Chapter 4: The Demon Fox Awakens

The snow finally stopped, but the sky was filled with dark clouds, black and pressing, as if the sky was about to collapse, and gusts of wind swept away, blowing away plum blossoms, wrapped in snow particles and scattered in all directions.

Lin Zhi, who was making clothes in front of the door, hurriedly entered the house, closed the door, and looked at the path outside through the gap in the window.

"Grandma! Grandma open the door! ”

Hearing the immature voice outside the door, she hurriedly opened the door, and it was Qi Xianglin's grandfather and grandson.

beckoned the two into the house, took off their cloaks, squatted down and wrapped themselves around their granddaughter, looked at her red little face, and said with distress in her eyes: "I have to go into the mountain with your grandfather, this will freeze." ”

Shaking her head, Qi Yue stepped forward and hugged her grandmother tightly, and said, "Grandma, I'm fine." ”

patted his granddaughter, "Good boy, I know you are sensible." After that, he got up and pulled Qi Yue to sit by the fire, turned his head to look at Qi Xianglin, motioned for him to sit over, and asked, "Why did you come back so early today, I just saw that the sky had changed, and I was worried that you were raining." ”

Putting down the herbal basket, Qi Xianglin sat down around the stove, poured two cups of hot tea, handed them to the mother-in-law and grandson, and said: "I met the third elder on the way, and the eldest brother asked him to send me a letter, so he didn't go into the mountain to collect medicine. ”

Lin Zhi exclaimed: "Did the Third Elder embarrass you, when I was at home before, I didn't target us less. ”

Shaking his head, Qi Xianglin took out the letter, bit his index finger and squeezed out a drop of blood and dropped it on the envelope, and the golden light flashed in the room in an instant, and a row of handwriting appeared.

It was written: The soul guard was lost, and there were traitors in the family who colluded with the Tang family and returned to Beijing as soon as possible.

"Grandpa, what is the Guardian?" Qi Yue wondered.

Qi Xianglin sighed heavily, there were actually people in the clan who colluded with foreign clans, the Tang family itself was lying in troubled waters, and now it was involved in the loss of the guardian spirit, I was afraid that the status of the eldest brother was also shaky, and this Qi family was no longer the Qi family of the year.

Picking up the hot tea, he drank it all, looked at his granddaughter and said, "Every family has a guardian spirit, our Qi family's five elements are the best, and the guardian spirit is a ginkgo tree spirit that has been refined for seven thousand years. ”

"It's so powerful, wouldn't it be a mess for the Qi family if you lose it." Qi Yue exclaimed.

Lin Zhi on the side was also full of gloom, and said worriedly: "Then when will we return to Beijing?" ”

Qi Xianglin waved his hand, frowned, and said, "I'll leave tomorrow, you and Qi Yue stay at home, and I'll go back quickly." ”

I heard that the old man planned to return to Beijing alone, although she understood that he didn't want her and Qi Yue to be in danger together, but why wasn't she worried about him. Smacked his lips, but the words that came to his mouth were never spoken.

looked at her grandmother's lonely expression, and there was worry in her eyes that couldn't be hidden. Qi Yue patted her hand obediently, and rubbed her head against her shoulder to show comfort.

The atmosphere in the room was heavy for a while.

"Boom", there was a sudden thunder and lightning outside the window, breaking this solemn color.

Qi Xianglin got up suddenly, strode forward, and pushed open the hidden window. The wind blew his gray hair, and even more dazzling Qi Yue's eyes, and hurriedly shrunk into his grandmother's arms.

Seeing this, Lin Zhi hurriedly covered his granddaughter's ears with both hands.

But Qi Yue covered his eyes with one hand, showing his fingers and looking at the scene outside the window, the whole person was stunned.

Outside the window, the barrier of the side room has been broken, and the blue demonic energy that envelops the fox has been exposed to the wind and lightning with it at some point. In just a few days, the demonic qi actually formed a lotus shape, protecting the fox tightly. Above its head, the Dao Heavenly Thunder converged, as thick as a large disk.

"Boom!" The thunder of the sky slashed, and the thunder slashed straight into the demonic qi "Zila", and the lightning of the Tao was entrenched on the surface of the "lotus", and the "lotus" was still expanding, as if it was going to suck the thunder out of the sky. Above its head, the second time the thunderbolts converged, and this time it was even larger.

Qi Xianglin's expression was solemn, and he became more and more worried, this demon fox actually absorbed the heavenly thunder for his own use...... If it is not stopped, its demonic power is unimaginable.

When I was about to do it, there was a "boom" again, and the thunder fell and fell on the "lotus", only to hear the sound of "click", a crack cracked from the tip of the flower, and then countless cracks collapsed.

