The little fox does not want to hide the cub

Li Ruan just kept that mortal in the cave.

In the early morning, a nimble figure shuttled through the woods.Li Ruan jumped up from the branch, swept his tail vigorously at the treetop full of fruits, and then landed firmly.

The fruits were scattered all over the ground.

A piece of silk cloth was spread on the ground, Li Ruan lowered his head and picked up the fruits one by one into the cloth.

This cloth was pulled from the body of that mortal, and the indigo material was embroidered with cloud patterns. If there were any knowledgeable people present, they would surely be able to recognize that it was a treasure that the Western Regions paid tribute to the royal family last year. There were not many horses in the entire capital. .

But now, this thing can only tear up the package used to hold fruit for Li Ruan.

After packing the fruit, Li Ruan took the two ends of the fabric, trying to tie a knot on the package.

It is easy to make this action figure, but it is not so easy to replace it with fox paws.He tossed and tossed for a long time, grabbed one end and let the other end fall apart, but he couldn't tie the knot well.

Li Ruan fumbled for a long time, not only failed to do it well, but also made himself a little angry.

He sat down on the ground, grabbed a fruit and gnawed angrily.

Although Li Ruan doesn't like mortals very much, it has to be said that being a human is much more convenient than a fox.

Being a fox is troublesome.

"Li Ruan, what are you doing?"

A thin bird song came from above his head, Li Ruan was no stranger to this sound, so he looked back.A tit sits on a treetop, looking at him with black eyes the size of mung beans.

"Why are you still here?" Li Ruan asked it.

The winter in Changming Mountain is very cold. Most of the few food in the mountain are occupied by some powerful animals and monsters. The weak birds can only fly to the south for the winter.Although the chickadee in front of him has spiritual awareness, it will still migrate with the group.

"I won't leave this year." The tit hopped up and down on the branch twice, its tail feathers curled up, and its tone was cheerful.

Li Ruan just let out an "oh", and continued to play with his small package after eating the fruit.

The tit landed beside him: "Don't you ask me why I don't go?"

Li Ruan looked up suspiciously: "That's your business, why should I ask?"

"You..." Titmouse's eyes widened, looking very hurt.It took a deep breath and shook its feathers again, "Forget it, you're a stupid fox, I don't care about you."

Li Ruan didn't like being called stupid, but he just wagged his tail and didn't say anything.

This tit was opened to spiritual consciousness by chance more than 20 years ago, and Li Ruan also knew it at that time.

Because Li Ruan can summon Tianlei, the spirits and monsters in the mountains are either afraid of him or hate him.He has lived in Changming Mountain for 300 years, and few small animals dare to approach him.

Only this tit.

Although he was noisy every time he came, at least someone could talk to him.

Speaking of which, the tit always said he was stupid, but it was clearly the stupidest one.

More than 20 years have passed, but my practice has not improved at all. I still can only understand people's words, but cannot speak them out.

Far worse than him.

Thinking of this, Li Ruan felt a little happier.

He grabbed the two ends of the package and continued to tie the knot. The tit looked at it for a while, and then stepped forward to help him grab the corner of the fabric that was almost loose.With the help of the tit, Li Ruan finally tied the small package.

He gave the chickadee a few fruits as a reward, hung the package around his neck, turned and ran back.

The chickadee happily pecked twice, only to realize that she came to find Li Ruan because she had something serious to talk about.Looking back, Li Ruan had already bounced and ran far away, and quickly flapped his wings to catch up.

"Li Ruan, Li Ruan, wait for me!" the tit called him, "Why are you running so fast?"

Li Ruan ignored him and did not stop.

After all, he is not an ordinary fox, and it is difficult for a tit to catch up with him at full speed.After chasing almost to the entrance of the cave, Li Ruan finally stopped.

The chickadee probably didn't expect Li Ruan to stop suddenly, and didn't stop for a while, fell several somersaults on the grass, and slapped itself on a dead tree stump.

Li Ruan: "..."

Li Ruan asked it: "What have you been following me for?"

The tit slipped to the ground, its beautiful feathers messed up, and a weed caught on top of its head.

Its two little paws shook, and its voice was very aggrieved: "I... I have something to tell you."

Li Ruan didn't answer, but turned his head to look in the direction of the cave behind him.

Before he was beaten back to his original form, he was focused on his cultivation and neglected to take care of the cave, which made the outside of the cave full of weeds and vines.The overgrown tree and vines blocked the entrance of the cave tightly, and it was quiet, and no movement could be heard.

Li Ruan rushed back, naturally to feed the mortal he raised in the cave.

Four or five days have passed since that mortal lived in his cave.

The recovery ability of mortals is not as good as that of monsters. After several days, it is still difficult to stand and walk.Li Ruan knew that there was no need to rush this matter, so he could only serve him with food and drink every day.

I have been waiting for half a month, and there is no rush in these few days.

He didn't want to get entangled with the titmouse at first, but who let the bird chase him and chirp at him, as if he wanted the whole world to hear it.

When Li Ruan went out in the morning, the mortal was still asleep, and he didn't know if he woke up now, it would be troublesome if he was woken up.

Patients should sleep more, rest more, and not be disturbed.

Seeing that there was no movement in the cave at this moment, Li Ruan felt relieved and said: "What's the matter, please tell me."

Titmouse: "I saw people on the other side of the mountain, there are a lot of people!"

Jiang Shen actually woke up very early.

He sleeps lightly all year round, and now he is in such a strange place, he was awakened almost as soon as the little fox woke up in the morning.

After waking up, I didn't stay idle.

Jiang Shen changed his medicine first, and then simply washed himself with clean water.

——The little fox is really powerful. Knowing that it is inconvenient to hold water in the cave, it found a few thick tree stumps, dug out grooves, and made some simple wooden barrels to hold water for him every day.

