Chapter 150 Butterfly Transformation
byChapter 150 Butterfly Transformation
Zhai Qingyu's palms were warm, but it didn't feel like being rubbed by his palms. It felt as light as a kite blowing from his hair.
Shan Nan didn't move for a while, "Why are there so many fewer butterflies of other species in your herbarium than blue butterflies?" Except for blue butterflies, other butterflies in the specimen boxes are also very hard to see.
"I think there are quite a lot, quite a few." Zhai Qingyu was referring to the butterfly specimens of different colors, which he felt were not too few.
"I mean in comparison." Shannan said.
"That's a bit less." Zhai Qingyu's pale eyelids drooped a little tiredly, as if he had entered a state of rest.
The house was eerily quiet at the moment, with not even a hint of cool breeze outside. There were no cars passing by on the road, but occasionally there would be an old man passing by with a backpack carrying a plastic bucket and fishing rod bag.
The two alpacas I saw on the first day were squatting under the shade of a big tree. Today they ate apples and pears.
"I saw a blue butterfly that was bigger than those butterflies last night. I felt like that butterfly could talk," Shang Nan said slowly, "It was very big. I have never seen such a big butterfly.", I’ve never even seen it in cartoons, and then it suddenly flew towards me and then disappeared.”
"Brother Qingyu, is there a mountain god in this mountain?" Shang Nan asked a question that sounded innocent.
Zhai Qingyu didn't answer. He was gentle, but his attitude towards people was too arbitrary. If he was in a good mood, he would talk to people more. If he was in a good mood but didn't want to talk, he would remain silent no matter how you guided him.
Shang Nan secretly bit his back teeth, looked at Zhai Qingyu, and said tentatively: "After that butterfly disappeared, a butterfly mark appeared on my neck. Did that butterfly fly into my body?"
Zhai Qingyu finally opened his eyes, "Where?"
Shang Nan's eyes were filled with joy, and he immediately untied his collar, pointed at the small blue butterfly on his neck that was more lifelike than the tattoo, and said, "Can you see it? And the touch of the butterfly mark is different from the touch of ordinary skin." This pointShang Nan was really confused. He didn't understand why this was happening. Part of the monster entering his body was indeed something that frightened him.
Zhai Qingyu can use this method to control almost everyone in the world, which is scary to think about. Fortunately, he only focuses on committing suicide and making his own body into a specimen.
Zhai Qingyu's eyebrows frowned visibly. The butterfly seemed to be attached to the stamens of a flower. If you blinked, it looked like it was alive.
"Are you feeling any physical discomfort?" Zhai Qingyu asked Shannan. After asking, he also looked at the other person's face and spirit. They were all pretty good.
Shang Nan shook his head and said: "There is nothing uncomfortable. It's just that I suddenly felt heartache in bed last night." Faintly, Shang Nan may know how to communicate with Zhai Qingyu - just pretend to be stupid and pretend not to understand anything. Since Zhai Qingyu is willing to communicate withHis Symbiosis must have accepted him from the bottom of his heart, but apart from that, the superficial relationship between him and Zhai Qingyu did not seem to have become close. But this seemingly superficial intimacy is the real closeness to each other, otherwise Symbiosis would not haveany sense.
Zhai Qingyu's eyes slowly moved away, and finally fell on the lawn outside. The lawn was full of white flowers. From a distance, it looked like a fresh and green field. After looking at it for a while, he withdrew his gaze and raised his hands.He leaned down and buttoned up Shannan's unbuttoned collar with his own hands.
His breathing was very light, almost like the weight of a butterfly falling gracefully after choosing food, and it appeared above Shang Nan's head. Shang Nan heard Zhai Qingyu say, "Don't show the mark to others casually in the future."
“They would ask me where I got the tattoo.”
Zhai Qingyu laughed dumbly, "...No, because this is very strange. Human beings like to pay attention to others and also like to discriminate against others."
Shang Nan: "But you still didn't tell me why."
"Because I don't know either."
"oh."
Zhai Qingyu helped Shang Nan fasten the buttons and patted his back, "Help me remove the dust from those specimens. Mother Zhang will teach you how to do it."
Now that he was able to work, Shannan stood up, put the book on the table, and stretched a little, "Brother Qingyu, I'm leaving then."
