father snake

It was almost noon, and on time, like a clockwork clock, the nurse who appeared in the ward came in carrying a box, put the box gently on the bed, opened the lid and saw that there was After so many days of eating the steaming hot food, two meat and one vegetable, Shi Xiaochuan looked better than before, and Bai Shengsheng's skin was still a little rosy.

He is a patient who is quiet and quiet, and his personality is a bit introverted, but his shy appearance is also attractive. The only thing that makes people uneasy is probably his pair of dark eyes that make it impossible to see the bottom, like If he stared at a deep ancient well for a long time, he would feel palpitations.

After being discovered by Shi Anqing that night, he moved to the building where Shi Chen was located, and lived in the ward next door to Shi Chen. From time to time, he could hear roars, fighting sounds from the next door, and of course the sound of the wall. crash.

Shi Xiaochuan stared at the white wall, thinking for a long time, but still couldn't figure out how Shi Chen became what he is now, and although Shi Anqing wanted to get a way to save his son from Shi Xiaochuan, he didn't intend to let it go. Explain it to this half-grown and seemingly useless teenager.

Sometimes, Shi Xiaochuan would go to the next ward to see Shi Chen. After being cleaned up, Shi Chen was not as embarrassed as he was when he saw it a few days ago. He was lying quietly on the white hospital bed, with a pale face, He looked extraordinarily fragile, and he looked at Shi Xiaochuan blankly, as if he didn't recognize the person in front of him as the person he once confessed to like.

Shi Xiaochuan was sitting opposite Shi Chen, staring in a daze.

Occasionally, Shi Chen was in good condition. At this time, he would forcefully prop up his body, pull Shi Xiaochuan, and gesticulate, as if he wanted to say something, but he was babbled, slurred, and the words could not be understood. Dayi, Shi Xiaochuan didn't know why, but he couldn't bear to provoke him, so he just let him pull him.

After a while, Shi Chen probably sensed his current situation, and fell down on the hospital bed again.

That night, it was Xiao's New Year's Eve, and the nurse on night shift brought them Xiao's New Year's Eve meals and added another dish. Shi Xiaochuan answered the phone call from home, and nodded, as if Shi's mother stood in front of her eyes, and it was nothing more than those words. Over there, Shi's mother said that she called the doctor two days ago to see if she could show up and go home before the Chinese New Year.

Shi Xiaochuan smiled wryly in his heart, calling the doctor might be of no use, but he didn't want to make Shi's mother worry, so he agreed.

Speaking of which, apart from being drawn some blood and undergoing some cumbersome examinations, nothing happened to him, but being detained in the hospital as an experimental product is not a happy thing no matter how you think about it. To be polite, there's no guarantee that he won't cut something directly on him tomorrow.

In the middle of the night, Shi Xiaochuan quietly got up from the bed, pushed open the door, and entered the balcony. He sat on the chair on the balcony and looked up at the sky.

Today is New Year's Eve. In the past, at this time, mother Shi would clean the house inside and out, directing the two brothers Shi Xiaochuan and Shi Xiaoshan around. Of course, most of the time she was ordering Shi Xiaochuan , who let Shi Xiaoshan take advantage of a young age.

There is an old saying in Lingshan Town that "parents hurt all their children", which means that parents generally have a preference for the youngest child, but this kind of thing is especially serious in Shi's family.

There are a few stars in the sky twinkling in the night, appearing and disappearing from time to time, and occasionally the sound of firecrackers can be heard, but there is no smoke and incense. I think it is just to use something like a tape recorder to play some sound to meet the occasion.

This is not Lingshan Town.

During the Spring Festival in Lingshan Town, every household would set off firecrackers to wish good luck and send off the gods who had worked hard for a year. Into the belly of a gluttonous child.

The sound of fireworks and firecrackers is one after another, as if each family is in a competition, to see who can set off the firecrackers for a long time, the fireworks are set high, the rare and lively days, compared with the deserted ward now, it is even more nostalgic.

In fact, at that time, I was just a bystander, and the excitement was the excitement of others.

However, even watching other people's excitement, the feeling of loneliness and loneliness seems to dissipate a little bit.

Human psychology is so strange.

Shi Xiaochuan thought, even if he lived alone in the future, he would find a bustling big city and watch the people coming and going on the streets, so that he would feel more fulfilled.

In the middle of the night, Shi Xiaochuan was a little sleepy, he rubbed his eyes, and planned to go back to his room to sleep.

When he was lying on the bed, he felt that there was something extra beside him. He was so startled that he almost jumped up, but was pulled back to the bed by that thing, pressed tightly under his body, and his mouth was covered, Shi Xiaochuan After whining a few times, he suddenly calmed down. He was very familiar with this thing.

It is autumn.

Shi Xiaochuan felt that his lower body was still in the shape of a snake, so he curled up in the quilt, wrapped around his legs a few times, and wrapped him tightly. Shi Xiaochuan felt as if he was being crushed by an ice cube. He pushed Tianqiu forward, making him back away a little.

Tianqiu let go of the hand covering Shi Xiaochuan's mouth, and Tianqiu didn't know what method he used, a faint white light lit up in the room, just like the hazy moonlight. , Shi Xiaochuan looked at Tianqiu in front of him.

He looks fine, under this kind of light, his whole body has a jade-like moist feeling, but Shi Xiaochuan feels that Tianqiu in front of him is not real, he can't help but reach out and touch Tianqiu's face and neck , There is a slippery coolness under the palm, and the pulsation of the blood vessels.

