Chapter 45: Different Reactions to Emergencies
The riot has ended, but the fox group is still in a panic, because of the protection of the fog, many foxes have lived in a very safe environment since childhood, like this sudden situation, many people are still encountering it for the first time, that is, the extremely old fox has a similar experience, so it has the ability and experience to deal with such a situation, like absinthe can rely on his own composure to react to what he should do young foxes, there are really few. Among the young foxes, the only ones who have the courage to maintain order are Absinthe and Qingyue.
The foxes swarmed out of the gate and ran to their homes in a hurry, some of them tried to stop them, but they couldn't stop the surging flow of people, so they had no choice but to retreat to the side.
In the blink of an eye, most of the more than two hundred foxes had disappeared, and only a few dozen of the more daring ones remained next to the big house.
At the door of the big room, several foxes were gathered together, as if discussing something.
"So, can any of you explain what happened?" asked a fox who looked like a middle-aged uncle with a solemn expression, and it could be seen from his expression that he was very dissatisfied with the commotion that had just occurred, and in fact he was the one who had just stopped the panicked foxes from leaving, but unfortunately he failed.
"I remember there was a scream outside, and then everyone was in a mess. A fox said, everyone nodded, and many people heard the scream.
"It was the little imp named Cotton who was the first to pick the head, and that reckless fellow spilled the soup on my feet!" said a fox angrily, as he lifted his feet up to show everyone that the soup had indeed been spilled on it.
"Nonsense! Obviously, you stepped on my feet first!" a fox immediately retorted, and he didn't look weak, he covered his feet, and his face showed a look of pain, and he didn't know whether it was real pain or fake pain.
"I didn't step on it!" "You stepped on it!"
Once the dispute began, there was a momentum that could not be stopped, neither of the two foxes obeyed anyone, and neither of them refused to admit that they were the first to provoke the head, and soon, the quarrel became a voice competition that made sense for whoever had a high voice, and the voices of the two foxes became louder and louder, and the middle-aged fox who listened frowned.
"You're enough! Don't argue about this now! If you keep arguing, I'll clear the two of you and confine!" The middle-aged fox roared angrily, his voice was thick, directly overshadowing the voices of the two arguing guys, so frightened that the two foxes quickly stopped arguing, lowered their heads, and didn't dare to speak, it seems that the confinement really scared them.
"That is to say... No one knows who is screaming?" the middle-aged fox continued.
"I only heard the word 'monster' and nothing else. ”
"I was listening to Qingyue singing, but I didn't hear anything. ”
The foxes talked about what they had seen and heard, but they didn't discuss a single result, and in the end, no one had ever seen what the monster looked like.
"Now we should quickly find out the screaming fox and ask him what happened, and by the way gather all the inhabitants, there seems to be something bad in the village, and we must stay together to be safe. Unfortunately, I couldn't stop them all. Ignoring the little foxes who said a word to me, the middle-aged fox thought for a while, and then stated his thoughts to a gray-haired old fox, the old fox nodded and agreed with the middle-aged fox's opinion.
"I... Let's figure out what's going on!" Just as the middle-aged fox was thinking, from behind him, suddenly came the voice of a male fox, and the sound of chaotic footsteps.
Hearing that someone had brought new news, a group of foxes stopped talking, and turned their heads to look in the direction where the voice came, and three foxes were running in this direction from that direction, two of them were in human form, and they were running over panting with a small fox.
"Sister Qingyue, are you alright?" Someone immediately recognized one of the foxes in front of him, and it was a girl who made a sound.
One of the two foxes is Qingyue, and the other is Absinthe, and the two of them did not go back to their respective homes directly after going out with the large army, but ran to the kitchen to see if anyone had not left, and the location of the kitchen was not far from the big house.
Hearing that someone cared about her, Qingyue nodded quickly, dragged the little fox behind him and ran over, came to everyone, waved his hand, and then bent down panting, she was sweating profusely now, it seemed that she was running a little fast just now.
"We... Found him in the kitchen, he was the one who screamed at the time... We, after learning about the situation with him,... I hurried back. Qingyue's absinthe was also out of breath, but she still insisted on narrating it for everyone.
"What the hell is going on?" the middle-aged fox asked anxiously, looking at the little fox that had been pulled over.
"I... I was about to bring the food to the house when I found out... One... A white monster!" the little fox was also tired, panting and trying to remember.
"Tell me more clearly, what does the monster look like, and where did it go?" the middle-aged fox continued.
"It's about the same as when we were young, but it's white, and it's big!I'm so scared that I've hid in the kitchen, so I don't know where it's gone.," the little fox panted and lowered his head, as if he was feeling guilty for his timidity.
"Looks like we did when we were younger? Whose kid is playing pranks, like painting himself white or something?"
"No! it's really big, four or five times my size!" said the little fox, stretching his arms apart, and drawing a big circle, and his expression was very exaggerated. ”
After listening to the little fox's words, some foxes fell into a panic, and some foxes whispered, they obviously did not believe what the little fox said.
"We're going to have to tell Grandma about it, and call everybody over by the way. The middle-aged fox said solemnly.
"I'll go find grandma!" "I'll go too!" Absinthe and Qingyue volunteered, and the middle-aged fox and several elderly foxes looked at each other, nodded, and agreed to their request.
"Tonight, all the foxes will go to the main square to gather, you go from house to house, make sure everyone comes, in groups of two, don't be left alone!" The middle-aged fox gave orders to the foxes present one by one, and the foxes accepted his order, and then left together.
The middle-aged fox sighed, then cheered up and looked at the bright moon in the sky.
"Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night," the middle-aged fox sighed.
