Chapter 21: Xiaoju

……

"Meow~"

"Okay, good, for you."

Seeing Xiao Ju's cute eyes pitifully looking at the piece of jerky that was about to be put into his mouth in his right hand, Zeng Yi reluctantly put the jerky that was about to reach his mouth in front of Xiao Ju.

Meow~

Xiao Ju didn't eat it directly, but walked to Zeng Yi's feet elegantly, rubbed Zeng Yi's heel with her cute little head, before expressing her gratitude, and then walked to the jerky, pressed the jerky with one front paw, lowered her head and began to bite and enjoy.

"I didn't raise you in vain." Seeing Xiaoju's appearance, Zeng Yi smiled helplessly.

"This is the last piece of jerky, and we'll have to go hunting. Otherwise, you won't have any meat to eat at night. ”

"Meow?"

Hearing Zeng Yi's words, Xiao Ju stopped her mouth, raised her head to look at Zeng Yi, and let out a puzzled meow.

"It's none of your business, eat yours!" Zeng Yi said angrily.

"Meow~"

Xiao Ju felt that this was indeed the case, so she ignored him and lowered her head to enjoy her food.

Zeng Yi found a stone, sat on it, and looked at Xiaoju quietly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

It has been more than four months since I picked up Xiaoju. I remember that at that time, Zeng Yi arranged cremation for Xiaoju's mother's body in order to prevent it from becoming food for other soul beasts. When Xiaoju saw that she was cremated, she was very angry and wanted to rush in to save her mother, but she was held down by Zeng Yi, and her mouth kept screaming.

Later, Zeng Yike, who took Xiaoju to his side, suffered a lot and was scratched by Xiaoju for a while. Don't look at its small appearance, it hurts to scratch people with its claws. After a month, their relationship eased. Gradually, as time went by, Xiaoju became closer and closer to Zeng Yi.

Don't look at Xiao Ju's small body, the size of two adult fists, but the food she eats is twice as much as her body. More than four months have passed, and I have eaten so much, but I haven't seen it grow physically, which makes Zeng Yi very strange.

But think about it, its mother is a thousand-year-old soul beast, and she is only about one and a half meters tall and tall, this little guy has been born less than a year ago, which is normal.

It seems that Xiao Ju will maintain this cute and cute appearance for a long time, which is great! At least I won't worry about Xiaoju turning into a big fat cat.

Since having Xiaoju by his side, Zeng Yi's travel life is not lonely, and Xiaoju is coquettish and cute meowing around him every day, and he is a lot more angry.

Seeing that Xiaoju finished eating, Zeng Yi stood up and stretched his waist, and suddenly felt refreshed.

"Xiaoju, we're leaving." Zeng Yi said with a chuckle to Xiao Ju.

"Meow~"

Xiao Ju heard Zeng Yi's voice, meowed, ran to Zeng Yi on all fours, and then jumped hard, landing on Zeng Yi's shoulder accurately, rubbing his cheek affectionately with his little furry head.

"Okay, don't be coquettish." Zeng Yi rubbed Xiao Ju's head melon and said.

"I hear the sound of the water, it looks like there is a nearby river, how about we go catch fish?"

"Meow~"

"Then it's decided, let's go!"

Xiao Ju got into Zeng Yi's collar, grabbed the collar with her front paws, and exposed her little head.

"Meow~" Xiao Ju screamed, indicating that it was ready.

Feeling Xiao Ju's hairy and warm body sticking to the skin on his chest, there was a little itchy feeling, Zeng Yi smiled, stepped on the soles of his feet hard, and ran forward at a very fast speed.

……

After shuttling in the forest for more than half an hour, Zeng Yi stopped.

"Meow?"

A small fluffy and cute head popped out on the collar of Zeng Yi's coat and screamed, as if asking why he stopped.

