Become a cat [Zhan Zhao]

Rain, rain, downpour.

The strong wind howled and shook the mountains and forests, and the night could not help but cover the entire land.Zhan Zhao fastened on the mountain road with his bamboo hat on, cursing bad luck in his heart.Yesterday, Fang and Bao announced that he was going to go back to his hometown to visit the grave, but he didn't expect to encounter this heavy rain just as he left.

However, there is no way it will rain.Even if he is Nan Xia, even if he is Yumao, even if he is the emperor's father, there is no way to prevent the rain from the sky.So Zhan Zhao could only scold the thief in his heart, while looking far away, trying to find a place to shelter from the rain.

I don't know if God heard the complaints in Zhan Zhao's heart, just heard a loud "bang", a thunderbolt struck straight down, and the bright electric light actually reflected half of the mountain pale.

Zhan Zhao suddenly thumped in his heart.

Just now, with a glimpse of lightning, he seemed to see a person standing by the side of the road.

It is said that if you walk a lot at night, you will inevitably encounter ghosts.But Zhan Zhao is a person who only asks about common people and doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, so he just frowned his pretty brows and looked in that direction again.

This time, even without flashes, Zhan Zhao could see clearly.

It is indeed a person, a short, stooped woman who has lived for an unknown age-commonly known as an old woman, and in this situation, perhaps she can be called Shanbao.

Night rain, barren hills, old woman.Putting these things together, it is inevitable that people will have some unpleasant associations.Even though Zhan Zhao was always bold, he couldn't help feeling a little creepy at this moment.However, he didn't show anything on his face, and even dared to take a few steps forward, and said in a calm and composed voice, "Mother-in-law, why are you on this mountain road in such a heavy rain? But you got lost?"

Shan Lao grinned, showing her scarlet gums that had lost all her teeth, she said in a hoarse and old voice that could be heard clearly even in the wind and rain, "No, youngster, mother-in-law is waiting for you."

Zhan Zhao twitched his eyebrows and asked, "What are you waiting for me for? I have never met my mother-in-law, so what is it worth for my mother-in-law to wait for me alone in the wind and rain?"

Grandma Shan stretched out a skinny finger and pointed at Zhan Zhao, and said with a strange smile, "You don't know me, but I know you. You are a dignified Nan Xia, who was granted the imperial cat title, and is a fourth-rank imperial guard with a sword. Hey, what a big name, what a great prestige."

As soon as the words fell, there was another thunder, and the icy rain also chilled people's hearts.Zhan Zhao narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the opposite person through the heavy rain curtain, thinking to himself, he didn't know that this old woman was not a good person.

Even if the visitor is not kind, is he still afraid that she will fail?Zhan Zhao became famous at a young age, and experienced countless vicious battles in the world, but he really didn't pay attention to the dying woman in front of him.

"If mother-in-law is fine, then I'll take my leave first." Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows arrogantly, and was about to walk past her.However, as he passed by, he heard Shan Baba's gloomy voice ringing in his ears, with a strange tone:

"You are so fickle, you actually broke my daughter's heart. Now the retribution has finally come, and I will punish you to turn into a cat, a white-footed civet cat."

Hearing her talk of absurdity, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but sneered.Unexpectedly, as soon as Grandma Shan finished speaking, his eyes suddenly went dark, and his whole body felt like a burning pain, he only groaned and threw himself down.Zhan Zhao murmured in his heart that it was not good, he only thought that he had been plotted against, but he couldn't move, so he could only let others slaughter him.

Amidst the burning pain, a vague voice whispered in his ear: "Half a day to be a cat, half a day to be a human. If you don't have a daughter who loves you, scare you, you will be a cat for the rest of your life."

"Meow!" There was only a shrill meow, which was instantly overshadowed by the sound of thunder and rain.Looking at the mountain road, there was no one else, only a palm-sized white-footed civet cat lying on the ground, its fur was drenched by the rain.

