From Swamp Dog to Crocodile Ancestor

It's noon again.

The sunlight became quite intense, shining on Li Yi's face. Li Yi, however, seemed to enjoy the feeling, squinting his eyes and lying quietly.

Three more days passed, and Li Yueyou came to see him every day, saying the same things and feeding him his medicine.

But none of them seemed to have any effect.

Li Yi's perception of himself became clearer and clearer. It was as if there was a giant millstone inside his body, crushing everything that wanted to harm him.

Although some things remain, they are insignificant and no longer able to harm me.

More and more memories are emerging; I am awakening, and nothing can stop me anymore.

The ward door opened, and Li Yueyou reappeared there, her face cold and beautiful, yet gazing at him with a sorrowful look.

A man followed her here; he turned out to be a foreigner, young and handsome with a perfect physique, the outline of his muscles faintly visible through his shirt.

Then Li Yueyou said calmly:

"Li Yi, I told you I wouldn't give up on curing you, but... our relationship may have to end here."

As she spoke, she turned to look at the foreigner. "This is William. He has been pursuing me for several years, but I rejected him because of you."

"But do you know what? I really can't take it anymore. You've been sick for three years now. What will happen in three years?"

"I don't see any signs of improvement in you. You're still stubbornly believing in things that don't exist, things you've just imagined."

"You even disregarded me."

Li Yueyou looked completely heartbroken, and tears welled up in her eyes again.

Li Yi calmly observed the two of them, then suddenly said in a low voice:

"Actually, you don't understand me at all. You have no idea how powerful I really am."

"You're still fantasizing," Li Yueyou said indifferently.

The next moment, the restraints on Li Yi's body burst into a bright white flame and were burned to ashes in an instant.

Several eyeballs writhed violently in the flames before vanishing in an instant.

Li Yi slowly floated up, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyeballs had turned completely white, radiating a deathly light.

A terrifying sense of aggression arose spontaneously, as if from instinct.

The room began to shake slightly.

"you……"

Li Yueyou's expression changed instantly, and she pleaded, "Don't do this, I won't upset you anymore, William and I..."

The blond man named William also looked terrified and hurriedly made his way slowly toward the door, as if preparing to escape.

Li Yi, who was suspended in mid-air, only glanced at him, and he spontaneously combusted, turning into a pale white torch.

Within a few breaths, a pool of ash appeared on the ground.

Then, Li Yi turned to look at Li Yueyou and said with interest, "Although I'm still not sure who I am, this seems enough to prove that I'm not delusional, right?"

Li Yueyou's face seemed to freeze, becoming strange and mechanical, perhaps because she was terrified.

"I want to watch TV."

But the next moment, Li Yi suddenly sat on the bed and casually said this sentence.

"There's no TV here, please don't do this, okay?"

Li Yueyou ignored his words and continued to plead.

"I feel like you're not human either, are you a crocodile or something?" Li Yi said seriously after scrutinizing her for a while.

At this moment, the ruler here has changed, and Li Yueyou is completely helpless, while Li Yi looks at the snow-white wall in front of him with great interest.

The next moment, a black television appeared, and with a sizzling sound, the screen emitted a blue light.

A few seconds later, a TV shopping program appeared in front of Li Yi, with a male and female host promoting health products for the elderly in an enthusiastic tone.

"This doesn't look good."

The thought popped into Li Yi's head, and he immediately changed the TV channel.

This time it turned into an animated film that was playing in progress. Li Yi stroked his chin and continued watching with great interest.

After watching for only a few minutes, Li Yi got bored and changed the channel.

As various television programs flashed by, the bewilderment reappeared in Li Yinasen's white eyes.

He was searching for something; his subconscious told him that the answer he needed was here.

"Crocodiles are a biological evolutionary miracle; they have lived for over 2 million years and have remained largely unchanged..."

This time it's an animal documentary. A crocodile covered in yellowish-green scales appears in a murky river, revealing its head and two brownish-yellow eyes, swimming slowly and steadily.

Seeing this, Li Yi became serious.

Li Yueyou, unable to resist, lowered her head, concealing her expression, and continued to plead mechanically.

"...Not only that, crocodiles also possess the world's most powerful immune system, which can kill almost all viruses and bacteria that are extremely deadly to humans."

"This is just as easy as their daily routine."

……

Li Yi nodded, seemingly agreeing wholeheartedly.

After changing a few more channels, Li Yi looked at it carefully again.

"In ancient mythology, Pangu separated heaven and earth from chaos with a giant axe, thus dividing the world into two, one pure and one impure..."

A man dressed as a Taoist priest appeared on the television screen and said:

"After chaos came Yin and Yang, the separation of pure and turbid Qi. Pure Qi became Heaven, and turbid Qi sank to become Earth. Only then did the Four Symbols, the Eight Trigrams, and everything else evolve..."

At this moment, Li Yueyou finally changed. She suddenly hugged Li Yi tightly, crying and sobbing.

Feeling this body and face that was the most perfect in his dreams, Li Yi suddenly felt a possessive desire in his confusion.

The television was turned off, and a vivid and lively scene was unfolding.

After a long while, with a bang, the door to the ward was broken, and wood chips were scattered all over the floor.

Several policemen walked in from outside, their dark gun barrels pointed at Li Yi. The leader, with a righteous expression, said:

"Li Yi, you did something you shouldn't have done. You set Mr. William's clothes on fire and then did this to your attending physician."

"Even though you are a mental patient, we still need to control you and assess whether you were truly unable to control yourself when you did these things."

"Please cooperate now."

Suddenly, William, who had been burned to ashes, reappeared outside the door, looking at Li Yi with resentment.

His once dazzling blond hair had been burned into a bald bird's nest, with the top of his head exposed, and he was now making an agitated accusation.

Li Yi and Li Yueyou exchanged glances, then Li Yi suddenly laughed and said, "Look, there's a loophole in this world. This isn't real."

"Then who am I, really?"
