Xiao Yue jumped up and down saying: "The chapter updates are less than 50%, just wait until midnight and you can read it!"

  "Never mind! What's the use of talking about it now? These days are still not easy for you to take care of, and if I want to repay your kindness, I can only do so after some time has passed."

  At this point, the person in the darkness couldn't help but feel a pang of melancholy. After a moment's reflection, he suddenly had an idea and said: "As the saying goes, it's better to teach someone how to fish than to give them a fish. You saved me once, why not let me pass on my family's inner skills to you? In the future, when those little rascals come to bother you, you can deal with them yourself."

  She thought the more she was suitable, and besides, at her age, she always wanted to take in a disciple. She strongly recommended: "Don't look at me like this now, it's really an unexpected situation that has never happened in a thousand years. In fact, our generation's secret techniques are very powerful, divided into male and female methods. Our female method is especially suitable for women to cultivate, advancing can be used to fight against enemies, retreating can be used to detoxify and nourish the skin! Within three years, I will definitely make you slender like a swallow, beautiful like a flower! Of course, it's best for women to cultivate, but men can also cultivate with the same effect, and only need to castrate themselves to cough...cough..."

  The woman in the cave suddenly became aware that she had misspoken and hastily coughed to cover it up, changing her words: "Cough, cough, I mean... men's cultivation, I'll recommend it to my senior brother! Let him learn men's skills! Let him learn men's skills!"

  After finishing speaking, she hurriedly and worriedly went to look at that little fox, afraid that the other party had been frightened by her.

  However, Xiao Bai Hu simply maintained her previous expression and looked at her in confusion, watching as she muttered to herself, then tilted her head slightly.

  That person let out a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a little scared. Thinking carefully, although she had lived in this cave for some days, she still didn't know whether the small white fox that accompanied her every day was male or female... It wasn't easy to judge an animal's sex just by its face before it had fully transformed, and that would be too difficult for her.

  Originally because she had been with girls for many years, seeing the pretty and clever little white fox, subconsciously thought it was a girl, but now that it involves martial arts, this kind of thinking seems to be somewhat unscrupulous.

  The woman thought for a moment, then stared at the little white fox, trying to figure out what was going on. But the little white fox didn't notice her thoughts and happily curled up in place to rest. After a while, she somehow lifted her head again, poking her head into the small puddle of water on the ground.

  The cave was damp, and the low-hanging icicles on the stone pillars would form puddles of water on the uneven ground, which could serve as a mirror. The woman watched as the little white fox carefully looked at its reflection in the puddle, then used its paw to rub its forehead vigorously, only to see that the birthmark was still there. It lay down dejectedly, its ears drooping.

  The girl was taken aback.

  She had actually felt that this little fox, although not speaking human language and appearing to be unenlightened, was not as ignorant as it seemed. She was probably in a state of ignorance, half-understanding the spiritual things of this world, with her spirituality vaguely opening up, but still being obtuse.

  She has been wounded and fallen to this place for only a few days, but the three foxes before seemed to have bullied the little white fox for a long time. The little white fox didn't understand the malice of the world, but in her daze, she could sense that their behavior towards her was related to the birthmark on her forehead, so although she didn't understand human emotions and worldly affairs, she couldn't help but care about that birthmark.

  The woman pursed her lips and said, "It's strange to say, but I used to have the intention of taking on apprentices and passing on my skills. However, my standards were too high and no one was good enough in my eyes. Even my senior fellow disciple said that I was being too picky. But now, I suddenly feel a connection with you." Perhaps it was because he had saved her, but she found the little fox to be pleasing to the eye, and genuinely wanted to take him on as an apprentice. She tried again, "Actually, I don't think the red mark on your forehead looks bad, but I'm not familiar with the aesthetics of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, so I won't say more. If you really dislike this birthmark, you can become my apprentice and learn my techniques. In the future, I'll help you find a way to get rid of it. What do you think?"

  The girl spoke sincerely, with a pair of beautiful eyes full of genuine expression. If her people from the past saw her being so arrogant and still having such an expression, they would definitely be shocked.

  The little white fox looked at her with a puzzled expression, tilting his head to the side and asking: "...... Wooo?"

  Woman: “......”

  She let out a soft sigh, no matter how much she liked the little white fox, in this situation, there was no way to forcibly take her as an apprentice.