Zhan Zhao opened his eyes again, and first saw a huge boulder, and a clump of soaring vegetation squeezed against it.He couldn't help but quickly got up and took a few steps back, but slipped on the muddy mountain path, his legs and feet were so weak that he could hardly stand.

... Zhan Zhao felt that something was wrong. He lowered his head and saw two fluffy forelimbs, and behind him, two fluffy hind limbs and a fluffy tail.

Zhan Zhao closed his eyes, silently recited "Illusion, Illusion", and then opened his eyes, the fluffy place was still fluffy, at most it was more wet and covered with more mud spots.

Damn it, Zhan Zhao's hair almost exploded—if he hadn't been drenched to the bone—how could he have turned into a cat?Even if he is nicknamed "Royal Cat", he is still a living person!How could it be possible to become a cat?Or a white-footed civet cat? !

Thinking of this, Zhan Zhao suddenly thought of Shan Lao's words before, and couldn't help but tremble all over.He anxiously turned around in a circle, but he didn't see the old woman again.

The rain got heavier, and Zhan Zhao sneezed violently.He used to be a Nanxia with high martial arts skills and a body of copper and iron, but now he has become a big milk cat. If he stays in this violent wind and rain for a long time, he will probably freeze to death first.

A man can bend and stretch. Although he has become a cat, Zhan Zhao is still a man. He wisely realizes that the most urgent thing is to find a place to shelter from the rain first, and then make a long-term plan.So he took his four short legs unskillfully, and trotted along the slippery mountain path step by step.

"Ouch!" A voice suddenly sounded not far away, followed by footsteps and splashes of muddy water.Hearing the sound, Zhan Zhao raised his head, and saw a pair of bare feet, ragged trousers rolled up on his calves, and a scabbed wound on his half-exposed knee.

"Cat, cat, are you as lost as I am?" The voice sounded from above, with a bit of panting, "Oh, I blame the terrible weather, what a fucking bad luck."

Zhan Zhao suddenly felt dizzy, and was hugged by someone.He yelled, only to make a faint meow.

"Don't be afraid, I'll take you to find a place to shelter from the rain." The man seemed to notice that the cat in his arms was struggling, and he stroked the fur on the kitten's back comfortingly, "You are so young, you are walking with your mother." Scattered, or was it discarded?"

Zhan Zhao: "..." He struggled for a long time, and then sadly realized that he couldn't even deal with an ordinary person who didn't know martial arts. He couldn't help giving up resistance in frustration, lowered his head and silently lay in the man's arms .

It turned out to be quite warm, and the man raised a hand to protect him from the rain.

"Fuck, this road is really dark." The man was still chattering, I don't know if he was talking to himself or talking to the cat in his arms, "I was hoping to go up the mountain to hunt a rabbit or something to satisfy my hunger. It's good now, I didn't catch anything, and I was soaked in water. Chicken... Damn, I'm so hungry."

Zhan Zhao silently rolled his eyes.

"Hey, cat, you're not going to die, are you?" The man suddenly tugged at Zhan Zhao's ear, "Why is there no movement all of a sudden?"

Zhan Zhao yelled in protest, but what came out was still a childish "meow".He closed his mouth in despair, pretending that everything was a nightmare.

"So you're asleep, so I won't disturb you." The man quickened his pace and started running on the mountain road.Probably because he was afraid that he would run too fast and drop the kitten, so the man hugged the kitten vigorously in his arms.

"Meow!" Zhan Zhao pulled himself up violently, and belatedly, sadly and desperately, he discovered that the person holding him—whose voice sounded young—was, unexpectedly, not a boy.

"Don't move around, fall down carefully." She also threatened Zhan Zhao, "You are so young, if you spend a night in the rain on the mountain, you will definitely be a snack for the big tiger tomorrow. Come with me, follow me. Meat to eat."

Weird.

Zhan Zhao shrunk his body as much as possible, not letting himself touch the soft body of the other party.

"By the way, my name is Alan." She twittered, panting from running, and opened her mouth, "What's your name? Let me give you a name."

