[Rat cat] Mirror City

"Yuehua, it's already very late, why don't you go back and rest first?" After several conversations, Zhan Zhao and Ding Yuehua were already familiar with each other.Seeing Ding Yuehua's tired face, Zhan Zhao couldn't bear to persuade him.

Bai Yutang also saw Ding Yuehua's different vigor than before, and said, "Ding Yuehua, don't be brave. Mao'er and I can just watch Ding Yao."

Ding Yuehua turned her face to the side and rubbed her sore eyes, suppressing the sleepiness in her eyes and shaking her head, "I can still hold on." She put all her attention on the little boy sleeping peacefully on the opposite bed.

Bai Yutang shrugged helplessly, grabbed Zhan Zhao who still wanted to dissuade him, and shook his head—forget it, Ding Yuehua is a woman he understands, no matter how much he tries to persuade her, it will be useless.

How could Zhan Zhao not know Ding Yuehua's style?Not long ago, the three parents of Ding's family took advantage of Ding Yao's absence and told them the reason for asking them for help this time.

It is said that Ding Yao’s situation has not been right for the past two months. During the day, he is normal, but at night he starts to be in a trance, and then he starts to sleepwalk. Recently, he even sneaked out of the room at night, and then stood outside all night.

What scares Ding Zhaolan and the others the most is that Ding Yao can't remember what he did that night. When he asked him if something happened and what he remembered, he wouldn't say anything.Such a cute child suddenly became like this, and the whole family went crazy.

At first Ding Zhaolan and the others took Ding Yao to the hospital for a physical examination, but they found nothing serious.They even took Ding Yao to see a psychiatrist. At that time, Ding Yao was in a trance, and no one paid attention to him. The doctor said that Ding Yao might be autistic, and Ding Zhaolan and Ding Zhaohui were so angry that they almost didn't beat him up. out of the consulting room.

After struggling for two months, Ding Yao's situation was not getting better, but he couldn't find any way to solve it.At this time, Ding Yuehua insisted on starting from a different angle, and turned to Zhan Zhao and the others for help.

At first, Zhan Zhao felt that this was unreliable. After all, he was an expert in archaeology, so it was totally wrong to ask him to come and see the children.But Ding Yuehua was so persistent, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao felt that there might be her reasons for this.

So Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang decided to take a look at Ding Yao's situation tonight, and it would be best to see Ding Yao's strangeness.It was Ding Yuehua's stubbornness that caught Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang's attention.

Originally, last night, Ding Yuehua stayed up all night because of Ding Yao's fever, but tonight, not only Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang insisted, Ding Zhaolan and Ding Zhaohui also persuaded her to go to rest, and let them watch Ding Yao.

However, Ding Yuehua did not listen to any persuasion, instead she forced Ding Zhaolan and Ding Zhaohui to go back to rest, and she accompanied Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang to guard Ding Yao.

With such a stubborn style, how could Zhan Zhao not know that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be useless.Worriedly forgetting to glance at Ding Yuehua, Zhan Zhao weakly pulled Bai Yutang over and looked at Ding Yao together.

At this time, although he is not particularly kind, he can only hope that Ding Yao will show abnormalities soon.Only then can things go further.

Bai Yutang brushed Zhan Zhao's fallen forehead hair indiscriminately, and smiled, this cat is in a mess whenever it is worried about others.

However, maybe Zhan Zhao's worry played a role.Ding Yao, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up, looking towards them.

Zhan Zhao was startled, the three of them were sitting here, the child wouldn't be frightened, right?

Bai Yutang pressed his shoulder to tell him not to worry, and motioned Zhan Zhao to look into Ding Yao's eyes.

Zhan Zhao looked carefully until Ding Yao was still in a trance.Ding Yao's gaze was a little dazed, although he glanced at their position, Ding Yao didn't seem to see them, and kept his face expressionless.

No matter what, Zhan Zhao couldn't relate to this cute child who sat on his lap, smiled shyly, and then acted like a baby.

"Is Ding Yao always like this every time he starts up?" Zhan Zhao asked Ding Yuehua quickly.

Ding Yuehua nodded, noticing that Ding Yao was going to go out, picked up the coat that he had prepared on the side early and put it on for Ding Yao.Ding Yao stopped still and let Ding Yuehua help her put on her clothes.

After putting it on, Ding Yao pushed open the door and walked out as if Ding Yuehua didn't exist.Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other and followed closely.

At first, Zhan Zhao was still worried about what Ding Yao would do.But Ding Yao is very peaceful.He just walked out of the house according to the usual route. If it was daytime, Zhan Zhao might think that the child was just going out to play.

