When it was time to go to bed, Yuan Wen crawled into Bihua Lingjun's bed as usual, curled up into a ball, and snored softly. Bihua Lingjun was restless and couldn't sleep. He was thinking about which fairy friend he should entrust it to. WWw. QUaNbEn-xIAoShUO. COm
On the second day, Bihua Lingjun carefully held the tiger cub in her arms and went to Beitianmen to find Marshal Wude first.
Marshal Wude was a fierce general in the heavens. He had a red face and blue beard, was sturdy and strong, and had conquered countless demons and monsters and had made great achievements in battle. Several of his capable generals were once the treasures of the Bihua Lingjun's mansion, and his mount, the black unicorn, was also raised by Bihua Lingjun for a while. Bihua Lingjun thought that if Yuan Wen could follow Marshal Wude, he might become a fierce tiger in the heavens, and he could be considered to have a bright future.
Marshal Wude had recently been on duty guarding the North Heavenly Gate. When he heard Bihua Lingjun explain his intention, he immediately agreed and said generously, "I have always asked you to take care of me in the Heavenly Palace. It's just a tiger cub, which is a small matter! Don't worry, I will definitely raise it well-nourished and sleek. The little demons and monsters will go weak when they see it!"
Bihua Lingjun held Yuan Wen in his arms and said with a smile, "From now on, I'll have to trouble Brother Wude." Just as he was about to hand the tiger cub to him, Yuan Wen half raised his eyelids in his arms, glanced at Marshal Wude indifferently, turned his head away, and snorted as if with disdain.
Marshal Wude was smiling and reaching out to take it, but his smile and hand were frozen in mid-air.
When Bihua Lingjun was about to send it to Marshal Wude, Yuan Wen bit Bihua Lingjun's sleeve and refused to let go, holding on to Bihua Lingjun's arm tightly with his two front paws.
Marshal Wude said, "Lord Ling, this tiger cub seems to look down on me. I heard that when it was still an egg, the Jade Emperor wanted to raise it himself. I don't think a little god like you can take care of it. You might as well go find other immortals and lords to try."
Bihua Lingjun apologized to Marshal Wude for a long time, but fortunately Marshal Wude was a military commander and didn't care much. Bihua Lingjun took the tiger cub and went to find Tota Heavenly King. This time, Bihua Lingjun learned to be cautious, fearing that something else would happen. He didn't tell Tota Heavenly King the purpose of his visit in advance, and only exchanged a few pleasantries. Then he said to Tota Heavenly King: "By the way, Heavenly King, last time in Lingxiao Palace, you asked me what the tiger cub hatched from the Ruyi egg looked like. I think you are busy with your affairs and may not have time to come to my house to see it, so I brought it to you today."
As he spoke, he held up Yuan Ling and showed it to the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King.
The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King immediately said happily: "I was wondering why you had such a yellow-haired little tiger in your arms. It turned out to be the one that was hatched from the Ruyi Egg. Let me take a look." Stroking his beard and leaning closer to his face, Bihua Lingjun carefully looked at Yuan Wen in his hand. He saw that it half-drooped its eyelids and glanced at the Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King indifferently, and turned its head away again with disdain. The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King wanted to touch its head, but Yuan Wen turned his head away. Bihua Lingjun hurriedly smiled and said: "I have never brought it out. It is very shy, haha."
After leaving Li Tianwang's residence with Yuan Wen in her arms, Bihua Lingjun went around to look for several generals and kings. Yuan Wen half-opened his eyes to look at the first few, but in the end he didn't even look at them. Bihua Lingjun ran out of exhaustion, and when he came out from somewhere, he happened to meet Donghua Emperor who had just finished playing chess with Yue Lao and was about to return home. Donghua Emperor took one look and immediately said, "Brother Bihua, you are carrying your beloved child around everywhere, haven't you decided who to entrust it to?"
Bihua Lingjun pulled Donghua Emperor to a secluded place and whispered, "Don't mention it. I ran myself to pieces today and almost offended many immortal friends..." He told the story of what happened before. Donghua Emperor listened solemnly, twisted his beard at the end, and said to the tiger cub in Bihua Lingjun's arms, "I am Donghua Emperor. Although I am not a military commander, it is not difficult for me to teach you some magic to subdue demons. Would you like to stay in my temple for a few days?"
The little tiger had seen Emperor Donghua many times. He looked up at him dejectedly and put his head back on the arm of Lord Bihua.
Bihua Lingjun sighed, "Donghua, you saw it, it was always like this just now, and it was very polite to you. It was having a great time with the spirit beasts in the yard, why is it always like this today?"
