The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Inside a detached house in the city...

"Come on, you little monster, quickly try my newly learned Buddha Jumps Over the Wall!" Rabbit Lord walked briskly out of the kitchen carrying a plate of dishes, his attitude incredibly enthusiastic.

"We eat meat every day, let's have a vegetarian meal too." The four-legged creature was sweating profusely: If I keep eating like this, I'll get fat, and... I'm a deer, so why does Teacher Tony keep stuffing meat into my mouth?

"Oh well, it's already made, so just eat it." Rabbit Lord placed Buddha Jumps Over the Wall on the dining table. Looking around, he saw a dazzling array of dishes on the table, its abundance comparable to a Manchu Han Imperial Feast.

"Sigh~ Alright then." The four-legged creature sighed, knowing in its heart that Rabbit Lord was concerned about it.

Reluctantly, he picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks and tasted it. His strange-looking body paused slightly: "Mmm...it's really delicious."

"There's one more dish in the kitchen. I'll come and eat with you, Four-Faced Beast, when it's ready," Rabbit said, without making a move, as if he was waiting for something.

“Okay, Tony, you can go ahead.” The four-legged rabbit nodded as well.

Having received a response, Rabbit turned around contentedly to continue cooking. The clattering of pots and pans resumed. Listening to the sounds from the kitchen, Qilin silently picked up another piece of food and put it in its mouth: This feeling... is not bad.

Before long, a fragrant aroma wafted from the kitchen, and the last dish was ready.

With a bang, Rabbit Lord brought out the dish and placed it on the dining table. Qilin glanced at it without saying a word, and then fell silent.

"Freshly cooked spicy fish, fish doesn't count as meat." Seeing the speechless expression on the four-legged creature's face, Rabbit Lord preemptively argued before the creature could speak.

"Hmm... fish will do too." The four-legged creature gave up resisting.

Sunlight streamed into the room through the window, illuminating the food on the table with vibrant colors. Beside the table, the two beasts chatted and enjoyed their meal, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

"By the way, Tony, why don't you go back to the Moon Palace?" The Qilin swallowed a mouthful of rice and asked casually. When he became a spirit, he was just a wild deer, so he didn't have many relatives to gather with during the New Year.

Originally, the four-legged beast was prepared to spend the New Year alone, but the Rabbit God suddenly approached him and said that he was not going back to the Moon Palace. So, the two movie stars ended up spending the New Year together.

"Hey! What's the point of going back..." Rabbit Lord kept piling food into the bowl of the four-legged creature, while replying with an indifferent expression: "Going back would just mean rice cakes and mooncakes, and there aren't many Jade Rabbits I know at the Jade Rabbit Gathering. It's boring, so I might as well stay in the mortal world."

"Oh, I see." The four-legged creature responded and then fell silent.

But Rabbit God spoke again: "Four-Legged Beast, you have no idea about my legendary experiences on the moon. Back then, I climbed all the way from an ordinary jade rabbit to the position of the chief chef of the lunar sky. Back then..."

Rabbit Lord recounted his past exploits at length, while the four-legged creature beside him became a dutiful listener, occasionally chiming in with a word of agreement. Rabbit Lord could tell that he was listening attentively the whole time, and the relationship between the two beasts gradually grew closer without them even realizing it.

The scene shifts to a human village. It's time for the New Year's Eve dinner. Every household is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and the sound of firecrackers is constant. Children are playing and laughing in the courtyard, while adults sit around the dining table chatting.

Our gaze fell upon a house, where Xu Xian, whom we haven't seen in a long time, was surprisingly present, though his current condition seemed to be quite bad.

"Hey Xian'er, have you found a job yet? How's the salary? You're not still sponging off your parents, are you?"

"Xian'er, have you found someone yet? I'm not saying this to criticize you, but you're not getting any younger, it's time to get married and have children..."

Xu Xian sat expressionlessly in his chair, calmly eating his meal despite the nagging of his aunts and uncles, seemingly oblivious to their voices.

"Why isn't this child saying anything? Is he mute?" Xu Xian's aunt complained after talking for a while and noticing that Xu Xian didn't respond at all. Then, she turned to a man drinking alone on the other side of the table and asked, "Brother, tell me, has Xian'er found a girlfriend yet?"

Upon hearing this, the man drinking alone slammed his bottle down on the table in a fit of anger. With a bang, he began to list all of Xu Xian's various ailments: "It makes me so angry! Every mouse in his house has a baby, but he himself hasn't even shown any interest in a girlfriend. I really..."

Amidst a chorus of profanities, Xu Xian finished the last bite of his meal, then put his hands in his pockets and expertly typed a message without looking.

In the next room, a little gray mouse was intently looking at its phone when suddenly a notification popped up on its screen.

The snake and rat duo said, "Little Grey, make some noise, I need to escape."

Upon seeing the message, the little gray mouse tilted his head and thought for a moment, then took out his phone and played an audio clip.

The sound of something breaking after hitting the ground suddenly rang out, startling the group of people who were eating. Xu Xian took the opportunity to stand up abruptly.

