"Where is that?" Zhang Bo and others immediately ran up to Xiao Xiao, stretched their necks, opened their eyes wide, and almost put their heads into the water. They looked left and right, but found nothing.
"Lao San, are you kidding me?"
"That's right, where did the fish come from? I didn't even see any shrimp fry."
"Third brother, did you see it wrong?"
"No, there are a lot of fish here and there, aren't there?" Xiao Xiao subconsciously retorted, the water in this lake is clear, the dark bottom is looming, and black shadows are clearly visible.
Isn't this just a fish?
Xiao Xiao took a few steps forward and took a closer look.
"Aren't there so many...carps?" The voice became softer and softer, and Xiao Xiao couldn't help but rub his eyes with his hands.
At this time, a faint light shone into the lake, and the black shadow gradually appeared.
The body is spindle-shaped, with a lower mouth and a pair of rostrum and jaw barbels. The gill rakers are short and the abdomen is round. The scales are large and round. The lateral line is obvious and slightly curved. The caudal fin is deeply forked. The color is rare vermilion and shimmering.
The sparkling light actually made him a little dizzy.
Xiao Xiao closed his eyes hard and opened them again. Yes, it was still there.
At first glance, these fish are no different from red carps, but, Kouhushi, whose red carp has a bird’s tail and six legs?!
Xiao Xiao was a little confused. Could it be that he was ignorant and knew that there was actually such a fish?
However, Xiao Xiao turned to look at the other three people: "Is there really no fish here?"
"Yes, third child, what's wrong with you?"
"Lao San, you'd better take a rest."
"Third brother, come on, sit here for a while."
Xiao Xiao turned a deaf ear and stared at the fish in the lake, but suddenly he bumped into the eyes of one of the fishes. They were smart and even a bit cunning, completely unlike a fish's eyes, and that wide grinning mouth.
, are you laughing?
"Giggle."
It was like a sound ringing in the ears, hitting the eardrum, as tender as a baby, but extremely weird.
Is this... laughter? Xiao Xiao subconsciously took a big step back.
All this was so weird that he couldn't help but take a breath.
Xiao Xiao quickly looked away, then stretched out his hand to rub his ears, his face was a little pale, and he stayed away from the lake under the repeated inquiries and concerned and worried eyes of Zhang Bo and others.
Looking back, the clear water that was originally quiet and peaceful became eerie and strange for no reason.
Half bright, half obscure, a grinning fish suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Xiao's eyes, and he felt excited all over.
...
Under Xiao Xiao's urging, they quickly left the lake.
Then, perhaps as luck would have it, they quickly found their way out and met other tourists.
"Haha, I just said, follow me, you're right, isn't it coming out now?" Zhang Bo was quite proud.
"I'm sorry to say, who was so nervous before?"
"That's right, brother, I'm lucky this time, next time..."
Xiao Xiao fell at the end, still a little dazed.
He didn't understand, were those fish his hallucination? Or were they real?
If it was an illusion, the weird laughter still seemed to be echoing in his ears, making him uneasy; if it was real, why couldn't Big Brother and the others see it?
"Third brother, why are you bothering?"
"coming."
Forget it, Xiao Xiao shook his head. Since he couldn't figure it out, don't think about it. He was leaving now anyway. He felt that he would never go there again.
…
"Gee, some humans have seen us."
"Really, he seems to be scared by us, geez."
"It's true, haha, it's been a long time since I met someone who can see us."
…
The next few days of travel went smoothly. Zhang Bo took them to climb the mountains around Zichuan.
Although Xiao Xiao, Zhuge Yun, and Zhao Luzheng complained endlessly, Zhang Bo said plausibly: On such a hot day, we should go to the mountains to enjoy the coolness. He also despised the three of them for their weak bodies and the corresponding
His physical strength was unbelievable, and he was determined to help them exercise.
Finally, he asked in a very obscene manner: Aren’t you guys good at it?
