Game of Death: Pretty Crazy

Peng Min felt that the current atmosphere was very sad and awkward.

"Well, don't be sad." He walked to Wei Zixu's side.

Wei Zixu smiled at him: "I'm not sad."

It's not sad to keep dead people's things.Peng Min remembered discussing the type of women he liked with Wei Zixu before. He seemed to like Xiao Hanqing and the like.Combined with his fragile tone when he said "Minze, I'm afraid" in the morning, Peng Min worried that he was under a lot of mental pressure, but he was still brave.

If this was Peng Minze's good buddy from the past, he put his arms around his shoulders to comfort him, and opened a bottle of white wine, and the big trouble would be reduced to a small one when he fell asleep.But he didn't know Wei Zixu that well, and he didn't dare to use Wei Zixu's comforting methods.He pondered for a while, before he spoke:

"Actually, I know a magic. With this magic, I can be safe and sound all night without any accidents."

"Magic?" Wei Zixu looked up at him.

Peng Min nodded solemnly.But he looked more like a well-built gym trainer than a magician.

"I told you before that my parents were shipwrecked and never came back. Not long after that, there was a burst of madness in the village, saying that my parents were captured by a sea monster. There is a legend in our place, When going out to sea at night when there is wind and waves, you will hear the singing of the sea monster near the reef. It is a very beautiful and charming creature. Fishermen ask for blessings when they go out to sea, so as not to run into the sea monster.”

"As for why it is said that my parents were captured by the sea monster, it is because of my grandma. When my grandma married, she was alone without a dowry, but she was said to be a great beauty. Some people rumored that she was transformed by a sea monster to confuse men. Go ashore and live with people. The Kraken is not happy, and not only wants to take her child away, but also her grandson and everyone related to her."

"At that time, I was young and ignorant. I heard that the wind was the rain. I was too scared to go out and sleep. Grandma found out, stroked my back, and asked me if I really believed that she was a siren. I dared not look at her , with her head down. Grandma just smiled, then moved close to my ear and whispered to me."

"She said, yes, she is the siren, so she can speak the language of the siren, the song of the siren. There is a kind of magic in that singing. She uses it to lull me to sleep, and I will be safe."

"Minze," Wei Zixu couldn't stop laughing after listening, "That's superstition."

"What superstition! You still believe in Christ." Peng Min replied, but felt that it was inappropriate to say it, and it seemed to be offensive to people with faith, so he quickly added, "I don't know if Christ exists, but My grandma must exist. I believe in my grandma."

These two three-tone characters are stacked together, and the pronunciation is always a bit milky.And when an adult mentions his elders, he can't help showing childish emotions.Wei Zixu thought it was very cute, so he followed his words and said, "Okay. Namin, will you cast this spell on me?"

Peng Min snorted softly, looking very reliable: "Of course."

Wei Zixu looked at him expectantly.

He opened his mouth and paused before the first syllable, his brows moved slightly closer, his eyeballs rolled up and then turned left and right.

Wei Zixu waited for a long time.

"Minze... did you forget the words, it ruined the atmosphere."

"Quiet!"

He thought about it carefully for a moment.The song escaped from grandma's mouth and dissipated in the air around him, but it could no longer be extracted from the air back into his mind.What's more, grandma doesn't often sing songs to lull him to sleep, let alone so many years have passed.

Peng Min gradually developed a feeling of being publicly executed.

But he couldn't back down, the dignity of a man hung over his head like the sword of Damocles.In the end, his heart sank, he stretched out his right hand and patted Wei Zixu's shoulder, and said sullenly, "Good night!"

Wei Zixu's expression relaxed: "That's it?"

Peng Min explained swearingly: "This is the spirit of speech, and it works just by saying a word. I inherited my grandma, and the magic power is abundant."

Wei Zixu was already holding back his laughter until his stomach ached, and he still wanted to say to him solemnly: "But this sentence is too short, I'm afraid it won't be effective enough."

"Then what do you say—" Peng Min lowered his head to look at Wei Zixu, but Wei Zixu stood up and kissed him gently on the cheek.

"One more goodnight kiss."

Wei Zixu blinked his left eye, his face was close at hand.

Peng Min saw his expression clearly this time.His lips were soft and gorgeous, and his eyes were half-opened, with sparkling water in them.

