meow

What will happen to the remaining villagers after this is not in the consideration of the drug seller. After Shiche disappeared, he left the village before the survivors could react.Pickle returned to the top of the medicine box, gnawing on his claws that were peeled off due to excessive force. After the old nails fell off, new claws that were sharper and brighter would be exposed.Although the vegetable cat's claws didn't work, it gnawed very seriously, and the teeth and claws made a rattling sound.

The road down the mountain is very steep, especially the muddy road after the rain. The villagers who have lived on the mountain for a long time will slip and slip, but the medicine seller walks very steadily, his legs seem to be glued to the road.But the pickles lying on the medicine box were not so lucky. The whole cat slid down along with the medicine box, and was stopped by the neck of the drug seller.

"Meow."

After stabilizing his body, Pickle simply climbed onto the drug seller's shoulders. In order not to be thrown off, its claws tightly hooked the opponent's clothes, and directly pulled the gorgeous kimono out of the thread.The drug seller paused slightly, and glanced at it sideways, but he didn't stop it, but the pickles didn't know how to restrain themselves, and jumped onto his head with a kick of his legs.

"..."

Cats just like to stand on a high place and look down. The position above the drug dealer's head is very good, but the person who is used as a table mat is not in a good mood, so he directly pulls the cat and his scarf off.

"Meow?"

Cai Cai likes to stay on top.

The little kitten struggled while held on his arm, but this time the drug seller wouldn't let it go.

Pickle didn't know where to go to find his mother in the future, and the drug seller didn't know where the next monster was, but he walked through the mountains without any pointing signs as if he wouldn't get lost, and soon came to the mountain After that, he stopped on a river bank.

Maybe it's because it's too remote. There are no traces left by humans in this area. The drug seller walked to the river and wiped his face with clean water. The makeup on his face faded away, but it was automatically reapplied soon. , the reflection of that impeccable face on the water surface.

Pickles jumped down from the medicine box and lost interest after finding that the drawer containing the balance could not be opened. It ran to the river, tentatively scratched the floating leaves with its paws, and moved the pebbles it stepped on. , the cat almost fell into the water.Originally, it only reflected the water surface of the drug dealer, and then a cat's head emerged. Pickle stared at the cat in the water, and then found that the cat suddenly turned into a little girl with black hair and cat ears.

"Meow?!" Pickle was startled, and hurriedly shrank her head back, and the little girl in the water did the same, showing a surprised expression with her ears flattened.Cai Cai quickly discovered that the person in the water was following her. When it stretched out its claws, she also stretched out its hands. When it moved its ears, she moved its ears too.

Hmph, why are you learning vegetables, you are hairless!

The fluffy Cai Cai raised her paw to touch her face, her face froze with pride, she scratched vigorously, but found that the hand felt smooth, not as fluffy as she had imagined.Only then did Pickle lower her head belatedly, and what caught her eyes was not her own claws and fur, but her bald, flesh-colored skin. Its claws and hind hooves completely changed, no longer flexible and vigorous, but plump. meat column.

Cai Cai...

Cai Cai has degenerated like her mother! !

It turns out that the ugly monster in the water is Cai Cai!

The little kitten was terrified. It felt that it was because of its laziness that it had degenerated like its sleeping fat mother. When it thought that it would maintain its hairless appearance in the future, the pickle sniffed and felt sad. Wow cried out.

The drug seller next door was startled, raised his eyebrows and looked at the next door, and saw the little kitten crying with pear blossoms and rain. While crying, it pawed at the surface of the water with its paws. As soon as there was a reflection inside, it quickly slapped it away.Seeing this, the drug seller heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that it was frightened by his own shadow, so he explained aloud, "Don't be afraid, it's your own shadow inside."

Cai Cai looked at him with two bags of snot hanging from her nose, then she flattened her face and cried harder.

"..." The drug seller was speechless, what was going on.

Fortunately, pickles can't maintain a human appearance for a long time, and the little girl in the water turned back into a kitten crying.Fluffy returned to his body, and Pickle, who was still wiping away tears, was stunned for a moment. When he approached the water cautiously, he saw the little black cat inside was also looking at him.Cai Cai scratched her ears with her paws, and found that the reflection was doing the same movements as herself, and she was pleasantly surprised that she had transformed back.

Cai Cai looks good again!

The kitten was so happy that it chased its tail on the pebbles for two laps before stopping.

Seeing that the pickles had returned to normal, the medicine seller who probably guessed what had happened looked away. He broke off a thin bamboo from the river, tied it with the thread in the medicine box, and began to sit by the river and fish.Seeing that the medicine box was opened again, Pickle wanted to get the balance inside, but after scratching for a long time, it couldn't open the reclosed drawer.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

The medicine seller turned his head to look, and saw the kitten hunched over and sharpening its claws with its own medicine box.His brows twitched, and he diverted its attention aloud, "Who gave you the thing on your neck?" The cat demon has already transformed into form, and should be able to understand human speech.

"Meow." Mom said to Cai Cai.

Pickles still couldn't control the deformation by themselves, and the drug seller saw that he couldn't communicate smoothly, so he gave up temporarily.At this time, the fishing line was pulled, and a fat fish was pulled out. The drug seller reached out to hold it, and began to prepare lunch for himself and the cat.

