After leaving the Dark Moon Chamber of Commerce, Lu Yu took the little hamster directly to the largest supermarket nearby.
"Is the human supermarket so beautiful?"
The little hamster's eyes widened, his ears stood up with excitement, and his mouth opened wide, looking around curiously like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
When it was hungry before, it could only go to a small convenience store to steal some snacks. Every time it would run away with its tail between its legs, for fear of being caught, beaten to death or eaten, and it had no time to look around.
This was the first time it walked openly into such a huge and luxurious supermarket. The dazzling array of products were placed on the tall shelves, making it stunned for a moment.
After communicating with the cashier, Lu Yu brought a disposable QR code pass card sticker and stuck it on Shushu, who was still in a daze. He flicked his forehead with his fingers, making Shushu subconsciously cover his head.
Before he could get angry, Shushu saw Lu Yu hand over a basket for children and said with a smile:
"Go in, choose whatever you like, no need to be polite to me!"
"Can...can you really choose whatever you want?"
Although it had been agreed upon long ago, when it came time to implement it, Shuashu still couldn't believe it.
"certainly!"
After getting an affirmative answer, Shushu dragged the basket that was huge to him forward with some excitement. When he passed by two detection dogs that were detecting spiritual life, his hair tensed subconsciously and his heart began to beat faster.
The two sniffing dogs glanced lazily, saw the traffic sticker on Shushu, and retracted their gaze without stopping it.
At this moment, Shushu suddenly felt like he had become a part of human civilization. He could live in the sun and be respected.
However, as soon as he took a step, a red light suddenly swept over him, making his body stiffen. Some bad memories came to his mind, and he subconsciously wanted to escape into the shadows, but when he turned around, he saw Lu Yu smiling and nodding to it.
"We can't let perverted cultivators look down upon us!"
His gaze gave Shushu a sudden courage. He held his head high and the machine scanned the access card. After a beep, the red light receded.
"Hmph, this red-eyed iron monster is nothing more than that!"
Shushu breathed a sigh of relief, and then successfully entered the snack area and began to wander around happily, picking out what he liked.
Lu Yu thought it would take a long time to choose, but five minutes later, Shushu came back dragging a basket containing ten packets of tomato-flavored potato chips and a dozen caramel puddings.
Lu Yu thought that Shushu didn't understand the prices of these, and reminded him: "You can choose more. It only costs a few dozen yuan here, and the budget I gave you is also 20,000."
"Hmph, I ask you to tell me, but if you choose too much, you won't be able to finish it. If it expires, it will be a waste of food!" Shushu turned his head and said angrily: "And perverted cultivator, do you look down on me? , I can change snacks this time, and I can do better next time and change more snacks!”
Although the little hamster tried its best to hide his emotions, Lu Yu still saw the hope and desire in its eyes. It was like an abandoned kitten that would gain the love of its owner by being careful and well-behaved.
Lu Yu was silent, and the image of a little hamster alone in a dangerous abandoned city inhabited by countless monsters suddenly appeared in his mind.
The situation was precarious, shivering for countless nights, in the soul-destroying demonic cloud cutting into the soul, because of the fear of being discovered, even if it hurt to the point of rolling, I could only grit my teeth and hold back, not daring to make a sound.
Even if the soul can be repaired afterwards, the process is painful and long.
But having wisdom and thinking only intensifies this pain.
Because I have experienced the beauty of human civilization, I feel lonelier in comparison. I will deliberately imitate the human living environment and steal human food... These processes, in addition to filling my stomach, are more just to make myself feel a little more. Sense of presence.
However, it never gave up and worked hard to find the meaning of its existence!
All the ferocity is just to cover up his inner fragility.
And Lu Yu,
He was the first person to tell Shushu that he needed it.
Let it see the dawn of hope!
Even if it may be a trap, even if it is just used as a tool, after thinking about it, it steps into it resolutely.
After Lu Yu fulfilled his promise, he didn't have to buy a lot. Instead, he chose the part he needed.
Because it feels that it is only worth this!
It's not that you look down on yourself, but that you feel contented after your trust has not been betrayed.
Lu Yu suddenly thought that in his previous life, and even most people, were they not rats in life?
I have read many books, walked many roads, and learned to think. After being hit, I will still be confused and at a loss. I don’t know what role the past knowledge will play in my future, and whether I will always achieve nothing in the future. He may be unknown, or even have nothing, he may die in obscurity, or he may live inexplicably, but these...
None of it matters!
We are just dust in the universe, water droplets in the long river of time. We boldly do what we want to do and understand what kind of person we want to be. The wealth, fame, and the eyes of others in the process are all vain. Life should not be a blank piece of paper, a piece of paper scrawled with wine, sex, wealth, and fame and fortune.
If your heart is like the morning sun, everything you see will be like the morning glow.
If you miss the sunset, there will still be stars in the sky.
Such a rat should not be despised and ridiculed!
Lu Yu put away his smile, knelt down and touched its head, and praised seriously: "Yes, Shushu is the most powerful!"
"Humph, you have a good vision." The little hamster was very happy after being praised. The corners of his mouth subconsciously raised, but he quickly pretended to be calm and pointed:
"These are nothing, think about when I used to run rampant in convenience stores..."
Lu Yu put it on his shoulder and while queuing up to check out, he quietly listened to it telling about its glorious past experiences without speaking, just as a quiet listener.
I heard Shushu talk about how after three days of wandering, when he was about to starve to death, he ended up picking up half a pack of discarded tomato-flavored potato chips. After eating, he was very happy.
It was a delicacy countless times more delicious than hamster food.
I heard him say why he bought caramel pudding. It was on his first birthday last month. He found pudding after failing to find potato chips in the convenience store he frequented. As a result, the pudding was too heavy and he was almost caught by the store clerk. He was hit with a broom stick and almost lost his life, but in the end, he escaped through his unskilled shadow ability.
