Chapter 126: Heartless Fruit (Finale)

Qin Ding was a little helpless.

"Who am I? I'm Qin Ding, and I don't know why it appeared. You don't believe me either, and I don't know why it's in his body."

"Did you see the three of them before you showed up? What happened to all three of them?"

"I repeat, they are not three people, they can't appear at the same time, they are the same person, and their obsession is to break the seal of the Great Seal of the Soul and save the people inside.

I was already burned to death by Ma Zhengming, I don't know why it appeared in his body."

Doctor Hei looked at Qin Ding, who was a little emotional, and was silent.

"Then the three of them, did they rescue the people in the Great Seal later?"

Qin Ding was also silent, and he suddenly remembered that Hei Wu had said in the Qiankun library before that Uncle Ma was not caught, but died, which meant that the seal had not been broken.

If they didn't break the seal, it means that they didn't save the people sealed in the seal, what does it mean? It means that they have failed, what else does it mean, it seems to be about to come out, as if he mentioned it before, but at this time, Qin Ding couldn't think of anything.

"They should have failed."

Doctor Hei looked at Qin Ding.

"If you fail, will your appearance have something to do with their failure?"

Qin Ding stretched out his hand and rubbed his face.

"I don't know, I think I'm going crazy. What can I do when I show up? If they fail, what can I do?"

"If they fail, is it possible that they will continue to find a way to make a comeback? Because that's what they've always wanted to do?"

Qin Ding was stunned for a moment and put his hand down.

"You're saying that my presence wasn't accidental, so I'm here to stop them?"

"If you say that the three of them are the same person, and you are different from them, then your appearance may carry some kind of expectation of Ma Zhengming? Can you save the catastrophe, or maybe you have a mission to end it all?"

Qin Ding's brain buzzed, how could this be so familiar.

Expectation? Mission? Unscathed? Come to an end?

Qin Ding's eyebrows were twisted together, and he was very messy.

"Is it possible for me to take the place of the main personality?"

"Try not to think about replacing anyone. Although you think you are independent, you live in the same body.

What you need is mutual understanding, tolerance and reconciliation."

Hei Wu pressed the tape recorder.

"Alright, that's all for today, I think you need to rest.

You'll have to go back to the room you had before, and we'll have to watch for a while."

"Oh!"

Soon Qin Ding was sent back.

There were no windows in this room, only a bed, and no furniture.

When he got back, he lay down in bed, wondering if it was actually a dream.

However, if this is a dream, where will he be when he wakes up, and who will he be?

For some reason, a wave of sleepiness hit him, and he fell asleep.

Qin Ding didn't dream, as if he was sleeping in nothingness.

"It's been two days, and he hasn't woken up yet."

"The breathing and heart rate are normal, but ......"

Before Qin Ding opened his eyes, he had already heard the voices of Hei Wu and Feng Yuan.

His eyelids moved, and he opened them. The fluorescent lamp still made his eyes a little uncomfortable, and he reached out to block it.

This time he was not bound and his hand managed to block his forehead.

"He's awake."

Qin Ding gathered his consciousness, and he clearly felt that he was still himself.

He wanted to sit up, feeling a little nauseous in his stomach, but it was due to hunger. He felt heavy on his body, and at this time, there were hands supporting his back and slowly pushing him up.

"Brother Hei, is there anything to eat, I'm hungry."

"Are you Qin Ding?"

"Hmm."

"Xiao Feng, go to the cafeteria to get a bowl of porridge."

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Two days."

"Huh? Why did I sleep for so long?"

Hei Wu looked worried.

"This is not a good condition. Have you ever dreamed, or seen them?"

Qin Ding shook his head.

"I didn't dream, I didn't see anyone, maybe I don't remember.

Didn't they show up for two days?"

"Nope."

"Does that mean all three of them are gone, and I take their place?"

"I don't know. But I don't think you can sleep like this all the time. I'll take you out into the yard to bask in the sun."

"Okay."

After eating the porridge sent by Dr. Feng, Qin Ding was taken by Dr. Hei to the compound where the patient was active.

At this time, it was close to noon, and the sun was shining outside, which made Qin Ding feel a hint of truth.

Whether it was in the Suppression Pavilion before or inexplicably here, it really seems like a big dream.

This yard is not big, about the same as two basketball courts.

There were a few trees planted here and there in the yard, and there were a dozen or so people scattered around, some were moving, some were sitting and watching the sky, some were boxing, and some were talking to the air.

"Let's go sit there for a while and soak up the sun, which will help improve our mood."

Doctor Hei led him to a row of chairs in front of a tree, Qin Ding didn't want to speak, he always felt that all this was faintly weird.

Doctor Black was silent when he saw him.

"You see there are a lot of people in the courtyard today, and when the weather is good, they are willing to come out."

