The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

"I really don't know how to thank you. How about I treat you to a meal, the kind that's all you can eat?"

Upon hearing this, Tianlu's eyes lit up. He opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Baijie.

"No need to treat us, it's just a small favor." Bai Jie retorted: Treating us is one thing, but you dare to feed us all? With the three of us having the appetite to make the buffet owner beg for mercy, you want to feed us all? Are you trying to go bankrupt?

"Oh, is that so? How should I thank you?" Xu Xian, completely unaware that he had narrowly escaped bankruptcy, was still thinking about how to repay these little benefactors.

"Well..." Tianlu was about to say, "Then give us some money," but Baijie interrupted him again.

"Then could you show us the way? We're new to this city and don't know our way around."

Tianlu looked back at Baijie with a head full of questions: Why did you interrupt me?

Bai Jie gave Tian Lu a look: Figure it out yourself.

It's unclear whether Tianlu understood Baijie's expression, but he remained silent.

“That’s fine, I know this area very well. Just tell me where you want to go.” Xu Xian was very confident, as he had grown up here.

"Take us to the lottery shop," Bai Jie suggested. As for why he wanted to go to the lottery shop: well, he was short of money.

"Huh? Why go to the lottery shop? That's not a good place; you'll get carried away." Xu Xian couldn't understand why these three little guys wanted to go to the lottery shop.

"That's alright, we're just lucky." After all, it would be an injustice if we didn't win the lottery with three Pixiu.

"Alright then, but I'll pay the bill. If you win, it's yours; if you lose, it's mine." "Uh, okay."

Bai Jie thought about it for a moment and finally accepted Xu Xian's offer. After all, he hadn't let Xu Xian treat him because it was too much of a rip-off, but the lottery was no problem. Bai Jie was quite confident in his luck.

"Come with me, I'll take you a shortcut." Xu Xian said as he walked towards a side alley.

"Should we really follow him? What if he has malicious intentions?" Bixie, who had been idling by the side for a long time, finally spoke up. He was worried that this human had designs on him and his two younger brothers.

"It's alright, we have you guys here." Bai Jie waved his paws to indicate: it's not a big problem. With the combat strength on our side, even if a real conflict breaks out, the unlucky one will definitely be the other side.

“You can follow, but you two have to stay behind me.” Bixie thought for a moment and felt that Baijie’s words made sense, but he still planned to protect his two younger brothers behind him.

"Okay, sure." Bai replied. Well, it felt pretty good to be protected behind him.

"We've arrived." After walking through the alley for a while, the group soon arrived in front of a lottery shop.

Xu Xian led the three beasts toward the lottery shop, saying as they went, "Let me make it clear beforehand, don't get carried away with your betting, or I won't keep you company."

Upon hearing this, Bai Jie confidently replied, "Don't worry, we'll be very lucky. Just don't get carried away."

After saying that, Bai Jie picked up a scratch card book and scratched it casually. Great, 100 yuan right off the bat.

"Give me another one." Bai Jie put down the scratch-off lottery ticket in his hand, deciding not to continue scratching this one.

"Huh? Why? Didn't I just scratch out some money?" Tianlu was completely bewildered, not understanding why he had to switch to another book right after scratching out a prize.

"Because there's only one big prize in each book, and it's gone once you scratch it, so I have to switch to a different book."

Bai Jie explained to Tian Lu that, after all, they were lucky to win the lottery, not that they could conjure money out of thin air. The one that could conjure money out of thin air wasn't called Pixiu, but the God of Wealth.

I continued to scratch the lottery, and although I didn't always manage to win the grand prize on my first try, and even got quite a few "thank you for your patronage" slips, overall I still made more money than I lost.

Xu Xian stood by watching Bai Jie play scratch-off lottery tickets, utterly dumbfounded: "No way, his luck is just too good!" Thinking back to his own past experiences playing scratch-off lottery tickets, he realized he'd lost everything. Looking at this guy, it was truly infuriating!

Just as Xu Xian was filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment, Bai Jie spoke up, his tone carrying a hint of temptation: "How about it? Want to experience what it's like to be a lucky winner?"

Although Xu Xian didn't know what "Emperor of Luck" meant, he understood the meaning of Bai Jie's words.

"Let me think about it, of course I do. What should I do?" Bai Jie patted his chest and said, "Come on, let me touch you and let you get some good luck."

Upon hearing Bai Jie's words, Xu Xian couldn't wait to reach out and touch it: "Wow, it feels really good."

After a moment of internal reflection, Xu Xian withdrew his hand. "Is this all there is to it?"

"Okay, that's good. Your hand has been blessed. Go scratch the prize now."

Bai Jie was mimicking the tone of a game NPC, completely unaware that Tianlu Bixie's expression was starting to change.

Bixie: Baijie has been touched by someone else!

Tianlu: My little brother got touched by a mud man!

After Xu Xian finished touching the Hundred Solutions, he tried it out and found that his luck had indeed improved: There is such a good thing in the world, not only does it feel good, but it can also bring good fortune. Hmm~, let's try to get some more of that thing called, oh right, good luck.

