Zhang Taifeng called out at this time: "God! What's going on? Mr. Wei, what's going on?" How can I explain it to him?I said impatiently: "What's going on! A drug addict died, and it's not like you didn't see it!" Zhang Taifeng smiled wryly, I didn't give up, I lifted the bed sheet and looked at it for a while, hoping that she would come back to life, but there was no sign of life. Zhang Taifeng swallowed a mouthful of saliva and lowered his voice: "I will guard her." At this time, it was my turn to smile wryly: "Why are you here?"

Zhang Taifeng was amazing, he immediately replied: "Wait until that... person... who was talking to you just now... come back!" I patted him on the shoulder to express my approval, and at the same time said: "I don't have much hope—just wait for 24 hours." He nodded: "Within the twenty-four hours, if there is any movement, I will contact you immediately. If there is no change, then I will not bother you." It's not easy for him to suppress his curiosity like this.So I promised him: "Things are messy now, and I can't tell what's going on. When the truth comes out, I'll tell you from beginning to end."

Zhang Taifeng was so happy that he even danced and said repeatedly: "That's great! That's great!" I smiled wryly: "Don't be happy, many things have a beginning and no end, and there will never be a day when the truth will be revealed." He is very optimistic: "It doesn't matter, even if you only know a beginning, it's good." I glanced at the female drug addict again, my thoughts were very disordered, and I walked out of the ward. The hospital is naturally very familiar with handling corpses.Zhang Taifeng was talking with the nurse, and I didn't pay attention to what they said.

Zhang Taifeng suddenly caught up and said very courteously: "Mr. Wei, I will take you back." I shook my head: "You'd better stay on guard, if that... person comes back, it would be useless if you're not here." After leaving the hospital and walking along the road for a while, I sat down under a big tree, took a deep breath, and thought about what happened just now from beginning to end. At this time, I was almost sure that I had identified the wrong person (it should be said that I had identified the wrong soul). It was not Mrs. Wan and Ms. He Yanrong who had used the body of a female drug addict to talk to me just now.

The question is: If that wasn't He Yanrong, who would it be? What is certain is: it must be an acquaintance, otherwise he would not find me. And according to him, he had seen me recently—me and some people, at sea, and one of them was a "tall girl." I was indeed at sea recently, with Bai Su, Wen Baoyu, Lan Si, and Hong Ling, and Hong Ling was most likely the tall girl. But that time, apart from Jin Wei, he didn't see anyone else.And the soul raised many accusations against the tall girl, as if it had something to do with his body, and said that the tall girl "didn't know the severity", as if she had done something that shouldn't be done.

Thinking of this, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I couldn't help but let out an exclamation. I figured it out!I thought of who was talking to me with the body of a female drug addict just now! I also thought of a detail - when I saw the horrible situation of a female drug addict before the hospital bed, I called out the word "ten thousand". At that time, the other party responded very well, saying that I recognized him and he recognized me. Later, when I called "Mrs. Wan", the reaction I got was incomprehensible. This proves that the person is related to "Wan", but definitely not Mrs. Wan He Yanrong.

Then who else could it be, of course it could only be Wan Liangsheng!It was Wan Liangsheng who turned into a conch many years ago! Once I remembered that the soul I was talking to just now was Wan Liangsheng, everything fell into sync. Wan Liangsheng repeatedly mentioned his body—his body was found in that cylinder by Hong Ling, and he brought it ashore, checked it, and sent it back. Such a process, of course, undoubtedly caused disturbance to his body, but it has been sent back to the original place, so what's the problem? Moreover, during the whole process, Wan Liangsheng's soul and his body were obviously not combined. He might have been a happy conch in the depths of the ocean at that time. What kind of consequences would our actions cause him? What about losses?

I have no answer to this question. But I know that the answer to this question must be yes, that our actions have caused him loss, and the loss may be very serious.This can be seen from the urgency and anger of his soul. Although our actions are unintentional mistakes, since we have caused losses to others, we should try our best to make up for them.But I don't know where I went wrong, let alone how to make up for it. It's a pity that the female drug addict was too weak, and I wasted a lot of time by identifying the wrong person, so that Wan Liangsheng didn't say anything important, and there was no human body to use.

