fierce cat

Chapter 55 Night

Qi'an remained silent, he made himself invisible in the darkness, as if he didn't exist.

Except for the irresistible, only warmth from the back, which cannot be ignored.

I don't know how long it has passed, Qi'an heard a call, "Qi'an."

"Meow~"

Mo Jinze put down the wolf lightly, and said, "The exit of this road is near the patrol pavilion of the wolf tribe, I..."

"Then let's go." Qi An said, he turned around and put his arms around Mo Jinze's neck, pulled Mo Jinze closer, lightly pecked his lips, and repeated, "Let's go."

After a long time, Mo Jinze replied: "...OK."

The two bowed three times on their knees, bid farewell to Mother Mo, and continued on this road.

Qi'an held Mo Jinze's hand tightly, "The poison on your body?"

"Wu Na has explained it to me, it's okay."

"That's good."

The sound of footsteps, breathing, and heartbeat are all hidden, there is no voice, no light, no end, a long road in the dark.

It was so quiet, and after another three days of walking, the road came to an end.

At the end is a wooden door, with three or two fireflies flying up and down at the door.

After driving for several days in a row, there was no sound or sight, and suddenly seeing something moving, it was almost an instinctive move, and the two of them shot almost at the same time, praying that An was slightly faster than Mo Jinze, and almost blocked Mo Jinze When he got down, he thought to himself: This speed of progress is too fast, just a little bit.

He said, "Apprentice, can you hear the sound of their wings beating?"

This wooden door is the end of the passage, but there is no sound inside or outside the wooden door, it is still silent.Mo Jinze withdrew his palm and became quiet again, just like these days.

When Qi An asked that sentence, he did not ask Mo Jinze for an answer.He stroked Mo Jinze's hair, plucked a few strands down, and made a small trick to get an oil lamp. The two of them used this lamp to see clearly the wooden door in front of them. There were criss-cross traces of spells on the wooden door , there is a firefly flying around in the center of every interlacing.

Before Mo Jinze could see the complete texture, Qi An waved to him, motioning him to follow suit.According to the appearance of these fireflies, he turned himself into a "firefly" in a similar manner, and turned around a few times in the place where the fireflies were flying, praying for An to transform back into a human form, and at the same time beckoning to Mo Jinze keep flying.

These illusive fireflies are the core of this wooden door formation, responsible for patrolling and reporting. Once one of them dies or the wooden door is pushed open, or someone approaches the door to communicate to the person who set up the ban.

To break the restriction is actually very simple and does not alarm the person who made the restriction. Just count how many fireflies there are, kill them all and replace them with fake ones, and then push the door open.

He didn't know how many times he broke this kind of pediatric prohibition back then.

Qi'an stretched out his hand and turned it into a cat's claw, exposing the tip of the claw. This kind of firefly transformed into a cat is very fragile, and it is easy to poke it.

Flying around the formation just now, I only counted them clearly. On the surface, there are only three or two, but in fact there are eighteen at this wooden door. He poked it, and Mo Jinze transformed into one to fill the empty space.Poke and fill one, although many such formations have been broken before, but this time inexplicably attracted his interest, Qi An was as excited as if he found a new fish pond, which was full of his favorite fish.

It's a pity that the game time is not long, and there are only [-] fireflies in total for him to fumble.After rattling, he floated out along the crack of the door, and opened the wooden door from the outside.

The wooden door is at the foot of an old tree. The old tree does not know how old it is. It has a thick trunk and lush branches and leaves. The lush leaves almost cover the nearby patrol pavilion.

Qi'an looked at the two characters written with a big brush on the pavilion, and frowned, exuding low air pressure all over his body.Mo Jinze crawled out from the wooden door, and felt that something was wrong with Qi'an, he was on alert immediately, his eyes patrolling around.

It was evening at this time, and a huge full moon was hanging in the sky, almost falling down, and the moonlight almost illuminated the entire mountain peak, including the patrol pavilion.

The lights, swords and swords that came down from the branches of the ancient trees scattered around the pavilion like shadows, allowing Mo Jinze to clearly see the word Xunting.

Standing under the pavilion, Mo Jinze could still feel his heart palpitations. The pavilion still had some influence on him, but it was not as heavy as before.

The surroundings were quiet, with occasional cicadas and birds chirping, and Qian took Mo Jinze's hand to leave this very weird place.

