Chapter 600 Haining Cat Island (10) (1st + 2nd update) [VIP]
"What should we do?" Guan Hongyan squinted and looked forward, "It's really a bit hard to see clearly."
It gets dark much earlier on the island than inland, and the light pollution on the island is very light, so visibility drops rapidly after dark. It is really hard to see where the cat is. I can only see a very blurry black shadow squatting on the edge of the beam at a distance. It should be the trapped kitten.
Actually, if you want to see it clearly, there are ways. There are so many miracles in the Foundation Mall, but they are not for viewing. If Guan Hongyan wants to see it clearly, there are ways, but the problem is that it is not very convenient to use miracles now——
"Where do so many people come from?" Bai Jinshu looked around and asked curiously.
He remembered that there weren't so many people gathered here before he and Guan Hongyan went up, right?
The originally narrow corridor was now packed with people. When Bai Jinshu came out of the corridor, he didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but he felt that the air was much thinner than before they left.
"These are all here to watch the fun, Brother Du," Wu Meng explained in a low voice, "When we were rescuing the cat just now, a fan recognized Brother Li's identity and wanted to come up to help. However, the window was too small, and only one person could stretch their arms out at a time, so no one could help."
"That guy said he was the best cat catcher in the area within a ten-mile radius." Fang Xiang twitched his lips and pointed at a middle-aged woman wearing a floral top in the crowd, "But..."
Barrage silent speech:
[I was dumbfounded when I realized the cat was too far from the window and I couldn't catch it with my bare hands. ]
[The old lady tried to climb up the window, but was pulled down by Li Ge with his pupils trembling.]
【Arms are too short. 】
【Flying over eaves and walls type. 】
[People in their seventies and eighties are the right age to make breakthroughs. 】
"Well, it is said that there are more than a dozen cats at home, and he is the best at catching cats." Tong Yao quietly pointed at an old man who looked very excited, "Then..."
[Then he found that the cat didn't respond when he called out Mimi, so he went to knock on doors one by one to ask whose cat it was and what its name was, but he found that no one in the building had come to claim the cat.]
[The old man told the cat to start calling Mimi now, but the cat ignored him.]
【Only catch house cat type. 】
【Random naming type. 】
[Like my elementary school English teacher. ]
【Why is he like your elementary school English teacher? 】
[Because my primary school English teacher gave English names to all the students in the first class, I was named Tony by her. Since then, there were 16 Tony brothers in other classes. Later, we 17 Tonys found out that she used the same name library to name the students in each class. There were 7 or 8 Tonys before us, and there will be more Tonys after us.]
[I'm sorry to meet you this way, Tonys. ]
【God damn Tonys. 】
"This one was called by the old man with his hands behind his back at the beginning," Wu Meng covered his mouth and whispered, "He said that among all the friends he has played with for decades since childhood, he is the most popular with cats, um..."
【Well, then the old man performed his talent on the spot. 】
[The old man danced a piece for Grandpa Cat, sang a piece, and then ran away in front of everyone's horrified eyes, doing a backflip, and also performed a set of Dragon Tiger Fist and Eight-Section Brocade Diamond Sutra.]
[Unfortunately, Grandpa Cat did not respond to this.]
[Grandpa… Grandpa gave him the whole life? ]
【The type of person who is still strong despite being old. 】
[You have so much energy, you should go out and find a class model. 】
The people on Haining Island are simple and honest. Most of the neighbors have been neighbors for generations and are familiar with each other. Both young and middle-aged people are willing to help others.
Seeing someone rescuing a cat, everyone came up to help. Whether they were able to help or not is not the point for now, but everyone passed the message to others, and everyone showed their special abilities. Gradually, the "cat rescue team" in the narrow corridor broke through the mark of twenty people.
The result of the team's number exceeding 20 was obvious. Although the cat was not caught, there were so many people that there seemed to be no room to stand. Even Brother Li, who was standing at the front holding a lifting pole, was squeezed and could not stand steadily, and the lifting pole in his hand was about to fall out of his hand.
