These cognitions made Zi Lan's mind buzz.

The little nine-tailed fox might be a medical genius. Zi Lan had some idea of this from the way she changed the medicine and treated his wounds so skillfully, and could even properly handle such a serious wound.

You have to know that the wound on his back was caused by a dragon's scratch. In addition, he had injuries of various sizes all over his body. Even a medical immortal in the Wolf Realm would probably be overwhelmed and would have to discuss the matter for many days.

However, this little nine-tailed fox not only turned the tide and saved him, but his injuries also healed much faster than the optimistic scenario. This shows that the little fox has superb medical skills, perhaps even better than the medical immortal in the wolf realm.

The fact that the other owner of this house is out means that this fairyland is still connected to the outside world. As long as he can think of a way, he can return to the Ninth Heaven.

Zi Lan was shocked.

He was unable to move during this period of time due to his injuries, but he had been thinking about how to return to the Ninth Heaven.

Maybe it was because he was too weak and his spiritual energy was feeble, but he didn't feel any breath from the outside world in this fairyland. Zi Lan was anxious about what to do next. Now that he realized that he might be able to get out of this fairyland, he suddenly felt that he had found the direction.

However, even if he could leave this fairyland, he could not return to the Ninth Heaven on his own now. The most urgent task was to heal his injuries.

Thinking of this, Zi Lan felt a little relieved.

He walked to the simple "nest" that Xue Li had prepared for him in the big house, slowly lay down, and lay there to heal his wounds.

Although the nest was crude, it was unexpectedly comfortable and warm, and was surrounded by a herbal scent similar to that of the little fox.

Zi Lan had not fully recovered yet. He was already a little tired after walking from the forest to the house today. He lay down and did not move again, falling into a light sleep.

Xue Li watched the snow wolf resting by the side, and felt relieved when she saw that he seemed satisfied with the nest she had built.

At this time, seeing that the snow wolf seemed to have fallen asleep, Xue Li ran over and grabbed the quilt, covering him tightly.

After all, it was afternoon, and Xue Li was actually a little sleepy. When she saw the fluffy fur of the snow wolf's uninjured parts, she vaguely felt that it was like a comfortable plush blanket that she could crawl into and sleep in.

Xueli yawned, squinted her eyes, and quickly shook her fur hard to wake herself up.

Then she ran to the table, transformed into a human form, took out the mortar and pestle, and conscientiously began to complete the routine homework assigned to her by her aunt.

The sky darkened unknowingly.

Xue Li was so focused that she didn't even notice that Yin Yue had risen high into the sky. Bai Lu, who wanted to play with her but was worried that she would be in the same room with Snow Wolf, had quietly come to the door to check on her twice.

The grass is pounded into mud, water and dew melt into spirit, and the magic grass gradually turns into magic medicine.

Her skills are refined and her movements are graceful. The process of preparing herbs and using magic is smooth and natural, and she completes it in one go.

By the time all the elixirs were made, the moon was already high in the sky.

Xue Li yawned, turned back into her fox form, and ran back to her room in a daze. She jumped onto the bed, crawled into Haruhi's thin quilt, rolled herself into a ball, and fell asleep comfortably.

Boom, boom.

Click.

At noon the next day, Xue Li was awakened by a strange noise in the house.

She emerged from the quilt in a daze, and when she opened her eyes, she saw a huge snow wolf with clean fur in her home.

“Ouch!”

Xue Li had just woken up, and had no idea why there was such a big beast in her house. She was so scared that she flew up immediately, and when she backed away, she rolled off the bed, rolled around twice with her tail wrapped around her, and finally woke up.

By the way, this is the big snow wolf that she has been treating recently. She brought him home from the forest yesterday, and they will live together for some time.

Xue Li was still confused and obviously not used to the current situation.

Hearing the sound, Zi Lan also looked towards her.

Zi Lan had no intention of waking her up, but he also had an injury on his leg and couldn't control his strength well, so he made noises when walking. Now that Xue Li woke up, he lowered his ears guiltily.

Zi Lan apologized awkwardly: "I... I'm sorry."

To Xue Li, this apology sounded like a wolf howl, and she thought it meant a greeting.

So Xueli said patiently: "I'm sorry, I forgot I brought you back. It's crowded in the room, right? Go outside to get some fresh air. I'm going to water the spiritual herbs first, and then I'll give you some radishes to eat."

