"You let me stroke it."
Fang Xiaoqing, who was patrolling the street with Xiao Zhengyi, rubbed her temples, feeling a little headache.
Things started last night.
Because the night before yesterday, Xiao Zhengyi poured out all the words he buried in his heart to Fang Xiaoqing. If they were put in a romantic drama, it was probably an opportunity for the two of them to quickly warm up and even directly break through the shackles of friendship.
But in fact, after that, the atmosphere between the two became weird instead.
Xiao Zhengyi felt very ashamed of his gaffe that day, so he avoided the other party intentionally or unintentionally; Fang Xiaoqing, because her family overprotected her, this was the first time she had such close contact with a friend of the opposite sex. know what to do.
So the two of them were spinning perfectly like a motor without bearings.
It was the same last night, Xiao Zhengyi tried to stagger with Fang Xiaoqing when he was on the night shift on the pretext of going out to buy supper.
In the end, he never returned, leaving Fang Xiaoqing foolishly waiting for the nonexistent supper...
This morning, the girl who was so angry because Xiao Zhengyi put pigeons on her went directly to the other party and decided to be open and honest with Xiao Zhengyi.
Before he could speak, he found that Xiao Zhengyi's right arm was wrapped with a thick bandage up to the fingertips.
Reminiscent of Xiao Zhengyi's physique of being involved in dangerous situations, either actively or passively, for various reasons, the girl immediately became nervous, and even forgot to complain to him, and kept asking him what happened.
Seeing that Xiao Zhengyi couldn't hide it - well, in fact, this guy didn't intend to hide it - so he explained to Fang Xiaoqing what happened yesterday in full.
"That is to say, you went out to buy a late-night snack yesterday, and you ran into your sister who had been dead for ten years, and then for various reasons, you were involved in a zombie crisis like a biochemical machine, and in the end you were possessed by someone. Yes, and then Mr. Xu appeared and rescued you, in order to be able to reunite with your sister, you chose to give up your right hand and put on a prosthesis, right?"
Fang Xiaoqing sorted out Xiao Zhengyi's words, and concluded: "I don't quite understand the ritual about the prosthetic limb you mentioned later..."
"In that case, I'm actually not very clear."
Xiao Zhengyi scratched his face with his left hand, and replied with a dry smile: "However, the function of the ceremony itself is to hide the consciousness of the world."
"Because the soul of the deceased stays in the world for too long, it will turn into a wraith. There are two main reasons for the wraith to turn into a wraith. One is the rules of the world itself; the other is that the soul itself will change after it leaves the body. So if you want to solve this problem, you have to solve these two problems at the same time.”
"The solution to the first problem is the ritual: to create a vessel that allows the soul of the dead to reside in it, but this behavior will be disgusted by the world, and the form of expression is the so-called 'karma'. Then cover the world Recognition, and exchange the existence of the essence of that vessel with my right hand, and remove the enchantment that blinds the world, the world will misjudge my right hand as that vessel, and Lao Xu and the others strengthen the level of karma, It directly summoned the blow of the world, that is, the tribulation thunder. My right hand was naturally wiped out under the tribulation thunder, but the vessel in which Ruo Ying's soul was lodged was classified as destroyed in the world, that is, "no Exist’. In this way, as long as the world no longer discovers the existence of Ruoying, she will not become a ghost because of the first reason.”
"Then what about the second question?" Fang Xiaoqing stroked it carefully, but still didn't understand, so she decided to ask a simpler question.
"That's it," Xiao Zhengyi raised his right hand, which had been bandaged several times: "After that, Old Xu asked Jasmine to cut off a part of my soul and use it as a raw material to lodge in my hand. Ruo Ying was disguised, and then Ruo Ying's soul will appear as the part of my soul that was cut off, and share an "existence" with me. can be controlled."
"That is to say, you and your sister lived together?"
Fang Xiaoqing concluded.
"Well, theoretically it is true." Xiao Zhengyi nodded.
"Why do I always feel that there is a taste of German orthopedics..."
"Don't think so dirty, please. Ruoying and I are just a simple family relationship!" Xiao Zhengyi said righteously: "And according to what Old Xu said, he asked Jasmine to leave a spell in my prosthetic limb. Sakura will become my child... Although the memory will not be inherited, and the expression of family affection will be different, but at least I can continue to be a family."
"Is the first child your sister? I always feel a little weird..."
Fang Xiaoqing tilted her head and muttered.
Then she found that Xiao Zhengyi was looking at her in surprise.
It took about three seconds for the girl to figure out what she had just said, and her face turned red all of a sudden.
"I, my that... No, that's not what I mean!" She stammered and defended: "Wait, wait a minute! What are you surprised! Who is going to have a baby with you... I didn't say it was my daughter... Although I do like my daughter better... No, no, what I want to say is... Yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
The chatter became more and more chaotic, and finally the shamed and indignant girl ran out yelling.
Xiao Zhengyi wanted to chase after him, but his whole body was sore from last night's incident. In addition, a small piece of his soul was cut off, and he also felt very empty on the spiritual level. He couldn't run at all, he could only watch helplessly. Follow each other away...
"Really, obviously I didn't say anything."
Xiao Zhengyi sighed and could only continue patrolling alone.
Suddenly, a girl who passed by him called out to stop him.
"Mr. Police Officer, I want to ask for directions."
"OK… "
Xiao Zhengyi replied subconsciously, and then he noticed the strangeness of the other party.
Jiang Jin has entered the cold winter. In this season when everyone on the street is wearing down jackets, the other party is wearing a thin violet silk long skirt, with most of his forearms as white as tender lotus root exposed, and his feet are wearing High-heeled leather boots, with rhinestones (?) on the pointed uppers inlaid with flowers.
In addition, the strange wooden staff behind her, and the rare lavender long hair are also surprising, at least Xiao Zhengyi has never seen anyone dyed this color.
What's even weirder is that Xiao Zhengyi found that he didn't seem to be able to notice the other person's appearance even though he clearly saw the other person's face. He even had the feeling that as long as he took his eyes off the other person, he might immediately Forget about each other's looks!
Later, Xiao Zhengyi suddenly realized that such a strange person passed him by, but if the other party hadn't taken the initiative to call him, he would not even have noticed the other party's existence from the beginning to the end!
As if not noticing Xiao Zhengyi's vigilance, the girl stared at the police officer with her eyes as bright as stars, and asked in a pleasant tone.
"Do you know how to get to 'Sakura Apartment'?"
