Xu Maomao immediately thought of the bone. The last time the Jade Rabbit came, he had a similar reaction. Unexpectedly, Baobao’s nose seemed to be even more sensitive. Xu Maomao took the bone out and found that it seemed to be as gentle as jade and still glowing faintly. And he didn’t know if it was an illusion, but when Xu Maomao touched it this time, he felt a slight shiver all over his body. It seemed that for a moment, he felt like he almost went out of his body.
Baobao underneath reacted even more. Its tense body suddenly paused, and suddenly it lowered its head toward the bone and worshiped it devoutly!
Xu Maomao said awkwardly: “Why do you want to worship me?”
Baobao’s head stifled and replied in horror: “I’m worshipping the Bone Immortal Da Da!”
When Xu Maomao heard this, he rushed down with the bone in his mouth and pushed it in front of it: “What did you say? Bone Immortal?”
As a result, Baobao looked at the bone getting closer and closer to him, with an expression as if he was blinded by a flash and said in fear: “This immortal bone has so much spiritual energy!”
“Do you know whose bone it is?”
Baobao shook his head violently: “I don’t know.”
Xu Maomao staggered and almost lost his balance: “I wonder who you are praying to then?”
“This is instinct! Instinct!” Baobao emphasized, covering his little chest, “I couldn’t help but want to worship it as soon as I saw it. Its aura is so strong, it must have been a great cat immortal when it was alive. I just can’t help it. You would naturally be in awe of the Taoist little cat demon.”
Xu Maomao felt funny, distressed and speechless. It seemed that Baobao was really very timid. If he was allowed to see Suan Ni, he may really faint. He was really pitiful~
After Baobao got used to the so-called “coercion” of the bones, he calmed down and said, “Mao Dada, your breath seems to be on the immortal bones. Did they belong to your ancestors?”
Xu Maomao told it that he squatted next to the bones every day to practice. Perhaps it was because he was often around the bones that the bone was tainted with his smell.
“Actually, I don’t know whose skeleton it is. It was a gift from a Caucasian dog.” Well, that Caucasian dog said that he used it for grinding teeth, and that it was very delicious = =
Xu Maomao rubbed the bone and asked: “Can you identify the smell of the cat tribe?”
Baobao nodded: “Yes, the soul wave is very weak, but it must be from the cat tribe. Unfortunately, my cultivation is shallow and I cannot trace the complete soul wave.”
Xu Maomao asked with great interest: “You are so powerful, can you see what’s wrong with my soul?” He was a human soul in a cat body, so it stood to reason that the difference must be very big.
Baobao was frightened: “How can I spy on your soul…”
Xu Maomao begged: “Come, come.”
“…” Baobao suddenly had the illusion that the cat immortal looked like a coquettish kitten and had no choice but to agree to observe his soul in detail. Of course, compared to Baobao’s eighty-eight-year-old life, Xu Maomao, who was only 24 years old, was almost like his grandchild, maybe even a great-grandchild…
It was difficult to observe the soul of a creature that was still alive in the world, so Baobao cast a small spell on the Ragdoll cat. After a while, it worshipped: “As expected of the cat immortal, your soul power is very strong.”
“Isn’t there anything unusual?”
“No, I have never seen a soul more radiant than yours.” Baobao admired and almost fell to his knees again when he put his paws down.
Hey, Baobao was good at everything, but he was timid and had a slightly thick fan filter. Xu Maomao had no choice but to regard its words as the mindless worship of an idiot fan. Anyway, Black Lightning would come back with Oscar, the culprit, in a while, and his soul would definitely return to his original body by then.
However, the bone seemed to be very interesting, so Xu Maomao asked Baobao to help investigate. Baobao was naturally frightened and promised to help find out who the master was after his little master’s affairs were settled.
After eating the delicious salmon pilaf, Baobao almost shed tears. He had never tasted such a delicious thing before and cherished every bite. After licking the last shred of meat, he still smacked his lips after licking it. He was very grateful, so he bowed to Shen Yu and said, “You are the second human being to be nice to me.”
Shen Yu touched its little head: “You will meet more good people.”
Baobao pursed his lips and turned away, refusing to answer, obviously he still hadn’t let go of the past.
The next day, Shen Yu took the watch to the Patek Philippe store. Because it was too old, he used a lot of contacts and finally found the information in their B city branch database.
After an investigation, it turned out that it was indeed bought by Pu Shi, a noble at that time. The buyer was the head of the Pu family, who was thirty-four years old at the time.
This family was the fastest declining branch of the entire royal family. Sure enough, as Baobao said, a few years after the abdication of the dynasty, the entire family experienced long-distance migration. In the end, it was still unable to withstand the hostile forces at the time and had to flee overseas. However, the information obtained by Shen Yu showed that there were no children under the age of fifteen on the list of people going abroad at that time, which proved that Baobao’s little master was left back in China at that time.
Because the information was incomplete, it took several rounds to find their branch family tree. Finally, following the incomplete documents, Shen Yu finally found out the name and identity of the young master.
His name was Pu Xuan, the youngest son of the Pu family leader. Information showed that he inherited the position of head of the family at the age of nine but disappeared just two years later. Some said he was poisoned to death by the housekeeper, others said he was tortured and starved to death by his uncles, and some said his parents missed him in the underworld, so they let the kid come to them. In short, there were many inexplicable statements, as if the bad guys were looking for some kind of fig leaf for his death to cover up the scandal of a wealthy family.
It seemed that some kind-hearted people arranged the funeral arrangements for this poor young master. However, at that time, everyone in the family was in danger and were rushing to escape overseas without stopping. So, no one bothered to record where the dead young master was buried.
Even though it was someone else’s old story, it was still sad to look it up. Shen Yu exhausted all his connections and finally found the suspected grave of the young master, a mass grave not far from a small town near City B.
After hearing this, Baobao’s eyes turned red, and he checked the address several times. He couldn’t believe it: “Human, are you sure he is here?”
“I’m not sure, but this is all I can find.”
A fierce light flashed through Baobao’s big eyes, then it disappeared in an instant. It wiped away its tears, hugged the pocket watch tightly and choked, “I want to go to his grave.”
Xu Maomao and Shen Yu also brought flowers and other sacrifices and went to the cemetery together with him. When they passed one of the graves, Baobao suddenly stopped and stared at the grave. This tomb was also very pitiful. There was no monument at all, and it had been trampled into a mess. The small mound was embedded with all kinds of garbage from different eras, including rotten fruit peels, plastic bags, bicycle bags, and leftover fish bones, chicken bones, etc., it looked like a small garbage dump, and it smelled bad.
Just when Shen Yu and Xu Maomao thought it had discovered something, Baobao let out a hostile hiss.
Then, it shook its head and spat onto the grave: “Bah!”
