Chapter 90 Meeting the Little Fox Demon
As I walked into the back mountain, there were few people, and the mountains became more and more lively. Frogs croaked in my ears. On the big pine trees not far away, a few pine trees were playing and fighting on the branches...
Chang Jin did not enter the depths of the mountains, so he only found a place where no one was left to stop, sat on a big stone to rest, and enjoyed the rare beauty in front of him.
In this era without pollution, spring is everywhere. However, such beautiful scenery can rarely be seen on the earth in later generations.
Before I knew it, it had been a year since I arrived in this world. From the initial hesitation to acceptance, to the struggle with Liu Zhisheng and others, fighting Guo Shenpo, killing the land of the River God... Chang Jin didn't feel much about it.
Now that he has time to think about it, he feels that he is a legend and is becoming more and more integrated into this world. Here he has his own relatives and friends, and there are also mysterious unknowns that need to be explored.
As he thought about it, his thoughts began to flow. When he came back to his senses, he found that it was not too late.
After patting the grass and dust stained on his clothes, Chang Jin turned around and ran down the mountain. As soon as he took two steps, he suddenly stopped again and turned his head to look at the grass more than ten feet away.
I saw a half-large little fox appearing from the grass and stumble towards him.
Most of the fur on the little thing is reddish-brown, but there is a circle of white hair under the neck. It suddenly looks like it is surrounded by a scarf.
And the fur was shiny and shiny with jade.
It is normal to meet a fox in the mountains, but I didn’t expect to meet a little fox demon.
A few traces of white air were shrouded in the other party's head, and more of it was black demonic air.
Obviously, he has just practiced for a while, and his realm is only about the second turn of human and immortals. Such foxes have already had their spiritual intelligence and can understand human language. In theory, they should be mostly in the deep mountains, so how could they run outside the mountains?
Before he could figure it out, the little thing also discovered Chang Jin's existence. He was shocked at first, and hurriedly jumped into the nearby grass, and looked at it. His very humanized little eyes were wide open, with a few terror inside, and more of a helpless look.
After several tests, I saw Chang Jin not moving. The little guy seemed to be sure that the humans not far away had no malice, so he finally walked up to him.
He kicked the ground with his hind legs, half-strung his body, hugged his front paws, and kept nodding at Chang Jin.
No...Animals are so polite?
Chang Jin was a little stunned when he saw it. He remembered the scene when he first met Xiaoqian. He never thought that the fox he met now was the same.
He felt funny in his heart and hurriedly bowed back.
The little fox squeaked at Chang Jin a few times, then nodded again.
Is this...is something wrong?
The human in front of him was puzzled by his own meaning. The little fox got anxious and circled around him twice, then screamed a few times, turned around and ran towards the mountain.
After running for more than ten steps, it stopped again and turned around and continued to scream at Chang Jin.
"You asked me to go into the mountain with you?" Chang Jin understood a little bit. Judging from the little guy's anxious expression, it seemed that there was something in the mountain to ask him for help. I remember that once Xiaoqian went to the county town to find him, and this was the same.
"Squeak..." The little fox should have understood human language, so he nodded again and then screamed a few times.
If the average person is in this situation, he would have been shocked.
Chang Jin would not do this. He had contacted many demons, including Xiaoqian, Hu Dahai, and Bai Susu sisters. They were no different from ordinary humans, so Chang Jin did not have much prejudice. As long as the other party has no evil spirits on his head, he would not look at the other party with tinted glasses.
What's more, many times, monsters are more worthy of interaction than humans and know more about gratitude.
I don't know what this little guy has to do with him, so Chang Jin followed closely behind.
After walking four or five miles away, the little fox suddenly stopped and screamed at the distance.
Squeak... Echoes immediately came from the grass.
At this time, Chang Jin discovered that there was a fox with red fur not far away. Its hind legs were clamped by the trapped beasts, and its steel teeth penetrated deep into the flesh. Blood flowed out along the wound, dyeing the land bloody.
This kind of animal trap Chang Jin has seen it in the mountains before. It is made of stainless steel, with organic springs, and has a very powerful bite force. It is used to capture large beasts.
This little fox demon was not lucky and somehow stepped on it.
If it is a large beast, the body will naturally be strong after cultivation, and the beast will not be trapped.
But foxes are different. They are more of cultivating their souls, not known for their strength, and cannot break free from the constraints of steel teeth.
Without the need for the little fox to remind him, Chang Jin had already stepped forward, reached out and opened the trap and released the other little guy. As for the trap, Chang Jin pulled it hard and pulled it in half.
Seeing that his companion was out of danger, the little fox rushed over immediately. He howled lowly, and then he squatted in front of Chang Jin and screamed in his mouth.
What does this mean? He looked at the two little things with some confusion.
The two foxes chirped for a while, and saw that Chang Jin was unmoved. The previous one jumped away and soon disappeared in the grass, leaving the injured little guy in place.
