Chapter 77 Black Cat
Black cat! A cat that is so pure black that it is free of fur.
Speaking of which, people now seem to think that black cats are an ominous animal, and seeing them will bring bad luck, or encounter ghosts.
In fact, it is not the case. It means that this black cat means auspiciousness. In ancient times, people believed that black cats could ward off evil spirits, prevent monsters and monsters from approaching, and could also bring good luck to their owners. Therefore, in ancient times, wealthy families had the habit of raising black cats or placing black cat accessories. For example, hanging a wind chime with a black cat at the door. Some rich people used gold to make cats as decorations, and they had to paint black with paint.
It was only in the Qing Dynasty that black cats were considered bad luck for unknown reasons.
Black cats are evil-proof. Black cats usually take the initiative to suppress unclean existences, so black cats always appear in places with heavy evil spirits, because only in this way people mistakenly think that it is a big danger to encounter black cats. In fact, raising a black cat at home can greatly ward off evil-proofing.
"The mysterious cat is a thing that wards off evil spirits. It is easy to place it in the south. It is suitable for descendants..." The 'Xuancat' is a black cat, which is used for warding off evil spirits. Later generations probably only look at the surface phenomenon and think that the black cat will have bad luck when it appears, so they will put all the blame on the black cat indiscriminately. "Easy to place it in the south" means that it is best to keep it at the door. The ancients opened the door to the south. The 'Suancat' is suitable for descendants' probably to always work and protect the owners and even descendants of the house. Or that is, the descendants of the black cat are OK."
In ancient Egypt, black cats were regarded as spiritual pets.
Before people were afraid of cats, they were in awe. The ancient Egyptians first domesticated cats as domestic pets, and eventually cats became the object of their religious worship. Around 2000 BC, the goddess Bastet was portrayed as a human-body woman, and was worshipped as a god of yield and recovery. According to Greek historian Diodorus siculus, cats lived in temples, using milk, bread and Nile fish.
The social status of people who feed and even take care of cats is very high. Later, cats were considered not only the incarnation of goddesses, but also became gods themselves. Even if a cat was killed accidentally, they would be sentenced to death. If a domestic cat died accidentally, the whole family would shave off its eyebrows to express condolences. Cat amulets are very popular. Even after the cat dies, the reverence for them still does not disappear. Burying cats should show respect for them. At that time, this way was to make it a mummy (people believe that mummies can rebirth the soul).
Speaking of which, it seems that only us people always think that black cats are unlucky. It is probably related to some legendary ghost stories, but I don’t care much. Speaking of which, I really have a fate with this cat. Why do I say that?
I remember that on the fifth day I came here, my master had something to do that day, and I was the only one who said that even if I had my master, it would be useless. That guy, relying on his old man, is said to have contributed to this group. Anyway, he just said that he drank some wine by himself. I also listened to it.
Or is this cat... I was on night shift that night, and there were a lot of people working in our company at night. Some operators had to work shifts, but people could stop the machine but not. Fortunately, they were in shifts four and three. I believe that everyone with work experience knew about it.
So we don’t just have three meals a day, it should be four meals, and there is one meal at 10:30 in the evening, and I’m really hungry at night. I don’t look tired when on duty, but in fact, our database is really tired when on duty.
Because the machines are constantly stopping, my warehouse will have raw materials and semi-finished products in and out day and night. It is impossible to sleep like other companies at night.
I came back from cooking that night. I have to say that the food that day was really good. I had two braised fish that I liked the most. I took a full meal and two braised fish back to the warehouse. As for the warehouse duty room, it was actually a small iron room.
I don't like it, and I always feel like a squatting squatting. I just found a box to sit on it, put a military back on it, and then poured it into the warehouse at night. I can hear people coming in and work conveniently.
The same is true today. The difference is that just as I was about to have a meal, I found a black shadow hiding behind the box I just sent today. Only the pair of green eyes were particularly eye-catching.
If it were the past, I would have been really scared. Now, after experiencing those things, I was already numb. Looking at those eyes, I guess what this is? At the beginning, I wanted to guess the mouse, but think about it, this head is not small. If it were really a mouse, how big would it be? Even more impossible, what is that? Could it be that there is also a yellow-skinned fairy in this factory?
Soon I discovered that those eyes were not me, but the food I wanted to eat. I picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks, compared it to those eyes, and put it in my mouth.
I obviously saw the desire in those eyes. Anyway, it was fine at night, and there was no delivery now. I just sat there and spent my time with my eyes. If someone else was there, I would definitely think I was crazy, but I really found it interesting.
Soon I knew what it was, because the other party seemed to feel that I had no malice and slowly walked out of the cat step... Well! It was the cat step, and the cat walkway was not the cat step, so what was the name of it.
This cat is very bold. If it is another cat, especially stray cats, people should be careful about. They are basically guarded against people, even if you are kind enough to feed them, they will not do it. They will hide from you and are wary in their eyes.
The black cat that appeared was different. It was walking there in one step and three steps, then slowly rushed to the place where I was eating, sitting opposite me, with the pot of fish in the middle, looking at me without moving, and then looking at the fish in the pot.
Damn! You want to become a sperm, what does it mean? You want to eat fish! I don’t know why I could understand so many things from the cat’s eyes. Didn’t it mean that you can’t become a sperm after liberation? So what is this?
By the way, where did you get such confidence? Don’t treat yourself as an outsider... No! Don’t treat yourself as an outsider? No~! Anyway, that’s what I mean, I won’t give it to you.
Just as I was about to get off my mouth, I saw the cat, and it actually stretched out its black claws and stopped my chopsticks! Then I looked at me with my ice-cold green eyes, and I understood it in a second. That's what you mean, you have to give me a fish!
