Chapter 119 - Extra 2 – Bai Yuehu

Edited by Zaki

Lu Qingjiu’s mother was also born in March.

It was the peak of spring, everything was coming back to life, and even the air was filled with vitality. The first thing that came out of the old mansion was a woman’s moan of pain, followed by a baby’s wailing.

Bai Yuehu stood outside the door and waited quietly. The midwife who came to deliver the baby thought he was the father of the child. She walked out of the door happily, waved to Bai Yuehu and said: “Congratulations, Sir! She is a chubby baby! Come and take a look!”

Bai Yuehu hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but walked in and saw the little dumpling in the midwife’s arms. The newborn human baby was not cute at all; the whole face was red and wrinkled, just like a newborn monkey. Bai Yuehu frowned, stretched out a finger and gently poked the little dumpling’s cheek. Then he quickly took it back as if he was burned.

“Would you like to hold the baby?” The midwife was used to seeing fathers be at a loss, so she didn’t feel strange about Bai Yuehu’s reaction. She asked, but handed the little baby in her hand to Bai Yuehu without waiting for his reply. He was about to refuse, but he heard the midwife urging him, saying that the mother of the child had to be taken care of first, and asked Bai Yuehu to help hold the little dumpling first.

When Bai Yuehu heard this, he could only take the baby helplessly. At this moment, his whole body froze. He had never thought that human cubs could be so soft, as if they were like a puddle of water that could melt away at any time. He did not dare to use force at all, and was even afraid that if he moved, he would hurt this little thing.

Bai Yuehu’s eyes widened slightly, looking at the little dumpling who gradually became quiet, thinking, is this a human cub? This is the first time he has seen it…

After the midwife took care of Fang Ruhui, made the bed, and covered her with a quilt, Bai Yuehu carried the little dumpling to Fang Ruhui’s side and noticed the longing in Fang Ruhui’s eyes.

“This…this is your child.” Bai Yuehu handed the little doll to Fang Ruhui, who took it over, her eyes full of love as she said. “Thank you.”

“No need.” Bai Yuehu took a step back.

Fang Ruhui: “Her father ……” Halfway through her sentence, she swallowed back the rest of her words and didn’t mention it again.

Bai Yuehu knew what Fang Ruhui was thinking, but in fact, he understood that it was better not to let Ao Run know about this matter.

It was very difficult for the Dragon Clan and the Humans to connect their bloodlines, especially if the human was a female, because the Dragon race’s bloodline was too overbearing, and it was not easy for a human to conceive a child of the Dragon Clan. Fortunately, Fang Ruhui was a descendant of Goddess Nuwa, so although she was a little weaker, there were no major accidents.

At this time, the child was born successfully, which was a good thing.

Bai Yuehu stood far away and did not dare to get too close. He had only been in Shuifu Village for a short time, and his relationship with Fang Ruhui was not very close. He also knew what had happened before, so when he saw this little dumpling, he felt complicated.

As a mother, Fang Ruhui had already accepted the existence of her child. Her eyes were gentle but showed strength, Bai Yuehu had never seen such a gaze before, and she seemed to have made some kind of decision. Bai Yuehu turned around and went out. He stood at the door and looked at the lush trees in the yard. He felt that humans were really magical animals. Although their bodies were very weak and vulnerable, their spirits were tougher than many non-human beings.

In the days that followed, Bai Yuehu didn’t integrate too much into the family.

Probably because of Ao Run’s incident, Fang Ruhui also treated the Dragons with some hesitation. She was not as kind to the Dragon Clan as she had been from the bottom of her heart, and she was extremely polite when getting along with Bai Yuehu. Bai Yuehu was quite indifferent. He had never gotten along with humans before, and naturally he didn’t know what the normal way of getting along was. When he saw that Fang Ruhui seemed unwilling to let him get close, he would only stay with Fang Ruhui to lend a helping hand when needed and handle the heavy work at home. At other times, he rarely participated in the interaction between Fang Ruhui and her daughter.

