Chapter Thirty-Six
Su Yu was sitting in the small pavilion in the park, he had just finished his morning run, and he was still a little out of breath. In the open space behind www.biquge.info pavilion, a group of old people who were exercising in the morning were playing Tai Chi slowly. And across from him, Xu Qingluo, who was dressed in a red dress, was teasing a sparrow. She stood in the morning light, with a playful smile on her face, her snow-jade arms stretched out, her palms were naturally flat, and the little sparrow stood obediently in her palms, her little head looked left and right, not afraid of people at all, and had no intention of leaving.
Although facing the early morning sun, Su Yu could still see a layer of blue and white light shrouded in her hands, like smoke and mist, as if there were wisps drilling into the sparrow's little head. But after a while, the smoke cleared, and Xu Qingluo called softly: "Zhou Ming, go pick a leaf for me!"
The little sparrow flew up in response, flew to an old locust tree nearby, tore off a half-yellow round leaf with its pointed beak, and then flew back to Xu Qingluo's hand, tilted his head to look at her, then let go of his beak and let the leaf fall on her palm.
Xu Qingluo pointed to her left shoulder and shouted again: "Zhou Ming, come here!"
The little sparrow immediately understood, flew from Xu Qingluo's palm to her left shoulder, and looked sideways at her face, as if waiting for her next order.
Xu Qingluo threw away the leaves in her hand, slapped her palm, turned to face Su Yu, and smiled brightly: "This is my Soul Immortal Method, now this little sparrow has opened its wisdom, it can be said that it is the smartest sparrow in the world, no matter where I am in the future, I can contact it at any time and tell it my thoughts." ”
It's really magical, but anything magical happens to Xu Qingluo, and Su Yu is not surprised. Instead, he was more curious about another thing: "Why do you call it Zhou Ming?"
"Oh, this one, I can't think of any other name for a while, I think this is quite suitable for it, so I use it!" Xu Qingluo shrugged her shoulders, then turned her face sideways to look at the little sparrow, and asked, "You like this name too, right?"
The little sparrow was stunned, then lowered his head and pecked her on the shoulder, as if in agreement.
"You see, it likes it too. Xu Qingluo turned her face and smiled at Su Yu again, but she was thinking in her heart, what do you want to do so much, I'm happy to call this name, Zhou Ming is a scumbag, and he is only worthy of being a sparrow in the next life.
Su Yu looked at the little sparrow and was stunned, and always felt that this name was very awkward. He didn't wake up until early in the morning, and he didn't know what happened last night, and naturally he didn't know that this was Xu Qingluo's unique way of expressing her disgust for Zhou Ming.
Xu Qingluo suddenly narrowed her eyes and smiled, and said, "Su Xiaoyu, do you think that this spell is quite suitable for you?"
"Huh?" Su Yu raised his head, he didn't understand what Xu Qingluo meant.
"You think, your brain is not good, if I can think for you and tell you what to do at any time, you will have no worries!"
Su Yu's eyes were a little straight: "You want to use this soul technique on me?"
"Uh-huh!" Xu Qingluo's eyes widened and she looked at him expectantly. She does think this is very good, although people are different from animals, they are born with a high level of spiritual intelligence, and the spiritual magic will not have the effect of opening the spiritual intelligence, but it is still very important to be able to communicate with Su Yu's mind at a critical moment, just like last night, if there is a spiritual magic to maintain, they can communicate with each other, and Su Yu will never have an accident. She was afraid that this kind of thing would happen in the future, after all, it would cause great harm to Su Yu's body. Of course, the cost of using spiritual magic on people will be very large, and it will be multiplied by the consumption of star power to maintain it, but she still decided to give it a try.
But Su Yu shook his head decisively: "No." ”
"Why?" Xu Qingluo was surprised.
Su Yu fell silent. He actually wanted to ask Xu Qingluo if it was really impossible for his brain to recover, but he finally didn't speak. On the night he left school, he had already asked once, and now, the answer is obvious, isn't it? But if there is hope, I'm afraid Xu Qingluo will not come up with such an idea. Is this to turn herself into her pet?
It's not that he doesn't hate being a pet with those cats and this sparrow, he doesn't care about this, he just fears that he will completely rely on one person, even if this person is Xu Qingluo. He has been relying on his aunt for ten years, but only he knows what it is like to be under the fence, and he is always worried about whether he will be abandoned. Now that he had to leave his aunt, he was in a sense no different from being abandoned. He refused to live a similar life again, although Xu Qingluo was really good to himself, but what reason did such a girl with great powers and unknown origin have to stay by his side all the time? Maybe one day she would suddenly disappear, right? Even if she didn't disappear, there was no guarantee that one day she would hate herself, or she would become annoying. By then, she was used to thinking for herself, so how should she deal with herself?
