Xue Li rushed to the Snow Wolf in one breath, intending to jump around him, wanting to see his recovered injuries.

But Xue Li had just rushed halfway when she immediately felt something was wrong.

She suddenly realized that the wolf had grown so big!

When the big snow wolf fell from the sky, Xue Li already found that he was very big, but Zi Lan had been lying on the ground since then, so it was hard to see. Now that he stood up, Xue Li realized that he was actually taller than she had imagined!

His ivory-white body is as majestic as a mountain, his fluffy, fresh white hair flutters gently in the breeze, beautiful and proud, his eyes are like ink-stained jade, calm and unfathomable.

The snow-white wolf stood there quietly, as if time had stopped, motionless.

Xue Li had been learning medicine from her aunt since she was young, so when she picked up the snow wolf a few days ago, she could tell at a glance that he was so badly injured and must be unable to move. So when the white deer, the rabbit and the others showed fear, Xue Li did not find it very scary.

But now it's different.

As soon as the snow wolf stood up, Xue Li instantly felt the huge difference in their body sizes, and she was suddenly scared for a moment.

From the little fox's perspective, the wolf was incredibly tall and was particularly terrifying when it approached. The fox really had to raise its head to see it.

Xueli was stunned. At this moment, she finally understood the feelings of the white deer and the rabbit, and she couldn't help but shudder. Xueli rushed to the big snow wolf and then swiftly jumped back two steps to distance herself from him.

Fortunately, Xue Li was only afraid for a moment. She saw the layers of bandages on Zi Lan's body and remembered that his injuries were still very serious. It might be difficult for him to just stand up, so she came to her senses.

Xueli regained her spirits, but she became anxious again when she saw Zi Lan's look. She repeated in her mind, "My fairyland is fine," to encourage herself. She quickly ran to him and said, "Your injury has just healed a little, and you can't stand up yet! Lie down quickly! Let me help you!"

Zi Lan didn't quite understand what was going on. He saw the little fox rushing towards him in great joy after discovering that he could walk. Although it took two steps back for some reason and looked a little hesitant with its ears drooped, it immediately started to cry around him again, obviously very happy for him.

Zi Lan's injuries were not healed after all. Walking around the fairyland had indeed exhausted all his strength. He struggled to lie back on the ground and lay on his side.

Xue Li immediately came forward with the basket in her mouth, gave the snow wolf the carrot cake in it, and then hurriedly checked the snow wolf's physical condition.

She didn't expect Snow Wolf to be able to leave so soon. She was surprised and curious about his recovery.

Xueli came up to Zilan, climbed up and down, checked him inside and out, patted here and there with her little paws, and asked: "Does it hurt here? Does it hurt here?"

Xue Li knew that the Snow Wolf couldn't understand her, so she used the patting method. However, the big Snow Wolf didn't show any signs of pain in any part of his body from beginning to end, and even his breathing didn't become heavier.

However, he had walked quite a long way today, and Xueli still found a few open wounds and bandaged Zilan again. At the same time, she found that Xuelang's injuries were indeed much better than yesterday.

Except for the three most serious claw wounds on his back, the other wounds no longer became inflamed, and several of the previously shocking wounds had scabbed over overnight.

Xue Li was delighted.

Her herbs worked.

This was the first time Xue Li encountered such a huge, powerful and ethereal creature. It was difficult for her to determine the exact dosage and she was not sure how much effect it would have, so she could only proceed by trial and error.

Now her herbs were very successful, and the Snow Wolf's recovery ability was quite good, which showed that her judgment was correct.

As long as you take this medicine next time, the snow wolf will recover soon.

Xueli was overjoyed. She jumped up and down happily and couldn't wait to go back and write down her achievements in the notebook. She kept wagging her tail.

Zi Lan looked at Xue Li's unconcealed joy, ate the radish cake in silence, and felt extremely soft in her heart.

In fact, after Zi Lan was able to move, Xue Li could have taken him back to her home as soon as possible. However, considering that Zi Lan's current physical condition was not suitable for walking, she let him stay in the forest for two more days. After investigating the fairyland, Zi Lan was not so urgent about this matter for the time being, so he did not move around anymore.

So seven or eight days passed like this.

Xue Li changed Snow Wolf's medicine and delivered food on time these two days, and saw Snow Wolf becoming more energetic day by day.

By the time the third dose of medicine was given, the snow wolf had not yet fully recovered, but it was able to walk short distances without any problems.

So Xue Li began to plan for the Big Snow Wolf to move.

"Xue Li, do you really want to let that wolf live in your house?"

Early in the morning, when Xue Li was cleaning up the cabin, the little white deer who came to help her said with some concern.

Xueli moved everything in the room, then stepped back a few steps to see the effect. She pushed the furniture with her head and replied, "Yeah! It's just a short time anyway, it doesn't matter."

Bai Lu was still worried when he thought about the huge size of the snow wolf, but when he heard Xue Li's relaxed tone and that the big wolf was almost recovered, there was no better way, so he had to follow her instructions and help move the furniture.

When it was almost noon, Xue Li jumped back into the forest.

The big wolf was still lying obediently in the same place. He could now lie upright with ease, which made him look taller than when he was lying on his side.

Xueli ran to him, touched him a few times, and said, "Come with me! You don't have to live here anymore. I'll take you home!"

As she spoke, Xueli ran to the front to lead the way, jumping hard, and then patted the ground with her tail, signaling him to catch up quickly.

