Chapter II

The day was getting brighter, and after the scholar dressed and washed, he came to the hall of the inn. ”

After the scholar had breakfast, he asked Xiao Er: "Little Second Brother, do you know where this 'Jinling Village' is." ”

After hearing this, Xiao Er's face became a little unspeakably strange, and then he asked: "Childe, how do you know what 'Jinling Village' is doing?"

The scholar heard Xiao Er say this, and realized that there was indeed a place called 'Jinling Village', and Xiao Er might know something. But seeing that Xiao Er's face was so strange, he suddenly had a sense of ominousness, and he didn't want to ask again, but he had already agreed, so he had to panic and continued: "Ah, little second brother, that, I have a distant relative who lives in that 'Jinling Village', and I haven't been in contact for many years, so I want to visit." ”

After hearing this, Xiao Er said: "Childe, don't blame the villain for being nosy, the villain knows that the son is blessed, his life is big, and his creation is great, but this 'Jinling Village' son can't go." ”

The scholar hurriedly asked, "Why is that?"

Xiao Er said: "This, what happened in this 'Jinling Village', I don't know very well, but it has been abandoned for many years, and now it is a mass grave, and the people in the village say that, 'haunted', even the beasts dare not approach, Gongzi's distant relatives must not be there for a long time, it is better to persuade Gongzi not to go." ”

Do you give up... No way. (My mother always taught me to be honest, and to keep my word for what I have promised, not to mention that woman is so pitiful, but I hope to be worthy of my heart and do my best.) )

The scholar then asked: "Little second brother, do you know, who knows more about 'Jinling Village'?"

Xiao Er replied: "Childe, if you really want to know about the past of 'Jinling Village', there may be only one person who can tell Childe, and that is Uncle Qiao, who was originally a 'native of Jinling Village' and later moved to the mountains. ”

The scholar asked: "I ask the second brother, where is Uncle Qiao now, how can Xiaosheng find it?"

Xiao Er replied: "Son, you can go out and turn right and go straight, out of the village, turn left and keep walking, the road meets a stream, go up the mountain along the stream, and then walk on the mountain road for half a day, you can see where Uncle Qiao lives." ”

The scholar said: "Xiaosheng has thanked the second brother here." took out the silver taels and handed them to Xiao Er, and then strode out of the store and walked towards the entrance of the village.

The scholar walked quickly to the entrance of the village, and according to Xiao Er's words, he went straight to the left, and after half an hour, he saw a stream, which was clear and crystal clear, like a piece of flowing crystal glass. Beneath it were fine grains of sand, crumbling pebbles. The pebbles are smooth and slippery, the sand grains are yellow and shiny, and the water flows down from the mountains. The scholar walked up the river for a while, but still did not see the house, and walked towards the deep mountains,...

At this time, it was already sunset, and the scholar muttered, "It's getting dark, why haven't you seen the house yet?"

At this time, Liu Yue'e's voice sounded in the scholar's mind: "Childe, there is Lao Gongzi to hold on a little longer." ”

The scholar was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Girl, you can rest assured, Xiaosheng will do his best to do what he promised the girl." ”

Okay, pull your legs and continue to move forward, and after a while, Liu Yue's voice sounded in the scholar's mind again, "Childe, there seems to be some voice."

The scholar listened carefully, and sure enough, there was a sound of 'wooing' from a distance, which was very desolate.

The scholar looked for the voice and walked over. When I got closer, I saw a snow-white fox lying on the ground, one of its hind legs caught in the 'trap', and blood was still flowing out of the trap from time to time. It was very pitiful, and the scholar felt pity and wanted to save it, so he strode forward, and the scholar saw the fox's eyes, which squinted and looked very soft in the moonlight, like a girl with all kinds of charms, beautiful and incomprehensible, full of spirit, blinking from time to time, as if asking him for help. On the occasion of the gods, the jade emitted a bright red light, and the scholar was wrapped in it at once, Liu Yue'e appeared next to the scholar, pulled down the scholar's arm and said: "Childe, be careful, that is the fox demon's 'soul hooking eye'." The scholar suddenly came to his senses.

Liu Yue'e said to the fox demon: "Childe kindly came to save you, why do you want to use 'witchcraft' on Childe!"

The fox demon said: "The slave family doesn't know who the son is, and I am really sorry for misunderstanding the son, but the slave family has no intention of hurting people, I just want to borrow the hand of the son to open this clip, and the son will save me." ”

The scholar was a little hesitant at this time, thinking of such a cute fox, and so pitiful, it turned out to be a fox demon, should it be saved? He took the fox demon into his arms, used 'herbs' to stop the bleeding, and tore a piece of cloth from under his clothes to bandage it.

The fox demon in his arms stood up slightly, and after walking a few steps, he left the scholar and turned back and said, "The great kindness of the son, the slave family will repay it." Then he got into the grass.

(Fox Demon - As the name suggests, the monster transformed by the fox, in folklore, the fox can cultivate into an immortal, turn into a human form, and interact with people.) The fox is a cunning animal, and the myths and legends say that the fox cultivates for thousands of years and gets nine tails, so there are legends such as the hundred-year-old fox cultivating as a beauty and the thousand-year-old fox predicting the future. )
