The daily life of the crew of "Beasts".

Chapter 312 Eating shit makes you stronger!

Back in the village,

The fat man who had successfully passed the interview stared longingly at Puss in Boots, his one big, watery eye blinking, looking both eerie and a little cute!

It's like... that kind of ugly-cute feeling.

"Director, the film crew's recruitment notice included room and board—"

"I know that, you don't need to stare at me like that." Puss in Boots couldn't help but wipe away a bead of cold sweat.

If it were any of the other incredibly cute mythical creatures in the crew, she'd be completely smitten and her heart would flutter. But this one… well, let's just say it's hard to describe…

It's not that they're not cute, it's just... weird? They're a bit goosebumpy.

"Alright, alright, I'll take you to your accommodation." Puss in Boots emerged from behind the desk and led Fatty out of the interview room.

The film crew rented a number of houses in Caiyun Village as dormitories for some of the staff.

The conditions weren't terrible, but they weren't great either. So many of the crew members chose to find their own places to stay. Even if they couldn't afford it, they could find a nice cave in the mountains.

After dropping the newlyweds off at their lodgings, Puss in Boots turned and headed towards the village chief's house.

She already had a rough idea of ​​the upcoming plot outline. In addition to the new characters, it was time for the old characters to have some new roles to play. But first, she needed to check on their situation.

"—Knock knock knock." Puss in Boots knocked on the gate of the yard.

"Coming, coming. Who is it? Looking for an old man like me at this hour?" The iron gate creaked open, and the old goat's white-browed, white-bearded face peeked out.

"Oh, it's Puss in Boots. What brings you here?" he asked in surprise.

"Let me take a look at Optimus Prime. I need to ask him what he's capable of in the upcoming plot." Puss in Boots nodded politely.

The old goat had no objection upon hearing this. He stroked his beard and stepped aside. Puss in Boots took two steps into the yard and found a large tree with swaying branches.

……

"What?! You want Tree Tree to really go to the Underworld with roots in the sky?!" The Sky-Supporting Tree was so shocked that its leaves fell off!

He stared blankly at the serious-looking black cat in front of him, the leaves on its head falling with the shaking of the tree canopy, like brain cells dying from frantic activity!

"Although this is my dream, I really don't have the ability right now! How about I try to grow a precious jade first?"

Puss in Boots awkwardly raised his paw to stop him from saying anything more, "Ahem, there's no need to exaggerate like that, as long as you're tall enough, that's fine."

"The rest can be adjusted through post-production and camera angles, of course, if we can do it the best we can."

The towering tree was speechless with professional shock. "If a tree could do that, it should be in the mountains, not planted here."

--etc.

He suddenly paused, a brilliant idea flashing through his mind. His eyes, which had been gleaming with golden light, widened abruptly, and his red lips parted: "Oh! Since you want the tree to grow up quickly, then help the tree get more fertilizer!"

"Fertilizer?" Puss in Boots was taken aback.

She knew what kind of fertilizer the other party was referring to; the mythical beasts had complained about it more than once when they got together to chat.

Every time I visit Old Goat's house, I feel a chill down my spine, as if a tree is always watching me, and its roots might break through the soil at any moment to steal the farmyard manure from me!

Puss in Boots silently imagined himself asking the mythical creatures for manure, and instantly felt his paws digging into the ground, unable to look directly at it!

What kind of ultimate social death is this?!

"Hey! Old man, have I ever mistreated you? You want to turn my yard into a cesspool!" Before Puss in Boots could speak, the old goat slammed his cane down in annoyance!

The Sky-Piercing Tree hurriedly said, "Tree Tree didn't mean that, Little Sheep, don't be angry! Hey, Tree Tree won't leave a smell after absorbing it!"

Puss in Boots argued with the tree and the sheep for a long time, and finally the argument ended with Optimus Prime being forced to fertilize and clean up outside before returning.

—I haven't even agreed yet, how come you've already tacitly agreed?

Puss in Boots inwardly scoffed, but when Optimus Prime looked over, she hesitated for a moment before nodding: "Alright, I'll go ask..."

After leaving the yard, Puss in Boots walked along the country dirt road, lost in thought as he went.

—Whose house should I ask first? Hmm…

The sun slowly wandered to the west, and the school bell rang in the afternoon, its melodious sound like heavenly music.

When a group of mythical beast friends arrived at the door, they saw a group of students with backpacks surrounding Tianlu.

"Are you really here to pick up your little brother? You don't look like an older brother at all, you're clearly just a little kid." A boy with a backpack slung over one shoulder squatted down and stared at Tianlu, who was not even as tall as his calves.

