Chapter 5 Chapter 4 The only plausible hypothesis

Feller was even more excited: "Dr. Feige is my great-uncle. What a coincidence, our family has also had contact with aliens long ago." I laughed: "What kind of contact is this?" Feller was very frustrated again: "It's a pity that he, like me, didn't grasp the opportunity to study hard, and I, alas, spent more than a year with him every day, alas." He sighed for a while, and then said: "Zheng Tianlu He is a famous rich man, there are many legends about him, some of them have been exaggerated into myths, and it is said that he has the ability to predict, which is naturally one of the special abilities of aliens."

I looked serious: "This is an extremely secret, don't tell anyone casually." Fei Le promised: "No, no." He thought for a moment, and then said: "Now that we know the background of Zheng Baoyun's madness, his recent behavior is not too difficult to explain." I looked at him, and he paused: "He is crazy because of his identity, deep down, he has always been afraid of being known the secret of his life experience, this fear has become an unbreakable subconscious in his mind. " I knew what he wanted to say, I frowned, and kept silent. Sure enough, he continued: "The subconscious has become superficial in a certain situation. That doesn't mean that he is cured, but that there is a certain change. He feels that he is in danger." environment, ask people for help, act mysteriously..."

Without waiting for him to pay attention, I said, "Is that a madman's game?" Ferrer nodded: "You can say that." I sighed: "It is precisely because of my speculation that something happened. The fact is that he really disappeared. On this big rock, he suddenly disappeared. It has nothing to do with his subconscious superficial consciousness." .” Feller was speechless by what I said. He walked back and forth a few steps, jumped onto the big rock, stepped his feet into the groove, raised his head to the sky, and said to himself: "He is half An alien, with alien blood, even if he refuses to admit it and doesn't want to go back—"

When he said this, he looked at me with a bit of embarrassment, obviously because what he was going to say was his "bold assumption": "...Is it his blood relatives... we must get him back? " Feller's hypothesis, at first glance, is very interesting, but also quite funny. It sounds a bit like a very old story. A member of a big family has an illegitimate child outside, and the big family wants the illegitimate child to return to the clan. , into the orbit of the family, and the illegitimate child is unruly by nature and refuses to give in... It is a tragicomedy of ethics, literature and art, and it is a good theme for TV soap operas. Feller actually put this kind of old-fashioned story on Zheng Baoyun.

But when I wanted to laugh but didn't, I thought about it quickly: So far, this is really the only hypothesis that can be established. This hypothesis can explain why Zheng Baoyun still pretended to be crazy after he recovered, and why he asked for help—because the aliens wanted to force him to go back; it could also explain why he mysteriously disappeared—being taken away by aliens; Explain why he wants to see me - he doesn't want to leave Earth. It can even be further speculated that he was originally a hopeless lunatic who suddenly recovered, and it was the aliens who healed him.

The aliens have been looking for Zheng Baoyun, who is half of their blood. As for how they found him, I naturally don't know, but there is always a way.For example, Zheng Baoyun, who has extraterrestrial blood, emits brain waves, which is quite different from that of people on earth. When I thought of this, I couldn't help but feel a sense of clarity. The depression I had been feeling for the past few days was greatly relieved. I laughed, and patted Fei Le's shoulder forcefully, "You're right." Because his assumption was too bold, Ferrer couldn't be sure for a moment whether I was really praising him or satirizing him, but he just looked at me with a rather strange expression.

I discussed with him what I had thought, and only then did he realize that his "random thinking" was actually very useful, and he danced for joy. We discussed for a while, and we all felt that this hypothesis could be established. I said: "According to this assumption, the alien must have had contact with Zheng Baoyun many times. You lived in the same room with him, did you not notice any abnormalities at all?" Perhaps because my expression was full of doubts, Feller hurriedly argued: "Don't look at me like you're looking at an alien. I... didn't notice anything. I'm from Earth. Look, my stomach is soft."

As he spoke, he actually pressed his stomach hard to prove that he is an out-and-out earthling. I laughed at his movements. This young man is wise and has a great sense of humor. I smiled and asked, "The four servants and the maid—" Fei Le shook his head: "There will be no problem. They have all worked in the hospital for a long time. My guess is that Zheng Baoyun's... the family..." I shook my head, saying that he used the term "family", which was not very appropriate, and he hurriedly corrected: "His...families?" I still didn't feel quite right, so I shook my head again.Ferrer hesitated a lot and thought for a while: "His blood relatives?"

