There is a beast in the bright morning.

Bixie waited all night in the chicken coop of the Qilin, but Tianlu did not return. Unable to resist the sleepiness, he fell asleep among the chickens.

The next morning, the four-legged creature, humming a tune, arrived at the chicken coop carrying a basket: "A beautiful day begins, let's go to the chicken coop and collect an egg first."

However, when the Four-Faced Beast opened the door to the chicken coop, it saw a group of chickens piled up together. But the Four-Faced Beast didn't care what its chickens were doing gathered together, as long as they obediently laid eggs for it.

"Did my chicks lay down obediently...?! What is this thing? Whose tail is it!?"

The four-legged creature pawed at the flock of chickens, trying to find some eggs, but suddenly touched something furry. The four-legged creature was startled: "What is this? It doesn't feel like an egg. Could something have run into my henhouse and stolen eggs?"

The thought of this possibility made the Four-Unlikes frown. It was always the Four-Unlikes who benefited, and no one had ever dared to take advantage of him.

Determined to find the egg thief, the four-legged creature began to pull hard on its tail.

A flock of chickens kept clucking, trying to remind the Qilin that they were protecting the evil spirits, but unfortunately the Qilin was not the older brother and could not understand chicken language.

Bixie was sleeping soundly among the chickens when he was suddenly awakened by the movements of the Qilin (a mythical creature), and then he discovered that someone was touching his tail.

Not wanting to be discovered, Bixie ignored the Qilin, thinking that the Qilin had probably just accidentally touched its tail and would let go soon.

Unexpectedly, the Qilin not only refused to let go, but instead took advantage of the situation and pulled the Qilin away from the flock of chickens by grabbing its tail.

The Qilin was also a little confused. It looked at the red tail in its hand and felt it was very familiar. It seemed like it had seen it somewhere before: "This tail, this feel, it's just like Pipi's. Could it be..."

The four-legged creature already had a guess in its mind, but it dared not think any further. At this moment, the four-legged creature twisted its somewhat stiff neck and looked up along the tail in its hand.

What came into view was Bixie's cold and indifferent gaze. At that moment, the Qilin felt a chill run down its spine, and a sense of crisis overwhelmed it: "Oh no, isn't that Pipi's brother? What's he doing here! Qilin, what have you just done? Is he going to eat me?"

"Can you let go of my tail?" Bixie asked calmly, looking at the Qilin that was still holding onto his tail.

However, to the Qilin, the Bixie was saying angrily, "If you don't let go of my tail, I'll eat you."

The four-legged creature's paws trembled as if it had Parkinson's disease, and it struggled to release the tail of the evil-repelling beast: "Um, Pipi's brother, what are you doing here?"

"Pipi? Is he talking about Tianlu?" Pixie wondered to himself.

As for the fact that the Four-Faced Beast knew he was Tianlu's brother, Bixie assumed that Tianlu had told the Four-Faced Beast, so Bixie wasn't surprised that the Four-Faced Beast knew his identity.

However, Bixie explained, "Because I can't be seen by too many people, I'm waiting here for Tianlu to return."

"Hehe, is that so? Then you can continue waiting here. I won't bother you anymore. See you later!" After saying that, the Qilin ran away in a flash, afraid that if it was too slow, it would be killed and eaten by the Bixie with a single claw.

Bixie looked at the Qilin that seemed to be running away and was very puzzled: "Tianlu's friend is so strange."

However, seeing that it was already dawn, Bixie decided to go out and see if Tianlu had returned. If he had, he would hurry back into Tianlu's belly to avoid being discovered by the Heavenly Court.

On the other side, Tianlu kept yawning: "I've been up all night and haven't caught anything. I need to go back and take a nap."

Hao Chen, carrying Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao on his back, also looked somewhat helpless: "Alright, Tian Lu, stop complaining. Didn't I also stay up all night with you? It's all Walnut's fault for not recognizing that rat hole as Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao's home."

When Walnut saw Haochen blaming her, she became unhappy and blamed everything on Golden Horn and Silver Horn: "It has nothing to do with Walnut. Who told that rat hole to not have a nameplate? Walnut didn't know that rat hole belonged to Golden Rat and Silver Rat."

Golden Horn said loudly, "Let me reiterate, we have names. We are Golden Horn and Silver Horn, and we are immortals of the Heavenly Court."

After Golden Horn finished speaking, Silver Horn continued, "Besides, we are not rats; this is just our disguise."

Hao Chen turned to look at the golden and silver horns on his back: "Speaking of which, you were living comfortably in the Four-Unlikes area, so why did you have to come out and dig a hole?"

Upon hearing Hao Chen's question, Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao immediately burst into tears, leaving Hao Chen at a loss: "Hey, hey, hey, why are you crying? I didn't bully you. You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to."

Silver Horn choked up and said, "Yes, it's Fourth Boss. You know we used to live in the hamster cages that Four-Unlikes prepared for us, but Fourth Boss actually wants to charge us for our lodging."

After a pause, Silver Horn continued, "The wages paid by the Fourth Boss are already low, and we also have to pay for accommodation. At this rate, my brother and I don't know when we can redeem our horns."

After hearing Silver Horn's explanation, Hao Chen understood why they were digging rat holes outside to live in; they simply couldn't afford the accommodation fee. Sure enough, this attempt to charge for accommodation was quite bizarre.

Just then, Hao Chen, with his sharp eyes, spotted a red figure flash by in front of him and was immediately horrified: "Could this red figure be Bi Xie? He hasn't returned to Tian Lu's belly yet."

Hao Chen had thought he had no chance of getting the Bixie, but unexpectedly the Bixie was still outside. Hao Chen's mood became excited: You ran into the Bixie by yourself, so you can't blame me, hehehe!

"Ahem! Tianlu, you and Walnut go back first, I'll go find something to eat." Haochen casually made up an excuse to send Tianlu and Walnut away, after all, it's best not to let too many people see the evil spirit.

Seeing Hao Chen say this, Tian Lu didn't suspect anything: "Then Hao Chen, Walnut and I will go back first. Remember to bring back lots of food."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm here, you and Walnut won't go hungry." Hao Chen reassured Tian Lu and the others, then let Jin Jiao and Yin Jiao get off his back, and he ran towards the direction of Bi Xie.

And so, Tianlu and Walnut, along with Golden Horn and Silver Horn, parted ways with Haochen. Tianlu said, "What do you think Haochen will bring back? Could it be ingredients for chicken stew with mushrooms?"

"Walnut likes to eat fish. It would be great if Haochen could catch a big fish."

"Waaah, my brother and I love nuts, I'm afraid Haochen won't bring any back," Silver Horn said sadly.

Seeing that Silver Horn was sad, Golden Horn quickly stepped forward to comfort him: "Little brother, it's alright. We still have the nuts we saved from last year to eat."

The little Charmander left standing there was dumbfounded: "Wait, even though I'm not a Charizard now, I'm such a big little Charmander, and none of you saw me, right?"

The little fire dragon looked in the direction Hao Chen had left: "Big brother, did you discover the Evil-Repelling Sword? But big brother can't beat the Evil-Repelling Sword at all, no, big brother can't beat the Evil-Repelling Sword at all, how could little brother possibly beat big brother!"

Then Little Fire Dragon shook his head, feeling that it wasn't proper for a younger brother to run over and watch his older brother get beaten up, so he decided to go find War Tiger instead.

On the other side, seeing that Tianlu was still with his friends, Bixie could only follow behind.

Bixie was still thinking about waiting for Tianlu and his friends to separate so he could find a chance to return to Tianlu's belly, completely unaware that he was being watched.
