Chapter 12 Nightmare
  Fox people are born with a high body temperature.

The slender arm wrapped around her shoulders and neck, locking it into his arms. With the furry touch brushing across his chin, Lou Qixue pierced his entire head.

Yan Conngling was sleepy, but not dead.

The dagger hidden under her sleeve was quietly retracted, and she turned slightly sideways, trying to avoid the fox that sucked her away like catnip.

But as soon as she moved, the other party immediately stuck to her like a pancake sticking to a pan.

Yan Conling:...

Just as I was thinking about whether to speak, the next moment a little warmth seemed to spread around my neck...

She paused slightly and swallowed back her words of rejection.

June is sultry, and the cicadas chirping outside the window are shrill and harsh.

The grass blades were no different from ordinary weeds, but they exuded just the right amount of coolness. A skinny old hand came around and gently touched one of the leaves.

The green light like stars spread out lightly.

Yan Conling was stunned for a moment, then turned back to meet the old man's kind eyes, "Grandma..."

The old man gently took her young hand and placed it on it.

The unique touch of grass and trees came from the fingertips, followed by a language different from that of humans, which came to mind with joy and shyness.

Yan Ling Cao.

The most intimate partner of the Yan family.

No matter where you are, as long as it exists, you can receive information.

The Yan family is one with them.

Yan Conling was a little dazed, as if she hadn't felt this way for a long time.

Their family is born with five senses that are different from ordinary people, and they can communicate with this strange spiritual grass. But I don’t know when it started. She always felt that her five senses were closed and she could no longer communicate with the spiritual grass...

The big bell was rang hastily, echoing throughout the mountain forest, shocking people's hearts.

The old man looked back with a solemn expression. Not far away, a middle-aged man with his face covered in blood was stumbling towards him and fell heavily in front of the two of them.

Yan Conngling recognized him. He was his second uncle... He had two daughters. My cousin just went out yesterday and said she wanted to buy her candied haws...

The faces of her closest relatives were always shrouded in mist, and she could not clearly see their expressions. She could only sense what was being exchanged in an anxious and panicky manner.

The old man was leaning on a cane and was soon heading to the black smoke-filled place in the distance. Yan Conling's heart tightened, and inexplicable fear and chill surged like a tide, flooding his whole body.

She opened her mouth to shout, but it felt like a heavy piece of iron was stuck in her throat, making no sound possible. I can only watch her back getting further and further away until she disappears completely...

The smoke came quickly, and it was the first time I saw black flames.

There was a hot and burning smell all around, and the air seemed to be melted into a pool of surging liquid.

The huge unknown beast was covered in black energy, and the ground shook with every step it took, bringing with it countless blood and broken limbs.

It can go this far.

There is obviously only one answer - they failed to stop it.

Yan Conling was lying in the grass and looked up to see an unforgettable scene.

The burned houses and the tribesmen facing the enemy were all swallowed up by the giant beast whose face was blurry and unclear. The sound of bones being chewed was extremely clear and creepy in the dead silence of the open space.

She was covered by the Yanling grass that had been burned and curled, but still protected her.

The baby's cry completely crumpled the night of death.

The middle-aged man with weak breath on the ground struggled to crawl forward, his eyes full of despair and pain. All sounds were completely drowned in the hot, windless summer night.

The giant beast suddenly began to twist, stretch, and sway in her eyes... swallowing like a python, biting like a tiger and leopard... all animals lost their fixed shapes.

She could no longer recognize them.

All I know is that it is a monster and a blood feud.

The last sight in my memory is the scene of it slowly walking towards me...

"grandmother!"

Sweat wet her forehead and pillow towel, and Yan Conngling sat up in shock. Her breathing was rapid and her eyes were blurry. She looked like she had just been fished out of the water.

"From the spirit!?"

Lou Qixue quickly held her down and patted her back to comfort her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's okay..."

During the years when he and Yan Conling shared the same bed, she would be awakened almost every night by the nightmare from the past. Then the look in his eyes was extremely complicated, just like... now.

After calming down my turbulent mind, I looked out the window at the bright sky, and the cicadas were still chirping sharply.

"What time is it now?"

"It's almost lunch time. I've cooked porridge and it's still heating on the stove."

Lou Qixue looked at her expression and explained.

"You rested too late last night. I wanted you to sleep a little longer, so I didn't wake you up." And if I remembered correctly, it was rare for her to take a break today.

"I got up late myself..."

Yan Conling put on her clothes and stood up, quickly calming down and saying, "I'm going to patrol the city today. You can eat lunch by yourself."

"Is patrolling the city your job?"

Lou Qixue's face turned dark.

She really never left home.

"of course not."

Yan Conling bit her hair rope and was pulling up her long hanging hair, her words were a little vague.

"I have nothing to do at home anyway. I heard that a restaurant has opened in the city that takes in stray cats and dogs. You only need to buy a small bag of dried meat and fish to go in and touch it..."

She suddenly remembered that Lou Qixue was also furry.

He quickly changed the subject, "When I come back, I will bring you two beggar chickens. Do you prefer the fatter neck or the butt?"

There is no fox who can resist a fat chicken.

It's a pity that Lou Qixue is not an ordinary fox, so he doesn't accept her trick.

"Who wants to eat what beggars eat?"

"You don't feel dirty even if you pet stray cats and dogs."

While he was talking, he had already stretched out his ears and tail.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious.

He was already good-looking in his animal form, but now he was even more eye-catching with a beautiful face.

Yan Conling only glanced at it and then looked away, with joy in his light tone, "Oh, I forgot to mention that the cats and dogs in the restaurant are very well-behaved. As soon as the guests sit down, they will come to them and they are clingy. And cute.”

The fox demon in front of her stared at her.

Although I clearly know that this is a provocative method.

But I still don’t want her to touch other furries from the bottom of my heart.

Can the fur of a group of mortal beasts be as soft as his?

Can his ears and tail be as good as his?
  And no matter what, he is also a vixen. If you can't even compare to stray cats and dogs, you might as well just find a piece of tofu and hit them to death.

After struggling a few times, Lou Qixue simply felt heartbroken.

Yan Conling didn't even expect that he would give in so quickly. Before she could react, the other party had already thrust his head into her arms.

While blushing and gnashing her teeth, she didn't forget to take her hand and put it on her furry ears.

"Don't go! Touch me!"

Under the palm was the unique warmth and softness of the living monster's fur, and the bloody fragments flashed past in his mind again.

She lowered her eyelashes and silently suppressed the killing intent in her heart...
