Chapter 5: Saved by the Fire Fox
I don't know how long he soaked in the water, when he woke up.
The sun was already hanging in the sky, shining hot.
Yan Shaobei found himself lying on a bluestone slab by the river, and his head was still a little painful.
He sat up and took a closer look at his surroundings.
It was found to be the bottom of a valley, surrounded by high mountains.
There was only one river about 30 meters wide flowing out, and it seemed that it had fallen into it last night.
Then he was washed up on the stone slab on the shore to save his life.
Otherwise, you will either be crushed to pieces, or you will go to the king of Yama to report.
Yan Shaobei hurriedly looked through his pocket and found that the four thousand yuan was still there.
Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, if the money was gone.
It's a terrible thing.
He was looking around, looking for a way out of the mountain.
Suddenly, a fiery red mass was running towards him from afar.
Yan Shaobei almost didn't drop his jaw, wasn't this the fire fox he let go of yesterday when he was hunting in Baiyan Mountain?
How did this little thing end up here?
Yesterday in the mountains, I saw that it was very spiritual, one was unbearable, and the other was that I was afraid of retaliation for hurting this spiritual animal.
I let it go, and I didn't expect to meet it here, only to see the fire fox with a long branch in its mouth.
The branches were full of red fruits, and the fire fox was not afraid when he saw Yan Shaobei.
She came straight to him and put the fruit in front of him.
And squeaked at him, wagging his tail constantly.
It's as affectionate as seeing an old friend, and it's not timid at all.
What puzzled Yan Shaobei was that when he let it go yesterday, the fire fox's leg was seriously injured.
I still limp when I walked, and I couldn't imagine that it was only a day's work.
The injury healed so quickly that it didn't look like an injury at all.
Look at this fox so cute. Yan Shaobei couldn't help but stroke its head with his hand, and the little guy didn't dodge.
Instead, he rubbed his head on his hand, and it seemed that he was very grateful to Yan Shaobei for letting it go yesterday.
After a moment of intimacy, the fire fox moved the fruit in front of him.
Yan Shaobei saw its intentions, and this fruit was picked for him for breakfast.
Presumably, the fiery fox knew that he was lying here, and then went to gather wild fruit for him to eat.
This little thing really has a conscience.
The fire fox also saw Yan Shaobei's thoughts, jumped on the big stone slab, and made a pulling motion with his mouth towards the river.
Look at it Yan Shaobei was washed up by the river, just happened to be discovered by the fire fox.
You pulled him up the slate with your mouth, did you save me?
Yan Shaobei looked at it in surprise, this fire fox was not modest at all.
He nodded with a proud look in his eyes, looking very accomplished.
It seems that I was really rescued by this little guy, and I thought it was a big luck and was washed up on the stone slab by the river.
Yan Shaobei was so excited that he hugged the fire fox and kissed him several times on the forehead.
The fire fox kept urging him to eat the fruit quickly, and tossed it all night.
Besides, I didn't even eat dinner yesterday, and my stomach was already growling with hunger.
Yan Shaobei grabbed a fruit and washed it with river water.
Put it in your mouth and bite it, looking at the crisp and smooth fruit, it must be sweet and delicious.
But after taking a bite, Yan Shaobei was extremely disappointed.
Not only is this fruit not sweet at all, but it also has a bitter taste.
He was about to spit out the fruit in his mouth, when the fire fox saw this.
Hurriedly waved his front paws at him, as if he wanted him to swallow.
How can such an unpalatable fruit be swallowed, isn't this guy picking these fruits for him to satisfy his hunger?
Seeing that the fire fox's leg that was pinched yesterday is now intact, could it also be that it heals by eating this fruit?
Seeing Yan Shaobei hesitating with the fruit, the fire fox waved his front paws at him again.
Motioned for him to hurry up and eat, this little guy picked these wild fruits and it seems that he really healed my wounds.
Yan Shaobei had to swallow these bitter and astringent wild fruits indiscriminately, when he finished eating this bunch of wild fruits.
His tongue was so numb that he couldn't speak, and his head was in a terrible pain just now.
Now I feel slowly relaxed, and I only feel a fire burning in my belly.
Although the fruit is difficult to swallow, it is very effective in healing physical wounds.
I was beaten yesterday, and my face was swollen like a pig's head, and the pain was unbearable.
After eating the fruit picked by the fire fox, the pain slowly disappeared.
The eyes that were still confused just now gradually became clearer.
Seeing that Yan Shaobei finished eating the fruit, the fire fox was very happy.
Can you take me out of the mountains? I got lost yesterday and fell down this river.
