Chapter two
During the days when it snowed heavily in winter, Sanxi suddenly had a whim to light a fire for the little fox and put it in the middle; thinking that the weather was cold to keep the little fox warm. The poor little fox's red fur almost didn't get burned. It was still the beginning of spring that the fox was not afraid of the cold, and their own fur could keep warm and cold. Since Sanxi knew that the fox's fur could keep warm, she held it all day long, as if she wanted to use it as a warmer.
A few days later, I thought that the fox was eating chicken. I was afraid that it would be vegetarian all day long and worried that the little fox would not get used to it. I specifically asked the beginning of the Autumn Festival to catch pheasants in the mountains and gave them to the little fox, and I also specifically asked to catch the big one. However, the chicken was caught back, but it seemed that it was too big.
So, that day everyone saw a red fox being chased by a pheasant. After seeing it, Sanxi said, "As a fox, it was chased by a pheasant, but it was still a fox that had been practicing for more than 800 years. It was too useless." The people around him suddenly burst into laughter and forgot to rescue the little fox.
Another day, Sanxi suddenly remembered something, said to the little fox in the warm stove in her arms, and asked, "You said you have been practicing for more than 800 years, why have I never seen you use magic power? And you seem to be inferior to an ordinary fox, and you will be chased by a chicken."
When the little fox heard this, he thought to himself with depression: It has been so long since you noticed that I have no magic power! He replied: "I am different from other foxes. Although I have no magic power now, when I cultivate into a human form, my magic power will be the strongest among all the fox tribes, which is also what the leader of the fox tribe must experience."
"But you are so weak now that I can kill you with just one finger; don't say that when you cultivate the Nine Tails, I'm afraid you will be killed as soon as you were born." Sanxi held the little thing in his arms and said.
After hearing this, the little fox in his arms said hurriedly: "No, every clan leader of our fox clan; from birth, he was protected by the clan leader at that time, until the next clan leader cultivated his human form and took over the great responsibilities of the fox clan."
"Oh." Sanxi responded lightly, not seemingly interested.
When the little fox heard this, he seemed to feel despised and then added: "Don't underestimate me, our Red Fox clan; every eight thousand years, there will be a fox, generated by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It takes nine hundred years to cultivate nine tails to turn into a human form. At that time, this demon world may not be able to compete. Therefore, our Red Fox clan will be the strongest in the demon world."
"Although he is the strongest, isn't he still exterminated?" Sanxi added lightly.
"Hmph!" The little fox seemed to be angry and jumped out of Sanxi's arms. He threw down the sentence "When I practice to become an adult, I will avenge my clan and rebuild my clan!" and ran out.
A few days later, Sanxi was reading a book under the tree; suddenly sighed, and Lichun asked, "Why did the master sigh, but what's wrong with me?"
Sanxi shook her head and said, "The book says that the fox clan; both men and women are born beautiful, with elegant manners, and every frown and smile is all charming." After a pause, he looked at a fox happily holding the fruit and gnawing; he continued, "It can be seen that what the book says should not be believed."
A fox with juice on his face was stunned and his mind was full of thought: Is Sanxi thinking that I am ugly? No! She didn't say I am ugly; and I am not ugly, even the leader said that I am the most beautiful little fox in the clan. She must be talking about others; well, that's it. The little fox who figured it out continued to chew the fruit with peace of mind.
Sanxi looked at the fox who was staying next to him for a while and continued to gnaw on the fruit happily. He immediately started to tease and raised his voice to Lichun beside him and said, "Look at me, this fox, when I first picked it up, it wasn't very good-looking, but at least I could recognize it as a fox, which was not like now! Hanging a few beads can make people thrown into a hydrangea ball."
This is not a mistake for Jiuwei. After coming here with Sanxi, he only ate better every day, and sometimes he even ate some desserts. In addition, it was winter again, so he was too lazy to move. The little fox became rounder day by day.
A fox who was gnawing fruit heard this, and he didn't know if the fruit fell, and his mind was repeating: Ball, ball, when did I become fat as a ball? I didn't become fat as a ball. I immediately jumped up to refute.
Unexpectedly, when I looked up, I saw a faint smile on the corner of Sanxi's mouth, looking down at it.
That was the first time that Jiuwei saw Sanxi after coming here. The little fox looked at Sanxi blankly, and she looked at it with a smile on her face. It seemed that it was the only one in her eyes. She forgot to say anything to refute.
That dinner, Sanxi saw that the food was almost cold; but she still didn't see the little fox and asked the others: "Where is Jiuwei? Why aren't you here yet? Isn't you counting it as hard as you eat on weekdays?"
"We don't know this either." Lichun replied.
"Lixia, go and have a look." Sanxi said to Lixia next to him.
"Yes, master." Lixia heard this, bowed and walked out of the room.
