Chapter 21 I See Qingshan
On April 27, the drizzle stopped, and a hole occasionally appeared in the gloomy lead-gray sky, revealing the clear blue sky behind. It was like the artistic conception of "the sky is blue after the rain". The Seventh Hospital was not much different today than in the past. The weather outside was really none of the patients' business.
In such weather, Zhang Dadao missed several of his former patients. As one of the largest psychiatric hospitals in Jiangnan Province, the Seventh Hospital had more eccentric people than most people could imagine.
Zhang Dadao still remembers a patient who was discharged from the hospital more than a year ago. He was fine at ordinary times, but he would get sick every time it rained. After getting sick, he would immediately turn into a weather forecaster and predict the weather conditions for the next three days within a radius of ten miles. And it was extremely accurate, countless times more accurate than the weather forecast on TV. That guy could even predict the time when it would rain without any error.
Zhang Dadao even thought that Zhuge Liang's ability to borrow the east wind might be due to the same disease as this guy. He had also tried to learn this skill, but unfortunately the patient was unable to communicate after the disease, which made Zhang Dadao's plan fail.
In addition to this weather forecast expert, there is another expert who was discharged from the hospital this year. He is also a person who does not seem to have any problems on weekdays, but once there is thunder, he will immediately fall ill. After thunder, he will have severe hallucinations. It is said that he can see many monsters that eat people and then replace the original person.
After this guy had lived in the Seventh Hospital for more than a month, there was a thunderstorm. In his mouth, the Seventh Hospital was completely wiped out that day, and everyone was replaced by monsters. As a result, this guy's condition suddenly worsened, and he was subdued after injuring most of the nurses and doctors. Regardless of the fact that he was hysterical and refused to cooperate with treatment, he had to be transferred to another hospital.
These two patients would change under special weather conditions, but there were no such patients in the Seventh Hospital now. This also made Zhang Dadao feel a little boring.
"Species diversity has been destroyed!" Zhang Dadao thought as he finished his breakfast. Today, he did not even go to get the model tools. He just leaned against the window and looked at the Laohe Mountain, which was even fresher after the rain.
"What are you reading?" A voice suddenly came from the side. Zhang Dadao turned around and saw that it was the "writer". This guy was also a little strange. In the activity room of the Seventh Hospital, patients were usually very curious. But this guy was a special case. Zhang Dadao sometimes felt that except for his argument that was too crazy, this guy was not much different from a normal person.
"Look at the mountains!" Zhang Dadao answered simply.
"I find the mountains so charming, and I guess the mountains see me the same way. You are different from other patients." The "writer" said in a low voice.
"I think you are crazy, and I think you are crazy about me. We are all mentally ill, just say what you want to say, no need to be hypocritical like normal people!" Zhang Dadao was a little disdainful of the "writer"'s pretentious writing, and his voice was also a little frivolous. There were even a few professors from the Chinese Department of Zhejiang University in the Seventh Academy, and it was really not classy to talk about Duan Xinqiji.
The "writer" was also stunned, then shook his head, and said helplessly but with a bit of carefreeness: "You still don't believe me."
Zhang Dadao smiled and said, "What does it matter? Aren't you the protagonist? Anyway, you didn't mention me in your book, so what does it matter whether I believe it or not? Are you going to change the protagonist?" Zhang Dadao was a little disdainful and felt that the "writer" was seriously ill.
In the Seventh Hospital, there are several types of patients. One type thinks they are not sick at all and are no different from ordinary people. The representative is the "movie king". He has no idea about the Seventh Hospital and does not know that this is a mental hospital. He still lives his life like a play and relies entirely on his acting skills.
The other type is those who know they are ill and what the illness is. There are many such patients, such as the "failed students". The illnesses of these people vary in severity, but most of them are not a big problem. As long as they find the right method to face it positively and cooperate with the treatment, they can be discharged from the hospital soon.
There is another type of person who knows he has a problem but does not know where the real problem lies. A typical example is the "cameraman" who only thinks he has "depression" and "amnesia" and does not know that the problem is actually the split personality of "ET".
The last type is Zhang Dadao, who knows he is mentally ill and even calls himself a mentally ill person. But deep down, he doesn’t think he has any problems at all. It seems that “writers” are also of this type. This type of patient has a characteristic, they all think they are not sick, and other patients of the same type as themselves or even other normal people are the truly abnormal and do not know the truth!
Among these people, Zhang Dadao’s situation is better , as he does not think that normal people have problems. The “writer” seems to be more serious, as he thinks that everyone except him is ignorant of the truth.
Zhang Dadao originally thought that this "writer" was born with some special ability like the little mole, and could predict or even change the future. That's why he wanted to ask him for help, but after talking to him, he found out that this guy was actually possessed. Now that he heard him mention that crappy book, he couldn't help but feel even more annoyed.
The "writer" was also a little depressed after hearing what Zhang Dadao said. He nodded and changed the subject: "I originally thought that we were the same kind of people, but now I am a little uncertain. I thought that this time when I went to the hospital, you were a hidden character who changed my character setting, but it seems that I was wrong."
Zhang Dadao sneered, then said with a smile: "No, then no? I don't care about that. You live your life and I live mine. Don't bother me. Turn right, did you see that? Look at the affectionate eyes of the 'movie emperor'? Yes, that's him. Go find him. This guy probably thinks we are discussing the script. Even if you bring up the 'hidden rules', I think he will also offer his ass to you."
The "writer" smiled bitterly, turned his head and took a look, and was also frightened by the fiery eyes of the "movie actor". He turned around and left in a hurry, but turned left instead of right. Zhang Dadao smiled proudly and sighed: "Brine and tofu, one thing conquers another!"
After sending the "writer" away, Zhang Dadao looked at the scenery for a while. Just as he was about to find some books to supplement his knowledge, he was stopped by a young doctor who came in at the door: "Zhang Dadao, there is a visitor!"
Zhang Dadao immediately became excited, agreed, and went over happily. He thought to himself, "Wow, the 'failed student' is finally here. I thought I had to prepare some plans!"
The young doctor waited for Zhang Dadao to come over, looked at him strangely, squinted his eyes and asked, "I thought they were joking, but the feelings are real. There is actually a patient who came back to see you after being discharged from the hospital?"
Zhang Dadao shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "I'm fine, but Old Man Han is amazing!"
"Old man Han?" The young doctor asked in a somewhat strange tone, then shook his head and said nothing more. He just silently led Zhang Dadao out of the activity room, and then took Zhang Dadao downstairs to a reception room.
After entering the room, it turned out to be the "failed student". In addition to this guy, there was another boy of similar age. The doctor brought Zhang Dadao in, nodded, and left with the door closed. Before Zhang Dadao could speak, the boy who came with the "failed student" spoke to the "failed student" first: "Is this the teacher Zhang you mentioned? Well, he doesn't look even older than us! Do you really believe this guy? He's a psychopath!"
