Xie Qian found the cave when he was about to be buried by the heavy snow and immediately squeezed into it. The cave was so dark that the bulging rocks nearly tripped her up.

It was cold inside, and the wind mixed with the snow drifted in and smashed on her hands like knives.

Xie Qian hugged the fox tighter, but he still couldn't stop his trembling body.

The fox who was about to be strangled by her struggled helplessly, and sighed with a dying sigh: "Butterfly demon, don't you use fire to keep warm?" ”

"I won't." Xie Qian pouted with a look of grievance, "And I'm not called a butterfly demon, it's so ugly." ”

The fox rolled his eyes several times in a row, and suddenly regretted bringing her out. It struggled to jump off her neck, telling her that she could draw a talisman on the ground by biting her finger and gathering the power to summon fire.

When she was in Yaochi, she heard Qingbi say that many immortals could summon wind, fire, water, etc. through certain methods, and she was very envious of this. Now that I heard that I could do it too, my eyes immediately brightened and I was eager to try.

She put her finger in her mouth and bit it hard, and immediately blood dripped down her slender finger. The pain sent chills down her body, but she still frowned and drew talismans on the ground.

After the first stroke, she withdrew her hand in pain, rubbed her fingers and said depressedly: "It's so painful, I don't want to try it, you better come." ”

"Because you're not used to it, it's going to hurt." The fox said lazily, "I just used the puppet talisman to bring you here, so I don't have the extra strength to start a fire." ”

You deserve to mess with your spells.

Xie Qian protested in his heart for a while, but still gritted his teeth and endured the pain to draw talismans on the ground. Because of the pain, the whole talisman painting was crooked, and it didn't look decent at all.

When the fox saw such a talisman for the first time, he closed his eyes in despair and said helplessly, "Try the spell." ”

Despite his suspicions, Xie Qian followed the spell of the Fox Sect and began to recite it. Unexpectedly, as the spell fell, the talisman actually flashed with fire, and a fire rose in a short time!

Her eyes sparkled, she tugged at the fox's tail, and said happily: "Look at it, it's amazing that there is really a fire!" ”

"It's amazing." The fox didn't expect it.

Xie Qian leaned over his hands and feet triumphantly, as if he had become a demon with superior spells. Her body gradually warmed up, and she narrowed her eyes with satisfaction: "It seems that I have a lot of cultivation talent, and I should find an immortal sect to learn the arts." ”

The fox on the side was still lying on the ground enjoying the warmth, but when he heard this, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly: "What's so good about immortals?" ”

"Immortals can go to the sky and the earth to hoe the strong and help the weak, isn't it very majestic?" Xie Qian said this, her eyes were full of longing. She thought that if Yaochi really didn't want herself, she would go to Xianmen to learn art.

The fox seemed to be very angry, and turned his head away with a straight face: "Maybe you've heard about immortals devouring the blood of youkai to cultivate spells, right?" After a pause, he continued, "What they love to devour is fox blood. ”

Only then did Xie Qian come back to his senses, stared at the fox in surprise, pointed to its scars all over his body, and said, "In other words, were you chased and killed by immortals?" ”

"They don't have that yet." The fox snorted coldly, "There is someone else who is chasing me, and I don't know who it is." ”

Xie Qian held his chin and thought about it, but he still couldn't help asking: "I always wanted to ask you, are you a demon or something else, why can you break into Yaochi, and there will be such a powerful person chasing you?" ”

The fox did not answer a series of questions, and the look on his face was as if someone else owed him.

Seeing that it refused to speak, Xie Qian looked at it, sighed leisurely, and changed the topic: "Speaking of which, I don't know what your name is." It looks like we're going to be together for a long time, and I can't always call you a fox. ”

The fox still refused to speak, and closed his eyes as if asleep.

It's simply impossible to communicate.

Xie Qian pouted and leaned against the stone wall, thinking nonsense with his eyes closed.

In the dead of night, the snow fluttered outside the cave, and only the flames in the cave flickered. She didn't know if she would be worried about being thrown out like this, whether she would be able to go back and continue to live with them in the future.

The more I thought about it, the more sad I felt, and I gradually fell asleep in this mood.

By the time she woke up again, the flames had been extinguished, the snow outside had stopped, and it was getting bright.

She slowly walked out of the cave, and when she raised her eyes, she saw the sun shining on the snowy mountains. The white snow is covered with a layer of gold, like falling into a golden ocean on earth.

Xie Qian couldn't help but be stunned, he didn't expect the outside world to be so beautiful.

"Looks like we're on our way again." The fox said this and walked from behind, already taking on the appearance of a teenager.

After a night's rest, his face returned to normal. He took out a heavy cloak from behind him and handed it over, and said lightly: "This is what I conjured with a talisman, I don't know how long it can last." ”

Xie Qian looked at it suspiciously, and there was a strange feeling when her fingers touched it. She felt a warmth in her heart, took the cloak and said, "I didn't expect you to care about me so much!" ”

The contempt in the fox's eyes was undisguised: "I think you misunderstood, if you get sick, I will be in trouble." ”

“……”

Xie Qian regretted that he had expectations for this fox, and put on his cloak with a curse. In the blink of an eye, the fox had already run out a few steps, slipped and fell to the ground.

Ignoring the need to laugh at her, Xie Qian walked over and stretched out his hand to him, and said with a smile: "Little fox, sister will take you away." ”

The fox was stunned for a moment, but still took her hand. Rising from the ground, the two walked side by side in the snow, leaving behind them two rows of footprints of varying shades, occasionally overlapping each other, but never returning.

He secretly glanced at Xie Qian, felt the temperature of her palm melt between his fingers, and couldn't help asking, "You call yourself sister, how old are you?" ”

"Although I look like I'm only a teenager, I've actually been cultivating for thirty years!" Xie Qian made an exaggerated expression.

The fox sneered and said, "Then it seems that you want to call me brother, I have been cultivating for thirty-one years." ”

Deliberately, absolutely deliberately! How can you be so coincidentally a year older than yourself?!

Xie Qian gritted his teeth, clenched his palms and said angrily: "Why do you still have an eleven or twelve-year-old face, you are obviously lying to me!" ”

"We foxes live longer than you butterflies, and our natural faces look younger." The corner of the fox's mouth hooked, and then said, "Also, my name is Mu Chengye, you can call me Ye Ye in the future." ”

I didn't expect him to say his name so usually, Xie Qian nodded dumbfoundedly, and then muttered in a low voice: "Ye Ye? Grandfather? She reacted and immediately bared her teeth, "Who are you taking advantage of!" ”

Mu Chengye didn't expect her to react so slowly, and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

It was the first time he had laughed so unbridled since he could remember, and happiness overflowed his chest.
