The next morning, a bright black Bentley drove towards the gray building in a special place, then the car stopped steadily, and Zhou Hui got out with the little phoenix in his arms.
Boss Zhou wears a motorcycle leather jacket, sunglasses, and long legs. Everywhere he stands, he brings his own Hollywood blockbuster Micron and BGM. What was different from usual was that today he was carrying a few shopping bags in one hand and a child in the other. He was about five or six years old. He was wrapped in a shirt of Zhou Hui, and he wore a pair of adult sunglasses on his exposed face. , because the frame is too large and can only be hung diagonally on the face, as if there is a risk of falling off at any time.
The two guards at the gate flashed countless guesses of the Korean drama at eight o'clock in an instant, and their eyes immediately released gossip: "Boss Zhou, this child is yours..."
Zhou Hui said solemnly, "Call the fourth group leader."
The guard almost stared his eyes out of the window, only to see the fourth team leader looking back blankly behind the sunglasses, tilting his head, and innocently said: "... Well?"
Zhou Hui carried Little Phoenix all the way through the hall of the unit, towards his office.
Following his footsteps, countless scandals of ups and downs centered on him, flying from all directions to every corner of the 547 unit, as fast as a 10TB per second optical fiber network signal. Before Zhou Hui stepped into the office, the two young men at the door put down their phones and looked at the little phoenix with astonished eyes: "Boss Zhou, this is..."
Zhou Hui said, "The fourth group leader."
Zhou Hui walked into the office under the disbelief of his subordinates, and closed the door with a bang.
·
"Sit down, don't move, let's change your clothes... Little Phoenix!" Zhou Hui said with a headache while holding the children's clothes: "Come back and sit down!"
As soon as the little phoenix was put into the high armchair, it slid down and started running wildly. The little bird of this age has fully revealed the potential of being lively, active and curious. Although Zhou Hui's big shirt was dragged to the ground, which seriously affected the convenience of movement, the figure of the little phoenix was simply carried away, and it was easy to snort. He flew from the office to the tea room, and then flew from the tea room to the matching lounge. When Zhou Hui rushed over, he saw that he was trying to climb up the wardrobe. Standing at the door, he could just see his little butt. Climbing movements are twisted and twisted.
"Little Phoenix!" Zhou Hui tried to hold him down: "Stop climbing, change your clothes first!"
Little Phoenix likes heights almost instinctively, and immediately broke free from Zhou Hui and started to climb up again.
Zhou Hui was almost helpless. He stuffed the children's clothes into his pockets, forcibly took the little phoenix down with both hands and pressed him onto the big bed, and pressed his knees to prevent him from breaking free. Take off the big shirt.
That was what Zhou Hui casually wrapped around him when he went out this morning. He rushed into the mall early in the morning to buy a few sets of children's clothes, and only had a chance to change them when he got to the office. Who knew that Xiao Fenghuang was very dependent on clothes with Zhou Hui's smell. While pushing Zhou Hui's hand with all his strength, he cried loudly and was beaten to death for not wanting to wear new clothes.
There was a lot of commotion here, and the door to the outer office over there was pushed open. Yu Jingzhong probed in and said, "Comrade Zhou, everyone outside is saying that you are behind Feng Si's back, and you have brought an illegitimate child to work..."
The voice stopped abruptly, and Yu Jingzhong stared dumbfounded at the little Phoenix who was crying naked on the big bed in the inner room, and Zhou Hui, who was holding his clothes in his hands and pressing him down from a height.
"This is not my illegitimate child! What are you doing? Tell me if you have something to say, I'm busy!"
"..." Yu Jingzhong's entire three views were refreshed, and he shivered after a while: "Zhou, Zhou Hui, you can't do this, it's illegal, it's too perverted..."
"What's the matter?" Zhang Shun stuck his head out from behind Yu Jingzhong: "I just said that Zhou Hui can't do it... Zhou Hui! What are you doing?! You are a beast!!!"
·
Ten minutes later, Zhou Hui covered his nose with a towel dipped in cold water, and let out a long breath while sitting on the sofa.