If the human body is not used and there is no misunderstanding, the soul of Wan Liangsheng and I can communicate completely. Using a human body, I have no psychic ability. It is as if the entire universe is separated between human beings and souls, and there is no communication at all. Thinking of this, the whole thing has a little clue.I was thinking, I can't take the initiative to find Wan Liangsheng's soul, but he should have a way to take the initiative to find me. He can use a direct method to make me communicate with him-I have had the experience of communicating with souls in this way.

He can also use indirect methods to communicate with me by using other people's bodies, just like he used the body of the female drug addict just now, which is more convenient and easier. What I don't understand is that since his soul can come and go freely, can freely leave the conch shell and enter the human body, why didn't he choose a better body instead of the female drug addict?As long as he chooses a body that can talk to me for three minutes, he can solve any problem, and I don't need to make all kinds of assumptions now. (In this matter, I have repeatedly used the term "soul", which can only be regarded as a borrowing, but it is not very appropriate.

Generally speaking, after a person dies, the soul separates from the body and moves on its own.The exception is that some masters who have various "practice" can have the ability to separate the soul and body. The case of Wan Liangsheng is even more special. He met a certain kind of aliens, which allowed his soul to leave his body and enter the bodies of other creatures, while his original body was still there, so his soul and The general understanding of the word soul should be different. Because of the difference, when talking about "the soul of Wan Liangsheng", we just borrowed the word "soul". The precise term should be "thought group" or "brain wave group" and so on. The concept of modern people is very strange. When the soul is mentioned, people will have a strange and resistant idea, thinking that it is "unscientific", "superstitious" and so on. Some people deny the existence of the soul at all because of this. But no one would deny that everyone has thoughts, and everyone has a set of thoughts in their heads. The thought that exists in the mind of each person is the soul of that person. The mind group and the soul are two in one, one in two, the same thing. However, many people are acceptable to the "mind group", but resist the "soul".This concept is extremely narrow and naive. So here I specifically borrow the word soul to explain the existence of this childish phenomenon. ) But I said that I was under the big tree at that time. I thought for a while, looked up at the people passing in front of me, and hoped that one of them would come over and say to me, "I am Wan Liangsheng." Of course I didn't wait for such a person to appear.I tried to concentrate again, hoping to get in touch with Wan Liangsheng, to feel his presence, to communicate with him, so as to understand what happened. But after a while, nothing happened.Of course I know that it is not easy to actively communicate with the soul, so I am not disappointed. I believe that Wan Liangsheng must be more anxious to communicate with me than I am, because the matter is related to his body, and it seems to be very urgent. It seemed that I had to wait until he came to me. When I went home, I saw Hong Ling at the door as if a gust of wind had blown her out. I stretched out my hand and didn't grab her, so I quickly called out, "Don't go, I have something to ask you!" Hong Ling stood still immediately, she was already twenty meters away. I waved to her, and she came over with a smile on her face. Probably because of my serious expression, she also became nervous. I was thinking about what to say to her, and after thinking for a while, I said, "Wan Liangsheng came to see me just now." Hong Ling was inexplicably surprised: "Wan Liangsheng? Hasn't he already turned into a conch?" I said: "His situation seems to be very special. That kind of aliens have great supernatural powers, which can make him change between conch shells and humans, and do whatever he wants. But now the situation has changed, and it is because of you!" Hong Ling was even more surprised: "How could it be related to me?" I walked into the room with her and told her in detail what happened when Zhang Taifeng came to me and when I got to the hospital.My conclusion is: "After Wan Liangsheng's body left the seabed cave, some changes may have taken place, which is extremely unfavorable to him, so he came to me!" Hong Ling frowned: "I didn't do anything - how did I take it out, or how did I put it back." I said: "I can't even imagine what went wrong, but he accused you of ignorance of the seriousness, and seeing his