His breath seemed to carry heat, which set Peng Minze's face on fire.The flow of air between them seems to be slowing down, sniffing carefully, as if there is the smell of alcohol, intoxicating and high-pitched.He only kissed Peng Min and left without any more physical contact, but Peng Min felt numb from that patch of skin, unable to move, a burst of itching rushed from his heart to his groin, which could not go away for a long time.

When he looked at Wei Zixu's lips, the itching magnified into impulsiveness again.What was the impulse, but he didn't dare to continue thinking about it.

In the middle of the night, Wei Zixu opened the door and came out.

The chandelier in the hall was on, and the brightest one in the middle was turned off. The light around it couldn't be compared with the sum of the surrounding lights, and it was half-bright and half-dark.Wei Zixu was about to go downstairs, and inadvertently glanced at the end of the corridor.The windows at the end face south, and the wooden window lattices cannot be opened at ordinary times, and are purely designed for lighting.There is a bleak moonlight tonight, which makes the windows that cannot be illuminated by the light stand out particularly conspicuously.

Wei Zixu was unsteady on his feet, and hurriedly stepped back.Because he vaguely saw a figure leaning against the window, his back looming.His heels hit the wall, and there was a muffled sound, causing the man to turn his head and look at Wei Zixu.

When he turned his head, his whole body finally had some color, like a living person.Wei Zixu took a heavy breath and covered his heart, "Professor Luo, why are you standing there silently, scaring me, I thought..."

"Why do you still think?" Luo He asked.

Wei Zixu looked really frightened, took a few deep breaths before answering Luo He's words, "I thought those lying on the ground were unwilling and wanted to come back and take a look."

"Heh..." Luo He turned sideways, resting his right elbow on the window sill, "Didn't you extradite them to heaven, why did they come back?"

Talking to Luo He at this distance is a bit tiring, and there is Liu Jing's room in between.Wei Zixu smiled, and walked towards Luo He: "Hell, purgatory, heaven, each realm has nine layers, extending layer by layer. I can only lead them to the highest court in hell, and then they become prisoners , or follow the saint to the light, it is beyond my control. Professor Luo, you will get lost in a strange medium-sized city, there are more forks in heaven, and lonely souls are the easiest to get lost."

While speaking, Wei Zixu had already come to Luo He's side, and he could hear a chuckle from his nose, expressing that he could not accept Wei Zixu's preaching.

Wei Zixu didn't care, and changed the subject: "It's so late, what is Professor Luo doing here?"

Luo He: "After watching the movie, I felt a little touched, so I want to go out for a walk."

Wei Zixu: "Oh? What movie, and what did Professor Luo think of?"

Luo He no longer looked at him, turned around, folded his arms, and leaned against the window sill.The moonlight poured down on his face, divided by the shadows of the rigid window lattice, his profile was well-defined, pale and stern.

"The power of wolves is not all real."

"That's right." Wei Zixu smiled from the corner of his eyes and stood shoulder to shoulder with Luo, "Especially wolves who are alone, not to mention hunting, will run away when they see herbivores. Because weak herbivores are always in groups."

The corner of Luo He's mouth seemed to twitch: "Then a wolf that is alone can only choose to act when its prey is asleep. Now at two in the morning, it is the time when sleep is the deepest."

"Oh, so." Wei Zixu asked him with a smile, "Then is Professor Luo squatting like a wolf here?"

Luo He's tone was flat: "I didn't catch a wolf, but I caught you."

"I'm really sorry, I ruined Professor Luo's interest." Wei Zixu stretched his waist, and imitated Luo He's posture, leaning comfortably on the window sill to look at the moon, "I know that Professor Luo believes that I am not a wolf, so I will be with you." I said these words. Otherwise, that smart Professor Luo would not be so stupid if he was alone with the wolf late at night and said something that made him wary. Professor Luo, do you have any questions about my affairs? Just ask me .”

"It's not that there is a question, it's that I have never thought of an answer." Luo He said, "Wei Zixu, you are too contradictory. You believe in God and like Nietzsche. You panicked like that on the first day, but now you can do it like that." Calm down. The more I get in touch with you, the more I can't understand you. You make me feel very dangerous."

