After the wooden door was opened, I walked straight in.
The courtyard is indeed not big, a bit like a small quadrangle, and the decorations inside also appear very old, and it seems that it was built during the Republic of China or earlier.
There was a faint light on in a corner room on the north-east side of the small courtyard.
Wang Po stared over there and whispered, "I heard it. My Huahua is over there."
"Well, let's go take a look!"
Then my grandmother walked towards the house.
The windows of the house were made of wood, with patterns of flowers and plants carved on them. Because it was summer and the nights were a bit stuffy, the windows of the house were propped up with logs.
“Meow meow…”
Before I even got close to the window, I heard a terrible cat cry.
Wang Po's face was cold and her eyes were gleaming with coldness. The ghost in her body was stimulated by the cat's cry and kept surging forward. She looked very angry.
"Master, let's rush in. I can feel that Huahua needs me!" Wang Po said to me.
I shook my head and whispered, "Don't worry yet. We don't know who took your kitten away yet! Anyway, no one has found us yet, so we want to go to the window and take a look."
Wang Po lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.
After a moment, she looked up and said, "Okay, Master, I'll listen to you."
"Um!"
I nodded and tiptoed towards the window of the room.
When I took a closer look at what was going on inside the room, I was stunned.
Even my heart suddenly skipped a beat and started beating wildly.
I saw a lot of iron cages placed in the room. In the cages next to each other, there were cats. Many of the cats had wounds on their bodies and kept crying in the cages. Their bodies were more or less stained with blood.
On one wall, there were densely packed pieces of fur.
Some of the fur had dried up, but the layer of flesh on top was still shiny and visible.
Some of the cat skin may have been shaved off not long ago, it looks very soft, and there is a lot of red blood dripping from the bottom.
I could smell the pungent smell of blood in the whole room.
In front of a round table, with her back to me, was a woman.
The woman was not very old, with white legs and black hair. She was wearing a white T-shirt and a light blue skirt. But both her thighs and her clothes were stained with blood.
On the table, the woman was injecting liquid from a syringe into the body of a kitten.
As the drug entered the kitten's body, the struggling cat slowly stopped moving. Needless to say, the drug must be something like anesthetic.
But this didn’t shock me!
What I found most incredible was that the girl with her back to me, after knocking the cat on the table unconscious, actually picked up a knife on the table and prepared to skin the cat.
I have seen that kind of knife in a slaughterhouse. It is a boning knife, which is used by butchers to slaughter livestock such as cattle, horses, cows and sheep.
But now the boning knife was used on that weak and skinny cat, which was too cruel.
Wang Po also saw the scene, and her soul trembled constantly.
"No no.....Don't! That's my flower, don't hurt it!!!"
Wang Po screamed, and her ghost turned into a ball of black gas.
Then he rushed into the house through the window.
The woman in the room with her back to me had also heard Wang Po's voice.
She held the boning knife tightly in her hand and yelled, "Who? Come out?"
I saw Wang Po rushing into the house, and I was afraid that she would hurt the woman. After all, Wang Po was a ghost, and if a ghost hurt someone, it would be punished by the underworld.
After all, I was here, and if I didn't stop it, my good deeds would be reduced. Besides, if Wang Po harmed that woman, I would be the biggest suspect if the police investigated.
Without thinking too much, I ran from the window to the door, opened it, and rushed in.
What I didn’t expect was that Wang Po did not hurt the woman, but then floated in the air, holding the kitten on the table in her arms.
Only then did I see clearly that the kitten had a broken leg. That must be the kitten named Huahua that Wang Po mentioned.
Because Wang Po's soul was not hidden, the woman had already discovered Wang Po hanging in the air.
But the woman didn't seem to be afraid of Wang Po.
She stood there, holding the knife in her hand, staring at Wang Po with anger in her eyes.
I found that the woman was not pretty, and there were scars all over her face. I even found that one of her eyes was blind.
Under the woman's slightly opened eyelids, her eyeballs looked so shriveled, like grapes that had been left for a long time.
I suddenly rushed into the house, which naturally attracted the woman's attention.
She looked at Wang Po, then at me, and asked coldly, "Who are you? Why are you in my house?"
Wang Po was sobbing while holding her flower and ignored the woman.
The kitten named Huahua fell softly in her arms, motionless.