"Cat, this way." Zhan Zhao said with emotion, Ding Yao had already walked to the back of the yard.Bai Yutang pulled him and chased after him.

Zhan Zhao and the others chased Ding Yao to a large open space.Ding Yao didn't do any neurotic actions as Zhan Zhao thought. There was no worship or ceremony, but he just opened his arms and looked at the night sky, exhaling comfortably.

After lowering his arms, Ding Yao just stood relaxed, quiet and comfortable.Zhan Zhao couldn't help thinking, if it was daytime and the sun was shining brightly, then it would be a very comfortable thing.

Ding Yao didn't make any changes, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also planned to observe first.But Ding Yuehua couldn't wait any longer, how could she bear to see her nephew suffering from the cold outside at night.

"Ding Yuehua, don't be in a hurry." Bai Yutang noticed that Ding Yuehua wanted to step forward, frowned and reached out to stop her.But Ding Yuehua became anxious and the others really couldn't stop him.

Ding Yuehua didn't listen to persuasion at all, and walked behind Ding Yao.Ding Yao didn't respond either.

"Even if it's over, he won't respond." Bai Yutang didn't want Ding Yuehua to do his work in vain, so he was going to step forward to hold him back.

Zhan Zhao's movements were half a beat slow, and he didn't catch up in time.But falling behind also allowed Zhan Zhao to see Ding Yao's movements clearly.So he pulled Bai Yutang back.

What's wrong?Bai Yutang looked at Zhan Zhao strangely.Zhan Zhao pulled him to look in the direction of Ding Yao and Ding Yuehua.

When Ding Yuehua was standing beside him, Ding Yao stood quietly, treating Ding Yuehua as air.

"Xiaoyao, let's go back." Ding Yuehua couldn't bear Ding Yao to stand outside, and wanted to hug him back.Who knew that just as Ding Yuehua bent down, Ding Yao dodged Ding Yuehua's outstretched hand and walked around to the side.

Ding Yuehua's hand hangs awkwardly in the air, unwilling to give up and wants to hug him again.But Ding Yao dodged again.While doing this, he remained expressionless.

"Xiaoyao..." Ding Yuehua called out to him in frustration.Just as he was about to go forward, he was stopped by Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang who were chasing after him.

"Don't waste your efforts, he won't give you any reaction." Bai Yutang stopped Ding Yuehua's useless efforts.

Ding Yuehua retorted excitedly, "No, Xiaoyao still reacted. He didn't react at all before..." Although this reaction was to avoid her, it was still a reaction anyway.

She wanted to try again, but Zhan Zhao stopped her, "Yuehua, calm down first. Xiaoyao doesn't have any reaction to you."

From just now until now, Ding Yao has ignored the three of them.Even if it was a fluke to guess that Ding Yao would react to Ding Yuehua, when Ding Yuehua helped Ding Yao get dressed, and when he stood beside Ding Yao just now, Ding Yao didn't even look at her until Ding Yuehua came to In front of Ding Yao...

before?Zhan Zhao turned his head to the side, and saw Ding Yao sitting on the lawn in a more comfortable position, looking up at the night sky.Following his line of sight, a round of bright moon was bright and flawless.moon?Ding Yuehua?Ding Yao...

Over there, Bai Yutang was still blocking Ding Yuehua, and Zhan Zhao interrupted them, "Stop arguing for now. Yuehua calm down, and listen to me first." As soon as Zhan Zhao's words came out, Bai Yutang stopped first, and Ding Yuehua didn't sounded. "Yutang, go and stand in front of Ding Yao, just stand there, don't speak, and don't touch him."

Bai Yutang was a little puzzled, but he still obediently walked in front of Ding Yao.As soon as he stood in front of Ding Yao, Ding Yao suddenly stood up and ran away.

Bai Yutang blinked, and seeing Zhan Zhao's expression of "it's true", he understood in his heart.

Only Ding Yuehua looked at Ding Yao running away in surprise, "Zhan Zhao, Xiaoyao, this is..."

"He didn't react to you, but to the moonlight." Bai Yutang walked back and said to Ding Yuehua.

Zhan Zhao also nodded, and Ding Yao's behavior just verified this guess, "Ding Yao wants to bask in the moonlight in an open environment."

Ding Yuehua immediately thought of what happened to Ding Yao during this time, and vaguely figured out something.

But when it comes to moonlight, things get more complicated.Generally speaking, moonlight can replenish aura, but it is useless to people, let alone absorb it.

"Ding Yuehua, when did Xiaoyao start to react to the moonlight?" Bai Yutang thought it would be better to ask from the very beginning.

