Everyone turned into cats, and they were so happy that they meowed together.It doesn't matter if you call it, drink it!In all directions, on the ridge, on the branches, on the wall, on the ground, all the cats meowed, probably all the cats in Singapore, old, young, ugly, handsome, black and white, all white, not a single one left, All come!The group of cats all walked forward with their tails pouted, and after a while, they surrounded the little slopes in the middle, with three floors inside and three floors outside.After finishing the circle, they sat down with both legs, raised one front leg to the ear, and said together: "Nominate a representative!" push.After pushing for a long time, I pushed out a thin and weak old cat in front of me.Everyone shouted together again: "The representatives have come out, go, negotiate with them!"

Seeing that it was a bit ridiculous to elect delegates like this, Nan Xing hurriedly applauded them, but unfortunately his hands had become cat's paws, so soft that he couldn't clap them; so he meowed loudly twice. "Don't make noise! ​​Don't make any noise!" said the thin cat representative, staring at Nan Xing.Then, he walked over slowly, sniffed the noses of Xiaopos, and said, "Who is your representative?" arrogant. "We are all representatives!" Xiaopo said together. "They are all representatives?" The old cat looked around, as if he had lost his mind.

"It's all representatives, so you don't have to push!" said a fox-skinned cat.The old cat nodded, and muttered for a long time, "You guys are so bold! You dared to become a cat without our permission, and even turned into a very big cat! Pretending to be a big cat, you should What crime! Ah!" The old cat seemed to get more and more angry as he spoke, his eyes widened like two green beads. The cats in the surrounding area were very proud when they heard it, and they all gurgled in their throats. "Fight them!" Nanxing Xiaopo muttered. "There are too many of them!" Xiaopo said in a low voice, and then asked the two Malay girls, "Do you have any ideas?"

"Let's wash our faces first, and think about our ideas while washing; maybe they will think we are real cats when they see that we can wash our faces." They said, grabbing Xiaopo's tail. "Wash your face!" Xiaopo ordered. Everyone raised their front paws, got some saliva on them, and slid from behind the ears to the bridge of the nose, and then from the bridge of the ears to the back of the ears. It was quite interesting to wash; while washing, they wanted to escape. Nan Xing couldn't think of an idea, and in a hurry, he lifted up his two front legs, and washed his face with both hands like he was washing his face at home, washing things here and there. "Look!" The old cat smiled to the surroundings, and said, "There are cats who wash their faces with both hands?! What should we do? Or bite off their ears, or bite off their tails, and make them bald cats?"

Xianpo hurriedly hid his tail under his body, covered his ears with his hands, and said to Xiaopo in a low voice: "Second brother! Think about it! They are going to bite their ears!" Xiaopo unhurriedly looked up at the tree, then at the roof, and suddenly called out: "Mouse!" The cats around immediately raised their ears, bowed their waists, and turned their eyes around. "One on the tree! Three on the house!" Xiaopo pointed. The cats didn't wait for the representative to give an order, and all rushed to the tree house. Nan Xing went over to give the cat representative a mouth, and ran away after pulling three more.Sanduo had only one eye and couldn't see the road clearly, so he swayed and fell straight.

Everyone ran desperately.Suddenly turned into a cat, his eyes were too close to the ground, and he was a little dizzy.So everyone closed their eyes and ran around. "Second Brother," Xianpo asked pantingly with his eyes closed, "Where did you run?" "Open your eyes and see!" Xiaopo said to everyone. Everyone stopped, opened their eyes and saw a high mountain in front of them.Electric lights are installed all over the mountain, illuminating the mountain road clearly, and the green trees beside the road sway under the lights, like a green cloud.Not far away on the road, there is a big sika deer with long horns and a command knife hanging from its horns. It is probably a patrolman here. "This is Hushan, right? Let's find the old man!" Nan Xing was very happy.

"I'll ask the policeman later," Xiaopo said. "I'm going too!" Nan Xing said. The two of them stepped forward and nodded to the sika deer. "May I ask if this is Hushan?" Xiaopo asked politely.The sika deer bleated. "Where is Tiger School?" The deer pointed to the left side of the mountain with its big horns, and bleated again. "The teacher in the school is a bad old man, isn't he?" Nan Xing asked.The deer bleats again. "Old Lu, you are so interesting, can I ride you for a while?" Nan Xing said and was about to jump up.

Lao Lu glared at Nan Xing and shook his head. "Nan Xing! Good!" Xiaopo said. The old deer bleated politely to Xiaopo. Xiaopo raised his hand to the old deer and walked back, Nan Xing followed behind, very dissatisfied that Xiaopo stopped him from riding the deer. "This is Tiger Mountain, isn't it?" Xianpo asked. "It's Hushan, and the Tiger School is not far from here," Xiaopo said. "If it's not far from Tiger School," Sanduo recalled the horror of the old man, "I'd better go home and sleep for a while." "If you love to sleep, you shouldn't have come here long ago!" said the two little Indians together.Sanduo fell silent, and glared at them with his blind eye.

"Why are you bothering, why don't you mess up the old man!" Nan Xing said anxiously. "No way, we have to go to La Baji first, without him, how would we know Big Tiger and Gougou?" Xiaopo said. "Then let's find him!" Nan Xing said. "But where is he?" Xiaopo forgot where Happa was because he ran around for a while. "Who knows!" The two Malay girls smiled sourly. "I have to ask the policeman, let me see." Xiaopo said, his face flushed a little.Everyone didn't say anything, and went up the mountain road together to find the patrolman.