Little Phoenix finally put on children's clothes, sat obediently in his arms, and looked up at him eagerly.
"Zhang Shun, you are too impulsive. You have to ask the situation clearly before you take action. Wan Zhouhui is actually not a pedophile..." Yu Fu suddenly thought that it was difficult to say whether Zhou Hui was a pedophile or not, so he touched his nose and coughed awkwardly: "... In case he's not actually doing what you imagined... It's always bad to hurt someone rashly. Don't do this next time."
Zhang Shun occupied an entire sofa on the opposite side by himself, pointing to his dark eyes and asking with grief and indignation, "Then what do I say?!"
Yu Jingzhong comforted: "You were taught by your brother personally, what can you say?"
The little phoenix immediately turned back and bared his teeth at Zhang Shun, full of threats. If you dare to move Zhou Hui's finger again, I will teach you why Hua'er is so red.
The human world is so cruel. In order to defend his brother's backyard, Zhang Ershao took a lesson from Boss Zhou, who was suspected of being out of the wall. As a result, he was immediately taught a lesson by his brother. The Buddha's heart made of glass suddenly shattered into pieces. .
"My dear, it doesn't hurt anymore, it really doesn't hurt anymore..." Zhou Hui hugged Little Phoenix and kissed and kissed, carefully straightening his messy sideburns, and said softly, "I'll discuss something with Vice Yu, yourself. Let's go play first, okay?"
Xiao Fenghuang hugged Zhou Hui's neck and turned to look at Zhang Shun, meaning what would happen if this person bullied you again
Zhang Shun's broken Buddha's heart has a tendency to be turned into powder, Zhou Hui quickly promised: "It's okay, he won't dare to be beaten by you, really won't dare. If he dares to come, I will be rude to him. ,How about it?"
Zhang Shun's handsome face was instantly blackened, and he thought that this surnamed Zhou is really not a good thing, and he cheated my brother away so quickly. It's really forgivable that Shakya wanted to kill him... Damn, Shi Why didn't Ka succeed? I haven't killed this monster for so many years. It's really not wrong to kill this weak force like a pseudo-Buddha!
However, Little Phoenix couldn't get Buddha's mental activity at all. Zhou Hui coaxed him for a long time before he nodded aggrievedly.
"My brother is glaring at me! He is still glaring at me!" Zhang Shun grabbed Yu Jingzhong and said incredulously: "He has been completely deceived by Zhou Hui! He even glared at me for Zhou Hui!"
"He beat you up to the Buddha just now for Zhou Hui's sake." Yu Jingzhong comforted: "Just stare at it, you can always get used to it in the future..."
·
Zhou Hui didn't want to carry Little Phoenix upstairs to attract more crowds, so he carried him to Feng Si's office.
The office of the fourth national security team leader is a well-known restricted area, and there is an internal elevator to reach it. The reason why it is a restricted area is that when the Phoenix Ming Wang occasionally came to the office to order Mao, the old chiefs of the Military Commission would come tremblingly to offer incense, make wishes, and ask for signatures, so that the office was filled with cigarettes all the year round, and it was very feudal and superstitious activities. color.
Although it has not been used for a long time, Yu Jingzhong often asks people to clean, and the office is still very clean. The floor was covered with a gray carpet, a row of large sofas against the wall, and a few pots of half-dry plants on the windowsill. The scriptures and a few tortoise shells were randomly thrown on the table—that was something that Phoenix Ming used to use to pass the time when he was bored.
Zhou Hui hugged Little Phoenix onto the sofa, stuffed him with a children's picture book he just bought from a children's clothing store, and said with a smile, "I'll come pick you up in half an hour, okay?"
Little Phoenix rubbed his fingers, twisted his soft little body, and nodded lightly after a while.
Zhou Hui stood up, took two steps back and suddenly stopped again.
