Chapter 309 The fox has grown up and can support a family The next morning, Wu Lingshi came as invited. Perhaps he didn't know that when he came to deliver silver to a "cultivation master" like Lin Jue, he just waved his hands and refused to take it. His daily life was even simpler than Master Fan, but he actually needed the silver. Perhaps he just thought that Lin Jue made friends with Fan Tianshi and Pan Gong and lived with them, but he only got a silver medal from Juxian Mansion, while the other two got gold medals, which made him look a little embarrassed. So he wanted to accumulate merits so that he could exchange them for a gold medal worthy of his ability and status as soon as possible, or he thought that Lin Jue simply wanted to get rid of harm for the people. In short, after realizing this, he immediately took the recent events in the capital and asked the fox fairy from the Zhenren family to take action. Most of them are little demons and ghosts in the city. After all, this is the capital city, which is very popular and has the Observatory Palace. No matter how lazy the gods under the Tianweng's throne are, they will not allow the big monster to cause trouble in the capital city. So Lin Juezhen only let the fox take action. The fox is three times larger than an ordinary mountain tiger. Even if it has no magic power or spells, and no magical powers, most small monsters cannot defeat it by relying solely on close combat with its claws and fangs. What's more, the fox's strengths have never been its claws and fangs, but its intelligence and wit as well as its magical powers.
Speaking of real ability, whether it was fighting against small monsters in the past or fighting against big monsters now, it has always been a good helper to Lin Jue! Going out to eliminate demons is easy. In the first few days, the Ministry of Rites still took into consideration Lin Jue's ability and reputation. Although he was exorcising a small demon, the silver he sent was higher than normal. However, Lin Jue soon found something wrong. After confirming with Master Fan, he told Wu Lingshi again. After that, everything was fine. The last bit of flattery in the silver was gone. Every day, Lin Jue would sit in meditation in the courtyard, carve bean soldiers, and practice other magic. In his spare time, he would make tea, cook, play chess, and drink, leaving Fuyao alone to work outside to make money. The fox has grown up and can make money to support the family. He did not feel guilty at all. Every day before the fox went out, Lin Jue would discuss with it how to deal with the enemy and how to act. Sometimes Luo Gong was there, sometimes Fan Tianshi and Pan Gong were there, and sometimes even Wan Daoyou came to visit. The discussion was centered around the fox, and it was also a place of advice. When it comes back, I listen to it tell me about what happened today, a few words of flattery, or a few small suggestions. It's gradually approaching midsummer. In the courtyard in the evening, under the crabapple tree, a cup of cold tea can cool you down. The leaves rustle, the light and shadows dance, and the Taoist priest just sits motionless at the table, which has a bit of the flavor of ancient strange stories. But there was a fox beside him, speaking human language: "That's also a fox! But not a fox like Fuyao, it's the kind of fox that's everywhere! It turns into a human, lives with humans, absorbs their energy, and turns back into a fox when it thunders!" The fox tells about today's events. "Did it fight with you?" asked the Taoist sitting under the tree with concern. "There was no fight!" The fox squatted on the ground and had to look up at him to meet his gaze. "I turned into a big fox and frightened it so much that it fell to the ground and shivered!" "Fuyao is really amazing." Lin Jue said, "During this period of time, she must have scared away a lot of goblins and ghosts just by scaring them, right?" "Quite a bit!" "Um……" It seems that foxes with several tails have some status among goblins and ghosts. But this is normal. Not to mention the demon world, even in the human world, the legend of the nine-tailed fox still exists today. In ancient times, it was a god widely worshipped by people. When a person dies and becomes a ghost, as long as he remembers a little bit of his life, remembers the legend of the nine-tailed fox, and remembers that it is a fox fairy, even a ghost will feel afraid. "What's the end?"
"The men in black put it in a cage and took it away!" "Is that the constable?" "Captain!" repeated the fox. "Wu Lingshi said to bring money for tea and water tomorrow morning!" "I see." Lin Jue said, "It seems that Fuyao is getting more and more powerful." "understood!" Both the man and the fox were very satisfied. This is a fair exchange. Fuyao gave money and Lin Jue gave emotional value. However, at this moment, the fox suddenly turned around and looked outside. There was just a white courtyard wall, but its gaze moved from right to left on the white wall, accompanied by a series of gradually clearer hurried footsteps. When the fox's gaze moved to the round gate, Wu Lingshi's figure also appeared in the round gate. “I’m here to give you money!” The fox immediately turned around and looked at Lin Jue. "No." Lin Jue shook his head and said. The fox was puzzled and tilted his head to look. But seeing Wu Lingshi panting, his expression was also panic and serious, obviously he had something urgent to do. He walked to the gate of the courtyard, holding the round door frame with his hand, and just as he raised his hand to knock on the door frame, he saw a man and a fox. Luo Gong's figure holding a knife appeared behind them at some point. So he stopped knocking on the door. The fox raised his eyes upwards. The setting sun was casting golden light. The shadows of the bamboos and leaves were cast on the white wall, which made it think. "I'm here to give you money in advance!" "No." "I'm here to send you money in a hurry!" "No." "Someone is delivering money!" "Not at all." Lin Jue answered as he stood up. This fox was really stubborn. Just because it was the one who said "I'm here to deliver money" first, even though it noticed that it was dusk instead of morning, that Wu Lingshi looked anxious, and that Wu Lingshi came alone, any of which proved that he was not here to deliver money, it still stubbornly linked it to "delivering money". He is a stubborn and single-minded fox. In front, Wu Lingshi raised his hand to salute them, but he was too tired to straighten his back. He opened his mouth to speak, but his throat was hoarse and he was gasping for breath, so he couldn't say a word. All I had to do was clasp my hands and lower my head, which was considered a greeting. "Lingshi, please come in, have a cup of tea, and then we can talk slowly."
