Master of Ten Thousand Foxes-Chapter 217 - 142: Big and Small Eyes, Given a Chance to Prove Themselves!
On the tree branch, Big and Small Eyes stared at the spicy soup, staring at the pepper powder in the soup.
"Ying?"
Going back and forth, it increasingly felt that its sight could genuinely keep up with the movement of these pepper particles!
To be precise, it was its left eye with the White Eye Circle that could see clearly, could follow these particles! The right eye appeared equally hazy, unable to keep up at all.
The more it watched, the more entranced it became, watching ever more intently.
Suddenly...
"Ying ying ying!"
Next to it, Small and Big Eyes suddenly poked its shoulder.
"Ying ying ao ao!"
... Master said that the spicy soup should be eaten while hot!
"Ao?"
Big and Small Eyes nodded, quickly bringing the bowl closer to its mouth, and started drinking with a "Hula hula" motion. Not too cold, not too hot, spicy and appetizing, drinking to its heart's content!
...
After Small and Big Eyes left, Big and Small Eyes remained in the Deer Horn Ginkgo Garden, continuing its work.
The Deer Horn Ginkgo Trees were all immensely tall, with lush leaves, round white small fruits, and branches that spread out like deer antlers.
Big and Small Eyes' work was to jump between these branches and leaves, capturing the pests, "Ginkgo Flying Locusts."
Suddenly, amidst the "Whirring" sounds, a flying locust emerged from under the leaf, caught perfectly by Big and Small Eyes!
It didn't rush to pounce but instead used its eyes to watch the locust's wings.
Transparent wings vibrated at high speed, vibrated irregularly... but its left eye could truly see clearly!
Swish!
It flew forward, grabbed the locust, and caught hold of its body with its front paws.
Then, it furrowed its brows, widened its left eye, and leaned close to the insect.
"Ao ao ao!"
Fly fast! Vibrate fast!
Let Master Fox see clearly!
Yet the locust struggled desperately, wanting to escape, its wings vibrating faster and slower, finally breathing its last breath.
Big and Small Eyes threw away the uncooperative insect, furrowed its brow, pondered for a moment, and had another guess in its heart.
"Ying?"
It jumped down the tree with a "Swish" and emerged shortly after. In its claws was a cage woven from bamboo strips, borrowed from fellow disciples next door, an Insect Repair Cage produced by Fox Mountain!
"Ying ying ying."
It crooked its mouth into a smile, continuing to shuttle between the branches and leaves of the Deer Horn Ginkgo, continuing to catch insects. Whenever one was caught, it was thrown into this Insect Repair Cage.
Thus, while watching, it kept catching. By mid-afternoon, dozens of flying locusts "whirred" inside the insect repair cage, and its area of the garden was almost entirely clean of pests.
"Ao!"
It found a wide and comfortable tree branch, squatted down, holding the insect repair cage, its left eye with white fur around it, close to the cage, staring at the insects desperately flapping their wings inside!
Its eyes could truly see the vibrations of these transparent wings… and after watching more, it gradually experienced a feeling… it seemed it could grasp some kind of pattern and predict the short-term wing vibrations of the insects!
"Ying ying ying?"
Can it see a very short future?
It looked at the flapping insects in the cage again, then looked at the trembling ginkgo leaves in the wind for a long time.
It then looked at the small ginkgo fruits swaying on the branches for a long time.
With a serious expression, it raised one front paw, staring at its front paw for a long time.
When another strong wind blew, and the branches gently shook, it suddenly returned to its senses.
Its eyes shined with excitement.
"Ying ying ying!
"Ao ao ao!
"Ying ying ying!"
It jumped off the branch with a "Swish" and dashed towards the Bronze Hall.
It confirmed it was indeed a Sharpshooter!
It wanted to tell Master it wasn't a clown!
...
Inside the Bronze Hall.
Bai Mo sat behind the desk, fiddling with a potted plant.
It was a small chili pepper tree with small chili peppers, finger-sized chili peppers, hanging from the branches.
Next to it was a parasitic vine and a pile of bullets.
"... So, the principle of this parasite vine isn't about reading genetic information, right?
"It seems indeed to relate to shape?
"If so, could it be tricked..."
While Bai Mo was pondering, he suddenly heard footsteps.
"Ying ying ying!"
"Ao ao ao!"
"Ying ying ying!"
It was Big and Small Eyes, rushing all the way to the hall, coming to the desk, holding an insect repair bamboo cage in its front paws, pointing at the small insects inside, gesturing and calling excitedly.
"Ying ying ying, Ao ao ao!
"Ying ying ao ao ao!"
Bai Mo listened for a long time, understanding.
"You can predict a short future?"
Big and Small Eyes nodded frantically, stretching its neck, pointing at its left eye with white fur around it, widening its left eye for Master to see!
Bai Mo picked it up, let it lie in his arms, flipped its eyelids open, looked left and right, then used the Divine Sense to delve in, observing... still very healthy! Its nerve bundles and cone-shaped structures were indeed somewhat more developed. But not to the extent of being abnormal.
As for why it had some special ability... It's actually quite similar to Pang Youyou, Quanquan Hu, and the others, on the one hand, there are differences in individuals, and on the other hand, they have devoured too many heavenly treasures day by day!
Bai Mo rubbed its chubby belly.
"Very good, no problem!
"Being able to predict the short future definitely makes you a Sharpshooter seedling.
"We'll find an opportunity to prove yourself among your fellow disciples."
Big and Small Eyes squinted its eyes, grinning, rolled in Master's embrace, rubbed its head against Master.
"Ying ying ying."
