Ning Que was in seclusion in Houya Cave, which was similar to the treatment he had when someone was in the cave a long time ago. The senior brothers and sisters in the Houshan were afraid that he would be lonely and would always come to Houya in their spare time. Jun Mo and the senior brother repaired the thatched house opposite the entrance of the cave, and instantly brought Sangsang. The third senior sister brought two books. Chen Pipi often went up the mountain to solve Ning Que's problems...

One day, Chen Pipi took the fox up the mountain and answered some questions that Ning Que encountered in his practice. After fighting with Ning Que for a while, he lost because of the bickering. He felt uncomfortable staying on the cliff and looking at the ugly face, so he took the fox to go down the mountain.

At this time, Sangsang just set up a stove, and some cabbage and tofu that ordinary people in Chang'an City could be seen in the pot. There was only these simple ingredients, but the pot exuded a scent that made people's index fingers tremble. The little fox and Chen Pipi looked at each other, and Chen Pipi's pace became much slower when he left.

Sangsang was mixing the dough in a porcelain basin. When he saw the reaction of a person and a fox, he smiled and said, "Since Senior Brother Thirteen and Xiaobai are here to visit the young master, then stay for dinner."

Xiaobai is the name given by Sangsang, because the little fox is indeed very white, and because the little fox is very smart, he is smarter than the snow wolf that lies on the southern foot of the Min Mountains. Sangsang never treats it as a real fox.

Chen Pipi held the little fox and looked at Sangsang with satisfaction, then looked at Ning Que in the hole provocatively, sat on a rock and waited.

Sangsang was still busy. Ning Que looked at Chen Pipi and found that the fox of the twelfth brother was willing to stay in the arms of the fat man Chen Pipi. He had seen it many times. When many people in the back mountain wanted to hug the fox, except for the third sister, the rest of the people could not escape the fate of being scratched by the fox's claws and broken sleeves every time.

"Senior Brother Thirteen, why is this fox willing to stay with you?"

The little fox was too lazy to pay attention to Ning Que. Chen Pipi touched the fox's head and said, "I may be born with great affinity, just like in the back mountain, I am more caring for my seniors than you."

After saying that, he added another sentence in his heart, of course, if you are willing to give half of all your delicious food to this little guy, and add a sentence from Senior Brother Twelve, you may be able to get some of its favor to you.

Speaking of foxes, people can't help but think of Ye Qi. Ning Que glared at Chen Pipi and asked, "Why haven't you seen the Twelfth Senior Brother these days?"

Chen Pipi and the little fox looked at each other again, and each fox's eyes were full of doubts. Where did that person go?

Then, Chen Pipi gave birth to a cold sweat on his forehead. In the past few days, he actually forgot his twelfth senior brother. Even the little fox who was closest to his twelfth senior brother also forgot. Whose method is this? Master, or Senior Brother?

...

In a small town at the border between Yan and Song, Ye Qi held the formation plate with one hand and the iron sword with the other, and walked in slowly. He seemed not to be here to kill people, but was tired of some life and wanted to come to the town to spend the rest of his life peacefully.

The town is not big, with only a simple street and alley paved with gravel, with gray-walled tile houses built along both sides of the street and alley.

There is no one on the street, a little deserted, and occasionally the flies flying among the rotten vegetable leaves piled up on both sides of the streets and alleys seem weak.

Ye Qi looked at the other side of the street and alley, in front of a house there, a coarse cloth was hung, with only two words outlined by simple charcoal black marks on the coarse cloth, and the butcher shop.

A faint sound of cutting meat came from the butcher shop. It might be difficult for people to hear it through the streets and alleys, but Ye Qi was not an ordinary person and could hear those sounds, so he walked straight towards the butcher shop.

When I walked to the butcher shop, a stall appeared under the eaves of the house. The stall directly leads to the courtyard of the house. The stall was filled with fresh pork that had just been cut into pieces. A butcher seemed to have not noticed someone, and was still cutting the pork.

There were many flies gathered outside the stall. I don’t know if I were afraid of the butcher or the knife in the butcher’s hand, but I just flew, but I never dared to get closer to the pork.

Ye Qi felt that the flies were a little annoying, and waved his hand. The flies in the entire streets and alleys fell to the ground. If you look carefully, you will find that the flies in the entire streets and alleys were cut in half, and the incision was flat, just like those flies should have been born in two halves.

The knife in the butcher stopped, chopped it on the chopping board, looked up at the boy who appeared in front of him, and said, "I waited for many days, but I thought you didn't dare to come."

Ye Qi looked at the pork on the stall and did not respond to his words, saying, "These pork must be very unpalatable."

The butcher asked in confusion: "When there are still many people in the town, many people are willing to buy my pork. No one has ever said it was very unpalatable. You just took a look, why did you say it was unpalatable?"

Ye Qi pointed to the meat and said, "Because these pigs must have died in extreme fear before they died. How could such meat be delicious?"

The butcher suddenly realized and said, "I understand. It's like a person who dies of fear. It will definitely be ugly. Since it's ugly, how can it taste delicious?"

Ye Qi said: "It's a pity that these pigs are. Although the final result is hard to avoid being killed and become meat on people's plates, if given to other butchers, they should die faster. If they are kept in your hands, they can only be killed like humans."

The butcher pulled up the meat knife that was chopped on the chopping board, and the grease accumulated over the years suddenly peeled off, just like a pile of paper scraped on the ground by the wind.

"What I am afraid of is the Master, not you. Since you are here, today you should be the one I will kill again many years later."

Ye Qi raised his lips and smiled plainly, saying, "One likes to kill but does not dare to kill, the other likes to greed but only dares to be greedy. Today, you dare to let me see it, which also shows that you are really brave."

A middle-aged scholar carrying a wine pot appeared on the side of the butcher shop store. He drank the wine in the pot and said: "If a person lives long enough, it doesn't matter if he is afraid of such things as hairs on his body, but it is also because of fear that we live long enough."

Ye Qi asked, "Even if he lives like a dog?"

The drunkard said, "You have never seen that terrifying disaster. When you can't see a ray of light after thousands of years and the local heat current is gradually swallowed up by the darkness, people can only hug each other and keep warm. However, the conditions for people to live are not just temperature, people also need to eat, but it's too cold outside, so what should they do?"

"So the two people who were still hugging each other the day before, and on the next day, one person would become food for someone else."

"So I hope I will live forever, as long as I live forever, even if I am a dog."
