Peking Opera Cat: I Became A Zi's Brother

Da Fei completely fainted in the chaotic tearing, and his consciousness seemed to fall into thick ink.

"Ringling..."

I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly the clear sound of silver bells rang in my ears, mixed with a familiar sweet fragrance.

"Uh~"

He slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying on a hillside covered with soft grass. The warm sun shone gently on his body, and the sound of a gurgling stream came from the distance.

"Where is this..."

"A Fei, are you awake?"

A familiar voice came.

Da Fei turned his head suddenly and saw Hai Piao squatting beside him, holding a bowl of steaming fish soup in her hand. The hem of her light purple skirt was blown by the wind, and the silver bells in her hair swayed gently with her movements.

Her smile was still so gentle, and there was no trace of chaos in her eyes.

"..."

Da Fei subconsciously touched his body, and all the wounds disappeared, even the traces of being burned by chaos were gone without a trace.

"!"

He sat up in astonishment, only to find that the surrounding scenery was extremely familiar—this was the paradise he had accidentally discovered when he was exploring with his fellow Star Luos.

"This is……"

Before Da Fei finished speaking, laughter suddenly came from a distance.

"Hey, Wusong, stop running away and eat some more!"

"Get lost, you stinky bastard, you're just thinking about eating every day. If you keep eating, I'm going to die of weight!"

He looked closely and saw Bai Tang chasing Wu Song and playing with him, holding a half-eaten piece of sugar cake in his hand.

Xiaoqing and Mingyue were sitting by the stream, washing freshly picked wild flowers with the stream water.

"Husband, look at this kite..."

"Of course my Ah Zi is the best~"

Mo Zi and Mo Yun held hands and ran together, pulling the spool of thread. The colorful kite flew high in the sky, and the string drew a graceful arc in the air.

"Is everyone okay?"

Da Fei's voice trembled a little and his eyes were slightly red.

Haipiao smiled and handed him the fish soup:

"Of course, we are all here. We will never have to face Chaos again."

“So warm~”

Dafei took the fish soup and felt the warmth in his palm.

"Um……"

He took a sip, and the familiar delicious taste made his eyes warm.

But he didn't notice that the sea drift reflected on the surface of the fish soup had a strange smile on his lips and a barely perceptible gray-black flash in his eyes.

"Hahaha……"

The companions who were playing in the distance had a faint chaotic mist floating under their feet, but Da Fei, who was immersed in the "beauty", was completely unaware of it.

……

"No, it shouldn't be like this!"

Da Fei's pupils trembled violently, and his rough palms tightly grasped Hai Piao's sleeves, his knuckles turning white due to the force, as if he was grabbing the last straw.

His voice was as hoarse as sandpaper:

"Haipiao! Listen to me, during the battle at the West City Inn, when the landlady pushed you into the vortex of chaos, I was right beside you! The moment the chaos tentacles wrapped around you, I even heard the sound of the silver bells shattering in your hair!"

His chest heaved violently, and those memories that had been corroded by chaos bit his mind like poisonous snakes. Every scene was accompanied by piercing pain.

"..."

Haipiao's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a barely perceptible gloom flashed across her eyes, which then turned into a gentle mist in an instant.

She slowly raised her hands, her fingertips were warm, and gently held Dafei's cheeks, but the temperature was so hot that it seemed to burn him.

"A Fei, are you having a nightmare again?"

She tilted her head, and the silver bells in her hair rang softly with her movement, but it was no longer the crisp sound she remembered. Instead, it was mixed with the subtle humming of chains, like a whisper from the abyss.

"The matter of the West City Inn was clearly resolved five years ago."

"You, what are you talking about?"

"five years ago?"

Da Fei's Adam's apple rolled with difficulty, and the memories eroded by chaos surged wildly in his mind.

He staggered back half a step, the scene before his eyes flickering, sometimes showing the beautiful scenery of the mountains, and sometimes showing a chaotic battlefield.

He clearly remembered that just a few hours ago, the proprietress's crazy laughter was still echoing in his ears, and chaos swallowed Haipiao's figure inch by inch.

But everything before my eyes was too real - the mountain breeze, wrapped in the fragrance of wild flowers, gently brushed across my face; Bai Tang's laughter as she chased Wu Song penetrated the morning mist, carrying a carefree joy; Xiao Qing and Ming Yue were weaving wild flowers into garlands and wearing them in each other's hair, their eyebrows curved and their eyes full of smiles.

"Yes, you rushed into the chaos vortex and shattered the boss lady's chaos brush with your singing rhyme power."

Haipiao's fingertips stroked across his eyebrows, her movements gentle, as if to smooth out the wrinkles of his memories.

Her voice was bewitchingly gentle:

"Have you forgotten? Brother Mo Yun also used the Mo Sect's secret technique to draw out the hidden injuries left by Chaos from everyone's bodies."

She suddenly smiled and pointed at Mo Zi and Mo Yun who were running in the distance. The two cats were working together to fly a kite into the sky. The colorful kite was swaying in the clouds, but the patterns on the kite, if you looked closely, looked like a bunch of distorted ghost faces.

"Look, isn't he fine now?"

"..."

Da Fei followed her gaze, and Mo Yun just turned around, with a gentle smile on her lips, and nodded to him from a distance.

"!"

But at that moment, Da Fei seemed to see the corners of Mo Yun's mouth suddenly split open to the roots of his ears, revealing a mouth full of sinister fangs, and gray-black chaos gushed out from his pupils, like a demon descending;

The next second, the illusion disappeared again, leaving only the sunlight gently shining on Mo Yun's shoulders. However, Da Fei clearly noticed that the grass under Mo Yun's feet was being dyed into a strange gray-black color at an extremely slow speed.

"impossible……"

Da Fei staggered backward, his back hitting the tree trunk hard, and the fallen fruits hit his head, but the painful touch failed to dispel his confusion.

His breathing became rapid, and his chest rose and fell violently:

"Brother Mo Yun was clearly swallowed by Chaos! And you... you can't even speak!"

There was disbelief in his voice, as if the whole world was collapsing.

"A Fei, you really scared me."

Hai Piao's eyes were red, and she reached out to gently wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, but the moment her fingertips touched Dafei's skin, a strange gray light flashed.

"Just now, you were leaning against this tree, and suddenly a ripe fruit hit you, and you fainted for a while."

Her voice was choked with just the right amount of sobs, but there was no real worry in her eyes.

"How come you don't even remember these things? Do you want to go see Sister Mo Zi?"

As she spoke, she took a step forward and tried to hold Dafei's arm. The moment her sleeve slipped down, Dafei caught a glimpse of a thin chaos chain wrapped around her wrist, glowing dangerously in the sunlight.

"That bell!"

Da Fei stared at the silver bell in Hai Piao's hair, and suddenly found that the originally intact bell body now had a fine crack, as if it had been shattered by some force and then forcibly glued together.

The figures of his companions in the distance gradually became blurred in the sunlight, and the grass under their feet began to seep out of black chaotic mist, like a huge net, slowly spreading towards Dafei.

"..."

But Haipiao still smiled gently, as if nothing had happened. But that smile made Dafei feel creepy, as if he was in a nightmare from which he could never wake up.
