Chapter 44: The Proud Cheetah
When the insecticide in her hand was almost used up, the flying ants, cockroaches, centipedes and rats had almost overcome the effects of the medicine and continued to attack Pu Zhi.
The cheetah dropped from the sky, more than twice the size of a normal cheetah, comparable to a full-grown foal, and one of its paws was larger than Pu Zhi's head.
Mmmmm…
It lowered its body and let out a low growl of urging. Pu Zhi somehow understood what it meant and climbed onto its back using both hands.
Seeing that Pu Zhi had grasped it firmly, he took a step back and exerted force, then jumped five or six meters high.
Pu Zhi on the cheetah's back clutched its fur tightly. Just now, she heard the cheetah stepping on a cockroach. The cockroach's body was crushed and made a bursting sound, which made her retching uncontrollably.
The cheetah thought Pu Zhi was injured, so it anxiously jumped onto the roof of a three-story building and checked her with concern to see if she had any wounds.
Pu Zhi, with a pale face, held up its head, which was bigger than a washbasin, with one hand and waved to indicate that he was fine.
After retching for a while, she finally came to her senses and realized that her protective suit had been crawled by insects. She immediately took off the clothes and threw them away.
Fortunately, there is nothing on this rooftop, so no insects come here looking for food.
Pu Zhi couldn't stand the dry heaves anymore, so he simply dug his throat and vomited out all the food he had eaten that day, and only then did he feel a little better.
She quickly checked her surroundings, making sure no one was nearby, then led Cheetah into the stairwell.
The next second, a man and a leopard entered the space. Suddenly, they changed places, and the leopard's hair stood up, its pupils shrank into a vertical line, and it kept roaring threateningly, hunching its body and ready to attack at any time.
Pu Zhi took a step back to avoid accidental injury, and used the listening conch again: "This is my place, don't worry, you see Xiao Ren and Qing Yin are here."
Qingyin lay comfortably in the air, without dancing around excitedly. Xiaoren was also very quiet, tacitly not stimulating it.
After a long while, it slowly lay down, but its whole body was still stiff. Even if there was any accident, it could react in time.
: Where is this?
Pu Zhi tried to slow down her tone to convey a message of safety to the cat: "This is my space, or my nest, and everything in it is mine. The meat you ate before is on the left, and the cloth and cotton that made your nest are on the right."
The cheetah looked vigilantly at the two places Pu Zhi mentioned. They were indeed the same. Qingyin's flower pot and Xiaoren's rice bowl were also there.
: Why are we here suddenly? We were not here just now.
Pu Zhi: "The space is different from an ordinary house. It is a kind of ethereal existence. It is there wherever I go. Normally, others cannot see it. I can come in anytime I want, and I can also let you come in with me."
The cheetah was wagging its tail and seemed to be a little relaxed. This was the first time it had seen such an open space. It was such a magical place.
It took a tentative step forward. Although there was no ground, it could walk anywhere. There was solid support under its feet, but in the eyes of others it seemed to be floating in the air.
It walked up and down curiously, and if it was bold enough, it would fly directly into the space.
When Pu Zhi saw that it had already started playing, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was no stress, it was good.
With just a thought, a bottle of bottled water appeared in Pu Zhi's hands, and it could open and pour automatically.
She washed her hands and exposed skin vigorously, and threw her shoes away in the stairwell outside the space.
The dirty water gathered into a pool and was also thrown outside.
Looking at the cheetah flying around, Pu Zhi called it over and gave it a bath.
Cheetah originally disagreed, but could not resist Puzhi's temptation of canned food.
During this period, it tried to escape several times, but was suppressed by Pu Zhi. Everything in the space was under her control. As long as she wanted, she could make the cheetah unable to move.
"Where have you been these days? I've been waiting for you so hard."
Cheetah snorted coldly, his voice was a little more mature than before, similar to the voice of a thirteen or fourteen year old girl.
: I went to upgrade, and now I am the third-level beast you mentioned, the same level as Xiao Ren!
Although he said this, Cheetah was thinking in his heart that he had become stronger, and she couldn't still look down on him.
Pu Zhi washed the foam off its body with water with concern: "You haven't had much water for such a long time, your well-maintained fur has become dry again. Upgrading should be done slowly, it won't hurt to come to me to drink some water.
At worst, I won't accept your crystal core anymore. You're so skinny that I can feel your bones. It hurts me so much."
As he spoke, Pu Zhi had already used his mind to pour a full basin of water and brought it to the cheetah's mouth.
The cheetah raised its head proudly, its eyes rolling around as it looked at Pu Zhi and then at the water. Does this human really care about itself?
Why didn’t you let me sleep with them before!
But if I don't collect crystal cores when I drink water in the future, then I will be the same as Xiao Ren! She has a little conscience, and it is not in vain that I came to save her.
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Cheetah's mind, but he didn't express them.
: Humph, you don't know this, the water now is much better than before, as long as you look for it, you can find drinkable water. Of course, you humans can't smell it with your nose, only a nose like mine can do it.
After saying that, the cheetah couldn't help but stick its tongue into the water basin and started drinking in big gulps.
Puzhi’s water tastes better. The water outside stinks. It would not drink it unless there is clean water. It also caused it to have diarrhea for the whole day.
Pu Zhi: "Yes, yes, your nose is the best. I'm leaving here. Do you want to come with me?"
When Cheetah heard that she was leaving, he was stunned for a moment. Everything was fine here, why did she want to leave?
"In half a year, the zombies will have a collective evolution. The number of level two zombies will increase significantly, and there will also be a lot of level three zombies. Their sense of smell and hearing will be more sensitive. It will be difficult for people to live alone outside, so I must go to the base." Of course, there was something else she didn't say in her heart. She wanted to explore the secret that the psychics also had crystal cores in their heads.
The cheetah was in a dilemma. He really wanted to follow Pu Zhi, but he didn't want to get too close to other humans.
Pu Zhi had just finished washing it and was wiping it dry with a towel. Hearing this, he suggested, "Why don't you stay in this space? I'll find a single-family house after we enter the base. You can stay in the house at ordinary times, and we can go out together when I go out."
To be honest, it might be a little difficult to bring a cheetah into the base openly. Since it doesn't want to contact others, entering the space is the best way.