"This is... your former office. After the Mahabharata, we came to the human world and began to slowly help you repay your merits. After joining the special section with Deputy Yu, your office was arranged here. We used to close the door here. Dating… "
"Later, when you were growing ginseng here, Situ Yingzhi and Jiuweihu sneaked in and ate them all. You turned around and buried a radish in the soil in an attempt to get away with it. After you found out, you chased him out for a few miles... "
Little Phoenix stared blankly at Zhou Hui.
"Forget it." Zhou Hui laughed and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't remember it, it's better than anything else if you're happy."
He bent down and rubbed Xiao Fenghuang's soft and smooth hair, and kissed him on the top of his head again: "You'll be back in half an hour, be good." Then he turned around and walked out, closing the door.
·
With a click, Little Phoenix looked at the closed door with doubts in his eyes.
After a while, he raised his head and looked around blankly.
The office of the team leader of Guoan Group 6 has a very personal style. For example, Zhou Hui seems to be so free of arrogant personality, but the office space is rigid, mahogany desks, chairs, screens, landscapes, and the heaven and earth array is set up under his own eyes to guard at any time. Don't go wrong at the critical moment. Although Wu Bei stayed in the Northeast all the year round to be the big brother of the underworld, but every time he went to Kyoto, he would bring some bizarre weapons of mass destruction. Over time, the office became a showroom of guns and equipment, and even Yu Fu sometimes sneaked in to steal some. out of the house.
There are two wardrobes in Situ Yingzhi's office. One is huge, and it is full of all kinds of big-name clothes and European haute couture. Because it is too showy, he is ridiculed by Shen Wantian all the year round; the other small wardrobe is locked all year round. It has never been opened in front of people, and it was rumored that the wardrobe was actually a large refrigerator, stuffed with human flesh and blood plasma that was hoarded as food.
Later, Zhou Hui went in to investigate, and came out to tell Yu Fu secretly that it was actually imitation human skin. After a period of time, the skin of the zombies could not be used. replacement when.
The office of Shenwantiansi is polarized. The outside is an exhibition hall for out-of-print animations and peripheral figures. The inside is built into small honeycomb-like spaces, all of which are caves for Tibetan scriptures. A special constant temperature environment with static electricity is used to store many precious treasures. Books and calligraphy. It is said that after the fifth deputy leader Yangjin Pingcuo was executed, Shen Wantian personally went to Tibet to copy his property and transported it back to the office of a large number of Tibetan Buddhist treasures.
As for the nine-tailed fox, there is nothing to say. She buys, buys, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, eats, dresses, jewelry, bags, and has no office area. In her words, "my existence is work!" Added a lot of work to others...
Chu He's stay in Guoan was actually very short, and he defected twice in the middle, and the number of times he stayed in the office was even more rare. He seems to be the least concerned about the office. It's all in the usual environment, with bookcases, sofas, pantries, a tall flower stand by the window, and a wardrobe in the lounge, but it's much smaller than Situ Yingzhi's, and there are only a few in it. Hanging a few shirts and two replacement casual suits.
Little Phoenix climbed to the top of the flower stand and looked down at the entire office.
The sun shines in from the window, like a thin layer of golden veil, flying in the silent room, and even the slightest dust floating in the air is clearly visible.
The window ridges in the sunlight cast vertical and horizontal light and shadow on the table, which gradually moves and elongates as the sun rises. The armchair by the desk was opened halfway, empty, as if someone had left and never came back.
An indescribably strong emotion suddenly surged from the bottom of Little Phoenix's heart, like deep water, it instantly drowned him.
So heavy, so cold.
He even forgot to breathe for a moment.
Little Phoenix didn't know that this feeling was called loneliness. He didn't even know that it was because his own soul had been left in this place before, so strong that after a few years, he had traveled through time to come to him now. .
He stared blankly at the armchair, and gradually felt a phantom in the air, sitting at the desk with his back to him.
- That is a very good-looking man, even if he can't see his face from behind, just a back view can give people this clear feeling.
His sitting posture is tall and straight, a section of white to almost transparent back of the neck is exposed behind the black hair, and the shoulders are naturally slightly drooping. The figure wrapped in the white robe is thin, and the waist seal is embroidered with a faint and complicated phoenix pattern with dark white threads.