Just when he was about to go outside to find Zhang Ma, the landline phone in the room rang. Shan Nan stopped walking and said, "Shall I pick it up?"
Zhai Qingyu: "Please answer the phone. Do you need a salary to answer the phone?"
Shannan walked towards the phone and said, "Count it as a gift from me."
He is a little livelier than Zhai Qingyu imagined and seemed at first glance, and he doesn't seem as smart as he looks.
"Hello, hello, I'm Zhai Qingming's classmate. Zhai Qingming went out to play with his friends. Zhai Qingyu asked me to help answer the phone. If you have anything, you can tell me and I will convey it to you." He said a lot in one breath, but he said it very clearly.clear.
The person on the other side of the phone sounded friendly, "Hey, he's Xiao Ming's classmate. I'm Xiao Ming's mother."
Shannan's eyelids twitched suddenly, and he glanced at Zhai Qingyu secretly. The latter didn't seem to be curious at all about who called, and had already picked up the poetry book and started flipping through it.
"Well, are you looking for Qingming's?" Shannan asked.
"Why am I looking for that boy? If I say one more word to him, I'm afraid that I will lose a year of my life," Zhai's mother said in a disgusted tone, "I'm looking for Qingyu. There will be a large-scale exhibition at the Yuncheng Flower Market next week. There are many rare things.The rare varieties will be on display that day. Qing Yu has always liked flowers and plants. If he wants to go, Xiao Ming is on summer vacation, so he can let Xiao Ming go with him."
Shan Nan covered the receiver and conveyed it to Zhai Qingyu, "Are you going?"
Zhai Qingyu turned over a page of the book and said, "Let's talk more."
Shang Nan also conveyed these two words to Zhai's mother.
Zhai's mother sighed on the other end of the phone, but it was just a sigh, and she said angrily, "This kid." After that, she became concerned about Shannan Lai, "Xiao Ming told me before that he would bring his classmates to his home.Play, I thought he was just for fun. He brought you here. He took you directly to the villa in Qingqi Mountain to play. He didn’t say he would bring you home to meet us. In two days, Xiao Ming will take you there.Come home, his father and I will entertain you well."
"Okay, thank you, auntie." Shannan said.
After hanging up the phone, Shan Nan briefly recalled that except for what Zhai Qingyu was talking about at the beginning, he never mentioned Zhai Qingyu again.
Also, she didn't ask Zhai Qingming to take him and Wei Jie to play in the city, but to take him and Wei Jie home.
So the house where Zhai Qingyu lives and the place called Qingqing Mountain are no longer home?
"Brother Qingyu, do you want to go to the flower show? I'll go with you." Shannan said proactively.
Zhai Qingyu raised his eyes, and the line of his neck and jaw line formed a very gentle arc. "Xiao Ming likes you, do you know?" He was gentle yet decisive.
Shan Nan's breath was stagnant, "I didn't know before, but now I know."
"Don't get too close to me, he will be sad." Zhai Qingyu said calmly.
Is Zhai Qingming hurt? What happened to Guan Shangnan?He has no obligation to pay for everyone's emotions and repay the same amount of emotions. "Qingming and I are good friends. He has never told me that he likes him. What's more, I don't like him."
"Brother Qingyu, let me go with you." Shannan said again.
Zhai Qingyu closed the book and placed it flat on his knees, "Okay, then you go with me, remember to tell Xiao Ming."
The two alpacas outside the house had finished their fruit meal and were taking a nap next to each other.
The progress is good, Shannan thought.
There were more butterfly specimens than Shannan had imagined. The cabinet was tall and had many layers. Each specimen had to be put back into its original position after being wiped. Even if Zhai Qingyu hadn't said it, Shannan would have paid attention to this.
Zhang Ma was worried before leaving the specimen room, "Oh, this was originally the job of housekeeper Zhou, but now you are the only one here. Why hasn't the new guy arrived yet... Xiaonan, don't fall, but fall."It doesn’t matter if it’s broken, the Zhai family can afford to pay for it.”
Shan Nan also heard her saying to herself: "Raising one disabled person is also caring, raising two is also caring..."
Shang Nan: ...Can you say this casually?
"What kind of butterfly is this?" Shonan held a specimen box containing two white butterflies in his hand. Their abdomens were particularly round and plump. There were black dots on the wings, all over the front and rear wings of the butterfly. The overall look was just like this.The belly is as thick and round.
