Since arriving "here", the orange cat has been acting like an ordinary cat.
It's just that Zheng Xiu had doubts from the beginning that it wouldn't be such a coincidence.
The world is so big and the sky is so far away. The orange cat can't go anywhere, but it just appears in front of him.
So Zheng Xiu went through the process again and got the same orange cat.
Speaking of which, when Zheng Xiu inadvertently tried to remember the orange cat's "last owner", he also felt the same sense of violation, which was stronger than other places. Perhaps it was because of the direct relationship between the orange cat and Feng Bei that the relationship between "the origin of the orange cat" after "Feng Bei's disappearance" was re-constructed by the interference of some force, making Zheng Xiu aware of the relationship. Strange.
When the orange cat spoke human words, Zheng Xiu was surprised. The first question he asked was "Who are you?"
Although the orange cat's expression at this moment was not much different from before, with his eyes hiding three parts of cuteness, three parts of aloofness, three parts of laziness, and one part of undisguised arrogance and contempt, Zheng Xiu was still the first to I realized that the orange cat that was "talking" at this moment was not the same orange cat from before - at least, it didn't have the same personality.
He even suspected that if he threw a fish cake at the orange cat at this moment, it would slap it away with its paws disdainfully, and then sneer: Stupid humans.
"It doesn't matter who I am." The corners of the orange cat's furry mouth tilted to both sides, showing an expression like a "smile": "The container named 'Fengbei' no longer exists."
"impossible!"
Zheng Xiu raised his eyebrows and shook his head in denial.
"Tsk!" The orange cat's sneering expression was indeed as Zheng Xiu imagined, arrogant and full of disdain: "Stupid container."
There are some subtle differences. Instead of calling Zheng Xiu "stupid human being", including Feng Bei, it uses a very strange name - "container". This strange title made Zheng Xiu think twice. But he didn't ask any more questions at the moment. He was eager to get more information about Feng Bei from Orange Cat.
The orange cat jumped down from the window sill and walked slowly on the ground. As it walked, it looked at its paws with a "disgusted" look on its face. It seems that even walking on this dirty ground is a kind of "blasphemy" to its identity, its body, and its existence.
"I am not advising you, I am discussing with you. Now that I appear in front of you, you should be grateful, shed tears of gratitude, accept my warning, take this matter deeply into your heart, and implement it meticulously."
The orange cat stood on tiptoes and lowered his head. At this time, its mouth did not move, but the cold voice entered Zheng Xiu's mind.
Zheng Xiu clenched his fist, and in his fist, he gently rubbed his little finger, which was wrapped around the texture of "reason". He quickly calmed down and looked at the orange cat close at hand: "You have to tell me why."
The orange cat tilted his head, and there was a bit of doubt in his voice: "Is the 'answer' important to you?"
"..."
"If I tell you that the moment you learn the 'answer', you will die because of it, and you will also disappear without a trace. Then, do you still want to know the thing called the 'answer'?"
"..."
The orange cat raised a paw and stared directly at Zheng Xiu with its furry face. There was a bit of sarcasm in its voice: "So, the 'answer' is already there. The 'answer' you think is very important is actually Worthless."
Zheng Xiu smiled, lightly, like a wisp of wind.
"So, if you tell me the answer, I will die?"
The orange cat thought for a while and shook his head: "No."
Damn me.
Zheng Xiu stumbled, and his fist almost accidentally landed on the orange cat's face.
"Forget it, it doesn't matter if I tell you." The orange cat took another step closer: "The 'reason' between her and this place was cut off by herself."
"Reason" was cut off?
Zheng Xiu was surprised when he heard this. This word appeared in his mind not long ago like an epiphany. Now that it was said from Orange Cat's mouth, Zheng Xiu always felt weird.
"Is it weird? A container with fish lips." The orange cat laughed at Zheng Xiu again. It seemed to see through Zheng Xiu's mind: "Everything you can see, understand, and feel is made of Made up of principles."
"When you are aware of the existence of 'reason', you also know it."
"But for you, there is not much difference between knowing or not knowing. Many people have wanted to give different definitions to 'reason', such as human principles, natural principles, axioms, principles, ethics, physics, mathematics, Qi principles... …”
"Nouns" with different painting styles came out from the orange cat's mouth one by one. The more Zheng Xiu listened, the weirder his expression became.
The orange cat continued:
"But 'these' they gave us are just a drop in the ocean of 'reason', the tip of the iceberg."
Zheng Xiu suddenly frowned. He didn't understand the connection between what Orange Cat said and "Feng Bei's whereabouts."
The orange cat sighed and began to scold again: "Stupid container." It tilted its head, as if thinking. After a while, the orange cat said again: "To put it simply, it is 'contact'."
"Huh? How do you say it?" After hearing "in simple terms", Zheng Xiu became more energetic and sat obediently like a primary school student, listening to Teacher Mao's lecture.
