Chapter 43: Becoming a Cat

"Do you think it's me who keeps you from finishing the painting all the time? Do you think I'm deliberately making things difficult for you?"

Jiang He's unexpected and suspicious eyes fell on Zhao Xiufeng. Before he could ask a question, Zhao Xiufeng's originally ashen face showed a hint of sarcasm. He spread the papers spread out on the table so that Jiang He could see more clear.

His mind was hit by what he said, and Jiang He was speechless for a moment.

There was no sign of the cat painted last night on the rice paper. Except for the sporadic ink spots on the discarded paper, the rest of the blank rice paper was just like brand new.Zhao Xiufeng's appearance as if the sky is falling is not fake, so it is impossible for him to destroy or throw away the painting himself, and he has no reason to do so.

But it's so good, how could the cat in the painting disappear?While Jiang He was feeling unbelievable about the situation in front of him, he also thought about Zhao Xiufeng's abnormality yesterday, and he didn't know what to say at all.

Zhao Xiufeng saw Jiang He's reaction, and was not surprised at all. The first time he came into contact with mysterious things, it shocked his original world view. Some people chose to ignore it, some people doubted it, and some people completely denied it. Not much less than when I first saw it.

"You just hurt your wrist. The last one who drew cats is still unconscious in the hospital." Zhao Xiufeng wasn't trying to defend himself, he was just telling what Jiang He didn't know. As for why the cat in the painting disappeared, He himself didn't know who to turn to for answers.

From his standpoint, Zhao Xiufeng felt that Jiang He couldn't understand or accept it, and at least he needed time to make the transition, but he himself had spent too much time from denying it at the beginning to finally recognizing the situation today.

After all, he didn't know Jiang He, nor did he know that Jiang He's world view had changed a long time ago, but as soon as he finished speaking, Jiang He immediately understood what Zhao Xiufeng meant.It turned out that it was not an accident that he fell into the field while riding a bicycle, but some kind of "factors that cannot be explained by science". As he can see now, the painted black cat disappeared from the paper without a trace, as if everything that happened last night was just A dream he had.

The black cat brought by Zhao Xiufeng can understand human speech, so he should have thought that ordinary people should not be behind this incident.Another possibility is that the black cat has already cultivated to become a master, and it is secretly manipulating everything.

No matter what the reason is, Zhao Xiufeng said that he found many painters but couldn't draw a picture that satisfied him. In fact, it is impossible to complete.

Zhao Xiufeng clearly knew what the outcome would be, but still came to him to draw, and did not give him any warning beforehand, which put him in a dangerous situation inadvertently. He also said lightly that "it was just a wound wrist."

It was impossible not to be angry at all, even though the two sides' positions had changed when he took the initiative to find Zhao Xiufeng, it still couldn't change the fact that Zhao Xiufeng planned to drag him into the water from the beginning.

"You mean it's a pity that I didn't fall to my death?" He can't be blamed for being too horny, because even he himself didn't think that the car overturned was a big accident, but his wrist was inexplicable, so it hurt when he exerted force. I feel like my mind is about to explode.

"...whatever you think," he hesitated, probably because he thought it would be useless to say more at this time, sighed and tidied up the table, got up and left the seat, "I'm leaving, and... don't see you again Bar."

"You have the final say on everything, come and go as you want, you don't even want to explain, you have unavoidable difficulties, what do I owe you?"

"The promised 100 million, I will not lose you a point."

Zhao Xiufeng's eyes and tone were light and weightless, the more so, Jiang He became more indignant: "You know money, I can't earn that much in my life, but every time I make money, I have no regrets, I said I don't want you I don’t want the money.”

Zhao Xiufeng frowned: "Then what else do you want?"

He turned up his voice when he said this, and just as he finished speaking, a person suddenly walked in from the yard, his face was full of spring breeze, and his tone couldn't hide his cheerfulness: "What's the matter? You look very energetic early in the morning."

The person who came in was a yellow shirt, and he was holding a small black cat the size of a palm. The cat's eyes were round and wet, which was very cute.

Both Jiang He and Zhao Xiufeng looked at Huang Shirt, and the moment they saw the cat, both of them felt quite agitated.

