Chapter 219: Xiaoqiang

The same night, the same time period, feels different for different people.

For Pang Yan and Qing Jue, this night was long and torturous, with waves of unsettled waves.

For Wang Xiangshun, this night was full of anger, and the decent he originally thought that he had met a confidante, but in the end they parted ways in such a bad way.

For Han Fan, this night is worth celebrating and carnivaling, because he has finally successfully completed himself, and it is also the first punishment task of the life-changing game.

Although, he could not have predicted what this mission would mean to him at all.

For most others, it's just an ordinary night.

For example, Mu Zixu.

As always, I stayed up all night, as always, I was disturbed by the sound of the rumbling geological exploration, as always, I had insomnia, and as always, I flirted with Meiyu until the early hours of the morning and then fell asleep.

If I had to say that this night was different from usual, it was that his insomnia this night was not painful, but spent in excitement and pride.

Because......

Although he didn't sleep much all night, just after the alarm clock at seven o'clock the next morning, Mu Zixu suddenly jumped out of bed, and quickly dressed, washed his face, brushed his teeth and shaved his beard.

Then go downstairs at the speed of a 100-meter sprint and buy a double breakfast.

At half past seven, he was already standing in front of Meiyu's house refreshed, reaching out to ring the doorbell.

After waiting for three or four minutes, Meiyu opened the door sleepily.

"Is there any mistake...... Wake up so early? Meiyu grumbled.

At this moment, she was wearing pink pajamas, barefoot, long hair messy, yawning, obviously just woken up from her sleep by the ringing of the doorbell.

"Aren't you going to grandma's house? I bought breakfast and after eating we set off? Mu Zixu entered the door and raised the breakfast he was carrying as he spoke.

"Please...... The earliest bus is at 9:30 o'clock, is it good...... It would take us fifteen minutes to walk to the station, right? Why don't you sleep more? Didn't the sound of the cannon last night make you lose sleep? Meiyu yawned and complained, obviously feeling upset that Mu Zixu had disturbed her dreams.

"I know, but the first time I go to my grandmother's house, I have to prepare and buy something."

Mu Zixu said casually and put breakfast on the table.

"What is there to prepare...... You sit down for a while, and I'll wash up. ”

Meiyu said lazily, and reluctantly walked into the bathroom.

Looking at her back with messy hair, and her bare white feet, she suddenly remembered that every time she came to visit the door in the past, no matter what time it was, Meiyu always had to change her clothes and put on slippers before opening the door.

She has always been a person who pays special attention to appearance and image, and often criticizes herself for being unkempt, saying that tidying herself up is also a sign of respect for the other party.

But when did she forget when and when did she start to open the door for herself with her bare feet in her pajamas.

This proves from a great distance that the distance between himself and her is really much closer than before.

Mu Zixu was secretly excited and excited that he had discovered this detail.

As a writer, he is a very sensitive and emotional person, and he is best at discovering the details that are difficult for ordinary people to detect, and then, based on these details, he speculates and analyzes the psychology, habits, intentions, needs, and so on of the other party.

And this is also one of the most critical factors that Hei Wuchang valued him the most at the beginning......

Ten minutes later, the two of them opened the lunch box and began to eat breakfast face to face.

Different from the simple improvised when I eat by myself on weekdays, the breakfast that Mu Zixu bought today is particularly hearty, and he also pays attention to nutritional matching, and he bought three kinds of soy milk alone.

"Do you have the tools ready?" Meiyu asked.

"Tools?" Mu Zixu bites into the soy milk straw.

"It's a tool to catch cockroaches, isn't the main task of our going to grandma's house this time to catch Xiaoqiang?" Meiyu asked.

"I've got a plan." Mu Zixu's face was full of pride, with an expression of selling Guanzi.

"You must be talking about cockroach traps, right?" Meiyu said disdainfully. "I checked it last night, and it was less than three yuan a piece on Alibaba!"

"Cut, catch a little strong, and still need to buy tools? And even if you order it online, you won't be able to get it for a while. Mu Zixu was even more proud, "Anyway, don't worry, my artifact is more powerful than the one I bought online." ”

"What are you selling...... "Meiyu was full of disdain." Also, where do you put it when you catch it? How do you bring it back? ”

"That's it!" Mu Zixu shook the cup-shaped soybean milk box in his hand, "Wouldn't it be nice to finish drinking it and make a few small holes in the lid?" As he spoke, he opened the lid of the empty soy milk box: "Can you imagine hundreds of cute elves fighting in a group inside?" ”

It turns out that Meiyu's associative ability is still good.

Because since Mu Zixu said this, she hasn't eaten a bite of anything, and she hasn't even touched soy milk.

And the even more tragic result was that Mu Zixu was under the coercion of Meiyu's "comminuted fracture", and he had no choice but to drink three portions, a total of six cups of soy milk, and almost broke his stomach.

After eating, Mu Zixu and Meiyu bought some gifts and got on the bus to their grandmother's house.

