The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".
Chapter 78 The Unlucky Tanuki Father and Son
In the RV, Bai Ze chatted with Di Ting for a couple more minutes before decisively saying goodbye and leaving, influenced by the shipping between Puss in Boots and Xiao Hang. He felt a chill run down his spine at Di Ting's enthusiasm, so he decided to leave quickly.
That day, Bai Ze slept in the room arranged by the film crew. Originally, Di Ting wanted to invite him to stay overnight in his RV, but he refused.
At that time, Puss in Boots was standing right next to him, and his ambiguous gaze was too much for Bai Ze to bear, otherwise he might have really agreed.
The next day, Bai Ze cautiously arrived at the filming location, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily to see if the certain black divine beast had arrived.
After searching for a while, Bai Ze did not find Di Ting. He breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "Thank goodness that guy didn't come, otherwise..."
"Mr. Bai Ze, what are you doing?"
The sudden sound behind him startled Bai Ze so much that he jumped onto the roof of the deer-man shop. The moment he regained his footing, he already knew what was going on.
With a stiff expression, Bai Ze turned around and saw Di Ting looking up at him with a puzzled look.
"When did you appear?! How come you walk so quietly? Oh wait, even if you walk quietly, I should have known!"
Bai Ze's stiffened into shock and anger. He roared angrily, looking extremely frustrated. However, before Bai Ze could rage for long, a voice suppressed his momentum.
"Hey, Bai Ze, come down first, or the roof will get trampled." Puss in Boots shouted from under the eaves, holding a megaphone.
Bai Ze's expression of shock and anger froze instantly. Under Puss in Boots' gaze, he had no choice but to slink down from the roof.
"Mr. Bai Ze, what's going on?" Di Ting looked at Bai Ze with a puzzled expression, his eyes revealing confusion and his tone sounding very perplexed.
Bai Ze's lips twitched. He silently turned his head away, not wanting to answer Di Ting. However, some things wouldn't be known if he didn't say them.
"Oh Earth, what's wrong with Mr. Bai Ze this time?"
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Bai Ze turned around speechlessly. As he expected, Di Ting was lying on the ground in a prostrate position.
"So you're still troubled by this, sir." I don't know what Dadi and Di heard, but after standing up, he showed an understanding expression and even comforted Bai Ze: "It's okay, sir. Don't worry about what other beasts think. As a divine beast that understands people's hearts, you have to adapt to these things."
Bai Ze rolled his eyes at these words and said: You're lecturing me now? The reason I'm like this is because I'm already annoyed with you.
The scene shifts to a forest where a red ball of fluff is hopping along. As the distance closes, the red ball of fluff becomes clearer – it's none other than Tao Tao.
"I'm starving! Taking my son to school means I'll miss lunch. I'll just find some wild animal on the way to have a bite to eat," Tao Tao muttered to himself as he walked, keeping an eye on his surroundings and trying to find a large wild beast to hunt.
Unfortunately, this area is where Tianlu has been active for a long time, and any fat ones have long been caught and eaten. Even if there are any left, it is unlikely that Tao Tao will encounter them.
"Where are all the animals? Oh well, I'll just have to ask the director for food when the crew arrives." Tao Tao's eyes were practically glowing with hunger. He hadn't found a single suitable prey after walking for so long, and he didn't want any of the smaller ones. In the end, Tao Tao had no choice but to speed up his journey to the filming location.
"Woof, woof, woof..."
A sound like a dog barking suddenly came, and Tao Tao's ears twitched and he stopped abruptly. His face lit up with joy, and he thought to himself, "Prey has come knocking."
Holding her breath and listening intently with her ear pressed to the ground, Tao Tao heard the dog barking clearly, along with a heavy footstep. Judging from the sound, the owner of the footsteps was definitely a big guy.
A flicker of excitement flashed in Tao Tao's eyes. He crept quietly toward the source of the sound, getting closer and closer. Parting a bush, Tao Tao saw a plump, brown wild boar, and on its back, a pink piglet kept barking. The footsteps and barking he had heard earlier were clearly coming from these two pigs.
"Slurp, there are two of them! Although the pink one is a bit small, it's perfect for dessert." Thinking this, Tao Tao unconsciously drooled. He silently prepared to attack, looking determined to get it.
As Xu Dashan listened to his son recount his experiences as an actor, he inexplicably trembled. The next second, as he sensed danger, a red figure darted out from the bushes beside him.
"Damn it! Prepare to die!" Tao Tao lunged at the two raccoon dogs with bared teeth and claws, but just as he reached them, he was blocked by a suddenly appearing earthen wall.
