The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

The morning sunlight streamed gently into the room through the crack in the door. Three beastly figures entered the bright light one after another. Just as they were about to push the door open and leave, an aged voice came from behind: "Are you leaving already? Why don't you stay a couple more days?"

The three beastly figures stopped in their tracks. The red beast turned around and said helplessly, "No, I haven't been back to the chicken farm for many days. If I don't go back soon, the chickens will rebel."

"Oh, is that so? Then you should hurry back. I won't see you off. My old bones can't handle this anymore." The old goat sighed, leaning on his cane, looking very frail.

Bai Jie pushed open the door, glancing back at the same time, and muttered to himself: Don't think I don't know you're putting on a show of suffering. If you can't handle this kind of commotion, then who was it that chased away half the sheep of Yue Tian's village with a cane the other day?

The door was wide open, and the blinding sunlight shone down. Bai Jie subconsciously squinted his eyes. After his eyes adjusted to the light, the first thing he saw was Yue Tian standing at the gate of the courtyard.

Bai Jie: Why did you just come like that? You're not Cao Cao, are you?

"Hey! You little wolf cub, you dare to come here again! I haven't settled the score with you for putting chili in my drink last time!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind. Bai Jie turned around and saw the old goat raising his cane, blowing his beard and glaring at Yue Tian, ​​looking like he had an irreconcilable hatred for him.

Bai Jie: So you were just putting on an act all along!

"Hey! Old man, don't get so excited, it's not good for your health!" Yue Tian said as she backed away, ready to run away at any moment.

"Old man, I'm in great health, you don't need to worry about me! You got away last time, but you won't be so lucky this time!" The old goat waved his cane and rushed out with great speed, and the three Pixiu at the door instantly dodged aside.

"Help! Old Sheep is killing a wolf!" Yue Tian turned and ran without hesitation, shouting strange things as he ran.

Watching the two beasts disappear around a corner, Bai Jie couldn't help but sneer, "Did Yue Tian come here specifically to be funny?"

"I don't know." Bixie shook his head decisively.

"Then, does Tianlu know?" Baijie turned his head to look at Tianlu inquiringly.

"Huh?" Tianlu was stunned. "Why are you asking me?"

"I'm not thinking that you guys are all masters of mischief, maybe you can understand his thought process."

"Huh? Did I do that?" Tianlu pointed at himself blankly, sounding completely bewildered.

Yes. x2

Bai Jie and Bi Xie nodded almost simultaneously, then they exchanged a knowing glance.

Tianlu was speechless for a moment. He thought about what had happened recently: he seemed to be, indeed, quite pretentious.

"Let's go, we should get going." Bixie closed the old goat's gate and walked out of the yard.

Led by Bixie, the three Pixiu set off for the village, but when they arrived at the village entrance, a certain persistent beast reappeared.

"Boss~" Yue Tian suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He ran towards the three Pixiu, his tail wagging so hard it looked like he was about to fly.

"Why are you here again? Did you come here specifically to ambush us? And where is Old Man Yang?!" Bai Jie grabbed Yue Tian, ​​who was trying to scoot towards Bi Xie.

"I shook off that old man. Although he's quite agile, how could he compare to me? I climbed over the wall and ran away." Yue Tian wasn't annoyed at being caught by Bai Jie; instead, he said with a grin.

"Then what do you want from us?" Bai Jie figured it out: this guy came for the three of them, well... the chances of him being the one to ward off evil are probably higher.

"I heard the three leaders are leaving, so I thought I'd go with them and find a place to stay. That way I can come visit you guys anytime." Yue Tian gripped Bai Jie's claws, his expression saying: Please grant me this request.

"Don't look at me like that, I wasn't trying to stop you." Bai Jie withdrew his paw in embarrassment: How come I didn't notice how shameless this wolf was before?

"Then... Boss?" Seeing that Bai Jie, who was the easiest to talk to, had agreed, Yue Tian turned his hopeful gaze to Bi Xie.

"Uh... you can come along if you want." Bixie looked at Yuetian, as if he had a premonition that he would have to take care of one, no, a group of troublesome guys in the future.

After taking Yue Tian with them, the three Pixiu continued their journey towards the mountain where their home was located.

During the journey, Tianlu and Yuetian, these two lively characters, quickly became friends. They chased and played around all the way, their laughter echoing from time to time.

Bai Jie and Bi Xie were traveling leisurely, which was rare for them. Normally, they would bother Tian Lu more or less when they were bored on the road, but today Yue Tian was there to play with them, so the two beasts were happy to have some peace and quiet.

Listening to the two lively characters' cheerful laughter, the group of beasts soon arrived at the mountain where the three Pixiu lived.

"Gulp, ha~ The three of you also raise chickens?" From afar, Yue Tian smelled an extremely familiar chicken coop smell, and he unconsciously swallowed and asked.

"Yeah, we have so many chickens at home, all raised to ward off evil spirits, they're especially delicious," Tianlu said boastfully, completely unaware that Yuetian's eyes were already gleaming with greed.

"Boss Bixie~ You're finally back~"

"Boss~ I missed you so much~"

"You said you'd be back soon! We all thought you'd abandoned us, boss!"

A series of joyful, tearful voices rang out, and the four beasts looked closely to see a large flock of chickens rushing over.

"Hey! Wait a minute..." Before Bixie could finish speaking, he was overwhelmed by the swarm of chickens.

Yue Tian stared in disbelief at the scene before him, while Bai Jie and Tian Lu were already used to it.

