Chapter 139, First Release of Banxia Novel
Gunshots were heard in the woods again later. Every time Bai Li heard gunshots, she would hide for a while in fright.
After hiding for a while and seeing no movement, he ran out again.
Bai Li felt that the number of people pursuing him was decreasing, whether it was her imagination or not.
He's a clueless cat; he can't read maps and can't find his way around.
He had accidentally run into those people looking for him, but because he was small and covered in dirt, he could sit in a corner and no one would notice him.
Right now, he can't find anyone.
Dusk was falling.
The dirty little cat, its stomach rumbling, was struggling to choose between going out to find fruit and staying in its little ditch to sleep.
After a while.
The little dirty cat nestled in the ditch, covered itself with a pile of leaves it had collected, and closed its eyes.
"Meow."
You won't feel hungry when you're asleep.
The little dirty cat stretched out its paw, patted its belly, and comforted itself.
The night grew deeper.
Xie Chen walked alone in the forest, surrounded by black mist, his handsome face barely visible.
“Lili”.
Xie Chen murmured these two words, his bloodshot eyes still devoid of any clarity.
Only one thought remained in his mind.
He wants to find his treasure.
He wants to find the treasure he's already lost once.
There were unknown wild beasts in the forest, making eerie noises.
The cry sounded like it was about to hunt, but it was soon replaced by screams of agony.
It seems the predator has become the prey.
The wind carried the scent of blood.
Xie Chen's eyes flickered. In this bloody stench, he smelled the distant scent of someone from the past.
When an old friend arrived, Xie Chen had no desire to greet him.
He sensed Bai Li's presence through intuition.
I don't know how much time passed.
Bai Li woke up in the pit. He was so hungry that he couldn't fall asleep no matter how much he tried to hypnotize himself.
"Meow meow".
Mr. Xiang.
I haven't seen my husband's kitten in a long time, and I miss him terribly.
When he was first brought in, he was quite chubby, but now he's lost a lot of weight.
The poor little kitten sniffed and crawled out of the ditch.
He was hungry.
He wanted to learn from Blackfoot Cat and find something to eat.
It's still dark, but thankfully cats can see in the dark.
After walking for a while, Bai Lizhen finally saw half of the beast's body.
Fresh, bloody flesh was exposed right in front of me.
Bai Li trembled slightly, overcoming her fear, and cautiously stepped forward.
He only ate fruit, which was not enough to sustain his strength.
The raw meat in front of her hadn't been processed yet; Bai Li had never eaten it before.
But right now, in order to get out alive, he probably needs to eat something.
"Meow."
Before eating, Bai Li struggled and meowed.
He still wanted to wait for the man to come and save him.
After waiting a few minutes, the kitten, realizing the reality, closed its eyes and buried its head in the ground.
He only took one bite of the raw meat; the fishy smell was too strong, and he couldn't swallow it at all.
After sitting next to the raw meat for a while, the kitten got up again and went to find some fruit to eat.
But after taking only two steps, I heard rustling footsteps behind me.
Bai Li turned around, startled, and plopped back down on the ground.
The footsteps belonged to a beast that was enormous compared to him.
The beast's eyes revealed undisguised ferocity.
"Roar~"
The beast's growl was full of aggression.
Bai Li looked at the wild beast, then at the one next to it that only had half a body left...
These two look so alike!
Bai Li vaguely understood something, and he explained it as "meow meow".
"I didn't kill it."
Bai Li continued meowing, "It looked just like this when I came over."
The beast let out a mournful cry, ignoring the little ball of fluff's meows.
It raised its large paw and stomped straight at the kitten.
It wants to kill this dumpling.
"Meow!"
It really wasn't me!
Seeing that she was about to be trampled, Bai Li got up and ran backward.
The enraged beast watched him run away and, without hesitation, chased after him and trampled him.
"Roar~"
It's scaring Bai Li again.
Bai Li hadn't been eating enough lately, so she couldn't run fast. She didn't last long before she tripped over a clod of dirt on the ground and fell so hard she couldn't get up.
The beast stretched out its neck; it seemed it wanted to eat the little dumpling more than crush it.
Warm breath washed over my face.
The kitten, unable to get up, closed its eyes tightly, trembling, waiting to be eaten.
He dared not open his eyes; if he did, he would surely cry.
I'm about to die...
Bai Li wanted to be a cat with backbone in the end.
"Crack—"
Just as the beast's massive jaws were about to devour the kitten, it abruptly stopped.
The sound of bones cracking rang out; someone had smashed the skull of this wild beast. Bai Li slowly opened her eyes, only able to make out a blurry figure.
The person who smashed the beast's skull seemed to have sensed something and left quickly.
"Fine, I'll let you off this time."
"I'll come back for your life in a while." After delivering the death notice, the other party vanished without a trace.
"Lili?"
A person walked towards them from a few meters away.
Bai Li froze upon hearing the voice. He dared not utter a sound, afraid that it was a dream and that speaking would wake him.
“Lili”.
The man called out again.
Bai Li still dared not move; he was so nervous that he held his breath.
When he called out for the third time, the other person walked up to him, squatted down, and looked at him.
In this close eye contact, Bai Li clearly saw—
This is the gentleman.
He tilted his head back, and a few seconds later, he opened his little paws with teary eyes.
"Meow."
hug.
