Chapter 426 Discomfort
Chapter 426 Discomfort
"Turn left."
The friend sitting in the passenger seat returned to silence, only occasionally speaking to give Liu Peng directions.
"No, where are you going?" Liu Peng asked.
"Just drive." The gay friend replied through gritted teeth.
Liu Peng didn't dare to ask more questions after seeing his friend's expression, so he just shut up and focused on driving, but he still pouted a little unhappily.
The friend seemed to realize that his tone was a bit harsh. He shook his head to sober himself up, then said to Liu Peng with all his strength:
"I feel very uncomfortable now, and my tone may not be very good. You...you don't get angry."
"I understand, I understand. Just tell me where you want to go and where to turn. I won't ask."
However, after a while, the friend still tried his best to explain to Liu Peng:
"I don't actually know where we're going...but I'm asking you to drive somewhere that will make me more uncomfortable."
"Why are you doing this?" Liu Peng slammed on the brakes and looked at his friend and asked, "Shouldn't you normally find a place to hide that's more comfortable for you?"
"You...you keep driving." said the gay friend weakly.
"I won't!" Liu Peng rejected his friend's request: "Look at you! If you go any further you might die! If you don't give me a reason, I won't move even one meter forward even if you kill me!"
After hearing this, his friend laughed and nodded: "I really appreciate it... Thank you very much... But you drive first, I will talk to you slowly, I will convince you, please."
Liu Peng hesitated for a moment, but finally started the car slowly under the gaze of his gay friend.
"Before you woke me up today, I had a very long dream... It was very long, it seemed like hundreds of years had passed..."
After Liu Peng continued driving, his friend sat in the driver's seat and said quietly:
"In this dream, I existed as a... a bystander. It was as if I was left with only one consciousness floating in the universe. Then I saw... I saw a lot of... things. Even though I'm awake now, as soon as I close my eyes, those things will appear before my eyes again."
"What did you see?" Liu Peng asked.
"I saw... I saw a lot of... incomprehensible things. They were very... great and beautiful, surpassing all the wonders I had seen before." At this point, my friend swallowed his saliva, not knowing whether it was out of fear or excitement, and then he continued:
"They... they seem to be alive. They are constantly changing, devouring each other. I can feel their emotions... their anger, fear, joy, sadness, and... many other things that I cannot understand, but are as hot as flames and can burn people... I feel like my brain is about to explode."
Liu Peng nodded, and then he saw his gay friend constantly swallowing, so he opened the car refrigerator, took out a can of hot milk and handed it to him.
"Although I had no body in the dream, I could still feel myself being torn apart by them. Their power crushed me and then reassembled me. Every time it repeated, I would forget something. In the end, it seemed that I almost forgot myself. I seemed to gradually adapt to the state of being torn apart. Sometimes I even felt that I was one with them, and I even wanted to merge with them and become a part of them."
At this point, the friend opened the can and took a sip of milk. Then he looked at Liu Peng and said:
"If you hadn't woken me up in time... maybe after I'd truly forgotten who I was, I wouldn't have been able to wake up."
"Hehe...what you said...makes me feel embarrassed." Liu Peng said, scratching his head.
Friend: “Turn right.”
So Liu Peng started steering in a panic again.
"But that's not right. One thing at a time, you still haven't told me why you made me drive to a place that makes you uncomfortable."
Holding the warm milk in his hands, his friend seemed to be in a much better condition, and he spoke with more strength:
"After waking up, I seemed to have gained some knowledge that didn't belong to me. The world now looks completely different to me than before."
My friend: "I still can't fully understand this knowledge, but I have a strong instinct. I think we should find these nodes and find a way to shut them down. Maybe this way, we can reverse everything."
"We are going to save the world, right?" Liu Peng said.
"I guess so." said my friend.
"Then shouldn't we be more prepared before we go?" Liu Peng asked. "For example, if we go to that university and find more people like me who are not affected, wouldn't it be safer to strengthen the team before going to fight the villain?"
"It's too late." My friend said, "I can sense that the energy of this energy field is still rising... There's no time to develop slowly. If we delay any longer, I'm afraid it will be too late."
"That's just bullshit," Liu Peng said. "We support so many police forces, and in the end, we, the taxpayers, have to save the world. How is this any different from those children's anime where a bunch of knights and nobles are just sitting there doing nothing to save the world when they face the devil, and then in the end, young boys and girls who should be in high school have to save the world?"
Liu Peng's complaints made his friend smile sincerely, which was rare, and then he said:
“Now that things have come to this, just ask whether you should do it, don’t ask why.”
"When did you suddenly become so enlightened?" Liu Peng quipped, also laughing. "Under normal circumstances, wouldn't you say that anyone who wants to save this rotten world can do so, and it's best to destroy it quickly?"
But my gay friend just smiled and said nothing. Then he leaned towards the window. He looked at the scenery outside with indifference and emptiness, with neither sadness nor joy in his eyes.
After walking through a certain block, Liu Peng's body suddenly trembled.
Because he seemed to feel the kind of discomfort that was invisible and intangible, but directly affected the soul level.
If the soul really exists.