I sighed: "Only half of his blood belongs to aliens." Feller objected: "However, in the second stage of his physical changes, the distance between him and the people on Earth is getting farther and farther away. The genetic factors of alien blood have overwhelmed the genetic factors of earth blood. It's like a half-black and half-white blood. A person of mixed race must be more like a black man than a white man." I tilted my head: "Don't forget that our explanation is that he doesn't want to go back with his... clansmen." Feller said: "Naturally, he grew up on the earth, and he has always been somewhat attached to the earth." What Feller and I are discussing at this time, if it is heard by people who don't know the reason, it is really absurd Extremely, but we discussed very seriously.Feller had a new insight: "When his clansmen contacted him, they might use a direct method of thought exchange. There was no need for anyone to show up. Naturally, I couldn't detect any abnormalities."

This is not impossible, Zheng Baoyun must have clansmen (the two of us agreed to use the term "clansman"), when Mrs. Zheng was pregnant, Zheng Tianlu once said "they couldn't think of it", and "they" naturally refers to Zheng Tianlu of the same kind. Judging from the situation at that time, Zheng Tianlu was not fully sure that he could combine with the earth people and give birth. It was very late at night, and my body felt a little wet and cold. It was close to the early morning, and the dew was about to condense. I glanced at the starry sky and said in a sad voice, "If our hypothesis is close to the truth, then this matter It's over."

