Chapter 40: Nothing!

Lao Li glanced at the fish and then at Zhang Xu. Perhaps he noticed that Zhang Xu exuded a sense of calm. He did not attack Zhang Xu.

In the end, he could not resist the temptation of the fish. He quickly took the fish far away and ate it while watching Zhang Xu.

When it finished eating this piece, Zhang Xu threw a second piece of fish to it.

When the fish was thrown, Zhang Xu squatted down and watched it eat.

After eating the three pieces of fish thrown by Zhang Xu, Lao Li became more and more immersed in it, and did not resist Zhang Xu's existence.

Zhang Xu gently stretched out his hand and tried to touch Lao Li. Lao Li chewed the fish in his mouth and looked at Zhang Xu with slanted eyes, as if to warn him not to act rashly.

Zhang Xu is very patient and knows that such a thing cannot be achieved overnight.

He continued to feed Lao Li. Lao Li completely lost his vigilance and immersed himself in the world of food.

Zhang Xu finally felt the fur on his back.

Seeing that Lao Li did not resist his touch, Zhang Xu slowly moved his hand to the back of his neck.

The skin on the back of the neck is the most touchable part of the cat. You can grab the meat on the back of the neck to lift the cat.

Lao Li, who was eating food, narrowed his eyes slightly, which showed that he was very comfortable.

By this time, it had completely lost its initial vigilance against Zhang Xu.

In this way, Zhang Xu gave all the fish in the bag to Lao Li.

Lao Li stretched out his long tongue and licked his mouth and teeth, his face still full of meaning.

"Meow."

It looked at Zhang Xu eagerly, and its tone was full of pleading.

Zhang Xu knew that he was not full. He laughed and said, "I still have fish at home." If you follow me down the hill to my house, I'll give you some. ”。

Do you understand what I mean?

If you can understand, just give me a nod and meow. “

In fact, Zhang Xu just teased him casually, but he didn't expect Lao Li to respond to him.

As a result, Lao Li even nodded heavily and gave Zhang Xu a very clear "meow". His eyes became docile.

Zhang Xu was pleasantly surprised.

"What a spiritual little one!

You've settled in my peach grove. I think you secretly ate some blood-soaked peaches. “

Sometimes, when picking fruits, Zhang Xu can't remember clearly. There is a high probability that the lost peaches will be eaten by the cat, which makes him so energetic.

I do not know. The cat also ate the snake that Zhang Lan encountered. Zhang Xu found that they had left traces of a fight.

Zhang Xu has never seen such a smart cat as Pang Cheng, it is so agile and understands human language.

Originally, Zhang Xu was just curious about the cat under the scarecrow and wanted to amuse him with fish.

Now, seeing Lao Li so cute, he was moved to tame him.

"So what are we waiting for? Let's go. I'll take you home for fish! ”

Under the leadership of Zhang Xu, Lao Li followed him to the ground step by step, always maintaining a close distance.

A man and a cat walking in the mountains. Zhang Xu felt very safe.

That's what companionship feels like.

He prefers cats to dogs because most of the cats he keeps at home die quickly. Growing up, he wanted to have a sensible and long-lived cat.

Lao Li is currently very much to his taste.

After bringing Lao Li home, Zhang Xu took him to the courtyard.

He came to Lao Li with a bucket in his hand.

"Bang Bang..."

"Bang ......"

The fish in the bucket is very energetic.

Zhang Xu opened the lid of the bucket and said to the salivating Lao Li: "The fish is here, you can eat it as much as you like, don't be polite." ”

Lao Li looked at the heavy fish in the bucket, his eyes shining.

It will wait for Zhang Xu's words!

Under Zhang Xu's gaze, Lao Li arched his body, jumped up from half a meter above the ground, stretched out his sharp claws, and jumped into the bucket.

"Bang!"

"Meow!"

Water splashes everywhere. Lao Li is not afraid of water at all, and fights with the fish in the bucket.

Soon, the battle moved from the barrel to the ground outside the barrel.

Even if the fish regenerates vigorously, its combat effectiveness will be greatly weakened if it leaves the water.

After a few efforts, Lao Li's sharp teeth finally bit the fish.

The fish struggled desperately, and the fish's tail slapped Lao Li in the face a few times.

Lao Li let go of his mouth, bared his teeth, and fanned the fish from a meter away.

