The green dragon that the phoenix knew was originally a bamboo green snake in the bamboo forest. Later, it gained spiritual consciousness like the phoenix. After practicing for five hundred years, it was barely transformed into a green dragon. As for transforming into a dragon, it will take some time, perhaps hundreds of years, or even thousands of years.
Everything is destined by fate.
After falling from the sky, the rabbit lived with the phoenix for more than three months. It got to know the big monsters in the surrounding area, the green dragon, and the tiger with two long incisors and yellow and black stripes. When it preyed on wild boars, its sharp teeth could not withstand the bite of any thick skin.
At first, it didn't know that the rabbit was a follower of the phoenix, so it could swallow the white rabbit with just one mouthful.
Of course, he failed in the end and was beaten by the phoenix.
On the southeast slope of Shennongding, there is a coffin beast with a big head, a short neck, a long and thin tail that can swing freely and sometimes even rest on the back, and its body is covered with gray fur.
It often eats rotten meat and never takes a bath. It is an unusually sloppy creature in the monster world.
You can smell its stench from hundreds of meters away.
When the phoenix was taking the rabbit to look for food, it smelled the scent of the coffin beast. This was unbearable for the phoenix, who had always been obsessed with mysophobia, and it roared.
The coffin beast was originally eating the delicious food it had found. Hearing the threat from the phoenix, it took a piece of rotten meat in its mouth and ran down the mountain at full speed. The branches it touched broke with a crackling sound, and the boulders raised by its four hooves rolled with a rumbling sound.
Winter is coming soon.
During this period, both big and small monsters had to store food, so as not to starve to death during the severe winter.
At this time, rabbits like to eat green grass, sweet wild vegetables, and various grasses. As long as it is edible, they like it very much.
In order to store food for the winter, the phoenix has to look for food around Shennongjia, flying back and forth from east to west and north every day.
The rabbit was bored, so he followed the phoenix.
In fact, it is afraid that after the phoenix leaves, it will be bitten to death by animals that hate the phoenix in revenge.
It hid in the wings of the phoenix and went with the phoenix to look for spiritual fruits and bamboo fruits.
I encountered a donkey-headed wolf. Its four legs were relatively slender, its tail was thick and long, and its entire body was gray except for a small amount of white hair on its belly. Its head was like a donkey's, and its body was like a big bad wolf's. It was like a big bad wolf with its head cut off and replaced with a donkey's head, but its body was much larger than a wolf's.
When the phoenix lands, it will give a friendly greeting.
Noticing that there was a rabbit following the phoenix, he couldn't help but wonder, "When did you let a rabbit follow you?"
"I met it not long ago. I thought it was quite interesting, so I let it follow me." The phoenix replied.
The donkey-headed wolf looked at the pure white rabbit in surprise for a few times, but after looking at it for a long time, he couldn't figure out anything. He could only exclaim in admiration, "I didn't expect you to have such a hobby."
“???” The phoenix was stubborn and didn’t understand what it meant.
The donkey-headed wolf remembered something serious and asked, "Oh, I have a lot of orange fruits growing here. Can you help me take a look and see if they are suitable for food storage?"
You won’t be able to survive this winter by relying solely on meat, so stock up on some vegetarian food just in case.
"Take me to see it."
The donkey-headed wolf brought the phoenix to the place where the new species grew. From a distance, a hint of orange was exposed on the soil under the long green leaves.
The rabbit slid down from the phoenix's body.
Took a bite of the long green leaf.
He smacked his lips and said, "It tastes okay."
The donkey-headed wolf dug up the soil and took out the whole root. "Try the orange part."
The rabbit stretched out its paw, wiped off the dirt, and took a bite.
The crisp and sweet juice soaks into your mouth.
The rabbit's crystal red eyes were full of stars. "It's so delicious! Crunchy and sweet! Better than grass!!"
As it spoke, it picked up the stick and jumped in front of the phoenix, as if to ask for credit, "Big bird, this tastes really good, you try it."
Hearing the rabbit's excited tone, the phoenix took a bite and said under the gaze of the two monsters, "This thing has spiritual power and can be eaten."
"Do you think it tastes good?" the rabbit asked the phoenix.
The phoenix said perfunctorily, "It's okay."
"I think this tastes better than grass," said the rabbit again.
Perhaps because they had been together for a long time, the phoenix understood what it meant, so it glanced at the donkey-headed wolf with its golden eyes, its intention obvious.
The donkey-headed wolf smiled awkwardly but politely, "Hahaha, I still have quite a lot here, you can pick more if you like."
With the help of the phoenix, the rabbit pulled out more than a dozen carrots, wrapped them in banana leaves, carried them on his back with his beak, and returned home with a full load.
Before leaving, the rabbit told the donkey-headed wolf that they would come back next year when the carrots bloomed and bore fruit.
After storing winter food, the rabbit filled its nest to the brim.
The rabbit's nest was made of dead leaves, but the phoenix couldn't stand it, so it used mud to make a small nest next to the phoenix's nest, which could shelter from wind and rain.
When does winter arrive? Perhaps it's when some of the withered, yellowed leaves begin to fall, a fine snow begins to fall, and the wind picks up.
The rabbits stay in their own nests, and when they are hungry they eat the hay and carrots they have stored, spending the winter happily.
Rabbits do not hibernate. After staying in the nest for a few days, it could not hold it anymore and jumped into a passage in the nest. On the other side of the passage was the phoenix's nest.
When the rabbit came to visit, the phoenix was resting with its eyes closed.
Phoenixes don't hibernate, it's just winter and it's so cold outside, and it's warm in their nests, so why would they go out for a walk?
