Now I deliberately fell into his arms, and scratched my Adam's apple with my fingertips: "Why don't you dare to use your crazy energy in the previous life?" He clasped my wrist bones with his backhand and pressed me against the Buddhist hall, with sandalwood dyeing the tail of his eyes red: "Now that I have been trapped, I should show you the real mad dog tonight." Later, when I was in the phoenix crown, he tore open the hypocritical skin and pressed forward step by step: "In my next life, you should have been my bird in the cage."
