280 The Man In the Snow

Xu Qing touched Little Fire’s body, which was indeed warm. Xu Qing nodded in satisfaction and couldn’t help but think that other than having a little poison on its claws, this little fox was actually quite useful!

Little Fire stood on Xue’er’s shoulder proudly with a smug look.

Qiao Yanhui stared at the proud little fox and said thoughtfully, “Since its fur is so warm, let’s peel it off and use it to make little gloves for Xue’er.”

Little Fire immediately staggered and slid down from Xue’er’s shoulder. This human was so cruel. He actually wanted to skin it…

Xue’er knew that her father was joking, but her heart still ached for the little fox. She hurriedly comforted it, “Little Fire, don’t be afraid. Daddy is lying to you.”

Only then did Little Fire squeak happily.

The corners of Xu Qing’s mouth twitched. This fox was too unbelievable. The last time she saw such a human-like animal was that little white wolf. Thinking of it, Xu Qing missed that little white wolf. It had been a long time since she had seen the little white wolf.

“Alright, go play. Yuan’er, Ting’er, protect your sister.” Xu Qing smiled.

After the three children ran out to play happily, Xu Qing said, “This little fox Ao Jie gave us is very human-like.”

Qiao Yanhui nodded. “This is a spirit fox called the Fire Spirit Fox. It’s extremely difficult to catch. Ao Jie only caught it by chance. The reason why the Fire Spirit Fox is so intelligent is that its ancestors have been educated, so it’s becoming more human-like with each generation.”

Xu Qing’s eyes were filled with surprise. No wonder the little fox was so intelligent. However, she suddenly remembered that she had seen the Fire Spirit Fox in Bai Xian’s medicine book.

The book said that the Fire Spirit Fox’s entire body was a treasure. Its claws were poisonous, and even Xu Qing wasn’t confident that she could detox it. The antidote to this poison was the Fire Spirit Fox’s saliva! The blood of the Fire Spirit Fox had a very high medicinal value. It was said that it could revive people. The fur, flesh, and blood of the Fire Spirit Fox had all sorts of effects. When Xu Qing thought of this, she suddenly realized that be it her family members or the pet, they all had to be carefully protected. Otherwise…

“Mommy, it’s so beautiful here.” Xue’er’s short legs moved forward with difficulty, but she wasn’t unhappy at all. Her face was red as she turned around excitedly and called her mother.

“Since you like it so much, let’s play here for a while before continuing on our way.” Xu Qing smiled dotingly.

Yuan’er glanced at Xu Qing. Her mother was clearly the one who like the snow the most, but she pushed the accountability to Xue’er.

Under Yuan’er’s gaze, Xu Qing felt a little guilty and hurriedly went to look at the snow. She spread her hands out slightly as she enjoyed the feeling of nature. As she looked at the surrounding scenery, she sighed and couldn’t help but say, “Little Hui, how are your drawing skills?” It would be more meaningful if they drew such a beautiful scenery.

“What do you think?” Qiao Yanhui got someone to prepare the things and began to draw his wife and children.

Just as Xu Qing was about to freeze, Qiao Yanhui finally finished painting. Xu Qing made a mental note to never make such a request next time. However, when she saw Qiao Yanhui’s painting, she couldn’t help but feel mesmerized because she didn’t know that Qiao Yanhui’s painting skills were so impressive. His drawing was as realistic as a photo.

Xu Qing admired Qiao Yanhui’s painting excitedly. Thinking that it was about time, she shouted for the children to go back. Then, she stepped on the heavy snow as she walked back. However, after walking for a while, she accidentally kicked something and fell to the ground. When she fell to the ground, contrary to her expectations, her hands touched human flesh instead of the snow.

“Miss, what’s wrong?” Xun Fen also ran over nervously.

Xu Qing frowned slightly and looked at the snow beside her. She had been standing here for so long just now, but she actually didn’t notice a person lying there. Although his body was covered in snow, as long as she looked carefully, she could still see him clearly.

“There’s someone here!” Qiao Yanhui’s eyes were also filled with killing intent.

“He’s injured.” Xu Qing smelled the strong stench of blood. However, before she could brush away all the snow on his body, Qiao Jun arrived in the next second and said something in Qiao Yanhui’s ear.

Qiao Yanhui immediately said in a low voice, “Leave first.” Then, he looked coldly at the injured and unconscious man on the ground. Qiao Jun had just reported that the man on the ground was very likely being hunted down and was seriously injured, so he hid there. However, this wasn’t the main point. The main point was that this man would attract the killers to them. They didn’t even have the chance to admire the snow anymore! Because there were already killers heading here.
