When the magic stick summons cute pets

At the same time, in the other room, Ye Changsheng finally escaped from the "Taoyuan" together with He Jiuzhong, and then returned the souls of the two brothers of the Xu family, and dealt with all the photos and other things. It's over, and it's already dawn when I rush home all the way.

After hurriedly taking the battle bath, he let out a sigh of relief, then he flopped down on the soft and huge bed, closed his eyes and fell asleep for a whole day.

She slept contentedly until she woke up naturally and the sky outside was already dark again. She stretched her waist and moved closer to the person lying next to her, then put her face on him and rubbed her face affectionately: "My dear, good morning."

He Jiuzhong lowered his eyes to look at him: "'Good morning'?"

Ye Changsheng sat up, turned his head and glanced at the hour hand that was almost on the "seven", there was no trace of embarrassment on his face, he just touched his stomach, and suddenly realized: "Oh, it's already night, no wonder I'm so hungry."

He Jiuzhong smiled at his unreasonable yet strong appearance, stood up and said indifferently: "Go wash up first, I'll order dinner."

Ye Changsheng answered "Okay" with a smile, lifted the quilt on his body, kicked his slippers, and walked to the bathroom.

First I brushed my teeth at the washstand, so I would wake up, and then I took a good bath, until I was sure that I had washed away all the smell from "Taoyuan", and then I hummed a tune that was out of tune. He walked out with his wet hair tossed carelessly with a towel.

The hotel where the food was ordered is nearby. The order was placed not long ago, and all the items were delivered in less than 10 minutes.He hadn't eaten all day, and he had exhausted too much physical strength before. Looking at the food on the table, Ye Changsheng immediately sang a song with his stomach full of joy.

He quickly opened the stool and sat down, took a pair of chopsticks from the packing bag, and couldn't wait to eat.

"Well, it's the happiest thing in the world to be able to eat delicious food after getting enough sleep." Ye Changsheng chewed and swallowed the food in his mouth, sighed, and sighed with a satisfied expression on his face .

He Jiuzhong looked at Ye Changsheng's expression of enjoyment as if he was eating a full banquet, and the corners of his lips slightly raised, and he couldn't help but aroused his appetite.

Accompany the other side to finish the food on the table, and then look at the expression on the other side leaning on the chair after eating, patting his belly with happiness, as if thinking of something and asking: "You never Xu Cheng took more than half of the power from one of them to fix Xu Chi's one soul and two souls, is this really going to happen?"

Ye Changsheng immediately replied with wide-eyed eyes: "Of course something will happen. That's more than half of the power of one of the Seven Souls! Can it be smoked casually? The price he paid is enough to make him suffer in pain and regret for the rest of his life." Struggling!"

He Jiuzhong looked at the exaggerated expression and raised his eyebrows: "So?"

Ye Changsheng smiled at him, and gestured to his own mouth: "So, he has missed all kinds of delicacies in the world in his life." Leaning on the chair, his legs dangled and swayed , with a serious face, "There is nothing more miserable than a person with a normal sense of taste who suddenly loses his sense of taste. Thinking about Officer Xu's days when everything he eats is not delicious really makes people feel sympathetic."

After hearing Ye Changsheng's words, He Jiuzhong recalled the unpalatable food he ate at Wan Jianzong, then nodded, approving his conclusion: "Well, I think what you said is very Makes sense."

It was the next morning that Xu Cheng brought Xu Chi over for a visit.

Although Xu Chi on the other end was thin and pale because he hadn't basked in the sun for several months and didn't eat normally, at least his eyes were bright, and his mental state seemed to be much better.

Ye Changsheng looked the two brothers up and down, then smiled, leaned back on the sofa and said: "It seems that you have recovered well after you came out of 'Taoyuan'."

Hearing Ye Changsheng's words, Xu Cheng immediately thought of a series of things that he had encountered in that terrible illusion before, stood in front of him, pulled Xu Chi to the other end, and bowed to Ye Changsheng together, saying: Apology: "Only in that place, we two brothers really caused a lot of trouble for Tianshi. Now that I think about it, I'm really too impulsive, and even almost implicated Ye Tianshi and Mr. He..." He said Then, lowering his head a little lower, "We are really very sorry about this."