"Listen to me, young man!" The woman on his right was still shouting louder than the old woman next to him, "This cat is so small, just bring a female cat and call it, and it will come back by itself."
"No," another middle-aged woman on Li Ge's left held his shoulder and shouted back at him even louder, "It's so dark, you won't be able to see clearly and you will fall."
"You think the cat is you, old lady," the aunt on the right was overjoyed, "his eyes are much better than yours who need reading glasses.
Li Ge was sandwiched between the two people, wishing he could grow a second pair of hands to cover his ears. Just by looking at his back, one could see the pain in his expression.
"Isn't this just adding to the chaos?" Guan Hongyan looked at him for a while and muttered quietly, "Brother Li isn't going to chase us away?"
"It's hard to drive them away," Fang Xiang also whispered, "It's okay for young people, they will listen if you tell them, and they will leave if they find they can't help, but middle-aged and elderly people..."
There is a strong desire to express oneself and an even stronger desire to cause trouble.
The cat-catching program has become a talent show for the elderly, and Xiao Zhou felt like he couldn't take enough photos for a moment.
We refuse to force the elderly to perform, but we cannot refuse the elderly from performing.
[Apart from our Haining Island, where else can we see the big stage for the middle-aged and elderly...]
[The guy who did the backflip in front has good physique, and seems to be suitable for juggling. ]
[The old man is a Taoist disciple, practicing Eight Section Brocade and Diamond Sutra. ]
[The lady who sang bel canto was also good, I voted for her. ]
[She is a music teacher, a veteran artist.]
[I like the one singing Peking Opera, it’s authentic! Authentic! ]
[Beijing is the place where I live! ]
[Calm down, why did you still vote? This is about saving the cat, not "I Want to Be on the Spring Festival Gala"! ]
In the unknown space, Bai Jinshu felt that he was almost forgetting that he was saving a cat.
It is said that in their heyday, the old men and women were like a hundred ducks. Now it is obvious that thousands of ducks are having a meeting.
There were very few young people present, but there were a lot of middle-aged and elderly people who came to watch the fun. The old man who followed them up at the beginning was even now leaning towards Brother Li with his hands behind his back, watching and pointing.
"If you ask me, you don't have to bother with this anymore," he said calmly, looking very experienced. "Cats have nine lives, they won't die."
"Uncle," Li Ge was obviously a little annoyed by the crowd watching the fun, but he still patiently explained, "It's wrong to say that cats have nine lives. The height of five floors is already very dangerous. If this cat falls down, its internal organs will definitely be seriously injured."
"That's because you're young and haven't seen much," the old man argued. "You don't know that when I was a kid, cats were running around everywhere on the island. I saw with my own eyes a cat that jumped from a very high roof and was unharmed. It even came to play with us the next day."
"That's because the roofs were lower back then," Xiao Zhou couldn't help but interrupt. "It's only been a short time since we started building buildings on our island. When you were a kid, I guess the highest roofs were probably only two or three stories high. How can we compare to what we have now?"
This is a height of more than five floors, not to mention that the kitten is actually much higher than the ground level of the fifth floor, so it can actually be counted as five and a half floors.
It’s so high, something must be wrong.
Compared to humans, cats do have a greater advantage when falling. Their flexible spine and bones allow them to adjust their body posture in a very short time, thereby slowing down their landing speed with their limbs spread out facing downward, and then landing on the ground with their soft flesh pads, cushioning most of the impact of the fall.
However, this set of actions is obviously not a panacea. The second and third floors are okay, but the fourth and fifth floors will definitely cause problems. If you go higher, the survival rate will drop to almost zero.
"And just like Brother Li said," Xiao Zhou muttered, "When a cat lands, it rests on all fours. If it lands too high, its paws won't be able to support itself and it will land on its belly. It's easy for it to die from internal bleeding at such a high altitude. You think the cat is fine because you haven't seen its internal organs."
"Hey, you..." The old man couldn't argue with Xiao Zhou, so he could only glare at him, "If I say it's okay, then it's okay. I've been on this island for many years, you guys can just go away."
