Wang Yan simply packed some luggage. The theater had closed down long ago and she had no valuables to collect. Now, did she really want to go back to her hometown?
In fact, she doesn't want to go back to her hometown at all.
The land in the theater is rented. In a few days, the landlord will take back the land.
Besides, even if the landlord doesn't take back the land, she doesn't dare to live here. As an ordinary person, she is scared after such a weird thing happened.
Wang Yan sighed and walked on the road for a long time. Suddenly, she heard a cat meowing.
A woman in a blue dress was walking beside her, carrying a cat. The cat was very fat and had tabby patterns, which was very rare.
"Meow meow meow~"
The tabby cat had its four claws shrunk and was meowing pitifully. The woman in a blue dress had a heart as solid as stone. She clutched the cat's head tightly with her five fingers and walked quickly like she was carrying a fish.
"Meow meow meow~"
The tabby cat's meow became more and more shrill, and its eyes even shed tears.
Wang Yan is a kind-hearted person and she especially likes cats and dogs. Moreover, this cat looks very intelligent and keeps staring at her.
Wang Yan relented.
She was just about to stop the woman in the blue skirt and wanted to buy the cat, but her purse was empty, just enough for travel expenses. She couldn't even feed herself, so how could she feed the cat alive?
Wang Yan sighed and shook her head, lowered her head, not daring to look at the cat, and hurried forward.
After leaving Yishui County, seeing that it was getting dark, Wang Yan found an inn to stay.
I ordered a piece of braised noodles and was eating slowly. Suddenly, the curtain at the store door opened and a green figure walked in.
Wang Yan's eyes suddenly widened and she looked at the woman in the blue skirt in disbelief. What a coincidence, right?
"Meow meow meow~"
The cat meowed again. When the cat saw her, its limbs struggled violently, and its meow became more and more shrill. Wang Yan's doubts disappeared, and her heart suddenly hurt.
This cat is so smart, she recognizes me.
"Guest, do you want to stay in a hotel or have a meal?"
"Stay in the hotel. By the way, please ask the kitchen to help take care of this cat. Suffocate it with quicklime, peel it and stew it. I'll pay for it."
The store owner was a fat middle-aged man. He looked at the cat with pity: "Girl, your cat is a rare breed. It would be a pity to kill it and eat it. It's a coincidence that there are many mice in my store. You can sell it to me and avoid it."
Isn’t it a sin to commit murder?”
"fart."
The woman in a green dress suddenly said viciously: "I can eat my cat as much as I want. Remember, it must be suffocated with quicklime so that the cat meat can be as white as jade."
The woman in the green dress suddenly threw the tabby cat to the ground. The cat screamed and its mouth and nose were bleeding, but it still raised its head with difficulty and stared at Wang Yan.
Wang Yan couldn't bear it anymore.
She stood up in a hurry, touched her body, and finally found a little money, sighed, and rushed forward resolutely.
Today, she must buy this poor cat, even if she will be poor and eat dirt in the future.
"That eldest sister, Cat Meat Sour, you..."
The woman in the green skirt turned around, stared at Wang Yan, and suddenly smiled.
"I think the girl is kind-hearted, so I gave you this cat."
After saying that, before Wang Yan could react, the woman in a blue skirt hurriedly grabbed the cat and stuffed it into Wang Yan's arms.
Wang Yan opened her mouth wide, but before she could speak, the woman in the blue skirt hurried out the door as if something was urgent.
"this……"
Wang Yan was holding the tabby cat in her arms and was at a loss. She looked at the shop owner and said cowardly: "Boss, there are many rats in your shop, why not..."
"Hey, hey, Xiao Qian, hurry up and bring the dishes to the guests. You kid is so clumsy, how do you do anything?"
The shop owner pretended not to hear Wang Yan's words and hurriedly walked to the kitchen.
Wang Yan was holding the cat in her arms and was at a loss. It was a long way from Yishui to her hometown, and it was inconvenient to bring a cat with her.
"Meow meow meow~"
The tabby cat suddenly nuzzled her arm, its meowing became much softer, and it even purred as it fell asleep.
"It seems like this cat trusts me very much, just keep it!"
Wang Yan hugged the tabby cat and walked down the stairs to her room step by step.
…
In the back kitchen, the fat shop owner took a long breath and took out a handkerchief to wipe his cold sweat.
Xiao Qian, who was doing the dishes next to him, said strangely: "Boss, that cat is a rare breed. If we get it, we can change hands for a lot of money!"
"What do you know?"
The shop owner sneered: "I've been running the shop for more than ten years, who hasn't seen it?
As soon as the woman dressed in blue came in, I felt something was wrong, but I didn't think much about it. She wanted to kill the cat and eat it. I was originally planning to buy it and resell it.
Until that guest came forward..."
The fat shop owner was still frightened.
"Didn't you see that this is a game against the female guest?"
Xiao Qian stopped what he was doing and asked curiously: "What game? A game where you give away a rare breed cat for free?"
The fat boss sighed: "I was greedy and almost got into a big disaster. In a business like ours, we have many customers coming and going. Who knows whether they are humans or ghosts?"
"What, ghost?"
Xiaoqian almost sat down on the ground.
The shop owner hurriedly made a shushing gesture and explained: "Didn't you notice that the smile of the woman in the blue skirt was very strange? It was as if it had been pulled out by force, as stiff as a corpse."
Xiaoqian was frightened to death and stammered: "Well, what should I do with that female guest? I, I, I, I will tell her."
"Mind your own business, shut up, and act like you don't know anything from now on," the store owner said viciously.
Second floor.
The boards creaked.
Wang Yan hugged the tabby cat and walked forward step by step. She was getting closer and closer to the door, but she felt that her steps were getting heavier and heavier, and her eyelids were heavy.
The tabby cat in her arms had wide eyes and a confident smile with its mouth wide open.
A faint white mist emitted from the cat's body, and the white mist seeped into Wang Yan's heart orifice.
Wang Yan didn't notice at all. She walked into the room in a daze, closed the door, and the tabby cat jumped out of her arms, then jumped onto the table, eye level with Wang Yan.
"Target Li Jun, Qingniu Village, confusion."
…
There are still more than ten days left, and the New Year is almost here.
Unknowingly, Li Jun has been living here in seclusion for more than a month and is familiar with the villagers.
Qingniu Village is considered a relatively wealthy village, and the new year pigs in the village are also fat. During this period, pigs are killed every few days.
Every time a pig is slaughtered, someone always invites Li Jun to eat the pig meat. Li Jun is not fat at all. He is as big as a dog, and the cat lady has gained a lot of weight. They are all chubby after eating.
Every time Li Jun goes to eat butchered vegetables, he always brings a cat and a dog with him. Because of his status as an immortal master, no one thinks he is shameless.
On this day, Li Jun came home after eating pig meat and vegetables. He saw a woman standing at the gate. When he got closer, he saw that it was Wang Yan.
Wang Yan was wearing an old cotton-padded jacket, her graceful figure was covered tightly, her eyes were like autumn water, and her face was flushed.
When she saw Li Jun coming over, she said with tears in her eyes: "Master Immortal, I have nowhere to go. Please take me in. I want to work part-time here."