He lay down at the table and wrote something, and after a long while he finally put down his pen, sighed, and closed the book.
Little Phoenix was lying on the flower stand behind him, struggling to see that it was a very worn and yellowed thread-bound book, the cover was a faded dark blue, and there were three words written with a brush on it - hug the corpse, because of the age For a long time, even the ink color has faded.
The man threw the thread-bound book into the drawer, stood up, left the desk and walked towards the inner room.
The moment he turned around, Xiao Fenghuang finally saw his face, and he felt a little dazed for a moment.
It's not just because his face has an indescribably intricate beauty, like a work of art that can shine in the dark; it's not because of the suffocating, forbearance in his eyes. Restrained sadness.
It was because that face was very familiar to Little Phoenix.
He knew it was his face when he grew up.
The man walked to the inner room, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling mirror, reached out and stroked the smooth and cold mirror surface lightly, and let out a long and thorough breath.
In the next second, his face suddenly changed as if he was wearing a mask, becoming a completely different face!
Xiao Fenghuang widened his eyes in surprise, only to see his changed eyebrows and eyes, pale complexion, and slightly dry lips like blood loss; his facial bones were slightly dislocated, making his profile look flat and cool. Thin feel.
The only thing that hasn't changed is his eyes. Although even the shape of his eyes has changed, his eyes are as sharp and clear as before, and there is a heaviness that is hard to detect in the depths.
The man unbuttoned his coat, and the white robe fell to the ground.
He just stood naked in front of the mirror with no expression, and took out the replacement clothes from the closet. It was an open black suit without a tie. The white shirt had two buttons slightly open. It was worn by a very ordinary office worker. He picked up the card clip from the bedside table and stuffed it into his trouser pocket. He was not wearing shoes. feet on the floor.
He looked like a different person, like a company executive who was about to leave for work, with a serious and uninteresting face. Even the people closest to him may not be able to recognize his true face.
"Are you ready, His Royal Highness Prince Ming?"
Little Phoenix was startled, only to realize that there was another person in the inner room at some point!
—I saw that it was a tall man in a black robe, leaning on the door frame, obviously a great demon at the level of King Asura. The demonic breath in the whole body seemed to have substance, and a black flame-like shadow emanated in the air. The cold aura made the little phoenix, whose divinity had not yet fully recovered, very uncomfortable, and immediately shrank back on the flower stand.
I saw His Royal Highness Duke Ming said lightly: "Okay, let's go."
"Aren't you going to say goodbye to your friends? You won't be able to come back if you go."
"No need."
Phoenix Ming walked out of the door and passed Asura.
Asura turned his head and saw that he walked to the door, bent over to change his shoes, and didn't even look back.
"Aren't you tired of being so cold all year round?" King Asura touched his chin and seemed to be interested: "Or if you get used to it, you can't let it go, and you don't even bother to follow things that are destined to be gone forever. Someone say hello?"
King Phoenix Ming said, "What are you doing so interested in?"
"Because I find it strange. King Phoenix Ming, who has always been aloof, is really as indifferent and self-contained as rumored, and he is too lazy to say goodbye when he is saying goodbye - or do you think it is unnecessary, because there is still a secret way back?"
Phoenix changed his shoes, straightened up, and did not answer for a long time.
King Ashura just stared at his back like this, as if he didn't let go of every breath change and muscle tension.
"...You think too much," Phoenix finally said after a while.
"I just don't have any friends. Even if I pass Nirvana one day, no one will remember it."
He opened the door of the office and went out. Behind him, a bit of surprise, suspicion, and finally a subtle malicious expression appeared on the face of the Asura King; he finally sneered and shook his head, turned around and followed him, and also walked out of the office.
·
The door closed again, and with a click, Little Phoenix suddenly woke up from the trance-like state.
He was stunned for a long time, thinking what is this? Is it me
Is this my memory before Nirvana
Little Phoenix blinked, his mind blank. Countless light and shadows of memories seemed to pass from the depths of the soul. Just when I was about to reach out to capture it, it was like a mirror and the moon was broken at the touch of a touch, and all the feelings disappeared in an instant.
