The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".
Chapter 71 The Law of True Fragrance
After some twists and turns, Da Mao also left. Actually, he originally wanted to stay and follow Bi Xie, but when he found that all the beasts around him were drooling over him, he chose to leave without thinking.
"By the way, Second Brother, where's Eldest Brother? Didn't he go out with you?" Huang Jiu asked in confusion after Da Mao left.
Huang Er shrugged: "Your older brother went to pay New Year's respects to the chickens. I reckon he won't be back for a while."
Bai Jie was shocked: "Wait a minute, what do you mean by wishing a chicken a Happy New Year?"
"It means exactly what it says..." Before Huang Er could speak, Huang Jiu explained for him: "Don't worry, Big Brother has a good relationship with that chicken farm and won't eat it. At most, he'll just smell it and eat it with rice."
Bai Jie was speechless: You guys are truly a family of geniuses.
The camera then shifts to inside the house.
"You can't waste any more time, Fourth Brother. Xiao Jiu's magic is even better than yours now." Huang Wu looked directly at Huang Si, his tone full of seriousness.
Huang Si rolled his eyes: "Ninth Brother only practiced his magic so well so he could run away after causing trouble. Why would I practice my magic so well if I just stay at home, don't cause trouble, and don't encounter any danger?"
Huang Wu's face darkened with anger at his fourth brother's words: "Even Xiao Jiu is more capable than you! At least he knows that no matter what you do, you have to learn the skills first! Look at you! In short, fourth brother, you either stay at home and cultivate diligently, or go out and find a job!"
"Fine, fine, I'll start cultivating, okay?" Huang Si was forced into a corner and reluctantly agreed to the request.
Huang Wu's expression showed a hint of satisfaction: "Alright, after the New Year, Fourth Brother, you can stay in our hometown with me to cultivate."
Huang Si, who was thinking, "Anyway, no beast will care about me once I go back to the city," was stunned, then turned pale with shock: "You mean I should stay in my hometown to cultivate?!"
“Yes.” Huang Wu nodded: “The spiritual energy in the city is thin, so I plan to stay in the village to cultivate. Fourth Brother, why don’t you stay with me too?”
Huang Si's expression changed repeatedly, and finally he forced a smile and said, "That won't be necessary. I'm doing quite well in the city."
Huang Wu mercilessly exposed Huang Si's thoughts: "Fourth Brother, stop pretending. I know you definitely won't cultivate properly after you go back to the city."
"Tch!" Huang Si plopped down on the bed, feeling his future was bleak: with his fifth brother's personality, he could forget about having a good life in the future.
Just then, the bedroom door creaked open, and Huang Jiu poked his head in: "Fourth Brother, it's time to cook. Make a lot more today, as the eldest brother and Yue Ge want to stay for lunch."
Along with Huang Jiu's words, Huang Si and Huang Wu in the bedroom also heard a cry of hunger from outside the door. Judging from the sound, it was the blue Pixiu calling out.
"Okay, I'll do it right away." Huang Sisheng stood up listlessly, left the bedroom and headed towards the kitchen, his steps heavy.
Watching Huang Si walk into the kitchen, Huang Jiu was completely bewildered: "What's wrong, Fourth Brother?" he asked Huang Wu.
"I'm upset because I made him stay in the village with me to cultivate," Huang Wu explained, his words full of disappointment.
Huang Jiu opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. He suddenly felt a little sorry for Huang Si: With Fifth Brother's cultivation fanatic personality, Fourth Brother's future days are going to be tough. But it's okay, with Fourth Brother around, I don't have to be afraid that Fifth Brother will drag me to cultivate. Hmm... Fourth Brother, keep it up!
In the living room, Bai Jie and Bi Xie both looked helplessly at Tian Lu, who was throwing a tantrum on the floor.
"Stop howling, Tianlu, the food is already being prepared," Pixie stepped forward and tried to persuade him.
Tianlu flailed its four paws in the air, yelling loudly, "I don't care, I'll just howl! I'm hungry, I want to eat, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry, hungry!"
Bixie had no choice but to retreat when he encountered Tianlu, and he also gave Baijie a wink.
Bai Jie understood Bi Xie's meaning. He walked to Tian Lu's side and gently kicked him with his front paw: "Get up quickly."
Tianlu's body stiffened for a moment, and he immediately withdrew his wildly kicking claws, looking pitifully at Baijie.
"Get up. If you're hungry, go find something to eat. If you keep lying there like this, I'll take away your allowance," Bai Jie urged, kicking him twice more.
As soon as Bai Jie finished speaking, Tian Lu jumped up and cried out, "Don't deduct it! I was wrong!"
Bixie silently looked up at the ceiling: Why won't Tianlu listen to me?
Seeing Tianlu's cowardly expression, Baijie rolled his eyes and turned to Huang Er, asking, "Do you have anything to eat at your house?"
Huang Er sat in the chair and stroked his chin: "Yes, I do. Let me go get it." After saying that, he stood up and walked towards a room.
When Huang Jiu and Huang Wu arrived in the living room, they saw their second brother carrying several large bags as he walked out of the storage room.
