He was practically half-dead from all the stress.
I've suffered a lot in my life, but this is the first time I've experienced something so utterly humiliating.
Unfortunately, he was dealing with a stubborn animal that wouldn't listen to reason. No matter what he said, the cat wouldn't even glance at him.
If he gets annoyed by him, he'll suddenly swat at you with his claws without warning, and you'll be so angry you'll want to grind your teeth.
The little girl never returned, and the dead cat was clearly in a bad mood, taking it out on him.
As the sun grew stronger, even the slightest groan from him would earn him a swipe of the dead cat's claw.
His face was covered in several bloody scratches.
He felt dizzy, his head was throbbing, and his heart was pounding. Sun Anguo looked at the black cat perched on a tree branch not far away and said weakly, "Cat God, I really can't hold on any longer. I'm afraid I've got heatstroke. Look at me like this, even if you let me go, I can't run. Please, have mercy and let me find a shady spot to wait for the police!"
He didn't want to die, he didn't want to die! That's why he joined that organization.
But in this weather and under this sun, his old bones are really going to fail him.
There is hope as long as one is alive. Even if God makes his life full of hardships, he refuses to accept his fate and insists on finding every possible way to survive!
In the past, in order to survive, people traveled all over the country, enduring wind and rain, sleeping in the open – a truly miserable existence.
This was his first time taking on a mission from the organization, and he never expected to fail on his very first attempt.
Even if he goes to jail, he can still get food; he still wants to live.
Sun Anguo turned his gaze to the black cat.
Su Yongli jumped down from the tree branch, walked indifferently to Sun Anguo, and then jumped on him, her head touching Sun Anguo's forehead.
Sun Anguo was so frightened that he dared not move or even breathe.
This black cat is very different, and even the little child is not an ordinary person.
Seeing that Sun Anguo's heartbeat was indeed erratic, Su Yongli jumped away, leaped onto a large tree, manipulated the branches, and quickly shifted the layers of leaves to shield Sun Anguo from the scorching sun, allowing him to recover.
As for wanting to be released, don't even think about it.
Humans are the most cunning, but no matter how powerful he is, he's just a cat; his magic is too weak.
Moreover, Sun Anguo might possess supernatural abilities. When his hands were bound, he was in dire straits; once his hands were untied, he might be able to turn the tide.
Su Yongli solved Sun Anguo's problem with the scorching sun and then left him to his own devices.
Sun Anguo licked his chapped lips and pleaded again, "Cat God, could you give me some water... I'm old, I really can't go a day without food or water..."
"Cat Fairy..."
This time, no matter what Sun Anguo said, Su Yongli didn't even lift her eyelids.
The old man had neither food nor drink, and neither had he.
Don't be fooled by this old man's rant that he's about to die; he just had a checkup, and while he is indeed feeling unwell, he's not going to die yet.
Su Yongli would occasionally prick up her ears to listen for any sounds, and occasionally look into the distance.
Why hasn't the little princess arrived yet? She must have forgotten about me!
As the sun sank lower, we finally heard some noise.
Su Yongli leaped down from the tree and ran over in one swift motion.
Upon seeing the figure, he suppressed all his eagerness and reverted to his indifferent and aloof demeanor.
"Little Tanuki, Little Tanuki."
Su Tiantian called out to Su Yongli from Xing Yuan's back.
Su Yongli turned and left, her tail drooping and swishing from side to side.
He's pretending to be angry; the little princess will come and coax him, right?
Even if she forgets him, he won't care at all as long as the little princess says a kind word.
"Little Tanuki, are you hungry? I brought you a big duck leg!"
Su Tiantian had no contact with Su Yongli and was unaware of Su Yongli's ulterior motives; she was simply expressing her apology and making amends.
Su Yongli was her good friend.
"I accidentally fell asleep. You're the bravest, smartest, and most generous cat in the world, you won't be angry, right?"
Su Tiantian smiled sweetly, her voice incredibly sweet.
Su Yongli, with her tail held high, ran towards Su Tiantian.
Su Tiantian got off Xing Yuan's back and took out a large duck leg to feed Su Yongli.
Xing Yuan led his men forward, and in the distance, they saw the old man who was tied up.
The old man looked so pitiful, and he reeked of a foul odor. But when he saw them, he was moved to tears of gratitude!
He didn't seem like a villain waiting to be arrested, but rather like a victim who had been tortured and kidnapped and was waiting to be rescued!
"Comrade soldier, I am guilty, I confess, I will tell you everything..."
Sun Anguo looked at the soldiers in uniform and said, his voice choked with emotion.
In that short half-day, he resigned himself to his fate and only hoped that he would be arrested and taken to the police station soon.
He's given up trying to change his fate; he just wants to live a peaceful life.
He was even relieved that he hadn't killed anyone and still had a chance to reform himself.
He's so old, he won't be able to do hard labor in prison. Maybe the prison can give him the peaceful life he wants.
Therefore, he felt no fear or resentment at being arrested, only the expectation of finding peace.
Xing Yuan raised his hand, and his men immediately untied Sun Anguo, but also handcuffed him.
Even though Sun Anguo appeared to be bowing his head in repentance, they still wouldn't let their guard down. Who knew if he was faking it?
Su Yongli ate a big duck leg, rubbed her head against Su Tiantian's calf, and touched the spot where Su Tiantian had fallen with her paw.
【Master, does it still hurt? With me watching over that old man, you don't need to worry at all. Take it slow, it'll be alright!】
Su Yongli had forgotten how agitated he had been not long ago, because Sun Anguo had squeaked twice and scratched him.
"It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, Little Fox is the best."
Those minor injuries are her medals, so this little bit of pain is nothing to worry about.
Looking at Sun Anguo who had been arrested, Su Tiantian curiously covered her nose.
Sun Anguo almost fainted when he saw it.
He's completely lost face.
Xing Yuan immediately ordered someone to take Sun Anguo away, while he himself squatted down and carried Su Tiantian on his back.
Su Chengguo, walking beside him, remarked, "Why is this old man different from before?"
Su Chengguo had seen Sun Anguo collecting seahorses in the village before.
She's a completely different person now.
This wasn't because of any dishevelment; rather, her entire appearance had changed.
“Uncle, he has something stuck to his face, that’s why he looks different. I have a way to fix it, I know everything.”
Su Tiantian smiled and said confidently and proudly.
This little thing is nothing to her.
Sun Anguo stumbled as he walked ahead, and couldn't help but shiver. What kind of deity had he offended?
No wonder she dared to try and capture her at such a young age; no wonder she knocked herself down with a single punch.
Fortunately, he had just given up resisting and hadn't cried out for justice, otherwise who knows what other suffering awaited him.
Thinking about this, Sun Anguo felt even more that prison was a good place.
Sun Anguo was taken directly back to the army base, and Su Tiantian went with him. But before Su Tiantian could do anything, Sun Anguo confessed on his own.
After peeling off the thin film on his face—all you need is garlic juice—his true appearance was revealed. With a fawning smile, he said, "This is what I really look like. The little immortal has seen it!"
