Chapter 1: The Mysterious "Villain"
The First People's Hospital of Qingyang City.
Fang Ye carried two bags of gifts and followed his parents into Ward 302 of the inpatient department.
The atmosphere in the ward was depressing, and there were many people around, all of whom were relatives of Fang Ye's family.
Lying on the hospital bed was Fang Ye's eldest aunt Yu Aiguo, who was less than sixty years old and had advanced liver cancer.
Looking at Yu Aiguo, who was lying on the hospital bed so thin that he was almost out of shape, his whole body was filled with various tubes, Fang Ye's heart was sour.
Fang Ye was born in the countryside, spent his childhood in the countryside, and did not come to Qingyang City until he was in junior high school.
For a period of time, he once studied in Yuaiguo, which belongs to Qingyang City, and this eldest aunt was very good to him.
For the eldest aunt, he has deep feelings.
Yu Aiguo was discharged from the army in the 80s and assigned to a well-known local parts processing factory, and he has been a driver all his life, and he is a sincere person.
In Fang Ye's impression, the eldest aunt loved to laugh very much, and every time she smiled, her black face was set off and her teeth were extremely white.
This time, it has only been three months since the liver cancer was detected, and the condition has deteriorated rapidly.
Yesterday, he fell into a coma completely, and the hospital also issued a critical illness notice, so that the family could be prepared.
Today, Fang Ye's family came here to visit him, and they also meant to see the last side of their eldest aunt Yu Aiguo.
Many relatives from each family came, and they were all crowded into the ward, and the fruit baskets and gifts were piled up on both sides.
Fang Ye's cousin Yu Danli and her cousin-in-law Wang Bin were on the side, and his aunt Fang Ping's eyes were red and she was wiping her tears.
"Ono, go see your eldest aunt."
Fang Ye's mother, Yun Cuilan, pushed Fang Ye and motioned for him to step forward.
Fang Ye pursed his lips and walked to the hospital bed.
Looking at the eldest aunt Yu Aiguo, who was so thin that he was only skinny and bones, Fang Ye's eyes couldn't help but turn red, and he was about to say something, when suddenly his right wrist was slightly hot.
Suddenly, in his eyes, the surroundings changed to a different picture.
In his eyes, everyone's bodies began to become transparent, and in this transparent body, there was another slightly smaller body.
If the outer body is just the shell of an egg, the smaller inside is their real body.
The most amazing and weird change is Yu Aiguo lying on the hospital bed.
A fiery red flame floated around Yu Aiguo's body, and this flame was scorching his body.
Yu Aiguo, who was transparent on the outside, was the black and thin appearance in Fang Ye's eyes before, with his eyes closed and unconscious.
But inside this transparent shell, there is another completely different Yu Aiguo.
This Yu Aiguo, his eyes were open, his whole body was convulsed, his face was full of pain and despair, his mouth was wide open, and he seemed to be screaming and struggling desperately, shaking with various tubes inserted all over his body.
But he seemed to be sealed inside an outer shell, unable to break free or make his own voice.
He could only watch his wife, children, and relatives standing around him sigh in grief, but he could do nothing but struggle in despair and suffer endless pain.
A slender translucent iron thorn that stretched out out of nowhere stabbed into the heart of Yu Aiguo's head suddenly.
Immediately, Yu Aiguo's whole body trembled violently and twitched, tears flowed sideways, and he seemed to be screaming desperately, and his face was completely distorted.
The iron thorn continued to penetrate mercilessly, piercing into his head, through his brain, through his mouth, through his neck, into his chest, into his abdomen, and finally completely through his body, revealing from below.
Yu Aiguo was completely pierced on this slender iron thorn, like a roast chicken pierced on the wire.
The iron spikes skewered Yu Aiguo and began to spin and roll on the fiery red flames around him, like roasting chicken and duck.
The tubes that filled his body delivered all kinds of nutrients and medicines, just like seasonings injected into Yu Aiguo's body, his dying struggles, desperate screams, and heart-rending pain only made him more delicious and tasty to be grilled.
Grilling and rolling in the fiery red flames, Yu Aiguo, who was impaled, had stopped struggling, and only his body was still trembling and twitching slightly.
In the transparent shell, the other Yu Aiguo who was pierced and grilled, his skin slowly turned golden.
The juice flowed, dripping in the flames, and Fang Ye faintly heard a snorting sound.
In a trance, he even smelled a smell of roast chicken and duck.
The scene in front of me seems to be real and illusory,
Fang Ye's face was pale, without the slightest trace of blood, and his whole body trembled slightly.
The whole person seemed to fall into a state of dementia, and watched the iron thorns skewered Yu Aiguo, who was grilled into a golden brown dripping with oil, slowly pulled it out of the outer body, and soon disappeared into the ward.
Yu Aiguo, lying on the hospital bed, only had a shell full of tubes left.
A heart-rending cry suddenly sounded all around, waking Fang Ye up from his dreamlike state.
His aunt Fang Ping had already fallen on the hospital bed, crying bitterly.
Just now, Yu Aiguo stopped breathing and left.
Relatives from all sides surrounded him, and his mother Yun Cuilan, cousin Yu Danli, eldest aunt, second aunt, etc., all wiped their tears and cried.
Fang Ye was squeezed to the back, his face was as pale as a piece of paper, his left hand gently stroked the bracelet on his right wrist and wore a black jade bracelet, his heart fluctuated.
Because of Yu Aiguo's death, his heart was full of grief, but more than that, he was afraid, and bursts of chills rose from the soles of his feet.
This chill caused by fear filled his whole body and penetrated deep into the bone marrow of his soul.
The strange scene just now, which seemed to be real and illusory, was not the first time Fang Ye had seen it.
Ever since he had acquired this black jade bracelet a year ago, he had possessed this almost eerie ability.
A year ago, Fang Ye had just graduated from college, and a few classmates who had played well made an appointment to go to the surrounding Qingyang Mountain to play, and in this Qingyang Mountain, he unintentionally picked up a small piece of ink jade.
The first time I saw this black jade Fang Ye, I was attracted by it, this black jade was bright in color, and there were strange and exquisite lines faintly shining inside.
Because he liked it, Fang Ye strung it with a bracelet and made it into a black jade bracelet and wore it on his right wrist.
Since he got this black jade bracelet, he has begun to encounter strange and even supernatural events one after another.
When this black jade bracelet heats up, the body of whether it is a human, a cat or a dog or other animal will become translucent or even transparent.
And within this transparent body shell, there is another slightly smaller "little man".
Under normal circumstances, the "villain" in this shell is exactly the same as the person outside.
Only when this person is in a state of illness, the "villain" in this shell will become different.
or there are flames, or there are water currents, and even knives, axes, iron thorns, and other terrifying things that seem to be real and illusory, tormenting and ravaging this "villain".
And like the situation where the "villain" in Yu Aiguo's body was burned by the terrifying flames and dragged away after the iron thorns pierced it, Fang Ye had seen it for the first time in the past year.
