Chapter 51: The Nine Lives Cat Demon Breaks the Seal
In the 80s and 90s, Hong Kong Island, once known as one of the four Asian tigers, had rapid economic development, and construction teams were engaged in large-scale construction everywhere.
"Boom Boom~"
In an abandoned gravel mine, several large excavators were working non-stop, one of which suddenly stopped after passing a mud pit.
"Uncle Can, Uncle Can!
Looking at the blue arc around the mud pit, the excavator driver hurriedly jumped out of the cab and shouted to the engineering leader in the distance.
"Oh, it's okay, it's just a stone, everyone will be fine if you carry him away!"
After some machine inspection and confirmed that there was no problem, the engineering leader smiled and waved his hand, and then called the surrounding workers over.
"Come on, come on, let's lift this stone together! Lift! Lift! Lift! Hey, how can there be a talisman?"
When the project leader instructed the workers to work, he fixed his eyes and found an old talisman on the stone, and even though he reached out curiously and tore it off.
"Bang~!boom~!"
At the moment when the talisman seal was torn off, the mountain rocks not far away suddenly exploded, and the obvious tremor that accompanied it made a group of people sway left and right and almost couldn't stand steadily.
"Haha, it's nothing, it's just a rock blast, come on, come on, everyone continue to carry it!"
After a few breaths, the ground returned to calm, and the project leader beckoned the people to continue their work, and in a few moments moved the stone aside.
"Wow, this hole is so deep, you can't see the bottom!"
After the stone was removed, the workers gathered around to look at the large hole under the stone, but at that moment, a blue light suddenly rose from the hole, gathered above it and formed a terrifying cat's head.
"Ah~, help~"
"Run, there's a monster here!"
“......”
Seeing this scene, the workers were immediately frightened, and hurriedly crawled one by one, crying and fleeing in all directions, leaving a messy construction site.
"Knock Knock Knock!"
Under the sonorous sound of gongs and drums and the passionate suona, the two martial artists on the stage were fighting fiercely, and the audience applauded enthusiastically.
But under this noisy voice, a man who had just arrived at the age of the sixtieth birthday could still pretend to sleep, and his expressionless face seemed to be uninterested in anything.
"Huh~!"
When the opera was nearing its end, the man suddenly opened his eyes and raised his head suddenly, attracting a sideways glance from the breeze beside him who was watching the opera with relish.
"What's wrong with Senior Zhang?"
Seeing that the other party showed a panicked but slightly excited expression, Qingfeng couldn't help but ask curiously.
"After waiting for you for fifty years, you finally appeared!"
When the man heard this, he didn't pay attention to Qingfeng, but muttered to himself, and hurriedly got up and ran out of the hall, forgetting to even carry the documents next to him.
"Alas~"
Seeing this, Qingfeng shook his head and sighed, turning his head to look at the document that had been blown open by the other party.
I saw that on the first page was a photo of the man, and on the back was written some case information such as his name Zhang Dashao, the condition and advanced liver cancer.
"Senior Zhang, could it be that the nine-life cat demon that your Zhang family has been chasing and killing for generations has appeared?"
Walking into Zhang Dashao's room, Qingfeng slowly put the documents on the table, and then asked Zhang Dashao, who had just pulled out a large box from under the bed.
The situation of the other party, since Qingfeng became the vice president, Yuan Xiangren has already informed him in detail, and he is very aware of the grievances and hatreds of his ancestors and the nine-life cat demon for four hundred years.
And with so many clues to remind him, Qingfeng naturally won't forget the movie called "Fierce Cat" in his mind, as well as the ferocious and violent performance of the cat demon.
"That's right, our Zhang family has been chasing and killing that cat demon for four hundred years, killing it eight times, each time it costs the lives of a generation, cause and effect have long been engraved into the bloodline, this time I must go to avenge my father!"
Zhang Dashao nodded when he heard this, and as he spoke, he placed the box on the table, patted away the floating soil deposited on the surface, and then opened it, revealing the black strong bow and three runic arrows inside.
"What a heavy!"
When the box was opened, Qingfeng suddenly felt a strong evil aura rushing towards his face, and the mana in his body flowed before suppressing the power of this killing weapon.
"The body of this magic weapon is contaminated with the eight lives of our Zhang family from generation to generation, as well as the eight demon souls of that cat demon, and the evil aura is naturally thick!" Zhang Dashao stroked the bow and arrow and recalled.
"Oh, I don't know what grievances the ancestors have with this cat demon, and they can be chased from the mainland all the way to this small Hong Kong Island!"
Qingfeng began to ask sideways, the reason why he served as this vice president was to find out some past secrets from the mouths of these seniors.
But after a few days of visiting, he didn't get much useful information, and the only thing he might know was Zhang Dashao, who was still secret, but because he was suffering from cancer, he became ignorant of the world and rarely communicated with Qingfeng.
"Alas~, I'm going to die soon, anyway, since you want to know, it doesn't hurt to tell you!"
Zhang Dashao, who had rediscovered his goal in life, sighed lightly, and then opened his mouth slightly ashamed and said:
"If you want to talk about the grievances between our Zhang family and the cat demon, it can be traced back to the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty five hundred years ago, when the cultivation world had not yet withered like now."
"In addition to the large and small sects, there are also many scattered cultivators, and there are many ordinary people in the world who are looking for immortals~"
"At that time, there was a warrior surnamed Song, who found a sect that was passed down by a woman in the mountains and mountains, and made his master have feelings for him."
"It was supposed to be a pair of immortal couples, but who thought that the warrior surnamed Song had the ambition of the wolf son, and couldn't stand the loneliness and abstinence in the mountains, so he actually poisoned it on the important night of the woman's cultivation breakthrough and then killed him!"
"But what the samurai didn't expect was that a civet cat who had been with the woman all the year round had already opened his mind and looked at his evil deeds in his eyes!"
"Later, the samurai returned to the mortal world, and the spirit cat also practiced hard because of the hatred in his heart, and after decades of cultivation, he wanted to seek revenge on the samurai!"
"But at that time, the samurai was already dying, and where was he still the opponent of the cat demon, so he spent a lot of money to invite my ancestor who had just been expelled from the wall gate by Maoshan to come up and eliminate the demon!"
"And my ancestor was also carried away by desire, and wanted to use the Nine Lives Cat Demon to cultivate a secret method, but in the end, because of insufficient cultivation, he died with him, leaving only a child less than ten years old!"
"Then, our Zhang family formed an undying hatred with the cat demon, chasing from the mainland to Hong Kong Island, and has been entangled for more than 400 years!"
"Fifty years ago, in order to kill the cat demon, I witnessed my father die in front of me, I thought that I would never be able to fulfill my father's request, but I didn't expect it to break the seal at this time!"
After Zhang Dashao finished saying to Qingfeng, he picked up the box on the table and the sorted magic utensils and walked out, wanting to trace the traces of the cat demon to avenge his father.
