I'm just a swineherd, not a beastmaster.

A figure flew from the sky.

Leng Chanfeng stood with his hands behind his back on the flying sword, flying at high speed, with the corners of his clothes fluttering in the wind.

"Light?"

Suddenly, his flying speed slowed down and he squinted at the colorful beam of light rising into the sky in front of him.

At the top of the colorful light column, auspicious clouds gather.

"Auspicious sign! A secret treasure has appeared, or a child of destiny has been born!"

Leng Chanfeng couldn't stop being excited. No matter which possibility it was, it was undoubtedly a great opportunity for him.

When he was only a thousand meters away from the auspicious sign, he suddenly twisted the sword and turned a corner.

"wrong!"

He suddenly remembered the purpose of this trip. Wasn't that the place his disciple had reported? It was such an auspicious sign. The more he thought about it, the more something seemed wrong, so he didn't dare to go there rashly.

……

In the courtyard.

Yuan Feng exhaled a breath of stale air and slowly opened his eyes:

"I...was this successful?"

"Success!"

Xiao Ling and several other divine beasts hid in the cowshed and couldn't help but cry out.

"Not only was it successful, but it's also a rare Seven-Star Heavenly Spirit Cave. There are seven Heavenly Spirit Caves, which are extremely rare. The owner was born to taming beasts." Lei Niang is knowledgeable and couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice.

"See, I, Old Pig, said that the master is very talented, even four more than the three Tianling Caves."

After hearing what Daya said, Xiao Ling's face suddenly fell.

Before this, she had always said that Yuan Feng could only open one Tianling Cave.

This time he was slapped in the face and it turned red.

"Someone is coming." Tuntian suddenly said in the corner.

"Is there anyone?" Xiao Ling and others turned their heads.

Then I saw a little girl with pigtails leaning against the wall and peeking into the yard.

The little girl is one or two years younger than Yuan Feng. She has just started to develop and her face is still round and cute. She is wearing gray linen clothes, which shows that her family conditions are not good.

"Brother Feng, what are you doing?" The little girl said with a smile on her face.

Yuan Feng was immersed in the aftereffects of his body's transformation when the sudden greeting brought him back to his senses.

"Oh, it's Xiaorou, why are you here?" Yuan Feng grinned when he saw that it was an acquaintance.

"It's almost autumn, and it's time to fatten the pigs. My dad asked me to bring some pig food over for Brother Feng to feed the pigs." Xiaorou lifted the basket with difficulty. It was full of wild vegetables for the pigs.

"Come in first." Yuan Feng jumped up from the ground lightly, walked to the door and opened it: "You are talking nonsense. Your father is so stingy, how could he let you bring pig food to me? You went to the mountain to cut it yourself, right?"

Xiaorou's cheeks blushed slightly: "I can't hide it from Brother Feng."

Yuan Feng walked forward and took the basket. It felt light in his hand. The basket was actually much lighter than he had imagined.

Has your strength increased?

Yuan Feng weighed the basket in disbelief; his strength had really increased.

Is this what it means to have spiritual roots? Even though I haven’t started practicing, I already have a lot more strength.

Moreover, at this moment he felt relaxed all over, even the hidden injuries he suffered from falling when he was a child were gone, as if he had been reborn.

"Brother Feng, what were you doing sitting on the ground just now?"

"Oh," Yuan Feng recovered from his trance, "Nothing, just taking a rest because I'm tired."

Considering that the other party is still a naive child, Yuan Feng didn't want to tell him his actual situation.

"Your butt will be cold if you rest on the ground. My mother said it's not good for your health." Xiaorou said with concern.

"Got it. I'll be more careful next time. I just roasted two sweet potatoes in the room. I feel embarrassed to take your pig food for free. You can take one and have it." Yuan Feng said, pointing into the room.

"No." Xiaorou shook her head like a rattle. "Xiaorou doesn't want to eat roasted sweet potatoes. Xiaorou wants to listen to Brother Feng's story about the monkey and the monk going to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures."

