Chapter 2036: A Little Puppy in the Rain
In the rain, a little dog stumbled and dashed towards Little Taotie, its short legs striving hard to run, its body already soaked by the rain. Its round, watery dog eyes and small nose wiggled.
"Is it a Fox Dog?" Little Taotie blinked, squatted down, and successfully intercepted the running little puppy.
The little puppy was pure white, without a single stray hair.
"Woof!" The little puppy barked.
The sound was a little childish, the puppy voice ending with a cute "whine whine whine."
Little Taotie was amused and didn’t mind the little puppy being wet from the rain, directly holding it in her arms.
Hua Jinyan squinted his eyes, his pupils deep as an ancient well.
The little puppy shrank its neck, seemingly intimidated by Hua Jinyan’s gaze.
Little Taotie patted the little puppy’s back, gently stroked its head, and said softly, "Don’t be afraid, Huahua is just a bit serious and looks a little old-fashioned, but he is very gentle and kind."
Serious? Old-fashioned? Hua Jinyan pressed his lips and lowered his eyelids.
Little Taotie sneaked a glance at Hua Jinyan’s eyes, her gaze playful, the corner of her mouth curving upwards into a shallow little dimple.
The little puppy nestled in Little Taotie’s arms let out a "Woof," looking extremely innocent and pitiful.
Now, although it was a dog, it didn’t want to eat dog food!
Due to multiple soul possessions, Bai Shuang’s spiritual body was quite fragile. After possessing this little puppy, she temporarily couldn’t speak, nor could she reveal her identity.
Hua Jinyan frowned, his gaze deepened.
Little Taotie lowered her head to meet the little puppy’s eyes, discovering that the puppy’s gaze was a bit strange, like it had a lot to say but couldn’t seem to bring it out.
"There’s something wrong with it." Hua Jinyan spoke.
Little Taotie blinked, stroked the dog head, "What’s wrong with it?"
"Look at its soul body."
Little Taotie was confused, "How do I look?"
Hua Jinyan: "...Master taught you."
Little Taotie was aggrieved, "Didn’t learn it."
Hua Jinyan: "...I’ll teach you again."
Little Taotie: "It’s a bit difficult, seems like once is not enough."
After Hua Jinyan diligently taught her three times, Little Taotie finally learned to use "mind-eye" to see souls.
Her bright and resplendent eyes seemed like a whirlpool gradually enlarged, with countless specks of light illuminating from the bottom, as if countless stars were stirred up, swirling around.
The little puppy in front of her changed, at the center of its brow was a tiny person, very small, like Thumbelina.
"Thumbelina" was in a semi-transparent state, appearing very weak, sitting cross-legged at the puppy’s brow sea of consciousness.
Little Taotie felt a vague sense of familiarity, got closer to observe carefully, and finally recognized it as Bai Shuang she had seen in dreams.
At this moment, the petite "Thumbelina" was dressed in a white gown, an ancient costume beauty, delicate and frail, pitifully sick.
"White Fox?" Little Taotie queried.
A flash of white light, the ancient costume beauty in the white gown instantaneously transformed into an entirely snow-white fox. The fox lay on the puppy’s brow, ears drooping, its big tail wrapped around itself, looking extremely pitiful.
It’s mainly the white fox’s eyes that were too sorrowful, watered, as if about to cry at any moment.
"Aren’t you being a princess in Country R? Why did you turn into a little puppy and run here?"
"Woof-woof—whine-whine—" The little puppy made a tremendously aggrieved sound, eliciting sympathy.
Little Taotie furrowed her little brows, feeling very embarrassed, "Can you only bark?"
The white fox cried, rolling on the puppy’s brow, burying its whole body in its tail.
Little Taotie paused, "Your tail is so fluffy! But in the dream, weren’t your tails all cut off?"
The white fox sighed, the little puppy "woofed," seemingly explaining.
Little Taotie tilted her head, "I can’t understand."
