Their commission was suspicious.

The little fox nowadays is the kind of person her mother would beat up. But thankfully, Chen Luo is experienced.

Although it's still quite troublesome to deal with, Chen Luo has nothing to do right now. He's finished the 7-day event, and the bar isn't open.

There was absolutely no commission involved, okay?

Without any commission, Chen Luo could only give up.

While you're giving up, it can be quite interesting to rescue a little fox.

What if she turns into Miss Fox to repay a debt of gratitude?

Yeah, go back and press its head down, and make it look at chocolate and vanilla every day.

Although this fox looked like it deserved a beating, Chen Luo was already used to it. The little fox from before was even more mischievous than this one. What kind of stupid things hadn't Chen Luo seen?

Would a normal pet bite a cactus? Yes, it would.

Then Chen Luo locked her in a cage for three whole days. Every time Chen Luo passed by, she would reach for his trouser leg with her little paws, looking pitiful.

However, Chen Luo had only let it go for half a day when it ran off to play in some mud puddle. When it came back, it was quite proud, carrying a five-yuan note that it had picked up from somewhere. This made Chen Luo furious.

Five yuan? What are you so happy about? Five yuan isn't even enough to cover the labor cost of giving you a bath.

And do you think I don't have to do homework?

However, having such a mischievous pet isn't without its advantages. For example, when Chen Luo didn't want to do her homework anymore, he would put the homework book in front of her and watch her tear it up.

You can't keep tearing them up; you raise a fox for a thousand days, but only use it for one.

Then the little fox, who was forced to tear up all her homework, ignored Chen Luo for a day.

Do you know how much psychological harm it can cause a fox to chew up a whole backpack full of homework?

It's no less than a major confrontation!

Looking at the fox's somewhat dirty and messy fur in his hand, Chen Luo thought about shaving it off more than once, but when he remembered how the white fox had acted as if it was going to die after he shaved a little bit of its fur, he gave up on the idea.

"Thank your predecessors for their sacrifices," Chen Luo muttered as he carefully groomed the little fox's fur.

After cleaning all the hair, Chen Luo took out the Plague Gem and began to infuse it with a small amount of spiritual power.

The Plague Gem reacts when Honkai energy is injected, and it also reacts very weakly when spiritual energy is injected.

But this was exactly the faint light Chen Luo wanted. As a faint flame and warmth were generated on the surface of the Plague Gem, Chen Luo began to use the Plague Gem to groom the pink fox's fur.

While the idea of ​​getting wet might sound appealing, it's essential to dry your cat, dog, or fox as quickly as possible after giving them a bath.

Otherwise... Chen Luo didn't know what would happen, but he just wanted to dry it as much as possible.

"Oh, poor little guy. We don't have a pet dryer at home, so we only have the Plague Gem. We'll just have to make do."

After spending a short time drying the fox's fur and making sure it had shed all the loose fur, Chen Luo hugged it back into his arms and lay down on the sofa to pet it.

Although Chen Luo's medical knowledge did not extend to veterinary medicine, he could tell that the other person was now basically out of danger; his heartbeat was audible and his breathing had become stable.

Well, since he had nothing else to do, Chen Luo started practicing his puppeteer skills while petting the fox.

I started with the simplest carving of wooden puppets, but the basics meant that the other party was important.

Chen Luo didn't have any high-level human materials around him, and since he was inclined to modify human puppets, he could only use wooden puppets for practice.

Of course, it can't just be puppets; it also needs some other embellishments.

For example, clothes.

The goal of making a doll is to be lifelike, so every aspect needs to be sculpted perfectly, making it impossible for people to tell at a glance whether it is a real person or a doll.

……

"Gurgle..." Just as Chen Luo was gradually shaping the doll, which was slightly shorter than himself, the pink-furred fox beside him let out a soft groan.

"Alas, shouldn't the fox's cry be a cry of 'The Great Chu will rise, Chen Sheng will be king'?"

Chen Luo scratched his head, then tossed the life-sized doll standing on the ground aside, walked to the sofa, squatted down, and stared intently into the fox's eyes.

Ahem, Chen Luo was joking about the fox's cry, but this fox was indeed different from the foxes he used to keep. The foxes he used to keep would whimper.

