Chapter 178 Wangcai and Baifu
As soon as the door was opened, four cats immediately flashed to the door.
But just before they stepped out with their front paws, the four cats stopped at the same time and turned to look at Nan Ci.
Although they cannot speak, they can clearly express what they are thinking with their eyes.
They were looking at Nan Ci and asking if they could go out.
Nan Ci nodded to the four cats, "It's okay, go out and play if you want, I'll go with you."
As soon as Nan Ci finished speaking, the four cats ran out impatiently.
Looking at their departing backs, Nan Ci could clearly feel the joy and happiness emanating from them.
Sure enough, even for animals like cats that stay at home, their emotions are completely different when they stay at home voluntarily and when they are forced to stay at home.
The black dog outside was still parkouring, and suddenly noticed the arrival of the four cats. It jumped into the air as if its tail was stepped on, and barked at the same time.
But when it landed, it found that the four cats did not show any hostility or threat to it, so it twitched its nose gently and circled around the four cats.
Perhaps friendship between animals always comes so quickly.
It wasn't long before a dog and four cats started playing.
Not only do they get along very well, you can also see that they are all very happy.
Watching them playing together, Nan Ci couldn't help but recall the scene when the four cats and the little turtle played together.
I don’t know what’s happening to the little turtle, its owner, and its owner’s friends now.
Whenever he thought of them, Nan Ci would feel melancholy.
After all, they are not like her, who have a space to back them up.
Without being able to go out hunting, their supplies wouldn't last long...
It’s a pity that she doesn’t know where she is now, let alone the way to the base. Even if she wants to help, she is unable to do so.
I can only sigh and pray that everything goes well for them.
As I was sighing in my heart, I suddenly heard footsteps approaching.
Nan Ci cleared away the distracting thoughts in his mind and looked in the direction where the footsteps came from with his sharp eyes.
The man was still dressed the same way, standing two meters away from him.
"Thank you for letting your cat come out to play with Wangcai."
Good fortune?
Is that the black dog's name?
Thinking of the majestic appearance of the black dog after it grew bigger, Nan Ci really couldn't connect it with this name.
This thought only flashed through Nan Ci's mind, and Nan Ci quickly shook his head.
"They wanted to come out to play, and I asked them to come out to play with Wangcai."
How could she allow her four cats to become playmates of other dogs if they were not related to her?
The man smiled, his eyes curved, "It doesn't matter what the reason is, as long as they are having fun."
Nan Ci agreed with this and nodded silently.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Crazy. I raise that black dog. Its name is Wangcai."
The madman introduced himself so solemnly that Nan Ci did not just do it perfunctorily.
"My name is Nanci, and I raise those four cats. They are Tangyuan, Tiantian, Zizi and Baibai."
The madman looked at the four cats and said in agreement, "The name of the cats is as good as it sounds. Have you been here for a long time?"
"For some time."
"That's good." There was an inexplicable emotion in the madman's tone. After saying these four words, he did not speak for a long time.
Nan Ci tilted his head, "Wasn't it good for you to be somewhere else before you came here?"
“Tsk.”
Although the madman's face was blocked by a mask, Nan Ci could imagine his expression just by hearing this one word.
“It was pretty good.”
The madman suddenly spoke, his voice sounding a little faint.
"I am in a small base. There aren't many people in the base, but there are also many mutant animals like Wangcai. They are all mutated pets raised by everyone.
After the pets you raise mutate, they basically won't attack people. They can also communicate with their owners and work together to deal with the mutated animals that attack the base.
Although there was not much rice, flour and other food, there was no shortage of meat, so life was still manageable.
Perhaps because the days had been like that for a long time, people no longer paid attention to storing meat, and even picked and chose, throwing away some that they didn't like. They always hunted the freshest ones to eat.
In this situation, a snowstorm suddenly hit and we all moved underground, but we had limited food and no way to go out, so we soon began to feel hungry.
In this situation, someone has turned their attention to Wangcai and the others."
Having said this, the madman stopped.
He remained silent for a long time.
Nan Ci did not urge him to continue.
After hearing this, even if he didn't continue, Nan Ci could guess what happened next.
But the madman did not remain silent.
After a while, the madman spoke again.
“They killed a dog named Baifu, Baifu used to be very capable and powerful, and helped them kill many mutant animals.
Mutated animals like Baifuwangcai have a relatively large appetite, but because they know that we don’t have much food, after moving underground, Baifuwangcai and others don’t eat much at all.
When Baifu's owner pointed the knife at it, it didn't even resist.
I don't know if it was too hungry to fight back or if it just didn't want to fight back.
Its owner probably doesn’t care about these things, and he eats them with great relish…”
"I don't know when this snowstorm will stop. I know that if it doesn't stop, after they finish eating Baifu, they will set their sights on Wangcai."
"I wouldn't eat Baifu with them, so I took Wangcai and left there. We ran for nearly a day before we saw a building over here... Fortunately, there were people here, otherwise without the fire source, Wangcai and I would have died here."
"On the way, I told Wangcai that even if I froze to death outside, it would be better than dying at the hands of those people."
"But now that I am alive, I will live well. It is better for them to be alive as well. When the snowstorm stops, I will bring Wangcai back to find them."
The madman didn't say what he was going to do when he found them, but Nan Ci could guess.
Nan Ci curled his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes, "I do have to go back."
If they die, their bones will be scattered.
If they are not dead, then give them a ride.
While the two of them were talking, the four cats and one dog were having a lot of fun.
Probably because they had enough fun, they ran back with their tongues sticking out and their bodies shaking.
"It's quite cold outside. Now that they have had enough fun, let's take them back. We will go back too."
The madman waved his hand and took Wangcai back to the room.