"it is good……" Wu Lingshi walked in quickly and saw Mr. Luo handing him the teapot. He took the teapot, bowed to Mr. Luo and Lin Jue to thank them, then raised his head and opened his mouth, lifted the teapot, and poured the tea into his mouth through the air. After a few gulps, the tea flowed down his neck. I just felt that the tea was clear and fragrant, and extremely cold, which was just right for cooling off and quenching thirst. After a few sips, I felt much better. "You need to exercise your body!" “You need to exercise!” Lin Jue and Fox spoke one after another. "Thank you, Master Lin, for your advice!" Wu Lingshi said as he put the teapot back on the table with both hands, and then said to them, "Something bad has happened! I just received news that a powerful monster has come from Jinping County in the northwest. It not only robbed the road and cut off traffic, but also ate people alive and slaughtered officials and guards. Even the postman couldn't deliver the letter!" "Ok?" Lin Jue and Luo Gong both looked at each other with a solemn expression. This is Qinzhou, the heartland of Jiang, where the capital is located. It's not in the north. I'm afraid such a thing hasn't happened for many years, right? I had to advise him not to be anxious and to talk slowly. "Didn't we have several days of heavy rain last month? The heavy rain caused disasters in various places. Some roads were blocked, some villages were destroyed by mud and rocks, and some even flooded the whole city. Jinping County suffers from severe floods every summer. "Jinping County lost contact with the capital last month. We thought it was just a road failure, but it has not been restored until today. "Yesterday I heard some adults say that there might be a rebellion in the northwest. “Until today, just now, a group of people in ragged clothes came to the capital, and somehow sneaked into the city. Half of them were spreading rumors in the downtown area, and the other half were kneeling in front of the government office and the palace. Only then did we know that a powerful monster had come to Jinping County. "The monster was extremely ferocious and violent. It was said that when it entered the city on the first day of the new year, it slaughtered all the officials and soldiers in the city. Then it blocked the roads, sealed off the city and hid the people. The people who managed to escape had to go through untold hardships before they ran to the capital to report." Wu Lingshi said this and took a long breath. Lin Jue listened with a frown on his face: "northwest……" Lord Luo said in a cold voice: "Look at how you manage the world? The people were trapped in the city and kept as captives by monsters, and the people had to run to the capital to report such a serious matter! Moreover, the people did not dare to report it directly to the government, but had to go to the downtown area to publicize it!" Wu Lingshi was speechless. This was not something he could control. "In short, the capital was in an uproar at this time. The people in the city were in a panic and talked about it endlessly. The government and the higher-ups were also very anxious, and the people of Jinping County knelt at the gate of the government and refused to leave!" Wu Lingshi said, "The Taoist priests and several adults in the Guanxing Palace were all worried, fearing that the demon king in the northwest was planning to invade the human world." Lin Jue and Luo Gong were silent for a while, both thinking in silence. "Do you know what kind of monster that is?" Lin Jue asked. "How would the common people know? Only some said they vaguely heard a wolf howling, while others said they saw a monster turn into a bird and fly away," said Wu Lingshi. "Aren't there some capable people in the Juxian Mansion confronting the demon king in the northwest?" Lord Luo asked, "How come they don't know about this?" "There are indeed several Heavenly Masters in Juxian Mansion who are looking for a way to get rid of the Demon King in the northwest, but they are in another direction, and the Demon King has never set foot in Jinping County before," said Wu Lingshi. "It seems he will come up with another trick." Lin Jue said.
"That's not all. I've heard that demons and monsters appear in troubled times, and they like to take advantage of the situation to rise up." Luo Gong analyzed, "It could also be that this year's natural disaster did cause a lot of deaths in Jinping County, and the demon took advantage of this opportunity to come here and invade the human world." Both of them understood it. Even so, the monster dared to do such a thing, it must have seen that the human dynasty was coming to an end. "Master Lin, I can't explain it clearly. Right now, the people of Jinping County are still kneeling in front of the yamen and the palace gates, saying that they can't rise up without the court sending troops. Please go over and take a look!" Wu Lingshi said anxiously. The two of them looked at each other for a moment. It turns out that only this method can make the court and government offices anxious now. (End of this chapter)
