Love in a mental hospital

Chapter 346 The Growing Black Dragon and the Dead Black Dragon

After lunch and a nap, while everyone in the convalescent building was in class, Group 2 of four came to the ward.

The ward is full of critically ill patients who are either unable to take care of themselves, are at high risk of self-harm or suicide, or may hurt others.

For example, the patient today thought that his music teacher was a traitor, so he cut off the head of the young female teacher who had just graduated from college and went to the police station to collect the reward.

The police station sent him to a mental hospital, and he was eventually sent to Jinghai.

None of this has anything to do with Group 2. They are a bunch of rookies and are not qualified to take on such a horrific patient alone.

In the operating room, the patient sleeps in the middle, and the other seven beds surround it in a fan shape.

Zhuang Jing, Yan Hanxiang, young lady Zhang Ying, Su Qing, He Qingyan, Gu Ran, and Chen Ke were lying on these seven operating beds and fell into a deep sleep.

◇

The moonlight is like bones, the night is like gauze, and the endless wild grass is like a grave. This is the wild grass plain.

"Chen Ke, take me to the World Tree first." said Zhuang Jing, who was wearing a white coat.

"Okay." Chen Ke took out the comic paper and quickly sketched the mountains.

Zhuang Jing walked into the drawing paper.

After a while, the void rippled, like ripples caused by a stone thrown into the water, and a vine actually grew in the center of the ripples.

The bright green of the vines is in stark contrast to the atmosphere of the barren grass plain.

The vine slowly stretched out, and if you didn't see it very clearly, you would think it was a green snake disguised as a vine.

The vines spread to everyone's feet, with broad leaves growing on both sides.

"It looks like a staircase." Gu Ran looked at Ye Zi.

"It's the stairs." Yan Hanxiang took the lead and walked up. "This is the new monster Xiaojing recently exchanged for, the 'Hand Toad' she used."

Hand toad?
How could it be a hand toad?
Gu Ran was very confused.

The Hand Toad is a special monster captured in [Black Dragon Dream·Drifting Classroom]. With Zhuang Jing's personality, even if he exchanges the [King] and [Knight], he will not exchange the [Hand Toad].

It’s not that the Hand Toad is powerful, but that it has inestimable research value.

Research value.
Could it be that Zhuang Jing has already reported the matter of the "Black Dragon Dream" to the North City Psychologist Headquarters?
"Let's go. What are you thinking about?" He Qingyan bumped his elbow with her elbow.

Su Qing, the young woman, and Chen Ke have followed Yan Hanxiang's footsteps and walked up the steps covered with vines and green leaves.

Gu Ran came back to his senses and stopped thinking about it. No matter what, he believed in Zhuang Jing's choice.

"Let's go," he said.

Following the green leaf steps, we trudged up and soon passed the top of an arc. When we walked down, we found that the World Tree Mountain Range was below the steps!

Zhuang Jing knelt on one knee and stroked the "mountain", as if checking the real fatal wound and blood color of a corpse.

Everyone walked down the leafy steps one by one, and the vines shrank until they were only the size of a pea seedling, and even their shape was similar.

"Plants vs. Zombies?" He Qingyan pondered.

"Are you almost done?" Su Qing asked.

"Not even close."

“The working hours are too short.”

"It's not that the working hours are short, it's that the time spent in the office is short." He Qingyan corrected.

Su Qing looked at Yan Hanxiang.

Yan Hanxiang pretended not to hear.

Gu Ran looked at Su Qing with a strong gaze, hoping that she could punish He Qingyan!

Su Qing pretended not to see it.

Chen Ke glanced at Gu Ran and was amused by the fact that he looked like he was about to faint from anger.

Zhuang Jing stood up, took out the [Invisible Lantern] from nothingness, walked forward with the lantern, and everyone followed behind.

"Can we finish this day?" Yan Hanxiang asked.

"Let's go as far as we can." There was no hope in Zhuang Jing's tone.

The World Tree is boundless, and no one knows where the end of the light flow is. It may be just a hundred meters ahead, or it may be a hundred kilometers, a thousand kilometers, or ten thousand kilometers ahead.

The light flow cannot be seen clearly from a distance, otherwise if Gu Ran turned into a black dragon and carried Zhuang Jing, the speed would be much faster.

"Besides the bus, can't you take other means of transportation?" He Qingyan thought quickly, or perhaps she couldn't stand the boredom of traveling, so she asked Gu Ran the first thing she did.

"What kind of transportation can allow Aunt Jing to see the light flow clearly while moving quickly?" Gu Ran asked her back.

"Isn't a crooked pastor's crook enough?" Su Qing asked.

"I tried it, but the [Curved Shepherd's Staff] didn't respond. I don't know if it's useless, or if the end of the light stream is still the World Tree." Gu Ran replied.

"It's like the World Tree is a home, and the [Cranked Crooked Staff] can only navigate to this home, but cannot navigate to a more specific location of a piece of furniture?" Chen Ke asked tentatively.

"That's also a possibility." Gu Ran said.

