"Let's go home." Wang Mengkai quickly finished the meal in his hand.
"Go home? Did the doctor say we can be discharged from the hospital?" the woman asked with a puzzled look on her face, and at the same time she looked at her husband.
The man finally stopped being silent and told the truth. The sky-high price of 1.7 million was not something a small family like theirs could afford.
After hearing their decisions, the woman felt as if she had been struck by a huge thunder. Wang Mengkai had decided to give up treatment, and her husband also agreed to this stupid decision.
The woman clutched her chest, with two strings of tears already hanging on her face. She said solemnly: "You are my son! My darling! Even if I sell the iron, I am willing to let you live..."
"Mom, I know how you feel, and I also know how Dad feels... But you can't let your brother suffer the rest just because of me. He still has to go to school and get married. Are you willing to favor me for the rest of his life? "?" Wang Mengkai looked at his sickly skin and smiled bitterly.
He is only 23 years old, and it is very sad that he has already found an ending for himself in this great age. Death is the last thing he can choose!
"Let's go home!" The middle-aged man turned his head, gently took off the frame of his glasses, and then walked out of the room.
…
Deer in the woods, fish in the water, birds in the sky. Countless creatures inhabit this emerald green forest.
Intertwined tree roots emerged from the cracked ground, growing wildly, spiraling, and finally twisting into a huge tree trunk.
The black shadow covers half of the lake. If you look carefully through the leaves, you will find a little firelight, and a brown house blends into the ancient tree.
A person walked towards him. He was handsome and wearing a pair of blue glasses. He came under the tree and touched the front with one hand. A blue halo appeared at the root of the tree and he disappeared.
When the scene turned, Wang Mengkai was sitting at the table playing with insects. He arranged a delicate and small glass cover, which was full of greenery. The vague insects had already laid traps, waiting for their prey to come to the door. The entire cover was like a mini ecological circle. .
Wang Mengkai likes to watch insects hunting, and around him are walls made of glass tanks, in which bugs of all types live. Feeding them every day is troublesome, but also very interesting.
At this time, the man under the tree had appeared in the tree house. He pushed open the glass door and saw Wang Mengkai shouting: "Brother, I'm back."
Wang Mengkai was slightly startled and turned to look at his younger brother. His name is Wang Chenfeng. He is 20 this year. I heard that he is very popular with girls in college. Now he has grown much taller and his appearance has changed a little.
His thoughts suddenly unfolded. Wang Mengkai reached out and touched Xi'er. The scene around him instantly changed. It turned out that the tree house and forest just now were virtual. This was all the work of Guixu.
Some people only need to pay a small price to get a very large free space, where they can of course build whatever they want.
Wang Chenfeng naturally has the authority to enter here, but Wang Mengkai was so focused that he didn't notice his brother entering the space.
After taking off the VR glasses, Wang Chenfeng was standing in front of Wang Mengkai. It seemed that he knew his situation.
"Brother, let's get treatment as soon as possible, even if we borrow money and sell the house..." Wang Chenfeng spoke urgently, but was interrupted by Wang Mengkai, who stared at his 'strange' brother.
The lymphoma continues to become serious, and relatively speaking, Wang Mengkai's physical condition is gradually declining. This was only one month after he was discharged from the hospital. Without the maintenance of drugs, the tumor would only continue to expand. If the tumor metastasized, I am afraid Wang Mengkai would not live long.
Wang Chenfeng is a college student. Although he doesn't know anything about medicine, he can know the seriousness of the disease as long as he looks up the information.
"Do you still remember when you were a child?" Wang Mengkai said with a smile, and the words brought back his memories.
On a summer night when he was a child, Wang Mengkai held his younger brother's hand, and the two young people secretly climbed onto the balcony to look at the stars in the sky while the cool breeze blew by.
"Brother, what do you want to do when you grow up?" Wang Mengkai took out the fruit from the refrigerator, wiped the water droplets on it with the corner of his clothes, and handed it to him who was only 7 years old.
Wang Chenfeng took the fruit with both hands and took a bite. He stood on tiptoes and pointed at the starry sky: "I want to take a spaceship to play on the moon..."
Wang Mengkai shook his head and smiled: "Okay, when I get rich in the future, I can take you to Mars."
That night was as clear as last night. Wang Mengkai looked at the serious Wang Chenfeng and said with a smile: "Don't you want to play on the moon in the future? The house is sold, and I have no money to earn it back."
"No, I'm not going. I just want you to get better! Let's cure the disease, which is better than anything else..." Wang Chenfeng shook his head, his eyes gradually turning red.
Wang Mengkai stood up and stretched. Pain came over him. His expression remained unchanged, he put down the VR in his hand and quietly walked around Wang Chenfeng. When he walked to the door, he turned sideways and smiled: "Let's go to eat. Do you still want me to carry you?"
