Jiu'er is very busy, and she seems to be the busiest among the cat people. During the day, she was busy teaching her the secrets of creating her own weapons, and now the patriarch has given a death order that all the combat-ready people of the cat clan must learn it. The weapon she created became the most promising thing she'd ever done in her life. Now all the people in the cat clan look at her differently, she has swept away the shame of the past, and no one dares to laugh at her anymore. This was originally the weapon she used to fight mice, but now it is the most powerful weapon in the eyes of the Cat Clan. After the battle with the golden retriever in Yinling Mountain, she devoted herself to research, learned from each other's strengths, and strengthened and deepened all the moves she used before, and now she is even more handy to use, and has the momentum of sweeping thousands of troops. No wonder the patriarch entrusted her with the task of training the people.

In the evenings, she is busier. She was busy learning spells from the patriarch, digesting and integrating the spells she had learned, collecting information about the golden retriever from the informants planted by the cat clan, and one important thing was to accompany her dear mother and listen to her nagging about what had happened to her over the years. The words about her life's events had been ringing in her ears countless times, and she didn't know if her ears had become thick calluses. I haven't been hearing well these days. At this time, Jiu'er, who was practicing exercises in the room, reached out and plucked his ears indecently with his index finger. She suddenly missed Liu Ping'an, who had never said a complete word to her until now, and the days with him were simply heaven on earth compared to now.

Counting the days, she has been away from him for more than a year, and this should be the hottest time in the world. In the cat family, you can't feel the heat, the four seasons here are like spring, there will always be a hint of coolness, and there will be no snow in winter, and there is no cold wind to the bone. It is better to feel that the four seasons in the world are distinct, and only when the four seasons change, alternating between cold and warm, will you feel different wonderful. It's time to go back. Turning her head and thinking about it, if she disappeared again, how should she say it to her mother? Secretly sighed, since she came back, the smile on her mother's face has not been broken, how can she be good?

Since she couldn't say goodbye, she had to stay in the cat clan for another month. For some reason, these times, she often thinks of Liu Ping'an, and in the dead of night, she dreams about Qinyang Town again. Dreaming of Qin Hao dying in her arms, dreaming of the arrogant laughter of the golden retriever, I had an ominous premonition in my heart, and that feeling was very bad. Gradually, the excitement and joy of her return cooled.

In the past few days, her patriarch uncle has no new spells to teach her, but only gave her a secret book, which records all the spells she has practiced, and even some other exercises of different law systems, although she does not practice, but it is also a good thing that she can understand other people's spells. As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible. What she was looking at now was some of the spells that the rats were used to, and they would be used someday. When she came back this time, she also went to the library and found a few ancient books to read carefully. I also read some historical allusions about the rat family, so she wanted to look on it to see if she could find any relevant information about the golden retriever. At the beginning, the library was a place where she couldn't avoid it, and she never thought of coming here. This trip to the world has really changed a lot.

The fight against the golden retriever has become a curse in her heart, in short, either he dies or she dies. Even if she didn't have the ability to kill him, she had to notify the Heavenly Palace of his hiding place and let the people in the Heavenly Palace clean him up. Only by seeing him disappear with her own eyes can the nine lives she gave really make sense.

The uneasiness in her heart followed her like a shadow, making her fidget. One night in late autumn, the surroundings were eerily quiet. She packed up a few ancient books and the secret notes given by her uncle, and brought a few changes of clothes, which were made by her mother herself after she returned, she could not accompany her often, but she could not let her mother's heart go to waste. After tidying up carefully, she went to her mother's door and knocked lightly, but there was no movement inside. She knew that her mother had rested, and she was sleeping very deeply. She lowered her hand on the door, quietly wiped the corners of her eyes, and turned to walk out of the room.

She was afraid to see her mother's heartbroken eyes, afraid to see her tearful expression, and even more afraid that she would hold her hand and not let go. She didn't dare to face her mother, she didn't dare to say goodbye in person, and she didn't dare to tell her why she had to go. She put the written letter in the room, and her mother would see it tomorrow, and by then she had left the Phantom Forest, and she was no longer afraid of her mother catching up.

She came to the outside of her uncle's patriarch's house, and there was still a light on inside. It seems that he guessed that he was leaving, and deliberately waited for her in the house. She walked in softly and called softly: "Uncle! ”

Sure enough, he hadn't rested yet. At this moment, he was sitting on the Taishi chair in the main hall, the candle flame on the table was flickering and bright, his face was hidden behind the light, his expression was unpredictable, only the pair of bright eyes were staring at Jiu'er who walked in.

"You're here? Decided? ”

"It's decided!"

"No regrets?"

"No!"

He was silent. After a while, his body collapsed slightly, and he lost the firmness he had just now, and he sighed and said, "Jiu'er, my uncle doesn't want you to go." You are the only person I want to pass on, but now, you owe such a debt outside, if your uncle doesn't let you go, it will be unjust, and if you use means to keep you, it will be unkind. This kind of unkind and unrighteous thing, I can't do it in the cat clan. You can do it for yourself in the future. ”

"Uncle! Jiu'er is not filial, so you and your mother are worried! Jiu'er has her own way to go, please uncle to fulfill it! After speaking, she suddenly knelt on the ground and bowed to Qingpeng is three times. Please take care of my mother, please tell her that Jiu'er will come back again. These nine lives of mine will eventually be returned to the cat people. Uncle, take care! As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up, and as if she had fled, she turned into a gust of wind and disappeared into the house.

It's really like I'm running away. She didn't dare to stay any longer, afraid to see the sad eyes of her uncle behind the lights, and even more afraid to see his disappointed eyes. She was afraid that she was not ruthless enough, afraid that she would be shaken, so she could only escape. Flee like a cowardly and incompetent person, and only then can she pretend to leave the place where she was born and raised.

Her departure was not hindered in any way. She knew that Qingpeng had already arranged everything for her. In the darkness, there were pairs of eyes watching her leave. She traveled unhindered, and after half an hour, she had reached the bottom of the mountain. At this time, the sky was already bright, and the big sun in the sky was about to break through the darkness and illuminate the world.

She stood quietly at the bottom of the mountain, silently turning around to look at the place where the road had been shrouded in a white mist. She didn't know if her mother knew about her departure last night, and she didn't know if Bai Ling and Hei Lan were watching her leave in the dark. In short, she is a cowardly person, she doesn't dare to face reality, she doesn't dare to say goodbye in person, she can only quietly leave alone. Leave all her closest people behind, return to Liu Ping'an's side, and continue to complete the mission of protecting him. She thought, she was really sick, and she was very sick. For a mortal who has only been with him for a few decades, he has delivered his whole life. Was she wrong? She asked herself. Go to him, suffer for a while, don't go to him, suffer for a lifetime. Even if you have nine lives and can live thousands of years, what is the use? If the heart is lonely, then it will be torture to live.
