Chapter 57: Arrival and Departure (I)

In the modern world, in a remote county in a province in northwest China, the intensive care ward of a people's hospital

"Ahh

In a slightly messy hospital bed, a young male patient curled up and let out a scream of extreme pain.

The heart-rending pain distorted the patient's expression, he gasped heavily, his chest rose and fell rapidly, his eyes were wide open, and his forehead was covered with thick beads of sweat, but he still struggled to ring the electric bell with the last bit of strength...... Several nurses slammed open the door and rushed in, injecting oxygen and sedatives, and finally made him reluctantly quiet. But after the nurse left, a regular "got" sound could still be heard—the patient's whole body was shaking and convulsing in pain, and the bed was shaking slightly.

It hurts, it hurts, it hurts

People who have never had cancer really can't understand the desperate pain of a terminal cancer patient - it is a punishment that is close to collapse, as if all the organs in the body are screaming, and it is impossible to describe what it feels like except to know that it is pain.

He struggled to roll over on the hospital bed and change to a more comfortable position, but with just a slight exertion of muscles, the residual tide that remained on his body and did not dissipate would be pulled. The initial pain only caused him to let out a slight moan, but the rest of his body that was naturally affected by the pain immediately exploded: in an instant, the pain spread out of control

“…… Ha-ha-"

The pain of being in purgatory was beyond the young man's endurance, and he opened his mouth to the limit like a fish thrown ashore, but he was so painful that he could not make a sound, he could only gasp for breath, and once again subconsciously curled up in a ball because of the pain all over his body...... After a long time, the sharp pain of the eruption finally began to fade slowly, but there was still a faint stinging pain that made him unable to truly regain his calm...... The blue-and-white hospital gown he was wearing had been soaked with sweat, emitting a strong smell, and a large number of conspicuous sweat stains could be seen on the white sheets.

After a while, he let out a long sigh of relief, his eyes also regained some lightness, and at the same time, he felt that his lips seemed to crack a little because of Yu Dryness, but his body still couldn't move freely, so he could only stretch out his tongue and lick his lips helplessly......

-- While the patient was gasping for breath, two officers in military uniforms walked in, and one of them couldn't help but shake his head lightly and let out a sigh of pity as he saw the young man's emaciated appearance, and even his hair had fallen from chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

“…… Wu Xiaoyu, 32 years old, orphaned, divorced, and has no children to descend. Formerly a cook in a field unit of the People's Liberation Army, he later retired and opened a shop, and was diagnosed with lymphoma six months ago, after the failure of the operation, the cancer cells have spread to the whole body, which cannot be saved, and it is expected to live for another three months to six months at most...... Alas, the young man is still so young, and he is already terminally ill of cancer, what a pitiful. An elderly officer with gray sideburns said lamentingly.

“…… Compared to those poor people who can't even pay the surgery fee and can only wait for death at home, his experience is already okay......" Another middle-aged officer pursed his lips disapprovingly, and at the same time shook the text in his hand, "...... What's more, he is now in time for a good time and a chance to live - if it were six months ago, I'm afraid even billionaires wouldn't have such a chance."

“…… I have to consult him first. Of course, I think he'll say yes. The old officer replied.

Then, Wu Xiaoyu, a terminally ill cancer patient lying in a hospital bed, received an unbelievable questionnaire -- two military officers asked him if he would give up a qiē in order to survive and carry out a lifelong secret mission for the country. Of course, in return, the state can cure him of his terminal illness for free. But as a price, after recovering, Wu Xiaoyu had to sell one of his lives to the country......

“…… When you recover, the state will send you to a strange place, where you will never return home again, and you will never have the opportunity to talk to your family on the phone or communicate with your family. The strange places you go to may bring you death, or they may bring you a new and colorful life. Now is your only chance to choose...... Please make a choice within 10 minutes whether you want to sign this non-disclosure agreement......"

“…… me and have such a good thing? Do you want to use me as a guinea pig to test some new medicine? Or go to a desert base to test the radiation residue of a nuclear weapon? Or go to some troubled area to be cannon fodder? ”

After listening to what the two officers said, Wu Xiaoyu's first reaction was not ecstatic, but the alarm bell sounded in his heart - he was born as an orphan, he has experienced ups and downs since he was a child, and he knows that people's hearts are sinister: Generally speaking, free things are often the most expensive, and cheap goods are never good

But helplessly shì is stronger than people, and now that he is sick like this, he has no days to live, no matter how unbelievable it sounds, he will subconsciously want to catch it...... What's more, he is an ordinary poor bachelor, and he is not a beautiful girl of a young age, and there is nothing to be deceived - the little money he earned by getting up early and opening a restaurant in the dark has basically gone into the bottomless pit of the hospital, and there is not much left. Even if you want to cheat the organ, which buyer will want the organ of a terminal cancer patient?

