Bai Ye opened his eyes and looked at Xiaomi, who glanced at it and continued to scratch it.

Xiaomi was silent for a moment and said, "I wouldn't be so selfish. Even if one day I'm gone, I hope it's still good and has a new owner. ”

Helian Tian was stunned.

Millet hugged Bai Ye and said, "So, I don't want to drip blood to confess the Lord." After saying that, she carried Bai Ye outside to play. White Night lies on Millet's arm, docile as a thoughtless towel.

He Liantian looked at his father and asked for his opinion.

Grandpa said, "If she doesn't want to, don't want it." ”

Helian Tian spread his hands and said, "Okay, but in this case, Bai Ye will not recognize the Lord." ”

"Maybe she'll change her mind in a few days." Daddy said.

"Hmm." Helian Tian nodded.

Soon, Daddy and Helian Tian heard the sound of a cat meowing outside and Xiaomi's laughter.

On the same day, Dad and Xiaomi had dinner at the dog meat restaurant before returning to the hotel. Before leaving, Xiaomi begged Helian Tian to let her take Bai Ye away.

Helian Tian said: "If it doesn't recognize the Lord's words, I can't give it to you." But I can let you take it back and play for a few days. ”

Grandpa heard from Helian Tian's words that he still wanted Xiaomi to drip blood to recognize the Lord.

"Thank you so much!" Xiaomi was excited and did not get depressed because there was only a few days to spare. She happily lowered her head and stroked the white night's beard.

Bai Ye shook his head and didn't let Millet brush his beard. The average cat doesn't like people touching its whiskers. But White Night didn't jump out of Xiaomi's arms.

"I think Bai Ye really likes you more. I used to touch its whiskers and it would jump away immediately. Helian Tian said with a smile.

Millet smiled.

After returning to the hotel, Xiaomi took care of Bai Ye and didn't care much about his father.

Grandpa was very happy to see her and Bai Ye having fun, and tried not to disturb them, doing everything lightly, as if a weightless shadow floated around the room.

"Why are you so quiet?" Xiaomi sometimes says that about him.

He replied, "You see, I learned from a cat that I learned my skill as light as a cat's feet." ”

For the next few days, Grandpa and Xiaomi spent the day at the hotel, and went out at night to collect new grievances to replenish the missing grievances.

Millet collects grievances with white nights. White Night is like an elf in the night, sometimes by Grandpa and Xiaomi's side, sometimes disappearing.

Once, Grandpa felt that Bai Ye had disappeared for too long and was afraid that it would get lost, so he asked Xiaomi: "Why hasn't Bai Ye come back yet?" ”

Mi replied disappreciatively while collecting grievances: "Don't worry, it will be back soon." After saying that, she would look out in the dark night when she couldn't see the distance at all, and smile reassuringly. It was as if her eyes could see through the inky night that the white night was running somewhere.

Sure enough, after a while, Bai Ye ran back. Its body will be a little more swollen than it was before. Ordinary cats can be infected by evil spirits outside, let alone cat ghosts. Daddy thought it was a wandering spirit or resentment that had eroded the white night.

Millet put down the small wooden box, picked up Bai Ye, and said gently: "Thank you, but I don't know where you collected your grievances, and I don't know what to name them." ”

Only then did Grandpa know that White Night was going to help Xiaomi share the task of collecting grievances.

Xiaomi let go of her hand and let the white night jump off her arm and disappear into the night again.

Grandpa stood in the hazy night, feeling like standing on the dark bottom of the sea, and the white night was a fish in the sea, coming and going freely, not lost. Later, my grandfather once said to my grandfather that people are actually fish, and the air is not empty, but air, just like water permeating the surroundings of people. To fish, water is like gas. Later, my grandfather told me this analogy, and I thought it was very novel, and I felt that my grandfather had said a great truth, and there seemed to be nothing new about it, and then I often dreamed that I was swimming around like a fish in the watery air.

Grandpa was stunned for a moment, and then said to Xiaomi: "Yes, it not only likes you now, but also takes the initiative to share the burden with you." ”

Millet nodded happily and said, "Yes." ”

"I should take you and Bai Ye to meet your master and ask him if this counts as a confession." Daddy said.

"I don't really care if it's a confession." Millet said.

Daddy still has expectations for millet cat ghosts. Whether it is on Junshan Island, or in Thrush Village, or on the way from Thrush Village to here, Millet is relatively withdrawn and unsociable. He hopes that Xiaomi will have a partner, her own little partner. In addition, if the cat ghost can really be cultivated, the grandfather will be more at ease. Ze Sheng may attack Xiaomi coldly, if the cat ghost is cultivated, there will be an extra defense.

"What if you have a relationship with it, and it recognizes you as Lord?" Daddy said.

Xiaomi smiled, she must have hoped from the bottom of her heart that she would have a fate with Bai Ye to recognize the Lord. Because Helian Tian said that if he couldn't recognize the master, Bai Ye could only accompany her for a few days, and he couldn't belong to her, and in the end he still had to take Bai Ye back.

