Xue Li's tears kept falling down.
The more Xueli thought about it, the sadder she became. Her eyes turned red, her ears drooped, and her tail stopped wagging.
Zi Lan circled around her anxiously.
He had never expected the little fox to cry so sadly. His original intention was to give the little nine-tailed fox a surprise.
Zi Lan touched her tail gently, called "Awooo" to her tenderly, and carefully pushed the most beautiful radish in front of her for her to eat.
But no matter how much she coaxed him, it was of no use. Xueli's tears kept falling like a broken string. She cried even louder and was not as lively as usual.
Xue Li's appearance made Zi Lan, the whole wolf, panic. He had never felt so clumsy. Facing a crying girl, he had no idea what to do.
However, seeing the little nine-tailed fox so sad, Zi Lan finally realized that something was wrong.
The little fox didn't look happy at all.
Thinking about it carefully, the little nine-tailed fox had never said that she liked to eat radishes, and she had never eaten them in front of him. It seemed that the fact that the little nine-tailed fox liked to eat radishes was completely a blind guess on his part at the beginning, with very little evidence. The various contents that followed were his further inferences on this basis, and were even more difficult to confirm.
His judgment seemed to be too hasty.
At first, when he handed the radish to Xueli, she refused to eat it. But when he pushed the fruit to her, she ate it and seemed very happy.
Could it be that the little fox... doesn't like eating carrots
Zi Lan's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly became worried.
He suspected that he had done something bad with good intentions.
He became nervous, his claws unconsciously retracted, and his upright wolf ears drooped.
Zi Lan said frustratedly: "Don't you... like it?"
"Ouch?"
When Xue Li heard Xue Lang's voice suddenly drop, she looked up at him.
Through the misty water vapor, Xue Li saw the big snow wolf with its ears drooping, sitting dejectedly in front of her. Although the big snow wolf would not cry like her, it was obvious that it looked very lost.
There were still traces of dirt on the snow wolf's claws. The gray color of the dirt extended from the claws to the calves, and he also looked disheveled.
The snow wolf must have been busy in the forest for a long time for these radishes.
And Xueli could see that these radishes must have been carefully selected and it took a long time to find them.
When Xue Li saw his look, she immediately softened her heart.
She couldn't bear to let Snow Wolf down, so she lowered her head with difficulty and took a bite of the carrot that he thought she would eat.
The taste of raw radish quickly spreads in the mouth.
Xueli's eyes were filled with tears. She sobbed and hiccuped while saying, "It's delicious... Woohoo..."
Although Xueli tried hard to hold back her tears, she still cried very hard.
Zi Lan looked at the crying little nine-tailed fox and knew that she was really unhappy, so she hurriedly tried to comfort her.
Xue Li cried “Awoo!” “Awoo!”
In order to get closer to her, Zi Lan lay on the ground and cried "Awoo-" and "Awoo-" to coax her, but he didn't dare to stretch out his paw to touch the crying little fox. He was so anxious that he kept wagging his tail.
Zi Lan had no choice but to stand up, quickly dig a hole in the ground, and then bury a carrot in it on the spot.
“Woo woo woo…”
When Xueli saw him bury the radish back, her crying became a little quieter.
Seeing that this was working, Zi Lan quickly buried a few more radishes in front of her, and deliberately chose a location farther away from the wooden house.
After a while, the little fox finally got tired of crying and burped.
"Are you okay?"
Zi Lan asked with concern.
Even though Xueli stopped crying, she still looked very listless when she saw so many radishes. Moreover, she had just howled so much that her eyes were red and she was sobbing.
It was getting dark at this time, and neither of them had the energy to care about the remaining radishes on the ground, so they went back into the house together.
After returning to the wooden house, the little fox immediately jumped back into the room, jumped onto the bed, and curled up into a ball pitifully.
In fact, it was still a long time before the little fox's usual bedtime today, but she seemed to have no energy to jump around and didn't even eat dinner.
Zi Lan hid outside the room and looked at her worriedly.
There was no light in Xueli's room, and the light was dim and dim. One could only barely see a small white ball on the bed, with its face buried in its tail in grievance.
Zi Lan felt that it was his actions that made the little fox cry, and he was very anxious.
Soon, he saw that the little nine-tailed fox seemed to be tired and fell asleep. After thinking for a while, he quietly walked out of the house...
…
Xueli slept until 9 o'clock in the morning.
She didn't eat much last night, didn't do much of the homework her aunt gave her, and cried for a long time until her eyes were swollen. She felt very ashamed when she thought about it now, and she stayed in the quilt for a long time before she mustered up the courage to crawl out.
It was already bright outside the window.
Xue Li ran to the end of the bed and looked outside, only to find that the big snow wolf was not in the house and the yard was empty. Not only was there no one, but even the pile of radishes from last night was gone.
Xue Li was startled and was about to look around for someone, when she suddenly noticed that the door of the house was open. Outside the house, a wolf's head was cautiously poking out and looking into the house guiltily.