"… "
Xiao Fenghuang suddenly thought of something and took a breath, only to feel a slight and rapid heartbeat in his chest. He immediately climbed down from the flower stand gently, ran to the desk, pulled out the chair and climbed up, then opened the drawer—
Little Phoenix's pupils instantly shrank.
I saw an old book lying quietly in the drawer, it was "Holding a Corpse"!
Chapter 74 Please wait for me to go upstream from the long river of memory and come back to you as an old friend
office. Zhou Hui closed the door with a backhand, and immediately reached out: "Quick, quick, give me a cigarette!"
Yu Jingzhong hurriedly touched a red panda and handed it over. Zhou Hui ignited it with a snap, and took a deep breath: "Whoo... you're choking me to death. You look at me, just smoke this one."
From the egg to the chick, the little phoenix couldn't leave anyone in the middle of the process, so Zhou Hui endured his craving for cigarettes until now, and finally managed to keep the little phoenix out of sight for half an hour. Just like this, he didn't dare to smoke too much because he was afraid that the smell of smoke would not dissipate in half an hour.
Yu Jingzhong and Zhang Shun both stared at him with speechless eyes, and after a while Zhang Shun suddenly gloated: "...I suddenly remembered that it may take thousands of years for my brother to grow from childhood to adulthood, so you are alone. Empty boudoir time tsk tsk tsk…”
"Brother-in-law," Zhou Hui said gloomily, "I'm someone who has killed a Buddha once, are you sure you want to flirt again?"
Zhang Shun immediately turned his head and stopped talking.
Yu Jingzhong rounded up the game hahaha, introduced the current situation of Guoan Group 6 to the two long-term absentees, discussed how everyone will rotate in the future and the geographical distribution, and focused on the introduction of the fifth group that is now empty. The fourth group without the leader.
Zhou Hui said as a matter of course: "Garduro. Garuda is just a brick, and it needs to be moved wherever it is needed. In the future, the task of recruiting and training out field workers will be handed over to him. The salary should be appropriately increased, and it will be increased by five more every month. A hundred bucks will do…”
Deputy Yu said, "I was just about to ask you, but the other day they took me to ask how Garuda compares to King Phoenix Ming?"
"What's up? My second kid is a fool, what's up?"
"..." The corner of Yu Fu's mouth twitched slightly, and he said, "What is the degree of fulfillment of the wish... Phoenix is not the real king of Ming Dynasty. Those big guys have nothing to do to make a wish. They asked the National Development and Reform Commission if the oil price should be raised, and how much? The times are very effective. I just wanted to ask if the Dapeng Golden Bird also has corresponding functions.
Zhou Hui said: "Oh, it won't work to find Garuda, you should go to Little Phoenix. Put him in the stroller and tie him with a safety harness, otherwise he will run around, set up a futon below for people to offer incense... Remember to ask for fresh milk, candy and honey for the tribute, and he doesn't dare to let him eat more chocolate, for fear that he won't be able to sleep at night."
Yu Jingzhong nodded and wrote it down, while Zhang Shun suddenly quit: "Why can't you eat chocolate?"
"… what?"
"When I was young, my brother often bought chocolate for me to eat! Milk chocolate will obviously be fine!" Zhang Shun said excitedly, "I can't bear to spend money, just say it, why don't you even eat chocolate?!"
"Can you take care of my brother like this! My brother is too young to know now, no matter how much money a man has! It's true to spend money on him!" Zhang Shun grabbed his eyes with a dark eye socket. The opportunity put anger on Zhou Hui's head: "I couldn't bear to buy chocolate and cheated my brother away. Such a stingy man should be paying attention to the rhythm of solitary life!"
There was something wrong with Zhou Hui's whole person, staring at his brother-in-law who was filled with righteous indignation for a long time.
After a long while, he turned to Yu Fu and said, "Tell them to bring chocolate when they come to incense... try to bring white chocolate as much as possible."