The fish stands upright on the ground. Lao Li watched the fish quietly, and when it struggled a few times and had little strength, he jumped up and bit it.

Before the fish's tail slaps it, release its mouth. After several rounds of such exercises, the fish finally stopped moving.

Lao Li's face was a little proud. Under Zhang Xu's gaze, he ate all the fish in an orderly manner from beginning to end.

Zhang Xu was surprised by Lao Li's ferocious combat power, and at the same time made his appetite work.

More than half an hour ago, the cat ate a fish in the mountains!

How appetizing it is to eat two fish in an hour.

He looked at Old Li Yuan's stomach and smiled.

"Have you eaten enough? Would you like another drink? ”

Lao Li squinted his eyes and said "meow" to Zhang Xu contentedly.

It was as if I was telling him that I was full. Thank you for your hospitality.

The cat also knows how to be content, which makes Zhang Xu like it more and more, so he said to it: "Why don't you be my cat?"

Come with me, I'll give you fish to eat, and lots of spiritual fruits for you to eat.

Nod and meow if you want. “

Lao Li tilted his head, as if considering what Zhang Xu said.

Zhang Xu waited for three or four seconds. When he felt that Lao Li would not respond to him, Lao Li gave him a humane nod.

"Meow..."

The voice elongated the pitch and appeared rather coquettish.

This made Zhang Xu very happy.

"Since you agreed, let's go to the Lord's Commendation Ceremony."

In fact, the so-called ritual of confession is not a drop of blood, but the most commonly used ritual in the countryside.

In the past, every time Zhang Xu brought back a cat, this ceremony would be held, so Zhang Xu was already familiar with it.

"Come on, let me hold you."

Lao Li "meowed" lightly and jumped into Zhang Xu's open arms, his movements were precise.

Zhang Xu weighed Lao Li with a heavy hand.

"You're heavy, at least 15 to 6 kilograms."

Ten orange cats weigh nine. Zhang Xu finally saw it.

He took Lao Li to the stove, grabbed the cat's paws, and rubbed the black ash on it.

Then, he put Lao Li's fleshy palm heavily on the white wall, and a small plum blossom immediately appeared on the wall.

Zhang Xu smiled and said to the docile Lao Li in his arms: "From now on, you are my cat."

I'll give you freedom, but you should remember to go home often. This will always be your warm harbor. “

Lao Li meowed, indicating that he understood Zhang Xu's words.

Zhang Xu turned his head and said, "Since you are my cat, you should have your own name."

Let me give you a name. You're a boy. Call you Xiao Meng.

What do you think? “

His reply was a pleasant meow.

"It was a very happy decision."

In this way, Zhang Xu raised an orange fat cat named Xiaomeng.

Xiao Meng walked around Zhang Xu's house a few times, familiarized himself with the territory, and then fell asleep lazily under the tree at the door.

Soon, Zhang Li and Zhang Lan came to Zhang Xu's house. They're here to pick peaches today.

When the two women came to the door and saw a round piece of meat under the tree, they were pleasantly surprised.

Zhang Li let out a beautiful cry of surprise.

"It's an orange cat. It's so cute. It's fat and round! ”

Two people stepped forward and surrounded Xiaomeng, trying to touch it.

Xiaomeng is basking in the sun, digesting the fish he just ate. It was a pleasant time, but the silence was interrupted by the voices of two women.

It stared at them impatiently, and its fierce eyes made the second girl a little frightened.

Zhang Li looked at Xiaomeng from a distance and smiled at him the cutest.

"Good cat, don't be afraid. How about my sister buy you some dried fish? ”

Xiao Mengli ignored him, squinted her eyes and continued to bask in the sun.

Seeing Zhang Liyue trying to touch the cat, Sun Cui couldn't help but roll up her sleeves.

"Zhao Di, don't go there.

I don't think this cat likes to be touched. If it gets caught and bites, it's bad. “

Zhang Li smiled and said, "What are you afraid of?"

There is no cat that does not like to be touched. The cat is just not familiar with me.

I chatted with it a few more times, and it touched me.

Don't be unconvinced. From childhood to adulthood, all cats loved me. They actively touched me. They want to go home after I'm gone.

Of course, it is no exception. “

Seeing that Zhang Li insisted on going, Zhang Lan did not stop her.

