CHAPTER XXIII

The moonlight flowed like water in every corner of the fox village.

I walked alone on the path at the head of the village, carrying my baggage.

The mountain breeze of Pigpen Mountain on a summer night was cold, and there were bursts of noisy sounds blowing past my ears.

It was under the big locust tree in the middle of the village, where the male foxes rested after a day's work.

Spirits that transform into humans always unconsciously imitate human behavior, even their habits.

The foxes of the fox village are just like the people of the human village, the women cook and wash, and the men provide for the family.

During the day, the male foxes of the fox village will go out to earn a ration for their wives and children, and when they return home at night, after dinner, they will gather under the big locust tree and grind their teeth and fight like humans, burping and farting.

The black-haired old fox would sit in the crowd and talk about the ancients at this time, attracting a bunch of funny people to listen to it with relish. I used to listen to it when I was fine.

When I go to the world in the future, I will never hear it again.

I looked back in amazement, and then walked towards the persimmon tree at the head of the village.

The sound of the waterfall could be heard in the distance.

The stream of Pigpen Mountain turns around on the cliff at the head of the fox village, forming a waterfall that is not big or small, and under the waterfall is a clear pool, and the persimmon tree grows on the low hill by the pool.

For example, Aunt Hua said that if you want to go to the world, you must pass through this persimmon tree.

I think how many persimmons I ate on this persimmon tree in the first place, but I didn't know that the exit was on this tree!

I tied the little burden tightly to my shoulders, and climbed up with my hands and feet, and soon climbed the branches of the persimmon tree.

I rolled over and sat down on the tree, and then waited quietly with my baggage.

As Aunt Hua said, every night, when the yin and yang of heaven and earth alternate, the passage from the fox village to the world will be opened.

That way I can leave the fox village without much effort.

Of course, those vixens who are strong in Taoism are not limited by this kind of time. They can use their mana to open the way to the world anytime, anywhere.

However, Aunt Ruhua said that it was a waste of mana, and a little fox like me, who had not practiced for a few years, might not be able to do it with all his might.

So, I can only wait obediently.

It was late at night, the mountain wind was blowing, and I couldn't help but shiver.

The sound of frolicking under the locust tree gradually dispersed.

It's really the dead of night!

I don't know if the night in the world is also so lively!

I hugged my arms and muttered, then curled up on the fork of the tree to take a nap. I'm going to have a while, so I'll talk about it for a while.

I put my burden behind my head, and just as I was about to close my eyes, I saw a light flickering on the path leading to the village in the distance.
