Volume 1 Hao's Vessel Chapter 37 The Adventure of the White Cat Goodbye relatives
In Xuefeng Mountain, not far from Zouma Village, the Zhang family stationed some people here to supervise the villagers mining Xuefeng Stone and record the transportation of Xuefeng Stone. The Demon Slayer's Yin Desolation Fortress rotation had just ended, and on the way back to his home, Zhang Hai asked Zhang Zhaimiao to go to Xuefeng Mountain to bring a copy of the ledger back to Zhang's house.
Zhang Hai's adjutant Zhang Keng accompanied Zhang Zhaimiao to the tent of the director of Xuefeng Mountain, and Zhang Qidi, who was in charge, put the two account books on the table.
"Both, this is the original and a copy of the account book, the contents of which were recorded at the beginning of November last year. Please check the contents. ”
"Uncle Zhang Keng, are you asking me to check?" Zhang Zhaimiao was a little puzzled, he had never been exposed to these things, and he originally came out this time to let Zhang Zhaimiao get acquainted with the affairs of the Zhang family.
"That's not necessary, I'll check, we have to go back to Zhang's house early, I'll check it myself sooner." Zhang Keng waved his hand at Zhang Zhaimiao, and had already begun to check the number of account books.
"Okay, then I'll go out and wait for you, Uncle Zhang Keng. ”
Zhang Zhaimiao walked out of the tent, the light outside was a little dazzling, this year's summer was particularly early, it was weirdly early, despite the hot weather, but those villagers were still collecting blood peak stones, this was the first time Zhang Zhaimiao came to such a place, looking at those villagers, he always had a feeling that he couldn't speak.
Why did the Zhang family hire the villagers to mine the Blood Peak Stone? Zhai Miao couldn't figure out where the family needed to use the Blood Peak Stone. I always feel that there are still many things in the family that I don't know.
The sudden sound of the bell distracted Zhai Miao's attention, and his eyes quickly moved to the direction where the bell came from, a white cat stared at him in the grass not far away, the white cat looked short and fat, Zhang Zhai Miao looked very familiar, and a brown cat raised at home before, but the color was far from it.
Zhang Zhaimiao boldly approached the white cat, but the cat did not walk away because of Zhang Zhaimiao's approach, and remained in place, raising his head to look at Zhang Zhaimiao who was approaching. Zhang Zhaimiao squatted down and tentatively touched the white cat's head, but the white cat did not resist and let Zhang Zhaimiao stroke his head at will.
Seeing that the white cat did not resist, Zhang Zhaimiao boldly lifted the white cat up and looked up at the white cat, the familiar fat feel was so nostalgic.
"It's really like Xiaomeiyi. Zhang Zhaimiao sighed unconsciously.
Xiaomeiyi is the name of the brown cat raised by Zhai Miao's parents when they were still in Zhang's house, but it disappeared after Zhai Miao's parents left Zhang's house, as if they left with Zhai Miao's parents.
"Tsk, don't just call my sister by her nickname. The white cat not only smacked his tongue, but also spoke human words.
Zhang Zhaimiao was so frightened that her hands loosened, the white cat's chubby body fell to the ground very flexibly, and the white cat took two steps with arrogant steps, turned his head and continued to look at the panicked Zhang Zhaimiao.
"Can you speak?"
The white cat didn't answer, its expression was like a human, frowning and looking at Zhang Zhaimiao, very dissatisfied. When the white cat turned its head, the silver nameplate tied around its neck collided with the bell and made a crisp sound.
Zhang Zhaimiao also saw that the style of the nameplate was the identity nameplate of the Zhang family's demon slayer, and when he joined the demon slayer as an adult, he would probably have his own nameplate.
But this nameplate was Zhang Zhai Miao stunned like an electric shock, he saw the name on the nameplate, Ao, it was his father's name, and only his father's demon slayer nameplate did not carry the surname of the Zhang family, after all, his father was just a homeless child who was taken in.
"Why do you have your father's nameplate?" Zhang Zhaimiao asked in surprise.
Although it was strange for this to appear on a cat's face, the white cat's mouth did reveal that mocking smile. When Zhang Zhaimiao saw that smile, she only felt a chill in her heart: "Say it quickly!"
The white cat still didn't speak again, as if it didn't speak in the first place. The white cat did not continue to stay, but ran into the bushes, Zhang Zhaimiao did not think, and followed the white cat into the bushes.
Not long after Zhang Zhaimiao was taken away from here by the white cat, Zhang Keng walked out of the tent.
"Zhang Zhaimiao, let's go...... Zhang Zhaimiao, Zhang Zhaimiao, where are you?"
At this time, Zhang Zhaimiao has been led by the white cat to a place that is quite far away from Xuefeng Mountain, and has already arrived near the cultivated fields of the villagers of Zouma Village.
