Shang Mingbao pulled the coat that Xiang Feiran put on her, took the two pieces of paper he handed her, and pressed them under her eyes. After a while, the paper was softened.

"Clothes...... You brought it to me? ”

"I'm afraid you'll want to go out for a walk."

After all, he came to the task of coaxing other men with girlfriends, and he didn't know what she was angry about, so going out to see the flowers and plants should be the safest way.

"I want to go." Shang Mingbao simply expressed his needs and tried to get out of bed.

Afraid that she knelt for too long and her legs were numb, Xiang Feiran pressed her shoulder with one hand: "Eat first." ”

Opening the door, Aunt Lan and Fang Suining, who were guarding outside, were overjoyed, and Aunt Lan asked eagerly: "The soup is still a little hot, drink some soup to cushion your stomach first?" ”

Shang Mingbao nodded.

Fang Suining stabbed Xiang Feiran with his elbow, and almost didn't stab anyone seriously: "It's okay, Brother Feiran, I underestimate you." ”

Xiang Feiran didn't say anything, just bowed his head, meaning that he didn't bother to excuse himself from this compliment.

Shang Mingbao's footsteps naturally slowed down, or he fell to the end after a few steps. Xiang Feiran's footsteps were also slow, and in a short corridor, Aunt Lan and Fang Suining were happy in front, and their silence was behind them. Waiting for Fang Suining and the two to go down the stairs, Xiang Feiran felt that the T-shirt was gently pulled. He looked back, Shang Mingbao grabbed a small corner of his clothes, and in the dim light, the tail of his crying eyes was still crimson.

Xiang Feiran asked her with his eyes: What?

"You haven't welcomed me back yet." Shang Mingbao whispered, his mouth pursed a little, and his eyes glanced to its side.

The grievance died, and the first time I saw her again, I gave her a loud voice, and I didn't show any joy at all. She can linger on her mind for three hundred and sixty-five days.

Fang Suining waited for them on the stairs and shouted, "What are you doing?" The soup is cold again! ”

Xiang Feiran's volume only gave Shang Mingbao:

"Welcome back, Shang Mingbao."

"Are you happy?" Shang Mingbao asked.

Her eyes were serious, clear, and unmistakable.

Xiang Feiran also forced himself to get rid of any thoughts about her question, "Happy." ”

It's just that there is always a subconscious second when he wonders inappropriately: does she care about him a little.

Of course, for a girl who has lived in an atmosphere of stars and moonflowers since she was a child, dominating the eyes of everyone around her is as natural as eating and drinking, she just doesn't allow him to be absent-minded as one of the "people around", so she asks this question.

After dinner, he fulfilled his promise to take her to see the flowers.

"But the evening primrose is gone, and the other flowers don't bloom at night." Shang Mingbao regretted it to the extreme.

"There are a lot of flowers that bloom at night, not just evening primroses."

"For example?"

"Most often said, epiphany. There are also jade, Haizhou Changshan, gourd, loofah...... Wait a minute. “

Shang Mingbao's eyes lit up: "Is there a kind here?" ”

Xiang Feiran ruthlessly said, "No." ”

"Then I don't even know what they look like......

"I'll show you the specimen later."

Shang Mingbao suddenly felt bored: "Then what else is there to go, it's dark, and there's nothing to see." ”

Those flowers that bloom during the day are of course blooming at night, but when they have seen the grandeur and brightness, they feel that the night is so lackluster.

Xiang Feiran thought for a while and said, "Wait for me here." ”

He went and returned, holding a flashlight in his hand that was slightly different from the usual home one.

Shang Mingbao: "What is this?" ”

"Ultraviolet flashlight."

"What for?"

"Take you to see the other side of the plant."

Xiang Feiran pushed the switch, and the beam shone out, very dim. Shang Mingbao was puzzled and asked, "Broken?" ”

Xiang Feiran raised his chin lightly: "Look." ”

A plant that Shang Mingbao couldn't name, under the beam of light that she couldn't see, emitted a faint red fluorescence.

Shang Mingbao was silent for a moment: "It's so weird......"

Is it weird?

Xiang Feiran didn't say a word, consciously turned off the ultraviolet light, and said very simply: "I'm sorry, let's go back and look at the specimen." ”

Shang Mingbao grabbed his arm: "Don't, don't." ”

Xiang Feiran looked back: "Don't you feel terrifying? ”

In order to coax other people's girlfriends, he can be regarded as doing his best...... Grant every wish.

"It's just that I'm not used to it, so I think it's a little weird. But it's amazing, why? Shang Mingbao showed a thirst for knowledge.

