MTL - Salted Fish Zombie-Chapter 42 Manman

At three o'clock in the night, the castle was silent.

Ning Su came out of the room, touched his nose, and climbed to the window of the children's room in 507 along the vines on the arched window.

Just like at night, he pulled away the dizzy Gu worms, poked his head out, and rolled his eyes: "Hi."

This time the oil paint puppet did not turn his head stiffly, because he was sitting facing the window.

Ning Su pointed to the window, this time the window was not only covered with Gu insects, but also locked inside.

After he finished pointing, he waited impatiently for the oil-painted puppet to open the window for him.

This is a very magical thing for ghost friends.

When ghost friends are born, they will knock on the player's door. When they are sure that they must knock on a certain player's door, they have chosen this player. When the player opens the door for them and welcomes them in, they will decide to follow this player. companion.

Companionship is called companionship birth, also called lifetime companionship.

This is the most romantic and cruel promise a companion ghost can make.

We must be born together and stay together for life. If one party cannot accompany us, we will perish together.

They knock first, but it's the player who opens the door, or decides whether or not to actually accompany it.

And now he had to decide whether to open the window or not.

The first time he knocked on the door, a player opened the door for him, but after opening the door, they lived in two rooms, each in a dark room, were they together?

The second time, it was a boy who took the initiative to knock on the window and walked to him.

He was exquisite and beautiful, and when he smiled, his peach eyes shone with a lustrous luster.

He would hug him, and then a steady stream of black matter that made the ghost feel warm was poured into his body.

That substance, carefully felt, is the original energy.

For human babies, the original energy comes from the mother.

For the ghosts born in the infinite game, the original energy should come from this game, but the boy has this kind of turbulent energy in his body.

He said to him: "I will come to you in the middle of the night, you have to open the window for me."

As before, sit in the dark until the system announces players who have gained luck.

After the system broadcast ended, he turned around and sat towards the window.

In the small and cramped children's room, there is a stump clock on the wall by the window.

a little.

two o'clock.

three o'clock.

"Hi."

The oil paint puppet is dirty gray as a whole, the wooden face is carved into a smiling face, and the dark purple mouth smiles exaggeratedly, implicating the red, green and black oil paint.

A bit like a clown, laughing, but not happy, so there is a sense of weirdness.

He looked at the clean and beautiful boy in front of the window with a "smile", his stiff knuckles moved.

After watching for a long time, he stood up and opened the window for the boy.

The cold air, pale moonlight, and a word greeted the dark children's room at the same time.

"If you don't shake your head and refuse, I'll steal you away."

The oil paint puppet stood stiffly in front of the window, looking down at him.

Just give it two seconds.

Ning Su stretched out his arms to hug him, and slid down the Lingxiao vine like a gust of wind, and jumped into the small garden.

Every day in this small garden, players accompany their ghost friends to play, but this is the first time for the oil-painted puppets to come.

He was a little overwhelmed, like a socially phobic person entering a high-end restaurant for the first time.

Ning Su carried him to the swing, and then he sat on it, sitting side by side with him and rocking gently.

After the oil-painted puppet got used to it, he snapped the wooden joints on his fingers, and there was an old and stiff "squeak" sound there.

Like an old robot in disrepair.

While feeding him, Ning Su asked, "Have you not eaten for a long time?"

He stared into the eyes of the painted puppet and discussed with him: "I feed you every night, can you do me a favor?"

The oil-painted puppet looked at him, and its fake eyes gleamed a layer of mournful white under the moonlight.

Ning Su pointed to the big iron door, "Can you try, can you open that door?"

The oil-painted puppet stared stiffly at the iron door, which was the place to leave.

Ning Su assured him again, "I just want you to try, I won't leave tonight, and I will play with you tomorrow night."

The oil paint puppet jumped off the swing and walked towards the iron gate.

Ning Su followed closely, "Try first to see if you can get out through the crack of the door, and then try to see if you can open the door for others."