Yu Jingzhong: "..."
At this time, the door was knocked twice, and then pushed open. Garuda probed in and looked curiously at the black-eyed Buddha and Yu Fu who was full of black lines, and then asked, "Father? Did you take away the key to your mother's office?"
Garuda finally stopped wearing his old sports T-shirt - but Dapeng Jinniao was frugal and self-absorbed. He took his dad's credit card and only went to the mall to buy a set of discounted shirts and jeans. The cheap snake just came back from eating and found that he was locked outside the office of the fourth team leader.
"Oh," Zhou Hui said casually, "your mother is learning to paint there, don't bother him...Is the restaurant downstairs open? Get me a takeaway."
Garuda turned around and left, took two steps and looked back suspiciously: "Is your mother learning to paint inside?"
"uh-huh."
"Mother transformed?!"
Before Zhou Hui could react, Garuda raised his feet and ran upstairs, Zhou Hui immediately jumped up and said angrily: "Your mother is mine! Don't keep looking for him if you have nothing to do! Hey, don't talk nonsense in front of your mother. !"
In Zhou Hui's eyes, Garuda's suit is like a season old shirt. Who knows if Little Phoenix will see it in his eyes and keep it in his heart. When his memory suddenly recovers, Zhou Hui will be stripped and kicked out. The family seeks revenge for the younger son. Helpless, Garuda ran up like his mother, and the figure disappeared in an instant. Zhou Hui was about to chase after him, but suddenly there was a dull sound above his head - Boom!
Yu Jingzhong stood up suddenly: "What's wrong?"
boom!
The ceiling rustled, and fine dust fell.
Zhang Shun suddenly changed his face and said, "—Upstairs!"
A few people rushed out of the office, went up the stairs, and locked their direction almost immediately following the vibration—it was Chu He's office upstairs, which was directly connected by the internal elevator.
Many people poured out of the office, looking around in amazement. Zhou Hui pushed the crowd away, rushed up the stairs in three steps and two steps, ran directly to the door, and shouted, "Little Phoenix!"
"Call a few people to stop the restricted area, and don't let everyone run up." Deputy Yu gave a random order, and then stepped forward, only to hear a vibration when he settled down - Boom!
Yu Jingzhong's first reaction was an earthquake, or the foundation was being laid in the house. With this sound, Zhou Hui's face immediately turned ashen, and he lifted his leg and kicked the door with a kick—Bah!
The door slammed into the wall heavily, but did not bounce back. It shattered into several pieces on the spot, and the blazing heat instantly caused several people to step back at the same time. Under the strong light, Yu Jingzhong's retina was blank for several seconds. After a while, his vision gradually recovered. The movement in the room turned out not to be an earthquake, but a fire!
—Little Phoenix knelt on the ground in pain, clutching an old dark blue thread-bound book in his hand, which was so wrinkled that he couldn’t see its true colors. He was surrounded by flaming golden and red flames, and rushed to the roof like some kind of ferocious ancient monster, and then made an explosion-like roar.
Zhou Hui was about to rush over on the spot, but Zhang Shun stopped him: "Wait!"
Yu Jingzhong shouted: "No! Why is there no temperature?!"
"The mortal body can't feel that kind of temperature!" Zhang Shun said loudly in the roar, "Wait, maybe it's the fire of Nirvana that didn't burn out last time!"
I saw that the flames almost filled the whole room, turning it into a world of fire. The strange thing is that apart from the strong light making it impossible to open your eyes, the temperature of the air did not rise at all, and the surging airflow rammed through the flames, pushing Zhou Hui back, who had broken free from Zhang Shun and wanted to rush in.
"Phoenix! How about you, Phoenix! Feng Si!" Zhou Hui threw Zhang Shun hard with his backhand and yelled, "Fuck! What the hell is going on!"
At this moment, Xiao Fenghuang finally couldn't help but let out a painful cry, his fingers twitched and clenched tightly, tearing the thread book abruptly!
— A crisp sound of sting, so slight in the crackling flames, yet so clear.
