Chapter 34
Chapter 34
After taking the bus for ten hours, Ji Xinghu and Luan Shu arrived in Fuyun County at five o'clock in the afternoon, and after another hour's bus ride, they finally arrived at Keketuohai Town.
When I got out of the car, there was sporadic snow in the sky.
Ji Xinghu heard the people next to him say that this is the first snow this year.
Romance is romance, but it's so cold.
Luan Shu booked the hotel in advance, and the two of them followed the mobile phone navigation to find it, checked in, went up to the fifth floor, and swiped their cards to enter the room.
The room is not big, but it looks clean and tidy, very nice.
"It snowed just in October, it's so fucking cold." Ji Xinghu turned on the air conditioner and adjusted it to warm air. He rubbed his arms and walked to the window, opened the curtains "swish", and crossed the Keketuohai. The Irtysh River had a panoramic view, "Little tree, don't rush to clean it up, come and take a look, it's so beautiful."
Luan Shu put down his schoolbag and came over, standing beside Lonely Star Lake.
The remote towns do not have the bright neon lights of the city, only sparse lights, and the Irtysh River is hidden in the hazy light and shadow, appearing silent and distant.
The first snow is as fine as dust, if you don't look closely, it will melt into the night, and the snow particles are blown by the wind on the glass, making a faint sound.
I heard that if you confess to someone you like when you are new to snow, your secret love will come true.
Luan Shu turned his head to look at Lonely Star Lake, he wanted to verify it.
It couldn't be more appropriate to confess in this place that has special meaning to Lonely Star Lake.
The right time, the right place, and the harmony of people, he didn't want to hesitate any longer.
"What are you looking at me for?" Ji Xinghu said with a smile, "Look at the beautiful scenery outside."
Luan Shu turned his head and looked out the window without making a sound.
"Do you know what 'Ke Ke Tuo Hai' means?" asked Lonely Star Lake.
Luan Shu knew it, but he still asked cooperatively, "What do you mean?"
Ji Xinghu said: "In Kazakh it means 'green forest', in Mongolian it means 'blue river bend', both meanings are beautiful, aren't they?"
Luan Shu gave a "hmm".
Ji Xinghu smiled and said, "I wish I grew up here."
Luan Shu didn't respond, and stood quietly for a while, then said, "Let's take a shower first, and then go out to have some serious meals."
Ji Xinghu nodded: "Okay."
"You wash first," Luan Shu said, "I'll go out and buy two thick clothes."
Ji Xinghu directly took off his sweater and put it on Luan Shu's head: "Wear thicker, go back quickly."
Luan Shu got dressed, took out his cell phone and went out.
After turning on the air conditioner for a while, the indoor temperature has risen slightly. Ji Xinghu stripped naked, walked into the bathroom wearing slippers, tore off the packaging of the disposable toothbrush, squeezed the toothpaste, and poured water while brushing his teeth. Under the shower head, let the hot water wash over your tired body.
Suddenly, my back itch without warning.
An itchy back is a sign of turning into a bird.
Alarm bells rang in his mind, Ji Xinghu hurriedly spit out the toothpaste foam in his mouth, and didn't care about rinsing his mouth, and ran out dripping wet.
He took out his mobile phone from his pants pocket and hurriedly called Luan Shu.
Luan Shu quickly picked it up, and Ji Xinghu hurriedly said: "Little Shu, I might be changing into a bird, you come back soon—" Before the last word "come" could be said, Ji Xinghu suddenly let out a cry of pain, and sent a voice behind his back. The burning pain came suddenly and intensely, and immediately after, a pair of huge white wings sprouted from the bare back!
When Luan Shu received the call from Ji Xinghu, Luan Shu had just gone downstairs and hadn't gone far. He heard what Ji Xinghu said, and immediately ran back. The elevator was going up. He rushed into the corridor, ran up to the fifth floor in one breath, and knocked on the door hard , panting roughly: "Xing'er, open the door!"
There was no sound from the door.
