new year book

Chapter 19

Before my sister could think, she was always a happy black cat. During the day, she slept in the sun in a corner of the cemetery. In the evening, she went to the nearby residential area. There are many kind-hearted residents there. Keep some food in the corner for stray cats and dogs.

Of course, cats and dogs will inevitably have conflicts over food. At that time, my sister was the king of the cats in the cemetery. She is very powerful and smart, and has never lost in the fight for food.Day by day, there are always lucky guys who are adopted by humans. As for the younger sister, because she is a black cat, she has always dismissed those traitors who were adopted by humans.

Later, the younger sister was taken away and traveled across the ocean to China, where she became the owner's younger sister. She learned how to use the toilet, learn to look at the alchemy furnace, learned to think, and worked hard to adapt to the new life as a foreign cat operator.

Every morning, before dawn, my younger sister will diligently get up from her cat's nest. She will go to the spring house to inspect first. their heads, reminding them that it's time to get up.The younger sister is a smart cat who understands two languages. This is not the most proud thing. What the younger sister is most proud of is that her principled ability is the strongest in the family. For example, who is the turn to water the botanical garden today? Taking care of Hua Miao, my younger sister will definitely try to wake this person up, even if it is the master, she will not give half of the face.

Shi Yang opened his eyes in a daze. As a monk, he regards sleeping late as enjoying life. He is not alone, the whole family is like this.

"Sister... um... I'm on duty today?" Shi Yang lay on the bed and looked at his sister lying beside the bed. She held up a paw, as long as Shi Yang's head dared to retract into the bed, she would not hesitate Give him a paw.

"You go to see senior brother, I'm going out today, I'm changing shifts." Shi Yang snorted, his sister's raised paw hesitated, what does changing shifts mean?

A smiling murmur came from under the quilt: "Change shift, that is to say, your eldest brother will work for a week, and then I will work for another week."

The younger sister analyzed it for a long time, but expressed that she was not clear, and still scratched the quilt persistently with her paws.Shi Yang had no choice but to get up from the bed, carried his younger sister into the bathroom together, and after a while, the drenched younger sister fled out in embarrassment.

Yang Xiangzi stepped on the medicine roller with his feet, holding a small calculator in his hand, tick-tock to settle the accounts.

Shi Yang got dressed, took a new ID card, went downstairs and had breakfast.Yang Xiangzi was a little wordy, and kept asking: "Have you brought enough money?"

"enough."

"You really don't want to go back and meet them?"

"No."

"Have you brought enough clothes?"

"I'll just go out for a day."

Xue Run was wearing slippers, came down with a look of distress, and chattered as he went down: "The next one will break the bank, dozens of people will toss for a night, waste how many sets of medicines I have, and eat a bunch, they are pigs, losing money! The boss It's just an idiot... Is there such a gift?" He sat down, looked at Shi Yang, and blinked: "Second, are you going away?"

"Master, don't call me Er, that's a curse word." Shi Yang ate with one hand, and fed the food to his younger sister under the table with the other hand.

"Are you traveling far away?" Xue Run asked again.

Shi Yang nodded: "Looking at the newspaper yesterday, there was a news that my grandpa was hospitalized."

Xue Run nodded: "Then I really need to go back and have a look."

Shi Yangen let out a sound, and then explained: "I'll quietly help to take a look, and I'll be right back."

"It's okay, you stay with your family for a few days and stay with your parents, neither your brother nor I will miss you." Xue Run waved his hand.

"I didn't intend to let them see me." Shi Yang pushed away the tableware in front of him, stood up and turned his face to his sister and said, "Let's go."

The younger sister was a little bit reluctant to see that she had only drank half of the basin of milk, so she still meowed, put on Shi Yang's shoulder and went out with him.She was fat now, like an exaggerated cat doll in a toy store window.

"I think it's time for my sister to lose weight. Also, buy a roller. Cat hairs fly around the house every day." Xue Run picked the cat hair from his pajama pants.

Yang Xiangzi ignored the master's teasing, but worriedly looked at the car going away. Last night, Shi Yang was wearing slippers and walking around the house, and the sound of the soles rubbing against the floor didn't stop until early in the morning.

Shi Yang drove his newly bought Mercedes-Benz off-road vehicle onto the highway. This car was bought by his senior brother Li Guoping. Every time he drove out, he would attract a lot of envious eyes.But now this car doesn't matter to Shi Yang anymore. The social environment and life that he has been working hard for before are now within reach, but the vanity of ordinary people is no longer there. This is a tool .

From Zhengliang City on the expressway, Shi Yang was photographed countless times when he was speeding all the way. Shi Yang didn't care. He traveled across the two provinces to the imperial capital in only twelve hours. Street mall parking lot, began to wait for dark.