The scales and internal organs of the fish were cleaned out and thrown by the river. The strong fishy smell attracted the greedy cat. The pickles moved their noses and kept stretching their heads forward.

mean!Cai Cai retracted the cat's head, squatted aside and rubbed her face with her paws.

Considering that there were cats by his side, the medicine seller did not choose the simpler method of roasting. He took out the pot from the medicine box that seemed to be connected to the space of another world, added seasonings and started to stew the fish.

The kitten squatting on the side unknowingly turned into a little human girl again, with only a pair of ears on its head. The kimono it transformed into was exquisite and beautiful, and it seemed to be influenced by the aristocratic style of Beijing.The drug seller guessed that it should have been a cat raised by nobles before, but it was drifted out of the city for some reason, maybe it had something to do with the mother it talked about.

The little monsters that have just transformed are dangerous, and they are easily infected by human emotions and turned into monsters with simple thinking, which is why the medicine seller didn't get rid of it.He can't let the potential danger grow, at least he must teach it the common sense of being born in this world.

Looking down, he noticed that the five-pointed star on the cat's neck was connected. The starlight was lingering day and night, possessing terrifying spiritual power. As the cat transformed into shape, it also changed its shape and remained attached to it.The drug seller stirred the fish soup and asked, "Do you know what that is?"

"Toy." Cai Cai scratched her neck, but her palm passed through the pentagram. She lowered her head regretfully and said, "I can't catch it."

That is something that requires spiritual power to touch, but now that the common sense of pickled vegetables is insufficient, the drug seller didn't tell her, but just fished out most of the fish and put it in front of her, saying: "You can eat it."

"Meow!" The little girl turned back into a cat all of a sudden, because of the shadow of being scalded, it first put the meat pad in the fish soup to measure the temperature, and then stretched out its tongue to lick the fish in the bowl Soup comes.

Following the medicine seller, pickles had already left the capital without knowing it. It began to get used to the days when it only had fish for its two meals a day, and also got used to the fact that it would occasionally become a human. Under the guidance of the medicine seller, Now, it understands that its human form is not too lazy to degenerate, but something called a change form.However, Pickle still doesn't have the concept of a demon in his heart, and he thinks that his occasional ugly appearance is inherited from his mother.

I am very envious of Brother Gu Zong, so he won't become ugly...

The days of raising cats are not very happy for the drug seller. He eats fish every day and makes his body smell fishy. Occasionally, he can't find the river water, so he needs to dry more dried fish for preparation.He has a special status, even if he does not eat, he will not die, but the young swallowing gold beast cannot go hungry, which also leads to a rapid increase in expenses. A poor drug seller is about to go to the street to beg for food.

One person and one cat walked all the way to Sagami country. The management in the city was strict, barter transactions were not allowed, and the copper coins issued by the emperor must be used for buying and selling.When he came to a fish ball shop, the drug seller groped for a long time before he took out a few copper coins, which he carefully handed over to the boss, and then took a seat in the shop with pickles wrapped around his ears.He wouldn't have come here if he hadn't heard rumors of the monster [Obo].

This fishball shop was built at the foot of Danze Mountain, and it was the season to appreciate the red maple. Many nobles or merchants came from afar. Although they couldn't entertain the nobles, occasionally samurai and merchants passed by, and the business was very good.

The drug seller held the balls and fed them to the pickles. The kitten's cheeks were bulging, and she wanted to eat new ones before she could swallow them. Of course, the drug seller would not give them to her, and deliberately raised his arms to wait for her to swallow.While I was concentrating on feeding the cats at this table, a samurai couple with their children sat down next door. They were wearing sweaters and sleeves with the Heike family crest printed on them. As soon as they sat down, they greeted the shopkeeper and said, "I heard there are monsters here?"

The shopkeeper was taken aback, he carefully looked around, and said, "It's fine for you, Mr. Samurai, to go up the mountain to see the red leaves, or to worship at the Dashan Temple, but don't wander into the woods behind the random burial mound on the right mountain. It disappeared there."

"Didn't Guoshou send an onmyoji to deal with it?" The couple looked at each other in blank dismay.

"That's not true, even the eminent monks of Dashan Temple can't do anything about the monsters inside."

Having said that, the samurai couple, who had relaxed expressions, put away their curiosity and hurriedly held the child's hand.Unlike ordinary samurai families with strict family rules and strong status gap between men and women, this young couple has a very good relationship and dotes on their children. After learning about the monsters, they stopped talking and turned to telling some light-hearted and entertaining stories to their youngest son. , made the child laugh out loud.

Cai Cai listened with pricked ears, followed the story with a naive smile, and stretched her neck to hear the next story when the samurai family left.Seeing this, the drug seller knocked on the bowl with his chopsticks and said, "It's no use listening to more stories in the scriptures, so hurry up and recite the scriptures." If she could calm down and concentrate on studying, she wouldn't be able to lose her ears even now.

Cai Cai turned her head to look at the drug seller. If she took off her scarf, her ears would be flattened.The little cat put its hands on the table, patted it, and said, "Cai Cai likes chatterbooks!"