"You stand on the ground, and the ground supports you, which is a kind of 'reason'; you blow the wind and breathe the air, which is also a kind of 'reason'; you will feel pain due to cold, and you will also feel pain due to heat. And sweating profusely, this is also a kind of "reason"; you can cry, laugh, talk, get married, have children, and miss your parents, these are also "reasons"; Yue Linglong, you and she are husband and wife, this It's 'reason'; Qing Shisan, you and he are close friends, this is also 'reason'. Your connection with 'here' is nothing more than relying on every trace of 'reason', and you have many connections with 'here' ', so that you can stand here, breathing, and living."
Zheng Xiu understood, but the moment he understood, a chill crept up his back, like a slippery snake slithering through Zheng Xiu's clothes. There was an imperceptible tremor in Zheng Xiu's calm voice: "You mean, Feng Bei's 'reason' has been cut off? What will happen if it is cut off?"
"It's not 'cut off', but 'she was cut off'." The orange cat raised another paw, its pink flesh ball facing Zheng Xiu. It seriously corrected Zheng Xiu's words: "As for what will happen if you ask …”
Zheng Xiu's breath stopped and he listened quietly.
This time the orange cat told Zheng Xiu neatly: "Cutting off the 'reason' with 'here' is equivalent to completely severing all connections between the container named 'Fengbei' and this place."
"You can interpret it in many ways."
"Ascension, detachment, breakthrough, promotion..." The orange cat's tone at this moment was so cold that it frightened Zheng Xiu. It paused: "Or, death, annihilation, obliteration, elimination."
Under the long sleeves, Zheng Xiu subconsciously crossed his little finger.
"So, where did she go?"
What I said above means I didn’t say it.
Can the previous words and the following words be put together to compare?
Being uneducated is terrible.
"Ascension, transcendence, breakthrough, promotion, death..."
The orange cat said what he just said again, its two vertical pupils flashing with cold light: "This is...'the answer'."
"I understand." Zheng Xiu quietly ticked his little finger again, took a deep breath, and nodded: "I understand."
"Huh?" The orange cat tilted his head and glanced at Zheng Xiu.
"Then I still have questions." Zheng Xiu raised two fingers to indicate that this was the "second one" and said, "Who are you?"
"You don't want to know. With your current status, you can't understand the existence of 'me'." The orange cat yawned.
Zheng Xiu looked at the orange cat with a firm gaze: "What if I said, this is also the 'answer' I want to know? I think this matter is very important."
"More important than 'Fengbei'?"
The orange cat asked a strange question.
Zheng Xiu was puzzled, thought for a while, and nodded.
"good."
A playful smile suddenly appeared on the orange cat's face.
"Since you want to..."
"That's it,"
"Die."
The orange cat stretched out its paws happily.
bass.
In an instant, the situation in front of Zheng Xiu changed drastically. All the sounds in his ears disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, in a blink of an eye, he came to a vast expanse of void.
There was no sky, no earth, no light, and the surrounding area was filled with a thick gray and red fog.
The mist is like the sea, floating and sinking.
A foot as white and delicate as a girl broke through the clouds and stepped down towards Zheng Xiu.
Zheng Xiu looked up and found that he was naked and suspended in this strange space. He looked at the feet stepping out of the clouds, his mouth wide open, and his eyes were about to burst.
That foot was as clean as jade, pure white and flawless, stepping towards Zheng Xiu. This seems to be a happy event.
The premise is that... this jade foot is not that big.
The huge jade foot was like a huge planet. Zheng Xiu wanted to take in the outline of the entire foot, but was horrified to find that this was an impossible task. As the huge jade feet pressed down little by little, Zheng Xiu could even clearly see the "texture" of the soles of the feet.
The "texture" that looks like "fingerprints" is actually composed of twisted and pale "corpses". They were squeezed and twisted on it. There were no facial features on the ferocious faces, due to the terrible squeezing force. Only some twisted hollows remain.
one thousand?
Ten thousand?
One hundred thousand?
million?
Ten million?
hundreds of millions?
Numbers kept popping up in Zheng Xiu's mind, and he could no longer estimate how many resentful souls were lying under that foot. There was a faint cry like a tsunami in his ears. Billions of heart-rending sounds were roughly twisted together and passed by Zheng Xiu's ears in the blink of an eye. The ultimate silence was followed by a sharp whistle. Zheng Xiu's head was instantly washed away and he lost the ability to think. He went blank and looked at the jade foot that was pressing down on him.
In front of that terrible foot, he was like an ant, like a grain of dust, like a drop of dew, like a cell, too insignificant to be worth mentioning. Zheng Xiu, who had lost his ability to think, kept flashing one word in his mind - "death".
He will die!
He will die!
He will die!
Zheng Xiu opened his mouth wide, trying hard to say something, shouting words such as "Help", "No", "Stop", etc. The terrible feeling of death came over him. He had a premonition that soon he would become the one under his feet, among the hundreds of millions of people. Among all the textures, it is the most inconspicuous one.
Close!
Close!
Close!
That foot had become a patch of sky, and Zheng Xiu's eyes were filled with white flowers.
For the first time, he experienced the fear of "big and white".
"Boo~"
The soft flesh between the orange cat's paws pressed against Zheng Xiu's forehead, making a strange sound.
