The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

In the storage room of the three Pixiu's home...

"I remember putting the Hundred Solutions here. Strange, where did it go?" Tianlu muttered to himself as he searched back and forth. He had made up an excuse to run away, and he needed to find what he wanted and go back as soon as possible.

"Oh dear, where is it..." Tianlu became anxious, frantically rummaging through the pile of debris with his two paws. Suddenly, a strange fragrance wafted out: "Hey, found it!"

Tianlu was overjoyed. He followed the scent and rummaged through a pile of junk with his claws. Soon, he pulled out a piece of woody smartweed.

"Whoosh! I finally found it!" Tianlu excitedly held the cattail shoot. Baijie had bought it back then, but Tianlu wasn't quite sure why he bought it. He only remembered his younger brother talking about mountain gods and cats back then. However, he had never actually used the cattail shoot until now.

After getting what he was looking for, Tianlu left the storeroom and headed towards the room where Baijie and the other beasts were, while he hid Mutianliao in his tail.

Pushing open the door, Tianlu immediately saw a group of beasts gathered around the computer, as well as Yue Tian and Maolong engaged in a game battle.

"Zoom in, zoom in! Hey, why are you running? Go for it!" Bai Jie shouted and directed Yue Tian from his side. He had bet 50 cents that Yue Tian would win, and he absolutely couldn't lose this round.

"Mimi mimi mimi mimi mimi. (Go, little brother! Go, little brother! Go, little brother!)" Totoro, who was betting against Baijie, kept cheering for his teammate, Neko-Dragon, while waving a small flag that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere in his claws.

"They don't seem to notice me." Tianlu thought to himself as he watched the four beasts intently staring at the computer. He quietly moved closer to the little cat playing with a ball of yarn.

"Meow?" The little cat looked up at Tianlu in confusion, then cautiously backed away.

Tianlu's face was full of ill intent. He turned his body and his tail swayed in front of the little tile cat. The fragrance of wood lily wafted out. When the little tile cat smelled this scent, its eyes became a little dazed.

"Tianlu, when did you get back?"

The sudden appearance of Bai Jie's voice behind him startled Tianlu, who was about to do something naughty. He turned around, trying to appear calm, and said nonchalantly, "Just got back?"

"Oh, how's the food?" Bai Jie asked, oblivious to Tian Lu's unusual behavior.

“Bixie said it would take a while, but I’ve already taken some of the prepared stuff. Baijie, try it, it’s delicious.” Tianlu took out a bag of fried meat from his pocket and handed it to Baijie. Although going to the kitchen to check on things was just an excuse, he really went.

"Mmm, delicious!" Bai Jie took the bag, took out a piece of meat and took a bite. The outside was crispy and delicious, and the inside was tender. When you bite into it, the two different textures blended perfectly in your mouth.

"What's the Third Master eating? I want some too!" Yue Tian, ​​who was playing a game, smelled the aroma of meat and shouted while staring intently at the screen, barely suppressing the urge to turn around.

"Sure, you should try some too." Bai Jie took a bag of meat and walked towards the computer.

Seeing that Bai Jie had left, Tian Lu breathed a sigh of relief. He secretly rejoiced: Luckily, he couldn't resist running over to take a look because of the delicious smell coming from the kitchen, otherwise he would have been exposed by now.

Just then, the little cat behind Tianlu finally couldn't hold back any longer. The scent of the wood lily made him hallucinate, and the blue tail swaying in front of him seemed to turn into a cat toy. He couldn't help but pounce on it and take a bite.

With a scream, Yue Tian and Mao Long, who were playing the game, were so frightened that their claws trembled, and their game characters perished together.

"Gulp, what's going on?" Yue Tian swallowed the meat in his mouth and turned around in a daze. The other hands also turned around to look. They saw the little cat hugging Tian Lu's tail and biting and nibbling at it, while Tian Lu was trying to pry its head off to stop it.

"Awoooooo! Bai Jie, look at him! He's biting me!" Upon noticing that all the beasts were looking over, Tian Lu had a sudden inspiration and unleashed his full acting skills.

With tears glistening in her eyes and a single tear clinging to the corner of her eye as if it might fall at any moment, and her small mouth slightly pursed, Tianlu looked at Baijie with an utterly pitiful expression.

"Don't cry." Bai Jie felt paralyzed: How could you be bullied to tears by a cat that can't even beat me? Where's your domineering spirit? Where's your temper?

"Uh... um, should I excuse myself?" Yue Tian asked blankly, his image as the second-in-command crumbling in his mind.

Bai Jie had no interest in talking to Yue Tian, ​​so he hurriedly went to Tian Lu's side to wipe away his tears.

"Alright, alright, Tianlu, don't cry. I'll help you deal with him." Baijie tried to comfort him, but it didn't work. Seeing Tianlu's even more aggrieved expression, Baijie's heart softened and she couldn't help but hug him with both hands.

