Yang Zhi's whole body felt cold like being soaked in ice water, he fell into a cold war and woke up from this kind of trance nightmare state.
Kong Xuyang next to him frowned and looked at Yang Zhi who was squatting next to him: "Why did you come back, you were so out of your mind just now?"
Yang Zhi shook his head vigorously, trying to wake himself up, a forced smile appeared on his pale face: "... I don't know how to answer, the more I digest the memory of Liu The more, the easier it is to immerse yourself in his memory, never before..."
"His memory is weird, with three folded regions."
Talking about Liu, Kong Xuyang became a little interested: "What folding area? Weakness? Privacy?"
"It's not..." Yang Zhi frowned, "It feels like a memory that has been covered, and another layer of overlapping memories has been formed on the memory. When I digest it, it feels very strange, as if I ate it twice. Memories of the same time period."
Kong Xuyang raised his eyebrows: "Isn't it that Liu's memory was erased three times and re-woven?"
"Even the memory has been tampered with, and Liu is really confused." Kong Xuyang smiled meaningfully, "Anyway, the monster we are guarding has not moved yet, so talk to me carefully."
After that, Kong Xuyang sat down on the floor, and put on a gossip expression with malicious intentions: "I haven't heard anything that makes me feel happy tonight, but Liu's What disgusting things are there in the memory? You come out to make me feel relieved."
Yang Zhi glanced at Kong Xuyang's face, and thought about it: "The first time Liu's memory folding phenomenon occurred was when he was fourteen years old, and he was originally in a private orphanage. grow up."
"Liu suffered a lot of discrimination and torture in the private orphanage." Yang Zhi's face became a little uncomfortable, he seemed to feel cold, and subconsciously rubbed his arms, "The dean over there doesn't like him, he often uses Punish him with various reasons, such as temporarily increasing the tasks of Liu Liu, and later, he did not complete the housework or study tasks on time, and let Liu stand barefoot in a bucket in the snow in winter, or let Liu He was digging ice in sub-zero temperatures to clean the pond behind the orphanage."
Kong Xuyang narrowed his eyes slightly, and whistled happily: "What about the childhood of a standard loser?"
"However, these memories were overwritten by whoever edited them. In the end, the memory left by Liu Liu was that he grew up smoothly in a public welfare institution with strict management and good treatment for children. When I was eighteen years old, I didn’t suffer any abuse or torture, and the teachers and the dean treated Liu Liu very well, but I often felt headaches because of Liu’s rebellion.” Yang Zhi said.
"Tsk." Kong Xuyang pursed his mouth in boredom, "The abuse that is not remembered is meaningless. There is no way to cause continuous trauma to people. How about Liu's first memory folding?"
Yang Zhi's expression gradually became strange: "Yu Liu's first overlapping memory happened at the age of eighteen, a few months before his college entrance examination."
"College entrance exam?" Kong Xuyang's expression showed complacency and contempt, "We checked Liu's college entrance examination score, and it was only over 400 points, which is much lower than mine."
"It seems that even if an unknown high-level player showed kindness and modified the memory, exempting the so-called [childhood trauma], Liu will still be unable to support the wall with mud, and a loser is a loser."
"No." Yang Zhi couldn't help but retort, "At first, Liu's grades were worse than that of this one, and he could only score more than 300 points in the exam."
Even Kong Xuyang was surprised: "More than three hundred? Has he never studied in high school for three years?"
"Basically, from my memory, Liu never listened to class, and basically slept in class. Although he was forced to learn by his good friend Lu Yizhan, he quickly reverted to his old ways. "Yang Zhiyu, "Basically all of them escaped from the evening self-study, and escaped to play games."
"In the third year of high school, Liu also received a major disciplinary action, which was included in the file and criticized by the whole school. After that, Liu's grades continued to decline severely."
"As for Liu's score, he didn't even get half of the total score, so what room is there for him to decline?" Kong Xuyang raised his eyebrows and asked, "What punishment did he receive?"
Yang Zhiyu: "Tricked students from the same school to steal family money to gamble, fight with weapons, involving tens of thousands of dollars, and almost went to jail."
"In the end, the parent of the other party did not call the police and chose to go private. After being severely criticized, Liu bowed his head and apologized to the classmate, and was recorded as a major demerit."
"Originally Liliu was going to be expelled, but at that time there were two top students in their school, Fang Dian, who was the youngest, and Lu Yizhan, who had been in the top ten for a long time, and the school. If Liu was to be expelled, They dropped out of school together with Liu, and finally the school decided to let Liu stay in school for probation after weighing the matter."
