GRMFBS CH170

Kitty Wan Yan rushed over at top speed, and the weasels, big and small, scattered in terror.

Kitty Wan Yan didn’t stop either, continuing to chase after the biggest one until they disappeared from sight.

“Was… was that a cat just now?” Mi Man asked.

Chu Chengcheng swallowed hard: “Looked like a white cat, and a bit familiar too.”

Cheng Yichu: “Pinch me, am I dreaming? Did I really hear a weasel speak just now?”

Bao Qingshan: “Holy crap, is that the Wishing Cat? Is our school’s Wishing Cat really this fierce?”

He always thought it was just an ordinary cat!

His inspiration was working intermittently again.

Zhan Yan was watching the live broadcast in the gossip threads.

[Ghost King Wan Yan caught up with the weasel spirit Huang Ershisi Lang and subjected him to a continuous combo of cat claw strikes.]

[The weasel spirit Huang Ershisi Lang was slapped dizzy, yelling, “Why are you only chasing me!”]

[Ghost King Wan Yan threatened the weasel spirit Huang Ershisi Lang to take his kin and leave here, and to never cause trouble for his chef ever again.]

Ah… seeing Kitty Wan Yan protect his chef like this, Zhan Yan was a bit touched.

He should think of a way to make something delicious for Kitty Wan Yan.

The veterinary station was still in chaos.

Chu Chengcheng and Cheng Yichu were both rebuilding their worldviews, while Mi Man rubbed his hands together and asked them about the Wishing Cat.

He wanted to adopt it! If he adopted it, he would never have to fear the weasels’ revenge again!

Chu Chengcheng: “What… what should we do now?”

Cheng Yichu: “Should… should we call the police?”

Bao Qingshan held down his hand: “What do you want to tell the police? Tell them you heard a weasel speak?”

Chu Chengcheng: “…Then I’d become the psycho.”

Mi Man: “Don’t call the police! Aren’t you afraid of their revenge? They could chase me from Yimeng City all the way here; do you think they won’t hold a grudge against you?”

Cheng Yichu: “Then… what do we do now? Just wait here?”

Mi Man: “Let’s inspect the veterinary station again first. Don’t let any weasels hide inside. Check the doors, windows, pipes, and crevices too; don’t let them get in and bite the birds and dogs.”

The few university students couldn’t help but feel a profound respect for his professionalism.

After checking everything, Mi Man pounded his waist: “Very good, I’ll stay here tonight—do you guys want to stay here too? The station should be safer than where you live.”

…That was true, they had just reinforced it.

The veterinary station only had one duty bed and couldn’t fit four young university students, so Mi Man could only watch helplessly as they left.

After returning to the rented house, Chu Chengcheng and Cheng Yichu couldn’t sleep. They pulled Zhan Yan and Bao Qingshan to chat about the weasel asking for an enfeoffment, searching on their phones while discussing. They found a series of stories like “Accidentally Encountering a Weasel Asking for Enfeoffment and Saying the Wrong Thing,” “Dozens of Chickens in a Farmhouse Sucked Dry of Blood Overnight,” “Going Crazy After Being Possessed by a Weasel,” “Getting Rich by Forming a Fateful Connection with Immortal Master Huang,” “Worshipping the Family-Protecting Immortal,” and so on.

Who knows if they were true or fake, but reading them either scared people or made them a little bit envious.

Zhan Yan was incredibly sleepy; he was already past his biological clock for sleeping, and he had been helping Deep Shadow investigate Infinite these past two days. As they chatted, he started nodding off.

Cheng Yichu: “Don’t you guys think… Yan, you’re too carefree. Aren’t you scared?”

The rest of them had just watched the spectacle, but Zhan Yan had even replied to that weasel in Spanish!

Bao Qingshan: “How about we go to sleep first. Blindly discussing it here is useless anyway.”

Chu Chengcheng: “Alright. We’re agreed then; this matter stays between the few of us, don’t go spouting nonsense to others.”

Zhan Yan nodded vigorously: “Uh-huh.”

Before going to sleep, Bao Qingshan shoved something into his hand.

Zhan Yan woke up a bit and saw it was a small paper packet: “What’s this?”

The item description arrived late:

[This is an Evil-Slaying Talisman, capable of warding off evil and driving away demons.]

Bao Qingshan: “Put this under your pillow and wear it these next few days, just in case those weasels want to cause trouble for you.”

“Thanks.” Zhan Yan stuffed it under his pillow and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the bed.

The next morning, his morning exercise biological clock woke him up on time. Zhan Yan got up, yawned, and after his morning exercise, became radiant with energy again.