"What the hell?" Before Tao Tao could react, he slammed the entire beast against the earthen wall.
Behind the wall, Xu Dashan wiped the cold sweat from his brow and felt relieved: Thank goodness, this guy wasn't as strong as last time; at least he didn't faint in a flash.
Tao Tao slid off the earthen wall and fell to the ground. He stood there dumbfounded for two seconds, then became furious: he had actually been blocked by a crooked earthen wall!
Tao Tao turned and went around the earthen wall, and then he saw that his two prey had already run dozens of meters away.
"Stop right there!" Tao Tao roared angrily and quickly chased after them.
As Xu Hengji was being carried away by Xu Dashan, he looked back and saw the red ball that had attacked them rolling rapidly towards them like a sphere.
"Woof woof, woof woof!" Xu Hengji barked anxiously to remind his father.
Hearing his son's warning, Xu Dashan glanced back without stopping, and saw that the red ball was getting closer and closer to them. This made Xu Dashan's heart tighten: Oh no! I can't run as fast as it rolls!
In a flash, Xu Dashan quickly devised a plan. Just as Tao Tao was about to launch her attack, he suddenly turned around.
In the blink of an eye, a miniature A-shaped building rose from the ground. Tao Tao couldn't brake in time and rolled onto it. The next second, a red ball flew into the air due to inertia.
Xu Dashan dropped the dirt in his paws and ran away. As a Tanuki, building is an innate talent for them. Although they don't have much combat power, they can still do things if they have a big imagination.
"Ugh, that's great! I'm so angry!" Tao Tao landed steadily on the ground, and he yelled angrily as he watched the Tanuki father and son run a distance further away.
"You forced me to do this!" Tao Tao's eyes hardened, and the divine power within his body slowly surged, causing the surrounding dust to tremble uneasily.
"It seems I have no choice but to use this form that I haven't used in a long time."
A plume of smoke, unique to her transformation, rose up, obscuring Tao Tao's changed form.
Ahead, Xu Hengji, perched on his father's back, observed the situation behind him. After confirming once again that the red ball of fur had not caught up, he breathed a sigh of relief and barked, "Woof woof, woof woof woof, woof."
"Really, son? That guy didn't chase after us?" Hearing his son's words, Xu Dashan felt a great weight lifted from his shoulders. His tense nerves relaxed, and his pace unconsciously slowed down.
Just as Xu Dashan relaxed, Xu Hengji on his back suddenly narrowed his eyes and barked rapidly, "Woof woof woof woof! Woof woof woof! Woof woof woof!"
"Huh?! They're catching up again! What Tarzan? Son, I don't understand what you're saying!" Xu Dashan accelerated wildly, his voice full of confusion.
"Woof woof woof woof!" Xu Hengji told his father to turn around and look, he didn't know how to describe it.
Xu Dashan was bewildered. "What's so hard to describe?" Taking advantage of the open space in front of him where he didn't have to avoid obstacles, he looked back and then his face showed an expression of seeing a ghost.
A muscular arm stretched out, its powerful hand gripping a branch, veins bulging, muscles contracting and writhing beneath the skin. With a loud shout, the arm's owner swung down to the next branch.
"You think you can escape my grasp with some little tricks?!" Tao Tao shouted wildly as he weaved through the woods. His body hadn't changed at all, but his small, baby-like hands had become thick and strong, looking like a pair of muscular man's arms attached to a red ball.
"What is this?!" Xu Dashan was completely flustered as he stared at the creature chasing after him. For some reason, he really didn't want to be touched by the hand that suddenly grew out of that red ball of fur. He would rather be eaten than be touched!
Driven by an inexplicable sense of fear, Xu Dashan sped up again, but to no avail. Under Xu Hengji's horrified gaze, the distance between Tao Tao and them continued to shrink.
"Haaah! Watch me lock her throat!" With a sharp shout, Tao Tao swung her arm forcefully and pounced down.
Xu Hengji's pupils dilated in fear, and his eyes reflected Tao Tao's pounce. The next second, there was a strange bark, and Xu Dashan, whose neck was being strangled by Tao Tao, lost his footing and fell to the ground. Xu Hengji was also thrown away.
"Stay away from me!!"
In the silent forest, a mournful howl echoed in all directions, startling the birds in the trees into flight. The sound continued to travel far and wide until it reached the ears of a group of beasts hurrying along.
"What's that noise?" Bixie, in his original form, stopped running. His tone was blank, and the sound he had just heard seemed somewhat familiar.
The three beasts, Baijie, Tianlu, and Feifei, located on the back of Bixie, shook their heads simultaneously, indicating that they hadn't heard clearly either.