"I am the older brother! This is how I looked when I was a child. I don't change my original form because I'm afraid I'll scare you!"

Tianlu strained to raise its head, its neck stiff, and took two steps back. Its emerald green eyes stared at the other side with displeasure as it wagged its tail.

A girl behind him followed the tip of his tail back and forth with her gaze, and couldn't help but reach out and grab it. "Oh! So cute, and it feels so good."

"Hey, what are you doing! Don't touch me!"

"It doesn't seem to bite?"

"After all, he's the older brother who came to pick up his brother, so he probably won't bite anyone."

"Can I touch it?"

"I want to touch it too, it's so cute!"

"Aaaaaah, don't come any closer! I'll eat you all!"

Tianlu screamed as a group of excited girls ravaged him, his pink paws struggling and flailing helplessly outside!

A group of friends nearby were stunned. Tianlu, who had overpowered them with force, had been bullied like this? And this time it wasn't like the skin-scratching competition; they didn't even get paid!

Qiong Xiaoqi was the first to come to his senses and patted Bai Jie on the shoulder: "Hey bro, does your family all like this kind of thing? You don't really fight back when you get bullied."

"If you really like playing like this, my brothers and I can do it all for you."

At this point, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he became eager to try. He couldn't miss the chance to trample the Pixiu, which he usually couldn't afford to offend, even if it was the Pixiu's own choice.

"How about it? Want us brothers to give it a try? We can even pretend to be villains. It's a bit weird to play like that, but we're brothers anyway, so I'm open to playing along!"

Taotie, with its little peach on its head, took two steps back and stared at him speechlessly: "Actually, you can't afford to offend them and just want to take the opportunity to have some fun, right?"

Bai Jie snapped out of his daze and shook his head sharply, denying it outright: "No, don't talk nonsense, it's just that it's not convenient to take action!"

Now, under the influence of the three good-tempered creatures, Baijie, Sibuxiang, and Qishiqi, the two irritable furballs, Tianlu and Bixie, have become much more peaceful.

Well... sometimes you might get taken advantage of outside because you don't fight back...

"Hey? You guys are that puppy's brothers?" The boy who had been talking to Tianlu earlier was awkwardly pushed aside by a group of girls.

He activated his two calming techniques, looked up and saw a group of mythical beasts gathered together nearby, his gaze immediately locking onto two Pixiu.

"You're the dog! I'm not a dog! I'm a Pixiu, a Pixiu!"

The person behind you suddenly unleashes a furious roar, as if Tianlu has broken through your defenses, and then Pixiu's second brother's face is distorted by a hand reaching out and pinching it. In the blink of an eye, all his prestige vanishes.

"Aaaaaah! Let me go!"

"Uh... this..." The boy hesitated for a moment, then looked strangely at the silent group of mythical beasts: "Are you all like this? Do you like... acting cute?"

Bai Jie was so embarrassed he couldn't help but laugh. He covered his face with one paw, turned his head away, and after a couple of throat movements, forced out a sentence:

"Don't look at me, I don't know either."

Seventy-seven was slightly stunned. His gray eyes darted between Bai Jie and the boy. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly raised his paw:

"I know, because—mmm!"

Bai Jie reacted quickly, covering his mouth with her hand, her voice instinctively lowering and changing into a hurried tone: "What are you doing? What did you suddenly want to say?"

Seventy-Seven's big eyes darted around, and she lifted her paw to pull away the paw covering her mouth, opening her small mouth to answer, "I want to participate in your conversations and matters."

Bai Jie: "..."

—Kid, you're going a bit too far. I know you want to fit in, but you don't have to do it in such a scary way!

……

When the Four-Faced Beasts arrived, the Great Qilin exerted tremendous effort and was also taken advantage of quite a bit before finally rescuing Little Blue Circle from a group of girls with sparkling eyes.

Without hesitation, the family boarded auspicious clouds and fled, avoiding the crowd that surrounded them again.

In mid-air,

Bai Jie sat atop the back of the Four-Unlikes, his eyes squinting as the oncoming gale swept across his face, the fur on his cheeks and forehead flying as he looked at Tian Lu:

"Tianlu, what have you been doing all afternoon?"

At noon, Tianlu ran to the school to deliver lunch to them, and then when the bell rang, he disappeared. When he came back, Baiyun was gone too.

Tianlu turned around at the sound, and his face fell again at the mention of this: "I went to play on the food street in the city, but I was abandoned and ran away!"

"You made me come back here, and you almost petted me bald!" He stomped his paws angrily, his little mouth pouting with displeasure.

……

When we got home,

Tianlu immediately wanted to run off to settle accounts, but before they could find their two mounts, which had disappeared again, a black cat came to visit them first.