The little dumpling grew up little by little and became a graceful girl. When it was almost time for her to become sensible, Fang Ruhui had a talk with Bai Yuehu.

The general idea of the conversation was that she hoped that Bai Yuehu would not appear in front of Fang Ruhui’s daughter. Fang Ruhui had already planned to send her daughter out of Shuifu Village when she was a bit older and let her live with her relatives and completely separate from her life here.

Under normal circumstances, the Guardian could not leave Shuifu Village. However, facing Fang Ruhui’s firm expression, Bai Yuehu did not say anything against it, but nodded in agreement. After that, he never appeared in front of the child again.

Faced with Bai Yuehu’s understanding and tolerance, Fang Ruhui seemed to feel a little guilty. She knew that her resentment towards Ao Run had spread to Bai Yuehu, but when she thought about how Ao disappeared just when she became pregnant, and suddenly attacked her on the day she was about to give birth, she could not suppress the sadness and anger in her heart. Of course, at that time, Fang Ruhui did not fully understand what contamination was, nor could she understand how much self-control it took for Ao Run to appear in front of her again.

In fact, on the day when the child was born, when Bai Yuehu first met Ao Run, Ao Run still looked normal. Ao Run deliberately hid himself at first, but for some reason, he seemed to be stimulated by something, and suddenly broke out and started to attack the old house. Fortunately, the Gods of the Four Seasons were around and stopped him in time, otherwise it might have caused a tragedy.

And Bai Yuehu stayed beside Fang Ruhui, silent and speechless, looking at Fang Ruhui’s appearance… seemingly very sad.

In addition to not being able to appear in front of Fang Ruhui’s child, Bai Yuehu thought Shuifu Village was a good place. He slept on the mountain during the day, and Fang Ruhui would bring him food around evening time.

Sometimes the meal content was very rich, sometimes it was very simple. In short, it all depended on what they had eaten during the day.

“When the child is sent away, you can come back and live here.” Fang Ruhui said to Bai Yuehu one day, “It’s been hard on you all these years.”

Bai Yuehu shook his head, indicating that it didn’t matter.

Fang Ruhui sighed. She apologized and said that she shouldn’t blame Bai Yuehu for the incident. After all, Bai Yuehu was just an innocent new tenant. Bai Yuehu couldn’t quite understand Fang Ruhui’s guilt as he didn’t feel that he had been treated too excessively. After all, Fang Ruhui was actually the first human being he had come into contact with. Later, Fang Ruhui sent her daughter out of Shuifu Village just as she had said, and warned her not to come back again. Bai Yuehu was finally able to come down from the mountain and live in the house.

The lives of the two people were a little boring. Fang Ruhui rarely communicated with Bai Yuehu, and she fell into a slightly autistic state. Farming, raising chickens, but not talking much.

Bai Yuehu, who didn’t know much about human beings, didn’t know what the problem was with his relationship with Fang Ruhui. He just felt that Fang Ruhui’s lifeforce was getting weaker and she didn’t seem to want to live anymore.

“Are you unhappy?” Bai Yuehu asked her.

“Happy?” Fang Ruhui said, “Why should I be happy?”

Bai Yuehu: “Food doesn’t make you happy?”

Fang Ruhui smiled: “It can, just …… not that happy..” She actually wanted to treat Bai Yuehu equally like she treated Ao Run, but she was bitten by a snake once and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t do it. In desperation, her heart was filled with guilt for Bai Yuehu. Bai Yuehu and Ao Run had almost completely different personalities. He knew nothing about the human world and neither knew how to do anything nor liked to talk. He spent most of his time sitting in the yard and resting with his eyes closed, looking very lazy.

In contrast, Ao Run loved life very much, and his cooking skills were even better than her own.

Fang Ruhui didn’t understand why, they were both Dragons, but they were so different.

Bai Yuehu and Fang Ruhui lived a lifeless kind of life for a long time, and the distance between them had no intention of getting closer. Bai Yuehu didn’t think this was that bad, after all, he had never seen so-called good, so without the comparison, he didn’t feel sad anymore.