Under Chen Luo's expectant gaze, the fox, which had been curled up in a ball, weakly opened its eyes.

"Gurgle..." Perhaps due to extreme weakness, the other party could only make unintelligible sounds to confirm that they had woken up.

Perhaps it was because Chen Luo was too close and his face was too big that the little fox was frightened. The little fox tried to struggle and run away, but it was too weak to escape.

After Chen Luo gently picked it up and stroked it a few times, the little fox gave up struggling.

"This [100% chance of being repaid by a fox] is quite useful." Chen Luo wasn't referring to the repayment attribute, but rather the increased favorability and affinity towards foxes that this skill provides.

At the same time, Chen Luo's combination of being a philanthropist and having a non-human friend may have also had an effect, but Chen Luo wasn't sure.

Moreover, Chen Luo didn't play with foxes for so long for nothing; he's also mastered some of the finer techniques for petting them.

"Are you hungry, little guy?" Chen Luo asked after stroking the other's chin.

"Goo?" The little fox, feeling very comfortable being petted, let out a sound.

"Don't 'coo coo coo,' repeat after me, 'aww aww aww.'"

"Goo?"

"Waaaaah."

The little fox, held in Chen Luo's arms, had a few questions in its big eyes.

"Waaah!" Chen Luo repeated.

"Eek?"

"That's right, you're so smart. Good girl, I'll prepare some goat milk powder for you right away." Chen Luo nodded in satisfaction.

That's the sound a fox should make.

After placing the weak little fox back on the sofa, Chen Luo found the pet goat milk powder in his storage space and started making it.

Chen Luo doesn't know how much stuff is in his storage space right now. Basically, he has everything that's available in Changkong City. Plus, his backpack has a search function, making it very convenient to find things.

The reason we feed the fox cubs goat milk powder instead of cow's milk is that cow's milk is not good for them and can easily cause diarrhea.

At least that's what Chen Luo found out just now.

But Chen Luo thought back to when he used to feed his own white fox, it didn't have so many problems. It would eat whatever he ate, and even eat more happily than he did.

Although Chen Luo didn't have any hot water on hand, didn't that highlight the importance of the Plague Gem?

Using spiritual power to induce heat in the other party makes the Plague Gem a truly excellent heater.

After dissolving the goat milk powder, Chen Luo didn't feed the little fox with a bowl or anything like that. Instead, he took out a syringe.

Feeding the other person liquid food with a syringe while they are still weak is a good option.

Before the other party woke up, Chen Luo had already placed his only teleportation anchor, which he had upgraded at a cost of 100 Primogems, in the living room of his house.

This teleportation anchor had a slow healing effect, and Chen Luo dismantled it after healing Durandal.

That's why the little fox woke up so quickly.

However, what troubled Chen Luo was that the little fox didn't seem to like drinking goat milk powder.

Of course, the other party didn't like it, but under Chen Luo's oppressive power, they still drank it.

Chapter 135 The Little Fox with Extreme Intelligence

"Alo, I'm back!" A door appeared out of thin air in the living room, followed by the seemingly carefree voice of the Herrscher of Knowledge.

Chen Luo naturally granted the Herald of Knowledge the authority to return home from the Collapsed World.

"Wow!" But then the Herald of Knowledge exclaimed.

"Bang!" A loud noise followed.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Chen Luo poked his head out from the kitchen.

Then Chen Luo saw that the doll he had painstakingly carved for more than two hours in the living room had become a pile of rubble, and in front of that pile of rubble was the Herrscher of Knowledge, still in a punching stance.

"Xiao Shi, what are you doing? That's the result of my two-plus hours of work!" Chen Luo, holding the spatula, suddenly screamed in agony.

"Ah, I'm sorry." The Herrscher of Knowledge obediently apologized.

"This is indeed my fault, I can't refute it, but you're also at fault. Why did you sculpt the doll in the shape of the Thousand Herrscher? That doll-like posture is just annoying to look at." The Herrscher of Knowledge muttered softly.

Imagine you open the door to a bar and see a Herrscher of a Thousand with twisted joints standing in front of you. Would you react excessively? Of course you would, right? After all, the other person's face is so punchable.

