Qingqiu.

The night of the full moon.

The eldest son of the patriarch of the fox clan, a fluffy white nine-tailed fox was born.

According to the rules of Qingqiu, this newly born nine-tailed sky fox will be the future lord of Qingqiu and the heir of the fox clan patriarch.

Before the little nine-tailed fox was born, his father, the current patriarch of the fox clan, gave him a good name.

Tu Shanyue.

The compound surname Tu Shan is the most noble surname in the Qingqiu fox clan, and it is also the surname that only the nine-tailed sky fox can use.

The surname Tu Shan not only symbolizes the noble status, but also represents the responsibility of the nine-tailed fox clan to Qingqiu.

Moon, compared to the sun during the day, the Qingqiu nine-tailed fox clan prefers the moon at night.

Flowers and trees absorb sunlight and thrive, while the nine-tailed sky fox bathes in the moonlight and transforms into an adult.

The eldest son was named "Yue", which means healthy growth and unlimited mana.

The birth of Tu Shanyue brought a piece of joy to Qingqiu.

The creatures of the entire Qingqiu are singing and dancing for the birth of the future lord of Qingqiu.

The patriarch father held the newly-born little nine-tailed fox and came to the fox altar located on the highest top of Qingqiu Mountain.

The rules of the fox clan, ordinary fox clan, must accept the gift of moonlight one year after birth.

Only after completing the Moonlight Gift can you become an adult, and then you can start cultivating.

The difficulty of cultivation is related to one's own qualifications.

The ordinary fox clan in Qingqiu, through cultivation, can have a lifespan of 1,000 years, while the most noble nine-tailed fox clan has a lifespan of 10,000 years.

The future patriarch of the fox clan, when he was born, would accept the gift of moonlight, incarnate as an adult, and accept the kneeling of the five elders of the fox clan.

The top of Qingqiu Mountain.

All the creatures of Qingqiu gather here.

The Fox Shrine opens.

The moonlight on a full moon night is as gentle as a veil and as clear as water.

The newborn little nine-tailed fox, whose eyes have not yet opened, is curled up on all fours, and its body is covered with silver-white hair, a ball of edelweiss, and nine white tails are wagging at will, which is very cute.

The patriarch father put the little nine-tailed fox on the cyan jade platform in the center of the altar.

Five white-bearded fox clan elders stood around the altar jade platform, each holding a staff of a different color in their hands.

"Moonlight Gift, Kai!"

With the soft chanting of the five elders, the five staffs were raised towards the night sky at the same time.

The moonlight seemed to be pulled, forming a bright light in the center of the five staffs.

The staff flicked, and the gathered moonlight slowly descended from the sky.

The moonlight surrounded the little nine-tailed fox on the green jade platform.

Miraculous sights happen.

The little nine-tailed fox with a clump of edelweiss turned into a pink little baby boy.

The baby boy opened his eyes, his dark eyes looking around, dancing his little hands and feet, and giggling.

The patriarch's father picked up the little baby boy in human form and held it high above his head, and the moonlight shrouded the little baby around, gentle and clear.

The majestic patriarch Daddy announced loudly: "My son, Tu Shanyue, the future Lord of Qingqiu!"

The creatures of Qingqiu Mountain cheered.

——

The Moonlight Gift is complete.

Look at the lively birds and beasts, elven water monsters, flower spirit tree demons, one after another.

In the end, the fox clan who participated in the ritual also left the fox altar with their blessings for the little boy.

The father of the fox clan and the five elders of the fox clan took Xiao Tu Shanyue and returned to the fox cave under Qingqiu Mountain.

The fox cave is a natural cave.

Inside the cave is a large hole set of small holes, the holes are connected, and the maze is general.

From time to time, there are dark rivers in the holes, sometimes gentle, sometimes turbulent.

There are small fish that shimmer with phosphorescence in the water, and there is a crystal illumination on the walls.

Patriarch Daddy walked at the front, walked over an arched bridge over the dark river, and entered a very wide cave.

This cave is the meeting hall of the fox clan, and there is a small waterfall formed by the dark river on one side, and the water hits the rocks, tinkling like fairy music.

Moonlight leaked from the roof of the cave, shining in a half-moon-shaped pool in the center of the cave hall.

The water in the pool comes from the waterfall, and there are several white lotus flowers emerging from the shallow layer.

The water in the moonlight is crystal clear, and you can see the lotus root in the sand at the bottom of the pool.

The handsome patriarch Daddy held Xiao Tu Shanyue and sat down on the jade throne in the council chamber.

The crystals around the throne seemed to sense the aura of the fox patriarch, and the originally soft light became brighter.

The patriarch's father looked at the son in his arms, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Yue'er's abnormality, you have all noticed it. ”

Although the patriarch's father was looking at the son in his arms, what he said just now was to the five fox clan elders standing below.

The eldest elder of the fox clan stepped forward and saluted the patriarch of the fox clan before he began to speak, "Patriarch, the moon prince is born without a heart, if you don't use the fox clan's treasure, the Yuehua Stone, to renew the life of the son, he will die as soon as he is born." ”

The patriarch's father's hand was placed on the chest of his son Xiao Tu Shanyue.

Not a single heartbeat.

The Yuehua Stone that was sealed in Xiao Tu Shanyue's body emitted a faint light.

Another fox clan elder stepped forward, still saluting first, and then speaking, "Even if the patriarch you forcibly use the Yuehua Stone to renew Childe's life, if Childe still doesn't find a truly suitable heart before Childe is twenty years old, Childe will still die." ”

Patriarch's brow furrowed even tighter.

Another fox clan elder, "Moon Gongzi was born in the lunar year and the lunar month, if you want to find a heart that matches perfectly, you must find someone who was also born in the lunar year and the lunar month, and that person will willingly exchange his heart for the childe, so that the heart can be compatible with the child's body." ”

The remaining two fox clan elders also echoed and reminded, "Those who change hearts must not only be voluntary, but also have pure blood. ”

"The one who can change his heart to his son is best to be a fox clan with pure blood, if you can't find such a fox clan, humans can too. ”

"Among our existing fox population, only one of them, Yue Gongzi, was born in a lunar year, and it will take at least sixty years for a fox to be born at the next such hour. ”

"Moon Gongzi only has twenty years, and the sooner he changes his mind, the better. ”

In this way, we can only go to the world to find it. ”

"Most human beings are cunning and treacherous, even if they find someone born in the lunar year, how can he be willing to take out his heart? ”

"Human beings are also greedy, and as long as we offer attractive terms, there will always be people who say yes. ”

"With such a utilitarian purpose, he is not worthy of the moon boy. ”

The five elders of the fox clan argued.

They are all worried about the newborn Moon Child.

The fox father looked up and looked away from the little baby in his arms.

The five elders immediately stopped, waiting for the patriarch's orders.

The patriarch looked up at the moon.

The moon in the night sky was obscured by the mountain wall at the top of the cave in the hall, and only a crooked corner could be seen, as well as a faint moon halo around it.

The patriarch looked at Xiao Tu Shanyue in his arms again and made a decision.

"As for the matter of Yue Gongzi's unintentionality, only my husband and wife and your five elders know about it, and it must be kept secret from others, especially Yue'er. ”

"Yes!"

"Also, the search for human beings born in the lunar year should be carried out quietly, and as soon as there is news, report it immediately. ”

"Yes, follow the patriarch's orders!"