"Meow, let me touch you."

Zhang Li was talking about making the cat happy, and reached out to touch Xiao Meng.

Xiao Meng was really angered by Zhang Li this time. He meowed deeply, his tail stood up, and he was about to greet Zhang Li with his sharp claws.

"Oh, dear!"

Zhang Li was frightened by Xiao Meng's momentum and took a few steps back.

If Zhang Lan hadn't helped her in time, she would have fallen long ago.

At that time, Zhang Li saw Zhang Xu coming out of the house. She asked him to walk quickly to Zhang Xu's side and ask him for help.

"Zhang Xu, there is a terrible cat. It's so ferocious, it's terrible! It almost scratched me! Help me! ”

Zhang Xu flashed Zhang Li's outstretched hand without a trace, and said to Xiao Meng, who was still angry: "Xiao Meng, they are not bad people, they are my guests." ”

Xiao Meng then retracted the offensive trend and walked towards Zhang Xu.

An embarrassed expression flashed across Zhang Li's face. She wanted to pretend to be weak in front of Zhang Xu, but she didn't.

She pretended to be surprised and said, "Zhang Xu, this is your cat." It's really cute and round. ”

Zhang Xu watched her face change, and said lightly: "Yes, I raised it today." ”

Zhang Li smiled and said, "I can't believe you like cats too." I also love cats, I really like cats. ”

At this time, Xiaomeng walked behind Zhang Xu and gently wagged her tail and said that she liked him.

Zhang Li hid without any trace. When she saw the different attitudes of cats towards different people, she couldn't help but say something.

"This cat must be female. Attraction of the opposite sex, rejection of the same sex. ”

Zhang Xu directly denied her claim.

"You guessed it wrong. It's a male cat.

Are you ready? Take your stuff right. We're going up the mountain.

Today's task is a bit heavy. It's best to finish picking the peaches in today's time. “

Zhang Li said angrily: "Okay, let's go!" ”

Xiaomeng followed Zhang Xu up the mountain. Zhang Xu asked strangely: "Xiaomeng, do you want to follow me up the mountain?" ”

Little Dream meowed.

Zhang Xu smiled and said, "Well, you can take a walk with me." ”

Xiao Meng followed Zhang Xu's heels, which was very cute.

Zhang Li exclaimed in surprise when she saw this scene.

"This cat understands human nature very well. You speak as if it understands. ”

Seeing that Zhang Li was about to come over, Xiao Meng shouted "meow" at it.

Zhang Li was terrified.

"Zhang Xu, I'll go first."

Zhang Xu looked at Zhang Li, who was running away, and touched Xiao Meng.

"Good guys, I know the owner's preferences, help me block the peach blossoms. It's such a good cat. ”

Little Dream meowed, as if to say, Master, I know a lot.

It was a dark night. The moon hides behind dark clouds, and the mountain peaks are cool in the middle of the night.

Zhang Xu greeted a group of guests at the top of the mountain. These four people are Lao Lu, Lao Wang, Luo Ming and Li Xiu Daoist they invited.

They swaggered through the mountains with flashlights.

Old Lu led the way in front with a bag of tools, and walked in the mountains at night, which made it even more difficult for him.

Along the way, Luo Ming complained that the mountain road was difficult to walk.

Lao Wang was scolded by him so much that he couldn't say a word.

Occasionally, when he encountered a difficult road, he had to carry this young master on his back.

Luo Ming is a typical person with a lot of dishes and is afraid to meet Zhang Xu's grandfather.

In the midst of the noise, Lao Lu stopped, pointed to the nearby peach forest, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's where we see ghosts."

Li Xiu stepped forward and asked calmly, "Tell me about the ghost you saw at that time." ”

Everyone's eyes fell on Lao Wang. Lao Wang looked left and right, and said softly: "The grandfather we saw that day was wearing a red shroud when he was buried, holding two red lanterns in his hands, and his eyes were shining at night......

Ponfield frowned.

"The Red Shroud?"

Lao Lu explained: "We have a saying that wearing a red shroud can make the life of future generations prosperous. ”

Li Xiu pondered: "That's joy and sorrow. It's weird. In principle, there should be no ghosts left in the world. ”

Old Lou shrugged.

"Then I don't know. The guy is a widower. He may not be married yet, but his wish has been granted. ”

Li Xiu nodded: "If you have a wish, under certain conditions, it is easy to lead to this phenomenon."

