Chapter 3: Knocking on the Door
Back in the room, Lin Qiye closed the door.
He didn't turn on the lights.
It was late at night, the starlight outside the window was sprinkled on the ground, and in the dark room, Lin Qiye sat at the desk and slowly took off the black satin on his eyes.
In the mirror on the desk, the face of a handsome young man is reflected.
Lin Qiye is very good-looking, if he takes off the black satin blindfolding, and then takes care of it a little, with that inexplicable cold and deep temperament, he is definitely a handsome guy at the school grass level.
It's a pity that he is haunted by black satin all the year round, and his status as a disabled person completely obscures his light.
In the mirror, Lin Qiye has his eyes closed.
His brow furrowed slightly, his eyelids twitching over his eyes, as if he was trying to open them, and even his hands were clenched into fists.
One second, two seconds, three seconds......
His body trembled for a long time, and finally he couldn't bear it anymore, and suddenly relaxed, gasping for air.
A few drops of sweat swept across Lin Qiye's cheeks, and a wave of anger appeared between his eyebrows.
Almost...... Just a little bit!
Why is it so little worse every time?
When will he be able to open his eyes again and see the world for himself?
He said he could see now, and he lied.
He couldn't open his eyes at all, not even a slit.
But he wasn't lying.
Because even with his eyes closed, he can clearly "see" everything around him.
This feeling is amazing, like I have eyes all over my body, I can perceive everything in all directions without dead ends, and I can see more clearly and farther than the original eyes.
At first, he couldn't do it, and in the first five years of his blindness, he was no different from the rest of the truly blind people, and could only perceive the world with his voice and the guide stick in his hand.
But for some reason, since five years ago, his eyes seem to have undergone some changes, and he can also begin to initially perceive his surroundings.
At first, it was only a few centimeters in front of him, but as time passed, he could "see" farther and farther, and it became clearer and clearer, and now, five years later, the range he can "see" has reached ten meters.
If a normal person can only see ten meters, then his eyes are basically useless, but for a teenager who has lost his light, these ten meters mean everything.
The most important thing is that the ten meters he "sees" are the ten meters that ignore obstacles.
In other words, within a radius of ten meters from Lin Qiye, he has an absolute field of vision, to put it mildly, he can see through, but on a higher level, he can see every particle of dust in the air, see every part inside the machine, and see every small movement of the magician under the table......
And the source of this ability seems to be the eyes that have been closed under the black satin for ten years.
Although he has this kind of almost super-powerful power, Lin Qiye is still not satisfied, it is good to have an absolute vision of ten meters, but he wants to use his own eyes to see the world in person.
This is the persistence of a teenager.
Although he failed to open his eyes today, he could clearly feel it......
It's not far from really opening your eyes.
After washing, Lin Qiye went to bed early and prepared for bed as usual, so many years of blind life are not all bad, at least he has developed a good habit of going to bed early.
But lying on the bed, subconsciously, that picture appeared in his mind again.
Under the dark cosmic dome, on the dead surface of the moon, the gray-white earth reflected the bleak starlight, and in the center of the highest and largest lunar crater, stood a figure like a sculpture.
The figure stood silently, as if it had existed since eternity, the divine golden light blooming, the divine power enough to make all living things prostrate on the ground.
Behind him, six wings of exaggerated size spread out, blocking out the sun's rays cast from behind, leaving huge shadows on the silver-gray earth.
And what really imprinted in Lin Qiye's mind, lingering was his eyes.
Those eyes full of divine power, burning like a furnace, were as dazzling as the sun at close range!
He saw those eyes, and for a moment, his world was left with only night.
Ten years ago, he told the truth, only to be diagnosed with mental illness.
But he knows best in his heart what is real and what is delusional.
Ever since he saw the Seraphs on the moon, he knew that the world was ...... It's not as simple as it seems.
Slowly, Lin Qiye fell asleep.
He didn't know that the moment he fell asleep, in the dark room, two bright golden rays shot out of his eyes and disappeared in a flash.
……
Da, da, da......
In the misty world, Lin Qiye walked alone.
The surrounding fog rolled, seemingly endless, obviously walking in the void, but every time Lin Qiye landed, there would be a crisp collision sound, as if there was an invisible ground under his feet.
Lin Qiye looked down at his body and sighed.
"It's this dream again...... Knocking on the door every night, it's tiring, right? Lin Qiye shook his head helplessly and took a step forward.
The next moment, the surrounding fog rolled upside down, and a modern building with a strange style appeared in front of Lin Qiye.
It is said to be weird because it is obviously a modern style building, but in some details, it is full of mystery.
For example, the large iron gate carved with gods in the sky, such as the electric lamp that looks like a fireball burning, such as the carved tiles floating under your feet......
It's like a mixture of modern architectural style and temple elements from ancient mythology, nondescript, but with an indescribable beauty.
This kind of building is known to Lin Qiye, and it looks very familiar.
This is extremely similar to the Sunshine Psychiatric Hospital where he used to live for a year, and the most powerful evidence is that the place where the words "Sunshine Psychiatric Hospital" were originally written at the door have become another line of words.
- Gulnard Asylum.
"Inexplicable place." Lin Qiye shook his head, stepped forward, and walked directly in front of the big iron gate.
Five years ago, it was not only his body that suddenly began to change, but also his dreams.
For five years, he would have the same dream every night, and the protagonist of these dreams was this mysterious asylum of gods.
It's just that the doors of this psychiatric hospital have been closed and cannot be opened no matter what.
Lin Qiye circled around the mental hospital countless times, there was only one entrance to the big iron gate in front, although the surrounding walls were not high, but the most outrageous thing was that every time Lin Qiye jumped up, the height of the wall would also increase.
As for brute force...... Even if Lin Qiye's whole person fell apart, the big iron gate wouldn't even move.
There seems to be only one way to enter.
Knock.
Lin Qiye grabbed the ring on the big iron door, took a deep breath, and slapped it heavily on the surface of the iron door.
Bell ——!
Like the sound of an ancient bell ringing echoed in the mental hospital, the big iron door itself shook, shook, and did not open.
Bell ——!
Again, the iron door still didn't open.
Lin Qiye didn't seem surprised or annoyed by this, and continued to knock very patiently.
In the past five years, he has been deeply aware of the rules of this dream, except for knocking on the door, he can't open the big iron door by any other means, and in this dream, he can only knock on the door...... It seems that nothing else can be done.
Fortunately, in the dream world, he would not get tired, otherwise his body would have been exhausted.
So, Lin Qiye was like a hard-working worker, and knocked on the door diligently for another night......
