Chapter 42: A Pack of Cats Strikes
In the middle of the night, about two or three o'clock.
The mountains are full of trees, and the young leaves that are green or pale green during the day are now pitch black, surrounding this empty valley.
They didn't know how big the valley was, and they had come here when they came out of that terrifying tomb. The terrain here is quite flat, and there are not as many bamboos as in other places, so Gu Yan decided to rest here.
Got a cat? I don't know.
This is just what the ghosts said, and at the moment they are waiting in the dark for the arrival of those night cats.
The fish and fish bones were placed in the same position as last night, and Gu Yan sat in the place where the ghost sat last night, lying on his lap and pretending to be asleep listening to the sounds around him, but he was thinking about a lot of things in his heart, and he missed his parents very much, and he didn't know where they were doing now.
The wind blew the bamboo, and slowly the wind blew on the back and back of his neck, and his hair was also blown by the night wind, which made him feel comfortable.
He suddenly fell in love with such a night wind, such a wild night. If there was no family mission, how he would have wanted to live in such a quiet nature.
However, he still has to face the reality!
Zhu Wen returned to the tent and did not sleep, listening to the movement outside. I haven't heard a sound other than the wind blowing bamboo for a long time, and I doubt the authenticity of the ghost's words in my heart. I didn't dare to really sleep, and I was afraid that what the ghost said was true.
bored, sitting there thinking nonsense, slowly thinking about Li Yixin's affairs, and became happy. In the end, I thought of Li Yixin's two completely different attitudes towards himself and Gu Yan, and he was inexplicably irritable.
got up and climbed out of the tent, wanting to once again confirm what Gu Yan thought about Li Yixin, or to beg Gu Yan to help him.
As soon as Zhu Wen climbed out of the tent, he was waved back by Gu Yan and was not allowed to come out. Zhu Wen was very annoyed, and hoped in his heart that those night cats would come sooner, and he could continue to sleep after catching the night cats, so that he didn't have to think like this, and his heart would not be so sad.
Yang Erwa was about to fall asleep with her head propped up, and Sun Da was sitting in the tent and was already asleep.
The golden bell was asleep, very quiet, making an even breathing sound, and she didn't seem to be scared at all.
Sister Yang is sometimes very envious of the golden bell, there are people like Sun Da who care about and take care of her, although Sun Da doesn't know anything except eating, after all, Sun Da's heart is not bad, where would he be lonely and lonely. With his twin brother, there are some things that he can't tell his younger brother, and he can't understand many of the emotions of the female son.
Sister Yang glanced at the golden bell and smiled bitterly, she was also very sleepy, and she couldn't bear to wake her up when she saw Li Yixin sitting there struggling and napping, she quietly watched to see if there was any trouble.
Sister Yang sat there thinking about why the ghost didn't allow Li Yixin to sleep, and what was going on during the day, and she wanted Li Yixin to help catch the cat tonight. She also wanted to help, but the ghost didn't call her, thinking that he had arranged it.
Why don't you let Li Yixin sleep? Sister Yang couldn't figure it out.
waited silently with their own hearts, and Sister Yang began to fall asleep while holding on.
"Meow—"
There was a cat's bark, far away, far away.
No one heard it, only Li Yixin, who was sleeping, moved, but did not wake up.
The ghost man had been hiding in the cracks of the rocks below the cliff for hours, and he barely moved when mosquitoes bit him.
He couldn't hear the cat's voice, and he didn't have as good hearing as Li Yixin. He could only see that there seemed to be something not far from the depths of the bamboo forest, picked up the stone and threw it at Gu Yan, Gu Yan who squinted his eyes was awakened, stood up and ran towards Li Yixin.
"Heart, Heart"
Gu Yan squatted outside the tent and shouted, he was a man and it was not easy to get in, and Sister Yang, who was sleeping in a daze, was woken up by Gu Yan's shouts several times.
"I heard it, Gu Yan, I woke them up, you go and wake them up."
Gu Yan heard the answer and hurried to the vermilion thread.
Two minutes later, they all stood by the tent, Zhu Wen arranged for Sun Da, Jin Bell and Yang Erwa to squat in the center of the tent, Li Yixin rubbed his eyes and walked to Gu Yan's side, groggy, his head was also very painful, his body was soft, and he didn't want to move at all.
Gu Yan pulled her to sit down and said softly: "Yixin, pretend to sleep, remember not to fall asleep." Come, take the grilled fish. ”
Li Yixin put the grilled fish in his waist pocket, and Gu Yan continued: "When the cat comes, you will go to their side, tear the fish and throw it in the air, and I will go over there."
Gu Yan pointed to the side, opposite the vermilion.
Li Yixin nodded drowsily, put the fish bones in his pocket, and said, "Do you see there?"
Li Yixin looked at the place where the ancient saying pointed, the ghost ghost was seriously looking at the bamboo forest opposite, Li Yixin nodded again, and the ancient saying said: "Throw the grilled fish there as much as possible, the ghost ghost will kill those cats."
Li Yixin couldn't bear it again, and pretended to sleep on his stomach.