Zhan Zhao: "..."

"What's your name, cat?" A Lan said, shaking her head, vetoing herself, "You have no personality, so you can't show your specialness. Hey, you are still a white-footed civet cat, don't be an unfamiliar one."

Zhan Zhao sneered in his heart, but he did not answer haughtily—of course, the answer would only be "meow" or "meow", Nan Xia said that he would never want to speak in his life.

A Lan suddenly cheered in a low voice: "Look, there is a ruined temple! It's an old man's temple!"

Sure enough, not far away, a low ruined temple loomed indistinctly.The wind and rain were raging, and A Lan could barely open his eyes, and ran towards the cat with his head in his arms.Seeing that he was about to reach the door, he tripped suddenly, and Ah Lan fell out like a sack.

"Ouch!" She cried out in pain, cursed a few words, and hurried to see how the cat was doing.The cat is pitifully small, don't let her be crushed to death.

"Meow!" Zhan Zhao shook his hair violently, shaking off the muddy water, then raised his eyes angrily and stared at Alan.Now he finally saw Alan's face, it was a teenager who hadn't grown up yet, with round eyes, a small nose, and red lips.This mouth was opening and closing, and she chattered and said rudely: "Damn, I fell to my death. Are you okay?" She picked up Zhan Zhao and rubbed it from the beginning to the end. She didn't see the cat. Is there anything wrong, and I was scratched severely.

I finally entered the ruined temple, and it turned out that it was also "raining" inside, but it was light rain anyway.Alan wanted to find a place where the rain leakage was not so serious, but the place was in disrepair for a long time, and it was God's favor if it didn't collapse, so she could only shrink under the altar in the end.

The dirty and blackened yellow tablecloth hangs down, creating a quiet little world.A Lan wiped her face, and saw the kitten she picked up halfway was licking her fur.

"You like to be clean." A Lan reached out to hug the cat, but the cat quickly avoided it.

Zhan Zhao glared viciously at the woman who tried to moles him repeatedly, and insisted on keeping a safe distance from her.

A Lan sighed, hugging herself into a ball with her hands and feet.She was soaked through, and she was very uncomfortable at the moment, guessing that the cat disliked her, so she didn't force it.

"It's better to be a cat, just shake its fur when it's raining." A Lan said, suddenly sneezed a little.

Zhan Zhao sneered again in his heart: If you want to be a cat, I'll give it to you.

But this time God didn't hear Zhan Zhao's heartfelt voice, or if he heard it, he ignored it.Anyway, cats are still cats, people are still people, and their identities have not been exchanged.

"It's really cold." A Lan murmured, looking at the cat with a pair of round black eyes, "Are you cold?"

Zhan Zhao also rolled himself into a ball and was taking a nap with his tail in his arms. Hearing A Lan's whisper, he opened his eyes and glanced at the half-grown child.

She was indeed in a mess, her wet hair stuck to her face, and her clothes were still dripping.However, there seemed to be a smile in Ah Lan's eyes, looking at the cat that was his companion, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Zhan Zhao rolled his eyes again: Don't be an idiot, this kid is still laughing after being so unlucky.

However, he still went to Ah Lan's side after all, thinking that she would give him a ride-although he was forced to, but a man should distinguish between grievances and grievances-so he would give her a good face up.

Alan saw the cat move forward, then moved again, and finally lay on his arm, couldn't help but rolled his eyes with a smile.She stretched out a finger and gently stroked the yellow hair on the top of the cat's head, and said in a low voice, "I was abandoned by my parents, and you were also abandoned by my parents. We are brothers and sisters, why don't we be companions?" good?"

Zhan Zhao gave Alan a cold look, turned his head away and didn't bother to talk to her.

A-lan didn't think this cat was too cold, but thought this tsundere little cat was quite cute.She smoothed the cat's fur one by one, feeling the small, warm body under her palm.

