Chapter 24 Make a Wish to the Dragon

In the middle of the sea of ​​stars, a person sat opposite to a pair of gloves, and the topic stopped at the "axe" mentioned by Xia Zhuo.

After a moment of silence, the two cards disintegrated into two balls of dust and disappeared.

When the two gloves were closed, a black card shining with gold powder was displayed in front of Xia Zhuo, and it continued to speak: "Then did you drop this [Wish Card]?"

Xia Zhuo's eyes immediately brightened, "Yes, it's mine."

White Gloves shrank back when he heard the words, "But this is not an axe."

Xia Zhuo: "..."

Xia Zhuo sneered pretentiously, "Hehe, I will report you for not returning the things you picked up."

The old voice choked, and said angrily: "What is your thing, what I picked up is mine."

Xia Zhuo watched helplessly that the countdown under the card began to flicker again, and it had reached single digits, so she quickly put her face on her buttocks, "It's all my fault, I shouldn't argue with you, can you pick it up for me?" , I can't even repay this kindness, I hereby express my highest gratitude to you, can you return it to me?"

The white glove snorted and said, "Take it, I'm just passing by, if you drop it next time, it will be gone."

Xia Zhuo quickly reached out and fished it back.Once this card was placed in his hand, he smiled playfully again, "Look at how sincere I was just now, according to the plot, shouldn't the other two cards be given to me as well?"

White gloves:"……"

White Gloves: "Why don't you return the one in your hand."

Xia Zhuo's eyes widened, "It's not going to work, how can there be any reason to snatch something back after picking it up and returning it to the owner? Hey, little condolences, how do you use this card?"

"Little Condom" choked, and said after a while: "...you give me the card, and I'll help you."

Xia Zhuo shook his head desperately, shaking himself dizzily, "No, I don't believe you, if you take the card away, I will die."

The white gloves said with a chuckle: "Death? You will still be dead if you don't give it to me."

Xia Zhuo frowned, "Trust between people is still necessary, but you don't look like a person."

White Gloves: "..." I think you're scolding me, but I can't refute it.

Seeing that the countdown was less than 5 minutes, Xia Zhuo finally sighed and handed the card back, "You can't lie to people to be puppies."

The white glove didn't bother to pay attention to him this time, took the card and handed it to his hand, and the palm-sized card gradually disappeared against the light watch.Xia Zhuo raised his wrist to look, and finally found a seam as thin as a needle's thickness at the bottom of the watch.

The white glove voice suddenly became proud and official: "Tell me, young man, what wish do you want to achieve?"

Xia Zhuo was dumbfounded: "Where is the dragon?"

The white gloves broke in a second: "Huh? What dragon? Do you want a dragon?"

"Didn't the card say that you can summon the dragon after using it?" Xia Zhuo looked around, and there were only those two gloves in front of him.He curled his lips, a little wanting to call to report the adulteration of the product information, which does not match the reality.

The white gloves tapped the air seriously: "Don't waste time, tell me quickly, after I finish speaking, I have to go to the next newcomer."

Xia Zhuo snorted: "You are working, do you have room and board, five social insurances and one housing fund, can internal personnel modify the points data through the back door?"

"..."

White Gloves was so angry that he turned around and dived into the waves to escape.

Xia Zhuo quickly reached out to grab it, and it felt wet and soft to the touch, like grabbing a handful of loach.

The creepy feeling made his whole body numb like an electric shock for a moment, he couldn't hold it back, his stomach was overwhelmed, he didn't even have time to say the words to persuade him to stay, and he vomited directly at the beautiful scenery under his feet.

White Gloves: "...you let go of me."

Xia Zhuoxu sat on the spot: "What are you afraid of, I won't wipe your mouth with you."

White Gloves hadn't thought of this at first, but he trembled when he heard it.

Xia Zhuo asked again: "Little Tongtao, you are the only employee in your unit responsible for recording?"

White Gloves was angry: "I have no obligation to answer you."

Xia Zhuo let go: "Then you have the time to chat with customers every time?"

"Hehe, you are the only one who threw the card down there."

Seeing that Xia Zhuo began to ponder again, it asked impatiently, "Do you want to make a wish!?"