"Dad, it must be that Huihui accidentally broke something. I'll go check!" Before the relatives could react, Xu Xian said this and quickly picked up Huixian, who was still eating, and headed to his room.

"You brat! You're trying to run away as soon as you get the chance, aren't you!" The man who had been scolding Xu Xian earlier cursed. He was Xu Xian's father.

"Bang!" Xu Xian entered his room without looking back and closed the door.

"Phew~ I'm finally free, all thanks to you, Little Grey." Xu Xian plopped down in his computer chair and gave a thumbs-up to the little grey mouse who was looking at his phone on the table.

"Of course." The little gray mouse was still looking down at his phone intently. He was the son of Gray Fairy, whose formal name was Gray and nickname was Little Gray. Xu Xian came up with the name on a slap in his forehead.

"Hey! Why did you pull me back? I haven't eaten yet!" The gray fairy in Xu Xian's hands only came to its senses after realizing what had happened. It struggled to get up and shouted in dissatisfaction.

"Stop howling. Can't you learn from your son? He's not only well-behaved but also knows how to study. Unlike you, you fat, dead rat..." As he spoke, Xu Xian glanced at what Huihui was looking at: Hmm... He could understand each word individually, but when put together, it was like a book written in heaven.

"Hmph! No matter what, he's still my son. His excellence just shows that I have good genes!" Upon hearing Xu Xian dare to talk back to her, Hui Xian'er immediately bristled: Not only did he not let me eat my fill, but he also dared to insult me. Today, I'll insult you until your grandma won't recognize you!

"Your genes are good? I think it's the woman's genes that are good." Xu Xian said with a look of disdain.

"The fact that I can find someone like this proves that I'm awesome, unlike you, a single dog."

"Maybe they're just playing around."

"Single dog".

"What's so great about living off a woman!"

"That's still better than being single."

"Can't you say something else instead of this?!"

"Oh, then I have many wives."

"Fuck me!"

Various noises echoed in the room, but when these sounds reached Huihui, they were automatically filtered out by his brain. These two rivals argued every day, and he was already used to it.

After arguing for a while, Xu Xian couldn't help but feel the urge to strangle the rat again: It's disgusting! If you're going to argue, just argue. What's with this personal attack on me because I'm single?

The more they argued, the angrier Xu Xian became. In a fit of anger, he simply stopped arguing with Hui Xian'er and instead turned on his computer.

"What are you doing? Can't win the argument and are you going to look up a guide online?" Hui Xian'er leaned over and looked at the computer screen with a puzzled expression. Then, he saw the words "100 Tortures for Rats" written in big, bright letters on the screen.

"Holy crap! How did you still keep this?!" Hui Xian'er was shocked. Only at this moment did he recall how terrifying Xu Xian was.

"Why? Just in case." Xu Xian shrugged and continued flipping through the documents.

Seeing all sorts of torture images, Grey Fairy's fur stood on end: "If you don't delete this, I'm running away from home!"

“Let’s go…” Xu Xian said nonchalantly, “There are cats everywhere in the village, and they are all cats that are specifically used to catch mice. They are not as easy to deal with as those house cats. If you are not afraid of death, then run away from home.”

The gray fairy, who was about to leave, froze. He slowly turned around and looked at Xu Xian. In the end, the gray fairy had no choice but to use his last move, which was also his final move.

Taking a deep breath, Hui Xian'er suddenly rushed forward and hugged Xu Xian's hand: "Daddy, I was wrong!"

That cry of "Dad" was so sincere, so heartbreaking, it seemed to express all of Grey Fairy's helplessness: I just can't outmaneuver this dog!

"Sigh~ If only my good son had been this quick-witted earlier." Xu Xian grinned and patted the rat's head mischievously.

Grey Fairy rolled her eyes, not wanting to pay any attention to this dog.

Xu Xian closed the file in a good mood. He planned to keep it so that if Hui Xian'er dared to provoke him again, he could torture him in front of the computer until he submitted.

Grey Fairy: I may not be human, but you really are a dog!

Xu Xian opened the webpage, intending to find out if there were any good new anime series recently. After glancing at them briefly, Xu Xian's expression suddenly froze.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Xu Xian's expression, Hui Xian'er looked at the computer suspiciously, and the next second, he was also dumbfounded: "That silly blue and white dog went to film a movie?!"

"What are you yelling about? Have you forgotten how your brother pinned you to the ground and you didn't dare utter a sound?" Xu Xian casually gave Hui Xian'er a slap on the shoulder.

"Hiss! That stupid dog isn't here again, what's wrong with me shouting?!" Grey Fairy rubbed her head and glared at him.

Xu Xian ignored the gray fairy who was baring her teeth at him and moved his mouse to open the novel "Beasts and Beasts," which had just been released during the Lunar New Year.

Episode 1, "A Divine Beast Exists in the Human Realm, From the Nine Heavens," is now playing.

After some time, the first episode finished airing. Listening to the ending theme, Xu Xian leaned back in his computer chair, lost in thought: Why does this plot of being hunted by humans seem so familiar? Isn't this just a rehash of a news story from over a decade ago? So, is this drama based on a true story?