Xiang Feiran sorted out the wording and explained in the most popular words: "What we see with the naked eye is not all of the light, in addition to visible light, there are some things that we can't capture with the naked eye, such as ultraviolet rays." This part of the get? ”

Shang Mingbao: "Mm-hmm. ”

"Chlorophyll absorbs visible light during the day, and the light released appears green to the human eye. It also absorbs ultraviolet rays and is fluorescent, but not visible to the human eye. In order to see this side of the plant, we can wait until the evening, without the interference of those visible lights, and use pure ultraviolet light. ”

Shang Mingbao didn't respond, his hands were on his knees, his head was raised and he was trying to understand.

"It's amazing, I'm going to grow a brain."

“……”

"This is like a secret letter played in a TVB martial arts drama, on the surface it is a blank piece of paper, but with a fire or a little water, the real secret can be revealed." Shang Mingbao turned his head to look at him, his eyes bright: "This is the secret letter from the plant to us!" ”

Xiang Feiran was slightly stunned and laughed.

It's just a very superficial knowledge, but she gives a response as if she has seen a new world.

Lovely. Someone else's girlfriend.

"So, this flashlight only emits ultraviolet light, no wonder I can't see it!" She knows how to draw inferences.

"Then why is it a starry fluorescent peacock blue instead of a red fluorescent?"

"Because it's not the leaves, maybe the fruits, or the petals, the bracts, the pollen walls, which are different in substance from chlorophyll and therefore emit different light."

That night, she saw the subjects of the plant kingdom, which were very different from the day.

The white oleander has turned into a blue-purple gradient dreamy flower, the stigma of the female flower is an umbrella-shaped ice blue, and the red released by the little chlorophyll in the depths of the stamen is just like the atmosphere.

"It's like a nebula."

The white flowers of the mandala have turned into a complete ice blue.

Vermilion is such a wanton and passionate red during the day, and under ultraviolet light, the self it releases is a noble and mysterious purple.

The horse blue, which can make the root of the banlan, has such an unattractive flower, and in the dark night, it releases the elegance of a fluttering blue butterfly.

The flower of Nanshan vine is as red as the blood ruby of the top pigeon in Shang Mingbao's eyes at this moment, but she has no teacher: "Its flower is green!" It's all chlorophyll! ”

Xiang Feiran smiled: "It hasn't bloomed yet, so it's the layer of chlorophyll that is wrapped on the outside is being released." ”

Shang Mingbao muttered, "Like a hanging star." ”

Before I knew it, I had walked a long way along the mountain path.

The night was high, the clouds were thin and there were no stars and moons, and everything was pure and dark. In the silence, the strange cries of night owls, the squirming of insects, ants and rats, the broad leaves falling on humus, and the wind passing through the canopy, all the movements entered Shang Mingbao's hearing.

It should have been very scary, but something took away Shang Mingbao's timidity and fear.

She raised her hand and wanted to pick the hanging star of the Nanshan vine, but Xiang Feiran grabbed her wrist: "Don't move, it's poisonous." ”

"Poisonous again?" She was surprised.

"The oleander family is basically poisonous, divided into strong and weak, for example, the flowers of oleander are highly poisonous. However, the flower of Nanshan vine is a wild vegetable in Yunnan. ”

"Huh?" Shang Mingbao was even more surprised: "Why do you want to eat poisonous things?" ”

Xiang Feiran: "You can ask the people of Yunnan, maybe they have special skills in handling ingredients, or ...... Physique. ”

Shang Mingbao didn't know exactly where Yunnan Province was, she was not familiar with the mainland at all, and if she was asked to write a map silently, maybe Western Europe would be more handy to draw. But she will go back later and look at the map of the continent, to see where this province that eats bitter and poisonous wild vegetables is, what kind of people breed, and what kind of life they live.

On the way back, it's all downhill.

Originally, Shang Mingbao was supposed to walk in front, so that when she stepped on the air or tripped or landslided, Xiang Feiran could hold her in time.

But she didn't dare, feeling that the dark road and grass in front of her were terrifying.

Then Xiang Feiran walked to the front, and Shang Mingbao walked to the back.

But she still didn't dare, suspecting that there was some monster behind her, and always looked back with fear.

Shang Mingbao's thinking diverged: "Could it be that you didn't find out that I was captured by some monster, and only when I go back will you know that we have been separated forever?" ”

"Read less novels."

“……”

Shang Mingbao stood still in a huff.

Xiang Feiran sighed helplessly. If it was his girlfriend now, he could wait for another half hour, but since it was someone else's, he was a little tired and had to take a break.

After groping around in his trouser pocket, he didn't find the cigarette case, and remembered that in the jacket on Shang Mingbao's body, he stepped forward and said, "Take down the cigarette." ”

"Huh?"

Xiang Feiran stretched out his hand, reached into the left pocket, and sure enough, he touched the box of white sand and lighters.

