Chapter 190 Eating and drinking together
Xiaochu and Uncle Shu just didn't like the bad smell, not that they disliked the four-tailed fox. After the four-tailed fox went out refreshed, they happily got together again, basking in the sun in the yard with each other.
As the days passed, Lin Xia took the time to process all the formation materials he had brought back earlier.
This kind of thing was not difficult for Lin Xia at all. He finished processing three years' worth of supplies in less than a month.
The fur on the four-tailed fox had grown out half a month ago, and it had turned into a beautiful little fox. Even Lin Xia, who loves fur, couldn't control herself and would pick up the little guy and stroke his fur whenever she got the chance.
It must be said that it is no wonder that many female cultivators like to raise furry spirit beasts. They don’t care even if the level is very low. What they pursue is spiritual comfort.
Lin Xia's fickle behavior was jointly opposed by Xiaochu and Uncle Shu, making Lin Xia look like a heartless man.
But Lin Xia would still dare to do it next time, because Xiaochu was hairless and Uncle Shu's hair was also short. As for Brother Lei, he was a rough guy and Lin Xia didn't want him at all.
Speaking of Ling Cang, his original form was also furry, but Ling Cang has transformed into a young man. Lin Xia can't bring herself to kill him, right?!
After a long time, Xiaochu and Uncle Shu got used to it. They thought that their mother/master just had some quirks, and they understood. Haha.
……
Ever since Lin Xia confiscated the storage rings of several cubs in the family, Xiaochu and Uncle Shu have been quiet for a while. Even though the four-tailed fox still has a storage ring, it no longer rushes out.
Once the four-tailed fox's hair grows out, it can no longer sit idle.
On the one hand, the four-tailed fox wanted to go out and see the outside world. After all, it was a socially anxious fox before and its knowledge was really limited.
On the other hand, Uncle Rat and Xiaochu finally reached their limit and could no longer stay at home.
After the two sides discussed it, they simply started exploring the outer courtyard of the Shangguan family. Of course, this was done behind Lin Xia's back.
So much so that when Lin Xia received Shangguan Muyun's message, she began to doubt her life. "Fellow Daoist Lin, are you good at refining pills? Did you cure Elder Hong's four-tailed fox?"
Almost all the disciples and elders in the outer courtyard knew that Shangguan Hong raised a four-tailed fox, which he treasured very much, but no one had ever seen its true appearance.
This time, when he saw a four-tailed spirit fox parading in the outer courtyard of Shangguan's house, accompanied by several low-level spirit beasts, he naturally thought of Shangguan Hong, so he did not dare to offend him.
Therefore, under the leadership of the four-tailed fox, the instigation of Xiaochu and Master Shu, and the indulgence of the outer courtyard disciples, finally, without Lin Xia's knowledge, these spirit beasts had become famous in the Shangguan family's outer courtyard.
Shangguan Muyun had never seen Shangguan Hong's four-tailed fox, but because Shangguan Hong learned about it when he posted the task in the Task Hall, he knew some inside information. He also knew that this period was the little guy's molting period, and it should not go out, let alone have a smooth and thick coat of fur.
After a little thought, Shangguan Muyun knew that the accident must have happened to Lin Xia.
After hearing clearly what Shangguan Muyun asked, Lin Xia did not answer immediately, but asked Shangguan Muyun what happened and why he asked that.
When Lin Xia learned that the cubs at home, including the four-tailed spirit fox, were wandering around the outer courtyard every day and blatantly asking passing disciples for spirit fruits and other food, she almost wanted to cover her face. Isn't this embarrassing?!
Didn't she make sure they had enough to eat? Didn't she just confiscate a storage ring? Didn't she still have the mustard seed space?! Why would they need to eat and drink for free?! Ahhhhhh! Just thinking about it drives me crazy!
It was really embarrassing, but what had to be faced had to be faced. After finishing the communication with Shangguan Muyun, Lin Xia hurried out of Huanxiju and went to the outer courtyard mission hall to catch a few of his own cubs.
That’s right, these cubs are all now having fun in the outer courtyard mission hall. No, to be more precise, they are eating and dashing in the outer courtyard mission hall.
This was because Lin Xia learned from Shangguan Muyun that when disciples from the outer courtyard went to hand in or take over tasks, these troublemakers would try to take advantage of them and try to squeeze out some benefits from the unfamiliar outer courtyard disciples.
Alas, I am becoming more and more speechless, aren’t I?
When Lin Xia arrived, the outer courtyard's mission hall was very lively. Many disciples were reluctant to leave after handing over their tasks, so they stayed in the outer courtyard's mission hall to pet the spirit beasts. The most popular ones were the four-tailed spirit fox and the cub-like Ling Cang. There were also several female disciples surrounding Uncle Rat.
No one was interested except Xiaochu and Lei Xiaodi, who were lying on the table beside them and eating spiritual fruits in a leisurely manner.
Seeing Lin Xia come in, the troublemakers realized that they were exposed. Even the four-tailed fox quickly jumped out of the arms of a female cultivator and looked at Lin Xia timidly with a pair of wet eyes.
As for Xiaochu, Uncle Shu and the others, they had already run away, completely forgetting the four-tailed fox behind them.
The four-tailed fox that was left there was not in a hurry. Seeing that Lin Xia ignored it, it jumped into Lin Xia's arms and was given a big slap on the head by Lin Xia.
After all, it was his own spirit beast that made the mistake first, so Lin Xia gave a passionate speech to all the disciples, saying that he would definitely educate his spirit beast well when he returned. At the same time, he also did not forget to thank all the disciples for their generosity.
As for compensation in spirit stones, that was out of the question. How could I compensate for something my own cub had eaten through his own efforts? Wouldn't that mean he had been plucking his fur for nothing?
Fortunately, petting the fur of spiritual beasts is really a very enjoyable thing. The disciples enjoy it very much and don’t care about such a small amount of spiritual fruits and food at all. Some female disciples are even very envious of Lin Xia for being able to own so many spiritual beasts at the same time.
After all, the owner of the spirit beast had arrived, and the disciples could not stay any longer, so they quickly said goodbye and left.
When only Lin Xia and Shangguan Muyun were left in the outer courtyard mission hall, Shangguan Muyun told Lin Xia the real purpose of his message.
It turned out that after Shangguan Muyun guessed that Lin Xia was an alchemist, he had the idea of buying elixirs from Lin Xia.
After all, to be able to easily cure a poison that had baffled the elders of the outer courtyard for many years, this Fellow Daoist Lin must have quite good alchemy skills.
Therefore, although it was a bit abrupt, Shangguan Muyun still expressed his request.
It turned out that Shangguan Muyun had a younger brother who was from the same mother as him. He had good aptitude for cultivation and lived in the inner courtyard of the Shangguan family. He was going out on a mission recently and the place he was going to was a bit dangerous. Shangguan Muyun wanted to buy some pills for his brother. It was always better to be prepared.
The disciples in the inner courtyard will definitely not have to worry about finding channels to buy elixirs.
But that's how it is between family members. Even if you don't need it, I want to do more for you.
At this moment, Lin Xia inevitably thought of her uncle Su Linghan, so Lin Xia did not refuse and readily sold the pill to Shangguan Muyun.
