Chapter 54: 20.1

Her claws digging into the earth, Bai Xia Xia finally steadied herself from the momentum of rolling away. She shook her head, the white cat that was covered in dirt had already completely turned into a gray cat. Her pink nose was blackish, her forehead was full of gray streaks, and she became a streaked cat.

She struggled to messily crawl through the bushes, depending on her instincts to find the direction.

Bai Xia Xia intentionally chose an exit that avoided Da Hua, worried that he would sneakily do some mischief. The kitty’s back half of the body was covered in the low bushes, and it worked hard to take its plush round head that was covered in dead leaves out of the dense leaves.

“Pfft, pft, pfffttt!” She unluckily ate a mouthful of grass and dirt.

Bai Xia Xia spit out the leaves, her mouth was filled with a weird taste, and it was even mixed with the flavour of grass and leaves.

The side of the road was mostly box plants, in clusters, there was light green foliage covered with light down feathers, but fortunately, they did not have thorns, so they did not harm Bai Xia Xia, however, those leaves would plop off at a light touch, and all of it went towards her body, and it was a bit prickly.

Box plant

Bai Xia Xia extended her Er Kang paw[1] towards the road, but in the front a fat tiger face that was cautious, innocent, and anxious suddenly appeared. Da Hua’s fur was shiny and smooth, his two chubby cheeks also jiggled, he opened his big eyes and sincerely acted cute: “Xia Xia, are you okay? Just now I forgot that you were on my back…”

Er Kang hand, paw in this case

Bai Xia Xia kept an indifferent face, her kitty paw pushed away the fat tiger face that was fully written with eagerness and fawning, struggling out of the bushes: Don’t think that just because you’re acting like a pitiful b*tch that I’ll not know what bad ideas you’re thinking of!

You want to scare me and make me fall once again? Humph, fat tiger, you’re too naïve!

The fat tiger was lying down innocently, and its tongue happily finished licking the cat. Its big paws hurriedly drew together, as if it a little student that was always waiting for class to start, its airplane ears were almost flung to the back of its head.

Da Hua looked at the grayish cat, feeling a bit satisfied: It was agreed upon that if smart tiger worked, he would have meat to eat, the type that’s extremely delicious! Fat tiger waited for two days, there was no comfort, no meat, no Xia Xia to talk with, to eat with, and to play with.

Pity Da Hua who was deceived by the cat, he’s so miserable, so miserable, so miserable…

Ah! The bad smugglers were caught, the unlucky Bai Xia Xia, she did not bring Da Hua, then escaped with the meat!

Hua Hua was deceived, Hua Hua was unhappy, Hua Hua knew when to stop, so he carried Bai Xia Xia to get his retaliation— —this time, we’ll get a whole dragon[2], a full set!

The striking tiger leapt into the jungle, faint flashes of yellow shuttled through and jumped, and soon its traces disappeared.

By the creek northwest to the base, the so-called ‘White Monkeys, Wild Monkeys, One Family’ on top of the second tree, was in fact a big, recombined household, it was not a complete group of monkeys.

In it, there was only one mutated albino old monkey.

In the household, the six to seven monkeys were all stray monkeys who had been driven away or abandoned by the troop[3] of monkeys, there were those who had been defeated in a battle, weak old monkey kings who were expelled after gradually becoming old. There were also baby monkeys that had been inadvertently abandoned by monkey mothers, no longer to be found.

The Monkey Mother spoken of by Bai Xia Xia was a macaque that had lost her baby monkey, separated from the troop of monkeys to search for her child, not gotten it back despite looking all over, and in the end had also broken away from the troop herself.

Macaque

The monkey species in the Wild Monkey household varied, they were either old, young, or some who were not accepted by the monkey troop, and they frequently experienced food shortages.

Bai Xia Xia had accidentally encountered Monkey Mother looking for food with a small monkey that had a broken tail and had seen them being stoned and being bullied in all sorts of ways by the troop.

Not only that, she then saw how the wild fruits that they had arduously picked were stolen by the monkey troop too, the small monkey’s fur was bald, and it was on the brink of death from starving.

Bai Xia Xia wanted to help, and at that time she was coincidentally worried about being contaminated with dirty things, so to get the best of both worlds[4], she extended out the loving paw of Cat.

Then, Monkey Mother deduced many things from one case[5], one gold carried six bronze[6], and lead the whole family to a well-off life.

Crossing through the jungle, Da Hua’s fluffy meat paws silently landed on the ground, when he passed through the jungle, only the rustling of finely crushed leaves was heard.

Even though Bai Xia Xia had become a cat, what she had worked super hard to imitate was not a true cat. The hunting instincts and habits of cats, she had none of them.

Just like what had Qin Xiao said, even grinding claws was something that she rarely did.

The climate below the mountain was still hot, but inside the mountain cool breeze blew, Bai Xia Xia was blown until she was very comfortable.

The cool feeling that came after the wind blew up the fur, compared to when blown as a human, was completely different.

The Persian cat tightly attached itself to Da Hua, it could feel the undulating motion of Da Hua’s back when he moved, there was a bit of jolting, but overall, it was steady. The only thing was… her feet seemed to be fluttering, when Da Hua ran and jumped, she had nothing to step on, and it was as if she was flying.

Following the stream to trace up to its source.

The creek was two to three meters wide; the river water was clear enough to see the bottom, and under the sunlight, it shimmered golden.

Bai Xia Xia liked this place a lot, it was clear and clean. The source of the stream was a mountain stream that flowed from a mountain spring, winding around to come together into a brook.

This was a place that Bai Xia Xia frequented, it was the place where she got water.

Translator’s comments:

Da Hua and Bai Xia Xia shenanigans are always welcome.

So glad that the author included bg info about our animal friends ^^.

Translator’s notes:

[1] It refers to a movement from the character 尔康 (ěr kāng) from the drama My Fair Princess《还珠格格》when he is telling his wife to wait and not go. See image below.

[2] So here, the use of the word ‘dragon’ is probably to express that they’ll get the best thing, as a way of exaggeration since dragons don’t exist. Or at least that’s what I think.

[3] For those who don’t know, a group of monkeys is called a troop, and it’s comprised of several hundreds of them.

[4] Idiomatic expression ‘两全其美 (liǎng quán qí měi)’: lit. translation: ‘two completes make a beautiful’. It means ‘doing something that gets benefits for both sides’.

[5] Idiomatic expression ‘举一反三 (jǔ yī fǎn sān)’: lit. translation: ‘raising one and inferring three’. It means ‘deducing many things from one case’.

[6] You guys have no idea how hard it was for me to get this reference since I don’t play games LOL.

First, Monkey Mother is the ‘one gold’, and the rest of the family is the ‘six bronze’, so the whole family of stray monkeys sums up to a total of seven.

Second, the ‘gold’ and ‘bronze’ refer to the game Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege. Apparently, there’s a ranking system which features the ranks Copper, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Champions, with the Copper rank being the lowest and Champions the highest. So, the author meant to say that Monkey Mother carried the other monkeys in the family.

For all I know, it may have been a reference to another game, such as League of Legends or anyone with a ranking system that includes Bronze and Gold, but I stuck with Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege since the article that cleared up things for me was categorized under that game.
