The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

It was noon.

Filming location for the Caiyun Mountains movie crew.

The aroma of food filled the air as the actors enjoyed their meals during their lunch break.

Bixie took out his lunchbox and ate chicken stew with mushrooms with Tianlu. Rabbit Lord cooked noodles with soybean paste for the Four-Unlikes. Golden Horn and Silver Horn shared the melon seeds and nuts they had brought in advance.

They ate and chatted, appearing to be enjoying themselves immensely.

not far away,

Qiongqi, all alone, hurriedly ate a couple of bites of food and then picked up the script next to him and buried himself in memorizing it.

Looking at those densely packed small characters, I suddenly seemed to recall the time when I first received this script.

"Here, this is for you."

"What is this, a script?"

"No, these are your lines, remember to memorize them all."

"Huh?! It's so thick! Everyone else's is just a few pages, how come mine is such a thick book!"

"Because your character is supposed to be a chatterbox, so hurry up and memorize it, you'll have a lot of scenes later on."

Looking at the entire book of lines he had to memorize, Qiongqi's claws trembled slightly as he gradually put on a mask of pain.

Back to now,

As Qiongqi carried it, a sudden feeling of sadness arose within him.

He looked up and saw a group of beasts chatting and laughing over there, while looking down at the scripts in their paws.

A tear of sorrow rolled down her cheek.

Ferocious beasts don't easily shed tears unless there's no one around to watch.

I've already worked so hard, what's wrong with crying a couple of times?!

Just as Qiongqi was crying while reciting his lines, on the other side...

Tianlu lay comfortably, having eaten and drunk his fill. He subconsciously reached for his phone, intending to call Baijie Bixie to play games together, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he remembered that Baijie had gone to school, so he changed what he said.

“Bixie, how’s the food at school? I saw online that the food in the school cafeteria is usually terrible.”

Bixie put away the lunchbox and replied.

"It's alright, I had Xiaoyun bring Baijie some food."

"Oh oh oh!"

Tianlu suddenly realized that Bixie had thought of many things.

The scene shifts to a school.

Bai Jie stared at the lunchbox in front of him, which was taller than him when he stood up, and fell into deep thought.

Is there some misunderstanding about my appetite? You should give this to Tianlu, right?

"Mwah... Mwah, Bai Jie's brother is so kind, he brought so much food."

Walnut, who hadn't had lunch yet, stared in disbelief at the lunchbox on the table.

Upon hearing this, Bai Jie turned to look at him.

"Doesn't Walnut's family send lunch over?"

Walnut replied matter-of-factly, "The food in the cafeteria is delicious, so Mom doesn't bring me any food."

Bai Jie was stunned for a moment, but after thinking about it, he understood.

Given the Xie Zhi's personality, if the school dared to cut corners on the food, the principal would probably be in serious trouble the next day.

"Then eat these walnuts with me. I, as a beast, can't finish all of them."

Bai Jie put aside some strange ideas and extended an invitation.

Walnut nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.

"Okay, okay, but we can't finish all the walnuts. I'll go and call some other kids so we can play house together."

Bai Jie hesitated for a moment. In the end, he agreed.

Shortly after,

In a corner of the playground,

A camping blanket was laid on the ground, and Bai Jie, Walnut, Elephant Nini, a person, and a squirrel sat on it. The two newcomers were both girls.

"Hey! Let's play house! We're a family on a picnic. Walnut is the dad, Bai Jie is the mom, and the rest are daughters."

Walnut, as the initiator, excitedly raised his paw to announce.

Bai Jie, who was disassembling the lunchbox layer by layer, looked up in bewilderment. He seemed to doubt his hearing and rubbed his ears, looking at Walnut with a "damn it" expression.

That look in her eyes clearly said: Are you serious? Of the three girls present, you're asking me, a guy, to be your mother?

Walnut clearly couldn't understand the complicated look in his new deskmate's eyes. He put down his paws and looked on expectantly with shining eyes.

"Bai Jie, Bai Jie, the walnuts are hungry, hurry up and serve them food."

Bai Jie grinned, deciding not to delve into the matter further since the walnuts were so cute and he wasn't at a loss.

He picked up the disassembled lunchboxes and distributed them.

Hahaha, here comes the chicken soup for the soul!

The pangolin's lines inexplicably came to mind, and I chuckled to myself, a smile spreading across my face.

At this time,

The three little monsters happened to be passing by nearby. When they saw the scene, Little Qiongqi snorted disdainfully.

"They're still playing such childish games like house with that crybaby. It seems the new guy isn't all that great except for being rich. I'll see how I handle him and turn him into our ATM."

Little Taotie turned to look at his ambitious brother and asked a question.

"Can you get past the discipline committee member and the teacher?"

Little Qiongqi fell silent.

Seemingly having overheard the loud conspiracy, Xiang Nini glanced over and glared at them.

Little Qiongqi instinctively shrank his neck, then said angrily.

"Hmph, let's go!"

After saying that, he turned and led the way away.

At this moment,

Bai Jie opened the lunchbox, and a gentle breeze blew in, carrying the aroma of chicken mixed with mushrooms. Xiao Tao Tao and Xiao Tao Wu immediately stopped in their tracks.

"Let me tell you, these beasts that are hundreds of years old and still playing house will only ever amount to this; they'll never amount to anything."

"Only beasts like me, who at such a young age have grasped the essence of the world, are capable of great things,"

"Hey, are you guys even listening to me?"

Little Qiongqi noticed a slight movement nearby and turned around without suspicion.

"Hey, where's the beast?"

