Chapter 44 Humanoid



Xia Lunong felt as if there was a ball of fire on his stomach where Kong Zhi was rubbing him.

The fire went up along his stomach and spread to his limbs, burning his bones.

Xia Lunong had been a cat for such a long time and had never changed back to human form. He didn't know how to change.

Now that something unexpected had happened, he instinctively felt that this was the feeling of changing back to human form. He stretched his body as hard as he could, ready to welcome the great transformation.

Just when his body was about to stretch to the limit, Kong Zhi paused while rubbing his stomach and looked down at him.

Xia Lunong's emerald eyes raised and met Kong Zhi's eyes. Only then did he realize what had happened. The whole cat was shocked and let out a "meow". He rolled over Kong Zhi's legs and landed on all fours with a bang.

Just as Kong Zhi stretched out his hand to catch him, he had already tiptoed into his room, slammed into the door like a cat, and slammed the door shut with a "click".

Xia Huoqu heard the noise in the kitchen, took a few steps forward to see, and asked in confusion: "What happened?"

Kong Zhi paused and curled up his hand in the air, "Xiao Nong ran into the room."

"Huh?" Xia Huoqu raised his wet hand and knocked on the door, "Xiao Nong?"

"Meow!" Xia Lunong propped up the door with her foot pads to prevent him from coming in. Xia

Huoqu was confused, but did not force him, "Call us if you have anything."

"Meow."

Xia Huoqu stood outside the door for a while, and there was no movement inside.

Yan Xinian came over and said, "Xiaonong has eaten so many bamboo shoots, he should be able to turn back into a human."

Xia Huoqu finally understood why his brother was so anxious, and he was suddenly a little amused.

Xia Lunong heard Yan Xinian's words from the side, and was reassured in his heart.

He dragged his tail around the room and felt the burning sensation in his stomach getting worse. He immediately stopped hesitating and jumped onto the bed with all his strength.

He originally wanted to lie down and turn back into a human, but when he got to the bed, he found that the bed had already been used by Kong Zhi. Kong Zhi's clothes were placed next to the pillow, and the bed was full of his breath.

Xia Lunong turned around twice on the bed. Because his stomach was really uncomfortable, he soon didn't care about anything else. His four legs went limp and he lay down on the bed, lying on his side and concentrating on feeling the warmth flowing through his body.

At the moment when he focused his mind, he suddenly felt pain in his hands and feet, which felt a bit like cramps.

He gritted his teeth to endure the strange feeling, and a muffled groan came out from between his teeth.

The muffled groan was not the meowing of a cat, but the voice of a human.

Xia Lunong was startled and subconsciously raised his head to see what was going on. He immediately saw bare hands and feet instead of hairy limbs.

? ! !

Xia Lunong's eyes widened. He turned back so quickly? ! He

really turned back.

Xia Lunong turned over and sat up, reaching out to feel his whole body, every part of his body was intact, especially his hands.

He clenched his fists, very happy that his flexible fingers were back.

Xia Lunong jumped out of bed and was about to run out to tell his brother the exciting news. When he ran to the door, he suddenly realized that he was not wearing any clothes.

Cats have long hair to cover their bodies and do not need clothes, but people do.

Xia Lunong walked around the room and soon found out in despair that because this room was given to Kong Zhi to live in, his brother had moved out most of his personal belongings for Kong Zhi's convenience, and the clothes and pants in the closet were the cleanest.

It was a mistake.

Xia Lunong rubbed his forehead with his hand. He should have run to his brother's room just now.

"Duk-duk," Xia Lunong knocked on the door and called out awkwardly from inside, "Brother?"

Xia Huoqu was standing outside the door and quickly responded, "Xiao Nong, have you turned back into human form?"

Xia Lunong hummed softly and said awkwardly, "Brother, help me get some clothes."

Xia Huoqu then remembered that he had cleaned up the room, "Wait a minute."

Xia Huoqu went back to his room and got him a set of clothes from inside and outside, knocked on the door, and passed the clothes in through the crack of the door.

Xia Lunong breathed a sigh of relief, put on his clothes, opened the door, and looked at his brother and the others awkwardly.

The candles were not bright enough, and the few people couldn't see each other's expressions clearly.

Xia Huoqu reached out and patted his shoulder, "I'm glad you can change back."

Yan Xinian asked with a smile, "Are you not feeling uncomfortable now?"

Xia Lunong was more thin-skinned in human form than in cat form, and responded vaguely, "Yeah."

Xia Huoqu said, "Everyone has been busy all day, let's go to bed early."

"Okay." Yan Xinian said, "Kongzhi sleeps in Xiaonong's room, Xiaonong sleeps in your room, what about you? How about you sleep in my place? I happen to have an empty guest room there."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow, we'll just deal with it for one night first." Xia Huoqu pushed him, "Go back and rest quickly."

Xia Lunong also said to Kongzhi, "Well, I basically didn't make any mess in the room, you go in and rest."

Kongzhi nodded.

Seeing him getting up and walking towards the room, Xia Lunong called him awkwardly, "Well, thank you for the past few days."

"It's nothing."

Everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

When Xia Lunong lay down next to his brother, he completely relaxed.

Xia Huoqu asked, "What's wrong with your ability? Why is it so difficult to change back to human form?"

"I don't know." Xia Lunong was depressed, "I have been a cat for so many days, and I have never felt a warm stomach like today, not to mention the feeling of being able to stretch whenever I want."

After Xia Lunong successfully changed back to human form, he found that changing back to human form was actually very simple, just like yawning and stretching, it can be used naturally.

