The body of the princely raccoon is a huge tanuki, the number of this kind of raccoon cats is extremely rare, plus they used to live in the god domain as the pet beast of the gods, so their status in the demon world is also very high.

So far, it seems that there is only one prince left in the Giant Raccoon clan, and he has not been able to marry a wife or have children because he has complied with the rules of the clan that he cannot marry with foreign tribes. He inherited the throne from his father about 300 years ago, and then lived alone in the mansion left by his father, enjoying the glory and wealth, and getting drunk on money, making his spiritual world more and more empty.

As a young man, he was addicted to wine and often entertained guests in his mansion, but even if they talked and laughed with him on the surface, they were friends with wine and flesh after all, and could not be spiritually attached to him. When he sobered up, his relationship with them was shattered, and he was left with himself in the empty mansion.

Later, he began to travel alone, and his original plan was to visit all the corners and corners of the demon world, and then draw a map of the demon world that was more detailed than all the maps so far. When he had this belief, his life suddenly had meaning.

One man and one horse, galloping through vast plains, rugged mountains, and bustling towns...... Every scenery, even a flower and a grass, can make him realize the true meaning of life, but what really makes his soul find a home is a small post station called Sizhu.

The inn was in a large bamboo forest, and compared to the other inns, the all-wooden building looked a little shabby, and there were few rooms inside, so there were not many people staying there. However, the prince was fascinated by the scenery and decided to stay for one night before leaving.

In the space reserved for guests to eat and drink, one wall is completely open, and when the weather is nice, the boss will remove the wooden planks from that wall so that guests can go out onto the terrace and enjoy the scenery behind the station.

The lilac sky, the emerald bamboo, and the various small birds that fall on the terrace from time to time form a beautiful picture, but the most beautiful thing is when the moon is bright at night, picking up a pot of old wine and sitting on the balcony against the pillar, it will make people feel that the troubles and pains have disappeared without a trace.

It was in this place that he and Mrs. Lan met, all kinds of beautiful women and monsters, he has seen not a few, the women in the demon world know how to use their own advantages, to show the charm to the extreme, only this woman is dressed in men's clothes, and her gestures reveal a heroic spirit, which is naturally unforgettable.

Just as he was sitting alone under the starry sky, leaning against the pillar and savoring the wine he was holding, the woman sat down next to him without asking, put the three jars of wine she was holding in her arms between them, and said, "Brother, although the beauty of the good day is good, do you have to share it with others!" ”

With the noble status of the prince and the royal fox, few people dared to talk to him like this, and he was just about to get angry, but he raised his eyes and forgot about the other party, and when he saw the true evidence of the woman's face, he had to shake his head, determined not to pay attention to her.

"What?!" But the woman put her face close to him, looked at it carefully, and then sighed, "Alas, what a pity, this brother seems to be a talent, but he is a dumb man." ”

The prince smiled helplessly, and took another sip of wine alone.

"If you don't know how to speak, then listen to me, even if you can't speak, it's good to have a companion to drink and admire the moon, today is August 15th! I, I've always lived in that small place in Miancheng, and this time I came out for a walk and felt that I was really a frog at the bottom of the well......"

The woman was still talking to herself, completely ignoring whether the prince and the civet were listening. And the princely and royal raccoon no longer hated her rudeness as before, listening to her tell the bizarre experiences along the way, as well as the various stories he heard, made him feel more and more interesting, and unconsciously, the wine jars around the two of them were piled up more and more.

"I heard that there are treasures of the Mermaids hidden under the lake in Dongyao, and when I went to Dongyao this time, I spent money on a few people of the Fishmen and asked them to take me to the places where the legendary treasures might exist. You know what? The woman blinked mysteriously, and when she saw that the prince and the raccoon did not react, she continued, "The so-called treasure is the house they built with red coral, as long as you bring some night pearls into the bottom of the lake and shine those houses like this, the original black bottom of the lake is simply beautiful." Brother, you should also go and see if you have a chance! ”

A breeze blew, carrying the fresh breath of the bamboo forest, which also made the already slightly drunk prince and the civet even more drunk, and accidentally opened the conversation box and said: "Interesting and interesting!" Tell me about what else is there to do? ”

"Hey, so you can talk!" The woman looked displeased, glared at him and continued, "Since you can speak, let's introduce yourself first!" ”

"In the lower tree, from the royal city of Yongchuan." After thinking about it, the prince and the royal raccoon still reported a false name.

"My name is Lan Ruoqing." The woman said with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to have such a feminine name."

"I didn't expect you to have such a casual name with such a domineering look."

After teasing each other, the two looked at each other and smiled, and raised the wine jar in their hands to touch it with tacit understanding, and then raised their heads and drank a big sip.