"You are talking about Journey to the West. Didn't we finish telling it last time?"

"But I haven't heard enough yet."

"It's not satisfying, but I don't want to tell it again. I'll tell you the story of Liangshan Marsh when I have a chance."

"What mountain? What's that for?"

"It's the story of one hundred and eight bandits."

"Bandits? That's so scary. Xiaorou doesn't dare to listen."

"It's okay. The bandits I'm going to talk about are not scary."

"Okay then. By the way, Brother Feng, this flower is for you. Xiaorou picked it up on the mountain. It's red and very beautiful." Xiaorou held the red wild flower in her hand, her eyes full of anticipation.

"It's really beautiful." Yuan Feng took the flowers very flatteringly.

"Then I'm leaving." As soon as Xiaorou handed over the flowers, she turned around with a red face and ran away without looking back.

"Hey!" Yuan Feng was about to call her, but she was already gone. "Why don't you take the basket back... Never mind, I'll return it tomorrow."

……

"Hey, I thought it was an enemy, but it turned out to be a little girl. She is an old acquaintance of the master. Even if you have good eyesight, you can't yell blindly and scare me."

In response to Daya's complaint, Tuntian just glared at him and closed his eyes lazily.

"Something's not right, Daya." Xiao Ling suddenly came to Daya with a worried look on her face.

"My old pig? What's wrong?" Daya looked down at himself in confusion.

"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about that little girl."

"That can't be possible. I know that little girl. Her name is Xiaorou. She is the eldest daughter of the farmer in the east. It is definitely her."

"I'm not talking about the person, but her eyes."

"Eyes, what's wrong?"

"You stinky pig, is your pig brain just a decoration? I've explained it so clearly, but you still don't know." Xiao Ling suddenly got angry and slapped Daya on the head.

Da Ya felt pain and rubbed his head aggrievedly: "Please explain clearly. You all know that I am a pig-brained person, but you still don't explain clearly."

"There's something wrong with that little girl's eyes. When she looked at the master just now, there were lines in her eyes. It's obvious that she likes the master."

"If you like it, then you like it. The master's appearance is considered excellent among humans. Isn't it normal for someone to like him?"

"You are not only stupid, you are brainless. It is not a good thing for the master to be liked by others. Have you forgotten what the most taboo thing for the Holy Spirit Body is?"

"Yes..." Da Ya scratched his head, "Ah! I, Old Pig, now remember that I must not get involved with women."

"To be precise, one cannot get involved with women before reaching the Nascent Soul stage. So, if the little girl takes the initiative to throw herself into the master's arms, and the master is not a person with strong willpower, once he responds, our plan will fail."

"I understand. That is to say, we must stop the little girl from getting close to my master before he reaches the Nascent Soul stage. I will go eat that little girl right now and put an end to it once and for all."

"Eat, eat, eat, you only know how to eat. Don't you see that the owner takes good care of her? If the owner finds out, won't he chop off your head and make pork meat?"

"That's not a problem. Even if the master wants to do that, he can't beat me, the old pig."

"I can't beat him now, but what about later? Besides, the master has helpers."

"Who?"

"I, I will be the first one to help the master chop off your head."

"You can't eat that. I, the Pigsy, will kidnap the little girl and take her away from her master. Then, we will take good care of her until she reaches the Nascent Soul stage. That should be fine, right?" Daya admitted defeat on the spot.

"It's not easy for you to come up with such a stupid idea." Xiao Ling rolled her eyes, "Now that Xiao Rou is gone, what if Xiao Xiang comes along and Xiao Hong is gone?"

"Then tie them together!"

"If there are more, can you tie them up?"

"This won't work, that won't work, tell me, is there any good solution?"

This question stumped Xiao Ling. To be honest, she hadn't figured out what to do.

"Or... find a wife for the master." Lei Niang on the side said suddenly.

