Chapter 42: Fox Fur After explaining all the hunting knowledge, Zhao Erniu changed the subject and said, "Okay, I have explained these three points to you. The next step is to do the actual operation. You can learn by following me and watch me do it." "Okay." Gu Chan and the other two said in unison. Then the two of them followed Zhao Erniu and began to explore the forest. Zhao Erniu found several fox footprints and a path created by the foxes, and led Gu Chan and the others to track them forward. When they reached the middle of the forest, a straw cage appeared about twenty meters in front of the three of them. The three hid behind a big tree. Zhao Erniu pointed at the grass cage in front and said, "See it? That's the fox's den. If I'm not mistaken, this should be a female fox with a few cubs." "How strong is the fighting power of a mysterious beast like the fox?" Gu Chan asked. “Of course they are not as powerful as spiritual beasts, but they are considered top-level combatants among mysterious beasts. In particular, they are very cunning and can make people fall into their hands.” Zhao Erniu explained with a serious expression. Gu Chan listened and nodded secretly. Ma Zheng was crawling beside her, his face turned pale with fear and he didn't dare to breathe.
Zhao Erniu stared at the two and said, "Let's go! We are no match for this mysterious beast. Don't waste time here. It's better to find some bugs." "No! I've never seen a little fox cub in my life! Hide and watch for a while." Gu Chan quickly reached out and grabbed Zhao Erniu. "No, if we wait any longer, our lives may be in danger." "Fox fur and the like must be useful! When it takes its cubs out of the den to look for food, we can go into the den and take out some fox fur, right?" Gu Chan rolled her eyes and replied cunningly. Ma Zheng said, "Yes, fox fur can be used to make blankets. The fur alone can be sold for money. If it is made into a high-quality blanket, it will be even more valuable!" "This..." Zhao Erniu was speechless. As long as he can avoid life-threatening situations, he is willing to do any job that can make money. He also admitted that what Gu Chan said made sense. If we can't afford to offend a fox, can we not hide from it? As long as we wait a little longer, the mother fox will take her cubs to find food, and this den will be empty. We can still go in and take out some fox fur. Thinking of this, Zhao Erniu immediately nodded in agreement. The three of them continued to hide behind the big tree and waited. Gu Chan breathed a sigh of relief and a sly smile appeared on her face. Not bad! She deliberately set up a trick to make Zhao Erniu stay, not only to get the fox fur, but also to complete her own plan. When she left home in the morning, she brought with her the white spiritual herb, the Baibing Nine Spiritual Grass. Later, when the mother fox takes her cubs out, they will go into the den to take out fox fur. Then she can quietly put the spiritual herb into the den, and then say, "Wow! What a luck! I picked up a spiritual herb here." Isn't that enough? "Yeah! I'm so smart. I admire my own IQ." Thinking about this plan, Gu Chan couldn't help but praise herself in her heart. Zhao Erniu and Ma Zheng were completely unaware of what was happening and just lay on the ground waiting silently. An hour later.
As Gu Chan had expected, a burst of chirping sounds of a female fox suddenly came from the grass cage in front of her which had been quiet just now. [Little guys, wake up! Today I will take you to hunt for something delicious. ] [Mom, I want to drink milk. ] 【I don’t want to walk, I want to be carried on my back. 】 [Mom, I want to eat mushrooms today.] Behind the big tree, Gu Chan heard the conversation between the mother fox and her cubs clearly and couldn't help laughing. Zhao Erniu and Ma Zheng could not understand the animal language and could only hear the squeaking sounds made by the female fox. They were so scared that they lay on the ground and dared not move, for fear of being discovered by the female fox. Gu Chan wanted to say, "Don't be nervous, the vixens are quite harmonious and didn't notice us." But she didn't dare say that she could understand animal language. You can imagine how frustrated she was at the moment. Outside the fox den in front, the white mother fox had already brought her five cubs out of the den. She looked around vigilantly, and after making sure everything was safe, she led the children into the woods on the right. Only after they all left without making any sound did Zhao Erniu suddenly stand up and say, "Let's go, now." After saying that, he took the lead and ran towards the fox den in front. Gu Chan and Ma Zheng followed closely behind him. Soon the three of them crawled into the huge fox den and began to grab handfuls of fox fur and stuff them into their pockets. "Wow! It stinks!" Gu Chan screamed with a stiff face while digging out the fox fur. The fox den was so smelly that she had to cover her mouth and nose with one hand. Zhao Erniu said anxiously, "Stop talking, hurry up, or the female fox will come back and it will be difficult for us to escape." "Oh! What is this?" Gu Chan exclaimed in a deep voice pretending to be surprised. Just now, while Zhao Erniu was talking, she had quietly reached into her arms, took out the hidden White Ice Nine Spirit Grass, and quietly stuffed it under a pile of fox fur in the fox den in front of her. Zhao Erniu and Ma Zheng were startled and hurried over to see what was happening. Seeing that Gu Chan actually took out a magical herb from the fox den, Zhao Erniu was shocked, "Oh my god! Could this be a magical herb?" "Absolutely! How can ordinary herbs be of such quality?" Ma Zheng exclaimed with his mouth wide open. Gu Chan looked excited, "Oh my god! I'm so lucky. I actually found a magical herb in a fox den. I'm really lucky." "Put it away first, take out some fox fur and leave quickly. We'll talk about it when we get back." Zhao Erniu calmed down and urged. Gu Chan nodded, and quickly picked up the Bai Bing Nine Spirit Grass and stuffed it into her arms. Then the three of them continued to take out the fox fur. "Oh my God! I'm so lucky." After digging for a while, Ma Zheng suddenly cried out in a deep voice again. Gu Chan and Zhao Erniu surrounded them again. The two of them looked down and were so shocked that their mouths could not close.
Under the pile of fox fur in front of Ma Zheng, there was actually a white fox as big as a kitten. If Gu Chan's surprise just now was fake, then her surprise now is completely real! Who would have thought that there was still a little fox left in this fox den. It's just a pity that this little fox is too small, very different from a normal little fox, and most importantly, its body is now stiff, its mouth can only move slightly, and it can't even make a sound. It is obvious that it was born with congenital weakness, which led to it being dying now. It was abandoned by the mother fox and left to fend for itself. Zhao Erniu didn't care about the little fox's life or death. Instead, he stared at it with his eyes drooling and said, "Pack it up and take it back. I'll make a good soup tonight." Ma Zheng nodded excitedly, and quickly reached out to grab the dying little fox and put it in his arms. (End of this chapter)
