Chapter 313: The Grey Cat
When Natsuki heard this, he stopped what he was going to go. He came here not only to bring Hoshino Aika out, but also to know why the cat demon clan rejects the outside world so much? Also, since you exclude the outside world, why do you have to send a cat demon every once in a while to distribute Magatama everywhere?
These are all things that Natsuki finds interesting, so naturally he is quite concerned.
After hearing the pink kimono cat-ear girl say this, Natsuki also stood there and continued to listen to her say some of the information she wanted.
"Meow-" The gray kitten nodded weakly, indicating that he knew that he was wrong, and waited until the pink kimono cat ear lady finally let go of his ears, and then it shook off the hair on its body and threw the dust out of its body, of course, because it was full of mud, it was too much, so no matter how it shook it, how to fry the hair could not remove all the dust from the body, and suddenly the whole cat was a little wilted.
In the end, the pink kimono cat's ear girl couldn't stand it anymore, and directly covered the cat's body with a dusting spell, and it immediately became clean again.
Natsuki looked at the cat that suddenly became snow-white, feeling a little speechless, just now he thought that this cat was gray hair, but he didn't expect it to be white? It's no wonder that the teacher is so angry, how crazy does this have to be to dye all the white hair gray?
Probably because the scar was healed and forgot the pain, the little white cat immediately spread its legs and ran away, and the teacher suddenly grabbed its tail angrily: "Where are you going!" It's dark now, and I'm still running outside, I'm going to die! ”
The little white cat also replied unconvinced: "I don't come out of the enchantment!" And what's wrong with getting out of the enchantment, it's so empty outside, there's no way there can be anyone! Natsuki listened and nodded, this place is indeed quite far from the residential area, and because of the spell, no one will approach here.
The cat-eared lady suddenly jumped to her feet angrily, and her tail stood up: "Hoshino Silver!" Go back and be confined with your sister! ”
Hoshino Silver? Confinement? Natsuki's heart moved, and he probably guessed that this white cat should have something to do with Hoshino Aihua.
"Why! She went out, I didn't go out! As soon as Hoshino Baiyin heard that he was going to be punished for confinement, he immediately jumped to his feet, "And I just asked if it was okay because I didn't understand, Sakurai-sensei, you can't do this." ”
Ria Sakurai is really going to be angry: "You still talk back!" ”
Hoshino Silver's momentum immediately weakened, and then he rubbed Sakurai Lea's calf flatteringly: "Teacher, tell me, why can't you go to the enchantment?" There was a sly glint in her eyes, and it was obvious that she was diverting Sakurai's attention.
And Sakurai Lea was also very successful in being led astray by this little milk cat, and said seriously: "Silver, you have to know that we are cat demons, we are monsters, humans must not be able to accept us, you know?" So if we are discovered, then what awaits our entire cat demon clan is a catastrophe! ”
"Ahh Why is this happening? The little milk cat was obviously scared silly, "That sister, she went out, why did she come back?" ”
Sakurai Ria's face was a little unsightly: "Lianhua-chan is just a fluke!" But Bai Yinjun, we can't have a fluke mentality, understand? And whether Lianhua-chan brought danger to our people, even the elders couldn't predict! ”
Natsuki can now be completely sure that this white cat is Hoshino Aika's younger brother, and Hoshino Aihua's current location is in the shrine where their cat demon clan is confined.
And, Elders? Natsuki looked thoughtfully at Sakurai Lea who was reprimanding Hoshino Silver a few times, and then left directly, because he already knew the information he wanted to know.
Kamiori swept across the mountain, not sparing a small cave, and soon, Natsuki found a special place, this place should be the shrine where the teacher said it was confined.
Natsuki walked there as she surveyed the village in the moonlight.
I have to say that this cat demon clan is quite humane, each family has its own house, and at this time, many village households have turned on the lights, and the whole village is warmed by the warm yellow light.
At this moment, Natsuki suddenly felt a cat with a lot of soul fluctuations coming towards him, and if he looked closely, this cat looked like a white cat, but if he looked carefully, he would find that the hair on his body would reflect under the moonlight! That is, the hair on its whole body is silver.
Natsuki was suddenly surprised, civet cat? There's even a civet cat here! I wanted to turn around and leave, but it was too late.
