The east was twilight, and the fox fairy forest was once again shrouded in a morning mist, and the slowly flowing mist covered the surface like a thick blanket, as if he didn't want to reveal what happened last night to others.

Autumn is getting stronger, the weather is getting colder and colder, and even the sun seems weak, until the second hour of the year, the fog that covers the earth begins to slowly dissipate.

At this time, the fox fairy forest is already a busy scene, and there is an endless stream of fox cultivators in the medicine garden, the animal pen, and the square, of course, the noisiest thing is those fox cultivators who are still in the wisdom period, and they will run and frolic on the shallow hills, swaying the excess energy in their bodies.

Today's fox fairy forest is extremely quiet, only one or two secret sentinels, occasionally there is a slight movement coming out, and there is no sound in other places, and even all kinds of demon beasts and beasts living near the shallow hill have fled because of last night's battle, at least for a short time.

Almost all of the people who participated in the war were asleep, and the old and weak women and children who had been hiding in the shelters were also frightened, and it was not until the alarm was lifted in the second half of the night that they were withdrawn from the shelters in various places, and it was almost dawn when they settled down.

Grandpa Yu was seriously injured, and after being sent back to the secret room of the cave, the ancestor immediately blocked Grandpa Yu's cave, and sent Sanni to lead ten bone-quenching fox cultivators to strictly protect inside and outside the cave.

Dani is responsible for counting and returning the valuables that have been packed before to the warehouse and sealing them again, since there is no need to escape, these valuables are still safely placed in the treasury.

Hu Da and Wu Ni were seriously injured, and the ancestor personally took out two four-grade wound pills from the treasury and treated them in time, and finally saved their lives.

Although Hu Er and Hu San's injuries were not light, but it was more because of the loss of strength in the big war, after taking the pill, there was no major problem, and they arranged three shifts of secret sentinels and patrol personnel, and also went back to their cave to heal and recuperate.

Ah Li originally wanted to follow Elder Sanni to protect Grandpa Yu, but he was sent by the ancestor to take stock of the supplies with Dani.

The ancestor said that Ah Li is already in the demon pill period, and he should participate in the management of the fox fairy forest as soon as possible, and after the aftermath of the fox fairy forest is completed, he will specially choose an auspicious day for the zodiac, one is to celebrate the complete victory of the war with the weasel clan, and the other is to celebrate Ah Li's promotion to elder.

The work of boosting morale and treating psychological trauma is an important work that must be done in the future of Fox Immortal Forest, so Ah Li has no reason to refuse this decision, as long as it is beneficial to Fox Immortal Forest, Ah Li will actively cooperate.

The rest of the people have their own duties or arrangements, and the biggest uninvited guest is the tanuki Daxian, because of his full containment and bloody battle, to ensure that the fox fairy forest won the final victory, of course, the biggest enemy was also attracted by him.

For how to arrange the tanuki immortal, the ancestor had a headache, such a senior master, it is not good to urge him to leave, but leaving him is equivalent to leaving a disaster, who knows when the crazy deer ring son will come again.

Since he can't get rid of the tanuki Daxian, he can only arrange for him to stay first, and then "invite" him to leave as soon as he has the opportunity.

The tanuki Daxian took the initiative to ask to live in the cave before the bat wing, and the ancestor thought about it for a while, it was really inappropriate to live in other people's caves, so he agreed.

But seeing the lewd expression of the tanuki Daxian who succeeded in his treacherous scheme, the ancestor regretted it a little, although he didn't know what small actions the tanuki Daxian wanted to do, but he took the initiative to ask to live in the cave of the bat wing, it must have a bad purpose.

Because there were too many things that the ancestor needed to deal with, she only stayed on the issue of the tanuki immortal for a while, and immediately went to deal with other things, and no longer entangled with the tanuki immortal on the issue of accommodation.

Because the person who can be trusted by Grandpa Yu and Ah Li at the same time should not be in any big trouble.

Ah Li followed Elder Dani until almost dawn, turning around the two mansions and three secret rooms, one large and one small, before returning to his cave in the orphanage camp exhausted.

As for the overall aftermath of the Fox Immortal Forest, let's wait until the next day to get up and do it, all the people are already exhausted, and the most important thing now is to rest and recover their physical strength and energy.

Ah Li insisted on not choosing an elder's cave to stay overnight, first, because she felt that she had just been promoted, and this kind of thing was not to be rushed, and second, she was worried about those younger brothers and sisters in the orphanage camp.

Back in the orphanage camp, Ah Li couldn't help but feel sad again, the orphan camp of more than 40 people, now there are only 19 people left, Ah Li hugged and comforted these younger siblings one by one, and secretly felt sad in his heart.

159 suffered a lot of injuries, his shoulder blades and back were bitten by Weasel Xiu, a piece of walnut-sized meat was directly missing from his shoulder blades, and his internal organs were also concussed.

159 concealed his injuries and persisted on the sentry post for two hours, then fainted due to fever and was sent back to the orphanage camp by the other sentries, where he kept tossing and turning on his own hides, unable to sleep peacefully.

