mayfly shake the tree

In a trance, at the end of the fog.

The dazzling light passed by in an instant, and what I saw in my eyes was a bamboo forest.Qi Xi always felt that this place was very familiar, but it seemed that he had never been here before.

There was wet ground under her feet, she walked cautiously through the bamboo forest, and she seemed to hear voices after walking not far.

"You are really merciful. Do you want to follow Buddha's example of cutting meat and feeding it to eagles?"

"What do you mean by that? I just want to make another friend, and he is so sincere, how can I refuse?"

Qi Xi carefully pushed aside the branches in front of him, and what came into view was a towering tree. The trunk of the tree went straight up to the sky, and there was no end in sight. The thick branches were almost several meters wide, and the leaves on the tree were green. Desperately, this seems to be the toon tree that I have dreamed of many times.

The two people next to the trunk seemed to be arguing, but judging by their attire, why did they look like ancient people?One of them blocked the other from turning his back to him, his long hair was tied in a bun on his shoulders, and he looked quite immortal.

Just as he was watching in a daze, suddenly another person took a few steps forward, turned around, and faced Qi Xi's direction,

! ! ! !

This is... Qi Xi almost screamed out, isn't this her savior that day?

But the person I saw now had a long gown and long hair, and a fiery red robe draped over his body. He looked charming and coquettish, but his eyes were sharp and angry.

Why does he look so angry?Who is that man across from him?What is this place?Why am I here?

A series of questions hit Qi Xi one after another.

The voices of the two people arguing seemed to be getting quieter, and Qi Xi wanted to hear it more clearly, so he took a few steps forward, and one of them fell into a river without paying attention, and before he had time to cry out, he suddenly woke up.

She looked at the ceiling above her head in a daze, and smelled the smell of disinfectant in her nose.Hey... I came to the hospital again, so what I saw just now was just a dream...

But it's only been a week and I've already been to the hospital twice, I really don't know if it's because I'm too old this year or what, why is Mercury retrograde like this.

"You're awake." Qi Xi looked at it, and who was not Mu Da who was smiling slightly next to him? "Ah... Mu Da..." "My real name is Meng Ke, just call me A Ke." He corrected her with a smile, "Otherwise I'll always be Mu Da Mu Da, it sounds weird..."

"...Uh, what's wrong with me?" Qi Xi looked at him innocently.

"You fainted suddenly when you asked me to sign for you, which really shocked me. I was rushed to the hospital. It seemed that I had low blood sugar. As an editor, why do you know how to take care of yourself better than the author?" Meng Ke It seems a little helpless.

"Uh... Maybe I'm too busy with work recently... But thank you for sending me to the hospital, did it delay your schedule?"

"It's nothing. I originally planned to stay in City A for two more days. I live in City F. It's only a few hours by car. There's no rush."

"Oh...that's good."

For a while, no one spoke, and the ward fell into an inexplicable embarrassment.

"Meng Ke." Qi Xi suddenly called out to him softly. "Um?"

Taking a deep breath, she slowly said: "Have you ever encountered any strange things or strange people before. The strange things I'm talking about are not just ordinary strange things, but the kind that go against the natural logic. For example... past life and present life..."

"Past life and present life?" Meng Ke's pupils shrank slightly, and he unconsciously rubbed the palm of his left hand with his right hand, "I haven't heard of this, but I have indeed encountered strange things."

"Huh? For example? Can you tell me?" Qi Xi was immediately aroused curiosity.

"Look." Meng Ke showed her the palm of his left hand. Inside, there was a deep scar from the thumb to the little finger.

Qi Xi was puzzled: "This scar...was it when you were cut by some sharp weapon when you were young?"

Meng Ke smiled lightly, "You may not believe it, but a year ago, the scar didn't exist at all. At the beginning of this year, when I woke up, this thing suddenly appeared on my hand, which shocked me a lot. ...and I'm pretty sure my hand was still intact before I went to bed."

Qi Xi suddenly opened his eyes wide: "You mean, this scar seems to appear out of nowhere? How is this possible?"

"I went to the doctor to ask about the situation. Guess what he said?" Meng Ke suddenly narrowed his eyes and stared at her with a half-smile.

Qi Xi felt a little panicked: "Ah, what do you say?"

"He said, isn't your hand as good as ever? Where did the scar come from? You haven't woken up from a dream." Qi He was stunned, but he continued on his own, "I went to ask a few friends again. , none of them saw this inexplicable scar, that is to say, only I can see it. I thought I was crazy at first, but, Qi Xi, you can see it too, so how can this be explained?" Meng Ke leaned closer In order to show her the scar, he still had that half-smile expression on his face, but Qi Xi felt a chill rise from his back.

The hand in front of her had well-defined joints, was slender and white, without the calluses caused by the friction of the right hand that often held a pen, but the scar ran across the entire palm, looking hideous and terrifying, as if mocking her timidity cowardice.

"I... how do I know..." Qi Xi's forehead twitched, she felt something was wrong, but she couldn't say it.

She wanted to turn around and press the hospital bed button, but she couldn't.

"You don't need to know...because..." Meng Ke suddenly leaned down and leaned closer to her ear, "I lied to you."

……

Qi Xi was completely stunned.

The author has something to say:

It feels like Wen has been developing in a strange direction... emmm