Their main task this time is to catch cockroaches.

Of course, it's not because there are so many cockroaches in my grandmother's house, but because ......

Prepare for Mu Zixu's "eavesdropping".

When Mu Zixu said that he wanted to use cockroaches to prepare for eavesdropping, Meiyu immediately remembered that there were cockroaches in her grandmother's house, and there were so many of them that she couldn't be wiped out no matter how they were destroyed, and she couldn't be disturbed, and she missed her grandmother a lot after the Chinese New Year, so she could go to her grandmother's house for both public and private purposes.

Of course, Mu Zixu couldn't ask for this, so he had today's trip to his grandmother's house.

Mu Zixu deliberately shaved his beard cleanly this time, combed his hair meticulously, polished his leather shoes spotlessly, and specially selected the most expensive and good-looking clothes.

Although the main task of him and Meiyu going to Grandma's house this time is to catch cockroaches, after all, this is the first time to officially visit Meiyu's relatives, and they will have to stay at Grandma's house for two nights, and Grandma should easily figure out the relationship between them. 、

Therefore, he must take care of himself very formally and mentally, Meiyu said that he was stinky and beautiful, and he just used her original words to ridicule him - saying that this was a sign of respect for his grandmother.

Grandma was extremely happy with their arrival, and she was enthusiastic and loving to Mu Zixu.

Obviously, although Meiyu repeatedly emphasized that Mu Zixu was just an ordinary friend, a neighbor, and this time he came to catch cockroaches and take them back for biological research, but the old man was sharp-eyed, how could he be so easy to deceive, not to mention that when she was sick and lived in Meiyu last time, she had already understood the relationship between the young man.

For the arrival of the two, my grandmother had already gone to the nearby market to buy a lot of fruits and vegetables, as well as snacks, and changed her tricks to let Mu Zixu eat, and for a while Mu Zixu felt that she was the happiest person in the world.

When they arrived at Grandma's house, it was half past one in the afternoon, and they chatted and played until they finished eating, and Mu Zixu didn't show his cockroach catching artifact, he just walked around the kitchen a few times, as if he was observing the location of cockroaches or something.

"What the hell is your cockroach catching artifact? It's been a long time, and it's time to make an appearance, right? Meiyu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Isn't this one handy? Watch me make a few for you in five minutes. Mu Zixu's face was full of pride. As he spoke, he turned around and asked his grandmother, are there any wood, saws, hammers, and nails in the house?

These things are essential for every family, and they were brought soon, Meiyu was very curious, and asked Don't you want to catch cockroaches, what are you doing with these tools? This is obviously the rhythm of carpentry.

Mu Zixu didn't explain, and began to do it, and now sawed the wood into cubes of wood the size of a shoebox.

Then, a hammer and nails are used to drill small holes in the wood, each about ten millimeters in diameter and about seven or eight centimeters deep.

Then he and his grandmother asked for brown sugar, sesame oil, and a little cooked flour, stirred them into a paste, and stuffed them into the small holes with a toothpick.

"My homemade cockroach catching artifact is complete." Mu Zixu put the wooden block on the ground and said proudly, "Put it under the vegetable sink before going to bed at night, and we will be able to catch Xiaoqiang tomorrow morning." ”

"This ...... It's as simple as that?" Meiyu is a little incredible, and grandma is also suspicious.

"Won't you find out tomorrow?" Mu Zixu looked confident.

Then, he said that he would make a few more artifacts so that he could catch as many cockroaches as possible.

Grandma called Meiyu out and asked her to help make the bed and clean up the bedroom.

The door of the bedroom was not closed tightly, and Mu Zixu was working while listening to the conversation between Meiyu and his grandmother in the bedroom.

"Xiaoyu, how do you sleep at night, you ......"

"Of course it's me who sleeps in the bed, and the wood who has the sofa! Otherwise, I'll sleep in the same room with you, and let the wood be here on his own. ”

"Okay...... Xiaoyu, you can do whatever you like, don't feel embarrassed just because grandma is old, I understand, now you young people are open......"

"Oh, grandma, what are you talking about...... They all said that we are just ordinary friends, neighbors...... That's it, I'll sleep here, let the wood go to the living room to sleep on the sofa, if he's willing to lay on the floor! ”

"The first time people come, they let them lay the floor...... Isn't that right? ”

"What's ...... out of the question!"

Mu Zixu listened to the itchy root of his teeth, and thought to himself, "You are really sincere enough, I let me lay the floor the first time I came?

Of course, what made him unhappy was not because the floor was uncomfortable, but because Meiyu repeatedly talked about "ordinary friends".

It seems that I have to hurry up and let you and me share the same bed as soon as possible, and see how much you emphasize "ordinary friends".

He thought evil in his heart.

The so-called single-mindedness is indispensable, just when Mu Zixu eavesdropped on Meiyu's conversation with his grandmother, and he thought about it......

The hammer hit the hand.

"Ouch!"

The artifact man, who was still smug just now, suddenly let out a painful scream......
