When the magic flower blooms

The concealed iron gate was pushed open, and hidden within the wall was a somewhat desolate courtyard.

A few naturally cultivated coreopsis swayed in the grass, and the pond beside it was full of duckweed. Under a few big trees, the dead leaves had been retting into humus, giving off a rotten earthy smell under the hot sun.

But the most conspicuous ones were the bushes with their tiny buds, which seemed to creep in from the outside in unbridled abundance.

He Tiansi's home is hidden deep in the bushes.The gravel path ended with an old wooden porch.There are several empty flower pots under the porch, and the moss on them extends to the ground.

He Tiansi wiped off the wet mud on the soles of his shoes on the steps, took out the key and opened the main door.

Behind the main entrance is the porch, He Tiansi put his shoes on the broken shoe rack, put on his slippers and continued walking in.The spacious space at the end of the entrance was dimly lit, and only an old sofa was placed.

The sofa is placed with its back facing the entrance, and the front is facing the wooden gate sliding door on the whole wall.The sliding door is connected to the atrium, and the sun at three or four o'clock in the afternoon is projected from a high place, passing by a luxuriant acacia tree, and falling into a small pond that is not clear.

He Tiansi quickly walked into the living room through the side door on the right.There is also a group of glass sliding doors facing the atrium, but when you look out, you can see the shade of bamboo and the branches of wintersweet without flowers.

He put the backpack on the coffee table, and the white cat got out immediately, and began to limp around to explore the new environment.

He Tiansi ignored it, turned on the electric fan and blew it on himself, and poured another large glass of ice water to cool down a little, and began to organize the items in the backpack.

At about this time, there was a soft knocking sound from the wooden corridor surrounding the atrium.

He Tiansi turned his head, and happened to see a fat big white cat rushing onto the sofa, leaping into the air, skillfully climbing his back to his shoulders, rubbing against his ears.

"Boss Bai is good, brother misses you very much too."

One person and one cat finished greeting each other affectionately. He Tiansi was about to take the cat down when he heard a crisp sound behind him—the new white cat knocked over the empty beer bottle in the corner.

At this moment, Boss Bai also noticed the existence of the new cat. It immediately lowered its ears, widened its eyes, and dug its claws into He Tiansi's flesh.Before He Tiansi had time to take measures to stop it, it bounced off like a tiger descending a mountain.

He Tiansi thought it was over, but the imagined scene of the two tigers fighting did not happen—only the two cats hugged each other affectionately and rolled into a snow-white ball.

No, on closer inspection, this is more like Boss Bai's wishful thinking.The new white cat didn't want to cooperate at all, but was suppressed by the fatter cat.He could only let Boss Bai sniff it all over his body like a dog, and was even licked several times.

But rabbits will bite when they are in a hurry.Until Boss Bai pounced on him and made a straddle-like movement, the new white cat finally let out a sullen roar and punched Boss Bai on the nose.

Boss Bai probably never expected that his overture would provoke a severe beating, so he took two steps back and hid behind He Tiansi with his tail between his legs.While calling it a coward in his heart, He Tiansi hurriedly persuaded him to fight.

He picked up the new white cat, turned his head around, and pointed the cat's butt towards Boss Bai.

"Look carefully, he is also public, if you keep chasing him, you will drag him out tomorrow and be eunuched!"

Boss Bai may not have understood anything else, but the word "娇" suddenly scared him, turned his head and disappeared into the corridor.

Before He Tiansi had time to rejoice, another pain suddenly appeared on his wrist—the white cat, who was forced to put on a shameful exhibition, was also furious. After rewarding him with a paw, he jumped to the ground and fled into the kitchen with a limp.

Illusions are all illusions, there are no docile cats in this world!

The grievances are grievances, but there is still one thing that should be done.

New cat bowls, new water basins, as a senior cat slave, of course the equipment is complete.He Tiansi put all the things in front of the white cat, just like the chief steward who paid tribute to the royal meal.However, the white cat was dissatisfied. He didn't even touch the cat food, but only reluctantly licked the water.

He Tiansi thought it was still alive, so he didn't force it.I did a full body check while it was licking the water.