[14: I haven’t seen it before. There is no such butterfly in the information.]
Shang Nan gently wiped the outside of the specimen with a quick soft cloth. Every time he wiped it, an additional piece of information appeared in 14's database. Until Shang Nan completely wiped the specimen box clean, all the information on the two butterflies was clear..
14The indifferent and mechanical voice of a young man sounded in Shannan's mind.
[14: Li Xiong and Li Chuan were a pair of fat twins. They were Zhai Qingyu’s former junior high school classmates. They have died. This is the specimen of the two of them.]
Shang Nan almost threw the specimen box out of his hand.
"These are two people?!" Shonan was so surprised that he couldn't stand on the ladder. After it was about to collapse, he hugged the ladder, "Did Zhai Qing kill him?"
[14: Not exactly, they are counterattacked by the blackening value. You can touch other specimens with your hands.]
The sun was so bright that it dazzled his eyes, but Shannan felt that all his fingers had lost their temperature, as if they were frozen. He touched a few butterfly specimens with trembling fingers, without even seeing the touched specimens clearly.What exactly does the butterfly inside the box look like?
[14: Only one of them is a real butterfly, the gray one, the one with the lowest brightness is a real butterfly, and the brightly colored ones are all humans, all dead.]
[14: After retrieval, a sentence popped up at the back of my system, which can be used to comfort the host.]
Shang Nan was looking up at the butterfly specimens, and he asked, "What are you talking about?"
[14: Becoming a butterfly is a way of death that is as romantic as poetry. Becoming a specimen is not a kind of eternal life?]
[14: Li Xiong and Li Chuan, the twins, once visited Zhai Qingyu in the hospital one month after he was admitted to the hospital, and said many words that seemed to be caring but were actually unpleasant.]
"Zhai Qingyu, I heard that you will never be able to walk again. You are so pitiful."
"Then don't you want to go to a school for the disabled?"
"How are you going to walk? You can't walk on both legs, and you can't even jump around. In this case, you can only use a wheelchair, but...is there a wheelchair school in Yuncheng?"
"You still need to see a psychiatrist. People who are disabled are usually perverted! They will take revenge on society!"
[14: After Zhai Qingyu jumped from the building, they came to visit Zhai Qingyu again.]
"Why are you still committing suicide? I told you to see a psychiatrist. Look, you have already started to become abnormal!"
"Isn't it just that you can't walk? What's the big deal? Your family is rich and you have two gold prosthetic legs. You're so handsome."
"What does it feel like to jump off a building? It will hurt a lot, but you won't feel it in your legs, haha."
[14: The light green butterfly specimen above your head is Zhai Qingyu’s cousin, Zhai Qingrong. Because she once wanted to introduce her friend to Zhai Qingyu but was rejected. Zhai Qingrong cursed Zhai Qingyu. I won’t read the details.You heard it, you humans cursed the same kind of people so filthy, you stabbed them in the heart.]
[14: The red and black one is the master who helped the Zhai family's parents plot against Zhai Qingyu, and the little white butterfly in the same specimen box is his apprentice.]
[14: In addition to these, there are many more. The scope of its backlash exceeds your imagination. With an attitude of never forgiving, it has been dealt with all.]
When he started cleaning the specimen box again, Shang Nan's mood was completely different from the beginning.
Wherever he was cleaning specimen boxes, he was cleaning coffins.
What was inside was not butterflies, but people who had trampled on Zhai Qingyu.
No wonder he said before that the number of these butterfly specimens was small, and Zhai Qingyu said a lot. He didn't understand at the time, wasn't it obvious that the number of blue butterflies was overwhelming?
It turned out that he and Zhai Qingyu were not talking about the same thing at all. He was talking about butterflies, and Zhai Qingyu was talking about dead people.
Shang Nan does not feel unfair to these dead people at all. Legally, punishments are graded, but it is difficult to clearly grade the pain caused by certain behaviors to the parties involved.
[14: Zhai Qingyu is much better now than before. When the blackening value first appeared and gradually increased, there were many talents who were attacked. Now he stays alone in the mountains, and no one will step on his head. His parentsI haven’t been to Qingqi Mountain in several years.]
