Although he was talking about making Li Ye calm down, it was not easy to put on an indifferent attitude in front of Li Su's affairs. Li Ye forcefully closed his eyes, his hand hanging by his side clenched into a fist, tried his best to control his emotions, and said hello.
So Ji Leshui stammered and told Li Ye all the scenes he saw. While the two were talking, Lin Banxia walked to Li Su's side and called out his name softly, "Li Su?"
He originally thought that Li Su would not respond to his voice, but Li Su cast a glance at him, although his eyes were erratic and timid, he looked dazed and pitiful.
Lin Banxia carefully stretched out her hand and touched the green light spots lingering on Li Su's shoulders. Those light spots seemed to have life. After being touched by his fingertips, they quickly gathered in his hand and followed The fingertips rushed all the way to his palm, and before they reached his palm, they dissipated.
Countless light spots piled up on Li Su's head and shoulders, as if the snow would bury his entire being. Although he didn't know what these things were, they didn't think they were good things. Lin Banxia thought about it for a moment, and then lightly reached out and patted Li Su's shoulder on top of his head, and patted the light spots away...
Over there, Ji Leshui was still under Li Ye's fierce stare, tremblingly talking about what he had seen and heard, and talking about the place he was afraid of, he glanced at Lin Banxia's side. , when I saw it, my eyes were about to fall: "Fuck!!"
I saw that the thing that was still sticking to Li Su's body, was photographed by Lin Banxia a few times, and it actually changed. At first, the movement gradually became slower, then the body began to fade, and finally it disappeared completely. …
"No, no more!" Ji Leshui shouted.
Li Ye and Song Qingluo didn't understand and said, "What?"
"The thing on Li Su is gone!!" Ji Leshui pointed at Li Su and shouted, "It's gone!!"
Lin Banxia stood there and heard Ji Leshui's snoring. He raised his head: "What did you see disappeared?"
"Yes, it's gone." Ji Leshui said, "If you take a picture, it's gone."
Lin Banxia was a little surprised to hear this, and looked down at Li Su. Li Su's body really changed. His illusory eyes began to focus, and his consciousness returned to him. He looked around at a loss, as if he just noticed where he was at this moment, and murmured: " Ivan…”
Li Ye, who was standing at the door, turned around and returned to Li Su's side.
"Why are there so many people in the family." Li Su said, "I...what am I doing..."
Li Ye reached out and stroked his cheek. Li Su's skin was cold like ice without a trace of temperature. Li Ye said, "You are sick."
Li Su smiled and said, "Have I been sick all the time?" He originally wanted to make a joke, but found that several people standing beside him were staring at him with solemn eyes, so he had to hold back the joke, "In the end, What's wrong?"
"You are infected." Li Ye said, "Your mental state has dropped to the worst level."
Li Su: "...No, right? I didn't see anything strange." They are monitors. Usually, in such a situation, they see something they shouldn't see, but his last memory is to stay Last night, he found it was raining outside, went to the balcony and closed the window, then went back to bed. After that, the memory was a little blurry. He seemed to have had a long dream, but he didn't seem to have it. If we had to use a metaphor, it would be like the lack of consciousness in pieces, unable to think...
"Don't think about it." Li Ye said, "You rest first."
Li Su shook his head and rejected Li Ye's good intentions: "I'm not sleepy, Banxia and the others all came suddenly. There must be something wrong. Let's talk while I'm still awake."
Song Qingluo is not as sympathetic as Li Ye, and he said bluntly: "Things are out of control, many people are infected like you, and now we have not found the source of the infection, you should know what the final result of the infection is."
Li Su was silent, of course he knew that the end of the infection was madness. When the human spirit can no longer carry the influence of heresy, madness becomes the ultimate destination. He recalled his state just now, and actually felt that he was only a thin line away from that world...
Fortunately, before he fell into the abyss, he was pulled back.
Realizing this, Li Su immediately felt fortunate, but his current mental state was still very weak, his mind was also very dull, and he couldn't think carefully about difficult problems. He said, "What should I do?"
"Let the base search first." Song Qingluo said, "try to find the source."
In fact, they all understand that this is not an easy task.
That was the only way, Song Qingluo went directly to the balcony to contact the base.
Li Su said bitterly, "Watch TV." He didn't want the room to be too quiet.
Li Ye turned on the TV and switched to the news channel. At the moment, he was reporting social news, saying that a serious traffic accident suddenly occurred in the center of the city. A dozen vehicles collided in a series, and the reporter was reporting from the front.
If this kind of news were normal, Lin Banxia would probably just watch the fun, but the recent situation was sensitive, so he paid more attention.
