Chapter 537 The Magical Effects of Colds
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows and looked sideways at Feifei, who noticed his gaze and smiled at him with narrowed eyes.
He shook his head slightly again and could feel the familiar weight on top of his head.
He was used to having Taotie lying on his head, so sometimes when the Taotie left, he felt his head was light and fluttery, and he was quite uncomfortable with it.
……
Feifei and Taotie were clearly by his side.
Then, Xiao Xiao looked at Zhao Luzheng who was puzzled, and had some guesses in his mind.
"Youngest, take a closer look, is there really nothing there?"
Xiao Xiao turned his head and shrugged his right shoulder, "Fei Fei."
He raised his head slightly again, "Taotie."
……
"No."
Zhao Lu was a little confused. He was not blind and the two monsters were very obvious. How could he have missed them?
Just, "Third brother, what do you mean?"
Zhao Luzheng suddenly seemed to realize something, but he was still confused, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
He suddenly had a bad feeling.
……
"What happened?"
Zhuge Yun, realizing that something was wrong, looked left and right and asked repeatedly.
……
Although Zhang Bo was also full of suspicion, he slapped Zhuge Yun on the shoulder without hesitation, "Be quiet, kid."
Zhuge Yun grinned, rubbed his shoulders with his hands, and then calmed down.
……
Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun's actions did not affect Zhao Luzheng. Or rather, Zhao Luzheng was a little distracted by a certain guess. He stared at Xiao Xiao with burning eyes, and ignored all other people and things.
"Third brother?"
Zhao Luzheng's lips moved, opening and closing, but in the end only a muffled cry came out.
……
"Feifei and Taotie are right beside me."
“They never left.”
Xiao Xiao slowed down his tone a bit, but looking at Zhao Luzheng who was stunned for a moment, he thought that maybe his deliberate efforts were useless.
……
Zhao Luzheng was a little slow to react.
What do you mean?
If Feifei and Taotie were still with the third brother, why didn't he see it?
Zhao Lu opened his eyes wide in despair, but the figure that had become very familiar to him in the past few days had disappeared from his sight.
……
"I can't see again?"
Zhao Luzheng's face was somewhat dull and his brain went blank for a moment.
For a moment, he didn't know how to react.
He wanted to smile, but his facial muscles were too stiff to move.
In the end, he could only look at Xiao Xiao with a wooden face.
……
"what?!"
"Youngest, can't you see?!"
Zhuge Yun shouted, "What's going on? Weren't we able to see it yesterday?"
"Yes."
"Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
Seeing Zhao Luzheng looking dazed with a huge shock, Zhang Bo couldn't think of any words of comfort and could only say something dry.
……
"uncomfortable?"
As if something had touched a nerve, Zhao Luzheng suddenly said, "I feel better today than in the past few days!"
A week ago, he was suffering from a cold, which caused him to feel dizzy, have a dry mouth and sore throat, and feel weak all over. Now, all his illnesses are gone, he is full of energy, and how could he feel uncomfortable at all?
……
"Well-"
Zhang Bo also knew that he had asked a stupid question, and he looked a little embarrassed.
Because of his height, Zhuge Yun felt frustrated and patted Zhang Bo's arm hard to avenge his previous "shooting arrow". "Boss, if you can't speak, just keep quiet, understand?" There was a bit of arrogance on his face, like a villain who had succeeded.
The veins on Zhang Bo's forehead jumped. With a forced smile, he pinched Zhuge Yun's sleeve and then shook it off with force, with a hint of disgust in his movements.
Zhuge Yun shrugged and decided to quit while he was ahead.
……
"Third brother, why?"
Zhao Luzheng was so upset that he wanted to cry but he had no tears. He was so happy that God finally gave him a little help, but in the end, he was too happy and sad. God actually took his help back? !
Take it back?!
……
How can you take back what you have given?
Zhao Luzheng felt that his three views had been refreshed.
Is it really a good thing that even God is so fickle and inconsistent?
It's not a big deal, it's just the ability to see monsters, but there's a time limit?!
If I had known this...
If he had known this would happen, he would have begged his third brother to let him touch the monster with his own hands these days.
Instead of thinking about taking it slow and building a good relationship with the two monsters first and then working your way up.
The two monsters listen to the third brother so much. If the third brother helps him, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake for him to just touch the monster’s fur?
……
Zhao Lu felt his heart aching.
What is regret?
He experienced it firsthand.
……
Looking at the youngest one with a grief-stricken face, Xiao Xiao, Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun all laughed in an unkind way.
"You deserved it, youngest brother. Who told you to be so cocky before?"
"Is this retribution now?"
"Pfft~hahaha~"
Zhuge Yun was gloating over other people's misfortune.
"Youngest~"
Zhang Bo patted Zhao Lvzheng's bed rails, making a "clang~clang~" sound. He looked up and saw Zhao Lvzheng's grief-stricken face and he was speechless. "Hahaha~"
……
Zhao Luzheng: ...
You are a bunch of bastards who take advantage of others’ misfortune and have no brotherhood!
Can't you see he is sad?
No one came to comfort him?!
……
Xiao Xiao held back, his shoulders shook a few times, and he barely swallowed back the smile that was rising in his throat.
However, the upward curve of the corners of his mouth and the smile in his eyes were still extremely obvious.
He calmed himself down and took a few deep breaths to make sure he wouldn't burst out laughing before he calmly answered Zhao Luzheng's question.
"I'm not sure why."
"but-"
"But what?"
Zhuge Yun hurriedly took over the conversation, with a smile on his face that made Zhao Luzheng feel particularly irritating and dazzling.
However, he was not in the mood to argue with Zhuge Yun right now. He looked at Xiao Xiao expectantly.
The original disappointment was rekindled into a faint spark of hope after hearing the word "but".
Maybe Third Brother has a way to make him see it again.
After all, he's different, isn't he?
He could clearly see it, but something must have gone wrong and now he can't see anymore.
So, as long as the problem is solved, he can see again.
……
"I have a guess."
"What guess?"
"Say it."
Zhang Bo and Zhuge Yun urged impatiently.
Zhao Luzheng looked at Xiao Xiao eagerly with an earnest gaze.
……
"Youngest, you saw the monster when you had a cold."
Xiao Xiao stated an obvious fact. Although everyone was confused, they still listened attentively with bated breath, for fear of missing a single word.
"And now, your cold is healed."
"So the youngest one can't see monsters?"
Zhuge Yun quickly continued the second half of Xiao Xiao's sentence, his expression a little weird and a little shocked.
If someone had told him before that he could see monsters if he had a cold, he would definitely think that the other person had something wrong with his IQ, or was crazy about seeing monsters.
but now
