After shouting like that, Liu Xiaoyuan found himself a little bolder and less frightened than before.
It seems that when you're timid and scared, yelling can indeed increase your courage.
However, the monster with blood-red eyes seemed to have been scared away by Liu Xiaoyuan. No matter how much Liu Xiaoyuan shouted, the monster did not show itself again.
"Damn it, you're lucky. Otherwise, I would have shown you how powerful I am." Liu Xiaoyuan muttered to himself, then noticed that the monster was gone. He picked up his motorcycle and prepared to leave again.
Just then, another small pebble was thrown at the back of Liu Xiaoyuan's head, hitting him on the head.
No doubt, it's that monster with blood-red eyes again!
Enraged, Liu Xiaoyuan lowered the kickstand of his motorcycle and recklessly charged backward.
Liu Xiaoyuan was furious. This guy was making a fool of him. He didn't care what kind of monster those blood-red eyes were. He was just going to catch him first.
Once this person gets angry, he's afraid of nothing.
At first, Liu Xiaoyuan was terrified of the monster with blood-red eyes, and a chill ran down his spine.
Now, fueled by anger, Liu Xiaoyuan didn't care whether the thing was a ghost, a monster, or an animal.
All Liu Xiaoyuan wanted to do now was to vent his anger!
The monster with blood-red eyes clearly hadn't expected Liu Xiaoyuan to charge at it recklessly, and it turned and ran.
At this moment, with the help of the dim roadside lights, Liu Xiaoyuan finally discovered what it was. It was indeed a fox-like animal with snow-white fur. It moved strangely and disappeared from Liu Xiaoyuan's sight in the blink of an eye.
Liu Xiaoyuan discovered that the other party was actually an animal, not a ghost, which made him even bolder.
Damn it! You've really messed with me today, I'm going to catch you, skin you alive, roast you, and eat you!
Liu Xiaoyuan took off after it, but unfortunately the thing was too fast. After a few steps, it disappeared from sight.
Liu Xiaoyuan stood still, looking ahead. There was a big mountain in front of him, so it seemed that the thing had run into the mountain.
Let alone at night, even during the day, if Liu Xiaoyuan were to chase an animal into the mountains, he certainly wouldn't be able to catch it, let alone at night.
In addition, the mountains were pitch black at night, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, which was quite frightening. And besides, it's summer; what if you stepped on a venomous snake?
After hesitating for a while, Liu Xiaoyuan turned back!
"Damn it! I'll let you off the hook for now, you monster. But if you dare to mess with me again tomorrow night, I'll skin you alive!" Liu Xiaoyuan thought angrily, looking at the mountain in front of him.
Now that he knew the blood-red eyes weren't a ghost, Liu Xiaoyuan wasn't afraid anymore and rode his motorcycle home.
When Liu Xiaoyuan got home, his parents saw that he was covered in dirt and his motorcycle was wrecked.
Liu Xiaoyuan had no choice but to lie and say that he had accidentally crashed into a vegetable field while riding his bicycle. He did not tell his parents about encountering the blood-red eyes, so as not to worry them.
Liu Xiaoyuan had actually bumped into the vegetable garden and fallen, so his parents believed his lie.
After taking a shower, Liu Xiaoyuan suddenly asked, "Dad, are there really foxes in the mountains around our village?"
Liu Xiaoyuan asked this question because he noticed that the thing with the blood-red eyes looked like a fox, and its fur was snow-white.
When Liu Xiaoyuan suddenly asked this question, his father asked, "Why are you asking this?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "I'm just asking out of curiosity, do foxes really exist?"
Dad said, "I don't know if it exists or not, but other people have seen it and said there's a den of foxes in these mountains."
My mother chimed in, "I heard your grandfather mention before that there's a nest of fox spirits in these mountains who have cultivated themselves into demons. So, at night, nobody dares to go into the mountains for fear of having their yang energy sucked away by the fox spirits."
My mom is still as superstitious as ever; whenever this topic comes up, she tells the whole legend.
Liu Xiaoyuan had naturally heard his grandfather tell the legend of the fox spirit, but he didn't believe it and thought it was just a legend.
So-called fox spirits are all lies; there are no fox spirits in the world.
However, after what happened tonight, Liu Xiaoyuan had some doubts, because tonight this fox-like animal had treated him like a monkey.
Knowing that he would have to pass through there on his way home, he ambushed himself in the vegetable garden to scare him.
Of course, it's possible that the thing just happened to be there.
But after scaring me, this thing actually ran behind me and scared me again, and even threw stones at me. Its intelligence is like that of a child.
Moreover, they are extremely fast, much faster than ordinary cats and dogs when they run away.
Based on these points, Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't help but suspect that there really was a fox spirit in the mountains.
Could the legend be true? Liu Xiaoyuan felt his worldview was about to be completely shattered!
After listening to my mother's words, she said, "Those are just legends. Who has ever seen a fox spirit?"
"Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it doesn't exist!" Mom and Dad started arguing.
Liu Xiaoyuan quickly stepped in to mediate, otherwise they would start arguing over this point of view again.
After reconciling the two elders, Liu Xiaoyuan went upstairs to sleep.
Liu Xiaoyuan tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep, wondering if the thing he had encountered that night was a fox.
If it's a fox, is it a fox spirit?
"Hey, system, aren't you a system from the future? I have a question for you." Liu Xiaoyuan began to communicate with the system.
The system generously replied, "Go ahead and ask, young man."
Liu Xiaoyuan asked, "Tell me, do monsters and gods really exist in this world?"
The system said, "Young man, even this system doesn't know how to answer your question. When you come into contact with certain things, you will find that a brand new door opens for you, and a completely new and unfamiliar world awaits you to explore..."
Liu Xiaoyuan retorted angrily, "Stop arguing with me about words, just speak like a normal person!"
The system said, "Young man, I can tell you very clearly that if you want to know the answer, you will know it in the future."
Liu Xiaoyuan originally thought the system would tell him the answer, but unexpectedly the system kept him in suspense.
Holy crap! You damn system, are you deliberately trying to keep us in suspense?
"Hey, give me an answer!" Liu Xiaoyuan urged.
The system said, "Young man, don't disturb me, I need to rest. Good night!"
As a system, what right do you have to take a break?
"Hey, wake up! Tell me the answer before you go back to sleep, hurry up..."
No matter how Liu Xiaoyuan spoke to the system, the system remained silent, as if it were asleep.