The sun shone on his body, but Qin Ding didn't feel the sun.

He squinted slightly, this big sky, sitting in the sun, how could he not even feel the heat?

Dr. Black continued beside him.

"This place is full of the most wonderful people, and these people are all kinds of strange people.

Look at the girl over there talking to the air, her name is Liu Li."

Liu Li? Qin Ding sounded familiar.

"Three years ago, she and her friend had to go to the basement of an abandoned factory in the middle of the night, and it didn't matter, she was so frightened that she had a mental problem."

Qin Ding's godless gaze suddenly lit up, and he looked at Doctor Hei, who was looking at the others in the courtyard as he spoke.

"According to her, during that basement expedition, they were haunted by a ghost named Liu Haiping, and all her friends were killed by Liu Haiping."

Qin Ding couldn't help but twitch when he heard this.

Isn't this an event on tape? He suddenly had a bad premonition, could it be that he was really just a split personality of Ma Zhengming, and the stories in those tapes were actually only heard from this hospital, and then mapped to a certain hallucination?

He didn't speak, but his throat was dry.

Dr. Black continued, pointing with his hand.

"Look at that, the guy who practiced Tai Chi, he didn't know this at all before he got sick, but after he got sick, he was comparing all the time, and you see he was in his 50s, but he behaved and behaved like an old man in his eighties.

He was quite scary when he was sent, wearing a shroud, and whoever took it off for him would have to play with whomever he wanted.

In fact, he is a typical schizophrenia due to guilt.

Part of it was caused by his father, but also because of the business hit."

Qin Ding couldn't help it.

"His father can't be an 81-year-old man, he's dead."

Doctor Hei turned his head and didn't have a trace of surprise, which made Qin Ding feel strange.

"Yes, what else do you know?"

"I also know that he held a funeral for his father, thinking that his father's death at the age of 81 was unlucky and did not bring good luck to his children and grandchildren, so he did not wear a birthday coat for the elderly."

Doctor Hei was still not surprised, as if Qin Ding knew that this was normal.

"What else?"

"And? Don't you think it's strange that I can know that?"

Dr. Black wasn't looking at him.

"What's strange about this, this should be Ma Zhengming's contact with these patients, or have heard of it, so it's not surprising that you can know as a sub-personality."

Qin Ding looked at the others in the courtyard.

"Among these patients, there must be some who have gone crazy because of a wardrobe after going to the ancient town; There are also those who went crazy because of their participation in the construction of an ancient pagoda; There are little nurses who go crazy, there are people who go crazy because of a stone statue or cleaning people, yes, yes, there is another one, because someone knocks on his door every night, he goes crazy, and there is another one who committed a crime like me, his name is Li Youtian, and he killed the whole family."

Qin Ding said that these are like a kind of venting, he feels that he is not crazy, but everything looks like he is crazy.

He rubbed his face with his hands again, and the touch on his face from his dry hands was very terrifying.

"Everything will be fine."

"Get alright? Is it for me to merge with the main personality? Let me become Ma Zhengming? Can I remember who I am?"

Dr. Black stood up, put his hand on his shoulder and patted him, but did not speak.

Qin Ding raised his head to look at Doctor Hei, the sunlight was dazzling, and he couldn't see clearly.

There was a shout in the distance, it was Dr. Feng calling for Dr. Black.

"You'll be able to bask in the sun yourself, maybe you'll have enough of it, and you'll figure it out."

Qin Ding couldn't understand these words, what was he saying.

The sun seemed to have no temperature except for dazzling in mid-air, and Qin Ding couldn't feel the warmth.

It suddenly reminded him of the kind of candle that also lit the temperature that it shouldn't have.

Don't...... Is it just an illusion here? But what evidence is there now that this is not a hallucination?

"Whoa...... Crash... Whew-la-hoo...... Plop."

Qin Ding heard the sound of leaves and branches being pulled behind him.

He quickly turned his head to see that a middle-aged uncle with long hair had just jumped off a tree, carrying something into his pocket, and the hospital gown was dazzlingly white.

"Hey, are you new here?"

Qin Ding was a little strange.

"Haven't you seen me?"

The middle-aged uncle shook his head, it didn't look like he was lying, he walked around from under the tree and sat next to Qin Ding.

Qin Ding couldn't help but say again, "You're the new here, aren't you? I...... I've been here for 10 years, and I haven't seen me?"

Qin Ding regretted a little after speaking, this person was obviously also a patient, how could he be logical with a mentally ill person.

"I haven't seen you before. You must be in the intensive care area, or...... You've done something out there.

Patients in these two places are not allowed to wander around the compound.

No, if you come out of these two places, you should have special guardianship, which district are you? I haven't seen you before."

