When Yan Zhenshen came back, he heard the dog barking in the backyard. He put down the eggs and went back to his room. When he saw no one, he went to the backyard.

As soon as I entered the backyard, I saw Chu Xiao sitting next to Taxue, touching her again and again. Taxue made a humming sound in his throat.

"It likes you very much." Yan Zhenshen said.

"Yeah. I know." Chu Xiao raised his neck with some pride: "Many small animals like me."

"He used to be very brave." Yan Zhenshen also squatted down and touched Taxue's head. Taxue felt the arrival of his master and kept nodding Yan Zhenshen's hand with his head.

"Do you want him to live?" Chu Xiao said, "I can save him."

Yan Zhenshen stared into Chu Xiao's eyes, and after a while he said slowly, "What's the point of living in such pain?"

His voice was light, but it concealed reluctance, as if he was struggling.

Chu Xiao reached out and grabbed the man's collar and pulled him towards himself. His lips brushed against the corner of his mouth, and then he smiled: "I want to save him."

The sound is crisp, like a drop of water falling into a lake in summer, causing a few ripples.

"Taxue is old. I don't want him to live like this."

Chu Xiao paused for a moment while grabbing the man's collar, then moved his hand to the side of the man's face, "You can't bear to part with it."

Yan Zhenshen did not deny it: "Well, it was the dog that accompanied me when I first went up the mountain. It stayed with me for five years. The old hunter said that this kind of long-haired dog has a large physique, good endurance, and a long life. I thought it could accompany me for a long time..."

The man's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his big hands gently stroked Taxue's head, "It was because I was too aggressive that it got hurt so badly."

Taxue seemed to understand Yan Zhenshen's words. It stretched out its tongue and gently licked the palm of his hand, making an anxious whimpering sound in its throat, as if it was comforting this human being who had followed it since childhood.

Chu Xiao didn't want to waste time. If he wanted to save Taxue, he had to go to the mountain. If he absorbed the vitality of the plants in the backyard, those vegetables would probably wither in an instant.

He stood up and wanted to hug Taxue, but he overestimated his strength and underestimated the weight of the big dog. Although Taxue had lost a lot of weight now, he couldn't just hug him.

Not only did he not pick him up, he also sat down on the ground with his butt. There was a small stone under his butt, which hit him and made him scream. This also scared Dahuang and Dahei so much that they kept barking.

Yan Zhenshen didn't expect that this man would suddenly hug Taxue. Taxue's weight was as heavy as a boy. When he saw his husband fall, he hurried to help him up, "Where did you hurt?"

"My butt was hit by a rock." Chu Xiao was almost in tears.

Chu Xiao was not a reserved person. He said it hurt wherever it hurt and never thought there was anything wrong in saying "my butt" in front of a man.

Yan Zhenshen was stunned by these words. His butt hurt, what could he do? He didn't dare to look at it or rub it, and his face turned red.

Zhao Guizhi, who was cleaning up in the kitchen, suddenly heard the shout and quickly ran to the backyard, wondering if she had been bitten by a dog.

When he got to the backyard, he saw his eldest son putting his hand in front of the younger brother's buttocks, as if he was about to spank him. He quickly shouted, "Big brother, what are you doing?"

He walked over a few steps and pushed Yan Zhenshen away, then pulled Chu Xiao to look left and right: "Hey, Xiao brother, did he hit you?"

Zhao Guizhi was unwilling to believe that her husband would be beaten, but she saw it with her own eyes, so how could she fake it?

If it got out that her son started beating people up as soon as his husband got married, she would not be able to afford the shame.

"Why did you hit your husband for no reason? Why can't you just talk it out? You're a grown-up, why are you still..."

Zhao Guizhi couldn't continue talking. She was so angry that she slapped Yan Zhenshen.

Yan Zhenshen didn't hide, but just looked at Chu Xiao. Chu Xiao not only didn't explain, but was also laughing secretly.

"Mom, stop hitting me. Doesn't your hand hurt?" Yan Zhenshen didn't feel any pain from being beaten. Although his mother worked on weekdays, she was a woman after all. How could she have any strength?