This should not be a key area for guards to patrol, and no one was seen for a long time.Qi'an didn't know where to go, the most important thing at the moment was to figure out the guard's patrol route and shift change time, and find out where Wei Xun was based on the deployment focus.

It's just that there is no one around, so I have to walk aimlessly in the mountains.

After walking for about half a quarter of an hour, the field of vision suddenly became empty, the trees were sparse, but the weeds were lush, occasionally dotted with one or two clusters of flowers.

Really, it's not common familiarity——

Qi'an tugged at Mo Jinze's finger, "Look at this place, isn't it familiar?"

Qi'an is purely looking for something to say, this is the hometown where Mo Jinze grew up, even if there are some changes, it is still familiar after all.That made him look a little stupid.

Just when he was secretly annoyed, Mo Jinze finally spoke, and said the first words in so many days, "I remember, this is the place where we first met."

Qi'an was stunned. In their previous chats, although the topic of "the past" was rarely touched, more or less due to various reasons, they still knew each other's past quite well.

In Qi'an's previous cognition, Mo Jinze's first memory of him should be in his small courtyard. It was the second time he escaped from the prison and broke into Mo Jinze's house by mistake. Unfortunately, Wei Xun Just happened to be there that day...

"At that time, when I took my sisters here to fish, I always felt that there was a pair of eyes looking at me from behind. I couldn't feel any malice from those eyes. I thought it was some friend's prank, but every time I turned around, I couldn't see anything. figure."

The two of them continued to walk forward as they spoke, and they reached the riverside within a short distance. There were big rocks beside the river, which were washed by the river for many years and were smooth and slippery. Mo Jinze held Qi'an's hand, and the two stood next to each other. Sitting on a rock.

"The plum blossom grove on the way, it made me see many hallucinations and memories. In my memory, when I looked back, there was a raccoon cat behind me, looking at me with wide-open eyes. Later, when I remembered the real memory, The one behind me at that moment is you, little master."

Qi An lazily leaned on Mo Jinze, using the person next to him as a cushion with confidence.

"Well, it's me. You guessed it right. In my memory, that was indeed the first time I saw you. Even if it's something as interesting as fishing, you can make it as boring as an endorsement."

Mo Jinze smiled silently, fishing is an elegant thing, suitable for meditation and peace of mind.Only in the eyes of cats, this is an active and interesting game.

"Pray for peace." Mo Jinze called softly.

"Ok?"

"I haven't eaten fish for a long time, do you want to eat?"

"Now?" Hearing the fish, Qian'an's eyes lit up.

"Yeah." Mo Jinze adjusted his sitting position so that Qi'an could lean on it more comfortably, "We have been walking in the mountains for a long time, but we didn't see any guards, which means that Wei Xun is not in the mountains, at least not near the river. There is no danger here, I'll grill fish for you."

Qi'an swallowed his saliva and closed his eyes, "No, after we kill Wei Xun, this river will be mine? You can eat whatever you want, and you haven't rested for days in the underground corridor. Get some sleep now."

"Okay then, when it's dawn, we'll pretend to go to the city to find out the news."

"Meow~"

After a brief greeting, Qi An went to sleep as soon as he said he would sleep, and when he fell asleep, he turned back into a cat shape and became paralyzed.Seeing that it was about to flow down the boulder, Mo Jinze scooped it up.

It is also uncomfortable to fall asleep on the stone, and the target is obvious.Sitting in the grass with his back against the stone, Mo Jinze hugged Qian'an into his arms, covered him with his clothes, and closed his eyes to rest.

Only when you have enough energy can you confront that person head-on.

The author has something to say:

_______ Extra "The Years Are Quiet" ________

100 years later.

Shancai Town, Jiangxi Province is a wealthy town with a population of [-] people all year round. Many merchants like to come here to buy goods.

In the east of Shancai Town, there is a tavern named Anze, which sells self-grown and self-brewed wine. When the lid of the wine jar is lifted, the aroma of the wine wafts out for ten miles.

The owner of the tavern heard that his family had come down in his early years, and he traveled around. He settled down after settling here five years ago. He is a very kind scholar and has a special cat-sucking physique. It’s fine if there are a dozen cats in the tavern. All the cats in the town like to run here when they are free.

Whenever new wine is out, cats can run much faster than people.

But most of the time, the cats can't get a taste of the wine. Among the dozen or so cats raised by the boss, there is a yellow raccoon cat, which has a particularly domineering and clingy personality.

