"Really, why would my father want me to marry a fox?"
In the side hall of the Raccoon Palace, Afu, the enchantress of the Raccoon tribe, was spinning around impatiently.
Although Ah Fu is a female raccoon dog, she usually prefers to appear more human-like.
Her general appearance is the same as that of a human girl, with Maru eyebrows and a pair of pink eyes. Her figure is petite, and she wears a brown yukata, which is half open, and you can see the white wrap wrapped around her barren chest.
A corner of chest cloth.
The biggest difference from humans is that it retains a pair of animal ears on the top of its head and a big furry tail hanging behind it.
All the raccoons are good at transformation, so it is easy to transform into human form.
But other raccoon demons, especially male raccoon demons... like Dangoro raccoon demon, to it——
Your fangs are very handsome, you should keep them!
The shiny fur is also beautiful, especially the hair covering the face, showing a beautiful "mask" style, so keep it!
There is also a pair of majestic "lights of the moon". This is the symbol of a male raccoon, so of course we keep it!
In short, because of this difference in aesthetic concepts, there is still a big gap in appearance between Ah Fu and his tribe.
In addition, another reason why Afu's aesthetics is more like that of humans is that she spends more time directly with humans than other tribesmen.
A long time ago, when the 88 raccoon dogs still lived in harmony with humans, the still young Ah Fu often sneaked away to Songshan City.
In the human world, there is a story called "Fengfu Teapot", which is widely circulated. It is said that——
A poor old woman living alone in Songshan City saw a trapped raccoon in the forest one day. She felt sorry for the raccoon and set it free.
That night, the raccoon dog appeared at the old woman's house. In order to thank the old woman for her help, it proposed to sell itself as a tea cauldron in exchange for money.
The next day, the old woman sold the tea cauldron to an old monk.
The old monk took the tea cauldron back to the temple, filled it with water, put it on a shelf and boiled the water, but the raccoon dog that had transformed into the tea cauldron couldn't stand the heat, so it screamed "Wow" and transformed back into a half tea cauldron and half raccoon cat, and escaped back to the old woman's house.
at home.
Next, Li suggested turning it into a tightrope tea cauldron, allowing the old woman to perform on it and open the eyes of nearby residents.
At the end of the story, because of the raccoon dog's actions, the old woman finally had a sum of money that allowed her to spend her old age more stably.
In addition, the old monk who once bought the "Fengfu Tea Cauldron" spread the news about the appearance of the moving tea cauldron in the temple, which attracted an endless stream of pilgrims and made the temple famous far and wide, which also improved the temple's economic situation.
This story of "a civet cat repays a favor" and "sharing a teapot with blessings brings good luck" is actually related to Ah Fu.
It was the stupid things she did when she was still unable to fully transform into a human form and could only learn to transform into simple objects.
In short, when Ah Fu sneaked into human society to play, he surprisingly had a pretty good life.
If Matsuyama City hadn't suddenly attacked the Tanuki tribe, she might have continued to live in friendship with humans.
Let’s not talk about old things.
Now that she has become proficient in illusions and has even achieved a foreign visit, the fox-turned-enchantress is in great distress.
Because she had just learned that her father, Kami Yin Xingbu Tanuki, planned to marry her to a fox.
Ah Fu doesn't like foxes very much.
Although the aesthetics of foxes seem to be more biased towards humans, foxes look cunning and cunning.
It's really not Ah Fu's type.
What Ah Fu is attracted to should be the kind of monster that is tall and strong, full of masculinity, and full of security at first sight.
"Father is so annoying!"
The enchantress of the Tanuki tribe dared to sneak away into human society alone when she was a child. She has a somewhat rebellious character.
Now that it was about her marriage, after much thought, she decided to do something.
"I heard that Nirudo is dead. Without that big monster to stop me, maybe I can leave Iyo?"
…
Yuli Palace.
The Shenyin Xingbu Tanuki was enjoying the wine that Fox Juliushiro had given him earlier.
"belch--"
After another jar of wine was drained, Xing Buli burped happily.
Not to mention, the wine the fox cub brought tasted really good.
Xingbu Tan has already considered the matter of Fox Juliushiro's proposal of marriage.
It was really off-putting at first.
But when you calm down and think about what Fox Juliushi said, it actually makes sense.
That fox cub is obviously a "Sky Fox". In his current weak state, he may not be able to defeat him.
There is no benefit to be gained from a war between foxes and foxes.
The old civet cat, Xingbu Tanuki, is getting old, and his energy has long been lost in the battle against Songshan Castle.
It really doesn't want to start an all-out war with the fox again.
And the external ghost forces are really a problem.
Until now, his subordinates have not found any specific information about the ghost clan's forces.
Taking these factors into consideration, it is indeed a very good idea to let the two tribes of fox and fox coexist peacefully to jointly deal with the possible external invasion, which is beneficial to both sides.
Otherwise, if the ghost tribe really comes over, it will be too late to cooperate with the foxes.
Anyway, it’s not like the fox and fox tribes haven’t cooperated before.
It's just that the foundation for cooperation last time was too weak. If marriage can be used as an opportunity this time, and external threats are added, it may be possible to more stably promote peace between the two races.
But it is still not certain whether Fox Juliushirou's move to propose marriage is really considering the future of the two clans, or whether he has some other calculation.
"The little thoughts of foxes..."
To be honest, Xingbutan couldn't think of any conspiracy that Fox Juliushiro had for the time being.
The only thing I can think of is that if the ghost tribe really attacks, the foxes may use themselves to fight against the enemy.
But this is actually not a problem.
If the foxes really think so, it's not a bad thing.
Why don't the Eight Hundred and Eight Hundred Raccoons want to use Fox Juliushiro to fight against foreign enemies?
They are both foxes with thousands of years of history, so it’s really not certain who is more cunning than the other.
"What are the origins of the ghost clan...the ghost clan...if they really come from Dajiangshan...the ghost forces in Dajiangshan must have been defeated by humans long ago, right? I remember that even Shuten Douji was beheaded. If
It’s really those ghost tribes that are lingering on, uniting with the foxes to use Songshan as a stronghold, waiting for work. Even if there are a certain number of foreign visitors from those ghost tribes, it is not possible for us to come here without preparedness after traveling long distances. "
Xingbu Li held the wine jar, narrowed his big eyes, and thought like this.
At this time, there was a noise outside the hall.
Dangoro stumbled in with his tail between his legs: "General, General, it's not good!"
"Say! What's wrong?"
Xing Buli suddenly felt irritable.
Why do you feel like Dangoro never does anything good every time he enters the Yuriden?
Could it be that the ghost tribe came here?
Seeing the leader's unhappy look, Dangoro Tanuki was trembling, but he had to report the emergency: "Fukuki, Fukuki...she's missing!"
…
It is still the permanent Iyo area.
Somewhere on the border of this area, a shrine and many shrine buildings of different styles were finally built.
This location was carefully selected by the little old man. It is located on the boundary of the Iyo land massif and is a certain distance away from the strongholds of the raccoon and fox forces. It can be used as the "birth point" of the Kamiya River to explore Tsunei Iyo.
Not long after the divine coffin appeared here, the yellow-green fluorescence dormant on it seemed to be inspired by some kind of inspiration, and flew around like fireflies that were disturbed on a summer night.
To be continued...