Fortunately, apart from the wound on the right rear foot, there seems to be no other problems.

He Tiansi immediately brought scissors, hydrogen peroxide and a bandage, first cut off the cat hair near the wound, cleaned the wound carefully, and bandaged it.This white cat seemed to be very smart, it only flicked its legs while washing the wound, and remained motionless during the bandaging.

Maybe the whole process was too pleasant, and He Tiansi couldn't help thinking of other ideas.

"Look at your hair is so long, knotted and dirty, why don't you just shave it all?"

As he said that, he turned his head to fetch the electric faders, but the white cat limped under the sofa immediately.

He Tiansi was worried that the lice on his body would harm Boss Bai, so he quickly followed after him.One person and one cat quarreled in front of the entrance, and suddenly heard a knock on the door—it was Aunt Guang who came to the door with food.

The white cat took the opportunity to escape.He Tiansi had no choice but to open the door first.

Aunt Guang is an old woman in her 60s with a sharp chin and slender eyes.The expression on his face was as indifferent as his appearance.Perhaps because of the lack of preparation in advance, she only brought He Tiansi a few vegetarian dishes: eggplant, loofah and tofu mixed with preserved eggs, all packed in old and yellowed disposable plastic boxes.

He Tiansi took the lunch box and thanked him repeatedly.He wanted to talk more, when there was a sound of children laughing and playing in the distance, Aunt Guang's plain face suddenly brightened, she turned her head to respond, and walked quickly following the sound.

"My own grandson is just different..."

He Tiansi touched his nose, and gave a wry smile as a solution to the ridicule.

He returned to the restaurant with a few side dishes, cooked a pot of rice by himself, sat down and ate slowly.

As the sun sets, the top of the mountain is covered with colorful sunset glow.After the tired bird returned to the forest, the sound of the cicadas also eased a lot.

The huge room suddenly fell silent, but He Tiansi started to keep busy after dinner.After brushing the dishes and chopsticks, he cleaned up the room again, fished out the fallen leaves in the atrium pond, went to take a bath, and threw the clothes brought back from the hospital into the washing machine by the way.

Coming out of the shower, He Tiansi wiped his hair while walking to the French windows, and whistled towards the atrium.

Boss Bai, who had been wronged for several hours, ran over quickly.He Tiansi rubbed its head, said sorry, and filled it with cat food.

After appeasing Boss Bai, he turned around to look for the new white cat.I yelled in the front and back yards, and finally saw a pair of bright eyes in the grass.

The future is long, so let's give it some room to get used to it.

He Tiansi put the water basin and the food bowl mixed with anti-inflammatory powder for cats on the porch, whistled twice, and went back into the bedroom.

During the week of being hospitalized with a sprain, his biological clock was forced to adjust to the old age pattern of going to bed early and waking up early.But as soon as he lay back on his own bed, He Tiansi started to suffer from insomnia again.

The night in Jinyu Village is really too quiet.

Even if the wind whispers from the valley in the distance, even if the insects and frogs sing in the summer night without stopping for a moment, even if the bushes in the courtyard are bursting with the refreshing fragrance of flowers... But for He Tiansi, all of this is It doesn't seem to make any practical sense.

Time was stretched infinitely in this meaningless silence, even melted, viscous, dripping down like pine resin.

Slumped on the soft bed, He Tiansi closed his eyes.He felt like an insect wrapped in amber, lost in the viscous time, from a person of flesh and blood to an object that no one cared about.

"tick"

The sound of water droplets suddenly rang in his ears.

He Tiansi opened his eyes, it was pitch black all around, but it was not so pure.The bright moonlight spilled into the atrium from a height, proving that the night was clear and there was no rain.

"tick"

Another drop of water fell.

He Tiansi suddenly felt a sharp pain in his left hand. He raised his hand to look, but the palm was black.More viscous than water, thinner than mud.

is blood"?

When the word popped out of his mind, the sound of water droplets suddenly became urgent.And it got louder and louder, eventually turning into the roar of machine guns.

