"Then, in order to avoid being noticed, I will call you Ah Jiu from now on."
"May I?"
The little white fox glanced at Xiao Xiao strangely. Didn't this human call it that before?
And it didn't object.
…
Xiao Xiao rubbed the nine-tailed fox's head again. Seeing the other person's hair about to explode, he smiled with a bit of joy, "Ah Jiu, please take care of me from now on."
…
Thinking that a new page of monster illustrations had been added to the monster manual, the smile in Xiao Xiao's eyes deepened.
He had never realized before that he had a mild collecting habit.
Xiao Xiao was very interested in increasing the number of illustrated pages in the Demon Book.
Moreover, not only the illustrations, but also the various monsters he met, if conditions allowed, he always wanted to "abduct" them and raise them.
Of course, it is limited to those monsters with "three correct views".
It doesn't require them to be very kind, as long as they don't take the initiative to cause trouble and harm humans.
As for monsters that cause harm to the world and harm human lives, just treat them as food for the monsters.
…
The nine-tailed fox tilted its head and looked at Xiao Xiao for a while, feeling that the human in front of it gave it an interesting and dangerous impression, and then it felt a little strange.
But, it's really fun, isn't it?
In the darkness, the nine-tailed fox's long and narrow eyes were raised at the end, and there was an interesting smile in the clear and round eyes, which made the eyes even more radiant and dazzling.
"Well, I will take care of you."
For the sake of you getting me so interested.
The nine-tailed fox made his promise.
…
"hehe."
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud, because the Nine-tailed Fox made such a "shameless" speech.
Seeing the confusion and unkindness in his rose-red eyes, Xiao Xiaoqing coughed a few times, and then whispered: "Then...thank you, Ah Jiu."
There was still a slight smile in the voice that was somewhat hoarse because it was deliberately lowered.
…
The nine-tailed fox snorted proudly, but there was a bit of a smile in his eyes.
Xiao Xiao's performance on the road made him quite satisfied.
…
"Ouch~"
Taotie glanced at the nine-tailed fox up and down with squinting eyes. The eyes under his armpits widened at first. After noticing the gaze of the nine-tailed fox, Taotie's eyelids slowly drooped, and he couldn't close his eyes again.
Closed appearance.
Because most of his power was sealed, Taotie didn't actually feel anything different about the fox in front of him.
It wasn't until Xiao Xiao introduced it that it suddenly realized that it was a nine-tailed fox.
It's a youkai that you can compete with... and the one you once had.
...
But now, it can't even see through the opponent's disguise.
Taotie looked at his little paws somewhat depressedly.
If it pounces on it, it will probably be beaten away by this fox if it meets it, right?
Thinking this way, Taotie's mood became even worse.
I don't like the nine-tailed fox no matter how I look at it.
If it were in its heyday, it would not be certain who was strong and who was weak.
Taotie screamed several times in frustration.
…
The nine-tailed fox rolled his eyes and understood the reason for Taotie's dark complexion.
It's just that knowing is one thing, understanding is another.
The majesty of the nine-tailed fox cannot be challenged.
It glanced over and directed away at Taotie's overwhelming pressure.
…
Taotie instantly felt like he was stuck in a quagmire.
The more you struggle, the deeper you sink.
Watching himself being gradually devoured but unable to do anything about it, this feeling made Taotie's eyes, which were like the abyss of the underworld, become more and more dangerous. Black flames suddenly appeared, and there was no trace of warmth in the churning flames.
The darkness and coldness in Taotie's eyes deepened further.
It has lost its strength, but it will never be as defenseless as a weak person.
…
Xiao Xiao tapped the little white fox's forehead with his finger.
Taotie felt the overwhelming majesty recede like a tide. Just when it was about to soften due to relaxation, a hand lifted up the back of its neck.
Taotie turned his head and looked blankly, it was Xiao Xiao.
…
Xiao Xiao placed Taotie in the corner where it always slept.
Noticing the needle-like gaze on his face, he turned to look at the rose-red eyes that were becoming more dazzling because of his anger, and couldn't help but reach out and rub the other person's head.
"Okay, stop bullying the little Taotie."
"Its power has been sealed and cannot withstand your pressure."
…
The little white fox angrily shook off Xiao Xiao's hand.
Huh, who told that glutton to provoke it first?!
…
"Also, little Taotie, you are wrong too."
Xiao Xiao patted Taotie's head, who was lying on the bed, "You all know that you are no match for Ah Jiu now, so why are you trying to die?"
…
Taotie tilted his head and remained silent.
The eyes under the armpits had been closed without knowing when.
Xiao Xiao was a little amused, but he didn't bother it anymore.
…
"It's getting late, let's rest."
After thinking about it, Xiao Xiao added another sentence, looking at the little white fox and said: "You can rest whenever you want."
"Just don't affect my rest."
…
Xiao Xiao lay down.
Feifei consciously lay down next to Xiao Xiao's neck, with his tail covering his body, and his little body curled up into a ball.
…
The nine-tailed fox looked at everyone who was resting, and found a comfortable corner to lie down and sleep.
It misses its carved bed a little bit.
It was really the first time for him to sleep on such a shabby bed.
The little fox showed a very human expression on his face and curled his lips in disgust.
Although as a nine-tailed fox, its need for rest is already very low, but seeing everyone looking like they are having a good dream, it is rare that it feels a little sleepy.
Soon, dormitory 417 became completely quiet.
…
The next day, Xiao Xiao was the first to get up in the dormitory as usual.
Probably because of his cultivation, he used to have some trouble getting up early, but now he wakes up when the time comes, with clear eyes and no trace of sleepiness.
After washing up, he was about to go out and looked at the nine-tailed fox lying on the bed, "Ajiu, do you want to go for morning exercise with me?"
"Or do you continue to rest?"
…
The nine-tailed fox looked at Feifei and Taotie, who had already automatically stayed at their fixed positions. After thinking about it, he stood up and jumped towards Xiao Xiao.
Xiao Xiao raised his eyebrows and reached out to catch the little white fox.
Although in his heart he actually preferred to let Ah Jiu stay in the dormitory, yesterday's experience was still fresh in his memory.
The enthusiasm of the girls made him a little overwhelmed.
However, it's still early and it's a weekend, so there won't be many people on campus.
Moreover, since Ah Jiu wanted to go, he naturally had nothing to say.
…
Xiao Xiao hugged the little white fox, turned around, closed the door, and walked towards the stairs.
…
No matter how many times you breathe in, the morning air still makes you happy with its pure smell, like a new life.
It was as if my whole body had been purified and refreshed, and I couldn't help but feel happy.