"It wouldn't be surprising if that was the case." Xiaomi said, "There are some things that seem difficult as long as you put your heart into it, but it is actually not difficult." And some seem to choose the easy shortcut, but in fact block the better one. ”

Grandpa smiled knowingly and said, "You should say this in front of your master." ”

Millet pouted and continued to collect resentment.

After a while, Daddy and Xiaomi walked a little farther apart. Daddy walked to the slope of a hill to collect grievances, while Millet stopped at the foot of the mountain.

Suddenly, Daddy heard Xiaomi's screams.

Grandpa hurriedly ran down the hill and saw the panicked millet and the grinning white night. Daddy looked around, and there was nothing unusual.

"What's wrong?" Daddy asked.

Millet wiped her face and said, "Just now, a geist suddenly popped out from behind the tree. ”

Some ghosts like to play pranks, often scare people coldly, and enjoy it like naughty children. Millet and Daddy often encounter each other when they are collecting grievances in the wild. Because some of the mischievous ghosts have dirty and scary faces, and they appear suddenly, Xiaomi will still be scared. If it is an underage child who is frightened, it is likely to scare the soul away. When a child loses his soul, he will have a fever and talk nonsense. The family will go to the place where the child has played during the day, and shout the child's name as they go, hoping that the child's soul will hear the cries of their relatives and follow them back.

But this time, Grandpa looked left and right, and saw no dirty or terrifying spirits.

"Where's the geist?" Daddy asked.

Millet pointed to the white night standing at her feet and said, "...... It ...... eaten by it."

Grandpa looked at Bai Ye, and it looked innocent, as if it had been wronged. But its mouth was still chewing, and its tongue was sticking out from time to time to lick, and it was almost about to burp. Its belly was even more round than before, and it was chubby as if it was pregnant with a kitten.

Daddy touched Bai Ye's belly. A force passed through Bai Ye's belly to Grandpa's hand. Grandpa was surprised, and when he looked closely, he found that Bai Ye's belly was constantly bulging and calming in some places, as if a leather bag contained a desperate living creature.

"The geist was eaten by it?" Grandpa let go of Bai Ye and asked Xiaomi.

Xiaomi nodded and said, "Yes, what scared me was not the spirit that suddenly popped out, but the white night!" ”

"The white night scared you?"

"Hmm. The sight of it eating geists scared me! Millet said with palpitations.

No wonder Bai Ye wanted to put on an innocent face, it must have wanted to protect Xiaomi after seeing the sudden appearance of the geist, but he didn't expect his actions to scare Xiaomi.

However, it can be really creepy to see a cat eat a ghostly spirit like a human.

Daddy remembered the scene of a group of cat ghosts eating people in a dog meat restaurant. Even flesh and blood can be eaten, and this virtual spirit is naturally not a problem.

Grandpa touched Xiaomi's head and comforted, "What are you afraid of?" It's trying to protect you. ”

Later, when my grandfather died, I was lying on the door panel of the hall, and I was doing somersaults next to my father's corpse. My mother and uncle tried to take me away, but my grandfather stopped me and said, "What are you afraid of?" Grandpa will only protect him, and will not scare him into harming him. Let him play here. ”

My grandfather inherited some of my father's ideas and ideas. Sometimes I can see some of my grandfather's shadow in him, but he doesn't think he is like him. It's like the people in Thrush Village can see some shadows of my grandfather and grandfather in me, but I don't know if what they say is true.

Daddy's comfort played a role. Xiaomi swallowed dryly, squatted down and touched Bai Ye's head, and said, "I'm sorry, Bai Ye, I shouldn't be afraid of you." ”

White Night narrowed his eyes.

Grandpa took advantage of the situation and persuaded: "Xiaomi, you touch its belly." The geist was still punching and kicking in its stomach. "After all, the cat ghost is not an ordinary cat, this time I ate the soul, and I don't know what surprising things will happen next time. Xiaomi should come to terms with the fact that White Night is an uncommon and even very scary cat as soon as possible.

Xiaomi raised her head and looked at her father, but she still didn't dare. This doesn't seem to be the same as the millet who once cut off the head of the monkey trickster and the water monkey with his own hands. Women are often like this, sometimes they are too weak to lift an empty bucket, but sometimes they can carry a full bucket of water and walk like a fly; Sometimes the fingers are scratched and the skin is fried, but sometimes the scars are still resolute; Sometimes the face changes with fright when you see a small insect, but sometimes you are not afraid to stand up and die.

Xiaomi is not yet a woman, but the changes in her body are indeed becoming more and more obvious. usually shows up, and there are already men who look sideways for her.

"Give it a try. I just touched it and it's not a big deal. Daddy encouraged.

Millet finally timidly put her hand over Bai Ye's belly. A happy smile appeared on Xiaomi's face, and she was pleasantly surprised: "Really, it's kicking inside." Doesn't it hurt the white night? ”

"No, it won't. White night is a kitten ghost, a Horcrux door, how can the container containing the soul be hurt by the soul? Daddy said.

Xiaomi's jade bracelet emitted a pale green light, which flashed in a flash, as if the light was just an illusion produced by people.