Grandpa was sick before, and the most trusted doctor in this hospital was a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine in this hospital. He probably didn't run away this time when he was hospitalized, and he would definitely live in the ward here.Shi Yang leaned against the parking space, turned on the radio and listened to the long-lost radio station host Desi who was full of Beijing flavor.

Time passed slowly, and the corner of the underground parking lot was extremely quiet, exuding the smell of a murder scene unique to a movie.Shi Yang took out the old mobile phone and looked at it for a while, then turned it on by accident.The big brother always does this kind of strange thing. For several years, this mobile phone has been helping to charge and maintain it.When I got in the car today, it was quietly placed beside the seat.

The phone, which was turned on silent, kept vibrating non-stop, and overwhelming advertisements, mixed with various text messages, appeared one by one.

Shi Yang glanced at the date of the earliest text message, which was about the Spring Festival a few months after he "died".

"Yangyang, where did you go for dinner tonight? Come back and explain to your father. Remember to be honest and sincerely admit your mistakes."

A few days later...

"Yangyang, hurry home, your father is angry."

"Yangyang, you moved your household registration book? What do you want to do?"

"Ancestor, your mother came to the company and asked me to hand in someone. Where are you? Ancestor, go home quickly, or brother will not be able to confess."

There are a lot of truths, each one is very sincere, some people are criticizing, some are angry, some are reprimanding, some are presenting the facts, some are innocent, some are black-faced, and some are red-faced …What they said made sense, but no one found out that the person had been "dead" for half a year.

Later, the tone of the text message became softer and softer, almost begging at the end, and then...the phone's memory is not enough...

Shi Yang, who was in deep thought, was taken aback by the vibration of the mobile phone in his hand. Now there are fewer and fewer things that can scare him, but it is indeed very strange for a mobile phone that has been shut down for several years to suddenly get a call. frightening.

Shi Yang looked at the number, with a helpless smile on the corner of his mouth, he connected: "Hello?"

"Apprentice, I forgot to mention it. Buy me some Jingba pieces. The small package of candied haws I bought online last time is also delicious. By the way, your senior brother said that there are all books in the bookstore over there. I will give it to you." Make a list, you remember to buy them all... By the way, you are there now... Your senior brother is stupid, cooking, and put three sets of bowls... Where is my sister... When will you come back... Is the capital hot? ? They said the air over there is not good..."

The master arranged a lot of things, Shi Yang wrote them down one by one, and when he finished, he started nagging again, saying that if the apprentice is free, there is a peripheral shop in the imperial capital that sells all kinds of dolls for games. Go buy a few sets if you have time...

Originally quite depressed mood was messed up, Shi Yang could not laugh or laugh, and answered one by one, the master and apprentice kept calling until the phone ran out of battery, Shi Yang put down the scorching phone, feeling quite relieved.

The night in the imperial capital is more lively than the daytime. The underground garage, which was originally quiet, became lively as soon as night fell. There are several nightclubs upstairs, which seem to have opened for business.

Shi Yang locked the car door, and slowly walked out along the corner of the garage, with his younger sister wandering at his feet, full of curiosity about the strange city.

In the backyard of the inpatient department of XXX Hospital of the People's Liberation Army, Shi Yang stood with his face up outside the wall of the small building area. The terrain here is the same as it was a few years ago. The only difference is that a few years ago he walked through the main entrance, and now he jumps over the wall.

Shi Yang jumped into the yard, and walked slowly along the roadside parking spaces in the yard. He knew the license plate numbers of the cars at home.However, after he turned around the yard for the third time, he didn't find a car he was familiar with, so maybe it was really like the newspaper said that the situation was critical. Shi Yang turned his face and looked at the 20-odd High hospital main building.

He suddenly remembered the phoenix tree in the garden, the rattan chair under the tree, the newspapers that were blown by the wind, and the reading glasses. The old man never had a good face when he saw him.

Standing in the elevator, Shi Yang looked at his current face to the stainless steel side of the elevator. That's right, he abandoned his original face, and he buried the past long ago when he reshaped himself.Now, if you don't look at this picture carefully, and live with him every day, you won't think he is Shi Yang at all.

The elevator door opened slowly, and there were two guards standing on both sides of the elevator: "Sorry, you can't enter this floor."

Shi Yang smiled at them, reached out and pressed the up button.

Sure enough, here, it seems that something really happened to the old man, something happened...

At one o'clock in the middle of the night, a figure, straight like a suicide by jumping off a building, fell rapidly from the 24-story roof of the hospital. When the figure fell to the ninth floor, it stopped for a moment and began to check the wards one by one. .Finally, he came to a corner window and stopped.

The younger sister was a little impatient and wanted to move around, Shi Yang said to her quietly: "Shh... I have a fear of heights, be careful that I fall."

