When I became a Jade-faced Fox

Chapter 20 On the road again

Yu'er carried the book basket on her back again and set out on her journey. The green mountains and clear waters along the way made Yu'er feel relaxed and happy, and she wanted to sing to her heart's content.

"Hey, there are fruits, and they smell good." Yu'er put down the book basket, flew over to pick the two reddest ones, wiped them and took a bite. It was so sour that she grimaced, but she still forced herself to eat it.

"You are an interesting person. If it tastes bad, just don't eat it. Why force yourself?" The male voice came from Yu'er's book basket, which was the jade pen.

"Waste is always bad." Yu'er said, burying the fruit core aside. "Are you willing to talk again?"

I went back to the book basket and found a small package wrapped in oil paper. As soon as I opened it, the aroma spread out. It was roasted dried meat. Although the sour fruit was not very tasty, it was quite appetizing.

Actually, the dried meat was given by the villagers of Zhangjia Village. Yu'er explained the whole story that day, and then asked the jade pen to spit out everything that could be spit out, which was the energy representing longevity and fortune. However, the loss of food and water in these days was indeed made up.

"I wanted to speak, so I spoke." The pen spirit seemed a little unhappy. "Then why did you save me? Let them smash me directly, not just put an end to it."

"You're right. This matter is not caused by your nature after all." Yu'er chewed the food in her mouth slowly and muttered.

The most important thing Yu'er learned during the ten years she practiced with the two ancestors was to learn to look at things dialectically. There are two sides to a thing, and judging it by only looking at one side is not a long-term principle.

When the pen spirit heard these words, he leaned on the tip of the pen with a thoughtful expression.

"You are indeed an interesting person."

"In the final analysis, the fact that you were able to be reborn so early is due to the blood of your master. Human blood is quite spiritual, but it is also because of this that you made mistakes. Of course, this is also because you have just awakened your spirit and are ignorant by nature."

“I still don’t quite understand.”

"In short, you were originally a spirit transformed from jade. During your birth, you were influenced by human popularity, and your personality is somewhat similar to your master. The blood in your illness has evil energy, which magnified the bad side of your personality. This is the main reason why you did something wrong."

"Why did you keep me?" Bi Ling changed from leaning to sitting sideways.

"Why so many whys? You haven't done anything evil that is condemned by both humans and gods and cannot be forgiven. Besides, pen spirits are quite rare. Instead of destroying you, it's better to make a magic weapon for me." Yu'er wiped the corner of her mouth, nodded with satisfaction, and took out a bamboo tube filled with water, moistened her throat, and pushed the dried meat down.

Actually, there is another reason. This pen spirit is pretty good-looking, and Yu'er likes it very much. There are many beauties in the fox tribe, and if Yu'er thinks it is good, then it must be really good.

How to describe it? It's probably a handsome face, with slightly red eyes and eyebrows, and a bit of evil. This sense of conflict makes Yu'er feel itchy and she really wants to bully him.

After putting the things back in place, it was really a remote place with no one around. Yu'er simply returned to her original state, holding only the jade pen in her hand, and flicking it up and down between her fingers.

"Stop playing, it's giving me a headache."

"You seem to have not faced the reality. I am your master and you have no right to tell me what to do." Yu'er returned to her original state and felt extremely comfortable. She even shook her head as she walked.

The little girl looks soft and cute, but her words are not so sweet.

"Although spiritual instruments are more precious, if they are not obedient..." Yu'er did not continue speaking, but looked at the pen with a meaningful look. There was no fierceness in her eyes, but a hint of expectation, as if she was curious and eager to try!

"I'll give you a name, how about Langhao? It's a good name, isn't it?"

"Wolf hair, wolf hair..." The spirit of the brush smacked its lips and thought it was pretty good. "You've given me a name, so you should let me know who you are!"

Yu'er walked and chatted with Langhao slowly, and she didn't feel tired. Because they were walking on remote paths all the time, no one disturbed them, which was very surprising to Yu'er.

But after walking alone for a long time, I couldn't help feeling a little lonely, and the food was also gone, so I decided to find a place to have a meal.

It was almost dark, and seeing that there was no way to go into the city, they planned to spend the night in the land temple outside the village. But when they went in, they found that the temple was full of spider webs, and even the statues and the altar were covered with thick dust, let alone sacrifices.

Yu'er couldn't bear to see it, so she made some hand gestures, swept away the clutter inside and outside, and lit a stick of incense.

I only saw a shadow slowly emerging from the statue and bowing slightly to Yu'er. Yu'er hurriedly returned the greeting and then pulled the incense over.

Yu'er did not dare to stop. After burning this stick, she quickly lit the next one until the body of the God of Land became more solid.

"Thank you very much..." The God of Land wanted to express his gratitude, but he didn't know how to address him.

Yu'er saw his embarrassment and took over the conversation with a smile.

"The Earth God is much better. If that's not enough, I have some top-quality incense here."

"Thank you, girl. I'm much better now."

"I would like to stay at your place for one night. As the host, please agree to my request." Yu'er didn't want the atmosphere to be awkward, so she took the initiative to bring up the topic, speaking in a somewhat coquettish tone.

"Of course you can, of course you can! It's an honor for me and this land temple!" The God of Land immediately stood up straight, nodded repeatedly and agreed.

That night, Yu'er talked a lot with the Earth God, and she wasn't sleepy anyway. From this night's communication, Yu'er gained the most basic understanding of the situation in the human world.

During these years, wars continued, the nobles lived in luxury, and the common people were like soaking in bitter water. Without enough food to eat, naturally no one came to offer sacrifices.

The God of Land and God of Kitchen, who lived on incense, naturally became weaker and weaker, and some of them had already disappeared. In addition, the war was turbulent, the atmosphere of the world was mixed, and all kinds of demons and ghosts came out to cause chaos, relying on the turbid air and the flesh and blood of living beings to practice.

"Not to mention the distant past, in my village, there is a fox that transformed into a human form, and it has probably been practicing for no more than two hundred years. She doesn't take people's lives directly, but relies on the male's yang energy to improve her cultivation. But there are not many young and strong men in this village, and if time goes on for a long time..." The God of Land said, shaking his head helplessly, his tone very frustrated.

For Yu'er, this was the first time she heard about the plight of ordinary foxes in the human world. Next, it should be the first meeting, and Yu'er was very curious about how it would go!

"Well, what are you going to do next?" Yu'er was more worried about the fate of the God of Land.
