Withered vine new leaves

A year after Feng Xiao left, he was gone, and Chen Zhicun had to live his life day by day as usual. Whenever he got off work and sat on the subway, he always felt tired physically and empty in his heart, and the heavy night outside seeped into the glass , Chen Zhicun sat blankly in the warm subway car, and there was no one around.

When Feng Xiao just left, Chen Zhicun felt as if he was still by his side in a daze, and the confession of true love when he was pushed out of the operating room was deeply engraved in his mind like a spell, which will never be forgotten.Those who have passed away have done everything, and those who are close to them will still be deeply saddened by the memory.

Chen Zhicun lived alone, only accompanied by a Himalayan cat. Speaking of which, this cat was a gift from Feng Xiao after graduating from high school. In the past, he would always find time to bring something delicious and fun for this little beast. , like raising a daughter, now, this little guy is Feng Xiao's only connection with himself in this world.

Hearing the rattling of keys outside the door, the cat was also very smart, and immediately ran to block the door, and when it saw Chen Zhicun open the door and came in, it hugged his trouser legs and scratched.

Chen Zhicun grabbed the shiny fur on its back, and said helplessly, "Tuanzi, don't scratch, these are my newly bought pants. If you catch them, Dad has no spare money to buy you dried fish."

The dumpling stopped, looked at Chen Zhicun with his head tilted for a while, and raised his claws to the air twice. Chen Zhicun looked at the empty bowl next to the sofa, and suddenly understood that he was just showing his face when he was hungry.

Chen Zhicun put it down, found cat food from the cabinet, poured half a bowl for it, and flattered him, "I forgot to pour the food for you today because I worked overtime temporarily, Dad's pot, don't be angry, eat it quickly."

The dumpling shook its fluffy tail, let out a lazily "meow" and ate it on its own, and then ignored him, and Chen Zhicun was happy to take a leisurely shower, then went back to the house to rest.

Although he was exhausted after a day's work, Chen Zhicun tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. He finally fell asleep in a daze until the middle of the night. Feng Xiao was squatting on the side with his back facing him and crying. In his dream, he walked over to him cautiously step by step, wanting to hug him and comfort him, but his arms passed through his transparent body time and time again. I couldn't get around, the comforting words stuck in my throat and I couldn't say a word, so I could only worry.

Later, Feng Xiao turned around holding a bloody heart, cried and stretched out in front of Chen Zhicun and said, "I'll give you my heart, do you want it?" The plop thumped in Feng Xiao's hand, and he was woken up by fright.

When I woke up, my clothes were already wet with sweat, sticking to my body.

Chen Zhicun put the back of his hand on his forehead, panting heavily, feeling that the quilt was so heavy today, opened his eyelids, and finally found the source of the nightmare, this group got into his room from the den at some point Come on, climb into bed and sleep with your tail curled up on your chest!Chen Zhicun pushed the fat cat, and complained: "Miss Tuanzi, do you know how much you weigh? You dare to sleep on someone else, Dad, I will be crushed to death by you."

Tuanzi propped himself up on his two front paws with a swish, opened his blue eyes as big as copper bells and looked at Chen Zhicun, and patted the bed with his tail like a fur duster. Suddenly, Chen Zhicun felt that this scene Very weird.Just when he was about to kick Tuanzi off the bed, it suddenly put its face in front of Chen Zhicun's eyes, so close that he could feel Tuanzi's long beard scratching his nose.

"Tell me, are you dreaming of Feng Xiao again?" Tuanzi, who usually only knows "meow meow", spoke in a serious manner.

Chen Zhicun was obviously shocked, he was too frightened to vent his breath, he fumbled to turn on the lamp on the bedside table, it might be because of the aging of the light bulb, the dim desk lamp was on or off, Chen Zhicun only felt a chill down his back, and all the hairs on his body were covered with cold. Stand up.

Tuanzi took two steps back, sat down with his hind legs curled up, and his front legs straight in front of him. He said with a look of disgust at the other party's fuss: "Count, have you never seen a cat that can psychic?"

Chen Zhicun nodded belatedly, first pinched his own arm to realize that it was not a dream, and then rubbed the fat and round belly of the dumpling, the soft and warm touch came from between his fingers, Chen Zhicun dared to believe the sight before his eyes These are not dreams, so I dare to admit that Tuanzi is not a monster.The nerves that had been tense all the time quickly relaxed, and then he was in the mood to tease: "Miss Tuanzi, what kind of monster are you psychic at this time~"

Tuanzi said solemnly: "Feng Xiao told me before he died that he wanted me to take good care of you and take care of you."

Chen Zhicun laughed with a "puff": "Fatty Tuan, I have to pour out your food and shovel your shit. What do you use to take care of me? I can take care of you. It's okay, okay, don't be funny." Now, I think I must have been drowsy to dream that cats can talk, and I’ll just wait until I get a good night’s sleep.” After that, he pulled up the quilt and wanted to lie down and go back to sleep.

How could Tuanzi do what he wanted, scratching the back of Chen Zhicunda's hand before his head was covered.