He looked around for a while, and when he turned around, he saw that Little Peach and Little Taotie had somehow sat down next to the group of kids playing house.

"Count me in, I want one too."

"Ooooooo!"

"Hey! You two, come back here! We're on the same side! All these years of brotherhood aren't even worth a meal!"

Bai Jie handed out lunchboxes to the two newcomers, then turned to greet the shouting, impotent, and furious Little Qiongqi.

"Come on over, let's be friends."

"Who wants to be your friend?! If anyone's going to be your friend, it'll be me, your boss, okay?!"

"Two traitors! I'm not as spineless as you. Even if I'm all alone, I'd rather die than eat a single bite of your food!"

After roaring, Little Qiongqi turned around, head held high, chest puffed out, and strode away.

Upon seeing this, Bai Jie curled his lip.

If we can't be friends, then I'll just have to go back to being your uncle, since your dad and I are of the same generation.

But speaking of which, did this guy just make a promise?

Shortly after,

Little Qiongqi walked back fiercely and sat down hard.

"I only came back because of brotherhood, it has nothing to do with you guys!"

He stubbornly insisted on his point.

After listening, Bai Jie nodded and then grinned as he handed over a lunchbox.

Little Qiongqi was silent for two seconds, then quietly took it and tasted it.

Really fragrant.

in the afternoon,

The sky was a clear, bright blue, but the city streets were congested during the evening rush hour.

School Office

The entrance was bustling with noise as parents waited for their children to come out and chatted with each other.

Two white clouds descended from the sky. When they were halfway down, one of them shook and crashed to the ground!

"Ugh! What... what is this, Broken Cloud?! My brain is about to be shaken out."

Qiongqi staggered to its feet, one claw covering its mouth and the other supporting itself on the ground, seemingly on the verge of collapsing.

Tianlu struggled to crawl out from under him, his mind reeling and he didn't even have the energy to argue.

"Are you two okay?"

Bixie rode Xiaoyun down to the two beasts, his expression showing helplessness.

"What could possibly be wrong with me?"

Qiongqi shook his head as he spoke, then looked up and saw everyone around him staring at him. He glared at them.

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a plane crash before?!"

The crowd instinctively looked away after being yelled at, but one guy headed straight for them.

Tao Tao, who came to pick up her son from school, jumped next to Qiongqi and then looked him over and clicked her tongue.

"What happened? Why are you all covered in dust and dirt?"

"I want you to take care"

The screen turned,

Bai Jie and He Tao walked out of the school gate together.

"Hey, goodbye Bai Jie, Walnut's leaving now."

Walnut waved its paw, turned and ran towards a nearby adult Mengji with yellow pupils and a weak expression.

"Goodbye."

Bai Jie also waved goodbye, glancing at the adult Meng Ji.

Oleander, my impression of this guy seems to be that he's just a weakling. But speaking of which, why didn't Cotton Peach come?

Forget it, let's find Tianlu Bixie first.

"Moo! Uncle!"

Walnut jumped up and pounced.

Oleander caught it in a flurry of activity.

"Uncle, where's Mom? Why didn't she come?"

Walnut raised its head, looking around, as Oleander explained.

"My older sister was busy and couldn't come. Did Walnut have a good day at school?"

"I'm so happy, I made a new friend today."

Walnut raised its claws and cried out.

Meanwhile, on the other side,

Bai Jie came to Tianlu Bixie's side, where the three little fierce beasts were also present. At this moment, Xiao Qiongqi had an expression as if the sky had fallen, and Bai Jie was suppressing a laugh as he looked at him.

"So, how about we become friends or I'll call you 'Uncle'?"

"Dad! Tell me this isn't true, he's just the child of those two mythical creatures!"

The little Qiongqi, who was at a disadvantage in terms of seniority for the first time, found it hard to accept and turned to his father for help.

Ten years old! This kid is only ten years old! And I have to call him uncle!

Looking into his son's expectant eyes, Qiongqi hesitated for two seconds.

"Son, this is the truth, and there's nothing your old man can do about it."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Qiongqi turned around stiffly and noticed that Bai Jie's face had darkened somewhat.

"How about I become your uncle instead?"

"Hey, no, no, no! From now on, we're brothers. Don't be shy. Let's eat and drink well together. If anyone dares to bully you, just tell me, and I'll teach them a lesson!"

Little Qiongqi put his arm around Baijie's shoulder, a genuine smile on his face.

Bai Jie feels like being pressed against a small stove; the waves of warmth are quite comforting, even in the dead of winter.

His expression softened a bit, and he grunted twice as if to accept the criticism.

"Speaking of which, isn't there also a Taotie? Why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Clearly, Bai Jie was curious about this question, and Tianlu Bixie cast a curious glance at him.

Little Qiongqi immediately explained to his newly recognized brother the story of Taotie being torn apart by five horses and imprisoned.

After listening, Bai Jie was speechless.

No wonder the Taotie appeared so late in the adult form in the original work, and it was only a head left. So that's why.

So where do you live now?

It looks like a small Taotie.

"I……"

“He used to live at my aunt’s house, which is called Chaos, but recently my aunt went on a trip with her lover, so he came to live at my house.”

"Don't interrupt me!"

Little Taotie looked annoyed and punched Little Qiongqi on the head.

"Ouch! That hurts! Why did you have to resort to violence over such a small thing?"

"Fighting won't solve anything. Didn't you see what happened to your father?"

"Hey, why are you raising your fist?"

"Hey, hey, hey, don't come any closer! If you come any closer, I'll call for help!"

"Dad! Dad! Help! There's a beast attack!"
