RMWDS -Chapter 295 Capsule Machine

Surrounding the statue, there were no traditional incense burners or prayer cushions.

Instead, there was a dense yet carefully arranged collection of large play structures.

Massive wooden cat trees rose layer upon layer, connecting all four floors. Thick transparent tubes crisscrossed throughout the building, allowing the cats to run and play. Soft cushions, hollow cat houses, dangling toys, and scratching posts filled every corner.

Rather than a temple, the entire four-story structure resembled an enormous luxury cat paradise.

The tourists were dumbfounded.

Inside the glass temple, the leader of the leopard cats from the mountain lay lazily atop the giant wooden statue’s head. Its amber eyes swept across the noisy crowd below while its tail swayed leisurely.

It still maintained its noble and aloof demeanor.

Clearly, it was extremely satisfied with this Mountain God Temple. Its previous petty jealousy had long since vanished, and it now looked every bit like a mountain deity receiving the worship of mortals.

As for that little phoenix that had suddenly stolen all the attention…

Forget it.

There was no need to argue with a baby that had just been born.

Nor was it the only cat inside.

Leopard cats of all sizes were scattered throughout the temple.

Some chased and played together in groups across the towering cat trees, leaping gracefully with agile movements.

Others strolled slowly across the soft cushions, stretching their bodies however they pleased.

And more than half of the cats were curled up inside warm cat beds, sleeping soundly with their eyes closed.

Every one of them looked relaxed and content.

Most outrageous of all—

There really was an offering table!

The long altar table was covered with all kinds of food beloved by cats: cat food, snacks, various fruits, and even intelligent drinking fountains.

The entire temple radiated warmth and vitality.

Every cat lived freely and comfortably, displaying the carefree attitude of creatures that were obviously cherished and pampered.

Many cat-loving tourists’ eyes lit up.

Holding up their phones, they took pictures frantically while marveling at the creativity and thoughtfulness of the resort.

“Oh my God, there’s actually an altar?! Can we make offerings? Leader Miao, I want to feed the kitties too!”

Miao Yunyou quickly explained,

“Everyone, please note that feeding services are temporarily unavailable.

For safety reasons, all food will be prepared by the resort itself, and professional staff will enter twice a day to clean.

Also, the cats on our mountain are very spiritual creatures. They are to be admired from afar, not disturbed.

Therefore, visitors are prohibited from entering the temple. Please enjoy the view from outside the red line.

Thank you for your cooperation.”

Moreover, in order to preserve the cats’ peace and quiet, the temple had been constructed with the thickest and most expensive soundproof tempered glass available.

No matter how many tourists outside screamed from being overwhelmed by the cuteness, the cats inside would remain undisturbed.

Just then, a tourist suddenly cried out,

“Wait! Look! What’s that?!”

Before everyone could recover from the shock of the transparent cat temple, something else on the fourth wooden wall attracted even more attention.

It was—

a gigantic capsule toy machine?!

This capsule machine was also framed with antique-style carved wood, blending perfectly with the classical aesthetic of the temple.

Its layout was simple and easy to understand.

At the bottom were a built-in coin slot and a large prize retrieval opening.

Beside the coin slot stood a polished wooden handle.

Directly above the handle was a large high-definition display screen.

At the moment, the screen was divided into three sections.

The three images currently displayed were:

• A chibi cat head.
• A gold coin.
• And the Chinese character “福” (fortune).

The upper half of the machine was divided into two separate capsule compartments, one large and one small, their difference in size immediately obvious.

Both compartments were filled to the brim with soft pink capsule balls, their gentle colors making them look especially cute.

(Sigh, my handwriting is ugly—please don’t laugh…)

Miao Yunyou slowly walked over to the capsule machine. Holding her microphone, her clear and bright voice spread steadily through the crowd as she explained the rules to everyone.

“Welcome to our resort’s Mountain God Temple.

I’m sure many of the guests staying with us today have already received lucky coins.

These lucky coins are the exclusive tokens for this interactive capsule machine.

Simply insert the coin into the slot below and turn the wooden handle beside it. The screen above will then randomly display three symbols.”

The little fellow perched on her shoulder clearly had no idea what she was talking about. It simply wiggled its round body enthusiastically and chirped away, serving as an adorable cheerleader.

Pointing toward the display screen, Miao Yunyou continued her explanation.

“If the three symbols are all different, a capsule from the large compartment will automatically drop into the collection slot below, and you can take it yourself.

However, if you’re incredibly lucky and roll three identical symbols, that means you’ve won the Lucky Prize. In that case, the capsule that drops out will come from the small compartment.”

“Inside every capsule is an exclusive fragrance sachet made by our resort. Each one contains a blessing slip, and we hope they will bring everyone good fortune and happiness.”

“But the difference is that capsules from the small compartment may also randomly contain special gifts such as vouchers and other surprises. Everything depends on luck.”

A sachet?

The resort had sold fragrance sachets as merchandise before, and they were known for being quite beautifully made.

At this point, Miao Yunyou revealed a playful smile.

“Oh, and besides that, anyone who wins the Lucky Prize will also receive an additional gift—

‘The Blessing of the Immortal Kitty.'”

The novel and unusual gameplay instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the crowd.

Everyone clicked their tongues in amazement, and expectations soared.

Someone in the audience immediately shouted excitedly,

“Boss! What exactly is the Immortal Kitty’s Blessing? Can you give us a hint beforehand?”

Miao Yunyou smiled gently and deliberately maintained the mystery.

“Well… it’s difficult for me to explain.

If someone manages to roll three identical symbols later, you’ll understand what I mean.

Alright, you can all enjoy yourselves now.

I’m going off to take my afternoon nap.”

Immediately, another tourist anxiously called out,

“Wait, Boss Miao!

Do only hotel guests get lucky coins?

We couldn’t book a room, but we want to play too! How can we buy them separately?”

Miao Yunyou had only taken two steps before immediately stopping and turning back.

She turned so quickly that she nearly flung the little phoenix off her shoulder.

Dizzily, the tiny bird hurriedly wrapped its wings around her neck, clinging to her for dear life in a picture of complete dependence.

As she gently patted the little phoenix on her shoulder with one hand to comfort it, Miao Yunyou explained,

“Oops, sorry, sorry—I forgot to mention that.

Lucky coins can also be purchased directly from the shop next door.

They’re priced at 59.9 yuan each, and each visitor is limited to two coins.

Please buy according to your needs.”

At a tourist attraction, that price wasn’t considered expensive.

Besides—

This was a capsule machine that stood an entire four stories tall!

Where else could anyone find something like that?

Not to mention that everyone was desperately curious about what exactly the so-called “Immortal Kitty’s Blessing” was.

And as the saying goes—

Since you’ve already come all this way…

Every tourist present was eager to give it a try.

Under the guidance of the staff, lines had already begun to form. 🐈🎲🎁🐦
