The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

When the Qilin was saddened by Pipi's departure, the purple fox and Linghu Zi from the mountains came to the deer man's shop to ask for help in getting through the transformation ceremony.

If a purple fox wants to transform into human form, it must perform a ritual with a human skull on its head during the Big Dipper constellation. If the skull does not fall off, it will successfully transform.

However, Linghu Zi's skull would fall off every time she performed the ritual. Therefore, she came to ask for help this time.

However, the skull she held actually belonged to a monkey. Therefore, although she successfully completed the transformation with the help of Mimi, she turned into a strange lemur.

"Why does this script have to be so similar to my own experiences? Do I have to act out my embarrassing past myself?" Linghu Zi looked at the script she had just received with a look of doubt.

Meimei patted her reassuringly: "That's just how the director is, you'll get used to it. Our show is a huge black mark on our history, isn't it?"

"Ah? Those mythical beasts too..."

"Correct."

Linghu Zi was speechless. For the first time ever, she suddenly wanted to see what this daringly made drama was all about.

"Why is the director putting everything into the script? Isn't he afraid of offending mythical creatures?"

A bead of sweat trickled down Meimei's forehead as she awkwardly opened her mouth and said, "There's really nothing to be afraid of."

Of course, this kind of thing will cause mythical beasts to rebel, like the War Tiger back then.

However, Puss in Boots had a great start, with a group of easy-to-handle mythical creatures, and the new members who came in were outnumbered!

—We've all come to this point, so since you've joined in, you can't be an exception!

Thus, every new member went through the process of resisting them, being defeated by them, compromising with them, understanding them, and joining them!

After hearing the explanation, Linghu Zi fell into deep thought...

In other words, if I don't agree, I either have to back out or be forced to agree by a bunch of mythical beasts.

After much deliberation, she finally agreed.

"It's just that I've never acted before, I have no experience."

"It's okay, I'll take care of it. The director has arranged it, and I'll teach you. I heard you also want to learn shapeshifting, and I'll teach you that too, but our approaches might be different."

Meimei was sweeping the room when she looked up and talked to Linghu Zi.

The two of them were paired up by fans who ship them as a couple. They looked beautiful, and their task every morning was to mentor new recruits. If they did a good job, they would get a bonus.

"Then I'll leave it to you." Linghu Zi nodded slightly, then, seeing Meimei idly sweeping the house by herself, she went over as well.

"Let me help you. I'm sorry to trouble you. You can ask me for help if you need anything in the future."

Outside.

The two executives of the production team stood together, Puss in Boots stopped halfway with his paw raised, and the maternal smile on his face could not be hidden.

"Are you introducing a potential partner to my relative?" Xiaohang asked.

"Ahem, I guess so?"

……

A few days later, under Meimei's guidance, Linghu Zi's acting skills have improved significantly. She may not be able to play other people, but she is good enough to play herself well on camera.

this day.

The film set was bustling with noise, and busy staff members were moving back and forth. Meimei and Linghu Zi were whispering to each other in the distance, pointing at the four Pixiu with their paws.

"See that? That's our production's financial backer, the one in gold. The one in red and blue is his brother. They play the most important roles."

"Mmm." Linghu Zi nodded seriously, then asked in confusion, "What about the black one?"

“That’s seventy-seven, oh. The one with the blue head.” Meimei lowered her voice further.

Linghu Zi was shocked: "You already have a child? Who is his mother?"

"I don't know. Their relationship was revealed by him when the crew experienced a mudslide a couple of days ago."

"However, many beasts speculate that it is the Qilin that brought them here, the Qilin that is the one that is not the same as the four-legged creature."

The two foxes whispered among themselves, discussing the condition of the four Pixiu. Their soft voices drifted away on the wind.

the other side.

Seventy-seven walked around the film set she was visiting for the first time, looking around curiously. Suddenly, her ears twitched and she turned to look at them, her little face hesitant.

The three brothers led him forward, their faces buried in their hands. Tianlu endured it again and again, but finally, with the divine beast's keen hearing, he could no longer bear it and turned around to roar!

"If you two keep talking nonsense, I'll eat you up!!"

"Hey, sorry, Brother Pipi! We shouldn't have been talking like that, let's go!"

Meimei was startled and hurriedly pulled Linghu Zi away, leaving Tianlu glaring at their backs angrily. The two foxes felt like they were being pricked by thorns and ran even faster.

"Haha~ Are they really that terrifying, always talking about eating beasts?"

Far away.

Linghu Zi, slightly out of breath, raised her face and turned to look at the red fox with a confused expression.

