Short Stories Before Bedtime

It was another dark, windy and murderous night, and a down-and-out scholar caught a rabbit.The scholar has a handsome face, his sleeves are cool and his stomach is hungry, the rabbit's body is white and soft, and its two red glass eyes are looking at the scholar innocently.

The scholar sighed helplessly, and finally let it go soft-heartedly, and picked some edible wild fruits.

When the scholar returned to his luggage, he looked back and saw that the little rabbit followed him back.

"Little rabbit, what are you doing with me?"

The scholar pulled the little rabbit away and pushed it to make it go farther.

after awhile……

"Why are you back again? Why are you shivering? Are you cold? Alas... Forget it, just warm yourself by the fire with me!"

The rabbit approached the scholar, its drooping ears seemed to be shaking happily, climbed up the scholar's crossed legs, found a comfortable position, turned around twice, and lay down.

The scholar laughed, the animals in this mountain are not afraid of strangers.

In the early morning of the second day, the scholar continued on his way, and after a further walk, he arrived at the county town, so he would not have to sleep in the suburbs and starve.

Looking back accidentally, there is a tuft of white fluff in the bushes, isn't it the rabbit from last night!

"Little rabbit, why are you still following me? I have no money, so I can't afford to support you."

The rabbit's ears twitched.

"Wow! Who hit me with something? Hey! Where did this money come from!"

The scholar looked up, but there was nothing but the lush leaves, so the scholar put away the money.

"Little rabbit, my luggage was stolen..."

The rabbit raised its paw and scratched several times on the ground.

"Little rabbit, I found my luggage. Someone gave it to me just now, but I don't know what happened to him, his nose is bruised and his face is swollen."

The rabbit lowered its head and licked its fur obediently.

"Why is it suddenly so hot today, I'm so thirsty."

Rabbit sneezes.

"Oh my god, where did the flood come from, help~"

Rabbit rubbed his nose.

"Oh...it's hot, is there a stove burning in the ground?"

"Rabbit, why did you fly... What, you are a great immortal... In the previous life? To repay the kindness? No matter what, there is no harm."

"Oh, this road is so difficult to walk, and the shoes are worn out, if only there is a carriage..."

The rabbit moved its ears.

"Huh? This carriage is so delicate, is it okay for me to sit in it? Will my body be too dirty..."

The rabbit climbed onto the scholar's shoulders, raised its front paws and hooked his clothes.

"Ah, this, is this not very good, the bandits will be summoned... what, the bandits here were beaten away by you, that's okay, just wear this set... ouch, one meter long The hem of the clothes is too long, why don't I just wear the original clothes."

"I set up a stall today, and as soon as I put it up, my calligraphy and paintings were sold out, and I made a lot of money, Rabbit Daxian, I bought you a basket of carrots, do you like it... oh, those who don't eat... Hey! Is it really okay to eat less, why do you eat so painfully... Wow! You look so cute when you eat."

"An ordinary writing brush doesn't cost gold, so how can people find it..."

"This is an out-of-print book, is it really for me?"

"Nosebleed, oh, you gave me too many tonics, and the load was too heavy, so I took them all..."

"What, what?! Number one scholar? I thought Jinshi and the rank were enough for me..."

"The Prime Minister's Third Miss invited me to Hongye Terrace tomorrow, Daxian Rabbit, do you think it's suitable for me to wear this outfit..."

Rabbit blinked in surprise.

"Oh, it was the matchmaker brought by the eldest princess. She said that I should have reached the age of marriage..."

The rabbit blinked thoughtfully, jumped onto the scholar's lap, found a comfortable position, and curled up.

"Daxian, it's raining, the third lady said to change the time..."

"Miss San was robbed when she went back yesterday, but she was fine. She was rescued by the hero in white. She said that it was the hero in white who would not marry in this life..."

"The eldest princess wanted to marry her little niece to me, but she became a monk the next day..."

"Miss Zhang disagreed with my life and death, and wanted to hang herself..."

"Miss Zhao..."

……

"Great Immortal, the Eldest Princess doesn't dare to be my matchmaker..."

"Daxian, now all the females walk around me, calling me evil..."

"Daxian, I guess I will die alone forever, but fortunately I have you by my side"

The rabbit jumped to the ground, white light flashed.The rabbit disappeared, replaced by a man with silver hair, red eyes, and a beautiful face, with a huge fluffy foxtail dangling behind him.

"Big, big, big fairy, you, you, what, aren't you a rabbit..."

The white fox stretched out his slender fingers, and lifted the scholar's chin: "White foxes and rabbits are indistinguishable, who can be blamed?"

The scholar dodged to the side.

"Why hide from me, I won't eat you again."

The scholar hid to the side again.

"The last time I was unconscious and unintentionally turned into a human form and used my hands on me. The one under me is you? Why, you don't want to be responsible."

The scholar continued to hide to the side.

"It is said that the grace of saving life should be promised by body. I have saved you so many times. What should you do?"

The scholar pastes it on the wall.

The white fox circled him: "I have already prepared for the marriage. My relatives and friends at home have been waiting for a long time. Come with me, little scholar."

About postscript:

The ministers of the court disappeared for no reason, and the Ministry of Criminal Justice couldn't find the original one, so they summed it up with the four words of being captured by a demon, and filled the mouths of the crowd. After a long time, the people eating melon seeds at the small stall are still talking talking about it.

"Hey, it's just Mr. Xiao Zhongcheng, you know."

"Who doesn't know him, didn't he say he was captured by a monster?"

"That's all bullshit. It was Mr. Xiao Zhongcheng who captured the monster."

"????"

"I have a cousin, that's right, that's the one. Didn't he go to the south for business last month? He said he saw Mr. Xiao Zhongcheng... Hey, come here, I'll tell you secretly, I heard Mr. Xiao Zhongcheng Holding the monster's ears disappeared in an instant, and the monster didn't dare to move."

"Oh, so that's the case, Mr. Xiao Zhongcheng turned out to be a demon exorcising master, really powerful."
