Crying While Filling the Pit I Dug - Chapter 101

Hell! What to do?

She first tried to push it with all her strength, but she couldn’t budge it. Then she pushed again, but it remained immovable. Another attempt yielded the same result.

Sure enough, the task was not so easy.

How could the pit be filled so easily?

She felt discouraged and thought of asking the system Oppa if she could exchange points for some tools.

She put her claws on the stone and punched it as if she were angry.

Shockingly, the stone just rolled around like that.

Under the moonlight, Song Miaomiao looked at her paws in surprise. What was going on? Did they suddenly become magical?”

She glanced at the ground, where her shadow lay, and then at the large shadow next to her own, both stretching out claws.

Who was it?

Could a cat have two shadows when there was only one light source, like the moon? Could it be that she encountered a ghost?

Anxiously, she turned her head and let out a scream, “Ah! (Meow!)”

Help! There is a tiger!

She immediately spread her paws and ran, but the tiger grabbed her by the neck and picked her up. Then, the tiger let out a long roar, “(>^ω^<) Meow.”

(｀Д)!!

Song Miaomiao took a closer look. Could it be a giant cat? But there was clearly a “king” on his forehead, besides, how many times she had seen tigers on TV. She was sure, definitely and absolutely that this was a tiger.

(King m. The Chinese character with three horizontal lines connected by a central vertical line 王 (wang) meaning ‘king’ which you can see here, often appeared on the forehead of tigers. A black tiger with the character for ‘king’ on its forehead.)

The tiger opened his mouth and said, “Don’t be afraid! (Meow, meow!)”

Song Miaomiao could understand the tiger’s cat language and could communicate. Had cat language become the tiger’s second foreign language?

The tiger held two paws, put Song Miaomiao in his palm, and said, “Hello, my name is Shanmao. (means: Lynx, a wild cat) (Meow, meow, meow, meow.)”

Song Miaomiao’s jaw almost dropped in shock, “What shanmao, you are obviously a tiger, okay?”

The tiger asked again, “What’s your name?”

Song Miaomiao trembled and said, “My name is Tiger. (Meow, meow, meow, meow.)”

Wait, as a cat, her name was Tiger. The person opposite was a tiger, and it was called Shanmao, which didn’t seem so unacceptable.

The tiger said, “Hello, Tiger. Why are you here?”

Song Miaomiao looked at the huge size of the tiger. It was bigger than the boulder just now. She didn’t dare to say that she was there to dig for the elixir. What if the tiger robbed it? Her mission would fail.

Song Miaomiao came up with a reason, saying, “Uh… I’ve come out to look at the moon.”

The tiger said, “We actually thought of it at the same time. I also came out to look at the moon.”

Song Miaomiao: (╬￣o￣)=○

Forget it, it seems that this tiger had no intention of harming her, and it looked very friendly. It actually gave her a sense of familiarity. She would wait for the tiger to leave, then dig out the elixir.

Song Miaomiao asked politely, “Can you put me down now?”

She was still held in the palm of the tiger’s hand.

The tiger obediently put her on the ground and touched her head with his big paws, which were bigger than her head.

Song Miaomiao: “Did you push the rock for me just now?”

The tiger nodded and squatted like a cat, saying, “Yes.”

Song Miaomiao: “Thank you.”

The tiger asked, “Why were you pushing the stone?”

(⊙o⊙)…

Song Miaomiao came up with a reason, “Push and play.”

Tiger: “Do you like playing with rocks? I also liked playing with rocks when I was little.”

Miaomiao: “Yeah…”

The tiger looked up at the moon, “When I was young, my sister who was in the same litter with me also liked to play with stones. She was as young as you. And my master, she would play with us. She would also give us mice to eat. I also particularly like catching mice.”

It’s the mice again.

Could this tiger be raised as a cat?

Being able to speak cat language and eat mice were both essential qualities for a cat.

Song Miaomiao: “Did your master give you the name Shanmao?”

Tiger: “Yes. She picked me up from the mountain and took me home to raise me with my sister.”

Song Miaomiao: “What about your master?”

Tiger said sadly, “She has passed away.”

Song Miaomiao: “I’m sorry.”

Tiger: “It’s okay, every time I see the moon, I think of her. Do you have a master?”

Song Miaomiao thought of Han Chuan, saying, “I have, he treats me very well, I like him very much.”

Tiger: “Me too, I really hope to see her again.”

Song Miaomiao: “By the way, where is your sister?”

Tiger: “She passed away too.”

The tiger squatted and looked up at the sky, lost in sad memories, just waiting for the day to dawn.

But the tiger had no intention of leaving.

Song Miaomiao: “The sun has come out, and the moon has gone home.”

Song Miaomiao: “Brother Shanmao, can you go play in the forest for a while? I’ll stay here for a while.”

Tiger: “Why?”

Song Miaomiao hesitated, urgently looking for a reason for herself…

The tiger suddenly realized, “Oh, I see, you want to poop, right?”

Song Miaomiao: -_-||

“Yes.”

The tiger was very cooperative, as well-behaved as a real cat, saying “Okay, I’ll go over there to play for a while. I’ll help you keep watch.”
