Beast Taming Begins with Monster Hunting

Chapter 266: Light of Day



"Scholars can also be frivolous." The little fox leaned lightly on the scholar's shoulder, charming as if boneless, with a face full of spring, like a peach blossom blooming in March, so charming that it was beyond words.

The scholar gently put down the ancient book in his hand and gently took her into his arms.

"Why did the scholar come back so early today? In the past, the scholar would not be able to return home until the evening."

The scholar stroked the fox's ear and smiled, "Missing."

"Missing?"

"I used to think that the word "missing" was extremely vulgar, but since I met you, I feel that I am a vulgar person."

...

Days passed, and with the help of the little fox, the scholar gradually had some money and moved into the city with the little fox.

They had their own real home.

The little fox enjoyed the time spent with the scholar. Whenever he walked out of the market, the scholar would always have some more gadgets in his hands.

Fruits covered with syrup, a few Tang people pinched into birds, or exquisite decorations.

One day, she waited for the scholar to return at the market as usual.

She was already familiar with the market and strolled slowly, admiring the dazzling array of things in the market.

"What are you doing!"

When passing by a place selling jewelry, a woman suddenly yelled.

The little fox was startled and looked around in confusion, but she was the only one in front of the stall.

"Take out the things! I saw it all!" The woman walked angrily in front of the little fox, and the pedestrians around also surrounded her.

"I... I didn't take your things!" For a moment, the little fox had forgotten the scholar's instructions and started to defend himself.

Now everyone around was happy.

"A female thief. Judging from the voice, this little thief should be good-looking."

"Isn't this the weirdo in Xu Shusheng's house? I often see Xu Shusheng taking her around."

"She is so well covered. Is there something shameful about her?"

"I noticed her a long time ago. She is sneaky and has dirty hands and feet."

The little fox was a little at a loss. She just passed by here, but looking at the current situation, she couldn't explain at all.

"Didn't you take my things? I clearly saw it! You took the blood bead I took out of the body of the ordinary beast!"

A fat man with a rosacea smiled and said, "Whether you took it or not, just search it. I am very curious about this guy."

The fat man continued, "If you don't dare to do it, then I will do it for you..."

Hearing this, the little fox was shocked. She was not afraid of being searched, but these ears and tails... will bring trouble to the scholar.

But if she is not searched, there is no way to prove her innocence.

I clearly did nothing...

"Auntie Hua, I bought your fake blood beads at the real price." When the little fox was at a loss, the scholar's gentle voice sounded.

The little fox turned around and found that the scholar had squeezed in with force, panting.

"What fake blood beads, mine are real blood beads! Even if you want to buy them, I won't sell them!"

A heavy bag of silver fell in front of her, and the scholar smiled and said, "Auntie Hua, I'm not arguing with you, I'm here to support my girl."

"Here are fifty taels of silver, you should keep it well, don't say it was stolen again."

After saying that, he held the little fox's hand, and gently scratched the little fox's palm with his little finger, indicating that she should rest assured.

"Fatty Zuo, I've remembered what happened today, and I hope you two can act more realistically in the future."

——————————

"I...I didn't steal anything." On the way, the little fox said aggrievedly.

"I know."

The little fox raised her head and said in confusion: "But...but you know it's not me, why do you still give her money?"

"People see the benefits but not the harm, fish see the food but not the hook."

"We have been too high-profile recently and attracted the attention of some people."

"Spend money and you can avoid a disaster."

The little fox listened and stood there silently without saying a word.

"What if I am stronger than them?"

The cold wind whistled past, lifting the little fox's black hair.

"It's a bit cold, right? It seems that the evening breeze tonight is more looking forward to hugging you than I am."

The scholar walked up and gently took her into his arms.

"Don't let the evening breeze take advantage of you."

.....

The days were not peaceful for too long. One day, the scholar did not go home at night.

The little fox was guarding outside the door. That night, the crystal snow covered it and turned it into a snowman.

The scholar did not allow her to go out alone.

The next day, news came that the scholar was arrested.

When a bad person does good things, it is called a prodigal son returning.

When a good person does a bad thing, his true colors are exposed.

Even if he was wronged.

.....

That day, the little fox took action.

In this city, there was no one she could rely on, everyone was an accomplice.

The scholar lived an upright life, but was imprisoned because of a thief.

Mortals were no match for her. Although she was very well-behaved in front of the scholar, she was a demon from beginning to end.

Aunt Hua, Fatty Zuo, these people who put the scholar in prison, were sent to hell by her own hands.

That day, the demon woman massacred the city.

That day, there would be no more sin here.

Finally, she saw the scholar in the cellar.

"Scholar..."

The scholar seemed to have changed into a different person, saying indifferently: "Little fox, I remember I told you that no matter what, don't hurt anyone."

"But they..."

"No buts."

The little fox froze in place, looking at the scholar with an uneasy look.

"Go away."

"Humans and demons have different paths, and there is no future for you and me."

It was still the same voice, but it made the little fox feel a little bit chilling.

The little fox's eyes were no longer bright, revealing a bit of sadness, and the vision in front of him began to blur.

"We agreed."

The scholar said expressionlessly: "In this life, people always have to give up a lot of things."

"Including me?"

"Including you."

.....

The little fox left, and the scholar crawled out of the cellar alone.

There were corpses all around, and the scholar just sighed and walked silently towards home.

The little fox will never come back here, this is the meaning of parting.

He took a scarlet pill, which he bought at the Chamber of Commerce at a high price.

It can make him become an orc dominated by killing.

The snow that night was strange, like regret, like reunion, like unrequited love.

Later, other towns heard that the town was destroyed and sent real cultivators.

They saw a flesh body gnawing on a corpse, and their stomachs churned.

The orc's head was chopped off and taken back by them.

He did not blame the little fox for the death of those people.

A beam of light shone into the iron tower, revealing the filth and dirt in the iron tower, and this beam of light was guilty.

The light of day does not know the depth of the night.
