Garden of Time and Space

Chapter 197 Epilogue
In front of her eyes, she returned to the street where she came. There were more people on the street, the trees became thicker, and the street lamps in front of her became obsolete, with small advertisements from her memory pasted on them.

She came back to reality.

Xie Jiao turned her head inadvertently, she saw Zeng Li, at this moment, Zeng Li was smiling gently at her, but for some reason, Zeng Li's body gradually became transparent, like an image, more and more The more illusory, it is like a wisp of smoke, as if it will disappear soon.

Thinking of what he said in World Travel just now, Xie Jiao forgot her fear for a moment, and walked towards Zeng Li step by step.

But before she got close, Zeng Li was so transparent that she almost couldn't see clearly. Xie Jiao ran over quickly, but Zeng Li disappeared. She reached out to grab it, but only caught a wisp of air. Zeng Li Completely disappeared.

Xie Jiao stood there in a daze, looked down at the empty hands, and suddenly felt lost in her heart.

She asked to herself, "Why are you here, didn't I leave your house by myself?"

In front of him, Zeng Li looked at Xie Jiao, but it was a pity that Xie Jiao could no longer see him.He smiled faintly, and after she went out, he followed her out. It was getting dark, and he was afraid that she would be in danger.

Xie Jiao felt that Zeng Li didn't seem to be leaving, he was beside her, she immediately looked around, but she didn't see anyone, she asked anxiously, "Zeng Li, are you still there, right? Why did I look?" Not to you? Why did it become like this?"

This time, she heard Zeng Li's voice, and he said something she couldn't understand, "Because, after the mission of the last illusory world is over, we will really be separated..."

After finishing speaking, Zeng Li completely disappeared, no matter how much Xie Jiao called Zeng Li's name to the surroundings, there was no response.The surrounding area was empty, as if she was the only one left, but looking back, it was clear that pedestrians were walking on the road, no different from just now, but Xie Jiao felt that everything seemed to be isolated from her, no one was watching No one could hear her hoarse cry.

Without Zeng Li, she was alone, she was the only one left in this world, and the endless sense of loneliness surged towards her in an instant, almost swallowing her completely.

For some reason, it seemed like a feeling. She felt that her heart was empty. Zeng Li seemed to have really disappeared. Although there were still many mysteries that had not been solved, she would never see him again.

Before her eyes, the pedestrians gradually disappeared, and snowflakes began to float in the sky. Xie Jiao's eyes were empty, and she slowly raised her head. Against the background of the dim yellow halo of the street lamps, there were crystal snowflakes falling on her cheeks, which was cold. .

She stood for a while, then slowly walked to the bench by the side of the road and sat down.

After a while, a man in black clothes and a black hat came over and sat beside her. Xie Jiao knew that this man was not Zeng Li.

She didn't have the time to ask who it was, so she just sat there quietly, waiting for that person to say something.

Next to him, the man in black opened his mouth. Hearing his deep and hoarse voice, Xie Jiao was stunned. His voice was very recognizable, not the deep and hoarse voice of ordinary people, like someone who had been bedridden for a long time and hadn't spoken for a long time. A person whose throat is dry and hoarse because of the jerky and hoarseness that has not been used for a long time.

This person was the strange man in the KTV private room who called her and gave her weird instructions.

She immediately turned her head to look over, the man took off her hat, and she actually looked at her father, Xie Yuan.It's been a long time since I saw her, and she didn't even recognize her father's voice.

She looked at Xie Yuan, and immediately asked all the questions in her heart, "What happened to all this?" She paused, "Aren't you supposed to be lying on the hospital bed?"

Xie Yuan looked at her lovingly, and said slowly, "Before I was alive, there were some patients who were not treated. I think these people are not sick, but a little anxious. They don't need systematic treatment. As long as they relax, they will recover slowly." Xie Yuan withdrew his gaze and looked into the distance, "And you, I have always felt that I have to work hard to give you a good life and set an excellent example for you, but when I get busy, I feel like I have entered a prison. Cage, gradually being bound by countless jobs, I can’t stop if I want to stop, I can’t accompany you until I become a vegetable, I can’t work anymore, I can finally be free to be with you, but I feel you The alienation of me, I heard you sitting in front of my hospital bed and said to me, you have always wanted to talk to me, but because you have not been together for a long time, you have gotten used to the alienation and become unfamiliar, now you finally have time to sit together , but I didn’t know what to say. At that moment, I suddenly realized that I was wrong. I was wrong for those who have not been healed, and for you. Any human heart disease, no matter how big or small, cannot be ignored Yes, as well as your growth and your thoughts. So, I found a few models, and I hope that my daughter, you, can help them. At the same time, I also hope that through the affairs of these four people, I can make up for what I lack for you. Life guidance, give you a vivid life education lesson."

