When I logged off gloomily, the sky was still dark. In the game, I spent more than an hour 'appraising' the three 'commoner's equipment sets beside the magic array. In the end, I had no choice but to log off under the urging of the system. I didn't understand why the system gave me the words' unappraised 'after giving me the three equipment sets. Then, it didn't appraise me successfully. I don't know if the system had another meaning ~~ or if my' appraising 'level wasn't high enough. But no matter what, I still logged off with a depressed and confused mood…
After I took off my helmet, I felt a sharp pain from my feet. I almost screamed. It felt like I was being cut into pieces. Every muscle was very hard, as if I was cramping, but it was a hundred times more painful than cramping. I had no choice but to pull over a blanket and stuff it into my mouth while biting it. I silently endured the pain that was wreaking havoc on my feet. Fortunately, I hadn't eaten or drunk for almost a day, so my stomach was empty. Otherwise, I would have been incontinent.
I don't know how long that pain lasted. It only slowly left my body when I felt like I was about to collapse. During this period of time, my back was already wet. The pain made me feel as if it had been a century…After the pain was gone, I felt a sense of relaxation from my feet. Then, I felt an itch from my bones. This itch made you want to vent your anger. An impulse to run wildly…In short, stopping you was worse than killing you.
Finally, I couldn't take the torture of this feeling anymore. I put on a pair of sweatpants and a pair of worn-out sneakers and ran out…When I arrived at the empty space in front of the house, the first thing I did was to use my self-created " Chain Kick." My movements were very skilled and smooth. Every kick was like a gust of wind. I didn't have the strength of the heart but wasn't strong enough in the past. Every kick was able to reach the realm of " strength of the heart ". Actually, I wasn't a martial arts expert, and I didn't have any magical opportunities. It's not like in wuxia novels, where I give a beggar a bowl of rice and he gives me some martial arts…I'm just an ordinary person who's just a little obsessed with action movies. I can imitate every move of Jet Li's "Jingwu Gate." Although many people have told me that the martial arts in movies and television are all lies and that they don't work in reality, I'm still fascinated by them. There are two reasons…First, I don't want to use him to fight with others. Secondly, I think his movements…this style of play is very nice…it's simply too cool.
At the same time, I also like Muay Thai's knee slam, Taekwondo's chain kick, and my boxing style is the Tianchao style's 'Bone-breaking Hand' and 'Hong Kung'. However, I've only learned these from television and have never tried them out on humans. On the empty ground, I was completely focused on my energy. I didn't even notice how fast I was punching, kicking, and running. In the eyes of others, I was as fast as lightning and as fast as the wind...
Only after venting all the energy in my body did I sit down on a rock beside me, panting heavily. First, it was the pain of breaking my bones and tendons, then the pleasure of venting my energy with all my might. The two feelings made me feel like I was in hell and heaven. Although I didn't understand why my body was in such a bad condition, I could clearly feel that my body was changing. I couldn't say whether this change was good or bad. I only knew that I couldn't die at this time.
Although I never gave up on my life, at this moment, I cherished it more seriously than usual because I saw hope in this game. I believed that it could bring me high medical fees and bring a lot of wealth to my family. And 'the body is the capital of revolution', so I have to protect myself all the time. Thinking of this, I quickly wiped the sweat off my body and returned to the house to boil some water and take a hot bath. I didn't want to give myself a chance to catch a cold. After rummaging through the cabinets, I finally found the 'follow-up visit card' that I had abandoned at the side. This 'follow-up visit card' was given to me by the doctor when I fainted and was sent to Ren Ai Hospital...
Ren Ai Hospital is a very famous hospital in B City. The advanced equipment in the hospital is not inferior to the famous hospitals overseas. Of course, the treatment fee is also shocking…However, this hospital has my medical record. I have to go and get it back. This way, I can save a sum of money for the re-examination.
I looked at the alarm clock and saw that it was already six o'clock. I put on a tracksuit and took 1,000 yuan with me before leaving the house. The autumn morning was a little cold. Perhaps it was because of the intense exercise just now that I couldn't feel the temperature around me at all. Now that I was out of the door, I couldn't help but shrink my neck to prevent the cold wind from entering through my collar.