The white cat stopped next to a small tree and looked back at Zhang Zhaimiao, who was already panting. The white cat deliberately brought Zhai Miao here, Zhang Zhai Miao figured this out in the process of chasing the white cat, and the bell on its body was simply put on so that he would not lose it.
"What the hell are you trying to do? What happened to my father?"
The white cat held up the nameplate with his paws, looked at the nameplate and spit out again: "Are you Zhang Ao's son?" ”
"You really know my father, what the hell is wrong with him?" Zhang Zhaimiao gritted his teeth and asked.
"He's still alive, but I don't know if he'll make it enough for you to see him. The white cat said coldly.
"What do you mean?" Zhang Zhaimiao listened to what the white cat said, and began to gradually become uneasy.
"Even if I tell you now, you can't do anything, and even I can't get into the place where your parents are. The white cat's last sentence sounded a sense of discouragement, and it seemed that it wanted to go back to that place, "You should also want to see Zhang Ao and them." ”
Zhang Zhaimiao simply replied: "Isn't this nonsense? They left the Zhang family before Xinhua became sensible, and I want them to meet Xinhua." ”
"Give me the dagger that your father left behind, and I will take you there. "The white cat didn't beat around the bush.
"Dagger?" Zhang Zhaimiao subconsciously touched his waist, before leaving Zhang's house, he had always carried the dagger with him, but now he was not on his body, "I didn't bring it out, I didn't bring it out at home." ”
"Tsk, I can't take you without that dagger. The white cat was obviously a little dissatisfied when he heard that the dagger was not brought out.
"Do I need a dagger to go to my father?" the white cat nodded, and Zhang Zhaimiao stretched out his hand, "Come back to Zhang's house with me, I'll go and bring the dagger out." ”
In the face of Zhai Miao's answer, the white cat was obviously stunned for a moment, but he didn't think for too long, nodded slightly, and looked at Zhang Zhai Miao's eyes that were always very sharp: "Since this is the case, I'll go with you, and don't tell anyone that I can talk, especially the people of your Zhang family." ”
"Why, are you a demon spirit?" Zhang Zhaimiao was on guard.
"No, beast spirit, but I don't like you Zhang family people, they smell bad. The white cat did not hide his disgust at all.
"Oh well. Zhang Zhaimiao walked over and wanted to pick up the white cat, but the white cat was very resistant and hid to the side.
"What do you want to do?" cried out the white cat monster, "It's already disgusting to be picked up by you just now." ”
"Take you back to Zhang's house, at least you have to pretend to be the cat I picked up, how can there be a stray cat that will always follow people, at least let me hold you, look natural like this." Zhai Miao spread out her hands and looked innocent.
The white cat pinned his face to the side: "Only in front of the people of the Zhang family can they pick me up, don't talk about it at other times!"
"Oh well. Zhang Zhaimiao gave up picking up the white cat, stood up and looked at the fields under the hills, "Then how do we go back now?" I don't know the way, I don't know how to go back after being taken so far away by you." ”
"I don't know. The white cat replied with a cold face.
"What!"
Zhang Zhaimiao was about to go crazy after hearing the white cat's answer, what kind of joke is this, leading himself to such a far place, and he doesn't know the way.
"I don't know you can still bring me here?" this time it was Zhang Zhaimiao's turn to scream.
"I just want to take you a little farther away, I don't know the way at all, and this is my first time here. "The white cat doesn't care
"So what now?" asked Zhang Zhaimiao with wide eyes and waved her hand.
The white cat walked to the edge of the cliff in a leisurely manner, which was ten meters high from the path at the edge of the field: "Let's go for a walk, find a villager and ask how to walk." ”
The white cat said that, jumped down, Zhang Zhaimiao looked at the white cat who jumped down with a helpless face, he is a human being, the height of ten meters is not something he can bear, it seems that he can only waste a Dao talisman.
"Floating feathers, light swallows. ”
The drawn Dao talisman turned into a white light and flashed into Zhai Miao's sleeve, and then Zhang Zhai Miao jumped down with the white cat, Zhang Zhai Miao did not fall directly, the effect of the talisman made him slowly fall to the ground. Although this talisman is generally useless, I didn't expect Zhang Zhaimiao to encounter an occasion to use this talisman.
After seeing Zhang Zhaimiao landing, the white cat looked away from him and looked at the child sleeping on a big rock not far in front of him: "Ask the child in front, maybe he knows how to go to Xuefeng Mountain." ”
Zhang Zhaimiao and the white cat walked over together, and Zhang Zhaimiao kept carefully reminding: "I'll ask, don't talk." ”
"I know, it's annoying. The white cat was very impatient with Zhang Zhaimiao's reminder.
"Excuse me...... Huh?Haotian?" When he saw the child's face, Zhai Miao was stunned, this was clearly his cousin who had been missing for more than three months, Zhang Haotian.
