"Drip-drip-drip-"

A sharp and piercing chirp sounded in his ears, and Mark sat up from the hospital bed "Zeng", he breathed heavily, looking at the surrounding scene in a bit of confusion, where is this?

He looked at the machine that sent out the instrument, it was a heart rate monitor, Mark subconsciously reached out and touched his chest, his heart was still beating, and it was beating steadily.

Looking left and right on the bed, Mark lifted the quilt and stepped out of the bed, and he saw some paper pasted on the wall at the door, writing some words such as the schedule of medication.

Just as Mark was trying to decipher some information from those words, there was a sudden knock on his door, and he stood up vigilantly, turned his head, and saw a man who looked exactly like him standing outside the door.

The man's expression was indifferent, and he said impatiently, "What are you doing here?" Come with me! ”

Mark didn't figure out what was going on, but the man rushed in, grabbed Mark's arm, and dragged him out, and after being chased out of the door, Mark reacted, and he pushed the man away, then put on a defensive posture and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The man turned around, looked Mark up and down, and said indifferently, "I'm Jack, your other personality, and when you passed out and were unconscious, I was controlling my body. ”

He answered so clearly that Mark was stunned, he looked at himself, then at Jack, and then said, "So I really have multiple personality disorder?" ”

"But where is this? How did we get here? What happened before? ”

"Come with me." Jack walked to the other side of the hallway without looking back, explaining as he went, "Just now, I died. ”

His first words shocked Mark, who caught up with him and asked, "Dead?" as he walked. You mean it's hell?? ”

"Almost, they call this the underworld."

"How is this possible, what are you kidding?!"

But just then, they came to the end of the corridor, and Jack pushed the door open, and a huge monster with the head of a hippopotamus appeared outside the door.

As soon as the hippo was about to speak, Jack rushed ahead of her and said, "I know, I'm dead now, this is Duarte of the underworld, you are the patron saint of women and children, Tavorit, please let me go." ”

The hippopotamus's hand froze in mid-air, but at this moment, she suddenly exclaimed, and in an instant, the scene shattered, and Mark found that they were in the same boat, and there was another person on the boat, that is, Schiller.

Schiller was lying on the side of the boat, trying to get something from under the boat, and the hippopotamus hurriedly ran over and pulled him up by the collar, and the hippopotamus was a little angry and said, "What are you doing!" I've said it, don't stretch out your hand! ”

Mark, who was standing behind Jack, asked suspiciously, "Schiller?" …… Wait, are you Schiller? Why are you so young? ”

Schiller, who appeared in front of Mark, was still too young, and he probably looked less than 20 years old, which was very different from the Schiller he had seen in reality, and his temperament was also very different.

At least for now, this Schiller, who was grabbed by the collar by the big hippopotamus, looks like a bear child who does not follow the safety regulations of boating.

It soon became clear to Mark that he was right, for he heard the big hippopotamus say in a sharp tone:

"For thousands of years, I have hosted countless souls who want to go to the other side, and I have never seen anyone like you!"

"You refused to stay in the spirit world and have your last sweet dream, so you had to come to the ship early, and then you used your broken umbrella to knock down the lamppost here, causing it to almost catch fire!"

I'm busy picking up the other two, and you want to jump into the river to catch something! Are you crazy? How many times have I said it, this is the underworld! This ship is the one that will take you to the other side, you can't touch anything under the boat, put your umbrella away! ”

Schiller stared at the hippopotamus, the hippopotamus stared at Schiller, the two stared at each other for a long time, Schiller turned his head, "snorted", and then put the umbrella away.

The hippopotamus sighed heavily, turned to look at Jack and Mark again, and she walked over and said, "You two are twins, aren't you?" It's strange that so many believers are dying at the same time today......"

"Bang!"

The hippopotamus quickly turned her head and saw Schiller using the umbrella as if bowling and knocking the skull out from under the boat, and she blew through her nose and walked up to Schiller in a rage and carried him back.

She sighed deeply, crossed her hands on her hips, stared at Schiller, then stretched out a finger, pointed hard at her feet, and said, "Stand here and don't move!" I'm going to talk to the newcomers about the rules! ”

After speaking, she turned around slowly, turned her head back with a "whoosh", and saw that Schiller did not move, so she turned her body back again, then turned around, pointed two fingers at her eyes, and pointed at Schiller, meaning "I will stare at you".

Seeing Schiller honestly standing in place, the hippopotamus breathed a sigh of relief, and she walked up to Mark and Jack again and said, "It seems that the gods you worship have already explained to you what happened after your death......"