The herbal medicine that the little fox found for him was also very effective, and those superficial abrasions healed quickly, and even the milder wounds could not even be seen as any scars.This is because the aura in Changming Mountain is abundant, and the trees, flowers and plants all have aura, which is far more effective than ordinary folk herbs.

Internal injuries are not so easy.

He fell off a cliff before and broke his leg, which hurt his muscles and bones, and it was difficult to fully recover within two or three months.

Jiang Shen glanced at his right leg, which was simply fixed with branches and vines, and sighed softly.

If this continues, I don't know when I will be able to get out of Changming Mountain.

The bundle of branches that the little fox found last time was still left, so Jiang Shen picked out a stronger one and held it in his hand as a crutch.He supported the branch with both hands, exerted strength on his uninjured leg, and stood up slowly.

The originally simple movements are now very laborious to do, Jiang Shen's eyebrows are furrowed, and the color of his lips is faintly pale.

After being seriously injured, one shouldn't move around at will, but if one really ignores it and lies down for ten days and a half months, even if one recovers in the future, most of the people will be useless.Jiang Shen has a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he must not do this.He has been lying down for several days, and it is time to try to get up and move around.

Of course, activities belong to activities, and one cannot favor one over another.

He had seen too many soldiers at the border who could never recover from their original injuries because they did not recover well after their injuries.

This is also not what he wants.

Jiang Shen used his abduction to move the injured part slightly, and then began to walk slowly.

He walked very slowly, he had to rest for a while every step he took, the cave was not big, but Jiang Shen walked for a long time from the inside to the big rock near the entrance of the cave.

He sat down on a rock.

When he woke up that day, the little fox was hiding behind the rock, but unfortunately he didn't hide his tail well, so he saw it at a glance.

Silly.

Thinking of that little guy, Jiang Shen's pale lips pursed a little.In the past few days, thanks to the food and herbs that the little guy found for him, he was able to regain his life.

It seems that the rumors in the market that most of the demon race are of a different kind and live by sucking human energy are just generalizations and not true.

In this world, there are also kind-hearted monsters like the little fox.

Jiang Shen had had enough rest, and was about to get up, but suddenly he heard someone's voice outside the cave.

The voice was faint, and the content could not be heard clearly.

But inexplicably felt a little familiar.

Jiang Shen frowned slowly.

"You mean, there are many corpses on the other side of the mountain?" Li Ruan pricked up his ears in surprise, then lowered his voice, "Are there no living people?"

"No." The chickadee shook its head. "Those people should have been there for a few days, but it snowed a few days ago, and the snow covered them all. I only found out when the snow melted today."

Li Ruan let out an "oh".

The ears droop.

Originally, Li Ruan was a little happy when he heard the tit said that there were other mortals in the mountain.

In the final analysis, he just needs a mortal as a furnace. The one in the cave will take some training before it can be used. If a few new ones can be brought in at this time, that would be a great thing.

It's a pity that they are all dead.

"But this is a good thing." The tit jumped on the tree stump, patted Li Ruan's shoulder with the tip of its wings, and comforted, "Changming Mountain has not been seen by mortals for many years, and now at least it proves that someone has entered during this time Shan, I will definitely find someone alive in the future."

"Live..."

Li Ruan turned his head to look at the cave again.

Titmouse followed him to look over, then looked at the small package around Li Ruan's neck, and finally realized: "You've already caught a mortal?!"

"It wasn't caught." Li Ruan said, "He fell outside my cave by himself."

"No wonder you haven't waited on the mountain path these days. It turns out..." Tiny Bird blinked and looked up at the sky. "So that's what it means to wait for God's gift. People really do fall from the sky."

Li Ruan hugged his small package and didn't speak to him.

"Then why aren't you happy?" Chickadee asked him, "Is it that mortal who refuses to double cultivate with you?"

"He still doesn't know that I left him for dual cultivation." When Li Ruan mentioned this, he was really worried, "Besides, he was seriously injured, that... I'm afraid it won't work."

Titmouse: "That's quite sad."

The two little guys, one big and one small, squatted together and sighed in unison.

"By the way, I also found this."

The tit suddenly remembered something, lowered its head and rummaged through the thickest feathers under its wings for a moment, and pulled out a thin piece of iron.

The small piece of iron was about the size of an adult's thumb, very thin and light, engraved with patterns they couldn't understand, and tied a red string at one end.

Titmouse put the small iron piece in front of Li Ruan: "I'm afraid you won't believe me, I purposely pulled it off those people's necks, but..."

It seemed to be very happy, its tail feathers were raised high: "You don't doubt me at all."

Li Ruan didn't quite understand why the tits were so happy.

"Because you can't lie to me." Li Ruan said, "If you want to lie to me, you should say that there are many living people found on the other side of the mountain, not corpses."

A pile of corpses is impossible to arouse his interest, and there is no possibility of being deceived.

Li Ruan explained very seriously, but the tit obviously didn't care about the answer.It happily cocked its tail feathers and walked around in front of Li Ruan twice, and even chirped and sang.

Li Ruan really doesn't understand animals like birds.

But this chickadee has only been enlightened for more than 20 years. According to the age of the demon, it is more than 20 years old, and it is still a very small child.

Don't worry about it.

Li Ruan ignored it, lowered his head and fiddled with the small iron piece in front of him with his paws.

"What is this..."

"I know what this is."

A deep voice suddenly sounded from behind them, Li Ruan was so frightened that the hair on his tail exploded, and the tit was also frightened, and flew up the tree with a bang.

A branch protruded from the cave and lifted the vines blocking the cave.

Jiang Shen looked at the pompom that was bigger than usual because of the fried hair, and pressed his eyebrows: "Can you let me see?"
