"Wait a minute... what do you mean the foxes joined in? Wasn't it the wolves having a party there?""For foxes to join, does that conform to the rites?"
In Ah Qing's arms, Ansheng heard this and slowly made a questioning expression, completely dumbfounded.
After listening to Ah Qing's recount and the complaints from Tang You over the phone.
Ansheng roughly understood the situation. Basically, after Tang You returned to his hometown, a pack of wolves arrived at his house and shamelessly stayed there.
Every day, either rummaging the fridge, fiercely giving birth on the living room table, or teaming up to overturn the cows and sheep at Tang You's house, and taking a couple of fresh milk beers.
Of course.
Ansheng understood these matters Tang You spoke of, but foxes mixing in at Silver Pass... can this make sense?
Although they're all from the canine family, one is classified as vulpine and the other as canine, and they even differ in size. How did they get involved together?
"I didn't know! I hadn't even asked when you jumped into my arms..."
Ah Qing scratched his head, indicating he was unaware. He was just about to ask Tang You, but the little fox happened to come back and greet him, leaving no time to inquire.
"...Didn't consult."
Ansheng had a peculiar expression, turning in Ah Qing's arms to look at the phone screen.
"No need for consultation, just help me get them to leave..."
Sitting in front of the villa's gate, Tang You glanced inside at the husky-like grassland wolves with a face full of black lines, saying:
"Since the last time you all came, foxes have been regularly coming to my house begging for food, claiming it's some kind of pilgrimage..."
"Then, recently on the grassland, a pack of grassland wolves escaping hunger from the Outer lands came along. Those Tibetan foxes saw the wolves shaking in hunger and invited them to my house..."
Tang You, while speaking, turned the camera to show the grassland wolves inside.
"Woof woof woof—"
The grassland wolf, when noticed by Tang You, suddenly became all smiles and barked happily, wagging its big tail.
As the camera turned again, you could see in the villa's courtyard corner, there were three wolves, one big wolf stepping on the flower bed with a serious face, staring at the other two grassland wolves digging at the wall.
"Woof! Woof woof..."
Be serious, you two, make this passage to the outside world look good.
We're here to freeload; we should be polite. Coming to ring the doorbell every day is bothersome. Just make this dog hole look good and we won't need the Tang Family to open the door for us.
The big wolf solemnly scolded the little wolves.
"Look at them! I'm completely numb..." Tang You said, utterly speechless, "I contacted the Security Bureau last night, and my brother took the call. He came to see, saying: Grassland wolves haven't reached the level of Spirit Beasts; the Security Bureau can't handle it."
"Then I called the Forest Bureau, they sent a Forest Ranger to inspect, and they said that these wolves have intelligence, they're a Level II protected animal, and the Forest Bureau can't really deal with it either."
"Damn it, it's like there's a bug stuck on my family card..."
The grassland wolves aren't considered Spirit Beasts, nor are they wild animals, stuck in a middle space, not directly governed by the Security Bureau, and grabbing them by the Forest Bureau doesn't make sense either...
Because these grassland wolves are very smart—take them back to the rescue station, and they might hold a grudge.
In the future, once they're established, they might visit the rescue station daily, pooping on the couch.
"I talked to them about the wolf nature."
"They told me, once they figured it out, they're just dogs..."
"They've even gotten chummy with the Tibetan mastiffs at the village entrance, leading the village sheepdogs to go clubbing together. As long as they get enough to eat, why bother being a wolf king when being a dog gets you a cheese burger?"
Tang You scolded the grassland wolves over a video call, and the big wolf acting as supervisor seemed to hear someone calling it, quickly scuttling up to Tang You and lying down.
"Woof..."
The grassland wolf stuck out its big tongue, rolled over, revealing its snow-white belly, displaying a look of flattery.
"Splash!"
Tang You rolled his eyes, smacking the grassland wolf's snout, which yelped and rubbed its head against Tang You's leg, acting like a lapdog.
"Even when the wolves arrive, they can't resist the wolf culture." Looking at the opposite video screen of Tang You's house, Ansheng showed a peculiar expression to Ah Qing, saying:
"Look, the grassland wolves there have mastered Doggy's voice package on their own, they even know how to show their belly and shake hands."
"Uh..." Ah Qing appeared blank, seeing this sort of outrageous scene for the first time.
The Tibetan foxes saw the grassland wolves were shaking with hunger and invited them over to Tang You's place to freeload, making some friends along the way.
After a few burgers by Tang You, the grassland wolves essentially slayed their wild nature, joyfully proclaiming they were at home, even their expressions and accents changed...
"Youyou, tell me... does your village's sheepdogs still have any employment prospects?" Ah Qing asked with an odd expression.
To the sheep, the greatest danger on the grassland is the hungry wolf pack.
But now, the grassland wolves are having fried chicken one day and double-layer beef burgers the next, mixing it with processed foods to eat, do they still have the thought to ambush sheep's butts?
"The sheepdog's main job is shepherding. When those dogs encounter a wolf pack, if they're moral, they call on the owner to hurry up and run, otherwise they might egg the owner on to fight a PK..." Tang You shook his head.
"Alright then! I'll ask for you..." Ah Qing looked at the grassland wolf rolling around.
"Woof?" The grassland wolf, seeing Ah Qing looking, showed a puzzled expression, sticking out its tongue and politely licking the phone screen.
"Why did you all head to Youyou's house? Aren't wolves supposed to be free?" Ah Qing asked, looking at the grassland wolf.
"Awo?"
As Ah Qing's mouth opened and closed, various crayon drawings suddenly appeared in the grassland wolf's mind.
The first drawing was Ah Qing transformed into a crayon figure, pointing at Tang You's villa, looking at the grassland wolf.
The second drawing showed Tang You worriedly watching wolf-like huskies bounce on the sofa, with several wolves pulling at a curtain, infuriating crayon figure Tang You to explode into a mushroom cloud.
The third drawing showed after Tang You exploded, the wolf pack lost the villa, squatting on the street performing chest-crushing rocks, miserably earning a few bits of silver but couldn't afford burgers.
"Woof, woof woof woof—"
Seeing the images, the grassland wolf looked shocked, quickly hugging Tang You's thigh, asking her not to explode.
The troublesome younger brothers aren't deliberately doing damage at home; they're just nesting, considering it's mating season and they need a den for the wolf pups.
Sis, please stay calm, I'll go finish them off now.
That chest-crushing rock is too big; I'm afraid it won't hold...
"Ah Qing, what is it saying?" Tang You, face full of black lines, pushed aside the dog's head, asking Ah Qing.
Though she understands Beast Language too, grassland wolves aren't true Spirit Beasts, and their language logic is very messy.
"It said... the female wolves are about to give birth and want to temporarily use your house as a maternity center; the grassland hasn't yielded anything recently, outside they can't find anything to eat except sand." Ah Qing served as the mediator and translator, helping Tang You communicate with the grassland wolves.
"So they're about to give birth, I was wondering why these dogs were eyeing my fridge every day, treating it as a shrine for replenishing supplies." Tang You looked at the grassland wolf, saying:
"So in essence, you guys just want a windproof den and some food, right?"
"Woof..." The grassland wolf thought for a moment and replied with a "woof."
The den can be rough, but could we sample the multilayer handmade beef king burger you ordered last time?
Oh, and that tongue-blasting black water too.
