Chapter 17: The Siren (1)

He and Hua Zhu went with him to the edge of the Lethe River, where yin and yang meet, where there was no wind, and the sky was covered with dim yellow clouds, which were completely still.

The bright red flower charm grows on the banks of the Lechuan River, immortal and immortal, only the water of the Lethe River is flowing. The river of Lethe has no source and no end, and the river is full of unwilling souls and love and hatred that have long been precipitated.

There was a small boat on the bank of the Lechuan River, and the ferryman was standing at the ferry with a hat, and when he saw them coming, he only raised his head slightly, but he didn't say anything.

It was the first time for Hua Zhu to come here, and he felt bored after only a while of being lifeless here, but this ferryman had been here for an unknown number of years.

Xie Tianqing threw the poisonous corpse into the Lechuan River, and the poisonous corpse was instantly devoured by the soul in the Lechuan River.

And Hua Candle's palm suddenly felt itchy and numb, he raised his hand, and a flower bloomed in his hand, and his poison was all gone.

The flower floated in the air in the palm of his hand, blooming, without a rhizome, without leaves, just a flower.

Suddenly, Hua Candle looked up at Xie Tianqing: "Can I take this back to raise it?" "I don't know if I can support it.

Xie Tianqing thought for a while and said, "Is this a living?" ”

"But this one has no roots and no leaves, so it may not be able to live here, right?" Hua Zhu looked at the flower in his palm, and the fear and hatred at that time were gone.

"Well...... All right. Take it back and try it. ”

"Hah! That's great! Hua Zhu just wanted to pounce up like before, but suddenly remembered the injury on Tianqing's hand, and he just restrained his actions.

After Hua Zhu put the flowers together with the one given to him by the water god, reconciled Tianqing and returned to the world to go to the hospital.

The doctor at the hospital took a look at it and asked Xie Tianqing to take a film. When he finally came out, Xie Tianqing's hands were put on a plaster cast and hung around his neck.

Hua Zhu looked at him like this and wanted to laugh, but he felt that his injury had something to do with himself, and it was really not a good behavior to laugh at him at this time.

So along the way, Hua Candledu's expressions changed back and forth between smiling and not smiling.

Xie Tianqing also said with bad intentions: "I have an injured right hand, I can't cook fish for you, and we will eat takeout for a long, long time in the future." ”

Hua Candle's smile disappeared suddenly, but Xie Tianqing was in a good mood.

Before going home, Hua Zhu went to the flower shop to buy two flower pots with soil and moved them back.

He planted the flower given by the god of water and the flower of the other side on the land, and cast a spell on them.

The flower on the other side has grown rhizomes in the soil, and it should be able to live, and the flower given by the water god has just been planted, and the flower candle once thought it was going to die, but under the rescue of the flower candle spell, it still came back to life.

Xie Tianqing looked at the flower candle that was still sweating and panting in the winter, and said with a smile: "These two plants don't eat the rain and dew of the world, if you don't water it with spells every day, I'm afraid you won't be able to feed it, right?" As he spoke, he took a sip of water.

"......" Hua Zhu felt as if he had raised two plants for himself, which was useless.

"But you can take them with you to cultivate, maybe your cultivation will make great progress."

"Really? I'm a cat, don't lie to me. Hua Zhu looked at Xue Tianqing with disbelief in his eyes.

Xie Tianqing took another sip of hot water: "Of course, what are you lying to?" ”

Hua Zhu sighed, looked back at the two pots of flowers, sat on the soft sofa, and flicked Xie Tianqing, who was also sitting on the sofa.

"Don't you think it's strange? We killed Lu Qing's poisonous corpse, but he didn't stop it, for what reason? Flower Candle shrunk her feet onto the couch as well.

"Who knows...... If we could have known what he was thinking, wouldn't we have caught him a long time ago? Xie Tianqing turned his head and looked at the heavy rain outside.

The weather forecast on TV said that it would rain for three days in a row, and the temperature would drop again.

In a dark room, Lu Qing sat cross-legged, he knew that the poisonous corpse he had placed outside had been killed by Hua Candle and them, but he had no way to get out now.

This rain was really timely. Lu Qing closed his eyes again, the peony flower in front of him was shining, it was only used to nourish these flowers, it was indeed human flesh and bones.

It rained heavily for three whole days. Xie Tianqing asked for leave from school to recuperate at home because of a hand injury, but he couldn't be idle every day, and he would still use his left hand to draw some things in the studio.

Rather than watching those boring TV series, Xie Tianqing prefers to be accompanied by his brush.

Xie Tianqing sighed: "Hua Candle, stop biting my paintbrush, if your teeth are really itchy, didn't I buy you dried fish with grinding teeth?" ”

The flower candle cat was lying on the soft cushion, not far from Xie Tianqing's side, holding a paintbrush that Xie Tianqing had bought that had not yet been used.

When Hua Zhu heard him say this, she turned her head to look at him: "Little dried fish? I finished it yesterday. ”

"Yes......" Xie Tianqing put down the paintbrush, picked up his mobile phone, and prepared to place an order on the Internet, buying a few packs.

