The master of metaphysics is a cat slave

"it is good."

The girl's lips gently opened and closed, and they were fixed in a delicate circle.

A gust of wind blew past her skirt, and the flowers on her skirt were rolled down one after another. Her whole figure was like a flower fluttering in the wind, which would be broken by the wind in the next second.

There was the rustling of leaves behind him.Mu Liuyun looked back and found that the ordinary green plants had turned into towering trees, with thick branches and leaves blocking the sky tightly.But if you look closely, you will feel that it is not branches and leaves, but a network of intertwined snake shadows.

The green and plump leaves fell against his cheeks and stopped on his shoulders.

More and more leaves rustled down, almost submerging him.The light but seductive aroma lingers on the nose, like a strand of silk thread, seemingly pulling the nerves.

The cold and slippery touch crawled inward along the sleeves and neckline, completely twisting him up, almost suffocating him.

He broke through the blindfold, and when he turned his head again, he found that the girl had disappeared.

All that was left was a mischievous laugh.

The leaves that fell beside him also turned into poisonous insects, and quickly fled around.

Mu Liuyun looked at the little snake in his hand.The snake has turned back into an ordinary branch, but the original bare branch now has small buds.

"How's it going?"

Bai Jian had already turned back into a human form, and leaned over to look at the sprouting branches: "Is it going to bloom?"

"I don't know, it's probably an invitation." Mu Liuyun put away the branches and asked with concern, "Did she show you anything just now?"

"It's a big tree." Bai Jian gestured with her hand, "I can feel that the tree is very fragrant, and it should be delicious."

As expected, Taotie never said anything without eating.

Mu Liuyun smiled faintly: "Is it a very shallow but nice smell?"

Bai Jian replied seriously: "It's the smell of barbecue."

Seeing Mu Liuyun's surprised expression, he stroked his hair embarrassingly: "Anyway, it's the smell of food."

"What are you doing standing under the tree?" Bi Hua came in with a few big bags of food, because the things he carried were too heavy, and his shoulders seemed to be dislocated.

Bai Jian pointed to the human skin hanging on the tree: "Liu Yi is dead."

Bi Hua let out an exclamation, and rushed up heartbroken, stroking the human skin: "Is the human skin not broken? I really like this human skin."

"Give me his information, and we will help him deal with the funeral." Mu Liuyun sighed secretly, and helped Liu Yi pick up the human skin carefully.

Colleagues from the Bureau of Investigation came quickly and were planning to interrogate Liu Yi, but now they can only deal with the funeral urgently.

It was even worse than the previous few times. I could see a whole body before, but now I don't even know who died.

The colleague asked Mu Liuyun with a bitter face: "Do you have a problem with your physique, and you will die wherever you go."

He was just joking, but Mu Liuyun nodded expressionlessly.

"I said it casually..."

"Maybe he killed it on purpose in front of me." Mu Liuyun looked solemn, "Or he had to kill it at this time."

The colleague blinked suspiciously: "Huh?"

"He knows that once Liu Yi is taken away, his secrets may also be exposed. So he must kill him before you arrive...or is this a special time?"

Mu Liuyun's pupils constricted suddenly, and he asked the investigators to confirm the time of death and date of birth of the first two deceased again.

When he and Bai Jian returned to the third floor, several other people were still waiting in Xia Anhe and Wei Qiuye's room, relatively silent and each had their own concerns.

The puppet cat curled up on Xia Anhe's lap, its back undulating slightly, and it purred slightly.Xia Anhe peeled macadamia nuts deftly, and when the shell opener was pried, it made a crisp sound, which melted into the faint humming of a lullaby.Lian Yi huddled in a corner and played with his mobile phone, the fluorescence of the mobile phone screen cast a pale shadow on his face.

Seeing them coming in, Lian Yi raised his face and asked faintly, "The inspection is over? Is he dead?"

Bai Jian nodded, and he could only shake his head regretfully, and continued to shrink aside to play with his mobile phone.

"I need to ask you something." Mu Liuyun broke the original dullness in the room, "He should have this power after entering the film crew. In other words, the spirit tree she mentioned is probably on your set Nearby. Where did you film before?"

Lian Yi sat up straight and cleared his throat: "It's a small village, I can help you ask for details."

Mu Liuyun pondered for a while: "They may not want to go back to the scene, so can you take us there?"

Lian Yi tilted her head halfway and looked at him in confusion, almost drawing three question marks on her head.

"Should I go too?" His voice was full of reluctance, and he obviously didn't want to go back to the deep mountains and old forests, "But there are a lot of bugs there..."

Bai Jian disdained: "Are you a cat afraid of bugs?"

"Cute little cats don't like bugs." Lian Yi replied seriously, "Cute little cats only like cute things."

"We will give you a corresponding reward." Mu Liuyun pretended to show a photo casually, "In fact, someone from the Investigation Bureau is your fan and has always liked you..."

Lian Yi: "...I'll go."

"Let's go together too." Xia Anhe's voice cut in at the right time.Wei Qiuye also woke up at some point, lying on his lap, looking at Bai Jian and Mu Liuyun without blinking.

One more person is always more strength.Of course they are welcome.