"Xu, of course Xu." Xia Zhuo thought for a while, "I want to restore my memory, can this be realized?"

The left hand in the white glove unfolded a book with a soft light, and the right hand held a quill pen, and wrote, "Yes."

Xia Zhuo glanced at the book in its hand, and asked again: "Why did I come out of the dream and come here? Is it because I didn't make a wish?"

After finishing memorizing with white gloves, the notebook snapped shut, "No comment."

Xia Zhuo: "..." All right.

After dealing with Xia Zhuo, a troublesome customer, he quickly slipped away without saying hello.

"What are you doing so fast..." Xia Zhuo looked at the place where there were no gloves left, thinking that the day was not over yet.

After the wish is made, the person still stays here, so it seems that it is not a question of whether to make a wish or not.He was dazed for a while, and then used his nails to scratch the slit on the watch.

It's so boring, I really want to quickly fall into some dream.At least he stepped on the ground after entering, unlike now, he was worried every second whether he would fall down and become a tomato cake.

You won't be alone like this now.

He looked at the surrounding environment where light and dark were constantly alternating, until the light shining on him was a little orange, and suddenly a strong drowsiness eroded his whole body.Even though he could still see things in his eyes, his body seemed to be under the pressure of a ghost, and he couldn't move at all.

Xia Zhuo stiffly pressed against the invisible ground, looking at the warm color dyed in his palm, several incomplete picture fragments flashed in his mind.

He saw a man with a cane sitting on a luxurious sofa in a dimly lit room.

I don't know if it's too cold around or what, but the hand holding the handle of this person is trembling constantly. Judging from the amplitude, it can be seen that the owner of the cane is suppressing some emotions that are about to come out.

His eyesight is very low, he can't see the whole situation clearly, and he can't see the face of the person in front of him clearly.His body is very heavy, as if there is an iron ball hanging from his neck, but out of the corner of his eye, he can still see his hands on the ground, his knees together, his thin body looks like he might fall down at any time.

Xia Zhuo immediately understood that he was kneeling, which seemed to be a very reluctant but helpless kneeling method.

...No, why did you kneel down?Is it that serious?

He muttered in his heart, and vaguely heard a voice echoing in the quiet scene, it was very small and not clear.

Xia Zhuo held his breath, and took a breath to see who the person in front of him was, but his memory was broken at this point, and a sharp pain swept through his body, and his half-opened eyes closed immediately.He curled up in the air, holding his arms tightly, as if he would freeze to death in the icy snow if he let go.

His brows were frowned, and his tightly pursed lips trembled slightly, as if he was having a not-so-good nightmare.

I don't know how much time has passed, Xia Zhuo's face was pale, and fine sweat appeared on his forehead.He huddled into a ball and uttered a sobbing dream, "Please... I'm obedient, please..."

……

On the second day, Guan Yuzhou boarded the plane and returned home.

After three years, many familiar scenes have become unfamiliar. Even the airport when he left three years ago has been remodeled.Something happened to him before he left the country, and he should hide from the people he knew, so only Ms. Bai knew when he returned home, and there was no such thing as someone picking him up at the plane.

He didn't bring any luggage, and with his empty hands like a diner who went out for a stroll after dinner, he called a car and went to the nearest flower shop.

The wind chimes in front of the door were tinkling. There were no guests at this point, and the heating was not turned on enough, but it made the guests who had just come in from the cool breeze feel just right.

The proprietress wearing an apron was bending over to trim the red roses at the bottom of the flower stand. When she saw someone entering the store, she straightened up and raised a big smile, "Hello, do you want to buy flowers?"

Guan Yuzhou glanced around: "Is there a moonlight flower?"

The proprietress looked at her husband who was sitting at the cash register with some embarrassment. After the two exchanged the same look, the middle-aged man grabbed a wet towel and wiped his hands, then went around and explained: "Sir, Moonlight Flower is a flower shop here. They won’t be put up for sale, not to mention that this kind of plant likes the tropics, and no one wants to deliberately cultivate it in this season. Why don’t you tell me who you want to give it to, and we can recommend you one with similar meanings?”

"Where's the hornflower?"

The middle-aged man laughed dryly: "...I don't have this either, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Guan Yuzhou didn't say anything, and his expression seemed a little dissatisfied.