The autumn sun in B City rose very late. The sky was still gray after six o'clock. The reason why I set off so early was that Ren Ai Hospital was very far from the old district. I couldn't bear to spend three yuan on the bus fare, so I had to walk forward. At the same time, to save time, I chose a shortcut... The so-called shortcut was to take some small roads to make the road straight. However, these paths were very messy. You would often find candles, cigarette papers, disposable syringes, the stench of urine and feces, condoms, bloody knives... Occasionally, you would see a few bullet shells and some drunk drunkards. And if you're lucky, you'll also encounter a scene similar to the one described in novels, where a hero saves a damsel in distress…
Halfway through the road, I saw a few young men with colorful hair blocking the entrance of an alley and laughing wickedly. This scene made me think that the person in the alley might be a beautiful girl with disheveled clothes. According to the plot of the novel, the 'hero' would appear at this moment... which meant that the 'male pig trotters' would appear immediately. Then, he would defeat these hooligans with just a few punches and kicks and finally win the beauty!!
But what about heroes? I looked around and realized that there was really no one around me…"Looks like I have to be the 'hero' myself. I don't know if I can win…Forget it, I'll just run…I can't just leave him to die, right? "This is worthy of the 'silly'(chivalrous) name that my father gave me…" After thinking about it, I stepped forward and said,"Hey, what are you guys doing? If you don't leave now, I'm going to call the police…"
"What's wrong? Kid, you want to be a busybody?) Isn't that right?" A green-haired hooligan pointed his wooden stick at me and said fiercely. I knew that I couldn't let this matter go so easily, so I had to strike first to gain the upper hand. I took a big step forward and grabbed the wooden stick with my left hand. I kicked the hooligan's chest with my right foot. The hooligan's wooden stick immediately flew out of his hand and crashed into the other hooligans, causing them to fall into a pile.
"Humph! Why aren't you getting lost?" I didn't expect these people to be sent flying by my kick. My confidence instantly increased, and my voice was naturally full of energy.
" Brothers, chop him up…" The little bastards didn't run away like what was described in the novel. Instead, they picked up iron pipes and wooden sticks and rushed at me…But it was true. A novel was a novel after all, and reality was reality after all. It was impossible to defeat one and then run away.
A few of them pounced on me like wolves and tigers. I was so nervous that I got hit a few times. However, I don't know why their sticks didn't hurt or itch when they hit me like an 'inflatable baton'. With this discovery, I no longer cared about the iron pipe and wooden stick in their hands. I lowered my body to dodge the iron rod that came at me. Then, I squeezed forward and hit one of them off the ground with a right hook. Before he landed on the ground, I gave him an elbow strike in the abdomen. This elbow strike caused all the air in his abdomen to be expelled. After falling to the ground, he didn't get up for a long time. However, I didn't stop. After the elbow strike, I spun around and kicked. My left foot heavily kicked the other person's chest. That person immediately flew out…In an instant, I killed another two people. Only three people were left standing.
"Do you still want to fight?" I sneered.
"..." The three of them looked at each other in panic. They obviously didn't expect me to be so fierce that I could knock the two of them to the ground in an instant. Then, they knew that even if the three of them worked together, they wouldn't be able to gain any advantage. So, they helped their moaning companion who was on the ground to the side and fled in a panic after saying a few harsh words."Kid, be careful…"
"..." Their words made me nervous. The underworld was not something that people like us could afford to provoke. I also regretted being a busybody. You have to know that many people would be killed in the underworld's fights every year. In addition, Xiong San's death made me feel a sense of disgust and fear towards the underworld.
After those hooligans were beaten away, I went to the alley where they had surrounded me earlier. I was prepared to see my 'beauty' of 'saving the damsel in distress' when I saw a man. The man was about my age. He had a refined and tender skin. He even wore a pair of glasses and looked like a student…Actually, I was inexperienced. He was wearing the famous school uniform of Shengqiang Academy in B City. I was very disappointed in my heart, so I naturally couldn't hide the disappointment in my tone."Are you alright?"
My tone was clearly disappointed, but in the man's ears, it became a cold tone. " Thank you…I, Dong Baiyu, will repay you…" He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said.
"..." I glanced at him indifferently. There were some bruises on his face. It seemed that he had been taught a lesson. He said he wanted to repay me, but I didn't care."You're not a beauty, and you can't devote yourself to me…If you give me money, why don't you take a look at your broken shoes…"
" Forget it, there's no need…" Seeing that he was fine, I turned around and left.
"Can you tell me your name? "I, Dong Baiyu, will repay you…" Even after I walked far away, he still stubbornly shouted behind me. And I just waved my hand with my back facing him, indicating that there was no need…
"White Feather, White Feather…White fish?! Hehe, what a strange name.”I laughed in my heart and walked away.
