I swapped my life with me

It wasn't until the calf was whipped by the black cat's tail that Mu Xuesong withdrew his curious gaze and began to slowly climb up the stairs.

Someone was also hurrying upstairs, and when they saw him, they greeted him friendly: "Friend, are you new here? My name is Carl, and I live on the fourth floor."

Mu Xuesong heard the sound and looked over, and found that it was a tall young man with yellow hair. He was quite handsome, but he was still far behind himself.

Being approached by a stranger from another world, Mu Xuesong not only did not show timidity, but chatted with him very familiarly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the black cat rushed up to the third floor first.

It hides in the partition of the metal handrail, sticks out a hairy head, and secretly observes this "Mu Xue" from another world through the gap at the turning of the stairs.

Judging from the two short meetings so far, this person and the old friend I am familiar with have no other similarities except that they share a body.

Their personalities can be said to be diametrically opposed.

Mu Xue has a gloomy temperament, usually he doesn't like to talk and laugh, and for some reason, he chooses to deliberately reduce contact with people, he is really a quiet and indifferent person.

Of course, Ulysses also knew that this was just the "positive" image that Mu Xue showed to the outside world.

And in places that outsiders can't see, Ulysses has also seen the depression, paranoia, pessimism of old friends, and even some crazy behaviors-such as trying the soul banning technique of the supreme mage.

Look at the one downstairs.

His personality should be extroverted, with a confident side in his conversation, and a little bold and reckless in his actions, and it can be seen that he is used to mingling with strangers.

Just like at this moment:

In just two or three sentences, this guy and Karl have already called each other brothers and sisters, and they have made an agreement that they will definitely go out and have a good drink when they have the chance.

Ulysses: "..." Old friend, maybe when you come back next time, you will find that the human beings in the whole building are already good enough to wear the same pair of pants as you.

That picture must be very beautiful.

Thinking of it this way, it suddenly became a little more looking forward to it.

Ah, it really confuses the cat!

And when it was about to move, two humans who were secretly observed had already climbed to the third floor.

Mu Xuesong: "I'm here."

Karl gave him a high-five with a lot of meaning: "Come out for a drink on the weekend!"

Mu Xuesong: "Hahaha, definitely."

Saying goodbye to the reluctant Karl, Mu Xuesong stopped and signaled the tangled black cat to lead the way.

There were still people passing by in the corridor from time to time, Ulysses hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to jump on Mu Xuesong's shoulder, pretending that he was an ordinary pet cat.

Out of wariness against outsiders, its body kept tense until one person and one cat came to the door of the room marked "[-]", and it scratched Mu Xuesong's shoulder with four paws.

The meaning is obvious: here, right here.

Mu Xuesong's body was tilted by it, thinking that the coat might have been poked out.

While looking for the key in his pocket, he lowered his head and warned it in a low voice when others were not paying attention: "Little cat, I suspect that you are avenging your own personal revenge. Hiss... It's almost done, let go, let go, Song Song Song—"

Ulysses bared his teeth at him and raised his tail triumphantly.

Open the door and enter the house, shutting out the noise in the corridor.

Mu Xuesong stood still at the door, listening to the sounds on the left and right, and at the same time surveyed the whole room with his eyes.

Then, he came to a conclusion: the rent here is definitely much higher than the rent in the small dilapidated house last time.

The bonus item is the small door on his right. After opening it, there is a small bathroom inside. Although the area is not large, there is even a simple water heater installed inside, so I don't have to go out to solve personal problems.

In addition, the sound insulation effect of the room is acceptable.

The young man was slightly relieved, and then slowly took off his coat, and hung it on the metal hook behind the door.

After a few steps, he walked to the only single sofa in the room, sat down on his buttocks, and then couldn't help moaning: "Damn, why is this sofa so hard?"

Ulysses jumped onto the ledge by himself.

The black cat looked outside vigilantly for a moment through the glass.

After confirming that there were no problems around it, it turned around, exerted strength on all fours, and jumped to the top of the tall cabinet next to the sofa, then only half of its head was exposed, looking down at the only human in the room.

Obviously, its attitude towards this outsider is still quite cautious.

It doesn't trust him very much, but because of its old friend, it really can't let him go. After all, this guy is still using Mu Xue's shell.

Hearing the other party's seeming disgust, Ulysses couldn't help but twitched his beard and muttered: "It's good to have one. Last time you only had a harder wooden chair."

"That's right. But, speaking of it, have you guys moved?" Mu Xuesong leaned back and slumped on the sofa.

Directly opposite the sofa was the only hard bed in the room. The young man lifted up his two long legs, which had no place to rest, and put them on the protruding wooden foot of the bed in an extremely presumptuous gesture. superior.

