Ming Chuan looked down at Maruko's suffocated little red face, and reached out to hold her head and rubbed it vigorously in amusement. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Maruko glared at him dissatisfied, but this time he didn't slap his hand away.

"Have you gotten bigger?" asked Ming Chuan, a little uncertain.

"What?" Maruko was a little puzzled.

"It looks a little bigger than when I saw it before. "Maruko looks like she's about twelve or thirteen years old now, a few years older than when I first saw her transform into a human form.

"I'm going to grow up, of course I'm going to get bigger. Maruko said as a matter of course.

Ming Chuan nodded when he heard this, and said in his heart, kittens should grow faster than humans, so they grow faster than normal children after changing into human form.

After figuring this out, Ming Chuan put aside the issue of Maruko's age.

"Speaking of which, haven't the wild cats in the old city noticed anything strange over there?" Ming Chuan was a little puzzled, it stands to reason that those wild cats and wild dogs are the animals that are most familiar with a place, and they don't even know those wild cats?

"yes, they say, there's a lot to do in the old town. I don't know what the odd place is. Maruko replied.

"Is it a fun place?" Ming Chuan sighed, and said in his heart that he was really brain-pumping, how could he think that cats and humans had the same thinking? Even if they could turn into human form, cats were cats after all.

In their eyes, something strange is completely different from what humans find strange.

"Let's go. Ming Chuan turned around and walked towards the outside of the community.

"What are you doing?" Maruko asked, confused.

"Take you to buy canned fish. Ming Chuan said as he walked, "Although you didn't help, but since I promised you, I won't worry too much about a cat." ”

"Huh, really?" When Maruko heard this, he suddenly came to his senses and happily followed behind Ming Chuan.

Ming Chuan led the balls to the nearby convenience supermarket, picked out two cans of the cheapest canned fish, and then, according to the list he made before, he found some tools that could be used in the cave, and said to the balls with half-squinted eyes at the checkout: "When you finish my affairs next time, I will invite you to eat high-end food." ”

Maruko pouted, although he was a little dissatisfied with the two boxes of canned food that Ming Chuan picked, he still accepted it without any opinion.

"Remember to buy cod next time!" Maruko said, pouting.

After sending the pills away, Ming Chuan found a nearby clinic, removed the bandages on his body, and treated the wounds that had not yet fully healed, and then returned to his residence.

……

Early the next morning, Mingchuan came to the old city again and met Pan Shi.

"My uncle has a strange temper, you can take care of it when we meet. Pan Shi was on crutches and limped ahead to lead the way.

"I've seen even the weirdest people. Ming Chuan half-squinted and said, "Your feet don't matter, right?"

"It's okay, it's just that I can't use force for the time being. Pan Shi said nonchalantly, "For me, getting injured in fights is commonplace, and it's nothing at all." ”

The two chatted and walked, and on the way Pan Shi stopped to buy some braised vegetables, and the two came to the door of Pan Shi's uncle's house with two pig's trotters, a pound of duck head and a small bag of peanuts.

Pan Shi's uncle's surname is Liang, and he was called Xiao Liang when he was young, but now that he is older, he has changed to Lao Liang. Not more than fifty years old, but looks a little older than his actual age. The figure is stocky, and he looks like he is good, but he is sloppy, his hair is messy like a bird's nest, and the clothes on his body look like they have not been washed for several days, they are wrinkled, and the cuffs are full of oil. The pants were dirty, barely colorable, and the shoes were covered in mud.

When he heard the knock on the door and opened the door, Lao Liang's tone was very impulsive, even if he saw his nephew, he didn't have a good face, but when he saw the braised vegetables in their hands, he immediately smiled.

"You kid hasn't come to see your second uncle for so long, don't you want to get mixed up?" Lao Liang said to Pan Shi with a smile while taking the two pig's trotters.

"Come on, isn't it true that no one has been looking for you to drink lately, and it has suffocated you?" Pan Shi was obviously used to being casual in front of his second uncle, and walked into the house sarcastically with the other party without care.

Ming Chuan saw that no one cared about him, so he silently followed behind and walked into the room.

The house looks old, and the interior is still in the style of more than 20 years ago, with old-fashioned cabinets on one side of the living room and a large wooden round table in the middle. A few square benches are placed haphazardly, and this year's wall calendar hangs on the wall.

"You kid has a good mouth, my old comrade-in-arms just brought me a bottle of burning knives from the north, and let you catch up. Lao Liang said and took a bottle of wine and a few dishes from the kitchen, put them on the table, patted Pan Shi on the shoulder and said, "If you don't get drunk today, you won't return." ”

Pan Shi glanced at Ming Chuan, and saw that the expression on his face was lazy, half-squinting and looking like he was about to fall asleep, and he was not frightened by the high wine that his second uncle took out, so he had a plan in his heart, and made a brief introduction to the two of them with a smile.

Lao Liang is the kind of person who treats the other party as a brother as long as he is willing to drink with him, and he doesn't care whether the other party is round or flat, or what he does. At the moment, he called Mingchuan a brother, and regardless of whether this person was brought by his nephew, he should be regarded as his junior.

After a while, Lao Liang copied two more plates of vegetarian dishes, and the three of them sat on the square bench around the round table to eat and drink.

Mingchuan has a good amount of alcohol, and there is no problem with drinking a bottle of liquor, even if it is a strong liquor like burning knives. It's just that it's not very good, I rarely drink it, and I don't look like I can drink.

Because he was not very familiar with Mingchuan, and because he knew his second uncle, Pan Shi also helped Mingchuan block Lao Liang at first, but later saw that his face remained unchanged after two cups, so he let go of the amount and drank with Mingchuan.

After a few cups of yellow soup, the three of them chatted more and more. Not only Lao Liang, but even Pan Shi's mood was a little high.

Ming Chuan remained sober from beginning to end, he found that although this old Liang was good at drinking, in fact, the amount of alcohol was not very good, he only drank two glasses, and he had a big tongue when he spoke, and he talked more.

Seeing that the momentum was almost over, Ming Chuan glanced at Pan Shi.

Pan Shi was not drunk and remembered the purpose of their trip. At this time, I got Mingchuan's hint, how could there be no clear reason, and I interrupted Lao Liang's boasting at the moment, and said with a smile: "Second uncle, don't mention your adult past, people don't believe it if you talk too much, what's the point of talking about it?"

Lao Liang was not happy when he heard this, his eyes were glazed, and he burped, and said, "Who doesn't believe it? I'll talk to him." ”

"Don't say anything else, as far as you say about digging rivers, I feel strange when I hear it, who will believe those who don't know you?" Pan Shi smiled and grabbed a duck's head and gnawed it, and said in a casual tone. (To be continued.) )
