Rebirth one way to the north

The situation behind the door was very harmonious. Zheng Dong was as obedient as a primary school student, sitting upright, with his hands flat on his lap, looking at Mo Bei with nostalgia and admiration in his eyes.Mo Bei walked out without waiting for Qin Dangmian's urging, while Zheng Dong followed Mo Bei's figure with that kind of nostalgic eyes, even at the moment the door was closed, Xia Duo clearly saw that he shed love. Tears of reluctance.

"..." Xia Duo shuddered, obviously feeling goosebumps on his arms.

Qin Dangmian thanked Mo Bei politely, and Mo Bei also politely said that this is what he should do—Xia Duo shuddered again.Qin Dangmian wanted to show Mo Bei a visit to the hospital, and Mo Bei agreed without hesitation——Xia Duo shivered again, thinking he might have caught a cold.

In fact, the hospitals are all similar, and what really interests Xia Duo are the patients, and Qin Dangmian obviously understands this, pointing out a certain patient to introduce to them from time to time: "We really can't say that that person is mentally abnormal. He is still a genius who is not recognized by this era. Do you know? He has his own worldview and methodology. He believes that this world only exists in a book, and we are all characters in the book, and the author of this book Another character in another book, just like Russian dolls, one world is superimposed on another world, endlessly. He also believes that there are many parallel worlds outside our world, because a book , obviously there are many copies of the same kind. When someone deletes, adds, or changes content in a certain book, that parallel world will change, and the other us in the book will also change accordingly. A different fate. If this book is destroyed, then our world is over."

"Very imaginative!" Xia Duo exclaimed.

"Yeah, the most amazing thing is that you can't refute his theory at all. Because as a character in a book, you don't know that you only exist in the book, so you feel that your world is real and undeniable Yes." Qin Dangmian laughed.

"Then how did he find out that the world is just a book?" Mo Bei asked.

"He said that the 'he' in another book told him that the book was changed, so that 'he' gained the ability to communicate with himself in other parallel worlds. Now the 'he' 'I'm trying to make all of myself aware of this...reality." Qin Dangmian shrugged.

The young man who was standing in a daze by the window turned his head to look at them, with a polite smile on his thin face.Mo Bei also smiled at him and nodded politely.

"And that person," Qin Dangmian pointed to a man who was seriously playing table tennis with his patient, he was struggling to move his obese body, with a happy smile on his face, "he pleases everyone and is very scared Being hated by others. He is always worried about hearing negative comments about himself from others, so places with too many people will make him afraid, because he can’t tell whether others are talking about him. So he fantasizes that he has grown double Ears as long as rabbits."

Xia Duo looked carefully for a while, and found that the man's smile seemed to be painted on his face.

Qin Dangmian walked over to stop the friendly match, and said to another patient: "Let him rest for a while." The patient pouted and nodded reluctantly.The fat man wiped his sweat and smiled at Qin Dangmian.Qin Dangmian patted him on the shoulder: "You have to learn to refuse, stop playing if you don't want to play, and speak up."

The fat man smiled hesitantly: "Okay, doctor."

Qin Dangmian shook his head, the fat man immediately became nervous and blinked uneasily.Qin Dangmian smiled reassuringly at him: "It's nothing, you're fine. You're really fine."

The fat man seemed relieved, thanked Qin Dangmian, walked to the bench by the wall and sat down.An old man walked up to him tremblingly and looked straight at him. The fat man stood up uneasily, asked the old man to sit down, and sat on the other side.The old man stood up again, walked up to the fat man and looked at him, and the fat man had to stand up again to give the old man his seat.The two of them repeated this several times. The fat man had a smile on his face, but his brow was covered with sweat, as if he was about to cry.It wasn't until a nurse came and took the old man away that the fat man was freed.

Xia Duo sighed: "It's so tiring to live like this."

Qin Dangmian said: "That's why they come here for treatment."

Xia Duo asked: "Can it be cured?"

Qin Dangmian did not answer directly, "Society is like a petri dish, where all kinds of germs are breeding, and there is no real vacuum chamber that can be isolated."

Xia Duo was at a loss.

The last one we visited was a special area. Some patients would injure themselves or others, and the risk was relatively high, so they were strictly guarded in this area.Some patients were confined to beds in straitjackets, while others could only be kept in single rooms.Looking in through the observation window on the door, Xia Duo felt that these places were more like prisons, but he also knew that these methods and measures were necessary for some patients.

After returning to Qin Dangmian's office, after dealing with Zheng Dong's parents' inquiries and thanks, Mo Bei was already showing signs of fatigue.Although Qin Dangmian seemed to want to chat with Mo Bei again, Xia Duo firmly stated that he would take Mo Bei back to rest.

Qin Dangmian was very sorry. He half-jokingly explained that he was also a book fan of Mo Bei, but he didn't talk to Mo Bei much today - basically Xia Duo was talking to him.

Xia Duo didn't feel embarrassed, he knew intuitively that Mo Bei didn't like to talk too much with this doctor Qin, but in order to avoid being cold, he could only pick up the conversation.

Qin Dangmian sent them all the way to the gate of the hospital, and said, "We may need Teacher Beiwei to come again in a few days..."

Before he finished speaking, Mo Bei interrupted bluntly and said coldly: "I don't have this obligation, you understand."

Mo Bei has always been very polite today, Qin Dangmian didn't expect that Mo Bei would suddenly throw a face at the end, he didn't know how to answer the words for a while, and was completely stunned.