Pretending not to see the disgusting eyes of the cat, Mu Xuesong touched his stomach, and then began to look around: "Little cat, is there water and food in the house? I feel that this body probably hasn't eaten tonight."

Ulysses: "..."

To be honest, Ulysses had never seen this kind of human being who fell into an unfamiliar environment and could still calmly eat first.

He was indeed very different from Mu Xue.

It's so strange, it should be the same human being existing in different worlds, how come their personalities are so different...

Ulysses flicked his tail silently, and pointed to a cabinet with drawers on the opposite side of the bed with the tip of his tail: "The bread is on the first floor, the kettle and teacups are on the second floor, and the water filter ball is next to the kettle." , Remember to throw it into the pot before boiling the water."

Mu Xuesong immediately rolled up his sleeves and stood up: "Okay!"

Ulysses: =__=

Five minutes later, Mu Xuesong held the water glass, took a bite of the bread, and sighed, "Oh, 'I' have had a rough day, it's really miserable."

Ulysses: =__=

Ulysses: "Having a house to live in, bread to eat, and life not yet over, what can you complain about?"

Mu Xuesong looked up at it: "Little cat, your requirements for the quality of life are too low."

He broke off a small piece of bread and held it up to signal the other party: "How about it, would you like to have a bite too?"

"...Don't eat, get out." Ulysses looked down at him majestically: "Also, don't call me that. Boy, I'm much older than you."

Mu Xuesong twitched the corner of his mouth and muttered in a low voice: "He also said that he is not a thousand-year-old cat demon."

After complaining, the young man quickly changed the subject before Ulysses got angry: "Since you have lived for so long, have you ever seen the lives of rich people here?"

"Okay, I know what you want to say, you think I'm ignorant and I don't have great pursuits, don't you?" Ulysses sneered: "I can even freely enter and leave the bedroom of the city lord's mansion in the lower city. Don't you know how those powerful and powerful people squandered gold coins?"

Mu Xuesong coughed and said, "Hey, Xiacheng District? The City Lord's Mansion?"

Ulysses puffed out his chest: "In every lower city, the City Lord's Mansion is the most luxurious place."

Mu Xuesong: "So, then there is Shangcheng District?"

"Tch." Ulysses curled his lips: "There are five upper cities and nine lower cities in the Sears Continent."

Mu Xuesong nodded, and tactfully did not ask it "why it doesn't come in and out of the city lord's mansion in the upper city freely". Obviously, this question will probably embarrass the cat for a long time.

He swallowed the last piece of bread, and poured himself a saliva by the way: "Okay, rejuvenate. Come on, cat, I think we can get into the topic, such as exchanging information with each other or something."

Ulysses was expressionless: "Don't always give me strange nicknames, or you will be scratched to death."

After the warning, it went on to say: "Since you and I have some questions that need to be answered urgently by the other party, it is best for everyone to abide by the most basic code of integrity. If I find out that you lied when exchanging information, then I am sorry , the deal will be terminated, and I'll make you regret ever playing tricks on me."

"I can assure you about honesty. My reputation is generally relatively good." Mu Xuesong patted the bread crumbs on his hands: "But correspondingly, you'd better not lie to me."

Ulysses nodded cautiously.

It shook its fur, changed from a prone position to a squatting position, stood on the edge of a tall cabinet, and looked at the young man below with disdain: "First, a simple question."

"Human, say your name."

Mu Xuesong smiled at it, reached out and gestured a few words back and forth on the armrest of the sofa: "My name is Mu Xuesong. If I remember correctly, there is only one word difference between me and your master, maybe this is the legendary fate ?”

Ulysses carefully identified the traces of his fingertips, and then shook his head: "He is not my master, we are just old friends, or old partners, whatever you want to call it, we are not master and servant anyway."

"Okay, now it's my turn." It cleared its throat, wagging its tail behind it: "My name is Ulysses, and I'm a magical creature—please note, I'm not a cat, but a magic creature." Biology, there's a big difference between the two."

As it said that, it pointed its head and cast a warning glance at Mu Xuesong: "So, from now on, you'd better call me by my name directly, or 'Lord Sith', or 'Your Excellency Ulysses'. Anyway...anyway It can't be called 'little cat' and 'cat cat'!"

Mu Xuesong let out a long cry: "Magic creatures? So does magic really exist in this world?"

"Of course!" Ulysses raised his head and said proudly: "Magic is the original force that shapes this world. It exists in every corner, such as in front of you. The state of the fire element is very active now, compared to just now. At least double the amount."