situation, he was very anxious. For him, the matter must be extremely serious!" Hong Ling spread her hands: "Then what can I do?" I feel that Hong Ling's attitude is not quite right, at least a little irresponsible. I was thinking about what to say about her, but Bai Su had already walked down the stairs and said, "I'm not sure if you have a solution, but there are many things you It can and should be done. Judging from Wan Liangsheng's anxious situation, it should be done immediately." Bai Su didn't blame Hong Ling, but Hong Ling immediately felt that her attitude just now was wrong, so she hurriedly said, "What should I do?" Bai Su didn't answer right away, I was also thinking about what Hong Ling should do, or what should we do? Bai Su obviously heard what I told Hong Ling upstairs just now, and I really need to hear her opinion. After a while, Bai Su said: "It is certain that we moved the cylinder, which must have caused some degree of damage to Wan Liangsheng's body. This kind of damage may be extremely serious to Wan Liangsheng." Hong Ling smiled bitterly: "It's still my idea to send it back to its original place. Wouldn't it be worse if the cylinder was cut open according to Xiao Bao's wishes?" I also smiled wryly: "If I hadn't mistook him for Mrs. Wan when I came up, he would still have a chance to explain things clearly." Bai Su's eyebrows were knotted, she didn't make a sound, she seemed to be thinking. I expressed my thoughts: "Except for waiting for Wan Liangsheng to borrow someone's body to contact us, we are the only ones who take the initiative to contact him." Bai Su shook his head: "According to my guess, it must be very difficult for Wan Liangsheng to borrow someone else's body, otherwise he wouldn't have chosen to borrow the body of that female drug addict." I wanted to say something, Bai Su made a gesture, motioning me not to speak.Then she said: "If you want to take the initiative to contact him, you must have psychic skills. Both you and I can only succeed by chance, and there is no emergency." I spread my hands, helpless.Bai Su said: "During your conversation with him just now, he mentioned a very strange phenomenon, he said he saw you at sea with some people, including Hong Ling, it should be the time we were at sea recently. Under what circumstances do you think Wan Liangsheng saw us?" I was taken aback for a moment, before Bai Su asked this question, I hadn't thought of this question.But now that Bai Su raised this question, I thought about it for a while, but I didn't know how to answer it. Indeed, under what circumstances did Wan Liangsheng see us? If it is his soul, whether the soul can "see" is debatable.The soul should only "feel", not "see", because theoretically, the soul has no visual organs. Of course, he will not see us in the "human" situation, because his body was in that cylinder at that time. The remaining possibility is that when he saw us, it was a conch. This situation is even more bizarre—under what circumstances did a conch see us on the yacht?In the sea, or on the sea? Of course the conch has eyes, but what is the scene seen through the eyes of the conch? (There is a class of biologists who like to simulate the scenes seen by the eyes of other creatures, such as the scenes seen by the compound eyes of insects. This is a very funny behavior - the sight seen by other creatures' eyes can only be seen by other creatures themselves, and humans cannot know.Unless this person has turned into another creature, like Wan Liangsheng turned into a conch, of course he knows what the conch sees. The simulations made by biologists are nothing more than wishful imaginations of human beings, and can never be facts. Judging from this example, it can be seen that human science may have problems in the direction of development and research. It is inconceivable that such absurd so-called science can exist for a long time. Of course, it is still possible for humans to know what the scene seen by other creatures is like.There are two methods, one is to turn everything seen into a picture directly through the visual system of other creatures.The second is to connect the visual system of human beings with the visual systems of other creatures, so that people can directly see the scene through the visual systems of other creatures.What kind of science is it to talk about simulations like it is now? ) I did think about these questions at the time, but of course I didn't think about it any further.It's just that I always think that human science is still at a very low level, so I have such an association when I have no clue. Bai Su seemed to have thought of something, she said: "A conch can see us, it's really hard to imagine." I nodded: "Yeah, it can't leave the sea water. If we look through the sea water, how can we see us clearly?" Hong Ling participated in the