The oil-painted puppet looked back at him, and took a step sideways through the crack of the door. After taking this step, he saw that the pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to brighten a little, and became more beautiful.

The man pulled him in, "Try if you can open the door?"

He held the oil paint puppet by the arm and stood silently for a while.

The pale moonlight spread down, casting two very close shadows, one large and one small, on the stone floor.

The boy's hands are very white, and the oil-painted puppet's arms are dirty. It is a kind of dirty oil paint that seeps into the wood texture and is difficult to erase.

"Ha... ah..."

Ning Su picked him up, and the oil-painted puppet could reach the doorknob.

Hold it up with a wooden hand, and use a little force.

"squeak-"

Numerous Gu worms climbed up the iron gate.

There was a man with his back to the moonlight, and the shadow stretched to their feet.

Ning Su put down the oil-painted puppet, turned around and greeted the people behind him: "Grandma Gu, you also come to enjoy the moon."

The little Gu Po changed the dirty clothes she wore when she first entered the dungeon, and covered her whole body with a black cloak that didn't look dirty.

His hair was still dirty and greasy, hanging heavily on both sides of his cheeks, half covering his face.

Under the pale moonlight, there is a sense of sight of a witch who has stepped out of a dark fairy tale.

The black Gu worm climbed onto Ning Su's feet.

"Ning Su, let me ask you again, would you like to come to the fifth floor." A hoarse voice came out of the rough throat.

The reason why he used the word "again" was because the last time he and Shi Tianshu asked Ning Su to sit beside him at the same time, Ning Su essentially chose Shi Tianshu.

"If the fifth floor wants to fight against the sixth floor, I don't want to." Ning Su said.

Gu worms had already crawled up his calf.

"Even you like her." Gu Po said in a low voice, he raised his head slightly, "I thought you were different."

Ning Su let out a "huh", "I'm indeed a little different."

There was a silence.

Gu Po said: "I thought so before."

In all the dungeons that he and Shi Tianshu appear in, all players first look at Shi Tianshu, choose Shi Tianshu, follow Shi Tianshu, and then him.

Only boys are different.

When he appeared in the most despicable image of a young man, he did not expect that there would be a boy who would take the initiative to sit beside him when Shi Tianshu was present.

Talk to him through the stench of his body.

He didn't pretend that he didn't mind. If he was pretending, he couldn't eat so deliciously.

He took the initiative to greet him, and even took his arm to go to the bathroom with him.

But later, after Shi Tianshu took the initiative to talk to him, he changed.

Gu Po asked: "Why did you drag me to the bathroom that day?"

Ning Su pursed his lips. He thought that in elementary school, those who went to the bathroom together in the class had a good time.

Especially among male classmates, it is very common for two girls to go to the toilet together. If two boys are together, they must regard each other as good friends.

Ning Su said: "At that time, President Shi and Zhu Shuangshuang both went to the bathroom on the right. I thought you were going to the bathroom. I was afraid you would go there too. I can't tell your gender. You can't go there because they are there."

The garden was silent.

Gu Po stood there quietly, her figure was lonely, when that "heh" laughed, it was naturally self-deprecating and funny.

So, it was Shi Tianshu and the girl named Zhu Shuangshuang.

With no indication of his gender, did he ever wonder if it would be inappropriate to be pulled into the men's bathroom if he was a girl.

Even then there was no clear separation of male and female restrooms.

The dense Gu worms spread over his lower body like a black tide, and when they continued to move upward, they touched the oil-painted puppet and stopped.

Originally, Ning Su was holding the oil-painted puppet, but when the Gu worm climbed up, the oil-painted puppet hugged Ning Su's head instead, showing no intention of coming down.

Gu Po looked at Ning Su quietly, the muscles on her cheeks seemed to tremble.

If something happened to the Paint Puppet, something happened to her.

Just for one night.

"Then don't want your legs!"

The Gu worm jumped into Ning Su's leg excitedly

— This is from Gu Po’s point of view.

