Chapter 241: A White "Kitten"
Su Chenyin was startled and looked down quickly.
It turned out to be a little white kitten struggling desperately, its little body almost deformed by her feet.
The kitten's big round eyes were as big as copper bells. It stared at Su Chenyin with anger on its face and roared, "Human! Human! You're still looking? Get your feet away from me!"
Su Chenyin quickly retracted her foot and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see you here."
The kitten rubbed its flattened belly, stood up angrily, and shook off the dust on its body.
Then, it rolled its eyes at Su Chenyin, as if it didn't appreciate Su Chenyin's apology.
"Really, I almost got sent away."
The kitten muttered a few words in dissatisfaction and patted its chest with its paw, as if to make sure that it was still alive.
It glanced at Su Chenyin angrily, then limped to the side, curled up in a corner, and began to heal its wounds silently.
Su Chenyin looked at the angry little cat and couldn't help feeling a little funny and a little guilty.
She walked over gently, squatted down, and carefully reached out her hand to touch it.
The kitten widened its eyes vigilantly and shrank back, as if to say, "Woman, don't come over here."
"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I didn't notice you just now. This is a healing pill. It should help you."
As Su Chenyin spoke, he took out a small bottle from the space, poured out a healing pill and handed it to the kitten.
When the kitten smelled the fragrance of the elixir, its eyes lit up instantly.
But its tail wagged gently, as if it was hesitating whether to accept the apology.
Su Chenyin smiled slightly, placed the pill gently in front of the kitten, and then took a few steps back to show his sincerity.
The kitten hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't resist the tempting medicinal fragrance of the pill.
It carefully stretched out its little pink tongue, licked the pill, and then swallowed it in one gulp.
In a moment, the kitten's eyes were filled with surprise. Its injuries improved rapidly and its stomachache went away.
It looked up at Su Chenyin, with less hostility and more gratitude in its eyes.
"Hmph, you still have some conscience." The kitten glanced at Su Chenyin, and the anger in his tone lessened a little.
Su Chenyin couldn't help but chuckle when she saw the kitten's attitude soften.
She walked over, squatted down, and gently touched the kitten's head.
This time the kitten didn't dodge. Instead, it closed its eyes and looked like it was enjoying it.
Su Chenyin smiled and gently stroked its fur, and the kitten made a satisfied "purr" sound.
"Since you're okay, I'm relieved. I still have to go find my friends, so I'll leave first."
After saying this, Su Chenyin stood up and prepared to leave the cave.
When the kitten heard Su Chenyin's words, its eyes widened, as if it didn't expect her to leave so soon.
It jumped up quickly, hugged Su Chenyin's calf, and said coquettishly:
"Don't go. I'm so bored here alone. Can you stay with me for a while?"
Su Chenyin looked at the kitten's big watery eyes, and her heart couldn't help but soften, but she still shook her head firmly.
"I really need to find someone else, so I can't accompany you."
As Su Chenyin spoke, she tried to gently pull the kitten away, but it held on tightly, looking like it didn't want to let go.
The kitten stared at Su Chenyin with its big watery eyes, looking so pitiful.
"Just stay with me for a while. I won't keep you too long."
Seeing how cute the kitten was, Su Chenyin was a little shaken, but thinking that Ajue and her cousin were still waiting for her, she finally shook her head.
"Sorry, I really have to go." She bent down slightly and patted the kitten's head gently.
The kitten saw Su Chenyin's determination and couldn't help but lower its head like a deflated ball. It glanced outside the cave with loneliness in its eyes.
It accidentally fell into this cave and found itself trapped in it.
It tried to leave the cave countless times, but it simply couldn't leave the cave.
Now, after so many years, a human finally entered this cave, and now he has to leave.
"Okay then, go away." The kitten loosened its little paws that were hugging Su Chenyin's calf, with a hint of loss in its tone.
It jumped lightly to the side, then turned around and walked step by step into the cave with its little paws, leaving Su Chenyin with only a lonely back.
Su Chenyin looked at the kitten's lonely back and couldn't help feeling a little bit of pity in her heart.
She hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Wait a minute, if you want, you can come with me."
When the kitten heard Su Chenyin's words, it immediately stopped and its eyes lit up instantly.
But when it thought that it could not leave the cave at all, its eyes soon became dull again, as if it had lost all its luster.
Want to leave, unless...
"What's wrong? Don't you want to?" Su Chenyin asked puzzledly when she saw that the kitten didn't answer.
The little cat looked back at her, his tone full of helplessness and sadness: "It's not that I don't want to, I just... can't leave this cave."
Su Chenyin frowned. She felt that the kitten seemed to be hiding something.
She walked over to the kitten and gently touched its head: "It's okay, tell me, why can't you leave here? Maybe I can help you."
A hint of surprise flashed in the kitten's eyes. It raised its head and looked at Su Chenyin's serious expression, and a hope surged in its heart.
Then it hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke slowly: "Actually, I jumped into this cave by accident."
"Then I accidentally triggered an ancient restriction in this cave, which prevented me from leaving the cave."
"I will never be able to leave here unless the ban is lifted."
After Su Chenyin heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said, "So that's why I feel that the atmosphere of this cave is a little different."
"Tell me, where is that restriction? I'll see if I can help you remove it."
A trace of gratitude flashed in the kitten's eyes. It nodded and took Su Chenyin through a winding path to the depths of the cave.
It stopped in front of a huge rock and pointed at the densely packed runes on the rock: "Right here, the restriction is on this rock."
Su Chenyin carefully observed the runes on the rock and found that the runes were ancient and mysterious, emitting a faint light.
"Hmm? Why do these runes look so familiar?"
Su Chenyin thought about it and suddenly remembered, isn’t this in the book “Complete Collection of Ancient Formations” that Ajue gave her before?
She observed carefully for a while and finally figured out what the restriction was that trapped the kitten. It turned out to be an ancient beast trap.
The Beast Trapping Formation, as the name suggests, is an ancient formation specifically used to imprison spiritual beasts.