With that, Xue Li ran over and opened the door.

She jumped out first, then signaled the snow wolf to come out with her.

Zi Lan had originally planned to come out and take a look by herself, so without hesitation, she immediately followed him out of the house.

The environment in the fairyland is quiet and beautiful, and the morning is even fresher and more comfortable. Xueli ran to the yard as usual, checked the growth of the spiritual herbs, and then watered them.

These were grown by her and her aunt, and are important ingredients for making elixirs.

This wonderland is very small, with few intelligent animals, and everything remains in a very old state.

At first, magical flowers and herbs grew wildly. Not only were they difficult to find, but they were also often out of stock at critical moments.

So Xue Li and her aunt took some effort to transplant all the spiritual herbs in the fairyland that were not too demanding on the growing environment to the yard, collected their seeds and roots, and planted them at designated locations.

Not all herbs are available in the fairyland. Later, every time my aunt went out, she would bring back some samples or seeds of magical herbs and plant them here to enrich the variety of medicinal materials. By now, the number of herbs accumulated has become quite considerable.

Xue Li carefully counted the number and growth of the herbs, then turned to the stream to wash up.

On the other side, after Zi Lan left the house, he thought about it and then walked into the kitchen.

Thanks to Xue Li's careful care for him during the past two days when he was seriously injured. She not only helped him heal his wounds, but also took the trouble to make various radishes for him to eat. Zi Lan always felt guilty, but didn't know how to express it.

Now that he was able to perform simple activities, he thought that he could not just sit there and wait for death, but should at least start to help a little, so he ran to the kitchen to see if there was anything he could do.

Zi Lan certainly didn't know how to cook. He had plenty of people to take care of him in the Wolf Territory, and he had suffered from a cold since his mother's womb. The Wolf King and the Wolf Queen loved him like a treasure and were afraid that he would catch a cold and fall. Therefore, although Zi Lan received strict instruction in cultivation, he had very little experience in cooking.

Fortunately, he found the radish cakes that Xueli had steamed a day earlier in the steamer.

He added some firewood to the stove to heat it up, then clumsily found the bowl, plates and chopsticks and put the radish cake on the plate.

Zi Lan did not maintain his original form in the wolf realm for as long as he did here. He was not as good as Xue Li at using the fox form to do all kinds of chores. What's more, he did not have enough ability to change back into human form, which made it very difficult for him.

He was afraid that if he picked it up with his mouth, Xueli might not want to eat it, so he found a wooden spoon and used it in his mouth to pick out the radish cakes bit by bit. It took him a long time to finally make two plates.

Zi Lan held the edge of the plate and carefully carried it out of the kitchen, wanting to put it in a conspicuous place so that Xue Li could eat it.

He picked up a plate, put it on the ground with the lightest movement, and turned around to get another one.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, he heard the sound of water beside him. He turned his head subconsciously and saw the little nine-tailed fox playing in the stream.

The snow-white little nine-tailed fox stood happily in the water, flapping its wings and jumping, rolling over from time to time to shake its fur. After shaking off the fur on its body, it jumped back to the shore and patiently and carefully combed its beautiful nine tails.

Zi Lan's face suddenly turned red and she immediately turned away shyly.

This, this is considered a girl dressing up, right

I guess it’s not a good idea for him to watch someone comb their tail without their consent, right

Snow Wolf was in a hurry and didn't dare to look at her. He went back to the kitchen with his head down and took another plate.

At this time, the little nine-tailed fox had also tidied its tail and was walking back in a good mood. But just as she walked back to the edge of the yard, she saw a plate of radish cakes placed neatly in the middle of the yard.

Xue Li suddenly showed a horrified expression.

Seeing Zi Lan carefully eating another plate of radish cakes in the kitchen, Xue Li of course understood Zi Lan's intention.

She couldn't bear to hurt the kindness of the snow wolf, but she also didn't want to eat the carrot cake.

Xue Li immediately picked up the plate and ran back to the cabin. She hid the radish cake in a clean box, put the plate away and sat down next to it.

So when Zi Lan came out with another plate of radish cakes, he saw that the plate in front of the little nine-tailed fox was empty, and the little nine-tailed fox was sitting obediently beside it, wagging its tail.

Xueli performed with real emotion: "Burp."