"Professor Luo," Wei Zixu sighed, "Why do you make my thoughts so complicated? I am not as strict as Professor Luo, and I do many things out of my temper. Regarding belief, Nietzsche's words are always I was so impressed. He said: 'You have not found yourself, but you have found me. All believers are like this, so all faith is so small.' When I read this sentence as a child, I kept thinking about the role of faith. I mean."

Luo He was silent for a long time.

"What about you?" He raised his chin slightly, turned his head, and stared at Wei Zixu's eyes, which were as sharp as a falcon.

"Wei Zixu, have you found your 'self'?"

"Don't show your valuables"

"Don't dress revealingly in public"

"Don't go to remote places"

After Little Bell Pepper's accident, Wei Zixu's parents took care of him more strictly.I can't go to a friend's house to play during the holidays, and I go to and from school all in my father's car. Of course, I am not allowed to go to the street to play alone.He was put into an airtight birdcage, and people outside the cage could not only admire his bright and beautiful feathers, but also ensure that he was always under their noses.

Wei Zixu is very sensible.He knew his parents were right to do so.If given the chance to do it all over again, Pepper's parents would do the same.

He just didn't understand, did she do something wrong in the death of Little Sweet Pepper?

If it's not the child's fault, why is all the discipline and warning directed at the child?

When encountering bad guys, you should run away quickly, try to accommodate the rogues as much as possible, and if there is a conflict, those who don't have a knife should be subdued first.Are bad guys inherently stronger than us?Do we have to live tremblingly because we obey the law?Are those rules and regulations, not as weapons, but as shackles?

Shouldn't we be the one who is righteous?

Mom, I still don't understand.

You said that a beautiful vase is too fragile and needs to be protected.

But you didn't say, why would someone break it?

Those who abide by the law dodge everywhere, and those who ignore the law run free.

Wei Zixu is still as cheerful as before, actively socializing.The grown-ups were doing things that puzzled him, yet they still explained them grandly.Wei Zixu thought that he was not smart enough to understand the good intentions of adults.When he was smart enough, he realized that he was actually not numb enough.

On the day of Little Sweet Pepper's burial, he secretly left the mourning team.I ran to the coast alone, untied my schoolbag, and climbed onto the reef.

The turbulent waves under his feet rushed over and hit the reef.He fumbled out a new string of hair ties, and the tomatoes had been painted with acrylic paint to look like bell peppers.He let go, and the head rope fell straight into the sea and disappeared without a trace. "Sorry, I originally wanted to give you the summer vacation, but it has been delayed until now."

Wei Zixu stared at the place where the head rope fell.The surface of the sea was churning and bubbling, as if someone was gradually suffocating below.The pure white waves gradually formed the arms, head and feet of a man, like a soaked corpse, being pushed and shoved to him.At that time, Wei Zixu was very weak, but he believed that there was a perfect law, and there were powerful people to stand up to it, so it didn't matter to become strong.

Until he saw the girl struggling in the sea.

Maybe there is no lack of justice and rules in this world, they can lock up little sweet peppers for protection, and bring the bad guys to justice.

However, he couldn't save her.

"Actually, yesterday, I wanted to talk to my parents about you. But I think it's better not to waste their time."

"Little Bell Pepper, you know, you are not as important as a house."

He still doesn't understand.The lonely little boy squatting on the rock is still confused after many years.Only one thing is certain.From that day on, Wei Zixu became afraid of the sea.

"Goo-"

Wei Zixu smiled awkwardly, "Actually, I came out to have a late-night snack. I didn't expect to chat with Professor Luo for so long."

Luo He looked back, "Then you go."

"Do you need me to take Professor Luo back to the room? It's quite cold in the corridor."

"Need not."

After being rejected by Luo He, Wei Zixu stopped being polite, turned around and walked towards the stairs.After walking a few steps, he suddenly remembered something and called Luo He.Luo He looked back at him.

The pale moonlight shone on him, and he stood in the center of the light, his beard and hair fully visible.And Wei Zixu was covered by the shadow of the corridor, his face was unclear.Between them, light and darkness suddenly split, abrupt and ferocious.Wei Zixu smiled at him in the shadows, speaking sincerely and calmly.

"God bless you."

Fifth day, end.
