Chapter 160 Will a cat grow up if buried in the soil?
"You came back at the right time." Li Mu looked at Xiao Shuai helplessly.
The kitten was almost persuaded to learn to read and count.
Unfortunately, the literacy class was forcibly ended by the golden eagle before it even started.
"You're back just in time!"
When Xiao Shuai heard Li Mu say this, he suddenly became proud, thinking that Li Mu was praising him, and said happily, "I didn't play at all along the way. I flew straight back."
"."
Li Mu shook his head.
No wonder Brother Nan called it Silly Eagle. It was just a wrong name, not a wrong nickname.
Since he was interrupted anyway, Li Mu didn't bother about it anymore and would just find another chance to trick the kitten.
So he stood up, stretched, and asked Xiao Shuai, "How is the shrike?"
“It tastes just like any other bird.”
"."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Shuai combed his feathers twice.
"Where did you find it?"
"On that low hill over there"
Xiao Shuai recounted the process of tracking the shrike, "That's why I ate it. I also ate the small birds hanging from the trees. You don't have to prepare meat for me tonight."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Li Mu looked up at the clouds in the sky, then turned around and sat down on another recliner next to Brother Nan.
"What's going on? Did the shrike not mend its ways as it said, and instead kill birds for fun again?" Brother Nan turned his head and stared at Li Mu.
"Ah."
"What did Xiaoshuai do to it?"
"have eaten."
"Hey, I guessed that!"
Brother Nan looked exactly as I expected. "Just like those people who were caught for committing crimes, they cried in front of the camera, regretting everything and feeling extremely upset. In fact, they regretted why they didn't do things more carefully in the first place, and they were upset because they were so unlucky and why I was the only one to be caught."
"Yes, it's hard to change one's nature." Li Mu nodded. He gave the shrike a chance because he sincerely hoped that it could correct itself.
"That Crabby Burger is so abominable! He lied to Master Yogurt!"
The kitten in Brother Nan's arms was immediately indignant when he heard this. "Next time I see it, Master Yogurt will bite it to death!"
"Why is Yogurt suddenly so fierce? What are you talking about?" Brother Nan looked down at the kitten in his arms and tapped her forehead twice.
"Ms. Yogurt said that the shrike deceived her. She will not let it go if she sees it again next time." Li Mu first said to Brother Nan, then looked at the kitten, "Ms. Yogurt will not see it anymore."
"Can't see you anymore?"
"It has been eaten by Xiao Shuai."
"Yes."
Li Mu grinned.
"Master Yogurt, look! The hot plums are sprouting!"
A group of tiger cubs were looking around at the branches of wintersweet. The elder tiger cub turned his head and called "kitten".
"Well!"
Upon hearing this, the cat jumped off the recliner and ran over. It had a slender body and long limbs. Although it was small, it ran as powerfully as a calf and seemed to have endless energy.
"Nimu! There are really new sprouts!" The cat looked at it, sniffed it, and turned to share it with his own Nimu.
"Really? Let me see." Li Mu stood up and walked to the branch and squatted down.
There were already four or five buds on the wintersweet branch that Brother Nan broke off, and now there was one more. The original buds also expanded and became bigger than before.
It seems that the branches under the soil have grown roots and can absorb nutrients from the soil.
It is worthy of being the soil from a spiritual field. At this rate, we will be able to see plum blossoms blooming in the courtyard next winter.
I hope that the yard will still be the same as it is now, with a group of animals, Yogurt and Brother Nan, to accompany him in appreciating the plum blossoms and chatting.
My face suddenly felt cool and frosted like dirt.
Li Mu came back to his senses, lowered his head, and met a pair of big amber eyes.
The little cat stood up, one paw on his thigh, and the other paw stretched out, gently pressing his face, "Nimu, what are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking that when the wintersweet tree grows up next year, you guys will accompany me to see the plum blossoms."
"Will the hot plums bloom next year?" "Yes."
"Is it as big as the spicy plums in the mountains?"
“It shouldn’t be that big.”
"Well."
The kitten retracted its claws, turned around and stared at the land under the wintersweet branch. After thinking for a while, it turned its head and looked at Li Mu, "If I bury Mr. Yogurt in there, will Mr. Yogurt grow big?"
".Mr. Yogurt is now quite big."
"Will it grow if buried in the soil?"
"Probably not."
"why?"
"Because Mr. Yogurt is a cat and Wintersweet is a tree. Trees need to be buried in the soil to grow, but cats don't."
"why?"
"I'm afraid Master Yogurt wouldn't understand even if I told him."
"How do you know that Master Yogurt doesn't understand if you don't tell me?"
"."
Li Mu suddenly felt a headache and wanted to pretend that she didn't hear anything, but the kitten was very curious and very patient. She would just tilt her head and look at you. When she saw that you didn't say anything, she would keep repeating the question.
Suddenly, Li Mu had an idea.
He's not the only one in this courtyard.
So, Li Mu turned around and looked at Brother Nan who was curled up on the recliner.
"Brother Nan."
"What to do?"
"If I bury a cat in the soil, can it grow like a tree? If not, please explain why not?"
"You are a fool!"
After making this comment, Brother Nan turned his gaze back to the phone screen, changed his posture and continued lying down.
"emm"
Li Mu turned his head and looked at the kitten.
"What did Blue say?"
"Brother Nan said that if you want to know the answer to this question, you have to find it yourself, and he also pointed out a clear way for Master Yogurt."
"Bright road~"
"Yes, Brother Nan said that Master Yogurt should learn to recognize words from me. Once you recognize words, you can read. Most of the knowledge in the world can be found in books."
"."
The cat looked at Li Mu blankly.
It was as if she was wondering if it was true that as long as she could learn to read, she would gain knowledge on how to grow. It was also as if she was wondering why the sentence she heard Brother Lan say was so short when it came out of Ni Mu's mouth.
After thinking for a while without figuring it out, the kitten shook its head a few times, lay on the ground, stretched, and walked away in small steps.
She didn't even look at the wax plum branch, as if it wasn't her who asked the question just now.
Li Mu felt a little regretful.
The trick didn't work.
Touching the cubs at his feet, Li Mu suddenly caught a glimpse of the scratches made on the courtyard wall when he measured their height last time.
"Come, let's measure everyone's height again."
"Measure your height!"
"Measure mine!"
"See how taller I have become?!"
The cubs suddenly became excited and all ran to the wall.
Li Mu picked up a small stone and walked over, "Who will go first?"
"Mr. Yogurt, come first!"
The cubs said in unison, without hesitation.
The kitten slowly walked over to the scratch he had made last time, and instantly stood up straight, holding his head high and chest out, as if he wanted to stretch his body out.