It was already past eight o'clock when I arrived at Ren Ai Hospital. The sun had just lazily " got up to go to work " at this time, using its light to disperse the chill in the air. After paying the registration fee of 20 yuan, I sat on the bench and waited for the nurse's notification. Because I came early, there weren't many patients, so it was my turn very soon…
" Please take a seat, Mr. Liu…" After entering a treatment room, a doctor in a white gown politely invited me to take a seat. This once again showed me the service attitude of Ren Ai Hospital. Hearing such a pleasant tone early in the morning, the patient's heart would first lighten a little. If it were any other hospital, of course, you could also receive this 'god-like' service, but God had become a doctor. Who asked you to ask for help when you were sick?
He was the doctor who announced that I had AIDS more than half a month ago. After flipping through my medical record, he said,"I'm glad you're back for a follow-up, Mr. Liu…Have you been feeling unwell recently?”
" I had cramps this morning, and…" I told him about my condition this morning.
"Oh…then come over here and I'll examine you.”The doctor asked me to lie on a small hospital bed. He used a small flashlight to shine on my eyes and mouth, and then listened to my heartbeat.
" Mr. Liu, I suggest you do a detailed body checkup again..." the doctor said seriously with a frown.
"Doctor, did my condition worsen again?”Seeing the doctor's serious expression, my heart was in my throat.
" Mr. Liu, please don't be nervous... I haven't received further confirmation, so I don't dare to make any rash claims... So please do a detailed body examination first..." The doctor explained patiently.
" Alright then…" I nodded.
" Okay, Nurse Ai, come in for a moment..." The doctor pressed a button on the phone and said. Then, a young nurse came in after knocking on the door twice.
" Um... Nurse Ai, please take this Mr. Liu to the laboratory department for a detailed physical examination. This is Mr. Liu's previous medical record..." The doctor handed my medical record to Nurse Ai and said.
"Yes, Mr. Liu, this way please..." Nurse Ai said. However, when she opened my medical record, her expression suddenly changed, but she hid it well. However, I noticed the change in her expression…But I knew that I couldn't blame her. If it were me, I would probably be worse than her ~~~ I'm afraid I would hide far away.
I kept comforting myself in my heart. Soon, I did an extremely detailed examination under her guidance. Blood test, urine test, DNA breakdown…There were more than ten items in total, and it took more than half an hour. The results of the examination needed time, so I came to the hospital's small flower courtyard. I slowly walked on a one-meter-wide gravel path and walked aimlessly. Suddenly, a small ball rolled to my feet…I picked up the ball and a tender voice sounded not far away from me."Brother, can you return it to me?"
Following the voice, I saw a little girl about five years old. She was not very tall, about less than a meter tall. She had beautiful big eyes that seemed to be able to speak. She had long hair, a small nose, and a red face... Her snow-white skin was as soft as mutton fat. At this moment, she looked like an angel bathed in the sun. Coupled with her white dress, she looked even more like an angel. However, when I saw her white dress, I couldn't feel happy. There was no other reason…because this pure white dress was worn by a patient in the hospital, which meant that she was sick!! No matter what, the people she met in the hospital were probably not good.
"Here…"
" Thank you, big brother..." The little girl thanked him politely after receiving the ball. I sat on a stone chair at the side and watched the little girl play happily. The girl's innocent smile infected me, but when I thought about how my illness might have worsened, I couldn't smile anymore...
"Big brother, can you play with me?”The little girl bounced over and invited me.
" No, you can play by yourself." I patted her head gently.
"Is big brother sick because he's unhappy?”She tilted her head and looked at me.
"How did you know?"
"I guessed it. Big Brother must be afraid of injections, right? Mommy said that this is not good ~~~~ Big brother's illness won't recover like this…"
"Naive little girl, do you think you'll get better with an injection? Big Brother is very sick…Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you…" I suddenly felt that it was a little silly to tell a little girl this. What could a little girl understand?
"Tian Tian understands…Tian Tian is also very sick. Tian Tian knows that big brother isn't just afraid of injections and bitter medicine. Big brother is afraid that he will never see his parents again, right?”Tian Tian had an 'I know everything' look on her face.
After hearing her words, I was stunned for a moment before saying,"Your name is Tian Tian?"
"Yes!"
"Then Tian Tian, big brother wants to ask you…how did you know that you were very sick?”I rubbed Tian Tian's head.
