Chapter 456: The Disappearing Lioncat

Snow Lion put down the arrogant Asera cat without bloodshed, ran back and squatted in front of Fina, shaking his head triumphantly, with a face of "wanting to kiss, hug and hold high".

The onlookers saw the cuteness of the snow lion, and they all admired it. They all wished that they could go to hug it and hold it high...

The victory was unusual, and Fina was speechless. It would rather die than do such a shameless thing, but the snow lion was helping it after all, so it stretched out a front paw and stroked the snow lion's forehead. , to show encouragement.

"Wow! I'm so happy! Your Majesty touches my house again! Your Majesty touches my house again!" Snow Lion's body softened like an electric shock, rolling on the ground with joy, his four short legs tossed about, softly begging Fina to touch it a few more times .

Fina scowled, "Get up quickly! Rolling all over the floor in public, how decent is it? Where is the dignity of my cat clan?"

"I obey the order." Snow Lion knew that he was getting carried away, so he quickly got up and squatted obediently behind Fina's side. This is the first time that Fina touches it on her own initiative. Under the excitement, it even forgot about the raw beef brisket, and was only thinking about how to continue to express itself in front of Fina, so as to get more favors...

The customers present finally came to their senses. They couldn't believe their eyes when they saw the arrogant snow lion and the Asela cat lying limply in the cage.

"Damn it! This white cat meowed a few times, and brought down such a fierce Asela cat?"

"Isn't it? How do you do it?"

"What's this? You forgot that the manager of this store can teach kittens to dance, so what's so difficult about getting an Asera cat?"

There are different opinions and no consensus.

"This white cat is so cute! I really want to hold it in my arms and ravage it!" Even a female man had a girlish heart, staring at the snow lion enviously.

Xue Shizi heard her, looked at her a few times, and turned his head in disdain, "Cut! I don't want you, I want a soft girl!"

Someone asked, "What breed is this white cat? Is it a Persian cat?"

Someone next to him replied with a half-knowledge: "This is a Linqing lion cat. I also have a white cat like this at home. I still have photos in my phone. Do you want to see it?"

Someone else laughed and said, "Your cat is absolutely different from this white cat. It is a real Linqing lion cat—at least it is very close to the real Linqing lion cat. And your cat,

Definitely a Persian cat skewer or regular big white cat. "

Hearing this man's stern words, Zhang Zian seemed to have a beautiful heart, so he couldn't help but follow his reputation.

The man who spoke was tall and strong, with a loud voice, about forty years old, dusty, wearing a gray-black cotton jacket, holding a bunch of car keys in his hand, although he was not as strong as Tim, he looked like Tim. He is a standard northern man. However, there is a cute white cartoon cat head pendant on his key chain, which makes his masculinity collapse a bit...

The person who spoke before was not convinced, and said: "You haven't even seen it, how do you know that my cat is different from this one?"

The latter replied confidently: "You don't need to look at it to know it. Let me ask you a question - is your cat's tail hair 15 centimeters long?"

He handed over the car keys to his left hand, and made a distance between his right thumb and index finger, "15 centimeters, so long. Is there any?"

"This... I haven't measured this carefully..." The former stared at the 15 cm length in amazement, speechless.

The latter smiled and said: "Historical records, the tail of the Linqing lion cat is called 'flame unicorn tail'. As the name suggests, the hair on this tail must be as vigorous as a flame, and it looks like the unicorn tail in ancient murals. 15 centimeters is already the minimum standard."

Everyone looked at the snow lion's tail. The hair was long and dense, and it was as fluffy as a raging fire.

The former has put away the mentality of comparison, and put the phone back into his pocket with a smirk, knowing that his cat is definitely not a purebred Linqing lion cat, and showing it out is just a joke.

The latter said: "The lion cat is a hybrid of the ancient Persian cat and the native Chinese cat. It is also said that the Angora cat is a hybrid of the native domestic cat. The appearance is very similar to these two cats, and they are often confused. Cats are easy to distinguish: first of all, lion cats and Persian cats have two layers of hair, one is the undercoat, and the other is the outer long hair, while the Angora cat has only one layer of long hair; The exaggerated big ears of the Angora cat; finally, the face of the lion cat is like a silver fox, with downward nostrils, instead of short and flat noses with upturned nostrils like the Persian cat. Knowing these three points, you can be in the right seat and correctly distinguish between lion cats, cats, and cats. Persian cats and Angora cats."

Zhang Zian's pet shop also sells pure white Persian cats. Compared with the two, everyone knew that this person was right, and they were all in admiration.

Not only these ordinary customers, but even Zhang Zian nodded in agreement with this person's words. He guessed in his heart the origin of this person, and knew so well about cats, could it be that he was also a colleague?

The man's tone changed, and he said regretfully: "The lion cat originated in the Song Dynasty, flourished in the Ming Dynasty, and declined in the Qing Dynasty. There were not many left in the modern Republic of China. In modern times, the purebred Linqing lion cat is suspected to be extinct. It's hard to find the real face..." He pointed to the snow lion, "this cat is probably the only remaining Linqing lion cat. Everyone, please look at the black line in the middle of its forehead, which looks like the legendary "send charcoal in the snow". Although white cats occasionally have dark spots on their foreheads, they are by no means as distinct and pure as this black cat. Even among Linqing lion cats, they are the best choice. Top-grade lion cat fur can reach the ground, and the existing lion cats The hair is not long enough, if it was placed in ancient times, this cat would definitely be sent to the palace as a tribute."

To others, these words were just taken for granted, but Zhang Zian knew that these words coincided with the origin of Snow Lion.

The snow lion is the cat in "Jin Ping Mei", and "Jin Ping Mei" borrows Song Yuming, pretending to refer to the Song Dynasty on the surface, but actually depicts the city life of the Ming Dynasty in detail, and many of the details have been used by historical researchers to reproduce the Ming Dynasty There are dozens of books related to the important references of scenery. Under the pen of the author Lanling Xiaoxiaosheng, the basic necessities of life in the Ming Dynasty are outlined in detail. Therefore, there is every reason to believe that although the Snow Lion is a fantasy elf, it should have a prototype to test. Its prototype is Shengji in the Ming Dynasty. The temporary Linqing lion cat.

It's a pity that since then, there have been frequent wars in China, and people have no awareness of protecting bloodlines. The purebred Linqing lion cats have become less and less, and finally disappeared in the long river of history like the Chinese lop-eared cats.