Zhan Zhao hid a few times at first, but the child was quite determined and insisted on touching him.After all, Zhan Zhao staged a big transformation today. Being a cat for the first time, he was exhausted physically and mentally, and he fell asleep just like that after being touched comfortably by A Lan.

When he opened his eyes again, the sky was bright, he was hugged by A Lan, and he didn't know where to go.

"Meow!" Zhan Zhao struggled to poke his head out, and saw that they had already entered the city, looking at the surrounding scenery, it looked like a small county town near Kaifeng Mansion.I saw a slate street washed clean by the rain, a big tree with luxuriant leaves and verdant verdure, a few playful urchins under the slanting eaves, and loud hawkers hawking from time to time in the distance.

"Hey, Alan!" A few teenagers suddenly walked towards him, also in tattered clothes, but with sticks in their hands.

A Lan stopped in her tracks and snorted softly, "What's the matter?"

"You went up the mountain yesterday, and you were not struck to death by lightning?" The young boy in the lead said angrily, "It's really God's eyes, why didn't you be struck to death."

Alan pursed her lips, the little rascal opposite was called San Biaozi, and she hadn't dealt with her since she was a child.They are all street vagrants, who don't have enough to eat or wear warmly, and they can beat their heads to the point of bleeding just for a piece of cold steamed bun.A Lan had fought with San Biaozi before, and with her agility, she often made San Biaozi overwhelmed.

This time, the little bastard probably asked someone to find a place.Damn, really back.Alan put the cat down casually, folded her arms and raised her chin: "Haven't you heard of it? A good man doesn't live long, and a disaster lasts for a thousand years. You're not dead yet, how could I be willing to close my eyes."

San Biaozi sneered: "You can't escape the beating today even if you talk like crazy. Brothers are here today to deal with you, a bastard with no eyes. If you kneel on the ground obediently and let the men beat you, You can save half your life."

Zhan Zhao at the side: "..."

If he wasn't a cat now, he might not have laughed when he heard the young man say such harsh words.However, looking at Ah Lan's thin body, Zhan Zhao couldn't help but feel worried about her.

"If you have the guts, go for it. Talking is nothing." Ah Lan loses but not loses. Apart from his fists, his mouth is also hard.

San Biaozi heard a strange cry, several teenage children rushed up, picked up sticks and started beating.

Zhan Zhao crouched at the side and swept the formation, originally thinking that Ah Lan was so unruffled in the face of danger, that he possessed unique skills.Unexpectedly, as soon as he started to move, Alan was hit with a few sticks. Although he managed to avoid the head and face, he was beaten severely.

Zhan Zhao: "..."

Originally, he didn't take the children's fights seriously. After all, when Zhan Zhao was Nan Xia, he never had the chance to see anything like this.However, the situation was really one-sided. Alan was no match for four hands with two fists, and was almost beaten by the opponent.The more Zhan Zhao looked at it, the angrier he became, he wished he could go up and throw those little bastards away, telling them not to bully the little ones, let alone girls.

However, Zhan Zhao is just a cat now, thinking about it is really aggrieved.His claws were firmly digging on the ground, and his upper body had already leaned out, staring at the little hooligan fighting in front of him.

You idiot, don't just show your fists, but kick them!Yes, kick him head-on bone.Hide, you fucking hide!Damn, how many people are there?

Zhan Zhao was so angry that he couldn't hold back his stomach, and even cursed foul words in his heart.He jumped up suddenly, grabbed San Biaozi's arm and swung his claws fiercely, leaving three bloodstains on the opponent's face.

The two groups of people who were fighting fiercely didn't pay attention to the humble kitten. They only heard San Biaozi scream, and then he covered his face and shook his arm violently.A palm-sized cat turned over in the air and landed firmly on the ground, then arched its back and made a threatening sound from its throat.

"This dead cat is with the little bastard!" San Biaozi yelled, "Kill it!"

Alan, who had already died, suddenly turned pale with fright, and rushed over to hug the cat in his arms.There was a "bang", and the stick fell hard on Alan's back, hitting her directly on the ground.