discussion, and also made a surprising statement: "Maybe Conch has this ability." Bai Su and I shook our heads together, and I said, "I can be sure that there was no one else around us at that time." Bai Su said: "The absence of other people does not mean that there are no other creatures." Hong Ling and I raised our eyebrows together, for a moment we didn't understand what Bai Su meant by that.Bai Su immediately explained: "For example, there are seagulls flying in the sky, and fish jumping in the sea. These are very common situations, and we will not pay attention to them." I took a breath: "You mean, Wan Liangsheng is not necessarily a conch, he could be a bird, or a fish?" Bai Su hesitated: "I'm not sure. But since that kind of aliens are so powerful that they can make Wan Liangsheng change back and forth between humans and conch shells, they can make Wan Liangsheng's thoughts come and go freely. In this way Under the circumstances, theoretically speaking, it should be possible for Wan Liangsheng's thought group to enter any creature." I took another breath——Bai Su's hypothesis is so unconscionable and unimaginable to the extreme, it's hard to accept it all at once. The first thing I thought of was: if this situation existed, wouldn't Wan Liangsheng be able to turn into any creature he wanted? Then it occurred to me vaguely that this scenario was not entirely impossible. And Hong Ling's ability to accept bold ideas is obviously much higher than mine. Before I had a very clear concept, she had already clapped her hands and shouted: "It's wonderful, it's extremely interesting! Monkey King can have seventy-two changes. Liangsheng, don’t you know how many kinds there are?” As soon as I heard her say that, I suddenly became enlightened, and I completely understood what Bai Su's idea was, and it was completely acceptable, because this kind of situation "has happened in ancient times", which is a common imagination of ancient people, not Bai Su was the first to create it, but I still felt incredible when I first heard it. From this, I can see that my imagination is not enough, at least not as good as Bai Su and Hong Ling. Hong Ling immediately thought of Sun Wukong's "seventy-two changes". In fact, in the imagination or records of the ancients, it is very common to be able to transform into other creatures or other people--ordinary gods, or Fairies have this ability. But no one has ever conceived of this capacity for change as the result of the free movement of thought groups. But Bai Su's idea, combined with the transformation ability of gods and goblins, is completely acceptable.The thinking group moves freely, if it enters a conch, it becomes a conch; if it enters a female drug addict, it becomes a female drug addict; if it enters a fish, it naturally becomes a fish.Looking at the seventy-two changes of Sun Wukong from this perspective, it is nothing more than the fact that Sun Wukong's thought group has entered seventy-two different creatures under the condition of being able to move freely. Since that kind of aliens gave Wan Liangsheng the ability to change between humans and conchs, of course it can be deduced from this that he also has the ability to transform into other creatures. Interesting, when he saw us at sea, what creature was he? It just occurred to me that Hong Ling had already raised this issue.Bai Su said: "No matter what kind of creature he was at the time, he saw us anyway, so he thought that the problem with his human body was related to us, so he wanted to become someone else and use someone else's identity to negotiate with us. I believe he Although it is possible to change back and forth between the conch and itself, and perhaps it is easy to transform into other creatures, it must be very difficult to transform into other people, so we can't wait for him to become another person, but You have to take the initiative to find him—not looking for his thought group, but looking for the creature he turned into, even if it is a conch or a fish, it is easier to communicate with the illusory thought group.” When Bai Su said this, it is already clear what action we should take. Hong Ling immediately said: "I'll go now, go to the sea surface near the cave, I can also dive, I will try to find him, find out what kind of trouble we have caused him, and how to remedy it." I said, "I'll go with you." Bai Su smiled and said, "Why don't our whole family go out together, at least to show our sincerity to Wan Liangsheng, saying that we will do our best to make up for the trouble we caused." Of course I am very happy - Bai Su and I have dealt with many difficult and miscellaneous diseases together, each of which is a very pleasant memory, now with Hong Ling, it will definitely be much more interesting. We did what we said, contacted the yacht immediately, and sailed straight to the small