Emperor Donghua said, "According to my guess, there are two possible reasons. One is that it knows you are going to send it away and can't bear to leave you. The other is... you are also a civil servant. It has been raised by you for a long time and may not be interested in subduing demons and fighting as a general. Why don't you try two civil servants? If it behaves like this after seeing a civil servant, it means it doesn't want to be sent away by you."
Bihua Lingjun said: "In fact, I also considered it carefully before I thought of asking a fellow warrior immortal."
The first thing Bihua Lingjun considered was the immortal friends in the heaven who were his best friends, but after thinking about it, he found that none of them were suitable, so he turned his attention to the generals. Imagine that if Yuan Ling was entrusted to Yue Lao, he might become a tiger that pulls the red string of love; if he was entrusted to Taishang Laojun, he might become a tiger that refines elixirs all day long; if he was entrusted to Yuanshi Tianzun, he would probably become a tiger that meditates all day long; if he was entrusted to Donghua Emperor, he would be a tiger that plays chess all day long...
Compared to the above... it is more appropriate to become a warrior tiger who subdues demons and monsters...
Emperor Donghua said, "Let's give it a try first. It's just a few days of raising it. If it really learns something wrong, you can take it back immediately. If you hesitate, you won't be able to do it. Come on, I thought of an immortal friend. You can take it and give it a try. Then you can see which of my speculations is true."
Bihua Lingjun and Donghua Emperor flew forward on the clouds, circling around the Heavenly Palace. They saw a corner of the roof in the distance. Bihua Lingjun hesitated in front of the door on the corner of the roof, but still went in.
The pavilion on the corner roof is the Wensi Palace. Lu Jing, the Heavenly Lord of Literature, is sitting in the palace, reviewing official documents. After hearing the fairy messenger announce the visit of the two Lords, Lu Jing put down his red brush and straightened his clothes to greet them. Bihua Lingjun greeted him, "Lu Xian, you are welcome. I was just feeling depressed and walked around. I accidentally came here and came in to pay a visit. Ah, this tiger cub is the spirit tiger hatched from the wishful egg that the Jade Emperor entrusted to me. Lu Xian, do you think it is growing well?"
Yuan Wen propped up his eyelids in Bihua Lingjun's arms and looked at Lu Jing, but did not turn his head. He opened his eyes and looked Lu Jing up and down.
Lu Jing was originally the head of Wensi Palace. He was promoted to Zhangwen Tianjun because Hengwen Qingjun, the head of Wensi Palace, was demoted. Lu Jing has a handsome and gentle appearance, but he has always been too cautious, so he looks a little rigid.
Lu Jing looked at the little tiger and smiled, "It's really cute." His voice was also meticulous.
Yuan Wen leaned forward in Bihua Lingjun's arms, as if thinking about it, and then rested his head on Bihua Lingjun's arm.
Bihua Lingjun said quickly: "Lu Xian is busy with official business, so it is inconvenient to disturb him. This lord and Emperor Donghua will take their leave first."
Lu Jing bowed and respectfully escorted the two immortals to the door.
After leaving the Wensi Palace, Emperor Donghua said, "I guess what I said was right. Look, it seems to be somewhat interested in Lu Jing. You, the spirit tiger, are good at literature but not martial arts."
Bihua Lingjun thought, fortunately it was not very interested in Lu Jing. If it was handed over to Lu Jing, it would become a literary tiger, which would be quite worrying.
Emperor Donghua said, "Actually...Bihua... Judging from the situation of your spirit tiger, the most suitable person to raise it is..." At this point, a figure in a plain robe was vaguely seen not far away, walking towards them. Emperor Donghua and Bihua Lingjun hurried over. Emperor Donghua bowed, and Bihua Lingjun, holding the young tiger in his arms, could only smile apologetically, and then said, "Tianshu Xingjun, I haven't seen you for a long time. How have you been?"
Yuan Lun in Bihua's arms immediately raised his head and leaned forward, looking at Tianshu Xingjun, and gurgled in his throat.
Donghua exchanged a few pleasantries with Bihua and Tianshu Xingjun, and asked where they were going. Tianshu said, "I will be cultivating the way of immortality these days, and I will not be able to leave Beidou Palace for a hundred years. I have one or two matters to deal with, so I will go to visit Laojun." Looking at Bihua Lingjun's arms, he smiled and said, "This little tiger is so cute, is it raised by Lingjun?"
Bihua Lingjun said, "It is the spirit tiger that was hatched from the wish-fulfilling egg that the Jade Emperor gave to raise. I am bringing it out for a walk today."