The next moment, a figure in white clothes with wide sleeves and long wavy hair suddenly rose from the torn and burning paper, and appeared in front of the little phoenix!
"Brother... Brother?!" Zhang Shunzheng staggered a few steps by Zhou Hui's push, and when he saw the phantom, he immediately said, "Brother?!"
Zhou Hui looked up and was stunned.
In the void, only the silhouette of an adult phoenix could be seen, his head bowed slightly, thin and lonely.
Little Phoenix raised his head, the tears on his white and tender face were still dry, and he stared blankly at his adult self, with a dazed look in his eyes due to the severe pain; while King Phoenix Ming leaned down and looked at him motionless for a long while. Reaching out his hand in the firelight, caressing the tender and soft cheeks of the child, and then showing a smile.
"… "
He murmured something, but it was so far away that the firelight drowned out all the whispers.
Immediately afterwards, his phantom came down from the sky, and instantly disappeared into Little Phoenix's body!
Zhou Hui's pupils tightened like needles: "Phoenix!"
The fire was abruptly stopped, then quickly sucked away, and completely disappeared in the whistling air within a few seconds, as if nothing had happened.
Zhou Hui finally rushed up with a single stride, grabbed Little Phoenix and wanted to hug him, but he stumbled and fell to the ground!
"What's the matter? How are you? What's wrong?" Zhou Hui grabbed Xiao Fenghuang's face, forcibly opened his eyelids with his hands, and at the same time pinched him into a coma. However, the whole body of Little Phoenix was in convulsions, and almost immediately broke free in pain. The little body was tightly curled into a ball in the trembling, and it took a long while to grab Zhou Hui's sleeves.
Zhou Hui held his cold fingers with his backhand, his heart was cut like a knife. Out of the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of the half-burned thread-bound book on the ground, and he saw three words written on it—
Hold the corpse.
That's Phoenix's diary!
"Zhou... Zhou... Zhou Hui... "
Little Phoenix gasped for breath, cold sweat rolled down his pale cheeks, and his voice was hoarse and weak: "You...you wait...you wait..."
He hadn't spoken since he was born, the pronunciation of those few words was very jerky and difficult, Zhou Hui leaned over to his mouth, barely able to hear what he said: "Wait...wait for me, don't go, I'll... "
"I will soon... just... "
His sharp, sharp gasps disappeared, followed by a slump.
Zhou Hui raised his head abruptly and lost his voice: "Phoenix!"
However, Little Phoenix has lost consciousness. He was so unsteady in a coma that there was still pain and worry on his tender little face. The hand that was holding Zhou Hui's sleeve was still not letting go. This is above.
"Where are you going?" Zhou Hui trembled, grabbed the remaining corpse and turned a few pages with force: "What is this, what is going on?!"
"Don't turn it over." Zhang Shun came over, squatted down, held him down, and said, "I can't see anything."
Zhou Hui stared at the empty pages and said angrily, "How the hell did this happen?!"
"The corpse is not what you actually see. Only in the eyes of the phoenix can you see its true form and what is recorded in it. Maybe the phoenix arranged some mechanism in it, just to prevent the loss of memory after nirvana. The immemorial divine bird is earlier than the formation of Mount Xumi, and some things cannot even be explained by the gods and gods."
Zhang Shun took the corpse, turned a few pages, and said helplessly: "In my eyes, it is also blank, maybe the contents recorded in it have now been absorbed."
Zhou Hui turned to the little phoenix in his arms, remembering the scene where the phoenix Ming Wang Xuying completely plunged into it. At that moment, although his face did not change, his heart was beating wildly.
Was it sucked out of memory
Although Phoenix is invisible on the surface, he is a cautious and cautious person on the inside. Maybe he had anticipated this a long time ago and hid part of his memory in his diary...
Zhou Hui's back molars were slightly tight, and there was a trace of irritability in his deep brows.
However, he was very careful, trying to break the hand that Xiao Fenghuang was holding tightly to his cuff, but he gave up because he was afraid of hurting his soft bones, and hugged Xiao Fenghuang with one hand. stand up.