Now Chang Jin was even more confused. Seeing that the blood on the little fox's legs was still flowing, he had to tear open half of his clothes and bandage the wound for the red-haired fox. Fearing that its limping and jumping affects the growth of the bones, Chang Jin even specially made two tree sticks to fix it.
During the whole process, the red-haired fox seemed very docile and did not bite people. Even when Chang Jin bandaged the wound on it, a trace of human shyness appeared in the little fox's eyes.
After bandaging, Chang Jin patted the little guy's head and said, "Okay, go back now, don't come out and let the hunter discover it again.
It was not too early, and he was about to return to the city.
Before he could take a step, the red-haired fox screamed anxiously again, as if he didn't want him to leave.
Helplessly, Chang Jin had to continue waiting in place.
In an incense stick, the little guy returned, holding a plant root as thick as a bamboo pole in his mouth, with many roots on it and a few leaves on the top.
When he came to Chang Jin, the little fox placed the plant on the ground and screamed at him again.
What is this? There is actually a little spiritual energy inside... ginseng?
After careful examination, Chang Jin discovered what the plant in his hand was.
There are also people in this world. Most of them grow in the deep mountains and old forests. Those places are mostly occupied by insects, snakes, tigers and leopards. Few people can access them. Therefore, ginseng is more precious.
Chang Jin had seen ginseng in a medicine shop in Tongqu County before. Those were only about ten or twenty years old, although there was little plant essence inside, it was incomparable to the plant in front of him. It should have been a few decades.
For ordinary people, ginseng is very effective in nourishing qi and replenishing blood. However, with his realm, the little spiritual energy contained in this ginseng can be almost negligible and has no use to him.
However, the two little guys jumped and jumped around him. Judging from this situation, if Chang Jin didn't accept it, they wouldn't give up.
"Okay, I'll accept it."
Chang Jin smiled and touched the heads of the two foxes, and turned around and came out of the mountain.
When I walked away, I still saw two little guys seeing each other on a big rock.
When he returned to the inn, Wang Qinian's master and servant were already waiting in the room. Seeing Chang Jin returning with a ginseng plant in his hand, Wang Qinian was very surprised and hurriedly asked where he got it from.
"After I separated from Brother Qingyuan, I went to the mountain to watch the scenery and found it accidentally." Chang Jin naturally hid the contents of the two little fox demons.
"No, this is OK? If I had known this, I would have accompanied Yunsheng." After hearing this, Wang Qinian regretted it very much.
In the backyard of Ma Mansion, Ma Jin was sitting alone at the table drinking wine. Beside him, he was standing respectfully a middle-aged housekeeper. The man had a Yin Xiao face and was named Fan Yu. When he was young, he was a thief. Later, he was caught by the government and was put into prison. He was asked to be executed by the autumn queen. Ma Jin's father knew that this man was brave, so he secretly rescued him, and then reported that he died of illness with another body.
After Fan Yu was rescued, he stayed in the Ma Mansion. Over the years, he handled a lot of trouble for the Ma family. Later, Ma Jin grew up and Lord Ma was worried about the trouble his son would cause, so he specially sent Fan Yu to protect his son.
"Uncle Fan, have those two scholars not found yet?" Ma Jin asked with a sip of wine and gritted his teeth. Although the wine was bought from Yuxianlou, it was just drunk at his own house, and it didn't feel good.
Ma Jin was born in a family of officials. From the day he was born, I don’t know how many people came to please him every day.
However, a few days ago, two scholars suddenly appeared humiliated him. As the two poems spread, after everyone learned the story behind them, they didn't know how many people laughed at themselves secretly.
When my father learned the news, he scolded him hard and was wrapped up at home for several days and was not allowed to go out at all.
This is true for people. It is easy to attribute mistakes to others, but it is difficult to put them in themselves.
The same is true for Ma Jin. In his opinion, the incident of the Immortal Tower was purely because two rural scholars from Tongqu County did not give him face and could not get out of the market in public.
Such a great shame is tolerant, but who is unbearable? Every other day, Ma Jin's hatred for the two scholars increased by one point, and he wanted to kill the two scholars with his own hands. The two of them existed in this world for one more day, and Ma Jin felt that his humiliation was also a little worse.
Especially Chang Yunsheng, he could only relieve his hatred by peeling off his skin and cramping his soul and scattering his soul.
But when he sent someone to inquire about the other party's news, the two scholars suddenly disappeared in the inn and disappeared.
"Young master, there is no news yet. However, I have sent a few subordinates to contact the rogues in the city. They are very familiar with the streets and alleys of Fucheng. I believe that it will take not long to find the two of them." Fan Yu bent down and said.
"Okay, tell those subordinates that as long as anyone finds the news about the two scholars first, I will reward twenty taels of silver. In addition, you are helping me contact the thieves in Qinglong Mountain, and then let them go to the city to kill the two scholars and throw them into the Bishui River. Let's see who dares to provoke the young master in the future..." Thinking of the hatred, Ma Jin's eyes flashed with a sharp look.
"Young master, it's best not to let those thieves take action."
"Why?" Ma Jin asked with a frown.