According to the boss, the cat's name is Qi'an. Every time it appears, it is either on the boss's shoulder, or in the boss's arms, and once stepped on the boss's head. It is simply lawless.

Some people say let the boss teach the cat a lesson, otherwise what should I do?

However, before he finished speaking, he was frightened away by the cat's expression as if it was about to fight. At this time, the boss would pamper and hug the cat named Qi'an, and gently coax and persuade him until he calmed down.

Good owners and pets, just adjusted like this.

Zhang Taifu came to this town for the first time. Under the recommendation of a friend who is also a businessman, he stayed in a hotel on the east side of the town. Early the next morning, he woke up with a refreshing aroma of wine.

Opening the window, I wanted to see which tavern had opened up, but saw a surprising scene.

Looking around, the streets and roofs are full of cats in groups of three or four, and there are families with their families. A big cat is followed by three or five kittens that look very similar. These cats are without exception, all Go in one direction.

Zhang Taifu woke up his son, and the two of them hurriedly put on their clothes and went downstairs to that direction with the cats. Along the way, they saw many people, not to mention scholars, businessmen, and other servants, but there were still people in official clothes. Convinced, everyone is heading in the same direction.

This surprised the father and son even more.

Along the way, a tavern named Anze appeared in front of him. The tavern was not big, and it could even be said to be very small.

In front of the tavern, the first cats rushed over were blocked, and the crowd came after the cats. Zhang Taifu was short and disappeared in the crowd, but his son was tall, so let him watch the real-time broadcast for him.

Inside the open door of the tavern, there were two figures busy to and fro, and one of them had a fat cat on its back.

Some people in the crowd discussed, "It's not Qi'an. Fortunately, the way Qi'an looked at me last time scared me so much that I didn't sleep well for several days."

"The Qi'an cat has a normal body and has muscles, but if you look at this cat, you can see that it is overnourished. It should be Qi'an's younger brother, Qi Pang. When I went to the field last month, I saw this cat. It’s almost impossible to walk.”

"Fat is a blessing, this cat looks very happy."

"Happiness is a ghost. If you are so fat, you will get sick easily. If the owner really cares about it, you should lose weight for it."

In the house, the young man reached behind his back and pulled the cat off. Only then did he see that there was a rope around the cat's neck, and the other end was tied to the young man's arm. The rope was very short. Basically, the young man took two steps , the cat had to take a step, and in just a short while, the cat was slipped out of breath.

There is a chair at the door of the store, and a pregnant female cat is lying on the chair, napping lazily.

The cats blocking the door did not come forward to grab the territory, nor did they try to break into the house.

Soon, the young man walking the cats came out with a large box in one hand and a huge food bucket in the other, and the cats automatically gave way.

The young man took out a cat bowl from the box and put it on the ground, then scooped a spoonful of food into the bowl, called a name, and the cat whose name was called would come forward excitedly, lean into the cat bowl and start eating wildly.

Probably because he was too involved in eating, Zhang Taifu couldn't help swallowing, and sniffed it vigorously. It smelled like wine brewed with fish, so he really wanted to taste it.

There was not enough space in front of the door, and following the young man's order, the cats who hadn't eaten spontaneously picked up the cat bowls and followed the young man to another open space, waiting to be fed.

A person beside him sighed, "Even though I've watched it dozens of times, I still can't help sighing every time I see it. These cats must be fine."

Zhang Taifu took another look at the chubby cat who was forced to follow the young man. The chubby cat tried to steal food several times, but the young man caught him. He didn't succeed once.

The young man kicked her, and the fat cat reluctantly got up, continued to follow the young man, and tried to steal food again after a while.

Zhang Taifu touched his big belly and thought for a while, if he loses weight and has the perseverance of a little fat man to steal food, he must be the most beautiful man among businessmen now.

At this time, the crowd became restless again, and at the entrance of the tavern, another young man walked out of the tavern effortlessly with a large jar of wine in his arms.According to the people next to him, this is the owner of this tavern.

Zhang Taifu stood on tiptoe to measure his height with his eyes. Good guy, this must be six feet tall.

The boss glanced at the crowd, then moved out a wine jar from the house, and carried out a big box similar to the one that the young man was holding just now. What is this for?

"The new variety of wheat wine is ready to drink. I invite all neighbors to taste the first batch of wine. I am very grateful for your care in the past few years."

Zhang Taifu opened his eyes wide and lined up spontaneously following the movements of the crowd. People in the line stepped forward one by one to drink and taste.

