βEpigraph
On a bed by the window in Ward 5, Ward 3, Ward 3, Taizihe City, Bohai Province, a 17-year-old boy named Heita Le is like a statue, motionless, with his back against the head of the bed, his eyes looking directly at the clouds and slightly yellowed poplar leaves outside the window.
Hettal has a thin body and a beautiful eyebrow, with a small coffee-colored mole hidden on the tip of his left eyebrow. At this moment, he seemed to be out of his body, and he seemed to be immersed in some kind of meditative state.
"25 beds, take medicine!" Hattar's thoughts were interrupted by the nurse's call. He didn't resist at all, and as soon as he tilted his head, he swallowed a white pill and a pink pill from the cap of the medicine bottle.
"Drink water!" At the nurse's command, Hattale mechanically took a sip of water. Then continue to look out the window.
It's early autumn outside the window. Just 5 months ago. He is also a high school student who suffers from classes, make-up classes, and endless test papers every day.
It is rare to have a May Day holiday, and he and a few good partners went to the ancient city ruins of the Liao Dynasty in Black Eagle Terrace for a spring outing. At the moment of posing for a photo, Hetale accidentally fell from the ancient city wall more than two feet high and fell unconscious.
Seeing this, the partners quickly dialed the 120 emergency number. Everyone sweated for him. Luckily, 24 hours later, he woke up. After a doctor's examination, his bones were not broken, except for a minor concussion, some abrasions on his back and arms, and several soft tissue injuries.
It's just that since he woke up, Hetale has had headaches and hysteria from time to time. Whenever I have hysteria, it's like forgetting all the people I know around me, including my parents. Speaking is also very strange, always saying that he is a Daliao person. In the blink of an eye, it was back to normal.
At first, Hetale's parents thought that the child must have read too many online novels and was stunned. Or the pressure of studying is too much, I don't want to go to school, and I am pretending to be sick.
After that, the hysteria flared up frequently, sometimes several times a day. The parents began to think that it was possible that the black tower music really broke his brain.
After that, his parents took him to seek medical advice and medicine, but to no avail. All diagnoses indicate that there are no organic lesions. And the psychological CT test showed that Hetale did not have any mental and psychological illness except for mild anxiety. Faced with this situation, doctors are also helpless.
Regular hospitals can't solve the problem, so they can only worship gods and use various home remedies. Wang Shenpo's incense ash, Li Daxian's talisman water, the scriptures of a certain monk, and all kinds of strange home remedies have been tried, but none of them worked. This toss, a lot of money was spent, but the hysteria did not get better at all, but became worse day by day, lasted longer, and behaved more and more strangely.
In desperation, in order to ensure the personal safety of Hetale, after discussing with his parents, they asked someone to send him to a mental illness treatment center near his home for recuperation and convenient care.
It's not hysteria. Instead, the moment he fell off the city wall and landed on the ground, a wisp of remnant soul of the Liao Dynasty under the ancient city wall entered his body by chance.
The moment Hetale woke up, this wisp of remnant soul was also instantly opened. Whenever the severe headache passed, Hattale's body was no longer under his control, as if he had become a different person. And this state of affairs only lasts for a limited period of time, after which it is as if nothing has happened. During this time, it was as if he had lost his memory. After that, he felt like his body was his own again. This repetition made him miserable and confused.
After some time, Hetale, who is keen on fantasy travel novels, seems to be aware of the existence of the remnant soul in his body, and tries to talk to the remnant soul.
In his heart, he asked repeatedly, "Who are you?" Why is it in my body? β
Hettal got a response. "Without me, you'd fall to your death. It was I who saved you, and through your body I was able to see the light of day again. The remnant soul in the body said.
"So you're a ghost without a superlife! No, it's a heroic soul! You are a great hero of goodness. Thank you for saving my life. But you've been in my body and I can't live a normal life anymore. You see, my parents have sent me to a psychiatric hospital. Raise your hand. If you have any wishes, I will make them happen for you. Hetalano said.
The remnant soul laughed, "Why are you so timid and scared here. I didn't want to do anything to you. β
"It can get into you. There must be some kind of inexplicable chance on our part. I've been wandering under the walls for a long time, and I don't know what age I've been. The remnant continued.
The slight sadness of the remnant soul made a tear involuntarily flow from the corner of Haital's eyes.
