That leaf was produced in the demon country Qingqiu, with delicate and beautiful lines. In the human world, this kind of creation from Qingqiu can be used to find creatures that also come from Qingqiu.
When Wei Yuan and Tiannu found each other, the vixen also looked at them in surprise.
Then they looked nervously at the green leaves in their hands:
"Where is Lao Zhai? Why do you have the leaves in your hands?"
Wei Yuan saw this kind of spirit for the first time.
This is a male vixen that is rumored to be rare and looks very old.
Among the monsters, there are not many that can turn into human form when their moral skills are not high. Aunt Huang’s more than 100 years of spiritual skills can only ask for help in her dreams. Among the types that can transform, the most famous one is the fox.
Demons and raccoons.
This vixen transformed into a short old man with silver-white hair and wrinkles on his face. He was wearing a light-colored British suit. He looked gentle and elegant, but he was a little anxious at the moment, which made his silver hair shake.
Cultivation to become a spirit monster can greatly extend the lifespan of living things, but this is not without limits.
The lifespan of a fox itself is only ten years.
Even if the life span is extended ten times, it will only be a hundred years.
The nine-tailed fox with a thousand years of Taoism is a great monster that will be recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
………………
Wei Yuan told the old man how he got the book and leaves.
A look of regret appeared on the vixen's face, he sighed, sat on a chair next to the park, remained silent for a long time, and said:
"Really? Lao Zhai has passed away..."
"I finally found the medicine, but it seems there is no point."
The goddess looked at the medicine in the old vixen's hand and said, "This is the elixir for extending life. Do you want to give it to him?"
"You must have been injured when you were collecting the medicine."
The vixen said naturally: "Because we are friends."
The girl's eyes were a little surprised. She thought for a while and said: "The leader of Qingqiu is a nine-tailed fox. Although it is regarded as auspicious, it can eat evil people. You are her subordinates, and you will also be like the wild fox monsters in the outside world.
Same, looking for someone to be friends with?"
"I've never eaten anyone."
The old vixen muttered, and then, for some unknown reason, he shook his body uneasily.
"Well, I once wanted to eat him."
"Just once."
"I had a thought for a moment. All evil deeds have no regard for the heart, so it is not considered evil."
Wei Yuan became somewhat interested, placed Qingqiu Ye next to him, and said:
"You want to eat him, how did you become friends?"
"Also, do all the spirits hide in the human world like you?"
The vixen said: "Things become spirits after a long time. If there is no spiritual power, there is no spiritual power. The spirits are not just visual. It turns out that we have been living in the deep mountains and old forests, but now there are fewer and fewer deep mountains and old forests. The kind of steel bars you people built
As there are more and more forests, there will naturally be monsters with no place to live and they will sneak in."
"As for the matter between me and Lao Zhai."
It saw that Wei Yuan and the girl next to it who frightened it seemed to be interested, and shook its head:
"If you want to hear it, I can tell you."
………………
The nine-tailed fox, the leader of the Qingqiu clan, is a famous monster in China!
Before being discredited, it was auspiciousness in the eyes of mortals.
But the nine-tailed fox eats people.
Whether it was because this was her instinct when she was still a beast rather than a demon, and it was seen and recorded by someone at the beginning, or because some evil person was punished and devoured, this is not a lie spun, but recorded in the mountains and seas.
Stories from the Bible.
Hu Ming is the most common Qingqiu fox.
He also wanted to get closer to the nine-tailed fox, so he decided to do something that could prove the fox demon.
Instead of practicing the magic of enchantment, you should think of ways to do ancient hunting and cannibalism.
This is not because standing among a bunch of little female foxes learning charm and transformation skills will make him feel embarrassed and ashamed, nor is it because he is stupid and can never learn to be charming, but simply to follow the ancient customs.
He quickly settled on a target.
He was a little boy whose family was very poor. The adults died in a short war, leaving him alone.
But he had a hobby that poor people of that era should not have, reading.
When it went hunting for the first time, it didn't act rashly because there were adults around.
On the second hunt, I had already touched the back of the little boy, but I vaguely heard him muttering something. He suddenly raised his voice and asked where the monster was. Hu Ming was so frightened that his hair exploded and his eyes were opened.
Staring wide open.
Is this little guy the kind of person who carries magic power in his mother's womb?
But later I found out that the boy was just reading a book, a kind of story called Huaben.
The boy was also startled by the fox's unusual movements. The boy stared at the fox for a long time. The boy laughed, broke off a piece of hard bun, stretched out his hand and handed half of it over, but the fox didn't even look at it.
He flicked his tail and ran away.
boring.
dull.
This is the initial idea.
The fox decided to give the kid a slap in the back. It would take a long time for a fox to eat such a big man, but the story was so nice. He decided to listen to the story slowly and read the books before starting. He looked at the books.
Qingqiu Fox's life is not short, and he can only read these books for a year at most.
But after reading one book, there are more books.
Sometimes, if he wants to recall these stories and words, the boy will find a way to copy them.
During this period, foxes often appeared, and he was used to them.
It's just that in the village, there is no peace among boys, especially in families without parents, and they are not gregarious. Little boys are often bullied by older boys. Every time this happens, the fox will yawn and feel
It was boring, and then while those boys were running away, he secretly used illusions to tease them.
For example, let them sit in the cesspool on empty space.
For example, let them fall flat on the ground.
At this time, he will feel that he is the hero in the storybook.
Some other spirits asked it, how could the fox demon from Qingqiu be friends with a human boy? Hu Ming would raise his head slightly and proudly tell them that the guy was not his friend, but just food.
That's all, I will recreate the ancient tradition of nine-tailed fox cannibalism.
Those wild little spirits would look at him with expressions of reverence and admiration.