After Xie Yuan finished speaking, Xie Jiao fell silent.

After a while, she said, "Where is Yu Hui, is she also your patient?"

Xie Yuan shook his head, "She's not. In the last illusory world, you are saving yourself." He looked at Xie Jiao, "After going through high school again, seeing Yu Hui, do you understand anything?"

Xie Jiao lowered her head, she understood.She shouldn't expose Yu Hui's past.Everyone makes mistakes, but everyone has the right to start over.

Yu Hui wanted to change, she finally changed to a new environment, and planned to start over, but her self-righteous sense of justice ruined all of this.

It was she who hurt Yu Hui cruelly first, and she was at fault first, so it is no wonder that Wang Mu and Yu Hui treated her like that later.

After being silent for a long time, Xie Yuan spoke again: "Jiaojiao, this world is not black and white, and many things have her reasons. Of course, Yu Hui has made mistakes, but she also has her difficulties. She has lived in the world since she was a child. In a single-parent family, her father remarried and married someone else. She and her mother lived in poverty and were often looked down upon by relatives. Yu Hui had low self-esteem and studied hard. At first, she wanted to change her future life through her own efforts, but every time she got together with her relatives When she came back, her mother would not be willing to indoctrinate her, telling her that she must find a rich man in the future, and let her raise her head in front of her relatives. It doesn't matter whether she has feelings or not, money is the most important thing, her mother also told her , What's the use of studying well, studying well is not as good as marrying, and I always tell Yu Hui unwillingly that my former classmates are obviously worse than me in study and not as good as her, but later married a rich man , now living the life of a rich wife, her husband pays the bill at class reunions, and her classmates support her when they chat. Wang Mu's family has money, and they always give her things, so Yu Hui lost herself and deliberately approached Wang Mu. Later, when things got serious, the school asked her to drop out of school. In fact, at that time, she had already regretted it and knew that she was wrong. She is not bad in nature, she also wants to change, and Wang Mu's family just helped her transfer schools in order not to affect Wang Mu's college entrance examination. You heard at the time that Yu Hui was with Wang Mu all the time. It was all rumors. After transferring to another school, Yu Hui broke up with Wang Mu."

Xie Yuan looked at Xie Jiao, "So, Jiaojiao, in the face of other people's past mistakes, what we can do is actually very simple, just keep shutting up, because sometimes, shutting up is also a kind of respect."

Xie Jiao also looked at Xie Yuan, and nodded very seriously like a little girl being taught.

Xie Yuan raised his hand, hesitated for a while, finally stretched out his hand, and patted Xie Jiao's head lovingly. On the opposite side, Xie Jiao was stunned for a moment, and smiled at Xie Yuan.

Feeling Xie Yuan's warm palm above her head, at this moment, Xie Jiao felt the true fatherly love.The warmth flowed from the top of her head to the depths of her heart.

She looked at Xie Yuan, and began to ask those puzzled questions in her heart, "You told me to go to KTV, then why did you let me drink the water in the glass before letting us leave?"

Xie Yuan: "I see you are a little nervous, I want you to relax."

Xie Jiao was speechless: "Then in every imaginary world, the things I regret have been changed, and you did it?"

On the opposite side, Xie Yuan was stunned. Obviously, he didn't know about this matter, "This is not me, it should be Zeng Li."

Xie Yuan smiled, "It's no wonder that his body becomes weak so quickly. I've seen him before. He is very energetic. He shouldn't be able to last until the end. It turns out that he did unnecessary things."

Xie Jiao suddenly remembered that from the second illusory world, Zeng Li started to have an inexplicable fever, and then in the third illusory world, he even fooled her that he was fine, it was only because he was under the quilt in reality, and she unexpectedly , I still believe it.

And in the second illusory world, when she went to Zeng Li's house for the first time, Zeng Li looked out the window and said to her weakly: "Xie Jiao, sometimes I hate my incompetence."

At that time, she didn't understand how Zeng Li, who was so omnipotent, felt that he was incompetent, and how ordinary people like them could live.

Looking back now, she suddenly understood everything.

Zeng Li never thought of harming her, and he liked her, just like she liked him, sincerely, and he liked her very early on.

But she doesn't remember any friendship between herself and Zeng Li?

Xie Jiao looked at Xie Yuan: "Where is Zeng Li now? What about others? He is, how did he know me?"

Xie Yuan didn't tell her where Zeng Li was, but just told her about Zeng Li, "When you were taken away for emergency treatment, Zeng Li came to my ward, sat by my bed, and told me a lot In other words, he told me that he was very painful and blamed himself. He felt that he had hurt you. I felt that he was so sad because of you. At the same time, I also felt his strength. After that, I used my consciousness to sneak into I found him in his dream, and asked him if he wanted to live with you for a while, and he said yes without hesitation, and I said don't worry, wait until I finish speaking."