  It was just that she had saved her life, and if she only helped her chase away a few fox tribe bear children, it would be detrimental to her reputation.

  The girl thought for a moment, then felt around her body and somehow pulled out a golden feather. She transformed the golden feather in her hand into a small golden bell with a floral pattern, threaded it with red string, and hung it from the little white fox's neck.

  She said: "This object is called the Golden Feather Bell, and it will serve as a token of faith between you and me. If you hold this object, my people will show you respect, and if you need help, they will do their best to assist you. Furthermore, I promise that with this object, I will grant you one wish in the future. If you have any requests, come to the south and mention my name, and as long as it is within my power, I will definitely fulfill your wish! And remember..."

  "My name is Fei Xia! If you have any business with my people, just mention my name. Remember it well, don't forget!"

  The little white fox wandered around, making "wow wow" sounds twice. Her attention was drawn to the small bell on her neck that had just been tied up, and she occasionally used her paws to fiddle with it. As she moved, the small golden bell on her neck made a crisp "ding ding dang" sound.

  As expected, even a little fox who had not yet opened her spiritual wisdom did not dislike this kind of bright and shiny decoration. She played with it for a while, then stood up happily and jumped around to make the bells ring out more.

  The girl looked at her with such joy, and couldn't help but smile. Even if the little white fox didn't know what was going on now, once she gained spiritual awareness, she would have some impression of her name. Fei Xia wasn't worried that she would forget... Just as Fei Xia thought for a moment, she said: "Come to think of it, since this bell has been given to you, we should make an agreement between us. Those rabbits previously said you didn't have a name... Hmm..."

  She thought for a moment and then clapped her hands decisively: "I'm also not good at naming, this white mass of yours will be called Yunmian!"

  However, she repeated the name in her mouth twice and felt that giving the little fox such a serious name would lose some of its cuteness. She said: "The nickname is called Tuantuan! In the future, I will call you Tuantuan, and your husband can call you Meng'er."

  As she said that, she tied the name together with her own on the golden bell, turned around to see the little white fox still staring at her and making "woo woo" sounds, found it so cute that she couldn't help but hug it into her arms, calling out "Tuantuan" several times.

  Tuantuan listened and knew she was being called, her consciousness was hazy, but she also knew that this name was much friendlier and cuter than "Little Clown Eight Monsters", so she happily rolled around in the woman's arms.

  The woman was originally happy to play with her, but after a while, she became melancholic again. She and her husband had been married for thousands of years without children, and in the past few days, they had even given the little fox in their arms a name, already treating it as their daughter... Of course, it's also possible that it's a son, but she believed it was a daughter. At this time, she felt a bit reluctant to part with it, and somewhat regretted bringing up such a topic.

  She couldn't help but lift the little white fox to her face, looking at its clear and innocent fox eyes, and sighed: "Alas, Tuantuan, you were born so lovely, I wonder who will call you 'Sleepy' in the future."

  ……

  At this time, Hu Qi was just driving away the few unwanted fox cubs and returned to the carriage in a huff. He lifted the curtain and saw that his master was sitting upright with his eyes closed, deep in thought. When he felt the curtain being opened, he slowly opened his eyes and looked over.

  "Hu Qi looked at the young man in the carriage, who was elegant and refined, with a noble air about him. 'Young Master,' he said, 'I've already chased those little kids away. They wanted to run, but I caught them and taught them a lesson! I also told the other foxes around here to keep an eye on them, so they won't bother any girls again.'"

  Hú Qī has always been meticulous in his work, no wonder he's been gone for a while.

  The young man nodded slightly and looked in the direction of the fox den in the mountains. For some reason, he couldn't help but think about the girl's eyes when she turned her head for a moment. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Did you ask them why they bullied that girl?"

  "I asked."

  "She seems to be a lonely orphan living nearby, already twelve or thirteen years old. She's one of the foxes that will worship the moon together on the fifteenth of next month, but her spiritual awareness has not yet awakened. Her spiritual awareness is probably a bit dull, but she's definitely a spirit fox. It's not uncommon for foxes to awaken late... However, those little boys see that her spiritual awareness is slow and her appearance is also somewhat different, so they often come to play tricks on her since she doesn't have parents to take care of her."
