Crazy Nezha

The husky had a bad feeling, but then realized it was just overthinking it! Maybe it had a cold recently and was just smelling the wrong thing.

He heard his second uncle shouting from inside the house, and when he heard the dog barking, he pushed open the gate to the courtyard.

Uncle looked puzzled: "Whose dog is howling like that in the middle of the day? Hey, Tianbao, what's that dog?"

Li Tianbao said with a smile, "Second Uncle, look what this is?"

"Flying Maotai sauce! Are you crazy?!" Second Uncle looked at the wine, his eyes almost watering.

"What are you going to do with all this stuff??"

"Drink it!" Li Tianbao said bluntly.

"Let's have a good celebration at noon. I bought this dog. It can stay in the yard. No objections, right?" Li Tianbao said with a smile.

The husky sticks out its tongue, pants, and wags its tail vigorously, giving off a lovable and intelligent vibe.

My second uncle patted the dog's head and asked, "Hey, this dog's not bad. How much did you pay for it?"

"550!"

Uncle squatted down and interacted with the dog. Xiaotian was no ordinary dog ​​after all; he knew how to please Uncle and was very clever!

The Celestial Dog felt that the uncle was very gentle and a kind-hearted person, and that it was really lucky for it and Leopard Head to be in this home.

Li Tianbao could tell that his second uncle really liked the dog.

"Tianbao, you bought something so expensive..." Second Uncle looked at the wine, feeling it was a bit wasteful; this kid didn't earn money easily. "I'll transfer the money to you for the wine later. Young people should keep some money in their hands; don't spend it recklessly in the future."

"You should save your money for retirement."

"I'm raising a scrawny old man." Second Uncle smirked.

"Wow, it smells so good! What dish did Second Uncle make?" Li Tianbao stepped aside from his Second Uncle and walked into the yard.

The husky followed them in. "Xiaotian, Leopard Head is in the water tank in the yard. Come on, let's feed him."

"Mmm-hmm-hmm-hmm!" The husky ran happily towards the water tank, shouting, "Leopard Head, my good bro, I'm here!"

The husky gripped the edge of the water tank with its two front paws. "Where's Leopard Head?"

Li Tianbao looked at the water tank. The bass was gone? Li Jiawang saw fish scales and intestines in the trash can... His heart raced!

The husky sniffed again, then suddenly turned its head. The man and the dog stared at each other, both looking shocked!

"Go check the kitchen!"

Li Tianbao frowned, strode to the kitchen, and saw a large steamer on the stove, steaming and emitting a fragrant aroma.

My second uncle followed me in calmly.

The husky stammered, "No way! No way! It's probably a king crab in there! Not my brother!"

"Third Master, you said Leopard Head is perfectly safe at your Second Uncle's house! Perfectly safe!"

"Third Master, say something! Speak!"

Li Tianbao bit his lip, lifted the pot lid, and saw the sea bass lying on the plate with its belly split open. Several slits were cut into its body, and thin slices of ginger were stuffed inside. Its tail was colorful, and a rich aroma wafted out.

"Leopard Head!" Li Tianbao froze, then turned around and roared, "Yin Jianshe!!"

The second uncle was displeased that his nephew addressed him by his given name so directly. He frowned and snapped, "What nonsense are you spouting!"

"You steamed my fish?"

The second uncle's expression was complicated, but then he met his nephew's gaze with a firm look and remained silent.

Li Tianbao raised his voice: "Answer me!" "Answer me!" "Speak!!"

Second Uncle said loudly, "Yes, I killed the fish."

"Um?!"

The husky's hind legs trembled, and it backed away a few steps to keep its distance from the man; it was terrified.

This world is too crazy; he wants to go back to Heaven.

Li Tianbao lowered his eyes and remained silent, quietly watching the fragrant Leopard Head fish. He took out two bags of fish food from his pocket, looking somewhat sad.

"Leopard Head came to our house but didn't even get a decent meal before he was steamed."

The second uncle looked concerned and his voice softened, "Tianbao, if I don't kill that fish, it'll die sooner or later anyway. It's a mass-farmed bass. We don't have an air pump, and we have to control the water temperature."

The husky lay on the stove, sniffed the fish, drooled, and barked a few times, which sounded like dog barking to my second uncle.

But to Li Tianbao, it sounded like a mournful wail, and very sad.

Li Tianbao stroked the dog's head, his tone forlorn, "If I talk to a fish, in my second uncle's eyes, I'm a lunatic. He killed the fish because he wanted me to get better, so I can't blame him for it."

The husky roared, "He's not a perch! He's the amphibious supervisor of the Water Palace under the Goddess of Lightning on the East Road of Penglai!"

"He was a wine official at the Heavenly Peach Banquet, a greeter at the Dan Yuan Assembly, and a messenger at the Four Seas Enlightenment Assembly! He held many positions and dedicated half his life to them, only to be banished to the mortal realm for making a small mistake!"

In the kitchen, the husky started barking wildly and howling:

"Leopard Head! We were banished to the mortal realm together! We promised to help each other and assist the Third Prince!"

"I came to this mortal world not asking for anything else, just wanting a home."

