Chapter 297 Trimming Claws and Fur



Chapter 297 Trimming Claws and Fur

After leaving Haochen's place, Tianlu was about to go catch loaches with Walnut, but he received a call from the Four-Unlikes, asking him and Walnut to go home.

Because the four-legged creature sounded anxious on the phone, Tianlu immediately thought something had happened at home, so he hurriedly took the walnuts and went home.

"Hey, I'm back! What happened at home?"

As soon as Tianlu finished speaking, he noticed that in addition to the Four-Faced Beast and Rabbit God, there were also Zhanhu and Oleander in the room.

The rabbit even had a pair of scissors in its paw. Tianlu couldn't help but wonder if this strange creature had gone crazy again and was thinking of cutting off its fur to sell for money.

"Pipi's back! We've been waiting for you. Come and line up!" The Four-Faced Beast called to Tianlu and told him to sit down in a chair.

Now Tianlu was even more certain of his guess, and he took several steps back in fright, putting on a fierce look for the Qilin.

"Awoo~ You won't be able to make money with my fur this time, you four-legged creature."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The four-legged creature rubbed its forehead speechlessly and explained, "Pipi, have you forgotten? Today is the monthly claw trimming day. Your claws haven't been trimmed for a month. Don't you see how long they've grown?"

Upon hearing this, Tianlu remembered that ever since he came to the deer man's shop, the four-legged creature had been trimming his claws and fur every month.

After all, even though they are mythical beasts, their claws and fur still need to be trimmed regularly.

Otherwise, if the claw hair is too long, it will affect his running and hunting, and it will also easily harbor dirt and breed bacteria.

"Alright, come and sit down."

Since the four-legged creature spoke, Tianlu had no choice but to obediently jump onto the chair.

When Rabbit Lord saw that Tianlu was ready, he was about to start trimming his claws when Haochen happened to come back and witnessed the scene.

So, Hao Chen shamelessly took over Rabbit's job, which made Zhan Hu frown.

He knew perfectly well what Hao Chen was up to; he just wanted to take the opportunity to provoke Tianlu and the others and have some fun with them.

However, Zhanhu couldn't say it directly. Like Haochen, he hadn't figured out how to explain his relationship with Haochen to the Four-Unlikes Rabbit and the others.

After all, he and Haochen were just friends one moment, but their relationship changed the next. What could he say about that?

Zhan Hu glared at Hao Chen secretly, determined to show Hao Chen tonight that Zhan Hu also had a temper.

Hao Chen was unaware of Zhan Hu's thoughts; he was currently captivated by the room full of fluffy creatures.

"Tianlu, quickly show me your claws, or rather, let me touch them."

"Like this?" Tianlu squatted on the chair and stretched out its two front paws in front of Haochen.

Watching Haochen keep pinching his paw pads, Tianlu felt his paws itchy and couldn't help but laugh: "Haochen, stop pinching, it tickles!"

"Touch~"

When the four-legged creature saw that Hao Chen had agreed to trim their claws instead of Rabbit Lord, but was only focused on playing with Tianlu's paw pads, it couldn't help but tap Hao Chen on the head: "Alright, Hao Chen, if you don't want to trim them, let Rabbit Lord do it."

"Okay, I'll cut it right away."

Having been reprimanded, Hao Chen became obedient and quickly began trimming the hair on Tian Lu's front paws.

shhhhhh...

"Alright, Tianlu, it's time to trim the fur on your hind paws. Stretch your legs, straighten them!"

"Don't pull Haochen, I can straighten myself."

As Hao Chen's scissors cut through Tian Lu's paw pads, Tian Lu's claw hairs flew everywhere and fell continuously.

Before long, a brand new Tianlu appeared before everyone.

Tianlu stretched out its paws to show off its clean paw pads, looking refreshed, and said, "Ha! All the fur is gone! Now I won't fall off when making sharp turns!"

But Rabbit Lord, standing behind Tianlu, didn't care about any of this. Seeing that Tianlu still wouldn't move aside, he urged Tianlu, "Pipi, hurry up and get down after you're done cutting your hair. Can't you see there's a line behind you?"

With Tianlu gone, Haochen welcomed the next fluffy creature.

The rabbit sat on the chair and stretched out its paw: "Help me cut it shorter."

"OK!" Hao Chen replied and started working.

Compared to the bouncy paw pads of Tianlu, Rabbit's paws are softer and have a unique feel to them.

However, considering that the four-legged creature was watching from the side, Hao Chen didn't dare to slack off and could only pinch the rabbit's paw pads a few times.

Fortunately, Rabbit Lord knew about Hao Chen's quirks and didn't say anything.

Soon the rabbit's paw pads were trimmed, and next it was the tiger's turn.

However, Hao Chen looked at Zhan Hu's oversized furry paw pads, licked his lips, and then said, "Zhan Hu, you and Oleander, move aside for now. I'll trim your fur tonight."

Upon hearing this, Zhan Hu immediately became dissatisfied. Why could Hao Chen help the other animals shear their fur now, while he and Oleander had to wait until evening?

Just as Zhan Hu was about to say something, Hao Chen's voice rang in his mind.

Then, something Hao Chen said to Zhan Hu was unknown, but Zhan Hu's anger instantly dissipated, and he happily left with Oleander.

"Why did Godfather and Uncle leave? Aren't they going to cut it?" Walnut was full of questions.

