Chapter 4: demon

Views:

White sky, white earth.

In addition to white, or white.

Li Anping walked alone on the white ground.

In the endless white, there is nothing but Li Anping.

His eyes were empty and his face was full of confusion...

Just such a person walking alone on this land.

go straight…

go straight…

Suddenly, a black crow flew over his head.

croak! croak!

The crow stopped beside him, tilted his head, and looked at Li Anping who kept moving forward, as if wondering why the other party kept walking

croak! croak!

The crow flew to Li Anping's shoulder and looked at him quietly.

Li Anping didn't seem to notice anything, his face was numb, he was still walking forward and kept walking.

The crow suddenly opened its mouth wide. Its upper and lower jaws opened 180 degrees unbelievably. The corners of the mouth were bleeding continuously, as if the whole mouth was about to be torn apart.

The big mouth bit Li Anping's head, Li Anping didn't resist, his neck was broken, the whole head was swallowed, and the blood in the chest sprayed out from the wound like a fountain...

"ah!!"

Li Anping on the hospital bed woke up.

how many times.

Since losing the lawsuit, he has had this same nightmare countless times. Each time it was eaten by a crow.

But after waking up from the nightmare again today, Li Anping didn't worry or think anymore.

because…

Compared with the world in nightmares, reality is the real hell.

"Grandma... is really dead." He screamed in pain, his limbs curled up, like a poor bug lying on the bed.

"My only relative died too."

"Am I really wrong?"

"Why is it wrong to insist on justice? Why is the pursuit of justice such a result?"

"Why did God punish me like this?"

Li Anping wanted to cry, but the tears had already dried up.

He wanted to beat the bed with his hands, but he couldn't even raise his hands.

Now he even needs help from others to defecate.

He could only whimper in a low voice every midnight.

Punish yourself in a nightmare.

"Ah!!" Li Anping thumped his head hard on the bed, only physical pain could relieve his spiritual despair.

Outside the ward, the policeman sent by the court to guard him knocked hard on the door, and there was a bang. He cursed and said, "Don't yell, this is the ward, don't disturb other people's rest."

Li Anping didn't respond, but he was indeed not barking anymore.

When all methods are exhausted, when all hope disappears, and when the only family member also dies.

Li Anping lost all thoughts.

he thought of...

die.

"Don't you want revenge?"

At this moment, a voice passed through his mind.

Li Anping looked around suspiciously, but didn't see anyone.

"Don't look around, I'm in your heart, I'll ask you again, don't you want revenge?" The voice appeared again and said in a tone full of temptation.

This time Li Anping heard the other party's voice actually sounded in his mind, but maybe it was a big change, maybe he thought he was hallucinating, he was not surprised at all, and he didn't even answer the voice.

"You just want to be immersed in sadness all the time? To be so decadent?" Seeing that Li Anping didn't answer him, the voice had to ask again: "If you punish yourself like this, you will only let the real enemy go unpunished."

Li Anping said bitterly: "Revenge? Who am I going to seek revenge? I'm just a useless person who has to be supported by others even to eat and go to the bathroom. It's a problem for me to survive, so why talk about revenge?"

"Hey hey hey..." the voice sneered: "Your body is not a problem, as long as you want revenge, I can help you."

There was a flash of heat in Li Anping's heart, and his chest seemed to be hot as well.

"How can you help me?"

"Don't ask too much, let me ask you first, how much are you willing to pay to treat your body?"

Li Anping couldn't wait to say: "I have nothing, as long as you can heal my body, I'm willing to give anything." But he didn't notice that the topic of revenge at the beginning has turned into healing the body since I don't know when.

The voice did not respond immediately after hearing Li Anping's words.

A few minutes later, when Li Anping almost thought that everything just now was just his hallucination, the voice said meaningfully: "Things you think are precious may be useless to me, and some things are useless to you. Things that are worthless, but that matter to me."

Li Anping didn't understand the meaning of the other party for a while, and only listened to the other party's words.

"The policeman outside, his name is Long Tao, he is poor and destitute, he eats and waits to die, these words are the best portrayal of him, the students in the same period get promoted, get rich, and he is the only one who still fights In the front line, living on a meager salary, he is over 30 years old, he doesn't even have a wife, and the only thing he can do is complain about the injustice of society and the incompetence of his boss."

"What does he have to do with me?" Li Anping asked puzzledly, "Also, how do you know about his situation?"

"I will tell you the reason afterwards, but now, I just need you to touch his body with your right hand."

Li Anping's tone seemed a little hesitant: "Is it all right to do this?"

The voice laughed like a devil whispering: "How could it be so simple, I just want to use your hand to knock him out, and I don't want to be disturbed when I'm going to be treated..."

"... yes, I will do as you say."

