I want to be innocent, but they don't allow me

At this time, Li Mu heard Hu Qingyao's anxious voice:

"How can you eat humans? This is the human territory."

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, and quickly analyzed the situation. Logically speaking, this girl shouldn't have such a high IQ, and she would deliberately test...

But what if it's just confusion?

Li Mu subconsciously pushed Zhao Chuyi's body back, and saw Hu Qingyao's tail approaching him.

"Hurry up and give her to me. Mother said that if someone bullies you, just fight back. If you really can't do it, then kill them. You can reason with them, but you must not eat people."

Hu Qingyao spoke anxiously, as if she was caring about Li Mu, and educated him.

Li Mu hugged the tail that was attacking him and said in a relaxed tone:

"It's just a joke. How could I not know about this little thing?"

"Is lying a way for humans to get along with each other? I have never seen a living human, so I don't really understand. I hope you won't laugh at me."

Hu Qingyao's tone became a little awkward, just like a shy little girl.

Li Mu raised his eyebrows, feeling that it was really stupid to analyze this and that.

Li Mu may not be very good at playing tricks, but when it comes to fooling little girls, Li Mu is not at all shy.

Change your thinking immediately.

After teasing it casually for a few words, the snake's body began to tremble.

As he spoke, the emerald green mist around him gradually faded, but Li Mu was clear.

The fog simply became colorless, but it did not truly disappear.

The strange fragrance in the air became even stronger.

At this time, I heard Hu Qingyao's delicate voice:

"When we get there, mother will be buried in front."

Li Mu was stunned and noticed the word "burial".

Although it was a bit unfair, Li Mu still breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, Hu Qingyao signaled Li Mu to get off her.

Li Mu saw that Hu Qingyao seemed to have passed through a transparent obstacle.

Its body also shrank and turned into a small white snake less than one meter long.

Li Mu reached out and touched it, and seeing nothing unusual, he strode forward.

However, what Li Mu did not expect was that Zhao Chuyi's body was blocked outside the barrier.

After two unsuccessful attempts, Li Mu did not dare to force it.

At this time, I heard Hu Qingyao's voice:

"Humans can't enter here, come here quickly!"

Li Mu frowned and thought for a moment, then untied Zhao Chuyi from behind and placed her steadily on the ground.

He turned and walked towards the small grave mound in the distance.

"Mother, mother, look who I brought with me. He, he is here to pick me up. He is from the fox tribe just like father."

Li Mu felt a little guilty when he heard Hu Qingyao's cheering voice.

Although the other party was a snake demon, Li Mu felt as if he was deceiving a young girl who was not very worldly-wise.

"Oh! By the way! What's your name?"

At this time, Hu Qingyao's snake head suddenly turned towards Li Mu.

"Li Mu."

Li Mu didn't think about it and answered directly, "You can't even lie about a name."

However, Li Mu saw that Hu Qingyao's head was tilted in a very human way, as if she was thinking.

Then, Li Mu heard Hu Qingyao's surprised cry:

"Nine... Nine tails! You are a nine-tailed fox, mother, mother, Yao'er's future husband is a nine-tailed fox, mother..."

"Oh my god, what did I just say? Why does it feel like it's getting more and more troublesome!"

Li Mu only felt his scalp tingling and had no idea what was going on.

At this moment, Hu Qingyao leaped into the air and wrapped her arms around Li Mu.

"Li Mu, Li Mu, hurry up, mother wants to talk to you."

Li Mu didn't expect that even after turning into a small snake, Hu Qingyao still had so much strength.

Hu Qingyao dragged his body to the grave mound completely out of control.

Li Mu laughed awkwardly twice, clasped his fists towards the grave and said, "Hi, auntie, my name is Li Mu, and I'm a nine-tailed fox..."

Unexpectedly, I heard Hu Qingyao's giggle:

"You...what are you doing? Drip blood. Drip blood here."

As it spoke, the tiny snake tail pointed to the land in front of the grave.