Xu Chi also bowed deeply in the direction of Ye Changsheng.Everything started with his cowardice and withdrawal. Compared with Xu Cheng, the shame and apology he carried were more intense.With a low voice, he followed Xu Cheng and apologized: "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Ye Changsheng waved his hand: "It's not really troublesome. After all, I personally made a deal with Police Officer Xu. I just did my duty to bring you out." He pointed at the empty sofa next to him, " Officer Xu and little brother Xiaochi stop standing there, sit down."

Xu Cheng nodded with an "eh", and pulled Xu Chi to the other side of the sofa to sit down.

Ye Changsheng poured a cup of tea for the two of them and handed them over. Xu Chi on the other end took the quilt and held it in his hand. He rubbed his fingers on the rim of the cup for a while, as if hesitating for a while, and finally hesitantly opened his mouth this way. Asked: "Ye Tianshi...that photo..."

"We took out the photo yesterday and burned it." Ye Changsheng looked at him with his eyes wide open, and he didn't know whether he was joking or warning: "Why, do you think the experience of several months is not clear enough? , still want to take the photos back and go to 'Taoyuan' again?"

When Xu Chi heard the words on the other end, probably because he thought of the unbearable memory before, his bloodless face immediately turned paler, and he shook his head and hurriedly said: "No, no, I just want to know, Does it mean that as long as that photo is gone," his voice choked up a little, and then lowered a little, "other people will never be tricked into that place again?"

Ye Changsheng also poured himself a glass of water, sipped the mouth of the glass and moistened his throat. After a long while, he waited until he felt nervous while looking at him from the other side, wondering if he had said something wrong and felt nervous, then he slowed down his voice. He opened his mouth and asked, "Brother Xiaochi, you should be clearer than me on this question." He raised his eyes and looked straight into his eyes, "In the 'Taoyuan', besides you, you also see Haven't there been many others who have escaped from the real world?"

He smiled: "There are tens of thousands of entrances to the 'Taoyuan' in this world, and that photo is just one of them."

After hearing this, Xu Chi pursed his lips and lowered his head, as if caught in some kind of struggle.

Seeing Xu Chi like this, Xu Cheng stretched out his hand to pat him on the shoulder, then looked at Ye Changsheng and asked, "Tianshi Ye, I want to know what the so-called 'Taoyuan' is? The monster in it Well, are they monsters or ghosts? Is there really no way to completely wipe them out?"

Ye Changsheng smiled and looked up at him again, and turned the water glass slightly in his hand: "Officer Xu should understand that the concept of 'Taoyuan' actually existed a long time ago. The powerful celestial masters of yin and yang art do not count, if they can be completely wiped out, how can the 'Taoyuan' still exist?"

He smiled and sighed: "Taoyuan is something built by human beings. As long as human beings continue to reproduce, 'Taoyuan' will probably never die out."

Xu Chi raised his head in a daze, then pondered for a moment before reacting: "You mean... is it because our desire to escape from reality is too strong, that's why the 'Taoyuan' and the monsters in it were born? ?”

Ye Changsheng glanced at him with the loving eyes of "a child can be taught", and continued to add: "That is only a small part, and more include human emotions such as fear, laziness, improper desires, etc. The combination of these huge negative thoughts finally gave birth to the so-called 'Taoyuan' we saw before."

"However, judging from the current situation, it seems that they can no longer be satisfied with the strength of those negative thoughts, so they will choose a more direct way to lure human beings into it, and directly draw what they need from the human soul itself. Nutrients." Ye Changsheng adjusted his sitting posture, "Although when we came out, Mr. He and I had sealed the entrance of the cave as much as possible, but this is only a solution to the symptoms, not the root cause. Who knows that the 'Taoyuan' When will it be reopened?"

Xu Chi lowered his head slightly as if he was chewing Ye Changsheng's words carefully. After a while, his lips trembled slightly, and he murmured: "Yes, you always have to face things by yourself. What's the use of running away?" , where in the world is there any real Taoyuan?"

Xu Cheng glanced at Xu Chi with some concern, hesitated for a while, and didn't say anything in the end, but exerted a little force on the arm on his shoulder, and pressed it down as if comforting.

Xu Chi felt the worry on the other side, smiled at him, shook his head and said in a low voice: "Brother, I have figured it out a long time ago, I have missed it once, and I won't continue to be stupid again."

"Hey." Hearing Xu Chi's words, Xu Cheng felt both relieved and sad, and finally could only shake his head and sighed softly.

