Chapter 25 I want to fight you to the death!
Jiang Zhiyuan rubbed his sleepy eyes and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.
I realized it was already three in the afternoon and couldn't help but marvel at how much of a lie-in I had gotten.
She jumped out of bed, walked to the living room to pour a glass of water, then went to the kitchen to get a bag of frozen dumplings and some fruit.
After eating and drinking, the two cats jumped onto the sofa and started to act cute.
Jiang Zhiyuan picked up Sansi and said angrily, "You're a system, not a real cat! Don't get too caught up in the role."
"I don't care. I said I'm a cat, so I am a cat."
Sansi struggled to jump down, sat upright on the table, held his head high and chest out, looking proud and arrogant.
"Alright, alright, I know you're awesome. You're the system king, so whatever you say is right!"
Jiang Zhiyuan couldn't stand Sansi's arrogance and had no choice but to give in.
"Humph, I'm going to fight you to the death!"
The sudden sound startled Jiang Zhiyuan, and he looked around but couldn't find anything.
Holy shit! No way! Dressing up as a ghost during the Ghost Festival really does attract ghosts!
"Tong, did you hear any sound?"
Jiang Zhiyuan held the system and Xiao Hei in his arms and listened around, but there was no sound.
"Master, there is no sound."
Xiao Hei was also stunned, then shook his head to indicate that they didn't hear anything.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhiyuan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was a prank played by the system.
It seems that I am really hallucinating. I need to go to the hospital for a check-up.
"Why does this master seem to be having trouble thinking?"
Jiang Zhiyuan's body stiffened and she looked down at the two kittens in her arms.
She was absolutely certain that the voice just now came from her arms.
"Think twice, this isn't a prank you've played, is it?"
Sansi seemed to have heard the voice as well. He lowered his head and pondered for a while before he patted his head in sudden realization.
"Oh, I remember now. I applied for a skill for you last night, but I forgot to tell you."
Jiang Zhiyuan was petrified. It turned out that it was really the system that was causing trouble.
"What skill?"
"Forest Princess!"
When Jiang Zhiyuan heard this name, the first thing he thought of was Snow White.
[Ding~ Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new skill - Forest Princess.]
[Forest Princess: You are the king of the forest, and you can communicate with animals without any obstacles. Go listen to the little animals' voices and become the most unique two-legged beast in their hearts!]
Jiang Zhiyuan roughly understood this skill. To put it simply, it means being able to talk to small animals and understand what they are saying.
For example, what Xiao Hei said just now was meow meow meow, but in her ears it became human language.
"Tong'er~ I misunderstood you before, you really care about me.
When the three of us end up on the streets, we'll go out and perform. You two will just listen to my instructions and I'll just stand by and collect the money."
Jiang Zhiyuan was deeply moved, but Sansi said he didn't dare to move at all.
"Good fellow, am I applying for a skill for you to use to harm me?
I asked you to help me take care of this little black cat, but you even arranged for me to work after I left home."
Sansi's big eyes like black grapes blinked and stared at Jiang Zhiyuan.
It seems like I'm going to give you two claws if you say something wrong again.
"Okay, okay, you are the ancestor, you have the final say."
Jiang Zhiyuan sighed helplessly. She had no way to deal with this little thing.
It's such a pity that they couldn't seize such a good opportunity to make money.
When the time comes and they have no canned food, don’t blame yourself when you eat dried fish.
After all, she had given him the choice, but he hadn't seized it.
"Master, can you understand what I am saying now?"
Xiao Hei raised his head, his red eyes rolling around.
"That's right."
Jiang Zhiyuan ordered two collars online, which were the kind that could be customized.
Sansi is a system, and I am not afraid that he will get lost, but Xiaohei is different.
But if I only buy one, it would seem that I am too biased, and I am afraid that Sansi will not be happy, so for the sake of fairness I just buy two.
Jiang Zhiyuan felt that she was a master of keeping things balanced, having avoided a family war, and silently gave herself a thumbs-up in her heart.
Then she took her two kittens downstairs for a walk and met many acquaintances along the way.
"Hey, Xiao Yuan, is this your cat? It's so energetic. Especially this little black cat is so handsome, just like the one in the movie."
When Uncle Ma saw the little black cat in Jiang Zhiyuan's hands, he couldn't help but praise it.
"Yeah, it's very well behaved."
Jiang Zhiyuan looked at Uncle Ma with a smile.
When Xiao Hei heard Jiang Zhiyuan praising him like that, his tail couldn't help but lift up high, just like a proud peacock.
After chatting with Uncle Ma for a few words, Jiang Zhiyuan continued to stroll in the community.
"Little baby, you are no simple black cat!"
An old woman came over with a kind smile.
"Um?"
Jiang Zhiyuan looked the old woman up and down. She was about seventy years old, well-maintained, and had a good temperament. She didn't look like a simple person.
This kind of old lady is generally not an ordinary person, and the "unordinary" in her words definitely does not mean ordinary.
So Jiang Zhiyuan smiled slightly and asked.
"Grandma, how do you know it's not simple?"
The old woman took Jiang Zhiyuan's hand and came to a place where there were relatively few people.
Sansi was a little depressed along the way. Why did everyone only praise the dark guy!
It’s obvious that I’m the best looking one, okay!
A bunch of guys with no vision and no taste!
"Master, I am the most beautiful!"
After hearing this, Jiang Zhiyuan lowered his head and looked at Sansi, who was obviously in a depressed mood.
Then she comforted him with a few words using a communication method that only the system and she could use.
"Yeah, you're the prettiest!"
After thinking about what he wanted to hear, he regained his composure.
The old woman and Jiang Zhiyuan sat on the bench nearby, and no one spoke.
Time passed minute by minute, and Jiang Zhiyuan leaned on the bench somewhat bored, intending to close his eyes and rest.
Suddenly, the old woman spoke.
"Little kid, your cat is no ordinary cat. It is a spirit cat that only appears once in a hundred years."
Jiang Zhiyuan suddenly opened his eyes, looked at the kind-looking old woman, and asked with a puzzled look.
"Grandma, you're joking. I just picked up this cat. How could it be a rare spirit cat?"
When the old woman saw this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then she smiled.
"Haha, I'm not kidding. Look closely at it, it doesn't look like a normal cat, especially those red eyes.
"The pupils are bright and contain the moon, which can predict good or bad luck. This is not nonsense, but there are clues to follow."
She originally thought that this person was also a fellow traveler, but unexpectedly he was just a passerby.
However, since she can get the recognition of the spirit cat, she should not be an ordinary person.
Jiang Zhiyuan put the black cat on her lap, and under Sansi's threatening gaze, she also put the calico cat on her lap.
