The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".
Chapter 5 First Steps into the City
Ever since Bai Jie expressed his desire to visit a human city, Tianlu Bixie has taken Bai Jie on a journey to a human city.
However, they got lost. The main reason was that Tianlu Bixie had been away from the city for a long time and had been wandering around in the wild. This led to them not knowing where they were, let alone where the city was. But perseverance pays off. After several days of searching, they finally found a human city.
Three Pixiu (mythical creatures) walked along the busy street, attracting frequent glances from passersby.
It wasn't because they discovered these three were Pixiu; the reason they attracted so much attention was simply because they were so good-looking.
Moreover, the blue Pixiu was carrying a smaller golden Pixiu on its back, and with the red Pixiu beside it, instantly, the feeling of a family of three came over you.
If smartphones weren't so widespread yet, this scene would have gone viral on social media.
"Tianlu, what are we going to do next?" After walking for a while, Baijie couldn't hold back any longer and asked: We've been walking for half a day and we still don't know what we're going to do. Why don't you tell us what we're going to do next?
"Uh, I don't know." Tianlu indicated that he didn't know what to do either, so he turned to Bixie and asked, "Bixie, what should we do next?" Bixie was silent for a moment and then... "I don't know."
Bai Jie was speechless: So after walking for so long, you still haven't figured out what you're going to do, huh?
Just as Bai Jie was mentally complaining about her two older brothers, an enticing aroma suddenly wafted in from somewhere.
"Sniff." Tianlu, with his most sensitive nose, was the first to notice the fragrance in the air. He subconsciously took a sniff and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"I know what to do next!" "Huh!" Bai Jie was stunned: You figured it out so quickly? This isn't like you, Tian Lu?
"Bixie, follow me." Tianlu said excitedly and ran off in the direction the fragrance was coming from.
"Huh? Oh." Tianlu's reaction was so sudden that Bixie was also stunned for a moment before reacting and hurriedly following after him.
Tianlu led Baijie Bixie through the city's alleys, turning left and right until Baijie was almost dizzy before finally managing to get out of the alley.
As soon as he came out, Bai Jie's vision cleared up. He was surprised to find himself on a food street, surrounded by the aroma of food.
Bai Jie: So Tianlu, you're hungry, right?
Bai Jie felt utterly exasperated with Tian Lu: "Is all you can think about is food?!"
Obviously, he really couldn't have imagined it. "I want to eat that!" Tianlu's mouth watered as he looked at the dazzling array of snacks on the street. He was really craving it.
"But we don't have any money." Pi Xie's words immediately dampened Tian Lu's excitement.
"Oh, how could this be?" Tianlu looked disappointed.
"Let me think of a way." Bixie also felt helpless, but he still comforted Tianlu.
Bai Jie rolled his eyes at the two beasts who were worried about money: Money! With the mountains of gold and silver and the wine and meat forest in Tianlu's belly, you're telling me you don't have any money!
Yes, that's right, it's a scene of immense wealth and luxury. Bai Jie went inside Tianlu Bixie's stomach out of curiosity and saw it. This was the scene inside Tianlu's stomach, and its extravagance almost blinded Bai Jie.
As for the inside of Bixie's stomach, it could only be described as a scene of wailing ghosts and howling wolves in the netherworld. The screams of those evil spirits were so terrible that Bai Jie felt like he was going deaf.
Bai Jie said: I almost became deaf and blind.
"Slap." Just as Bai Jie was internally complaining, a hundred-yuan bill was suddenly blown onto his face by the wind.
"What the heck?" Bai Jie took the banknote off his face, and after seeing what it was, he fell silent: The money just came to him, really, money falls from the sky.
"Hey, we have money now! Can we go buy some food?" Tianlu asked excitedly, noticing the banknotes in Baijie's hand.
"Um, I guess it's okay." Bai Jie glanced at the banknotes in his hand: He could eat, but he didn't know if 100 yuan would be enough for Tianlu Stove.
"Take a look, have a look! Five years of traditional craftsmanship, hygiene guaranteed. You won't regret eating here!" On the bustling street, a food stall owner was enthusiastically hawking his wares. However, despite his loud voice, not a single passerby stopped at his stall.
"Sigh~ It's been all morning and we haven't had a single customer. Maybe we should come back in the evening."