Xiao Ju looked ahead, a small river three or four meters wide appeared in front of her, the water flow was crystal clear, you could see the sand and gravel at the bottom of the river, the water was flowing in the river, and there was a sparse sound of flowing water.

The scene in front of her made Xiao Ju overjoyed, jumped out of Zeng Yi's collar, and ran quickly to the river.

"Hey! Xiaoju be careful. ”

Seeing Xiao Ju like this, Zeng Yi hurriedly called. Since there is a water source here, there may be soul beasts nearby, after all, the water source has always been a gathering area for living creatures.

But Xiao Ju didn't listen, walked to the shore, looked at the water curiously, and saw a figure reflected in the water, looking exactly like herself, Xiao Ju shook her head, and the figure in the water also made the same movement.

"Meow~"

Seeing this, Xiaoju was unhappy, raised the soles of her feet, slapped the surface of the water, and splashed all over the river. The cold feeling made Xiao Ju startled, and she quickly jumped back, shaking her body and shaking the water away.

Seeing Xiao Ju's embarrassed appearance, Zeng Yi was a little amused, but he was still alert to the aura around him to prevent being attacked by soul beasts.

Not good, dangerous!

Zeng Yi saw a white light, shooting at Xiao Ju at an extremely fast speed.

Sure enough, just said that it might be dangerous, and the next moment it worked.

When he found that the attack was attacking Xiao Ju, Zeng Yi's body moved, flashed to Xiao Ju's side in an instant, grabbed it with one hand, and jumped back quickly to avoid this attack.

I saw that the white light ray was empty, and landed on the position where Xiao Ju was standing just now, with a bang, Zeng Yi looked at it, and found that the place was frozen, with an icy aura, spreading to the surrounding frozen ground, and finally forming a frozen land of about five meters.

So ruthless! It turned out to be a frozen ray. Zeng Yi was secretly shocked in his heart, fortunately he reacted quickly just now, otherwise Xiaoju would have become an ice sculpture.

"Meow!"

The sudden discovery made Xiao Ju frightened and restless, and she writhed in Zeng Yi's hand and struggled.

"Don't move!"

Zeng Yi shouted, put Xiao Ju on his shoulder, Xiao Ju got into it neatly from the collar and hid.

Looking at the direction of the attack, he saw a huge stone by the river in the distance, coiled with a white snake soul beast, the snake kept spitting letters, and its cold eyes were staring at itself, obviously taking him as a prey.

Check out the soul beast information.

Soul Beast: Ice Spirit White Snake

Age: 632 years

Notes: The Ice Spirit White Snake is an ice-type soul beast that can shoot out freezing rays and freeze prey.

Is it a soul beast with elemental ability, but it's only a hundred-year-old soul beast, and it doesn't have much of a problem with itself.

Knowing the information of this soul beast, Zeng Yi said secretly in his heart.

Treating me as a prey is your biggest mistake.

Zeng Yi's expression was solemn, he took a step with his left foot, grabbed the scabbard at his waist with his left hand, bowed slightly on his back, held the hilt of the sword with his right hand, and spit out a mouthful of turbid breath.

Call~

Selfless Kenshin!

Zeng Yi looked at the dark and deep pupils of the Ice Spirit White Snake, which instantly turned silver, indifferent and ruthless.

Step on the ......

In an instant, Zeng Yi's figure disappeared in place, his figure as fast as lightning, flashing towards the Ice Spirit White Snake.

Chop!

Two sword lights flashed, and this snake soul beast didn't react, Zeng Yi had already appeared behind it. And this ice spirit white snake is body, which was also divided into three, fell to the ground, and the sand and stone by the river were stained with a layer of blood.

For those who regard themselves as enemies, Zeng Yi will never leave his hands, especially in this dangerous soul beast forest, as soon as he makes a move, he will go all out and not give the soul beast any chance to fight back. Who knows what special abilities they will have. If you are alone, you must not be careless, otherwise you will die.

In the past few years in the Sunset Forest, this is how he has lived.
