"Great! Boss, what weakness?"
Hearing Lu Fei say this, Hu Zi immediately became spirited.
The Cat Demon was covered in blood, and its green cat eyes glinted with a terrifying light; just looking at it made him shiver.
And thinking of all the poultry in the village that had been brutally killed by this evil spirit, he felt even more afraid.
"Hu Zi, you tell me, what do cats fear the most?" Lu Fei smiled slightly and took out a bottle of water from his backpack.
"Water! Cats are afraid of water!" Hu Zi's eyes lit up.
"Exactly! This cat specter also died in the water, and water is its nemesis!"
The two of them cornered the cat specter.
The cat specter's black fur stood on end, emitting a wail similar to a cat's howl. Its green eyes, filled with resentment and fury, swung sharp claws at the two of them.
Huzi blocked it with his large Ghost Head saber, not giving it a chance to escape.
Lu Fei unscrewed the cap of the bottle and sprinkled the water inside towards the cat specter.
But just at that moment.
The portrait on the table dropped with a thud.
Immediately after.
The lamp went out without warning.
The entire room suddenly plunged into darkness.
"Damn!"
Lu Fei's heart sank, and he turned on the flashlight at the fastest speed, but where was the shadow of the cat spirit in the corner?
The flashlight quickly swept around.
The doors and windows were tightly closed, but there was no sign of the cat spirit anywhere, as if it had vanished into thin air.
"It's over! Boss, did it get away?" Hu Zi became anxious.
"It's only been a few seconds, that evil spirit must still be in the house!" Lu Fei remained calm.
The small black dog suddenly got up from the entrance and ran to the stairway.
"It went upstairs!"
"Quick!"
Lu Fei immediately climbed the stairs, and just as he was about to poke his head out, a cold light flashed above his head, and sharp claws instantly swiped down towards him.
He pulled his neck back and flung the thunderstruck wood upward.
Boom!
Electric light shot out.
The cat specter, having been caught off guard yesterday, immediately leapt away as soon as the light flashed, dodging with incredible speed.
Lu Fei took the opportunity to jump into the attic.
The little black dog, with its legs too short to climb the stairs, barked anxiously below.
Huzi came down, picked it up, and placed it on his shoulder, carrying it up to the attic together.
Lu Fei shone his flashlight around the room.
The light always fell just short of catching the cat specter. Cats are known for their speed and agility, and the cat specter perfectly inherited these traits, moving quickly and lightly without making a sound.
With the naked eye, it was very difficult to follow its trail, let alone splash water on it.
Tiger also turned on his flashlight.
The two beams of light swept quickly through the low, cluttered attic, but Mao Sha always managed to dodge perfectly.
The little black dog was like a radar, with both ears perked up, eyes bright, and suddenly it turned its head in one direction.
Lu Fei immediately swung the lightning-struck wood towards that direction.
Boom!
Amidst the flickering electric light, Mao Sha's eerie figure appeared and disappeared, dodging nimbly.
The electric light only grazed a bit of fur.
Tiger then threw the large knife in his hand forcefully at Mao Sha.
Mao Sha pushed off with both feet, dodged perfectly, and the large knife embedded itself in the wooden beam. Mao Sha quietly slipped past the wall, taking the opportunity to approach Tiger, who was now weaponless.
Tiger, spotting a piece of firewood on the ground, reached out to grab it as a weapon, but a terrifying cat face suddenly lunged at him.
He retreated in great alarm.
The sharp, curved claws were just inches away, about to pierce into Tiger's eyes.
"Tiger, get out of the way!"
At that moment.
Tiger felt his head being pushed forcefully aside, followed by a splash of water from behind.
The cat demon's pupils instantly dilated, and it retracted its claws, retreating in a panic.
But it was still too late.
The water splashed onto the cat demon, causing it to emit a shrill cry as if it had been hit with sulfuric acid instead of water. Black smoke rose from its body, and its fur was burned with several large holes.
The smell of burning spread through the stifling attic.
The cat demon immediately lost most of its mobility.
Lu Fei quickly opened the third bottle of water, pressing his advantage.
But at that moment.
A sudden gust of cold wind rose from the ground, dispersing the water droplets, not a single one landing on Cat Fiend.
Cat Fiend let out a quivering meow in the direction the wind came from, its eyes flashing with sorrow, and then jumped out through the hole in the roof.
"It's escaped again!"
Lu Fei frowned.
Both the sudden gust of cold wind and the abrupt extinguishing of the lights indicated something was helping Cat Fiend.
"Boss, we need to chase it! We can't let it get away again!"
Huzi pulled the ghost-head knife out of the wooden beam, and the two hurriedly rushed downstairs, opened the door, and dashed out.
There were drops of blood on the ground in the courtyard.
The two followed the blood trail and found that the cat spirit had not left the village at all, but instead ran towards other homes.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
"Ghost! Help..."
After running just a few steps, they heard terrified screams coming from a house.
"Quick!"
Their hearts tightened, and they dashed in that direction.
Sweat rolled down their faces with the wind.
As soon as they reached the door, it opened, and two people covered in blood stumbled out, barely escaping.
Behind them was the cat spirit, its eyes filled with malice.
The cat spirit's claws were drenched in blood. Seeing the two of them approaching, it bared its fangs ferociously.
"Tiger, you go save the people, I'll deal with it!"
Lu Fei shouted as he ran, swinging the thunderbolt wood forcefully at the Cat Malevolence.
Boom!
The second flash of lightning shot out.
Knowing the power of the lightning, the Cat Malevolence dodged and leapt out of the courtyard.
Lu Fei immediately gave chase.
The Cat Malevolence jumped quickly between the houses, with Lu Fei and the small black dog pursuing closely behind.
The Cat Malevolence turned and glared fiercely at Lu Fei, realizing it couldn't shake off this detestable human. After a few more leaps, it fled from the village and vanished into the dark fields in the blink of an eye.
Lu Fei and the small black dog chased after it, running for two or three miles on the cracked earth before the small black dog also lost its sense of direction.
"No need to look anymore, Xiao Hei, let's go back first!"
Lu Fei was worried that Cat Fiend might be using a distraction, so he didn't dare to run too far. He turned back with Xiaohui.
"Huzi, how are their injuries?"
Returning to the household where Cat Fiend had attacked, Lu Fei didn't even stop for a drink of water but immediately went to check on the two injured elderly people.
There were several bloody scratch marks on their bodies, and the skin and flesh were torn open. In a few places, the wounds were so deep that the bones were exposed.
"Huzi, quickly get the first-aid kit," Lu Fei said, feeling a knot in his heart.
Huzi hurriedly fetched the first-aid kit from the car.
The two of them carefully treated the elderly people's wounds, applying medicine and bandages.
The two elderly people trembled in pain, drenched in cold sweat.
After finishing, they carried the elderly back to their house to rest.
The elderly were severely injured and had been greatly frightened, so it wasn't long before they developed a high fever.
"With injuries this severe, we definitely need to take them to the hospital. But we can't leave tonight; if that cat demon comes back, the others will be in danger."
Lu Fei placed a ghost-repelling talisman on each of them, his expression grave.
"Huzi, you go and wake everyone up and get them to gather together. If the cat demon attacks one by one, we won't be able to protect everyone!"
