C6 She's My Sister
The fox jumped up and down after being hit by the rocks and roared in anger, "I'm not lying to you, I need to recover my spirit energy to activate the Dragon Ball and send you back! How come you don't understand human language? "
"You ate the whole chicken and still haven't recovered?"
"This ordinary old hen in the mortal world can only fill its stomach, how can it recover spirit energy? It's easy for you to think about it!"
"Then you want me to steal chickens for you?"
The more Su Yan thought about it, the angrier she got. The faster she threw the stones, the faster the fox suddenly became impatient. It used its body to block a few stones and suddenly moved in front of Su Yan. It forcefully pinched her neck.
"Don't be too impudent!"
Suddenly, a sharp arrow shot from the left. The fox hurriedly dodged but still felt a chill on its neck. Its hand touched the blood on the other hand.
Su Yan was stunned for a moment and turned around to look in the direction of the arrow. Qin Shiling was standing under the tree. The shadow of the sun projected the leaf's reflection on his face. His expression could not be seen clearly, but he was pulling the longbow in his hand. The sharp arrow was aimed at the human-shaped fox.
"No!" Just as Su Yan's anxious voice was heard, the arrow left the bow. Even if the fox wanted to dodge, it was powerless. It only avoided the vital parts. The arrow still hit his shoulder. His white clothes were instantly dyed red.
This fox could not die. It was her only hope to return! He was a vixen, but he could not even dodge an arrow shot out by a person. It seemed that what he said about having no spiritual energy was true.
Seeing that Qin Shiling was about to shoot out the third arrow with an ugly expression, Su Yan quickly ran in front of him and grabbed his arm.
"Don't hurt him, he... He..." Su Yan was anxious to find a reason. First of all, where did this person come from? Secondly, why did this person pinch her neck, but she could not find a reason for him after a long time.
On the other hand, Fox stood up from the ground. He covered his wound with his hand and sneered at Su Yan, "Older sister found a good husband's home and did not even care about younger brother's life, right?"
Su Yan was stunned and immediately had an idea in her mind. She held Qin Shiling's hand and anxiously explained, "He is my younger brother. He travelled thousands of miles and crossed the mountains and rivers to find me. Just now, we were just playing around!"
Qin Shiling looked at their faces for a while and seemed to find that their skin color was the same as white. He had heard Su Yan say that she was a young lady from a rich family, so he believed her in his heart. He slowly put down the bow and arrow.
Then, his eyes fell on the fire at the side. The fire had been completely extinguished, leaving only a few pieces of wood that had been burnt into charcoal. Some broken bones scattered around, and a pile of chicken feathers floated not far away.
Damn it, he had been discovered!
Su Yan panicked in her heart, and then her gaze fell on the fox's shoulder that was bleeding non-stop. Her heart panicked again. That arrow wouldn't have hit the artery, right?
The fox did not have any expression on his face. He grabbed the arrow and pulled it out with force. The blood on his shoulder immediately flowed even faster.
Su Yan was anxious, but Qin Shiling took out a wooden box. The smell of the chopped herbs came out.
"Apply the medicine. It will stop bleeding in fifteen minutes."
"Thank you." She took the box and prepared to take off Fox's clothes.
Unexpectedly, Fox smiled at Qin Shiling. Her long and narrow eyebrows showed a cool light in her eyes.
"Brother-in-law, my name is Su Chenxi."
Su Yan was shocked. She did not expect him to call Qin Shiling brother-in-law.
Her current identity was only rented by Qin Shiling in the pawnshop. The time limit was one year for a wife. Even if this fox was really her brother, what kind of brother-in-law was this Qin Shiling?
Qin Shiling would definitely change his face. Su Yan looked at him. However, she found that he only frowned slightly and walked over to hold Su Yan's hand. Then she used the bow to pat the shoulder of the uninjured fox and said, "Let's go home."
Su Yan felt that Qin Shiling was really a good-tempered person. This good temper did not match with his fierce appearance at all, but his good temper had always refreshed her understanding.
If not for Widow Lee telling her about Qin Shiling's experiences since he was young, she would have thought that he had bad intentions.
Originally, Qin Shiling had to hunt from morning to night before he returned home. But because he shot the fox, the three of them went back together at noon.
When they walked to the door of their house together, they saw Widow Lee squatting outside their yard.
Her fat body almost blocked the door of the yard. When she saw the three people walking towards her, she was stunned for a moment and then walked over with a fierce face.
Su Yan's heart jumped. Could it be that they knew they stole the chicken?
After Widow Lee walked forward, she first sized up the morning sun that followed behind her. Then, her face flashed with surprise. In the next moment, the fierce expression on her face disappeared completely. It was as if she had put on a play of changing faces in front of everyone. Su Yan was very surprised when she saw it.
Widow Lee secretly looked up at the fox again and then said loudly, "That one in your family... Cough cough, where did your family's fox go?"
She quickly looked up at the cold morning sun. Then she pinched her throat and said softly," My chicken is gone, so this fox prefers to eat chicken. Did your fox steal my chicken? "
After saying that, she raised her head and quickly looked at Chenxi. After that, she reluctantly looked at Su Yan's face and her expression became fierce again.
Su Yan could not help but take a step back. She looked at Widow Lee and then looked at Chenxi and suddenly felt funny in her heart. She really deserved to be called a fox spirit. This old widow, who was in her forties, could not move her eyes away from her.
Chenxi also noticed Widow Lee's gaze and a trace of anger and humiliation flashed across her face. She fiercely glared at Widow Lee and then turned her head away.
After Widow Lee's reminder, Qin Shiling suddenly thought of the chicken feathers that he saw on the ground by the stream. There was also the leftover firewood after the roasted chicken. He looked at Widow Lee and was about to speak. Su Yan rushed to speak in front of him.
"Why would my fox steal your chicken? The white fox is a very intelligent and precious breed. It might even be a deity that descended to the mortal world. I brought it into the forest early on and let it go."
Qin Shiling looked at her in surprise. Su Yan was afraid that he would expose her lie, so she stood in front of him and deliberately pinched his palm.
A strange expression flashed across Qin Shiling's face. Then he looked like a pirate and said to Widow Lee, "Yes, the fox hasn't woken up from my sleep these few days. Yesterday when it suddenly woke up, it scratched me, so today I threw it into the forest to fend for myself. It definitely didn't steal your family's chicken."
