What It’s Like Being a Vampire

When Xia Tianhuo arrived at Jianzhou City Airport, Xiang Kun and Lao Xia had already received the person.

And it's not just Xiang Kun and Lao Xia, Tang Baona and Yang Zhener are also there.

To be honest, he hadn't seen Tang Baona for a long time. He really liked Tang Baona at the beginning, but as Lao Xia said, he had actually never met Tang Baona a few times and didn't know much about her. His crush was more based on Tang Baona's appearance is a character and image that she imagined unilaterally.

Before going abroad last year, he had actually given up and looked away. The life and death experience in Myanmar had made him have some subtle changes in his understanding of himself and the world, which is commonly known as "refreshing". "Three Views" - it's just not a big refresh, it's a small upgrade, with many more perspectives that I didn't have before.

So now, he can face Tang Baona calmly and say hello normally.

Instead, his attention was focused more on Xiang Kun and the guests Xiang Kun and the others came to pick up at the airport.

Before going abroad years ago, he once "sited out" outside the community where Xiang Kun lived and met Xiang Kun once.

To be honest, Xiang Kun's first impression on him was quite good. He was not the image of an idle pretty boy, a cowardly young scholar, or a playboy. Although he wore glasses, his bald head and strong body made him look quite handsome. To be strong and steady.

Even though he was shorter than him, he actually felt that Xiang Kun would give him a sense of pressure when they were face to face.

This made Xia Tianhuo at that time feel inexplicably relieved that "Nana's vision is okay."

Of course, when he learned that Xiang Kun could often play with Lao Xia, his impression of Xiang Kun naturally improved.

This time he saw Xiang Kun again after a few months. Although there was no change in appearance and figure, the overall feeling for him was a little different. I don't know if it was because Lao Xia was around. Intuitively, he felt The pressure from Xiang Kun became even smaller.

And a few months ago, Xiang Kun gave people a feeling of being quiet but alert, always watching all directions and listening to all directions, but now it is very different, as if he suddenly became more "Buddhist" and more restrained - of course , it was not publicity before.

In short, it gave him the feeling that Xiang Kun had an indescribable change, which made him feel strange.

Of course, since they had only met once before, he was actually not sure whether his feeling was purely due to the psychological changes brought about by his experience in Myanmar.

But for the guests Xiang Kun and the others received,

After Xia Tianhuo saw it, he quickly became curious and surprised.

When he first arrived at the airport and saw Tang Baona and Yang Zhener, he actually thought that Xiang Kun and Lao Xia were here to pick them up. But when he got close to the MPV they drove, he saw the people standing next to the car. , only to discover that Xiang Kun and the others came to pick up someone else. Tang Baona and Yang Zhener also came all the way from Tongshi Town to pick them up.

What they came to pick up was a father and daughter, or to be precise, a canary.

Xia Tianhuo was really surprised. This was the first time he saw someone going out to play with a pet bird.

When he got in the car, the middle-aged man sitting in the passenger seat, whom Xiang Kun and others called "Professor Li", started talking about birds:

"In order to ensure that 'Jin Shining' can get on the plane, I took it to apply for a quarantine certificate the day before yesterday, but I am still a little worried. I am afraid that 'Jin Shining' will be alone...well, will a bird stay in the checked cabin? Will be frightened or something. But 'Little Apple' trusts 'Golden Shining' more, and I am sure that it can survive these few hours of journey. I know how attached 'Little Apple' is to 'Golden Shining', since she That being said, it should be no problem. Sure enough, after lying down, we picked up our luggage and picked up the 'Golden Shining'. This guy looked lively and energetic in the cage, and there was no problem at all. I really I'm quite worried. If 'Jin Shining Shining' has some kind of stress reaction, it will be difficult for you to explain it to Mr. Xiang. Alas, if 'Little Apple' hadn't insisted on taking him to Copperstone Town to play, I would have been more inclined. Leave it at home and find someone to take care of it for a few days."

Xiang Kun came to pick him up this time in a seven-seater MPV. "Professor Li" was sitting in the passenger seat. The two seats in the back were Lao Xia and Xia Tianhuo. The third row was occupied by Tang Baona and Yang Zhen'er. A beautiful girl from "Little Apple".