Yuan Kun half struggled out of Bihua Lingjun's arms and reached out to Tianshu Xingjun. His watery eyes were wide open, staring at Tianshu without blinking. Tianshu couldn't help but reach out and touch his head. Yuan Kun tilted his neck back and licked Tianshu's hand.
Bihua Lingjun coughed, calmly pressed Yuan Wen into his arms, and said to Tianshu with a smile: "It's a pity that Xingjun has important things to do, otherwise I would invite you to my house for a cup of new tea. It seems that I have to wait until you have practiced in seclusion before inviting you again."
Tianshu smiled slightly and said, "Thank you, Lingjun. I will definitely visit you in the future. I have something else to do now, so I'll take my leave now." After saying goodbye, he left. Yuan Lun leaned over from Bihua Lingjun's arms and looked at Tianshu's back eagerly.
Bihua Lingjun looked at it with a mixture of worry and joy. Donghua reached out and patted Bihua Lingjun on the shoulder: "Brother Bihua, your young tiger seems to like Tianshu and the like."
Bihua Lingjun's eyebrows twitched, and Emperor Donghua sighed, "Bihua, I just wanted to tell you that from the description of your spirit tiger, it is most appropriate for you to entrust it to the one I mentioned to raise it."
Bihua Lingjun said with a worried look on his face, "I know, that's why I was worried. It's a pity that Tianshu has to practice in seclusion, otherwise it would be very suitable to entrust it to him. Looking at Yuan Wen's situation, he likes the literary aura of Lu Jing and the light fairy aura of Tianshu. In the heaven, the only one with literary aura and impeccable fairy character and quality is Hengwen Qingjun."
Yuan Wen lay in Bihua Lingjun's arms with his eyes closed, but the tips of his ears moved slightly.
"It's just..." Bihua Lingjun looked somewhat helpless and disappointed, "Hengwen was kidnapped by Song Yao, and is now a homosexual on an isolated island. If I entrust Yuan Wen to him, what will happen if Yuan Wen also becomes homosexual?"

Emperor Donghua said, "Bihua, you worry too much. This tiger cub is only a little bit old. What can it understand? It's only for a month. No matter how hard these two try, they won't die in front of your cub."
Bihua Lingjun thought for a moment and said, "That's true."
Emperor Donghua sighed, "Alas, he is just a homosexual. Now he lives on a deserted island. It is really sad that even a good friend like you has left them."
Bihua Lingjun's conscience immediately felt reproached, and he stroked Yuan Wen's fur and said, "Then let's entrust it to Hengwen."
Bihua Lingjun originally planned to leave immediately, but in the end she couldn't bear to do so, so she carried Yuan Lun back to her mansion, put him in bed and let him sleep for another night. Only then did she ride on a gust of breeze and arrive at an island in the far east.
Bihua Lingjun held Yuan Ling in one hand and knocked on the door with the other hand. After a while, the door opened. Song Yu was standing inside the door. He saw Bihua Lingjun and smiled, "It's Brother Bihua! Long time no see. I heard that you have given birth and are recuperating in the mansion. How can you go out now? Quickly calculate whether you have finished the confinement period. I heard that this kind of thing is very particular. It will be bad if you catch a cold."
Bihua Lingjun's face trembled twice, and then he said seriously: "Brother Song, I happened to meet Tianshu Xingjun in the Heavenly Palace a few days ago. Do you want me to tell you and Hengwen about his recent situation?"
When Song Yao heard the word "Tianshu", his expression changed, and he immediately smiled and said, "Haha, Brother Bihua, it's been a long time since we last met. I couldn't help but joke with you just now. Don't take it to heart, haha. What's the matter with you today?"
His eyes noticed the yellow mass in Bihua's arms, "What's that in your arms?"
Bihua Lingjun carefully lifted Yuan Yun out of his arms. The little tiger had just slept with its head buried in his arms, and it still looked like it hadn't woken up yet. It twisted its body and continued to rest its head on Bihua Lingjun's chest. Bihua Lingjun stroked its fur, and Song Yu leaned forward to take a closer look: "Is this yellow one a cat?"
Bihua Lingjun said solemnly: "It's a tiger."
Song Yao suddenly realized, "I heard that you hatched a tiger from that egg. Could it be this?"
Bihua Lingjun said with a smug look on his face: "That's right. Actually, I came here today because I have something to entrust to you and Hengwen."
Bihua Lingjun followed Song Yu into the inner courtyard and saw Hengwen Qingjun standing in front of the hall door to greet them. Song Yu strode over and said, "Hengwen, Brother Bihua brought the tiger cub he hatched with him."
Heng Wenqing Jun immediately said happily: "Really? Brother Bihua hatched the tiger cub himself, we must take a good look at it."
