14. Revenge

The cat spoke...

The cat actually spoke?!

This is probably the strangest thing Chen Ji has encountered since coming to this world.

The lights in the main hall of the clinic flickered, casting uncertain light and shadows on the black cat's face, and Chen Ji's expression was also uncertain.

He walked around the clinic cautiously, first making sure there was no one in the backyard, then confirming that there was no one in the dark street outside. Only then did he look back at the little black cat squatting on the counter. "Just now, I mean, were you talking?"

The black cat looked at him motionlessly, without making any sound.

But Chen Ji was very sure at this moment that the one who just spoke was this little black cat!

Could it be that the cat-hiring ceremony produced some magical effect?

"Why aren't you talking again?" Chen Ji looked at the little black cat in confusion: "Can you say one more word? I want to confirm what's going on."

But the little black cat just held its head high, looking serious, and didn't make another sound.

Chen Ji thought for a moment and said, "Just say something and I'll save up money to buy you some buns."

Little black cat: "..."

Chen Ji: "Buy dried fish."

Little black cat: "..."

Chen Ji took a deep breath and said, "That white cat of Concubine Yun must have beaten you pretty hard today!"

The little black cat stiffened his neck and said, "It's not much better!"

Chen Ji looked at the little black cat with a smile, and the little black cat subconsciously shrank its neck.

He asked, "Why didn't you speak just now?"

The little black cat was silent for a moment: "I didn't expect that I could speak suddenly."

Chen Ji was at a loss whether to laugh or cry...

In other words, the little black cat just answered him subconsciously in his mind, and accidentally made a sound. In fact, during this period of time, the little black cat had responded to many of Chen Ji's words, but he just couldn't hear them.

Chen Ji said, "Just now I named you 'Dark Cloud' in the engagement letter. Did you know about this?"

Wu Yun said in disgust, "That's so ugly!"

Chen Ji changed the subject: "When did you awaken your spiritual intelligence?"

He likes cats and knows a little about them, so he knows that most cats are not actually smart, but stupid.

But the dark cloud clearly had intelligence before it began to speak. It could understand human speech and even respond, something many humans could not do.

Wuyun replied, "When did your spiritual wisdom begin? I've always been like this."

"Born like this?"

"I was born like this."

Chen Ji thought for a moment: "Can you open your mouth and let me see it?"

Wuyun stepped back, and stretched out the sharp claws on his paws a little: "Why?"

Chen Ji said weakly: "Can you please stop being so stubborn and trust each other a little more!"

Wuyun thought for a moment and said, "...Okay."

"Come to the oil lamp and open your mouth...ah."

Wu Yun reluctantly opened his mouth: "Ah..."

Chen Ji looked into its mouth and muttered, "One, two, three, four... ten Kan?"

In ancient times, a cat lover wrote about his experience in raising cats: When hiring a cat, you need to first look at its mouth. A cat with a shallow groove on its upper jaw is the dumbest, eating and sleeping like a fool; a cat with a nine-groove is the best, understanding human nature and able to catch mice and protect the house.

In other words, the best kitten is the one with nine ridges in its mouth, but Wuyun has ten ridges in his mouth.

Next to the oil-slag lamp on the counter, Wuyun opened his mouth and spoke from his throat, "Are you done?"

"Okay, okay," Chen Ji seemed to be thinking about something. Could the "ten Kan" mentioned in his mouth be the special feature of the dark clouds?

"Sleepy," the dark clouds naturally

Lying down, my head rested right in Chen Ji's palm, feeling warm.

But it soon felt that something was wrong. How could such a noble thing as itself lie in the palm of someone else's hand?

Are you getting up?

Forget it, just lie down for a while.

"Wait, don't fall asleep yet," Chen Ji said, "I haven't given you the bead yet. I don't know if it will bounce you away again. Get up and try."

Wuyun jumped up, all his sleepiness gone. "I just remembered I came here for that bead... Give it to me, quick, quick!"

Chen Ji handed the crystal bead over, and this time, the bead really did not resist the dark clouds anymore.

The pitch-black dark cloud swallowed the bead into its stomach in one gulp, then slipped out of the clinic through the crack in the door, leaving Chen Chi alone in a dishevel.

Just leaving like that?!

At this moment, Chen Ji sensed a warm current coming from the direction where the dark clouds were leaving!

The warm current is like the magma deep in the mountains, hot and boiling, and like the August rainstorm, majestic and powerful.

Finally, it penetrated into his body from between his eyebrows, moistened his limbs and bones, and finally slowly gathered at his heart.

Chen Ji was stunned. This was a power he had never experienced before.

Unlike the violent and rapid ice flow, this lava flow flows slowly.

Moreover, he was unable to control the ice flow, but the molten flow actually moved under the control of his own will.

When the molten flow flowed out of Dantian along the blood under Chen Ji's control, he felt that the parts of his body that passed through were particularly comfortable, just like suddenly soaking in a hot spring in the coldest days of winter.

At midnight in Qingshan Psychiatric Hospital, Chen Ji felt that he had no regrets in his life.

He no longer plans his life or looks forward to the future. As for whether the food tastes good or the clothes look good, it is no longer important.

Now, for the first time, he truly felt the mysterious new world and was in it.

And Chen Ji is no longer alone now, he has a cat.

…

…

In the night, Los Angeles fell into a deep sleep.