"Hiss, you are out of tune." Zhao Guizhi's hand was indeed a little painful: "That's how you use your strength. Who taught you to fight with your husband?"

Yan Zhenshen was not angry at being misunderstood. He thought that his mother cared about his husband and he was very happy.

"Mom, big brother didn't hit Ge Fulang. Ge Fulang was trying to hold Taxue, but he couldn't lift him up, so he fell on his butt and was hit by a rock. Big brother was just rubbing his butt." Yan Zhenbei pulled his mother's clothes to explain for his big brother.

Zhao Guizhi patted Yan Zhenbei awkwardly. What was he saying? What was he talking about? How could he talk like that in front of the young man?

"Brother Xiao, are you hurt?" Zhao Guizhi didn't think there was anything wrong with misunderstanding her son. Even if he didn't hit him, he couldn't touch his butt in broad daylight.

Chu Xiao shook his head: "It's okay, Mom. It just hurt for a moment, but it doesn't hurt now." This little pain is nothing. It's far from being struck by lightning.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Zhao Guizhi rolled her eyes at Yan Zhenshen and said to Chu Xiao, "Mom will go cook. I will stew pork bones for you later to nourish you."

"Thank you, mother." Chu Xiao responded with a smile.

Zhao Guizhi was about to go back to the front yard, but then she thought of something and turned back and said, "Next time if you want to hold the dog, let the eldest brother do it. The snow is very heavy, be careful not to hurt your waist."

Chu Xiao grinned: "Okay."

When Zhao Guizhi returned to the front yard, Chu Xiao put his hands behind his back and signaled with his eyes that Yan Zhenshen should go and pick up Taxue. The mistress of the house had spoken.

Yan Zhenshen smiled helplessly. His husband's proud little expression was really adorable.

She resigned herself to her fate, picked up Taxue and followed her husband to the back mountain.

When they reached the back mountain, Chu Xiao found a spot with lush trees and asked Yan Zhenshen to put down the Taxue.

Then he closed his eyes, stretched out his right hand, and the leaves rustled without wind.

Yan Zhenshen just watched the little green dots of light slowly gather in Chu Xiao's palm. He was a little dumbfounded. It seemed that he still didn't know his husband well enough. What kind of strange world did this man live in? How many secrets did he have?

As the ball of light grew larger, Chu Xiao closed his palms, and the green light gradually disappeared. He then placed his hand on Taxue's furry head and transferred the transformed vitality into Taxue's body bit by bit.

"Woof." Taxue felt his body getting warm, and he raised his head and barked.

This time Chu Xiao did not use up all of his mental strength. Although he felt a little weak, he was not in too much pain. Seeing that Taxue had regained his energy, he touched him happily.

But before he could be happy for too long, a dark cloud appeared in the clear sky, followed by a bolt of lightning that struck Chu Xiao straight away.

Seeing that the situation was not going well, Chu Xiao quickly sprouted a vine, wrapped up Taxue beside him, and threw him out.

No one expected such a sudden change. Yan Zhenshen wanted to protect Chu Xiao, but was hit by the snow thrown at him. The man and the dog rolled directly down the hillside.

Chu Xiao had no time to dodge and was hit hard.

This time there was no burning pain, but my whole body was numb, my hair was a mess, and there was still a crackling sound in my ears.

Chu Xiao felt that the dish must be crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and he could just sprinkle some seasoning on it and serve it directly on the table.

He looked up at the sky and saw that the dark clouds had dispersed. He couldn't understand what he had done to deserve being struck by the sword.

"Woo, woo, I hit the wrong one," a child's voice popped up in his head.

Chu Xiao looked around in surprise: "Who?"

"I'm sorry, time and space man, my coordinates are deviated, causing you to suffer an unexpected disaster, but you have the power of thunder and lightning, so I won't harm you. Enjoy your life. Goodbye." The child's voice sounded again.

Chu Xiao was a little angry. He said that if he made a mistake, he should just apologize and that was it. He roared, "What the hell, come out if you have the guts."

But no matter how he shouted, the voice never appeared again.