Ah Li tried the forehead horn of 159, and it was really a little hot, it seemed that it was difficult for him to recover by himself in this state, Ah Li fed 159 a Peiyuan Dan and fed him some water.

After a while, Pei Yuan Dan's medicinal power began to take effect, and 159 was much quieter and began to fall into a deep sleep.

Ah Li drove the other brothers and sisters to lie down on their respective skins before returning to his cave to lie down.

The hard work of these two days and nights made Ah Li feel a little out of strength, she lay on her animal skin, began to be drowsy, and suddenly remembered that she hadn't been in contact with Tianhuo for a long time.

Ah Li asked softly, "Tianhuo, are you okay?" There are too many things today, and I haven't talked to you all the time. ”

Tianhuo's voice came: "Ah Li, I'm fine." You're tired today, so let's talk about it tomorrow. ”

Ah Li muttered, his eyelids drooped uncontrollably, and he soon fell asleep.

Tianhuo lay on the stone platform, which has changed a lot now, except that the ground has become more flat, and a stone bed has risen on each stone platform.

The stone bed of Tianhuo is yellow, like a whole piece of gold silk chalcedony carving, the texture and feel are excellent, you can feel the spiritual power surrounding your body when you lie down, and there is a trace of warmth coming from under your body.

What's more, there is also a jade pillow on the stone bed, which can be used to clear the mind and eliminate desires, improve understanding, and be more conducive to meditation and enlightenment.

At this moment, it was pitch black on the canopy, and it could only be vaguely identified as being in Ah Li's cave**.

Tianhuo was very awake and didn't feel sleepy at all, starting from discovering the conspiracy of the Bat Wing Elder, to the Weasel Clan's attack on the Fox Immortal Forest, and finally the Yuanying Monk Brawl, he could only watch and listen as a bystander most of the time, but he couldn't participate, speak, or comment.

This is a battle between the two races, it is a war that belongs to Ah Li, he is not qualified to help, he doesn't even dare to make suggestions easily, for fear of affecting Ah Li's judgment.

With the perspective of the canopy, Skyfire is probably the one who sees the whole event most clearly.

Two groups of poorly equipped demon cultivators fought a clan war with clear intentions and tricks around the ownership of the Fox Immortal Forest.

The battle of more than a thousand fox cultivators and weasel cultivators is not magnificent, their fighting methods are relatively simple and primitive, and there is no ornamentation, especially low-level demon cultivators, it is the collision of fangs and claws and flesh and blood, and the killing itself attracts them more than strategic intentions.

Looking back on the whole incident, there are always moments in the simple story that make Tianhuo feel tears and rejuvenation.

Erni's deathbed confession, the ancestor's confession, Hu Da's fearlessness of death, and Grandpa Yu's belief in perseverance all deeply shocked Tianhuo's heart.

These are the biggest gains of Tianhuo's trip down the mountain, and all kinds of emotions filled Tianhuo's chest for a while, making him unable to settle down to sort out and think, and the more this emotion brewed, the more it seemed to explode.

Tianhuo knew that this was an overreaction under heavy pressure, and it could not be suppressed by relying on the Dao heart, in other words, ordinary people could understand that Tianhuo was homesick.

Tianhuo said softly on the stone platform: "Ah Li, congratulations on saving your home. I'm homesick too, and I want to go back sooner. ”

Of course, his voice was very small, maybe Ah Li could hear it when he was awake, but Ah Li, who was asleep, just scratched his ears with his paws, changed to a lying position, and continued to sleep.

After a dreamless night, Ah Li woke up in the noise and crying, and hurried out of his cave, except for 159, the orphans in the orphan camp were still sleeping, and the other orphans were not in the cave.

When Ah Li walked out of the orphanage camp, it was already noon, and the sun had almost reached the middle of the sky, and the sunlight still had no way to tear through the thick clouds in the sky, so it could only scatter some light weakly, illuminating the entire fox fairy forest.

The devastation and corpses are all over the field, and it is the scene in front of them.

All the fox cultivators who could act and the foxes who had not opened their minds in the fox fairy forest took action, and the fox cultivators took the unenlightened foxes to pick out the corpses of Weasel Xiu on the battlefield and threw them next to the corpse pile on the side, and soon Weasel Xiu's corpse was piled up into a small mountain.

Two black cloaks came to the Law Enforcement Hall, bringing a dozen or so strangely dressed fox cultivators.

Their faces were covered in heavy linen cloth, and they wore special claw tools on their claws, one with a knife with an inward blade, and the other with a two-pointed hook, and the group was colloquially known as the "Skinning Squad".

The skinning team is usually responsible for dismantling the remains of the enemy, fangs, claws, fur, demon crystals, demon pills, and other useful things must be dismantled, for demon cultivators who are poor in cultivation resources, all the materials that can be used cannot be wasted.