Such days passed for a long time. The turning point of the story is that one day when Hu Ming came down the mountain to the village, he saw a Taoist priest taking out a yellow talisman and handing it to the young man, telling him: "You have evil spirit in your body."
, he is entangled by a vixen. The evil spirit can harm and eat people. If you stick this yellow talisman on its body, I can subdue him."
Hu Ming was dismissive. He didn't think that guy would doubt him.
The young man was silent for a long time and took the talisman.
So the fox thought about it for several days without looking for him.
But he finally went and after listening to the last story, he decided that if the boy took out the talisman, he would eat him. Sure enough, after the story was finished, the boy lit the lamp and looked at the fox and said, "Are you a vixen?"
Hu Ming raised his chin and said coldly: "Yes."
"you are mine……"
The word "prey" hasn't been finished yet.
The boy had a smile on his face, took out a book, and said, "That's great."
He said: "If you can speak, then we can read books together. I have a lot of things I want to discuss with others."
Hu Ming was a little dazed, and then the young man was full of excitement. He chatted for a long time, and then suddenly he slapped his forehead as if remembering and said: "By the way, a Taoist priest came to the village. He may have discovered you. You have to ask for help these days."
Avoid him."
"I tricked him into taking his talisman away, and he can't deal with you."
The young man was very proud.
The fox stared at him with wide eyes, but couldn't help laughing.
After reading so many books, did you know that Taoist priests can draw talismans?
……………………
The old vixen stretched out his hand and took a fallen leaf.
He stopped talking, paused, and said: "We were inseparable. For more than ten years, we read and argued together. Then he came to the city, found a wife, got married and had children, and I returned to Qingqiu. We agreed that every time
I come to see you every three years."
"The last time I saw him, I saw that his life span was almost over, so I didn't go back to Qingqiu. Instead, I went to find this medicine, hoping to extend his life span, but it was still too late. Although I had already
I know this day will come, but I always don’t want to think about it.”
"It turns out that he finally finished reading this book."
The goddess looked at Hu Ming, who looked like an old gentleman, and said: "The lifespan of Qingqiu Fox is not more than a hundred years."
"You just lied."
The vixen smiled slyly and said: "Yes, it's not just a hundred years old, it can be two hundred or three hundred years old, but so what?"
"My family does not understand that human life is too short for us. He can only live to be over sixty years old, and I can live to several sixty years old, but he is still my most important friend.
Lifespan is not the key to friendship."
"We are like the dust of the world, walking between heaven and earth. No one knows who will leave first. All we long for is equal exchange of souls. So even if one of me is sixty years old, two of us, or even
Ten sixty years old, but he only has one sixty year old."
"But the sixty years of his existence are still the brightest and most important, enough to illuminate the long life of the Qingqiu Fox clan."
"After all, he accompanied me throughout his life."
The old-looking vixen stood up and gracefully bowed to Wei Yuan and Tiannu.
Looking at the elixir that can prolong life on the seat, I smashed it into pieces with a gentleman's stick.
The elixir bloomed the moment it came into contact with the air, like countless white flowers blooming, and then floated into the air, slowly turning into feathers of light and disappearing, a short-lived beauty. This is still extremely precious in this world where spiritual energy is resurrected.
The treasure just disappeared.
"I found this for my friend. When my friend is gone, it has no value."
"Thank you both for telling me he has left."
The old vixen put on his hat and said: "He is not in this city, and there is no need for me to come again."
"I will go to Qingqiu. I will leave the Qingqiu leaf to you two. You can use it to find the direction of Qingqiu."
"If you come, I will entertain you."
………………
Wei Yuan and Tiannu walked back to the museum.
The goddess suddenly said: "Mobile phones are really not a very good thing."
Wei Yuan was a little surprised and said: "Why?"
The girl frowned and thought: "Hu Ming's friend gave the book and Hu Ming's token to his grandson before he died, but because he could read the book on his mobile phone, he gave up such an opportunity easily. If
It was he who asked Hu Ming for the elixir to extend his life, and Hu Ming should not refuse."
"And a bookworm can only survive in books that are read seriously."
"Now that texts are recorded on mobile phones, bookworms and pulse readers will become less and less..."
Wei Yuan thought for a while and said: "That's not necessarily the case. There are still many people who like to read, and in this era, the number of people who can read is far more than in ancient times. Besides, the real purpose of mobile phones is to make people want to see each other but can't.
The people I meet connect with each other and get closer.”
The girl shook her head: "The distance is not getting closer."
She paused slightly, looked at Wei Yuan with bright eyes, and emphasized:
"In our time, even if we were far apart, we would go to see our friends when we wanted to, so it was a great pleasure to have friends come from far away. I was really happy. I was happy to have friends who were thinking of me.
, will come to find me, and arrive safely, I am happy to be able to see you again."
"Just like Hu Ming, he travels back and forth between Qingqiu and the world every three years. He spends most of his time on the road. If I miss you, I will go across the mountains and seas to see you. This is more important than text messages on mobile phones.
valuable."
Wei Yuan looked at the girl's bright eyes, thinking about the questions from thousands of years ago, and smiled:
"There is always a short distance, just like writing a letter can be easier, and sending a message can be easier."
"Closing the distance to people who are not so impatient that they have to see you, like 996."
The girl's brows widened. She was very curious about this era and said:
"Jiujiu stay?"
Wei Yuan smiled and said: "It is a specialty of this era that is not beautiful."
"Of course, it's better to meet the person you want to meet in person."
……………………
Hu Ming took a taxi to the airport in Quan City, intending to take a plane out of Quan City and head to the mountains and forests.
Then return to Qingqiu.
Check flights easily with your mobile phone.
A new flight message flashed by, but Hu Ming didn't pay attention.
A plane from the original Indian New World landed at Quan City Airport.