Zhai Qingyu sealed his body and mind in Qingqi Mountain, and lived a long and hopeless life with these specimens.
Every time a specimen was rubbed, Shannan would look at it carefully for a while, which made goosebumps all over his body.
When the specimen was being rubbed, the door was pushed open. It was Zhang Ma. Behind Zhang Ma was a big boy. He was very strong, very black, with very white teeth. He was wearing a black shirt with tight fabric.
"This is Xiao Li who is taking care of Xiao Yu on behalf of Housekeeper Zhou during this period. Xiaonan, come down and let Xiao Li wipe it."
"Hey, okay." Shan Nan put the specimen back reluctantly, feeling sorry for his high-paying job.
Going down the ladder, before Shannan could step on the last few steps, he felt someone grab his waist, and in the blink of an eye, he was standing on the ground.
"?"
Li Qidong grinned with big white teeth, "How about it? Am I strong?"
Zhang’s mother covered her mouth and kept laughing, “Xiao Li only went to junior high school and has been working on the construction site. But he is thoughtful and has studied and passed many certifications as a nutritionist, masseur, and nurse. It is difficult to find one in Yuncheng."
No wonder Li Qidong looked so dark and strong. Shang Nan felt like he could be knocked unconscious by the opponent's punch.
"Then you wipe it, I'm going out first." Shannan said.
People in the kitchen were preparing lunch. Zhai Qingyu fell asleep leaning on the back of his wheelchair. The book on the coffee table next to him was still open. The last page happened to have only the last sentence - "After the first death, death will never happen again."no longer".
After dinner, Shang Nan and Li Qidong played checkers by the window in the living room. Li Qidong only knew this kind of game.
Zhai Qingyu was reading a book nearby.
"I have six brothers and one sister. My eldest brother's name is Li Yongdong, my second brother's name is Li Erdong, and I am the seventh, so I am called Li Qidong." Li Qidong chatted with Shannan.
"What about your sister, Li Badong?" When Shang Nan asked, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"My sister is not called 1234567. My sister's name is Li Mengran. It sounds nice." Li Qidong said proudly.
Good guy, among all these children, only the girl's name is well chosen.
"Your sister's name is really nice." Shannan praised.
"Your name is also nice. Are all college students' names so nice?" Li Qidong's face was filled with envy.
"Well, this varies from person to person and has nothing to do with academic qualifications."
The two chatted animatedly, but Li Qidong was paying attention to Zhai Qingyu every moment. It could be seen that he cherished this job. It was easy for him to find a job, but it was difficult to find a job with such a high salary.
Amateurs are not as good as professionals. During those few hours when Shang Nan temporarily substituted for work, Zhai Qingyu must have been very hard because Shang Nan didn't know what he was going to do. Zhai Qingyu had to speak every time, but Li Qidong didn't need Zhai Qingyu's command at all.He himself knew what to do when, and even the water in Zhai Qingyu's cup kept hot.
It was almost ten o'clock when Zhai Qingming and Wei Jie came back in a hurry. Wei Jie was carrying a large bucket of kiwi juice, "I bought it from the scenic spot."
Zhai Qingming put down the car keys, "I'm speechless. Do you know how much this bucket costs? Three hundred yuan!!!"
Wei Jie couldn't wait to pour a few glasses for the people in the living room to taste, "This is not an ordinary kiwi fruit juice, this kiwi fruit is grown in special soil. It is sweet and sour, sweet but not greasy..."
Shannan took a sip and said, "It's almost the same."
Wei Jie's face stiffened, "Can't you just lie to me? Anyway, I've been deceived, and I don't mind being deceived to the end."
Zhai Qingming smiled and fell on the sofa.
"By the way, Qingming," Shannan drank up the special kiwi juice in one breath before remembering to talk to Zhai Qingming, "I'm going to accompany your brother to a flower show in the city next week, will you go??”
Wei Jie was having fun and said, "I won't go."
Of course Zhai Qingming wanted to go, but before he opened his mouth, he heard Zhai Qingyu say: "When you bring your classmates to Yuncheng, you should treat them well and accompany me to see the flowers."
As soon as the words came out, Zhai Qingming had no choice but to say nothing.
"But Shangnan, have you recovered from your injury?" Zhai Qingming was a little worried. The weather is too hot now, and he may get infected if he is not careful.
