Chapter 262: The Fox Marriage
"A fox with nine tails. The vine replied plainly and clearly.
Although Liu Mingkai was full of worries, he still couldn't help laughing, he had already guessed how the vine gold moss would answer, and it was really a big question, he shook his head and continued: "The nine-tailed fox not only has a few more tails than ordinary foxes, but also because they are demon races, they are born with ability and mana, and they are stronger than many races. It takes thousands of years for a vixen like me to cultivate to give birth to the Nine-Tails, and it has only reached the level of ability they had when they were born......"
"How can there be such a powerful race?" Even the vine gold moss showed a rare look of surprise, in his eyes, Liu Mingkai was already very powerful, and he couldn't imagine that there was a more powerful nine-tailed fox than him.
Anyway, whether it is a nine-tailed fox or a fox spirit, he is much more powerful than himself, and he has always believed that he was born weaker and incompetent than other monsters, so he always admires the powerful monsters very much.
"My master is the nine-tailed fox. Liu Mingkai looked at the manjin moss ostentatiously, and saw that he didn't react, so he had to continue his topic.
"Once, I was besieged by a few youkai who weren't quite great, but I was so young at the time that I was quickly knocked unconscious by them, and I thought I had been eaten by them. But when I woke up, I found myself sleeping in a warm bed, and the first person I saw was my future teacher, who smiled softly and said that I was 'such a poor child'. Speaking of this, Liu Mingkai's nose was a little sour, pretending to look elsewhere, and secretly wiped the corners of his eyes.
While listening to him, Manjin Moss frequently looked back at the Suzaku not far away.
"It's not too late for you to listen to me first and then go back!" Liu Mingkai grabbed him, "A couple of nine-tailed foxes rescued me, and when they went out to visit friends, they happened to pass by the place where I fainted, and when they saw a few monsters discussing how to eat a little fox, they relented for a while, so they took me, a child of the same clan, home. I was slowly recovering under their care, and I really didn't want to live that wandering life, so I begged them to take me in. ”
"I swear, when I was young, I didn't know the difference between the nine-tailed fox and the fox spirit, and I definitely didn't have the idea of climbing high, I just felt that the master and the master were very gentle and kind, I finally found the feeling of home after losing my parents since I was a child, I didn't want to lose all this, I didn't want to wander alone in the forest, I really didn't know that the nine-tailed fox was such a noble race, and it wouldn't easily take in a wild fox like me......" He probably received a lot of accusations and ridicule in the past because of that self-indulgent apprenticeship, so he didn't even explain it unconsciously when he told the vine gold moss.
Manjin Moss listened expressionlessly, Liu Mingkai clenched his fists and said for a long time before he suddenly realized his gaffe, and he hurriedly coughed.
After his mood stabilized, Liu Mingkai continued: "The clansmen next to me all persuaded the master not to accept me, even if I pity me and be helpless, at most take me in as a little servant, if I accept me as an apprentice, it will make everyone laugh at nothing." But the master and the master said that they were accustomed to everything* and that they did not need servants to serve them, and that even if they did, their own apprentices were more intimate than servants, so they still accepted me, and treated me very well, no different from their children and other apprentices, and nevertheless, my life was not easy, because my fellow disciples looked down on me......"
After Liu Mingkai told his experience, he felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, since he had reached this point, even if he couldn't bear it, there was no way out, right? Looking at the manjin moss who listened to him carefully, Liu Mingkai thought to himself, if the manjin moss knew what he was doing next, I don't know how he would react?
"My brothers and sisters are all nine-tailed foxes, although I don't show it in front of the master and my wife, but I can afford to look down on me as a wild fox behind my back, I started later than them, of course I learned things much slower than them, they laughed at me for being stupid, sometimes I learned spells faster than them and got praise from the master, and they would say behind my back that I was not from a good background, saying that a wild fox learned spells or a wild fox. Liu Mingkai recalled those days, and shook his head with a wry smile as he spoke.
At that time, except for the master and the master, he usually didn't even have anyone to talk to. Nominally, he is not a servant, but he does all the cleaning and cleaning things that the master tells his apprentices to do, and others will sneer on the side, saying that he was originally accepted as a servant, and he is not a good person and stupid, so what is the use of not even doing these rough jobs well. All this has changed since Bai Wei came.