"Come and have a taste, these are the New Year's treats I brought back." Huang Er said, opening the bag and dumping it onto the table, a whole bunch of things spilling out.
Bai Jie looked closely and saw a huge pile of random things on the table, including dried rats, braised frogs, and spicy crickets. Cold sweat broke out on the back of his head when he saw it.
"You...you guys eat this for Chinese New Year?" Bai Jie asked, stammering a little.
Huang Jiu picked up a bag of spicy crickets and answered matter-of-factly, "Yes, that's all we'll eat."
With a hiss, Bai Jie gasped, sensing something was wrong, extremely wrong: Could this be the kind of thing these weasels were having for lunch?
Bai Jie stared at the pile of food on the table that looked like a culinary disaster, his expression conflicted for a moment. Finally, he hardened his heart: I can just not eat it. I won't starve to death if I skip a meal.
"Bai Jie, Bai Jie, this is delicious, you should try it."
A cheerful sound entered his ears, and Bai Jie turned his head to see Tian Lu chewing on something and handing him a braised frog.
Bai Jie felt a chill run down her spine and took a step back: "No, no need, I'm not hungry."
"Hey Baijie, just try some!" Tianlu swallowed the unknown food in his mouth and enthusiastically handed the braised frog to Baijie's mouth.
Bai Jie raised his claws and brushed Tian Lu's claws aside, saying, "There's no need for that."
Bai Jie declared: Even if I die today! Even if I starve to death here! I will never eat a single bite of this disgusting stuff!
"Bai Jie, take a bite first." Without saying a word, Tian Lu stuffed the braised frog into Bai Jie's mouth.
Caught off guard, a frog's mouthful hit Bai Jie. He instinctively grabbed his throat and took two steps back. His expression changed rapidly, first clenching his fist, then looking bewildered, and finally turning into surprise.
"Glug." Bai Jie swallowed the braised frog in his mouth, looking hesitant: The taste... seems... not bad?
"Hehe, isn't it delicious? Bai Jie, have another one?" Seeing his younger brother's expression, Tianlu grinned and handed him another serving of dried rat meat.
The claws involuntarily rose to take it, and Bai Jie took a bite of the dried rat. As his lips moved, he chewed gently, and a taste he had never experienced before spread across his taste buds: Mmm...it's so delicious!
Bai Jie ultimately succumbed to the "it's so delicious!" phenomenon and joined the ranks of foodies.
On a path in Caiyun Village, two weasels with ferret heads and human bodies hurried along, carrying a lot of things in large and small bags.
"Hurry up! If you don't get home soon, you won't have time to eat with your children!" the weasel, dressed as a female, urged anxiously.
The other weasel, with a miserable face, ran and complained, "I'm carrying the heaviest things, how am I supposed to run fast?"
The two beasts rushed to the doorstep before dinner. At a glance, they realized it was Huang Jiu's house. The identities of the two weasels were now quite clear; they were the parents of the Huang brothers.
As they opened the door and stepped into the yard, Mr. and Mrs. Huang breathed a sigh of relief.
"At least we didn't miss lunch," Dad Huang exclaimed.
Aunt Huang stood at the door and called out, "Stop sighing and come in quickly."
"Hey, I'm here, I'm here." Dad Huang ran over excitedly.
Pushing open the door, Huang's father saw his sons eating with the other animals. He took a step into the room, about to greet them, when suddenly he stepped on a plastic bag and fell backward, the cardboard box in his hand flying out of his hand.
The beasts, who were eating, looked up in bewilderment and saw cardboard boxes and bags spinning in the air, with the contents falling out and heading straight for them.
After a series of thuds and the screams of beasts being hit, the scene fell silent.
Mr. Huang got up from the ground, somewhat embarrassed and angry, and roared, "Who threw this plastic bag away?"
Bai Jie, who was covered by a piece of clothing with Yue Tian, suddenly noticed that the beast beside him had become a little unfocused.
"Did you do this?" Bai Jie turned around and asked directly.
Startled by the question, Yue Tian quickly covered Bai Jie's mouth and whispered, "Shh! Third Master, keep your voice down!"
With his mouth covered, Bai Jie made two muffled noises.
Yue Tian released his grip, and Bai Jie immediately asked in a low voice, "So it really was you who did it?"
Yue Tian awkwardly turned her head away: "I just threw it casually, I didn't expect this to happen."
Bai Jie patted Yue Tian with its paw, saying, whether in admiration or complaint, "As expected of you, even a casual toss can cause such a result."
Yue Tian tilted her head blankly: "Is it really that exaggerated?"
“Of course there are…” Bai Jie nodded firmly: “Think about all the things you’ve done: blowing up outhouses with biogas, making muskets by hand with gunpowder, digging an underground base only to find groundwater and flooding someone’s vegetable garden, and…”
"Stop!" Yue Tian raised his paw to stop Bai Jie from continuing: "I know how cowardly I am, no need to remind me."
Bai Jie smacked his lips, still wanting more. There were still so many things Yue Tian hadn't said. It would be so much fun to bring them up in front of this beast, but unfortunately, he wouldn't let him say them: Never mind, we'll find another opportunity next time.
