This night, Xu Mo deliberately waited for the little green snake.

The little green snake came back very late, and the first thing he did when he came back was to lick the green fruits growing on the unknown plant on the balcony.

After licking it, he entered the room and swam to the side of Xu Mo's pillow and lay down. Xu Mo was bold and stretched out his hand to the little green snake, and the little green snake quickly swam up along his fingers, wrapped around his wrists, and stuck his whole body on his skin.

Xu Mo stretched out his hand and touched its body, the little green snake was very obedient, sticking to his arm, motionless, with his eyes closed, enjoying his touch very much.

Xu Mo smiled easily, most of his original fear of the little green snake disappeared at once, he tore a piece of paper with one hand, poured some of the poisonous powder in the glass bottle on it, and brought it to the little green snake.

The little green snake opened its eyes, spit out the snake letter with poisonous powder, but did not eat it, and then closed its eyes.

"Could it be that you are full?" Xu Mo was puzzled, and in desperation, he had to put the poison powder back on the table and press the paper with a key, so as not to be touched by rats or something at night, and sprinkled with poison powder.

I thought to myself: I'll leave it here, and wait until tomorrow, this little snake will definitely eat when it is hungry, right? But if it sucks the toxins in the body of other poisonous insects and eats the poison powder prepared at the same time, the snake saliva secreted will inevitably be impure, and then the dream powder and the poison will be mixed together, won't it spoil the dream powder?

glanced at the little green snake, but quickly dispelled this thought, or after a while, observe and observe first, it is still attached to me now, if it is locked up with violence, maybe it will regard me as an enemy in a blink of an eye. Besides, whether the dream fan will be mixed with the poison is just my guess, why rush to destroy the relationship with this little snake for the sake of a guess?

Stretched out his hand and touched the body of the little green snake, and thought: It's not good to always call it a little snake, so you have to give it a name.

Then he lowered his head and said to the little green snake: "Hey, I'll give you a name, do you want it?" Although he knew that the little green snake couldn't understand his words, he couldn't help but ask, but after asking, he also felt funny.

When the little green snake heard his voice, he immediately opened his eyes and spat out the snake letter at him.

Xu Mo smiled and said, "If you don't speak, I'll take your consent." Well... , Little Green Snake, Little Green... , just call you Xiaoqing. ”

Of course, Xiaoqing didn't know what he was talking about, and spat out snake letters at him.

"Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing......" Xu Mo stroked its little head and whispered a few more words of its name.

I suddenly remembered that there was also a Xiaoqing in the Legend of the White Snake, and my own Xiaoqing was resigned to someone else's name, and I suddenly felt weird, and then I couldn't help but think nonsense: If one day, my Xiaoqing is also like Xiaoqing in the Legend of the White Snake, and can become an adult, then it would be good.

That night, he took Dream Powder again, lay on the bed, felt the sensations brought by still breathing, recorded these feelings with a pen, and pondered slowly in his spare time.

The next day, he got up from the bed and immediately found that Xiaoqing had not gone out, and when he was asleep, he swam to the table and licked the poisonous powder on the paper.

Xu Mo was overjoyed and thought: Xiaoqing has eaten enough poisonous powder, and he will not go out to hunt other poisonous insects.

At that moment, he poured some of the poison powder in the bottle into the paper bag, Xiaoqing's appetite was not too large, and after eating some, he stopped eating. Xu Mo looked at the amount of poisoned powder in the bottle, but couldn't help but be a little worried, although Xiaoqing's food was not large, his own poisonous powder was also not much, this way of eating would provide it for more than a month at most, and then it would be gone.

Now that I think about it, Ma Wu stole these poisonous powders, and the purpose was not to make food for Xiaoqing, but to use this to research the formula of the poisonous powder and prepare it himself. But he has that condition, but he can't do it himself.

Xu Mo shook his head, but there was nothing to think about for a while.

After Xiaoqing was full, she swam to the pillow and crossed up, closed her eyes, and stopped moving.

On the morning of the same day, Xu Mo received an interview notice, which was sent to him by a printing house, and he now submits his resume, no longer caring about the nature of the work, nor considering his future development direction, as long as he thinks it is suitable, the requirements are low, and he will vote in the past.

Therefore, the factory that was interviewed last time produced steel pipe materials, this time it has become a printing factory.

He took his resume and rushed over, but when the interviewer asked if he had done it before, he couldn't say a word about the lie he had thought about.

He came out of the interview company, opened his wallet and took a look, and there were only about 20 yuan left in the wallet. Rao only eats two steamed buns a day, saving the cost to a minimum, but how long can those dozens of yuan last?

Seeing that he was about to starve for a few days, he was in pain, sad, worried, regretful, and self-blaming. Lost and returned home.

