After crossing over: kidnapping a female hunter to be the stepfather of the three cubs

After picking the herbs, he turned around and returned to where Brother Tai was resting. At this time, Brother Tai had also rested well and was looking at the direction where Zhao Huanxi was picking herbs, bored.

Zhao Huanxi quickly walked up to Tai Ge and touched his big head, then said to him, "Tai Ge, I found it. Let's go back."

The green snake behind him spit out its tongue: "Immortal, where are you going? Can you take me with you?"

Zhao Huanxi then realized that he had forgotten there was a green snake. However, this big snake, as thick as a bowl, was really scary. He had even promised it to absorb his "yang energy". What should he do?

So he had no choice but to plead with Brother Tai: "Uncle Tai, look at this..."

Brother Tai shook his tail impatiently and glanced at the big green snake.

"Then you will be my little brother from now on. I can let you share my joy." Brother Tai was too lazy to argue.

Zhao Huanxi was delighted to see Brother Tai being so open-minded, so she hugged his big head and gave him a big kiss.

"Brother Tai, I really like you so much." Zhao Huanxi was not lying. Having such a sensible big cat that can carry her on its back when walking is a blessing that others cannot even ask for.

She was lucky enough to meet Brother Tai. Although she was scared to death when they first met, she felt so comfortable having such a handsome tiger as a friend. From now on, she can walk sideways in this mountain forest without any problem.

"Little green snake, do you have a name?" The green snake asked with a question mark in his head. What is a name?

"I don't know what a name is."

"It's just a name. For example, I call this big tiger Taige, and Taige is its name."

Zhao Huanxi was carrying a backpack, and Tai Ge was walking slowly, with a big green snake crawling under his feet.

"I didn't." The green snake spit out its tongue as it walked.

"Then I'll give you a name, Xiaoqing, how about that?"

Zhao Huanxi recalled the story of two fairies from Qingcheng Mountain in Chengdu who flooded Jiangsu for a man from Zhejiang.

What a childhood memory.

"Well, the name given by the immortal must be good." Xiaoqing followed the man and the tiger with her tongue out.

Zhao Huanxi followed Brother Tai for a long time and came to the edge of the pond. Xiaoqing found a thick branch and climbed up. The color of its snake skin blended in cleverly with the branch. If you didn't look closely, you couldn't tell there was a snake there.

Brother Tai leaned over the pond and drank two sips of water. He knew yesterday that Huanxi wouldn't let him follow her to the village, so he could only follow her here at most.

"Fairy, will you come tomorrow?" Xiaoqing's voice came from the treetops.

Zhao Huanxi turned around and warned them, "Don't go into the village. If you see any humans other than me, don't show up. Do you understand?"

Taige swung his tail in disdain: "Tsk, this king is not afraid."

Zhao Huanxi walked forward and pinched its big ears. "I'm afraid that people will find out that I can talk to you and burn me like a madman. Then you won't be able to absorb my yang energy anymore."

Brother Tai didn’t understand why humans would do this, but he thought what Huanxi said was probably the truth, so he rolled his eyes at Zhao Huanxi and turned around to prepare to enter the jungle.

Zhao Huanxi burst out laughing, thinking to himself, what a tsundere. But interacting with animals was just so much more pleasant than interacting with humans.

"Then I'm leaving. Brother Tai, stop fighting all the time. And help me take good care of Xiaoqing. I'll bring you something delicious next time."

"My lord, I will definitely follow Immortal Tiger well." Xiaoqing wrapped herself around the tree, blinking her two little eyes at Zhao Huanxi.

With a wave of his hand, Zhao Huanxi left the pond and headed home carrying the mysterious herbs he had dug this time.

On the way back, I would cut the weeds on the road with a sickle and put them into my backpack to avoid having an empty basket and attracting attention.

Pack some things, and if anyone asks, just say you went to cut grass for the chickens, just in case.

It was almost one or two in the afternoon, so I could get off work early today and see what the kids had for lunch at home.