"See these? These are all raised to ward off evil spirits, and they're quite old." Bai Jie gestured towards Yue Tian with his head.

"Ah, this, this..." Yue Tian stammered, unable to utter a complete sentence. He had originally thought that he might be able to take two chickens with him before leaving, but now he realized that if he dared to go, he would probably be pecked to death instantly.

"That's enough! What about discipline! All of you, line up!" Pixie, who was being suppressed by a group of chickens, finally lost his temper and roared.

The chickens were startled and, in the next instant, they formed a square formation with incredible speed, their movements resembling those of a well-trained army.

Yue Tian, ​​equally startled, glanced at the instantly formed square formation and secretly decided it was best not to try anything with these chickens. He simply couldn't win; he even suspected that these chickens knew how to form battle formations.

"Da Mao and Xiao Mao, you two step forward. How do you manage discipline?" Bi Xie glanced at the chickens and spoke with a sour face.

"Reporting, boss, Da Mao isn't here; he's guarding the house." One of the chickens in the first row of the formation stepped forward; it was Xiao Mao.

"Hmm, not bad." Bixie nodded, his mood improving somewhat: It seems these guys haven't completely forgotten what he said.

"Hey boss, aren't those your chickens?" Yue Tian carefully walked around the flock of chickens to Bi Xie's side and asked in a low voice.

"They're also under my command, is there a problem?" Bixie turned his head to look at Yuetian with a puzzled expression.

"Uh... of course, no problem, boss." A bead of cold sweat rolled down Yue Tian's forehead. He felt his position was in jeopardy: No, he had to find a chance to deal with these chickens.

"Boss, who is he? Is he a new subordinate?" Xiao Mao circled around Yue Tian in confusion, looking the wolf, who seemed to be a new companion, up and down.

"Of course, I'm the number one underling of Boss Bixie." Before Bixie could speak, Yue Tian shamelessly blurted out.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mao was immediately displeased. He angrily flapped his wings and shouted, "What nonsense are you spouting! The boss's most capable subordinates are clearly me and Da Mao! What gives you, a newcomer, the right to be so arrogant!"

"Hmph, why should I? It's because I only became your underling after losing a fight to the boss." Yue Tian tilted his head back, his expression as if he were the one who had won.

"That's just because we were beaten into submission by the boss. What's there to be proud of? We're the boss's personal beasts. How can you, an outsider, compare?" Little Mao retorted defiantly, whether unaware of his status as reserve food or simply indifferent.

Watching the two beasts start arguing, Bixie rubbed his forehead and turned his head to the side: I knew bringing him back would be troublesome.

Meanwhile, Bai Jie and Tian Lu...

"Is Bixie's personal charisma really that strong?" Bai Jie was a little confused after watching the whole thing: He had been with Bixie for so long and had never had the urge to worship him. How come these two were acting like they were possessed?

"I don't know." Tianlu shook his head with a blank look on his face, which practically screamed "I'm just a foodie and I don't know anything."

After a lot of commotion, Yue Tian and Xiao Mao's argument finally ended with Bi Xie saying, "Whoever makes another sound will have to run laps around the mountain."

Inside the bright house, a faint scent of wood wafted through the air—the aroma of brand-new furniture. In the center of the spacious living room, a huge cardboard box sat, its contents unknown.

With a loud bang, the door to the house was pushed open, and the four beasts rushed in.

"Ah~ I'm back~" Bai Jie collapsed onto the sofa. After many days away, he was back in his familiar home. All he wanted to do was snuggle in bed, take out his phone, and play games until he was completely lost.

"Wow, the new sofa is so comfortable." Bai Jie sank half of his body into the soft sofa, squinting his eyes and burying his head further into the sofa.

"Crack!"

"Hey!" Bai Jie sat up as if he had been electrocuted, and immediately saw Tian Lu, who had somehow pulled out his phone.

"Hehehe, Bai Jie, you were so cute just now." Tian Lu showed a melted expression and put away his phone. He decided: this photo will be the wallpaper from now on. It's rare to see Bai Jie act cute like this.

Bai Jie blushed: It seems I did something that ruined my image when I relaxed, and the worst part is... Yue Tian is watching! Oh well, as long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed.

Silently muttering to himself, Bai Jie got off the sofa as if nothing had happened.

"Ahem, um... what's in this cardboard box?" Yue Tian glanced away, pretending she hadn't seen anything.

"You'll see when you see it." Bai Jie walked to the cardboard box and knocked it over. With a ripping sound, his sharp claws sliced ​​through the box, the lid opened, and three dolls rolled out.

"This is..." Yue Tian's expression gradually became strange. The three dolls on the ground were the images of the three Pixiu brothers.

"So, Third Master, you also like this." Having spent a few days on set, Yue Tian naturally knew Bai Jie's real age, so he understood the Third Master's liking for this.

"What do you mean I like it? This isn't something I wanted to customize." Bai Jie rolled her eyes: I have Tianlu Bixie, wouldn't it be better to just hug this beast? Why do I need a doll?

"Actually, it was my idea." Tianlu raised its claws and waved them in the air.

"Huh!" Yue Tian was startled. He remembered that the second leader was over ten thousand years old. Would someone that old still like dolls?

"Hehe, it's like this, a while ago we used that hair growth tonic and cut off a lot of hair, so I suggested we make these hairs into dolls." Tianlu recounted the whole story with a hint of pride, as if showing off how clever he was.

"Ah? I see." Yue Tian blinked. He thought the old man was just a child at heart. Oh no, it seems he really is a child at heart.