"Ah? Lei Niang, are you crazy? I told you not to let the master get involved with women. What do you mean by giving the master a wife?"

"What I mean is, we can find a fake wife for the master. With the engagement, the master won't attract women to him. And the wife we ​​find is also arranged by us, and she won't actually consummate the marriage with the master."

"Good idea!" Xiao Ling clapped her hands and tilted her head, "Then where can I find a fake wife?"

The bullpen fell silent for a moment. After a moment, Daya looked Xiaoling up and down.

Xiao Ling understood immediately and shook her head like a rattle: "No, no, I can't act, I will be exposed."

"No, then no. Why are you blushing?"

"Stupid pig, why am I blushing!"

With a bang, Daya was hit hard by Xiaoling's punch.

"You're clearly blushing, and you still hit me, Old Pig. It's totally unjust. Lei Niang, Xiao Ling won't go, so you go."

"No, I am in the critical period of breakthrough. I need to eat spiritual herbs all the time. I can't eat grass and marry the master, right?"

"Even you can't do it, do you want me, the old pig, to go?"

Xiao Ling and Lei Niang shuddered at the same time. The scene was so beautiful that they couldn't even imagine it.

"Don't be impatient." Xiao Ling suddenly raised her hand, "I have a good candidate, how about the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox? She is the best at charming people, the master will definitely like her, and I know her, her acting skills are first-class."

"That's good." Lei Niang interrupted with her chin held high, "That's right, everyone knows that the nine-tailed fox is lustful by nature. What if, I'm just saying there's a possibility, what if she actually does it?"

"This is easy..." Xiao Ling flipped her hand and a gold necklace appeared on her hand, "Look at this!"

"Is this... a chastity chain? How did you get this?"

"Last time, I beat up an old monk who was a weapon refiner. He specialized in refining some strange things. I confiscated his house, and this chastity chain was one of them. With this, even if the Nine-Tailed Fox is lustful by nature, it will become a chaste heroine."

"It's good, but isn't it unfair to Sister Nine-Tailed?" Daya whispered beside him.

"And Kyuubi sister? Are you interested in her?"

"Of course not. Don't slander me, Old Pig. I'm a pig and she's a fox. We're different species. How could I possibly be interested in her?"

"If not, why are you blushing?"

"I blush? Lei Niang, can you help me, Old Pig, check if I am blushing?"

Lei Niang glanced at Xiao Ling who was giggling and shook her head helplessly: "Xiao Ling was lying to you. Your face is as black as coal. How can you blush?"

"Xiao Ling, you are playing tricks on me, old pig!"

"So what if I'm playing tricks on you? Do you want to fight? Lulu!" Xiao Ling stuck out her tongue mischievously.

Da Ya was helpless about this as he couldn't win the fight.

"Business is more important. It's settled. Xiao Ling, you will be responsible for finding the nine-tailed demon fox."

"Leave it to me."

Xiao Ling jumped and turned into white light and flew out.

The advantage of pretending to be a cat is that Yuan Feng won’t care if you’re not at home during the day.

After she left, Lei Niang suddenly narrowed her eyes and looked through the wall into the distance.

"A strange monk has arrived."

"What kind of monk?" Daya suddenly became nervous.

He finally had a few days of comfort with Yuan Feng, and he didn't want to be disturbed.

"Hmph, I told you long ago that someone was coming, and you just noticed it now?" After saying that, he stretched and was about to get up.

"Young Master Tuntian, why are you getting up?" Lei Niang asked Tuntian seriously.

"Get up, of course, to teach the uninvited guest a lesson."

"Wait, Master Tuntian, don't be impulsive. We have set a rule that no matter who comes, as long as they have no ill intentions towards the master, we must not reveal our identities."

"What a broken rule this is. I don't like it."

"It's all for the sake of practicing peacefully beside the master."

Speaking of practicing, Tuntian lay down again.

"In that case, I'll leave it to you. I won't care anymore."

Hearing this, Lei Niang and Daya both breathed a sigh of relief.