From the uncle's words, Qin Ding didn't feel that this was a mental patient at all.

"You're saying that people in the intensive care area and those who have done things outside are not allowed to come here?"

"That's right."

Qin Ding suddenly thought of something from this sentence, if this uncle hadn't seen him, and Ma Zhengming had committed a crime, then why was Doctor Hei so sure just now, Ma Zhengming had been in contact with these patients in the past and learned about their past?

There is a problem with this place, and there is also a problem with the black doctor, so can it be said that he is not crazy, but has just fallen into such a strange world.

Qin Ding glanced at the middle-aged uncle.

"What did you get in for?" It's normal to see how you speak."

The middle-aged uncle smiled, looked around, and then lowered his voice.

"Hey, I'll tell you, don't tell anyone.

I'm not sick."

Qin

Ding collapsed, if it looks like this, the uncle should be sick.

"What? You don't believe it? Oh, if you don't believe it, don't believe it. But it's a hundred times stronger here than it is outside.

There is no need for intrigue among the people here, you don't see that they are all patients, they are very simple. How comfortable it is to live here, carefree.

And even if I do something weird, no one cares about treating me as an outlier."

Qin Ding believed what the uncle said at this time.

"Huh? You say you're not new, so where did you come from? I think you're quite normal, are you well?"

Qin Ding smiled bitterly.

"I can't tell if I'm sick or not, but maybe I'm new to this skin."

"Oh, I can see what you're saying."

"You understand?"

"I see, I've seen this kind of patient before, sometimes one person, and then another, like several people living in one body, isn't it?"

Qin Ding was amused by this uncle.

"Yes, you're right."

"Actually, these people who live in the body may actually be the same person."

Qin Ding's expression was a little gloomy.

"What? You don't agree with what I'm saying?"

"I don't know. There are four people in this body, plus me. But I'm not the real master of this body.

I'm the one who has been split, the other two, one perverted and brutal, the other obsessed with saving people, but the two of them are the same personality, I'm not, at least I don't think so."

Uncle thought about it.

"If the three of them are the same person, they represent three different faces.

One is good, one is evil, and one is obsessed."

When Qin Ding heard this, he suddenly thought of the mythical story that Hei Wu had told before, and he started to match it in his heart.

Ma Zhengming is a good thought, Ma Yuan is an evil thought, and Ji Zhenyuan is an obsession.

Good thoughts built a murderous soul suppression hall, evil thoughts are harming people, obsessed with breaking the seal and saving people.

But Hei Wu once said that Uncle Ma's evil thoughts and good thoughts have all achieved positive results, only obsession has not.

Uncle continued.

"Do you know what the root cause of psychosis is?"

Qin Ding looked at this uncle and didn't speak, he felt that this uncle seemed to know a lot.

"The root is obsession. In fact, in this world, don't say that there is a sick person or not, even if the gods and demons are immortals, the most difficult thing to let go of is obsession.

So, if all four of you let go of your obsessions, then you should be fine."

Let go of obsessions? Ma Zhengming's obsession is to break the seal, but what is his obsession? Is it Mom and Dad?

Ma Zhengming didn't let go until he died, and if he let go of his parents, it would be impossible for him to go to this world where he couldn't distinguish between truth and falsehood.

"How do I put it down?"

The uncle looked at Qin Ding with a smile, then looked left and right, shrunk his neck and whispered, "It's hard to let go of obsession, but...... You can't tell anyone what I'm telling you."

Qin Ding wondered if he had believed the wrong person, this uncle actually had a faint mental abnormality.

"Well, I'm not going to tell anyone."

The uncle pulled out of his pocket, then reached out and unfolded it.

Qin Ding saw that there was a ...... lying in the palm of his uncle's palm Hairy peach.

Qin Ding's head buzzed, isn't this Yu Lu, named Wuxinguo.

The uncle just showed it, and quickly withdrew his hand.

"I just picked it, and I gave it a name, the Freedom Fruit. As long as you eat it, you can forget your troubles, let go of your obsessions, and be at ease."

Let go of obsessions and be at ease?

There are so many things that are shuttled and entangled like silk threads, and Qin Ding seems to see the way to guide him out in this silk thread.

"One thought is persistent, and all kinds of helplessness. When you let go of your thoughts, you can feel at ease."

Uncle does have

A little nervous, he didn't say hello after finishing speaking, he got up by himself while Qin Ding was stunned, and walked into the distance while chattering.

"Who are you?"

The uncle didn't answer, and continued to walk happily, looking like a master who was not very serious.

Qin Ding hurriedly touched his pocket, his body froze, and then he took out two hairy peaches from it.

There was a sudden commotion in the courtyard, and two doctors ran out of the building, shouting and pointing at the uncle.