Because of the seriousness of the accident, the reporter has already rushed to the scene. There are broken limbs, broken arms and crashed vehicles everywhere on the ground. Although the mosaics are played, it still makes people feel uncomfortable. The reporter was a young girl who was filming firefighters cutting a vehicle and pulling a victim out of it. Luckily for the victim, he was wearing a seatbelt in the back seat, but got stuck in it and suffered minor injuries.
His mental state didn't seem to be very good, and he kept muttering something in his mouth. Others didn't take it to heart. After all, it was normal to be stimulated by such a serious accident.
"It's raining." Li Su said suddenly.
It did rain, it was a light rain, and it fell on the heads and shoulders of everyone on the TV. Across the screen, the rain in Lin Banxia's eyes did not turn into a green spot of light, it was just an ordinary autumn rain.
With the efforts of the firefighters, the victim who was crushed in the car was finally rescued successfully, and the medical staff next to him quickly carried him onto a stretcher and planned to put him in the car. But this man seemed to be completely fine, struggling to sit up from the stretcher, screaming something.
When the reporter saw this scene, they thought that the injured person was going to say something, so they hurried forward to interview, but as soon as they walked to the person's side, someone grabbed their arm. The reporter was startled and said, "What do you want to say? What?" She leaned down and handed over the microphone in her hand. The man stared straight at the reporter, and the next moment, he actually bit the reporter's face.
"Ah!!!" The reporter screamed in pain and struggled in horror.
The injured man became even more frantic, hugged the reporter's head directly, and took another bite.
At this moment, the people around reacted and hurriedly pulled the man away, but it was too late. The reporter's face was bitten with blood and blood. The one who bit her was going to continue, but the police and firefighters around him responded. The team members held on tightly.
"Ah, my face, my face—" the reporter cried, and the live broadcast screen shook a bit, then cut to the advertisement screen.
This scene happened so suddenly that almost no one reacted.
"This..." Ji Leshui was stunned, "how could this happen, is that person crazy?"
A moment of silence.
"Haha." Li Su smiled dryly, "What did you just say Banxia? Is there all that stuff in the rain?" He glanced at the sky outside. At this time, the light rain was slowly falling, and it didn't mean to stop, but it was getting bigger and bigger. The dark clouds in the sky became a circling shadow, gradually covering the whole world.
At this time, they suddenly realized how horrible and bad it would be if the whole world went crazy.
Lin Banxia didn't speak, got up and went to the balcony, looking downstairs.
Many people walked in the rain with umbrellas in their hands, looking calm and peaceful, and there was nothing wrong with them—if it wasn't for the snow-like green spots on their umbrellas.
Others also came to the balcony one after another. Ji Leshui just glanced outside, then trembled violently, and said shiveringly: "All, they all have those things on them... What to do, what to do? ..." Almost all the people who entered his field of vision were attached to the kind of creature that he saw on Li Su's shoulder just now. No, it shouldn't be a creature.
They are like parasites, clinging to people's bodies, feasting on their faces with joy, and they have gnawed gaps in everyone's body. But what they eat is not the human body, but the spirit. Once they are eaten up, what greets human beings is endless madness.
"What should we do?" Ji Leshui was crying. He was the least timid of all. When he recalled the bloody scene just now, his whole body was shaking, and he didn't dare to imagine the whole world being occupied by lunatics. .
"There must be a way." Lin Banxia murmured, "There must be a way..." He cheered up, "Can't I dispel those light spots? As long as they are dispelled, those things will be gone, right?"
"So many people." Li Su smiled bitterly, "It's just a drop in the bucket."
There is only one Lin Banxia, but when it rains, how many people will get wet.
"I have to do it." Lin Banxia said, "I have to... give it a try."
Yes, I have to try it out. When Li Su heard Lin Banxia say this, he forced a smile: "We are in touch with there and see if we can come up with some other methods."
"Okay." Lin Banxia said, "I'll go out and try it out first." He was an activist, he did what he said, he turned around and took the umbrella and was about to go downstairs. Song Qingluo wanted to join him, but Lin Banxia refused.
"That thing is also estimated to fall on you." Lin Banxia said, "To be on the safe side, don't go."
Song Qingluo wanted to say something else, but Lin Banxia didn't give him a chance to speak, so she turned around and left.
Ji Leshui turned his head and looked out the window. He said, "When will the rain stop?"
Yes, when will the rain stop
Lin Banxia went downstairs with an umbrella. There were not too many people in this community, and there were still some residents coming and going. He stood in the rain and saw it more clearly. The rain was dripping with green light spots, falling from the dome and falling on the shoulders of the umbrella. The whole world was enveloped in green light. This kind of thing, only he can see, in the eyes of others, this is just a light rain that is not too heavy.