"It hurts!" Chen Zhicun exclaimed, "What are you doing! Your father Feng Xiao asked you to take care of me like this? If you scratch the skin, you will easily get rabies!"

Tuanzi looked at him calmly and said, "Father Feng Xiao took me to get an injection."

Chen Zhicun looked carefully at the back of his hand under the desk lamp. Fortunately, it was just a little red and not bleeding, so he turned his head to look at Tuanzi and said, "Am I dreaming? Are you telling the truth?"

Tuanzi nodded: "It's absolutely true."

Chen Zhicun leaned weakly on the pillow behind him, and sighed: "This is really a hell."

"Meeting a stupid shit-shoveling officer like you, I'm also unlucky with nine tails." Tuanzi replied.

"When I couldn't speak, I grew fat for nothing, and my movements were slow. Now that I can speak, how can I continue to talk so neatly? Who did I learn this from? Your father Feng Xiao is not like this." As soon as the words fell, Chen Zhicun seemed to think of something As if, he leaned forward and asked mysteriously, "You said you can now psychic, is it possible to use some kind of method? For example, to repay Feng Xiao's resurrection or something like that?"

Tuanzi looked at Chen Zhicun with the eyes of a "stupid human being": "You can't come back to life after death, you don't understand this truth? What's more, you don't feed me well at ordinary times. What kind of favor do you have? If you don't settle the score with you Not bad."

Chen Zhicun lowered his head gloomily: "I knew it wasn't such a good thing, go to sleep! I have to go to work tomorrow to earn money to buy you dried fish!"

Seeing him like this, Tuanzi couldn't bear it, and hurriedly stopped him: "Don't worry, I haven't finished talking yet! Although I can't bring Feng Xiao back to life, I have a way to make you and him stay together."

"What way?" Chen Zhicun pricked up his ears.

"Exchange the rest of your life for time with him."

"How to change?"

"Fair and reasonable, one for one, you can get as much time as you have remaining lifespan."

Chen Zhicun was stunned for a moment.

Tuanzi said understandingly: "However, as a bystander, I think your feelings for Feng Xiao are just relatives and friends, and you don't have to do such a thing for him and waste your life in vain..."

"No! I want to try!" Chen Zhicun interrupted it.

"You don't have to be ashamed, it's his business that Feng Xiao loves you, now that he's dead, this page should be uncovered, you should work hard to live and look forward, Feng Xiao let me look at you because I'm afraid of you would do stupid things."

Chen Zhicun was silent for a while, and finally said: "I have been thinking about the past this year, and I hate that I didn't respond to Feng Xiao's feelings earlier. I always thought that his kindness to me was taken for granted. This is a chance to make up for it, I just want to give him all the good and love he had for me in the past.”

"But the him you bought with your lifespan is in a different world and in a different dimension, and it's different from what you imagined."

Chen Zhicun smiled wryly and said: "Appearance, talent, and character make up a person. I don't care what he looks like, and I don't care whether he has dazzling talent. Isn't it the most important thing to be loyal to character? As long as it is Feng Xiao, his inner It will never change. I used to fight with him for 30 years, not for anything else, just for his good. He is good to others and better to me. Even in different world dimensions, there will be people who treat He is still the same as before, and loves him to the bone, and from now on, his affection will never be let down again."

Tuanzi choked on what he said.

Seeing that he was wavering, Chen Zhicun hit the iron while it was hot: "Just promise me, as long as you let me accompany you until I see that he can finally find his love, I will stop, okay?"

Tuanzi looked at him with a particularly determined look, and suddenly lost his mind, he kept scratching himself with one hind leg: "Ahh, I'm so annoying, I'm so troublesome, I wouldn't have told you about this if I knew it!"

Chen Zhicun smiled lightly: "It's not your fault, it's my stubbornness, you don't know that I miss Feng Xiao so much this year."

Tuanzi patted Chen Zhicun's hand with a soft pad: "I understand, but I can't lose my life in such a ignorant way, let me give you a free trial opportunity, let you recall it well, what do you love about Feng Xiao?" What are you thinking about, don’t find yourself impulsive in the future, then it will be too late to regret.”

"Okay." Chen Zhicun nodded in agreement.

People will always encounter such things, which cannot be resisted by human beings, and the trajectory of life is changed at some point.It's like a thunderbolt in a silent place, which can always split oneself into pieces.

Chen Zhicun always feels that after Feng Xiao's death, the change of life is like a dream, which makes people caught off guard, forcing you to have nightmares over and over again, one after another, and after waking up, the ghost still lingers, no matter what you can do. Tears all over my face.I thought my life was just a few more typos, but now it seems to be a mess of characters, and I always want to start over to be complete again.

When you make friends with one person, you have to try to create all kinds of fetters to bind each other firmly. When two people say goodbye, you only need to turn around slightly, you face south and I face north, and the thread is broken.

In the past, it was Feng Xiao who desperately tightened the rope between the two, but now Chen Zhicun knew that it was his turn.
