The weather turned warm not long after, and even in B City, which had always been relatively dry, drizzle began to fall in this early spring. From time to time, there was faint thunder and lightning in the sky. The store clerks said this was spring thunder, and it would definitely be humid and rainy this year.
On this day, Black Lightning suddenly sent him a message.
[Hei Mang]: The original plan was to investigate your reincarnation record in the ghost world, but now it has to be postponed. I’m sorry.
[Oscar]: Did something happen?
[Hei Mang]: Temporarily received a mission from the upper world
[Oscar]: (*@ο@*) Wow ~ what mission?
[Hei Mang]: Recently, there are many demons who want to overcome the tribulation. The upper realm is short of manpower. I need to coordinate the nine tribulation formation.
Xu Maomao was shocked. He always thought that things like thunder tribulation were struck out of thin air. He didn’t expect that it was still artificial?
It seems that I have learned some great secret! Does this mean that when you are overcoming the tribulation, you can get away by secretly saying hello to the people in the nine tribulation-laying formation?
But Black Lightning quickly interrupted his fantasy.
[Hei Mang]: We don’t know the list of people who are going to overcome the tribulation, so it’s hard to make a connection.
The principle was just like the Chinese students taking the college entrance examination. The black cat was similar to the question maker, but it was difficult for it to know the identity of the examinee.
[Oscar]: Disappointed.jpg
[Hei Mang] then said: The reason why I told you this is because the area I have to cooperate with happens to be near you.
Xu Maomao was startled: Could it be me who has to survive the tribulation?!!!
[Hei Mang]: The possibility is relatively small, but you are making rapid progress and are on the verge of transformation. Big thunder tribulations will not come to you so soon. Small thunder tribulations are still possible. You have to be prepared.
Xu Maomao panicked in an instant. He was in a state of confusion, as if he was about to be struck by lightning in the next second.
[Oscar]: Oh my God! How should I prepare
[Hei Mang]: When a thundercloud comes, pay attention to its movement. No matter whether it comes to you or not, stay as far away as possible.
If it is a thunderstorm for other creatures, you will be affected if you are close. For your own sake, run as far away as possible to avoid being affected by those around you. For example, the last time Brother Yu went through the tribulation, all the fish in the pond were damaged. Those who escaped slowly and were too close were directly struck by lightning and turned into grilled fish.
[Oscar]: QAQ sounds so scary
[Hei Mang]: Don’t be afraid, if it really wants to hit you, it will only be one or two at most
[Oscar]: Does QAQ hurt? Will I get burned?
The black cat chuckled softly and typed helplessly: I don’t know, I am a thunder cultivator. In short, you have to carefully observe the trends recently. In addition, if you really have to survive the tribulation, you can take the spiritual bone with you, but I suggest you try to resist forcefully first. This is a kind of experience.
To a certain extent, the black cat was also a cruel type. It actually suggested that Xu Maomao resist…
Xu Maomao cried and told Shen Yu about this matter, but Shen Yu said: “Then when the time comes, you can’t stay away from me.”
Xu Maomao: “Huh?”
“Because I have profound merits and will definitely protect you.”
Xu Maomao: (⊙ o ⊙)!
It seemed to make sense! It was often mentioned in supernatural novels that some small monsters with weak cultivation would hug the thighs of certain human beings with profound merits on the eve of their tribulation, asking them to protect them from the tribulation.
Thinking of Shen Yu’s profound merits stamped by Suan Ni and Black Lightning at the same time, he might even be able to absorb those thunder and lightning! The happy kitten immediately threw away his fear.
Soon, Shen Yu completed the preliminary work and began to promote the new location.
Xu Maomao was the treasure of the store, and of course he also acted as a mascot in conjunction with participating in the Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind activities, but now his focus was no longer on collecting love points, but on practicing. His progress of transformation was slow, as if it had hit a bottleneck. Xu Maomao was still unable to fully transform again. After being anxious for a while, he had no choice but to relax and continue practicing several times a day.
Because he had to work in the pet shop, he practiced in the shop several times a day. With Black Lightning’s instructions, Xu Maomao took the bone with him everywhere.
The bone was only as long as a baby’s arm and not heavy, so Shen Yu prepared a lockable zipper bag for him, put the bone in, and strung it around his neck.
In the pet shop’s health care center, there were several Corgis who were as fat as balls. Their legs were originally very short. Once they got fat, their four short legs could hardly support their chubby bodies, so their owners had no choice but to take the dogs with them. The dogs were here to lose weight. To lose weight, whether it was a person or an animal, there are only six words – shut up and move your legs.
Those three fat corgis had been on a controlled diet for several days. As soon as Xu Maomao walked in the door, their eyes became uncontrollably green!
Because the keen nose of the dog had smelled the scent of the bone on the cat.
“Woof woof!”
“Woof woof woof!”
Brother Cat, did you bring a meat bone today?
These unenlightened dogs did not have high IQs, but Xu Maomao was a cat demon after all, and the people in the store doted on him. The domestic dogs were still very afraid of him, and they just barked when they smelt the fragrance but they didn’t dare to make mistakes.
Xu Maomao: “…” He was careless and forgot about the temptation of bones to dogs.
“Meow~” I’m so sorry, I can’t give you my bone, they are mine. Smell it? That’s not possible either! Beating a dog with meat and bones will never come back! Xu Maomao will not be fooled.
The Corgis immediately stopped and whined, begging for snacks from the keepers to satisfy his craving, but their eyes never left the small bag around the cat’s neck.
Awoo, that bone is so fragrant, even from several meters away, they can use their noses to outline its shape to lure dogs!
The dogs in the pet shop didn’t have the guts to disobey Xu Maomao’s hegemonic authority, and no matter how greedy they were, they didn’t dare to covet the cat’s bone, but that was not necessarily the case for the coquettish bitches outside, especially when he squatted on the window sill to practice recently, he could always feel it. There were some quiet eyes secretly observing me.
It was not like he hadn’t practiced in this place before, but at that time he didn’t feel any eyes following him in the dark, but they did when he was carrying the bone, so Xu Maomao concluded that it was because of this bone.
After all, it was a spiritual bone, so the attraction range must be farther. But Xu Maomao felt that the person secretly observing him might be a wild dog, or a weak little dog demon. Xu Maomao was not afraid of these two, and they couldn’t get in anyway, as the people in the store would stop them; but even powerful demons like Black Lightning and Suan Ni didn’t look down on this spiritual bone at all.
So just in case, Xu Maomao acted more vigilantly and asked Shen Yu to tie the bag tighter and did not easily take the bone out even when alone. He did not let it be exposed anywhere except at home and pet shops.
Xu Maomao just squatted cautiously and boldly on the window sill, closing his eyes and concentrating. In the greenery outside the store, several pairs of small mung bean-sized eyes stared curiously at this beautiful and noble cat, exchanging timid glances with each other. They didn’t dare to get close, so just made some subtle “squeaking” sounds.
