"There used to be less of these things, but in the last few years the environment has been better protected and a lot of wild animals have come out of the deep mountains."
"There is a chicken farm in our village that was harassed some time ago, a few chickens were lost every night, and I wonder what it is that eats these chickens?"
Hearing the village headman's words, Xu Haoran said naturally, "These days even if it's something running out of the mountains, it can't be a bear blind."
"Usually the ones who would steal chickens are either weasels or those wild dogs."
The village headman's face changed slightly when he heard about weasels.
"If it's a wild dog it's fine, but if it's a weasel, it's more trouble."
That was all the village headman said, and he didn't continue after that.
There were some things he obviously didn't want to say, and the general public wouldn't listen to them, let alone believe them, so he chose to shut up.
Li Hang had an indifferent face, to him, no matter what he encountered, he was able to solve it easily.
Moreover, this time when he brought Xu Muqing and Tifa with him, Li Hang himself had the idea of wanting Xu Muqing to experience more things.
Therefore, they did not stay in the village for one night and then go up the mountain the next day, as the village chief had thought.
Instead, Li Hang led a few people directly along the path at the back of the village and walked slowly towards the very tall mountain peak in front of them.
If you look at the map, this village happens to be right on the edge of the big, rolling mountain.
From the back of the village, all that the eye can see are verdant peaks.
The area is densely wooded, and as the environment is now better protected and no one goes into the mountains to cut down the trees anymore, not to mention the absence of hunters, the number of animals in the mountains has increased dramatically.
Not long after he had just left the village, Xu Haoran suddenly spotted something new and interesting.
He reached out and pointed to a bush in front of him on his right and suddenly said to Li Hang, "Brother-in-law, I just saw a white thing flash past, I wonder if it was a rabbit or a fox?"
Xu Haoran's words aroused Tifa's interest.
Tifa said curiously, "Are there still white foxes on your side of the mountain? Aren't white foxes supposed to live in the Arctic?"
"I have a white fox at home, and because the temperature is higher on our side, I have purposely built a crystal palace for it."
"It stays freezing cold there all year round, and we all have to wear down jackets when we go in."
Xu Haoran's mouth fell open slightly as he couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Tifa and said, "The world of you landed gentry, we can't understand it at all."
"But then again, we do have white foxes on our side."
"I saw a fellow traveler when I was doing a live horror broadcast some time ago, and he saw a white fox while he was camping in the mountains."
"It's just that unlike what you Westerners think, a white fox is not an ordinary animal in our area."
"White foxes, they usually turn into people."
"What are you talking about?" Xu Muqing reached out and slapped Xu Haoran directly on the back of his head.
Xu Haoran covered his head and said to Xu Muqing with a depressed look on his face, "Sister, what I said was the truth."
"But anyone with a little knowledge knows that white foxes that are the easiest to turn into people."
However, just as Xu Muqing was about to roll up her sleeves and punch Xu Haoran again, Li Hang spoke up from the side, "The one you saw was not a fox, nor was it a rabbit."