Xie Yuan paused, "I told him my discovery. After you became a vegetable, I found that I could sneak into your subconscious. Although you don't know anything, I can clearly know that you can hear the voices from the outside world. , I can also feel your feelings, I found that your desire to survive is not strong, but you can obviously survive."

Speaking of this, Xie Yuan sighed before continuing: "I told him that I can take you into a dream through the manipulation of consciousness. I want to make up for you and take you to different illusory worlds in my way, but I need someone Help, a healthy, strong, trustworthy person who loves you and is willing to give everything for you to be the carrier of these illusory worlds. To put it bluntly, you need a person to be the container of these illusory worlds. In these worlds, because He is a container, so he can do whatever he wants in the dream, become anyone in the dream, and can do anything. The only thing he can't do is betray me. If you betray, your time travel will be affected. So I have to find A person who loves you enough, if he really wants to, then he can stay with you for a while in the illusory world, but he will have to pay the corresponding price, the price is soul damage. Moreover, if you reject him, he will Badly damaged, maybe even dead from it, but if you can make sure you love him, as much as he loves you, before he's done all the work, he'll be fine. That's totally uncertain, though thing."

Xie Yuan looked at Xie Jiao: "After that, I asked him, are you still willing now? As a result, he agreed again without hesitation."

When Xie Yuan said this, Xie Jiao remembered that in the third illusory world, she was worried that she would become like Zhang Xiao. At that time, Zeng Li told her with certainty, "You won't, because I won't let you become like Zhang Xiao." Make it like this." At that time, she thought they would always be together, he was not Chen Ming, so he would not let her become like Zhang Xiao.But thinking about it, it turned out that what he meant was that he would use his life to make her change herself and become a better self, so that subjectively, no matter who she was with, she would never become like Zhang Xiao.

Xie Jiao's eye sockets became moist unconsciously.

Beside, Xie Yuan’s words continued, "I asked him why? He said, he has known you since he was very young, once when he was beaten when he was young, you went to protect her, and once when he was playing on a swing in the park, you guys The two fell down at the same time, you obviously fell harder, but you crawled over to see him first, at that moment, he felt that your eyes were so bright, like the light in his world."

Speaking of this, Xie Yuan seemed a little angry, "I heard what he said at the time, and I didn't want to cooperate with him anymore. He actually put you in danger, my precious daughter. But I really have no other choice, and, He's also really sincere."

Xie Yuan: "He also told me that he saw you again later. But at that time you already liked Wang Mu, so he didn't go to you, but chose to bless you and accompany him silently. So that's why, no matter where you are In any dream, no matter what you become, Zeng Li will be by your side."

Xie Jiao asked Xie Yuan: "Then why did all the illusory worlds happen in the same year?"

Xie Yuan: "Because that year was the year he saw you again."

Xie Jiao felt warm in her heart. Thinking of Zeng Li, she remembered another question in her heart, "I was in the photocopying and typing agency near Zeng Li's doctoral student apartment, and saw him take a portfolio. My sister told me it was a photo, whose photo did he take away?"

Xie Yuan stretched out his hand, and the scene of that moment appeared in front of Xie Jiao, after she was scared away, the light turned on, the girl at the front desk of the typing agency looked up at the light, and said to herself, "Why is the power cut off again. "After that, she looked towards the direction Xie Jiao left, "Am I that scary? I laughed because he took away all your photos."

The picture in front of him disappeared, and it returned to the state of falling snow.

Xie Jiao asked Xie Yuan, "Then where is he now? I want to see him."

Xie Yuan looked at Xie Jiao, hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly, "You didn't choose to trust him before all the missions were over, and, in order to make up for your regrets, he did too many unnecessary things and consumed too much energy , so you just saw him and disappeared prematurely."

At this moment, Xie Jiao collapsed. She treated Zeng Li badly and misunderstood that he treated him coldly. He helped her find Yu Hui and she even beat him. In the illusory world, he did so much for her. He didn't trust him, and in the end, he knew that she had done such a cruel thing to Hui...

Why is he so nice to her!

Xie Jiao anxiously pressed Xie Yuan's arm, "Can I see him again?"

Xie Yuan didn't answer, but just asked her, "Do you love him?"

At this moment, tears welled up in Xie Jiao's eyes. She loves him, of course she loves him.

Xie Yuan looked at Xie Jiao: "Go back, as long as you are alive, everything has hope."

Xie Yuan withdrew his gaze and looked at the distant sky.

She wants to see him.

At this moment, Xie Jiao's eyes were pitch black, and everything around her disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, she opened her eyes, and beside her was Chen Xin's excited voice, "Doctor, my daughter is awake, my daughter is awake..."