"Now we have a home! But you're gone! Aaaaaah!"

"He's my brother! He's my brother, the brother of my 'Howling Celestial Dog'!"

Li Tianbao sighed and said softly, "Don't be sad, I feel bad too."

The second uncle sighed heavily and observed silently from the side. He realized that his nephew was truly heartbroken and it seemed he wouldn't be able to get over it anytime soon.

"I didn't kill your fish! Tianbao! Your second uncle didn't kill your fish!"

Li Tianbao paused, turning back to look at his second uncle. "Didn't kill them? They're all steamed."

"I bought another one! This is another sea bass!"

My second uncle's voice softened, "Before killing the fish, I called Dr. Wang to ask for his opinion! He was worried that killing the fish would upset you and worsen your condition. And sure enough, look at the mess you made just now!"

Li Tianbao asked, "Where's the fish?"

Second Uncle turned and went back into the bedroom. He quickly returned and stood in the courtyard. "Come out and take a look!" He was holding a washbasin, and the spotted bass were swimming happily.

"Third Prince, Third Prince, I'm here!" came the leopard-headed voice from the basin.

Li Tianbao apologized, "I'm sorry, Second Uncle, I got a little agitated just now."

My second uncle slammed the basin down on the ground. His previously composed face turned worried as he asked with concern, "Don't give me that sweet talk. Were you just talking to a dog?"

"Let's not talk about dogs for now."

Li Tianbao opened the fish food package, poured it into the basin, and watched the bass eat it heartily, feeling very happy.

The second uncle was speechless for a moment. He noticed that the dog was barking at the fish and sticking out its tongue, slurping up water from the basin.

Li Tianbao looked serious.

"Second Uncle, there are some things I still need to verify, but I'll have the answer soon. I might not be hallucinating, nor am I mentally ill."

"Woof! Woof!"

My second uncle's eyes trembled. "You're not hallucinating about this dog too, are you?"

Li Tianbao nodded: "He said he was the Celestial Dog."

My second uncle said, "Dr. Wang is right. Your illness needs to be treated slowly. We'll take good care of the dog and the fish."

Li Tianbao picked up the basin, poured the bass into the large water vat in the yard, held the edge of the vat with both hands, and muttered to himself. The big dog also pawed at the water vat and barked.

Uncle's eyelids twitched as he read this, and he sighed, "Let's listen to Dr. Wang, don't go to work for now, the family can support you."

Li Tianbao's mother is the director of a top-tier hospital, and his father is the captain of the public security bureau. His family has already bought him a house for his wedding—a 120-square-meter apartment in the upscale Hengbiyuan residential complex, incredibly impressive. Logically, he should be entitled to a period of leisure.

"Tianbao, have you thought about lying down?" Second Uncle asked seriously.

Li Tianbao said, "I'll ask the boss for leave later. Second Uncle, someone more talented than me works even harder than me, what right do I have to lie down?"

The Celestial Hound said, "Third Master, you've been influenced by this era. Be yourself! Be your true self!"

From the basin, Leopard Head chimed in, "Third Prince, what Xiaotian said is absolutely right!"

These words surprised Li Tianbao. He looked at his two companions and smiled faintly.

My second uncle said, "In this life, everyone should respect their own heart at least once. Let's have fun for half a year. I have no objection to you raising fish and dogs. Wash your hands and get ready to eat. I'll go cook a dish."

Li Tianbao asked, "Didn't you say my mom was coming over at noon? Aren't we waiting for her?"

The second uncle's voice came from the kitchen, "Your mother just called. She had something come up and has to go to Zhengcheng to give a lecture. She didn't answer your calls."

Li Tianbao opened his phone and found several missed calls from his mother and several from his second uncle. He sent a message back to his mother.

"Mom, I'm doing well at my second uncle's house. I went to Dr. Wang for therapy today, and he said I don't need to be hospitalized and that it's not a big problem."

I quickly received a message from my mother: "Dr. Wang contacted me, son. You'll be fine. Believe in yourself."

Soon, another message arrived: "Don't let your second uncle drink."

Okay, don't worry.

Li Tianbao's lock screen phone.

About twenty minutes later, my second uncle brought the dishes to the courtyard.

Li Tianbao helped set out the bowls and chopsticks, put out the Feisheng Maotai sauce, took two wine glasses, and brought over a small stool.

Under the pomegranate tree in the courtyard, on the small dining table, there is a plate of cucumber salad, a plate of ants climbing a tree (a dish of stir-fried vegetables), a plate of steamed sea bass, and a small bowl of seaweed and egg drop soup.

Li Tianbao said, "Second Uncle, here's some Maojiang sauce for you; it's a gift from me."

Second Uncle's eyes narrowed into hearts as he swallowed hard. "We'll drink it again during the New Year, we'll drink it again during the New Year."

Li Tianbao could tell that his second uncle wanted to drink, but he was reluctant to! So, Li Tianbao simply opened the bottle and filled his second uncle's glass!

"Second Uncle, drink! You just said that everyone should respect their own heart at least once in their life!"

"Awesome!" Second Uncle shouted.