Lin Banxia collected her mind, turned and walked to the pedestrian next to her. Of course he couldn't directly say his purpose, otherwise he would be the one who was regarded as a lunatic. So he made a random excuse, saying that there were bugs or something on the man's shoulder, and reached out to pat the green spot off the pedestrian's shoulder. Fortunately, he was born with a good face, and no one doubted him, at most only a few scorns.
After filming the inside of the community, Lin Banxia went outside for a circle. When he saw the green halos on the shoulders of everyone around him, Lin Banxia felt like an island floating in the ocean, about to be engulfed by the vast ocean, but there was nothing he could do.
Lin Banxia stood there for a while, a little dazed on her face. Looking up at the sky, a drop of rain fell from the sky and just flowed into his eyes. He blinked, reached out and wiped it away, and saw the light spots dissipate on his fingertips.
The phone rang, and Lin Banxia took it out and saw that it was Song Qingluo's call.
"Hey, Banxia." After the call was connected, Lin Banxia heard Song Qingluo's voice. The voice was a little erratic, as if it came from a far away place. Song Qingluo said, "Banxia, come back."
Lin Banxia asked, "Is there a way?"
Song Qingluo said, "Not yet."
Lin Banxia was silent.
Song Qingluo said, "Come back."
Lin Banxia: "But..."
"Come back soon." Song Qingluo said, there was a rare tension in his voice, not the lightness of the past.
Lin Banxia couldn't say anything to refuse, so she could only say hello in a low voice.
Back in the house, the house was quiet, like a dead tomb. Li Su huddled on the sofa and fell asleep. Ji Leshui sat beside him blankly, looking down at his phone. When he saw Lin Banxia coming back, he whispered, "Banxia."
Lin Banxia didn't see Song Qingluo and Li Ye, and asked them where they were going.
"What are they going out to talk about." Ji Leshui said.
Lin Banxia cast an inquiring look at Li Su.
Li Su looked back, and there was some sadness in his eyes. He said, "Banxia, there are some things, but I never knew whether to tell you or not."
Lin Banxia said, "It's about time, just say it if you want."
Li Su said, "Do you know what those boxes containing heretical things are made of?"
Lin Banxia was stunned when she heard the words. Those boxes are big and small. The inside is made of wood, and the outside is covered with a kind of leather. It feels soft and delicate to the touch. He has also thought about how the box is so powerful that it can seal the heresy, but he just thinks about it. , was not studied in detail. Since Li Su asked this question with such an expression, a certain answer he couldn't believe came to mind in an instant, Lin Banxia twitched his lips with difficulty: "No way."
Li Su whispered, "I don't want that side to know about you."
Lin Banxia: "..."
Li Su said, "Maybe you can save the world, but you have to pay a price to be the God who saves the world." He looked sad and stared at Lin Banxia, "I hope you are just my friend."
Lin Banxia said, "Even if I become a god, it's not my turn."
Li Su smiled and said, "I hope so."
Lin Banxia whispered, "Those boxes... are they related to Song Qingluo?"
Li Su said: "After Song Qingluo entered the base, he disappeared for a while. At that time, he was still young, and no one noticed. It might be a year, it might be half a year, in short, he disappeared. When he reappeared, the base would disappear. There are those boxes in there." He licked his lips, "Not many people know about this... There are probably not many people who associate him with boxes, but there are no airtight walls in this world."
When Lin Banxia heard these words, she always felt that her heart was being pulled violently, and the pain was so severe that she was even a little breathless. "Thank you for telling me these things," he said.
"Song Qingluo didn't report your story." Li Su said, "After all, if you know that you really have this ability, something very bad may happen." He huddled on the sofa, talking, his body It seemed a little cold, shrinking tighter and tighter, like a frightened little hedgehog.
Lin Banxia's mouth was bitter, and she said, "I'll go to the balcony to smoke a cigarette."
Ji Leshui looked at Lin Banxia worriedly, but he was hesitant to say anything. He listened to the conversation between Lin Banxia and Li Su in a daze, and didn't know what to say to comfort his friend.
Lin Banxia went to the balcony, looked at the rain curtain outside the window, and lit a cigarette.
The lingering smoke clouded his eyes, and he squinted, realizing that night had fallen. The originally dark night turned into a colorful starry sky in his eyes. Countless stars did not fall one after another, but hovered above the sky, like a sharp sword of Damocles. The more dangerous things are, the more beautiful they are. Lin Banxia thought silently... Where is the heresy that created all this? Is it in the sky? Or in the clouds? What does it want to do
Before he knew it, Lin Banxia lost his senses, until the sparks on the smoke burned his fingers, causing sharp pain, and he suddenly regained his senses.
