The fox is a strange beast that exists in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Before the spiritual energy revived, it was difficult for all things to become spirits or monsters.
Most of the spirits and monsters disappeared. Some abandoned the human world and existed in a cave world similar to Qingqiu Kingdom, while others died directly. Hu Ming did not expect that when he went out to visit his friends, he would actually see a great monster from the Qin and Han Dynasties and a mountain and sea beast in a city.
As for Zhang Ruosu's name, this Qingqiu fox who was immersed in books did not care too much.
The fox's black tail stood up high and quietly observed this human.
Very ordinary, it does not seem to have a particularly high level of cultivation, and there is no way to compare with Zhang Ruosu.
But among the Taoists of the same age as him, he is already powerful.
Of course, such cultivation is enough to protect oneself when facing ordinary monsters, but it is too difficult to deal with big monsters like Shanjun and Burch. No wonder Zhang Ruosu sent himself here. The black cat thought about it, jumped to the wall next to him, looked down at the young man, and said arrogantly:
"Little guy, I will protect your safety."
"But don't think of me as an ordinary cat."
"According to human calculations, I am much bigger and more noble than you."
"Prepare your daily diet. I only eat fish raised in the dragon and tiger pond in the back mountain of Tianshi Mansion. I drink dew on plum blossoms. In addition, I don't like humans to touch me, don't tease me with things, and it's best not to have those furry puppies with tongues sticking out appear next to me. Do you understand?"
The black cat expressed his request concisely.
If cats are proud and self-centered creatures, then the cats that rank at the top among civet cats are undoubtedly the best among them.
Suddenly,
A white hand gently landed on its neck, and then lifted up the five-hundred-year-old beast. Lei was furious, turned his head, and then his whole body stiffened into a cat stick, lifted in the air, with his limbs and tail hanging down.
The girl, wearing a slightly larger shirt, black trousers, and white sneakers, held the cat in her arms and said in surprise: "Lei? There are still such cats in this era."
The goddess was surrounded by a breeze and landed next to Wei Yuan.
The girl reached out and stroked Lei, and the black cat instinctively kept breathing, but still did not dare to move.
Wei Yuan asked curiously, "Like?"
The goddess hummed and answered:
"It is a cat from ancient times, skilled in the magic of yin and yang. People who raise it will not be jealous of others. There is another kind of spirit cat, which can be raised without worries, but the writer deliberately exaggerated it. It is not a magic power, but because it is too cute, people will focus on playing with cats and not think about anything else."
"Yuan, do you want to try it?"
The black Lei stared at Wei Yuan with eyes and breathed.
The Si Li officer looked at the goddess' eyes to confirm that the other party was seriously recommending.
He looked at the black cat that was threatening.
After thinking about it, he shook his head and said with a smile: "Since this black cat doesn't want to, forget it."
As soon as the voice fell, the black cat licked its paws and said in a voice transmission: "You are a young man with good eyesight."
Wei Yuan paused and raised his eyebrows.
Lei suddenly felt something was wrong.
Wei Yuan smiled and put away the sword, stretched out his two hands, and pressed the cat's head.
The black cat was shocked and stopped licking its paws.
If you don't accept my toast, you'll have to drink a penalty.
I'll rub it!
............
Soon, the water ghost and the sword ghost that had just set up the ghost wall to prevent ordinary people from approaching came back and flew into Wei Yuan's palm.
With the three thousand year soul nurturing wood in the museum, their abilities have been greatly improved.
With the help of the ghost exorcism magic, they can move in the sun and set up the ghost wall illusion for a short time.
Wei Yuan naturally took the black cat from the goddess and held the five hundred year old beast in his arms. The latter wanted to claw back, but was afraid of the girl with the Kunlun aura, so he could only curl up obediently.
Wei Yuan called Zhang Hao and told him about the matter.
After hearing that the culprit of the situation had been killed by Wei Yuan's sword, Zhang Hao was obviously relieved.
After visiting and thanking him, he continued to deal with the current troubles.
Zhou Yi and Xuan Yi were not members of the Quanshi Action Team.
After the missing case they were responsible for was over, they received a newer task and left here.
During this time, Wei Yuan also contacted Zhang Hao and Shen Jifeng.
After that, he cleaned up the traces left in this place and temporarily sent the injured Qingqiu Fox to a hotel. After all, the other party was a monster, and it was difficult for human hospitals to treat injuries such as mana backlash for fox spirits. Moreover, he was unwilling to go to the hospital for treatment. Perhaps he was worried that in the face of modern technology, his bones as a fox demon would reveal something.
When leaving, Wei Yuan turned around and took a look at the place where he had fought.
The speed of spiritual energy recovery is getting faster and faster. Will the appearance of monsters become more and more frequent in the future?
