On the second underground floor of the mental hospital, the long corridor was dimly lit and very quiet, dilapidated, damp, and full of garbage.
I walked to the cell at the end of the corridor, knocked on the door first, and then whispered: "Aza...Aza, it's me, are you in there? I'm here to save you."
After waiting for half a minute, there was no movement.
I frowned and thought, "After all, it's been more than twenty days since the last incident. Was he tortured to extract a confession during this period, or did he pass out due to lack of food and clothing?"
I made a decision to open the door and take a look.
I inserted the key into the keyhole and turned it gently. Then I pushed open the thick iron door little by little and slowly looked into the room.
"Sorry! Sorry to bother you!"
I slammed the door and immediately relocked it.
Damn, that's scary...
In the room was an old man with a skinny face and sunken eye sockets, wearing white clothes. His eyes were dull and he was sitting motionless on the edge of the bed, muttering.
"It's not this room, it can only be this room..."
I called the door once, and then twice, and soon heard Azana's excited voice.
"Xiang Yunfeng! Is it you? Are you here to save me?!"
I was in a hurry, opened the door immediately, and saw Aza's current condition.
His clothes smelled sour, his face was haggard, sallow, unkempt, and his eyes were bloodshot.
Just like a hungry person seeing a bowl of meat, Aza looked very excited.
He hugged me and said excitedly: "I've been waiting! I knew you wouldn't abandon me!"
I pushed him away, gritted my teeth and said, "Stop talking nonsense, can you leave?"
"Yes, I'm fine!"
"Then follow me closely."
Arrived in the corridor.
"Come on! What else are you looking at?" Aza said anxiously.
I looked at the iron door, then at the key in my hand, and was about to leave. Suddenly, a low voice with a strange tone came from inside the door.
"I heard...Xiang Fengfeng...Xiang Fengfeng...Did you come to see me..."
Maybe it was the footsteps of Aza and I running, or maybe Aza was too excited and spoke too loudly, but he was heard anyway.
Aza looked worried and urged me: "Let's go! Why are you so stunned!"
I stared at the iron door, took a deep breath, and told myself not to be afraid.
The person behind the door is my nightmare.
There was a voice in my heart telling me: "Xiang Yunfeng, this may be your last chance in this life. If you can't untie this knot, you will live in a nightmare for the rest of your life. Be brave and don't be afraid of him. He will also You’re just a human being, there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Finally, I took a deep breath, took two steps closer, and stood in front of the iron gate.
"Thank you Qirong, I am Xiang Yunfeng! Did you hear me?"
A bang on the door!
"Xiang Fengfeng! Haha! I knew it must be you! Your footsteps are the same as anyone else's!"
He suddenly sang: "Fake it clean! Pee on the pot! Cover the dustpan and knead the dough nest! Make a Xiang Fengfeng! With eyebrows, eyes and dimples! Xiang Fengfeng! Open the door quickly! Let me out!"
After not seeing each other for two and a half years, when I heard these nonsense words, I knew that his madness had become more serious, perhaps to the point of being incurable, so I emboldened myself and shouted through the door: "You are the fucking one." Mianwowo! Xie Qirong, you are a brain retard! You are a retard! You are a fool! I am not afraid of you!"
When I shouted these words in front of my face, at that moment, I felt so happy... so happy... better than doing anything else! It seemed that for a long time, a heavy stone fell to the ground in my heart.
So I shouted again: "Did you hear that? Xie Qirong! You are stupid!"
On the other side of the door, a low voice said:
"Xiang Fengfeng...you dare to scold me..."
I chuckled and said, "Yes, I just scolded you. What's wrong? I'm just standing here. You dare to come out and beat me."
"You are a mentally retarded, inhuman lunatic! You deserve to be locked up here! I am leaving now, so you will die here alone!"
I waved at the door and smiled: "Goodbye!"
"ah!"
"ah!"
"Xiang Fengfeng...I'm going to kill you!"
Xie Qirong suddenly screamed like crazy and started banging on the door crazily!
This scene scared me so much that I took two steps back.
Seeing this, I chuckled and said, "Hey, hey! You still want to kill me? I'm so scared, forget it, I don't have the time, so I won't tell you anymore."
As soon as I finished speaking, I turned around and wanted to leave.