"Old people are like this," Wu Meng scratched his head and sighed, "My grandfather is like this too. If you refute his point of view and make him lose face, he will take advantage of his age and say that you don't understand."
"It's just a poor little cat..." Tong Yao said in a low voice.
A lot of time was wasted and it was completely dark. Just now we could still see the shadow of the cat, but now we can only see an outline. Looking outside with a flashlight, we can only see a little bit of the kitten's white fur.
At this time, it is almost impossible to use a crane to lift the cat.
Li Ge lowered the boom hesitantly, walked over to the exploration team members and discussed: "Why don't we come early tomorrow morning when it's light?"
"Will something happen to the cat at night?" Fang Xiang frowned. "It's so windy outside."
This is an island. There is nothing special at night except strong winds and a big temperature difference between day and night. A kitten is staying alone on the beam outside the building. What if it is blown off by the wind or frozen to death?
"Indeed." Li Ge also thought about it in embarrassment.
"I'll go see the cat." Just when everyone was stuck in the problem, Bai Jinshu walked towards the window.
The old men and women who came to join in the fun had already surrounded the place, but just like what happened in Maode Academy a few hours ago, the crowd saw Bai Jinshu and, like Moses parting the sea, they parted a path for him to move forward.
In the already dim light, the wind blew in from the window, making the young man in the center of the crowd's clothes flutter. His eyebrows were lowered, and he looked ethereal and awe-inspiring, as if he could float away with the wind in the next second.
【My family, I...】
[No need to say more, just go straight to the process. ]
I had my appendix removed.
【I had my wisdom teeth removed. 】
【I pick hemorrhoids. 】
【I have a stye.】
【I have paronychia. 】
[Good boy, before Du Zhongsheng came, you were all healthy enough to fight a cow, but after he came, you all became sick.]
[You are not sick, so cut your hand off and I will go get my rib nose fixed.]
[No, then I'll go get double eyelid surgery. ]
[? What I mean is, is there a possibility that there is an option of not joining the religion? ]
[No way, I want to haunt the Cat Saint like a ghost, even if I am in the form of a cockroach. ]
In the unknown space, Bai Jinshu, with the help of Huai Jiamu's eyes, could easily see the kitten on the beam outside the window.
Contrary to what everyone present imagined, the kitten trapped on the beam did not seem afraid.
In the strong wind outside the window, the kitten seemed to be curled up, but in fact it was climbing steadily on the edge of the beam, with the tip of its tail swaying leisurely from side to side, showing no signs of fear.
It just looked a little cold, and when the wind grew stronger, it shrank silently.
Noticing the gaze from another of its kind, the kitten turned its head curiously and looked in his direction. It seemed that it wanted to walk towards this fellow, but when it saw a group of humans at the window, it stopped and shook its fur impatiently.
This doesn't look like being stuck on a beam.
However, it is not ruled out that the cat was too small and it was too dark, so it had no idea what a dangerous situation it was in and thought it was on flat ground.
In any case, it’s a little unsafe for the cat to stand at this window anymore.
Bai Jinshu thought for a moment and then stepped out from the window. As soon as he walked out of the crowd, he saw Guan Hongyan winking at him.
"What's wrong?" Bai Jinshu walked over.
"Hey," Guan Hongyan whispered stealthily, "Have you seen the cat?"
Others may not know, but she knows that Du Zhongsheng's eyes are the eyes of the cat above his head. Human eyes cannot see at night, but cat's eyes can. Besides, in a sense, they are a pair of divine eyes.
You should be able to see the cat anyway.
"On the beam." Du Zhongsheng answered as expected.
"It's good that they're still here," Guan Hongyan looked around and whispered, "Can we work together to find a way to get rid of these people?"
Li Ge and the others had no way to save the cat, but she did. The Foundation had so many miracles, and it would only cost a few points to save a cat.
But the problem is that there are too many outsiders here.
Not to mention the old men and women who are still selecting the Spring Festival Gala program, Li Ge and Xiao Zhou are also indigenous people, and they can't let them see what strange things suddenly appear in their hands.
"Rice noodle rolls, rice noodle rolls," Guan Hongyan waved at Lu Changfeng, "Is there any way to make these uncles and aunts not see us using a miracle?"