Ding Yuehua frowned and recalled, "About two months ago, he started sleepwalking at that time, just walking around the room. Most of the time he opened the window and stood. At first, the elder brother found out, thinking that he was going to jump off the building , freaked us out.

Later we found that he would go back to lie down after standing at the window for a while, and then the time gradually became longer.He started running outside a month ago. "

"Be quiet first." Zhan Zhao suddenly interrupted their conversation.

Since Zhan Zhao would not do this normally, Bai Yutang immediately became quiet.It was only then that Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes, "What's wrong, squinting?"

Zhan Zhao still stared at Ding Yao's direction, and waved wildly at Bai Yutang, "Yutang Yutang, show me Xiaoyao, how can I see that Xiaoyao is shining? Am I wrong?"

shine?Do you think Ding Yao is a light bulb?

Bai Yutang also looked over, at first he didn't have any obvious feeling, but felt that there was something on Ding Yao's body that was different from the one next to him, which was hazy.

This hazy feeling forced Bai Yutang to squint his eyes, and once he narrowed his eyes, the hazy feeling became more obvious.Slowly, the haze dissipated, and Bai Yutang saw the halo that Zhan Zhao mentioned.

"My God, what happened to Xiaoyao?" Ding Yuehua exclaimed.

"You saw it too?" Zhan Zhao asked in a daze while his pupils were still dilated.

"Stop squinting." Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao, and Zhan Zhao immediately came back to his senses, and was just about to ask Bai Yutang what's wrong.Bai Yutang raised his chin, "Ding Yao has really become a light bulb."

"What?" Zhan Zhao looked around in surprise, only to see that Ding Yao's body was covered with the light just now, and it even dazzled his eyes.Zhan Zhao turned his head away, and when his vision was blurred, he found that the direction of Ding's backyard seemed to be shrouded in a circle of light.

"Yutang, stay here with Yuehua and watch Ding Yao." Zhan Zhao ran towards the backyard.

"Cat!" Bai Yutang wanted to catch up, but was worried about Ding Yao and Ding Yuehua.

Ding Yuehua stepped forward to hug Ding Yao, thank God this time Ding Yao didn't break free, turned around and said to Bai Yutang, "You go after it."

"But you..." Ding Yuehua held a natural light bulb in his arms, and Bai Yutang couldn't feel relieved.

"You go." Ding Yuehua hugged Ding Yao tightly, "We'll be fine. You go and chase him, it's dark in the back of the yard, Zhan Zhao may have an accident by himself. We'll wait here, you go quickly !"

Nodding to Ding Yuehua, Bai Yutang hurriedly chased after him.

He rushed to the backyard out of a moment of excitement, and Zhan Zhao immediately regretted it.The Ding family's backyard not only presents the feeling of a dynasty's reverse, because it is too big, and Ding Yuehua and the others did not install a lamp here.

As soon as I ran here, it was pitch black in front of my eyes.The moonlight was also blocked by the tree, so I couldn't see my fingers, and my eyes were all black.

Stupidly standing still, Zhan Zhao closed his eyes, and looked down again after his sight had almost adjusted to the darkness.Although there is not much effect, you can still see the outline when you focus.

A little contour is better than none at all.Zhan Zhao sighed and told himself to be content, and walked forward gropingly.Although I really wanted to get there sooner, the speed under my feet couldn't be faster.Silently telling himself not to rush, Zhan Zhao took a step sadly, every step now is a victory of history.

After moving a few steps, Zhan Zhao raised his head to identify the direction.As a result of looking around, Zhan Zhao stumbled again.

Zhan Zhao quickly turned his body sideways, hoping that he wouldn't fall too badly.In an instant, he suddenly felt that this scene was extremely familiar. He remembered that he almost fell over on the dark stairs in Kaifeng before.

But luckily, Bai Yutang was behind him last time, and he was taught a lesson that time.This time the old problem was repeated... Zhan Zhao lamented to himself, hoping that Bai Yutang would show up at this time, he was really too greedy.

Before the extra point in his heart could be shaken off, Zhan Zhao felt someone hug his waist, and then his whole body was pulled back forcefully.

Bai Yutang's panting was extremely loud, he probably ran over all the way.Being hugged by him, Zhan Zhao suddenly felt that he could really be a little more greedy, a little more greedy.

God gave me the capital to be greedy, and there is another person who made him greedy. I am really sorry for my innate condition if I am not greedy.

Before he had time to shout for a long time, Zhan Zhao was turned around forcefully.Being thrown dizzily, Zhan Zhao was surprised to find that it was pitch black, but Bai Yutang's anxious face could be seen clearly.

