Chapter 365 And you just passed away like flying snow
"All conditioned phenomena are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning, and should be viewed as such."
--"Diamond Sutra"
"Mr. Jiutian...Mr. Jiutian?"
"Um?"
Jiutian sat on the chair and came to his senses, the setting sun shone in from outside the window.
"Are you okay?" the gentle-looking woman behind the desk asked softly.
"Ah, I...it's okay. I tend to be in a daze lately." Jiutian straightened his body slightly.
Then he started to look around.
"Where...is this? Where am I?"
"This is a hospital, and I'm your doctor." The woman's tone became a little more serious when she saw Jiutian's reaction.
"Oh yes, this is a hospital, you are my doctor..." Jiutian repeated the woman's words.
"What am I doing here?" Jiutian asked.
Doctor? Why is she my doctor? Jiutian doesn’t know why his mind is so groggy that he can’t think more deeply.
"You came to me for psychological consultation." The doctor said, "Do you still remember what you said to me before you fell into a daze?"
Before I was in a daze? What did I do before I was in a daze?
Jiutian couldn't remember it, but his mouth made a sound on its own.
"Yes, I still remember."
"I had a dream."
Sitting on a chair for a long time, the sunset slanted in from the window.
"What kind of dream?" the doctor asked, turning the pen in his hand.
"In the dream, I turned into a one-eyed black giant, and the world turned into ruins," Jiutian said.
"I stepped through those ruins, just like stepping through a cemetery. There were tears in my one eye, and then they started to flow."
"So I started to devour everything, my world, my closest relatives..."
Jiutian felt very warm, probably because he was wearing a knitted sweater.
It is already late autumn, the temperature has begun to get very low, and many places have also received their first snow.
Jiutian was born in the south, so he rarely sees snow in his memory. For him, winter is more about fog and frost.
"Dreams are all fake, you know it." The doctor wrote and drew on the list.
Are all dreams fake?
The autumn leaves outside the window are spinning and falling, as if many things happen in autumn.
The sun was warm, and my nose was filled with the scent of flowers and ink.
"Is there any rosemary?" Jiutian suddenly asked.
"Huh?" The doctor looked up in confusion.
"I smell rosemary." Jiutian said.
"Oh." As if he remembered something, the doctor took out a sachet from the backpack on the table.
"Is this this? I bought it on the way to work in the morning."
"Yeah." Jiutian looked at the sachet and nodded, "It smells good."
"Your nose is quite good." The doctor smiled, as beautiful as rosemary.
"Mr. Jiutian... your surname is really rare." The doctor put down the sachet and returned his gaze to the medical record. "I have a general understanding of your situation. According to the preliminary judgment... it is nightmare syndrome."
"Nightmare?" Jiutian asked.
"Well, to put it simply, it is a normal psychological phenomenon caused by excessive fatigue, indigestion or excessive tension in the cerebral cortex. Maybe it is because you have been under a lot of stress recently." The doctor explained.
"Really?" Jiutian frowned, trying to recall what he had done recently, but found nothing.
The warm orange sun looks very attractive, perhaps because the light is better today, so there is no light on in this room.
But compared to the sunlight, it is still a little dim here, so the projection on Jiutian's body creates an obvious boundary line.
On one side is a face illuminated by the sun, clear and thin.
On one side is a face sunken into darkness, blurry.
For a long time I wanted to reach out and touch the sun.
Suddenly there was a roar from next door.
Jiutian took back his hand.
"What is that sound?" Jiutian asked.
"Oh." The doctor blinked and said, "Maybe some patients have become ill again. Recently we have admitted some new mental patients."
"Will I also be admitted?" Jiutian was a little worried.
"No, you just have a normal mental disorder, and you are not aggressive." The doctor smiled and said, "And we are not a law enforcement agency. To admit patients, we need the consent and signature of the family members."
"That's right." Jiutian nodded.
"I'll prescribe you some medicine later. When you get back, pay more attention to rest and ensure sleep. If you have any sleep disorders, I'll prescribe you some sleeping pills." The doctor began to write and draw on the list again.
Jiutian turned his head to one side and didn't look at her. He didn't like the doctor writing and drawing.
"Okay, go get the medicine." The doctor handed him the finished list, "Your friend is still waiting for you outside."
Jiutian's outstretched hand froze.
"I... didn't come alone?"
"No." The doctor frowned slowly when he saw his reaction, "Mr. Jiutian, your recent memory...isn't it a little bad?"
"I, I don't know." Jiutian felt like his head was in chaos.
"Well, just to be on the safe side, you can do a brain CT scan." The doctor took back the sheet and typed on the keyboard again.
"Okay..." Jiutian retracted his hand helplessly.
What's wrong with you? Are you really crazy?
"Also, please call your friend in. I have something to ask him." The doctor's tone became a little serious.
