Chapter 2: Black Feather in the Night
The hospital in the middle of the night, silent and eerie.
The little boy of seven or eight years old lay quietly on the bed, surrounded by a pile of cold instruments that monitored his body.
He was weak and couldn't sleep at all, and he had just undergone a chemotherapy treatment during the day, and he was in pain all over his body.
I was tossing and turning when I suddenly heard a few cat meows outside the window.
This is called too fake for acoustics, and when you hear it, you know it's human.
The boy happily got out of bed, endured the pain, and pushed open the window.
On the burglar fence outside the window, a petite man is squatting.
"Little sister!"
Little sister, this is a very popular title now, but here it is the boy's exclusive title for Su Xiaoxiao.
Originally, the boy called her "little sister", but Su Xiaoxiao was too tongue-twisting, so he let him omit the word "little".
Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly stretched out an index finger and put it in front of his mouth, signaling him to whisper.
This anti-theft fence is impossible for ordinary people to get into, but when Su Xiaoxiao met him for the first time, she told him that she was a cat, and the boy believed it.
Su Xiaoxiao jumped in from the window, took the boy's hand, and brought him back to the hospital bed.
The boy whispered, "Little sister, I endured another catastrophe today, am I brave?" ”
Su Xiaoxiao has been lying to him that chemotherapy is a catastrophe, as long as he can endure it, he can fly into an immortal, and become a cat and a dog like her, and he can change whatever he wants.
The boy believed, too.
Su Xiaoxiao stroked his head, which had already become bare from chemotherapy, and said with a smile, "Brave! Our little light is the bravest! ”
Xiaoguang puffed up his chest, like a little man, "When I endure it a few more times, I can surpass you and become a world-famous immortal!" ”
Su Xiaoxiao thought with a smile in her heart, you want to cultivate immortals and become gods, but I am an onmyoji, our systems are different, how can you surpass me?
"Xiaoguang is really amazing, he has become so powerful, what do you want to do? Protecting Mom? ”
Xiaoguang smiled, "Of course." However, when I get stronger, I still want to marry my little sister! ”
Listening to the child's innocent dream, Su Xiaoxiao smiled, "If you become stronger, do I have to marry you?" Little sister, I'm there, but there are a lot of people chasing after me. ”
Xiaoguang snorted and said very arrogantly, "So what, as long as I become stronger, I can marry you forcibly, and no one can stop me!" ”
Su Xiaoxiao didn't take a breath, coughed, stretched out his finger and scraped the bridge of his nose hard, and said angrily, "You, read less of those messy novels, you know that this behavior is illegal?" ”
Xiaoguang disagreed, "I've become an immortal?" Can the laws of mortals still govern me? ”
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless for a while and skipped this topic.
She took off the backpack on her back and took out a small box from it, "Come, young lady has brought you a gift." ”
Xiaoguang opened the box excitedly, but saw that there was a wooden hairpin inside, and he was immediately deflated, "Little sister, I'm a boy." ”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and picked up the hairpin and held it in front of him, "This hairpin is mine." Don't you want to marry me? As long as you grow up healthy and healthy, when the time comes, come to me with this hairpin, I will marry you, how about it? ”
As soon as she heard this, the deflated Xiaoguang immediately became full of anger again, snatched the hairpin in her hand, raised her other hand, and stretched out her little thumb, "Okay, let's pull the hook!" ”
Su Xiaoxiao stretched out his hand and hooked his little finger.
At this time, there was a soft knock on the door, and Su Xiaoxiao looked over and saw a young man's face looking at her from the small window on the door.
Su Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue and said to Xiaoguang, "Little sister has been discovered, Xiaoguang hurry up and go to sleep, pretend that I haven't come, otherwise I will be scolded by the doctor's brother again." ”
Xiaoguang pouted and reluctantly lay back on the bed, Su Xiaoxiao had just covered him with the quilt, and he heard him say stupidly, "I don't like that doctor brother." ”
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned, "Why?" ”
Xiaoguang skimmed his face, his face full of concern, "He likes you." ”
Su Xiaoxiao said funny, "What nonsense are you talking about?" He likes me, how do you know? ”
"A man's sixth sense."
Su Xiaoxiao was speechless again, and stroked his head dotingly, "People are small and big, and they will be jealous when they are so young." Rest assured, we hooked, didn't we? ”
Xiaoguang glanced at the hairpin in his hand, hugged it in his arms, and said "um" softly.