Xie Chen reached out and hugged the kitten he had been searching for for days tightly.
The crimson in his eyes had not faded, and even the black mist on his body had not dissipated.
But Bai Li wasn't scared at all when he held her in his arms.
His chubby body pressed against Xie Chen's chest. After struggling to maintain his spirit for many days, he was finally able to stop forcing himself when his master picked him up.
"Sir, I've missed you so much."
The exhausted kitten only managed to utter this one sentence before its head lolled to the side and it drifted off to sleep.
Xie Chen lowered his eyes and looked at the kitten in his arms with its eyes closed. The kitten's little paws were tightly gripping his clothes, as if it was afraid that he would disappear.
"Lili, let's go home."
As Xie Chen spoke, he hugged the kitten even tighter.
His figure moved through the forest like a ghost. Unlike the directionally challenged kitten, he remembered every path he had walked.
Two days later.
Xie Chen carried the feverish kitten out of the woods.
Behind them, Old Wu sat on a tree, squinting as he watched their retreating figures.
"It's a little late."
He was just a little late that day.
He saved the cat from the wild animal's jaws, hoping to let it die in a different way.
Unexpectedly, Xie Chen actually came over.
Tsk.
What a pity.
But it doesn't matter, he doesn't expect Joe to bring the cat over for him anymore, he plans to go out by himself.
When Xie Chen appeared before everyone outside, he had already returned to normal.
"Lili has a fever."
Xie Chen stroked the hot kitten and spoke to Bai Sitong.
“Go back, I’ll give him a check-up.”
Bai Si had long expected this to happen. His precious younger brother was already in poor health, and after spending so many days in the harsh environment, his brother definitely couldn't take it.
Bai Si's face was pale. If it were just a common fever, it would be easier to deal with.
But what if it triggers other illnesses...
Bai Si forced himself to calm down and took Xie Chen and his little brother home.
Everyone who heard the news rushed over.
This does not include Bai Rong.
Bai Rong was rushed to the hospital. The doctor said that if she had been delayed any longer, even a miracle worker couldn't have saved her.
After several hours of emergency treatment in the operating room, Bai Rong's vital signs stabilized, but she remained unconscious and is currently under observation and treatment in the ICU.
now.
At Bai Si's house, Xie Bo, who was quite old, also came.
He brought Xie Chen and Bai Li's change of clothes. Among Bai Li's clothes were cat costumes and clothes she would wear after transforming.
Following Bai Si's instructions, Xie Chen used hot water to wash the dirty kitten clean.
After washing it clean, he put the kitten into a small basin filled with medicine.
"These medicinal herbs are very potent; Lili will feel uncomfortable if she soaks in them. Xie Chen, hold him down and don't let him out."
The potent medicinal herbs soaked the kitten, which pawed at them and meowed incessantly.
Seeing him like this, Xie Chen felt a sharp pain in his heart.
"Lili, be good."
He kissed the kitten's forehead, coaxing the kitten that was trying to climb out: "Soak it a little longer, it'll be fine in a bit."
Bai Si said that this medicine basin needs to be soaked for another half hour.
"Meow."
Sir, sir, hug me.
The kitten's whimpering and meowing tickled his ears like tiny hooks.
He didn't open his eyes, but kept complaining that he felt uncomfortable and wanted to get out.
Xie Chen had no way to get him out.
"Lili, bite me if it hurts."
Xie Chen held his finger to Bai Li's lips and made him bite it.
Beneath Bai Li's fur, the skin was seeping with the medicine, which was driving his body to the brink of explosion.
His little paws clung to Xie Chen's fingers, his mouth open, but he still couldn't bear to bite.
Finally, he just used Xie Chen's fingers to rub against it little by little, grinding his teeth.
Half an hour is a long time for both cats and people.
Finally, Bai Si, who had timed it perfectly, nudged Xie Chen's arm.
"Bring Lili out."
Bai Lin prepared fresh water and a towel nearby.
Xie Chen quickly washed away the medicine residue from the kitten and wrapped it in a towel.
"There was a fever reducer in the medicine I prepared earlier. Let him sleep for a while, and I'll go and brew some new medicine to prevent him from getting sick."
"good."
Bai Si went to brew the medicine, while the other cat brothers watched their beloved little brother suffer, their hearts bleeding.
"Xiao Yi, Xiao Liu, come out with me."
Bai Lin glanced at his two younger brothers' expressions and suddenly called out to them.
A moment later.
Tan Yi and Bai Liu were called out.
"I know what you're thinking right now, wanting to avenge Lili. But I want you to remember this: the other side is not a paper tiger."
"Revenge is acceptable, but taking risks is not."
Tan Yi and Bai Liu remained silent, only listening to their elder brother's rambling.
After nagging for a while, Bai Lin waved his hand, telling them to go to the side and not to disturb Lili's rest in the room.
Bai Liu and Tan Yi turned and left.
As Bai Liu reached the corner, he called his assistant in the lab: "I'm going back to the lab today, you don't need to come over."
He needs to go to the lab to make something.
Tan Yi was very clear about his own position. He knew that apart from being able to act, he didn't have any other strengths. To put it bluntly, he was just a pretty but useless person.
Therefore, the pretty good-for-nothing chose to complain to some idiot who spoiled him.
"Touch my Lili, and I'll kill him!"
