"only……"

Then, he lowered his head and looked around the group of big furry foxes, and couldn't help but hesitate and said to himself: "Can these foxes be the pets left by the owner of the Flying Shuttle who fell here?"

This is a good guess and can also explain why these foxes are not afraid of people at all, but are very close to people.

But Su Zhou simply denied this speculation.

"No."

He stroked the ears of a little fox in his hand and watched the other party shake comfortably. Su Zhou looked around the entire underground cavity and murmured: "They are humans."

"What?!"

For a moment, both Liu Wuxin and Tang Yuan turned their heads in surprise and looked at Su Zhou, as if they wanted to know why he said that.

But at this time, Su Zhou did not answer. His eyes were fixed on the other end of the cavity, an old fox who looked very weak.

And the old fox's eyes also locked on Su Zhou.

As he slowly got up, Su Zhou gently picked up silver furs from him, and then walked towards the old fox with abalone areata.

"Gu, Guao..."

Facing the upright creature that was constantly approaching him, the elder barely supported his four legs, but soon, his too weak limbs would not be able to support the weight of his body.

The six tails that originally made it proud have become a burden to their body at this time. They are so heavy that they can't lift them even if they fight with all their strength.

——Am I going to die?

But such an idea flashed through his mind. Before he could think carefully, the elder saw that the upright creature leaned down and gently held himself in his arms.

"You just want to see me?"

Su Zhou, who used the mindless heart to clearly distinguish the voice of each fox, naturally realized the voice of this old fox that was far more active than other ice foxes. It seemed that because it was the authority of this old fox, the ordinary ice foxes who were too intimate before did not move forward, but stayed in place.

“Gu…”

Su Zhou could see that the old fox in his arms opened his eyes, then slowly moved his head and pointed to the nearest cave next to the light golden lake.

Su Zhou knew very well what the other party meant - it wanted to let himself pass.

Then go over.

"You guys are waiting here, I'll go and see what's going on."

Instructing Liu Wuxin and Tang Yuan to hold the old fox, Su Zhou walked towards the cave, and the two left behind looked at each other, then shrugged, expressing helplessness.

But no matter what, the discovery of such a group of strange ice field foxes on Qingqiu Four, which was originally expected to be lifeless, is a great gain for the earth. Not to mention anything else, this fox that adapts to more than 100 degrees below zero and can withstand altitude sickness is itself a very good research object.

At this time, Su Zhou had entered the elder's exclusive grotto.

Although it was a grotto, after he went deeper for a while, he clearly felt something was wrong.

"Is this, metal?"

He noticed that the four walls of the corridor were not rocks, but a gray-silver metal. In response, Su Zhou tried to press it a little hard, but a small hole was left on it, and it did not penetrate it completely: "It is still a high-performance alloy, with very high completion."

And when Su Zhou really came to the cave where the elder usually lives, it became even more obvious.

Because that is not a ‘cave’ in the traditional sense, but a very obvious, broken metal cabin.

"really."

The square metal cabin made Su Zhou think that he had returned to Earth in an instant, but it was obvious that this was just an illusion. Su Zhou sighed, all this was exactly the same as what he had detected when he was on the surface of the earth before: "Not only this cave... the entire underground cavity, and even the entire underground lake, are located on a huge sky-breaking shuttle, which is above the wreckage of the spaceship in the era of the Immortal Gods."

"But, a thousand years ago, in order to cover up the fact that the spacecraft fell here, the humans who still alive covered the spacecraft with frost and rocks and buried it deep into the ground."

"Why cover it up?"

He asked himself so questioned.

But another voice answered.

"—Because we have to avoid the pursuers who may have sent from the 'Qingqiu Kingdom'."

As the sound rang out, blue light spots rose from the totem poles composed of the skull of the ice fox.

Immediately afterwards, many light spots gathered like fireflies, forming a small phantom of ice foxes, like blue flames.

It has nine tails and a vertical black mark on its forehead. Its body flashes from time to time like an unstable projection.

"Lord Dragon King...Lord Dragon King..."

This phantom, like an illusion, slowly approached Su Zhou. Its tone was not known whether it was respect or the joy of finally fulfilling its wish. Its heart was so complicated that even Su Zhou could not hear it clearly: "You... are you here... finally here... Are you okay in the Central Divine Court? Since the spiritual energy has weakened, the immortal gods in the fairy world have not come here for a long time..."

"You need to be careful. His Majesty the Dragon King, there is a huge mistake in the seal on Qingqiu Kingdom. The king was assassinated by a spy. We, we don't know..."

"Is the migration plan of the fairy world still being implemented? Can we still catch up with the last batch of migrations?!"

"Qingqiu Kingdom is very dangerous now... Please return this news to the Divine Court..."

"The seal has an error and must be corrected..."

His limbs were bent and he lay in front of Su Zhou. What Ice Fox Phantom said was indeed Chinese, but both pronunciation and tone were very different from the Mandarin today.

However, Su Zhou didn't care about these things. He could understand the other party's words and listened attentively.

The voice of the Ice Fox Phantom seemed to want to express the emotions accumulated over the long period of time together, stacked together, as if the sounds were initiated by many voices at the same time, and even many different and fragmented sentences appeared.

Even in the end, the totem pole composed of many fox bones began to shake, so that the existence of the blue fire fox itself began to become fragmented, and a large number of souls that had originally merged together and remained stable began to fall apart and annihilate themselves.

