Chapter 131 Throwing lost teeth on the roof The teeth are white, thin and pointed. "What should I do, Nimu? Why did Lord Yogurt's teeth fall out?" The kitten's eyes revealed a little panic. "Don't be afraid, let me take a look at your mouth first." Li Mu gently stroked the kitten's back to comfort her, then held her in his arms: "Mr. Yogurt, please open your mouth." "Ah~" "Open wider." "Ah~~" The kitten opened its mouth as wide as possible, revealing its white teeth and pink tongue. There are four canine teeth in a cat's mouth. Now there is one missing in the lower left corner. If you look closely, you can see that a pointed new tooth has emerged on the gums in the vacant position. "So that's how it is. No need to open your mouth." Li Mu smiled and put the kitten back on the table. "Why did Mr. Yogurt's teeth fall out?" The kitten squatted on the table and looked at Li Mu nervously.
"Because Master Yogurt has grown up and is about to start changing his teeth." "Change teeth?" "Mr. Yogurt's previous teeth were the baby teeth of a kitten, and this time they will be replaced with the hard teeth of a big cat." "big cat!" "Yes, after this replacement of teeth, Master Yogurt will have sharper and stronger teeth like a big cat." The cat lowered its head and stretched out its little paw to move the tiny fang. The panic in its eyes disappeared, replaced by the excitement and happiness of becoming a big cat. "What mini teeth!" Brother Nan leaned over and stared at the fangs on the table. The cat used its little paw to push its teeth towards Brother Nan, like a child showing off its treasure, "Brother Lan, Master Yogurt is going to change his teeth and become a big cat!" "Oh? You want to give me the tooth?" Brother Nan picked up the small tooth on the table, put it in front of his eyes and said, "No, the fallen teeth should be thrown on the roof." "Meow?" The kitten tilted her head. She didn't understand what Brother Nan said. "You translate what I said to her." Brother Nan stared at his teeth and said to Li Mu without raising his head. Li Mu pursed his lips and looked at the kitten: "Brother Nan said that the lost teeth should be thrown on the roof." After saying that, he secretly glanced at Brother Nan, who was holding the little canine tooth up to the light and looking at it, as if he couldn't hear what he was saying. "Why throw it on the roof?" the kitten asked curiously. "In our human world, there is a traditional custom that children's replaced teeth cannot be thrown away casually, otherwise the new teeth will not grow properly." "What should we do then?" The kitten turned his head and looked at the tooth in Brother Nan's hand. "Throw it on the roof and bury it underground." Li Mu didn't wait for the kitten to ask questions and continued, "According to the old people, if the upper teeth fall off, they should be buried underground, and the lower teeth should be thrown onto the roof."
"Why?" the kitten asked. Li Mu smiled and touched the cat's forehead. "Because the upper teeth grow downwards, bury them in the soil. The lower teeth grow upwards, so throw them on the roof. This way, the teeth won't grow crooked." "You are a bit superstitious. Science has proven that you can grow healthy teeth without throwing things on the roof." Brother Nan said from the side. She had been eavesdropping with her ears perked up. "But," Brother Nan added, "we all grew up this way when we were little. This is called inheritance." Li Mu nodded. Many customs of Long Kingdom seem superstitious, but in fact, they contain the wisdom and emotions of the ancients. For example, throwing teeth contains parents’ good wishes for their children to grow up healthily. "Can I help you throw it onto the roof?" Brother Nan asked the kitten. "Brother Nan said he would help you throw your teeth onto the roof." "Hmm," the kitten tilted his head and thought for a moment, "If I throw it higher, will my teeth grow better?" "Yes." Li Mu looked at the small second floor in the middle of the yard, "Our house has two floors, it's very tall." "not tall." "Ok?" "No mountain is as high as the original god." "Is that so?" Li Mu couldn't help but curl his lips. "What are you talking about?" Brother Nan was listening to this and felt itchy inside. He couldn't hold it in and looked at Li Mu: "Quickly translate it for me." "Yogurt wants to throw his teeth higher." "Aren't our two floors too short?" "Do you still remember the musk deer that took us to pick matsutake mushrooms last time?" Li Mu told Brother Nan about the general situation of rescuing the musk deer and the mountain. "Oh" Brother Nan turned his head and looked at the green peridot hanging under the eaves: "Is that the mountain where Yogurt picked up the gemstone for his house?" "Yeah." "Okay." Brother Nan made an OK gesture, "Let's patrol the forest early tomorrow, and then climb that mountain." Li Mu nodded. Since both Suoyou and Brother Nan wanted to go to that mountain, he naturally would not object. "Here, put the tooth away." Brother Nan placed the small canine tooth in Li Mu's palm. "Master Yogurt, do you want to keep it for yourself?" Li Mu handed the tooth in his palm to the kitten. "Please put it there for Lord Yogurt." After taking a look, the kitten walked to her small bowl and continued eating the dried rat. "Your teeth haven't grown fully yet, so don't chew hard things recently." Li Mu picked up the dried rat, tore the rat meat into small strips and put them in the kitten's bowl. Brother Nan also tore some green onion and chicken for the kitten. After dinner, Brother Nan and Li Mu went to wash the dishes together.