Sydney: “…”
The snow wolf was obviously very big, but it curled itself up into a ball and hid behind the wall of the wooden house, with only a little bit of its head, ears and a pair of uneasy wolf eyes showing. It could not be seen without careful observation.
The big snow wolf hid outside and watched her, as if it didn't dare to come in.
He saw Xueli wake up and look back, hesitated for a moment, then retracted his gaze and took out a basket, put it at the door, then retracted his gaze and took out another basket, put it at the door again.
After putting away the two baskets, the big snow wolf shrank back behind the door, leaving only a little bit of its ears and eyes exposed, observing her reaction helplessly.
One basket was filled with fresh and bright flowers, and the other was filled with the kind of green little fruits that Xueli loved to eat.
It was obvious that he came here to apologize.
Zi Lan felt very regretful after making Xue Li cry last night. In order to make her happy again, he stayed up all night and buried all the radishes he dug out.
Zi Lan had never faced a girl crying before, and didn't know what to do at this moment. He had to imitate the other wolf fairies he had seen in the Wolf Realm before, brought her flowers, and picked these green fruits again.
He remembered that this was the kind of fruit that Xue Li had eaten in front of him. At that time, Xue Li did not eat the radish he pushed back, but ate this small fruit. Zi Lan guessed that this kind of fruit might be what Xue Li really liked to eat, or at least she would not hate it.
After doing all these things, Zi Lan didn't dare to enter the house for a while, fearing that Xue Li no longer wanted to live with him, so he silently stood guard at the door, waiting for her to wake up.
Xue Li was stunned when she saw the two baskets Zi Lan brought.
She thought about it, jumped off the bed, and ran out dragging her nine tails.
When Zi Lan saw the little nine-tailed fox running towards him, his heart suddenly tensed with nervousness.
But the little nine-tailed fox was not angry. Instead, he looked quite guilty.
Xue Li actually felt guilty towards the Snow Wolf. After all, he couldn't be blamed for this. It was she who brought him radishes every day, which made the Snow Wolf think that this was food that she ate a lot, so he went out specially to help find food.
Xueli moved her little paws and said, "I'm sorry, I made you eat so many carrots and it took me so much effort."
She folded her ears guiltily, but then she came to her senses and hurriedly circled around the big snow wolf in worry.
The big snow wolf washed its paws clean today and came back without any mud on its body, so there was no sign of anything wrong.
But he had taken great pains to dig out so many radishes yesterday. He had to pick and dig out the radishes, walk so much, and even carry them back. Today, all the radishes are gone, and instead have been replaced by fresh flowers and fruits. You can imagine how much effort it took.
Especially these small green fruits, which grow on very tall trees. With such a big wound on the snow wolf's back, it should be impossible to pick them.
The big snow wolf still had injuries on its body, which made it hard for Xue Li not to worry.
Xueli jumped around him anxiously and said, "Don't move! Come into the house quickly, let me see if the wound on your body has opened!"
Zi Lan watched the little nine-tailed fox anxiously jumping and dancing around him and leading him into the house. Of course, he understood that the little fox was not angry with him, but Zi Lan was still a little embarrassed to enter the house.
He hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Xueli had already run into the house, he still took a step and walked in slowly.
Xue Li urged Zi Lan to lie down on the cushion as usual, and then she jumped up and down to untie the bandages on his wounds.
Xue Li's heart sank slightly.
The wound of the big snow wolf had indeed split open, and the blood had soaked through several layers of the wound cloth. Fortunately, Xueli had considered his size and used a lot of medicine. The wound cloth was wrapped very thickly, and the medicine had just been changed in the past two days, so it was not a big deal.
Xueli was sad that the Snow Wolf had opened his wound again for her, but she was also glad that the current situation was not difficult to deal with. She quickly took out new wound medicine and wound cloth and bandaged it skillfully.
Zi Lan was embarrassed when the little nine-tailed fox discovered that he had torn his wound again. He lay there obediently, not daring to move, and let Xue Li work.
Xue Li is very experienced in taking care of the big snow wolf and knows exactly where the injuries on his body are.
She checked every wound on Zi Lan's body, applied medicine and bandaged them, and even treated the wounds that were not particularly serious carefully again.
But as she was treating the patient, Xue Li suddenly paused and found something was wrong.
Snow Wolf's breath was weak, and his pulse was a little disordered. Although he was no different from a normal person most of the time, Xue Li took care of him and healed him all day long. She was also a medical genius with good medical skills, so she could naturally sense it.
In fact, this situation has happened before.
At first she thought that the Snow Wolf was seriously injured, so that was why he was like this, and she did not take it too seriously. But now his injuries should have recovered somewhat, but his pulse is still the same, sometimes confused, not as steady as that of ordinary people.
In addition, he seemed to be more afraid of cold than normal people. Even though he was covered with such thick fur, he would curl up tightly in his nest every night. In addition, his body was not very sensitive to several herbs, as if he had developed a tolerance and had become accustomed to them.
All these manifestations indicate that he was not in good health before he was seriously injured, and he may have had some medical history.
He must have been taking medication since he was young and has been receiving treatment, but judging from his current condition, he seems not to have recovered yet.
