Chapter 439: Chapter 439 Lucky Cat_1

Zhao’er turned the kitten over and discovered that it indeed had three patches of white fur on its belly, so she handed the kitten to the woman, "Here you go."

"Thank you."

The woman took Little Hei into her arms and signaled to the man beside her with her eyes; the two of them quickly walked away.

You noticed Zhao’er’s gaze fixed on the backs of the couple and promptly asked her, "Should we follow them to have a look?"

"Mhm."

Zhao’er nodded, and you immediately took her soft little hand and followed the couple quietly from a few dozen meters back.

The two had not gone far when they got into a Volkswagen Passat, which happened to be parked right behind your Ye Xiao’s Pickup Truck.

After they drove off, you got into your vehicle with Zhao’er and slowly followed them.

Following them for about ten minutes, they drove into a gated community, while your car was stopped by the security guard outside.

Although unable to enter, you could still track them continuously through the Sen Luo Eye.

The car entered the underground parking lot; the woman carefully held Little Hei as she got out, while the man, after exiting the car, opened the trunk and took out a cardboard box. The box was sealed, with only two "寿" characters printed on both the front and back.

The appearance of these two characters instantly made you feel that there was something eerie about this situation.

The couple entered the elevator and went up to the ninth floor, then used a key to open the door and went inside their home.

"Hey, make sure to lock the door properly!"

As soon as the woman entered the house, she seemed particularly excited.

The man nodded repeatedly, also appearing somewhat nervous.

After the man put down the cardboard box and hurriedly turned around to close the door, he jogged to the woman’s side and said, "What did the Taoist say again?"

"Oh, look at your memory! You can’t even remember a few simple steps; no wonder you never make any money!"

"Heh, I’m not well-educated, you know. Besides, I have you, don’t I?"

Saying this, the man reached out to embrace the woman.

"Get lost! I’m not in the mood for that!" The woman glared fiercely at the man, "Hurry up and take out the coffin!"

A coffin!?

As the man opened the cardboard box, your brow furrowed, and you found the couple’s actions even more peculiar.

What could be the purpose of combining a cat and a coffin?

Looking at the expressions on their faces, there was excitement mixed with nervousness, as if they were about to accomplish something extremely important in their lives.

The man took a small coffin out of the cardboard box and placed it on the dining table. He then opened the lid and asked the woman, "Shall we put the cat in now?"

"Nonsense, if not now, when are we waiting for?"

The woman placed the confused Little Hei into the coffin and, without waiting for Little Hei to react, snatched the coffin lid from the man’s hand and pressed it down herself!

"Meow!"

As soon as the coffin lid was in place, Little Hei, who had previously been quite well-behaved, immediately let out a heart-wrenching meow and began frantically scratching inside the coffin!

"Quick! Nail the lid down now!" the woman, pressing hard against the coffin lid, yelled at the stunned man.

"Oh, right!"

The man turned and ran to the cardboard box, where he took out a pack of coffin nails that had been stained with cinnabar.

He took the nails and hammered eight into the sides of the coffin. Just as he was about to hammer in a ninth nail, the woman snatched it from his hand and scolded him furiously, "Are you an idiot? Didn’t the Taoist priest say it? Eight nails are enough; one more, and we’ll bring disaster upon ourselves!"

"Yes, right, I was so nervous I just forgot," he said.

The man, still holding the hammer, gave a nervous laugh.

"I really don’t know what I saw in you at first?"

The woman cast an annoyed glance at the man.

Despite the lid being nailed down, Little Hei continued to claw desperately inside the coffin, causing it to wobble incessantly, with the spine-chilling sounds of the cat’s meows still emanating from within.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and place the coffin on the altar!"

The woman was far more composed than the man in this regard. He, on hearing the harrowing meows, was already covered in goosebumps.

The man hesitated to reach out, his voice trembling as he asked the woman beside him, "Is it okay? The cat’s screaming is giving me the creeps, and my legs feel weak."

"The Taoist priest has told us all the precautions, haven’t he? As long as we do what he says, there won’t be any problems! Besides, we’re not the first ones; your cousin put a grown female cat in the coffin, and that creature’s screeching was truly terrible—it meowed in that coffin for a full eight days! And afterwards? Everything went smoothly for him. He bought a villa, drives a Mercedes, and even built two houses for his parents back in the village. Look at you—after ten years with you, I can’t even afford a house, and now we even owe the landlord more than two months’ rent! In a couple of days, we’ll be thrown onto the streets to starve!"

The woman looked at the man with a disappointed expression and continued, "This is our only chance. If we seize this opportunity, we can live as richly as your cousin!"

"Okay!"

Clearly moved by her words, the man resolved to overcome his fear. With slightly trembling hands, he lifted the gently rocking coffin and placed it on the already-prepared altar.

As per the instructions of the Taoist priest, the woman had set up the altar in their storage room, because the area was relatively cool and dark, with no sunlight reaching it year round.

On the altar were placed items cats are fond of, such as canned fish, milk, and cat food; in addition, there were an incense burner and candlesticks—they’d set up an offering for the coffin and Little Hei.

"Meow! Meow!!!"

The cries of Little Hei became even more piercing from inside the coffin, and it continued scratching, making the whole altar tremble slightly.

Seeing this, a smile crossed the woman’s face as she said to the man, "You stay here and keep watch. I’m going to go out and place a bet, see if it works!"

"But... I’d be all alone in the house..."

"Are you scared? Big man like you, afraid of a cat?" The woman’s face fell. "When you swing a knife at someone, why aren’t you afraid?"

"Fighting is real, but this cat?"

Fighting and brawling were things that he had grown accustomed to from a young age. Even when faced with a dozen people alone, he wouldn’t bat an eyelid. But being left alone with this unnerving cat, he felt uneasy.

Finally, with a stern look from the woman, the man scratched his head and sighed, "Alright, alright, worst comes to worst, I’ll just close the door and turn the TV up loud so the neighbors won’t hear anything."

Upon hearing this, the woman nodded her head and left.

At that moment, Zhao’er slowly opened his eyes and couldn’t help but frown as he said, "Could it be that this is one of those peculiar Lucky Cats from Nanyang witchcraft?"