There were footsteps behind him, and Lin Banxia turned his head to see Song Qingluo and Li Ye coming back. Both of them were stained with some light spots, they should have gone out for a trip. Fortunately, these light spots didn't have much impact on them, at least Ji Leshui didn't shout about that kind of thing anymore.
"I'm back." Lin Banxia put out the cigarette and asked casually, "How is it?"
Song Qingluo said, "Of course it's not good. The base is in chaos. There are fifty or sixty people insane."
Lin Banxia: "All the companions?"
Song Qingluo nodded: "The rain has stopped."
Lin Banxia said, "It's stopped." When he spoke, he stretched out his hand to flick the light off Song Qingluo's body, and said casually, "Did you tell the base about me?"
Song Qingluo gave Lin Banxia a deep look: "No." He paused, "Do you want to persuade me?"
Lin Banxia: "No... At least, not now."
Song Qingluo stopped talking.
Li Ye said lightly: "It's not necessarily useful to say it. They have a lot of ideas. Maybe the solution is to chop you up and boil it into water, and everyone will have a cup."
Lin Banxia: "...It sounds painful."
Li Ye said: "You should ask Song Qingluo, he has more experience."
Lin Banxia: "..."
"Since the rain has stopped, let's wait and see." Li Su's voice came from a distance, "Maybe, things are not as bad as we thought."
Everyone didn't speak. In fact, they knew very well that as long as they didn't find the heresy that caused all this, things would not settle down for a day. But how to find it? Really clueless.
The rain stopped, and the green stars did not continue to fall, but hung in the distant sky, as long as Lin Banxia raised his eyes, he could see it.
There was the sound of a helicopter flying by outside the window. Song Qingluo said that this was the beginning of the investigation of the sky from the base. The progress is very slow at present, because it is impossible to judge the height of the heresy.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow." Li Su yawned and suggested, "It's so late, there's no point in tossing again."
The same is true.
Li Su and the others had a big house, with three or four guest rooms. After roughly dividing the rooms, the three of them went to rest separately. Lin Banxia was lying on the field, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, until her side sank and felt that Song Qingluo was also lying down.
"Can't sleep?" Song Qingluo asked him.
"A little." Lin Banxia turned her body sideways, looking at the still green sky outside, green light also reflected in his eyes.
Song Qingluo said, "Things will always be resolved."
Lin Banxia smiled and said, "Are you comforting me?"
Song Qingluo: "That's right."
"Actually, I'm not that scared." Lin Banxia said, "You know my reaction is a bit slow..."
Song Qingluo didn't say a word, she put her arms around Lin Banxia's waist and took him into her arms. Lin Banxia's back was holding Song Qingluo's chest, feeling the temperature of his body being continuously transmitted to her body through the thin clothes. The feeling of being unable to fall asleep dissipated at once, drowsiness quickly flooded into his heart, Lin Banxia closed his eyes, and his breathing became quiet and long.
Song Qingluo didn't fall asleep, he stared at Lin Banxia's messy hair and fair neck from behind, his hands tightened slightly, wishing to embed the person in front of him into his body.
The night without the rain was silent.
Lin Banxia, who slept very deeply, heard that strange and crisp sound again in the haze, as if someone was ringing a crisp copper bell and shaking it gently in his ear.
Lin Banxia opened her eyes and slowly sat up from the bed. But the moment he sat up, Lin Banxia realized that something was not right - he actually saw his body lying on the bed.
Before she could react, Lin Banxia felt her body float up, like a piece of soft silk, being swept up in the wind and heading towards the sky.
He seemed to be out of his body, seeing that he was getting farther and farther from the earth, those huge buildings gradually became the size of a matchbox, but the crisp ding sound in his ears became clearer.
Where is this going? Lin Banxia saw that his body passed through the clouds, and the green stars around him began to move closer to him—like a satellite attracted by the gravitational force of a planet, a green halo formed around him.
Lin Banxia's black eyes were reflected in a deep emerald green. He blinked, and all the stars fell into his eyes.
A strange sound of music sounded in his ears. It was not a human language, but Lin Banxia understood it strangely—that thing was calling his name "Lin Banxia".
The author has something to say:
Song Qingluo: Wake up Lin Banxia! !
Lin Banxia: Why are you so nervous! !
Song Qingluo: If you don't wake up, I'm going to be green, can I not be nervous
Lin Banxia: It's a dangerous... color