"Drugs?" Lu Changfeng thought, "Drug them all... ah."
He was hit on the head by Guan Hongyan.
"Tell me something that people can use," Guan Hongyan said coldly, "Don't follow Chao Yougan's example."
[It’s so funny, what happened to our rich buddy? ]
[Our rich buddy has already become a god. This is the method used by gods.]
[I've had enough of you business war crash course schools. ]
"Then drive them away?" Lu Changfeng covered his forehead.
"I think so too," Guan Hongyan looked at the elderly people who were still performing with melancholy, "The problem is how to catch them up."
The old men and women won't listen to anything. Gentle persuasion is definitely useless, and driving them away violently won't work either. What if someone lies on the ground and says that they made the elderly angry and give them a heart attack or cerebral hemorrhage?
Apart from this, there are ways to drive them away without any conflict, such as fire. There is nothing else in the mall except for plenty of cigarettes and biscuits, but the problem is that once a fire breaks out, everyone in the building has to run downstairs. It is easy to explain it as an accident afterwards, but during the evacuation, no one can guarantee that the cats will not be scared.
The two looked at each other with worried faces, and the next moment, they heard a voice from the side: "Eggs."
"What?" Guan Hongyan didn't hear clearly.
"Eggs," Bai Jinshu repeated, "Eggs."
Guan Hongyan:?
Lu Changfeng:?
Barrage: [? ]
【Oh my god...】
[Cat Saint, you...]
【You are someone who understands uncles and aunts. 】
【You are a missionary.】
"Aren't chickens in your place called chickens?" The two of them were silent for too long, and Bai Jinshu couldn't help but wonder.
Guan Hongyan said slowly: "...No, we are just shocked by you."
The two of them were already at the point of creating fire and earthquake, but Du Zhongsheng just said something like throwing eggs. What is the simplicity of the great way? This is the simplicity of the great way.
"Brother Du," Lu Changfeng asked from the bottom of his heart, "How did you come up with this idea?"
Is this something anyone could think of?
"It's necessary for preaching," Bai Jin said calmly, "If you ask the elderly to come and listen to your teachings, they will definitely not come. But if you give out eggs..."
"Then they will not only come, but will rush to come," he concluded.
"Didn't you say that your sect doesn't want elderly people..." Guan Hongyan said silently.
Why are they still giving out eggs?
"The elderly are non-staff members," Bai Jinshu said calmly, "Although they don't join the church, they have to promote us since they took our eggs."
"Then what?" Lu Changfeng couldn't help but continue asking.
"Then if the police want to investigate them, they just fall to the ground and pretend to have a cerebral hemorrhage," said Cat Saint. "Chao Yougan likes this trick very much. He will wholesale a truckload of eggs and hire our publicity staff to go to the door of our competitors and make a scene. Afterwards, each person can get a board."
Guan Hongyan: "...You guys are so wicked."
God has eyes. It is rare to find such a wicked person as Chao Yougan. She was lucky enough to meet two of them in her life.
It's really the first time in my life.
The barrage also felt that it was something that happened in this life.
【All family members stand up! 】
【class biging! 】
【Hello, Teacher Chao! 】
【This is the substitute teacher. 】
[Hello, Teacher Du! I didn’t expect that I could learn some practical business skills after graduation. 】
[Family members, today's focus is to hire old men and women and use eggs instead of wages. Have you learned it? ]
【I have learned it.】
"What did Brother Li and the others say?" Lu Changfeng thought.
Giving out eggs can certainly make the old men and women leave, but that won’t work for Li Ge and Xiao Zhou.
"Let them find a piece of wood later." Guan Hongyan glanced at everyone present and stopped at the resident on the tenth floor. "Then ask her to go home and bring her cat down. See if the mother cat's cry can make the kitten come over on its own initiative."
With this arrangement, all the people present could be sent away together.
Perfect.
"Then I'll go buy some eggs?" Lu Changfeng took the initiative to speak.
"Let Wu Meng and Tong Yao go," Bai Jinshu stopped him, "You stay."
