Chapter 147: Money Skewers
Zhou Xiaolong opened his eyes, and the first person he saw was Professor Cui.
Professor Cui was staring down at Zhou Xiaolong, seeing that Zhou Xiaolong was awake, Professor Cui shouted happily: "Oh, Xiaolong, you woke up, scared me to death, you have slept for a whole day......"
Because he had just woken up, Zhou Xiaolong's consciousness was a little blurred, he raised his hand and looked at his hands, when he saw the silver ring on his thumb, the unicorn pattern on the silver ring seemed to be flashing a little, but it was already very faint.
It was only then that Zhou Xiaolong regained his previous memory.
In the dream just now, Zhou Xiaolong was swallowed by the huge dream spirit, and later thanks to the silver ring, he and Director Tao were rescued from the dream.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xiaolong hurriedly sat up and went to see Director Tao on the other bed, and when he saw it, Director Tao actually slowly opened his eyes and seemed to be sober.
"Professor Cui, look, Director Tao is also awake......
was reminded by Zhou Xiaolong, Professor Cui and the nanny went to see Director Tao together.
Director Tao's body is not as strong as Zhou Xiaolong, after all, he is old, and he has been sleeping for many days, and he has just woken up, and he has no strength in his body.
Professor Cui was naturally very happy when he saw Director Tao awake, and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Tao, how do you feel?!" ”
Director Tao blinked and thought for a long time before he recognized Professor Cui, "Teacher Cui, it's you, I'm ...... Where am I?! ”
Professor Cui pointed to the small bed next to him and said, "Thanks to Xiaolong, it was Xiaolong who saved you, otherwise, I am afraid you will not wake up at all, what is wrong with you, what happened......"
Director Tao was still dazed, frowned, and pinched his temples with his hand, "What's going on, I...... I don't know! ”
Zhou Xiaolong slowly stood up and said to Professor Cui: "Don't ask so much, first make some digestible food for Director Tao, such as gruel and the like, he hasn't eaten for a few days, his body is the most critical, and he needs to take care of it......
Professor Cui nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, Xiao Tao, you have to eat something first." ”
Under the command of Professor Cui, the nanny ran to the kitchen to boil the porridge, and soon, the porridge was ready.
Zhou Xiaolong was also hungry, so he drank two large bowls of porridge at Director Tao's house with some small pickles, and Director Tao also ate some, but his body was relatively weak and he couldn't get out of bed for the time being.
Zhou Xiaolong didn't sleep for long, his body was nothing, watching Zhou Xiaolong finish drinking the porridge, Professor Cui asked curiously: "Xiaolong, did you really meet Xiao Tao in your dream?!" ”
To be honest, Zhou Xiaolong's head at this time was like a ball of paste.
Although he slept all day, after waking up, his spirit was still very bad, and Zhou Xiaolong couldn't completely remember the memories in the dream, but they were all rough outlines, fragmented, and he couldn't say clearly.
However, the last burst of white light still left a deep memory for Zhou Xiaolong.
As for what happened to Bai Guang before, Zhou Xiaolong couldn't think too much of it now that he thought about it, so naturally he couldn't say anything to Professor Cui.
Now that Director Tao has woken up, Zhou Xiaolong and Professor Cui's task has been completed, and the two of them left Director Tao's house, and it was already dark outside.
Zhou Xiaolong sent Professor Cui home, and when he was at the door, Zhou Xiaolong told Professor Cui: "That porcelain pillow, don't stay in Director Tao's house, it's best to bury it deep underground, in case one day, someone sleeps on that porcelain pillow out of curiosity, maybe it will activate the dream spirit inside......
"Okay, Xiaolong, I understand, when Xiao Tao is better, I will ask him to bury the porcelain pillow back in its original position," Professor Cui nodded, "Don't worry, you have worked hard today, go back to the dormitory and have a good rest, and you have to go to class tomorrow?" ”
A long time after this incident passed, once, Zhou Xiaolong inadvertently mentioned it to his uncle Bai Zimo, but Uncle Fat Bird had his own opinions.
Bai Zimo believes that there should be something strange about why the dream spirit in Zhou Xiaolong's dream is like a centipede.
Bai Zimo thought of a small insect, that kind of bug, which looks very similar to a centipede, that is, it has longer legs, called a worm, commonly known as a money string.
This small bug is very common in people, especially on damp walls, and usually catches small bugs for food.
There is a legend in ancient times that some Taoist money strings can climb into pillows and make sleepers fall into nightmares......
Zhou Xiaolong recalled that the corner of the porcelain pillow in the Song Dynasty had been damaged, and Bai Zimo guessed whether there would be a money string that got into the porcelain pillow and regarded the porcelain pillow as his home.
After Director Tao got the porcelain pillow, he cleaned the porcelain pillow with water, and as a result, the money strings in it had to be forced to move, in order to retaliate against Director Tao, the money strings entered Director Tao's dream and trapped Director Tao.
Recall that the huge monster that Zhou Xiaolong dreamed of in his dream was indeed shaped like an enlarged version of a money string.
If it's really Uncle Fat Bird's thoughts, I hope this matter will be over, and it won't affect Director Tao's life in the future.
……
Then he said that that night, Zhou Xiaolong said goodbye to Professor Cui and returned to the dormitory alone.
As soon as Zhou Xiaolong entered the 514 dormitory, he saw Qi Dongqiang and Ouyang Lei, two roommates, lying on the bed, fiddling with Qi Dongqiang's second-hand laptop together, looking very engrossed.
"You two guys who don't learn and don't know how to learn, aren't you watching a little movie again?" As soon as Zhou Xiaolong entered the house, he asked curiously.
"No, no," Ouyang Lei sat up and quickly explained, "I'm doing serious things with Qi Slender Monkey, Master, you're thinking too much." ”
"Serious, what serious things can you do?" Zhou Xiaolong said unremittingly.
"We want to open an online store," Qi explained, "and we are in the pipeline......
"Open an online store, what do you have to sell?" Zhou Xiaolong asked.
"Hey, Master, why does that sound so ugly?" Ouyang Lei retorted.
"Xiaolong, the online store we opened is not for selling things, but for ......selling services," Qi Dongqiang explained like a successful entrepreneur.
"Buy services, what services do you two have to sell?" Zhou Xiaolong asked again.
"Damn, it sounds hard to hear," Ouyang Lei shook his head helplessly, "Master, we have a service, and it's that kind of special service......"
"What special services?" Zhou Xiaolong stared at Ouyang Lei's fat body, looking up and down.
"Oh, Master, don't look at me like that, I'm not the ...... point"
"Who's the point?" Zhou Xiaolong asked.
"The point is ......" Before Ouyang Lei finished speaking, Qi Dongqiang squeezed his eyes at him, looking like he was grimacing.
"What's the matter, what are you doing?" Zhou Xiaolong asked.
"This online store is still in the process of applying for registration, and when it is successful, I will explain it to you with Qi Slender Monkey," Ouyang Lei smiled, "If it is successful, Master, don't you leave us alone?!" ”
"I don't know anything about the online store, I can't manage ......"
Zhou Xiaolong didn't pay much attention to it, took soap and towels, went out to wash his face, and prepared to continue sleeping.
Although I slept in Director Tao's house for a whole day, it was not called sleeping at all, and I was still very tired.
This night, as soon as he slept until dawn, Zhou Xiaolong felt that his whole body had strength.
After getting up with Ouyang Lei and them, they went to the cafeteria for breakfast together, and the new day's classes started again.