Never mind. As long as I do it, I am not afraid of it and will not be afraid. “

He turned around and said, "Have you all taken the amulet paper I gave you?" ”

Several people patted their chests and said, "Take it and put it in your clothes." ”

Although Li Xiu said it well, Luo Ming still didn't trust him.

In his opinion, Li Xiutou wore a polo shirt and pants on such an occasion, and wore an armas belt around his waist, which was very disrespectful.

Maybe Li Xiu doesn't even have a uniform.

Luo Ming questioned, "Is that talisman paper useful?" Don't make fun of my precious life. ”

Li Xiu said firmly: "Luo Ming, don't worry, it will be useful."

Even if it doesn't work, I will stand in front of you and protect you. “

Li Xiu took out a short wooden sword, the purpose of which was to increase the confidence of the people.

He scratched twice with his claws, and the short wooden sword "clicked" into a long sword.

Lao Wang asked curiously, "Is this a peachwood sword?" How can it be retracted? ”

Li Xiu said seriously: "This is easy to carry. ”

Lao Wang and his wife nodded, unaware of the violence.

"Okay, I'll take out the compass to test the ghost's location."

Li Xiu took out a compass, held it in the palm of his hand, and stared at the pointer.

Lao Wang approached curiously.

"Li Xiu, why do you think your compass is still very new? It's not like a compass with history.

I seem to have seen a compass like this on some treasure. “

Li Xiu said impatiently: "Some things are not old, how can my compass be compared to those garbage things?" ”

Lao Wang said "oh", and then looked at him quietly.

Luo Ming, on the other hand, hid behind a tall, sturdy piece of old soil, which made him feel safer.

After a while, Lao Wang asked again.

"Li Xiu, why doesn't the pointer move?"

Li Xiu let out an unpleasant "shhh".

"Don't speak. This affects my observations. ”

As he spoke, his thumb gently tugged on a small switch on the side of the compass.

Almost at the same time, the needle on the compass began to shake wildly.

Li Xiu said solemnly: "We are here!" This ghost is stronger than I thought, its yin is strong......" he pointed firmly in one direction, "it's in that direction!" ”

They all clutched the amulet paper on their chests in fear.

The old king trembled.

"Li Xiu, that ghost is very powerful, you should protect us."

A smug look flashed on Li Xiu's face. The more scared they are, the happier they will be.

He makes money out of fear.

He took a few more steps in that direction, turning the compass switch up a gear, and the hands vibrated even more frantically, as if they were about to jump off the compass at any moment.

Li Xiu's face was gloomy as water.

"Damn!

This ghost is much more powerful than I thought. This is not an ordinary ghost, at least a ghost king!

You know, even hell is afraid of the ghost king.

This time, peace is too hard. Even if I tried my best, I wasn't sure I could win.

In addition, the amulet paper on your body may no longer work.

Accepting your order is really a loss for me. “

Luo Ming and the others were already scared. When they heard the news, they were even more scared.

"Lao Wang, look at what you have done. It's useless to ask for a bastard master. ”

Lao Wang bravely resisted the scolding, but now he could only say to Li Xiu with a smiling face: "Li Xiu, what should we do now?" ”

Li Xiu sighed.

"Right now, there's only one amulet paper that can help you, and that's the invisible amulet paper.

As long as you bring invisibility rune paper, ghosts and monsters won't see you for 24 hours.

However, invisible rune paper is not easy to draw. I have to draw with my heart. I can only draw three or four pieces a year, otherwise I will get seriously injured.

Therefore, the price is a bit expensive, 10,000 yuan a piece.

Ugly rhetoric is in front of us. You can do what you see fit. If you're scared, you can buy it. It's like more insurance.

You can't say I cheated on you. In fact, don't be afraid. I'll protect you. “

Lao Wang looked at Luo Ming with some embarrassment.

"Luo Min, what do you think?"

Luo Ming trembled and cursed.

"So, what are you waiting for? Buy one. Do you want me to be killed by a ghost? ”

Lao Wang and Lao Lu glanced at each other, and Lao Wang said yes: "Luo Ming, do you mean that there are two pieces missing?" My brother and I were scared too......"

Luo Ming said angrily: "You can buy it yourself!" It's none of my business! ”