However, Fei Le was gearing up and refused to let it go: "Why? Didn't he come back?" I pointed to the vast sky: "Do you know where he is? How to save him?" Ferrer shook his head: "No, that's not his own will──" I interrupted him: "Probably not at first, but I believe that it won't be long before the inheritance of his blood will kick in, and he will be happy to live with his people on another planet--the planet of his blood." , why should we bother?" Feller still didn't quite agree, but he couldn't think of any reason to refute, so he blinked his eyes silently. After a while, he jumped out of the groove: "This... is left by the spaceship. ?” I had no choice but to say: "Very likely." Feller smiled wryly: "It's possible, very likely, nothing is certain, it's all 'very likely'." I said loudly: "Yes, it's all just a possibility. Even Zheng Tianlu is an alien, it's just a possibility, not 100% sure." Ferrer muttered: "Actually... it's also affirmative." I smiled, noncommittal.Of course, I think so too, but there is still no conclusive evidence. Naturally, I didn't want this matter to end here. I also wanted to get to the bottom of it. I wanted to see Zheng Baoyun again, get in touch with his mentality, and learn from him about Zheng Tianlu's origin and what was recorded in that little book, and so on. However, it seems that Zheng Baoyun's disappearance is probably the masterpiece of his tribe. I also speculate that Zheng Baoyun will definitely adapt to the alien life. When the sky began to light up, Feiler and I walked back slowly. I didn't expect that the candid conversation with him overnight would yield so much, and Feiler seemed very excited. When we walked into the room, he suddenly asked: "Could it be... there are many people with alien blood living among the people on Earth?" I shook my head slowly: "It's hard to say, in fact, even aliens are very likely to live among us, like Zheng Tianlu, it's not easy to be discovered by others, after all, you can't press someone's belly just by seeing someone." Feller looked at me with a very strange expression. I knew what he was thinking, and said angrily: "I am an alien without bones in my stomach. Don't think that all aliens are like Zheng Tianlu." Fei Le hurriedly said: "Don't be surprised, you... have many strange encounters, it is inevitable that people will be suspicious." I smiled bitterly: "Even if there are many people with alien blood, why bother to discriminate? Just treat them as Earthlings." Ferrer sighed: "I'm afraid that blood will affect thought and inheritance. Don't the Chinese who have immigrated to other places still call themselves Chinese after three, five or seven generations?" I couldn't further explain this question, so I had to smile wryly.Fei Le said: "If Zheng Baoyun is interesting enough, he should try to inform us of his current situation." I shrugged my shoulders. Feller's wish was naturally whimsical. At this time, we had already gone upstairs. After Zheng Baoyun disappeared, the four male servants were transferred back to the Zheng family's old house. There was only one maid, who naturally hadn't got up yet.We broke up in front of the ward, each preparing to go back to the room. I have made up my mind to take a short rest and then set off home.In front of the ward door, remembering that a few days ago, I had knocked on the telegraph code on the door and missed a great opportunity to talk to Zheng Baoyun, I couldn't help sighing, and punched the door hard. Dr. Feller smiled: "Don't be sad, everyone makes mistakes, you—" He stopped abruptly before finishing his sentence. For a moment, I was also stunned. Because at this moment, there was another "bang" on the door. That sound was obviously from inside the door, and someone like me knocked on the door with a fist. There are people in the ward. Who will be in the ward?Zheng Baoyun?or someone else?There are many accidents in the world, but it is rare to have such an accident. For a moment, Fei Le and I looked at each other, not knowing what to do. After a while, I finally managed to speak, and the voice was very dry: "Who is it? Who is in the room?" After yelling, I calmed down a lot. While shouting and asking, I reached out to push the door, but after pushing it, the door was locked.I immediately looked at Fei Le, and Fei Le was also stunned. Under the current situation, we naturally didn't have the heart to find out who locked the door. Zheng Baoyun disappeared for several days, and everything in the house was very chaotic. , it doesn't matter who locks the door, first find out who is in the room! After all, Ferrer has lived in this room for a long time, and his habit of observing the ward is also different from mine. At this time, he took a step forward, came to the small window of the door, pressed a button, and opened the window , looking inward, he usually observes the patient, just like this. When he did that, his head covered the small window, so I couldn't see what was going on in the ward, I just saw Feller's body jerk as he leaned against the window and looked in. After a moment, he suddenly made a very weird movement, raised his hands, and grabbed at the door. It seemed that his body was about to fall, and before he fell, he wanted to grab something to support him. When I saw this situation, I hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" As I said that, I was ready to help him, but I had already taken a step back. The door was very smooth, and there was nothing for him to grab. He scratched his fingers on the smooth door, quickly shrunk into a fist, and stretched his body. In a flash, he fell straight backwards. I just came behind him, on one side of his body, I stretched out my hands to wrap around his side, preventing him from falling to the ground.I just feel that his body is extremely stiff, his face has a strange and inexplicable expression, his eyes are turned upwards, and the eyes that were originally very lively turned white so that the eyeballs cannot be seen. It is a serious spasm phenomenon. The muscles above his neck, If you stay in this muscle spasm for a long time, you may die of suffocation. At that moment, I couldn't help being a little flustered, patting his neck and flicking a finger on top of his head. In that case, moderate stimulation of the main acupuncture points on his head would do a lot of good.He had almost lost his breath at first, but after I patted and played him, he breathed out quickly, but there was still white foam gushing from the corners of his mouth. Generally speaking, only patients with epilepsy will experience sudden convulsions like this, and Feiler's situation at this time is somewhat similar. But I know that even if he had a sudden seizure of epilepsy, it must be caused by extreme fright or stimulation, and the extreme fright and stimulation naturally came from the ward. I still supported him, but I could already see the situation in the ward through the small window on the door, and I was mentally prepared, because Feller was so frightened when he saw it, the ward There may be something extremely terrifying in it. But when I looked at it, I was stunned, and there was no one in the room. Looking in from the small window, the situation in every angle of the room can be seen clearly, no one is empty, no one is there. So what is Feller afraid of?Just now there was a "Peng" sound on the door, and who made it? At this time, Feller's