"It was Tian Tian who overheard the nurses. They said that the little angels would come and take Tian Tian away at any time…but Tian Tian doesn't want to go anywhere. She just wants to be with her parents and big brother…big brother, do you think she has to go with the little angels when she's sick? Can't we just stay?" Tian Tian's question made me unable to answer.
" No, Tian Tian will get better…" I could only say this.
"Big brother, don't lie to Tian Tian…Tian Tian knows that the little angel will definitely come, but Tian Tian isn't afraid…Tian Tian can look at Daddy, Mommy, and big brother in heaven. Although Tian Tian's health isn't good now, Tian Tian knows that as long as Tian Tian is happy every day, Daddy won't frown every day, Mommy won't cry secretly, and big brother won't be unhappy…"
"..." I was speechless again. I didn't expect such words to come from a little girl. Although she didn't know what life and death were, and didn't know that heaven was the death that everyone feared, she knew that her every smile affected her family. Her fearless words deeply shocked me. In comparison, my own fear of death made me feel ashamed.
"Tian Tian…don't worry…big brother promises you that you won't be lonely there. Maybe big brother is already waiting for you there…"
"Is that so? Then let's hook up…See you there…"
" Pinky…" I didn't deny that such a promise was ridiculous, but I still hooked my pinky with hers.
"Tian Tian…Tian Tian…where are you?”At this moment, a woman's anxious voice sounded.
"Oh ~~~ Here it is. Mommy is here. Big brother, I'm leaving. "Don't forget, this is our agreement." Tian Tian waved at me and skipped away.
"..." Looking at her innocent look, I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Rou Yu…Rou Yu…"
"Can you stop pestering me?”Just as Tian Tian left, a couple arrived. The man was dressed in a suit and looked very handsome, while the woman was beautiful…no, not just beautiful, she was simply stunning. However, I was already very immune to beautiful women. First of all, my younger sister was a super beautiful woman. Whenever I met a girl, I would unconsciously compare them. Second, I had seen many beautiful women in the game…Since ancient times, everyone had the heart to love beauty. Therefore, there were many people who optimized their appearance by 30%, resulting in a lot of handsome men and beautiful women in the game.
Although they always gave me a feeling of 'fake' and 'man-made,' I couldn't deny that they were really pleasing to the eye. The girl was very beautiful, but my gaze was focused on the man. I kept feeling that he looked familiar, but I just couldn't remember where I had seen him before…
"Rou Yu, don't you understand how I feel about you? "I love you ~~~~" The man grabbed the girl's hand and said.
" I've made it very clear that I won't like you…give up on that thought…" The girl shook off the man's hand with a disgusted expression. Looking at this 'couple' and 'show-off' I felt like I was enjoying the scenery here, so I stood up from the stone chair and prepared to leave…
"No, I know you love me. How can you avoid your heart?”The man grabbed the girl's arms and said excitedly.
"What's wrong with you? " To tell you the truth, I already have a boyfriend, and our relationship is very good. Just give up on this thought. Don't blame me for not warning you. He has a bad temper. If he finds out that you're pestering me like this, he'll kill you..." The girl struggled to break free from the man's hand and threatened.
" Haha, stop joking. Uncle and Auntie said that you don't have a boyfriend yet…" The man exposed the girl's lie mercilessly.
" You..." The girl was a little angry that her lie had been exposed, so she was a little speechless.
" Alright…If you can bring your boyfriend to me now, I promise I won't pester you anymore…" Seeing the girl's reaction, the man was even more confident that she was lying…
" Okay, you said it…" The girl started looking around, ready to 'find' one on the spot…but her eyes were focused on the only living person around her…me.
"Darling, why are you only here now? Do you know that I've been waiting for you for a long time?”The girl ran towards me in surprise and hugged my arm.
"…" I was dumbfounded. The girl suddenly hugged my arm. I could clearly feel the softness of her chest pressing against me. At the same time, the perfume on her body drifted into my nose, numbing my brain nerves, making me unable to use any strength to break free from her.
" Come, let me introduce you. This is my boyfriend... Darling, this is... Oh, forget it, he's going to disappear soon anyway... It's okay if I don't know his name..." The girl called Rou Yu pulled me to the man and said intimately.
" Rouyu, even if you want to reject me, you should find someone more presentable. Look at his outfit. I can tell that he's a garbage collector with just one look…" The man sized me up and said with disdain.
" You're not allowed to insult my friend…" Rou Yu shouted in displeasure.