Luan Shu went downstairs immediately, went to the front desk to get the room card, ran upstairs again, swiped the card, carefully pushed the door open a crack, squeezed his body in, closed the door and locked it.
Lonely Star Lake has turned into a snow peacock.
A snow-white peacock was standing on the bed, its wings and tail feathers were folded, and its dark eyes were staring at the eucalyptus tree not far away.
Luan Shu was sweating profusely and his heart was beating wildly. He stood still and didn't dare to move, so he called softly, "Xing'er?"
The peacock chirped.
Luan Shu was extremely nervous: "If you can understand what I'm saying, just nod."
The peacock nodded and chirped again.
Luan Shu heaved a sigh of relief.
After transforming in Hidden Dragon Mountain last time, Ji Xinghu said that after turning into a peacock, his consciousness exists and is clear, but at the same time there is another consciousness that overrides his consciousness, as if the consciousness is split, One is divided into two, one is strong and the other is weak, and the strong side can determine the actions of the body.
But judging from the current situation, Peacock can not only understand human words, but also respond accordingly. The strength seems to be reversed, and the consciousness of Jixing Lake has taken the lead.
This is about a kind of super speed evolution, Luan Shu thought.
For the first time, Lonely Star Lake only grew a pair of wings.
The second time, he was completely transformed into a peacock, and the consciousness existed but was suppressed by another consciousness.
For the third time, he already had the dominion over the peacock's body.
By the fourth time, Ji Xinghu might be able to light up the ability to switch between the human body and the peacock.
After sorting out quickly and simply, Luan Shu's thoughts became clear. He walked to the window, drew the curtains, and then came to Peacock and asked, "Do you still know who I am?"
The peacock nodded and chirped in a low voice.
Luan Shu came a little closer, stretched out his hand boldly, and gently stroked the peacock's slender and graceful neck. Its feathers still shone with tiny light spots, its tentacles were smooth and cold, and the temperature around it seemed to have dropped a little.
"Don't be afraid," Luan Shu said, "I will accompany you."
The peacock chirped lowly, resting its head on Luan Shu's shoulder, its feather crown lightly brushed against his neck, causing it to itch.
Compared with the thrilling experience in Hidden Dragon Mountain last time, the situation this time is already very good, Luan Shu is very grateful.
The only way right now is to wait for Xue Peacock to automatically recover its human form, otherwise, Luan Shu has nothing to do.
"Can you try to become a human?" Even though he asked, Luan Shu basically gave up hope.
This time the peacock didn't respond. It stood quietly with its eyes closed, probably trying to transform itself. After a while, it opened its eyes and shook its head.
"It's okay," Luan Shu said, "wait slowly."
Luan Shu picked up the clothes and trousers that fell on the floor and threw them on the chair, then picked up the mobile phone, and sat next to the peacock, feeling a chill coming over him immediately.
Peacock could only nod and shake his head, unable to talk normally, so Luan Shu remained silent, sorting out the messy thoughts in his mind.
The peacock suddenly called twice, and Luan Shu asked, "What's wrong?"
Peacock pressed his head against his arm. Even with apartheid now, Luan Shu could still understand Ji Xinghu's mind instantly. He stood up and turned to look at Peacock: "And then?"
The peacock replaced answers with actions.
The slender white tail feathers slowly erected and opened, it was performing a peacock spread!
The tail feathers are branched out layer by layer, forming a pure white, shining semicircle, which is dazzling.
Luan Shu was shocked by this beautiful scene, he stared straight at the peacock, and the peacock seemed to be staring at him too.
The peacock chirped a few times, the sound was clear and sweet, very pleasant to hear.
Luan Shu came back to his senses, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind: the peacock spreading its tail is an act of showing love, rounded up, it is roughly equivalent to Xing'er confessing to him.
Luan Shu lowered his eyes and smiled, not only felt that this idea was absurd, but also felt that it would be great if Xing'er really liked him.
Seeing that Luan Shu didn't respond, the peacock croaked again.
Luan Shu looked up at it: "Do you want me to take a picture?"
Peacock nods.
Luan Shu laughed, took out his mobile phone, and took a picture of the peacock spreading its tail.