Tianlu's expression stiffened. Feeling Baijie's embrace, he couldn't hold back his emotions any longer: Baijie cares about me so much, am I being inappropriate? Hmm... whatever! If you're going to act, you have to play the part! This is the self-discipline of a future movie star!

"Hmm~ Bai Jie really helped me teach him a lesson?" Tian Lu composed himself and asked in a low voice.

"Of course I'll teach you a lesson, uh..." Bai Jie suddenly stopped halfway through his sentence, his face darkening as he looked at the little cat that was still biting Tianlu's tail.

With a thud, Little Cat was punched aside by Bai Jie.

"Bite, bite, bite! I'm here and you still dare to bite? Didn't the trauma from last time leave a deep enough scar on you?" Bai Jie grabbed the little cat and gave it a good scolding. Tian Lu, who was standing next to him, secretly felt pleased: Bai Jie was still protecting him after all.

"Um, Bai Jie, how about we let him go this time?" Neko-Long stepped forward to plead for his younger brother, while Totoro followed behind, meowing twice.

Bai Jie turned around and stared at Totoro. After two seconds, the two brothers slunk back to Yue Tian's side.

Only then did the little cat regain some consciousness. Facing Bai Jie's unfriendly gaze, he felt a surge of fear. Recalling the consequences of angering this golden dog last time, the little cat's body trembled uncontrollably. Driven by fear, he meowed and begged for mercy, but unfortunately, Bai Jie couldn't understand a word he said.

Carrying the little cat, Bai Jie was about to take it to the bathroom to experience the pain when he suddenly smelled a strange fragrance.

"Sniff, what's this smell?" Bai Jie looked around suspiciously: This doesn't smell like the Pixiu's body fragrance.

Tianlu broke out in a cold sweat: He absolutely cannot be discovered, or he'll be finished!

"What kind of smell could it have? Bai Jie, you must have smelled it wrong," Tian Lu said with a laugh, trying to fool him.

Hearing Bai Jie and Tian Lu's conversation, Yue Tian subconsciously sniffed the air and then said, "This isn't..."

Before he could finish speaking, he received a threatening look from Tianlu: "Isn't there no problem?"

Yue Tian wisely changed her address.

The Totoro also smelled the fragrance of the wood hyacinth in the air. Bai Jie hadn't smelled it much before and wasn't familiar with it, but they recognized it immediately: they had a lot of this at home.

Realizing something was wrong, the Totoro brothers opened their mouths as if to say something, but before they could utter a word, they saw Tianlu's dangerous gaze.

Silently swallowing their words, Totoro and Totoro exchanged a glance, both thinking the same thing: "I'm sorry, little brother, even I can't save you now."

Bai Jie eventually believed Tian Lu's nonsense, thinking that he must have smelled it wrong. So, under the watchful eyes of several beasts, the little tile cat, who had almost escaped death, was dragged into the bathroom.

"Shouldn't you give us an explanation? He's our brother, after all!" After Bai Jie left, the two Totoro brothers confronted Tian Lu. Totoro questioned Tian Lu as if he hadn't been the coward just moments before.

"Uh... what do you want?" Tianlu hesitated for a moment before softening his tone: it would be bad if these two were pushed to the limit and went to Baijie to complain. Yes, that's right, that's why. It's definitely not because he felt guilty or anything.

Seeing that Tianlu wasn't being aggressive, Maolong breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he was afraid that this Pixiu would act unreasonably and forcefully, in which case there would be no way to deal with it. But now, it seemed that he could talk about terms.

After coughing twice, Maolong prepared to demonstrate his negotiation skills.

"You wronged my brother so much, you should at least... Brother, what are you doing?!" Just as he was about to make a huge demand, Maolong saw a scene that made him lose his composure.

Suddenly, the Totoro appeared beside Tianlu's tail, sniffing it with a look of utter infatuation. If the Totoro didn't know what was going on, it would have thought its brother was in heat.

"What do you want to do to me! Get out of my way!" After Totoro shouted, Tianlu turned around and found that Totoro's expression was extremely strange. He was so frightened that his fur stood on end and he quickly retracted his tail.

"Meow~" The fragrance that was so close was now far away, and without thinking, the Totoro lunged forward and hugged the source of the fragrance.

"Brother, calm down!" Cat Dragon hugged Totoro's body and tried to pull him backward, but it didn't work.

Totoro completely ignored his brother's advice, and he was obsessed with hugging Tianlu's tail, nibbling and sucking on it, seemingly even more enthusiastic than before.

"Get away from me!" Tianlu tried to pry the tortoise's claws off, but although he wasn't bitten, the tortoise's behavior was so disgusting that Tianlu couldn't accept it.

The three beasts were making a ruckus over a piece of catnip, while Yue Tian, ​​who had been watching the whole thing from the sidelines, was eating a bag of meat while observing.

"That's why I like coming to the three leaders' place; there's always something exciting to see." Yue Tian muttered to herself, then took out a piece of meat from the bag and stuffed it into her mouth: "Mmm, eating melon and meat at the same time is so delicious."
