Volume 1 Qingyang Mountain Chapter 8 Seven Years Later
Deep in the Beast Forest, a fist-sized nest was built under the branches of the snow-white snow-trees, where the snow swallows stayed to comb their hair.
As soon as the swallow flew away, a pair of fox ears grew out of the snowdrift under the tree, and the "snowdrift" kept shaking until the snow covering it disappeared, revealing its original appearance - a fox with nine-tailed human body and animal ears.
But after seven years, the little fox's delicate and white cheeks became rough and red, and his black and white eyes exuded the dangerous aura of beasts, and he stared closely at the nest in the tree, and then exposed his slender limbs, and climbed up through the hollow part of the trunk.
There was nothing else in the nest except for a few feathers, and it was a fake nest made by the snow swallow to hide the real nest, which simply could not withstand the heavy snow. The entrance to the nest was facing the snow-white trunk of the tree, and a subtle sound could be heard from lying on it.
"Did you find it? If you can't do it, you will eat grass! Ben Rabbit reluctantly divides half of you! Snow Swallow is very cunning! The black rabbit was lying on top of the little fox's head, tugging at her hair, she was the first fox to climb the snow tree, but that didn't mean she could find the swallow's nest.
The little fox ignored the sound above his head, the bark of the snow tree was as hard as ice, and chiseling it would surely leave a mark. Remove the snow from the trunk of the tree, and under the cover of the snow, there is a circle of tiny small holes, where the nest of the swift is!
Lifting the bark, a warm wind blew from the hollow of the tree, which seemed to be warmer than the hole in the ground. In the hollow of the tree, two fledgling swifts are fighting for a snow bug, and neither of them will let go first.
"Found it?" The black rabbit let go of the little fox's hair and jumped into the tree hole, "This nest is good! It's a pity that it's too small for the big brother to live! ”
This rabbit thinks about moving out with the red fox every day to change the nest, saying that the male and female are not kissed, just want to leave her! The little fox poked the rabbit's head heavily and said dissatisfiedly: "Hungry, eat the rabbit!" ”
The black rabbit hugged the injured head, indignant, and thought about the bad fox who wanted to eat the rabbit every day! If he hadn't promised his eldest brother to protect her, he wouldn't care!
A dazzling flame appeared in the cave, and the crackling of charred feathers mixed with the heart-rending cries of two snow swallows rang out every day. Beasts that have not given birth to spiritual intelligence are the food of all demon beasts, and weak demon beasts are the food of powerful demon beasts.
She wanted to be powerful, and all the monsters as weak as her longed to be powerful, but they couldn't do anything about it. The rabbit said that this was their fate, and they could only accept it.
Sitting on the top of a snowy tree, through the staggered branches upwards, with a dull cloud overhead, and as a rule of thumb there was a heavy snowfall tonight, and they had to get back before night came.
"Xue Ji Pavilion! You can even see it here! The black rabbit stood on her shoulder and pointed to the pavilion standing in the wind in the distance, "I think back then, I was also a rabbit who ate spiritual chicken in it!" ”
Xueji Pavilion and Luoying Valley are two places, whenever she is about to forget, the rabbit will mention it. Why does the rabbit show a happy and proud expression every time it mentions it?
The memory of the demon beast has always been very good, and she can't face the past calmly like a rabbit and accept her fate. After learning the knowledge of the Red Fox Professor, she thought that she had become powerful enough to survive on her own.
As soon as she left the red fox, she was surrounded by a herd of beasts, and there was only a haircut between that death and her. Despite all the efforts that have been made, nothing will change. She was still too weak to outrun the wolves, or even catch up with the cunning rabbit beside her.
The rabbit said that it is the instinct of the weak demon beasts to follow the powerful demon beasts, and if they want to survive in the beast forest, they can only offer their loyalty and seek refuge.
"Little foxes, rabbits and foxes are not possible! You don't move your hands and feet! ”
"There's no way a rabbit likes a fox! You die before it's too late! ”
"If you really can't let it go, as long as you promise not to eat rabbits for the rest of your life, this rabbit will reluctantly keep you by your side to take care of rabbits and rabbits!"
The black rabbit lay in the arms of the little fox and couldn't help but sigh: he must be the only rabbit in the rabbit demon clan who can live for seven years under the mouths of two foxes! He is also the only one who persuades the fox every day not to eat rabbits and eat grass instead! If he doesn't enter the history of the rabbit demon, who will enter?
The little fox jumped off the snow tree and walked towards the fox hole. The rabbit will always say things that the fox doesn't understand, but he wants to beat him up.
In the distance, a fire sped through the snow, eventually stopping under a snowy tree beside them.
"Big brother!" The black rabbit waved its claws and rushed forward to pounce on the red fox's face. Since being rescued from a certain shipwreck, he has decided that Red Fox is his big brother for life!
"Lazy bunny!" The red fox glared angrily, always feeling that this rabbit, which was getting more and more rounded, was getting fatter and fatter, and the fox's face dared to rub! "Go down!" His face can only be touched by his little fox!
The little fox picked up the black rabbit and put it on his shoulder, rubbed the red fox's cheek, and said, "Are you ready ahead?" ”
"Han Gao and the bird clan are ready, thanks to those snow rat furs you collected, it will snow heavily tonight, and they will not be able to recognize it early tomorrow morning!"
Tomorrow is Demon Hunt Day. Over the years, the demon beasts have been hiding in Tibet, avoiding the monks, but the monks' actions have become more and more unscrupulous.
