Chapter 51

Xia Wenyuan looked tired when he woke up. He held Wu Lixia's hand tightly. Wu Lixia felt that her finger joints were almost broken by him, but she didn't complain or pull back her hand. Instead, she looked at her husband who was nearly 30 years older than herself with a gentle and compassionate look.

Hu Xing and Xia Wenyuan woke up almost at the same time. She panicked to search for the target around her. She was relieved when she saw the situation around her, knew that she had left her dream and really returned to reality, and her grandfather had woken up.

She suddenly felt very tired. It was like working overtime for three days and three nights. All her strength was evacuated. Is this what Aoki said, the sequelae of excessive mental energy consumption?

The aloes on the incense table raised faint green smoke. She saw that the first section of incense ash on the incense head just broke and fell into the incense plug.

Wu Lixia ordered someone to take tea and feed it to Xia Wenyuan with a silver spoon.

Xia Wenyuan drank ginseng tea and felt much better. He breathed out and said, "thank you, Mr. Aoki. You saved me."

"What happened?" Peter was confused. He only knew that master Xia woke up in less than three minutes, and the guy in the windbreaker didn't move. How could he save him? Is the old man crazy?

Xia Wenyuan ignored Peter and said to Wu Lixia, "let someone prepare a family dinner." then he smiled at Aoki and said, "please enjoy your face and stay for a simple meal today."

Next to Li Wei's heart moved and couldn't help looking at Aoki high. He has been in the Xia family for many years. He knows that the old man's reception of guests is divided into different standards. Those who can eat in this manor are not ordinary people, and there are several kinds of banquets, which can be called "family banquets". Wu Lixia is asked to go in person instead of Li Wei, which is the highest level. Even if the Xia family's own people, only the closest people can enjoy it.

Aoki was also polite and said, "Oh, don't burn too many dishes!"

What a hick. I thought it was the country's new year visit! Hu Xing was teased by Qingmu to puff and laugh, and even her physical fatigue seemed to be better.

Xia Wenyuan also laughed and said, "not much, not much. They are all fruits and vegetables planted on the back mountain, and the fish in the reservoir in front are also raised at home."

Wu Lixia came back from the kitchen after giving orders and said, "OK, the fish blowing in the reservoir is delicious again! It's not safe to cook any dishes. Your parents have bothered. Now please ask Mr. Aoki to solve our doubts and tell us how our old man is. Otherwise, you'll talk and laugh there, and our bystanders will be anxious to death!"

Wu Lixia's words caught everyone's mind, especially the confused doctor Peter.

"Ah, how do you say this? The shadow in your dream -" Aoki has a headache to explain something beyond their understanding with theory. "That shadow is actually yourself."

"Myself?"

"Yes, yourself," Aoki said, "Everyone has a shadow. The shadow can only appear in the sun. When our own body blocks the light, we have it. The shadow is the other side of our human nature hidden in the sun, and it is inseparable from us. Usually, we don't notice its existence, and it won't have any impact on us. But if our shadow has self-awareness, things will be better Trouble. "

"Self-consciousness?" Peter interrupted. His eyebrows twisted into a rope and looked at Qingmu like a monster. "You mean that Xia Lao's shadow had consciousness and wanted to kill him in his dream?"

Aoki said, "almost."

"Nonsense!" Peter scolded in English unconsciously. "If the shadow has consciousness, why don't you stand up now and go to the dream?"

Aoki shook his head and said, "it's not the shadow, it's the shadow in his heart, understand?"

"The shadow in my heart..." Xia Wenyuan thought.

Aoki said, "the shadow knows everything about you like the back of his hand. He knows your memory, your habits, your hobbies, where your inner vulnerability is, and even can predict what your conscious noumenon wants to do, so in a sense, he is yourself."

"Do you mean I'm schizophrenic?" Xia Wenyuan asked.

"No, you don't." Aoki said positively, "it's because you don't, so I'm sure that the source of this shadow consciousness must not be you. He's an intruder!"

"Intruder?" just like when Hu Xing first heard the word, others also expressed the same exclamation and questions.

On the contrary, Xia Wenyuan was calm and meditated in a wheelchair.

As a doctor, Peter naturally doesn't believe in the nonsense of consciousness invasion. He doesn't think that a shadow in a dream can kill people. From a medical point of view, this is obviously a mental disease. What he cares about most is Xia Wenyuan's brain lesion, which is really fatal.

"Then, Mr. Aoki, how did the intruder make Xia Lao's gray matter layer fibrotic?" Peter asked.

This question really stopped Aoki.

"Maybe it doesn't matter!" Aoki said. "I think when Professor Mei comes back from Europe, we can go to his laboratory to study it. You know, he has a lot of novelty there."

"Oh, really!" Peter sneered and said in his heart, do you think Xia is always an ordinary person? You can take it as an experiment and bring it closer to the laboratory! If that's OK, I don't know how many laboratories in the United States want to study it as a sample! And he doesn't have to take such conservative treatment.

"Wait until Professor Mei comes back." Xia Wenyuan seems to think of something, "To tell you the truth, Mr. Aoki, sitting in my position is like walking on thin ice every day. People who stare at our Xia family's industry can row all the way from Wuzhong to Shenzhou, and there are not a few who want to harm me. Mr. Aoki just said that this shadow is an intruder. Can you be more clear? Is it possible that who uses magic to harm me Me? "

Aoki knew that Xia Wenyuan had a suspect and said: "This possibility is not ruled out, but it is not easy to implant a consciousness in your brain! First, this person must know you very well and know your mental weakness; second, consciousness is not like a chip. It can be put into your brain through an operation. It must first have a seed of consciousness, and then contact you for a long time to relax your vigilance, and then Take advantage of it, enter your brain, hide and grow until it is as powerful as you. "

Xia Wenyuan said, "so it pretends to be a shadow in my dream? Who will be prepared for the shadow in my dream!"

"Probably so."

Xia Wenyuan asked, "what is the seed of consciousness?"

"It can be an obsession, a habit, or a little flooding of love." Aoki said, "but in this case, it usually causes your neurasthenia or schizophrenia at most, and a separate consciousness must have existed long ago, just like... Soul."

Aoki suddenly stood up, went to the famous Picasso painting and asked, "has this painting been hanging here?"