This situation lasted until Lu Qingjiu was born.

Lu Qingjiu was born outside Shuifu Village. Originally, Fang Ruhui had no intention of bringing him back to Shuifu Village for upbringing. However, perhaps because of the Guardian’s bloodline in his body, Lu Qingjiu’s health was very bad for a long period of time after he was born, he was very prone to getting sick, and his physique was very weak. Because of this incident, Fang Ruhui and her daughter were in a state of distress. Bai Yuehu thought for a while and said to Fang Ruhui: “I think you’d better take him back and raise him.”

“Why?” Fang Ruhui was confused.

“Because this is his duty, maybe Shuifu Village is calling him.” Bai Yuehu said, “Of course, when he is older, you can also send him out again…”

Fang Ruhui thought about it and was still reluctant, but Lu Qingjiu’s physical condition was deteriorating. In desperation, she had no choice but to try Bai Yuehu’s suggestion and take Lu Qingjiu back to Shuifu Village. But she didn’t expect Bai Yuehu’s statement to be true. After returning to Shuifu Village, Lu Qingjiu’s physical condition began to improve and he became full of life.

And Fang Ruhui could only think of raising Lu Qingjiu for a while before sending him out.

Unlike his quiet mother, Lu Qingjiu was very lively and curious about everything when he was a child.

During the Zhuazhou ceremony, Fang Ruhui prepared a table full of things for Lu Qingjiu. Bai Yuehu also became interested and changed himself back to his original shape, lying next to Lu Qingjiu and looking at the little baby eagerly. Yesterday, Fang Ruhui explained to him the meaning of Zhuazhou, so although it was a joke, deep down in Bai Yuehu’s heart, he vaguely longed for Lu Qingjiu to reach out to him…

Lu Qingjiu was white and tender, raised by Fang Ruhui, and his face was like a freshly steamed white bun. He stared blankly around the table with a pair of eyes that were darker than purple grapes, but he was a bit confused about what he was going to do.

“Jiu’er, go get what you like.” Grandma urged gently from the side. Lu Qingjiu’s eyes turned around the table and finally landed on Bai Yuehu.

Bai Yuehu felt a little excited, but still pretended to be calm. He transformed back into a smaller version of his dragon form. He must have looked majestic and handsome, and Lu Qingjiu would definitely like it.

Lu Qingjiu stared at Bai Yuehu for a moment, then his eyes widened slightly and his mouth opened – he let out a sharp cry: “Waaahhh…Grandma…I’m afraid…”

Bai Yuehu: “…”

Fang Ruhui: “…”

Both of them were stunned for a moment, and then Fang Ruhui understood something and couldn’t help but laugh. Bai Yuehu immediately left the table and flew to the roof beam, angrily staring at white dumpling below. Why was this happening? He thought to himself, this little dumpling was too much!

Fang Ruhui quickly picked up Lu Qingjiu and comforted him with a few words. Fortunately, Lu Qingjiu had a good temper and was not a noisy child. He quickly calmed down and held Fang Ruhui’s arms, holding his favorite fox toy that was stuffed in his arms, he fell asleep in a daze.

“It’s okay, it’s okay, the child is too young.” Fang Ruhui was probably afraid that Bai Yuehu would be sad. After comforting her Grandson, she then began to comfort her lovely tenant, “He will like you when he is older.”

Bai Yuehu said nothing as he looked a little unhappy at the fox toy in Lu Qingjiu’s arms. The only furry part on his body was a pair of ears on the top of his head. Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but shake the tips of his ears.

For the next period of time, Bai Yuehu didn’t let Lu Qingjiu see his prototype again and also understood that Lu Qingjiu didn’t seem to like slithery and slippery creatures like him, preferring furry vixens.

Fang Ruhui’s comfort was just a drop in the bucket and had no effect at all.

Seeing Lu Qingjiu growing bigger, Bai Yuehu remembered something, and offered to live back in the mountain and stop contacting Lu Qingjiu.