Will it also be necessary to hold the Grand Nuo Dajiao ceremony of the entire Shenzhou level every year like during the Qin and Han Dynasties?
He thought of the news he had seen before, which should have happened a few days ago. The resentful souls from the New World came to Shenzhou, so the several shrines closed by Sakurajima should not be that simple.
I hope it won't appear in Shenzhou.
Convenient transportation can sometimes be a big problem.
.........…
The hotel's high-end custom-made room.
The old vixen lay on the bed, sighing.
He was already injured, but now it was worse, and he suffered another disaster. He was hit by the evil spirit. Wei Yuan's Crouching Tiger Technique was not good at healing ghosts and monsters. It was the goddess who injected a stream of clear air to stabilize his injuries, but it could only maintain this state.
"Qingqiu foxes are creatures that live in the country of Qingqiu."
"Their physiques are slightly different from those of creatures outside. We have to go to Qingqiu to get the elixirs we need to treat our injuries."
The black cat jumped on the cabinet in the room, licked its paws slowly, and added:
"But judging from the current state of this fox, I guess there is no way it can return to Qingqiu."
Hu Ming's face became even more bitter. He looked at Wei Yuan and the goddess, and bowed helplessly, saying, "I promised you that if you two go to Qingqiu, I will entertain you, but now I may have to break my promise. Maybe I have to trouble you two to help go to Qingqiu and tell my relatives to let my third uncle bring the elixirs to heal my injuries."
"Go alone?"
The goddess was a little surprised. Seeing Wei Yuan's puzzled look, she was relieved. Shi Dao:
"Qingqiu is outside the human world, north of Chaoyang Valley, and Chaoyang Valley is the residence of the water god Wu."
"In ancient times, there were two leaders of Qingqiu. One was a nine-tailed fox. Dayu met a nine-tailed fox of his generation in front of Tushan and married him. The other was the ancient god Shebisi. The first generation of nine-tailed foxes always lived close to Shebisi, and near Qingqiu was also the residence of the god Dijiang."
"There are many goblins living in the entire Qingqiu country, mainly foxes, and even humans and ancient gods. The number is not less than that of ancient countries."
"But in the land of one country, from the beginning to the end, there are a total of three gods, as well as Dayu's wife."
"Yuan, do you know the reason?"
Wei Yuan shook his head.
The girl thought for a moment, and did not say the rest of the words in front of the other monsters. Instead, she took Wei Yuan out of the room. Facing his puzzled look, she did not answer directly, but read a sentence, saying:
"Chi You climbed the nine hollow mulberry trees, and Huangdi killed him in Qingqiu."
"Qingqiu is the place where Chi You, the leader of the ancient human race, was buried. In order to suppress his resentment and fighting spirit, Ba and Yinglong lost all their magic power and aura, gave up their status as gods and stayed in the human world. So, in this era, whether Chi You's resentment will grow again is still unknown."
"He was killed by Huangdi, the leader of mankind."
"And my two sisters, Xuan and Ba, assisted Huangdi."
The girl pointed at Wei Yuan and then at herself.
"The terrain of Qingqiu is constantly changing. We entered Qingqiu without the guidance of Qingqiu Fox."
"I think it's not a good thing."
"Besides, your identity is more likely to be targeted than ordinary humans."
"Because of Si Li Xiao Wei?"
"It's Crouching Tiger. Si Li Xiao Wei is the official position of Emperor Wu of Han, but Crouching Tiger can be traced back to Zhou Dynasty or even older times."
......…
Wei Yuan and Tian Nu returned to the room. Hu Ming pretended not to care about what they said and said sincerely:
"I know your concerns, but don't worry."
"The three great gods only exist in legends even in our Qingqiu country, and several ancient leaders have disappeared. There is no problem with safety. Although Qingqiu is a bit xenophobic, give me three days to make a magic token. They won't embarrass you."
"I don't know if you can lend a hand..."
Wei Yuan looked at Tian Nu thoughtfully.
The girl seemed to have a look of disappointment on her face because she knew that the three gods were gone and she was the only one left.
She noticed Wei Yuan's gaze, but just smiled and said:
"Want to go?"
The region that exists in the legend, the foreign country recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the passionate and beautiful fox girl.
A world where monsters and humans coexist.
Wei Yuan nodded.
The girl looked at Hu Ming, nodded, and said in a gentle tone:
"Then, yes."
ps: Most of the information about Qingqiu, Dijiang, and Shebishi comes from the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Xun Chuo's "Notes on the Table of Officials of the Jin Dynasty" said: "The Si Li Xiaowei is a Zhou official. In the Zhenghe period, the case of witchcraft of Princess Yangshi arose, so the Si Li was established according to Zhou."
"Wu Yue Chunqiu" links the nine-tailed fox with Dayu's marriage to Tushan Nvjiao to control the flood.
