Fox Demon: This is the Guardian Blade

"Sir, please take care!"

......

Chen Gou was very full. The wontons made by this wonton stall were really good. He only ate two bowls, while Fanyin ate seven bowls.

When Chen Gou saw with his own eyes how Fanyin finished cleaning up seven bowls of wontons, his understanding of Fanyin's strength was refreshed again. How could such a small person hold so much? Chen Gou didn't understand but he had to understand.

"Um...Fanyin, are you really full?"

Chen Gou looked back as he walked down the street. Fanyin, who seemed to be feeling shy because he had eaten too much, asked uncertainly.

"Master Chen, Fanyin is full~..."

Fanyin drooped the furry fox ears on his head in embarrassment and answered in a low voice.

Hearing that Fanyin meant that he was really full, Chen Gou couldn't help but secretly wipe away the non-existent shame in his heart.

If it weren't for the system to make money, Chen Gou felt that the ten taels of silver given by Brother Hao might really be in danger, although he had already spent about one thousand taels in Tianxianyuan.

Energy: 320 (white)↑

Looking at the remaining energy, Chen Gou found that the consumption was indeed much less, and was even slowly increasing.

Before, I was practicing and deducing talismans, so the consumption was not great. Now I only deduce talismans and there is no negative consumption.

Later, Chen Gou spent some energy and earned money. However, if he only spent without earning, he would run into problems sooner or later. After he learned the talismans, he would sell some.

Chen Gou thought truthfully that the space in the storage bag was enough for the time being. Chen Gou first took Fanyin to the herbal medicine store, the clothing store... in turn.

Buying things in the herbal medicine store is a bit troublesome. Chen Gou didn't dare to spend too much money in the same herbal medicine store. When he was in Tianxianyuan, when the shopkeeper Li knew that it was his first time to come to Tianxianyuan, he spent about 1000 taels of silver.

Chen Gou felt for a moment that there was something wrong with the look in Shopkeeper Li's eyes when he looked at him, but that feeling quickly disappeared.

Chen Gou has always trusted his intuition. Perhaps it was because after thinking about it and weighing the pros and cons, Manager Li finally did not do anything out of line.

Shopkeeper Li likes money, but for the sake of these small amounts of money, he is too lazy to cause trouble. To be able to sit in the position of shopkeeper, he, Shopkeeper Li, is not so reckless.

......

At the clothing store, Chen Gou bought some clothes he needed, and of course bought some for Fanyin as well. He also bought a mask that half covered his face.

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Chen Gou used the talisman given by Manager Li to remove the restrictions on Fanyin before bringing Fanyin into the store.

After all, wearing a collar around the neck does not look good, and even makes Chen Gou feel that it is a bit too perverted.

When the ban was lifted, Fanyin's mood was obviously much more lively than before. He then used the shapeshifting technique exclusive to the Fanyin demon clan to retract his tail and ears, so that his demon clan identity was no longer obvious.

After choosing the clothes and changing clothes, when Fanyin came out, Chen Gou thought he had recognized the wrong demon.

A person named Fanyin appeared in front of Chen Gou. He was wearing a light blue half-covered patterned mask, medium-length grass-gray hair, and a blue-green long skirt.

Looking at it this way, after covering the scars on her face with a mask, her overall sense of feeling has been greatly improved, with a temperament that is a mixture of a cute loli and a fresh girl.

Seeing Fanyin looking at him expectantly, wanting to hear his opinion, many people around him were also amazed by the way Fanyin dressed up.

Everyone looked at the place where the girl was looking. Chen Gou was embarrassed and scratched his head.

"Hmm...very cute, suits you very well..."

Fanyin was obviously more happy after hearing Chen Gou's comments. She couldn't help but smile from the bottom of her heart, and her smile was very bright.

Chen Gou was a little distressed. He had originally intended not to attract attention, but in the end he had underestimated the potential of the fox demon race. Should he buy Fanyin a veiled hat?