"You still have the nerve to argue? I am the Herrscher of a Thousand, so it's perfectly normal for me to sculpt the Herrscher of a Thousand." Chen Luo was furious when he saw the Herrscher of Knowledge talking back.

Two hours! A full two hours! The doll that took so much time and effort to perfectly recreate the appearance of the thousand-person Herrscher girl from the story was smashed by a single punch from the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"It wasn't just my fault to begin with," the Lawbringer of Knowledge stubbornly insisted.

"Then you shouldn't eat dinner tonight."

"Fine, I won't eat then. Is it going to kill me to skip a meal or something?" the Herald of Knowledge said dismissively.

"Oh, then why don't you throw away those candles on the table while you're at it?" Chen Luo said casually.

"Candles? Why are you lighting candles? And why are you cooking at home? Isn't the food at the bar tastier and more convenient?"

The key point is that you don't have to wash dishes when you eat at a bar.

"Hey, I was planning to cook at home tonight to celebrate the bumpy yet wonderful experience of us knowing each other for half a month. Since you put it that way, let's go to a bar instead." Chen Luo nodded and put the spatula in his bag.

To be honest, Chen Luo doesn't really like cooking, and washing dishes is quite a hassle; eating at a bar is much better.

"I'm sorry, I was wrong. Eating at home is just fine, really." The Herrscher of Knowledge immediately apologized obediently.

I'd completely forgotten about it.

These past two weeks have indeed been quite thrilling.

"Ha, women." Chen Luo turned around and went back to the kitchen.

The Herrscher of Knowledge glanced at the kitchen, then at the Herrscher of a Thousand who had been smashed to pieces by a single punch, a Herrscher of a Thousand who even his own mother wouldn't recognize. After only half a second of thought, he used his storage ring to collect the items.

Cleaning and such is too much trouble.

The storage ring in the hand of the Lawbringer was the one that Liu Wenxuan gave to Chen Luo.

Right now, the Book of Azure Mystery is sitting there obediently in the storage ring.

Similarly, there are two Keys of Domination.

Although there were only 1000 Keys of Domination in the previous civilization, Fu Hua, as the executor of the Fire Seed Project, directly inherited about 100 Keys of Domination from the previous civilization.

Although some of the Keys of Domination were destroyed in battle, some remained in the secret realm of Mount Taixu. However, the Herrscher of Recognition did not take them all.

One of these two is for Chen Luo, and the other is for the Herald of Knowledge himself.

Although the Herrscher of Knowledge has his own sword case, it's interesting that the two of them use the same weapon, isn't it?

From the time the Lawgiver of Knowledge left until the time he returned, approximately four and a half hours had passed.

In other words, the Herrscher of Knowledge travels fast enough and doesn't need to return to Changkong City; they can go directly home through the bar. Otherwise, four hours wouldn't even be enough for a round trip, let alone entering the secret realm.

"Eek!"

"Hmm?" A peculiar sound came from the kitchen, attracting the attention of the Herald of Knowledge.

Upon hearing this strange cry, the Herald of Knowledge immediately headed towards the kitchen.

Then they saw Chen Luo busy in the kitchen, and a fox stealing fried chicken nuggets.

"Alo, what's this?" The Herrscher of Knowledge was completely bewildered as she looked at the new little fox that had appeared in her home.

How long have I been gone? Just over four hours. How did a fox suddenly appear?

The Lawbringer immediately grabbed the little fox, who was stealing chicken nuggets, and lifted it up by the scruff of its neck.

“It’s a fox, obviously.” Chen Luo said while cooking.

"Of course I know it's a fox, but the important question is why it ended up in our house?"

"Oh, you mean this? This little fox is in the same situation as you. It was also spat out from the spacetime turbulence above the vegetable garden in our backyard. I suspect there's a spacetime portal in our backyard, but I have no proof."

"I see..." Feeling the unusually intelligent little fox in his hand, the Herrscher of Knowledge nodded thoughtfully.

Since Alo said the other person's situation is the same as his, it means the other person must have also issued a mission. Alo should be aware of the other person's situation, right?

The Law of Consciousness, being the one who controls consciousness, could tell at a glance that this little fox was no ordinary little fox.