"Bai Wei is my master's niece, she was still a little girl when she first came to my master's house, but she was born amazingly beautiful, my brothers and sisters were stunned when they saw her for the first time, first opened their mouths and stared at her non-stop, and then they rushed up and desperately offered their courtesy.
But I don't know why, Bai Wei didn't pay much attention to them, I kept hiding in an inconspicuous corner, but she greeted me first......" he said, a happy smile blooming on his face.
In fact, it was not that he was not fascinated by Bai Wei's charm and did not come forward to say hello, he knew his identity and knew that if he stepped forward to say hello, he would not gain anything other than the humiliation of his fellow disciples and the disregard of Bai Wei. But I didn't expect that because of that, it attracted the attention of Bai Wei, who would be surrounded by everyone wherever she went.
When Liu Mingkai said this, he looked at the indifferent manjin moss, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and thought to himself, thinking to himself, why am I telling him this? Isn't this equivalent to playing the piano to the cow? But as soon as he mentioned Bai Wei, he couldn't help but say excitedly:
Bai Wei said that she didn't like those proud people, she liked to talk to me and play with me. As our friendship deepened, she came to the master's house more often. She is so beautiful and lovely, the master and the classmates are very welcoming to her, thinking that she just likes to play with her peers, so she always runs here to stay and does not want to go back, only I know that she is here to find me.
With Bai Wei's life, I have a good and happy life, it doesn't matter if my fellow disciples like me or not, what does it matter if I can't learn the spells taught by my master, as long as Bai Wei is by my side, I feel relaxed and happy no matter what I do......
Later, when we grew up, one day Bai Wei suddenly came to me crying, saying that the master had come to her house to propose marriage and wanted to marry her to the master's eldest son. At that moment, my whole body froze.
Although the same disciples usually like to be courteous to Bai Wei, and as they grow older, they also directly confess that they want to marry her when they are old, but we have never thought about this, after all, the years of our monsters are much longer than that of humans, and Bai Wei and I have always thought that starting a family should still be a very distant thing.
But this matter suddenly came to an eye, I knew that I was from a humble background and was not worthy of Bai Wei, but I really liked her, and she only had me in her heart, if her parents agreed, what should we do? The person who went to propose marriage was my master again, what can we two juniors do, we can only wait for the arrangement of fate with tears in our eyes.
Fortunately, Bai Wei's parents did not rush to agree, they felt that their daughter was still young and wanted to ask their daughter what she thought, so we escaped this catastrophe.
Afterwards, I discussed with Bai Wei and felt that instead of worrying about it every day, it was better to explain the matter clearly to the elders. Her parents doted on her so much, and my master and sister treated me very well, they shouldn't mind the racial gap, maybe under our pleas, a moment of soft-heartedness will fulfill us. ”
Liu Mingkai sighed, looked at the mottled sky between the poplars above his head and smiled bitterly at himself:
"We were kids, so naïve. We think that our elders care and love us, so they will think about us from the bottom of their hearts and understand our hearts. We have forgotten that our elders have the rules of our elders, and no matter how much they love us, we must not violate their majesty as elders, and if we violate them, the consequences are unimaginable.
When we mentioned this to our respective elders, it immediately caused an uproar. Especially my master, he loves face, and the rejection of his personal proposal for his son was a very shameful thing for him. I didn't expect that the source of this matter was actually on his apprentice, and I didn't know whether I was alive or dead, and I ran to him and said it, and the consequences can be imagined.
The master was furious, saying that I was a brute who did not repay my kindness, that I was a toad who wanted to eat swan meat, and that I did not look at my origin. I think the master must have been angry at the time, so he didn't choose what to say. But when I heard it in my ears, my heart was very uncomfortable.
I always thought that at least the master and the lady would not care about my background. Plus Bai Wei, with the approval of the three of them, it is enough, I don't care what the other nine-tailed foxes think of me. But the master's words were like a knife poking at my heart, and it turned out that he thought the same way, but he didn't say it because he took pity on me.
This time, even the master who has always loved me did not speak for me, after all, I messed up her son's marriage. I was locked up in the firewood room by my master, and I vaguely heard my classmates talk about Bai Wei who was also locked up by her parents. She fell in love with a wild fox, and her parents were no less angry than my master. In a fit of anger, I agreed to her marriage to my senior brother.
Bai Wei's personality is very strong, not only did she not comply, but she also cut off her hair, saying that she wanted to convert to Buddhism and become a nun. Her parents were so frightened by her that they didn't dare to rush her into getting engaged, but they still locked her up at home.