But on that birthday, the sweet pudding made Shushu very happy. He liked the taste very much.
Speaking of birthdays, the little hamster thought of his mother, lowered his head, and his bright eyes dimmed a bit.
It's not that I miss you too much, but because...
forget!
Forgot what my mother looked like...
Before it became an extraordinary creature, its brain capacity was only enough to hold what happened for more than half a year.
And it was bought by a little human girl after it was full moon, and it has been living with her, watching anime and TV with her, and learning a lot of knowledge about the human world. That was also its happiest time.
In the end, she got tired of playing with the hamster and no longer wanted to keep it. On the day it was about to be thrown away, it secretly opened the cage and ran into the sewer. It secretly ate the blood of its relatives and transformed into an extraordinary life. So far, it has been wandering for three times. moon.
But I have imagined many nights that my mother should have a very warm embrace.
Thinking of this, the little hamster looked at the checkout and paid, wanting to hear his opinion, comfort or praise. However, Lu Yu said nothing and ignored him until he walked out of the supermarket.
"Heartless humans!"
The little hamster was very unhappy when he didn't get a response. He felt that the perverted cultivator didn't respect him at all. He got angry and got into his pocket, huddled up and didn't want to speak.
Unless the perverted cultivator buys him three more bags... no, two bags of potato chips will do, and he praises him five times, it will forgive him!
"Did I say something wrong..."
After waiting for a long time, Shushu didn't wait for Lu Yu to find him. He tossed and turned and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He didn't know if it was because he was too noisy and made the perverted cultivator hate him.
It regrets a little, regrets why it likes to talk nonsense so much.
It longs for love, but is extremely sensitive and has low self-esteem. Perhaps all its courage has been spent on the journey of searching.
Click!
Just when Shushu was thinking wildly, the familiar sound of the electric door rang. He thought he had arrived at the perverted cultivator's home, and stuck his head out to prepare for Lu Yu to step down, but what he saw was a familiar scene.
"This is... the convenience store I often come to. What are you doing here? Could it be that you can't stand the bragging of Shushu and are planning to hand me over to them?"
Before Shushu could react, he saw Lu Yu walking up to the cashier, nodded his head and said:
"I'm sorry. When my mouse ran out before, he stole a lot of things and caused you trouble. Please tell me how many items were lost before. I am willing to pay three times the compensation."
After the words fell, Shushu, who was about to run away, was stunned. He raised his head and looked at Lu Yu's side face. His dark eyes suddenly surged with unspeakable emotions.
"Ah... I'm sorry, I've only been working for a few days, so I'm not sure. I'll call the store manager and he'll come over quickly..."
The cashier was a young girl. She blushed instantly when she saw Lu Yu's charismatic appearance. She was a little flustered for a moment and couldn't figure out what was going on. She stammered and called the store manager.
After the store manager found out what happened and found out that it was the little mouse that had been stealing snacks, although he was a little surprised, he was not aggressive and said that he couldn't remember how much it cost, so he could just pay 300 yuan in compensation.
Lu Yu nodded, left one thousand yuan, and then went to a convenience store that House Shushu had been to, losing a total of more than three thousand yuan.
Although the total value of everything may only be a few hundred, he feels it is very meaningful.
After everything was settled, it was already eight o'clock. Lu Yu was walking on the path home carrying a bag of snacks.
During the whole process, Shushu didn't say a word, just looking at his side face eagerly, as if he wanted to remember it forever.
He will tolerate himself, treat himself as a family member, apologize for the wrong things he has done, and lead himself out of the darkness of the past...
I don't know when it started, but Lu Yu's figure gradually overlapped with the warm embrace imagined in his mind.
Its wait seems to have really paid off!
Lu Yu touched Shushu's head and felt everything was gone.
"Woohoo, you are a perverted person, who wants you to do this, waste more money, in the future ... the mouse will return it to you in the future ..."
Shushu retracted into his pocket, his body twitching. Although he tried his best to hide his tears with arrogance, he could still feel his attachment.
Lu Yu smiled, and the last barrier between him and Shushu was gone.
What they didn't notice was that a figure stood on the white tower, watching him quietly, or in other words, watching everything in the city, aloof and calm, out of tune with everything around him, as if he didn't belong to this era.
After soothing the little hamster, Lu Yu said to the little spider in his pocket, which was eating dream fragments to replenish his strength:
"Thanks for your hard work!"
One kilogram of spider silk is not very strenuous, but it is not easy either.
"嘤嘤!"
The little spider shook his head seriously, saying that it was not hard at all. The corners of his mouth raised, and a smile appeared on his delicate face, like a flower in bloom, which was touching.
In its opinion, it is a very happy thing to be able to spin silk to make money to support the family and help its owner reduce stress.
In its void treasure chest, there was also a second rat doll made of spider silk.
A family, stay together forever!
At this moment, the dim light of the street lights blurred the vision, and the gentle and cool evening breeze caressed the cheeks, bringing a touch of tranquility and tenderness.
Lu Yu looked up at the stars in the sky, stretched out his hand to hold it, as if he had grasped something, and said seriously:
"From now on, we will blow the evening breeze every day and go see the scenery above the stars together. No one will be left behind along the way!"
"Hey!"
⸜(๑'ᵕ'๑)⸝⋆*
Little Spider raises his hand, he will work hard!
Silhouette Rat came back to his senses and said proudly:
"squeak!"
Don’t underestimate Shushu, it’s you who have to work hard!
A simple promise contains beautiful expectations.
Lu Yu was very happy. He had an extra family member, a little more excitement, and...an extra responsibility!
Next, it’s time to make the secret skill food...