Slowly, he realized something was wrong.

It wasn't the Gu worms sucking his flesh into his legs, but the Gu worms rubbing against his legs drunkenly one by one.

There was an eerie silence in the garden.

Ning Su walked up to Gu Po and put the oil-painted puppet in his arms, "Well, I am indeed a little different, good night."

After speaking, he quickly slipped away.

Running extremely fast, Gu insects scattered all the way.

Under the moonlight, Gu Po stood stiffly in place, and the oil-painted puppet in his arms was also stiff.

Room 507 was restored to its original appearance again.

There is a door between the two dark houses, and the oil-painted puppet and the little Gu Po are sitting on the beds on one side.

Ning Su, who said he wanted to go back, took a look at the window of the children's room, and then went to the little Gu Po's room to take a look.

"What are you looking at? To see my joke?"

The little Gu Po didn't look up, "My ghost friend was bewitched by you, and my Gu worm was bewitched by you, are you very proud?"

Now that he was discovered, Ning Su stopped hiding, "I'm watching, they are obviously two very lonely people, why are they separated into two rooms."

Ning Su knocked on the window, "Grandma Gu, please open the window for me."

The little Gu Po sat on the bed for a long time before the window in front of Ning Su was opened by the Gu.

The boy skilfully opened the window and came in, "I thought about it, and I still have to come to apologize to you."

"I pulled you into the bathroom on the left that day because I prefer you to be a boy."

He said, "I can take you to the bathroom with me later."

Gu Po's room rarely turns on the lights.

Perhaps this is good for him to raise Gu, or there may be other reasons.

The pale moonlight shone in, and the lighting effect was limited, and each other's facial features could not be seen clearly in the dark.

Ning Su wore a pair of cream yellow pants, which became the brightest color in the room.

Gu Po fixed on his trousers out of the corner of her eye, and said tauntingly: "Boy? Do you think someone who can learn Gu, is a man called Gu Po?"

In some remote villages where Gu art exists, there is indeed a saying that Gu art is passed on from female to male, and this is also the reason for the rise of the name Gu Po.

He thought that the boy couldn't answer this question, but he didn't expect him to say: "Ah, I see, you were a girl when you were young, but you turned into a boy when you were adolescence, right?"

Gu Po froze all over, and suddenly raised her head to look at him, her swollen eyes were filled with madness, and her eyeballs trembled violently.

He seemed to have thought of something.

He stared at him fiercely, thinking that he would see a strange look in Ning Su's eyes.

He is used to it, and has been living in it since he was young, with contempt, fear, and disgust in his eyes.

The little Gu Po has a name.

It's just that he himself doesn't want to mention it anymore, and people who know about it at the base dare not mention it casually, and they all call him Gu Po.

He never mentions it because his name is very feminine.

His name is Miao Shu.

It has the same word "Shu" as Shi Tianshu. Everyone in the game base knows Shi Tianshu, but very few people know Miao Shu.

He has such a feminine name because when he was a kid, everyone, including himself, thought he was a girl.

He was born in a patriarchal village, and he was the fourth girl in his family.

In that village where girls are completely incomparable to boys, the only priority for girls is to learn Gu from the Gu woman.

He was given to Gu Po by his parents because the family couldn't afford so many children.

He learns Gu from Gu Po and undertakes all the housework.

The old Gu woman was taciturn, and never spoke except when teaching him and ordering him. At most, she didn't speak for a week.

Later he slowly understood why.

In that feudal and superstitious village, those who looked down on patients would look for Gu Po, but most of the time, the villagers avoided Gu Po, with all kinds of indifferent comments and slanders behind them.

Whose healthy person died suddenly, it must be because of Gu Po.

This year's severe drought, the harvest in the village is very poor, it must be because of Gu Po.

Whose man was caught having a wild relationship with a woman outside. The man cried and said that he passed through the gate of the Gu Po's house, and somehow he became obsessed with ghosts.

