Back to the Future 1999: Raining at the Same Time

It feels so uncomfortable... I am surrounded by a dark red.

My whole body was being assaulted by an unidentified pain or agony, and I had a horrible sensation, as if my entire body was dissolving.

Before coming into this world, I once drank with friends and tried to get drunk. That night, I fell on the bed and vomited for three hours.

Now, it's a hundred times worse than it was then.

My thoughts and vision were twisted as if by a major earthquake. Everything around me felt lighter than ever before, as if melting, and I was being peeled away from all my nerves bit by bit...

I thought I must be mentally ill, but I didn't feel the fear that my life was threatened.

Silence descends...

It's such an incredible feeling. I'm still conscious, but I don't seem to be alive.

I heard that after a caterpillar pupates, it will turn into a bag of thick liquid. Am I in the same state now?

Strange, wasn't I confronting Xu Hai...

What on earth is going on…

puff--

The sharp blade suddenly pierced into a "pupa" on the table. Ignoring its uncontrollable trembling, the man holding the knife slashed directly to the bottom.

The white "pupa" shrank instantly, and bright red juice gushed out like a waterfall, spreading in the dim laboratory.

As if it had consciousness, the broken cocoon shell kept trembling and gradually curled up.

However, the man holding the knife just licked the bloody tip of the knife excitedly, nailed it to the laboratory table, and watched it gradually lie flat again.

"what are you doing?"

Another woman came in and kicked the man away from the laboratory table. When she landed, her feet stepped into a pool of blood.

"Didn't I tell you this was an important experiment? Why are you being so rough?!"

However, contrary to her words, the woman raised her hand and roughly pulled the "pupa" out of the dagger nailed to the table and threw it on the ground.

"And this garbage? Hurry and throw it into the nutrient solution conversion dish. The culture medium for experiment number 7 is almost used up."

The man who was kicked away pulled his head out of the broken culture tank, and like a drunk, he staggered closer, picked up the pupa skin on the ground, and took a bite.

"Idiot! Who told you to eat it?"

Another kick, and the man was kicked out of the laboratory.

The laboratory door slammed shut and the woman turned to look inside the laboratory.

Bright red blood was still dripping from the laboratory table, and dim light shone through the jars filled with culture medium. The whole space was indescribably weird.

"Oh, really, I still have to clean up his mess."

With a wave of her hand, all the liquid that had just flowed out of the "pupa" flew towards her, circling around her in spirals.

"The 'chrysalis' on the World Tree, I wonder what kind of power this god has~"

She walked past the neatly arranged rows of culture tanks and casually sprinkled in a few drops of blood, more or less, depending on her mood.

"What kind of surprises will the 'child' I raise using these materials bring me~"

……

knock knock knock.

The rhythmic knocking sound suddenly pierced Xu Hai's mind. He struggled to sit up, feeling dizzy and uncomfortable.

This was a new feeling for him. It had been a long time since he had such a real sense of the outside world.

Suddenly, a feeling like being stabbed hard came from the abdomen, and then disappeared in an instant.

Xu Hai wiped the non-existent blood from the corner of his mouth, patted his stomach and said:

"It seems like it has begun, the beginning of our story~"

knock knock knock.

Before he could linger in this thought for a moment longer, the knock on the door came more urgently than before, as if urging him to do so.

"coming!"

Xu Hai agreed impatiently and pushed the door open with an unhappy look on his face.

"Who!"

However, when I opened the door, I was greeted by a simple and rough smiling face.

"Hey! Doctor, you're up!"

The honest farmer grabbed Xu Hai's hand and waved it up and down heroically.

"Thank you so much, doctor! Thanks to your medicine, my wife's illness was cured. Thank you so much, doctor!"

The person who came to express his gratitude didn't know how to express his gratitude accurately, so he handed a bag that he had been carrying on his shoulder to Xu Hai.

"These are some vegetables I grew myself. Please accept them if you don't mind!"

He staggered because of the dish that was suddenly handed to him. When Xu Hai looked up again, the man in front of him had already walked away.

He left in a hurry, just as he left in a hurry, leaving Xu Hai alone standing there in a daze.