"Lei Peiyan, why did you get here, you stop me, it's time to take medicine."

Qin Ding looked at the courtyard in astonishment, the uncle ran faster than a rabbit, and ran into another building with a smoke.

Lei Pei Rock? Pei Yan, the former palm?

Qin Ding's heart fluctuated, was Pei Yan guiding him and rescuing him?

His eyes couldn't help but moisten a little, and at the same time he understood that if he saw Uncle Lei here, then it proved that this place should be in that painting.

No wonder everything was so weird, Hei Wu would unfold the painting in his hand at the last moment.

He suddenly understood why he was here and why he was in Uncle Ma's body.

Because he died, Uncle Ma also died, and they all became deaf and came here.

And neither he nor Uncle Ma ate Yulu, so Uncle Ma still has obsessions, and his mission is to kill Uncle Ma's obsession.

Thinking of this, Qin Ding didn't hesitate any longer, without further ado, he put a hairy peach in his hand into his mouth.

In an instant, the light flipped, the scene disappeared, and countless images came one after another and quickly left.

In a chaotic scene, Qin Ding seemed to see Uncle Ma smiling and looking at a woman.

Then there was silence all around, and the surroundings became chaotic, and Qin Ding seemed to have fallen into some unknown darkness again.

"Son, don't write, come over to dinner, and write after eating."

This familiar voice made the consciousness in the darkness quickly gather, the pupils of his eyes focused, Qin Ding moved, and found himself sitting in front of a writing desk.

The environment in front of him was so familiar, he couldn't believe that he was in his own home.

"Why? Lao Qin, call your son, come over for dinner, how many times have you called, let me feed you with your mouth?"

Qin Ding looked to the left incredulously, a dining table was full of food, and a man's face poked out of the door.

"Hurry up, your mother will be angry again in a while."

Qin Ding couldn't hold back any longer, he stood up and rushed to the man, hugging his father fiercely.

His father was visibly surprised.

"What are you doing, kid? What's wrong?"

Qin Ding didn't speak, slowly let go of his father, he walked to the kitchen in two steps, and hugged his mother who was about to wash the rags.

"Oh, what are you doing?"

At this time, his father also walked to the kitchen, and Qin Ding stretched out his arms again, and the three of them hugged each other tightly.

The tears were really uncontrollable, and the thoughts broke at this moment, and the voice was choked.

"Dad, Mom, you're all here, you're all here, I thought I'd never see you again."

Qin Ding wished that all this was really how good it should be, but he clearly remembered everything, so it was just an illusion.

"Silly boy, we've always been there."

Qin Ding's heart couldn't help but sour again, he didn't want to lose it again, even if all this was illusory.

Did the one he ate make Uncle Ma forget his obsession? And what about yourself?

Qin Ding slowly let go of his parents, and he felt for his coat pocket, and there was a small thing there.

Qin Ding still didn't hesitate and put the Heartless Fruit in his mouth.

Heaven and earth reversed again, I don't know how long it took, his consciousness gathered again, and before he could open his eyes, Qin Ding had already seen a glimmer of light from his eyelids.

There was a voice next to him, with a hint of suppressed excitement and incredulity in his emotions.

"Old Qin, Old Qin. Come and see, my son's eyelids seem to move

now."

Qin Ding felt that this voice was extremely familiar, it seemed to be his mother's voice.

"Son, son? Can you hear me?"

Qin Ding slowly opened his eyes, and what greeted them was a familiar face, they looked anxious for some reason, and their eyes were red.

"Mom, Dad, I, what's wrong with me?"

A tall doctor next to him said, "Mr. Qin, Ms. Zhang, don't get too excited, we have to examine him now.

Qin Ding suddenly felt that this voice was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was, he turned his head slightly to look at the doctor with some confusion, but he didn't know that face at all.

"Son, how are you feeling? Are you uncomfortable?"

"Let's not ask, let Dr. Black take a look."

"I, what's wrong with me? Why can't I remember anything?"

"Can't remember anything about it?"

Qin Ding nodded a little dazedly.

"Three years ago, you went on an expedition with your classmates to the old house on the other side of Bluestone Lane, and spent the night there, and the candles lit the linoleum cloth, causing a fire.

You and your classmates inhaled poisonous smoke and fell unconscious, the fire set the house on fire, you approached the door, only to be hit on the head, not burned, and your classmates were all killed.

And then when you send it, the head injury is more severe, and you've been in a coma, and it's about the same as a vegetative state.

It's been three years, and your parents haven't given up on you at all, and they say you'll wake up."

Qin Ding turned his head and looked at his parents, and they showed a smile that they hadn't seen for a long time.

Someone's humming came downstairs, it was a Peking Opera tone.

"One attachment, one thought, one vain, one sorrow, one joy, one floating life."
