Chapter 403 Discovering Chi Mei
"No."

Facing Zhuge Yun's teasing look, Xiao Xiao rejected it calmly.

"Really?"

Zhuge Yun expressed doubt.

Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes speechlessly and ignored the boring guy.

Seeing this, Zhuge Yun shrugged and said nothing more.

He is just a jerk.

Besides, when did Xiao Xiao go to see a girl without telling them?
This is not something shameful.

On the contrary, all the members of Dormitory 417, except Xiao Xiao, were deeply envious and jealous of Xiao Xiao's popularity with girls.

……

Xiao Xiao took a taxi to the place where Grandpa Li had taken him to fish before.

Zhang Bo and his friends had also been here when they lived in his house.

That time, Zhang Bo was almost suffocated to death by the Chi ghost here.

……

However, because the Chimei hurt Zhang Bo that time, he was so angry that he directly destroyed the three Chimeis.

I don’t know, are there any Chimei still here?
There shouldn’t be only those three from last time, right?

Xiao Xiao paid the fare, got out of the car and looked at the lush and deep forest on the side of the road.

……

At this time, the sky became a little brighter.

But there is no shadow of the sun.

Today is another cloudy day.

There was no warmth in the early morning air. The icy chill penetrated into the lungs, making people shiver violently while getting goose bumps all over their bodies.

……

Xiao Xiao walked down the slope and into the forest which seemed even more desolate and eerie in the cold wind.

Some of the trees have lost all their leaves, revealing mottled and rough trunks that stretch towards the sky with their fangs and claws bared.

However, most of the trees are evergreen all the year round. Even in the cold winter, the criss-crossing branches are still covered with layers of green leaves.

The overly deep green reveals a sense of gloom.

……

Xiao Xiao walked and stopped, like a tourist who came here for sightseeing.

Feifei jumped from Xiao Xiao's shoulder to a tree nearby, leaping nimbly among the branches, looking for the scent of his own kind.

……

Taotie, however, looked a little listless, as it did not like eating Chimei.

That monster taste is not good at all.

Uncle Taotie expressed his disgust.

……

Taotie was lying on top of Xiao Xiao's head, looking around aimlessly.

The eyes under his armpits were half-open and half-closed, with a perfunctory look.

……

Feeling that a certain monster was slacking off, Xiao Xiao bent his knuckles unceremoniously. Even though he couldn't see the top of its head, he hit the forehead of a certain Taotie accurately, making a crisp yet somewhat dull sound.

"Boom~"

"Ow~"

Taotie was furious and tilted his head to bite Xiao Xiao's fingers.

However, Xiao Xiao hit Taotie's head again with lightning speed.

Taotie's face turned blue.

How dare humans knock on the head of the ancient monster - Taotie!

Tired of living, huh?!

A low sound like muffled thunder came from Taotie's throat, and a dangerous aura spread.

……

Taotie gnashed his teeth, and black flames were faintly visible in his eyes.

However, the sudden discovery of his body hanging in the air made the "cool and domineering" Taotie a little flustered.

what happened?

Taotie struggled subconsciously.

Soon, Taotie came face to face with a familiar face.

It’s Xiao Xiao.

Taotie:.
After a moment of silence, "Awoo~Awoo~"

What are you doing, you reckless human?!

Let me go!
……

Xiao Xiao raised the Taotie to the level of his eyes, his eyebrows slightly curved, "Little Taotie."

Taotie's body stiffened, and his eyes under his armpits looked at Xiao Xiao vigilantly. Two words were clearly written on his face: What?

"Did you ever hear a word?"

Taotie didn't say anything, but a trace of confusion appeared in his eyes. One word? What words?

"The more you work, the more you get; the less you work, the less you get; and no work, no gain."

Xiao Xiao spoke in a gentle tone, "Do you need me to explain the meaning of this sentence to you?"

"Ow~"

Taotie looked disdainful. How could it not understand such a sentence?

Xiao Xiao didn't care, with a hint of smile in his eyes, "I understand."

……

Taotie looked at Xiao Xiao's eyes, which had been staring at it, with an impatient and puzzled look.

He glared at Xiao Xiao without giving in.

But the vigilance in his eyes became more intense.

Finally, Taotie couldn't help but groan, "Awoo~", and his eyes couldn't help but drift to the side.

Xiao Xiao then slowly spoke, "Little Taotie, why don't you go find Chimei?"

"Nothing good comes from being lazy or passive."

"Of course, it would be great if we could find other monsters."

……

"Otherwise, maybe when I'm in a bad mood, I won't be willing to let a monster that has done nothing to contribute eat for free."

"Understand?"

……

"Ow~"

Taotie's face changed from purple to blue, and then from blue to purple. After a dazzling series of blue and purple changes, Taotie had no choice but to comfort himself that the monster was under the eaves and had to bow his head.

Under Xiao Xiao's gentle and smiling gaze from beginning to end, Taotie could only hang his head, looking as if he understood.

……

"very good."

Xiao Xiao nodded with satisfaction.

He released his hand that was holding Taotie by the scruff of the neck.

Taotie twisted his body and nimbly jumped onto a tree on the side.

……

Feifei and Taotie shuttled back and forth between the trees on both sides.

Xiao Xiao was searching below.

If there really was a monster here, Xiao Xiao believed that it would not escape their thorough search.

……

Because of the intertwined branches and leaves overhead, the light in the forest is inevitably dimmer than outside.

This place is remote and sparsely populated, so naturally no one cleans up the yellow fallen leaves, so they are all over the ground, forming a thick layer.

Xiao Xiao walked in the middle, and his feet made crisp "click~click~" sounds.

It spread among the silent woods, adding a sense of tranquility.

……

"Coffee~"

Feifei suddenly ran back quickly, his snow-white fluffy hair drawing a graceful arc and emitting a silver satin-like luster.

"found it?"

Xiao Xiao couldn't believe it, so fast? !
"Coffee~"

Feifei stopped on a branch close to Xiao Xiao and nodded his head vigorously, causing the branches and leaves to tremble slightly and make a rustling sound.

……

"lead the way."

After a moment of surprise, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but curl his lips slightly. He showed a little smile, but he didn't delay and hurriedly asked Feifei to lead the way.

It would be bad if the other party ran away.

……

The place where Feifei discovered the monster was not far away. Xiao Xiao just followed Feifei for about five minutes, and then he smelled a familiar smell - demonic aura.

At this point, Xiao Xiao no longer needed Feifei to lead the way.

He followed the smell of evil in the air, turned left and walked a few steps. When he looked up, he saw a Chimei on a big tree a few steps away.

……

There are three Chimeis either "standing" or "sitting" over there.

The number of Chimei is the same as the last time we encountered.

Do all Chimei like to work in units of three?
Xiao Xiao couldn't help but smile, feeling somewhat amused.