Mo Bei said: "Please also tell Zheng Dong's parents, they begged me to come to see Zheng Dong, I came, but only this once. If you want to harass me or my family and friends for this matter in the future, then I will I can only call the police, or use other methods to make them sober. Zheng Dong's matter has nothing to do with me, and I don't need to take any responsibility for him, let alone accept and cooperate with your request."

Qin Dangmian said awkwardly: "Okay, I will tell you."

"Thank you very much." Mo Bei said sarcastically.

"Beibei, have you finished washing?" Xia Duo leaned weakly on the bathroom door, "You have been washing for almost three hours, dear, now I really want to go to the toilet, can you let me in? "

The door finally opened, and Mo Bei came out wrapped in a bathrobe, his dark eyes were blocked by the wet Liu Haier, and his palm-sized face looked extraordinarily pale and transparent.Xia Duo rushed into the steaming bathroom like a rabbit eager to commit suicide by crashing into a tree, and while unzipping his trousers to release the water, he asked loudly, "Beibei, are you feeling better?"

Mo Bei didn't answer, he was looking for clean clothes from the closet to change, this must be done quickly, otherwise when Xia Duo came out of the bathroom, he would seize the opportunity to attack him.

As soon as he put on his coat, he heard Xia Duo sigh in disappointment behind him: "Oh!"

The corners of Mo Bei's tightly pursed lips curled up.

Xia Duo consciously wiped Mo Bei's hair with a towel. At this time, Mo Bei was always very obedient, because of the height difference, as if he was about to snuggle up to Xia Duo's chest, which made Xia Duo very satisfied.

Wiping the water drops from Mo Bei's ears with a corner of the towel, Xia Duo asked again: "Are you feeling better?"

"Well." Mo Bei's voice was a little muffled, "When you leave later, help me take out the clothes I'm wearing today and burn them. Don't throw them away, burn them."

"Oh. Can you tell me what happened now? I think you seem to have a special distaste for that place."

Mo Bei cursed in his heart, Xia Xiaoduo's intuition was so keen that one wondered if he could use spells like "He Xintong".

Xia Duo didn't urge him, and when he wiped Mo Bei's hair half dry, he took the towel and washed it to dry, and cleaned up the wet bathroom by the way.Then Xia Duuo came out and sat opposite Mo Bei, looking at him with an expression of "are you ready?"

Mo Bei opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, so he made a gesture.

Xia Duo asked knowingly: "You hate being forced so much, why did you agree to see Zheng Dong?"

"Curiosity, I want to know what is the purpose of them asking me to see Zheng Dong. Is there something special about Zheng Dong's mental illness, or someone wants to do something through Zheng Dong."

"Then Zheng Dong?"

"It's true that I'm sick. I can't tell you the specific symptoms. I'm not a doctor."

"Does that Doctor Qin have a problem?"

"Obviously, isn't it? Zheng Dong was just hospitalized, and he probably hasn't even decided on a treatment plan. He actually agreed to let me, an irrelevant person, meet Zheng Dong, and he wasn't afraid of having a negative impact on Zheng Dong's illness. Let Zheng Dong It was his idea that my parents came to me...or maybe it was his colleague surnamed Luo."

Mo Bei frowned, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and told himself that he was overly nervous. "Moreover, he took us to the inpatient areas of those special patients, which should not be allowed according to the hospital's regulations. If he just showed us around, why did he do this?"

Xia Duo suddenly said, "I always felt something was wrong, he was too enthusiastic. But why would he do this?"

Mo Bei raised his eyebrows: "I want to know too."

Xia Duo wanted to say something, but Mo Bei had already started to push people away: "I'm tired and want to rest."

Xia Duo found more than a dozen reasons but failed to get Mo Bei to agree to him staying, so he had to find a plastic bag to take away the clothes that Mo Bei had changed, thinking about where to burn the clothes so as not to attract attention.Burning clothes... No matter how you think about it, this behavior is a bit weird and ominous.

After Xia Duo left, Mo Bei stood at the door in a daze for a while, and stretched out his palms, which were white and wrinkled by the water, to look at them for a long time. He didn't seem to be awakened until there was a loud sound of closing the door from the neighbor's house.From a wooden glove box, I found a set of drilling tools that Wei Yuxuan brought back from Beijing, and sat on the floor by the window of the study.

There is a thick futon under the body, and the bamboo curtain with the Tao Te Ching written in front of it is spread out, and the small blue and white porcelain incense burner, incense seal, ash, incense ash, incense knife, mica slice, mica clip, incense sweeper, lighter, etc., are placed in the same place. Set it up the same way.After thinking about it, he put away the mica pieces and other tools, leaving only the tools for making seal seals.

Mo Bei sat quietly for a while, feeling much calmer, and then poured incense ash into the small incense burner, and used the ash to make it smooth.Put the lotus-shaped incense seal on the incense ashes, fill in the agarwood powder along the carved pattern of the incense seal and press it tightly. After the incense seal is taken away, a lotus-shaped incense stick is left on the incense ashes.Finally, use a lighter to light the incense burner, and use an incense broom to sweep away the incense ash on the edge of the incense burner.

These steps are not cumbersome, but Mo Bei's movements are very slow step by step, and he is also tidying up his thoughts like a waterfall.

Cross your legs, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and the mellow aroma floats to your nose like strands of silk.

Mo Bei focused all his attention on his breathing, feeling the movements of his chest and abdomen muscles following each breath; he felt the feeling of a ray of agarwood sneaking into his lungs from his nose and circulating in his body.Every distracting thought arises and disappears immediately, and in the end there is only a six-character mantra resounding slowly: Om Mani Padme Hum (1).

When Mo Bei broke away from meditation, the incense had already been burned out, the night was dark, and the moonlight stained Mo Bei in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with frost.