"Oh, okay," Lu Changfeng nodded, "Then I'll make sure the cat doesn't get into trouble."
Bai Jinshu did not refute his words, but just looked away, called Wu Meng and Tong Yao to give them some instructions, and the two girls immediately went downstairs quickly.
There seemed to be a vegetable shop outside the community. Not long after, a female voice was heard playing repeatedly on a loudspeaker downstairs.
"Healthy brand carbon fiber full magnetic latex healing pillow, heal your body..."
The uncles and aunts were indifferent.
"The first twenty residents can try it for free and receive a sterilized egg..."
The corridor was instantly boiling!
egg!
"The number of places is limited, first come first served..."
The elderly people outside have already started pressing the elevator button.
"Just to give back to the elderly, without making a penny, carbon fiber full magnetic potential energy latex healing pillow, dedicated to research for twenty years just for..."
Some impatient and nimble old men and women pushed open the door of the emergency passage and ran down.
"To give back to new and old customers, the pillow originally priced at 9998 is now only 58 instead of 998..."
In less than a few minutes, the corridor was empty, leaving only Li Ge Xiaozhou, who had no idea what was going on, and Guan Hongyan, who was shocked.
"No..." She twitched her lips, "Is it really that serious..."
It’s just an egg!
"You don't understand..." Bai Jinshu shook his head solemnly, "This is a battle of dignity."
One egg may not be appealing, but having eggs in only the top twenty is very appealing!
After all, there are only about twenty contestants present. It is not a big deal if everyone runs downstairs. Whoever doesn't have eggs will be embarrassed.
In order to save a cat, the old men and women who can make such a noise that the sky and the earth change color and do backflips while singing Qinqiang opera must never allow themselves to lose to their companions. There are no eggs!
[I've given you a chance to play with the provocation method. 】
[Business war is given to you to play for a while. 】
[Did you see this, family members? This is what the students look like after spending a long time with the God of Business War. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and enroll! ]
[The course that used to be worth 9998 now costs no more than 998, no more than 98, or even no more than 9.8. It is given away for free. All you need to do is have your appendix removed to join.]
【Only 20 spots left for admission! 】
【Let you learn, not that the disciple surpasses the master. 】
After the old men and women ran away quickly, the rest of the things became much easier.
The woman who lived on the tenth floor agreed immediately to bring her cat. Li Ge and Xiao Zhou also agreed to the idea of finding a piece of wood. In order to make it easier to move, Fang Xiang followed them downstairs.
At this time, only Bai Jinshu, Guan Hongyan, and Lu Changfeng were left upstairs... and perhaps Huai Jiamu and his cat.
Guan Hongyan let out a long sigh: "I'll go ask Yun Guang what to use."
In fact, she was more inclined to let Lu Changfeng flip over directly and use his invincible rock climbing skills to climb to the beam and bring the cat back. However, cats are not like sane humans. If they get frightened and jump down, it would be a waste of time.
"No need." At this moment, Bai Jinshu spoke up in time to stop him.
Without waiting for the remaining two people to reply, he walked to the window and looked at the cat on the beam again.
It was still leisurely swinging the tip of its tail, motionless in the cold wind, as if it had no idea how many two-legged creatures were working hard for it.
The next second, without any communication, the leopard cat above Bai Jinshu's head opened its mouth suddenly, as if it knew what he wanted to do.
Seven or eight blood-red tentacles suddenly gushed out, accurately grabbed the little white cat on the beam, and then quickly retracted.
Before anyone could react, Bai Jinshu turned around holding the cat and said, "Okay."
The leopard cat licked the corner of its mouth with its blood-red tentacles, leisurely grabbed the hanging rod next to it, and ate it with a crunch.
Guan Hongyan, who had seen the leader eat stainless steel cage doors, mice, scalpels and surgical scissors, was numb: …
Lu Changfeng was shocked when he saw it for the first time:!!!
Bai Jinshuo the little white cat in his arms:?
Little white cat:?
The author has something to say:
Refuse elderly people to perform, but no one can make the elderly give up voluntary performances unless you give them free eggs.