After shooting, the peacock retracted its tail feathers, opened its wings instead, and flew towards the window with a slight movement.
"Xing'er!" Luan Shu was startled, thinking that it was going to break through the window and fly away, so he hurried over to grab it, but unexpectedly the peacock turned around suddenly and circled in a limited space.
Countless light spots swayed and fell, like fireflies, and like the first snow outside the window.
The eucalyptus tree was wrapped in it, and he stretched out his hand to pick it up, and the light spots fell on his palm, giving off a slight coolness.
The peacock was calling. Luan Shu couldn't understand the bird's language, but he understood its meaning. He took out his mobile phone, switched the camera to video mode, and recorded a video of the circling peacock.
Both wonderful and absurd.
It feels very unreal.
After flying for a while, the peacock fell back on the bed.
Luan Shu finished filming and said with a smile, "Don't worry about it, let's take a break."
The peacock turned around on the bed, grabbed the corner of the quilt with its sharp beak, and pulled the quilt away.
"Let me sleep?" Luan Shu asked.
Peacock nods.
Luan Shu sat down and raised his hand to stroke the peacock's feather crown: "I won't sleep, I will stay with you."
Peacock closed his eyes, lay on the bed sideways, and closed his eyes.
Luan Shu smiled and said, "You want to sleep with me?"
Peacock nods.
"Okay then." Luan Shu took off his shoes and prepared to go to bed, but the peacock was too big to fit in the 1.8-meter bed, and its tail feathers were half hanging on the ground.
"You come down first," Luan Shu said, "I'll make the bed."
The peacock was very obedient, and flew to the ground with flapping wings.
Luan Shu pushed the bed inwards so that it was leaning against the wall, and moved the bedside table to make a spacious space. He dragged all the bedding to the floor and made it evenly. Then he said to the peacock, "Sleep on the floor tonight." Well, fortunately, it’s a wooden floor, so it won’t be too cold.”
The peacock walked over with its white tail feathers, and lay on the bed sideways, and Luan Shu lay beside it, covered the quilt, and turned to face it.
The peacock opened its eyes, its eyes were black and bright, piercing.
Luan Shu smiled and said, "It feels so strange to sleep with a peacock."
The peacock brought his head closer and arched his neck.
The feathers scratched his skin itchy, Luan Shu laughed out loud, put his arms around the peacock's slender neck, and said, "Hey, don't make trouble."
The peacock spread one wing and covered Luan Shu's body, just like usual, Ji Xinghu always likes to put an arm across Luan Shu's chest.
This incomparably familiar intimacy and dependence filled Luan Shu's chest with tender feelings. He gently rubbed his face against the cool smooth feathers of the peacock, and said softly, "Thank you, Xing'er, I didn't lose it this time." Get me down."
The peacock uttered a low cry, Luan Shu smiled and said, "Go to sleep, when you wake up, you should be able to become a human."
Although he was still uneasy, the 30-hour train and 10-hour car made Luan Shu extremely exhausted, and he fell into a deep sleep.
It was still snowing outside the window.
Snow grains turned into snowflakes, falling silently into the Irtysh River.
After a night without dreams, Luan Shu woke up in the faint morning light.
Ji Xinghu really turned back, with his head resting on his arm, lying naked in his arms, cuddling him tightly as if afraid of the cold.
Luan Shu reached out to touch his face, the tentacles were soft and soft.
It's not a dream, it's real.
Ji Xinghu's eyelashes trembled suddenly, and before Luan Shu could withdraw his hand, he opened his eyes and woke up.
At this moment, Luan Shu said in a hoarse voice, "Xing'er, I like you."
Half a round of red sun hangs on the horizon, and the red light is like a flame sprinkled on the world.
Luan Shu's eyes also had flames, more blazing than the sun, Lonely Star Lake was almost burned, he suspected that he was dreaming, closed his eyes forcefully, opened them again, and still met Luan Shu's scorching gaze.
Luan Shu spoke again, with a deep and hoarse voice: "Xing'er, I like you for a long, long time."