At this time, the owner of the post station came over and asked, "Two guest officers, what else do you need?" The little ones are going to rest, too. ”

"Take out all the wine, is there enough gold? I'm going to have a drink with this brother! Lan Ruoqing took out a large gold ingot from his money bag and said.

"Enough is enough!" The owner of the inn nodded again and again, thinking that the inn that was deserted on weekdays could be regarded as a full pot today.

Who knew that it would only be a few seconds after being happy, when Lan Ruoqing threw the gold ingot to the boss, she was grabbed by the prince and thrown back to her. He took out his money bag and said, "How can a woman invite me to drink?" I'll pay for it! ”

After speaking, he took out a piece of gold ingot, which was much smaller than Lan Ruoqing just now, and handed it to the boss.

The innkeeper immediately complained with a sad face: "This guest officer, the guest just now gave such a big piece of gold, no matter what you say, you should take a similar one!" ”

"The one I gave you is far more than the price of all your wine here, it's always bad to be too greedy!" Although the prince and the raccoon were not angry, his expression was also shocking enough

"Okay, then you go ahead, I'll go and carry the wine for you!" The boss had no choice but to put away the gold ingot and turn away.

"I said, Brother Beaver, you're too stingy, aren't you? It's not easy for people to do business, not to mention that it's relatively remote and there are no customers. What if you give more? Lan Ruoqing said after taking the gold ingot she had just taken out.

"If you give him a taste of the sweetness for a while, he will always have the illusion that the guests will give so much money. Once he found out that there was no such guest at all, the gap in his heart must be much greater than that at this time. Greed is such a thing, that is, after getting it, you always want to get more. The prince couldn't help but say his own reasoning.

"Brother Beaver, you must not be happy in your life, as monsters, we have so much time to waste, why not take it easy and care about these little things."

Lan Ruoqing stood up as she spoke, and changed into women's clothes, the blue gauze skirt took advantage of her thin shoulders and slender waist to be more graceful. She danced in the moonlight, her soft body performing all kinds of difficult movements, which fascinated the prince and the raccoon, and even when the innkeeper took away the empty wine jar and piled it up behind him.

They chatted all night, and they didn't feel a trace of fatigue until the early morning, and the prince and the civet had never met anyone, and they could not only drink together, but also make him open his heart like this, and I wished to stay at the Sizhu Station all the time.

But Lan Ruoqing said, "Brother Beaver, it's really fun to chat with you, but I have to continue my journey." If there is a fate, we will see you on August 15 of the next year, do you say okay? ”

The prince didn't keep it, just nodded and smiled, watching the back of Lan Ruoqing, who had changed back into men's clothes, riding away on horseback, and gradually drifting away. Although there was always some regret in my heart, I also had a corresponding expectation, and the thought that he and she would meet in this place on the same day next year, every day of the year was full of expectations.

He and Lan Ruoqing have always kept their promise to meet on August 15 every year, and they have not changed for a hundred years. For a long time, the prince and the raccoon never revealed his true identity, because only in Lan Ruoqing's was he the most real and natural, and he didn't want to destroy this feeling.

When Lan Ruoqing told him that he had a partner, although he felt a faint pain in his heart, he still gave her blessings, and also promised to give her a big gift in the coming year. Who knew that in the second year, Lan Ruoqing did not appear, and after Xu Dunian, the prince and the raccoon still insisted on arriving at the Sizhu Post Station on August 15, but the boss also told him that he never saw the woman who liked men's clothes again.

The prince sent people everywhere to inquire about Lan Ruoqing's news, but found nothing, I thought that I would never meet Lan Ruoqing again, but I didn't expect to learn that a woman who opened a hotel in the royal city was very similar to Lan Ruoqing. He ran to this hotel called Sparrow to take a look, although Lan Ruoqing was a lot older than before, but sure enough, she was right.

"Why didn't you appear again at the Silk Bamboo Station?" The tone of the prince and the raccoon did not seem to question.

"Something happened......" Lan Ruoqing stopped talking.

"Didn't you find a partner? Why did you come to Wangcheng to open a hotel? The prince and the raccoon had too many questions, but seeing Lan Ruoqing, who was safe and sound, he was even more relieved in his heart.

"Overnight, I was left with nothing and no mood to tell a story anymore, so I hid alone for a few years. But I thought that there was still an old friend of yours in Wangcheng, so I came, but I didn't know your address, so I had to open the hotel. The expression on Lan Ruoqing's face was very lonely, obviously experiencing something extremely painful.

"Since you're here, let's go to my house and have a look!" The prince and the civet finally made up his mind to tell Lan Ruoqing his true identity.