But now Xie Tianqing remembered that they didn't seem to have been out of the house for about three days. Because of the rain, it was inconvenient to go out, and he was injured again, so he has been eating takeout for the past few days, and he doesn't need to go out.

After Xie Tianqing finished placing the order, he looked at the fog on the window: "It doesn't seem to be raining today." ”

"It's not going down in the morning." Flower Candle replied as she played with her paintbrush.

Xie Tianqing got up and walked to the side of the flower candle and snatched the brush from his mouth, but the tooth mark of the flower candle had been left on the barrel of the brush. He frowned in disgust and threw the pen in the trash.

Hua Candle ran out of toys and turned over and licked her fleshy paws: "This kind of wet weather is really annoying. ”

Xie Tianqing was in the living room, took a cloth and wiped the fog on the window, it was also a foggy day outside, and the visibility was not high, but fortunately, it didn't rain.

"Flower candles, are you going to the supermarket?" Xie Tianqing turned around and shouted.

"Go!" Flower Candle ran out of the house in high spirits.

"But you're going to have to help with the things."

Hua Zhu jumped on the sofa: "How long will it take for your hands to be good?" ”

Xie Tianqing glanced down: "It's going to take another month." ”

"It's been a long time...... I also have to eat takeout for a month...... I want to eat fish, I want to eat fish! The candle was splashing and rolling on the couch, and the paws on her hands hooked the cloth of the couch.

Xie Tianqing hurriedly hugged the flower candle lazily with one hand: "Flower candle!" This is already the third sofa cover of the month! I'm not planning on another sofa cover this month! Do you know how many fish you can buy with the money you pay for a sofa cover? ”

Hua Zhu flicked his tail unhappily: "I don't know, but this demon lord is going to eat fish." ”

Xie Tianqing sighed: "Hua Candle, don't be so willful." I'll cook fish for you when I'm healed, and now you can be patient and eat what others have made. ”

Hua Zhu looked down at the other arm that was hanging, and his unstretched claw pad scratched: "Does it still hurt?" ”

Xie Tianqing smiled: "It doesn't hurt." "Sometimes he really doesn't know whether Hua Zhu is good or not, sensible or not.

But he knows that Hua Candle is very smart, but his temperament is the temper of a cat, sometimes he is willful and troublesome and afraid of trouble, but sometimes he is smart and sensible and likes to be coquettish.

He really can't do anything about him......

Hua Candle's tail dangled, and he lay on Xie Tianqing's chest and muttered, "But I still want to eat fish." ”

Xie Tianqing thought for a while and said, "En...... Why don't we go out to dinner today? It just so happened that it didn't rain today. ”

It's past four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's still too late for them to go to the supermarket after dinner.

"Okay." Hua Zhu jumped off Xie Tianqing's body and turned into a human form, "Are you going out now?" ”

"Hmm." Xie Tianqing had a plaster on his hands, and it was very inconvenient to wear clothes, so after he was injured, he used spells to change his clothes, but even such a trivial matter used spells, which always felt very luxurious.

Xie Tianqing and Hua Zhu went out, the temperature outside was very low, and the fog was very strong, even though it was still afternoon, it was already like night.

But Hua Candle hasn't gone out for a few days, and it's still good to come out for a walk. Especially recently, there has been no whereabouts of Lu Qing at all, and he has a kind of broken can and broken Buddhist mentality.

Passing by the gate of the community, a few aunts who usually chat at the gate of the community until they go home to make dinner are preparing to go home at this time.

They are quite familiar with Xie Tianqing and Hua Candle, after all, Xie Tianqing has always been famous in the superstition circle.

"Oops, what's wrong with your hand?" An aunt who was about to go home with food in her hand asked.

"It's okay, I fell." Xie Tianqing explained casually.

"So careless. However, the weather is cold these days, there is frost on the ground, and it is slippery, so be careful. Taking your brother out to eat? ”

Those who knew them in this community thought they were brothers.

They don't bother to explain that much to mortals.

"Well, I can't cook because of my hand injury, and I'm tired of eating takeout, so I'm going out to eat today."

"Haha, then you should be careful, it is foggy today, and you have to watch the car when crossing the street." The aunt smiled and left.

Hua Zhu looked up at the sky, and the fog always made people feel uncomfortable.

They walked down the street, and today was the weekend, and there were more people on the street, so they went into the mall and picked a shop on the top floor of the mall that was ready to make fish.

Luckily they came early, otherwise they would have lined up at the gate a little later.

While waiting for dinner, Hua Zhu was bored playing with her mobile phone, listening to the happy chat at the next table.

Originally, there was nothing particularly worth listening to, but they told an urban legend about foggy weather, and Hua Candle was very interested.

The story they tell is that there was a man who wanted to walk across the bridge because he was late in the fog and didn't have a bus home, and his house was just across the bridge. Usually it takes about ten minutes to walk across the bridge, but the visibility is very low that day, and he always feels that he can't walk out.

And the end of the story is nothing more than that person is forever trapped on the bridge that walks out.
