fox fur is not warm

After Taotie and Qiongqi parted ways, they didn't rush back home, but turned around to the pile of black dragon bones.The little fox might still be angry with it, since it was put back on the back by Taotie, it has been lying on its stomach without making a sound.

I don't know if it's because of the little fox's silence, or because of the resentment at being accused of unnecessary crimes by the Xuanwu clan, the more Taotie looked at the pile of bones, the more angry he became.

After a while, Taotie slammed the pile of bones into pieces with a slam, but heard a loud roar, startling countless birds in the forest in the distance, and pieces of scattered white bones rustled down in the air. After a long time, the movement subsided slowly. .

But he said that after that Taotie had such an attack, he didn't know why, and his annoyance remained undiminished.Seeing that the little fox still didn't move, Taotie let out a long sigh of relief, and called out in as gentle a tone as possible, "Qiaoqiu, come down."

Reluctantly, the little fox raised its head from the long hair around Taotie's neck, and didn't respond, it just slid down slowly along Taotie's forelegs, and walked up to Taotie.

The Taotie thought that the fox would be noisy, but he didn't expect it to be so quiet, and when he sensed something was wrong, he lowered his head and looked.

I saw that little fox opened a pair of red and swollen eyes, and his expression was full of grievances.

"..."

The four eyes are facing each other, and the two are speechless.

Seeing that the little fox's bright black eyes were gradually filled with water, for some reason, Taotie's heart tightened, and without thinking about it, he picked up the little fox and held it up to his eyes.

As they got closer, the weeping became louder.

Taotie didn't know what distressed him, but he also knew that he should comfort this little guy at this time.So it leaned forward, nudged the little fox's body with the tip of its nose, and asked half jokingly and half concerned, "Why are your eyes still red? Who bullied you?"

The little fox pursed his lips and didn't want to answer, but how did he know that after hearing Tao Tie's words, the more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved, so he yelled, "You give me back the paint!"

After saying that, it opened its teeth and claws and rushed towards Taotie.

Although the little fox is still a baby at this time, it still hurts to be scratched by that paw.

Taotie hastily moved it away, but did not put it back underground.It was rare to be patient, and coaxed, "The rabbit just went to the banquet with Qiongqi, and you will see him again in a few days."

But the little fox didn't believe it, "Liar... That wild pheasant is clearly going to eat him!"

"Old Taoist, can I catch you a rabbit again?"

"I want to paint seven! I want to!"

As a result, Taotie felt annoyed, its eyes darkened, and just as it was about to explode, it saw the little fox sobbing again and asked, "Will Tu Qi really come back?"

Taotie replied again, "Yes."

Only then did the little fox slowly stop crying, it wiped away the snot and tears in Taotie's palm, then raised its paw and said to Taotie, "You swear."

But I don't know who I learned how to do.

But the Taotie was on all fours, and now one of its front paws was raised to hold the little fox up, and there was no room for the other paw, so it could only say dryly, "... Lao Tao swears."

Not long after, Taotie saw the little fox pouted, fearing that the little guy was going to make a fuss again, so he had no choice but to touch the little fox's paw with the tip of his nose, as a "high five".

That's it.

……

Let's say that after the Taotie and the little fox walked away, waves appeared on the originally smooth water surface.After a few breaths, the bones that had sunk at the bottom of the pool floated to the surface one after another, gathered together, and were piled back to the shore, reverting to the initial pile of bones.

Upon closer inspection, the instigator turned out to be a brown and white hedgehog.

The hedgehog put the dragon's head on the bone pile, looked around for a while, and then slipped back into the pool, swimming to nowhere.

A heap of bones was left standing in its place.

……

Although the little fox values ​​love and righteousness, his mind is not sound after all. Taotie doesn't mention it, and it doesn't say anything. After three meals, "Tu Qi was abducted" has long been forgotten, and he played with Taotie again. stand up.

Last time Taotie made a promise with Qiongqi to go to the Great Wilderness to find it, but he didn't intend to put it into practice in the short term. The monsters near Mount Gouwu were enough for him to eat, so he wanted to think about it later.

The Xuanwu clan was quite peaceful, Taotie met them several times from a distance, but they were not criticized.

As time went by, Taotie took it as Qiongqi and intentionally frightened it, and didn't pay much attention to it.

Recently, Taotie has been quite keen on weighing the little fox.The so-called weighing is nothing more than scooping it up and weighing it in the palm of your hand.

But it found that the little fox seemed to have stopped growing, and this became the top priority for Tao Tie to worry about.

