Fox Demon Jade Face

On the northern border of the Dao League, there is a quiet town, but its name is Ducheng...

"Mom! There are many delicious mushrooms growing in the little square over there in the bamboo forest..."

Outside Ducheng, in a forest of bamboo and shrubs not far from Ducheng, a young girl in plain clothes but with fresh flowers hanging on her hair was sharing with an elderly lady the new things she had encountered today.

Her name is Landu, she is an orchid fairy. She grew up in this quiet forest since she was a child. In the forest, she has made many good friends!

There was a civet cat in the east of the forest, two birds in the west of the forest, and a small fish in the north of the forest. Except for the south of the forest, she had already visited all over the forest.

At this moment, Landu was leaning against his mother, who was also dressed in plain clothes. Her clear eyes kept jumping on the grass and flowers in front of her. She was talking about what delicious fruits had grown in the forest, which bamboo had sprouted, and so on.

But her eyes always secretly looked towards the south of the forest, as if there were things there that could really attract her.

But think about it, she had lived in the forest for a hundred years, and it took a lot of effort for her to transform from an orchid into a human form. If it weren't for her mother restraining her, she would have run out of the forest to see the outside world long ago!

"Haha, little A-Du, don't look outside anymore. Your mother has seen everything."

Lan Xi, Landu's mother, smiled and comforted little Landu who was leaning on her. Looking at little Landu's eyes that glanced outside from time to time, how could she not know what little Landu was thinking.

It was just too dangerous outside. Only in this forest could she barely protect Xiao Landu. She was afraid that if Xiao Landu went outside and encountered danger, then...

Moreover, Lan Xi looked at the radiant little Landu who was shy because her secrets had been exposed, and she felt extremely worried.

If I hurt this kind and clear heart outside, then...

"Little Landu, it's not that I want to stop you, it's just that it's too dangerous outside, and I'm afraid you..."

Lan Xi stroked Landu's forehead again. She carefully explained the situation outside to little Landu, but before she could finish her words, little Landu interrupted her.

"Don't say any more, mother. Landu understands that mother is doing this for Landu's own good."

Landu knew that her mother was going to explain to her why she couldn't go out. Although she always listened to her mother, the yearning for the outside world in her eyes had not diminished in the slightest.

"Ugh……"

Lan Xi couldn't help feeling unbearable as she looked at little Landu, who had to pretend to be calm in front of her even though she admired him very much outside.

Gradually, two months passed, and now it was midsummer. The breeze blew through the bushes, passed through the woods, and blew onto Landu, who was playing and chasing with his good friend, the raccoon cat.

"Wow, it's so cool, little raccoon, don't let me catch you!"

Feeling the breeze blowing towards her, Landu became more spirited. Looking at the raccoon cat Xiaoli in front of her who was wagging its tail to tease her, she put more effort into chasing after it.

So, the raccoon cat ran in front, and she chased after it. The man and the cat ran from the east side of the forest to the center, passed through the bushes, waded through the stream, and then chased from the center of the forest to the south side...

"Meow~"

When they were about to enter the southern part of the forest, the raccoon cat was still running in front, but Landu behind did not move forward because he remembered his mother's words.

"Xiao Li, mother told me not to go to the forest..."

Landu looked helplessly at the raccoon cat in front of her that was still waiting for her to catch up, but the raccoon cat was still wagging its tail. Not only did it not mean to stop, it even wagged its tail at Landu.

“Meow~ meow meow~”

The civet cat looked at Landu who still didn't move forward, and it shouted at him with some dissatisfaction.

"But, mother will be angry..."

When Landu heard what the raccoon cat said, he was stunned for a moment and then quickly shook his head.

"Meow meow meow~ meow meow~"

The civet cat looked at the hesitant Landu and opened its mouth to seduce him.

"Just for a while? Are you sure mother won't know?"

After hearing what the raccoon cat said, Landu was still somewhat reluctant, but he was obviously shaken.

"Meow~"

Seeing that the conspiracy had succeeded, the raccoon cat also cried out in great joy.

"Okay then, but let me make it clear first, we can't go too far away. Also, if we are discovered and mother asks about it, you will be fully responsible!"

After a while of ideological struggle, Landu made a decision instantly. She pointed at the raccoon cat and said in a very domineering manner.

"Meow!"

The civet cat listened to Landu's words with disdain in its eyes. It wagged its tail twice and then dived into the southern side of the forest.

"Hmph, stop, don't run!"

Seeing the raccoon cat mocking her again, Landu angrily chased after it and entered the southern part of the forest.

They chased each other noisily all the way, and the entire southern forest was filled with her clear laughter and the meowing of raccoon cats. It had never been so lively here before.

The raccoon cat played with her continuously. After an unknown amount of time, they had already moved away from the previously designated location and came to the southernmost part of the forest.

"Eh? Is this the southern end of the forest? ...What is that?"

Landu and the raccoon cat, who had arrived at the southern end of the forest, were also shocked at this moment, because a small town appeared in front of them. It was... a human town.

"Xiao Li, hurry up, there are humans coming!"

However, just after they had admired the scenery outside the forest for a while, Landu suddenly discovered a human walking towards them in the distance carrying a bamboo basket.

Landu, who had never seen a human being, had never seen such a scene before, so he quickly called the raccoon cat back.

The civet cat also understood Landu's concerns, so the man and the cat quickly ran from the edge of the forest towards the depths of the forest. When passing a small bamboo forest, the civet cat crawled through the narrow gap between two bamboos. Landu naturally followed closely behind, but when passing through the two bamboos, she got stuck between the bamboos due to physical reasons.

"Xiao Li, help me..."

Landu called out to the raccoon cat in panic. The raccoon cat also noticed Landu's situation. It hurried over to help Landu out of trouble. It came to the bamboo and tried its best to bite the bamboo with its teeth, but it suddenly stopped.

"Meow meow meow!"

The raccoon cat suddenly called out to Landu, meaning that she should restore her original form so that she could pass through.

"Yes, Xiaoli, you are so smart!"

Landu also reacted suddenly, but just as she was about to transform back into her original form, a voice interrupted her.

"Girl, what are you..."