But what happened next made both Aza and I open our mouths at the same time.
Xie Qirong was no longer shouting or talking. All that could be heard was the continuous banging of the door.
A large amount of dust and rust fell from the door beam.
On the iron door that was several inches thick, people's "palm prints" appeared one after another, and they were one after another, more and more! More and more dense!
My eyes were horrified and I stepped back step by step.
Then all I heard was "a loud bang!"
The heavy iron door fell down with a crash, hitting the ground hard and sending up dust all over the place.
The lighting in the basement was already dim, but amid the scattered dust, a tall and slender figure could be seen looming at the door.
When I saw the bamboo pole-like figure, my legs were shaking and I was a little unsteady.
After a few seconds, the dust dispersed, and Xie Qirong, whom I had not seen for more than two years, appeared in front of me again.
At this time, I couldn't react at all.
Why is he like this now?
Xie Qirong was wearing a blue and white hospital gown, and now he has a full head of black hair!
Although one sleeve is empty, he seems to be more energetic than before. Even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and the wrinkles on his forehead are much less!
If I say this person is an old man several decades older! No one will believe me! But he actually appeared in front of me!
Two steps closer to me.
Xie Qirong put one hand in the pocket of the hospital gown and whistled in his mouth. He looked at me sideways and laughed in a long voice: "Xiang Fengfeng, I'm out... What did you scold me just now? Are you scolding me?" For once, let me listen.”
Not running, not walking, not daring to move.
At this moment, cold sweat broke out on my forehead, my face was as white as paper, and the fear in my heart reached the extreme!
I turned my head mechanically and glanced.
Aza, who was beside me just now, disappeared without a trace at some point.
I started running immediately!
Run forward with all your might!
A series of terrifying laughter came from behind.
When I looked up, Xie Qirong was already standing in front of me.
He is half a head taller than me! This block. It blocked all the light! The world around me fell into darkness.
He smiled and put one hand on my head.
"Hehe...Xiang Fengfeng, I haven't seen you for two years. You seem to have grown a little taller."
"Oh shit!"
"Fight!"
I yelled, stepped back, clenched my fists instantly, and stood still on the spot.
"Yo?"
Xie Qirong's hand was still stretched out in the air, and he smiled and said: "Retreat in an instant, catch cicadas in eight steps? Xiang Fengfeng, where did you learn this?"
"Want to fight me?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Xie Qirong raised his head and laughed maniacally. He pointed at me and said, "Xiang Fengfeng, in my eyes, this eight-step cicada-catching thing is something that only children can play. Do you want to use this kind of thing to resist me? Do you know that I What state are you in now?"
I didn't dare to speak, I just stood there and gasped.
Xie Qirong spread out one hand and said with a smile: "I am already invincible."
With excitement on his face, he said to me: "Refining energy into energy, refining energy into spirit, and refining spirit into void. Now I have broken through the last level. Even if I am standing here as a horse lamp, his There is only one outcome, and that is to be beaten to death by me..."
At this time, a loud voice suddenly came from behind.
"Who is this! Such an arrogant tone!"
I turned around and saw He Weiwu, shirtless and with long flowing hair, walking over, with Aza and Qin Huiwen following closely behind him.
He Weiwu's indifferent eyes revealed an aura of disdain for everything.
Xie Qirong tilted his head and said with a smile, "Who are you?"
He Weiwu stopped one meter in front of him and replied coldly: "Ku Fist, He Weiwu."
"Bitter Fist?"
Xie Qirong's expression seemed to be startled. He stared wide-eyed and said, "I don't know him."
"Haha... Xie, of course you won't know me, because we are not from the same era."
He Weiwu stared at Xie Qirong and said slowly: "Only when you have to endure hardships can you become a better person. I have suffered all the hardships in this world. The bitter fist is a boxing type that only belongs to me. This punch once killed a janitor. I want to be a better person." Don’t you want to have a fight?”
Xie Qirong laughed loudly: "Have you ever killed a janitor with one punch? That's awesome! Okay! Come on!"
I know in my heart that these are top players from two eras.
He Weiwu's face was expressionless. He stepped forward with his left foot, raised his hands flat, and tensed his whole body.
Then I saw.
Under the light.
On He Weiwu's entire back, the back muscles were bulging and squeezing! Eventually a "crying face" slowly formed.
