The village has been abandoned for an unknown number of years, and before the ruins, an unkempt old woman is desperately kowtowing, and in front of her is a handsome young man. He held a small mermaid like a porcelain doll in his arms.

On his left stood a rugged boy and an old soul, and on his right was a girl with a peerless countenance.

But anyone who sees this scene will feel strange and sad.

At this time, Shui Hao and the others looked at each other speechlessly, all of them looking shocked.

This fox has always been cautious in front of Shui Hao, but he became so excited when Hu Youer asked why he devoured the souls of living people.

It clattered its head and repeated the same words over and over again.

"Ask for the adult, fulfill the little maid......!"

"Can you get up and speak first? Shui Hao was the first to recover from the shock, he frowned tightly and said in a loud voice.

The fox didn't know if he didn't hear it, or if he didn't get Shui Hao's promise and was unwilling, but he still kept kowtowing.

Until that disgruntled whisper sounded.

"Woo Woo ......"

The creek's soft roar was not very loud, and it was not even as loud as the kowtow of the fox.

But the moment the light whistle sounded, the fox's body suddenly froze, as if it was once again bound by the 'arrows of the four directions' and the 'two vertical abuses'.

"Huping, you get up first! What do you have to let us know the ins and outs of first? As for whether or not I can promise you, it depends on the specific situation. We also have our own things to do when we come to Mt. Keo. Shui Hao shook his head, helplessness in his voice.

"Little, the little maid is rude. Hu Ping hurriedly got up from the ground, quietly looked at Shui Hao's face in Zhongxi's arms, and was extremely worried in his heart.

Seeing that Xi was nesting in Shui Hao's arms, his eyes slightly closed, as if he had fallen asleep, as if the soft sound did not come from his mouth. The fox took a bite lightly, and his face was relieved.

"Fox, you said that devouring the souls of the living is to become stronger, what are you going to the other side of Mt. Keo for?"

Shui Hao's brows stretched slightly, and he asked the doubts in everyone's hearts, and everyone looked sideways, and even Xi quietly pricked up his little ears.

"My lord, devouring the remnant soul can keep me alive, but it only lasts. The fox sighed lightly, and his voice became dry and hoarse.

"We foxes are spirits born from the combination of fox fire and dying people. ”

"Dying?" Hu Youyou's voice was shocked, this was not the same as what her mother Jiang Jiu had said at the beginning. She didn't think her mother would cheat on her.

Does this fox have any other purpose? Hu Youyou's long, thin eyes narrowed.

The fox seemed to feel something, and looked up at Hu You'er, but there was no change on his face. It has long understood that among the group, the young man in front of him is respected. Even the magical little Tibetan spirit listened to this young man.

So, what about the others, Fox doesn't care.

It took a deep breath and continued, "This secret is only known to the spirit that has become a fox.

It is said in the world that the fox fire is attached to the woman who has just died, and the three souls and seven spirits have not had time to dissipate in the body, the fox will be formed. ”

Seeing Hu You'er nodding, the corners of his mouth showed a hint of sarcasm, and he changed his words and said: "But they don't know that even if the three souls are still there at the moment of death, the seven spirits have already dissipated. And the fox fire must be fused with three souls and seven spirits at the same time to give birth to the fox.

Therefore, we must find the dying women and sign a spiritual pact with them. ”

"Sign the spirit contract?" Hu You'er couldn't help but exclaim, and Shui Hao's faces also showed surprise.

The spirit contract generally appears between the instrument and the spirit and the master, just like the sealing stone and the master-servant contract between Mo Chou and Shui Hao.

But he never thought that the formation of the fox would also use the spirit contract.

"People are about to die, and there are many unwillingness. When a man is about to die, his heart mourns. And the condition of the spiritual contract is to help them fulfill their wishes, and it is precisely because of this that they will willingly merge with us.

Their memories are the guide for us to fulfill their wishes, and the consciousness they leave behind is where we are bound, and once we break our promises, our souls will be scattered. ”

Shui Hao and the others looked at the fox in disbelief, thinking about all the things they had encountered it, in addition to its appearance, where did it have a trace of human characteristics.

The fox seemed to know what everyone was thinking, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and there was a hint of arrogance in his voice.

"They are just mortals, how can they withstand the obsession of the demon fox after merging with us. After becoming a fox, every word and deed will change according to the obsession in the fox fire. ”

Fox Ping's voice suddenly took on a hint of desolation.

"Fox fire is all out of joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, affection, desire, anger, delusion, in these fate, although we will unconsciously act according to the obsession of the body, but each fox also has its own obsession, that is, to meet with the self.

We make spiritual contracts with mortals just to be alive, and the purpose of our life is to see the essence again. ”

The fox said with sadness, and everyone was moved, and their faces were inexplicably complicated. Among them, Hu Youer's eyes were covered with a layer of mist. She thought of Jiang Jiu and Yan again, and they were not her own obsession before.