Alas, since it is the state that comes forward, then this matter should be somewhat reliable. Rather than slowly decay in this ward, it is better to seize the opportunity and give it a go. Anyway, it won't be worse than it is now--let's just sacrifice my life for the country and become a death squad

Wu Xiaoyu, who was tortured by illness and was about to be unable to think normally, moaned slightly, and finally signed a "agree" reply.

In this way, a magical door to a new world quietly opened to Wu Xiaoyu.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

A few days later, Ms. Wu was anesthetized, stuffed into an ambulance, and left the hospital for good.

It didn't take long for him to open his eyes again in a daze amid the unfamiliar sound of the waves.

Blue sky, white clouds, blue sea, sandy beach, breeze...... And, the endless, lush coconut groves?

At this moment, the tropical beach scenery that suddenly appeared in front of him made Wu Xiaoyu, who had never seen the sea in his life, unable to help but be shocked for a while.

Extremely frightened, he subconsciously reached out and touched his head, and then he turned out to be a long-lost fluffy feeling, and he couldn't help but be shocked again - the hair on his head that had been lost due to the treatment of cancer had grown back at some point

In addition, the terrible pain that has tormented his body for a long time seems to have disappeared without a trace, and his internal organs are indescribably comfortable

――Hey, is it true that the government is hiding some incredible black technology to cure its terminal cancer?

Under the surprise, Wu Xiaoyu stood up with a bone, while touching his body, which was still thin and weak, but obviously ruddy, while looking at the surrounding environment, and then found himself lying in a huge steel tube structure field tent, facing the open tent door, outside the tent is the first thing he saw when he opened the tropical beach scenery. Then under him was a straw mat, with a straw pillow and a thin blanket.

The top of the camouflage tent is painted with a huge red cross on a white background, and the smell of disinfectant water is permeated, much like a field hospital in a past exercise. On the floor of the tent lay six other men, men, women, and children, all of whom were still asleep and had not yet woken up.

In addition, there was a middle-aged man wearing a hospital gown like himself, who was standing on the grass outside the tent, strolling around.

As if hearing the sound of himself getting up, the middle-aged man turned his head, first looked at Wu Xiaoyu a few times, and then stretched out a hand, greeted with a smile, and said, "...... Hello, my name is Chen Dong. This little brother, I don't know what you call it? Did you also sign an agreement with the state? ”

“…… Ah, my name is Wu Xiaoyu. It was true that I signed an agreement with the state before I came. Wu Xiaoyu grabbed his hand and shook it, and replied at the same time, "...... Brother Chen, did you also sign an agreement with the state in the hospital? And do you know where this place is? ”

“…… Yes, I didn't pay attention when I was playing in Hong Kong and Macau, and I contracted AIDS...... But now it seems to be cured. ”

Chen Dong smiled bitterly, "...... I woke up two or three minutes before you, where would I know what's going on? ”

“…… Uh, I'm in the advanced stage of lymphoma," Wu Xiaoyu replied with a sigh, while subconsciously retreating a few steps, trying to stay a little farther away from Chen Dong. Seeing this, Chen Dong had to smile helplessly again, but he didn't care too much, it seemed that he was used to it.

Anyway, the two of them walked out of the tent together, and walked around the neighborhood, finding a vast beach ahead, and the sound of waves and seagulls was constantly heard. Behind it is a dense tropical forest tens of meters high, and only a simple road passes between the coconut grove and the beach, leading to the end of the view. The grass on both sides of the road is littered with brightly colored fruits and flowers, and some never-before-seen insects flutter among the foliage. The air is filled with the fresh scent of plants, combined with the salty smell of the sea breeze......

Standing on the beach and looking out, with his excellent eyesight, Wu Xiaoyu clearly saw that in the opposite bay, there was a small town with a science fiction atmosphere - under the tall wind turbine array that stood like a forest, there were pieces of silver glittering solar panels, as well as various sci-fi style villas, residential buildings, office buildings, and even a skyscraper with more than 20 floors in the sun, and the metal roof and glass curtain wall were reflecting the dazzling light. The surrounding area is a large flower garden and vegetable garden, where all kinds of vegetables and fruits are grown......

“… It looks like it's in some tropical tourist attraction, but the beach is really clean......"

Chen Dong looked down at this empty and uninhabited beach, and found that in addition to some driftwood and seaweed, there was no waste garbage such as drink bottles, plastic bags and other waste that can be found everywhere in any modern beach.

“…… Alas, we must have been brought into some kind of wilderness, but looking at the houses opposite, it doesn't look like it......"

As for where this place was, Wu Xiaoyu and Chen Dong discussed for a while, but they didn't come to any conclusions. However, the "sci-fi" town on the other side of the bay, which looks very advanced at first glance, and the five-star red flag fluttering on the top of the buildings, still make them feel a little relieved - they are not left to live in the wilderness on an uninhabited island, and it doesn't seem to be in a foreign country...... In that case, there seems to be nothing to be afraid of.