"The one named Fang Dian was also charged with luring Gambling for Liu Liu, and was charged with a major demerit together with Liu Liu. The two of them went to the national flag platform to read the self-criticism in front of the whole school, almost putting The fault was all on my own shoulders, forcing the school to stay behind."
"But after that, Liu's score dropped to more than 200. Although he didn't study hard, he didn't do anything wrong again. People around him were pointing at him and going to the bathroom. It’s gone on the desk when I come back, and the bed in the dormitory is also dirty all the year round, splashing all kinds of water and so on, is it considered campus bullying?”
"But Liu Liu's reaction was very flat. He didn't care at all. If the desks were gone, he would switch to another classroom and continue sleeping. It didn't matter what grade he was in or what class he was in. If he couldn't sleep in the dormitory, he would go to the Internet cafe to sleep all night."
Kong Xuyang clicked his tongue a few times: "It's a gangster."
Yang Zhi's expression became more and more strange: "But at this moment, a person suddenly appeared in Liu Liu's memory."
"Or it can't just be a person. This person can only be seen by one person, and no one else can see it. It's like a companion ghost, or the kind of child who is so lonely that he has problems in his heart." The kind of [friends that only I can see] made out of fantasy."
"A ghost accompanied him silently, and went in and out with him every day. No matter how hard Liu Liu tried to drive him away, he squatted like a dog in front of Liu Liu's sleeping chair every night and guarded him, occasionally. Put your head on Liu's body and hug him to sleep together."
Kong Xuyang sneered: "There is something wrong with Liu Liu's brain, right? It's normal. It's all strange that he didn't lose his mind after all these experiences."
"...I don't know if there is something wrong with Liu Liu's brain, or my brain is wrong. I have eaten too much and my memory is still confused." Yang Zhi inserted his fingers into his hair, clasped it tightly, and lowered his head in a daze. self-mumbling:
"A ghost that suddenly appeared at the end of Liu's high school, a friend who I don't know if he fantasized..."
"—the son looks exactly like the spade."
Kong Xuyang lost his voice and asked back: "...What?!"
Another head.
Liu Liu led Mu Sicheng around the weir pond, walked across the dry stone bridge, and followed the path in the TV screen all the way to a barren mountain full of graves.
The tombs are big and small, some are new and some are old. Qingming just passed, and there are still unburned paper money next to many of the tombs, half-burned red candles stuck in the ground, and strange-looking dead trees beside them. There are several strings of fried firecrackers hanging on the top, and the old money is scattered everywhere on the ground.
The nearest grave seems to be a person from Yinshan Village who was buried recently. A relatively modern marble tombstone is erected, and an epitaph and a black posthumous photo are neatly engraved on it with a laser.
And the farther away there is nothing, only a bare grave, and if you are lucky, you can find a simple tombstone beside it that has been eroded by wind and rain so much that you can't read it -- a piece of grave. Engraved wooden board.
Mu Sicheng held up the camera in night vision mode, and carefully photographed the tombstones of some graves on the fluorescent green screen.
In the dark deep mountain and old forest, under the green light and shadow, in the photos of the tombstones, all the old people with mottled hair and neat smiles seem to be staring at the two unhurried people who are about to throw graves. As a guest, the originally peaceful and kind smile on his face gradually became resentful and jealous.
Mu Sicheng clasped his palms together as a prayer, and said in a low voice: "Offences are unavoidable, don't blame them."
"Mu Sicheng, come here and take a picture of me." Liu Liu waved from a distance.
Mu Sicheng carefully stepped over the grave, and held up the camera to take a picture of the place pointed by Liu Liu, and he squinted his eyes: "What is it?"
On the ground, facing some of the tombs, there are three porcelain wine cups, in which some ashes-smeared wine has been poured, and three plates of raw meat of different colors and textures are placed beside them. The paper money, with four sticks of incense burning at the front, two candles, and a small money dress, are burning faintly.
"It's a device for borrowing money from Yin. Someone came to the mass grave before me. The place where most people in Yinshan Village are actually buried has been arranged. Everything has been done. Qi and Yin money have been borrowed, and now this place can no longer borrow Yin money again, and I can't complete the task." Liu Liu looked up at Mu Sicheng.
Mu Sicheng gritted his teeth: "Damn it, Kong Xuyang is doing it again!"
