Chapter 111 Ouroboros Dream is Sick
Xuan Yao opened his eyes, and once he could see the scenery clearly, he realized that he was now trapped in a small space.
He stood up angrily, thinking he had been captured and locked up by the ouroboros.
He had just woken up and had very little strength in his body. His legs gave way, and he stumbled and fell back down.
Upon seeing this, Shao Yanzhe, who had been paying close attention to him, quickly stood up and tried to comfort him.
"Don't move! Your injuries haven't healed yet! Lie down! Lie down now!"
He originally thought the injured black cat would continue to cause trouble. After all, this black cat looked like a stray cat, and its temperament was different from that of Erpang in the neighborhood. It would definitely be a cat like Sangbiao outside.
Now that he's locked in a cage, he'll definitely want to get out and won't give in easily.
Unexpectedly, the black cat, which seemed to exude an aura of menace, stopped trying to stand up after he spoke. Instead, it obediently lay down and turned its head to look at him.
It was only then that Shao Yanzhe realized that the black cat's eyes were heterochromatic, with one eye being gold and the other black.
I don't know if it's because of the angle, but those golden and black heterochromatic eyes look round and cute, and they seem to be excited when they look at him, as if they are seeing a friend they haven't seen in a long time.
He couldn't help but give the black cat a slight smile, feeling inexplicably pleased.
He slowly approached, examining the black cat to make sure the bandages on its body weren't stained with blood before he felt relieved.
He thought for a moment, then whispered to the black cat, "Wait a minute, I'll go find a doctor to take a look at you. You stay here and wait for me to come back, okay?"
"Meow!"
Upon hearing the faint meow from the black cat, Shao Yanzhe got up and left.
"It's out of danger now, and all it needs to do is rest and recover. Do you want to take it home, or do you want to leave it here?"
Shao Yanzhe subconsciously looked at the black cat and met its round, heterochromatic cat eyes, and seemed to see dependence in its eyes.
He had originally intended to suggest leaving him there, but then he changed his mind involuntarily: "I'll take him back."
"Okay, let me tell you about the things to pay attention to!"
Shao Yanzhe listened attentively to the doctor's instructions, took the medicine that needed to be given to the black cat for internal and external use during this period, and then took him home.
Xuan Yao, who was staying obediently in the cat cage, saw the black cat from before in the neighborhood. He turned his head to look at the black cat and silently grinned.
This is my two-legged creature!
Get out!
Unable to understand what he meant, Erpang tilted his head in confusion, then gave up thinking and slowly strolled around the neighborhood.
After closing the door, Shao Yanzhe put the cat cage on the ground and then looked around the house. He realized that there were quite a few things in the house and no empty space for the black cat to live in.
He scratched his head, wondering why he had impulsively brought the black cat back.
However, now that he has brought it back, he needs to heal the black cat's injuries.
After that, it's up to the black cat whether he wants to leave or stay.
After thinking it over, Shao Yanzhe decided to stay in this house for a while until the black cat could run and jump again, and then move back to the other, larger house.
As for the unscientific things he saw in that house, he has no way of knowing whether they were his hallucinations or truly unscientific things that others cannot see.
I've heard that black cats are psychic; if there really are unscientific things in the house, they should be able to see them too.
When that time comes, he will be able to get the accurate answer.
Otherwise, this question would remain on his mind, and he would always feel somewhat uneasy.
At this moment, Shao Yanzhe had no idea that he had no intention of letting the black cat leave. He had already unconsciously come up with a plan to live with the black cat in the future.
"Meow!"
Xuan Yao's meow alerted Shao Yanzhe, who quickly opened the cat cage and let him out.
After Xuan Yao came out, he felt much more comfortable. That small cage was really too cramped. If Shao Yanzhe hadn't insisted on keeping him inside, he would have already broken the cage in half.
After walking around the room, he squatted down in front of Shao Yanzhe.
He opened his mouth and said, "Meow meow meow! Meow meow meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow meow meow meow, meow meow meow meow meow meow!"
"Shao Yanzhe! This is not the real world, this is your dream, wake up!"
He wanted to remind Shao Yanzhe that it would be better if he could wake up immediately, but even if he couldn't, it would make him doubt the reality of this world so that he wouldn't be deceived by that ouroboros.
When he saw the confusion in Shao Yanzhe's eyes, he realized that what he had just wanted to say was a series of meows.
Xuan Yao immediately widened his heterochromatic eyes, stretched out his cat paw to cover his tail, not understanding why he couldn't speak.
Shao Yanzhe quickly realized and said, "Are you hungry? I'll go get you something to eat!"
He quickly poured a small plate of dried fish for Xuan Yao and placed it in front of him.
"You eat it!"
Xuan Yao, who was originally a little anxious, smelled the food and subconsciously moved closer, and started eating without thinking. When he was halfway through eating, he realized that he should wake up the two-legged beast first.