"Did I insult him? "I'm just telling the truth..." The man sneered. It was at this moment that I remembered, I remembered who this man was…It was him, it was him, he was the one who brought me the greatest humiliation in my life half a month ago. I will never forget the scene of him pressing my face against the ground even though his bodyguards were there…I thought that I might not be able to live for long…I thought about how a young Tian Tian had to face the threat of death not long after he came to this world, but a scum like him could live a life that was better than others. I couldn't help but hate the injustice of the heavens…For a moment, countless grief and indignation surged into my heart. I rushed forward and punched his chin with a right hook. The man grunted and flew out heavily onto the grass three meters away. His chin was crooked from the blow…
"Nini…Nidah ~~~(Inarticulate: You, you…you hit me.))”The man sat on the ground and said while holding his crooked chin.
"Still not getting lost?" I growled.
"..." The man got up in a panic as if he had seen a ghost. He held his chin and ran away…Rou Yu was also stunned when she saw this sudden incident."What's wrong with this man? How could he hit someone so casually? "Although he deserves a beating, you can't just hit him like that…" Just as Rou Yu was about to teach this 'violent man' a lesson, she realized that she couldn't say anything at all. This was because she discovered a complicated emotion that she couldn't understand in his eyes. There was grief and indignation that was unwilling to be humiliated, and there was a helplessness that was resentful of fate. What was even stranger was that she had the same experience as her late grandfather…She could tell all of this because she was a top student in the psychology department of the Saint Nurturing Institute!!
After seeing the man leave, I also broke free from the girl called Rou Yu and turned to leave…by the time Rou Yu reacted, I had already walked far away. Although she really wanted to know my name, she couldn't let go of her girl's restraint, so she could only watch me leave.
It was an hour later when I returned to the doctor's office. For some reason, when I sat down opposite the doctor, I felt like a murderer waiting to be executed, waiting for the judge to sentence me to death..." Mr. Liu, before I tell you the results of this examination report, I hope you can answer a few questions..." the doctor said seriously.
"Ask away ~"
"May I ask if you have been to any other hospitals or private hospitals for treatment in the past half a month?”
"No... and I can't afford it with my financial ability.”I shook my head.
"Then have you taken any special medicine or food?”
"Not really…Doctor, has my condition worsened?”I asked anxiously.
" Mr. Liu, don't be anxious. Listen to me…We found that your AIDS test was negative after your examination report…"
"What do you mean? You…you mean I'm fine? Are you alright?" I couldn't believe my ears as I stood up from my chair and asked excitedly.
" Theoretically speaking, you can say that..." The doctor was no longer as serious and smiling as before.
"Really? You didn't test wrongly? I'm talking about the previous time…" After the excitement, I couldn't help but think about the time when I was told that I had AIDS. Was it a mistake by the hospital? After all, there were many cases of misdiagnosis in the city…
Hearing my question, the doctor's expression naturally didn't look any better, but he still patiently explained to me,"To ensure the accuracy of this test, we have conducted three reexaminations. The answers are all the same. At the same time, we have also tested the DNA of your previous virus sample and found that both samples came from the same person…"
" Oh, I'm sorry. I was just too excited and let my imagination run wild…" I said embarrassedly.
" It's okay. By the way, Mr. Liu, our hospital wants to set up a special research team for your special medical record. We hope to get your help..." The doctor smiled and said with understanding.
"Research team? Are you studying me?" I said, amused. However, the doctor's answer was very direct." Yes, we hope to find a way to curb this incurable disease from you…"
"I'm sorry, doctor. I'm afraid I can't help you..."
" Mr. Liu, don't reject it yet... For this research, our hospital will invest a large amount of research funds, which should not be less than ten million. We can also give you a very considerable commission..." the doctor said.
" Yes, I do need money, but I prefer a simple life. I'm not used to being stared at, and I don't like being studied like a lab rat…" I still refused.
"But Mister Liu, have you thought about it? Your contribution is very likely to change the history of humans suffering from Aiss. Thousands of people in the world who have suffered the same as you can be treated…"
" I'm sorry, I'm not as great and selfless as you think. I just want to live a peaceful life like an ordinary person…"
"If that's the case, then alright ~~~ But I still hope that you can seriously consider my suggestion…At the same time, I hope that you can come back on time for a follow-up.”In the end, the doctor was still unwilling to give up.
" I will. At the same time, I hope that my information won't be leaked…" I didn't forget to remind him before I left. After hearing my words, the doctor's expression became serious again." Mr. Liu, please believe in our professional ethics…"