The blue light mixed with the lightning seemed to burst, and the dark clouds above the head converged to form a whirlpool, several electric snakes intertwined, "boom", the thunder split down again, and the "lotus" was completely shattered. At the same time, the thunder also receded like a tide, and the rain poured down.

The blue light dissipated, and the demon fox gradually appeared.

Qi Yue was dumbfounded.

It was a fox with extremely white fur, even slightly emitting a moonlight halo, and a little blue fluff on the tips of its ears, which made it look very different. The five big tails behind him shook gently, standing quietly in the heavy rain, but not a drop of rain wet its hair. Its eyes were as clear as water, and it looked at the little girl in the house quietly, its eyes met, and its emotions were undercurrent.

She felt in her heart that this fox, looking at it more would make people feel that it was a desecration of its purity.

On the contrary, Qi Xianglin and his wife on the side looked serious and had a sense of anxiety about the impending disaster.

This fox feels extremely pure, but it is not comparable to those bloody and evil monsters I saw thirteen years ago.

It can't detect a trace of demonic energy all over its body, and it absorbs the heavenly thunder for its own use, and it also has five tails, so it must be not shallow, and he Qi Xianglin is afraid that it will be difficult to defeat.

Licked the corners of his somewhat chapped mouth, looked at the fox, clenched his fists slightly, and said solemnly: "We saved Your Excellency, which is considered a grace, and now that Your Excellency's injuries are better, please leave quickly." ”

Hearing this, the tips of the fox's ears moved slightly, tilted his head to look at the window railing, his eyes were as clear as a mirror, and he shook the five snow-white tails behind him, the halo flickered, and he suddenly transformed into the original appearance. The whole body is snow-white, with the signature blue fluff on the tips of the ears, and only the snow-white tail remains.

Jumped smartly and went up to the windowsill.

I never thought that the demon fox had changed his body, and he jumped forward and leaned so close, Qi Xianglin was shocked, and retreated again and again, blocking in front of Lin Zhi and the others. Immediately, the spiritual power in his hand flipped over, and he scolded loudly: "Demon fox, Hugh hurts people!" ”

The fox "whined" twice, unmoved, and lay on the windowsill, his clean eyes swept towards the little girl in the house, looking thoughtful, and the snow-white tail behind him shook from side to side.

The couple looked at each other. For a while, I was a little confused, the demon fox was menacing at the beginning, why did he look harmless to humans and animals now.

As if time forbidden, the three people in the room stood in place, only Qi Xianglin was on guard, staring straight at the demon fox just in case.

Behind him, Qi Yue couldn't help but be curious, quietly poked out half of his head, looked at the leisurely fox on the windowsill, and saw that its eyes were clean and there was no evil intentions, he grabbed his grandfather's arm and persuaded him: "Grandpa, you see that it doesn't seem to have malicious intentions. ”

Retracting the spiritual power in his hand, Qi Xianglin nodded and said, "I don't feel that it has the intention of killing, and it doesn't seem to understand human language, its expression is dull, it should have no malice." ”

An idea flashed in his heart, and Qi Yue asked tentatively: "Grandpa, since it has no malice, do you want to stay?" ”

"Stay!?" The couple exclaimed, their faces hesitant.

Looking at this demon fox's stupid and discordant appearance, it is not impossible to stay. Tomorrow he will return to Beijing, I don't know when he will be able to come back, her grandmother is not a cultivator, the two of them are at home in case there are three long and two short, there is this demon fox, there is also a foil.

Brushing his beard, Qi Xianglin said: "That's it, as long as it has no malice, let's stay." ”

With permission, Qi Yue smiled happily and squinted her eyes, and strode towards the fox, wanting to take it down. At the same time, the fox leaped into her arms, curled up his tail in a comfortable position, pillowed his arms, closed his eyes, and fell asleep.

The fox's sudden closeness caught her off guard, so she held it in her arms and froze in place. But the warm and soft touch in her hand made her only feel warm in her heart, and she seemed to have all the happy things in an instant. Even she didn't realize it, and the eyes that looked at the fox in her arms seemed to contain a sea of stars, flickering with light.

Looking at their granddaughter like this, Qi Xianglin and his wife looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

This fox broke their previous perception that the demon clan had always been evil, everything in the world has a spirit, as long as it keeps to itself and has no evil intentions, it can protect her well if it stays by Qi Yue's side, and it can be very useful for her current situation.

He, Qi Xianglin, was indeed selfish about leaving the demon fox......

What a few people didn't know was that the fox's ears trembled slightly, and it seemed that it had closed its eyes but was not asleep, on the contrary, its heart was like a mirror.

Why not stay in the human race for the time being, this little girl named Qi Yue is like a moving source of spiritual energy to him, staying by her side to cultivate is twice the result with half the effort. Besides, the blood that saved him that day, the girl accidentally cut her finger and fell into his mouth, which is very important for him to recover from his serious injury this time......
