time. The village chief said.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew through *Ming's head, and the back of his head felt cold. I shook unconsciously. The clock on the wall ticked just past nine o'clock.

"No! You have to explain everything to everyone, otherwise it will cause even more disaster to everyone next time! Gotta find out everything. *Ming said something to himself.

The village chief looked at *Ming, and seemed to understand his thoughts and agreed with his approach, although he was not sure. But after all, it is a possibility, a countermeasure.

So *Ming ran to the hospital lobby and explained his thoughts to everyone in the quarrel of everyone! Tell us how to avoid rain.

After listening to this, everyone agreed with *Ming's statement. In my panic, I couldn't understand why there was no trace of it after the rain. *When you say this, everyone knows a thing or two.

So those who passed out were placed in places where they would not be touched by the rain. Lie between the corners.