Breakfast was rice porridge, Fuling pickled mustard tuber, and boiled eggs. It wasn’t that there was nothing else, but these three items weren’t bad to eat.

Zhan Yan slurped down two large bowls of rice porridge and saw a new message in the family group chat. His brother said he was coming to deliver things to him today and asked for the exact address.

Happy, so happy!

He could eat good food today!

Zhan Yan shared the address.

Zhan Yan: “Just drive to here. The roads inside are a bit confusing; send me a message when you arrive and I’ll bring you in.”

The veterinary station wasn’t busy now; he could just take some time off to go out and pick up his brother.

After Zhan Yan finished breakfast, the other three also got up groggily, each sporting a pair of dark circles under their eyes.

Zhan Yan was very surprised and quietly asked Old Bao, “Why didn’t you sleep well either?”

Those two classmates were rebuilding their worldviews, but what did Old Bao have to lose sleep over?

Bao Qingshan: “I sent a message to my great-grandmother last night.”

“I told her I actually never realized the school’s Wishing Cat was a powerful great demon all this time.”

Zhan Yan: “And then?”

Bao Qingshan: “I thought my great-grandmother wouldn’t be able to reply since she usually lives in the mountains with bad signal.”

“But she replied.”

Bao Qingshan clicked on his phone to let Zhan Yan listen to his great-grandmother’s voice message:

“Your thinking right now ain’t accurate either.”

“I figure, you could go cling to its thigh.”

Bao Qingshan: “Clinging to its thigh is nothing. I’m just wondering where my feelings were inaccurate?”

He had pondered over it all night.

Zhan Yan: …It is inaccurate. Kitty Wan Yan isn’t a great demon, he’s a Ghost King.

But he couldn’t say it.

Zhan Yan: “Didn’t you ask your great-grandmother?”

Bao Qingshan: “I did, she didn’t reply. Probably lost signal again.”

After finishing their meal, the four of them went to the veterinary station together. They arrived early, and as soon as they got there, they saw Mi Man squatting by the door trying to curry favor with the Wishing Cat.

Kitty Wan Yan sat on a stone pillar, his tail swishing lazily, completely ignoring the sausage Mi Man offered him.

The large parrot inside the veterinary station was also awake: “Squawk! Little kitty, meow meow~ come here, come here kitty, eat your food~”

Wan Yan couldn’t be bothered with the stupid bird and the stupid human. He was waiting for his chef. Although his purpose in coming here wasn’t to find his chef, since they bumped into each other, he naturally had to mooch a few meals! Besides, he even helped his chef chase away the weasels!

Kitty Wan Yan abandoned Mi Man and ran straight toward Zhan Yan, stopping three steps away from him, his tail resting reservedly on his front paws: “Meow woo mi.”

Yours Truly is ready to accept your grateful offerings.

Zhan Yan: “…Um, how about I make you something delicious after I get off work?”

He still needed to borrow a stove from someone.

Kitty Wan Yan’s eyes widened.

What is going to work? Is it more important than Yours Truly?

Zhan Yan squatted down and counted on his fingers for him, curling one finger for each sentence: “If I don’t go to work, I have no salary. If I have no salary, I have no money to buy ingredients. If I have no ingredients, there’s no way to make delicious food. If there’s no delicious food…” He curled his last two fingers and formed a “0” at Kitty Wan Yan, “Anyway, if I don’t go to work, there’s nothing left.”

Mi Man was still trying to offer his ham sausage: “I have some, I have some.”

Wan Yan turned his head away in disgust.

The other people at the veterinary station also arrived for work: “Yo, Old Mi, teasing a cat? Haven’t seen this cat before, really white and handsome. Neutered yet?”

Kitty Wan Yan: …

“Meow aoo woo.”

Remember you owe me a meal tonight.

Wan Yan leaped a few times, bounded over the wall, and left.

The others looked up and gazed into the distance: “Runs pretty smoothly too. Just wonder if it catches mice… Old Mi, why do you have such huge dark circles under your eyes?!”

Mi Man: “…Insomnia from a rat infestation last night.”

Not only could it catch rats, it could even catch giant weasels!

“Then you should keep a cat. You failed to coax this one, how about I go to my neighbor’s house and bring you a kitten?”

“No need, I’ve set my sights on this one.”

The large parrot in the veterinary station squawked to join the fun: “Little mouse~ climbs the lamp stand~ steals oil to eat~ can’t come down~ mouse mouse don’t you worry, bring a leopard cat to coax you.”

“Who taught it this, hahaha.”

The veterinary station wasn’t considered busy outside of the spring and autumn epidemic prevention periods.

