Chapter 22: Cat Language
"Lightbringer?" Frozen noted Doris's words, "What Lightbringer?"
"That's ......" Toris was about to point to Qilu, but in the next moment, her face immediately turned red. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info She lowered her hand and pinned her head to the side.
"Hey, don't say anything halfway!" Frozen Book shouted at the top of his voice, causing the cats around Toris to raise their tails at him in anticipation.
Qi Lu stretched out his hand, holding the collar of the frozen book, and dragged him behind him helplessly.
[This kid is really the rhythm of the lonely life......]
"Why are you here?" asked Kirule, Doris. Since his last trip out of the Diffie Forest, Kiru has been staying at Frozen Books' house, trying to find some useful information. So, he never saw Toris again.
Toris is simple-minded, and she doesn't dwell on the previous slip of the tongue. She opened her mouth and replied, "I'm working for Mrs. Rongfang." Her cat had gone missing a few days ago, so Mrs. Rong Fang posted a bounty for her cat. ”
"Bounty?" Frozen Book had never heard of that word.
Bounty is considered a part-time job and a reward. Agencies usually have this service for people to choose from. Sometimes, it may be that the publisher wants to find a temporary worker to take care of the house, and only one person can take the task. Sometimes, like the bounty issued by Mrs. Rong Fang, multiple people can take on the task, but the person who gets the reward can only be the first person to complete it.
"Mrs. Rongfang's cat was lost here, and I happen to be very familiar with the cats in this area, so I came over to ask. ”
"Do you understand cat language?!" Frozen Book has a very loud voice, and if people who don't know the situation will think that he is arguing. No, the cats around Toris really couldn't stand it anymore, and they swarmed up again.
Qilu don't look over, he can't complain about the frozen book.
Toris stretched out her hand to stop the cats, but she was too small to stop.
"Everyone, stop!" Dorisy walked up and picked up the cats one by one, but the cats were so powerful that Doriss couldn't do anything about it.
"Don't worry, he can't die. Kiru patted Toris on the shoulder and motioned for her to stop. "These cats are very protective of you, you just need to communicate with them in cat language, okay?"
Toris thinks Kiru has a point. She stopped her panic, took a deep breath, and said, "Everyone, stop. ”
The cats besieging the frozen book no longer pounced on the frozen book, and they scattered in all directions.
"Let's go back first, and I'll bring you dried fish another day." Toris said to the cats.
Qilu looked at Toris suspiciously. He thought that Dores had used some kind of magic spell to talk to the cat, but it seemed that there was not the slightest magic fluctuation from her body just now.
[Could this be a coincidence?]
Qilu tries to convince himself that there is no one in this world to talk to cats.
However, after listening to Toris's words, the cats left one after another.
The last assumption in Qilu's mind was overturned.
"Bastard...... Are these cats crazy or crazy!Uncle Ben is going to settle accounts with them!" Frozen Book got up from the ground and patted the dust off his body. There were too many cats just now, so he directly pressed the frozen book to the ground and slammed it.
"Meow!" one of the remaining white, black-eyed cats barked at Frozen Book, who waved his fist at it, but it didn't care.
The white cat wagged its tail and walked up to Toris in an elegant posture and threw the bell on her tail to her.
"Meow~" Compared with the threatening name of the frozen book, the white hair is much friendlier to Toris. It barked a few times, then wagged its tail and left. Like a noble lady.
Toris took the bell and held it blankly for a moment, then suddenly became like she had taken a doping yes, and said:
"I still have something to do, so I'll go first! I'll give you compensation for being scratched by a cat another day!" Doris bowed ninety degrees to the frozen book, and then blessed Qi Lufu, and hurriedly ran away.
"Hey, why did this woman get into trouble...... Run, ......" Frozen Book shouted at the top of his voice again, but unfortunately he was given a "dumb password" by Qilu's eyes.
"Let's go, continue to lead the way. Take me to the 'ruins'. Frozen Book said in a calm voice.
Frozen Book nodded sullenly and continued to walk in front to lead the way. Although he was unwilling to be so obedient in his heart, he couldn't show it yet. He also wanted to learn more about alchemy from Qilu.
"That woman just now, why did you call you the Lightbringer? Didn't you say that you hadn't heard about the Lightbringer before?" Frozen Book's voice was muffled, and people knew that he was sullen in his heart when he heard it.
Qilu followed behind Frozen Book, sighing helplessly and shaking his head. He is good at probing people's minds, not to mention freezing books that don't hide his expression and tone.
Frozen books are actually not bad, but they lack heart. Qilu doesn't get along with him deeply, but he can also feel that he is a righteous little ghost. It's just that his righteousness can easily scare others away, so everyone around him only thinks that he is a genius child with a perverse personality.
"I don't know why. "I strayed into the forest, and it was Toris who brought me out." For some reason, she called me Lightbringer from the beginning. ”
"Hmph, just pretend......" Frozen Book muttered in a low voice, this was a noisy "slum", he thought Qilu couldn't hear it.
Unfortunately, since Qilu inexplicably had these cat ears, his hearing has become exceptionally good.
[Is this kid's EQ all used to recharge his IQ?]
The two of them walked forward without a word.
The location of the ruins is not in the middle of nowhere, but in the center of the Stream Territory.
The Liuzhi District is a place where people without demon blood live, and it is also the "slum" mentioned before.
However, because there is such a ruin in the center, there are basically no people living here.
However, because there were no people here, Frozen Books couldn't find the right place.
"So, now we're lost?" Qilu said so usually, but the frozen book that wanted to save face heard something else.
He looked embarrassed, but he didn't admit that he was lost.
"Are you familiar with this place or am I familiar with it?" you have the ability, but you are looking for the ruins yourself!" Frozen Book held his breath and shouted.
Qi Lu raised his hands in surrender, he didn't expect the frozen book imp to be still a tsundere. He used alchemy as a bargaining chip to let Frozen Book take him to the ruins, and conversely, Frozen Book could also force Qilu to teach him alchemy once for coercion.
But now Frozen Book didn't have the heart to do that, because he was stubborn and had to find the right way to the ruins.
[I take back what I just said, this kid's IQ and EQ are martyred together!]