I stared at the woman with cold eyes and shouted in a deep voice, "Ugly woman, you have done such a good thing! You actually caught all these... all these cats, and the ones on the wall!"
I raised my hand and pointed at the cat skins on the wall, and said angrily, "You killed all those cats. You are so hateful!"
But what I didn't expect was that the woman burst into laughter.
She stared at me coldly with her remaining eye, raised her head, and said provocatively: "Yes, I killed those cats. What can you do to me?"
"you... ... "
I was so angry that I couldn't speak for a while.
The woman seemed to have not seen me. She walked slowly towards a cage with a knife in her hand. When she got to the cage, she unscrewed the wire on the cage and grabbed a black kitten out of it!
Then, she picked up the kitten by its ears and walked towards the round table.
The black kitten kept struggling, trying to scratch the woman's arm with its claws. But the woman seemed to have prepared in advance, and when the cat's claws scratched her, she chopped it fiercely with the knife in her hand!
“Meow meow meow——”
The shrill cat cry suddenly became extremely loud!
One of the black cat's claws was actually chopped off by the woman with a boning knife and fell to the ground.
Maybe there are nerves on the claws, so when the cat fell to the ground, its claws moved a few times.
The cat suddenly became weak and was thrown heavily onto the round table by the woman.
In a large iron basin on the round table, seven or eight cats had been skinned and thrown into the basin.
I could clearly see flies flying around the edge of the iron basin.
Flying back and forth.
“Hah!”
For no apparent reason, my stomach started to churn. I bent over and started vomiting. I threw up all the food I had that night. Even so, I still felt sick.
"Stop! Stop killing cats. They are our friends. Don't hurt them!"
Wang Po held Huahua in her arms and said angrily.
But the woman disagreed with Wang Po's words.
She raised the corner of her mouth, stared at Wang Po, and said coldly: "I feel that this world is abnormal. It is indeed abnormal. If I am not mistaken, you are a ghost!"
I didn't expect that this woman knew about ghosts, and she didn't seem to be afraid of them.
Perhaps she did it on purpose for Wang Po and me to see, the cruel woman actually stabbed the black cat's neck with the boning knife.
The black cat no longer had the strength to struggle. It let out a muffled cry and its throat was cut.
The black cat trembled a few times and then died.
The woman stared at the cat and continued to say defiantly: "I originally wanted to inject it with some medicine and let it die without knowing it, but you actually dared to break into my house. I can't tolerate this... I hate humans and cats, so I decided to kill cats in the future. I will cut off the cats' limbs first and then end their lives."
The woman stared at me sideways, with a cold look in her eyes. But what I couldn't understand was that she said she hated humans and cats. Why? Judging from her age, she was only about 18 or 19 years old. At this age, she should be in school, right? !
But here she stayed, killing those cats brutally.
Although I don't know what happened to the woman, I know her personality has become distorted.
The woman's words had completely angered Wang Po.
The evil spirit in Wang Po's body was churning, and sharp claws soon grew on her fingers.
Wang Po said to the woman angrily, "No, I won't allow you to do this. Cats are my friends and my family. I won't allow you to hurt them! If you hurt them, I will kill you!"
There was a chill in Wang Po's voice.
In an instant, the temperature in the room suddenly became cold under the influence of the ghost energy on Wang Po.
But the woman still insisted, "I still want to kill the cats. They are the ones who killed me! Although you are a ghost, I am not afraid of ghosts. Even if you kill me, what does it matter? I have killed dozens of cats. I have killed them all."
"Even if I die, so what? This world isn't a good place anyway. I've been thinking about leaving for a long time!"
The woman laughed strangely, staring at Wang Po and said, "If you kill me, maybe I can become a ghost like you. If that happens, I won't have to use this stinking body of mine anymore! I can also kill more cats!!"
At this point, the woman began to yell, "Come on, kill me, kill me now, if you don't kill me, I will kill more cats, many, many cats!"
The woman's mental state seemed to be unstable, sometimes she was noisy, sometimes she was laughing, which was obviously not the reaction of a normal person.
My first feeling was that the woman in front of me was a mental patient.
At this time, Wang Po, who was completely enraged, had already pounced on the woman.
The woman stood there, still laughing wildly, with no fear on her face, and her eyes were full of light. Did she long for death
No, it's not normal, it's too abnormal. This woman definitely has mental problems.