Fang Ruhui was stunned for a moment when she heard Bai Yuehu’s request. She wanted to say something, but she heard Bai Yuehu say: “Since he is leaving Shuifu Village, then don’t let him come into contact with the Other World.”

Fang Ruhui sighed, and after a long time: “That’s right.”

Bai Yuehu left and never saw Lu Qingjiu again. But occasionally late at night, he would come back to see the little white dumpling that was growing bigger and bigger. After seeing the fox doll in the other party’s arms, he was a little aggrieved, so one day, he quietly stole Lu Qingjiu’s fox doll.

After losing his favorite fox doll, Lu Qingjiu cried the next day. Bai Yuehu felt a little guilty, but when he looked at the furry and white fox doll in his hand, he became angry again and snorted, unwilling to return it to Lu Qingjiu.

That night, when Fang Ruhui came to deliver food to Bai Yuehu, she held back her smile and said it was because Lu Qingjiu was too young and when he would be a little older, he wouldn’t be sleeping with the doll in his arms anymore. She also said that Bai Yuehu’s prototype was also actually very beautiful, but a child may not like it very much, so Bai Yuehu must not take it to heart.

Bai Yuehu completely regarded Fang Ruhui’s words as perfunctory and comforting. He felt that he had seen through Lu Qingjiu’s soul. This naive child was a hateful fluff maniac.

After getting along with each other these years, and with Lu Qingjiu’s return, Fang Ruhui became better and better towards Bai Yuehu, and even tended to treat him as a family member. Although Bai Yuehu vaguely felt the changes, he did not realize what it meant.

Lu Qingjiu stayed in Shuifu Village for several years, and it was not until he was in elementary school that his parents took him out again. At this time, he had no memory of his childhood experiences, nor did he remember that he had been made to cry by a little black dragon. He only vaguely remembered that he seemed to have lost a favorite fox doll.

After Lu Qingjiu left, the whole house fell silent again. Although Bai Yuehu could go back to live in the house, he felt inexplicably empty. This feeling was ridiculous, because he had been alone for thousands of years, and he had never felt lonely.

Human beings were indeed highly contagious creatures, and their emotions could easily be transmitted to the surrounding creatures.

Bai Yuehu could only suppress this strange feeling.

After Lu Qingjiu left, Fang Ruhui gradually began to show her age. Bai Yuehu watched helplessly as Fang Ruhui aged, from a girl with jet-black hair to a woman with gray hairs on her temples. It only took a few decades for human beings, but it was already the vicissitudes of the world. Fang Ruhui became old, and old age meant illness and death.

Bai Yuehu thought that everything would develop as he imagined, but a sudden accident completely shattered the calm.

On an ordinary summer day, Ao Run suddenly appeared and swallowed up Fang Ruhui’s daughter and son-in-law, Lu Qingjiu’s father and mother, all in one gulp.

This incident was completely beyond Bai Yuehu’s expectations. He didn’t understand why Ao Run would do such a thing. It stood to reason that a corrupted Dragon would eat their beloved, so if he really wanted to eat, he should have eaten Fang Ruhui first. How could he eat his daughter? In fact, Dragons had very weak feelings for their offspring, and would not care about their birth and ignore their upbringing. Moreover, the blood of the Dragons was strong enough, and even if there were no adult dragons to take care of them, there were very few other creatures that could bully them.

Although he was shocked, things still happened. Bai Yuehu suspected that there was some misunderstanding, but Fang Ruhui had already accepted this cruel fact.

She concealed her grief and acted very calmly in front of Lu Qingjiu, but only Bai Yuehu knew that she might not be able to hold on for long.

Lu Qingjiu had also grown from a little white dumpling to an adult. Bai Yuehu felt strange to him because he came back once or twice a year at most and left after a short time. He didn’t seem to have any fate with Shuifu Village, to the point that even when Fang Ruhui passed away, he didn’t have time to come back.

Bai Yuehu watched Lu Qingjiu take care of Fang Ruhui’s funeral and left in a tangled state. He stood by the roadside and stared at Lu Qingjiu’s back.

