Chapter 4 Something Seems Wrong
"I know ...... this"
Xia Ran said calmly, he had already sensed that a special aura was rapidly approaching him, not a familiar magic power, but another energy reaction, which was very similar to the essence of demon power but was different.
However, this was originally expected, Jimo seems to be no big deal here, but in fact, there are two scattered immortals.
One is a mountain god and the other is a fairy beast...... And the unabashedly sweeping over of his spiritual power just now will definitely alarm these two.
It's just that it should be the fox fairy who came now, the third master of the fox worshiped by the locals, and the mountain god doesn't seem to be in Jimo at all. This discovery made Xia Ran not in a good mood, he probably knew what time period it was, and it was basically the late stage of the main story......
Because only when the protagonists of the four generations came to Jimo, a series of plots occurred - the mountain god would leave the fishing village with his daughter and start traveling the world.
There is only one fox third master left here in Jimo, but under the premise of being taught a lesson by the protagonist group and his party, even if the mountain god has left, he is ready to shrink his tail and be a man.
Since there is only one of the original two scattered immortals here, and only the third fox master is left in Jimo, it means that it is very likely that the protagonist group and his party have already come to Jimo and taken away a cold weapon.
- It's not a good time, it feels like it's going to be turbulent......
At the moment when he was thinking like this, a figure suddenly appeared not far in front of him, as if it had suddenly emerged from the earth.
“……!!”
Saber was very vigilant, his slender fingers clenching the invisible weapon, and he pressed a little harder, and the other party looked like a half-grown teenager with clear eyebrows, but pointed ears, and a few shaggy fox tails behind him.
Genie? No, no, it's supposed to be a so-called youkai, right?
The girl was keenly aware of the trouble of this inhuman thing in front of her, although there was no flinch or fear, but her expression was still solemn, and the warning of her intuition made her understand that this was a strong enemy.
Really.
The background of this era is close to the world of the gods, and it is simply Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, how long has it been since he entered the mission world to encounter an enemy of this level?
Probably sensing the sharp sword-like aura on Artoria's body, the fox fairy was also a little vigilant to maintain a certain distance, staring at the two strangely dressed "people" in front of him, and asked unceremoniously-
"Who are you? What are you doing here? ”
"This great immortal is polite, we have no malicious intentions...... Haven't asked for your first name yet? Xia Ran blinked at first, but he had already quickly cleaned up his mood, and by the way, he raised his hand and made a somewhat nondescript gesture.
Originally, I was going to speak in a more literate way, but after thinking about it, I felt that it was better to forget it, it was not good to be too deliberate, and it was okay to be so natural......
And it seems that the third master of the fox does not look like a demon fairy who is too cultured, and if he says too much, he may not understand.
"Ahem, that's easy to say, Benda...... This great immortal is the fox fairy enshrined in the local fox fairy temple, you call me the fox three queens...... Ahem, just call me Fox San......"
The third master of the fox was stunned for a moment, and then he pretended to cough a few times, and introduced himself a little flutteringly.
This great immortal call was very useful to him, especially when the polite other party seemed to be a very powerful cultivator.
This made him fully feel that his demon personality was respected and his self-realization needs were satisfied...... All in all, it was the first time that the demon had been treated like this, and the person in front of him suddenly made him feel cordial.
"It turned out to be the three fox immortals in front of him, it's really disrespectful...... Excuse me, is this Jimo? We have no malicious intentions, we just have one important thing to do this time......" Xia Ran continued to play his acting skills, pretending that he didn't know what kind of person the fox fairy in front of him was, just politely.
At the same time, the powerful spiritual power silently diffused out, and the incomparably gentle diffuse enveloped the surroundings, plucking the strings of emotions, slowly eliminating vigilance and vigilance, and amplifying the emotions that were beneficial to him in other aspects.
On the side, Saber had a blank expression, and there was a trace of confusion on her delicate little face, although she didn't know which one her master was singing, but she also understood that the situation was probably impossible to fight at the moment.
However, the sword of victory of the oath in her hand was not put away, and she was still vigilant enough.
The third master didn't suspect anything, he smiled happily, and tried hard to show off his ability in a flat tone:
"This is naturally Jimo, if you have anything to do, you can talk about it, if it's troublesome, or I can help you, I can't say...... After all, this university ...... Ben Daisen still has some ability in the local area. ”
"This ......" Xia Ran hesitated slightly, not so happy as if he was waiting for the other party here, and agreed to it, which would make this fox feel wrong.
This fox fairy named the third master of the fox is also best at means such as illusion and mind, but Xia Ran's attainments in this area are much stronger, plus the third master of the fox is completely unfamiliar with him, and he knows the third master of the fox well, so he dares to walk the tightrope directly as soon as he comes up.
But no matter how unguarded the third master is, he is not really a fool, and Xia Ran can't really treat the other party as a puppet or NPC, and he will not have any suspicion if he says any strange words or does some strange behavior.