Just as Xu Xian was about to touch Bai Jie again, he saw Tianlu and Bixie staring at him with murderous eyes.

"Uh..." Xu Xian silently withdrew his hand, and Tianlu Bixie's eyes returned to normal.

Xu Xian: So they're both brother-obsessed. Looks like I can't bask in their good fortune.

Bai Jie was oblivious to the subtle tension between the human and the two beasts, still happily enjoying his lucky streak, until…

"My little darling, I beg you, please don't scratch anymore! I'll give you your tickets for free, okay?" The lottery shop owner had already put on a mask of pain.

It's important to understand that experienced lottery players wouldn't buy these scratch-off tickets that have already won big prizes. In the end, they'd have to deal with them themselves most of the time, and if this continued, they'd lose all their profits for the month.

"Huh?" Bai Jie was a little confused by the lottery shop owner's sudden pleading. "Alright then." He looked at the tens of thousands of yuan in his hand and felt that it was enough for him anyway, so he didn't need to continue scratching.

Finally, the man and the three beasts left the lottery shop amidst the shop owner's farewell. Before leaving, the owner told them the locations of several other lottery shops. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning was clear: you ancestors, don't come and cause trouble for my shop anymore, go and cause trouble for other people.

"Now that we have money, can we go buy some food?" Tianlu still couldn't stop thinking about the food street.

"Didn't you already eat? Are you still not full?" Bai Jie was a little speechless: Tianlu, do you equate money with food?

"What can you do with that money?" Tianlu blinked, indicating: What else can you do with the money besides buying food?

"I should buy a cell phone; I don't have one yet." As a modern person, I can live without many things, but I can't live without a cell phone.

"Want to buy a phone? There's a phone shop over there." Xu Xian headed to a phone shop across the street.

"Let's go then," Bai Jie said.

There were quite a few people coming and going from this store, so it seemed to be a big brand. Stepping into the mobile phone store, the first thing you saw was a variety of mobile phones displayed on the stands.

Bai Jie was about to pick any phone to buy, but when his eyes swept across the display stand, he noticed a phone that was different from the others.

"Apple?" Bai Jie looked at the smartphone in confusion. "So there are Apple products now?"

Bai Jie lingered in front of the phone for so long that the salesperson noticed.

"You have excellent taste. This phone is a brand new release from Apple, featuring an unprecedented touchscreen design, and..."

I ignored all the salesperson's explanations and said, "I'll just buy this one."

The shop assistant who was interrupted wasn't angry; on the contrary, she was quite happy, since it was part of her sales performance.

"Okay, I'll process it for you right away. Please show me your ID card."

"Ah!" Bai Jie's expression froze: How could I forget that I don't have an ID card! I should use Xu Xian's.

"You mean this?" Bixie suddenly spoke, taking something out of his robes.

"Hey!" Bai Jie looked closely and realized it was an ID card.

"Bixie, where did you get this?!" Bixie handed the ID card in his hand to the shop assistant, and at the same time turned to Baijie to explain: "It was given to me by the Heavenly Court when I came down to the mortal world. They said it would be of great use in the mortal world."

Bai Jie: Is the Heavenly Court really this considerate of its subordinates? But I seem to remember that when the Qilin descended to the mortal realm, it was kicked down?

"Do you have Tianlu?" Baijie asked. Since Bixie has it, Tianlu should also have it.

"Ah, haha, haha." Tianlu laughed awkwardly.

Bai Jie: Okay, you don't need to say anymore, I know. You ate it, right?

As Bai Jie walked out of the mobile phone store, he held his phone with great satisfaction: Smartphones are so much more comfortable to use!

Just as Bai Jie was sighing in disbelief, Xu Xian suddenly asked, "You don't have a place to stay yet, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Jie was taken aback. "It seems there really isn't one." As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xian pointed to himself with his thumb and said, "Then come and stay with me. I own several houses near my home, and none of them are currently rented out."

Xu Xian said: These three adorable beasts can also bring wealth, so I must take them home!

"Uh, okay." Bai Jie agreed without much hesitation. After all, finding a place to stay was a bit of a hassle, and Bai Jie was a beast who hated trouble.

Yes! Xu Xian was secretly delighted: the abduction was a success.

Both Bai Jie and Xu Xian are quite satisfied now; one feels he's brought home three adorable little creatures, and the other feels he's escaped trouble.

Tianlu Bixie was a little unhappy. They disliked the mud figure, but there was nothing they could do because Baijie wanted to go.

During their journey, Bai Jie and Xu Xian chatted, the two of them talking about everything under the sun, from the mundane to the mundane, and seemed to get along extremely well.

That's right. Tianlu and Bixie next to them were looking at Xu Xian with increasingly hostile eyes. They had a feeling that their little brother was about to be kidnapped. Should they kill this person? No, Baijie would be sad.

Xu Xian suddenly shivered; he felt a chill down his spine.