The cat stopped, stretched out its sharp claws, and grabbed his clothes tightly.

The tubes extending from various instruments are inserted into the old man. The instruments around him, the signs of being alive, are bouncing feebly. There are family members, and each family is called in to cry and cry. Those people who have not seen for several years are familiar but unfamiliar. So close and so far away.

Shi Yang watched quietly, and saw several doctors standing at the door, shaking their heads gently at these people, and then left together...

Some were crying loudly, some were leaning against the wall stupidly, muttering to themselves, some of the old man's subordinates and people sent from above gathered at the door, the crowd was very lively.

Later, the nurse came in, pulled up the curtain in front of the window, and turned down the lights in the house. Many juniors were driven into the corridor.Only the old man's sons were left in the house.

The eyes of the black cat were frighteningly shining in the dark night. Shi Yang looked at the men in the room through the glass. It was the first time he saw his father cry at such a close distance. It turned out that he also had tears and Will be vulnerable?

"Dad..." Shi Zhuozheng held his father's hand, feeling very sad. The doctor said that this was the last night.

"Brother, Minister Wang and the others are here." The door opened, and the eldest brother Shi Zhuoxiang called him from the door.

As the determined backbone of the new generation family, Shi Zhuozheng had no choice but to stand up and lead the other two younger brothers to the door to receive condolences. The foundation of the Shi family is not stable now, and the old man has gone. I don't know how much pressure he will face from various aspects.

The closed window slowly opened by itself, and Shi Yang floated into the room. When he got down on the ground, people and cats breathed a sigh of relief.

Walking slowly to the old man's hospital bed, Shi Yang stretched out his hand to caress that old cheek, but his hand paused in mid-air, and then slowly fell down.He lowered his head, looked at him for a moment, searched back and forth for his kind side in his memory, closed his eyes and thought for a long time, but couldn't find one.

"Old man, did you say you've ever laughed at people in your life?" Shi Yang chuckled, reached for the cup on the table, took out a small jade bottle, poured some pills into it, and shook the boiling water to speed up the cooling.

"Look, you're going to die. Which one of those people outside is really crying for you? Well... Maybe Shi Zhuozheng will, he has always been your good baby, and you say I'm a little bastard, and he thinks I'm a bastard Add three levels, if you say that I will not be successful in this life, he will not look at me again. That is... what a good and obedient son." Shi Yang reached out to take the large needle, sucked the medicine juice slowly Slowly inject into the old man's esophagus.

"I thought about leaving you alone, but it's a pity that I have to come. In fact, I am very grateful to you. Without you, there would be no Shi Zhuozheng, and there would be no me in this world. The relationship between people is so entangled and complicated. I'm really grateful, you see, I've traveled thousands of miles early in the morning, and I can be regarded as... repaying the kindness you have given me."

The old man's cheeks slowly turned red. Shi Yang took out a flat box from his arms, opened it, and took out a tree from the box, a miniature bonsai tree about the size of a lighter.

Slowly moving the palms, a force pushed the tree to a height of two feet in front of the old man and began to spin rapidly. While turning, it gave off dazzling light. Finally, the tree quickly experienced four seasons, sprouted, and turned green. It blooms, bears fruit, and finally it spits out the last light of life, slowly shrinks and begins to wither.

The old man who had been lying there and was about to die suddenly opened his eyes, looked around in confusion at first, and then stared closely at Shi Yang.

Shi Yang opened the box and took the miniature tree back. His younger sister meowed and jumped onto his shoulder.

Shi Yang looked sideways at the old man and smiled: "Are you awake?"

The old man opened his mouth, and the muscles on his face twitched rapidly.

"Hey, I just rescued you. If you want to die again, there is really nothing you can do. I have helped you recuperate those embolisms in your head and some old diseases in your body, and you will harm the world comfortably. Well, you will live longer, live longer than them, and you will be like a mountain, always pressing on top of their heads. You will find that their feelings for you are not because of love, but because of rights.

Fear you because of the awe of power.Living a long time is actually not a good thing, but I want you to live a long time. What you care about, what you value, what you like, and what you appreciate are all fake.This is real life, isn't it?Old man, you have to thank me, of course, I don't care about your thank you, really, welcome back. "

The old man's eyes were full of doubts.

Shi Yang smiled, pulled the chair and sat down, looked at the old man's face with a smile on his side, and sighed in doubt after watching him for a while: "Actually, you are just an ordinary old man who plays chess with Xia Tian in the old alley. Is there any difference between those old men? I...how could I be so afraid of you before?"

The old man was startled, his pupils constricted violently.

There was a sound of turning the doorknob outside the door, Shi Zhuozheng, Shi Zhuoxiang walked in, holding a pot of flower baskets in his hands: "Dad, Minister Wang came to see you and gave you flowers. Look at how fresh these flowers are. After all, you made them." The old subordinates who have been promoted...have a conscience..."

