After another check to ensure the scent of the elixir wouldn't seep out, Li Qing finally went toward Han Mei's house with a peaceful mind.
Almost the moment his front foot left, a chubby orange cat sprang down from the treetops, heading straight for the well.
With one swipe of its paw, the huge stone that Li Qing had placed on top was cracked into pieces by the orange cat.
It then ripped open the well cover and slipped down the well along the rope.
But it had hardly descended two meters before it came back up, furious, and began to snarl and bare its teeth at the well.
The rope Li Qing had used was too thin and slippery for its paws to get a grip.
The obviously angry orange cat, seeing that it couldn't descend, attacked the steel wire rope tied to the well, biting it wildly with both paws and mouth.
Despite sparks flying everywhere, the steel wire rope was undamaged.
