The master of metaphysics is a cat slave

The sound is like a stereo surround sound, coming from all directions.Mu Liuyun's expression froze, and he sat up from the bed.

As soon as he lifted the quilt, he found that the cat was gone, only a few cat hairs scattered on the bed.

Mu Liuyun gently opened the door and walked towards the source of the sound.

As soon as the door was opened, it was obvious that the sound was coming from the kitchen.

"Boom, boom, boom." It was like an ax smashing into a stake.

Mu Liuyun held the talisman firmly, approached the kitchen holding his breath, and pushed open the kitchen door.

Holding the kitchen knife in both hands, Bai Jian stared at the chopping board with ferocious eyes and a wicked smile on the corner of her mouth.

A piece of pork ribs lay on the chopping board.

"Why are you up?" Mu Liuyun put away the spell, rolled up his sleeves, and walked over to help.

"I'm hungry, burn some ribs." Bai Jian put away her exaggerated expression, and began to chop the ribs normally, "Did it bother you?"

"It's fine. Do you need my help?"

Bai Jian glanced to the side, and said numbly: "Press some garlic paste, just use a tool."

He didn't dare to ask Mu Liuyun to do a job with too high technical content.

Mu Liuyun silently broke off a few cloves of garlic and rubbed the garlic skin with difficulty.

Bai Jian picked up the garlic, threw it on the chopping board, flattened it with a knife a few times, and threw the crushed garlic to him: "That's enough."

Mu Liuyun felt for no reason that his actions were somewhat contemptuous.

"Why didn't you wake me up, and made me sleep until midnight, almost starving to death." Bai Jian handled the ribs neatly, cut a few slices of ginger, and poured all the seasoning into the ribs after washing, "You can't do it well. Just don’t force it, just throw away half of it, what a waste. If I didn’t get up at night, the meat would all go bad tomorrow.”

Mu Liuyun's action of pressing garlic suddenly stopped, and slowly raised his head: "I have never touched ribs."

"But when I came in..." Bai Jian was also taken aback for a moment, "You really haven't touched it?"

Mu Liuyun replied affirmatively: "Before I go to bed, all the meat is in the lower shelf of the refrigerator."

"Boom."

The regular sound of chopping meat came from overhead, dull and dull.

"Is anyone still cooking at this point?" Bai Jian was dumbfounded, "Who lives upstairs in your house?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen it."

Bai Jian washed her hands, mixed the pork ribs soaked in the seasoning, and tilted her head thinking: "Wait a minute, are you sure it's human? This meat is taken from other things, right? Ghosts can enter your house?"

Mu Liuyun said indifferently: "There are always some things that cannot be distinguished."

"Then do you want to go up and have a look? The ribs just need to be marinated for a while." Bai Jian picked up the potatoes casually, washed them and began to scrape the skins. She was not interested in what happened upstairs, "Call me if I have something to do, I'm afraid I will leave Someone is stealing food."

Mu Liuyun thought for a moment, then nodded: "Be careful yourself."

"Bon voyage." Bai Jian waved her hand lazily, watching his figure disappear at the door.

He finished chopping the potatoes and started chopping the carrots.

In the past, he was still interested in going up to see which unlucky guy hit him in the mouth, but now that Mu Liuyun was watching, he couldn't eat even if he wanted to.

He couldn't help but recall the old days.A few years ago, I could eat whatever I wanted, which was much more refreshing than it is now.

But the spiritual power in Mu Liuyun's body was delicious, and he would not be willing to go back if he really wanted him.

He fished out the ribs, heated up the pan, and prepared to fry the ribs.

As soon as the ribs were put into the pot, small oily flowers jumped out.Bai Jian watched the oil splash on the back of her hand, and flushed it with water expressionlessly.

He is a little restless now.The specific reason may be the exhaustion of the days, or it may be the dream just had.

He said that he blamed Mu Liuyun for not waking him up, causing him to oversleep.In fact, he was just afraid that Mu Liuyun would discover his abnormality.

He had a very long dream, and the whole dream was like a natural barrier, isolating him from the sounds of the outside world.

He dreamed about 20 years ago again.At that time, the Great War had not yet started. Although the Taotie clan was sparsely populated, they lived happily. He was just a carefree cat who ate and slept.

He is not a person who likes to remember the past, and he accepts the present life well.It's just that recently I have frequently dreamed about what happened back then, and I can't help but feel a little depressed.

He attributed this to thinking too much without eating.

The ribs gave off a burst of burnt aroma.After Bai Jian fried the sugar, he poured the ribs back, added the ingredients, added water, covered the pot, and started to simmer over low heat.

He found that the sound of chopping meat upstairs disappeared, and the whole kitchen was filled with the sound of boiling soup.

Bai Jian asked Mu Liuyun suspiciously: "What's the situation above?"

Mu Liuyun replied briefly: "The ghost is gone, but there are other problems."

"Do you need my help?" Bai Jian reckoned that the pork ribs would have to be stewed for an hour, and if there was not a big problem with the preparation, he went up to accompany Mu Liuyun to have a look, "I'm almost done with it here."

"Being not."

Bai Jian felt relieved and went to the living room to open a package of snacks.But as soon as he got the shredded squid, he heard the "squeak" sound of the window being opened from the kitchen.

Although the voice is light, it still has the ability to make people panic in the silent night.Bai Jian's movements paused, and she approached the kitchen on tiptoe. When she saw the figure squatting on the stove, she turned into a cat and pounced on it with a whimper.

The casserole lid fell to the ground with a crisp sound.Bai Jian was heartbroken, and shook her with the thief's collar in her mouth: "My pot lid!"

The stealing ghost has disheveled hair and is wearing pajamas. He is skinny and his clothes look empty.Bai Jian stepped on her chest and looked down at her: "You are quite courageous, you dare to come here to steal food."

"I'm so hungry..." the food stealing ghost yelled hoarsely, writhing his body in pain.

"Can you steal other people's food when you're hungry?" Bai Jian approached her to sniff, and asked curiously, "Aren't you a ghost? Are you a monster?"

The monster who was eating just kept moaning/groaning, which gave Bai Jian a headache.He sharpened his claws, and the sharp nails stood out, pressing against the monster's neck: "If you move again, I will eat you."

"What's wrong?" Mu Liuyun also jumped in from the kitchen window, avoiding the pot on the stove, and jumped down from the side, "Did you catch it?"

Bai Jian jumped to the side, kicked the monster who was stealing food to him, changed back into a human form, and hurriedly found a spare pot lid to cover it, and tasted it by the way.

His chops can't shed dirt.

Seeing Mu Liuyun, the monster screamed even more terrified. The whole monster huddled in the corner of the kitchen, curled up with its knees hugged.

"Don't act like we are bad people. Say, why steal it?"

The monster whispered: "I'm hungry."

"So you possessed this person?" The chain in Mu Liuyun's hand flew out, binding the monster tightly.

Bai Jian frowned at her and raised her chin: "Are you sure this is a person?"

This could no longer be called a human face. There was hardly any fat or muscle, only a shriveled skin sticking to the bones, with sunken cheeks, and large and hollow eyes.

Bai Jian stepped on her just now, and knew that her body was almost full of bones, and she would be broken after a few light jumps.

"It's the daughter of the family upstairs."
