Chapter Seventy-Seven: Picking Up a Follower
Are you a fox?"
Finally, the owner of the voice revealed his true body, which turned out to be a white-haired mouse the size of a palm, with a pale gray stripe on its back. Standing on his feet, a pair of big bright eyes kept turning, such a humane expression, at first glance, it was not an ordinary mouse. That's of course, who is the average rat who can talk.
That's right, this rat is Ziyu who escaped from his underground castle. It's just that this time the voice is no longer so ethereal, with a hint of anger, after all, whoever asks someone several times will be a little angry if they are not answered.
"It's rude, I'm angry!"
Ziyu's princess's temper suddenly flareed up, and two white gases emanated from her tiny nostrils. I thought she would leave, but I didn't expect her little eyes to keep rolling, observing the surroundings, as if she was looking for something.
"Found it!"
Sure enough, Ziyu went straight to a certain location on the tree. It turned out to be where the trap of the trapping net was, that is, where the rope was tied. Although Ziyu didn't know about animal traps, it didn't prevent her from identifying the key to such devices.
It's not surprising that Ziyu doesn't know the trapping net, after all, the hole in this thing is too big, and it can't catch Ziyu's very petite body at all, and no one generally catches mice, and this kind of creature is generally not included in people's recipes, except for the recipes of creatures like cats, their natural enemies. Unless this kind of person is idle and boring, and wants to satisfy his bad taste. But if you really talk about it, this rat really has a dish of Cantonese cuisine that uses them as the main ingredient and appears on the Chinese menu. It's just that the rat in this recipe is a newborn hairless mouse, which is a simple method and a way to eat it, but the process is very cruel and outrageous. It is also known as one of the real dark dishes, and most people dare not eat it, and they don't want to eat it, mainly because it hurts the heavens and the peace. But there are always people who like this tone and enjoy the feeling of squeaking to satisfy their perverted hearts, of course, this is just an opinion, if there is any similarity, it is pure coincidence.
"Hmph, let you ignore me!
It turned out that Ziyu was planning to break the rope of the trapping net and let Hu Mao fall from mid-air, but unfortunately Ziyu didn't know that this would get Hu Mao out of the trap in the trapping net, and this malicious move inadvertently saved Hu Mao.
There was a grinding sound, and the ropes tied to the trunk began to break at a speed visible to the naked eye. If there is no mistake, the material of the entire beast trap net is the same, originally Hu Mao could not hurt it in the slightest with his sharp claws, and it would be damaged under Ziyu's teeth, it is really shocking, it seems that the sharp teeth of the mouse are not in vain, not to mention that the race of Ziyu is the holy family of the mouse world, which is really worthy of the name.
"Smack!"
There was a sound, the rope broke, and then there was another sound, Hu Mao's whole body with the trap net and the ground came to an intimate kiss, fortunately the ground has a layer of my turf and leaves as a bedding, otherwise it will stir up a layer of dust, after all, Hu Mao has to be five or six meters away from the ground. But the whole process only takes a few seconds, which is very fast.
"Oops......!"
Hu Mao first felt a burst of pain, and then suddenly woke up, stood abruptly, and made a defensive posture, obviously remembering his situation at this moment, and immediately thought that the hunter who had set up the trap was coming. But he thinks too much, it's really silly and funny.
"Poof! You're so funny, you're a fox but you learn to bark like a tiger!"
Ziyu looked at Hu Mao who was embarrassed in the trapping net, and couldn't help but be amused by Hu Mao's behavior. It's a bit of a low laugh.
"Who?!"
Only then did Hu Mao come to his senses, but he looked around but did not see any hunter, nor did he feel the hunter's breath and malice.
"Hmph! It's me! I really didn't expect your skin to be so thick, I didn't even fall to your death!"
Ziyu suddenly put on an angry look, and his words were also very polite.
"You, a mouse?!"
Hu Mao looked at the place where the voice came from, only to find a white mouse crawling on the trunk of a tree on the side, but this angry face made him feel a little inexplicable, and he didn't know why.
"What's wrong, you have an opinion?!"
Although Ziyu is a mouse, she is full of arrogance, holding her chest up, if she turns into a human body and puts on a green outfit, she must be heroic and sassy, and she looks like a woman.
"No, no, no opinion!"
Hu Mao was stunned and a little shy. Although I don't know why the mouse in front of me has such an attitude, as a guy with a very keen perception, I can feel that it must be related to me, so my momentum is weak.
And, to be honest, Hu Mao rarely comes into contact with female creatures, and there doesn't seem to be any other woman who has contact with him except for his mother. After all, in the land of the fox clan where he lives, he can be regarded as an outlier, and he has always been a target of bullying, how could other female foxes take the initiative to contact him, let alone him take the initiative to contact other female foxes, it is fortunate not to be killed. Of course, it would be a lie to say that there are no other female creatures, after all, there are some flying insects or something, and it is inevitable that there will be some females among them, such as blood-sucking female mosquitoes. So it can be regarded as the first time to come into contact with a real female creature other than the mother, and it is inevitable that I am a little nervous and shy.
"Hmph, I'm your savior!"
Seeing Hu Mao in such a state, Ziyu suddenly became even more arrogant. Although her original intention was to "fall to death" Hu Mao and teach him a lesson, but she saved Hu Mao in disguise, although it was not her original intention, but after all, it could be regarded as saving Hu Mao's life, there is no doubt about it.
"Yes, yes, thank you!"
Hu Mao nodded hurriedly, although he had fallen from mid-air, he was still in the trapping net, so his movements seemed a little funny.
"Poof!"
Seeing this, Ziyu couldn't help laughing out loud, proving once again that her laughter was very low.
"For the sake of your sincere attitude, I'll help you again!"
Ziyu came to Hu Mao in the trapping net, and the speed was really staggering, which made Hu Mao also startled.
"However, in the future, you will be my little follower and repay me for saving my life!"
Ziyu suddenly rolled his eyes again, and couldn't help but have a plan, after all, he had escaped, and he was unfamiliar with life, so he just needed a guide, and it seemed that the stupid fox in front of him was very suitable.
But Ziyu didn't know that it was a roe deer, not a fox, that was stupid. The fox is notoriously shrewd, but she stumbles upon a fox who is not a fox, a very stupid one.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Hu Mao's face flushed, and he nodded and agreed. After all, his mother taught him that the grace of a drop of water should be reciprocated by a spring, let alone the grace of saving lives.
"Poof!"
Ziyu was amused again, and almost got angry, but fortunately, it didn't affect her to bite off the trapping net.
In this way, Ziyu had an extra follower who was many times bigger than her, and this strange combination of rat and fox was born!
