"you--!"
Jiang Xiaochuan was so angry that his vision blurred. He pointed at her, his finger trembling, and he couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time. In the end, he could only put his hand down angrily, turn his head away, and grit his teeth.
"I'm not talking to you anymore. Go ahead and follow me if you want, but don't expect me to feed you!"
After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked away, taking quick and large steps, as if he wanted to shake off some plague.
Xiao Bai watched his retreating figure, smiled, and followed at a leisurely pace. Her wet hair slowly dried in the morning breeze, falling loosely over her shoulders.
After walking for a while, Jiang Xiaochuan kept his head down and didn't say a word. Xiaobai didn't say anything either, just followed at a distance with light steps.
After walking for a while, Jiang Xiaochuan suddenly stopped, didn't turn around, and asked in a muffled voice, "How old are you?"
Xiao Bai paused, walked to his side, and tilted her head to look at him: "Why are you asking this?"
"curious."
Jiang Xiaochuan still didn't look at her, staring at the trampled grass in front of him.
"I've heard...I've heard people say that a three-tailed fox demon takes about a hundred years to cultivate, a six-tailed one takes a thousand years, and a nine-tailed one..."
He paused, then finally turned to look at her, his eyes filled with a mixture of seriousness, inquiry, and a barely perceptible wariness.
"It would have taken you thousands of years to cultivate to the nine-tailed form, wouldn't it?"
Xiao Bai's smile faded slightly. She looked at Jiang Xiaochuan but didn't say anything.
"An old man several thousand years old..."
Jiang Xiaochuan swallowed back the words "old monster" and used a slightly more euphemistic one instead.
"Senior, what do you think...?"
He pointed to himself, then to her, his tone odd.
"Would I like you?"
Xiaobai fell silent.
The wind blew through the woods, ruffling her long hair and the hem of her moon-white dress.
She gazed at Jiang Xiaochuan quietly for a long time. The smile in her charming eyes gradually faded, replaced by a deep emotion that Jiang Xiaochuan couldn't understand.
Then, she suddenly moved.
Without warning, it pounced on them!
"Jiang Xiaochuan!"
Her voice was filled with anger, and a hint of embarrassment at being touched on a sore spot.
"You're asking for it!"
Jiang Xiaochuan was shocked. He regretted asking the question as soon as he did and was on guard. Seeing this, he immediately dodged to the side. Xiaobai missed, but reacted very quickly and reached out to grab the sleeve of his inner garment.
Jiang Xiaochuan tried to struggle, but her slender fingers were surprisingly strong. With a "rip," half of her sleeve was torn off, revealing her fair and thin arm underneath.
"Hey! My clothes!" Jiang Xiaochuan cried out in distress.
Although this undergarment is ordinary, it was prepared by Master Su Ru; there were only two of them.
Little White didn't care, grabbed the half-torn sleeve, and pounced on him again.
This time, Jiang Xiaochuan didn't dodge completely, and she grabbed his other arm.
The two immediately began wrestling in the woods.
Although it was actually Xiaobai who was mainly attacking, while Jiang Xiaochuan was dodging and blocking in a sorry state.
"So what if they're thousands of years old? Did they eat your rice?!"
While trying to scratch him, Xiaobai said angrily, having long lost her previous lazy and charming demeanor, and now looked like a cat whose tail had been stepped on and whose fur had stood on end.
"I didn't say I was eating rice, I was just stating a fact! You're much older than me!" Jiang Xiaochuan said, protecting his head and face, while still retorting.
"You're older and more experienced, what do you know, you brat who hasn't even grown up yet!"
"My hair's all grown in! It's been all grown in for ages!"
Xiao Bai tugged at his ear and said, "Oh? Let me check?"
Jiang Xiaochuan bristled and said, "You're a pervert, old demon... senior!"
Xiao Bai's subordinate said, "Call me 'old' again, and I'll pluck all your fur off, making you truly 'not fully grown'."
"Are you being unreasonable? Can't I even speak up just because I'm old!"
During the scuffle, someone tripped over something, and the two rolled around in a heap again.
This time, Jiang Xiaochuan was pinned down, with Xiaobai "riding" on his waist, still clutching the half-ripped sleeve in her hand. She was panting heavily, her hair disheveled, and her moon-white dress was covered in grass clippings and mud, making her look somewhat disheveled. However, her eyes were surprisingly bright, glaring at him angrily.
Jiang Xiaochuan was also panting, his cheeks flushed red, whether from anger or exhaustion. He glared at Xiaobai on his body, about to say something, when he suddenly felt a pain in his cheek.
Little White came over and viciously bit his left cheek.
It's not heavy, but it's not light either.
The tooth struck the flesh, leaving a clear, damp tooth mark.
Jiang Xiaochuan was stunned.
After Xiaobai finished taking a bite, it seemed to pause for a moment.
Looking at the teeth marks, and then at Jiang Xiaochuan's blank face, her anger receded like the tide, replaced by a strange expression that mixed with annoyance and...success.
She released him, climbed off him, brushed the grass clippings off her skirt, and tidied her disheveled long hair, instantly regaining her lazy and indifferent demeanor, as if she hadn't been the one who had just attacked and bitten him.
She looked down at Jiang Xiaochuan, who was still lying on the ground, covering his face and staring blankly. She snorted softly, turned around and walked away. After taking two steps, she stopped, turned back, and threw the half-torn sleeve in her hand back to him.
"Here you go."
She said her voice had returned to calm, even with a hint of a smile: "Being old means having good teeth."
Jiang Xiaochuan: "..."
He lay on the ground, watching Xiaobai's white figure disappear behind the bushes, then looked at the half-torn sleeve in his hand, and then touched the clear, slightly stinging tooth mark on his face.
An indescribable sense of absurdity welled up inside me.
What kind of mess is this?!
At the same time, deep in Jiang Xiaochuan's mind, a lazy, slightly teasing female voice clicked its tongue softly.
It was Hong Li talking to herself.
"Another one. Is this kid's love life all over the place? First, there was that little green-clad girl from the Ghost King Sect, so clingy. Now there's this nine-tailed fox who looks dignified, but she's quite ruthless when she gets going, hugging and biting..."
She "looked" at Jiang Xiaochuan outside, who was covering his face and looked utterly hopeless, and smiled silently.
"Little Bingbing, Little Bingbing, if you don't come out of seclusion soon, your backyard might catch fire."
Jiang Xiaochuan lay on the ground for a while until the stinging and strange feeling on his face subsided before slowly getting up.
He picked up the half-torn sleeve, looked at it, sighed, stuffed it into his pocket, and then touched the teeth marks on his face. Luckily, the skin wasn't broken, but it was a little swollen and would probably take a while to subside.
He straightened his even more tattered undergarments and resignedly walked in the direction where Xiaobai had disappeared.
Not far away, they saw Xiaobai sitting on a fallen, withered tree, casually poking at the ants on the ground with a blade of grass.
Hearing footsteps, she didn't look up, continuing to fiddle with the ants, and simply asked, "What are you doing now?"
Jiang Xiaochuan walked over and sat down a little distance away from her, saying irritably, "Hunting prey and then eating? I'm starving."
"What do you want to eat?" Xiaobai asked, still without looking up.
"Eat the fox," Jiang Xiaochuan said viciously.
Xiao Bai paused in her fiddling with the grass stems, looked up, and glanced at him: "Fox meat doesn't taste good, it's pungent."
Jiang Xiaochuan snorted, turned his face away, and remained silent.