He was suddenly so close, Shang Mingbao only felt that he didn't dare to act rashly, and only after he took a step back did she breathe a sigh of relief.

Xiang Feiran bit the cigarette into the corner of his mouth and slid the grinding wheel to ignite. As soon as he had time to take a puff, Shang Mingbao said, "Choke." ”

"Cheap cigarettes."

"I've given you a million, why don't you buy a more expensive one?"

Hearing Shang Mingbao say this sentence so naturally, Xiang Feiran stiffened, and after kicking the cigarette and lighter back into his pocket, he smiled naturally: "You appreciate your face so much, it's not a loss to use it for smoking." ”

Shang Mingbao frowned: "You are yin and yang weird at me?" ”

"Don't dare, Princess."

"You are." Shang Mingbao didn't listen to him, "You're not happy?" Aren't you short of money?

Xiang Feiran put the cigarette to his fingertips and looked at her eyes calmly: "I'm not happy." ”

Shang Mingbao was stunned: "Are you too little?" ”

"I didn't."

"Why?" Shang Mingbao was anxious: "That's nothing, I bought a bag more than that, you saved me, I don't know how to express my gratitude, if you give too much, you will definitely not accept it, this amount is just right." ”

In a hurry, every word she said was from her heart. Xiang Feiran pinched her cigarette and was silent for a long time, not knowing whether to say that she was kind or naïve. He smiled: "And then, a write-off?" ”

Shang Mingbao hesitated for a moment: "What kind of write-off?" ”

Xiang Feiran asked.

What is a write-off?

What is there that you can't, don't want to, can't watch a write-off?

This question, for the first time, waded through the sea of subconscious and walked to the stage of his consciousness.

He couldn't answer.

He didn't answer, "Nothing." Xiang Feiran dusted off his cigarette ash and looked at him casually: "Maybe your thank you is worth more than a million." ”

Shang Mingbao did say thank you—even though she had said it many times that day in the hospital.

Xiang Feiran replied politely and took two steps away.

Shang Mingbao wanted to follow, but he stopped: "Don't come here, this smoke doesn't smell good." ”

Shang Mingbao stood in place, watching the red star on his fingertips extinguish brightly, burning shorter and shorter, until it was finally completely extinguished by the moist soil.

Shang Mingbao had a thought in his heart for a long time, and when he came back, he mustered up the courage to say, "Can you take me with your arms around you?" ”

"What?"

"Walk with your arms around my shoulders, I'm afraid."

Xiang Feiran warned her: "Don't even think about it. ”

"But I'm really scared, I'm not pretending!" Shang Mingbao was about to cry, and handed out his hand: "My palms are sweaty." ”

I just went up the mountain to see the plants all the way, and I was very immersed, and of course I didn't feel afraid. But now I only feel that the wind is terrible, the birds are terrible, the insects are terrible, and everything that cannot be seen is terrible.

Seeing that Xiang Feiran didn't say anything, Shang Mingbao withdrew his hand, sad and reflected: Does he think she is very troublesome? She is indeed not as bold as Sui Ning, but it is not a disadvantage that girls are afraid of the dark. Shang Mingbao held back his grievances and fears, walked in front of him, and pretended to be very free and easy: "Forget it, I'm not very afraid." ”

The two hands that were sweating in their palms were clenched tightly.

The amulet that the master has opened is on his body, and the demons and monsters (as well as snakes, rats, and bugs) go away!

With a sound of sand, the sheepskin-soled Mary Jane leather shoes slipped on the gravel road, Shang Mingbao was caught off guard, and stumbled backwards with an exclamation-between lightning and stone fire, Xiang Feiran dragged her arm with one hand and clasped her waist with the other, and withdrew a wrestling against the sky.

But it wasn't over, Shang Mingbao was shocked and just wanted to say thank you, but the soles of his shoes slipped again, and this time even Xiang Feiran's center of gravity was unbalanced. If memory serves, this is a steep slope, although it is not high, and the difference of a stride for adult males is still very painful to fall.

His face changed and he didn't have time to think about it, and reflexively hugged Shang Mingbao into his arms.

In the darkness of the night, he couldn't see clearly, and Shang Mingbao only heard a muffled snort, and the small stones and clods of dirt that rolled down with it.

Xiang Feiran couldn't even speak for a while. He hadn't been out in the wild since he was eight years old, and he hadn't been so badly injured.

Damn, take your life......

Shang Mingbao also fell with gold stars in his eyes, and he preemptively attacked with tears in his eyes: "I said that you will carry me away......"

Xiang Feiran closed his eyes, his breathing was tight in pain, and after gritting his teeth and taking a deep breath, he said coolly:

"Don't say it, hold it."