Chen Gou looked at Fanyin, who was still very happy about getting a new toy, and was secretly thinking in his heart.

In the end, I bought a hat for Fanyin and put it on her head. Fanyin thought it was a good idea because she would feel uncomfortable if she was always stared at by many people.

Looking at Fanyin's outfit, Chen Gou nodded. Overall, it was relatively safer.

As for Chen Gou, he changed into a dark green outfit. This style of clothing and color looked pleasing to the eye no matter how you looked at it. In addition, Chen Gou didn't look very attractive, so no one paid much attention to him.

"By the way, I might have to stay in Floating Cloud City for a while. If you want to go back now, that's fine."

After leaving the clothing store, Chen Gou suddenly said to Fanyin who was standing beside him. Fanyin, who was originally in the excitement of getting new clothes, was suddenly stunned.

"But Lord Chen, I don't know which way to go in the Western Region. Fanyin is not familiar with this place at all..."

Fanyin explained in a lost tone, her eyes becoming dim. In fact, she knew that Chen Gou didn't need to spend money to get her out.

Because she knew that she was useless and not good-looking, she wanted to repay Chen Gou but didn't know how.

"Okay, then you can help me out by doing some odd jobs first. When I'm done, I'll take you to the Western Regions. You should know the way there, right?"

After noticing Fanyin's expression, Chen Gou seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, so he scratched his hair involuntarily and spoke after thinking for a while.

"Okay! I can do whatever you ask me to do, and I will do it seriously! If there's anything I don't know, I will study hard!"

After hearing this, Fanyin's eyes lit up, and he put his hands on his chest to make a cheering gesture, looking enthusiastic again.

This... it feels like Fanyin is a little easy to fool? It seems... it can't be that all monsters are like this, right? For example, that Tushan Rongrong...

Chen Gou looked at the shorter Fanyin beside him with a worried look on his face. Perhaps it was because the other party was still a child! (Chen Gou meant that according to the generational hierarchy of the demon clan, he was considered a child.)

Without thinking about these things anymore, Chen Gou took Fanyin with him and walked around, stopping and starting, and finally rented a shop in a place with neither too much nor too little traffic.

A place to rest and stay for the next period of time.

Of course, since he rented a shop, he was going to sell things. As for what to sell... Chen Gou originally planned to sell talismans, but the system had not yet parsed them out, and the speed of self-study was really not satisfactory.

So, let's put selling things aside for now, right? Time was too tight before, but now I have plenty of time to practice.

Chen Gou even customized a plan for himself in order to have enough energy points.

Practice the spells and skills you know during the day and do some simple physical exercises. It's better than nothing.

At night, I can focus on improving my cultivation and practicing martial arts. Although I won’t feel tired while practicing, it is inevitably boring.

But Chen Gou felt it was okay. As he practiced, the feeling of spiritual power slowly growing in his body made him feel extremely fulfilled, and he no longer felt bored.

......

"You are truly discerning. This shop is absolutely affordable for you to rent. If you are not satisfied with anything, please let me know. I am happy to serve you!"

The speaker was an older man who was wearing a brown cotton-padded jacket and had a short, thin appearance that looked a bit like a rat.

Before, when this man saw Chen Gou coming to the shop with a child, he was indifferent. However, when he saw Chen Gou come up and take out a silver ingot, the boss's attitude improved visibly.

It turns out that money is really useful most of the time!

After the transaction was completed, the boss enthusiastically expressed his desire to treat Chen Gou to a meal to make amends for his previous behavior.

But after seeing the other person's character, Chen Gou didn't want to get involved with him any more, so he declined the other party's invitation and walked into the store. Fanyin also understood and closed the door immediately.

After being rejected, the person knew that the other party didn't want to pay attention to him, so he could only mutter to himself in frustration.

Then he took out the silver that Chen Gou had just paid him from his storage bag and bit it with his teeth. Seeing that the silver was genuine, he immediately put on a smiling face and left happily.