The few university students who came to intern gathered to chat idly after finishing their work.

Chu Chengcheng was very worried: “Could our school’s Wishing Cat be coaxed away?”

Cheng Yichu: “This place is so far from our school. If the Wishing Cat stays here, will it ever go back?”

Chu Chengcheng: “Oh right, how did it even run all the way here from so far away?”

Bao Qingshan: “You two are worrying over nothing. He definitely can’t coax the Wishing Cat away.”

Chu Chengcheng: “Why?”

“What do you think the Wishing Cat stayed for?” Bao Qingshan patted Zhan Yan. “Yan, could you pass on a portion of your skills to me?”

His great-grandmother told him to cling to the cat’s thigh.

He could, and he had taught their dorm head Duan Hong before, but Kitty Wan Yan was no longer interested in eating cat food. Previously, Zhan Yan thought Kitty Wan Yan was just a little white cat with a tough stomach and didn’t dare feed him much. Later, upon knowing he was actually Ghost King Wan Yan, he stopped being restricted by ingredients and seasoned everything according to human tastes.

In the afternoon, Zhan Yan took time off and asked to borrow Mi Man’s stove. Mi Man enthusiastically bought all sorts of ingredients, intending to secretly learn the cat food recipe.

Zhan Yan didn’t hide it from him, but as Mi Man watched, his occupational disease flared up: “Cats can’t eat this much salt, right?”

Zhan Yan casually tossed a handful of chili peppers into the pot: “Cats can’t chase away weasel spirits either.”

Mi Man fell silent. He started earnestly stealing skills and taking notes, swallowing his saliva more and more frequently as he wrote. Finally, he couldn’t resist asking, “This… cat food, can I have a taste?”

Zhan Yan gestured for him to look at the windowsill.

Kitty Wan Yan was squatting on the windowsill, looking at him uncharitably.

Mi Man: …It’s over for me.

After a while, the food was ready.

Wan Yan squatted on the windowsill to eat, while Mi Man squatted in front of the windowsill to coax the cat.

Zhan Yan wiped his hands and opened his phone, which notified him of a new message.

Zhan Jinli: “I’m almost there.”

Zhan Yan: “Wait for me! Coming!”

Hehehe, his delicious food was arriving too!

Zhan Yan said goodbye and left.

Mi Man continued coaxing the cat.

Because he provided the ingredients and the stove, Kitty Wan Yan forgave him for coveting his food.

Mi Man: “Stay here, alright? I have many, many cat toys, and I can also… don’t go!”

Kitty Wan Yan finished his meal, turned his head, and left.

Approaching Science said something was wrong with this place, but after he arrived, besides finding a bunch of weasels, he found nothing else. Approaching Science wasn’t trying to fool him, was he?

He still remembered that Lin Yuan ignored Approaching Science when he replied to him on the forum!

Kitty Wan Yan took out the black iron fish pendant; its dull, dark body lay horizontally on the ground, its dull, dark eyes completely unmoving.

Bai Ze said it would gain spirituality after having its eyes dotted, but no matter how he looked at it, it was still just a stiff iron fish!

Lacking any clues, Kitty Wan Yan picked up the black iron fish pendant in his mouth and walked while deep in thought, accidentally following a familiar scent.

Zhan Yan reached the intersection.

His brother had just parked the car at the intersection.

Zhan Jinli opened the car door and pressed Xingxing, who wanted to squeeze out, back inside.

This little cat missed Zhan Yan incredibly, so he brought the cat over as well.

Zhan Jinli saw his brother running toward him while waving. Just as he was about to smile, he suddenly saw a familiar cat silhouette behind his brother, and his pupils shrank drastically.

Why was this psycho Wan Yan here?!

Zhan Jinli only felt that his brain had never spun so fast.

He remembered that this psycho Wan Yan liked to pretend to be a stray cat to scam food and drinks, even scammed chicken wings from his brother’s hands, and chased his brother all the way to school for cat food.

Don’t panic yet. Wan Yan wasn’t necessarily here to find him; he might have just chased his brother to his internship location for cat food again. After reincarnating, his aura was already concealed by his physical body, and his physical appearance was different from his ghost appearance. As long as he didn’t expose himself, Wan Yan would only think he was his brother’s older brother.

He just needed to pretend to be an ordinary person, believing Wan Yan was just an ordinary cat…

Wan Yan raised his head and saw the man his chef came to meet.

Quite tall, and quite good-looking. Uninterested, Wan Yan prepared to change directions and walk away.

At this moment, a bizarre light flashed across the eyes of the black iron fish.