"Mom, is there any monster that can help?" He Qingyan looked for Yan Hanxiang again.

"Life is like this sometimes. You can only rely on your feet to complete the long journey. Not everything has shortcuts." Yan Hanxiang answered the question while educating her.

"Oh, so boring." He Qingyan sighed.

There is a mountain road under your feet with more stones than soil, and nothing else. Even if you are a hiking enthusiast, you probably won't choose this deserted place with no scenery.

After walking for a while, He Qingyan said, "Gu Ran, carry me, I can't walk anymore."

"Stop talking nonsense."

"Really, I am an idealist. I am full of energy when things are interesting, but I can't even raise my eyes when things are boring."

Gu Ran was about to criticize her when Zhuang Jing suddenly said, "Xiao Ran, carry Qingyan, Su Qing, and Chen Ke on your back and look around."

"Aunt Jing, I have no problem with my strength, but I can't carry three people."

"I'll turn you into a black dragon." Su Qing said angrily.

"It's to turn you into a black dragon." Chen Ke reminded softly.

"Silly boy, you can't turn into a black dragon!" He Qingyan teased him smugly.

——The three of them spoke at the same time.

Zhuang Jing and Yan Hanxiang laughed, and the young woman also smiled like a mature woman.

Gu Ran felt like he was on edge, so he quickly summoned the black bird and handed the battlefield over to the black dragon.

Not to mention three women, even if there were seven or eight, Black Dragon could carry them!
The bat-like dragon wings spread out with a bang, and with a slight exertion of force on its strong hind legs, the huge dragon body took off into the air and soared above the mountains.

"I still prefer Eastern dragons to Western lizards," said He Qingyan.

"If I can ride instead of being ridden, I would like it even if you are a pig." Gu Ran said.

Gu Ran also wishes he was Dongfang Long.

If possible, who doesn't want to look better? But appearance is not something that can be useful just because you want it, so don't worry about it.

What's more, once he was sure that he was like this, he would not change even if he was offered the best appearance in the world.

He just wants to be himself, a black dragon is a black dragon, with bat wings and horns on a giant lizard's head. If this is him, then this is him.

A warm current suddenly appeared between the eyebrows and flowed into the whole body.

Silently, like the growth and decline of a shadow, the black dragon changed its appearance and grew to thirty meters in size.

The two largest dragon horns on the head became extremely thick, and there were countless small horns, which together formed a complex pattern.

Like a crown.

It's not simply that the body has grown larger, but there is also a little more specious knowledge in the mind, just like the fragmented memories of a dream that ordinary people have after waking up.

The original divine body is no longer possible in reality. But it can be revived in dreams to devour, devour, and devour!
"Swallow." The word seemed to have a soul, rushing out of Gu Ran's mind and jumping out of his mouth.

"What's wrong with you?" Su Qing's worried voice came.

Gu Ran came to his senses and found that he had landed on the ground without knowing when. Su Qing and the other two jumped off the dragon's back and gathered around the dragon's head worriedly. "It seems like a dream." Gu Ran muttered.

"Dreaming? Are you dreaming? This is a barren grass plain and we are in a dream." He Qingyan said.

Chen Ke looked at him worriedly.

The black dragon blinked his ruby-like eyes, raised his head and looked towards the sky. He had a strong urge, as if he could fly away from here just by kicking his feet.

Fly out? Fly to where?

Reality?

Fly from dreams to reality?
Then, an instinctive sense of danger strangled his impulse, as if he would die if he flew out.

The sense of death was so strong that it gave him a sense of horror that would make a human being break into a cold sweat.

What's going on? Where does this feeling that the real world is an abyss, a hell, come from?

No, no, the weird thing is, how could I have the idea of ​​flying from dreams to reality?

In order to deny the inner thoughts, the dragon head shook, allowing the body movement to enhance the mental suggestion.

As the absurd thoughts disappeared, Gu Ran finally returned to normal. At the same time, a powerful force surged, as if at this moment, he woke up from a dream, regained control of his body, and took control of everything about himself.

Although it was clearly his own body, Gu Ran had the illusion that a powerful force was surging from him.

The black dragon has become more powerful and has the ability to devour.

There are two types of engulfment.

1. Half-swallowing, temporarily swallowing the object and temporarily controlling all the abilities of the object;
Second, swallow the whole thing, swallow the object, digest the object, and permanently control all the abilities of the object.

In that case, all I have to do is swallow Aunt Jing. How could I have such an idea?

Having said that, Gu Ran didn't really care. Swallowing an object doesn't mean swallowing it into the stomach, and the black dragon doesn't have a physical "stomach".

"Come up, let's go back." The black dragon raised his huge body.

"What's wrong with you?" Su Qing was worried.

Gu Ran smiled: "My soul has grown. I think I will soon have a spiritual world!"

"Really?" Chen Ke said in surprise.

"You believe this?" Gu Ran was even more surprised.

Chen Ke: "."

She thought about it, raised her leg and kicked the dragon.

"Don't reward her." He Qingyan stopped Chen Ke.