Out of vigilance for this unfamiliar land, Wu Xiaoyu and Chen Dong did not go far enough, and after taking a few glances at the town across the bay from a distance, and after confirming that there were no people nearby, they turned around and turned back to the tent where they were lying at the beginning. At this time, the remaining people in the tent also woke up one after another, exchanged names and identities with each other, and found that there were all people from all over the world, and then when they didn't know what to do next, an off-road vehicle drove from a distance and stopped near the tent.

Immediately afterwards, a fat man dressed in a field training shirt stepped out of the car and announced to the bewildered crowd in the tent:

“…… Hello everyone, my surname is Guo, and I will be your instructor from today onwards. Over the next few days, I will accompany you to familiarize yourself with the environment and prepare for the next step. I know you must have a lot of questions in your stomachs right now, like, where is this place......"

He looked around at everyone meaningfully, everyone unconsciously quieted down, and even a middle-aged aunt was so nervous that she held her breath for a while...... However, when the final answer was about to be announced, Wu Xiaoyu's mood became calm, and the ups and downs of the past year, the ups and downs, and the bumpy experience of repeatedly struggling on the edge of life and death had already made his already tenacious heart more endurable.

“…… First of all, geographically, this is the Sanya ...... of Hainan Island"

Seeing someone show a knowing expression, a mischievous smile bloomed on the fat man's face surnamed Guo, "However, this land is not the Sanya you remember - you are no longer in the familiar time and space now, because this year is the year 63 A.D., you are welcome to travel through time and space, come to a new world, and then, in the original world, you are all dead......"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

At the same time, Wang Qiu and his mother Wang Meiling did not get out of the car, but sat quietly in the car, looking at the frightened appearance of the newcomers, "...... Six men and two women...... The youngest one was at least twenty-five or sixteen years old. Wang Qiu commented, "...... Most of them are over thirty years old, and the oldest one looks almost fifty, long past the age when he can play the protagonist of the novel...... How did the country get such a bunch of uncles and aunts to come over? Feeling a little lacking in energy, aren't you going to get a group of high school students to save the world like in Japanese anime? ”

“…… What can you do with a bunch of high school students? They have no technical skills to use, and they don't have the experience of living and working independently -- they are not Nobita Nobita who makes saving the world a hobby," Wang Meiling rolled her eyes...... Nowadays, children are so daydreaming, and they are generally dragged to five people and six people, in case you get a Long Aotian type of middle two sick over, you just wait to cry to death."

“…… Uh, well, if there really is a dragon Aotian coming over, this team really can't be brought," Wang Qiu replied with a sneering touch.

-- Generally speaking, the more typical "Dragon Aotian" protagonists in Xiaobai Shuangwen's text are usually arrogant and arrogant middle school fantasists, who not only feel good about themselves to the point of being outrageous, but also always maintain a certain unreasonable arrogance mentality -- their general routine is: Although I have neither great talents, nor any noble status, nor much money, but don't bully the poor young man, as long as you dare not give me a chance, when I am developed, I will definitely kill your whole family. If you give me a chance, then I will take your share of it as a matter of course, and if you obediently give me a little brother and then give me a wife, I can also consider keeping you alive, otherwise it will be your fault, and you will kill yourself......

If someone asks him why he drags like this, there is always only one answer: the traverser doesn't explain

Obviously, such people are absolutely inseparable in society, and it can even be said that they are simply looking for death. But for those middle school students who can't tell the difference between fiction and reality, there may be some people who want to imitate this style of dragon arrogance with envy - after all, it's cool enough

There is no way, in this impetuous society of leisure and hard work, especially on the Internet, where all thoughts and emotions are extreme, there are always some people who want: anarchist personal freedom, social welfare, Nazi national policy, militarist international exchanges, capitalist commodity economy, and the sexual openness of primitive society...... In fact, it is better for such people to go to religion to anesthetize themselves.

Ahem, to get back to the point, all in all, out of the requirements of discipline, obedience, and the ability to live independently, the selection scope of the country's first experimental crossing team was first a terminally ill retired or active-duty military police officer, followed by a terminally ill or life sentence in prison, usually the kind that had served a long sentence and appeared to be good, and then the disabled in welfare institutions. Finally, if you have a qiē shun lì, maybe some disabled children will be recruited from the orphanage, brought to the world to be cured, and then trained as a reserve force......

In general, this extremely rigorous personnel selection method made the first batch of nationally organized teams of immigrants from another world basically calmly accept the reality of traveling through another world, and began to observe this strange new world attentively.

While these people are ignorant and stepping into the new world, another group of people are physically and mentally exhausted and carrying their luggage and embarking on the road home.

“…… Okay, the first batch of immigrants on the list have all been brought in and treated, and there is nothing to see next. Son, hurry up and borrow another pocket from Doraemon, and in a while there will be a group of time-travelers who have opted out and will return to the modern world......"
