Chapter 44 [The hard-working scholar](1/2)

 Just seven words came out of the orange cat demon's mouth and passed clearly to Cheng Yu's ears.

Listening to his voice, he is neither male nor female.

And the speaking speed is moderate, and the pronunciation is clear and standard.

I don’t know how much better than Falcon Demon’s arrogant and outspoken “Shaying Su” is.

It’s a cat demon whose bones have been removed.

The other party called him a bird friend, but Cheng Yu still remained vigilant.

He slowly flew towards the orange cat demon and landed on the eaves of a house five feet away.

The little sparrow raised its wings, folded the wingtips together, and bowed slightly in return.

To be honest, this is a very difficult move for Sparrow, but he did it easily.

"I don't know the identity of my friend at noon, and I haven't met you to greet you. If there is any offense, please forgive me."

The cat demon once again held its paws and saluted.

The cultural level of these monsters is higher than the other, and their speech is as elegant as a scholar.

Out of caution, Cheng Yu did not summon the human spirit at will, but silently recited the general outline of Xiao Shui Xing Shu.

The spiritual consciousness spread out from the bird's body, and in the Bell and Drum Tower at the foot of the cat demon, there was an inkstone that had just been ground.

The "Yinzi Jue" drew a handful of ink from it, waved its wings slightly in the air, and instantly a large character composed of four ink droplets was suspended in the sky above the Bell and Drum Tower.

It flows endlessly under the moonlight, glowing with a mysterious black luster.

"You..."

"But..."

"Know..."

"Word"

The cat demon was shocked when he saw the four characters "Can you read" suspended in the air made of ink?

‘This... royal thing?’

‘The Great Demon in Transformation!’

‘The true nature of casting spells is evident, and there is not even a trace of evil spirit leaking out from his movements… What kind of cultivation level does this person have?’

Not good!

This sparrow may be just a clone of him, but it was reckless to call him a sparrow friend just now.

The big demon must have had a grudge against this, so he deliberately showed off his skills to scare it.

You have to be more careful, otherwise the consequences of being careless will be disastrous...

While the orange cat demon was thinking crazily, he landed his forelimbs on the ground, took two steps back with caution, stood up again, cupped his fists and arched his paws, and said:

"I know a little bit about the words, but I didn't know that my seniors are here. Please forgive me."

Cheng Yu felt relieved when he heard that the cat demon's title had been changed from bird friend to senior.

"Boom!"

A burst of thunder came from the distance again as promised.

At this time, Cheng Yu was already accustomed to strange things, unlike when he first traveled through time, he was still a little wary when he heard the thunder.

This thunder would create a wave of presence every time I cast water magic, but it never came down.

It must be that the water vapor movement in the air was affected when the water movement was performed, forming cumulonimbus clouds.

But when the cat demon heard the thunder from the ground, suddenly the whole cat became ill.

It hurriedly looked up at the sky, and dark clouds surged out of thin air, completely covering the full moon on which it relied for cultivation.

The nerves that had been getting tighter and tighter since just now finally snapped with a "bang".

The cat demon let out a shrill scream of "meow", which made her cry out in pain.

This little sparrow is not just in disguise, but has probably become a demon, planning to kill him.

The cat demon immediately spread its four claws and rushed into the bell tower. With a "squeak" sound, it actually got into the big bronze bell and shouted:

"Senior, have mercy on me! I don't dare to be presumptuous anymore."

When Cheng Yu saw it being frightened like this, he was also unprepared.

We were having a good conversation at first, but suddenly we were shocked and turned into this.

Okay.

"Whoosh..."

A string of ink raised an arc and flew towards the bell and drum tower, and landed steadily in the inkstone again.

Returning things to their original owners, I am not a seasoned person.

Cheng Yu put away his water skills, spread his wings and flew to the top of the big clock, lowered his head and pecked the clock face twice with his mouth.

"Dang...dang..."

Two clear and gentle bells sounded, and a cat's head poked out of the base of the big clock.

Cheng Yu looked down from a high position, and in a daze, he inexplicably thought of a lazy cat named Garfield.

"Senior is about to calm down the wrath of thunder...ah? It's already gone..."

The cat demon looked at the little sparrow above its head, then turned to look at the sky outside.

The dark clouds that were all over the sky just now are coming and leaving at any time.

The bright moonlight once again shines on the rooftops of the city.

Only then did the cat demon feel relieved.

Cheng Yu looked at the cowardly cat at this time, and then recalled its arrogant attitude during the day. It was like two different cats.

At this moment, the cat demon's limbs are propped up on the inner wall of the big clock, looking like the character "wood".

Seeing the corners of the little sparrow's mouth raised high up, it also let out a sigh of relief.

He retracted his limbs and landed gently on the ground, thanking Cheng Yu again. The little sparrow just nodded to him.

The cat demon secretly rejoiced that he had saved another life.

"Who is ringing the bell here late at night?"

A slightly older voice sounded from the other side of the Bell and Drum Tower.

Cheng Yu is small in stature, so he is very hidden when standing in the shadow of the clock top, so there is no need to hide.

When the cat demon heard the human voice, it clasped its fists in a bow and hurriedly moved to all fours on the ground, meowing like an ordinary cat.

"I knew right away that it was you, the old cat, who was causing trouble here again. There were a few more thunders just now, so you, the old cat, don't know how to be afraid?

It's a cool autumn night, come and have a rest with me. You're in for a treat today, my son brought back half a pack of chicken livers, which I just mixed for you."

An old man with gray beard and hair held on to the wooden railing with some peeling paint and smiled at the orange cat not far away.

"Meow~"

The cat demon meowed, stretched out its limbs, and walked towards the old man happily.

When the old man turned around and went downstairs, he immediately turned around and raised his paws to bow to Cheng Yu again, saying very softly:

"Senior, forgive me, and I, the junior, will retire first."

Then he spread his limbs and ran downstairs with the old man.

Cheng Yu spread his wings and flew to the eaves to look down. On the first floor at his feet, there was an inconspicuous small window with light on, which looked particularly bright in the surrounding darkness.

Through the broken window, I saw an old man and a young child sitting at a low table, with an oil lamp on the table trying to shine brightly.

The cat demon was standing by the table, his shoulder height was actually two inches higher than the tabletop, and he was concentrating on eating a small half package of chicken liver.

The young man in the room looked at the cat demon with a smile, picked up a book next to the inkstone, put it in front of the oil lamp, and concentrated on reading.

Cheng Yu only felt that the young man reading in the room looked familiar.

Only later did I remember that it was the young teacher who was in the Confucian Temple Book School in the afternoon.

At that time, I judged that this person was poor based on his face and clothes, but I didn't expect that he and his father actually lived in the Bell and Drum Tower.

After the cat demon finished eating the chicken liver, he wiped his face with his paws, meowed cutely twice, stretched, and ran out of the house.

"Hey? Why did you wipe your mouth and run away after eating?"

The old man chased after him, laughing and cursing.

"Father, stop chasing me. This big cat is used to being wild. Let it go. It's getting late. You should rest early. The bell will ring tomorrow morning."

"Okay, you should go to bed early and don't watch too late."