condition was still very bad. He had shortness of breath, but the corners of his mouth became more foamy, his eyes were still rolled up, and the degree of fainting was very worrying. I yelled loudly, hoping to wake up the maid, and kicked at the door. I kicked twice hard, and the door was already opened. I dragged Feller in, put him on the mattress, and quickly I turned around in the whole ward, and there was no one there. When I went to see Dr. Feller, the situation still didn't improve much. It was absolutely unexpected that Dr. Feller's condition had not improved until three days later. And during those three days, I don’t know how many strange things happened. Now I want to describe them one by one. I don’t know where to start. However, in retrospect, I feel like I don’t know how I got here. Under my yelling, the maid walked up the stairs sleepily. I pointed at Dr. Feller and shouted, "Hurry up, go to the hospital and call the doctor. Dr. Feller has had an accident." The maid glanced at Fei Le, her expression became terrified, and she cried out: "He... met a ghost and an evil spirit!" I didn't bother to scold her, and waved her a snapshot to tell her to do it. She staggered down the stairs and almost didn't fall down.I knelt down and held Feller's head in my hands, trying to wake him up. Tried for a while, to no avail.As far as the hospital building is concerned, people have already rushed over. The one who ran at the front seemed to be a doctor, but there were several other people following behind. Those people rushed into the room. An old man with a bald head and a loud voice, the doctor asked "what happened", the maid called "Mr. Just right, the house is haunted." I have already said that everything that happened at that time was extremely chaotic. I first met the doctor, pointed to the ward, and asked the doctor to take care of Feller.The old man also came to me, gasping for breath because he ran too fast, and blamed me with a blushing face: "You too, you are here, why don't you tell me, alas, I only know that Abao is missing , I didn’t know you were here, I can’t read, I don’t read newspapers, alas, I’m locked in the old house all day long, and I don’t ask about outside affairs; if he didn’t mention it, I really didn’t know you were here.” He said, pointing to the manservant. Although it was a mess, but the old man who was yelling, talking in a rough and uncoordinated way, he still had to explain where he came from, otherwise he would be even more mindless. The old man's surname is Chen, and he is an unknown distant relative of Mrs. Zheng, and he is of the same generation in terms of seniority, so he seems to call himself "uncle", and his status is the manager of the Zheng family mansion. I met him when Zheng Baoyun entered the hospital and was commissioned to handle the property of the Zheng family. Mrs. Zheng wanted to keep the old house, so she naturally handled it according to her wishes. The housekeeper of the old house was "third uncle", and he was very polite to me. , has always called himself Chen San.Chen San is loyal and has always managed the eldest man's house in a very orderly manner. After Mrs. Zheng died, he was already the owner of the mansion, but he still went to the main house to watch and clean it every day, so that the young master could Once out of the hospital, you can go home.Now that something happened to Zheng Baoyun, it was another blow to him, so when he saw me, he was as affectionate as seeing a relative. But what he said was really incoherent. He grabbed my hand and showed a look of extreme horror: "Mr. Wei, the house has been haunted for several days──" As he said that, I was about to shake off his hand and ignore him. Two hospital staff members carried a stretcher and already lifted Feller out. The doctor followed him with a worried expression on his face. Naturally, I was busy going to see Fei Le, which was more important than listening to Chen San's ghost stories. Who knew that when Chen San saw Fei Le on the stretcher, he yelled and shouted: "Damn it, is there a ghost here? See People who have been haunted by ghosts are frightened into such a state, and have not woken up." The doctor glared at Chen San fiercely, but Chen San ignored him. I was upset by him at first, and wanted to reprimand him loudly and tell him to shut up. After seeing Feller, he also said that he had seen a ghost. Is it true that the local legends were frightened by ghosts? I hurriedly asked, but Chen San said: "It's not necessarily true, but it just so happened that a servant in the house was frightened like this." My thoughts were very confused, Chen San said again: "Mr. Wei, do you want to come to the old house...to have a look?" I was angry: "What are you looking at, I don't know how to catch ghosts!" Chen San's attitude became very secretive: "Well... I... the situation is a bit strange... it seems to be the master..., maybe the young master... is back..." I was taken aback for a moment, and wanted to ask him the details, but a nurse hurried over and said, "Please go over here, the doctor has something to ask you." I knew it was for Fei Le's business, so I pointed at Chen San: "You wait for me here, you'd better wait downstairs, don't wander around, this room is a bit weird." Chen San was so frightened that his face turned pale. Although he said "It's broad daylight, don't be afraid", he had already shrunk his head and walked downstairs. I followed the nurse and came to the emergency room of the hospital building. There were several doctors there. The door of the emergency room opened, and a doctor came out, took off his mask, shook his head sadly, and looked at me: "Are you with him?" Together, what happened? It was early in the morning when the accident happened, and you didn't sleep?" I said patiently, "We discussed some things until dawn. How is Feller doing?" The doctor's throat was moving up and down, and his voice sounded dry: "He suffered from extreme panic and had suffocation for a short period of time. The degree of brain damage still needs further examination. The condition is very bad now. The reaction is gone!" I only felt cold hands and feet, and an old doctor came over: "He... what did you see or encounter?" I took a breath and briefly described the situation at that time, without explaining the ins and outs of course.The doctors looked at each other, and there was really no need to discuss anything. It was known that Feller must have seen some terrifying vision while looking around the ward, and it became like this. Question Yes: What did he see? I looked through the small window, and it took less than half a minute for him to look in. I couldn't see anything, so what could he see?However, he must have seen something, because of the sound from the door.I have also heard that there is nothing unreal. My voice was also extremely dry: "In a situation like his—" The old doctor sighed: "It's hard to say what will happen when the brain is stimulated. A lunatic who was hopeless a second ago will be no different from an ordinary person a second later." I slowly took a breath, such a situation has happened to me, I can naturally know that it is a real situation.That time, I was attacked by a person in a "shipwreck" on the bottom of the sea. The extreme grotesque, unbelievable and frightened made me a lunatic. Another doctor also sighed: "Feller is a good young man, we will do our best."