Zheng Xiu's feet were empty, his vision blurred, and everything around him was silent. The next second, he saw his butt and his back.
"This is……"
The terrifying scene just now was like an illusion. Zheng Xiu was immersed in it and experienced the "Jade Foot Hell". In a blink of an eye, the illusion disappeared. He was slapped on the forehead by the orange cat's paw and saw "himself".
The scene changed so quickly that it took Zheng Xiu a while for him to react.
He was floating in mid-air, as if he had lost gravity.
Looking down, I saw that "I" was dripping with sweat at some point, and my hair was wet. The long hair on my forehead was stained by sweat and became bunches, sticking unsightly to my face.
The door of the inn opened a gap, revealing Qing Shisan's hand.
Everything was still.
"This is...my human soul?"
Zheng Xiu quickly understood his situation.
This is not the first time he has used an avatar to travel around.
But this time it was a little different. He was slapped out of his soul by the orange cat.
The passage of time became very slow. The door of the inn was not completely still when it was opened, but was pushed inward little by little. But this speed is extremely slow, as if it would take several years to open the door.
"Sure enough, you are special."
The orange cat floated in front of Zheng Xiu at some point, staring at Zheng Xiu's small breasts and blinking.
Zheng Xiu followed the orange cat's gaze and looked towards his chest. He was surprised to find that his translucent human soul chest was lit with flames of three different colors.
Three kinds?
Zheng Xiu suddenly felt that this number was wrong. There were indeed three types of red, yellow and green.
The orange cat touched his chin with his paw and nodded vigorously: "Your 'xiang' is gone."
The human soul is divided into four parts: intention, shape, direction, and luck.
After a moment, the orange cat clapped its paws and suddenly realized: "I see, no wonder you are 'imprisoned'. Without 'direction', naturally you can't go anywhere."
The orange cat asked and answered its own questions, which made Zheng Xiu stunned for a while, but it seemed that it had no intention of explaining this matter to Zheng Xiu, and pointed to the door: "It is more convenient to talk this way."
It licked its paws and raised the corners of its mouth: "Now, do you understand the difference between you and me? My name, my existence, my form, my words, even if you understand a little bit more, you will understand Make you collapse and die, completely die."
"So, now, your life is mine."
The orange cat stepped on Zheng Xiu's head in front of Zheng Xiu. It used Zheng Xiu's head as a stool, rubbed it with its butt, and moved it to find a comfortable position.
It arrogantly declared that Zheng Xiu's life now belonged to it.
Zheng Xiu's human soul suddenly showed a subtle expression: ==_=?
There was silence for a while.
"Can I boldly translate your words?"
"Let's put aside Feng Bei's whereabouts for now."
"Since you are so awesome, but you can't show up until now, there must be some kind of opportunity."
"You can crush me to death as easily as crushing an ant to death. With such a great, arrogant, immortal, and indescribable existence, you actually waste so many words just to keep me quiet. Here, I’ll do something for you.”
"Even though you could kill me easily, you let me go."
"Does it mean that you actually... want something from me?"
Zheng Xiu carefully said "foreign language translation": "Are we actually a cooperative relationship?"
Orange cat: "..."
Its expression suddenly became dull.
After a while, the orange cat put on a cute pose above Zheng Xiu's head: "Meow?"
grass! Just disappear after being seen through?
A strong suction force came from behind his anus.
Zheng Xiu's face was distorted and he was sucked back into his body.
Whoosh!
"Master, what's wrong? We outside heard you yelling inside... Huh? Why did Brother Dao fall down? Are you drunk now?"
Qing Shisan and Yue Linglong pushed open the door and entered. At this moment, the illusion in the sky had long disappeared.
Qing Shisan heard the shouting in the house, sometimes panting and sometimes hysterical. He felt worried and went inside to take a peek.
As soon as he entered the door, Qing Shisan saw an orange cat squatting quietly on Zheng Xiu's head. Zheng Xiu was soaked. There was a big man lying next to him, and the table was covered with yellow-brown powder.
This scene made Qing Shisan think of many possibilities involuntarily.
"I'm fine, I'm tired."
Zheng Xiu didn't even want to find an excuse. He just said he was tired and went back to the room with the little female orange cat in his arms.
On the way.
Zheng Xiu raised the orange cat high above his head and looked at the orange cat that had returned to its cute state. Zheng Xiu was angry, funny, and a little scared at the same time.
"Big boss, big boss, she-cats, she-cats, little phoenix cats, little phoenix cats, little phoenix cats, now that you have shown up for a showdown, just say what you have to say! How can we negotiate and negotiate without talking? At the very least, you You have to give me a password, a pseudonym or something, so that it will be easier for me to find you! Otherwise, this orange cat will have its menstrual period one day and go out to find her husband. Should I watch helplessly, or should I step forward to help? How do I know? Does the orange cat want it or you don’t want it..."
Zheng Xiu was talking nonstop, as if talking to himself, and the orange cat suddenly rolled his eyes.
A name appeared in Zheng Xiu's mind, it was the one with a lazy and unquestionable tone.
"Annie."