The food stall owner looked helplessly at the hurried passersby around him. Just as he was about to pack up and go home, a childish voice suddenly rang out: "Boss, give me ten skewers of barbecue."
Upon hearing this sound, the snack stall owner was overjoyed: he hadn't expected to make a profit before leaving.
Just as he was about to greet customers, he realized there was no one at his stall. "Am I hallucinating?"
The food stall owner looked completely bewildered. The voice came again, this time sounding rather exasperated: "Look down."
The food stall owner peeked out and saw three beasts standing in front of his carpet, but they were too short for him to see before.
"Ah, so this is where you are. What would you gentlemen like to eat?" Bai Jie: This person doesn't seem very bright.
"Anything with meat will do, a few skewers of each, please." The owner agreed enthusiastically, after all, this was the first customer of the day.
"Alright, I'll start grilling now. You guys can go sit over there for a while."
Bai Jie handed the hundred-yuan bill in his hand to the shopkeeper and took the change. Then, he asked Tianlu to lead him to the chair next to him. Then, they encountered an awkward situation. Because of their height, they could only stick half of their heads out from the edge of the table after sitting down. As for Bai Jie, he couldn't even see his head.
"Gentlemen, the grilled skewers are ready. Would you like to take them away or eat them here?" The food stall owner handed the skewers to Bai Jie and asked.
"Take it with you." Bai Jie said: What's the point of eating here? We can't even reach the table. It's too embarrassing. Let's just take it with us.
After receiving the skewers, Bai Jie couldn't wait to pull one out and take a bite. These past two days, he felt like his mouth was going to taste bland. Although his spitting-out-of-evil skills were excellent, he couldn't stand the lack of seasoning in the wild.
"Ah, it smells so good!" Bai Jie exclaimed. "Slurp, Bai Jie, I want to eat too." Seeing how much Bai Jie was enjoying his food, Tian Lu got hungry.
"Okay." Bai Jie put the skewers to Tian Lu's mouth, and Tian Lu took a big bite, breaking the skewers in the process.
"Mmm, delicious!" Bai Jie glanced at the broken half of the skewer in his hand: You... never mind, I'm used to it.
As it turned out, 100 yuan was indeed not enough for Tianlu Stove. The three beasts quickly spent the 100 yuan while strolling and eating. However, they found some more money, which shows that they are indeed Pixiu.
"Bai Jie, Bai Jie, we found money again! We can go buy food again!" Tian Lu said happily to Bai Jie, holding a wallet.
"This won't do." Bai Jie took the wallet from Tian Lu's hand, indicating that they couldn't use the money.
"Why?" Tianlu didn't understand: Isn't this all money? Why can't this be spent?
"Well, that's hard to explain. You'll understand once you spend more time in human society."
Seeing Tianlu's utter lack of common sense, Baijie had no idea how to explain, so he simply gave a perfunctory answer.
The money could be spent before because the amount was small, and losing it wouldn't have a significant impact on others, plus there was no way to find the owner.
Even if you hand it over to the police, it won't do any good. The banknotes don't have anyone's name printed on them; who knows who lost them? So spending that money is pointless.
But wallets are different. They contain a lot of money and may contain someone else's ID card. In such cases, it's essential to find the owner.
“Let’s wait here for a while,” Bai Jie said, opening his wallet and glancing inside. Good heavens, there were several thousand yuan in it. He then carefully searched through it and found his ID card inside.
Bai Jie took out his ID card and looked at it.
Name: Xu Xian
Sex: Male
Born: May 8, 1989
After reading it, Bai Jie put his ID card back and began to wait.
While waiting, the three beasts kept eating. Hmm, there were still quite a few snacks left from what they had bought earlier, so they could eat while they waited.
Not long after, Bai Jie saw a man who looked extremely similar to the photo on his ID card hurrying toward him, searching for something on the ground as he walked.
"It seems to be him." Bai Jie asked, "Did you drop this wallet?"
The man turned his head at the sound and saw the wallet in Bai Jie's hand.
"Yes, yes, yes! This is what I dropped!" the man said with delight, running over at the same time.
"Stop, what's your birthday?" Although he looked similar to the person in the photo, Bai Jie still decided to confirm it again.
"May 8, 1989," Xu Xian said without hesitation, stating his birthdate.
Bai Jie: It seems it really is this person. "Here, your wallet." Xu Xian took the wallet and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness I found it. I almost thought I'd never get it back."
