Chapter 250 A Fluctuating Heart

Looking at the fox demon lying flat, Xia Fan took a deep breath.

Although it was not a heart test, his heartbeat seemed to be a little faster than when he was in the Kan technique.

He sat next to the other party and reached out to hold one of the ears.

Li twisted a little, and seemed a little uncomfortable, but she still closed her eyes and let Xia Fan feel it carefully.

——This is a real animal ear.

Compared with Shanhui's Shiba Inu ears, these ears are undoubtedly much longer.

Xia Fan thought to himself that it felt like a cattail leaf, wide and soft, but by no means without strength. A slightly pulsating meridian can be touched at the base of the ear. As long as the fox demon wants, it can immediately stand up and capture small sounds a hundred meters away.

He probed into the inside along the outer skin of the ear, where there was a ball of fluff blocking the entrance to the ear canal, probably to prevent the intrusion of dust and rain.

I have to say that this shape is quite scientific.

"Hehe..." When Xia Fan kneaded the fluff, Li couldn't help but chuckle, "It's a little itchy, and..."

"And what?"

"There's a feeling I can't describe."

"Okay," Xia Fan retracted his hand, "Next is the ear cleaning phase."

"Yeah." She responded softly.

Xia Fan picked up a thin ear spoon, passed through the fluff, and probed deep into the fox demon's ear hole, and the latter's body immediately tensed up.

Obviously, when such a sensitive place is invaded by a foreign object, anyone's first reaction is nervousness and rejection.

But even so, she didn't show any refusal.

The ears are different from the tail - the latter is not a vital part of the body, and no matter how much you touch it, it will not cause serious consequences, but the former is connected to the head, even she rarely touches the part inside the ear canal deeply.

In fact, Li herself was very surprised.

She didn't expect that one day she would let humans get close to such a weak point without any defense.

But thinking back a little, she felt that this scene was natural.

Perhaps since the two of them fought side by side in Gaoshan County, she has been different from her previous self.

After the initial stiffness and discomfort subsided, Li felt an indescribable sense of comfort, as if the lower part of her scalp was being touched directly, and she couldn't help but hum.

It seems that the other party was right.

This is indeed an extremely pleasant thing.

After cleaning both ears, Xia Fan let out a long sigh.

Finally, he took another solid step in exploring monsters.

"It feels pretty good." Li stood up with his tail wagging, and took the box of tools. "Lie down, it's your turn next."

"Uh..." Looking at the other party's eager expression, Xia Fan suddenly felt something was wrong, "Actually, I can put it off until next time."

"That won't do." Li stretched out his tail and easily rolled Xia Fan onto his legs, "I suddenly thought of a new way of training."

"No way, this will work?"

"Do you still remember the Kan technique used by the An family during the last battle of Jinxia City? It's the echo technique that can amplify perception - I actually know a thing or two about it." Li followed Xia Fan's previous practice and put the ear spoon into his ear, "Next, your feelings will be amplified several times. According to my experience just now, most of them should be benign feedback, but sometimes when facing the enemy, comfort and ease are more threatening than pain, and you will relax your vigilance if you are not careful. So remember to keep your mind steady and don't lose to this kind of enjoyment."

"Wait, I'm not mentally prepared yet-"

"It's started. Kan technique, echo!"

The room was filled with irrepressible laughter and shouting.

…

At night, the fox demon climbed out of the window, climbed up the roof quietly, and sat down at one end of the ridge.

She didn't know why she left the room at this time.

Perhaps looking at the bright moon above her head would calm her mood a little.

"Meow..."

The fat cat that had been following her before appeared in front of her again.

But this time Li hesitated for a moment, did not throw it away, but let it get close to her.

Probably realizing that there was an opportunity today, the cat demon quickly climbed onto her shoulder.

"Well, since you want to follow me, I'll give you a name." She rubbed the cat's head, "How about Ah Fei."

"Woo--" The cat demon made a low protest.

"Is it not okay? Ah Hua... It seems that someone has called it again, so let's call it Fei Hua."

The cat demon's whiskers drooped, and it was obviously not satisfied with the name.

Suddenly, it raised its whiskers and turned its head to look behind it-at the same time, there was a clattering sound of footsteps from behind, and Li knew without looking that it must be Shan Hui.

"Why, you can't sleep either?"

"No, I just happened to see the boss through the window and came to check on the situation." Tiangou squatted down behind her, "Is the boss worried?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Because I saw you looking up at the sky and laughing foolishly, and then sighing. As far as I know, normal people wouldn't--"

Tiangou suddenly shut up halfway because he saw the fox demon's gaze was like a sharp knife.

"If you tell this to others, you will become a floating object in the East China Sea, do you understand?"

"Meow--!" Fat Cat also bared his teeth and protested.

Shanhui nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.

As a dog demon, he naturally couldn't take a monster seriously, but he still had to obey the boss's words.

There was a long silence on the roof.

Until Li spoke again. Her voice was very light, as if she was recalling something, "I have never felt disgusted or regretful because I am a demon. This is my nature, and I will not deny my nature. But... recently I often have a thought, if I were an ordinary person, would I not have such troubles."

Even if someone has no prejudice against demons, she still knows very well in her heart that there is still a huge gap between demons and humans.

Whether it is driven by curiosity or led by research, there will always be a day of satisfaction.

"I have thought about it before." Shanhui replied.

"Have you figured out anything?"

"No... It's like many of the questions I've thought about, there's no answer." Shanhui said without hiding anything, "So I won't think about it later - anyway, Lord Wuyue will tell me what to do."

"Sometimes it's easy to be like you."

"But not the boss. After all, no one can tell the leader of all monsters what to do."

Li couldn't help but pause, then waved his hand as if to shake it off, "This is a plan, don't mention it again before it's realized."

"Ah."

"But you're right, nature cannot be taken away, no matter how I think, I can't change this identity, so instead of sighing, I might as well try to solve it in other ways."

"Have you thought of a solution, boss?"

"Not yet, but I can always think of it." Li looked up and said, "As the smartest monster, as long as you are willing to think, I believe all problems will be solved."
