MTL - Cultivation of Immortals Begins with Drilling Wood To Make Fire-Chapter 521 【Still happy to be a cat】

  Chapter 521 [Still being a happy cat]

   As he spoke, he took out a few pieces of tracing paper from his pocket and showed them to Fang Chang.

  Fang Chang looked it over, but saw that the above format was actually pretty good, and the wording was neat and clear. I don't know if it was copied, or it was written by someone with some level. At the same time, the young man patted the side. There were several paper packages tied together with hemp rope. It seemed that inside was the bride price he wanted to receive the cat.

   "I came here from another place, and I really haven't heard of this custom. Now I'm curious after hearing it. I wonder if I can follow it?" Fang Chang asked the young man, bowing his hands.

   "There is nothing you can do, as long as your time is convenient." The young man said, "After I finish eating, go with me."

  Then the stall owner brought out the rotten meat noodles, and the young man hurriedly put away the letter of appointment, took the noodle bowl and began to gobble it up. He chewed quickly, his cheeks were full, and the expression on his face was full of enjoyment. It can be seen that this young man likes the taste of rotten meat noodles in front of him very much.

  Fang Chang had already finished eating, and he waited quietly by the side until the young man wiped his mouth after eating, and then got up.

"Brother, come with me, you don't know, I've wanted to hire one for a long time, but I was always busy and didn't have time until recently. I heard that a family in Mill Lane got a few new cats last year, So I went up to ask about my wishes, and then asked someone to write a letter of appointment, prepared gifts, and chose today's day to go there."

  The two walked around the streets and alleys a few times, and then arrived at the house where the young man was going.

  This small city is not big, and the time from east to west is about the same as from south to north, and it only takes less than two quarters of an hour. Fang Chang feels that the pace of life here is much slower than the big cities I have seen before, such as the imperial capital, and the citizens live a very leisurely life.

   Walking to the middle of the alley, the young man stopped in front of a door opening, raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door a few times.

  Fang Chang noticed that the doors of other houses in this alley were open, but this one was closed. But he has excellent hearing and can hear people in the yard. Moreover, several people inside were still discussing about the young people's visit just now, and it seemed that they had other arrangements for this.

   Sure enough, with the knock of the young man, the heavy wooden door creaked open, and someone asked:

   "May I ask who came to the door?"

   "I heard that there is a beautiful and virtuous cat in your house, and I am here to seek employment." The young man replied respectfully according to the rules. Next, the two answered a few sentences, all according to the routine, and then the young man took out the letter of appointment and handed it over. Then the main house opened the door and welcomed the young man and Fang Chang in.

Although the process of hiring a cat seems to be a bit solemn, there is actually no investment in the cat itself. There is neither a red dress nor a veiled sedan chair. The selected cat just stays in a cage honestly, waiting to be accepted. The young man leads away.

  The whole process was a bit boring, but it was quite lively. The two families cheerfully exchanged the ownership of the kitten.

  Fang Chang silently watched the whole process of the ceremony, drank some tea from the host's house, and left with the young man. The young man carried the cage containing the new cat, his face was full of joy, and his steps were brisk.

   Walking out of the alley, Fang Chang said: "Today is really an eye-opener, thank you for your leadership, and I will say goodbye."

The young man waved his hand: "It's just a little effort, I have to go home quickly, and I have to make a food bowl for it. I will find if there is any scrap wood and nail one myself." Almost all the young people's attention was on this new one in their hands. After a brief farewell to Fang Chang, he walked away quickly.

  Seeing the young man walking away, Fang Chang turned and went back. With a slight dodge, no one could see him, including the cat that had been lying on the wall basking in the sun during the previous cat engagement ceremony.

  Fang Chang grabbed the cat, walked to an empty corner, put the cat on the opposite side, and asked curiously: "If I'm not mistaken, your Excellency should have already transformed, why are you lurking in this house?"

   "This has nothing to do with Shangxian, right?"

  The cat suddenly encountered such an innocent disaster, and there was some resistance in his heart, so he behaved like a human being.

  But this cat has good eyesight, even though he pushes it back like this, he is quite disturbed in his heart. It's just that because of its long life and wide experience, it has a calm face, really like an ordinary cat with some anger.

  Fang Chang explained with a smile: "It's just curiosity. Since I entered this family today, it can be regarded as fate. Seeing that you have achieved success in cultivation, but you are staying on top of this family's wall, so I am curious to ask."

  He is well versed in the method of hope, and can see that this cat has never done anything evil.

  As long as a practitioner wants to kill sentient beings, he will definitely be entangled in karma, and the appearance of the qi on the top will be different. If he has eaten it, it will be even more terrifying. The breath on the cat's head is white and clean, and it should be a good one—but Fang Chang is still curious about why it stays here.

  The cat laughed dumbfounded after hearing his question:

"I didn't expect you, Shangxian, to have such a high level of cultivation, that you would still be curious about this kind of thing. In fact, I just wanted to feel comfortable. I have practiced for many years, and even transformed into a human body. In the end, I found that I was still happy when I was a cat. I realized this. After one o'clock, I turned back into a cat and found someone to stay with."

"Eat, sleep, sleep and eat every day. In your free time, you can hunt birds and catch butterflies, or play with a few mice. When you are tired, you can bask in the sun by lying on your stomach, whether it is on the roof or the wall. It is really a boundless joy. Sometimes I think about my previous self, what’s wrong with being a cat, why should I practice?”

"During the catastrophe before, there were monsters who discovered me and wanted to lure me into the gang. It was a good idea. I ate and drank every day to be comfortable and fine. Even the legendary gods would not change. Why would I make trouble? Sure enough , They are all wiped out now, and I am still basking in the sun here, compared to me, they are really stupid... Well, Your Excellency should have satisfied your curiosity, please send me back."

   It sounded so reasonable. Fang Chang took a look and found that the cat's cultivation base was not abandoned, but still diligent. It seems that what he thinks and does is also in line with the Tao in some aspects.

  He nodded, cupped his hands and said with a smile:

   "I see, it seems that I offended you just now—I'll send you back right now."

"No need, I know the way, just walk back by myself." The cat looked around, raised its paw to interrupt Fang Chang's movement, then walked away with its tail raised, and rushed up the firewood pile next to it to the top of the wall in a few steps. After a few vertical jumps, it disappeared in the direction of the family.

  Fang Chang stood up, smiled, turned around and walked out of the corner.

  The sun outside is very bright and very bright, just like what was shining on the wall just now. After the wind and rain, the dark clouds just drifted to nowhere, and the sky here is already clear.

  Go back directly, back to Yunzhongshan, back to Xianqi Cliff.

   Then proceed to the next plan.

   Thank you book friend 131215175217721 for the reward.
