Chapter 193 I Want to Be As High as the Moon
The story follows very naturally.
To some extent, there is a similarity between young children and cats that roam the mountains and forests all year round - the same innocence and fun.
So it is a natural progression for them to play together.
Even though Wu Nianyang is different from ordinary children, even though her young mind seems to have been distorted by external forces.
The black cat who had just come into contact did not notice this, because it had only seen a handful of humans.
One person and one cat often secretly hide in the haystacks along the back wall of the house late at night to communicate, making inexplicable and irrelevant remarks.
It didn’t take long for Wu Nianyang to discover that her magical stupid cat could not only speak human words, but also had more wonderful powers.
She stared at the branches hanging in the air, rising and falling with the black cat's thoughts, her eyes full of surprise and admiration.
“You are so awesome!”
The black cat snorted disdainfully, "Is this awesome? I know a lot more than this."
"Controlling a small branch is nothing, I can even levitate you."
Excitement appeared in Wu Nianyang's clear eyes, "Really?! Then can you let me try it!"
"I can fly! Then I can fly high !”
Wu Nianyang almost immediately showed his dissatisfaction with the simple floating.
She wants to fly.
The black cat was startled, "It's okay...but how high do you want to fly? As high as a tree?"
Wu Nianyang said without hesitation.
"Fly as high as the moon!"
"The moon is so high..." The black cat raised its head, its clear blue eyes reflected the clear light of the moon, "Such a high place... ”
"Aren't you afraid?"
"What's there to be afraid of!"
"The moon is very high, but it hangs alone in the sky. No one can accompany it. It speaks, and it can only hang forever.”
“This is clearly a punishment that will never end.”
It was Wu Nianyang’s turn to be stunned, but very quickly. Soon she strengthened her belief, "These problems you mentioned are not problems, as long as the moon is high enough!"
The black cat glanced at Wu Nianyang, "I can't make you as tall as the moon."
"Aren't you very powerful? Why can't you do it?"
The black cat hung down lightly. Eyes, "My strength is not strong enough. If I want to be as high as the moon, I need a lot of strength."
Wu Nianyang's expression was visibly lonely, and there was even something in her bright eyes. A flash of resentment flashed through.
She was complaining that the black cat couldn't turn her into the moon.
It's just that the emotion flashed so quickly that Black Cat didn't notice it at all.
Over a longer period of time, the relationship between the girl and the black cat became better and better, so good that the vigilant black cat could completely relax and lazily nestle in Wu Nianyang's arms.
The black cat has never established a close relationship with any human being, let alone trusting a person wholeheartedly like this.
After it gained strength, it not only gained wisdom, but also lived too long.
Decades of time are enough for it to see through a lot like a twilight and old person.
Human nature, in particular, is hypocritical and ugly.
Black Cat feels that Wu Nianyang is different.
It wags its tail lazily, maybe because she is just a child.
Children are quite pure beings in human society, and their emotions and sorrows are not concealed.
The black cat felt the warm embrace and suddenly felt that humans were better than ever before. Could this be because of its nature as a cat?
The human holding it suddenly spoke.
"Stupid Cat, why did you choose to appear in front of me?"
The black cat enjoyed Wu Nianyang's chin scratching service comfortably. After scratching it twice, Wu Nianyang took his hand away. The black cat opened his eyes dissatisfied.
"What's that?"
Wu Nianyang's expressionless face showed rare tension, but the black cat was in her arms and she couldn't notice it.
"I mean... there are so many people in the village, even children, why did you choose to talk to me?"
"And according to what you said, you never talked to anyone after you got the power. We've been together before, why did you choose me?" The black cat slowly emerged from Wu Nianyang's arms and glanced at her lazily.
“Have you forgotten how miserable you were that day?”
“Even in Good Village, there were not many people who were beaten like that by their biological father. "Black Cat looked at Wu Nianyang calmly, "And you won't cry or make trouble."
"I like humans who don't make noise."
The expression on Wu Nianyang's face froze for a moment.
"So you came out to see me because I was beaten badly...Are you pitying me?"
The black cat looked at Wu Nianyang with clear blue eyes.
“Can’t I pity you?”
Wu Nianyang regained his smile, "Yes, of course."
"According to common sense, I am indeed quite miserable, and it is understandable that you pity me."
Black Cat looked at Wu Nianyang's expression , tilted his head, "Are you unhappy? I just answered truthfully, and I didn't mean to make you unhappy."
Wu Nianyang's hand hanging by his side grasped the grass tightly, "I'm not laughing. How can he be unhappy?"
The black cat looked at it for a while, and sighed like a human being.
"You're just unhappy."
It moved closer to Wu Nianyang, its shiny black fur carrying an astonishing beauty.
"No matter what I said to make you unhappy, I apologize for it."
Wu Nianyang did not express her position. She reached out and took the black cat into her arms, "Don't say I'm unhappy. "That's the next topic."
The black cat said softly and nestled into her arms again.
It didn't realize that it had unconsciously begun to be obedient to the human being it had chosen and liked.
The girl’s hand on the black cat’s chin was scratching it regularly, which made the black cat squint its eyes in comfort.
"Stupid Cat, why don't you tell me the story of how you gained power."
The black cat opened his eyes, "Do you want to hear this?"
"Want to hear."
After receiving the girl's affirmative answer, the black cat did not hesitate to tell the truth about its unexpected mysterious power.
The girl counted on her fingers, "It's been eight or ninety years, haven't you encountered the mysterious power again when you go to the back mountain?"
The black cat shook his head, "You Do you want me to meet you again?"
Wu Nianyang curled his lips and smiled, "I hope you will become stronger, Maomao."
"I think I'm fine as I am now."
Wu Nianyang raised his head and glanced at the moon in the sky, "Maomao, just say yes, after all, it is your power."
"It's not mine."
The black cat didn't listen. Judging from the surge of emotions under Wu Nianyang's calm tone, to be precise, it found almost no clue that anything was wrong with Wu Nianyang.
Otherwise, it would not have been so unexpected about what happened next.
Every night thereafter, tranquility continued to flow slowly through the black cat, and it thought the same was true for the girl.
Little did he know that during the day when it was not around, the girl had been doing the same thing.
The gray-bearded village chief shook his head, "Why are you here again? There is no child in the village who likes reading as much as you do."
"And didn't your brother leave a lot of books? "Why do you have to come to me every day?"
The girl struggled to hold the table as high as her body, only revealing a pair of round eyes, black and white.
“The book I want to read is not in my brother’s room.”
The village chief looked at the firmness in the girl's eyes and waved his hand, "Go in and stay only for a while, otherwise your father will come and beat you if he sees you. I won't interfere."
Wu Nianyang finally got what he wanted. The book she had been thinking about.
"Heaven and Earth Treasures Appreciating Spirits and Monsters"
Cats are indeed spirits. If you want to deal with them, you should read this book!
She turned over the creases left last time with satisfaction and continued reading.