The boss has been in the shop for more than ten years, and he hasn't seen any customers. He didn't panic when he saw someone like Guan Yuzhou, and immediately continued with a smile: "Don't think my shop is small, the flowers are grown by me and my wife, don't tell me There are all kinds of flowers, but they can also be related to all kinds of meanings. You see, do you want to send this flower to your lover or family, or... what kind of friend?"

"spouse."

As soon as it is given to a lover, it will be easy to handle.The boss beckoned, took the photo album that the lady boss took from the table, and handed it to the young man in a suit and leather shoes in front of him, "The flowers on it are all wrapped in our shop, some are for marriage proposals, and some are specially used for weddings. Ordered. Many guests came on Valentine’s Day. My wife said that sending flowers is a science, and you can’t send them the same. It’s like love. Whoever is in the heart is unique. If you don’t mind , you can talk to us about your requirements, or choose one you like from here, and my wife will redesign it for you, both of us graduated from the design institute, we guarantee that your lover will be satisfied."

Guan Yuzhou took it and flipped it over hastily.

He hasn't touched flowers for three years, but he has a lot of experience in sending them out a few years ago.The bouquets in the photo are brightly colored and indeed everything can be called a work of art.

Seeing that he hadn't made any request for a long time, the boss rubbed his hands, pointed to the picture and introduced him personally: "Most of them are sending roses, which are well-behaved and the least error-prone. Roses are the most important representative of loyalty. If you don’t like it, you can also take a look at the champagne roses in our store, and the eucalyptus leaf looks elegant and soft in color... May I ask, did you give it to your lover for a proposal, or for a commemoration?”

Guan Yuzhou looked down at the cream color in the photo, "My lover is dead."

Co-authoring is not a marriage proposal or a small surprise in life from time to time, but to send to the grave.

The boss was stunned and dared not speak for a while.

Anyone who does business knows how to watch words and expressions.He carefully glanced at the customer in front of him, and saw that although he didn't seem to be in a good mood, he was not in a bad mood, so he bravely closed the colorful photo album, "White Lily, Calla Lily and Bird of Paradise are also available in the store. , or just picked a batch of white roses from the garden this morning, but I think you are young and it is not appropriate to send white roses, why don't I show you the lilies in the store?"

He carefully said every word, and swallowed the sentence "Your lover must not be old", for fear of touching the sad point of the person in front of him.

"Lily and Bird of Paradise looked at wrapping a bunch." Guan Yuzhou was not unhappy at all. He looked at the boss who moved his back to the cashier stiffly and said again: "Bring another bouquet of champagne roses."

The boss quickly responded: "Sure, you can go next door and have a cup of coffee, and come back around five o'clock to pick up flowers."

Guan Yuzhou didn't say whether he wanted to drink coffee, he took out his wallet to pay, and glanced at several cards of different styles on the iron shelf beside him inadvertently.

The proprietress has been paying attention to him. Seeing that he seems to be interested in the card, she stepped forward to introduce a few words and asked him: "Do you need a card?"

Guan Yuzhou thought for a while, reached out and flicked through the season cards a few times, and found a card with a picture of Xia Ri Qingtan at the end, "Take one."

The proprietress took the card, and when she saw Guan Yuzhou went to take out her wallet again, she quickly waved her hand: "This is for you, so you don't have to pay."

"Thank you." Guan Yuzhou was not polite, he looked at the time, thinking that he could go to the next door and wait for a while before five o'clock.Both the proprietress and the boss went to work, and he didn't intend to stay here for a long time. He raised his leg and turned around, and the wind chimes at the door rang again.

The proprietress called him: "I forgot to ask you, what do you need to write on the card?"

"There's nothing to write."

Of course, it is everyone's right to write or not to write blessings. The proprietress didn't say much, but added: "You can write down the name of the flower receiver, so that your lover can know that the flowers are for her. There is also a flower in the lower right corner. You can leave your name, so that when your lover receives the flowers, he can see that you gave them to her."

"I don't need to keep my name, if the flower receiver..." Guan Yuzhou pushed open the door, a cold wind from outside slipped in, shaking the flowers and leaves at his feet, "Just write Miaomiao, Bibo Miaomiao Miao."