Tired birds return to the forest, fish fly to the shallow bottom, and fallen leaves return to the roots, these are all deep-rooted desires in the soul, and they are also life in pursuit of a home.

"Is your body on the other side of Mt. Keo?" Shui Hao asked with a slight groan.

Fox Ping said that the purpose of becoming stronger is to climb over the Giant Peak, and everything it does is to return to the main body.

"My lord!" the fox bowed to Shui Hao, "We are originally part of the body, and we have a natural sense of the body. I could sense that my body was on the other side of Mt. Keo. This induction has not changed for thousands of years. ”

"Millennium, since she is also in Mt. Keo, why didn't she come to you?"

Hu Youer's gaze fell on Hu Ping's body, thoughtful, puzzled, and more of a strange concern.

Hu Ping turned his head to look at Hu You'er, perhaps feeling the emotion in her voice, and Hu Ping's voice also softened.

"This little maid doesn't know. But I can sense the being, and she must be able to feel my presence. Maybe the main body can't climb over that giant peak. ”

"No, the formed fox can suck the soul of a living person, and your body must not be an ordinary fox, they should be able to climb over the Giant Peak. Mo Chou suddenly spoke, his eyes flashing with essence.

Shui Hao and the others were only slightly stunned, and they already understood the meaning of Mo Chou's words.

At first, they speculated that the body of the fox in front of them was very likely to be Xiaobai. With Xiaobai's strength, how could he not be able to overturn that giant peak.

"How could it be. Could it be that the body has abandoned me? How can it be ......" Fox Ping's face changed drastically, and his voice trembled.

It turned its head, facing in the direction of Mt. Keo, and muttered, "Do you really want me......?"

The fox pauses suddenly, as if even something sour and hard is choked in his throat.

"Your body shouldn't want you!" Mo Chou spoke again, with a convincing power in his voice.

Everyone's eyes fell on him. The fox stretched out a pair of dark and dry hands and grabbed Mo Chou's arm, his eyes full of expectation.

Mo Chou frowned deeply, subconsciously took a step back, and the arm that was grabbed by the fox slowly dissipated. When it reappeared, it was already out of the fox's palm.

The fox was unconscious, his eyes still fell on Mo Chou, and the expectation in his eyes was even greater.

"Don't worry, when is it, do you still care about that. You know what, just say it. Hu Youer's powder condensed slightly, and she shouted.

Mo Chou's face froze, and his heart was strange. Just now, Hu Youer shouted and killed the fox, looking bitter and hateful. Now I'm anxious about it again.

"Mo Chou, you know that I don't care to do those things that threaten others. What you know, just say it to your face. On the side, Shui Hao also said aloud.

There is a spiritual connection between him and Mo Chou, although he doesn't know what he thinks in his heart, but he can feel his emotions.

Mo Chou nodded hurriedly, he originally planned to use this to control the fox, but Shui Hao had already spoken, so he couldn't help but say it.

"As far as the old slave knows, after the fox clan has its tail cut off, only when the life consciousness carried by the fox fire disappears, they can regrow the fox tail. ”

When everyone heard this, they thought a little in their hearts, and the fox's eyes shook violently.

"When the fox fire gives birth to the fox, the body is sensitive. Under normal circumstances, the ontology will find the fox and help them but be obsessed.

Since the fox fire and the human form of the spiritual contract, then if you want to dissipate, not only is the obsession of the fox necessary, but also the wish of the human must be fulfilled. Only when they reach perfection at the same time will they dissipate. ”

"Whew!"

Everyone didn't know why, but they breathed a long sigh of relief at the same time, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

This fox that only exists in legends, and even Jiang Jiu can't tell the fox is finally restored through Mo Chou's mouth.

At this time, everyone actually felt the breath of life from the fox's body, which had never been vigorous.

"But why is its body ......" Hu You'er suddenly spoke, but she paused violently in the middle of her words, as if she thought of something, and said in an exclamation: "Its body must have encountered some danger from time to time, otherwise it would not have been possible not to come to look for it for a thousand years." ”

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned, and their expressions became extremely solemn, obviously thinking so in their hearts.

Whether the ontology of the fox is Xiaobai or not, it is already certain that it is not a fox. With its own strength, there is no problem in climbing over the Giant Peak. But she has been wandering in the Keio Mountains for thousands of years, and she has not come, obviously as a last resort.

Everyone is even more worried about whether the ontology of the fox and what she encountered will hinder the road to banning.

"She ...... the body" The fox shook with its body, and the next moment it knelt heavily in front of Shui Hao, "My lord, please save my body, if you have any requirements, the little maid will not be allowed." ”