When there were three more people and it was his turn, the boss suddenly stopped drinking, and Zhang Taifu started to grab his son's clothes in a hurry, and the wine worm in his stomach was about to grow.On the contrary, what should I do if I can't drink it?Can you buy it?Any amount will do!

"Jia Ren, you robbed Widow Li of two coins in Zhenxi ten days ago, have you paid them back?"

Huh, this is it?Zhang Taifu looked at the person in front of him, with pointed ears and a slender neck, he seemed to be fine just looking at his back.

That Jia Ren laughed, "I paid it back, I paid it back a long time ago."

As soon as the sound came out, Zhang Taifu had goosebumps on his skin, rooster? This is, it sounds very uncomfortable.

"Really? Then why are you stealing her and her daughter's clothes?"

Jia Ren shook his head, like a mangy dog, "I'll pay it back, it's all paid back, can you give me some wine?"

The yamen servant behind Zhang Taifu walked out of the line, stepped forward and grabbed Jia Ren's clothes, and shouted: "Before I beat you up and said that the master wronged you, now I finally admit it, come with me!"

The boss helped catch a murderer?Zhang Taifu looked at the boss, and saw the boss scooped up a bowl of wine and handed it to the servant, "Thanks for your hard work."

Others around seemed to be familiar with this situation, and Zhang Taifu was amazed.

The moment the yamen servant picked up the wine bowl to drink, the man named Jia Ren kicked the yamen servant and was about to run away. Zhang Taifu's eyes widened and he couldn't let this man run away!

However, within two steps of running, Jia Ren was stepped on by the young man who returned after feeding the cat.

……

It wasn't until noon that the crowd in Anze Tavern slowly dispersed. Zhang Taifu and his father watched it all morning, and they were very surprised.

After discussion, the father and son decided to come to this tavern to drink again in the afternoon, buy a few jars of good wine and go back to taste slowly.

When I came to the door again in the afternoon, the pregnant cat at the door was moved into the house. The fat cat surrounded the chair, licking and licking the cat for a while, feeding the cat with a water basin for a while, and the boss sat behind the cash register holding a book Look, I took a glance at the fat cat, and said helplessly, "Qi Pang, your belly is bigger than Rou Rou's pregnant belly."

The fat cat faced the boss's shoulder and let out a grievance. There was a yellow raccoon cat lying on the boss's shoulder. According to the waiter in the hotel, this was the shop's main cat——Qian.

I saw Qi'an lazily jumping off the boss's shoulders, jumping off the cash register with the rope in his mouth, dragging the fat cat around the store, compulsively losing weight.

Zhang Taifu couldn't help being curious, "How could this cat be so fat?"

"He had an accident in the early years, and his stomach has always been bad, so he had to take care of it carefully. Later, after he recovered from his illness, he ate twice every three days, and he couldn't control it." The boss shook his head and took out the wine they wanted from the display cabinet. .

The son couldn't help admiring: "Boss, you are so strong, you can carry so much wine without breathing at all."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Until they left Shancai Town, Zhang Taifu and his son never forgot this miraculous experience, thinking of coming to Shancai Town again when they have time.

---

The next day, Widow Li and her daughter came to thank her.

Widow Li's husband left early, and she brought up her daughter single-handedly. Her daughter is now 14 years old, and a rascal like Jia Ren began to try to get her daughter's idea. Boss Mo is young, talented and capable Well, she came to the door today, first to express her gratitude, and second, to find out for her daughter, if her daughter can marry Boss Mo, that would be a great thing.

Widow Li had a good idea, and she thought of five or six tentative methods before she came to the door. It is well known that Boss Mo has no wife. Whether his wife has passed away or has never been married, Boss Mo is a person worth entrusting for life.

This was what Widow Li thought before entering the door. When she saw the young man sitting on Boss Mo's lap after entering the door, Widow Li still had some illusions.

It may be that she and her daughter moved too lightly, or it may be that the other two people in the store were too involved and did not notice them.

Widow Li: "Mo..."

The following words were firmly pressed back into the stomach by the scene in front of him, and when he said it again, it was completely different from before.

The two handsome young men, with their eyes closed, devoted themselves to it.

The little girl led by Widow Li opened her eyes wide. What are the two brothers doing?

Mo Jinze was the first to discover them. Mo Jinze was so blocked that he almost choked on his own saliva. He hurriedly pushed Qi'an away, pretending that nothing happened just now, "Li Aunt, why are you here?"

