Chapter 273: White Fox

Shen Shi stood on the snow and looked at the white fox for a moment, once again feeling a little familiar, as if he had seen this fox there. He took a few steps forward and approached the white fox, which flinched and stepped back a little, looking a little afraid.

However, perhaps because Shen Shi had just saved its life under the sharp claws of the ghost blood wolves, this white fox seemed to look at him a little differently, but he didn't immediately turn around and run away, but always kept a distance from Shen Shi. Shen Shi glanced at the white fox a few times, and saw that it was always hovering in the distance, so he didn't bother to pay attention to it, turned around and walked forward directly.

The rest of the journey went much smoother, and there were no more accidents, generally speaking, except for strange things like ghosts, monsters and all kinds of beasts would not run out of their lairs in such a cold night. It's just that I don't know what happened to the white fox just now, could it be that he stayed in the nest and was discovered by those ghost blood wolves, so he had to flee in the middle of the night?

Shen Shi thought like this while walking, and suddenly his heart moved, but he remembered that when he was in a coma a few days ago, Zhong Qinglu and Xiao Hei took him to a hillside on the snowfield, but they drove away a snow fox and then occupied its cave as a resting place. At that time, Shen Shi himself was unconscious, but after he woke up, he heard Zhong Qinglu tell him about it, and vaguely remembered that he seemed to have woken up once for a short time and quickly fell asleep again, but in the middle, it seemed that he had vaguely seen a white fox fleeing away.

"It can't be such a coincidence, can it?"

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, stopped and looked back, but only to see the snow-capped wind and snow blowing behind him, but he didn't see the figure of the white fox just now, and he didn't know where it had gone after a while? After a moment of silence, Shen Shi also shook his head, thinking that the snow field was so big, maybe he thought too much.

So he ignored the matter and walked all the way, and after walking like this for almost an hour, he finally found the resting cave marked on the map given to him by the Venerable Master.

Walking into this cave, the place is not big, but it is very dry, the solid cave wall blocks the wind and snow outside, and then uses a few wooden planks originally stored in this cave to block the entrance of the cave, leaving only a little gap for ventilation, and suddenly I feel that this cave is much quieter and warmer. Shen Shi habitually rubbed his hands, then took out the wishful bag given by the Venerable Master of Heavenly Bitterness, and took out some of the firewood inside, as for the flint that was carefully prepared, Shen Shi ignored it.

With a "poof", there was almost no sign of warning, and he looked as if he had just flicked his finger slightly, and a flame suddenly flickered out of his hand, forming a flaming fireball suspended above his palm. Looking at this fireball, Shen Shi's face was a little strange, and his expression was a little complicated, and after a while, he suddenly sighed softly, and then threw this fireball onto the pile of firewood.

The flames were stained with firewood, and in an instant they burst into light and began to burn, and the whole cave was suddenly illuminated by the firelight, and quickly warmed up. Shen Shi found a clean stone wall and sat on the ground with his back against him, originally wanting to sleep and rest, but as soon as he closed his eyes, there were always countless thoughts swirling in his heart, passing in front of him one by one, and he didn't feel sleepy.

He could only sit silently in this cave, there was a cold and snowy land outside, and it seemed that he was the only one left in the whole world, and he seemed extremely lonely.

At this moment, he suddenly heard a few small noises from the sound of the wind and snow outside the cave, as if some wild beast was calling. Shen Shi frowned, thought for a moment, stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave, moved the wooden plank and looked out. By the light of the fire in the cave, he looked carefully for a while, and then saw that in the white world of wind and snow, about a few feet away from this cave, a white fox was standing there.

This white fox looked a little familiar, needless to say that it was the one that Shen Shi rescued from the ghost blood wolves just now, but he didn't expect it to quietly follow him along the way and follow him all the way here. Shen Shi took a closer look at the white fox and found that the white fox's fur was snow-white, almost exactly the same as the surrounding snow, if he didn't distinguish it carefully, it was really difficult to see clearly, no wonder he didn't see it immediately when he first came out. When I wanted to follow behind me before, it was because of this and the fox nature that I was cautious, so I was not discovered.

It's just that what does this white fox do with itself?

Shen Shi was a little puzzled, stared at the white fox for a while, and found that the vigilance in the white fox's eyes still existed, but his body trembled slightly, and his eyes kept looking at the cave behind him. The warm, dry cave that shimmered with fire was obviously a great allure for the beasts that lived in this snowy field.

Shen Shi was silent for a moment, then gently let go of his body and pointed his hand into the hole.

The white fox took a cautious step forward, but immediately stopped, looking at Shen Shi a little nervously.

Shen Shi didn't care about it anymore, and turned around and went back to the cave by himself, only this time he didn't block the planks at the entrance of the cave again. The sound of wind and snow outside the cave was still terrible, Shen Shi sat by the fire and waited quietly, about a tea time later, a white shadow appeared and disappeared at the entrance of the cave, and then reappeared, after wandering like this for a while, the white fox stared at Shen Shi with both eyes, and slowly stepped into the first foot of the cave.

"Bang", a muffled sound, sounded in front of the white fox, but it was a thing smashed from the depths of the cave, the white fox was startled, jumped up and turned around and ran, but after a while, its body suddenly paused, but the fox turned its head suspiciously to look, and then found that the bone on the ground rolled for a distance was a piece of dry food cake that Shen Shi threw over.

In the past, Shen Shi and Xiao Hei didn't eat this thing, so they didn't bring this thing, and the reason why they are there now is naturally from the Ruyi bag given by Master Tianku. In fact, the fox likes meat a lot, and if it is a meatloaf, it is probably more to its liking. However, the Zhenlong Hall is a Buddhist temple, and it is a bit difficult for a strong person to take out the meatloaf over there......

Although it was not a meat cake, it was obvious that the white fox's eyes were instantly attracted by this dry food cake, and after staring at Shen Shi for a moment, it finally couldn't resist the temptation of this food, and pounced on it all at once, and then grabbed it and gnawed it violently.

Shen Shi sat by the fire, watching the scene of the white fox grabbing the dry food cake and hiding in the corner of the cave to gobble up, and couldn't help but smile, but for some reason, his smile slowly became a little lonely again.

I wonder what happened to Xiao Hei now?

Or perhaps, for so long, it turns out that the only ones who can really accompany themselves are these beasts......