Xia Huoqu asked again: "What about your superpowers? Isn't your superpower to promote plant growth? And can it predict?"

"I don't know either." After answering, Xia Lunong felt embarrassed that he didn't know anything, and said reluctantly, "This is not something I took the initiative to use. It's just that some thoughts and images naturally popped up in my mind. It's out of my control."

Xia Lunong really had no idea about the beast transformation. His brother asked a few questions, stopped asking, patted his back, and said, "Go to sleep."

Xia Lunong slept until dawn, and when he woke up, he was still in human form.

He got dressed and went out to see that everyone in the house had gotten up except him.

Kong Zhi was weeding in the yard, and when he saw him coming out, he said, "Good morning."

Xia Lunong smiled, showing a beautiful mouthful of white teeth, "Good morning, how did you sleep last night?"

"Not bad." Kong Zhi took the initiative to say, "Brother Huo Qu and Captain Yan went out for a meeting. Breakfast is on the table. We have all eaten. You can wash up and eat it yourself."

"Why are you going to a meeting again?"

Xia Lunong muttered a few words, turned back and took a look at the breakfast first. Seeing that it was boiled sweet potatoes and white porridge with pickled vegetables, his appetite instantly decreased.

He took out the cup and squatted under the eaves to brush his teeth, watching Kong Zhi's movements.

The tree in the corner of the yard was still very tall. The vines of pumpkin and winter melon climbed on the trunk. Both vegetables had already produced flower buds, especially the pumpkin. The orange-yellow flowers looked very tempting.

Xia Lunong finished brushing her teeth and walked over to check. "There are quite a lot of pumpkin flowers on this vine. We can pick some and stir-fry them at noon."

Kong Zhi: "Yeah."

"Winter melon is okay too. We need to pinch some off. Hey, Kong Zhi, come and see if the loquats have borne fruit?"

The loquats and the big trees were side by side. They had planted three in total. Now they were only as tall as a person's thigh. The loquat leaves were quite lush. This was the first time Xia Lunong had discovered fruit.

He bent down and approached the loquat leaves and examined them carefully.

Soon they found that there were indeed loquats, but not many. Only the one in the middle and on the left had two or three fruits, and they didn't know if they would grow big.

Kong Zhi came over to take a look and nodded.

Xia Lunong didn't mind his indifference and happily walked around the yard.

Now the yard has begun to show a sign of a good harvest.

Not only pumpkins, winter melons, and loquats, but also strawberries, watermelons, cantaloupes, etc. are blooming and bearing fruit. The white and yellow flowers are hidden among the green leaves, which makes people happy.

During the holidays, the yard must be full of fruits.

Xia Lunong walked around and finally stopped in front of the strawberries.

He saw that the strawberries had already produced small green strawberries, and he felt greedy. He reached out to touch the strawberries and wanted to use his supernatural power to stimulate them.

As long as they stimulated them, at most tomorrow, they would have big red and juicy strawberries to eat.

Thinking of this, Xia Lunong swallowed his saliva.

Just as he was about to make a move, a hand stretched out from the side and grabbed his hand, "What are you going to do?"

"Ah?" Xia Lunong was startled by the slightly cool palm on his wrist, and turned around to explain, "I'm just using some supernatural powers."

Kong Zhi let go of his wrist, "Do you still want to overdraw?"

"Hey, it's nothing." Xia Lunong rubbed his wrist unconsciously with his other hand, and he didn't have much confidence when he said this.

Kong Zhi glanced at him indifferently and didn't persuade him again.

Xia Lunong thought about it and felt that it was not right, so he withdrew his hand and stood up, "Forget it, I'll rest for a few days."

Kong Zhi went back to weed.

Xia Lunong looked at him and went back to the house to have breakfast.

The breakfast in the cafeteria was as unpalatable as always.

Xia Lunong found it difficult to swallow, so she ate a little hastily, put away the dishes and washed them, then went out of the house and asked Kong Zhi: "Did my brother and the others tell us what we are going to do today?"

"No."

"Oh. Then why don't we go to the fields to take a look? We just set up the tomato seedlings yesterday, and we have to pick up the eggplants, beans, peppers, peanuts, etc. again."

Kong Zhi listened beside him.

Xia Lunong didn't mind whether he responded or not. She counted them by herself and said, "We can still open up a field next to the peanuts. After we clean up the field, we will go to Lao Liu to exchange some garlic and plant some garlic then. Don't waste the ridges. I saw many people planting soybeans on their ridges yesterday. Let's plant some too and harvest as much as we can."

Xia Lunong counted them and felt relieved. She said to Kong Zhi, "These things won't be too manpower-intensive. We can take time out to collect supplies outside and come back to take care of the vegetable fields when we are tired. You can take care of it with me, and I will give you a share of the harvest."

Kong Zhi looked at him and said calmly, "I may not stay."

Xia Lunong was counting on her fingers and was stunned when she heard what he said, "Ah?" Kong

Zhi looked at him.

Xia Lunong was stunned for a moment, then asked blankly: "What do you mean? Where are you going if you don't stay? Pursue the Spark Plan? Or find someone or fulfill a wish?"

"None of them."

"You still say you may not stay?" Xia Lunong thought that the two of them were friends in need, so she was very close to him. Hearing his words, she was filled with great disappointment. "You don't like us?"

Kong Zhi opened his mouth, and it seemed that he wanted to explain.

Xia Lunong said depressedly: "You called me 'Xiao Nong', and I thought we were very close. Even if you called me little, I didn't correct you."

Kong Zhi: "..."