Seeing the sika deer with the knife on it, everyone asked together, "Where is Helaba Chi?" The old deer bleated at him and kept shaking his head. "Okay! Old Lu doesn't know either!" Nan Xing said. "How should the old deer know!" The two Malay girls whispered. "Let's go find him!" Xiaopo said. "Come on, take the train, I'll drive!" Nan Xing said "the door!", scaring the sika deer into jumping. "It's you driving again! Don't take the train!" said the two Malay girls. "Don't sit down, pull down! I'll drive alone, faster!" Nan Xing ran down the hill as he said that, with loud noises in his mouth.

"Nanxing! Come back! Do you know where to go?" Xiaopo shouted. "I don't know, do you know?" Nan Xing shouted back. Xiaopo had nothing to say. "Anyway, everyone doesn't know, just run with Nan Xing, maybe you will meet Helabaji on the way!" Two Xiaoyin.As he spoke, he rushed forward and grabbed Nan Xing by the tail. The others didn't have a good idea, so they all had to catch up, pulling their tails, and running forward in a row. "Everyone, look to the left and right, if you see the one wearing the straw hat, it's Halaba!" Xiaopo yelled from behind. Everyone turned their heads to the left and to the right, regardless of looking ahead again.Running and running, Nan Xing's head hit an old tree. Fortunately, everyone turned into a cat with agile hands and feet. Except for Nan Xing who fell on the root of the tree, everyone climbed up the tree in a hurry.Nan Xing had a big bump on his forehead, and while touching it with his hands, he babbled: "Crazy ideas! Don't look ahead when driving the train! There's something there! There's something there!" Everyone jumped down from the tree and scrambled to touch the big bump on Nan Xing's forehead with cat hands.Eager to flatten his bag, everyone exerted too much force, and with a grunt, pressed the bag on his forehead to the top of his head. "It's done! It's done!" Everyone said in unison. Nan Xing rubbed his forehead, and sure enough it was flat, so he didn't care whether the back of his head was swollen or flat, and got ready to drive again. "Don't drive, you'll never be able to find Silabah in your life." Xiaopo said to everyone. "What should I do?" Everyone asked together. "Let's just sit here and wait for him, anyway, he's going to come to Hushan, isn't it?" Xiaopo squatted on a rock and said. "That's fine," said the two Malay girls, who disliked trains the most. Everyone sat back to back on the big rock, and the rock was a bit cold, so they all put their tails under their bodies. After sitting for a while, the cool breeze blew and everyone felt a little sleepy.Nan Xing was the first one. He lowered his head and closed his eyes.After staying for a while, he lay down slowly again, hid his mouth on the thick fur on his chest, and fell asleep soundly.Everyone also followed his example and lay down to sleep. Xianpo was not very fast asleep when he heard a soft thud thump on the ground.She slowly opened her eyes and looked out secretly.Unfortunately, there were four or five little tigers (who looked like cats, but were "big" with thick necks and eyes that glowed like small electric lights.) all carrying schoolbags and wearing boy scout caps, they walked towards them. Come on, Xianpo didn't even dare to move a hair, just watched secretly: the little tigers stopped in front of them.Xianpo quickly closed his eyes, not daring to look any more, and listened to the little tigers talking: "What are these children doing?" "Students too?" "No, no schoolbag!" "Maybe it's not tigers, look at how small they are!" "And a blind man! Look!" Xianpo secretly opened one eye to look, so the little tiger thought she was blind.She quickly closed her eyes and listened: "Ask what they do, okay?" "Surround them first, don't tell them to run away!" The little tigers surrounded them and shouted together: "Don't sleep! What are you doing? Talk!" Everyone woke up and stared blankly at the little tigers. "Speak!" said the little tigers. "What are you asking us?" Nan Xing said, "Who are we asking?" The little tigers all took off their hats and scratched their heads, as if they didn't quite understand what Nan Xing said. "We are little tigers!" Xiaopo said. "Where are your books?" One of the little tigers asked Xiaopo. "Books? At school." The little tigers muttered for a long time, and one of them took out a yellow book from his schoolbag, flipped through a few chapters, and asked Xiaopo: "What is your seventh lesson?" "The seventh lesson?" Xiaopo thought for a long time: " What is your seventh lesson?" "I never read the seventh lesson!" Nan Xing interrupted. "Listen!" Xiaohu glared at Nan Xing, and then said in a tone: "Lesson 7: Humans, cats, and dogs are all delicious! Catch one and eat one, catch two and eat a pair. After eating, Round belly and smooth mouth!" Xiaohu put the book on the floor after reading, and smiled for a while. Xianpo was so frightened that his heart really trembled.The two Malay chicks huddled together, not daring to make a sound. "Our seventh lesson is not like this!" Xiao Po said loudly: "Listen up! Lesson 7: Poor old man, it's so delicious! Catch one and eat one, catch—are there two?" He turned around and asked Nan Xing. "San Duo knows!" Nan Xing said. "One is enough, how about two?" Sanduo said tremblingly. "Catch one and eat one, catch two, can't catch two, because there's only one! Can't catch, blow, pull down, Xilihua pulls a lot!" After Xiaopo finished speaking, he blew on the bridge of Xiaohu's nose . After the little tigers heard this lesson, everyone muttered again.The tiger has a thick neck and a strong breath. Although it is muttering, its voice is not low: "They dare to spoil the old man!" "Dare to eat bad old man!!" "A lot of guts!" "Admirable!" "Ask them to play with us?" "Sure! Ask them to teach us how to eat bad old men?" "Maybe it's not bad to eat with some soy sauce and vinegar?" "It's better to add some coffee, it's spicy!" Nan Xing replied. "Would they like to play with us?" said a little tiger girl. "Of course!" Xiaopo said politely. "Then, please, please come to our cave and play!" "Please! Please!" said the little slopes.