After the chaos at Jingfei's Wanxing Garden, Prince Jing's Mansion has returned to peace. Prince Jing has not returned home for more than ten days. It is said that this is because the war with Jing Dynasty is tense and the cavalry in the north has arrived at Shanhaiguan and is at the gates of the city.

Prince Jing was stationed in Luocheng, the transit hub of the Southern Grand Canal. He needed to raise a large amount of military rations in the south and send them to the north through the canal.

Under the moonlight, a small, black cat walked silently along the eaves, its steps light and graceful. A surge of power surged through its body. After consuming the crystal bead, the muscles in Wuyun's body rapidly restructured and grew, increasing its strength by a full cat!

When the dark clouds jumped onto the eaves of Jing'an Hall, if someone looked up from below, it almost overlapped with the crescent moon in the sky, as if standing on the crescent moon's hook.

At this moment, a palace guard noticed something and turned his head suddenly. His armor made a rustling sound and his eyes swept across the glazed ceiling of Jing'an Hall like an eagle, but there was nothing there.

The guard hesitated for a second, then quickly climbed onto the eaves of the wall, holding the halberd upside down, and chased in the direction of the suspicion.

The next moment, the guard jumped down from the eaves of the wall, and the huge black shadow was as oppressive as a night owl.

He walked around for a while, then squatted down and checked the ground in the moonlight to see if there were any fresh footprints, but still found nothing.

"Strange, am I being too suspicious?" The guard slowly left.

It was not until a long time later that the dark cloud that had gathered in the corner and merged with the shadows stretched out its body and continued to walk deeper into the palace.

It passed through Mingzheng Hall, Wanxing Garden, dodged the patrolling guards, dodged the fierce servants on night watch, traveled through mountains and rivers, cut through thorns and bushes, and finally arrived in front of Feiyun Garden of Concubine Yun.

Wuyun opened his claws and hooked onto the wooden pillar, climbing steadily towards the second floor of the building. The window was open, so he clung to the windowsill like a dog and peeked in.

The white cat in the house opened its eyes and stared at the dark clouds!

Dark Cloud: “Tsk!”

Turn around and run.

Seeing this, the white lion cat jumped out of the window and followed the dark clouds to the back garden. However, it was a little confused. How could this defeated opponent be so cowardly and brave at the same time?

The white lion cat chased the dark cloud all the way into the back garden, through a rocky garden, and then through a meadow, and finally in front of the famous Feibai Pond in the palace... he lost track of the dark cloud.

Feibai Pond at Prince Jing's Mansion is famous for its resemblance to calligraphy. Feibai refers to the dry brushstrokes in calligraphy. The shallow pool of water here is shrouded in rock formations, and the intermittent flow of water creates a transcendental atmosphere, like the writing of a dry brush.

The Feibai Pond, Tinglei Pavilion and National Flower Garden in Prince Jing's Mansion are all places that are talked about with great interest by the literati in Luoyang.

At this time, the white lion cat was sniffing the scent in the air, but was shocked to find that the scent came from behind him!

In an instant, the white lion cat's fur stood up all over its body. Just when it wanted to turn around, it was too late. A group of black cats pounced on it from behind and knocked it to the ground with one palm.

The white lion cat couldn't understand how this defeated opponent could turn the tables in just a few hours. The power in his small body was even greater than his own.

As the figures crossed each other, Wu Yun seized the opportunity and pressed the white lion cat to the ground. He curled his claws into fists and hit its head with a bang, delivering a fierce and critical blow!

Chen Ji didn't know that Wuyun was proud, and naturally he had reason to be proud. His fighting instincts far surpassed those of his peers, and he had a stronger fighting intuition.

Even though the strength difference is almost the same, the white lion cat can only get beaten.

The white lion cat began to whimper and beg for mercy, but Wuyun didn't care. He didn't know how many beatings he had received during this period. Every time Concubine Yun came to Wanxing Garden, he was beaten.

Revenge is now!

Wuyun flipped the white lion cat over, stretched out a claw and grabbed the white lion cat's crotch, and then pushed it hard!

It let out a long breath, put one of its front paws on its old rival, looked up at the moon, and looked very proud.

However, Wuyun still felt that it was not enough to relieve his anger...

It quietly returned to Feiyun Garden and licked all the snacks that the servants had placed in the side room before leaving satisfied.

The main hall of the clinic.

Chen Ji was flipping through a book when he saw Black Cat walking back with an elegant pace. He asked curiously, "Where did you go just now?"

Wuyun raised his head: "Triumph!"

Chen Ji: “…”

I'm quite proud of it.

Chen Ji closed the book and asked, "Are you going to beat up that white cat?"

"If you understand me, beat me hard!" Wuyun raised his head higher.

"Has anyone discovered?"

"No."

"Beat him to death?"

Wuyun hesitated: "...No."

Chen Ji looked a little regretful.

Wuyun quickly added, "But I licked all the snacks at Feiyun Garden!"

Chen Ji nodded: "That's okay."

"Hehehe."

"Hehehe."

As he was speaking, there was a rustling sound in the backyard. Chen Ji turned around and saw Liu Quxing wearing a coat, looking into the clinic curiously. "Chen Ji, I just heard you talking? Who were you talking to?"

Chen Ji was silent for a moment. "I was just talking to myself. Did Brother Liu hear anything else?"

Liu Quxing wondered, "It sounds like a cat is meowing. It seems like a wild cat has entered our yard. Have you seen it?"

At this time, Wu Yun had long disappeared from the counter.