Bai Yutang took a deep breath, and said loudly to Zhan Zhao, "Can't you be more careful? How did I tell you before, watch your feet! Last time it was on the stairs, this time it was on flat ground. Are you You’re not happy if you don’t fall once, right? Besides, who’s going to let you leave me alone and run away first! How dare you run? Who’s going to let you leave me?”

Let Bai Yutang get angry, Zhan Zhao blinked his eyes, and only at this time Bai Yutang would say such a long series of words so excitedly...for him.Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao became proud.

The change in Zhan Zhao's expression was naturally noticed by Bai Yutang, who became even more angry.This cat is not only not introspective but also happy?He is still happy!

Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao's face angrily, "I'm teaching you a lesson now, can you correct my attitude and admit my mistake!"

"Yes!" Zhan Zhao stood at attention, looking at Bai Yutang dog-leggedly, "I know I was wrong, you keep saying it!"

"You..." Bai Yutang couldn't get angry with Zhan Zhao's playful attitude.Bai Yutang withdrew his hand in frustration, turned around and left.After being hit, there is nothing to love in life.

"Yutang, don't go! Don't go!" Seeing that Bai Yutang was about to leave, Zhan Zhao became impatient and ran after him.Before taking a few steps, he tripped again.

As soon as he heard Zhan Zhao's exclamation, Bai Yutang knew what was going on. He turned around and caught Zhan Zhao, and the movement was done in one go.

Zhan Zhao also lost his strength, and said awkwardly, "Hehe...the light is not good at night."

"Isn't it a cat? You can't see clearly at night, and you don't pay attention to your feet." Bai Yutang held his forehead helplessly, "I won't go. Ding Yuehua looked at Ding Yao, don't ask questions, just take it easy."

Zhan Zhao touched his head in embarrassment, and then muttered, "I was not careful just now, but it's really too dark here. I take every step carefully, why did you run over without tripping?"

"..." For the kitten who had completely lost his composure, it was really a waste of effort to tell him common sense.Bai Yutang took out the small flashlight that he carried with him.Ever since He Zhanzhao left the tomb, Bai Yutang has made it a habit to carry a flashlight with him.Just now when Zhan Zhao almost fell, the light went off with a shaking hand.

Looking at the bright light of the flashlight, Zhan Zhao suddenly felt as if his apprentice was choking his master to death... Although Bai Yutang was not his apprentice, he had nothing to teach Bai Yutang.

Looking at the bright flashlight in Bai Yutang's hand, and then at Bai Yutang's still darkened face, Zhan Zhao finally gave up and obediently admitted his mistake, "Fifth Bai, I know my mistake."

"Hey, walk by my side from now on." Bai Yutang urged.There can be no next time, and there is no need for a next time, even if he told Zhan Zhao to "be careful next time", Bai Yutang knew that Zhan Zhao would never be able to do it.

In this case, it's good for him to walk by Zhan Zhao's side.Even if Zhan Zhao was in danger tens of thousands of times, with him around, he would be able to hold him back again and again.

Zhan Zhao nodded again and again, "Yeah, I'll listen to you."

Only then did Bai Yutang feel happier, and he turned his attention to Zhan Zhao's reason for running away, "What are you doing here all of a sudden?"

"Didn't I say something was wrong here during the day?" Zhan Zhao spoke quickly, and Bai Yutang nodded.

"When Ding Yao was shining just now, I saw a faint light nearby. So I came over to take a look." While talking, Zhan Zhao stood on tiptoe to look for the light just now while supporting Bai Yutang, but this time, what happened? I couldn't find it, "It's strange, why is it gone?"

He hasn't found the source of the light yet, why is it just gone?

Without the light, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang stood in place, not knowing what to do.It was so dark again, how could he find anything.

Seeing Zhan Zhao's bewildered look, Bai Yutang sighed, "Come back in the daytime. Let's go back and see how Ding Yao and Ding Yuehua are doing now."

Zhan Zhao had no objection, and the two quickly returned to their original spot, only to see Ding Yuehua standing there holding Ding Yao.Ding Yao didn't shine any more.

"How is he?" Zhan Zhao asked worriedly.

"I don't know either. The light just now disappeared quickly, and Xiaoyao fell asleep." Ding Yuehua couldn't figure it out either.

The three of them didn't know what to say for a while.A gust of night wind blew by, and all three of them shivered.Bai Yutang suggested, "Let's go back first. It's not good to freeze the child. We'll talk about the rest tomorrow."

Ding Yuehua nodded.The three of them walked into the house.It was still calm outside, as if nothing had happened.