Li Mu did not hesitate. He ran his index finger across the palm of his hand, and blood slowly dripped along the lines on the palm.

"Okay, okay!"

Hu Qingyao's voice sounded distressed.

Then Li Mu saw Hu Qingyao, which was wrapped around his arm, quickly crawling towards his palm, and its tongue scratched the cut that had just been made.

Li Mu was surprised to find that the cut on the palm of his hand healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Before Li Mu could ask, he suddenly felt his eyes blurred.

When I came back to my senses, I saw a beautiful young woman in a emerald green skirt standing in front of the grave.

"Fox clan?"

The beautiful woman's voice was slightly cold and her tone was somewhat unfriendly.

However, before Li Mu could speak, the beautiful woman frowned, staring at him with her almond-shaped eyes, and said in a tone of disbelief:

"Human Race!"

Seeing that he had been exposed, Li Mu decided to stop pretending. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the figure of the young woman in the green dress in front of him flickering slightly as if space was torn apart.

Then, a kind smile appeared on his face, and he said in an extremely pleasant voice:

"My name is Ye Qingqing, nice to meet you, sir. My ...

Afterwards, Li Mu listened to a story about a nobleman from the fox clan and a little demon from the snake clan, who fell in love and eloped and fled to the human tribe.

Basically, Hu Qingyao's father is a six-tailed fox from the fox clan, and he holds a high status.

But he fell in love with a little bamboo pit viper from the snake clan.

The two experienced many hardships and finally escaped to the human race, living in seclusion there.

However, Hu Qingyao's father left due to important matters and there has been no news of him since then.

Among them, Li Mu’s previous doubts were finally answered.

The demon race attaches great importance to bloodline. When walking among humans, the surname actually represents the inheritance of bloodline.

All foxes with six tails or above will use the character "Hu" as their surname.

As for the Nine-Tailed Fox, there were only the former Demon King Li Sanyi and the later Fox Clan Chief, Li Ji.

It can be said that among the fox clan, Li and Li are unique.

"This little white snake is a little too naive, isn't she? Has she ever thought that I am bragging?"

Li Mu was puzzled. At least from the mouth of the beautiful woman in green skirt, he knew that there had only been two nine-tailed foxes in the fox clan before.

Li Mu was thinking about this when he saw the woman in front of him suddenly kneel down in front of him and begged:

"If you don't abandon me, I will let my daughter serve you. If you have any difficulties, you can write a letter of divorce and send my daughter back to the Fox Clan. No matter what you choose, the things in the house will be given to you."

Li Mu frowned and asked:

"Why didn't Madam return to the demon tribe on her own?"

"..."

"Madam, aren't you afraid that I'll take the things and run away?"

"..."

"Why go to the Fox Tribe?"

"..."

"Madam? Look, your husband is back!"

"..."

Li Mu tried again and again, but found that the beautiful woman in front of him always looked pitiful and stared at Li Mu without blinking.

At this time, Li Mu discovered that the beautiful woman had three lit incense sticks in her hands, and her movements were very concealed.

"Madam, what is this incense for?"

"..."

The beautiful woman still didn't answer.

Li Mu thought about it for a moment and came up with a guess.

The phantom of this beautiful woman was obviously different from Qiu He whom Li Mu met on the third floor.

Although Qiu He is a remnant soul, he is still Qiu He in essence, but his strength and memory are severely damaged.

The beautiful woman in front of him should have been recorded in advance, something like a video image.

He was unable to communicate effectively with Li Mu, and at best he could only convey different messages depending on the person who came.

Li Mu thought of the two completely different attitudes the beautiful woman had towards her fox identity and human body when they first met him, and his mouth twitched slightly.

"Good fellow, this is still based on the person you are dealing with."

Li Mu sighed, but thought that this was a good thing, at least he didn't have to face a monster that had lived for hundreds of years.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, if..."

However, as soon as the word "good" came out, Li Mu felt a palpitation...