Shang Nan scratched his shoulder, "The scabs have grown fleshy, so it shouldn't affect viewing the exhibition. I asked, and it's indoors."
"That's it." There was no hint of joy in Zhai Qingming's tone and expression.
After playing the last game of chess with Shannan, Li Qidong looked at Zhai Qingyu cautiously, "Brother, it's time to rest."
After Zhai Qingyu nodded, Li Qidong immediately stood up and walked behind Zhai Qingyu and started pushing the wheelchair.
"Good night." Zhai Qingyu said with a faint smile. He didn't look at who he said it to, so there was no precise person to whom he was saying good night.
Shan Nan, Zhai Qingming and Wei Jie all replied to say good night.
Wei Jie was still in high spirits. After Zhai Qingyu went upstairs, he patted Zhai Qingming and said, "Do you have poker? I want to play Landlord."
Zhai Qingming knows how to play a lot of cards, but he plays very little Landlords. He got up from the sofa and said, "I'll look for it. There should be some."
Soon, Zhai Qingming took a new box of poker cards and sat down on the carpet cross-legged while opening it. "Come on, don't play with money. Playing with money is boring. I'm not short of money. Let's play truth or dare."
Shang Nan: "I can do either." After saying that, he handed the empty water glass to Wei Jie, "Pour me another glass of your 300 yuan kiwi fruit juice. It's delicious."
"Don't you fucking look down on me?!" Wei Jie scolded and poured a large glass for Shan Nan.
Shang Nan's poker skills are not good, Zhai Qingming's poker skills are not good either, Wei Jie's poker skills are the best, otherwise he would not call for poker.
Shoonan lost the first round. Shoonan finally pressed a 6 and couldn't get out at all. He lost his card and said, "I'll tell you the truth." The reason why he didn't choose Dare or Dare was because he didn't want to be pranked by these two people, such as:Go and kiss an alpaca mouth to mouth for twenty seconds.
He has no secrets that cannot be told, so he tells the truth.
Zhai Qingming and Wei Jie discussed each other for half a minute, then Wei Jie asked, "Do you like boys or girls?"
Shannan said calmly, "Male."
Zhai Qingming's eyes lit up and he asked eagerly, "What type?"
Shan Nan made a scissor hand gesture, "This is the second question."
After getting the answer, Zhai Qingming felt like he had been injected with chicken blood, but no matter how much chicken blood he injected, it could not save his poker skills.
In the second round, Zhai Qingming lost. He also chose to tell the truth. He was quite expecting Shannan to ask embarrassing questions.
The result was Wei Jie asking, "Are you wearing a triangle or a boxer?"
"…Flat angle."
In the third round, Wei Jie lost and he chose to take a big risk. Shang Nan and Zhai Qingming hit it off immediately, "Take a bite of mustard."
Wei Jie loved to play and could afford to lose. He took a big mouthful of mustard, his face was red and his eyes were filled with tears. He dug out all the eighteen generations of Shang Nan and Zhai Qingming's ancestors and scolded them twice.
Zhai Qingming has been peeking at Shannan. Truth or Dare is actually very suitable for couples or people who are in an ambiguous period or who are about to communicate with each other. With the help of the game, you can learn more about things that are usually difficult to know.
But Zhai Qingming found Shannan difficult to contact and understand. No matter what he asked, he answered frankly.
If Shang Nan had feelings for him, he would probably feel uncomfortable, but Shang Nan didn't seem to care whether he was there or not.
Shannan lost again. He still chose to tell the truth. He didn't want to eat mustard at all.
Zhai Qingming asked anxiously, "What type of men do you like?"
A vague figure appeared in Shannan's mind, gentle and lonely, just like the moon in the mountains every night, bright and bright, but inexplicably making people feel lonely and lost.
"I like someone who is gentle and aloof. The eyebrows don't need to be very thick, and the eyes don't need to be big, but the temperament is very good, and the temperament is very gentle and tolerant." They are all described according to Zhai Qingyu's feelings for Shannan.
Zhai Qingming's expression changed obviously, from expectation to depression, because the characteristics described by Shang Nan had nothing to do with him.
When asked again about Zhai Qingming's true feelings, Zhai Qingming said: "I like my good brother."