…
Half a year passed in the blink of an eye. During these six months, Wang Mengkai's condition worsened, his health became worse and worse, and he could hardly sleep all night.
As soon as it was time to fall asleep, the pressure in his chest would make him breathless, and he would open his eyes with a long cough.
Looking at the time, it was 3:30 in the morning. This is the time when people are most sleepy. He slowly got out of bed, opened the door, looked at his sleeping parents and younger brother, and smiled happily.
I really want to be able to spend the rest of my life with them in peace. He talks about taste. This idea is extremely luxurious for him.
Wang Mengkai knew that his current condition was very bad and death could come to him at any time. He poured a warm glass of water in the living room and took a few sips but found it difficult to swallow.
Pain covered Wang Mengkai's sleepiness. He returned to the bedroom and came to the window. At a glance, the VR immersive interactive base is still shining with blue light. This is one of the tools that can be used to move in place and complete other body movements after wearing VR glasses, and it is also the cheapest.
If you are always sitting down, you can play on a chair. Of course, if you want to sit and run in VR, that is not impossible, but many people are not used to it.
Stroking the straps, they were connected to the ceiling and were very strong. He slowly buckled them on his body, looked at the fully charged VR glasses, thought about it, and put them on again.
After entering Guixu and browsing countless mountains and rivers, in a deserted bamboo forest, Wang Mengkai sat on a stone table and clicked on his friends list. Most of the avatars are gray, and they are not online. How many people can stay up in the middle of the night, and it is not holiday time.
Wang Mengkai looked at his former friends and classmates. He sent a photo and a few words of himself to those who were not online. Everyone was more or less a part of his life, and he was also a part of his friends.
Time cannot separate the past friendship between them, but the God of Death often doesn't care about this. Even if you are powerful and wealthy, no one can stop you when you are dying.
Wang Mengkai replied one by one. He knew his physical condition, but he had never been afraid. When his finger touched an avatar, he stopped.
The avatar is on, and the name is Zhang Lei. Wang Mengkai’s finger is stuck in the air, and he doesn’t know whether to click on it or not.
After careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, the corners of his mouth curled up, and Wang Mengkai shook his head with a smile.
Yes, why bother? I am almost dead. Does she have the ability to go to the underworld to find me?
Thinking of this, he started teleporting without hesitation and waited for the other party's consent. After a while, Wang Mengkai was teleported to a huge snow mountain, where the wind was freezing. Looking at the white snow, he did not feel a trace of coldness. This was the disadvantage of not having a brain-computer interface installed, and he could not truly feel everything in Guixu. .
Suddenly, a humanoid mecha wearing bright orange flew past his head. Following a layer of arc-shaped snow waves, it suddenly stopped and splashed white snow all over Wang Mengkai who was standing there.
"Hahaha! Lao Wang, what do you want to do if you don't sleep in the middle of the night?!" As the helmet slowly opened with a mechanical movement, revealing a blue-pink head, the man laughed.
But Wang Mengkai remained unmoved. He just wiped the snow off his face and slowly said, "Can you use your own image? What's the use of such an ugly character?"
"What do you know? This was one of the films that won the Nebula Award last year. I spent a lot of money to get this out-of-print protagonist. Others are envious of me, like you." Zhang Lei looked at Wang Mengkai speechlessly.
Zhang Lei waved her hand, and when she saw Wang Mengkai's authentic expression, she knew that he had something important to tell her: "Okay, okay, it's up to you."
After that, Zhang Lei changed into her own appearance, and the original mecha style was suddenly replaced by tall women.
Yes, Zhang Lei is a girl. She was Wang Mengkai's classmate from junior high school to high school. It has not changed for six years. The relationship between the two was quite good before.
"Huh, it's been 5 years since we last met. Let me guess, what did you say first?" Zhang Lei stopped Wang Mengkai who was about to speak with her jade finger, laughing like a bell, "Old Wang, are you married? Want to have a wedding banquet with me?"
Wang Mengkai chuckled and shook his head, obviously he didn't guess correctly: "I haven't been in love in these years, why would I want to get married..."
"Damn it, no way, Lao Wang, you haven't talked about it yet?" Zhang Lei then circled around Wang Mengkai, marveling, and while looking at the old classmate she hadn't seen for many years, she continued: "Don't you still Do you like Xiao Xu?"
"Yes, I can't forget it in my heart." Wang Mengkai sighed softly.
"Then why don't you confess your feelings quickly? Do you know how many men chased her when she went to college? It's a pity that she didn't agree... I saw her last month and she mentioned you to me." Speaking of this, Zhang Lei After taking a deep look at Wang Mengkai, the latter was slightly startled.
My mind suddenly went back to my school days a few years ago.