The black cat in the yard jumped down from the tree and stared at the yellow shirt.

Jiang He felt inexplicably that the appearance of the yellow shirt at this time and on this occasion was not a whim.One of the monster's daily hobbies is to peek at his life. He watched it silently for so long, and if there was a real problem, he would have discovered it early in the morning, but if he didn't mention it, Jiang He would not listen to his sarcastic remarks.

"What are you angry about? Are you dissatisfied with your desires?" Huang Shan walked up to Jiang He while stroking the kitten in his arms with a smile, "Is it because your husband raised a lot of cats behind your back?"

Even if you talk nonsense, you should pay attention to whether there are other people present. Jiang He gave him an angry look first, and then asked suspiciously: "Cat? Where are there cats?"

Huang Shan said: "As soon as your husband left the house in the morning, dozens of black cats, big and small, ran out of the yard, and a bird flew away with the cat. This poor little cat probably has bad legs. He ran to my door and stopped."

Huang Shan put the kitten on the desk, and I don't know whether it was a coincidence or on purpose, and just happened to let the kitten stand on the rice paper. The kitten didn't know what happened, and suddenly his body turned into a cloud of ink-like smoke , stayed on the table for a while, and finally froze in the rice paper.

Transforming from a living being into a painting on paper, this kind of plot has been seen on TV, even though Jiang He already knew that monsters can turn into humans, he was also dumbfounded along with Zhao Xiufeng.

The smile on Huang Shirt's face also froze for a moment, but a monster is a monster after all. He quickly calmed down, held up the painting and looked at it carefully for a moment, and said, "You are very talented."

Can talent make the cat in the painting run away alive and then return to the painting?Then why didn't one of the animals he drew before come out?He also drew a lot of people.

"I'm not Ma Liang, this matter has nothing to do with me." Jiang He was still angry with Zhao Xiufeng, so his words were full of dissatisfaction.

Zhao Xiufeng snatched the painting from Huang Shirt's hand and shouted, "This is impossible!"

"Xiaohe!" Xiaogu's voice came from outside the door, and it quickly flew in and landed on Jianghe's shoulder, "I saw that cat enter the house in the morning, it got on the table, and blew a few breaths on the picture you drew, Then there were cats jumping off the table one after another, I didn’t wake you up, I followed them and ran out, but they ran away when they reached the mountain, I really had no choice but to come back first.”

Jiang He was extremely shocked. While looking at the black cat, the black cat was also staring at him.It was too late and then too soon, when the black cat turned into a cloud of black mist and rushed towards the river, the yellow shirt at the side quickly grabbed it from the black mist, pulled out a blank piece of paper from the table, and threatened: "Honestly! Do you want to change back into a painting too?"

When the black cat was not restrained by the yellow shirt, Jiang He was actually a little scared. During the few seconds they looked at each other, he saw in the black cat's eyes the anger of being deceived and the resentment and obsession to seek revenge after being hurt.After being caught, he struggled a few times to no avail. The black cat sneered again and again, his eyes still staring at Jiang He and Zhao Xiufeng with hatred.

When he didn't know the details of the black cat, Jiang He still dared to deliberately fool it. Knowing that it didn't just understand people's words, he was inexplicably afraid of it.People seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, not to mention that Jiang He has never been too courageous.

I don't know how much the black cat holds grudges. Forget it, Jiang He thinks that the jokes he made against it are harmless. If it came after Zhao Xiufeng, the hatred between them must be deeper than his own. He said Huang Daxian, who didn't care about it but would stand up for him when he was threatened, was fine, but Zhao Xiufeng's fate was really hard to say.

He couldn't tell whether it was a little gloating or what, relying on the presence of the yellow shirt, he asked the black cat: "Tell me, what kind of hatred do you have with him? What is the purpose of doing this?"

"What kind of hatred? I can't protect myself, so what purpose can I have?" Zhao Xiufeng thought that Jiang He was asking himself. He had just started to be dazed the moment the black cat turned into a black mist, and now he looked innocent and fragile with a dazed expression. "What just happened? This cat also ran out of the painting? Who is he? Why is it not surprising at all?"