Su Yu folded a flower branch that stretched into the pavilion, knocked it on his arm a few times at random, and then raised his head, met Xu Qingluo's slightly frowning face, and smiled: "I feel that I can rely on myself." ”
............
Su Yu said a lot, he just wanted to rely on himself, but he didn't have any confidence in whether he could rely on himself. He had to find something he could do to do it. He thought about it carefully, and there were actually many jobs that didn't use his brain, such as selling things, delivering couriers, working as a security guard, and sweeping the streets...... None of this seems to have a high bar to hold. But he still hopes to do some more professional things, such as practicing martial arts, becoming a martial arts coach in the future and even opening his own martial arts gym. This is what he dreamed of when he was a child, and now although his brain is broken and he has a little difficulty learning things, it is not impossible for him to learn things that do not rely on his brain power and pay more attention to a lot of physical exercises.
In the afternoon, wandering the streets of Haidian District with Xu Qingluo, he noticed a martial arts dojo that could teach traditional kung fu, sanda, taekwondo, etc., and he wanted to go in to have a look, but was pulled away by Xu Qingluo, who was in a hurry. Then he saw a wandering singer in a crowded underground passage, with cool long curly hair, holding a guitar and singing to himself, and many passers-by dropped coins and bills in the guitar bag in front of the singer, and he suddenly had a feeling of brightness in his eyes.
He is only sixteen years old, and this is in the overcrowded city of Beijing, most of the work is now he can't find and can't do, and even if he learns martial arts, he can't practice anything for three years and five years, but learning to play the guitar and singing is different, you can play a tune and come out to sing, if you study hard, two or three months are enough. Although he doesn't like to sing much, many people say that he has a good voice. But no matter how good it sounds, in order to become independent as soon as possible, in order not to drag others down, he is secretly determined to learn guitar.
After passing through the passage, a short walk is a university. Su Yu didn't know why Xu Qingluo brought him to this university, looking at her familiar look, it seemed that she had been here more than once before. The two walked on the campus road, Xu Qingluo flew here and there like a red and bright butterfly, and Su Yu was like a mongoose standing guard in the South African desert, twisting his neck and looking left and right. Later, Xu Qingluo sat down in the mushroom pavilion opposite the girls' building, and out of nowhere she found a thick book and began to flip through it, while the bored Su Yu continued to wander around the campus, squatting on his shoulder with the sparrow named "Zhou Ming".
A teenager carries a sparrow around the campus, and the sparrow's little head turns left and right with the boy's head to look up and down, which is of course a very interesting scene. Many students would look at Su Yu a few more times when they passed by, and even pointed out and laughed when they walked away. I have seen a bird walking with a cage, but I have never seen a sparrow walking on his shoulder.
However, it was not long before the boy who was walking the sparrow disappeared from the schoolyard, and he walked out of the school gate, and when he left the school gate, the sparrow "chirped" twice to protest to him. So Su Yu stopped, tilted his head to look at the sparrow that was also tilting his head to look at him, touched the back of his head and asked, "...... Zhou Ming, shall we change our name?
The sparrow stared at him motionless.
Su Yu scratched his head helplessly: "Okay, classmate Zhou Ming, I'm going to do something, why don't you go back to your master first?"
The sparrow remained motionless, one with one finch staring at each other.
Su Yu simply ignored it, turned around and continued to walk forward. Take one step and the sparrow will "chirp", and take another step and the sparrow will "chirp" again. This little thing seems to have been sent by Xu Qingluo to spy on Su Yu, and he is very loyal to his master. But after walking a few steps, I was confronted by a vendor selling sugar gourds. Su Yu was disturbed by the "chirp" sound, thought about it, stopped and bought a sugar gourd, and tried to stretch it out in front of the sparrow, the sparrow looked at it stunned for a while, and suddenly pecked, smacked the taste, and quickly pecked twice.
Su Yu took two steps forward, probably eating people with soft mouths, and the sparrows that had changed knots did not cry again, happily pecking pit after pit on the red sugar gourd. So Su Yu fed the sparrow a sugar gourd while walking in the direction of the underground passage.
He's going to find the wandering singer who plays the guitar.
And not far behind him, on the other side of the school gate, a girl in a plaid shirt and slacks was slowly walking towards the school gate, she combed her short hair to the ears, her facial features were delicate and elegant, and when she looked up, she saw Su Yu's back, with a slightly surprised expression on her face, and then she was behind Su Yu and followed unhurriedly.