Ye Changsheng scanned the two brothers over there again, and finally fell on Xu Chi: "Then what is Xiaochi's future plan? I heard Officer Xu mean that you like photography, and you are planning to continue in the future." Go this way?"

Xu Chi pursed his lips tightly, and nodded his head: "Although my innate ability to distinguish colors may be a little lacking, but I have encountered something that I want to do, and I still want to try it." He paused again After a while, he added, "But before that, my plan is to finish my studies first. Just in the last two days, I am planning to transfer to XX Middle School to repeat my studies for a year, at least to be admitted to university first. Regarding photography, after all Whether to make it a career or a hobby, I can wait until college to think about it.”

Ye Changsheng looked at Xu Chi, his eyebrows stretched: "It seems that this time, you are indeed seriously planning for your future."

Xu Chi gave a slight "hmm", although his appearance still looked very young, but at least he finally had a little resilience, no longer like the glass bottle that could be broken when kicked at first.

"Excuse me, may I ask where is the bathroom in Tianshi's house?"

Ye Changsheng pointed behind him: "It's just behind that door."

Xu Chi thanked him, put the water cup he had been holding in his hand on the tea table, and then walked over in the direction of Ye Changsheng's finger.

Seeing that the other end went into the toilet, Ye Changsheng turned his attention to Xu Cheng again, leaned over, and lowered his voice a little: "Your..." He gestured with his finger on his mouth, A trace of deep sympathy flashed in his pupils, "Are you okay?"

Xu Cheng read the sympathy in Ye Changsheng's eyes, and a little difficulty appeared on his face.Inserting his fingers into his hair and pulling it back, he smiled wryly and said, "Except that everything tastes like chewing gum when eating, everything else is fine."

Ye Changsheng, who has always believed in "Food is the paramount necessity of the people", listened to the other end admitting the tragedy he was facing, and the sympathy in his eyes became even more sympathetic: "Oh, this is really... the one who sees it is sad, and the one who hears it is disappointed." tears."

Xu Cheng already felt that losing his sense of taste was very disappointing, but looking at Ye Changsheng's reaction at this moment, he felt even more desolate.Rubbing his fingers lightly on his pants, he suppressed the urge to smoke, and with an arc of his lips, he forcibly comforted himself: "It's just a sense of taste, anyway, I'm usually not picky about the taste of food , It’s worth it to exchange this for Xiaochi’s safety... Hey, it’s better than losing a limb, right?”

Ye Changsheng blinked, thought for a while, and said solemnly: "No, I think losing the sense of taste is much more serious than losing a limb."

He smacked his lips: "My dream has always been to eat delicious food from all over the world. If I lose my sense of taste, what's the point of living?" Then, after a slight pause, he leaned his body to that side again, and pointed his eyes towards the other side. After a while, "Does he know?"

Xu Cheng looked over there subconsciously, then shook his head: "Because of this incident, Xiaochi is already very guilty, and I don't want him to bear any more guilt."

Ye Changsheng looked at Xu Cheng, and felt that the radiance of the holy father was so bright that it almost blinded his eyes, and he was about to be directly promoted to heaven with only one halo on the top of his head.

"Although losing the sense of taste is not as obvious as severed hands and feet, how can we keep it from being a family member after all?"

Xu Cheng smiled: "I have a lot of things to do in the police station, and I don't live with my parents, Xiaochi and the others on weekdays. Xiaochi is going to repeat his studies soon, and then he will go to university, and he can't get together. Be careful, you probably won't be noticed." He smoothed out the small piece of trousers that was crumpled by himself with his fingers, "As for after that... hey, after that, just mess around and say I’m sick, I’m not the only person in the world who doesn’t have a sense of taste.”

"You really won't regret it?" Ye Changsheng asked again with curiosity.

"To be honest, I'm starting to regret it now." Hearing Ye Changsheng's question, Xu Cheng actually answered this very honestly.

"When I found that the three meals a day were completely tasteless, I felt like I was living in hell. I regretted that I felt like a cat was scratching my heart." He said, his face Shang smiled slightly, although he has been complaining like this, but there is no trace of resentment in his eyes, "But other than that, whenever I see Xiaochi, I feel more regret than regret. I am fortunate. I am glad that at that time, I finally made such a choice."

"I think it's worth it."

