After Xiaoya's mother came back, she started cooking on her mobile phone and called Amu over to play with Amu.
At Xiaoya's house, her father is not at home on weekdays and sometimes on weekends, and Xiaoya only comes back from school in the evening for dinner.
Xiaoya's mother would take Amu out for a walk from time to time, or play mahjong, or play with her mobile phone.
Amu told me all this. And I started to pretend to be dead. Xiaoya’s mother was at home, and I didn’t dare to think about the things in the utility room. I had to leave it next time.
I started communicating with Xiaobai.
"I know you can understand what I'm saying, but I can't hear you, so now, I'm going to ask you questions. You just need to say yes or no. If yes, swim to the left. If no, swim to the right.
If it’s hard to answer, just stay put. If it’s complicated, just go in circles. If you don’t know, just go in reverse.
Don't even think about fooling me. I know you must be unhappy after scolding me so much, but who can I turn to to explain my unhappiness?
Regardless of my communication with Sister Snake, Dahuang, Xiaohua, or Amu, you all watched and knew that I was sincere.
I still say the same thing, since you are living in my turtle shell, you must have a purpose. My idea is also very simple. If we are sincere to each other, then we can help each other. If this continues, no one will pay attention to the other.
Then I will not do anything that I feel is beneficial to you.
Understand?"
I conveyed so much in one breath, and Xiaobai immediately fell into thinking.
It's exactly as I thought. Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai's brain is very easy to use. It can even be said to be better than human's.
After becoming a turtle, I discovered a very interesting thing. It is very simple to communicate with small animals.
If I have enough to eat and drink, I will be kind to whoever is kind to me.
Of course, natural selection, survival of the fittest and the law of the jungle are indispensable.
In other words, it is the way of thinking of a single cell.
"First question, why did I turn into a turtle?"
Xiaobai turned around in the opposite direction, which was expected.
"Can I become a human?" When I asked this question, I felt anxious inside.
After getting the answer, my heart skipped a beat...as if the five-flavor bottle had been knocked over, and I quickly suppressed my emotions.
But I can't express it. Each has its own weaknesses. They have both, and I also have them. They are all ways of coercing each other.
"Why do you live in my turtle shell?" After hearing my question, Xiaobai hesitated for a long time, but finally gave me the answer.
Consciousness is explainable, and it is very complicated to explain.
"So what do I want to do?" I continued.
Xiaobai did not follow what I said this time, but quickly swam an arrow towards the gas I felt.
"Do you mean those gases? Can I understand them as spiritual energy?"
Finally, after asking so many questions, Xiaobai answered so simply for the first time.
"Also, are we a form of coexistence?"
After asking this question, Xiao Bai was about to answer, but the charming Xiao Hei suddenly interrupted. The answer was already in my mind.
Since they coexist, they don't want me to die. In fact, I don't want to die either.
I haven't figured out why I turned into a turtle. There is another reason. I want to go to the deep sea to find Sister Snake.
"You have all met Sister Snake. I want to know, at what point will I be able to find Sister Snake?"
When I conveyed a question, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai suddenly became anxious. They understood the meaning without me answering.
The deep sea is dangerous! Don’t go!
But what? I didn’t care at all. I stared straight at Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai. This time the message was very serious.
"As for me, it's actually very simple. I'll be nice to whoever is nice to me."
"Sister Snake, I will definitely go find her. The more dangerous it is, the more I will go. As long as I don't hurt anyone, I will be happy to get along with you two..."
I have been talking for a long time, and I have got the result I want, so the current situation is very simple. Get stronger and go find Sister Snake.
Xiaoya's mother ate very simply by herself. She soaked a bowl of cereal, soaked some for me, and made a large bowl of dog food for Amu.
Looking at the cereal Xiaoya's mother made for me, I have to say that although she said yesterday that I had many bacteria, was dirty and smelly, she really didn't have anything to say to me.
Well, she is a kind-hearted housewife, just thinking about Xiaoya's health.
Then Xiaoya's mother continued to watch the drama, Amu played with herself, and I hid in the box and pretended to be dead. In fact, I was constantly practicing the breathing method.
I was particularly concerned about the things in the utility room, and obviously this was definitely not an opportunity.
Time passed like this unknowingly. Xiaoya's mother went out in the afternoon. I suppressed my inner thoughts, chatted with Amu for a few words, and waited silently.
Xiaoya's family came back within five minutes. Xiaoya's father brought back roasted chicken and some food.
The family believed in each other and started cooking. After Xiaoya put down her schoolbag, she ran over and took me out to hug me.
"Xiaoya is so dirty, and the turtle smells so bad." Xiaoya's mother's honest voice came immediately.
"Mom, Liuliu is not dirty. I have given him a bath." Xiaoya said with righteousness on her face, holding me who was pretending to be dead with both hands.
What I have to admit is that that moment was really healing.
It's not the dialogue that heals, but the scene.
As the sun sets, Xiaoya's father has just returned from work and is looking at files on the computer in the study. Xiaoya's mother is busy in the kitchen, and Amu is wagging her tail here and there.
For me, a "person" who has lived in the lake for almost two years, an inexplicable feeling came over me.
There was a family camping by the lake before, but in comparison, this scene was more relevant and heartwarming.
Seeing Xiaoya's aggrieved look, Xiaoya's mother also spoke softly, and came over to pick me up.
"Xiaoya, it's not what mom said to you, your most important task now is to study, study hard..."
After saying a few words of sincerity, Xiaoya’s mother asked Xiaoya to go back to the bedroom, and then
He took me to the sink where the dishwater was flowing, picked up the dishwashing liquid and put it directly on my turtle shell.
I was dumbfounded on the spot, but I could only pretend to be dead. Then Xiaoya’s mother took out the steel ball...
欻欻欻……
欻欻欻……
I was hiding in the turtle shell, and even Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were a little unhappy.
Isn't she afraid of me burping?
After finishing it, Xiaoya's mother threw me on the windowsill and started cooking.
I saw Xiaoya opening the door a crack from inside the room and looking at me happily, with a little joy on her face.
The rude behavior of Xiaoya's mother using a steel ball just now was also reflected in that look...