Hattale wiped away tears and said, "So you don't know how you got into my body?!" What can I do? β
The remnant said, "Why do you look like a girl here, can you have a bit of manly masculinity?" Since we don't know, it must be God's arrangement. β
"What should I do then?" I can't spend the rest of my life in this mental hospital, can I? I'm still young. I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet. I haven't seen many beautiful things in this world yet. β
The remnant thought for a moment and said, "I'm really uncomfortable here. If you want to get out, I'm willing to help you. But we've been talking for a long time, and we haven't known each other yet, right? β
The remnant soul introduced himself, "In the Black Eagle Tai of the Great Liao Kingdom, Xiao Yanzhen (official name). β
Surprised, he asked, "Wow, you are an ancient man. Oh my god! What is Mooke? β
The remnant soul was stunned, "It's an official position." It is the magistrate who manages the Black Eagle Terrace, from the five-rank military attachΓ©, to manage more than 100 people. β
Hettal asked again, "I'm sorry." I wonder how you died? β
The remnant soul sighed, "I died in the tenth year of the Liao Taizong Society. I can't remember what day it was. One night, I came out of the liquor store, and I was so drunk that I came to the edge of the wall of Black Eagle Terrace. Looking at the moon in the sky, like a scimitar, always gives me a bad premonition. I watched the moon ponder as I peed on the stone bars under the walls. Suddenly, a dark arrow flew out of nowhere and hit me in the head. Then, there is no then. β
"What a tragedy!" Hettal said.
"When I died, it was the year of the weak crown, and my family had just told me about a family business. I heard that the girl is not bad-looking. But I don't have that life! I don't know whose mother-in-law she has become. The remnant said sadly.
"Tell me about you, little boy." The remnant soul changed his words.
"My name is Hetale and I'm 17 years old. I'm still studying. In the future, I will continue to study and go to university. My mother also asked me to take a master's degree and a doctorate. I don't know if I can pass the test. I don't have any faith at all. However, it should not be a problem to get into an average university. β
"University, Master's, PhD. I haven't heard anything about you. Can you put it in layman's terms? The remnant was confused.
"Oh. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. A bit informative. All of this is a title that proves how highly educated you are. It's like an official position, from the bottom up. Hetale quickly explained.
"You must have met my parents. My mother's name is He Limei, and she is a university teacher who teaches ideology and politics. Equivalent to your teacher at that time. My dad's name is Havemin, and he's an engineer. Equivalent to the craftsmen of your time. Do you understand what I say? β
The remnant said, "Probably yes." β
"Okay, then I'll go ahead and introduce them. My dad is a strict wife. We have to listen to my mother for all the big and small things in our family. My dad would just say, yes, yes, yes, okay. My dad was cured by my mom and he didn't have a temper at all. So, I'm also afraid of my mother. Do you understand? Hetale said helplessly.
The remnant soul said with a little disdain, "Two big men, being treated like this by a woman, I really don't know what to say." β
"To get out of here." The key is still up to my mother. I have to reassure her and make her feel that I'm back to normal. You'll have to talk to her like I do. Otherwise, you'll be exposed. That's it. Let's live here together. β
The remnant replied in agreement, "I would like to be sent." β
"Then we're done." From now on, you'll have to learn how I speak. β
"I'll tell you about the important things I grew up with. Once my mom asks, you'll be able to handle it. β
The remnant replied, "Good. Be all ears. β
"I was weak when I was a child, and I often caught colds. You call it typhoid fever. It can be said that when I was young, I was a medicine jar. As I get older, my body is a little better than before, and I don't like colds so much. But compared to its peers, it is still weaker. Sometimes, you have to catch your breath when you run. So, I don't like sports very much, and I prefer to find a place to play quietly on my phone and read online novels. Now, being trapped in this ghost place, I can't touch my mobile phone, how can people live? I feel like I'm losing momentum in my life. Hatale said gloomily.
The remnant asked, "What is a cell phone?" Sounds amazing. β
"Alas! How can I explain this to you? Mobile phones. It's amazing. You can use it to talk to people thousands of miles away. You can also see people thousands of miles away. In conclusion, it has a lot of features. It's addictive. I'll tell you about it when we get out. β
"Good! Deal. The remnant said.
Heithara made an agreement with the remnant soul in his body and waited for the arrival of his mother, He Limei.