The third master of the fox was a little unhappy when he boarded: "What? Don't you believe in this great ...... What is Ben Daisen's ability? ”
"Not really, it's just ...... Well, it's actually like this......"
Xia Ran pretended to be embarrassed to think about it, and said to the other party, "We came here this time to find a legendary cold weapon, which is said to have appeared here in Jimo in the East China Sea hundreds of years ago......"
"Hikari Hantu?!" Before the magician's words were finished, the third master fox's eyes lit up and he spoke first.
Although he put gold on his face, the third master of the fox was still a little worried in his heart, in case the other party's affairs were really troublesome, and he couldn't do it at all, wouldn't he be sorry for the cowhide he just blew out?
But after the other party spoke, the fox immediately breathed a sigh of relief, he may not know anything else, but if it was a cold weapon that wandered here in Jimo hundreds of years ago, he just knew it.
"Exactly."
Xia Ran didn't blush or pant at all, he was actually not interested in cold weapons or anything at all, he just found a random reason to explain why the two of them came to Jimo.
Although he didn't come to Jimo specifically, but was randomly put nearby when he entered the world, this statement is still forgotten, and the other party definitely doesn't believe it.
Just use the excuse of looking for a cold device, which is completely reasonable...... Anyway, now that the mountain god has also left Jimo, the cold weapon has probably been taken away by Yuntianhe, so there is no need to worry about the impact of this excuse.
"If that's the case, then I can really help......"
The third master of the fox immediately became triumphant, feeling that this opportunity was just the right opportunity to show off his ability, he shook his head and deliberately sold Guanzi-
"Because Ben Daisen just knows where that cold weapon is! I've seen it several times before......"
"Please also ask the three fox immortals to give advice!"
Just like the development direction that Xia Ran wants to see the most, it is so smooth that it is even a little too much, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that this development is not too difficult to understand.
Because this fox is not strictly bad, all the pranks he does are more like trying to attract other people's attention.
It's just that he doesn't know how to show off his ability, he can only show off his ability by playing tricks on the local people, and what does he say, "It's not interesting to become an immortal and not be able to play tricks on mortals as you like"......
The magician originally thought that as long as he grasped this point and made a fuss, although he could make him dizzy and obedient to such an exaggeration without saying it immediately, it could greatly eliminate hostility and avoid unnecessary conflicts.
Just like now, the politeness and respect shown by the real cultivators made the third master of the fox almost unable to find the north, as if he had a sense of excitement to be recognized, especially when he found out that the other party might even ask for himself, he immediately tried to prove his ability......
- Probably because you've been suffocated for too long? After all, it's really boring to always play tricks on Shengdou Xiaomin.
This fox himself is also well aware of this, so now that he finds that there really seems to be a serious opportunity to show himself and show off, his heart is like a monkey scratching, and he can't hold it back at all.
In addition, Xia Ran is still carefully sensing and distinguishing the emotional changes of the third fox master in front of him, and using the power of the mind accurately and nuciently, he can quietly grasp the psychology of the other party and easily mobilize the other party's emotions, it is not surprising that there is such a performance.
The magician, who controls the rhythm of the dialogue and pushes the whole thing with one hand, also feels a little funny.
It's no wonder that this guy would do those childish and angry things in the original plot, and he felt like a child who hadn't grown up......
"That's easy to say...... Let me tell you, in addition to this great immortal, there is another scattered immortal in the local area, who is the mountain god in the nearby mountains, who always conceals his identity and pretends to be a mortal, and lives here in Jimo......"
At this time, the third master of the fox pointed to the fishing village in the distance behind him and said angrily: "I only turned into a scholar not long ago, and the light Ji Hantu is in his hand." ”
"Then the three fox immortals, can you introduce us and others?" Xia Ran hurriedly asked, acting as if he was really here for the cold weapon.
"This ...... Not for the time being, that guy is not in Jimo now, it seems that he is out to do something. The third master shook his head with some regret.
Xia Ran suddenly looked disappointed, but he knew this in his heart, it seemed that Xia Yuanchen's decision to leave Jimo with his daughter had not been told to this fox, and this fox didn't know what he had done before to force away his old rival who was also an enemy and a friend.
"But don't worry, when he left a few days ago, he went to my temple to ask me to take care of the local villagers, and he also said that he would come back in half a month at most......"
Seeing the disappointment of the cultivator in front of him, the third master of the fox was a little worried that the other party would think that he was bragging, and when he really wanted to see the real chapter, he would find an excuse to prevaricate, so he hurriedly patted his chest and assured.
Hey?
Xia Ran was slightly stunned, and suddenly felt that something was not right, and he asked tentatively, "That...... I wonder if there is anyone else in this mountain god's family? Since you have become a mortal, you should start a family, right? ”
"No, he only became a scholar two months ago, and his previous identity was just old and dead...... the fox said without thinking.
“……”
“……”
The magician's expression froze.
