I'm trapped in a cube

Outside the valley, Xi stood in the heavy rain, looking at the devastated Red Spirit Flower Valley, feeling increasingly guilty.

This dry land cannot be saved by a heavy rain.

It only takes one drought to turn a beautiful sea of ​​flowers into a wasteland, but it takes more than just one rain to make the wasteland grow lush vegetation.

"Wait for me." Xi looked at the dead land and said.

He will definitely come back and restore Baihua Island to its original state, but now, there are more important things.

"Come with me, I know a hidden route that can quickly reach the central island..."

"good."

…

The route chosen by Xi was indeed different from the best route Li Luo saw on the map. He did not choose to go through Baihua Island and come to the next island. Instead, he found a mountain range and found an imperceptible gap between the mountains. cave.

"Go from here."

Xi's light group illuminated the dark cave. It seemed to be a stalactite cave, with broken stalactites everywhere. The long-lost heavy rain brought new moisture, which dripped down from the rock wall.

"It should be possible to pass through this cave before the underground river is re-formed."

Xi led Li Luo into the cave while introducing her to this shortcut.

There was originally a turbulent underground river inside this cave. Because Baihua Island has abundant rainwater, the water source of this underground river is very sufficient. Normally, the underground river here should be overflowing and impassable at all.

This underground river will flow all the way to the lower half of Baihua Island, then pass through a waterfall and flow to another empty island.

However, due to the long-term drought on Baihua Island, this underground river has dried up, leaving only the original river channel. Through this river channel, you can quickly reach the next empty island.

Therefore, this road is not shown on Li Luo's map. Only the healers who are natives of the Metamorphosis Islands know this road.

"In the past, when there was an emergency, we would take a boat and go through the cave, but now there is no need for a boat."

The water droplets in the rock wall flowed down. At this time, there was a small stream in the river. The stalactites at the top of the cave kept dripping water, hitting the dry river.

"The river here was very ferocious at that time. Even if we were on a boat, we would often get injured. But injuries were a very simple matter for us. We just needed to be healed in time."

While walking, some wooden wreckage appeared in the river. These should be the boats that Xi was talking about, but these boats could no longer see their original appearance at all, and they were all turned into pieces.

Not only that, walking deeper, Li Luo also found some broken bones on both sides of the river.

"Those are the bones of doctors." Xi explained: "Our bodies are very fragile. When we pass here, we often hit the rock wall, causing our limbs to be broken."

"like this……"

As Xi said that, he broke off his thin left hand with force.

"Because the river water is fierce, the broken limbs will be washed away directly. In that case, we have no way to recover the limbs."

Xi casually threw his left hand to the riverside.

"We can only wait until we pass through the river to heal it. Anyway, it's just a hand or a foot. It's not a fatal wound."

As he spoke, Xina's broken left hand grew back again, apparently because he used his healing power on himself.

However, this was an understatement in Xi's eyes, but to Li Luo, it was like a horror movie, very scary.

Li Luo was stunned on the spot, standing there and looking at Xi's left hand.

"What's wrong?" Xi asked with some confusion.

"Don't you feel any pain?" Li Luo was very curious.

"Of course it will hurt. Doctors are also living creatures. Our body structure is very similar to that of humans. We are almost identical except for the head. The pain we feel is also similar to yours." Xi explained seriously.

"But..." Li Luo pointed to Xi's left arm: "Didn't you just... break it off?"

Xi suddenly realized what Li Luo meant.

"This... of course we will also feel pain, it's just because we are used to it."

"You know, we are doctors and we often do experiments on ourselves. Only by experiencing diseases and injuries personally can we understand what patients are going through and better understand the causes. Over time, we will become more numb to pain. "The pain of losing a limb is not very severe for us."

"After the pain exceeds a certain threshold, the nerves will become numb and will no longer transmit pain signals, so it is more of a psychological effect."

"Compared with the momentary pain, those chronic diseases are more painful, slowly tormenting the patients and making them worse than death."

When it comes to talking about diseases and pain, Xi seems to open up a chat box. As a doctor, he keeps talking about the pain caused by various diseases.

"I have learned about the human medical system. Humans have a disease called trigeminal neuralgia. Have you heard of it?"

“During the onset of the disease, severe pain will spread from a certain point on the face, mouth or jaw, and spread to one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve. Unprovoked severe pain will occur in the distribution area of ​​the trigeminal nerve on the head and face, making the patient miserable... "

"It is a neurological disease that does not actually have an exact wound, but the pain is more terrifying than any disease with a wound, leaving the patient in constant pain and fear that would be worse than death."

"Pure pain..." The light ball above Xi's head trembled slightly: "Diseases can bring pain, but pain itself is also a disease."

"The reason why human nerves transmit the feeling of pain is to remind humans of the existence of diseases, but diseases take advantage of this in turn, making nerves sick, giving humans the purest pain and the most extreme harm."

"Don't you think this is terrible?" Xi stopped and said to Li Luo.

Li Luo nodded. It was indeed terrible. She touched her face. Listening to Xi's mumbling, her face began to hurt.

After getting a response, Xi began to chatter again. He had been sleeping for too long and finally found someone to talk to. Moreover, Li Luo was not as ignorant as those red spirit flowers. He obviously didn't want to waste this opportunity.

"The Council of Elders and the entire group of doctors have been exploring a question-what is disease?"

"Because our ability comes from the definition of disease, we think what is a disease, and we can cure what we think is a disease, even some very outrageous things."

As Xi spoke, he picked up a piece of stalactite from the ground.

"I think this stone shouldn't be a stalactite. It's sick. It should actually be a piece of gold."

As Xi spoke, the surface of the stalactite fragments began to flash with golden light.

"Did you see it?"

Xi handed the gold in his hand to Li Luo.

"Isn't it... outrageous?"
