Chapter 18 of the Lunar New Year's Short Story

I sat quietly in the silver cell, watching the white-haired corpses with bows and arrows rushing out of the cage one after another, bending their bows and arrows to shoot at me, but at the last moment, they gave up the arrows in their hands and turned away. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

There was a kind of stillness in my heart, and I was waiting, waiting for the arrival of the white-haired corpse that finally came here with an axe and opened the cage. Perhaps, it would be more appropriate to call the white-haired corpse me, a person who is in a different timeline, but is refracted by the phantom mirror to the timeline I am in......

I don't know how long I waited, but at first I was mentally counting the skeleton that came here and left with a bow and arrow. After all, every time I come, it means that I have experienced another reincarnation in this illusion mirror. But then, I got tired of calculating, and just waited silently, waiting for the end that would come.

Finally, he appeared! The second I saw him, my body returned to normal, and I slowly stood up and walked towards the cell door. He opened the cell door and let out a strange "cluck" scream. Of course I know what he's talking about, because he's who I used to be......

My hand was inserted into his chest as easily as a piece of tofu, and I smiled with relief as I saw him fall to the ground. His mission was done, and what he had to do next, just as I had done, was a long wait......

I picked up the key and went back to the end of the second staircase, the lock opened, and the door opened again. I glanced back at the majestic silver burial chamber again, and it was over......

I turned my head, sighed heavily, and stepped inside the silver gate......

Consciousness slowly returned, and a chubby dark face full of concern gradually became clear in the blurred vision.

"Holy! Wake up, wake up! Big brother, come on! Fuck, Master Jin, I thought you kid was completely ruined. Jin Buchang's excited shout came into his ears, and then Sven's face with gold-rimmed glasses appeared in front of him.

Is that......? Yes, it was Dr. Xu, and my memory began to slowly recover, and my consciousness began to gradually come to my senses.

Dr. Xu came up to me with an excited face, and kept asking questions like a cannon, as if he had forgotten that I was a patient who had just woken up from a coma: "Who are you?" Remember? Remember who you are? ”

"I ...... I am...... Sun Yi ...... "The thirsty throat made my voice a little hoarse, and the words I said seemed to stammer.

I don't know if it was my delusion, but at that moment, I felt that Dr. Xu's expression was a little strange when he looked at me, and the excited smile seemed to freeze on his face for a moment......

Fortunately, this guy is still a doctor after all, and he knows what I need most now, so he turned his head and gave an order to Jin Buchang: "Quick, go get him some water, it's okay, he needs to replenish water." ”

Jin Buchang's tone of voice for Dr. Xu's order, he didn't have any complaints at this time, he poured me a glass of water and brought it over. I gulped it down, and suddenly felt a sweet rush into my throat, and it was very comfortable.

I was in a coma for about seventeen or eighteen hours, so after a period of rest, all the functions of my body gradually returned to normal.

After I recovered, I told the two of them about my experience, and then there was the scene where Jin Buchang questioned me before......

"Boy, since you've succeeded, do you think about it now?" Jin Buchang is obviously not as interested in this complicated and cumbersome magic mirror puzzle as he is in the memory I lost, and can't wait to ask the result.

I frowned and shook my head: "No, it's still a blank slate. "It was the only mystery left for me when it was all over, and I didn't even remember a word about that memory.

Instead, I looked at Dr. Xu, who was also frowning and contemplative: "Dr. Xu, why can't I remember anything?" ”

"This ......" Dr. Xu squeezed his eyebrows, it seems that this situation can't help but stump me, even an expert-level hypnotist like him is difficult to answer perfectly: "This, in your case, I have never had a ...... among my patients" He paused and pushed his glasses: "Judging from previous cases, as long as the memory is successfully snatched back from the subconscious, then when you return to the real world, you will recover the lost memory." And only those who fail will still not be able to remember that memory......"

"You mean? Did I fail? "I opened my mouth wide in surprise, after such a thrilling, weird and terrifying illusion, you told me that I had failed, and that was something I could not accept anyway.

Doctor Xu shook his head: "According to what you said, I don't think it looks like a failure......" squeezed his eyebrows again, and then continued: "Although what you have experienced seems to be a cycle of constantly abusing and killing yourself, it is actually just a cycle of fake death. This cycle seems to enter an infinite loop, which keeps circulating, but the final result is still the cycle that ends with exit. ”

I nodded in agreement, yes, in that illusion, no matter what timeline I am, I will eventually discover the secrets and solve the mystery because of the increasing sense of crisis, so as to end it all.

"So, from this point of view, there is no such thing as success and failure in this magic mirror of yours, because it will only be a result from beginning to end......"

Dr. Xu's words once again shocked me so much that I couldn't close my mouth,! There seemed to be some truth to it, so I hurriedly asked, "But what does that mean?" ”

"What's ...... this," Dr. Xu thought for a long time before replying, "From a professional point of view, I think it's very likely that there is no memory in your brain. ”

Seeing that I was frowning and puzzled, Dr. Xu continued to explain in depth: "It can be considered that during that time, you actually entered a state of suspended animation. Syncope, shock, and many other sudden illnesses can cause damage to the brain, leaving it in a dormant state. This dormant state is different from sleep, and the brain's memory center, so to speak, stops working completely. As a result, you don't have any memories of this state at all. ”

"! What do you mean? To put it bluntly, I was knocked unconscious? Or dizzy, dizzy for seven days?! "I can't accept the fact that I don't have any lost memories in my brain! That is to say, from myself, there is no clue at all about what happened in those seven days.

I looked at Dr. Xu in front of me, nodded silently, and Jin Buchang's whispered complaint came from my ears: "Damn, Master Jin, I'll just say, today, no, it's yesterday, if you go out, it's definitely not good to go out!" You kid just don't listen, what's going on? It took a turn and it turned out to be fucking back to square one......"

Oh, yes...... Origin...... Once again, we are back to ...... Origin......
