Chapter 169 Unable to Leave the Village
On the other side, Xi Yueyao was calling out to Xiao Chi, who covered his face and cried, "This guy, does he think I'm dead? Old Xiao... Old Xiao..." Xi Yueyao stepped forward and tried to pry his hands open so that he could take a good look at himself.
"Bang" the wooden board that Xi Yueyao was standing on suddenly shattered, and the whole person felt a sense of weightlessness and let out a "ah" cry. At this moment, suddenly a hand grabbed the falling Xi Yueyao.
Xiao Chi held Xi Yueyao's hand and felt the warmth in it, "Xiao Xi! Are you really Xiao Xi?"
Xi Yueyao heard Xiao Chi's surprised voice and let out the breath that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time, "You finally recognized me... Then pull me up, don't keep this action, I'm not a dumbbell for arm training."
Xiao Chi pulled the petite Xi Yueyao up with force. Xiao Chi wanted to hug Xi Yueyao, but his body moved slightly and he gave up in the end.
"..."
"..."
Xiao Chi took a deep breath and said to Xi Yueyao, "This patient seems to have experienced a missed childhood, so in order to compensate for her childhood, she deliberately dresses herself up as a little girl and is even unwilling to grow taller."
Xi Yueyao heard what Xiao Chi said and said, "This patient who also lost his childhood, although he tried hard to act mature, is still childish. He is very tall, but it's probably because there is too much water in his brain, so it swelled up."
Xiao Chi listened to the familiar voice and the familiar conversation, "Such a silly headband style, it is indeed Xiao Xi... Are you... really alive now... or is it an illusion..."
When Xi Yueyao heard Xiao Chi still wondering whether he was a living person or a ghost, she said in a slightly angry tone: "If I am not a living person, can you see me? If you think you are me, you really have the ability to see ghosts? If you suspect that I am imagining things, I can also slap you and let you feel the slap of reality."
Xiao Chi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and exhaled slowly, letting go of the guilt and self-blame that had been suppressed in his heart.
"After you disappeared...many media outlets said that you must have met with an accident..."
Xi Yueyao said: "I saw those reports. I contacted the media to tell them I was still alive, but they didn't want to publish it. I also posted a message to clarify it myself, but no one believed me and accused me of pretending to be a deceased person and playing a prank."
Xi Yueyao sneered: "After all, it's more eye-catching for a psychiatric hospital doctor to go crazy and die. It's so boring for me to be alive. These people are just believers in the eyeball economy and online carnival."
After Xi Yueyao finished speaking, she asked Xiao Chi curiously, "Let's not talk about me. Your symptoms are quite interesting. When you were a child, wasn't your personality a weird little boy who was less than ten years old? Why do you think of yourself as me now?"
Then he joked: "Dissociative identity disorder is usually triggered by childhood trauma. You, a middle-aged and elderly person, have separated out a new personality, providing a new case for the medical community. You are indeed a role model in the industry."
Xiao Chi listened to Xi Yueyao's joke and said, "I don't know either. Maybe the boy has grown up and re-recognized his gender."
Xi Yueyao puffed up her cute little face, "Don't make such unprofessional jokes. How can a split personality grow, let alone change identity?"
Xiao Chi covered his face and said weakly: "I am a patient now, how can I be professional? Especially what happened recently is far beyond my understanding..."
After perking up, he continued, "I infer that my second personality has relapsed, but I don't know when the third personality was generated. My memories are all missing, and I don't know when I was using which personality to act.
When awake, I occasionally have vague memories of things I've done or even thought about. This is not a typical symptom, and there are very few cases where I can retain memories of other personalities.
Sometimes I thought I was you, and that I was trying to escape from the hospital. This happened so many times..."
Xi Yueyao heard what was going on in the hospital and understood what was going on. She said, "I heard about the rumor that the hospital was haunted, and I was wondering if you were the one who was doing the one-man show. It turned out to be you. Your words and actions seemed to be imitating me. It was disgusting.
But every time I found you, you ran away as if you had seen a ghost. I don’t know what you thought of me.”
After hearing Xi Yueyao's words, Xiao Chi was silent for a while and said: "... puppet... I don't know what it symbolizes..."
Xi Yueyao sighed, "You really have no creativity, it's either a mental hallucination or a puppet, you seem to be living in a Chinese horror movie.
Forget it. I am also a patient now and I don’t have the qualifications to practice medicine, so I won’t make any rash analysis. Let’s go, get out of this damn place. I have a few friends who came in, but they got separated when I was chasing you, and I don’t know where they went. ”
Hearing this, Xiao Chi smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to make friends like this. It seems that children can easily make friends."
Xi Yueyao patted Xiao Chi and said, "Let's go!"
After Xi Yueyao and Xiao Chi left the old house, they wandered around the village, but couldn't get out no matter what they did. Xun Yuanfeng and his group also couldn't find them, so they had to return to Yubaba.
Xiao Chi asked Xi Yueyao, "Look, it seems like something is stopping us from leaving. Doesn't this look like a collective attack on us? Besides, I didn't have any hallucinations when I was in my own personality."
Xi Yueyao said, "Haven't you studied the hypnotic bells of Zangling Village and the hallucinogenic effects of the Mingtuo orchid? There are probably those things everywhere here. Who knows when we were caught."
Xiao Chi thought about his research but couldn't explain it. Seeing Yubaba sitting in front of the door, he said to Xi Yueyao, "This situation doesn't seem likely... I heard that Yubaba is a fortune teller? This kind of strange thing happens to be her professional field. Let's ask her."
Xi Yue looked over and said, "That other old lady is indeed Tangbaba. I heard a noise in the house when I just walked over here. I was in a hurry to find you and hadn't greeted her yet."
The two of them walked forward, and when they got closer, Yubaba, who had been looking into the distance, quickly noticed them.
Granny Tang asked Xi Yueyao, "Where did this little girl come from? Isn't she going to school today? This place is unlucky, not a place for a little girl to play."
Xiao Chi smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, she is a student at the No. 1 Middle School in the city, and has been the school beauty for almost 20 years."
Xi Yueyao rolled her eyes at Xiao Chi and said to Granny Tang, "Granny Tang, don't listen to his nonsense. I'm not a child. Don't you remember me? I'm Doctor Xi from the Thirteenth Hospital."
Yubaba was stunned. "Huh? Doctor Xiao Xi? Oh, you said I'm so confused. Why do I feel like we just said these words..."
So Xi Yueyao and Xiao Chi told Granny Tang that they were wandering around the village, unable to find a way out, and couldn't even find their friends who had come in.