The cat jumped off the table, climbed onto the courtyard wall, and stretched its neck to look at the mountains under the night sky. "What is Mr. Yogurt looking at?" The cubs who were also playing in the yard after eating squatted under the wall and looked at the kitten. “Look at the mountains.” The kitten turned around and jumped off the wall, walking to the group of cubs, "Master Yogurt is going to throw the lost tooth to a very high mountain, and I will be a big cat from now on!" "Wow, that's amazing!" "Why aren't my teeth falling out?" The tiger cub licked the teeth in her mouth and didn't feel any of them were about to fall out. "What are you talking about?" After washing the dishes, Li Mu saw a group of cubs gathered together and chirping, so he walked towards them. "Li Mu, look at my tooth. Is it going to fall out?" The tiger cub sister ran to his feet and said, "I also want to throw my tooth onto a high mountain like Master Yogurt!" After saying that, the tiger cub sister opened her mouth wide and asked Li Mu to help her look. "I want one too!" My younger brother also ran over. "You are still young, and it will take some time for you to change your teeth." Li Mu squatted down and touched the tiger cubs. "What about us?" asked the wolf cub. "Your teeth should be replaced soon." Li Mu touched the wolf cub again. They have entered the molar stage, and the new teeth will push out the deciduous teeth when they grow out. "Even if our teeth fall off, we will throw them onto the high mountains!" The wolf cubs jumped for joy. "Okay, throw them all onto the mountain." Li Mu touched the cubs one by one. It seemed that this human custom would become popular in the animal world brought by kittens. After wiping the kitten's paws clean, the kitten jumped onto the bed and lay down. "Mr. Yogurt, haven't you felt your teeth are itchy during this period?" Li Mu lay down on the bed and asked the question in his mind. As soon as the wolf cubs entered the teething period, they couldn't help biting hard objects such as shoes, but he didn't find anything unusual with Yogurt. If his tooth hadn't fallen out naturally while eating tonight, he wouldn't have known that the kitten had also started to change its teeth. "It's itchy." The kitten licked its paws twice and washed its face. "Then why don't we see Master Yogurt biting anything?" "Bitten." "What was bitten? I didn't see anything bitten in the house?" Li Mu turned sideways and looked at the kitten. Except for the last time when the wolf cubs chewed a pair of his slippers, and he made them into teething toys, nothing in the house had been bitten. "They bit the branches and there were mice." The kitten stared at Li Mu, his eyes reflecting the light, sparkling: "You can't bite things at home." "So you have to run out every time you have an itchy tooth?"
"Yes." "Mr. Yogurt is really sensible." Li Mu hugged the cat in his arms. How could you not love such a sensible kitten? "Sensible~" "Why didn't you tell me that your teeth were itching?" "Master Yogurt doesn't know he needs to change his teeth." "I'm sorry, I forgot that Master Yogurt also has a teething period, so I didn't prepare any teething toys for you, so you have to run out and chew on branches every day." "It's okay." The kitten imitated the way Li Mu touched her, stretched out a little paw and pressed it on his face and stroked it gently, the little paw pad was soft. "Why isn't it daybreak yet?" "It will be light after a good night's sleep, and then we will put Lord Yogurt's teeth on the top of the highest mountain." "Master Yogurt will go to sleep now!" The cat lay down, closed its eyes and remained silent. Thanks to Sunshine Boy Boss for the monthly vote! Thank you to Billion Loli Dream for the monthly vote!
