Plot[]
The story begins on a rainy night when Luo Xiao Hei, a cat spirit, is injured badly after stealing Laojun's pearl artifact. As a result, he is transformed from his humanoid form to become a black kitten. He is then saved by a young girl named Luo Xiaobai, who takes him home. Luo Xiaobai and Luo Xiao Hei become good friends and their adventure begins. They live in a world where people, spirits, and gods coexist.
Characters[]
- Luo Xiaohei: A cat spirit who was severely injured when he stole Laojun's celestial pearl, forcing him to return to his original cat form. He was picked up and adopted by Xiaobai when he was living on the street. When angry, his eyes turn green, and his pupils turn thin, yellow, and more cat-like. Luo Xiaohei's tail is split into a separate conscious body called Heixiu, which communicates telepathically with Luo Xiaohei, and can be divided infinitely. In general, it is divided into four.
- Luo Xiaobai: A ten-year-old girl taking care of Luo Xiaohei. She often spends time with her cousin Agen and her good friend Shangxin.
- Agen: Xuan Li (not claiming/defaulting to Xuan Li), Luo Xiaobai's older cousin, is also a spirit like Xiaohei, and lives in the countryside with their grandfather. He wears glasses. He can control the three states of water (even absorb fire), release a clone, and has dual spirit space.
- Diting: the main antagonist in the first few episodes and Laojun's friends, who seeks revenge against Luo Xiaohei for stealing the celestial pearl from Laojun.
- Laojun: A fictional version of Taishang Laojun, who resides over Lanxi Town in a spiritual space. He has made several vows, recording them as "Oath Records". Those who complete the vows can get prizes. For example, there is a prize for those who do something to force Laojun. One of the vows is that he must not leave Laojun Pavilion or interfere in external affairs within a hundred years, but there is a bottom line (it is said that this vow was made by Laojun's apprentice Li Qingming).
- Wuxian: Literally: Infinite. Master Wuxian instructed Luo Xiaohei to steal the Pearl of Heaven. The ability is Royal Gold, and the space system can devour it.
- Mom: Luo Xiaobai's mother, who wears a Facial mask all year round, has appeared in the TV version.
- Dad: Luo Xiaobai's dad, whose face is covered by a newspaper in every episode. His true face is unknown, and the headlines of his newspaper comment about the plot in a humorous way.
- Shanxin: Luo Xiaobai's good friend, Shushuang Ponytail, the owner of Huangshan. Shanxi is also the name of the voice actor voicing many of the characters in real life.
- Grandpa: Real name:Yunfei literally: Cloud Fly. Tucao Emperor, met Xuan Lizhen when he was young.
- Bidiu: A chamecavy, or a rabbit-like creature, with the ability to eat almost anything and turn into to colour of the food is consumed. It was captured by Agen to prevent it from eating his and Yeye's house. It reverts to its original colour in about 5 minutes. If it consumes an animal or metal, it will turn into a huge and aggressive version of itself, and you can stop the bruising pattern between the eyebrows, but the mutation is very burdensome.
- Huangshou: An ordinary gray tabby cat owned by Shanxi that has been madly sticking to Xiaohei since being rescued by him from a dog.
- Musi, Axian: Break into Laojun's enchantment because of Laojun's Oath Record (Note: they are based on the members of the Muting Club)
