All the wine in the wine jar was poured into the gourd, but the gourd was not full. Li Guang felt a little regretful, as the gourd was almost full.
Unexpectedly, the old Taoist priest burst into laughter when he saw that the wine gourd was not full, appearing very pleased.
Li Guang was puzzled, wondering why the old Taoist was laughing.
"Young brother, you may not know this, but this wine gourd has been with me for many years and has long been in harmony with my heart. The fact that the wine gourd is not full means that our matter is not over yet, and we will meet again in the future."
If you had filled your gourd to the brim with wine, young man, we might never have had the chance to meet again. In that case, I would have stayed to keep you company. But now it seems unnecessary. We can drink to our hearts' content next time we meet.”
“But it’s still raining outside. If you leave now, you’ll definitely get soaked,” Li Guang said worriedly.
"Don't worry, it's been raining for so long, it should stop for a while. There won't be any heavy rain within an hour, just a little drizzle. During this time, young man, you can do some things."
The heavy rain will continue until midnight. Before it gets dark, I must take my leave. Until we meet again.
After the old Taoist finished speaking, he cupped his hands in greeting to Li Guang and walked towards the courtyard gate. Li Guang quickly followed after him.
As soon as the old Taoist priest stepped out of the courtyard, the rain suddenly subsided, just as he had said; now it was only a light drizzle.
Watching the old Taoist priest's departing figure, Li Guang stood there dumbfounded. This old Taoist priest was too incredible; he knew exactly when it would rain and when it would stop.
Li Guang watched the old Taoist priest walk away until he could no longer see anything.
At this moment, a magnificent rainbow appeared where the old Taoist had disappeared. It was colorful and very beautiful. Could it be that the old Taoist was really a deity?
The old Taoist priest said that there would only be light rain in the next hour, and that he could do some things during this time. Thinking of this, he immediately turned around and went back to check on the little fox. He found that it was doing well and had fallen asleep on the hay.
The little fox Yu Hong was recovering from her injuries, and in order to prevent Xiao Hei from disturbing her, Li Guang locked Xiao Hei in the room and didn't let her out.
After taking care of these matters, Li Guang packed the bowls and plates into a basket, picked up the basket, and left the farm.
A rainbow appeared on the horizon, indicating that the sky had cleared up. Although there were still a few drops of rain, it didn't stop people from going out to work.
People gradually emerged from the village and headed towards the fields, their faces beaming with joy. The rain had been incredibly effective, completely resolving the drought, and the weather would begin to cool down from today onwards.
When Li Guang returned home, his family stood outside to get some fresh air; they had been cooped up all day and wanted to move around.
When Li Guang returned, everyone gathered around and inquired about the old Taoist priest's condition.
“The old Taoist priest said that it would rain heavily again in an hour, so he left during that time,” Li Guang said.
"No way, a rainbow has appeared in the sky, which means the weather is going to clear up. Besides, there are fewer clouds in the sky, so there shouldn't be any more heavy rain."
"The old Taoist said the rain hasn't stopped, it's just a light drizzle, and it will get heavier in an hour. We'll find out soon enough whether he's right or not."
Everyone looked at the sky; the rain was indeed still falling, but it was very light.
Then Li Guang began to recount the details of his conversation with the old Taoist priest. When everyone heard that Xiao Hei was a mountain bear, they were all stunned.
They had been looking at Xiao Hei a bit strangely, but no one expected that it was actually a bear cub. No wonder there had been so many mountain bears trying to enter the village at night lately; it was all because of Xiao Hei.
Xiao Hei has already been left at the farm, so Shan Xiong will definitely go there at night. Wouldn't Li Guang be in danger? Zhao Xian began to worry.
Seeing that everyone was worried about his safety, Li Guang repeated what the old Taoist had said, telling everyone that he was not in any danger.
Zhao Xian breathed a sigh of relief, but he still decided to have Zhao Cheng and Chen Daniu stay at the farm during this period to protect Li Guang's safety.
Later, Li Guang recounted how he rescued the little fox in the rain, which surprised everyone even more, as Li Guang had actually encountered such a bizarre event.
“I’ve heard from older generations that the red fox is a kind of spirit beast. It is very intelligent and understands human nature. If you save it, it will follow you for the rest of its life and repay you,” Li Yue’e said.
"I'd like to see the red fox, is that alright?" Qin Shiyu asked.
"Of course you can. When I left, the red fox was still sleeping. When you go, please be quiet and don't scare it. The old Taoist priest gave the red fox a name, Yu Hong. You can call the little fox Yu Hong from now on."
“Okay, okay, we should go see Yu Hong too, it must be so cute.” The other girls immediately chimed in.
"Alright, then you go take a look and come back. The rest of you, get to work quickly and try to finish everything before the heavy rain starts, including dinner," Zhao Xian instructed.
So everyone dispersed and went about their own business.
Several girls followed Li Guang to the farm. They tiptoed into the room to see what the red fox looked like.
The little fox had already woken up. It seemed to know that someone was coming to see it, and it lay down on the straw.
The water on Yu Hong's fur had dried, and her fur looked like a ball of flame, making the little fox look like a raging fire.
Li Guang squatted down, picked up the little fox, and walked into the courtyard.
The room was too dark, but the yard was well-lit, so it was easier to see.
The red fox is very beautiful, with large, alluring eyes. Could this be the legendary seductive gaze?
Several girls immediately took a liking to the red fox. They touched the fox's fiery red fur with their hands. The red fox squinted its eyes, looking like it was enjoying itself, and made "whimpering" sounds.
So this is what a fox's cry sounds like; it's the first time they've ever heard it.
Several girls took turns hugging the red fox, and Yu Hong cooperated, giving the girls plenty of face.
At this moment, Li Guang remembered the little fox's wound and hurriedly went to check on it.
There were no wounds left; the bite from the snake had long since disappeared, and everything was perfectly fine.
It seems that the medicine the old Taoist priest took out to treat the little fox's wounds is definitely a miracle drug. After applying it to the wound, the scar has already disappeared in such a short time.
Just as everyone was talking to Red Fox, Little Black pushed open the door and ran out of the room.
Ancient doors were made of solid wood and were very heavy. Even a person would need some strength to push or pull them. Unexpectedly, Xiao Hei managed to push open the closed door. It seems that Xiao Hei is quite strong, worthy of being a cub of a mountain bear.
The girls usually treated Xiao Hei well, often feeding it snacks, and Xiao Hei liked to play with them. But now that they were holding a red-haired guy in their arms, they seemed to have forgotten about it, and Xiao Hei suddenly felt jealous.
