Chapter 77: Possession Syndrome
Wu Xian withdrew his thoughts.
Start looking around the room.
The room was empty, with only one light, one door, and a huge mirror on the left wall.
The rest of the ceiling, floor and walls were all made of cold metal plates. There was a dog hole more than 30 centimeters high on the wall covered by the big snake.
Wu Xian was surprised: "How did it use its paws to dig a hole in the metal plate?"
He shook his head, walked to the mirror, put his fingers on it, and his fingertips fit together seamlessly.
"Well, it's one-way glass, so this is kind of an observation room?"
After exploring the room for a while, Wu Xian pushed open the only door with great anticipation. Behind the door was a corridor with light at the end of it.
It is said in the certificate of ordination.
Leaving the gate of the blessed land, it is in a conspicuous place, perhaps you can see it when you walk out of this corridor!
Wu Xian has been in the loop for too long and is getting a little bored. Now he wants to leave this paradise as soon as possible and go to the real world to enjoy a wonderful life.
However, the end of the corridor made Wu Xian somewhat disappointed.
It was a messy room that looked like a laboratory, with five men and women in white coats working.
"Patient number three has entered the pupa state."
"The incineration procedure for Ward 5 has been completed. New patients can be admitted."
"Patient No. 17..."
When they saw Wu Xian, they were stunned at first, then thought for a few seconds, and then a look of horror appeared on their faces. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Wu Xian repeatedly.
"Congratulations to the old immortal for coming to the human world. It would be a great sin if I could not greet you. We are willing to be your servants, working hard without complaint and waiting for your orders. We only ask that you can spare our lives..."
This scene was really beyond Wu Xian's expectations.
He observed these people carefully and found that they were kneeling on the ground, shivering, covered in cold sweat, and dared not even raise their heads.
Wu Xian understood instantly.
If everything goes well, the person who walked out of the snake's mouth should be the evil spirit Wen Yong who has successfully taken over another body.
These people regarded Wu Xian as an evil spirit, so they were so afraid.
They kept the lowest posture because they were afraid that Wu Xian would take their lives at will. It seemed that in this world, the existence of evil spirits was no secret.
Wu Xian turned around and remained silent for almost half a minute.
He gave up the idea of disguising himself as an evil spirit, turned around, and asked in a puzzled manner.
"What are you talking about? It sounds like a line from a play. Why can't I understand it?"
Hearing Wu Xian's doubts, the five men in white coats calmed down, their trembling gradually stopped, and a man with glasses standing in the front stood up tremblingly.
"You are really not... an old immortal?"
Wu Xian rolled his eyes: "Of course not, do I look old?"
The five of them breathed a sigh of relief.
The man with glasses took out a crude-looking instrument, ran a few tests on Wu Xian, and an expression of surprise gradually appeared on his face!
"He's cured! He's been cured! The first person who has recovered from the Possession Syndrome has appeared!"
"We made it!"
After hearing what the man with glasses said, the other four people all stood up, unable to suppress the excitement on their faces. They hugged each other and cheered. One woman even cried so hard that her snot and tears covered the other person.
Wu Xian thinks.
Their performance was somewhat exaggerated.
So he raised a hand.
"I'm sorry to ruin the atmosphere, but can anyone explain to me what's going on here?"
The man with glasses calmed down and supported the frame of his glasses with his fingers.
"Let me explain it to you. You should be impressed by my name." "My name is Xu Ming."
……
This world is generally not much different from the real world.
The only difference is that in this world, science and technology are developing rapidly and the spirit of invention is prevalent.
Xu Ming is a renowned genius inventor.
One day a few years ago, he received funding from a mysterious sponsor to develop a medical device to treat schizophrenia.
The principle of this device is to allow all schizophrenic bodies to enter a virtual scene, and through an infinite loop of plots, gradually erode the self-consciousness of the split mental bodies, allowing schizophrenic patients to return to normal life.
There were many difficulties in developing this device.
But the sponsor provided some key technical support, so the device was eventually successfully developed.
To commemorate his own achievement, Xu named the device "New Life" and named the three characters in the infinite loop plot after himself and two other developers.
These three names are Xu, Jia, and Wei.
The new product quickly passed medical tests and went into mass production, with very encouraging sales.
Even Xu Ming himself did not expect that there are so many people in this world suffering from schizophrenia. He is very proud of his achievements, and new equipment has become a label for him.
But there is still a trouble that has been bothering Xu Ming.
He always receives complaints from patients' relatives who say that since the patients have used the new equipment, they seem to have become a different person, becoming very strange and scary.
But Xu Ming didn't care at first.
As for treating mental illness, if after treatment the patient remains the same as before, can it still be considered a treatment?
But when the complaints become numerous enough.
Xu Ming still became suspicious.
Could it be that my new equipment really has hidden risks?
So he found the original R&D team and decided to test it again. Among them, Jia, who had the most doubts about the instrument, volunteered to serve as the experimental subject.
After the experiment.
The first sentence that Jia said made everyone feel cold inside.
"This device is so easy to use, it has no hidden dangers and does not need any improvement. It should not only be used to treat schizophrenia. It is uniquely interesting and can be sold as a gaming device. All VR devices on the market are not as good as our new device."
Any responsible inventor.
No one would say that an invention has no room for improvement, let alone promote medical equipment as gaming equipment without testing!
Xu Ming felt a bone-chilling cold, and fear surged from deep within his heart.
He managed to deal with the surname Jia with difficulty.
As soon as the experiment was over, Xu Ming immediately reported it to the Investigation Bureau. The Investigation Bureau had received many similar complaints, so it attached great importance to the opinions of Xu Ming, the inventor of the new device, and immediately sent a team to arrest him.
However, all those who went to arrest the Jia family were killed!
And the death was extremely tragic.
The inspector who came to inform Xu Ming was covered in cold sweat.
When describing the scene, he wanted to vomit several times. There was not a single complete body at the entire scene, and all the body fragments had been deliberately adjusted and placed on a huge round table in the most eye-catching way.
Like a bloody feast!
Canopus Antarctica.
From "Historical Records. Eight Books. Book of Celestial Palaces". The section after the Western Palace.
There is a big star on the ground of Langbi, called the Old Man of the South Pole. When the Old Man is seen, the country will be peaceful; when he is not seen, war will break out. He is usually seen in the southern suburbs at the time of the autumnal equinox.
------
The author said: You see, Canopus is really good at fighting. When he is around, he can keep the peace and prosperity in the country. When he is not around, there will be war...
Forced explanation, hehe.
