Chapter 549: After so many years, it's been very hard
"This shrine seems to have only cats."
Jiang Bai walked around with the bed, but he didn't find anyone there.
"These cats have only opened their minds, and they can't transform yet, and it's really embarrassing for them to maintain this shrine for so long."
Hu Tao made up for the appearance of the cat repairing the shrine, cleaning up the weeds, and wiping the table, and suddenly couldn't help laughing.
But then, the smile faded a little and added a bit of sadness.
"Unfortunately, the people they wait for will never be able to wait."
Whether it's a human or an animal, this kind of camaraderie is moving.
People always want to do something for them.
"Let's rest first, and help them repair the shrine tomorrow."
The next morning, the bed woke up with a tinkling clatter.
It stretched out in a daze, and jumped onto the roof in search of sounds.
A few humans I knew yesterday were working on the rooftops, replacing the broken tiles.
A few kittens stood curiously and watched.
"Bed, your roof has broken a lot."
Jiang Bai threw the broken tiles into the clearing, which was already piled up.
"Meow, the slave is just a cat and can't fix the roof."
"That's right." Asking a cat to fix the roof is like letting a slime do the laundry, which is a bit of a struggle for them.
"We'll help you fix the roof so it doesn't leak on rainy days and you can live more comfortably."
"Meow, you're so nice!" Bedko was moved, and walked over and rubbed Jiang Bai's trouser leg.
Looking at the cute little black cat,
Jiang Bai couldn't hold back, and reached out to touch its soft hair.
Neko narrowed her eyes in enjoyment and cocked her tail.
Seeing that it liked it, Jiang Bai stroked its back with one hand and gently scratched its small chin with the other.
Neko purred in comfort.
"You help the slave family repair the shrine, and the slave family invites you to eat small dried fish and fruits."
The bed meowed, and a few kittens who were watching the excitement spread out and jumped off the roof.
After a while, two cats came running, each biting one side of the frame, and jumped onto the roof with some difficulty.
Inside the bamboo basket were some small dried fish in the sun.
After a while, the other two cats also returned.
They also bite the bamboo baskets, and the things they transport with difficulty.
This bamboo frame is heavier, and it contains some fruits.
The fruit looked very fresh, and it was obvious that they had just picked it.
Because the basket was a bit heavy, one kitten almost didn't jump up, and even the kitten with another kitten who was about to jump on the roof also fell, and all the fruits in the frame fell down.
Jiang Bai's eyes were quick, and he used the wind element to catch them and bring them to the roof in time.
"Meow~"
The little flower cat that didn't jump up curled up and let out a frightened meow.
Jiang Bai touched its head, "Be careful next time." ”
The little flower cat looked at Jiang Bai curiously, she didn't expect this human to be so gentle.
Jiang Bai smoothed the fur of the little flower cat, and turned his head to look at Yidou:
"Ichito, lend me your comb."
"What do you want a comb for?" Asked, Ichito threw over the comb he had with him.
"Here, groom you."
When the little flower cat heard this, she lay on Jiang Bai's lap and exposed her belly for him to comb.
Looking at the little flower cat lying on Jiang Bai's legs, Bedko was a little envious.
Once, it also lay in Ah Xiang's arms like this, Ah Xiang would comb him, tell him stories, and laugh and say that it sleeps every day, and it will be a big lazy cat in the future.
However, his former little lazy cat has grown into a big cat, and while taking care of this group of kittens, he maintains the shrine and waits for Ah Xiang to return.
"Does Neko want to brush her hair too?"
Hu Tao reached out and took it into his arms, sat on the roof and took out a comb to comb it.
"Meow~"
Feeling the warm embrace, Neko wanted to cry a little.
I don't know how long it has been since I was last held in my arms.
Hu Tao rubbed its head and gently stroked the soft hairs on its back.
"It must have been hard for so many years! Ah Xiang would be very happy if he knew that you were so sensible now and had become the acting palace secretary. ”
Hearing this, the tears of the sleeping child came down in a flash.
It's waiting, waiting, waiting, it's really hard......
Hu Tao gently stroked it and sighed inwardly.
What a sad thing to wait for someone who is destined not to wait.
It is different from the Five Hundred Tibets.
Gokurizo is a big tanuki demon who has the responsibility of guarding the forest of the town, and in addition to the fox palace, he has other friends, and he also has his little tanuki cats.
However, Neko is different, it is just a cat, and hundreds of years ago, it only had a Hibiki in its life.
And after Ah Xiang left, its life became waiting for Ah Xiang to return.
For this kitten who lives here, waiting for at least life is still looking forward to it.
And once this truth is exposed, life will lose even this hope.
Several kittens gathered around, meowing and meowing, trying to comfort the neko.
Although they have opened their minds, they are still unable to speak.
Neko wiped away her tears with her paws.
It's now the acting palace secretary, and it can't cry.
"Can you please help the slave repair the cash box?"
"Fix the cash drawer?"
"In the past, there would be a lot of people coming to the shrine, and they would throw you round golden things in front of you, and if the cash box is repaired, someone will come to the shrine."
Hu Tao has mixed feelings.
For cats, the world is so simple.
After the money box is repaired, maybe someone will come, someone will come, maybe Ah Xiang will come back.
As for why Ah Xiang left and why he didn't come back, he didn't understand.
It only knows that it has to take care of the shrine for Ah Xiang and wait for Ah Xiang to come back.
"Oh, don't be so sad! Let's go, Uncle Ben will help you repair the cash box to ensure that it is beautiful! ”
Ichito strode over and stretched out his hand to scoop it up, and directly scooped up the bed.
He didn't like the sad atmosphere the most.
If you can be happy, why should you be sad?
The bed was shaken above his head by it, and the whole cat was a little confused.
was interrupted by him like this, and any sad atmosphere was gone.
By the way, he scooped up all the kittens on the ground and held them in his arms.
"Let's go, fix the money box and take you to play hide and seek. Uncle Ben is the strongest hide-and-seek champion in Hanamizaka, and there is no ...... that Uncle Ben can't find."
Watching Yidou leave with the kittens, Jiang Bai sighed with emotion.
"At this time, I'm going to have to play in a fight."
Ichito is the kind of person who can make people happy at any time.
With him, grief is forbidden.
Although Jiang Bai usually looks giggling and quite out of tune, he is not an optimistic person like Yidou.
He doesn't have the ability to make people happy, nor does he have the temperament of a child king.
In the face of this sad atmosphere, he will choose to comfort rather than forcibly bring people out of the sad atmosphere like Ito.
It's like in the Forest of Guards.
It's not that he can't feel the sadness of Gobaizo, he just does it on purpose.
