Chapter 469: Is There a Gap?
"Squeak ββ!"
Seeing the rising sun, Zuo Yang could already be sure that he was safe for the time being, so he opened the door of the house with confidence and walked out.
And then......
He immediately gained a new understanding of the destructive power of the wild cats.
When he looked out from the house just now, he only saw the scene in the courtyard, the yard was full of broken tiles, the soil in a small flower bed seemed to have been ploughed, all the flowers and plants were basically uprooted, and in addition, all kinds of clods of dust seemed to have just been hit by a violent sandstorm, covering the whole old yard in an earthy gray.
But now standing outside and looking at it, it's a different story.
I saw that drunk on the security door of the room where Hua Jia Nian was located, on the windowsill, and even on the brick and stone walls that those wild cats could reach, they were densely covered with claw marks, and those who didn't know thought that dozens of craftsmen had carved here all night.
And that's not even the most frightening.
The most frightening thing is that the original roof with dense tiles, there are not many tiles left, and now there is only a hollow prototype of a roof made of wooden beams and collars......
"Squeak ββ!"
Just as Zuo Yang was glad that the sun was rising at the right time, the doors of the three rooms downstairs also opened one after another, and it was Buya, Buya's father and aunt.
The three guys also didn't close their eyes all night, until all the sounds just now disappeared, they cautiously leaned to the window to look into the courtyard, just saw Zuo Yang standing in the mess, so they had the courage to come out of it to ask about the situation.
"Big brother, this is ......"
Buya was the first to come out, and as soon as he walked out, he was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he didn't know what to say, but opened his mouth to show an exaggerated expression.
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Buya's father and aunt were also in a similar state, looking around at the surrounding situation, making up what happened to this courtyard last night.
"I didn't prepare enough last night, so I let it escape."
Zuo Yang didn't feel embarrassed, just smiled and said lightly.
"This ...... Master, if it escapes, will it ever come back? β
Buya's father came back to his senses, thought for a moment, and asked a crucial question.
The yard has become like this, he can rest again, as long as the money can solve the problem, it is not a big problem, but if that thing is not completely removed, the old man is the real big problem......
"Definitely, and only tonight."
Zuo Yang nodded and said, he was holding the pigtail in his hand.
"Tonight?"
Buya's father immediately showed a worried look on his face, looked around at the messy scene in the yard, and said, "Master, the house has become like this, I'm afraid there is no way to complete the repair today, if such a thing happens again, I'm afraid it won't be able to support it, right?" β
"Don't worry, I've got a plan."
Zuo Yang laughed confidently and said, "The house doesn't need to be repaired for the time being, and it's not too late to repair it slowly when this matter is over, what you have to do now is to follow my arrangement yesterday and continue to find someone to deal with the problem of the old well behind the yard, remember to dig it up thoroughly and see what is inside." β
"But ......"
Buya's father looked at Zuo Yang puzzled, he wanted to say that according to the current situation, it was obvious that repairing the house was a much higher priority than dealing with the old well, right?
But as soon as he spoke, Zuo Yang had already interrupted him and continued: "Just do what I say, besides, you have to prepare some more things for me, with these things, I will definitely be able to solve the matter here tonight." β
"What?"
Buya's father asked curiously.
"So ...... so"
Zuo Yang hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled mysteriously.
β¦β¦
It's one o'clock in the morning again, and it's the hour when the yin qi is the heaviest.
After a long day of rest and preparation, the old yard was not reinforced, renovated or renovated except for the removal of broken tiles and dirt everywhere, but the yard was full of flower pots planted with a green plant.
Zuo Yang was still sitting cross-legged on the cushion in the center of the room, looking through his phone.
But this time, he didn't close the door, not even the window, which was a bit like inviting you into the urn.
Finally.
"Jingle Bell ββ!"
With the crisp sound of wind chimes, a large group of green eyes appeared in the courtyard again, and the fish and the wild cats did not break their promises, and they came again.
A few wild cats standing at the front were hunched over and tentatively approaching the house, but they were only getting closer.
"Meow ββ!"
Suddenly, they let out a strange cry as if they had been electrocuted, and immediately retreated.
If you look closely, you will find that there is already a trace of water on the ground at the entrance of this room, and if you smell it again, you can smell a very pungent smell.
This water trail is nothing else, but a very common thing in life - wind oil essence!
Wind oil essence is a magical thing, it can not only make those female anchors cry while scratching and spasming, but also can exude the most unbearable smell of cats, so if domestic cats have the habit of urinating, scratching, biting, and drilling, the owner can sprinkle some wind oil essence in a fixed place, so as to help cats develop a good habit.
This was exactly one of the things that Zuo Yang's father had prepared for him in the morning.
"Huh."
Seeing this scene, Zuo Yang smiled with satisfaction, put away his mobile phone and stood up, he knew that as long as these wild cats could no longer pose a threat to him, the cunning "Wei" would definitely not be able to hide anymore, and he had to show up.
Really.
"Meowββ! A bunch of useless things, just a stinky guy, what's there to be afraid of!? β
A girl's voice came from the rooftop, and then a dark shadow came down from above, and came in front of the wild cats with graceful cat steps.
Zuo Yang also opened his eyes wide before he finally saw the true body of this "ι", it was indeed a cat, and it was a very rare black wild cat that could completely blend in with the night.
In the legends of the Celestial Empire, the pure black wild cat is an evil spirit animal, it can see the shaking of the soul when it walks in the night, and if the soul of the deceased person encounters the black cat, it will be used as prey to prey.