Ye Chang let out a long sigh of relief, and he fell back on the sofa, looked at Xu Cheng with frowned eyebrows: "Then I can only wish police officer Xu He Xiaochi and his younger brother a smooth life in the future."

As he spoke, he comforted the head with a sincere face and said, "Besides, maybe when your drained soul power is restored and your sense of taste suddenly recovers? Although the chances are a little small, people always There must be dreams. Without dreams, what is the difference between us and salted fish."

Xu Cheng smacked his lips, and agreed with a smile without any expectations: "Yes, maybe... miracles, who can say for sure."

The two of them finalized the amount of remuneration, chatted casually for a while, and then Xu Cheng took Xu Chi and left again.After Ye Changsheng sent the two of them off, he stretched and walked towards his bedroom with his slippers on.

He Jiuzhong was meditating cross-legged in the bedroom when Ye Changsheng kicked off his shoes, crawled from the side to the bed like a cat and lay down.

The one that brought back the devilish energy that was circulating in his body returned to his dantian, opened his eyes and looked to the side, and was looking at the other side lying on the bed with his elbows supporting his body, and looking at him with his cheeks resting on his hands.

"What did you tell those two brothers?" He Jiuzhong put his hand on Ye Changsheng's hair and stroked it gently. The black hair under his hand was soft and soft, and it felt particularly comfortable to the touch.

Ye Changsheng raised his head and rubbed it against the palm of his hand, then cast a glance at him and asked with his lips bent: "Didn't you hear?"

He Jiuzhong's eyes slipped from his hair all the way to his eyebrows, the scarlet eyes were obscured by the half-down eyelashes, but the tenderness in his eyes was still clear: "Well, I want to hear you say it again, can't I?"

Ye Changsheng blinked, looked at He Jiuzhong, and asked after a while, "Mr. He, are you acting like a baby to me?"

The other end gave a low laugh and didn't refute. He just pulled his hair lightly and asked back, "Can't you?"

When Ye Changsheng heard this, the smile on his face couldn't hold back, and he rubbed against his palm again: "Okay, okay, welcome to act like a baby." Then he turned over again, hugged Leaning all over with a pillow, he rested his head on his thigh, raised his eyes and looked up, "There's nothing to say, it's just that Xu Cheng's younger brother finally came to his senses after wandering around in front of the gate of hell and was willing to go back. go to school."

It has been more than a year since He Jiuzhong came to this world. Although he has a preliminary understanding of the so-called "Earth", there are still many concepts that sound a bit strange.Twirling Ye Changsheng's hair: "In City X, is reading such an important thing?"

Ye Changsheng nodded naturally: "It's important, and not only in X City, but even in Huaguo and the whole world, education issues are the top priority." Throwing the pillow back and forth, "And not Speaking of other ideals and serving the country, at least a certain degree of education is also a threshold for most jobs in the future."

He Jiuzhong lowered his eyes to look at Ye Changsheng thoughtfully, and asked, "I remember you also went to college?"

Hearing this, Ye Changsheng immediately sat up, turned around and hugged a pillow in his arms, raised his chin slightly and confidently said: "I got a four-year first-class scholarship back then, and I graduated from Z University in a serious manner. Outstanding graduates!"

"Top student." He Jiu nodded his head: "You came out to be a magic stick after graduation?"

Hearing this, Ye Changsheng giggled and leaned closer to him, leaning his back on his shoulder, dangling his legs on the edge of the bed: "Isn't life forcing me to do that? You know that I just graduated How difficult is it for a college student to survive in City X on the meager wages of a company!"

He Jiuzhong took a look at the humble economy house they were living in now, and said "hmm": "It looks really difficult."

"Right." Ye Changsheng said, paused for a moment, then turned his head to look at him and said, "Besides, if it wasn't for this, how could I have met so many evil spirits, and why would I have thought of buying "Introduction" when I was on the road? "Summoning", how could it have summoned you to meet you?" Touched his chin, serious, "So, all of this is the arrangement of fate."

He Jiuzhong heard Ye Changsheng talk about this again, and couldn't help but smile at first, but then he seemed to think of something, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "However, Changsheng..."

Ye Changsheng raised his head: "Huh?"

He Jiuzhong looked at him and said: "Although you said that it was purely an accident that you summoned me through that formation...but if you think about it carefully, it is really just a simple act of being able to break through the barrier between the two worlds." Was it an accident?"