Bihua Lingjun followed Song Yu to the open hall. The little tiger pretending to sleep in his arms opened his left eyelid a little, looked in the direction of Hengwen Qingjun, and then closed it again.
Bihua Lingjun held Yuan Wen in his palm. Yuan Wen yawned, squinted his sleepy eyes in the breeze, and moved slightly.
Bihua Lingjun smiled like a peach blossom, holding Yuan Wen and raised him in the direction of Song and Heng, saying, "Brother Song, Brother Hengwen, do you think he is cute?"
Song Yu and Heng Wen looked at the tiger cub from all sides, then reached out to touch its fur, and said affirmatively that it was indeed very cute, very cute.
Bihua Lingjun was very happy.
After entering the open hall and sitting down, after drinking a cup of tea, Bihua Lingjun stroked Yuan Wen who was sleeping soundly on his knees, and said clearly, "Brother Song, Brother Hengwen, I came here today to ask you for something. I have some immortal affairs to attend to, can you let Yuan Wen stay in your house for a few days?"
Heng Wenqing Jun immediately said: "Brother Bihua, you are too polite. It is just a trivial matter. Besides, this tiger cub is so cute. Brother Bihua, please feel free to leave it here."
Bihua Lingjun was very happy, but Song Yu looked at Hengwen, then at the little tiger on Bihua Lingjun's knee, and his expression was a little hesitant.
Bihua Lingjun was worried about Song Yu's hesitation. Many years ago, when Song Yu and Heng Wenqingjun went to the lower world for a fairy business, a fearless male fox fell in love with Heng Wenqingjun, which made Song Yu jealous. Now the fox has completed his merits and cultivated into a fairy body. He guards a mountain range in the lower world. It is said that he occasionally visits Heng Wenqingjun on this island. Whenever Song Yu mentions this fox, he is very jealous. If he is wary of male and female furry spirit beasts because of the fox...
Bihua Lingjun was worried, but Song Yu said, "Brother Bihua, you know I have never raised a spirit beast. Are there any particular rules for raising this Ruyi tiger cub? Please explain everything to me first, such as whether it eats meat or vegetables, when to bathe, and how many times a day to comb its fur. It would be best if you write it down for me. I have always been rough, so don't let your heart become damaged."
This made Bihua Lingjun feel that he had just judged others by his own standards, and he felt ashamed. He said, "Brother Song, don't worry, there is nothing to worry about. It is very well behaved and easy to raise. It only drinks water and doesn't eat anything else. Just give it a bath once a day and comb its hair after the bath. It is in my house, and usually just takes a nap and walks around the yard. It doesn't run around or cling to people." He lowered his head and glanced lovingly at Yuan Ling on his knees, "I have raised so many spirit beasts, and this one is the best behaved one."
Song Yao smiled and said, "Brother Bihua, look at the look in its eyes, it's like it's looking at its son. Haha, don't worry, your son is my nephew, I will take good care of him!"
Bihua Lingjun continued to talk for a long time, recounting the little things that happened to Yuan Ling after he was hatched. After he finished drinking a pot of tea, he finally came to an end. He then picked Yuan Ling up from his knees and reluctantly brought him to Song Yu and Heng Wen.
Song Yu reached out to take it. Yuan Wen raised his head from Bihua Lingjun's arms, looked at Heng Wen Qingjun with watery eyes, and cooed twice in his chest. Heng Wen laughed and said, "Ah, it can act like a spoiled child." But he just reached out and patted Yuan Wen's head. Song Yu took it from Bihua Lingjun and held it in his arms: "Brother Bihua, don't worry. If it loses half a pound of meat in a month, just come to me."
Bihua Lingjun said solemnly: "I'm counting on you two." He then naggled for a while about Yuan Lun's usual life, stroked the little tiger again and again, and then said goodbye and left.
After Bihua Lingjun's celestial aura disappeared, Song Yu sighed with melancholy and said to Heng Wenqingjun, "Don't you think Bihua is very sad, because this tiger has driven him crazy? He has never said as much as he did today about this tiger in the ten times he met me before." He lifted Yuan Xun's head by the hair on the back of his neck, looked at it carefully and said, "It's just a yellow-haired tiger, and its spiritual energy... looks normal to me. Is it because it was hatched from a Ruyi egg and he hatched it that it feels unusual?"
The little tiger held up his eyelids and looked at Song Yu with dull interest, then turned around in Song Yu's arms and looked at Heng Wen with his watery eyes wide open.
Heng Wenqingjun smiled and said, "But it is indeed cute. Bihua just said that it is easy to take care of. So I will take good care of it for a month."