Therefore, if there are other animals in the mourning hall during the vigil, if they only need to drive them away and not let them come into contact with the corpse to prevent terrible things from happening, if there is a black cat in the mourning hall, it is a truly desperate thing.
"You're the one who behaves badly?"
Seeing this black cat, Zuo Yang couldn't help but be a little surprised.
It stands to reason that after the vast majority of souls encounter a black cat, they usually can't ask for the fate of being preded, but this black cat is combined with the soul of the person to form a "ι", this probability is only afraid that it is not an exaggeration to call it a once-in-a-millennium encounter, right?
So, what is so special about such a "black catfish" compared to ordinary "black cats"?
Combined with the different abilities of the two, Zuo Yang felt that this thing had to have at least two abilities at the same time: one was the ability that "Wei" itself had, even if Zuo Yang couldn't fully explain it for the time being; The other is the ability of the black cat itself to devour souls.
Anyway, this "ι²" is definitely rarer and more powerful than ordinary "ι²"......
The other side.
"You opened the door this time, did you already know that it was not my opponent after last night's incident, and you plan to admit defeat directly?"
Looking at Zuo Yang, the black cat shook his beard very vividly, curled the corners of his mouth like a human and showed a sneering expression, and said to Zuo Yang with disdain.
"Hehe, you're thinking too much, you're going to do it tonight."
Zuo Yang was not surprised at all by this, but just gave the same sneer.
"Really? It seems that you still haven't figured out the situation, and if you had listened to my advice and left here obediently, I wouldn't have wanted to hurt your life, but you have repeatedly ruined me and done good things, so you can't blame me. β
The black cat paced back and forth gracefully, but its voice gradually became cold, and it shouted, "Little ones, give it to me, shred it!" β
However.
ββ¦β¦β
Originally, it responded to every call, but this time it did not receive any response from the group of wild cats, and none of the wild cats rushed up to fight Zuo Yang after hearing the order.
βοΌβ
The black cat looked back puzzled.
I saw that the group of wild cats it brought with me didn't know when it had been "broken", some of them were licking and biting the green plants in the suddenly extra flower pots, some were lying on the ground and rubbing their faces and chins, some were lying on the ground and rolling around like a mess of mud, and some were even scratching and scratching something invisible......
But they have one thing in common, that is, their eyes are full of intoxication and trance, as if they have fallen into a paradise from which they cannot extricate themselves.
"It's ......"
Before the black cat understood what was going on, Zuo Yang had already given a reasonable explanation with a smile: "Hehe, those plants are called catnip, and now they are addicted, and they don't know what they are doing, if you want to rely on them to deal with me, I'm afraid it won't work." β
This is another thing that Zuo Yang's father helped prepare.
As for why this black cat was not affected by catnip, Zuo Yang felt that it might have something to do with its identity, after all, it was now a cat, not an ordinary cat.
"You! How can there be such a shameless person as you in the world!? β
The black cat has a human soul in its body, and naturally it will also have many memories of the soul, obviously no stranger to catnip, so he immediately scolded angrily, "I'll ask you, do you dare not play this bad trick, and fight with me with your real ability?" β
"Hehe, don't dare."
Zuo Yang shook his head and smiled.
"You!"
The black cat already knew last night that Zuo Yang didn't eat this set of agitation methods, and there was no way at the moment, his green eyes narrowed slightly, and the next moment, he directly turned into a black shadow and rushed to the outside of the courtyard wall, shouting fiercely while running, "I don't want that wisp of doppelganger, just kill it if you want to, anyway, that old man won't live for a few days, when the time comes, when his soul leaves his body, if you have the ability, you will always guard his corpse and lock his soul, otherwise as long as I can exist for a day, I will never let you and them have good fruit to eat, you wait for me! β
I have to admit that the wisdom of this fish is really not to be underestimated, even if it has been bluffed by Zuo Yang before, at this time, it can still stop the loss in time, so as not to completely put yourself into it tonight, which is what many living people can't do.
But.
"Still want to go? I'm afraid it's not that easy! β
Zuo Yang obviously expected this "Wei" to make such a move, only to see that he suddenly pinched a finger very quickly and pointed outside.
"Buzz ββ!"
A red circle of light suddenly appeared from the ground that completely surrounded the entire old courtyard, and this light was even the neon sign of the city.
"Bang!"
The black cat had already jumped out of the courtyard wall, but when its body was still in the air, it was directly hit back by the sudden red light.
This is exactly the formation that Zuo Yang laid out in advance.
Using his own essence blood and mixed cinnabar, he used the ink fountain that Rang Buya's father had found for him before, and drew such a red line around the corner of the entire old courtyard.
This red line is usually not visible, and it will not have any effect on ordinary people, but once Zuo Yang urges it, it can generate an enchantment that draws the ground as a prison, and all demons and monsters cannot enter or get out...... However, this enchantment did not last long, and only when he was sure that he could attack this beast, Zuo Yang would urge, and it was therefore because of the threat of this group of wild cats last night that he did not rush to urge it, otherwise it would be easy to say that it would be a waste of essence and blood, so that this monster would not dare to enter the old courtyard rashly again, and that would be difficult to do.
"Meow ββ!"
This time it hit a wall, obviously the black cat panicked, and after it let out a strange scream, it had no time to say those nutritious nonsense to Zuo Yang, and hurriedly changed directions to continue to try to break through.
"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"
It was fast, scurrying around like a black arrow in the barrier, but every time it reached the edge of the barrier, it was suddenly hit back by a sudden red light.
However, after these collisions, it finally found a glimmer of life: "Hey, there seems to be a gap in the direction of the gate!" β
