Patriarch enjoys meal

There is no light pollution in the countryside, and it is already dark outside after dinner.

Zhou Jiran sat next to Tao Jiang and asked worriedly, "Are you feeling a little out of sorts today, are you feeling unwell?"

Tao Jiang shook his head. He couldn't explain what was going on. After arriving at Huang'en Village, he always felt that something was calling him. .

After hearing Tao Jiang's description, Zhou Jiran clapped his hands, and boldly guessed: "Perhaps it's the mountain spirit who sees you looking good, and is trying to seduce you!"

Huang Jin, who was listening, couldn't help but sneered in his heart, and said that it was practice, not superstition!I believe you big head ghost!

Tao Jiang didn't know how to refute for a moment.

At this moment, Mr. Huang, who had been calling the city to contact the city to restart the road construction project after dinner, entered the house: "No accident, the road construction will start next month. This matter has been delayed for so long and finally there is a It worked out."

Huang Jin is not as optimistic as his uncle: "Last time, besides my dad, other people also disagreed with the road construction. If they make trouble again..."

"The other people who made trouble last time were all local ruffians in the village. They originally wanted to take the opportunity to make some money. Your father's accident and the suspension of the project also frightened them." Mr. Huang has already considered it carefully: "I He and the village chief plan to organize a meeting of the villagers tomorrow, and talk to them about the benefits of this matter to everyone."

This matter is obviously Mr. Huang's heart knot, and now there will be a good result. With his mood relaxed, Mr. Huang is even more enthusiastic towards Zhou Jiran and the others, holding a bowl of liquor brewed by villagers' native methods, and began to talk to them Tell about the local conditions and customs of Huangen Village.

Tao Jiang listened very seriously. With the audience, Mr. Huang's enthusiasm became even higher, and he had already drunk a bowl of wine before he knew it.

"...In the early years, there were wild boars on our mountain! When we couldn't find food on the mountain in winter, they ran down to steal food. The courtyard gate couldn't resist the big fangs!" Mr. Huang said to himself when he was excited. Poured a bowl of wine.

Tao Jiang was thoughtful: "The ecological environment here is quite good."

"Although we are poor here, we are a little poor, but the mountains are good and the water is good. Now there are fewer people entering the mountains, and the pheasants and hares on the mountains don't know how fat they are." Mr. Huang is very proud, "How does the country advocate Come on? Mountains of gold and silver are not as good as green water and green mountains!"

Zhou Jiran echoed, "It's true that the mountains and rivers are suitable here."

Tao Jiang rubbed his forehead, looking confused: "Did you hear that?"

Zhou already heard the words and listened attentively. The countryside was very quiet at night, except for the occasional insects and frogs, there was no movement: "What did you hear?"

"Whining, animal whimpering," Tao Jiang was not familiar with wild animals, but at this moment he was inexplicably sure, "It's the voice of a fox!"

"Hu Daxian?" Mr. Huang said happily, "We haven't seen it here for many years! This is a good omen, where is the sound? Let's go and see!"

Tao Jiang pointed in the direction of the back mountain without hesitation.

Mr. Huang never thought about why only Tao Jiang walked out excitedly with a blushing face when he heard the movement.

Zhou Jiran smiled and got up too. Before going out, he asked Huang Jin who was sitting still on the chair: "Aren't you going to watch the fun?"

Huang Jin has no fluctuations in his heart, and he is determined not to participate in superstitious activities: "No, I want to start a happy e-sports night."

Zhou Jiran shrugged, and when he stepped out of the door, he left a warning: "I see your face, it is not appropriate to take the middle road today."

Huang Jin sneered and chose the mage in seconds.

At night, Tao Jiang could not see his fingers in the mountains, and he followed Mr. Huang with a strong flashlight, quietly listening to him popularize some customs of Huangen Village.

Mr. Huang used his hoe to knock on the dense branches and weeds on both sides of the trail from time to time while walking: "I heard from the old man that walking at night is to make some noises. There are many human-like things in the mountains at night. When they hear the sounds, they can avoid them in time." open."

"It's the same as beating grass to scare snakes," but if it was really a fox, it would probably be scared away, and Zhou Jiran walked at the end. "The mountain is very cloudy, and ordinary people are easy to encounter if they enter the mountain at night..."

"It's really a fox?!" President Huang interrupted Zhou Weiran with an exclamation.

Zhou Jiran followed the light of the flashlight and saw a small red fox with soft fur squatting on the ground quietly and obediently.

Not only was it not scared away by the movement made by the three people, but it tilted its head and squinted its fox eyes to look at them very humanely.

"It used to be said that the name of the wild fox is purple fox. If it hits its tail and emits fire at night, it will be a monster. It must wear a skeleton to worship the Big Dipper. If the skeleton does not fall, it will turn into a human." Zhou Jiran said, looking at the big fluffy tail swaying behind the fox, "There are stars and no moon tonight, so it is indeed a good time to worship."

Holding the handle of the hoe, Mr. Huang was stunned halfway, and exclaimed: "It's so powerful! It's really a fox! It's hard to find a skull."

Tao Jiang silently moved the flashlight away from the fox and shined it on the open space next to it.

Tombstones with different materials and characteristics come into view.

"This is my family's ancestral grave!" Mr. Huang lifted up the hoe and the drunkenness that had just subsided immediately: "Is it here to dig my ancestral grave?"

