Chapter 122: The Winding Path Leads to Secludedness
Lu Zhijie's family of three sat around the table outside the bustling coffee shop, looking at the colorful menu at a loss, not knowing what it was, and not knowing how to order it, so they had to order a drink recommended by the waiter, plus a Xue Meiniang, they didn't know what it was, but Lu Huanhuan was very curious about this good-sounding name, and the things recommended by drawing five stars were delicious or not.
How could there be a cat here! Lu Zhijie looked at the square where people came and went, and originally made such a reasonable judgment. But as soon as he sat down in the coffee shop, he saw a big orange fat cat in the shop, a black cat squatting in front of the small jewelry store next door, a three-flowered cat hidden in a tree on the edge of the square, and several stray cats foraging for food on the beach in the distance.
It was very surprising that there were so many cats in this square, but which one was he looking for?
Lao Zhan said this mysteriously, and there was no accurate word, just let him wait, when the cat appeared, he would know, what he said was very mysterious, and there was no statute that could be practiced at all.
Such a mysterious thing, I don't know how Lao Zhan encountered it, Lao Zhan was originally a person who didn't believe in metaphysics, and he had always stayed away from ghosts and gods, why did he recommend it to himself, Lu Zhijie also wanted to find out in his heart.
After they had drunk their first drink and eaten their first plate of dessert, they were still ready to change their tastes, and when they had another round, he really saw the cat.
It should be said that Lu Huanhuan saw the cat, and she pointed to the middle of the square: "Mom and Dad, look, there is a beautiful cat in the middle of the square." ”
More mysterious things happened, the first time Lu Zhijie saw the cat, he knew that this was the cat that Lao Zhan asked him to find, not so much that this was a cat, but that it was another more powerful creature living in the body of this cat, which could not be explained, just like Lao Zhan said, when he saw it, he knew it.
The cat and Lu Zhijie looked at each other, Lu Zhijie immediately understood what it meant, not only Lu Zhijie understood, Lu Huanhuan and Wang Nana also stood up, they didn't speak, they didn't communicate, the whole family quietly followed the beautiful cat.
They didn't ask each other why they left, but they all followed the cat, and Lu Zhijie recalled that he had kept this memory for a short time, and felt that they were all manipulated by the cat at that time, so they all left.
It was a very beautiful cat, a species they had never seen before, as beautiful as a fairy, with blue and green eyes as clear as crystal, but its sharp eyes seemed to penetrate their bodies and communicate with their souls, and there was no hidden sympathy and pity in its eyes.
Lu Zhijie finally knew what Lao Zhan meant, Lao Zhan didn't deliberately be vague and pretended to be mysterious, but he really didn't know what to say or how to find it, after all, it was the cat that came to him.
They followed the cat through the row of houses, all kinds of storefronts were dazzling, Lu Huanhuan was not in the mood to look at it, she was very curious, where the cat was going to take them. There are few domestic cats in Mapopo, but there are many wild cats in the mountains, but they are all wild and unapproachable. Especially such a good-looking cat, I have never seen it before.
No matter what Lu Huanhuan said, she is just a young girl, after all, it is still her nature at her age to love beauty, and she has not been wiped out by the monotonous scenery in the mountains, so it is understandable that she can't put down this beautiful cat.
Wang Nana looked at her cat and was fascinated, gently took her hand, the most should pay attention to the beautiful hand, now it is full of chapped, the yellow and black traces of years of labor in the nails can not be washed off, the roughness and dead skin on the hands stung Wang Nana's hands and heart, soured her nose and eyes.
Lu Zhijie followed the cat in front, Lu Huanhuan and his mother walked behind, and a family of three followed the cat and turned into a small alley that suddenly appeared.
Now there was a faint entrance to the alley on this wall, and it seemed that no one other than the three of them had noticed that there was a dark entrance here. What's even more bizarre is that they followed the cat slowly into the alley, and it didn't attract anyone's attention, as if there were so many tourists, and no one would notice one more or less.
But as soon as I entered the alley, I felt very dark and silent, and the hustle and bustle behind me seemed to be cut off. There is no kind of wall that can achieve such an effect, Lu Zhijie is a little confused and a little suspicious, but as long as the family is together, what does it matter, even if the end of this road is Huangquan.
The cat walked forward slowly, looking back from time to time to see if they had lost it, to say that this cat was not weird, Lu Zhijie refused to believe it.
And this alley is also very strange, it seems to be patchwork, there are all kinds of architectural styles, where is there such a place in Linhai, Lu Zhijie muttered to himself.
Lu Huanhuan's mother and daughter didn't find so much, Wang Nana led Lu Huanhuan, just like they went to the street fifteen years ago, following behind and concentrating on moving forward, the only difference is that Wang Nana will never let go of her daughter's hand again.
Everything is silent, as if the world behind them is divided by this alley, two worlds inside and outside the wall.
The cat led all the way, and the end of the winding alley was not Huangquan, but a small shop, on which hung a half-curtain with a large medicinal word circle, and it was written on the curtain upright.
It turned out to be a pharmacy, Lu Zhijie muttered a little, what the hell is Lao Zhan doing with this guy, mysteriously find a pharmacy for him? Just hesitated slightly, Lu Zhijie hurriedly followed the cat in, Lao Zhan at least will not lie to him, nor will he pit him, let's see what kind of medicine this pharmacy sells.
Lu Huanhuan's mother and daughter followed closely and also opened the curtain and walked into the pharmacy.
If the alley is quiet and silent, then the whole time seems to be still, and even in the air, you can't see the sunlight shining through the cracks, let alone the dust dancing in the normally visible sunlight.
It's bright, but there's no sunlight, no lights.
There was no medicine in the store, neither the counters of Western-style pharmacies filled with dazzling boxes nor the hundreds of drawers of Chinese pharmacies filled with herbs, there was nothing here except a simple counter with a female doll as pale as a chrysanthemum and a cat beside the female doll.