That’s right, the body that Xu Hai traveled through was the witch doctor who was resurrected by Chen Xi before.

After being resurrected and his emotional knot was untied, he began to actively get along with the villagers, and with his superb pharmaceutical skills, he quickly became one of the villagers.

And now, he has been possessed by Xu Hai.

"But this appearance..."

Xu Hai touched his face, seeming not very satisfied.

After shaking his head slightly, Xu Hai transformed his body into his own appearance.

"It's still so comfortable."

After saying that, he waved his hand and razed the witch doctor's house behind him to the ground.

"I won't be coming back anyway, so there's no need for this place to exist."

Humming a tune, Xu Hai slowly walked onto the country road, and then stopped in front of a small house at the entrance of the village.

Knocked lightly on the door.

"Who!"

An old but vigorous voice came from inside, but Xu Hai did not respond, but continued to knock on the door.

"Tell me if it's a human or a ghost!"

But Xu Hai still didn't say anything, but the smile on his face became even wider.

There was a click inside the house, like the sound of a rifle being loaded, followed by the sound of footsteps rushing towards the door.

"Damn it! I want to see who it is. They come here in broad daylight to tease an old man like me."

With a bang, the door panel slammed against the wall before it could even let out a groan of pain.

"Hi……"

However, before he could utter the next word, Xu Hai was hit in the face by a pair of black gun muzzles.

"What? It's you, young man! Hahaha."

The hearty laughter immediately dispelled all misunderstandings. The old man put away the gun and put his arm around Xu Hai's shoulders.

"You little brat, if it's your turn, why don't you just say something? Look at what you've done.

Are you here to see me, an old man, now that you have finished your work?"

He still pulled Xu Hai into the house with a big laugh, and didn't pay any more attention to the young man throughout the whole process.

After all, there was only a narrowed smile on his face.

After entering the house, the old man hung the hunting rifle on the wall again, bowed twice, and then led Xu Hai to the bed and set up a small table and chairs.

Just like that night.

"Why did you dye your hair? You look much more energetic."

After placing two small cups again, the old man took out his own grain wine from under the bed.

The old man treated the young man in front of him as his own child.

Although the two had known each other for a short time, only one night, he still fell uncontrollably in love with the lovely child.

As a village guardian, most of the children in the village were unwilling to get close to him because of his fierce temper, and his only son left here to live in a big city on his 20th birthday. There has been no news of him for ten years.

Then that night, the moment he opened the door, the old man looked at Chen Xi who was standing timidly at the door, as if he saw his own child when he was a child. At that time, an indescribable joy filled the old man's heart.

He unscrewed the lid of the wine jug and was about to fill the two cups, but Xu Hai reached out and stopped the old man.

"Old man, let's drink this. After all, I promised you that when I come back, I will bring you some good wine."

The old man was obviously stunned after hearing Xu Hai's words, but then he laughed heartily, as if something very good had happened that was worth being happy about.

"Okay, okay, okay. Drink the good wine, the wine you brought."

After saying "good" three times in a row, the old man felt indescribably happy. This feeling was even happier than when the whole village came to visit and give blessings during the holidays!

The clear white wine gradually filled the two glasses, and the people on both sides of the table raised their glasses at the same time and drank them all.

"what!"

The old man knocked his wine glass on the table happily, and his face turned red after drinking one glass.

"You must be quite drunk. It's only one glass, and I... I'm already feeling drunk."

He poured himself another glass, and when he raised it again, the world in his eyes began to distort and spin.

"Speaking of which, young man..."

The old man's waist was getting more and more bent, almost lying on the table, but the hand holding the wine glass was still raised high, never putting it down.

"You...what's your name?"

"Old man."

Xu Hai put down the empty wine glass in his hand and closed the old man's eyes, but did not change the smile on his lips.

"My name is Xu Hai."

In a blink of an eye, Xu Hai, wearing a black robe, stood at the entrance of the village, looking at the village with flames rising to the sky, and said lightly:

"Sure enough, there's still not one."

As he spoke, he put on the hood of his robe and walked away step by step.

Not long after he left, a little girl with white hair and green eyes quietly emerged from a forest next to the village, hiding weakly behind a tree.

“So…so scary.”