"Uhhh
"Meow—"
Very sleepy, Li Yixin still heard the cat's meow clearly, getting closer and closer to them, that is, coming out of the bamboo forest behind them, Li Yixin whispered: "Brother Gu Yan, it's really a cat, it's already here."
Gu Yan hesitated, but he didn't doubt Li Yixin's hearing, and Gu Yan didn't hear the cat's bark at all.
He raised his hand high, the ghost nodded at him, and then pretended to sleep again, and Li Yixin also tilted his head and began to pretend to sleep.
The night wind was not so violent, and everyone looked at Gu Yan there, not daring to be distracted at all.
Zhu Wen and Sun Da had already prepared dry and easy to light firewood, afraid that the dew at night would make the match unable to ignite, so Zhu Wen chose some particularly dry firewood and put it in the tent, and the firewood was placed at his feet, just waiting for the ancient saying that he would burn the fire to the maximum.
There was a small flame burning at the feet of Gu Yan and Li Yixin, only a little bit of warmth. As the old saying goes, keep the fire burning, even a little, just a little dry firewood to ignite a raging fire.
"Ahh
The cat's meow was closer, and the ghost saw a lot of cats of all sizes coming out of the bamboo forest, all black in the night light.
Like a small black creature wriggling towards them, the ghost held the peachwood sword tightly in the palm of his hand, waiting for the ancient saying to lure the night cat to him, and he could kill them one by one with the peachwood sword in his hand
The golden bell bit her lip and watched those large and small cats appear less than five steps behind Gu Yan, under the slight moonlight, wild cats were big and small, some cats were gray, some cats were flowers, and more cats were black, as black as the mountains in the night, blacker than the gray at the bottom of the pot.
The big cat, the size of a three-month-old dog, was so big that it seemed to be unable to walk, and it slowly walked at the end with its wriggling bloated body.
In the middle are some medium-sized cats that are longer and run a little faster than the big cats.
In front are some small cats, the most responsive, running at the front, without any sound at all.
The sound of the wind blowing the bamboo, is getting weaker and weaker.
Seeing so many cats Yang Damei was also frightened, although country cats are very common, but she has never seen such cats.
wanted to shout, but was pulled by Yang Erwa.
Zhu Wen and they looked at those nasty, seemingly innumerable wild cats, slowly approaching Gu Yan and going to Gu Yan and Li Yixin.
Zhu Wen looked at Li Yixin, his eyes were unwilling to blink, if Li Yixin was in any danger, he would be the first to rush up to protect her.
Li Yixin was still lying on her stomach and pretending to be asleep, she didn't dare to take her face out. Judging from the meows she heard, there were more kittens than she had seen in any pet store, and the presence of many cats was also very scary.
"Brother Gu Yan, here."
Li Yixin whispered.
"Don't move!"
Last night I put grilled fish and fish bones at the feet of the old saying, and all the cats wanted to find fish here again to eat.
The temptation of fish to cats is quite great, especially the fish that is roasted and browned, how can these greedy cats not be fooled?
The cat slowly crawled to Gu Yan's feet, without a little sound, Gu Yan lay on his lap and looked through the gap between his bent knees, and saw a lot of cats, as if they wanted to surround him and eat him, his scalp was numb.
After about ten seconds, those cats didn't find anything to eat, but they smelled the smell of fish in Gu Yan and Li Yixin's pockets, and pounced on Li Yixin and Gu Yan one by one.
"Ahh
Li Yixin screamed, stood up and ran forward, Gu Yan also stood up, and saw Li Yixin running in the direction he originally planned to go, stunned for a second, he ran to the opposite position of Li Yixin, standing a little in front of them.
Zhu Wen looked at Li Yixin standing alone in that position, anxious.
Gu Yan didn't hesitate to hurriedly throw the fish bone in the direction of the ghost, shouting as he threw it: "Throw it quickly, don't let the cat bite you!"
Li Yixin watched the cat crawl on his body, his back and legs and shoes everywhere, and he was about to climb to his waist, Li Yixin trembled, and threw the fish out tremblingly.
I was scared, so I only threw the fish at my feet, and the cat jumped off Li Yixin as soon as he saw the fish, and several cats jumped over to grab the fish to eat.
After being stunned for a while, Li Yixin ran to Gu Yan without hesitation.
As soon as Li Yixin moved his steps, the fish was eaten by the cats, and after eating, he went to Li Yixin, and gradually caught up with her.
"Throw, throw the fish into the sky."
The ghost ghost shouted to Li Yixin, and when he saw that the time was almost up, he jumped out of the crack in the stone, and quickly took the peach wood sword shell to his right hand, only to see a burst of white light flash, and the ghost ghost had already run to Gu Yan's side, slashing towards the cats who had not reacted to eating fish.
Zhu Wen and they were all stunned, the cat jumped into the sky to compete for the fish bones thrown by the ancient sayings, the ghost saw it and cut the body of those cats, and the cat that had just come into contact with the fish bones was instantly killed by the ghost's white shiny sword, and the cat screamed and fell to the ground.
Looking at this bloody scene, watching the ghost kill the cat so quickly, Li Yixin was so scared that he didn't dare to move again. The cat was getting closer and closer to her, but she didn't react at all.
"Throw it away, do you want to be eaten by these disgusting cats?!"