Okay, okay, it's your doctor who has the final say, just like a judge.
Jiutian complained in his heart as he walked to the door and put his hand on the handle.
From a probability perspective, when you open a door, anyone and anything may appear outside.
No matter whether that thing is what you want to see.
When Jiutian slowly turned the door handle and the door slowly opened, Jiutian's pupils also gradually contracted.
His heart seemed to be clenched.
A beautiful face, a smile with no flaws at all, a well-proportioned and slender figure, and a temperament that belongs exclusively to a wealthy family...
"Hey, how are you? Are you done with the consultation?" Dongfang Yi greeted Jiutian familiarly.
"You..." Jiutian's eyes widened, and he even looked at the person in front of him in horror, "Why you?"
"What's going on?" Dongfang Yi was a little confused, "How come the doctor who went in to see me for dozens of minutes didn't even recognize me?"
"No, no, it shouldn't be yours, it shouldn't be you, how could it be you?!" Jiutian kept repeating similar words as if he had lost the ability to speak.
It can be seen from his expression that the person standing in front of him is definitely not what Jiutian wants to see.
Although Jiutian didn't know why he was so repelled by this person, his instinct told him that he must not let him get too close to him.
This person is dangerous.
"Brother, your reaction makes me extremely sad." Dongfang Yi spread his hands looking a little disappointed, "I didn't do anything to feel sorry for you, right? You asked me to accompany you to see the doctor today."
"I asked you to come?" Jiutian was a little in disbelief.
"That's right." Dongfang Yi looked at Jiutian a little strangely, "You don't have a fever that has burned your brain, right?"
As he said that, Dongfang Yi was about to step forward and touch Jiutian's forehead, but Jiutian subconsciously took a step back and stretched out his hand to summon or control something...
Hmm? What do I want to control?
"This sir." The doctor saw the two men's actions and couldn't help but remind him, "Are you here with Mr. Jiutian?"
"Yes, I am his best friend." Dongfang Yi saw the doctor asking himself and retracted his hand.
"It's like this. Mr. Jiutian's mental state has been unstable recently. You need to take him to have a brain CT to confirm the condition of his brain." The doctor said.
"Brain CT?" Dongfang Yi frowned, "Is it already so serious?"
"It depends on the CT results. If there is no physical damage, then it's fine." The doctor said.
"Sigh." Dongfang Yi sighed, "I didn't expect that your girlfriend would be so irritating to you after something happened."
"Girlfriend?" Jiutian was stunned.
"You can't even remember Yunyun, can you?" Dongfang Yi said in surprise.
"Mr. Jiutian hasn't mentioned this to me, can you tell me about it?" the doctor said.
"It's like this. Jiutian's girlfriend Wen Yunyun was in a car accident some time ago. Maybe this incident gave him a big stimulus and made him a little confused during this period." Dongfang Yi explained.
"No wonder." The doctor seemed to suddenly realize.
The two of them were communicating, but they didn't notice Jiutian who was standing next to them.
Yunyun? Wen Yunyun?
Jiutian felt like his head was about to explode.
Just a name made him feel depressed as if possessed.
"No...no." Jiutian muttered to himself.
"No, it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be you." Jiutian held his head in pain, and a tingling feeling began to emerge in the depths of his mind.
"Why can't I remember, why did you appear in front of me?" Jiutian kept asking questions that no one could answer.
Suddenly, he raised his head.
"You...I remember you!" Jiutian pointed at the doctor with trembling fingers.
"I've seen you, right? You're not a doctor, you're Qing..."
Dongfang Yi and the doctor looked at each other, and both saw the uneasiness in the other's eyes.
"Jiutian, something's wrong with you now. Is it because I mentioned Wen Yunyun?" Dongfang Yi lowered his body as much as possible and spoke as softly as possible.
"Sorry, I didn't mean it. Don't get too excited. Come to me." Dongfang Yi waved to Jiutian and approached him.
"No, don't come close to me!" Jiutian roared, and at some point he grasped the fruit knife on the table.
Dongfang Yi flew towards him at the next moment, trying to snatch the knife from his hand. However, Jiutian's body reacted instantly, and he sided away from Dongfang Yi as if he had practiced it a hundred times.
Bang!
Dongfang Yi jumped away and hit the sofa directly.
"Good guy, you sit in the office every day and don't exercise. Why are you so flexible all of a sudden?" Dongfang Yi grinned and covered his butt.
"You, don't get excited, don't hurt us..." The doctor's face was full of horror when he saw Jiutian's expression and the knife shining in his hand.
"No, you are all fake, you are all fake..." Jiutian's facial features were extremely ferocious.
"You're all lying to me, you liars!"
After saying that, Jiutian threw down the things in his hands, turned around and rushed out of the door.