"Wait until he wakes up." Zhou Hui got up and said, "I'll take him home first."
Zhang Shun nodded worriedly.
·
However, there was one thing Zhou Hui didn't think of, that Xiao Fenghuang didn't wake up when he got home, and he still didn't wake up the next day.
After three full days passed, he still showed no sign of waking up.
Zhang Shun, Yu Jingzhong, Yan Lanyu, and all the team leaders of the special department came to watch it in turn, but they couldn't tell why. Xiao Fenghuang's situation was not so much a coma, but a deep sleep, and he didn't sleep peacefully. He tossed and had nightmares several times in the middle, and even gave out dazed and very painful dream babble.
On the surface, Zhou Hui was still able to hold on. When Situ Yingzhi and Wu Bei came over, he could still smile and say hello. However, anyone with eyes can see the restlessness and anger hidden in his heart, which becomes more and more obvious as time goes by, and it almost has an irrepressible momentum.
Zhang Shun comforted him: "Don't be in such a hurry, my brother will definitely be able to think of something now. After waking up, the situation will definitely be better than it is now. Can you just wait patiently?"
However, Zhou Hui only gave him a cold look and said hoarsely, "...Thank you for your words."
·
The first change in things occurred seven days after Little Phoenix fell into a deep sleep. Late that night, Zhou Hui held him in his arms to sleep, and was suddenly awakened by a violent gasp. When he looked up, he saw that Xiao Fenghuang seemed to be having a nightmare again, struggling extremely hard, and cold sweat soaked through his pajamas.
Zhou Hui immediately held him in his arms and patted and comforted him. After a while, he heard Xiao Fenghuang muttering something vaguely. After tossing and turning several times, he suddenly called out very clearly and urgently: "Zhou Hui!"
Zhou Hui thought he had finally woken up. Suddenly he got up and turned on the light, only to see Xiao Fenghuang opening his eyes weakly and terrified. The moment he saw Zhou Hui, he seemed to be relieved and gasped, "...You are still..."
"I won't leave, how are you? Come and drink some water to wake up - little phoenix!" Zhou Hui's voice suddenly turned sharp: "Don't sleep! Once you sleep, you won't be able to wake up!"
However, the little phoenix's eyelids seemed to be heavy, and he barely blinked, but couldn't lift it up. He struggled and sank repeatedly in dreams and reality, reaching out into the air as if trying to grab something.
Zhou Hui grabbed his cold fingers and clasped them tightly in the palm of his hand. At this moment, Xiao Fenghuang was very desperate and very puzzled and said, "You... why don't you save Maha?"
Zhou Hui was stunned for a moment.
The next moment he realized that Phoenix was talking in his sleep, just as he had done many times before, and he dreamed of the scene when Maha was punished by the gods on the snowfields of Tibet.
"..." Zhou Hui didn't know what to say at all, there was a sour lump in his throat, and he couldn't utter a word. Fortunately, Xiao Fenghuang lost consciousness after asking that sentence. He fell into a deeper dream, his body trembled violently, cold sweat poured out from every pore on his body like water, his hair soaked wet and stuck to his face, and the sheets In an instant, it was soaked in a lot of wetness.
Zhou Hui took the time to feed him water and keep him warm. Because of his clenched teeth, he struggled for a long time to feed him. Then he kept finding a dry cloth to wipe his body, and wrapped the little phoenix with a new duck down quilt. The trembling and trembling barely stopped after several hours. The sky was already bright, the bedroom was gray, and the tired side cheeks of the little phoenix showed a kind of gray in the darkness.
Zhou Hui carefully carried him back to the bed and changed the sweat-soaked quilt, suddenly stunned.
- Little Phoenix's body has grown up.
He had just transformed, but he was only a five or six-year-old child, so tender that he could squeeze out water. Now, he has grown two or three years out of thin air overnight, his height has increased, and his eyebrows and eyes have undergone extremely subtle changes.
Zhou Hui was completely stunned there.
"—You don't go, please wait for me to come back."