"Where did you go that night?" Shi Xiaochuan couldn't help asking.

Tianqiu pulled Shi Xiaochuan's hand down, and saw Tianqiu say softly, "I got into a fight with someone, and I was injured a little bit. Later, in order to save that 'little white' snake, I ran into some troubles, so I had to take the You sent it to the gate of Lingshan Temple first." He looked at Shi Xiaochuan, and then continued, "I came to you after I recovered from my injury."

No need to think about it, I also know how dangerous the situation was at that time, seeing Tianqiu's understatement, but Shi Xiaochuan knew that his injury was not completely healed, and he couldn't even maintain his human appearance, he could only change back to a half-human, half-snake appearance .

"But it's not completely fruitless, I finally know where the Snake Sutra is!" Tianqiu whispered, with an inexplicable light in his eyes, "Wait a minute, we'll set off to find the things that belonged to us." return."

Shi Xiaochuan nodded without the slightest hesitation. Since Tianqiu said he found it, he must have found it. It is difficult for him to leave the hospital with his own strength, and Tianqiu, who is elusive, is not necessarily so. At least, Tianqiu is now Without alarming anyone, he escaped the ubiquitous monitoring equipment and arrived at his ward.

"Rest first, I've been driving for a day and a night, and I'm a little tired." Tian Qiu's voice became lower and lower, his face rested on Shi Xiaochuan's shoulder, just like when he was a child, he stuck to Shi Xiaochuan tightly, But Shi Xiaochuan couldn't fall asleep, and looked at the door anxiously, fearing that the nurse on duty would suddenly come in to check the situation in the ward.

But nothing happened, except Tian Qiu's shallow breathing in his ear.

When he was sitting on the balcony just now, Shi Xiaochuan felt a little lonely and lonely, but now, being wrapped up in Tianqiu's body, the feeling of emptiness disappeared, and he thought that there was such a person who cared about him after all, and he , I also miss this person, maybe it can't be called a person, but what does it matter.

Tianqiu was lying beside him, his heartbeat made Shi Xiaochuan feel at ease, his breathing made Shi Xiaochuan feel alive, and his serpentine lower body made Shi Xiaochuan feel kind.

He neither fears nor doubts them.

He was originally a different kind, growing up in exclusion, maybe his thinking has become different from others in the process of growing up, but who said that sleeping together peacefully and relying on each other like this is not a kind of happiness Woolen cloth?

Tian Qiu didn't sleep for a long time, it seemed that after a while, he opened his eyes.

He sat up, picked up Shi Xiaochuan, hugged him to his chest, and kissed him on the mouth, "When the matter here is settled, let's live in another place?" Tian Qiu touched Shi Xiaochuan head, said suddenly.

Shi Xiaochuan was stunned, is this inviting him to live together?He thought for a moment, then nodded.

Tianqiu happily kissed him again, "You choose the place, you can go wherever you want, I can work and earn money to support you, you just study hard, and when you finish studying, you can support me."

Tianqiu's idea is good, but Shi Xiaochuan looked at him suspiciously, is it unrealistic to ask him to earn money to support his family?

Tianqiu was trapped in Lingshan Town for hundreds of years before, and then he escaped at random, but it was only a few months. He has been away from this world for too long, and his memory is intermittent and not very clear. Earth-shaking changes have taken place, and it is not an era when you can live by brute force alone, but Shi Xiaochuan decided not to break Tianqiu's dream.

In any case, it is always good to be able to dream. People are afraid that they will not even have the idea of ​​dreaming, which is too sad.

The half-human, half-snake Tianqiu walked in front, and Shi Xiaochuan followed. The nurses who were supposed to run out immediately seemed to be asleep, allowing the two living people to run rampant in the corridor.

Shi Xiaochuan muttered and fell behind, suddenly Tianqiu flicked his tail, rolled him over, and held him in his arms, Shi Xiaochuan watched Tianqiu hide in the next ward at a very fast speed, and then heard two Footsteps sounded in the corridor, and there was a slight conversation, and he heard them mention Shi Chen.

Shi Xiaochuan hugged Shi Chen's neck and whispered in Tianqiu's ear, "Shi Chen is here."

Tianqiu nodded.

"He—" Shi Xiaochuan didn't know what to say, he told Tianqiu about Shi Chen in a few words.

Tian Qiu hugged him tighter, "Don't feel guilty, you can't save everyone."

Shi Xiaochuan nodded helplessly, he knew he couldn't save everyone, but he wanted to save Shi Chen, who had always been kind to him, but he didn't know if the research done by those doctors on him could really save everyone. he.

He even had his bone marrow pumped once, but after such a long time, Shi Chen's condition has not improved at all, which made him wonder whether the method Shi Anqing said is really effective, and he is really already in this hospital Be scared.

After those two people left, Tianqiu came out of the ward with Shi Xiaochuan in his arms, and walked out of the hospital as if there was no one else around. Shi Xiaochuan watched Tianqiu's tail slowly transform into two human legs while walking. I can't help but sigh again in my heart, this is really amazing.

They went out and got into a night taxi.

Shi Xiaochuan heard Tianqiu say in his ear, "Go to sleep for a while."

Then, he went to raise sleepy bugs boldly.

When he woke up, he found that the place in front of him looked familiar.
