After several days of treatment, many members of the Wei family saw positive results. The current person in charge, Wei Mingyan’s uncle, transferred a large sum of money to An Rugu’s account.

Once all the gu worms were dealt with, the remaining payment would be made. It wasn’t that they didn’t want to pay, but the previously agreed-upon half of their assets was too large and needed to be gradually inventoried and converted into working capital.

An Rugu opened the crowdfunding app, focusing on those seeking help with photos.

“My son has acute leukemia. Please help me.”

An Rugu didn’t do any calculations. She glanced at his face and immediately reported him. His family was wealthy and he was far from being destitute. How could he have the nerve to crowdfund?

“My little angel is suffering from lymphoma. He has exhausted all his energy in three years. Uncles and aunts, please help me.”

She selected some kind-hearted people who genuinely needed money and donated it to them. Previously, she had donated relatively small amounts, but now she donated the full amount.

Left-behind children, elderly people living alone, free luncheons, serious illnesses, and educational assistance… She donated to various platforms almost every month and had become a well-known philanthropist on many platforms.

She considered asking someone to handle it for her, but she was always worried that the money wouldn’t reach the people in need if she didn’t make the judgment herself, so she decided to do it herself.

After she donated the money, her pockets were immediately empty. Taking advantage of her free time, she went down the mountain to visit the Yaoguai House.

As the saying goes, after the founding of the People’s Republic of China, it was forbidden for yaoguai to become spirits. The most glorious time for yaoguai was in ancient times, when many stories about fox spirits and scholars were bestsellers.

The Yaoguai House was decorated in an ancient style and surrounded by a large area of ​​green bamboo. When a breeze blew, it made a rustling sound, and the fresh bamboo fragrance filled the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.

An Rugu inhaled the fragrance of the grass and trees, calmed her mind, and immediately felt a sense of peace. She then stepped into the Yaoguai House.

As soon as she stepped inside, she heard a commotion, and the original tranquility she had completely destroyed.

“Ahhhh, the little fox is so cute, and it can even watch TV!”

She looked up and saw a little red fox sitting in front of the TV in the living room on the first floor, hugging its fluffy tail and staring at the TV with its round eyes not moving.

The professor’s melodious voice came from the television: “With one stroke of Fuxi, heaven and earth were created, and from this came yin and yang and the five elements…”

He watched intently, nodding occasionally as the professor spoke, completely ignoring the voices of the other guests.

He was a wild fox from the mountains, with no one to teach him how to cultivate his skills, so his foundation was weak. Now he wanted to rebuild his foundation, so he studied day and night, absorbing knowledge like a sponge.

He didn’t interact with the guests; his mere presence, sitting upright, was incredibly exciting. Many people took out their phones, snapping photos of the little fox and uploading them to social media.

“Damn, this little fox is practically a spirit! It’s as well-behaved as a child, and so serious too.”

“What’s said online is true; the fox the streamer raises is different from ordinary foxes.”

“Hurry up and send him to school, don’t delay his college entrance exam.”

When the weasel wearing the short jacket saw An Rugu arrive, he walked up to her, bowed to her, and then turned and walked towards the room.

An Rugu followed him into the tea room.

Seeing that there were no customers around, the weasel said embarrassedly, “They are so enthusiastic. They take pictures with that box every day. I heard them say that the fox has become famous for something.”

“Internet celebrity?”

“Yes, this is it,” The weasel nodded in agreement.

An Rugu picked up her phone and tried searching for ‘Little Fox of Cloud Rise Temple’. Immediately, many silly photos popped up. He was small and cute, with fur as red as flames and an incredibly lively expression.

Many netizens said he had become a spirit, and many people asked for his address, wanting to come and worship the fox spirit.

Below that were photos of the Weasel. The Weasel’s fur wasn’t as eye-catching as the Fox’s, but he wore a little jacket and a melon-shaped hat, and he even raised his hand in a gesture of blessing to people.

Many people were frantically calling for the Weasel’s blessing.

As if remembering something, the Weasel rubbed his little hands together and said somewhat embarrassedly, “A woman came before and gave me her snake, asking me to teach it how to cultivate.

“So I taught it how to breathe in spiritual energy; whether it understood or not, I don’t know. After I charged her the entrance fee, she even gave me a small tip.”

An Rugu suddenly realized something. During a previous livestream, someone’s house was haunted, and the little snake helped remove accumulating the yin energy. That little snake possessed some spirituality and could potentially embark on the path of cultivation. She had asked her to bring the little snake here, and sure enough, she came.

The Weasel added, “A few days ago, some people watched my benefactor’s livestream and came here specifically to give me their cats and dogs so I could teach them. The results have been good. They said they would recommend us to their friends.

“Because this is a special service, after I transformed into human form, I gave them a piece of paper, which was a new price list. From now on, training cats and dogs will cost extra.”

The Weasel, having mastered the art of healing, was now a household spirit and could communicate easily with small animals. This has greatly reduced the destructive behavior of those small animals in the house.

He thought that as the manager of the Yaoguai House, he couldn’t let An Rugu down and had to run the Yaoguai House well, so he took the initiative to offer additional services.

His tone was somewhat uneasy, worried that An Rugu might think he had made the decision on his own.

An Rugu nodded and praised him, “You did a great job.”

She originally just wanted to open this place as a cat cafe, but by chance, a new business came along.

Upon hearing this, the Weasel was extremely excited; An Rugu could practically see the word ‘happy’ on his furry face.