Bai Yuehu thought this was the last time he would see Lu Qingjiu. After all, without Fang Ruhui in Shuifu Village, Lu Qingjiu would no longer have the last thing that brought him back to the village. He could leave here and never come back again.

In the next few years, Bai Yuehu spent most of his time alone in the mountains, occasionally returning to the town to look for some food.

This kind of life might be very bad for humans, because they didn’t have enough food to eat, but for Bai Yuehu, he actually tolerated it. The only thing that bothered him was the all-pervading hunger. He wanted to have a warm and full meal, but Fang Ruhui was gone and the old house was in ruins. He was just a tenant without a Guardian.

A few years later, one day, Bai Yuehu left Shuifu Village at night as usual and planned to go to the town. However, he smelled a familiar scent halfway up the mountain. He suddenly stopped while flying in the air. He stepped down and stopped in the middle of the path leading to the town from Shuifu Village.

A taxi drove over, but suddenly stopped when it illuminated him. Bai Yuehu slowly walked to the side of the car and saw the person sitting in the car. It was a familiar face showing a hint of bewilderment as he asked him, “Sir, it’s so late and this place is so remote, do you have something to do?”

When Bai Yuehu heard this question, he suddenly laughed and said, “It’s okay. I couldn’t sleep at night, so I came out to find something to eat.”

Hearing this, Lu Qingjiu seemed to feel that the person in front of him was a little strange, but he didn’t say anything more. He just casually told him to pay attention to his safety. Bai Yuehu said nothing, reached out and patted the taxi door gently, and then left.

After he left, he did not go to the town to look for food as planned, but returned to Shuifu Village.

Lu Qingjiu was back. Why did he come back? Wasn’t Fang Ruhui already dead? Did he come back to visit the grave? But now was not the death anniversary of Fang Ruhui, let alone a special day…

Bai Yuehu sat on the roof and thought, maybe Lu Qingjiu wanted to return to live here, but why? Wasn’t the outside world more interesting? Lu Qingjiu suddenly came back here, could it be for something? As he thought about it, he suddenly became happy. After all, if Lu Qingjiu came back, there would be a Guardian here again, and he wouldn’t have to look for food by himself. But Lu Qingjiu didn’t seem to know anything about those things, and he also hated his Dragon form…

Bai Yuehu frowned, a little troubled, but he quickly thought of a perfect solution – the Strange tales of Liaozhai gave him inspiration.

Didn’t all humans love furry fox spirits the most, if he was a fox spirit, then Lu Qingjiu would surely accept him very quickly, right? The more Bai Yuehu thought about it, the more it made sense, so he happily decided on his identity… A pitiful, helpless and weak vixen, in order to better fit his identity, he gave himself another name – Bai Yuehu.

Since he wanted to be a vixen, he had to be more obvious. It’s best to show it in his name, Bai Yuehu thought in this way. Coupled with the fox tail that was previously won from Su Yan, Lu Qingjiu has no reason at all to be suspicious of himself!

Bai Yuehu showed a satisfied smile as he thought more of the matter. At that moment, a strange smell suddenly came from the wind. Bai Yuehu smelled this scent and knew that it was his food that had taken the bait.

Lu Qingjiu, who was sleeping in the house, didn’t know what was on the roof of his house. He was lying in the old house and vaguely heard the sound of shaking tiles above his head. He opened his eyes in some confusion, then saw something lifting up the tiles, and a pair of blood-red eyes were exposed from that end. Those eyes obviously did not belong to a human being, and inside the eyeballs there were even transient membranes that belonged uniquely to reptiles.

Lu Qingjiu showed a horrified expression, but he didn’t know that this was just the beginning of his story with Bai Yuehu.

Bai Yuehu, who was sitting at the other end, licked his lips and waited for the delicious food that was about to enter his mouth. He just didn’t know whether this delicious food referred to the gecko spirit who had been deceived, or Lu Qingjiu, who was lying on the bed and didn’t know anything. …

Ela ~~ SURPRISE!! Decided to post all the extras on the last day