That village seems to need such a person to vent their dissatisfaction and use it as an excuse for all despicable behavior.

He naturally received the same treatment in the village.

When I went to the town to go to primary school, in the school of learning knowledge, this situation not only did not get better, it was even more terrible.

He has never been at the same table.

They said he had lice on his head and worms on his body.

If someone in the class suddenly fell ill, the parents would make trouble in the class and force him to change classes again and again. No teacher liked him.

His book was thrown out of the classroom, and an unsuspecting boy passed by to pick it up, and the whole class rushed out and shouted excitedly around him.

"He helped Miao Shu pick up textbooks, he must have been bewitched by Miao Shu!"

"He definitely doesn't think Miao Shu is dirty, but thinks Miao Shu is very beautiful, so he wants to sleep with her!"

"Ah?~~~"

The boy blushed, pointed at him and shouted: "How can I like such a disgusting person like her, I'm going to throw up when I see her!"

As he said that, he turned his back to him, leaned on a tree and vomited.

He pukes so hard, trying so hard to take a stand, to fit in with their right team.

No boy dares or wants to approach him.

As soon as he reached the door of the toilet, the girl inside hurried out.

As if he was the plague.

He thought that was it.

That was the worst of his fate.

Unexpectedly, there are even more miserable and ridiculous things waiting for him ahead.

He became more and more like a boy, and his masculine characteristics became more and more obvious. Finally, during a medical examination, he rushed out of the township hospital and became a shocking anecdote in the town.

They all looked at him with a strange look of shock, excitement, and disgust.

The girls in his class crazily hit him with books and schoolbags, calling him a pervert.

He was stoned by a **** the way to the toilet. Two boys at the door of the men's toilet stared at him excitedly, and waved to him while staring at him.

The villagers said that he was finally backlashed, and he was cursed after doing too many sinister things, turning into a monster with neither male nor female.

What he didn't expect was that Gu Po's attitude became even more intense after she knew about this.

While beating him with a broom, she yelled at him crazily, cursing him more than she could say in a year.

Looking at the crazy and twisted hatred in her wrinkled eyes, he understood that she had finally found her "catharsis".

"Only girls can learn Gu. If you raise Gu with a man's body, you will suffer backlash and be punished by the Gu God!" She yelled hoarsely and ferociously.

Listen, what they say is alike.

The ridiculous thing is that he was really backlashed, and he seemed to be a cursed person.

The skin on his body began to fester, his appearance became more and more unsightly, and he stinks all over his body.

He can no longer go to school, can no longer contact people, and can no longer live with Gu Po.

He was lying under a dead tree.

Only crows are willing to land on that dead tree, and only worms are willing to get close to him.

If he hadn't entered the game, he might have died.

Entering the game, everything is covered.

Until, it was directly opened by the boy in front of him, revealing his distorted past like a maggot.

The boy who guessed this unbelievable fact will definitely look at him strangely, not to mention disgusting, just like when everyone knew about it.

But he didn't.

He sees him the same way he sees humans, ghost friends, everything he sees as normal.

He said as usual in a chat: "Ah, you lack 5α-reductase in your body."

"What, what?"

Even the voodoo was blinded for a while, hearing such a word in a horror game is like hearing nonsense, and it should be more nonsense than nonsense.

"Don't believe me." The boy puffed up his chest and said, "I'm a biology student. I entered the junior class of the university at the age of 12, and I have been studying major biological topics as a graduate student and tutor at the age of 15. You have to believe that I believe in science."

"..."

The boy sat cross-legged on the carpet, faced the boy sitting on the bed, and popularized scientific knowledge with him, "Your situation is only the basics for biological humans. What I just said, in simple terms, is the synthesis of 5α-2 A necessary substance for hydrotestosterone."

silence.

"That is, you have to know that little geniuses sometimes don't give lectures to others."

He bowed his respect and said: "In short, without this kind of thing, you can't produce enough male hormones at first, until your body grows to a mature stage."

