Quickly wear: I am looking for my owner in the human world

Chapter 21 Come, I’ll take you home (20)

Grandpa Chu talked about the past intermittently, his expression was rarely vivid.

Chu Chi listened silently, and saw Grandpa Chu raising his hand to pour the wine again. He paused with his extended hand, but did not stop him after all, and just gave him a few more chopsticks.

When Grandpa Chu calmed down, he was already a little confused. He was holding the wine bottle on the table and his eyes gradually lost focus.

"Xiao Yi."

The old voice said vaguely.

"Do not be angry."

"I'll drink it just this once."

"Really, if you don't believe me, ask Achi."

"You remember Ah Chi, right? I talked to you about it."

"He's grown up, he's almost eighteen."

"It's so fast, Xiaoyi."

The old man's voice lowered little by little, and he leaned on the table and murmured something softly.

"...Soon...Soon..."

Chu Chi sat quietly for a while, making sure that Grandpa Chu was asleep, then got up and walked into the room, took out a coat and gently covered him.

When he leaned forward, he caught a glimpse of the moisture in the corner of the old man's eyes, and Chu Chi's long eyelashes trembled.

It's almost... what's so fast?

He didn't want to guess the answer at all.

The woman Grandpa talked about was also very strange to him.

He only knew that she was a gentle and kind-hearted woman, but she died prematurely in a disaster.

Grandpa rarely mentioned the past to him.

But in fact ...

I miss her so much.

Xuan Wei saw Chu Chi standing in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking, and there was an aura of confusion all over his body.

Just as the sound of fireworks was being set off outside, Xuan Wei silently moved to Chu Chi's side, raised her front paws and patted his calf. When Chu Chi looked down, she turned around and walked towards the yard as if nothing had happened.

Chu Chi followed subconsciously.

The night in late winter is very cold and dark.

Only the fireworks blooming wantonly are brilliant, like thousands of trees and silver flowers falling, and thousands of stars blooming.

In the small courtyard, under the eaves, Chu Chi stood quietly alone, putting his hands in his pockets and looking up at the night sky.The brilliance reflected in the eyes fades away, more brilliant than fireworks, and lonelier than the night sky.

Only the puppy sat beside him, seemingly lost in thought.

After a long time, the young man suddenly said to himself: "Ah Cai, do you think there are really gods in this world?"

Xuan Wei was stunned by this sudden question, but she saw the young man smiling self-deprecatingly, his thin profile looking even more lonely in the night.

"Even if there is, so what?"

"I never believe in those illusory things."

Xuan Wei:......

do not!You have to believe that you are God’s chosen one!Although it may be a bit miserable now, as long as you get through it, your blessing will be behind you!

Chu Chi naturally couldn't hear what Xuan Wei was thinking.

He does not believe in gods and Buddhas.

Because he has long been accustomed to relying on himself alone.

He didn't have too many things, but he never asked for charity and never flinched.Whatever he wants, he can get it with his own hands and efforts, even if it takes a little longer and a little harder.

The only thing he fears is that he has no ability to protect or keep the few things he has now.

Rather than that, he would rather time stay at this moment, stay at this night.At least……

Chu Chi looked back at the old man sleeping in the room, and then slowly moved his eyes to the dozing dog squatting at his feet, with a faint warmth in his eyes.

At least, he's not alone.

******

Early the next morning, Grandpa Chu took Chu Chi to visit the grave, and Xuan Wei was left to look after the family.

Xuan Wei: I never thought that one day the successor of the majestic beast god would be reduced to a watchdog.

Xuan Wei lay lying down in the small wooden house made for her by Grandpa Chu, her little ears erect twitching, wondering if she should go out and do something... ah no, do something good.

But in this cold weather, I really don’t want to move.Torn for a moment between accumulating merit and transforming into another form as soon as possible or continuing to be a watchdog, Xuan Wei finally chose——

Continue to lie dead.

The days when I can eat, drink, and sleep freely without having to practice are getting worse day by day.You can't blame her for this. She is just a Xiugou with no bad intentions. How diligent is she to be expected?

Thornhead:......

I knew I couldn't count on this woman!

[The two people outside have been sneaking around for a long time, don’t tell me you didn’t see them! 】

"Oh, you mean those two idiots who were looking around with dirty faces, afraid that others wouldn't know they were here to do bad things?"

"Although they are so stupid that I can't bear to look at them, but what does this have to do with me?"

[The pagoda is a little restless. The top of the pagoda is pointing directly at the two people. Follow them and you may gain a lot. 】

Xuan Wei half-squinted his eyes and mobilized his mind to take a look. After a while, he sighed quietly.

"Don't let me down."

These two are not like Chu Chi, who has the identity of Qi Yunzi to protect her. They don't want to know the consequences of disturbing her sleep!

Xuanwei straightened up her body, stretched her body in a leisurely manner, and then walked step by step to the door of the yard, when she heard two people arguing.

"This... you didn't tell me before that you had a master!"

"It doesn't matter if he has a master or not, just catch him now!"

"No, no, if I'm discovered, won't I get into trouble for nothing?"

"Use money to do things. You have already collected the money. You have to do it now, whether you want to do it or not! Besides, have you not done enough of this? Is it possible that all the goods you have are ownerless? Now let's put this aside What!"

"That...that's different!"

Most of the dogs he caught were stray dogs, and the few dogs that had owners were unlucky enough to run into them. No wonder he was the one who caught them, and the owners couldn't find him.But it was his first time to catch a dog at someone’s door in broad daylight!

"Stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and do it quickly. If you keep grinding, it's time for Jijir to come back!"

"I really don't..."

"The reward will be doubled again!"

"real?!"

The man's eyes were shining, but there was still some hesitation on his face, "We can't catch it directly here. It's best to lead it out to a more remote place first..."

"Look behind you!"

"What... it came out on its own?"

Xuan Wei rolled his eyes silently.With your little brains and courage, how are you going to play if I don't cooperate?

"Isn't this one a little too small? There are only a few kilograms of meat on it, so it can't be sold for a good price!"

"The money after finishing this order is enough to buy all your goods! Are you still thinking about this little money?"

"Okay... little one, don't blame me, you brought this to your door yourself..."

The man took out a small half of ham sausage from his pocket and handed it to Xuan Wei: "Tsk, tsk, eat it."

Xuan Wei took it in her mouth with dignity, then turned around and ran, disappearing in the corner outside the small courtyard in the blink of an eye.

The two were stunned for a moment and immediately chased after him.

As soon as they rounded the corner, they found the dog unconscious on the ground and the ham sausage in his mouth was gone.

"I fainted a bit quickly...did I take too much medicine?"

"Why do you care so much? Take it away quickly!"

After the two left carrying a black bag, the courtyard returned to tranquility.

After a while, a mouse emerged from nowhere on the courtyard wall and quickly ran to the dead tree in the corner.

There is a sunken groove at the bottom of the tree, and the mouse puts its head in, making a slight squeaking sound, as if it is gnawing some food.

Ten minutes later, the grandson of Grandpa Wang’s family nearby chased his big tabby cat all the way here. He looked at the motionless mouse with its legs up in the air under the tree and the big flower next to it, looking like it was asking for credit. Puzzled.

Suddenly, the little fat man had a flash of inspiration, remembered something, and happily patted Dahua on the head.

"Dahua, you are so smart! The teacher said that this is called... waiting for the mouse!"