After it gave the little fox extra meals, took a walk, exercised... and tried many methods, Tao Tie suddenly belatedly remembered the scene when the little fox met Tu Qi for the first time.

——The fox seems to eat meat?

Thinking of this, Taotie suddenly realized.

One day, Taotie talked to the little fox.

Taotie: "Do you want some meat?"

When the little fox saw that Taotie was facing a formidable enemy, it was rare for the little fox to put on a serious look.After thinking for a while, it nodded very seriously, "Think."

But in fact, no matter how gluttonous asks it what it wants to eat, it will always get the same answer.

The glutton in this room didn't know, he thought he had found the right way, and asked again, "Then what do you want to eat? Chicken? Duck? Fish?"

The little fox nodded like a pest: "Yeah!"

"..."

Taotie was silent for a while, seeing the expectant look on the little guy's face, he decided on the menu decisively, and left the cave after saying "wait for me, go and go."

Only the little fox stayed where he was, thinking about what kind of fruit this "chicken, duck and fish" was.

……

As I said before, due to the gluttonous appetite, there are a lot of big and small monsters in the vicinity, but after all, the mountains and rivers are beautiful here, and it is not difficult to find some mountain delicacies that have not yet developed their spiritual wisdom.

Taotie came out of the cave, and not long after, he found a chicken coop.Just as it was thinking about which one would be the freshest and most plump to feed the little one, it smelled a strange smell of foxes.

Without thinking too much, Taotie turned around and was about to reprimand the little guy for running around disobediently, but he saw a red-haired fox with a chicken in its mouth sitting not far away, trying to walk away.

Taotie was rarely curious, so he asked, "Who are you?"

The red-haired fox hesitated to answer, but was reluctant to give up the pheasant in its mouth. After hesitating for a moment, he still hugged the chicken in his arms and replied with a smile, "I... I'm just a little demon here. Come out to look for food, I don't want to offend you, Grandpa..."

The pheasant held in the arms of the red-haired fox still had two bloody holes on its neck. After the fox finished speaking, the pheasant seemed to agree, crowing with its neck stuck, and finally passed out.

The pheasant is not the point.

Taotie stared at the red-haired fox for a moment, silently came to the conclusion that "it is not as good-looking as his own ball", and then asked, "Is this wild pheasant your food today?"

The red-haired fox didn't know what Taotie's intention was, but under pressure from Taotie, he could only say cautiously, "This is just a meal..."

Taotie: "What do the cubs eat?"

The red-haired fox took a step back silently, "...should be the same as me."

Taotie: "Can I eat fruit?"

Another step, "...Maybe it is possible."

The red-haired fox saw that he was only an inch away from the bushes behind him, and he would be able to escape in a few moments. Thinking of this, his eyes lit up a little bit, and he hugged the pheasant in his arms even more tightly.

But Taotie got an affirmative answer, and after pondering for a while, he stopped asking.

The red-haired fox looked at the evil god anxiously for a long time, and when it suddenly fell silent, it thought that it had escaped a catastrophe, so it was ready to run away.

It's just that before it took the step to escape, it saw Taotie attacking it with a bloody mouth.

The next moment, it was complete darkness.

Taotie swallowed the red-haired fox whole, and after a while, he coughed dryly and spat out a ball of blood-stained red fluff.The ball of fluff floated unsteadily in the air for a moment, and then was trampled into the mud by Taotie.

Taotie was quite disgusted: the taste of this red-haired fox was not one-ten-thousandth that of the little fox.

After being distracted for only a moment, Taotie looked again at the chicken coop not far away.

……

The little fox looked at the pile of pheasants brought back by Taotie, and blinked inexplicably, "Give me...to eat?"

Taotie calmly responded, expressing his affirmation.

Because Taotie himself likes to eat live animals, most of the pheasants brought back this time still had a trace of vitality, and a few strong ones fluttered their wings and wanted to escape.

For a moment, chicken feathers flew around in the entire cave.

The little fox likes to be lively the most, seeing this scene now, he also started to make a fuss.

It excitedly circled around the pheasants several times, and after careful selection, it dragged out a "son of heaven" from among them.

At first, the little fox was a little afraid of the half-dead pheasant, but perhaps the bloody smell floating in the air activated the instinct of a beast, and gradually began to feast on it.

Not long after, a whole pheasant was dismantled and eaten by the little fox.

"full?"

"Ok!"

The little fox wagged its tail, lay down on the ground, and hiccupped in satisfaction.

So, the rest went into Taotie's stomach.

……

At this point, Taotie thought that harvesting a fat and stored food would be just around the corner, but he never thought that the little fox would suffer a serious illness after being contaminated by the meat, and even almost lost his life.