"Who are you?!" The civet cat quickly ran in front of Natsuki, and its two big diamond-like eyes widened at Natsuki, and then they realized that the aura on Natsuki's body did not belong to them. Immediately vigilantly took a few steps back: "Ignorant human, report your name quickly!" ”
Thinking about it, this civet cat mistakenly thought that Natsuki was a disciple of a big family, Natsuki was afraid of being misunderstood by this cat, and then it would be bad to call a lot of cats, especially since the civet cat has a strange ability, that is, it can ignore any attack of spiritual power, and even any spell formed by casting spiritual power, so Natsuki's aura, as well as stealth or something, are all invisible.
So Natsuki stood still and didn't move, just smiled and said: "Natsuki Kazama, you can call me Natsuki-kun, I'm here to bring back a friend, and I don't have any ill will towards you cat demon clan." ”
The civet cat looked disbelieving: "Bring back a friend?" Need to come so late? And if I'm not mistaken, you should have snuck in! ”
Natsuki didn't expect a civet cat to be so smart, and he was a little helpless, probably because Hoshino Aihua's performance in front of him was really..., well, he didn't mean to despise Hoshino Aihua's IQ, let's say it's simple for the time being, maybe it's because of Hoshino Aihua, causing Natsuki to underestimate the intelligence of the cat demon clan.
"Do you think that if I stand at the barrier and say a reason for coming, you will let me in?" Natsuki shrugged.
"Hmm-" The civet bared its teeth and made an attacking state, but Natsuki still didn't move, the civet was suddenly a little surprised, and then although it restrained its attacking state, it was still very vigilant and continued to ask: "Then why did you come so late?" Didn't the big night remind me that you were going to do something about stealing chickens and dogs? ”
To say that Natsuki is also a coincidence, it was impossible to meet this civet cat, but because Natsuki suddenly wanted to see the scenery here, he took a detour, and met this civet who also happened to pass by mistake.
And the civet cat is obviously very vigilant, although it didn't see Natsuki's attacking action, but the defense is still very sufficient, and the whole body is in a state that can be pounced out at any time, which is also the optimal state.
How could Natsuki, who has a thousand-year memory, not know what this action of the civet represents? Suddenly he had a headache, he had such a high cultivation in his previous life, he never dared to take the initiative to provoke a creature like a civet, I don't know what happened in this life, and let him bump into it, and immediately regretted why he chose this path.
"I only came here at night because I was on the road for a day, and it was already dark when I got here," Natsuki explained helplessly, "so I'm really sorry if I bothered you." After all, it was a big night, so I didn't take the initiative to ask your elders for advice. The half-truths came out of Natsuki's mouth. Anyway, Natsuki was also going to alarm the group of elders, so he said that, but it didn't matter.
Hearing Xia Shu say that he was going to take the initiative to ask the elders, the civet cat believed it a little, but he still said wittily: "Then why don't I take you to meet the old immortals." ”
Old and immortal? Natsuki almost stumbled, and then followed the majestic civet to meet the so-called elders.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're a civet." Natsuki quietly remembered the way he had walked. Civets are the most cunning creatures, they easily do not trust outsiders, so what they are willing to show in front of others is generally an illusion, or something used to confuse people. So seeing this civet cat take himself directly to the shrine like this, Natsuki's intuition told him to be careful and deceitful.
The civet cat was walking in front, and when he heard Natsuki ask, he immediately let out a slow "um", which was very big-name.
Natsuki couldn't help but want to laugh a little, but he still looked very serious: "It seems that the civet clan has been friendly with the cat demon clan since the Edo period?" ”
Hearing Natsuki's words, the ears of the civet cat in front of him moved, and after a while, he continued: "That's right. However, our civet cat and the cat demon clan are originally the same ancestor, so the friendship or something is just a rumor from the outside world. Now I think it's a combination of the two. ”
"Is that so?" Natsuki nodded thoughtfully, "yes, after all, they are all the same ancestor." ”
"Human, how do you know this?" Suddenly, the civet noticed that something was wrong.
Of course, Natsuki said directly: "I have memories of the previous life, that is, the Edo period. He knew that the civet was a very intelligent creature, so he could naturally understand what he was saying.
"What?!" The civet cat suddenly turned around, with a look of surprise, "You mean, the memories of your previous life have awakened?" ”
Natsuki smiled and nodded, now there is finally one who is willing to believe in himself.