On this day, Xiaoqing did not secrete snake saliva.

At night, he lay on the bed, stroked Xiaoqing who was coiled on his chest, and said sadly: "Do you know the truth? Xiaoqing, I went to the interview today, but I failed again." The interviewer asked me if I had any work experience, a job like this, the requirements are very low, there are countless ways to deal with it online, I have already thought about how to answer, but when the words come to my mouth, I can't say a word. ”

Xiaoqing seemed to be infected with his emotions, raised her head, glanced at him, and hissed at him.

Xu Mo sighed, and then said: "My former girlfriend scolded me for being a fool because of this, blame me for not telling lies, in fact, I don't know how to ......"

There was a pause, and it took a long moment before he continued, "I just don't care about this kind of thing. ”

He had hidden this sentence in his heart for a long, long time, and he hadn't said it to Li Qi, nor to his parents, but he couldn't help but say it in the face of this little snake at this time.

After finishing speaking, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Now it's okay, I didn't tell a lie, my backbone has been retained, but my stomach is going to starve." ”

As he spoke, he took out a ten-yuan bill from his wallet and handed it to Xiaoqing, "See, this is called 'money', and in the human world, it can be used to buy food and ......."

Speaking of this, he felt that the meaning of 'buying something to eat' was too profound for Xiaoqing, and he definitely couldn't understand it, so he folded the banknote in half a few times, and filled it into his mouth, but secretly put it away, and made a chewing motion in his mouth.

At the same time, he put the bottle of poison powder in front of Xiaoqing, unfolded the ten-yuan bill, pointed to the banknote, and pointed at himself, and said to Xiaoqing: "Its effect on me is like ......" said and pointed to the bottle of poison powder, and then pointed to Xiaoqing, "It's like what it does to you, you have to eat it, but I have to have this thing to eat." ”

When Xu Mo said this, Xiaoqing kept looking at him with his eyes open, and when he finished speaking, he actually stretched out the snake letter and licked it on the glass bottle.

Xu Mo couldn't help but laugh, stretched out his finger and touched its little head, and said approvingly: "Xiaoqing is really smart." ”

The pain in my heart seemed to be alleviated a lot with this smile. He handed the ten-yuan bill to Xiaoqing, and then said, "See? This is it, I need it to eat." ”

Xiaoqing spit out the snake letter at the ten-yuan bill, and then fell on top of him, I don't know if Lu Dao understood what he meant.

Xu Mo didn't care if it could understand it or not, he regarded it as the object of confiding, and said countless words, the disappearance of his parents, the inability to find a job, the arrogance of his girlfriend, the contempt of others, the departure of his girlfriend after the worst, he couldn't afford to eat, and he couldn't sleep at night.

These words are accumulated in his heart, he has never said to anyone, he is the outside, but he is as weak as ordinary people on the inside, especially in the past two years, his situation is getting worse day by day, and people have become more and more silent.

In such a situation, his attitude towards what happened around him has also become careless, as if he doesn't care about anything, in fact, deep down, he cares more than anyone else, but he can't show it, he must rely on an indifferent appearance to hide his fragile heart.

He kept talking until it was very late, and then he stopped sleeping, but after he finished speaking, although his heart was vented, his will became depressed.

After falling asleep, I had nightmares all night, dreaming of being chased by ghosts, and as soon as I closed my eyes, I saw countless grimaces. I woke up again and again, and fell asleep again and again.

As a result, the next day, his cold worsened, and he coughed violently. As soon as he got off the ground, put on his shoes, and when he wanted to stand up, his body actually shook a little, and it took a long time for him to recover, and he felt a little dizzy.

He didn't have the money to buy medicine, so he drank a large glass of water in a row to feel better.

Xiaoqing has long been gone, and I don't know where Lu Dao went.

Xu Mo glanced at the poisonous powder on the table, before Xiaoqing left, he should have eaten it, and there was still a lot of poisonous powder left, so it seemed that the reason why it came out was that it was unlikely to prey on poisonous insects.

Remembering that after Xiaoqing was full yesterday, he lay down on the pillow and didn't go out, Xu Mo was even more puzzled in his heart, and secretly guessed what Xiaoqing had done.

Before going out, I looked at my wallet and thought: I have found a job, I still don't know when I will find a job, more than 20 yuan, how long can I sustain it?

After a little thought, I dispelled this idea, dream powder is contraband after all, once caught, it will be over.

There was still no harvest for the day, and in the evening, as soon as he returned home, Xiaoqing greeted him and hissed at him with snake letters.

By the time he turned on the light, Xiaoqing had already wandered away, to the bed, and then to the pillow. Xu Mo looked at it, and on the pillow, next to Xiaoqing, there was actually a ten-yuan bill.