After a while, Lixia came back and walked to Sanxi and said, "Master, Master Jiuwei said it; if it is not hungry, it will stop eating."
"Since that's the case, let's not care about it; everyone sit down and have a meal." Sanxi said after hearing the answer
"Yes." After hearing this, everyone sat around the table.
Sanxi picked up a dish casually, put it in his mouth and tasted it, and said to Lixia: "Lixia, your cooking skills are getting better and better."
"Of course, master; although I don't do anything else well, I have to do with cooking skills; there are probably few people in this world who can compare to mine." After hearing Sanxi's words, Lixia answered proudly.
"You, my master praised you, your tail is almost overturning to the sky." Lichun glanced at Lixia and said helplessly.
"It was, Liqiu, did you think so? Was it?" Lixia turned her head to Liqiu on the side in dissatisfaction and asked.
"Yes." Li Qiu, who was eating quietly, heard this, replied softly, and buried his head again; ate quietly.
After hearing this, Lixia excitedly said to Lichun: "I heard it, even Liqiu admits that my cooking is delicious."
Hearing Lixia say this, Lichun said: "You only dare to bully the honest Liqiu, why don't you ask Lidong?"
After hearing this, Lixia looked at Lidong, then shook her head and said, "Forget it, I don't dare." Then he quietly leaned closer to Lichun's ear and said, "You don't know, you're within half a meter of him, and you feel that the temperature has dropped."
"Okay, OK, stop making trouble, let's have a meal." Sanxi saw that they were making trouble and didn't even know how to eat, so she spoke out to stop it. Only then could she finish a supper quietly, otherwise, she wouldn't know when it would be a fuss.
After dinner, Sanxi sat at the table and read a book after taking a shower. Lichun quietly wiped her hair behind her. Suddenly, Sanxi put the book on the table and said to Lixia behind her: "I see that the night is so beautiful today, go and ask everyone to go to the yard to enjoy the moon."
"Yes." After hearing this, Lichun stopped wiping and walked out the door.
"By the way, let Lixia make some snacks." Lichun was about to step out of the room when he heard another sentence from Sanxi.
In the yard, accompanied by the hazy night, a little cool night breeze; a group of people sat in the yard, playing chess while the moonlight was playing in the moonlight; hiding on the trees and playing flute after the beginning of winter; Sanxi sat on the side to drink tea, and the beginning of spring was still as usual, following Sanxi. There was also a little fox with a depressed spirit.
Sanxi put down the teacup, looked at the listless little fox squatting at his feet, and reached out to it and said, "Come here."
After hearing this, the little fox looked up at Sanxi; he actually turned his body over and left a tail for Sanxi.
Sanxi looked at the little fox's actions and felt a little helpless. He bent down and stretched out his hand to hold the little fox into his arms and said, "Do I spoil you too much? I dare not even listen to my words? Well!"
The little fox glanced at Sanxi and said pitifully: "You even dislike me as fat and ugly, why are you hugging me?"
Sanxi touched the little fox's silk-like hair and said, "I don't dislike you. What I said to Lichun in the afternoon was just a joke, but you were really angry."
After hearing this, the little fox raised his head and looked at Sanxi's eyes with a little suspicion: "Isn't it really not? You're not lying to me, aren't you?"
After hearing the little fox's words, Sanxi suddenly felt a little amused and reached out to point the little fox's nose and said, "Of course, when did I deceive you?" As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sound of "gu~gu~gu~gu~" in his arms.
When the little fox heard the sound, he immediately lowered his head in shame. Sanxi heard the sound, picked up a piece of snack from the table, fed it to the little fox's mouth, and said, "Eat it!" The little fox also answered, opened his mouth and bit it, and started eating it voraciously.
Seeing that the little fox had finished eating one piece, Sanxi took another piece; then fed it, and said while feeding it, "I didn't expect that you, a small little thing, have a very big temper." As soon as he finished speaking, Sanxi felt a tingling pain in his hand; the pastry in his hand fell to the ground immediately; and then two drops of blood beads emerged.
Lichun next to him saw it and hurriedly wrapped the bitten fingers with a handkerchief and asked, "Master, are you okay?" The little fox, who knew that he had caused trouble, immediately lowered his head and stopped talking.
Sanxi waved her hand and said to Lichun, "I'm fine, no need." Then she looked at the little fox, and before Sanxi could speak, the little fox took the initiative to admit his mistake: "I'm sorry, I was wrong."
"Oh, then where are you wrong?" Sanxi asked back after hearing the little fox's words.
"I shouldn't have bitten you. I just wanted to bite you gently, but I didn't want to bite you." The little fox said with his head down and depressed.
"Since you know you're wrong, you don't have to eat this snack anymore. I'm tired, the beginning of summer, the beginning of autumn, and the beginning of winter. You've almost finished playing, so go back and rest." After Sanxi said this, he got up and walked into the house. The beginning of spring followed closely.