After a while, neither of them was communicating, and the entire ward seemed silent. Li Anping turned his body sideways and rolled towards the inner side of the bed little by little.

Because his limbs were nearly paralyzed and he was wrapped in a quilt, he moved very slowly.

With a thud, Li Anping fell off the bed and hit the floor with a soft sound.

"What's going on?" Long Tao at the door heard the impact, and immediately opened the door and rushed in.

The hospital bed was parallel to the door, and the direction Li Anping was leaning towards was the inner side of the bed, and Long Tao who came in couldn't see him for a moment.

Worried about what might be wrong, he rushed to the other side of the hospital bed, but just as he saw Li Anping fell to the ground, he was grabbed by the other side's feet.

"What are you doing..."

※※※

Anna felt a little anxious in her heart.

After visiting Li Anping last time, she happened to be going abroad for a study tour. This is an act of sending students to foreign universities to take courses in other universities after the university collects money. Originally, she wanted to ask Li Anping to go to the aquarium together before the study tour. Unexpectedly, Li Anping was involved in a car accident.

Then, when Anna returned to Zhongdu after a month's study tour, Li Anping had already turned into a scumbag that everyone shouted for beatings. She hesitated for a long time, and finally ran over that night.

"At least listen to him tell what happened."

No matter what, Anna couldn't combine the bright, kind, and justice-seeking Li Anping with the criminal in the report.

Taking a deep breath, she walked towards the ward full of apprehension.

"What did you do?" Li Anping suppressed his anger and asked.

"Hehe, you don't need to shout so loudly, you can communicate with me directly with your spirit." The voice replied maliciously: "As for what I did? Hehehehe, from the beginning to the end, it was you who did it?"

Li Anping looked at the body lying on the ground, and said in disbelief: "You killed him! How could you kill him? You said you just knocked him out."

"Hmph, it's really disappointing. Have you experienced so many things, haven't you realized yet? The world is constantly changing, and the only thing that remains constant is the stupidity of human beings. Their filth and ugliness are simply worse than cesspit makes me sick.

Do you know how this policeman sees you? In his eyes, you are just a pile of rubbish. He has sold a lot of information about you to the media, and he has even thought of torturing you more than once.

Hey, after you experience more things, you will find that there are countless sins hidden behind everyone. Successful people are blamed, hostile and envied, and unsuccessful, are scorned, bullied and enslaved.

All human beings are consciously or unconsciously showing malice towards others.

In the end, no matter who it is, all he can get in the end is boredom and helplessness. "

Every word of the voice was like an evil croon, and Li Anping felt as if he was actually accepting the sermons of some kind of cult.

But he still couldn't let it go. Just now, a life was lost in his hands. Just after he touched Long Tao's leg with his hand, the other party fell down immediately.

Undetectable fluctuations flowed from Long Tao's body to the Buddhist beads in Li Anping's right hand, which should have been confiscated by the guarding police, but now suddenly appeared again.

Li Anping looked at the Buddhist beads that suddenly appeared on his right wrist, and seemed to have noticed something.

"You are inside this Buddhist bead? What kind of evil thing are you? I will destroy you, and I will not allow you to harm anyone!" Li Anping tore the Buddhist bead off.

"The Buddha beads are just a temporary shelter, but now, I found a better one." The voice smiled triumphantly: "Besides, are you sure you want to stop cooperating with me? Your body will be destroyed immediately." cured..."

Li Anping threw the beads out of the window: "No need, I won't listen to anything you say, you devil!!"

"As I said, I am no longer on the prayer beads." The voice still appeared in Li Anping's mind: "It was your ignorance, kindness and resentment that woke me up, and the policeman's death was also caused by you. You can no longer exit..."

"I can, as long as I don't promise you anything."

While the two were arguing endlessly, Anna walked into the ward. She looked at Li Anping and Long Tao who were lying on the ground with wide eyes, and said in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"

"Kill her, she has witnessed everything, you must kill her immediately to silence, put your hands on her body, I will eat her soul." That voice bewitched Li Anping.

"Don't think about it."

Li Anping yelled at Anna: "Anna, help him up quickly, he suddenly fell ill, please ask the doctor to see him." He is still worried that the other party is not dead.

"Oh... oh." Anna seemed to have reacted now, and ran over in a panic, trying to help Long Tao's body up.

"Don't worry about this for now." Li Anping quickly stopped her, fearing that she would also be attacked: "Hurry up and find a doctor, he is not breathing."

"Okay... okay." Anna was a little at a loss. After hearing Li Anping's order, she subconsciously followed and ran out the door, wanting to find a doctor.

But as soon as she went out, she felt as if she had hit a mountain and was pushed back by a huge force.

"Old Nuo, it seems that we came at the right time."