He Tiansi opened his eyes wide - the large darkness on the ceiling began to reveal an illusory haze, as if an unknown movie clip was being played.There are bullets, gloomy laboratories and glare operating lights, and scales and feathers growing alternately from his raised arms...

When the big bang happened, he finally escaped from the nightmare.

The darkness has returned to its regular nature, but the sweat and pounding heartbeat prove that the nightmare is not far away.In the past few months, He Tiansi has had similar nightmares every once in a while. The doctor said that this may be the sequelae caused by the accident that year, and asked him to try to get used to it, but unfortunately it was really difficult.

It would take some time for him to feel drowsy again, so He Tiansi simply sat up and wanted to go to the yard to have a heart-to-heart talk with Boss Bai.

But it was precisely because of this that He Tiansi suddenly discovered that there was a light on in the kitchen opposite the atrium.

It's definitely not that he forgot to turn off the lights before going to bed - He Tiansi is the first to be sure of this.Then, based on the location of the light, he judged that it should be the light inside the refrigerator.

Could it be that Boss Bai is playing with those dried salted fish again?

Given that similar situations have happened before.He Tiansi immediately turned over and got out of bed.He walked lightly and came to the large floor-to-ceiling windows to peek secretly.

The light from the refrigerator quickly faded, and the kitchen and dining room were once again pitch black.Suddenly, the sliding door leading to the atrium from the restaurant opened, and Boss Bai was pinched by a slender hand on the nape of his neck and thrown into the corridor!

anyone? !

He Tiansi held his breath, quietly pushed the sliding door open, and crawled on the old wooden floor with hands and feet, trying not to make unnecessary noises.

Soon, he found a safe position close enough to peek into the dining room by the bright moonlight.

It was a tall and thin figure. It seemed to be naked from the back, but it could also be seen that it had broad shoulders and a thin waist, as well as a pair of perfect long legs.

What was even more eye-catching was the long black hair, like a waterfall under the moon, falling down to his waist.

...It's like a goblin walking out of a deep mountain.

Although she couldn't see her face clearly, she was definitely a beauty.He Tiansi knows that this intuition is absurd, but intuition is intuition, there is no reason to explain it.

He also understands that normal people should feel puzzled, vigilant and even fearful at this time.But to be honest, he doesn't have any of these negative emotions now.

He Tiansi secretly laughed that he might be possessed by an evil spirit, and continued to observe secretly.

Although Boss Bai was thrown into the courtyard, he still scratched the sliding door persistently.Perhaps because she was afraid of making a big noise, the long-haired beauty went back and forth, holding something in her hand, and gently placed it in front of Boss Bai.

...seemed to be a bowl full of wet food.This Shun Shui favor is well done!

Boss Bai, this disappointing dog, was actually bought by a bowl of cat food.He Tiansi secretly cursed, "What's the use of raising you", while continuing to peep intently.

The long-haired beauty is actually wearing a kitchen apron, but it's not much different from not wearing it.I saw it opened a carton of milk it had scavenged from the refrigerator, tore off the seal and poured it with its head up.

This goblin is actually looking for food?

For no reason, He Tiansi became excited.

He began to move quietly again, crawling closer and closer, and even felt like a fisherman holding a net, locking the most precious prey in his life.

Hold your breath and concentrate, determined to win.

Across the double-glazed sliding doors, the long-haired beauty obviously hadn't noticed He Tiansi's approach.It drank the whole carton of milk in one go, then bent down to take out a plate of leftovers from dinner, and walked to the table beside it.

But at this time, He Tiansi was less than five meters away from it.

If you get closer, you can see the true face of the long-haired beauty clearly.Find out if this is a fantastic dream on a midsummer night, or something even more unbelievably real.

It's a pity that He Tiansi still failed, and the reason for his failure was so simple and helpless-he got on Boss Bai's tail.

Boss Bai, who had more than failed to achieve success, howled and showed his sharp claws at his master.

The long-haired beauty was startled and turned around quickly.

He Tiansi only had time to see clearly a pair of black and white eyes that were as bright as mercury, and the next moment, the long-haired beauty disappeared without a trace amidst the misty fragrance of flowers at night.