Lian Yi huddled up and asked the crew, while Xia Anhe asked Mu Liuyun about his plans while feeding the cat.

The current clue still points to the race that controls the Gu worms.The spirit tree may be their source of power, and this power can be temporarily lent to ordinary humans through the branches, but it is very likely that they will lose their lives in the end.

Were the previous Gu worms also passed on in the form of branches?

Not everyone can encounter the Spirit Tree, is there anything in common among these people?Or is it pure coincidence?

Wei Qiuye bit the macadamia nut creakingly: "Liu Yi probably broke in by himself."

Mu Liuyun's voice couldn't hear the ups and downs: "Why do you say that?"

"Didn't that girl ask you to return the branch?" Wei Qiuye smiled softly, and his tail curved happily, "If it were me, I would prefer you to keep this branch with you. Maybe you It will become the next sacrifice. Even if you are not tempted, the people around you are not necessarily, as long as the branches are left outside, more people can be tempted."

"But it's more likely that this branch will be the key to studying them. They don't necessarily dare to take that risk."

"I've shown my face aboveboard, so there's nothing to be afraid of." The puppet cat gnawed on a nut with its back on its back, making a crisp chewing sound, "I'm just raising a possibility. And a person like Liu Yi shouldn't be anything Make good use of the target, revenge is just to scare people, and in the end it didn't really kill people, if I were that ambitious tree, I wouldn't like this kind of sacrifice."

Bai Jian's face darkened slightly: "Stop talking about it first."

Thinking from the enemy's point of view at this time may be something that only Wei Qiuye can do.

Wei Qiuye stopped talking, but clearly bit the macadamia nut, as if deliberately seducing the glutton in Bai Jian's stomach.

"His value doesn't necessarily lie in what he can do, but in himself." Mu Liuyun said lightly, "The spirit tree gave him power just to lure Liu Yi into approaching it. As for what Liu Yi can do , how far these Gu worms can travel is not important to it."

He still believed that Liu Yi was lured there.He, as well as Li Shi and Wang Wu's wives were probably all planned sacrifices.

Wei Qiuye ate the nuts indifferently, and said "oh" to save face, and stopped discussing with him.

"What are you eating?" After asking, Lian Yi followed the chewing sound to find it, and took a peeled fruit, "I want to eat it too!"

Wei Qiuye patted his hand angrily: "It was stripped for me."

Lianyi let go resentfully, and went to get the unpeeled macadamia nuts. Wei Qiuye took a can of nuts into his arms again: "Buy it yourself."

"There's an unopened can next to it." Xia Anhe smiled kindly, stroked the cat's head reassuringly, and looked aside.

Lian Yi shook his head, stretched his arms to reach for the new jar, and complained in a voice that Wei Qiuye could just hear: "I thought some people would be cuter if they turned into cats."

Wei Qiuye sneered, and picked the other pot: "Bai Jian, it's time to eat!"

Before Bai Jian could make a move, she felt Lian Yi looking at her resentfully.He thought for a while, anyway, he doesn't like to eat nuts, so it doesn't matter if it's handed over to Lian Yi.

"Honey, what you peel out is even more delicious." Wei Qiuye dragged his voice, although he was talking to Xia Anhe, he was looking at Bai Jian.

Bai Jian was enlightened, and Wei Qiuye was reminding him that it's time to express himself!

"Do you eat macadamia nuts?" Bai Jian turned to ask Mu Liuyun with a bright smile.

Mu Liuyun's eyes were puzzled for a moment, thinking that he wanted to eat, so he asked casually, and nodded casually.

Bai Jian carelessly carried another can of nuts over, peeled off a few neatly, and stuffed them into his hands: "Eat it."

Mu Liuyun looked at the milky white round fruits in his palm, and tightened his fingers slightly: "Aren't you going to eat it?"

"You eat first, then I'll peel it off." Bai Jian looked at him cheerfully, seeing that he didn't eat it right away, she picked one up suspiciously, "Has it gone bad?"

He broke the fruit into two halves, ate half by himself, tried the taste, and found that there was no problem, then stuffed the other half into Mu Liuyun's mouth: "The taste should be fine."

The nutty and salty taste melts in the mouth, and it seems to be tainted with the unique taste of cats.Mu Liuyun lost his mind for a moment.

"Wei Qiuye, did you buy a fake product?" Seeing that his expression was not right, Bai Jian turned her head and asked, "Did you buy something for cats?"

"Have you ever seen nuts for cats?" Wei Qiuye gave him a contemptuous look, "I wonder what the problem is."

"There's nothing wrong with the nuts. I'm not too hungry." Mu Liuyun glanced at the puppet, took the shell opener from Bai Jian's hand, and began to peel the shells silently, stuffing a few pieces of fruit into Bai Jian's hands.

Bai Jian nodded in confusion, and finally ate happily.

"You don't need to do anything special—at least you don't need to learn from others." Mu Liuyun stuffed macadamia nuts into his hands, and gently closed his palms, "You just need to use the way you are most used to."

How embarrassing this is, as a cat that can only hunt, it is obligatory to feed humans.

He held Mu Liuyun's hand behind his back, and said sincerely: "It's okay if you don't like this, I can cook something delicious for you when I go back."
