Chapter 13 Red Fox, a worn-out porcelain bowl.

At that moment, Chen Chuan picked up the headlamp, put it on his head, and opened the door.

The direction of the movement was in the woods directly opposite the door of the wooden house. Chen Chuan turned on the light with doubt in his heart.

Suddenly, the strong light from the military-grade headlamp shone out, as if a sun had lit up in the darkness.

This beam of strong light shone squarely on the person who caused the movement.

"Wow~"

The cry was sharp and loud. When Chen Chuan heard it, he knew in his heart that it was a fox.

Sure enough, I saw a red fox in the woods opposite, looking timidly in this direction.

When the Husky saw that he had the support of his owner, he became extremely aggressive and barked louder than ever.

One call can scare away birds, two calls can scare away snakes and rats, and three calls can make the red fox abandon its armor and flee back into the forest.

Chen Chuan quickly rubbed Erha's head to comfort him, but he found that the silly dog ​​was still barking.

The dog relied on the power of the master, and Erha's ferocity was fully revealed at this time. The old man barked.

Chen Chuan simply stretched out his hand and pinched his mouth.

The forest finally returned to silence.

Without Erha's voice, the red fox stopped and turned back tentatively.

It was not until this time that Chen Chuan began to take a good look at the fox.

The red fox, as its name suggests, is brown-red all over, but has white hair on its neck and belly.

It was not big in size, with a pair of fox eyes. It was the first time that Chen Chuan felt the word "good-looking" in an animal.

If Aho can be called "handsome", then this red fox can definitely be called "beautiful".

"Come here."

Chen Chuan waved in what he thought was a very friendly way.

The red fox still maintained this posture, with its whole body facing away from Chen Chuan, only its head turned back to look at him.

A pair of eyes, under the reflection of the light, appear green.

It was the first time that an animal looked at me like this. It was late at night, and it was a fox, in this deserted mountain.

To be honest, for a moment, a thought flashed through Chen Chuan's mind.

It’s over. Is this thing going to turn into a fox demon and come here to suck my yang energy?

The man and the fox just looked at each other, and both of them seemed to have turned into wood.

Huh?

Suddenly, Chen Chuan frowned, realizing that things didn't seem simple.

Logically speaking, from the red fox's perspective, if it wanted to look Chen Chuan in the eye, it would need to tilt its head back.

From this angle, what we can see looks like a Husky.

He lowered his head and glanced at Erha. Chen Chuan let go of his hand.

When the Husky felt the freedom of its mouth, it opened its mouth and barked for no reason.

This time, Chen Chuan saw it clearly. Following Erha's shout, the red fox shot out like a rocket.

A big jump must be at least three or four meters. However, Chen Chuan saw that his movements were not very smooth.

After about a minute, when it heard no more Husky's barking, it cautiously stuck its head out and hid its body behind the tree.

The case has been solved. This is not some late-night fox demon, it's just a little fox that is afraid of dogs.

After kicking the Husky, the silly dog ​​immediately understood what he meant and hid in his doghouse, wagging his tail.

The red fox blinked, and when the dog disappeared from its sight, it seemed to grow a little braver.

"Wow~"

It emerged from behind a tree and took a few timid steps forward.

Chen Chuan tried his best to smile gently, dimmed his headlights, and walked forward a few steps.

Unexpectedly, the fox seemed not to like running in both directions. When it saw Chen Chuan moving forward, it backed away in fear.

Calm down, Chen Chuan, you have to calm down. The little animals are just timid and they have no intention of teasing you.

He crouched down, trying not to let the little fox feel that he was in danger.

In this situation, the fragment of human genes that get along with animals seemed to awaken in Chen Chuan. He pressed his tongue against the roof of his mouth and pouted his mouth slightly.

The next moment, it seemed that it was about to make a "sucking" sound from its mouth to appease the red fox.

No!

The moment the sound was about to reach his throat, Chen Chuan realized the key to the matter, and hurriedly pulled himself in line and braked in time.

Humans are damn habitual creatures. If it weren't for his strong control, he would have wasted a precious opportunity.

"what is this?"

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, Chen Chuan happened to glance over and saw that there seemed to be something in the grass where Chi Hu had stood before.

As if noticing Chen Chuan's gaze, the red fox also turned its head to the side.

At this moment, the originally timid little fox suddenly found courage from nowhere and ran to the bush in two steps.

Although the distance between it and Chen Chuan was closer, it stared at Chen Chuan closely, even bending slightly, as if it was about to take action.

This made Chen Chuan curious.

He was too lazy to turn up the light to avoid scaring the red fox. Instead, he stretched out his hand and pointed behind the red fox.

"Little fox, what kind of treasure is this? You are protecting it so well."

The red fox kept baring its teeth, and when it saw Chen Chuanzhong's attack, it became even more ferocious.

"You look nothing like the timid you were before when you were afraid of Erha."

When he got closer, Chen Chuan noticed that the red fox's hind legs seemed to be injured.

No wonder, I felt something was wrong when I saw this little fox moving before.

He stretched out his hand again, wanting to comfort the other person, but seeing the other person's grinning face, Chen Chuan had to retract his hand in disappointment.

"Let's each take a step back."

Chen Chuan said this and took two steps back.

The red fox's hair, which was almost standing up, finally relaxed. It also stepped back and slowly pushed aside the bushes.

Chen Chuan narrowed his eyes, preparing to take a closer look at the thing in the grass.

It's white, has a cyan pattern, and is a bit tattered, um...

When Chen Chuan opened his squinted eyes, he felt a little toothache.

You think that what you are protecting like a calf is just a porcelain bowl?

It was still in tatters, with holes all over it, and the noodles in the bowl were dirty. Chen Chuan wouldn't want it even if I gave it to him.

The red fox stuck out its tongue and licked the bottom of the bowl gently.

But Chen Chuan saw clearly that there was nothing at the bottom of the bowl except some dirty mud and grass.

wrong?

Suddenly, a flash of lightning flashed through his mind. The style of this bowl gradually became familiar to Chen Chuan.

Isn't this kind of bowl the one in the previous ranger's cupboard? There are several more in the cupboard, but due to personal habit, Chen Chuan uses the bowls he brings with him.

I haven't used it much, so I didn't think of it the first time.

It seems that this bowl was given to the little fox by the previous ranger.

Then everything, it all makes sense.

Why is this little fox so embarrassed and timid, and why does he guard the bowl so tightly?
