After they made a few gestures there, I understood that they were afraid I might get sick. Before I could say anything, the group of little mice scurried over to me and lay on top of me to keep me warm.
I watched these little lumps of flesh with amusement. Not to mention my own warmth, I was more worried about freezing them...
Just by looking at how Old Immortal Hui had been carrying them on a carrying pole, I knew how fond he was of these youngsters; if they caught a chill, Old Immortal Hui would be heartbroken.
I tickled their little bellies with my finger, and a bunch of little mice wiggled their chubby butts and made cooing sounds as if they were being coy, which was incredibly cute.
Other people might be repulsed by animals like mice or snakes, but I hold a particular fondness for them.
In this world, there are no inherently evil animals. If one were to pick one, it would be humans.
The fact that they don't mind me is good enough.