Shi Zhuozheng pretended to be relaxed, placed the flower basket, his hand stopped suddenly, turned his face to look at his father in surprise, and then trembled in surprise.

The old man sat up slowly, without looking at him, he struggled a few times with his dripping hand, pointed to the open window, and after a long time hissing, he shouted in a harsh voice, "Drink...drink...Yangyang...Yang... ..."

Shi Yang strolled on the streets of the imperial capital, and the hospital building was getting farther and farther away from him. He was in a good mood, feeling very delicate, and the leaves of the sycamore trees beside the road rustled.

"Sister, tell me, what will happen to them? They will be surprised, right?" Shi Yang muttered with a smile, and his sister raised her face at his feet and meowed.Shi Yang bent down to pick her up, and walked down the road in the parking lot, his footsteps became more and more lonely, a familiar air flow surrounded him, he pouted: "The world is such a coincidence, can't it be such a coincidence? "

He stood still, and after a while, there was a crisp slap, Shi Yang blinked his eyes, and quietly poked his head from behind the pillar, the elevator in the garage.

A man in a windbreaker covered his cheeks and looked at the woman in front of him calmly. The woman cried bitterly, "I hate you!"

After she finished cursing, she stepped into the elevator.

The man in the windbreaker covered his face, and after reacting for a long time, he turned around and wanted to get into the elevator, but the elevator door was closed.

"Bah!"

There was a loud noise, and there was a vibration from the underground parking lot. The man in the windbreaker kicked the elevator door into the elevator room and fell to the lower floor.

"Hello!" Shi Yang called him, the windbreaker turned his face to look at Shi Yang in surprise, he didn't hear how Shi Yang approached: "Who are you?"

"You are a cultivator, right? Oh, don't care who I am, it's wrong to destroy public property." With a sincere expression, Shi Yang slowly walked in front of him with the cat in his arms. This man was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. Yang came over, moved his hand, and a half-moon-shaped white light shot towards Shi Yang with his right hand.

Shi Yang's arm quickly drew an arc in front of his body, a white transparent wall blocked the attack, but his body swiftly hid aside.

"Hey! You can do whatever you want, I mean it kindly." Shi Yang stood up and shook his head helplessly. These monks don't know what's wrong, but they have such a bad temper.

"Whose family do you belong to? Tell me your name." The man in the windbreaker was surprised and put down his hands. His half-swollen face looked ridiculous. The cheeks slapped by nuns are usually many times harder than ordinary girls. , is this level considered light?Shi Yang looked at him sympathetically, and pointed to his cheek: "I have ointment? Do you use it?"

The man shook his head.

Shi Yang bared his teeth: "Hey? Hands are so heavy, what kind of bastard did you do, cheating?"

"Cheating?" The man in the windbreaker didn't understand.

"Ah, yes, cheating, cheating is wrong, you have to be patient with girls..."

A sound of quick footsteps came from the entrance of the parking lot, Shi Yang stretched out his hand and dragged the man in the windbreaker away quickly.

"What did you break?" the man in the windbreaker asked while running.

"Monitoring, if you don't want to be in tomorrow morning's morning paper, you have to be like this, otherwise Li Guoping will be miserable, and you have to ask the bricklayer to explain..." Shi Yang withdrew his hand, and the monitor behind him fell to the ground in pieces, and the circuit cracked and sparked The screen in the monitoring room on the roof went dark, and he explained while running.

Half an hour later, outside the 24-hour fast food restaurant, Shi Yang brought out two cups of hot drinks, gave a cup of orange juice to the man in the windbreaker, and drank hot coffee by himself.

The man in the windbreaker drank a few sips, grinning and touching half of his face, he looked at Shi Yang who was smiling strangely: "Are you so happy every day?"

Shi Yang shook his head: "No, today is China's Halloween, and ghosts walk in the night."

The man in the windbreaker didn't understand what Shi Yang was talking about, so he shook his head helplessly.

"Do you care about your girlfriend? She seems very angry. I'm not talking about you. Girls are easy to coax. Go buy a bouquet of roses and send them to her when she has the most acquaintances. Give her enough face, and I promise you will forgive me." You." Shi Yang re-educated this person.

The man in the windbreaker smiled and explained after drinking the orange juice nonchalantly: "That's me... It's my husband's sister. She fell in love with a little ruffian, and my husband told him to castrate that guy..."

Shi Yang took a sip of coffee, turned his face and looked at the man in the windbreaker in surprise: "This job is neat, it's done once and for all, you can do it! No, your husband can do it!"

The man in the windbreaker smiled at him, "However, thank you, what's your name, my name is Xinghua."