“Hahaha!” Black Dragon laughed loudly, “Come up quickly, don’t delay the important matter!”

Su Qing and the other two were still curious, but they knew that the operation time was limited and it was not the time to discuss.

They climbed onto the dragon's back, which had grown even wider.

Gu Ran's heart moved, and a few dragon scales slightly dented and actually turned into a chair.

"You are becoming more and more perverted." Su Qing sighed.

"I hope you are talking about biological abnormality." No longer needing to rely on force, the black dragon took off into the air.

Gradually, I even stopped flapping my wings, as flying seemed to have become an instinct.

After returning to Zhuang Jing, Yan Hanxiang and the young woman, Gu Ran briefly explained the situation and then handed the decision-making power to Zhuang Jing.

"This is such a dangerous thing, let me try it first!" He Qingyan said.

The black dragon opened its mouth and swallowed her.

Everyone: "."

The black dragon suddenly raised its body as if it was going to soar into the sky. It maintained this posture and spread its wings with a bang.

The huge dragon wing was divided into six parts by the dragon bones, one of which was engraved with the image of He Qingyan.

Amidst the roar, the [Heart Wall] descended, and a huge blood-red beauty snake swam out from the stone wall, raising its three-meter-high neck among the rocks, with its head raised high, looking down at everyone.

The black dragon crawled again, the beautiful snake disappeared, and the [heart wall] faded away.

"How magical!" Five colors flashed, and He Qingyan walked out from the dragon wing, "and merged with Gu Ran. Although he ate me, it was more like he entered my body!"

"Just shut up." Gu Ran gave in. Even in front of Zhuang Jing and Yan Hanxiang, he didn't want to be polite to her anymore.

No, it was precisely because he was in front of Zhuang Jing and Yan Hanxiang that he was so rude!
"But be careful," He Qingyan's bright and delicate face suddenly became serious, "After being eaten by him, we can't resist at all. If he doesn't let us out, we can't get out."

"I"

"Eat me." Zhuang Jing said before Gu Ran finished speaking.

Gu Ran didn't say anything more. He just said, "Please be patient," and then the huge dragon mouth carefully called out to Zhuang Jing.

Su Qing looked at the dragon wing, and Zhuang Jing's voice appeared on the blank dragon wing.

"I see it." Gu Ran clearly saw a stream of light, like a thin and nearly dried-up stream, flowing in the mountains.

"Come up quickly!" he urged again.

There is still time, but he doesn't want Zhuang Jing to stay in his body for too long. He doesn't know what that feels like, but the feeling of being unable to move and being dominated by others must not be pleasant.

With the help of his forelimbs, everyone climbed onto the dragon's back and sat down on the chairs made of dragon scales.

The black dragon rose from the ground and flew rapidly along the river.

The speed was very fast. According to Gu Ran's estimation, it had at least surpassed the speed of an airplane.

After flying for ten minutes, he landed on the ground and let Zhuang Jing get off the Dragon Wing.

"What's wrong?" Zhuang Jing asked.

".I'm afraid you'll feel bad."

"It's not uncomfortable." Zhuang Jing smiled, "I believe you."

Gu Ran felt that he could even pull the earth and run around the sun!
We took off again and flew for more than three hours in one breath, and finally saw the source of the light flow.

"Is this... a rock?" Su Qing wondered.

The stream of light flows out from a stone that looks like the Flying Stone from Huangshan Mountain.

"No," the black dragon's eyes lit up, glowing red, "it's a black dragon."

"Black dragon? Your kind? Was there a pioneer of the Black Dragon Dream who died here in order to prop up the World Tree?" He Qingyan asked questions continuously.

"In Norse mythology," Yan Hanxiang pondered, "Nidhoggr is entrenched at the base of the World Tree, constantly gnawing at the World Tree - Nidhoggr is a black dragon."

Chen Ke tried to say, "Could this be Nidhogg's body? Is the light stream his blood?"

"It's not blood." Zhuang Jing didn't look at the stone that the black dragon's body had turned into. She stroked the light stream and said, "This is the vitality of the World Tree. After the black dragon died and Nidhogg died, this vitality returned to the World Tree and became the biggest reason why the World Tree can still survive."

"How will this help us in supporting the World Tree?" Su Qing kept in mind the fundamental purpose of this team.

"Don't be afraid." Zhuang Jing suddenly whispered.

Everyone looked at her in confusion.

"Xiao Jing?" Yan Hanxiang asked tentatively.

Zhuang Jing stroked the mountain gently: "I know you have really reached the edge of life, but we are here, we will help you. Don't be afraid, we will save you."

It was a slight earthquake that lasted for one second, so slight and short that it made people suspect it was an illusion.

Zhuang Jing laughed.

《Personal Diary》: Friday, October 16, during surgery
I have grown up again.

Have you really grown up? Do you feel more like you have found yourself better?
At the end of the light stream is the body of the black dragon Nidhogg. The light stream is the vitality of the world tree that it devoured.

I'm a little worried about Aunt Jing.