He quickly looked up at Shao Yanzhe and called out again, "Meow meow meow!"
Shao Yanzhe said gently, "What's wrong? Are you still hungry? I'll pour you some more!"
As he spoke, he poured out some more dried small fish.
"Shao Yanzhe! You're in danger right now, do you know that?! Wake up right now!"
Xuan Yao was exasperated; those two-legged beasts were just too unreliable!
But to Shao Yanzhe, what he said sounded like a series of meows, which, combined with his somewhat fierce expression, made him look rather adorably fierce.
"Okay, okay, I got it. Now eat!"
Shao Yanzhe quickly spoke up, and subconsciously reached out to touch the head of the black cat in front of him.
Xuan Yao was somewhat helpless. He and Shao Yanzhe had spent quite a bit of time together, and seeing his current appearance, he knew that Shao Yanzhe was just going through the motions. However, he couldn't speak and had no way to communicate with him, which put him in a difficult position.
So why can't he speak?
He was able to speak before.
Xuan Yao was puzzled.
Could it be the ouroboros that's behind this?
Definitely!
Once he's healed, he'll definitely give that ouroboros a good scratch!
Xuan Yao thought this as he lay sprawled on the soft sofa, having eaten and drunk his fill.
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and Xuan Yao's injuries had almost completely healed.
Shao Yanzhe also plans to go to the hospital again for a follow-up examination to see if his condition has improved.
Xuan Yao lay on the sofa, but his eyes were fixed on Shao Yanzhe. Seeing that Shao Yanzhe had picked up his coat and keys, he knew that he was going out. So he quickly jumped off the sofa and came to Shao Yanzhe's side, as if he wanted to go out with him.
Shao Yanzhe glanced down at him and couldn't help but smile.
Are you coming out with me?
He thought about it and realized that the black cat hadn't been out for a while and must be getting restless, so he didn't stop him.
He originally thought the black cat would disappear after going out, but to his surprise, it stayed close to his feet, as if afraid of losing him.
Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems the black cat has no intention of leaving.
very nice!
After parking his car, Shao Yanzhe went to the hospital alone, leaving the black cat in the car.
But after he left, Xuan Yao jumped out of the half-open window and followed behind him.
"You seem to be much better. Have you seen those things recently?"
"No."
"That's good. In that case, continue taking the medication. The condition may relapse afterward. If you see any strange things, please don't talk to them."
"good."
Xuan Yao, who was peering out the window, listened to the conversation inside and quickly realized that the ouroboros was actually trying to fool Shao Yanzhe by saying that he was sick!
He was furious!
It really was that ouroboros that was behind it!
You're the one who's sick! Your whole family is sick!
At the same time, he couldn't help but worry: had Shao Yanzhe taken the medicine given to him by the Ouroboros before?
Could it cause some health problems?
With such worries in mind, when he saw the medicine in Shao Yanzhe's hand, he glared at it with hatred, wishing he could rush up and destroy it right now.
But he also knew that this wouldn't solve the problem.
Xuan Yao sat in the car, thinking about how to tell Shao Yanzhe that the doctor was no good, and the things he gave him were no good either.
This led him to realize after a while that the car was not taking the familiar route.
"Okay, we'll live here from now on."
Shao Yanzhe placed the black cat on the ground and watched its every move intently.
Xuan Yao strolled leisurely around the room, his gaze sweeping over a corner of the wall. After discovering a small gadget hidden there, he paid it no mind.
To him, that little thing was no different from an ant, so he simply ignored it.
Looking at the black cat, which showed no signs of abnormality, Shao Yanzhe frowned. It seemed that the unscientific things he had seen in this house were just his hallucinations.
It seems he needs to take his medicine properly.
Thinking this, he took out the medicine he hadn't taken before and compared it with the medicine he had gotten this time. He found that they were the same, so he opened the packaging and took the medicine according to the dosage prescribed by the doctor.
Seeing his actions, Xuan Yao immediately became alert. When he saw Shao Yanzhe about to take his medicine, he jumped up, knocked the pills away, and then sat down on them.
You can't take these medications!
Shao Yanzhe couldn't understand Xuan Yao's words, but he could understand his meaning from his behavior.
"You don't want me to take these medicines?"
Xuan Yao nodded quickly.
When Shao Yanzhe saw his actions, he couldn't help but smile. He just thought that the black cat had developed a psychological trauma from taking medicine before and didn't want him to take medicine either, so he planned to wait until he took the medicine behind his back.
Thinking this, he turned around and tried to put the cup in his hand on the table.
Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw a man dressed in an ancient scholar's robe standing behind him.
When the man noticed him looking at him, he walked towards him, his face showing excitement, and his mouth opening and closing as if saying something.
But Shao Yanzhe heard nothing.
He guessed that he was probably hallucinating again.