On the last demon hunting day, Han Gao's subordinate second-level wolf demon was captured by the monk, and he decided to take the initiative. First, he was afraid that the wolf demon would tell them all where they were hiding, and second, he had broken through the fourth level and could fight the foundation building monks.
So he gathered all the demon beasts above the first level in the Hundred Beast Forest and organized this counterattack. The demon beast ascetic cultivators have been cultivating for a long time, and now there are fourth-level demon beasts taking the lead in counterattacking, and they have responded to the call to participate in it, which is bound to drive those monks out of the Hundred Beast Forest and make them dare not step into the half-step again!
Obviously, those monks first abandoned them in the Beast Forest to fend for themselves, but now that they have adapted to life in the forest, they are going back to kill them all!
Keep if you want, kill if you want! You also have to weigh your own pounds!
"The eldest brother is the peak of the third level, and Han Gao is the fourth level, so he will definitely be able to drive them away!" The black rabbit gestured with his fists and feet, and the momentum of that punch was as if it was him who rushed ahead.
"Tomorrow you stay in the cave until I come back." The red fox rubbed the little fox's palm affectionately, and only when he saw that the little fox was safe could he go forward with peace of mind.
"Big brother, don't worry, I will definitely protect the fox demon!"
The little fox ignored the rabbit, and the cunning and lazy rabbit could not believe what he said, and he was the fastest one every time he encountered danger. Obviously round like a black ball, but still running so fast, she couldn't catch up at all.
Seeing the red fox leave, the black rabbit reluctantly looked away, "We have to rest early tonight and recuperate!" ”
"Why?" She didn't awaken and didn't have demon power, and he was the weakest first-level demon beast, so they were arranged to set traps before the battle, and after the war, there was almost nothing to do with them.
"The eldest brother is a fox demon, I don't know how many rat demons and bird demons have eaten, it is inevitable that after the war, there will be demon beasts who take advantage of the eldest brother's fatigue and hurt the eldest brother. Hangao also has to be guarded! As the saying goes, one forest can't accommodate two masters! Birds are hidden! ”
Why is it difficult for one forest to tolerate two masters? What is the Bird Bow Hide? I don't know where this rabbit heard so many strange words, and what did the rabbit demon's inheritance memories inherit?
"You stupid foxes don't understand, in short, we have to protect our big brother!"
Protect the red fox, she agrees.
The red fox is the most powerful fox demon in the Hundred Beast Forest, and the fox demon clan can't live without him. Only powerful demon beasts are qualified to live, and foxes like her, who have no way to become powerful, can only survive by offering their loyalty to seek refuge.
From the time the Red Fox was willing to shelter her, she had offered her loyalty.
I used to think that everyone should like her, protect her, and be good to her. Later, I learned that there was a reason. In Xueji Pavilion, those people approached her because they thought that she would become a powerful demon beast because of her extraordinary talent, so when they found out that she had no talent, they immediately abandoned her.
A demon beast without talent is equivalent to giving food to its mouth, and being abandoned is a matter of course, and no one can blame it.
The monk will hunt demon beasts, and demon beasts will also kill demon beasts, and demon beasts without talent are like ants on the ground, like fish on a chopping board, anyone can step on them to death and take a bite.
At night, heavy snow arrives. The little fox couldn't fall asleep after tossing and turning, so he simply lay down at the entrance of the cave and watched the snow.
In the past, every demon hunting day, they would find a hole full of snow rats or snow rabbits to hide, but tomorrow will be different, the monsters will take the initiative to attack, and everything is full of unknowns.
The messy footprints outside the cave have been covered in heavy snow. At one point she tried to remove all the snow from her territory, so she took the rabbit a whole day to clear the snow and expose the dirt, which was soon covered with snow again.
From the rabbit's mouth, she knows that every snowflake is different. Not only are the shapes different, but the functions are also different.
The snow that first fell was the vanguard and cannon fodder, and they fell on the ground to find the land to invade, to find out the enemy's situation, and to turn into water on it to leave a mark to lower the temperature of the ground.
Wait until the residual heat on the ground is gone, and then come the main force that is sprinkled with enthusiasm - the army of snow! In a few moments, the army will overwhelm the border, and they will occupy the entire forest.
The first invasion of the snow was completed, followed by patrolling the territory every once in a while.
Why did snow invade this forest? The rabbit said that it was to survive. Red Fox said that it rains or snows, and where it will fall, is not something that rain and snow can decide, and they have no consciousness.
Not being conscious means not being able to think, not being able to communicate. What the red fox said makes sense, imagine if every piece of snow could think and speak, and thousands of snowflakes would be chattering in the ears every day, and the head would blow up!
But the rabbit was right. The snow melts when it is hot, and if you want to survive, you can only find a cold place, what if there is no cold place? Just one after the other landed in the same place.
Sacrificing the minority to allow the majority to survive is the choice for the survival and continuation of the race. Just like if food is scarce, she will give it to the sturdy red fox, and then go on a hunger strike to ensure that the red fox can survive smoothly.
Powerful foxes can survive in harsh environments, find suitable places to breed and protect other foxes. And she can't become powerful, she is dispensable, just like the snow that falls to the ground first.
If the red fox is in danger tomorrow, she must save it and is ready to die for him. It was her mission to protect him and die for him, she had no ability, she lived by him, and the only thing she could do was to make death worthwhile.
Oh yes, if you can grow up smoothly, you will marry him in the future, and then have a few litters of cute fox cubs. He wants a litter of white foxes, she has no opinion, as long as it is a fox, she likes it.
Reproduction is the mission of every fox.