Finally coaxed him to sleep, Su Xiaoxiao glanced at the machine next to him, the line that symbolized life gradually became vibrant, smiled with satisfaction, and turned around and walked out of the door.
Outside the door, a young man in a white lab coat looked at her with a smile.
"Come and see Xiaoguang again?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him with bad intentions, "Senior Siming, Xiaoguang said that he doesn't like you." ”
Song Siming was also stunned, "Why?" ”
He said......" Su Xiaoxiao approached him with a wicked smile, "You like me." ”
Song Siming ignored the connection between the two for a while, and coughed dryly twice, "Xiaoguang's illness is very bad." I don't think I can survive the next chemotherapy. ”
As soon as he said this, Su Xiaoxiao didn't have the heart to joke, but he wasn't sad, "It's okay, didn't you say it, the longevity hairpin can cure him." ”
It seems that she really went to find the longevity hairpin. Song Siming frowned, "Where did you get it?" ”
"You don't care about that." After saying it with a smile, Su Xiaoxiao turned around and was about to leave.
At this time, his indifferent words came from behind, "In fact, for Xiaoguang, it may be a relief to die like this." ”
Su Xiaoxiao turned her head abruptly and said angrily, "What are you talking about!" ”
Song Siming sighed, "Sooner or later, he will know that his parents are dead." ”
Such a young child, without relatives and no reason, does not know how to go forward in the future.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Song Siming's back and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
When she walked out of the hospital, Su Xiaoxiao's face was low, she was full of worries, and she couldn't say melancholy.
The longevity hairpin can renew Xiaoguang's life, but what awaits him is the future without the company of his relatives for decades.
If there is no hope in life, is it necessary to live?
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't figure out this problem, and walked in despair.
Before he could get out of the hospital gate, he bumped into something.
Covering his head and looking up, what he saw was a very close, hideous and terrifying long-nosed hawkbeak.
Tengu?!
No, it's Mr. Qian.
To be precise, a tengu dressed in Mr. Money's painted skin.
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned, raised her head high to look at him, and grinned a reluctant smile, "Mr. Qian, don't come to harm?" ”
Mr. Qian stretched out his hand full of bird feathers, grabbed her by the collar on the back of her neck, and pulled her away from him, "Stinky girl, isn't it playing yin?" Those 'Fez' onmyoji are no match for me! ”
He was covered in blood, and apparently he didn't make it out.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled, turned around suddenly, and ran away.
Mr. Qian was willing to let her go, and two big goshawk-like wings fluttered behind him, flapping into the air and rushing towards her.
Su Xiaoxiao made a few handprints on his chest with both hands, and said in his mouth, "Taiyin Water • Paper Crane!" ”
A paper crane formed by the convergence of blue light flew out of her hand, and in the blink of an eye, it became a person high, carrying Su Xiaoxiao and running into the sky.
Mr. Qian chased after him, and the two of them played an aerial chase in the sky above Xingang City.
The tengu flew extremely fast, and after a while he caught up, he opened his mouth and spewed out a cloud of red light.
Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly carried the paper crane to the left and right, and flew into the woods in the mountains west of Xingang City.
Su Xiaoxiao used the dense woods to cover herself, but she was still hit by his red light ball on the wings of the paper crane.
Losing the ability to fly in an instant, Su Xiaoxiao fell from the air, fortunately, he had been flying at a low altitude in the forest, and he didn't fall into meat sauce, but his knees were still worn out.
Struggling to stand up, Mr. Qian had also arrived behind him.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't hesitate, and his hands were sealed, "Shaoyin Jin, thunder in the palm!" She turned around and slashed with her palm, and a bolt of lightning shot out from her palm.
This speed is also comparable to thunder and lightning in nature, Mr. Qian couldn't dodge, the wings behind him were protected in front of him, and he resisted the blow hard, and suddenly retreated more than a dozen steps backwards.
He was already injured, and after receiving the blow, he fell to his knees.
"I almost forgot, you graduated from the academy with the title of the first rookie in the history of the school, known as the strongest onmyoji of the younger generation." Mr. Qian wiped a handful of blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked coldly at Su Xiaoxiao, who was panting.
He took out a glass ball that radiated a bright star from under the bird feather on his chest, "In that case, then I can't neglect you." Since you have handed over this Heavenly Fox Neidan to me, then I will live up to your kindness! ”
With that, he swallowed the Naidan violently, and a fierce bright light leaked out from under his skin, as if the brilliant galaxy in the Neidan had exploded in his body.
As he said, Tianhu Neidan, ghosts and monsters can increase their cultivation for thousands of years.
