Folktale The Strange Black Cat

Mondo Culture Updated on 2024-03-07

It is said that the cat is the messenger of the two worlds of yin and yang, and can perceive all the existence in the three worlds, and can see things in more dimensions. This explains why cats often bark or pounce on a place where there is nothing. Things can be weirder than you realize.

This happened in my hometown, and at that time it was widely spread that there was a child named Pheasant in the village, and the family had a black cat, which was said to have been raised for many years. It was one night of the Qingming Festival, the pheasant fell asleep and was suddenly woken up by a cat meow, the sound sounded very harsh, the pheasant felt very curious, so he climbed to the window to look out, as far as the eye could see, there was a black cat standing on the roof opposite, the cat's appearance was very strange, at this time it was standing on the roof on its hind legs. While kneeling and bowing, the pheasant fixed his eyes and saw that it was the old black cat he had at home. The black cat's front paws were folded into an arched posture, its eyes were glowing faintly, and the cat's mouth kept making strange noises. This made the pheasant feel very strange, and the black cat acted like a human. Just when the pheasant was fascinated, his grandfather woke up and asked him what he was doing without sleeping in the middle of the night. The pheasant just wanted his grandfather to see the scene, but the black cat seemed to hear their conversation, glanced back at the two of them, and then turned and disappeared. The pheasant was afraid that his mother would reprimand him, so he quickly lay down on the bed, so he ran out into the yard as soon as he woke up the next day. At this time, the black cat was lying on the eaves, lazily closing his eyes and basking in the sun, as if sensing that someone was looking at him, after opening his eyes and taking a look, he turned his head impatiently, I don't know why the pheasant always felt that the black cat seemed to be enlightened, and just now that look seemed to be complaining that the pheasant spoiled his good deeds last night. But about this black cat, what really makes the pheasant feel incredible to this day happened two months later, when his grandfather had a heart attack due to an argument with someone, and he was sent to the hospital with a heart attack. After the grandfather left, the family cried and grief-stricken. There is a rule in our hometown that when the elderly in the family die, they must keep a vigil for 3 days before they can be buried, so that relatives can come to see the old man for the last time. And on the night when the pheasant's grandfather just died, he heard the strange cry of the black cat, and the pheasant hurriedly came to the window to look out, it was the old black cat of his family, and the black cat was followed by a figure, the pheasant was very sensible at that time, thinking that it was a relative of the family to run for the funeral, so he hurried to the door to greet him. But when he went out, the figure had come to the gate of the courtyard with the black cat, but to the surprise of the pheasant, the old man looked exactly like his grandfather, the pheasant was frightened by this strange scene, and screamed, the movement of the pheasant alarmed the elders in the house, and the family all ran out, as soon as they came, they saw the pheasant and the old black cat standing, and the father of the pheasant reprimanded him after listening to the pheasant's explanation, and asked him to go back to sleep quickly, don't talk nonsense. So everyone had to be busy dealing with the old man's funeral, and they didn't have time to take care of him, the pheasant glanced at the old black cat on the ground, his mind was buzzing blank, and he once suspected that he was hallucinating?

At this moment, the frightened cries of the family suddenly came from the room, and the pheasant, who heard the movement, also hurriedly ran into the house, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw his father sitting on the ground with a blue face. Looking along the line of sight, his grandfather, who had already passed away, sat up from the bed at this moment, the grandfather's corpse had long been hard, and now he actually woke up again, and after a long time, everyone confirmed that the old man was not a fraudulent corpse, but when the grandfather of the pheasant eased up, he mentioned the black cat at home, and he was going to find the old black cat, which made everyone confused. However, seeing that the old man was in a hurry, everyone could only help to look around the house, but the old black cat who was still in the yard just now couldn't find it. The incident soon exploded in the village, and the pheasant's grandfather came back to life, and the pheasant never saw the old black cat again.