Yan Shaobei looked at the fire fox.
Firefox nodded, indicating yes.
and motioned for Yan Shaobei to follow behind it, that's all.
Yan Shaobei trotted all the way behind the fire fox, and walked through the mountains and forests for about five miles.
Running to a cave, Yan Shaobei was a little puzzled.
Didn't this little creature take me out of the mountain?
The fire fox saw Yan Shaobei stop and squeaked at him.
Yan Shaobei understood what the fire fox meant, and told him not to be afraid.
Just follow it, and this little guy won't hurt me anyway.
It doesn't hurt to follow it, Yan Shaobei followed into the cave and walked forward for about fifty meters.
The sunlight could no longer shine here, and the five fingers were no longer visible.
What the hell is this little guy going to do? What if you go down and fall into a pit if you can't see the road clearly?
Yan Shaobei used to go to the cave to play, and he knew that there were usually many pits in the cave.
At this point, the fire fox stopped.
and no longer heed him. Alone he was digging up the ground with his front paws, only to make the hole dusty.
Half an hour later, a pit of about two meters deep was dug into the ground.
A square red box half a foot long and half a foot wide was vaguely visible, and the fire fox waved its front paws in the pit.
He seemed to be very excited, and picked up the red box and jumped out of the pit.
There was a squeaky sound towards Yan Shaobei.
Meaning to ask him to take the box, Yan Shaobei was curious.
What did this little thing do with me?
But I still took the box, and saw some strange patterns carved on the outside of the box.
Yan Shaobei had never seen it before, and the fire fox motioned for him to open the box.
Could it be that the little one is going to give me a box of jewels to repay the kindness of letting him go yesterday.
Yan Shaobei felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, if it was really a rare treasure.
Then I will be developed, and I will take it to the jewelry market in Beijing or Shanghai for an auction.
If you have any luxury house and luxury car, then you still need to go to any university.
Thinking of this, Yan Shaobei's heart was pounding with excitement.
I opened the red box full of hope, and my heart stopped beating instantly.
He was disappointed by the contents of it, not to mention the jewelry, not even half of the iron piece.
What kind of medicine does this little thing sell in the gourd? Could it be that he has been busy for a long time just to let him see this broken box?
Yan Shaobei really wanted to beat this little guy, isn't this a waste of expression? Seeing his disappointed look.
The fire fox squeaked at him, as if to tell him not to be disappointed, there was still content in it.
But the red box was clearly empty, and there was nothing in it.
I told you to take me out of this mountain, but you brought me to this cave to make some broken wooden box.
Yan Shaobei was so angry that he threw the wooden box on the ground, and saw Yan Shaobei throw the wooden box on the ground.
The fire fox was so angry that he scratched his ears and claws, and kept waving his claws at him.
It means that he should quickly pick up the box, or Lao Tzu will scratch you to death.
After all, this little guy saved his own life.
was embarrassed to really fight it in the cave, so Yan Shaobei had to pick up the wooden box.
Could it be that there is really any secret to this wooden box, Yan Shaobei carefully observed this wooden box.
He kept knocking around, and found that there was a layer of hidden compartments inside, and he opened the hidden compartments.
There was a book about two thumbs thick inside, but the material of the book was not paper, it seemed to be an animal skin soaked in oil, and the shell of the book had turned yellow.
Could it be that this is like the plot in Old Man Jin's martial arts novels, a peerless martial arts secret book? Yan Shaobei carefully took the book in his hand and flipped it up.
But it's not any boxing, sword moves. Instead, a lot of people were drawn, and there were a lot of dense tadpole-like words, which I didn't know at all.
Yan Shaobei has never seen it.
It is as if the content of the book is divided into three parts.
In the first part, these people fiddle with various movements, such as the radio gymnastics they usually do at school.
Radio gymnastics have been done for years, what is the use of these things for me.
The second part is some weird movements, which are obscure, and there are some dense tadpole words underneath the actions.
I think it's the gist of these moves.
The third part is full of tadpole text, written I don't know what it is, densely packed with a large area.
Yan Shaobei didn't have the patience to look at it any longer.
Do you want me to practice these moves? can become a martial arts master, what are you kidding, this made Yan Shaobei extremely disappointed again, and the fire fox nodded at him.
motioned for him to put the book away, and he had to put the book away a hundred unwillingly.
If it weren't for the fact that the fire fox saved his life, Yan Shaobei would really fight with him.
Seeing Yan Shaobei put the book away.
The fire fox put the red box back into the pit, and then dug up the earth and buried it, and restored it to its original state.
