Shen Xinghun packed up, left Kuangfeng, and rushed to the mission location.

It was a small village, not very far from the Phoenix Nest, and it took only two days to ride a horse. Shen Xinghun came to the market to buy a horse, prepared some dry food and drinking water, and set off for the small village.

Along the way, Shen Xinghun wondered how to get close to Lin Xincheng, but after thinking about it, there was no good idea, so he had to live in the village first.

Two days passed in a flash. Shen Xinghun looked at the small village at the foot of the mountain. There were not many families, only a dozen households. The houses were built casually and there was no pattern. You could build houses wherever you wanted. There was a big willow tree at the entrance of the village, and a winding stream surrounded the village.

Some women brought their own clothes to the stream to wash. Some people were also farming in the fertile fields not far away. Shen Xinghun got off the horse and walked, and the white little beast lay lazily on his shoulder and napping.

When I walked into the village, I saw some children running around and playing. I was not afraid when I saw Shen Xinghun. Instead, I came forward to say hello and asked Shen Xinghun what he was doing.

Shen Xinghun just said that he passed by here and saw that it was getting late. He didn't know if he could ask for a drink and stayed overnight.

The children ran away and dispersed, returned home to get drinking water, and handed it to Shen Xinghun. After a while, Shen Xinghun already had four or five water scoops in his hand.

Shen Xinghun took out some candies from his arms and distributed them to the children around him. With the candies, the children went home one after another.

When the white little beast saw that his candy was given to someone else by Shen Xinghun, he compared his claws with a little unhappy look, and closed his eyes and took a nap.

Shen Xinghun continued to walk forward with the horse, passed by the oldest yard, knocked on the door, and walked out of an old man.

The old man looked about seventy years old, but he was in good spirits, with a rosy face and straight body, which looked quite like a fairy-like appearance. However, his clothes were very worn out in thick and lump clothes, and he had a lot of patches, but they were very clean.

The old man looked at Shen Xinghun and said:

"Young Master, I don't know why I am holding my family?"

"Brother-in-law, I passed by here. It was already late. I wonder if it was convenient for me to stay at my house for a night?"

Seeing that the visitor was polite, the old man smiled slightly and let Shen Xinghun come in.

The old man lives alone, with no children and no children. His wife also passed away more than ten years ago. It was very difficult for him to live alone. Shen Xinghun tied the horses and walked into the house with the old man.

The house is not big, divided into two rooms inside and outside. The outside house contains some miscellaneous items, a table and a few chairs, and the inside is a bedroom, with a bed, and some wooden boxes for clothes.

He signaled Shen Xinghun to sit down, and the old man brewed a pot of tea and poured a cup for Shen Xinghun.

"Where are you going?"

"I came out to explore the world and didn't know where I plan to go next."

"It's okay, it's okay. If you don't dislike it, just live here first and treat it as your own home. It's better to leave if you have plans. Anyway, I'm alone, so it's rare that someone will chat with me."

The old man smiled, and Shen Xinghun's arrival made him very happy.

The two chatted for a while, and the old man got up to prepare supper. Shen Xinghun came to the yard to help.

While the two were busy, the white beast came back with a flower in its mouth.

Not long after entering the village, the white beast disappeared. Shen Xinghun was not worried. There were no monks here, and ordinary people could not hurt it. The white beast was docile and would not hurt people for no reason, so it went there.

When I came back at this moment, I brought back a pink flower. The flowers were very big, about the same size as the body of a small beast. It was blooming in its lush time and was picked by it.

The flowers are very fragrant, but the fragrance is not strong, very light and light. They need to be felt carefully before they can be smelled, intermittent and non-existent. The first time they smell it makes people unable to help but pursue the fragrance.

The old man was stunned when the white little beast appeared. When he saw it standing on Shen Xinghun's shoulder, he understood that this was raised by Shen Xinghun.

Shen Xinghun explained to the old man that the white little beast was his friend and would not hurt others, so that the old man could rest assured.

The old man nodded to express his understanding. The two of them worked hard for a while to prepare for supper.

It was not very rich, but the taste was really good. The white little beast also snatched a lot of food from Shen Xinghun's chopsticks. After eating, it was satisfied and lying on Shen Xinghun's shoulders without moving.

Shen Xinghun poked the little beast with his finger and said:

"I've been so fat that I've been sleeping after eating, and I'm not afraid of getting fat to you."

The little beast stood up and squeaked, compared his own body, and pointed at Shen Xinghun again.

It means no matter how fat I am, you are not as fat as you.

Shen Xinghun had a dark face and didn't know how to explain it to the little beast.

From this day on, Shen Xinghun lived in the old man's house, helping the old man with some farm work every day. Sometimes he went up the mountain to catch some wild game, but he did not eat or live in vain.

The old man was very happy these days, and he smiled every day, slowly treating Shen Xinghun as his relative.

The white beast disappeared once a few days later. When he came back, he was holding a flower in his mouth. Shen Xinghun didn't care at first, thinking that it was just a flower growing between the mountains and fields. Until one day he passed by a courtyard and saw a small garden inside.

All of the gardens are full of these flowers, but some of them do not have flowers on them.

Shen Xinghun came back and grabbed the little beast and started ideological education for it.

Tell it not to steal the flowers and plants that others have worked hard to grow, and the little beast nodded in a vague way.

One day later, the little beast disappeared again and had not come back in the evening. Shen Xinghun was a little worried. Generally, it should come back at this time. With the little beast's personality, he would not stop eating supper for no reason.

Shen Xinghun was about to go out to search. When he walked to the door, he was about to open the door when he heard a knock on the door. Shen Xinghun opened the yard door and stood outside.

The man looked about forty years old, with a tall figure, sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and his eyes were full of righteousness. Shen Xinghun looked at the man and saw a little beast in his hand.

The white little beast was now covered in dirt, with resentment on its face. It hugged its two claws in front of its chest. When it saw Shen Xinghun, its big eyes were filled with tears. It pointed at the man in black, and then made a move to hit it.

Shen Xinghun clasped his fists and gave a tribute first, and said:

"Sir, what's the matter?"

The man in black looked at Shen Xinghun and said:

"Are you the owner of this little beast?"

Shen Xinghun shook his head.

"Not the master, it's my friend."

"No matter what your relationship is, it steals my flowers again and again, and this time it blatantly snatches it from me!"

Shen Xinghun complained in his heart. He didn't let the little beast steal it, but he didn't expect him to rob it directly.

Before Shen Xinghun could speak, the man in black continued to speak.

"No need to say anything else, I'll give you two choices. First, help me plant flowers and take care of the garden. Second, I peeled it and stewed it, and I haven't eaten meat for a long time."

Speaking of this, the man in black picked up the little beast and looked at it, licked the corner of his mouth.

The little beast was scared and covered his eyes, not daring to look at the man in black, and looked at Shen Xinghun pitifully.

Shen Xinghun sighed and agreed to the man in black to help him plant flowers, so he changed it back to the white little beast.