Recognition by fellow disciples is important, but Master's acknowledgment is the most important!
...
The weather in West State City was getting hotter and hotter.
Bai Mo sat at the dining table, using his phone to remotely turn on the air conditioner.
"Hmm, twenty-six degrees, then.
"This broken air conditioner, it's starting to smell musty.
"I'll get a new one someday."
Just as he was about to open the delivery app to order another cup of milk tea, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
Knock, knock, knock!
Who could it be?
Bai Mo got up to open the door, only to see it was the grandmother from upstairs again. This time her face lacked a smile and instead carried a trace of worry.
"Hey? Granny, what's wrong? Xiaobao still doesn't seem to be doing well?"
The upstairs granny hurriedly waved her hand and laughed as she talked about Xiaobao.
"Quite well! Quite well indeed, hahaha.
"I don't know what's been going on these past few days, but his complexion is getting better day by day. We went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said the illness he was born with inexplicably got better. Hehehe, Xiaobao's blessed!
"Oh, and he grabbed your pen during the grab-celebration!"
Bai Mo nodded with a smile and chatted a bit more.
But then the upstairs granny changed the topic, pointing at Bai Mo's recently installed security door.
"Xiaomo, the new security door you got, it seems pretty good?
"Where did you get it? How much did it cost?
"I'd like to get one too."
Huh?
How much?
Bai Mo genuinely didn't know.
"Why on earth would you want to change the security door?"
The upstairs granny sighed.
"My daughter-in-law, Xiaobao's mom, always feels that our Xiaobao is being watched by bad people. She's constantly having nightmares, can't eat, and is losing hair. She's feeling terrible every day.
"The security door at home is old, so I thought, why not get a new one to give her some peace of mind.
"Honestly, Xiaomo, do you think this is... postpartum depression?
"Should she go see a doctor?"
While chatting, Bai Mo's divine sense silently extended like invisible antennas upstairs, and after probing Xiaobao's mother... found nothing unusual. Her body was normal, and her spirit was normal too.
Exchanging a few more pleasantries with the upstairs granny and sending her off, Bai Mo shut the door and sat back at the dining table.
A guess took shape in his mind.
"Could it be that her spiritual sense has been triggered?"
Even ordinary people have spiritual sense, it's just that their minds are clouded, making it particularly dull, equivalent to not having it.
Could Xiaobao's mom have sensed danger to her child, with her spiritual sense going wild and breaking through a layer of dust on her mind, manifesting such anomalies outwardly?
Bai Mo furrowed his brow.
"What danger could Xiaobao possibly be in?
"Last time the kidnapper was caught.
"Can it be that he'd be kidnapped again?
"Seems unlikely, right?
"Why would a kidnapper be so obsessed with Xiaobao?
"He's not a golden child or anything."
Bai Mo had used divine sense to probe before, and he knew very well, Xiaobao was just an ordinary child.
Thinking along these lines, Bai Mo furrowed his brow, intending to call Zhang Shan and inquire.
Then, at this moment, he saw through his window the side entrance of the neighborhood, where a sneaky figure, burly and agile, clad in inconspicuous sportswear and a face-covering mask, snuck in.
"Huh?"
Bai Mo happened to know that in this direction facing his window, including the side entrance of the neighborhood and the small path below, there were no surveillance cameras, or it was a camera blind spot. If someone came through the side entrance, walked along the path, and then climbed the wall, it would perfectly avoid surveillance!
"Could it really be another child-kidnapper, back again?
"Is Xiaobao really being targeted? What's going on?"
He was puzzled when he heard a loud bang.
Bam!
It was a gunshot from the rooftop, echoing through the entire neighborhood.
The tiles below the thug's feet splintered on impact, turning to dust!
From upstairs came the faint sound of a baby crying, apparently Xiao Bao was frightened by the gunfire!
...
On the rooftop, the Celestial Platform.
Fatty Squad Leader and Ren Zhenzhen were positioned with two sniper rifles, aiming at the approaching thug.
"This time we shoot directly!"
These sniper rifles were brand new weapons issued by the Committee.
Using bullet-length ammunition, with extremely fast trajectory speed and immense power, capable of causing considerable damage to Sequence Nine.
"After all, they're Bloodthirsty, armed with Immortal Techniques, as long as it's not a headshot, it's not that easy to kill them.
"Don't let him get close to this residential building!"
Bam!
Bam!
Bam!
The two fired successively, shaking the old neighborhood's glass with resounding noise.
But the Bloodthirsty convict downstairs had already turned, dodging bullets with frenzied agility, his spiritual sense extremely keen, weaving around one bullet after another!
Each tile beneath his foot shattered under the impact of bullets, yet failed to stop his fleeing steps!
Fatty Squad Leader and Ren Zhenzhen grew anxious, firing rapidly again and again.
Bam!
Bam!
They both understood, despite being Bloodthirsty, the Immortal Martial Path granted strong physical abilities and keen spiritual sense, making them hard to hit.
But right as the Bloodthirsty criminal was about to squeeze into the side entrance, set to leave the shooting area under the cover of the neighborhood wall!
"Hit him already!"
Ren Zhenzhen grabbed her sniper rifle, even foregoing the scope, firing purely on instinct at the silhouette darting into the side entrance.
Bam!
...
Fourth floor.
A white mist rose beneath Bai Mo's feet, from which Small and Big Eyes emerged.
This brat clutched a gun, wagging its tail, looking up expectantly at its master.
Only to see his master point out the window, directing at the thug's shadow darting into the side entrance, opening a crack in the window.
"Here's your chance to prove yourself!
"Stop him!"