Zi Lan watched as the little nine-tailed fox, which had come here in the morning, came back again, happily stroked his fur and cried out, then ran to the front and patted his tail.

Xue Li conveyed her meaning very clearly this time, and Zi Lan immediately realized that she wanted him to follow.

Zi Lan thought about what he had heard from them before, and immediately realized that the little fox was going to take him home.

Zi Lan had never been to a girl's house before, and he had already known that the little fox had such a plan. But when he saw her really come over to invite him, his heart suddenly tightened, and he felt restrained and nervous. His ears trembled with worry, and even his back was tense.

"Ouch?"

Seeing that Zi Lan had not followed her for a long time, Xue Li tilted her head in confusion and patted the ground with her tail to urge him.

Seeing this, Zi Lan knew that he could not keep the little fox waiting any longer, so he made up his mind, stood up, and slowly followed.

The small animals in the forest had already learned in advance that the big snow wolf was going to move today, and they had been waiting on the path that they had to pass. The birds were perched high on the highest branches, and the rabbits and wild mice were hiding cautiously behind the grass and trees, watching and secretly protecting the snow pear.

Everyone was on edge.

I saw Xue Li running in front leading the way. Every few steps she would look back to see if the snow wolf was catching up.

The Snow Wolf's current condition was that it could only walk fluently but still could not run. It followed Xue Li slowly, without looking around, and paid no attention to the animals hiding around.

Under the gaze of many small animals, they passed through the forest and arrived at Sydney's cabin.

Xue Li introduced enthusiastically: "This is it! Come in! You can stay here temporarily until we make sure you are safe and find a suitable cave for you to use as a wolf den!"

Having said that, Xue Li ran over and opened the door familiarly, motioning for Xue Lang to come in.

Zi Lan didn't understand what the little nine-tailed fox said, but from her expression and form, he guessed that her series of howlings were probably to introduce the situation here to him. So Zi Lan looked around and tried to understand it himself.

He had been to this place once before, and knew that this wooden house was the little fox's home. The wooden house stood by the water. In addition to the main house, there was also a kitchen outside that should be used for cooking. Some plants were simply planted outside the house, but they did not seem to be food, but herbs. There seemed to be some signs for explanation next to these planted herbs, but Zi Lan took a glance and found that he could not understand the words used in this fairyland.

It only took him a moment to observe all this. He turned around and planned to follow the little nine-tailed fox into the house.

Zi Lan took a few steps and climbed the stairs, but when he was almost at the door, his paws paused.

This is the home of the little nine-tailed fox.

From now on, they will live in it together.

Thinking about having to live in the same room with the little nine-tailed fox day and night, Zi Lan was at a loss and became more and more embarrassed. He lowered his head to hide the heat under his fur, lightened his footsteps, and walked in lightly.

In the morning, Xue Li and other animals cleaned up the place for the snow wolf to live.

He definitely couldn't enter his aunt's room, and Xue Li's own room couldn't fit such a big wolf, so they moved the furniture in the outermost big room, moved the wooden shelves containing herbs and books aside, and squeezed them together to make a space for the snow wolf to lie down. Xue Li also laid a blanket and cushion here for him in advance, indicating that this was his bed.

However, even the most spacious house seemed a little cramped after the Snow Wolf walked in. He probably had to move around outside the house on a regular basis, with only a tile covering the roof when he slept.

But even so, Snow Wolf was already very grateful and touched. He was now an injured person, and the current situation undoubtedly improved his recuperation environment a lot.

He bowed his head slightly towards Xue Li, hoping that the little nine-tailed fox could feel his gratitude.

Then he also looked carefully at the environment inside the house.

It would have been fine if he hadn't paid much attention to it before, but when Zi Lan saw it, he couldn't help but be stunned.

He originally thought that the little nine-tailed fox lived alone, but when he looked at the items and furniture in the house, it was not difficult to find that the house actually belonged to two people.

Perhaps this fairyland is really small and the owner of this house has never had any visitors, so it is not very airtight and each small room is separated only by a curtain, which also makes it convenient for Zi Lan to observe the entire situation.

There are two bedrooms in the house, each with a bed and very different items, and both show signs of life.

There were two copies of the dishes, quilts, handkerchiefs, pens and other daily necessities on the shelf, but some of the personal belongings seemed to be missing a few items.

In addition, there is a medical box on the shelf. Lan has seen this medical box several times when Xue Li changed his medicine. He knows that it should belong to the little nine-tailed fox, but there is an empty square space of similar size next to the medical box, as if there was a similar medical box here before, but it was taken away.

The shelves were filled with all kinds of herbs and medicines, some processed, some unprocessed, and some half-processed. Even though Zi Lan didn't recognize the types of these herbs, she could see that they were arranged properly and neatly.

The little nine-tailed fox is a medical genius.

From the situation in this house, it is not difficult to see that she originally lived with another person, and the other person was also a person who practiced medicine. From another personal item, it can be seen that this person should be a woman, and much older than Xueli.

There were many toys in the house that obviously belonged to Xueli, such as small balls, dolls, and old things that looked like they were used by children. Even the pestles and mortars were obviously smaller ones for children. The little nine-tailed fox was most likely raised in this fairyland, but the person who raised her did not seem to have any signs of her original form.

And now, it seems that the owner of the other house may have gone out temporarily with his medicine box.