"As you know, this is the underworld, and all believers who believe in the Egyptian gods have the opportunity to be resurrected, and you can understand it as a welfare......"

"When our believers die, they don't die directly, their souls will board this ship and be judged here, and if you pass the judgment, you will be resurrected, but if you don't......"

The big hippopotamus shrugged his shoulders humanely and pouted at the sea of sand full of skeletons outside the boat, Mark widened his eyes and looked at the hippopotamus and asked, "Do you want to say that you will throw us down without passing the trial?" ”

Hippo nodded, and at this time, she noticed that Mark's expression became a little panicked, and she comforted: "Don't worry, the probability of passing is still very high, I believe you should not have done anything bad......"

But suddenly, the hippopotamus noticed that Mark's expression became more and more alarmed, and his eyes kept staring directly at her back, and the hippo suddenly had a bad premonition.

She turned her head slowly, and then saw that there were countless Schillers standing beside him.

The hippopotamus held her face in her hands and let out a scream, and she said, "No! No! Oh my God, what's going on? Where are you from? Get out of here......"

Marc watched as the Schillers who appeared on the ship walked in an orderly manner to the various parts of the ship, two rows of Schillers came to the side of the ship to manipulate the oars, one Schiller walked near the rudder, two Schillers were pulling the mast, and the other stood on the bow of the ship and began to look......

The god of the hippopotamus head scurried among the figures, trying to stop them, but she was really unskilled, and stopped Schiller on this side, and Schiller on the other side scurried by, and in a short time the ship was full of Schiller.

Mark was so shocked by the strange sight that he couldn't speak, and in the end, he could only look at Jack and ask, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"Earlier, this guy named Schiller knocked you unconscious, and then called me out, and in between we were fighting side by side, he told me a plan, which I thought was interesting, so I got involved."

"Plans? What is the plan? ”

"It's a bit complicated, so let him tell you." Jack stepped out of the way, and behind him was a Schiller in a white coat.

"Hello, Mark, long time no see, I know, you have a lot of questions right now, but we can talk slowly, because it may be a while before this ship gets to where I want to go."

As Schiller's words fell, Mark saw that the ship, under the control of many Schillers, began to deviate from its original course, and even turned 180 degrees in place and began to move back.

The hippopotamus sat down on the ground and cried, and a Schiller fed her with hay in his hand, and the hippopotamus ate while crying, his big mouth full of grass clippings and tears.

"As the Pope of His Excellency Khonsu, the Venerable Moon God, I have listened carefully to his teachings, and he once said that as a member of the Egyptian gods, you can have the opportunity to be resurrected."

"The believers of the Egyptian god system will take a boat after death, and on the boat, there will be a guide who will take out the heart of the believer and put it on a scale, which is the ......"

Schiller took a scale from the hand of another Schiller, and at one end of the scale lay a feather, and Schiller pointed to the feather and said: "If the heart of the believer is placed on the other side of the scale, and the heart is heavier than the feather, then it means that the believer is a sinner, and he will be thrown under the boat and drowned by an endless stream of skeletons." ”

"And if the heart is lighter than a feather, it's the other way around, and they can go to the reeds and get a chance to be reborn."

"Through some means, I know that death in this world is not as simple as it seems, there is a higher rule that shackles all living beings in the universe, so that they all go to a certain end after death, therefore, I am curious about this rule of the Egyptian god system, what is it that allows the Egyptian god system to break this rule and resurrect the dead?"

"I think you'll notice that there's a lot of fun going on in the process."

"I make a hypothesis, if the Egyptian god system can really break the rule of death and directly resurrect the dead, then why set up any process such as getting on the ship, sailing the ship, and judging? Wouldn't it be enough to resurrect people directly? ”

"So, I think this process of rowing and trial should be the key to it."

"So you captured the ship???" Mark asked out loud in disbelief, "Are you crazy?!" You...... How can you ......"

Marc could not comment on this behavior, but Schiller did not care about his attitude, but continued:

"And the other thing that interests me even more is that, as you just experienced, before you board the ship, you enter a spiritual world, that is, you have a dream."

"So......" Schiller said, looking around at the mysterious and ever-changing sky, "is this really the underworld that exists in reality?" Or ......"

Mark was horrified to see that all Schillers had turned their heads to look at him as he said this.

"It's still a dream, and this ship can carry our souls from the dream...... Driving into reality? ”