"So, you looked like a girl when you were young, and when you grow up, male hormones start to be secreted normally, and you start to masculinize."

"There are many people of your type in the world, like x people, y people, xxy people, xyy people, etc., all over the world."

"There is also an organization called [xy family], which is to tell you that you are not alone, you are a real and bright human being, and you have a warm family."

Ning Su continued to popularize himself with him, "As for the influencing factors, there are heredity, and when pregnant, parents use those medicines that change the **** of the fetus."

"Say it again, say it again..."

The voice was hoarse, and seemed to be crying.

The speaker lowered his head, his long hair covered his face in the darkness, and he could faintly see his whole body trembling slightly.

Ning Su pursed his lips and said it again. He added in a very personal way, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with the child himself."

It was too quiet in the room.

It's so quiet that you can hear the sound of liquid falling on the fabric.

After an unknown amount of time, the little Gu Po raised her head and stared at him blankly.

The dense black night sky reveals a hint of fish belly white.

He could faintly see the boy sitting on the carpet.

He has soft black hair, and his skin is so white that it glows softly in a dark room. His big peach blossom eyes are moist and clear, and the long eyelashes between them are like the wings of a butterfly flapping.

There was an ugly frog who lived in a dark world.

He was tormented by darkness and loneliness day after day, always thinking that this dark and silent world was hell, and he was the disgusting dark creature in hell.

Until one day, a beautiful butterfly flew by above. The butterfly's wings were beautiful and slender, but it had a magical butterfly effect, lifting the stone above the head.

When the bright sunlight shone on him, he realized that he was not in hell, but at the bottom of the well.

"You went to college at the age of twelve, and I just entered junior high school at the age of twelve, and I am showing signs of becoming a boy." He turned his head and said.

Ning Su: "I'm so envious that you can go to the first grade of junior high school at the age of twelve."

"?"

Ning Su: "It's great to have money to go to junior high school, but I have no money to go to school, so I have to skip grades and go to the junior class."

"..."

"Anyway, you're smart."

"Oh yes." The boy nodded, "I just got sick later, a virus attacked my brain, and I became a little dull."

The two boys chatted casually like ordinary friends in a dim room.

After an unknown amount of time, the boy looked out the window, "It's almost dawn, I have to go."

He deftly flipped through the window and left.

The little Gu Po sat on the bed for a while, then walked to the wardrobe next to the bed, and opened the door.

The system does not allocate a room, the room is chosen by the player. Before the selection, it is not known whether the room is a boy or a girl, and clothes of both genders are prepared in the closet.

Like the petal collar pink shirt Ning Su is wearing today, it belongs to a girl, he may not know it.

On the right side of the closet is a row of exquisite and beautiful dresses for six-year-old girls.

With blistered hands, gently caressing one of the silk organza puff sleeve dresses.

Over the years, he forced himself to forget the past, and his memory really began to blur.

It is not clear what he looked like when he was six years old, but what is certain is that he looked like a girl at that time.

Still a pretty girl.

Six years old, probably when a girl first gave birth to a love of beauty.

Those two years were the only years in his life when he would look in the mirror.

He closed the closet door and went to the children's room door.

He opened the heavy door of the nursery.

The oil paint puppet sits on the crib and looks at him.

Look at him like he did when he opened the door for the first time.

At that time, when he saw him for the first time, the dirty oil paint that couldn't be washed off, he seemed to see himself, and shut him directly into the children's room.

In the bathroom, he heard a player say that he resembled him, and he didn't even want to take him down for dinner, and he didn't even want to see him.

The oil paint puppet jumped off the bed and trotted over to hug him.

The little Gu Po bit her lip hard, holding back something.

The oil paint puppet hugged him even harder, clinging to him tightly.

When the climbing vine slid down from the window, the peach-eyed boy hugged him tightly.

He asked him, "Do you like the feeling of being hugged like this?"

"Ha... ah..."

"Then go and hug your companion like this, he will like it too."
