Near the forest live a fox brothers that cultivates themselves for a thousand years. That fox can transform into a human because of the cultivation. The older brother named himself Shan which means kind and benevolent, while the younger one named himself Mo, which means demon since he is smart but also sly. The two of them live in a small house. Everyday they always find food in the forest, sometimes they go to meet the human in the traditional market to buy the stuff they don’t found in the forest.
Once upon a time, Mo, the younger brothers went to the forest to hunt down some bird meat for their dinner. With his fox form he can easily climb up the tree. He go up and he found this tree was kinda unusual. When he arrived close to the top, he found a medium size hole in the tree trunk. He looks around and saw no one so he try to peek inside the hole. When he take a look inside, he found so many shiny stuff. But one thing for sure that took his eyes, the beautiful golden brush. For some reason he can feel something magical with this brush, he quickly took it with his mouth, and leave the hole. Outside the hole, a crow is already standing, staring at the fox.
Turn out that hole was a nest where the crow saving all his precious shiny stuff. When the fox took the golden brush the crow is hitting him with his beak. The crow is angry, but luckily, Mo can escape from the tree and go back to his house. However, when he go back to his house and transform back to human form, his hand got so many wound. Her brother Shan is worry.
“What happen with your arms? Why it has so many scars? Did you fall from the tree?” Ask Shan.
“No. A crow attack me.” Said Mo.
“What? How can? You are a fox, you supposed to attack the bird not the opposite.” Said Shan.
“I know. But look, I got a beautiful golden brush.” Said Mo, showing the golden brush to Shan.
“Aiyaaah, what we are eating for dinner then? The golden brush?” Ask Shan, shaking his head in disbelieve with his younger brother Mo.
“However brother, take a look at this brush, I sense a magical and mystical aura with this brush.” Said Mo, handing the brush over to Shan.
Shan trying to take a look at the golden brush and true, he sense a magical aura within this golden brush.
“I ever heard in the fairy realm, a known blacksmith fairy ever create a magical brush. They said that fairy closing his store for sometimes to find the legendary ingredients to create that magical brush. The size of the brush is said to be so big, strong, beautiful, with a hint of gold. Moreover, that brush is said can grant the owner any wish they want.” Said Mo.
“If that was true, then why don’t you try to draw a food for our dinner?” Ask Shan.
“Hm.. I wish I can draw or write, but I’m only a fox..” Said Mo.
“So do I..” Said Shan.
“How about we ask a human neighbor to draw some food for us? We can invite them here and pay them with some coins.” Said Mo.
Later, the fox brothers agree to invite their neighbor to draw for them. They invite a man as old as them to come and draw. The two brothers agree to ask him draw a living chicken and a pig using the golden brush. An few minutes later that man finished drawing, the brothers pay him some coins and he left the house happily.
The two brothers take out the drawing outside their house. There they become surprised and look at each other. The chicken and pig suddenly appear in front of him.
“Look! I thought so! This golden brush was so magical!” Said Mo.
“Amazing! Help me to the kitchen, we will cut and cook this pig for our dinner, and stock the chicken meat for tomorrow.” Said Shan.
“Ok Brother!” Said Mo.
Mo is coming to the kitchen helping his brother Shan. He put the golden brush to his pocket. Since that day on, they rarely hunting for food. If they crave some meat, they will just only call their neighbors to draw something and pay them with coins. However, they realize if they keep doing that, their money can run out.
“Mo, don’t you think if we keep drawing we will run out of money? We cannot go to human market anymore to buy some ingredients to cook.” Said Shan.
“I have an idea! Why don’t we pay them with our cooking! Or a meat?” Ask Mo.
“Will they want it?” Ask Shan.
“Of course they will! Trust me!” Said Mo.
The two agree to pay the drawer with the meat or food they cook. The drawer also feel thankfull and agree. However, this golden brush give them a negative effect. Because they can easily gain their food without need to hunt down again in the forest and after a big eating, they keep on sleeping.
Their body changes drastically, they become fat, their claw is not sharp because they never hunt anymore, and their life now is depend on that golden brush to live.
Oneday, a cat slip on their house while they are sleeping. Eating their leftover on the dining table. The cat found a golden brush on that table. Mo forget to put it on his pocket, because he already sleepy after eating, and just go to his room to rest after their dinner. That cat think the golden brush look so beautiful and took it away with him.
The next day, Mo is panic because his favorite golden brush is missing.
“We lost it! What do we do? We will be dying in hunger without that golden brush..” Said Mo.
“That’s okay Mo. Don’t blame yourself. We can still hunt animals in the forest when we are hungry.” Said Shan.
“But.. I feel like, it’s hard for us to hunt down food. Look at my fox appearance.” Said Mo, showing his fox transformation, which is a fat fox with a claw that’s not sharp.
“We should exercise a lot in the forest. Also, I think these days we are too dependable with that golden brush. Turns out it’s not good for our health too. We become a lazy fox.” Said Shan.
“Alright.. We should start exercise and becoming more healthy, so we can chase after the animals in the forest!” Said Mo.
“Yes that’s true!” Said Shan.
The two fox brothers then start on exercising every day. Every morning they run in the forest. Day by day, their appearance changes back to normal. They goes back to their normal life as a fox and human, and sometimes sell their hunting animals to the market to trade for some ingredients they need.

In other side the golden brush was stolen by the cat. The cat was not a stray cat. This cat was a house cat who has a beautiful owner. The owner of that cat was a young lady, who has a beautiful white long hair.