The canary named "Golden Shining" and the cage it was in were placed on the floor in the middle of the second row.

Xia Tianhuo looked down at the canary and found that the canary in the cage was also looking at him with its head tilted. But after only one glance, he turned his head and jumped to the side of the cage next to Lao Xia with his head held high. , seems a little disgusted?

This surprised Xia Tianhuo. The canary actually made such a very anthropomorphic action, and he actually felt clearly that he was disliked and looked down upon.

There's something wrong with this bird!

Moreover, you are a bird, or a bird in a cage. What do you think?

After the car started driving, through the communication between the three girls in the back seat, Xia Tianhuo learned another thing that shocked him - the girl "Little Apple" sitting between Tang Baona and Yang Zhener turned out to be blind!

When Xia Tianhuo arrived at the airport to meet them, "Little Apple" and his daughter had not yet gotten in the car.

This girl, who looked to be about 17 or 18 years old, did not wear sunglasses. She had big, beautiful eyes and very lively eyes. She did not look like a blind person at all.

More importantly, when he approached, "Little Apple" naturally looked at his location, and its eyes were precisely positioned on him.

Later, when I got in the car, I could do it easily by myself, and there was no sign of vision problems at all. But now judging from the situation that Tang Baona and the others just chatted with, she was actually blind since birth, and she was completely blind. state?

Unable to resist his curiosity, Xia Tianhuo turned back to look at "Little Apple", but before asking, he met "Little Apple's" eyes.

Then this "blind girl" actually spoke one step ahead of him: "Uncle Xia, are you curious, how did I 'see' you just now?"

"Ah...ah? Yes, that's right." Xia Tianhuo was startled. This child seemed to be able to read minds: "I heard Zhen'er say that you can't see with your eyes, but when I came over just now , did you really 'see' me? And when you got in the car, you were very natural and didn't need much support."

"Little Apple" smiled and said: "Because although I can't see with my eyes, my ears are very good. I heard your footsteps coming towards us, and Sister Zhen'er called you, so I looked at you." I also heard the sound from your seat just now, and knowing that you were turning around, I guessed that you might have heard Sister Zhener and Nana say that I couldn't see it and that you had questions to ask."

Yang Zhener couldn't help but laugh and said: "Big guy, you are so big. When you move, the chair will scream!"

Xia Tianhuo raised his hand and flicked his cousin's forehead, causing the latter to scream.

Li Yang, who was sitting in the co-pilot, also turned around and said with a smile: "Since I learned Mr. Xiang's training method of 'sending objects' and having 'Jin Shining' by my side, 'Little Apple' has really become more mature in the past few months." She has been able to practice using her "ears" instead of her "eyes". During this time, she was walking in the community and I followed her. She could now walk normally without relying on a blind stick. Wherever there was someone walking around, there was something there. , she can judge by hearing. Not to mention at home, she can move much more freely than me in many cases. But for the time being, she can only move in familiar areas, and when she leaves the community, the terrain outside is complicated. , I'm not at ease.

"Honestly, when Mr. Xiang told us about this training method of 'residing objects', I really didn't take it seriously. But I didn't expect that the effect would be so obvious on 'Little Apple'. I later found out Many relevant materials, documents, and papers do not understand what this principle is.

"I also talked to some of my old classmates in medical school. Although they gave some guesses, they were basically psychological. They thought it was a kind of self-suggestion and stimulation of potential. But I always feel that it should be It’s more than just a psychological impact.”

Xiang Kun, who was driving, said with a smile: "The main reason is that 'Little Apple' has very strong hearing, so the effect is very obvious. You see, I also practice, but my effect is very limited."

"That's right! Nana and I have also practiced, but we have basically no effect!" Yang Zhen'er also said.

After getting to know "Little Apple", they also learned that "Little Apple" under the guidance of Xiang Kun performs a kind of "object sensing" exercise similar to meditation. By relying on this exercise, they can further improve their already strong hearing. and play to make various judgments.

Of course, Xiang Kun has explained specifically about "Qing Zhu Wu", "Super Connected Wu", and other things from another world in dreams and perceptions, and the connection established with "Golden Shining", " "Little Apple" will naturally not disclose it to anyone.

Xia Tianhuo turned around after getting the answer, but he still had some questions in his heart.

