That lion was definitely not a wild lion from this world. It had auspicious clouds under its feet and was about the same size as a hill. There was fairy mist hanging around its side. And the fur on its body was as red as burning fire and very domineering.
The black cat had a solemn expression, its long tail was very straight, and the smooth black fur around its body created a halo of light. Compared with the lion’s turbulence, every step it took was leisurely and restrained, but it was still difficult to ignore.
Shen Yu’s head hurt when he saw them. He felt they were very familiar, and the two names were ready to be recalled.
However, when these two majestic beasts came to the dark-haired man, they squatted down respectfully. The black cat also bowed to him and said clearly: “Meow.”
The straight man: “Speak directly.”
The lion opened his mouth and roared several times, gesticulating as if he was anxious. The black cat meowed beside him and added something, but Shen Yu didn’t understand at all.
But the man understood. He frowned and raised his hand to signal them to calm down.
“I understand.” The man stood up, put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth on the spot for a moment, and said in a deep voice, “I will handle it myself, please step back.”
The lion and cat opened their eyes wide and meowed. As a result, the man swept them out of the hall with a wave of his hand, and then closed the stone door.
He was the only one left in the huge hall again. He clasped his hands together and slowly pulled out a ball of thunder and lightning. With a slight throw, the ball of electricity enveloped him. He closed his eyes tightly inside, his expression a little painful.
Shen Yu watched in amazement as he electrocuted himself for a long time, until the electric light melted away, and the man turned into a stone sculpture. Judging from the material, it seemed to be very similar to those stone statues of mythical beasts outside.
A bright little dot overflowed from the stone sculpture, paused sluggishly in the air for a while, and suddenly swooped down like an arrow!
Shen Yu also swayed and flew downwards following the light spot. The speed was as fast as a rocket. They passed through the clouds all the way. The light dimmed and brightened. Because the picture flashed by too fast, Shen Yu didn’t see clearly how much the scene had changed along the way, all he knew was that the scene in front of him was definitely not from the human world. The last scene was a sea of water, where Shen Yu felt a strong sense of suffocation. Although he did not need to breathe now, he still had the illusion of dying.
As he felt more and more uncomfortable and painful, he heard a familiar voice again.
“Shen Yu, Shen Yu…!”
“Mr. Shen, wake up!”
Shen Yu suddenly felt as if he had fallen to the ground from a high altitude, and his consciousness returned to his body. He slowly opened his eyes, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
“Wake up, wake up!” Xu Maomao’s enlarged cat face came up as he licked his sweat beads boldly.
The voices of the boss and Baobao also reached his ears noisily at the same time, but Shen Yu was still a little unclear at this time and could not hear what they were saying at all.
Seeing that his eyes were not focused, the boss helped him up, and another man he had never seen before took out a thumb-sized glass bottle. This man had red hair that seemed to have been chewed by a dog and very delicate eyebrows. He unscrewed the cap of the bottle and poured out a little of the oily green liquid inside, then twisted a little with his fingertips and applied it to Shen Yu’s forehead.
Suddenly, a pungent smell of mint jolted Shen Yu back to his senses.
——Damn the smell of mint oil!
“Were you having a nightmare?” Qian Ling asked with a frown.
Shen Yu’s voice was hoarse: “Who are you?”
“The receptionist of our hotel.” The boss explained.
“Shen Yu, why are you here?” Xu Maomao grabbed his collar, a little worried.
Shen Yu wiped away the annoying mint oil from the center of his forehead, and finally regained some energy: “I saw you guys went downstairs before coming back… so I walked to the twelfth floor, and I lost consciousness as soon as I came in.”
Baobao looked at him silently, then suddenly said: “Human, did your soul leave your body just now?”
Everyone immediately turned back to look at the tabby cat.
Baobao hesitated for a moment: “I’m not sure either, but before he woke up just now, I clearly felt that his soul was not in his body…”
Qian Ling agreed: “Xiao Xiao’er is right, the soul was indeed separated just now. Because our hotel is connected to all walks of life, there will be different forces tearing apart souls. Human souls have the weakest adhesion. Without the protection of the barrier, they will easily overflow. Tsk, that’s why we didn’t want to let you run around. Well, it’s true!”
Xu Maomao pulled at Shen Yu fearfully: “It’s just that you are so old and still disobedient.” Wouldn’t it be uncomfortable to roam around as a soul? What if your soul was trapped by some ghost? He was almost going to be a widowed cat.
Shen Yu scratched his dry little nose dumbfounded, wanting to tell him that he had really drifted to a strange place just now, and even saw Suan Ni and Black Lightning!
Even the mansion seemed familiar, but Shen Yu swore that except for the last dream, he had never visited those places since he was a child. However, everything there, including that man, felt inexplicably familiar to him.
Who was he? What was the purpose of calling him there?
But Shen Yu didn’t want Xu Maomao to worry about him, so he didn’t tell him. He would find the answer on his own.
….
The boss sent them all back to the room this time, and once again gave Shen Yu a bottle of cute cow milk. He said seriously: “Mr. Shen, our milk is not ordinary milk. It has a powerful soothing effect. You are a human being, it is quite dangerous in our hotel, please drink the milk.”
Qian Ling: “It is a big deal for the soul to leave the body. This milk is actually not for the physical body, but for the soul. It can make mortals’ souls returns to its proper place and let the yin and yang become one.”
Shen Yu didn’t take it and said with a pale face: “Thank you, no need.” To be honest, he felt uncomfortable just after drinking the milk.
Shen Yu brushed the cold sweat off his forehead and turned around to enter the room. He really wanted to rest now. He was not tired physically, but he felt weak mentally from the inside out.
The boss held the milk bottle awkwardly, and Qian Ling cursed in a low voice: “This mortal doesn’t know whether to live or die, so let’s just let the ghosts come out and eat him! With so many merits, it must be delicious!” He licked his tongue as he spoke, “Actually, I can also eat people~ I miss it after not eating for a long time.”
Xu Maomao was so frightened when he heard this that he quickly closed the door with his paws.
Shen Yu’s face was really ugly and he had been sweating all the time, but he still insisted on asking about Pu Xuan clearly. After learning that he had been reincarnated, he nodded and seemed to be satisfied with the ending of the matter. Halfway through, both Baobao and Xu Maomao wanted to let him drink the milk, but he was very uncooperative. He pushed the milk away like a picky child, stuffed his face with a pillow and fell asleep, then half asleep with his eyes squinting in a daze, he scratched all over the bed, trying to find the cat dumpling, and then he caught Baobao who was lying nearby.
Baobao was a little shy when he picked him up, but before he was rubbed twice, Shen Yu realized that this was not his cat. So, he threw it away and touched the balled up Xu Maomao. He sighed contentedly and fell asleep with him in his arms.
Baobao squatted on the edge of the bed aggrievedly and couldn’t help but miss the cold embrace of his little master just now.