Wei Jie's eyes almost popped out of his head, "Holy crap!!! You're actually so good at this. The rabbit won't eat the grass beside the nest. You want to kill your own people?! Who is it?"
Zhai Qingming was weak, "I'll tell you who it is when I lose again."
Shang Nan's eyes flashed, not as excited as Wei Jie, not as curious as him.
Zhai Qingming may have secretly made up his mind, but God didn't give him any chance. Either the landlord or the farmer would win. Anyway, he would win every time.
Shan Nan lost again. He thought for a while and said, "This time, I choose to take a big risk."
Wei Jie geared up, and Zhai Qingming put his troubles behind him and became more energetic, "You go upstairs to find my brother and say you want to sleep with him tonight."
"?" Wei Jie was stunned for a few seconds, and then he fell asleep on the carpet and patted the carpet, "Oh, oh, oh, this is a good idea, go, go, go, remember to record the video with your phone, otherwise what would you do if you didn't ask??”
Just in line with the idea of appreciating the south.
Shang Nan got up from the ground, picked up his cell phone on the sofa, unlocked it, turned on the camera, clicked on the video shooting option, and pressed start in front of Zhai Qingming and Wei Jie, "I'll go then."
Wei Jie and Zhai Qingming looked like they were watching a good show.
After Shang Nan went upstairs, Wei Jie was worried again, "Qingming, will your brother beat Shang Nan?"
"What are you thinking about?" Zhai Qing took a look at Wei Jie and said, "My brother has trouble turning over in bed, why do you expect him to hit someone?"
Wei Jie was confused, "That's a bit unpleasant to say."
Zhai Qingming scratched the back of his head and said, "I just said it casually without thinking too much about it."
The lights in the corridor upstairs are voice-activated lights. A slightly heavier footsteps can turn on the voice-activated lights. Shannan put the phone behind his back, thought about it, and put it in his pocket. The recording was the same.
Li Qidong should have gone back to his room. In order to facilitate taking care of Zhai Qingyu, the housekeeper and Li Qidong's rooms were arranged on the same floor as Zhai Qingyu.
Shang Nan knocked on the door of Zhai Qingyu's room.
After waiting for a while, I heard the person inside say: "Please come in."
Zhai Qingyu hasn't slept yet, but not all the lights in the room are on. Only the bedside lamps on the left and right sides of the bed are on. Zhai Qingyu is leaning on the bedside, holding a book in a minority language in his hand.
His hair had been combed during the day, and he looked more energetic and cheerful. When he was about to rest, he let it all down, and it fell naturally and loosely on his forehead, becoming more gentle and gloomy, like being hit by the rain on a rainy day.The dying bouquet has fallen petals at its roots.
But that kind of gloom is like the gradually deepening haze and coolness before a heavy rain. The huge black hole formed among the green trees seems to be able to swallow up all those who peek outside.
Shannan walked into Zhai Qingyu's room naturally. He didn't find anything like a stool in Zhai Qingyu's room, so he could only walk to the bedside and sit on the floor. He also saw a tall pile of books stacked in the corner.
There is also an oval-shaped object standing next to the wall, with a short layer of burrs on the surface. It is almost as high as the bed and has a diameter about the same as a basketball.
From a decorative standpoint, it's rough.
"What do you want from me?" Zhai Qingyu waved his hand in front of Shan Nan's eyes, "What are you looking at?"
Shan Nan pointed at the fur ball and asked, "What is this?"
Zhai Qingyu glanced at the thing pointed to by Shang Nan and said, "The pupa will hatch into a butterfly."
"This... such a big pupa?" Shang Nan wanted to reach out and touch it, but he resisted. Zhai Qingyu's things were not something you could just reach out and touch.
"Well, this kind of large pupa is indeed rare, so the process of hatching is also very long." Zhai Qingyu glanced at the pupa again, his eyes calm.
Then there is nothing to be curious about. After all, Zhai Qingyu himself is a butterfly, so it is normal to collect such things, but this size is a bit too big.
Shang Nan no longer paid attention to the chrysalis. He touched the tip of his nose and his expression became uncomfortable. In order to show his sincerity and sincerity, he deliberately moved forward, resting his chin on the bed, raising the corners of his mouth slightly, and raising his eyes.The light is stored in it, so it is shiny and looks like a kitten.
"Brother Qingyu, can I sleep with you tonight?"
