The Emperor is Above

Chapter 6: The Jade Beads of the Little Fox

"Ah wu——"

The cute voice, white fluff, and sparkling eyes make the little white fox particularly lovable.

"Haha, what a nice white fox! Its skin must be worth a lot of money!" Qing Yi's voice was like a biting cold wind, causing the little white fox to shiver.

"Ah wu——"

Finding that he couldn't confuse the other party, the little white fox tried hard to act cute and appear harmless, but Qing Yi didn't dare to look down on him in the slightest.

Da Niu was born with supernatural powers. Even without any practice, he had a strength of 300 kilograms at the initial stage of body building. However, he was easily deceived by the little white fox, which shows that the origin of this little thing is not simple.

"Ah? Master, what happened to me just now?" Da Niu shook his head blankly, not knowing what had happened.

"Nothing. I was wondering whether I should skin this little thing. A white fox skin is worth a lot of money in the capital." Qing Yi held the little fox tightly, letting it struggle desperately in his hand.

"You actually scratched my master, I'm going to kill you!" Daniu became furious when he saw that the little fox's tender claws had actually scratched Qing Yi's finger, leaving a faint bloody mark.

"Don't worry!"

Qing Yi stopped Daniu and found that the little white fox was moving strangely, with its hind paws clenched together as if it was hiding something.

"Squeak-"

Ignoring the little white fox's screams, Qing Yi took out a bead the size of a pigeon egg.

The beads are extremely round, emerald green like jade, clear as flowing water, and their appearance is completely natural without any traces of carving. Even the finest jade cannot compare to them.

Qing Yi held the jade bead in the palm of his hand, rubbed it repeatedly, and held it to the bright light at the entrance of the cave to examine it repeatedly, but he could not find the special function of the jade bead.

This made him feel a little unwilling: "A little fox that can understand human language and can confuse people, how can such a valuable bead be ordinary?"

Just when Qing Yi was about to put it away for the time being, the bloody scratches on his hand caused by the little fox touched the jade bead. The bead suddenly flashed a green light and disappeared silently in his hand.

"This is?"

Qing Yi paused, his face full of surprise, and his movements suddenly froze.

The little white fox fell to the ground and screamed loudly, struggling with its body and claws bared, its round eyes full of shock and unwillingness.

Daniu looked at his master worriedly: "Master, master, how are you?"

Qing Yi only felt a warm current flowing slowly from the palm of his hand through his whole body, and there was no longer any sense of coldness. After a moment, he felt strength all over his body, followed by a burning hunger.

"Daniu, make a fire quickly, I'm starving!"

Due to hunger, Qing Yi no longer cared about the little white fox. While Daniu went to collect firewood to make a fire, he quickly skinned a few snow rabbits, washed them with snow, smeared them with salt, and roasted them.

······
“Snow rabbit meat is so delicious!”

Qing Yi, who usually has a small appetite, ate voraciously at this moment. He had already eaten three roasted snow rabbits but still felt extremely hungry. "Daniu, roast three more."

"Okay, master!"

Without hesitation, Daniu roasted three more snow rabbits, and the aroma of the delicious rabbit meat filled the air.

"Squeak-"

After the little white fox fell to the ground, it unexpectedly did not run away, but squatted beside Qing Yi with an angry look on its face. At this time, it couldn't help but pounce on him and grab a snow rabbit leg to eat.

Qing Yi was not angry. He suddenly discovered at this moment that after the snow rabbit meat was swallowed, it gradually turned into a heat current, flowing slowly along the meridians in the body. The more he ate, the more obvious the heat current became.

After the heat flow passed, it was like the dry land encountering long-awaited rain, and the originally weak body became exceptionally strong.

Apparently, this was all due to the magical effect of the little fox's jade bead. After stealing someone else's treasure, it was nothing to compensate them with a snow rabbit's hind leg. "Little fox, let's say we exchanged. I used such a big rabbit leg to exchange for your small bead. You've made a profit."

Qing Yi held the whole snow rabbit in his arms and ate it in big bites while talking to the little fox.

"Ah wu——"

The little fox's eyes were wide open and his expression was dull. I have never seen such a shameless person.

No matter how unwilling it was, the jade bead had already merged into the other party's body. It had no choice but to eat a big meal in anger to comfort itself.

After eating the fifth roasted rabbit, Qing Yi finally felt 70% full. As for the remaining rabbit, the little fox took one of its hind legs and the bull ate the rest.

"I'm finally full, let's see how much strength I have now!"

As he spoke, Qing Yi walked towards the side of the earth cliff, where there was a pile of scattered stones. The small ones weighed dozens of pounds, the big ones weighed hundreds of pounds, and the largest one weighed at least one or two thousand pounds.

Qing Yi only felt that his whole body was full of strength at this moment, hating the sky for not having a handle, hating the earth for not having a ring,

First he came to the biggest rock, stood in a horse stance, put all his strength into his arms, hugged the rock tightly and exerted force: "Hey!"

The embarrassing thing was that the stone didn't move at all. Qing Yi almost sprained his waist. It was obvious that he had no experience in cultivation and overestimated his own strength.

"Gu Gu Gu Gu——"

The little fox laughed so hard that he fell backwards and even rolled around in the snow, looking extremely happy.

"How shameful! I was laughed at by a little fox!" Qing Yi wiped his sweat and obediently came to a stone weighing about 100 kilograms.

"Hey!"

This time he lifted the hundred-pound stone with ease, and when he threw it casually, it sank deeply into the snow ditch next to him.

After repeated attempts, Qing Yi found that with his current strength, he could only lift a stone weighing about 160 kilograms, but he was still very satisfied:
"Not bad. Originally, I only had 30 to 40 kilograms of strength. Now my strength has increased four or five times. Eating can increase my strength. It's really a great bargain."

Today's hunting was fruitful. Originally, I just wanted to hunt the snow rabbit leader, but I unexpectedly found the skeleton of a giant beast in the snow rabbit cave. More importantly, I got the jade beads from the little white fox.

"Daniu, pack up and go home!"

The master and servant worked together to put out the campfire and filled up the collapsed snow rabbit cave beside the earth cliff to prevent anyone from discovering the giant beast skeleton buried there.

"Master, what should we do with this little fox? Should we just let it go?" Daniu held the little white fox in one hand. He really didn't want to hurt it. It would be a shame to kill such a beautiful little thing.

In fact, Qing Yi was reluctant to kill the little white fox. A white fox that had the ability of illusion at such a young age would at least be a magical beast when it grew up.

Besides, they had robbed the other party of their treasure. Qing Yi thought for a moment and said, "Let's take this little thing home. I heard that foxes can catch mice. From now on, it will be our chief mouse catcher."

"That's true, Hua Ni is too lazy!" Daniu couldn't help feeling a little ashamed when he thought of the lazy and fat civet cat his grandmother raised.

"Squeak-"

When the little white fox heard that Qing Yi actually wanted it to catch a mouse, it squeaked in anger, but Da Niu stuffed it into the animal skin bag on his shoulder, leaving only its little head sticking out, its chubby face puffed up with anger.

Seeing the helpless look of the little thing, Qing Yi laughed, put on his skis, packed his luggage, and took the lead in skiing towards Huaiqiuli in the northwest direction.

Huaiqiuli is thirty miles away to the northwest. Qing Yi was not strong enough when he came here, and it took him a long time to get here. Now he feels full of strength, and he enjoys skiing so much, as if he is flying over the snowfield.

Just as he was about to rush out of the woods, he suddenly stopped and shouted in a low voice: "Daniu, stop, there is a pack of wild wolves ahead."