Xiao Xiao and others were speechless in response to this.
Yes, now it’s okay even if it’s not possible. A man’s face cannot be lost!
However, you have to live and die to save face.
When they finally returned to school, they were all lying on the bed pretending to be dead bodies, unable to move.
Their backs and waists were really sore. Even if they faced Zhang Bo's cynicism, they didn't have the energy to deal with it.
…
Xiao Xiao twisted his body. Even though several days had passed, there was still some soreness lingering in his limbs, which was unpleasant.
Just as he moved his body slightly, his eyes inadvertently glanced at a place and he suddenly stopped.
What's this?
Because the speed was too fast, he could only see a long tail, which quickly disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
But no matter what this is, it is incredible to appear in a university teaching building.
And... He looked up and looked around. There were people coming and going in the corridor, and there was a lot of noise, but they all looked normal. It seemed that no one had noticed a strange creature running past them just now.
Xiao Xiao felt that his heartbeat was a little fast and he had a headache. Is this another hallucination? Or is it only him who can see it?
If it's the latter, to be honest, he doesn't like this peculiarity at all.
Forget it, I didn't see it, he didn't see anything, he deceived himself while taking a deep breath.
But I am already thinking about whether I should find time to go to the temple to worship and see if I have any dirt on myself?
At this time, Xiao Xiao didn't pay too much attention. After all, it was just a small abnormality. It neither posed a threat to his life safety nor had any impact on his life. He just regarded it as an illusion between light and shadow.
Xiao Xiao happily put these abnormalities behind him.
But he never thought that his future life would have gone a long way without him realizing it, and these anomalies, whether he wanted it or not, had become the main theme of his future life.
And one day, he will be able to calmly ignore these strange creatures.
…
Originally, Xiao Xiao had almost forgotten about the unknown creature with a long tail, but when he was looking for books in the library that day, through the gap between the books and the bookshelf, he caught the flash of it again unexpectedly.
figure.
Xiao Xiao was stunned, but he chased after him without thinking.
The eighth floor of the library is the second stack of social sciences, and there are usually not many people there.
It's almost noon now, and it's even quieter. You can clearly hear the "pap-pap-pap-pap" sound of sneakers scraping against the ground.
Xiao Xiao only had that tail in his eyes, following the strange creature around the bookshelves.
It was obvious that the opponent was running very fast, but every time Xiao Xiao felt that he had lost track of the opponent and wanted to give up, a little bit of his tail would appear from somewhere and he would flick it around. I have to say, it was really infuriating.
It's just a joke!
Panting heavily, Xiao Xiao stared at the tail, already thinking about the top ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty.
Finally, Xiao Xiao blocked the opponent in a triangular area. The dim light and flying dust made Xiao Xiao unable to see the figure in front of him clearly.
In the small space, Xiao Xiao's breathing sound was rapid and distinct, and also revealed a touch of careful restraint.
Xiao Xiao was a little proud.
So what, he still caught up with me, right?
But he gradually froze under the increasingly clear vision.
What's this?
It looks like a mouse, but it has the head of a rabbit and the body of an elk.
The vertical pupils of the beast are the same red as the rabbit, but unlike the docility of the rabbit, these beast pupils are not only cold, but also reveal an extremely human arrogance and contempt.
His small body exudes powerful power.
Xiao Xiao looked at those vertical pupils, the magnificent red reflected a blurred luster, giving it a bloody beauty.
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
Just when he was feeling dizzy and dazed, he suddenly felt a sharp and howling wind. His ears rang for a moment, his cheeks also felt pain, and something sticky slowly flowed out. He hurriedly stretched out his hand to touch it, and scarlet red entered his eyes.
It was really bleeding.
"Crash", the sound of books falling was heard one after another. When I looked back, I saw that there was an empty space on the bookshelf in front of me, and there were messy and scattered books on the ground under the gap.
Looking through the empty space on the bookshelf, there is nothing. It all seems like a dream.
