Chapter 492 Cat Bows
The wife of Marquis Wu'an still found it a little absurd.
Not only did he help a cat without considering the circumstances, he even tried to talk to the cat.
Could it be that Lang Zhaoyi has some naive problem?
Thinking of this, she saw that the white cat did not continue to struggle after Helian Yue released her hand, but just lay on the ground in the same position as it had just been pressed to the ground, looking as if it would let her do whatever she wanted.
Madam Wu'an: ...
Si Linglong immediately stretched out her hand and gently stroked the thick white hair of Xixi to comfort her. Soon, the housekeeper of the Marquis's Mansion brought her everything she wanted.
Si Linglong first picked up the bowl of wine and smelled it. After confirming that it was okay, she whispered to Xixi, "It will be a little painful, just bear with it."
Having said that, he poured the wine in the bowl little by little onto the purple killer vine at the neck.
The strong liquor seeped through the murder ivy into its broken skin, and Xiaoxiao suddenly let out a scream of pain and struggled violently.
Si Linglong quickly signaled Helian Yue to hold its body down, then she took a cotton handkerchief and soaked it in the vinegar bowl, then wrapped the purple killer vine with the handkerchief and put it around its neck.
The movements of 朏朏, which was struggling in pain, slowed down significantly. It seemed that it could feel that the purple murder ivy, which had been tightening the more it was touched, was beginning to show signs of softening, and it no longer hurt its neck as much as before.
Si Linglong felt the softening degree of the purple killer vine under the cotton handkerchief. Seeing that it was almost softened, she immediately picked up the scissors beside her and cut the purple killer vine in half.
She soaked the cut purple vine in vinegar and told the housekeeper, "Take it out and burn it."
Wine and vinegar only soften the murder ivy temporarily and make it lose its "consciousness". If it is not burned in time, it will come back to life and entangle the next person who touches it.
This is the characteristic of purple murder vine.
A living vine that carries its own magical aura.
When she was little, she once pestered Brother Ba to follow him deep into the forest where monsters roamed, and as a result, her wrist was accidentally entangled by this vine.
Being entangled with this thing is troublesome, but it is nothing compared to absolute force.
She remembered that blue flames rose from Brother Ba's claws and he severed the vine with one claw. She felt ashamed, so she picked up the broken purple killer vine and took it home. She then flipped through the ancient books that Brother Ba gave her and studied them for a while. Finally, she discovered that wine and vinegar could temporarily paralyze and soften these vines.
That's why she recognized that it was the purple killer ivy that was strangling the thing, and she was able to say with certainty that she could help it.
After making sure that the vine on his neck had been truly removed, he struggled to get up from the ground. He did not mind the smell of alcohol on his fur, and stared at Si Linglong with his dark green pupils. After a while, he suddenly raised his paws and made a bow to her with a serious face.
This is a token of appreciation.
Si Linglong was stunned.
Even more shocked than her were the wife of Marquis Wu'an and others beside her.
This cat... could it be that it has become a spirit?
He can even learn to bow!!!
When Si Linglong saw the dumbfounded expressions of the people around her, she knew something was wrong. They had been pretending to be fine before, so why did they suddenly expose themselves?
I can only cover it up by pretending to laugh it off.
"Ha...haha, the old lady has really trained this cat well. It can even learn to bow like a human. The queen mother will probably be curious if she sees it."
As everyone knows, the Queen Mother also has a cat.
After being interrupted by Si Linglong, everyone thought it was strange and didn't think much about it.
Although there are not many people who can tame cats, who knows?
Those dogs can be trained to walk upright, and cats can bow, and it doesn't seem like a big deal, right?
Seeing that she had successfully fooled everyone, Helian Yue couldn't help but smile.
Si Linglong looked up at his slightly teasing smile, but snorted and turned her head away from him.
Obviously, she was still unhappy with his previous lack of trust in her.
Helian Yue felt embarrassed, but he couldn't say much at the moment. Then he heard Si Linglong ask that 朏朏, "If I help you, you can tell me the whereabouts of the old lady, right? Don't say you don't know."
The wife of Marquis Wu'an, who was standing by, was startled when she heard this. She seemed to have not expected that she had gone to such great lengths to save the cat for the sake of her old lady. She felt a little embarrassed at the moment, but she did not dare to hold out any more hope in her heart.
However, after hearing that, that Xixi seemed to look at Si Linglong deeply. After a while, its long white tail swayed once, and then gently curled around her wrist, with a hint of intimate comfort.
Before Si Linglong could react to what it meant, she saw Xiaoxiao turn around, take a few leaps, and nimbly jump out of the window, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Si Linglong opened her mouth in disbelief, and it took her a while to find her voice again.
【It...it's taking advantage of me! 】
Helian Yue's face darkened when he heard the voice, and he couldn't help but turn his head and glare at her.
Can this word be used casually?!
However, not long after that girl left, there was a commotion coming from the backyard. Not long after, a maid rushed in again, her face full of surprise.
"Old lady, I found it!"