island. When we left the pier, it was already dark, and the boat hadn’t been sailing for a long time. Looking back, the bright lights of the city seemed to be a huge ball of light floating on the sea, which was extremely spectacular.Looking forward, the surface of the sea is pitch black, only the sea water occasionally reflects a little bit of starlight, like many goblins dancing, weird and unpredictable. The performance of the yacht is very good, with automatic navigation equipment, although it is dark, it does not hinder navigation. We were in the cockpit, and Bai Su asked me in detail about the conversation with Wan Liangsheng in the hospital. After I said it again, I sighed: "At that time, I never thought that the agreement with Mrs. Wan would happen again by such a coincidence. It became a female drug addict. At that time, I just thought that Mrs. Wan wanted to know my future identity, and I was afraid that I could do whatever she wanted, and I never thought that I would become a female drug addict!" Bai Su looked at the stars in the sky and sighed: "The future identity of a person may appear in any form, and female drug addicts are just one of them." After she finished speaking, she paused, and then said: "It's natural for people to plan for their own future, but it should be limited to this life. It's too greedy to extend future plans to the next life!" I laughed and said, "It's not just greed, it's just nonsense. The possibility of realization is just like what you said: equal to zero!" Hong Ling participated in the comments: "The situation of Wan Liangsheng is better-his body is sealed in that cylinder, it seems that he will not age, and he can turn into other creatures at will, and he can even turn into other people. In this case , wouldn't it be the same as becoming a fairy?" If the situation is really as we imagined, then Wan Liangsheng is indeed tantamount to becoming a fairy. Is there really such a good thing in the world? Theoretically speaking, if that kind of extraterrestrials have mastered the ability of the human thought group to move freely without the body, then such a thing may happen. When I said what I thought, Hong Ling was very envious: "The ability of that kind of alien is higher than that of any alien. Mom's mother is also a fairy, but she can't change back and forth." Bai Su couldn't help but laugh: "If your grandma turns into a fish, what would you be happy about?" Hong Ling thought for a while, but couldn't think of an answer, so she just smirked. I said: "We went to that small island for the purpose of contacting Wan Liangsheng, but we don't know what form Wan Liangsheng exists at all. Do we ask every fish and every conch we see if it is Wan Liangsheng?" !" Hong Ling also shook her head: "Even if we ask about a fish or a conch, it happens to be Wan Liangsheng, and I don't know if the auditory organs of fish or conch can accept human language. Even if he understands, how will he respond to us?" Our father and daughter kept asking questions, Bai Su frowned, and remained silent for a while, and when we stopped, she sighed: "I don't know what will happen, so I have to go to any step Which step." In terms of thinking, Hong Ling has a lot of Wen Baoyu's style, and she has made many unthinkable assumptions, so there is no need to list them one by one. Bai Su said to Hong Ling only when Hong Ling's hypothesis came to an end: "There is one very important thing, which is the key to the whole thing, and you need to explain it in detail." Hong Ling's eyes widened, and Bai Su said: "When you found and took out the cylinder in that cave, did you find any other devices? Did you bump into or destroy anything by accident?" Hong Ling still stared wide-eyed, unable to answer this question. Bai Su and I looked at each other with wry smiles - Hong Ling's careless style was fully revealed in this matter, she obviously didn't pay attention to the environment at that time. Bai Su said: "Then what happened?" Hong Ling's answer was even better: "Go in, see the cylinder, bring it out, that's it." Bai Su let out a sigh of relief: "I know what we should do in the first step." I responded, "We should go to that cave—even if nothing else is found, Wan Liangsheng is most likely next to his body." Hong Ling was elated about everything, she immediately said: "I will lead the way, I remember where the cave is." Bai Su said: "Excellent, let's prepare the diving equipment first." There is diving equipment on the yacht, which is surprisingly complete and can be used by the three of us in the sea for at least three days. I speeded up the speed. In the dark, the sea was very quiet, only occasionally the lights of some ships were shining in the distance. When we arrived at the small island, the three of us put on our diving equipment together. Hong Ling cheered and jumped into the sea first.
