Chapter 10 Cats worship the gods, dogs drive away evil spirits
Weird, this scene is really too weird.
At half past twelve in the middle of the night, a dwarf donkey suddenly made a creepy cry, and then fell to the ground, howling non-stop, rubbing its back on the ground non-stop, and under the weird howling, there was also a creepy laughter hidden.
The laughter was very crisp, and it seemed to come from the back of the dwarf donkey, as if there was a child I couldn't see, riding on the back of this dwarf donkey and playing.
This weird scene frightened me so much that my scalp tingled, and a cool air rose from the soles of my feet and went straight to my crown.
"Donkey chasing ghosts?" Widow Wang didn't seem to hear the weird laughter, but she obviously felt my mood change, and immediately became nervous. She grabbed my arm tightly and asked nervously: "You mean, there is a ghost riding on this donkey, and the reason why this donkey is doing this is to chase away the ghost?"
I was afraid of scaring her, so I didn't say anything, but just stared at the dwarf donkey.
The dwarf donkey was still rubbing its body on the ground, twisting its body, posing in various strange postures, twisting its body, and making creepy noises.
At this moment, a cold wind suddenly blew.
The soul-guiding flag blew in the wind and swayed, as if an invisible hand was waving the soul-guiding flag.
Then, the laughter sounded again, and this time it was clearer and crisper than the last time.
"Chuckles..."
"Qian Yu, what's that sound?" Widow Wang seemed to have heard it as well. She immediately looked around with her eyes wide open, her eyes full of panic.
"Hush!" I made a gesture to her to silence her, then grabbed her and slowly backed away.
No matter what the hell is in here, or what is happening, it has nothing to do with me. What
I need to do most now is to send Liu Laohan's body back to the cemetery and rebury him, and to delay the group of yellow-skinned people as much as possible, and wait for my master to come back and completely resolve this matter.
As for this...
don't say it has nothing to do with me. Even if it has something to do with me, I can't resolve it with my current ability.
I pulled Widow Wang back slowly. As for the donkey, it was still lying on the ground and rubbing itself, but the laughter stopped. However, from the donkey's behavior, it was obvious that the kid had not left.
Fortunately, it did not pester us, which made me slightly relieved.
"Let's go around it." I said and turned to leave, but at this time, Widow Wang exclaimed: "Where did these wild cats come from?"
I turned around and saw that a group of wild cats appeared from nowhere and gathered around the donkey. .7
There were quite a lot of wild cats, nearly twenty of them. The strange thing was that they were all black. At this moment, they all surrounded the donkey, staring at its back with their orange eyes.
But then, the actions of the wild cats shocked me.
I saw that all the wild cats were lying on the ground, leaning forward, stretching their hind legs straight, with their fat bellies pressed against the ground, and then pushing their bodies back and stretching their front legs straight.
"These wild cats...are they stretching?" This scene was so bizarre that even Widow Wang felt something was wrong. She said with a trembling voice, "Why are these cats all gathered here to stretch in the middle of the night?"
I shook my head and said I didn't know, but my eyes were already filled with fear.
My master has told me many bizarre stories since I was a child, and one of them was about a group of wild cats doing the same thing as the wild cats in front of me in the middle of the night.
My master said that it was the cats worshipping the gods.
I didn't understand it at first, but when I saw the actions of these cats, I immediately realized that it was just like a person raising his hands above his head and kneeling down to worship!
All creatures have spirits, whether cats or dogs, or animals like cows, sheep, and horses. They are born with spiritual powers and can see things that many people cannot see.
All creatures will instinctively feel fear after seeing those things and will issue warnings.
For example, a cow will cry when it sees you, a dog will bark at the air with its hair all over its body, an old goat will kneel on its front hooves and kowtow to the air, etc. These are all warnings issued by these creatures after seeing something unclean.
But cats are different from these livestock, especially black cats.
Master said that black cats have too much yin energy. Where they appear, there will often be something unexplainable. If they appear in groups, there must be disasters in this place.
Moreover, cats are more arrogant than other creatures. They worship the strong. When they see those dirty things, they will worship them instinctively. This can be regarded as a kind of warning from them.
And this kind of worship is called cat worshipping the immortal.
At this moment, more than 20 black cats were all crawling on the ground, repeating the same action to the dwarf donkey, and making a "meow" sound from time to time. The sound was very gentle, and there was a taste of submission in it.
Obviously, the thing they saw must be very strong, otherwise they would not have been kneeling down to worship it.
"What on earth is riding on the donkey?" I hesitated a little, whether I should open my third eye to find out.
However, just as I was hesitating, I suddenly heard a dog barking. At first, it was just one dog barking, but this dog seemed to be the leader. When its barking sounded, the whole village immediately became noisy, and the barking of dogs continued to sound in every corner of the village.
What surprised me was that although the barking of dogs was scattered all over the village, judging from the sound, the group of dogs were obviously gathering together.
The group of wild cats seemed to be frightened, and all of them tensed up and turned their heads to look in one direction.
I turned my head and looked, and then I saw a large black shadow rushing here quickly.
I was startled and thought, could it be that group of dogs?
Sure enough, almost as soon as I thought of this, a big black dog came over and barked at the wild cats.
This dog was very big, with shiny black fur all over its body and strong muscles. If it stood up, it would probably be taller than me.
This dog had such a strong aura, just like a general with thousands of troops behind him.
At this moment, when it barked like this, the dogs behind it also barked wildly. The wild cats were frightened and their hair stood on end. They tensed up and growled one after another. However, there were too many dogs and they were too big. The wild cats lost in momentum.
"Meow!"
The wild cats made a strange cry and then scattered in a hurry.
"Where did the leading dog come from? It doesn't seem to be from our village." Widow Wang hid behind me and whispered, "It's much better than the stupid dogs I raised."
This dog is indeed not from our village. The dogs raised in our village are all local dogs, and this dog is obviously not an ordinary local dog. However, I don't know what breed it is.
When the wild cats were dispersed, the leading black dog circled around the donkey, its dark eyes rolling around as if it was looking at something.
But then, the black dog's actions startled me.
I saw the black dog suddenly stop, then leaned sideways and raised its hind legs... Then
I heard a "whoosh" sound, and a stream of orange-yellow liquid spurted out between the black dog's legs, directly onto the donkey's back.
"Ah..."
A piercing scream was heard, and then a ball of black gas loomed on the donkey's back.
"Woof woof..."
The big black dog barked at the other local dogs, and the other local dogs, as if they had received an order, all imitated the black dog's posture and urinated on the donkey's back.
For a moment, the air was filled with a squalling smell, and the "swish" sound of running water lasted for a full minute.
This weird scene made Widow Wang feel ashamed and embarrassed, and she hurriedly said "Puh, Puh, Puh" a few times, and then turned her head away.
As for me, I was stunned and murmured in a low voice: "Could this be... the legendary black dog exorcising evil spirits?"