No, in fact, you want to dig graves more now, and complaining about it, Zhou Jiran hurried forward and grabbed the hoe in Mr. Huang's hand, and repeatedly persuaded: "Don't, don't! Let's forget about Mr. Huang, this is the country. Second-level protected animals, you can't afford to provoke them!"

The fox also held its breath, and squatted on the spot without moving. Mr. Huang was so excited that he wanted to swing a hoe to hammer it. It also raised its furry head and raised its paws to scratch its chin. All the foxes exude a calm and comfortable atmosphere.

I always feel that I am despised by a fox, and this realization made Mr. Huang calm down strangely.Maybe his excited appearance is no different from watching a monkey show in the eyes of this fine fox.

Seeing Mr. Huang's calmness, Zhou was already relieved. He took two steps towards the fox, squatted down, and discussed with it: "It's not easy for you to cultivate in the current environment. If you dig people's graves for worship, even if you cultivate human form, you can't do it." It will be stained with karma, but the gain will outweigh the loss.”

The most feared thing on the road of practice is to be stained with karma.This is especially true for spirits and monsters. It is not easy to repay what you owe to others. How to repay, how long to repay, and how to repay it are all up to you.

Zhou Weiran's words were very effective. It stopped licking the fur of its paws, walked up to Tao Jiang with a flick of its tail, tilted its head and squinted its eyes, rubbed against Tao Jiang's trousers, and let out a coquettish whine from its throat.That demeanor is full of cuteness and innocence, not like a fox but like a clingy cat.

This wave of operations directly shocked Zhou Weiran and Mr. Huang. Does this society even care about foxes?

Although Tao Jiang was puzzled by the fox's closeness to him, he couldn't raise his guard against it. Seeing the little fox whine softly around his ankles, he found it interesting, so he knelt down and scratched its chin gently.

Zhou already felt that the fox might not have come to dig graves, but to touch porcelain.Didn't you just scratch your chin twice?Just turn over and show your belly like this, invite someone to knead it?

With the development of this plot, who is the vixen?

Seeing Zhou Jiran's indescribable expression, Tao Jiang remembered the way he looked at the fox's big tail from time to time, thinking that he also wanted to get close to him, so he was very considerate and sent out an invitation: "It's very obedient, do you want to come? …”

"Okay!" Zhou already agreed readily, and directly started to touch the fox's furry ears.

Lying on the ground with eyes closed, the fox enjoying the caress suddenly felt too much. Rubbing his ears with his hands, he quickly opened his eyes and saw that it was Zhou. It's a little stiffer than before.

"Liao Zhai didn't even dare to write about a fox in the cemetery in the middle of the night." Zhou Jiran winked at Tao Jiang, "There's an allusion: Hitting the tail at night is a fire. I've never seen it before, and I don't know if it's true or not." .”

Tao Jiang didn't speak, but silently clenched the little fox's claws tightly.

Zhou Jiran smiled, and quickly patted the fox's fluffy tail, a few wisps of bluish-white fox fire floated up in response, and the little fox exploded in an instant, kicked its legs and struggled a few times, and found that its two claws were controlled It stopped, and yelled twice aggrievedly, and the fox fire around its tail dimmed a lot.

Zhou already straightened out his blown fur, and said: "Okay, don't be wronged, it's just a little fox that can touch the threshold of transformation so quickly, it means that your bones are very good, go back to the mountains and practice hard It will definitely work, don’t come down the mountain again before you take shape.”

Afraid that it would come down the mountain to dig other people's graves in the future, Zhou Jiran threatened it half-truthfully: "If you use someone else's skeleton to fight, you will go to find the reincarnation of that skeleton and serve as a slave and handmaiden to repay the karma after death. I have to follow him for the rest of my life, and I can only listen to him for everything!"

"One of your seniors in the demon world just wanted to repay the karma. Even the cub gave birth to her, but he was still imprisoned under the tower by a monk. He didn't have a bite for 20 years!"

Spirits have always been free and at ease, and are most afraid of restraint.Sure enough, the little fox shuddered immediately after hearing his words, and looked anxiously at Tao Jiang who had let go of him.

Tao Jiang also followed Zhou Weiran's intention and said: "It's true, there are monks and Taoists below the mountain who specially catch little monsters like you and roast them."

The little fox let out a terrified cry.

The rest of Mr. Huang's drunkenness was also blown away by the night wind, and now he stood quietly watching these two people cheat the fox like a child.

Isn't it said that foxes are particularly cunning and treacherous?Is this coaxed around or has become a fox? !

The fox design collapsed.

The little fox cuddled Tao Jiang for a while, got a few comfortable tickles, and finally turned around and went deep into the forest.

When it was about to disappear at the edge of the flashlight's range, it turned around and bowed to the three of them, and it completely melted into the darkness in the next second.

Mr. Huang was a little dazed by that obeisance: "This fox is really spiritual..."

Zhou Jiran rubbed his fingers, feeling a little regretful that he didn't twitch his tail more: "Foxes are already smart, but they are very smart when they become smart."

"By the way, is the story about the senior from the demon world you just said true?" Boss Huang was filled with great curiosity in his small heart at the moment, "There are really monsters and humans marrying and having children in this world?"

"It's true, this matter is quite famous, and people all over the country know about it." Zhou Jiran said, "Haven't you watched "The Legend of the White Snake"?"

President Huang: "..."