Until one hand stretched out and gently sootheed the fragmented thoughts of the Ice Fox Phantom because of the many souls mixed together.

"It's okay, I'm here, don't be afraid."

The young man said this, his tone was gentle: "If you have any worries and anxiety, just tell me."

"Come on a little bit, start from scratch - don't worry, I'll listen carefully."

After being touched by Su Zhou, the Ice Fox Phantom gradually stabilized, and the numerous totem poles gradually returned to normal.

And after everything returned to peace, Phantom stared at Su Zhou.

It had regained its rationality and stared at the young man for a long time, then sighed a long sigh.

"You... aren't the immortals of the Central Divine Court?" Although they were in a puzzled tone, the meaning was affirmative.

"Well." Sitting on the ground, Su Zhou put the old fox who had slowly fallen asleep on his legs. He replied calmly: "A thousand years have passed since the last immortal god left our world. They will never come back, and we are the remnants of their stay in the fairy world and have developed a new civilization."

"Yes, sure enough. I said, the Dragon King of the Divine Court cannot be so amiable."

Murmuring like this, the Ice Fox Phantom looked at Su Zhou's legs, the old fox who was sleeping peacefully.

It sleeps soundly and feels very at ease.

Seeing this scene, Phantom seemed to have made up some decision, then raised his head and looked at Su Zhou and said, "Then, I've said it."

"Um."

Su Zhou responded calmly: "I'm listening."

"——We Qingqiu people are actually just the emperor's jailer."

Then, in this way, accompanied by the telling of the Ice Fox Phantom, a story that has lasted for thousands of years will be told in a leisurely manner.

Since more than 200,000 years ago, the Central Divine Court discovered this space-time domain and established the Qingqiu Kingdom. Since then, this country belonging to the Central Divine Court has flourished and developed on that verdant planet, and races such as human race, Qingqiu fox, and red turtle live here.

The nine-tailed fox is the totem god of Qingqiu Kingdom. The so-called nine-tailed fox "carry the book when it comes out" means that the Qingqiu fox with nine tails is a symbol of auspiciousness and morality. It represents the leader of the country and bears the responsibility of cultural heritage. It is very popular with the original emperor at that time.

Therefore, the nine-tailed fox, who was deeply loved by the emperor and even later received the position of guarding the other party's tomb, began to build a huge seal in Qingqiu Kingdom under the guidance of the other party to suppress an ancient evil god.

The seal lasted for a long time, and for more than 100,000 years, it was very stable. After all, emperors of all dynasties all had the status of the Heavenly Venerable, and the one who sealed the evil god was the first emperor. The seal he set was so stable that no one was worried about the safety of the seal.

However, since thousands of years ago, the seals had abnormal movements from time to time, and from then on, the ups and downs of the spiritual energy began to become extreme, which made the seal even more unstable.

As a prisoner, Qingqiu people began to have different thoughts.

".........A thousand years ago, the king was assassinated, and the seal located in the Yizhize was also attacked by evil spirits. In order to avoid the evil spirit awakening and to harm the people of the world, we had no choice but to take away the container sealed with part of the evil spirit's true soul, take the Yuxu Flying Shuttle, and go to the Central Divine Court to apply for support..."

"But on the way to escape, part of the shuttle was destroyed by evil spirits, and we also underestimated the extent of the spiritual energy decline. The damaged shuttle could not fly to the overpass leading to the divine court. We could only be forced to land in this wilderness that had not yet reopened the world..."

In such a faint narration, the Ice Fox Phantom shook its tail, its tone without any emotion: "Then, it's struggling to survive."

"At the beginning, we were still thinking about waiting for the spiritual energy to recover to a certain level, and then repaired the shuttle and headed to the sky bridge (time and space gate). After all, if the evil gods were unsealed, even the Divine Court, the Heavenly Venerables, and the contemporary emperors would definitely have a headache... But who knew that the spiritual energy would never be restored forever, and it would even be completely cut off until it was gradually restored after a thousand years."

"Even if the human body has cultivation, it is difficult for it to survive in this extremely cold wilderness realm, let alone the human body after the spiritual energy is cut off. If you want to survive, you must convert it into the body of the Qingqiu Fox and the bloodline of the Ice Fox branch in it."

Speaking of this, the Ice Fox Phantom looked at the old fox lying on Su Zhou's legs, and it lowered its eyes: "Then... because it is really difficult to survive, it can only maintain the form of the Ice Fox until now."

Su Zhou listened quietly to all this, and he had already guessed most of the information about the Ice Fox.

——Yes, how normal.

On this cold planet with an average temperature of more than 110 degrees below zero, how can humans who have lost their spiritual energy survive? Only by converting into a slightly magical ice fox bloodline can they adapt to the local environment.

"But their wisdom..."

Su Zhou stroked the sleeping old fox and said in a heavy tone: "Although it is a little smarter than ordinary foxes, it is far from being as good as a normal human."

"Because the spiritual energy is thin. It means it is difficult to practice. It is difficult to practice, which means it is difficult to change between the two bodies of the imitation Taoist body."

The Phantom Ice Fox sighed softly: "In order to continue the bloodline and maintain the seal on the fragments of the true soul of the evil god, we cannot waste our power and change human form... and that's too waste of time."

Su Zhou could only remain silent about this because the other party was right.
To be continued...