"Little Apple's" answer just now still cannot explain some questions. For example, even if "Little Apple" heard from the sound of the seat that he turned around, how could she be sure that he was going to ask her that question? Normally, it is very likely that he is talking to his cousin Yang Zhener or Tang Baona, right?

And...why did "Little Apple" call him "uncle"? He is obviously of the same generation as Lao Xia and Yang Zhener! They were called "Sister Bing" and "Sister Zhen'er"!

Just as Xia Tianhuo was wondering why he was inexplicably a generation older, Yang Zhener stood up, pulled the back of the chair in front of him, and whispered to the back of his head: "Big guy, you look like you have changed." Less?"

Xia Tianhuo helplessly put his hand on Yang Zhener's head and pushed her back to the seat. He said angrily: "Yang Laosan, if you have something to say, just say it! The car is so big, and you talk so sneakily." , everyone can hear it!”

"Hey! Aren't I... taking care of your emotions? Then I'll ask you directly, right? Your kidnapping... didn't bring you any psychological trauma or psychological shadow, right?" Yang Zhener asked.

"Yes, I have!"

"Huh?" Yang Zhener was stunned. Although he complained about this silly big cousin every day, in fact, the relationship between their brothers and sisters was quite good, but they didn't want the "big guy" to be harmed at all.

"Now I have lost my craving for cigarettes. I don't want to smoke at all. I even smelled the cigarette smoke and have no idea. When I got off the boat, I asked the Myanmar police for a cigarette. I took a puff and felt that there was no smell at all. I suddenly quit smoking," Xia Tianhuo said.

This was indeed a very strange "side effect" he got after the kidnapping case was over.

Yang Zhener breathed a sigh of relief and nodded: "No wonder you look fat."

"Each other."

"I didn't!" Yang Zhener glared at her cousin, but she was rare and did not dwell on this topic, but immediately continued to ask: "By the way, if you haven't suffered any psychological trauma, just give it to us Tell me how you escaped from the kidnappers? I heard that one of the kidnappers on the boat suddenly realized his conscience and killed the other kidnappers and rescued you? Could it be that the kidnapper wanted to be treated leniently and take credit for his work? It's all on you, but there were actually other heroes who saved you, but they just ran away after finishing their work?"

Xia Tianhuo originally had a dark look on his face, but when he heard the last sentence, he couldn't help laughing: "It's okay, go away? Yang Laosan, have you watched too many martial arts movies? And that's... On the sea, where can I float when I'm done with my clothes? Is it possible to clear the waves with my red palms?"

"Can you tell me what the situation is? There were other people there when I called before. I don't want to be too gossipy. Now that you are here to relax, let's satisfy our curiosity!" Yang Zhen Son said.

"What does 'we' mean? It's just you!" Xia Tianhuo said.

"Hey! Let me tell you something! Anyway, you are free when you are idle. There is no gossip to listen to. I get motion sickness easily. When I get motion sickness, I may vomit. If you sit in front of me, you have to think carefully..."

"Yang Laosan, you... okay, I'll just say it briefly."

"Tell me first, why did you call Lao Xia instead of my aunt and uncle to ask for the ransom? Do you think Lao Xia can save you? Don't you know she was in the mountains of Haixi Province at the time?" Yang Zhener immediately asked questions excitedly.

Xia Tianhuo subconsciously glanced at Lao Xia, who was also sitting in the second row. The latter was scrolling through his mobile phone with his head down, seemingly not interested in these topics at all.

"Because I know that the person the kidnappers originally wanted to kidnap was not me. Their original target may have died due to an accident. I was just kidnapped by them 'by the way' and relying on me to extort money was just their temporary plan. From what the kidnappers said With some of their words and the attitude they showed, I guessed that they were probably a group of desperadoes carrying human lives. Regardless of whether they could get the ransom or not, the possibility of breaking up the vote was very high, so I wanted to use some of the things I knew. The information was hinted through the ransom call as much as possible, and I think the only one who can understand what I hinted at is Lao Xia..."

Xia Tianhuo's main purpose of coming to Haixi Province this time was to seek help and confusion from Lao Xia, so he simply followed Yang Zhener's questions and began to trace the process of his kidnapping and escape in Myanmar.
