Chapter 1376: Mountains and Rivers Are Exhausted, Willows Are Dark and Flowers Are Bright

Sitting in the Jinbei van, Zhang Zian drove towards the pet shop.

The speed of the car is very slow, even too slow, and other vehicles often honk their horns behind the car in disgust, urging him to go fast and don't block the road.

He calmly ignored the horns—you overtake if you have the ability, anyway, I drive so slowly, you come to bite me?

Especially when turning a corner, he brought the principle of "one stop, two checks and three passes" to the extreme.

He was so careful because the car had changed tires, but still couldn't trust it.

It was also because he was driving very slowly that when he approached the pet store, he noticed a cardboard box on the side of the road.

It's not surprising that there are cardboard boxes on the side of the road.

But the problem is - he also saw an old woman riding a small broken tricycle, riding very slowly, with a Pomeranian in the box, and some empty bottles and waste cardboard boxes piled up, obviously A very common scavenger of the elderly, the grandma also sees the cardboard box, and she sees it without any reason not to pick it up.

Sure enough, she stopped the tricycle, patted Bomei on the head, as if making him wait obediently, don't move or bark, and tremblingly went to pick up the cardboard box.

So far, everything is logical.

However, when she bent down to pick up the cardboard box, she seemed surprised, picked it up and put it down again, stared at it in difficulty, and looked around as if asking for help.

Zhang Zian could turn a blind eye to this, but now it was lunch time, there were no pedestrians on the road, and the old lady seemed to need help, so he stepped on the brakes.

Jinbei Bread, which had been moving at a slow speed, was parked on the side of the road, very close to the old woman's tricycle.

Zhang Zian got out of the car, walked over and asked, "Old man, are you feeling well?"

The old lady turned her head slowly. There were a few patches on her clothes, but they were neither dirty nor smelly.

Zhang Zian seemed to have seen her somewhere, maybe when he passed by.

Bomei in the tricycle screamed twice nervously, as if he thought he was a bad person.

"Ah... I'm fine, I'm fine." The old woman stroked her chest gently,

Pointing to the cardboard box on the ground, "I was taken aback. I was about to pick up the cardboard box, but it suddenly moved. There seemed to be something alive inside..."

Living thing?

Zhang Zian lowered his head and stared at the cardboard box.

This is obviously a courier box, with a size of about 30cmX30cmX60cm. On the upward side, there is still a courier seal that has not been torn clean. As for the sender, recipient and contents, it is already blurred.

As he watched, the cardboard box moved again, and he was startled slightly, and took a half step back.

Pomeranian barked even more, but he was chained to the car and could do nothing but bark.

"Young man, be careful..." the grandmother said worriedly: "I have been picking up garbage for more than ten years, and many people throw everything away. I heard that there are people who raise snakes and poisonous spiders, and then just throw them away if they don't want to raise them. That poisonous spider is very big, you have to be careful..."

She was worried for Zhang Zian, what would she do if she opened the cardboard box and was suddenly bitten by a poisonous snake and spider?

Zhang Zian also had the same concerns.

it's like...

what is it like...

There is a term buried deep in his mind, but he can't remember it for a while, to the effect that...you never know what is inside this box until you open it.

"Always open it to see, if it is really something dangerous, what if it hurts someone else?" he said.

"That's what I said...but be careful!" the old woman exhorted.

She tremblingly walked back to the side of the tricycle, pulled out a pair of dirty cloth gloves, and handed them to him embarrassedly, "Why don't you... put on the gloves? It can protect you a little bit..."

Zhang Zian accepted her kindness, put on his gloves, and said, "Stay away a bit, I'm afraid I'll bump into you when I dodge."

"it is good."

The old grandma took a few steps back, sweating for him worriedly.

This cardboard box does not open from the top, but two boxes are buckled together up and down. If you want to see the contents inside, you must lift the top box.

Zhang Zian carefully lifted the upper box, but it didn't completely open it, only a narrow gap was exposed, so that if there was some kind of dangerous animal inside, there was still time to close it again.

Judging from the noises made by the animals inside, it's not too small, so it shouldn't come out of this narrow gap.

He glanced into the dark crevice in the midday sun.

The unknown hidden in the black box, it could be anything, but just one look and it's...

What is it?

He couldn't remember it, but he had already seen it, so there was no unknown.

Inside is a pair of shining eyes.

He recognized it right away, it was a cat's eyes, there was no mistake, if he, the son of a pet shop, could misidentify the cat's eyes, he would be able to eat keyboards live.

Those eyes, shining brightly in the dark box, shone with silver-gray light, but there was a bottomless fear in them, as well as a desire for light.

"Meow~"

It whines softly in the box, as if saying: Let me out.

Zhang Zian's mind suddenly seemed to be hit hard, the blood in his body rushed to the top of his head, and his whole body was in a state of stiffness, as if two turbulent waves collided in his mind.

"Young man, what's... what's inside?" The old lady was very worried. Although he told her to stay away, she saw that he was frozen, so she came over and patted him on the shoulder.

Only then did Zhang Zian come back to his senses, and quickly said, "It's not a dangerous animal, it's a cat."

With that said, he opened the box.

A black-and-white kitten crouched crouching in the corner of a cardboard box, squinting against the harsh sunlight.

"Ah! It turned out to be a kitten! It made me worry for a long time!"

The old lady couldn't laugh or cry, and sighed: "It's true that the older you are, the less courageous you are! It's useless..."

With that said, she turned and walked towards the tricycle, and slowly stepped onto the seat.

"This cat..." Zhang Zian turned around and said.

The old grandma turned her head and looked at Pomeranian in the car with affection, "I, I can hardly afford even a puppy. If you like that cat, you can take it home... The weather is getting worse and worse. It’s cold, if it stays here, it will definitely be bullied. I heard that some gangsters nearby like to abuse cats... If you really can’t keep it, there’s nothing you can do, just leave it, don’t cover the box, maybe Someone with good intentions will see it and take it home."

After finishing speaking, she pedaled three wheels and walked away slowly.

Bomei stopped barking, and kept staring back at him, with... that cat.
