Chapter 66: The End of the World is close at hand
The afternoon sun shines through the dense leaf crevices on the forest shade path.
Stepping on the thick layer of dead leaves, it will make a "zizi" sound. The freshness of the mountains and grasses is refreshing. The call of the birds in the forest sounds particularly pleasant. The happy thing is Xiaobai, in this uninhabited forest path, alone with the master, as if returning to the years of following Mu Weilai many years ago. It's just that at that time, it was more Mu Weilai who relied on Xiaobai. And now Xiaobai relies on the phantom night.
Xiaobai looked up and secretly looked at the phantom night. I saw the face that closely resembled the previous owner, and the dark eyes were still staring firmly ahead.
It was these eyes that made the desperate Xiaobai feel infinite hope.
If time can stop, how much hope Xiaobai has, time will always stay at this moment!
Xiaobai's sweet dream didn't last long, because His Royal Highness the fox came to the dragon, and he had already been seen by the fox people who were on guard. So, before Phantom Night and Xiaobai came out of the woods, Jingqiu and Solstice brought a group of fox people to greet them.
Jingqiu's official rhetoric as always, saying that he didn't know that His Highness was coming, that he was disappointed, and that he hoped to forgive me.
Only Solstice retains the innocence of the year, and there is no trace of worldly impurities in his clear eyes. This is also related to the fact that he never intervenes in the affairs of the clan and only concentrates on learning the piano.
After the Full Moon Dance Festival, Kitsune officially met Phantom Night for the first time. Although they know that the tempering of nine deaths and a lifetime has made their fox highness different from what it used to be. In those clear eyes, more perseverance was precipitated. is still a thin figure, but there is an indescribable peaceful and elegant temperament, unfathomable fearlessness and strength, so that the fox people dare not speak lightly when they see it.
The most surprising thing for the fox man was the white fox in Phantom Night's hand.
"Isn't this Lord Shenlong Xiaobai?" Solstice asked in surprise.
The dragon Xiaobai, the red fox clan is unknown to everyone, and no one worships it. Changfeng Mountain even has an enchantment set by Xiaobai, and ordinary demons and monsters cannot invade, so it is to protect the Red Fox people who have lived here without wind and rain for sixteen years.
"He's a novice indeed." Phantom Night simply admitted, lowered his head and said softly to Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, it seems that there are a lot of old people here, don't you say hello to everyone?" He also took into account the relationship between Mu Weilai and the Red Fox Clan in the past, so Xiaobai was also very familiar with the Red Fox Clan.
Unexpectedly, the little white eye didn't even glance at the fox man, and lazily rubbed the phantom night, and pretended to sleep with his eyes on.
"I'm sorry, Xiaobai may be too tired, so he doesn't want to talk." Phantom Night said softly, and his hand involuntarily stroked the white fox. He naively believed that Xiaobai was tired. I still feel guilty and think that it is very difficult to fly in the sky with a person, it seems that there is no big urgency in the future, so don't let Xiaobai get tired easily.
In fact, Xiaobai just disdains to talk to sophisticated fox people!
Seeing this, the fox man was dumbfounded!
Who doesn't know, that arrogant Xiaobai only has Mu Weilai in his heart, and no one cares about it. However, the scene in front of them is clearly that their fox highness has subdued the dragon Xiaobai well, like a pet!
His Highness the Fox is really not deep and unfathomable......
All of a sudden, the fox man was more in awe of the phantom night and behaved more attentively.
The fox people are extremely beautiful, only the winter solstice does not have the slightest utilitarian heart, and simply greets: "Your Highness, can you have a good time during this time?" I think you've lost a little bit of weight...... Take good care of yourself. ”
I can fully feel the sincerity in Solstice's eyes. Phantom Night is always cold to the fox people, but it is especially gentle to the solstice. He smiled slightly, and said to Zhidong lightly, "Xie Lu, thank you for your concern." Maybe it's because I'm tired from living here. I'm on a trip to the Sky Tower. It was during this journey that I met Xiaobai. ”
"It must have been an extraordinary experience." Making eye contact with Phantom Night, Solstice blushed shyly.
The solstice of childhood grew up in Mu Weilai's care. Solstice regards Mu Weilai as a gentle big brother and relies on Mu Weilai very much. After Mu Weilai's death, it hit Solstice hard. In the past sixteen years, Solstice has been intoxicated by the music that Mu Weilai taught him. It seems that only in that kind of music can Solstice feel the gentle breath of Mu Weilai.
In fact, at first glance, Solstice felt that the phantom night was like Mu Weilai. It's just that at that time, the fox people were blinded by hatred and thought that the resemblance was just accidental.
In the countless nights after the dance festival, Solstice often held his cheeks and looked at the moon in reverie, whether the phantom night would be Mu Weilai's reincarnation. He also often secretly ran to the haunted house of the yellow warbler chirping in Taoyuanju, and when he peeked at people from afar, his little heart was pounding.
And now, watching Phantom Night hugging the white fox, this feeling of solstice is even stronger.
Even if Phantom Night is not his reincarnation, watching such a similar person live well in front of him is like seeing that person still alive and well. In this way, the solstice is already satisfied.
Phantom Night naturally didn't know the thoughts of the Solstice, but simply thought that this fox boy did not have the worldliness and utilitarianism of other fox people, and it was easier and happier to get along, so every time he looked at the Solstice, his eyes were also extremely gentle.
The purpose of Phantom Night's trip was not to be relaxed and happy, he just wanted to see his mother and Aunt Xiang as soon as possible. When asked about their situation, the fox man knew everything and said everything.
It is true that Hongling wants to inherit the position of the fox god, and Leng Xiang will serve as a god and accompany the fox god for a long time.
The Red Fox Clan has lost the fox god for hundreds of years. The ceremony will be very solemn. Hongling has to fast and bathe for seven days, and the ritual has to be carried out for seven consecutive days. During this time, no one was allowed to see anyone but the patriarch and the gods.
The fox man took the phantom night to the fox temple, saying that the ceremony of Hongling succeeding the fox god was carried out in the Yanwang Palace. Crossing the threshold of the Fox Temple, revisiting the old place, the phantom night has mixed feelings. Thinking that on that day, the demon insects surrounded and suppressed Changfeng Mountain, and it was Mu Weilai's former maid Qing'er who brought herself here, obtained the Fuxi Qin, and repelled the demon insects. Today, the peach blossoms are still there, and the beauty is not there.
The fox temple is divided into three halls. The front hall is the Qingyin Palace, the middle hall is the fox mother hall, and the apse is the Yanwang Palace.
From a distance, I saw that many fox people were standing in front of the Yanwang Palace with solemn expressions, looking on strict alert. The door of the Yanwang Palace was closed, and no one was allowed to enter. Mother and Aunt Xiang are inside!
Although with his own strength, he broke in, and the fox man couldn't stop it. But if you do this, your mother and Aunt Xiang will be angry, right?
So, Phantom Night had to stop there.
A door away, close at hand, but far away in the world!
Knowing that he couldn't see his mother today, regret and loss, Phantom Night wanted to walk around the fox temple casually, so he made the fox people retreat......