Zhao Huanxi's home was very close to the entrance to the forest, on a relatively high point in the village. From his home, he could see a little of most of the houses in the village, and even heard a few dogs barking in the distance.

Unfortunately, Zhao Huanxi couldn't hear what the dogs were saying, and was a little confused.

Why could he hear the thoughts of the tiger and the green snake, but not the voices of the livestock at home? And what was the fragrance on his body? With these questions in mind, Zhao Huanxi had already reached the door of his house.

"Hey kids, I'm back~"

Zhao Huanxi entered the yard, put down the backpack, and called the children, but unfortunately there was no response from the family.

Walking into the kitchen, I found it was still as clean as it was that morning, with no signs of anyone having been in. I then walked into the bedroom, which was also tidy.

Did the children go out to cut grass for the chickens? Zhao Huanxi thought.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. When I went out, I saw that it was the neighbor who went to borrow the clay pot that day.

"Zhao girl, you're back?"

The person who spoke was a middle-aged woman with some gray hair. Her surname seemed to be Jiang. She was the wife of Uncle Li Hai next door. She had divorced Lu Feng that day, and Zhao Huanxi had been hiding behind her.

"Auntie Jiang, is there something wrong? Oh, I forgot to return the clay pot to your family!" Zhao Huanxi slapped his forehead. He had boiled medicine that day and forgot to return the clay pot to the Li family.

"I'm not here to talk to you about the casserole. Your three girls just went to Old Second Lu's house and haven't come back yet."

"Ah? Aunt Jiang, please tell me quickly what happened. My three girls are very sensible and they will have to run to my mother to check their mouths." Zhao Huanxi hurriedly walked closer and looked at Aunt Jiang anxiously.

"Yesterday, the eldest son of the Lu family said he had sneaked into town to pay back his gambling debts, but today he nonchalantly said he had made a fortune and wanted to take the three girls with him to enjoy a good life."

"What a blessing! These three kids now have my surname Zhao instead of Lu Feng's. How shameless of him to have that." Zhao Huanxi wanted to chop people. He always felt that Lu Feng was up to no good.

He then asked Aunt Jiang, "Are those three children with my mother now? Aunt Jiang, thank you very much. I will go to your house to thank you when I come back. I have to go and find my children." After saying that, he hurried to Lu Laoer's house in the village without even having time to lock the gate of the courtyard.

Before I even got there, I saw a lot of people watching the fun on the road.

"Did that Lu family kid really make a lot of money? His clothes look pretty expensive to me."

"I think he probably won some money at the gambling den and came back to show off." "How dare he go to the gambling den after being beaten like that?"

"Who knows? The eldest son of the Lu family has been naughty since he was a child. You know that."

Everyone was talking at once, and Zhao Huanxi only listened to the general idea. She just wanted to find the three children as soon as possible and take them home.

Squeezing into the crowd, Zhao Huanxi saw Lu Feng, who was dressed in brocade and pretending to fan himself with a folding fan. Old Master Lu was smoking a pipe beside him, and Old Lady Tian was protecting several children.

Lu Lao Er stood in front of Lu Feng and loudly accused Lu Feng.

"Brother, you haven't made any progress these years, and I've never said a single thing against you. You've repeatedly asked my parents for money, and my wife and I haven't complained at all. You gambled in the gambling house, opened the ancestral hall, and got beaten. Why can't you just be more content?"

Every word Lu Lin said was heartbreaking, and he used a lot of strength to finish this sentence.

"Humph, that's all owed to me by these two old guys. Let me tell you, just because I call you brother, don't think you're a piece of cake, Lu Lin. You're just like these two old guys, a hypocrite!"

Lu Feng waved his fan, pretending that there was nothing wrong with his butt. Zhao Huanxi could sense it; every time he waved his fan, the corners of his mouth trembled imperceptibly, and the cold sweat on his forehead also betrayed Lu Feng.