"Ah? Ah, that, that Jia Ren was taken away. I brought Fangfang here to express my gratitude." Widow Li stuttered for a while, then suddenly remembered, oh, she brought sauce Here comes the beef.

He hurriedly took the beef from his daughter, "Here, this is a little sauced beef I made. It tastes good. Give it to Boss Mo."

"Auntie, you are too polite. The fewer people like that, the safer the town will be. I didn't do anything, but he just happened to come to my place for a drink, and the government officials arrested him."

Fangfang had never seen anyone prettier than Boss Mo and the handsome guy behind the counter in this small town. She was fascinated by it for a while, and saw that handsome guy jumping over the counter in a particularly unruly manner, jumping out from inside, first Mo The boss took the sauced beef one step at a time, and praised: "It smells so good."

"That's it." Fangfang was very proud, "My mother and I did it with our own hands."

The handsome guy gave her a thumbs up very face-saving.

Boss Mo shook his head, and stopped saying no, but still took out five coins from behind the counter, "Auntie, this is for you, don't refuse, you and Fangfang still have to live, and besides, the beef is not good. Easy, this scent is probably worth more than five silver coins."

After a while of back and forth, the smell of beef wafting from the house became stronger. Mo Jinze turned around and saw that Qi'an had already opened the bag, calling for his friends who were basking in the sun inside and outside the shop to eat together.

Mo Jinze: "..."

Five coins turned into three coins, and Aunt Li finally accepted it.

Mo Jinze sent Aunt Li's mother and daughter away, and before he even stepped into the store, he heard Qi'an's voice, "It smells so good, Fatty, do you want to eat it?" Before Qi's fat could answer, Qi'an sighed again: "Oh, it's a pity that you are losing weight, you can't eat, it's a pity, it's a pity."

Mo Jinze: "..."

More than 100 years ago, Qi'an was not like this. At that time, Qi'an didn't like to laugh, was unkind, and ungrateful. Except for a little affection for Qi Fat, he was almost a numb machine.

Fortunately, after 100 years, he finally walked into the heart of this vicious kitten. Along the way, he healed the wounds in each other's hearts.

Mo Jinze hadn't entered the house for a long time, and there was a voice calling from the tavern, "Boss, come in to wash the dishes."

"Oh, here we come."

"The beef tastes very good. I left half a bowl for you, put it in the cabinet behind the counter, and specially sealed it. Remember to eat it after washing the bowl in a while."

"Understood." Mo Jinze put away the clean bowls that the cats ate, and walked to the kitchen at the back. Before he went out, Qi'an's roar suddenly sounded in the room, "Pray for fat!"

Mo Jinze looked back, as if he knew that his brother would hide the remaining sauced beef in the cabinet. Qi Pang dragged his fat body into the cabinet at some point, and Qi An sealed the cabinet outside. Unable to stop him from stealing food inside, when he heard the noise and opened the cabinet, more than half of the beef had been eaten, and when he was caught, Qi Pang still had a bone in his mouth.

"You're done for today! Let me tell you, your belly is fatter than Rourou's now, how many babies are you pregnant with? Huh? You're fined to run two kilometers in the backyard, supervised by other cats, and you won't be allowed to have dinner if you don't finish the run!"

Ever since, a group of cats drove Qi Pang past Mo Jinze's feet. Mo Jinze shook his head helplessly. After Qi Pang recovered from his mental illness, his gastrointestinal problems quickly recovered under careful care, but The problem of eating too much and being lazy may be born. If you don’t pay attention to it, you will get fat. Now the skill of stealing is so good that you can’t control it. Qi’an has asked a blacksmith to help fix the cage, and it should be delivered in three or four days.

"Let's go."

"Where are you going?" Qi'an suddenly lay on Mo Jinze's body from behind, interrupting Mo Jinze's memory.

"Where can I go? The sauced beef is gone. I can only wash the dishes. Let's go with you."

"it is good."

In the yard, under the supervision of all the cats, Qi Pang was walking hummingly, Qi Rou also came over, and found a comfortable place to nest in the porch, with a few seedless berries on hand, praying Every time Fat runs a lap, he will be given one.

Qi'an took Mo Jinze's hand through the corridor and into the kitchen. Soon, the crisp sound of washing dishes sounded like a brisk song, resounding in the backyard of the small Anze Tavern.

The years are quiet and good, which is probably the case.