As Rabbit Lord watched Zhan Hu hop away, he glanced thoughtfully at Hao Chen.

Hao Chen happened to turn around and met Rabbit's gaze. He immediately turned to Walnut guiltily and said, "Ahem, who's next? Walnut, it's your turn."

When Walnut heard someone call his name, he subconsciously looked ahead and realized that it was his turn to have his claws trimmed without him noticing.

Seeing that Walnut wasn't moving, Hao Chen had an idea and moved Walnut to a chair: "Walnut, sit down quickly, let me see your claws."

However, as soon as Haochen grabbed Walnut's paw, before he could even make a move, Walnut displayed a feline stress response, struggling wildly: "I don't want to cut it, help, help, meow!"

When Rabbit saw Walnut making a fuss, he skillfully stepped forward to help Hao Chen hold Walnut down: "It'll be done in two minutes, it won't hurt... Ouch, don't kick it!"

Even with Rabbit Lord's persuasion, Walnut still refused to cooperate, which angered Hao Chen so much that he threatened, "Walnut, if you don't listen to me, I'll have the Four-Faced Beast send you to the Flower Bird's place to lay eggs."

"Mwah! No, Walnut is super obedient."

The Flower Bird is an insurmountable obstacle in Walnut's heart. Whenever Walnut hears the Flower Bird, he instantly becomes the most obedient child in the entire Deer Man Shop.

Under the threat of the Flower Bird, Walnut had no choice but to obey, which made things much easier for Hao Chen and Rabbit Lord.

As is customary, when Haochen was cracking open the walnuts, he would casually rub them together, which made Rabbit roll his eyes at Haochen: "Haochen, can't you be a little more restrained? The walnuts are still children."

Hao Chen rolled his eyes at Rabbit Lord: "Otherwise what? Should I take you?"

Upon hearing this, Rabbit immediately shut up. What nonsense was Hao Chen spouting? The only one who could possibly mess with him was his Fourth Prince.

After walnuts, it was time to trim the claws and fur of the four-legged creature.

The four-legged creature stepped forward and stretched out its claws: "It's troublesome to cut it shorter."

However, just as Hao Chen was about to make a move, Rabbit grabbed Hao Chen's paw and said, "Wait, let me do this."

Hao Chen knew that Rabbit Lord had a crush on the Four-Faced Beast, so he took the initiative to give it to Rabbit Lord, since Rabbit Lord was the one who supported the whole family of the Deer Man Shop.

"Hey, let's hold hands."

Touching the paws of the strange creature, Rabbit God was in a daze, and who knows what he was imagining.

The four-legged creature is extremely ticklish, and its claws are particularly sensitive.

As Rabbit grabbed his paw, the Four-Faced Beast noticed that Rabbit was intentionally or unintentionally scratching his paw pads, which made the Four-Faced Beast's body tremble uncontrollably, and it kept laughing.

Hahaha……

puff

So much so that, by accident, the scissors cut directly into the paw pad of the four-legged creature, creating an opening on the spot.

Rabbit Lord panicked; he hadn't expected to accidentally injure the Four-Faced Beast.

Seeing the bleeding paw pads of the four-legged creature, Rabbit Lord didn't first look for bandages to stop the bleeding, but instead grabbed the four-legged creature's paw and put it in his mouth.

"..." The four-legged creature resisted the urge to kick the rabbit and pulled its paws out of the rabbit's mouth.

Looking at the wet paws, the four-legged creature's mouth twitched. It thought to itself, "This rabbit guy, instead of finding something to stop the bleeding, is just playing with his paws."

Hao Chen hadn't expected that Rabbit Lord was also a rabbit with a strong personality, and silently gave Rabbit Lord a thumbs up in his heart.

Then Hao Chen waved his claw, and the Qilin felt that its claw no longer hurt, and couldn't help but look at Hao Chen gratefully.

Then the four-legged creature picked up the scissors that had fallen to the ground and walked towards the rabbit with a displeased expression.

As Rabbit Lord watched the four-legged creature approach him, a sense of foreboding immediately arose in his heart.

However, with the four unlike creatures in front and Hao Chen blocking his way from behind, Rabbit Lord had no way to escape.

Soon, the Rabbit God, who had received the new skin, was displayed by the Qilin (a mythical creature) hanging in the air.

"Haha, bald rabbit!" Tianlu circled around Rabbit God, admiring with great interest Rabbit God's ears, which had been clipped clean by the four-legged creature.

Rabbit Lord glared at Tianlu with displeasure: "What are you looking at? Get lost!"

After trimming Tianlu and the others' claws, Haochen offered to clean up.

The four-legged creature watched as Hao Chen separated Tianlu, Walnut, Rabbit Lord, and his claws and put them into a bag, and couldn't help but wonder what Hao Chen was collecting their claws and hair for.

Seeing the strange creature's confusion, Hao Chen didn't hide anything from him and explained, "We're collecting them to make some small things, and then we can sell them to humans to earn some pocket money."

"Ah..." The four-legged creature never expected that Hao Chen had such an idea. No wonder it took the initiative to take on the cleaning work.

After thinking for a moment, the four-legged creature said to Hao Chen, "Give me some, and don't forget there's a share for me too."

"Got it." Hao Chen waved his paw, not caring at all. Anyway, the four-legged creature didn't say how much it would take. How much money it made and how it was divided up was up to him.