Meimei, still shaken, explained to her, "It's not what you think. Actually, they're quite nice."

Of the four Pixiu, Baijie and Qishiqi are both good-tempered, while Tianlu is a bit irritable but still very good.

As for warding off evil spirits... his personality has improved a lot by now. If this can still irritate him, then he can only pray for good luck.

Let's go back to the Pixiu.

After the two foxes left, the Pixiu went to their designated spots, enduring the probing gazes of the other beasts on the film crew along the way. Tianlu simply glared at them, sending them flying.

They lay down on the soft mat, and Seventy-Seven hesitated before tugging at Tianlu in a low voice: "Is it really okay to intimidate people like this?"

The three brothers turned to look at him. Tianlu was stunned for a moment, then his little face hardened: "Seventy-seven, we have to be fierce so that we don't seem like we're to be messed with, otherwise we'll get bullied!"

“Like me.” He proudly patted his hairy chest: “Nobody in the group dares to mess with me.”

After saying that, he pouted and pointed at Bai Jie with his paw: "Bai Jie is just too good-tempered. Even now, he still needs me and Bixie to protect him, otherwise he will be bullied by others."

"This...this can't be my fault, right?" Bai Jie weakly retorted, but this time, he was the one who was ignored.

Tianlu was teaching Qishiqi seriously, and only Bixie patted him comfortingly: "I am your older brother, I will protect you."

Having received Tianlu's instruction, Seventy-Seven's little face showed a thoughtful expression, but then Gray Hat hesitated: "But I still feel that this is not a good idea..."

"Well... never mind, I'll protect you! If anyone bullies you, tell me, and I'll catch them and make them my extra meal!"

Tianlu felt helpless for a moment, but still patted his chest and made a bold promise!

Seventy-seven's eyes flickered, she gently pursed her lips, and then said with emotion, "Thank you! Um... Dad?"

"Uh, just call me by my name." Tianlu still couldn't get used to being called "Dad," and the hairs on the back of his head stood on end!

Afterwards, they huddled together for a while longer. Tianlu and Baijie were called away by Puss in Boots to film a movie, leaving the two idle Pixiu lying in place.

A cool breeze gently blew against them, making a whistling sound, and the air nearby carried a faint sound of filming from afar, adding a touch of early spring chill.

Bixie was already used to it; he did this almost every time. When his younger brother went to film a movie, he would lie down and wait outside the set.

Although Seventy-Seven was relatively calm, it wasn't long before she couldn't resist her restless nature and looked around aimlessly. Finally, she hesitated and asked Bixie in a low voice, "Can I go out and play by myself?"

“Okay, go and make more friends.” Pixie looked at him gently, tilting his head. Seventy-Seven’s face lit up with joy and he immediately agreed: “Okay, I’ll go then, Pixie.”

Before the words were finished, the small figure got up and ran away. Bixie quietly lay in the shop for a while longer, and only followed quietly after the figure had almost disappeared.

Along the way, Seventy-Seven trotted happily, its black, fluffy tail wagging faster, greeting every beast it encountered.

Everyone knew him and gave him a friendly welcome. However, after only a few steps, some sharp-eyed people spotted a talisman belonging to his nephew, who had tried to hide in the shadows but failed!

Then they received a cold look and the words: "Don't talk nonsense, or I'll eat you up."

The beasts: “…”

—What an undeserved disaster!

"Hey, Feifei, hello there."

Seventy-seven was walking briskly with a cheerful mood when, as she opened her squinting gray eyes, a familiar white figure entered her field of vision.

He was pleasantly surprised to finally encounter a familiar beast.

"Meow?" Fei Fei turned around at the sound and was stunned when she saw Seventy-Seven running towards her from behind.

The cute little black Pixiu came to her and quietly squatted down, its gray eyes shining slightly as it stared at her with curiosity in them.

And there's only one!

— Pixiu, cute, easy to fool, and the two that are guarding against you aren't even nearby!

Within seconds, Fei Fei understood the situation and her eyes lit up: "Seventy-seven? Why are you guarding this place alone?"

"Tianlu and Baijie went to film a movie, so I came out to play by myself."

Feifei's eyes lit up again.

"Since the evil spirit has agreed, I'll come out."

Feifei's eyes lit up for the third time; the twinkling lights were practically a perfect rendition of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"!

"Ahem! Little Qiqi, would you like to come with your older sister...?"

Before she could finish speaking, Fei Fei suddenly felt as if something was stuck in her throat, as if she were sitting on pins and needles, as if she were facing a formidable enemy!

She suddenly looked up! Then she saw the shadows of the trees and the eerie, unseen eyes of the demon staring at her!