The black cat didn't say anything, Jiang He could only say to Zhao Xiufeng: "I think you should tell us the cause and effect of the matter, otherwise no one can help you."

At this moment, Zhao Xiufeng still didn't feel that Jiang He was on the same line as himself. He said coldly, "Did I say that I need your help? This is the end of the matter, and everything is meaningless."

"Then you still come to me? Since you have to accept the reality no matter what, why do you want to involve innocent people?"

The topic turned back to the point of dispute between the two of them before Huangshan came, and Huangshan added fuel to the scene with a smile on his face: "First I jumped into the river to gain sympathy, and then I took the magpie's nest and forcibly separated the couple. I am ashamed to say that I have stayed here for so long. Didn't bother anyone."

Jiang He felt that if he was Zhao Xiufeng, he would definitely want to tear the mouth of the yellow shirt.

Sure enough, Zhao Xiufeng said viciously, "Shut up!"

Zhao Xiufeng's mental condition may be even worse than what they saw. After all, he has been deceiving himself for so many years, and it is impossible for him to have no mental problems. Excuse me.In order to avoid irritating him, Jiang He hurriedly said before Huang Shan opened his mouth, "Okay, let's do it that way. Good luck."

Zhao Xiufeng didn't bring anything when he came, and he didn't have anything to clean up when he was about to leave. It's just that his car was parked outside for too long, and it couldn't start for a while.

Jiang He made a phone call and asked Zhang Huai where there was a car repairer. Not long after, Zhang Huai brought someone over to repair the car, as well as two black cats, one big and one small, packed in cardboard boxes. He said: "They have been following me, and I also I don’t know whose family raised the cat, but many people said they had never seen it before, so I’m going to send it to Principal Xiao.”

Judging by their looks, these two black cats should have come out of the painting. Although Jiang He didn't want to interfere with Zhao Xiufeng's affairs, these two cats were not real cats either.In front of Zhang Huai, he impromptu performed a three-dimensional to two-dimensional magic. The living cat disappeared before his eyes, and two portraits of black cats of the same size appeared on the white paper. The difference was only one front and one side.

Even though Zhang Huai believed Jiang He unreservedly all the time, he felt inconceivable, and it took him a long time to say, "Since it's the same cat, why are there different sizes when it comes out?"

Jiang He replied, "I don't know either, maybe it's caused by the different blowing strength of the black cat."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaogu chuckled, "There are more than 40 cats blowing one mouthful at a time. I will wake you up before it finishes blowing."

Jiang He was ashamed, but fortunately Zhang Huai couldn't understand Xiao Gu's words, otherwise he would have lost his life.For some reason, sporadic spots of ink were stained on his cheeks. Seeing his sudden silence, Zhang Huai stretched out his hand to wipe his face.He seemed to have guessed what Xiaogu said that caused him to have such a reaction. After wiping it clean, he didn't take his hand back immediately, but patted it twice to express comfort.

"Here you are." A rough and honest voice suddenly sounded from behind. Jiang He felt so strange for a moment that he almost jumped up in fright.Looking back, he was both surprised and happy: "Xiong Xiong! You've finally hibernated!"

"What hibernation?" The big black man looked like a King Kong, thought for a few seconds, shook his head and said, "I'm taking care of the baby at home, and the yellow shirt asked me to come out and catch the cat for you, and I have to go back quickly."

What he handed to Jiang He was a hemp cloth bag. Jiang He was wondering how such a small bag could hold a cat. Eye.

Xiong Xiong yelled "Oh!" "Why did you follow me!" He disappeared from Jiang He in the blink of an eye.

Although Zhao Xiufeng said that he had no hope for Zhang Huai, he still followed his every move at all times. Since he appeared, his eyes followed him from time to time, and he naturally noticed the abnormal scene just now.

Jiang He shook his head and laughed, opened the bag, and a black figure unexpectedly rushed towards his face, his face hurt, and his body was held in the arms of the person next to him so as not to fall down, and the bag was also in front of him. When it was in a hurry, it fell to the ground, and black shadows came out of the bag one after another. After a while, the room was crowded with black cats of all sizes.

"Close the door!"

This careless Xiong Xiong!At least a reminder before you go!