The Fox Immortal Forest Skinning Team has only two or three permanent formations on weekdays, because there are not so many materials to disassemble, this team of ten people is improvised patchwork, and most of them have worked in the skinning team.

Their main task is to dismantle the corpses of these weasels, and they have no psychological burden at all for the enemies they hate, and they are eager to disassemble every inch of flesh and bone on the weasels, and it is best to squeeze out the oil.

Under the supervision and guidance of the black cloak, they even separated the stinky glands on the weasel and placed them for preservation.

For the warriors who sacrificed their lives to protect the fox fairy forest, the ancestor naturally would not slack off, she personally led Dani, Sanni, Hu Er, Hu San and others to sort out the sacrificed fox cultivators and place them neatly in an open space, so that the surviving relatives could pay their respects.

All the people wept silently, and many women and children spontaneously organized themselves to groom their compatriots who had died, and every time a corpse was sorted out, it always caused a burst of bitter tears.

The remaining skilled and professional fox repairers were sent to Changxi to repair the bamboo bridge, clean up and repair the secret post posts, tidy up and repair the medicine garden and animal pen, and everyone was working hard.

Ah Li also hurriedly ran to help the old ancestor clean up the corpse together.

Yesterday there were many comrades who were killed and wounded, many of whom were acquaintances, Ah Li saw the corpses of the hammer, the ugly girl and the iron girl, the nail lost a hind leg, which was bitten alive by his enemies, and the sunspot and the thin girl survived the battle.

The nail was lame with one leg, crying bitterly beside the hammer, and the broken hind leg of the nail would be equipped with a prosthetic leg by a craftsman from the tribe, and with a little training, it would not affect his movement too much, but the hammer's life could not be renewed.

Ah Li looked at the hammer's body that was almost broken by the waist, and remembered the hammer's care for her, and couldn't help crying bitterly.

Tianhuo looked at the hammer silently on the canopy, this fox Xiu likes Ah Li a little, but with Ah Li's sluggish personality, he definitely didn't see it, so don't mention this matter again in the future, lest Ah Li be even more sad.

After crying for a while, the thin girl stepped forward to pick up the nail, and then pulled Ah Li up and said: "Brother Nail, Ah Li, don't cry, it's their glory that Hammer, Ugly Ya and Tieya can sacrifice their lives for Fox Xianlin."

When we came out of the orphanage camp, didn't we all swear to defend the fox fairy forest to the death?

Now that they have done it, they can rest, but we are still alive, we must protect the Fox Immortal Forest in their place, and we can't let them down, so you two stand up quickly, they definitely don't want to see you so sad and cowardly!"

After a while, the nail struggled to stand up, and Ah Li also suppressed his crying.

At this time, Heizi leaned over with some cringe, and bowed to Ah Li: "Elder Ah Li, don't be sad, take care of your body." The three of them can fight to the death for the race, and I think they were happy before they died. We'll take care of the nails, and you go about your own business first. ”

Hearing what Kuroko said, Nail and Slender suddenly realized that Ah Li was different from them at this time, Ah Li was already an elder in the Demon Pill Period, and when they remembered their words and attitude towards Ah Li just now, they seemed to be a little contemptuous, and they were a little at a loss for a while.

Ah Li glanced at Kuroko with some disgust, Kuroko was arranged by Dani to guard a secret room last night, and did not participate in last night's battle.

With Kuroko's character, maybe he took the initiative to ask to guard the secret room.

Because he did not participate in this big battle, he was able to speak so lightly.

Who will die willingly, who will be happy when they die, no one!

Ah Li knew that the hammers all longed to live, but there was always something in their lives that was extra important, even more than their own lives, so they could move forward for the sake of the clan.

Kuroko's deferential attitude and flattering tone made Ah Li very uncomfortable, and when she saw the embarrassment and obvious sense of alienation of the nail and the thin girl, she wanted to go up and slap Kuroko half to death with one paw, but she couldn't do that.

Ah Li said warmly to the nail and the thin girl: "Brother Nail, sister thin girl, I implore the two of you not to treat me as an elder, I am still the Ah Li in the orphanage camp, no matter how you change in the future, you two are my brothers and sisters, and they will never change!"

The nail and the thin girl were moved by Ah Li's sincere words, but the sunspot on the side heard that Ah Li's words did not include him.

She respected Elder Ah Li so much, but she didn't care! Kuroko felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

But Kuroko is strong inside! Thinking that Ah Li is already an elder, everything she does makes sense, maybe she is telling herself in this way that she and Nail's importance is different.

Kuroko secretly decided that he would not care what others did to Elder Ah Li in the future, he only needed to let Elder Ah Li know that his respect for her was from the heart, after all, with the relationship between him and Elder Ah Li for so many years together, he was always closer to Elder Ah Li than others.

Ah Li would never have thought that there were such people as sunspots in the world, just one sentence and one look were enough for him to guess for a long time.

Ah Li didn't want to look at the people he despised anymore.

At this time, the corpses on the battlefield had been basically sorted, and after the ancestor arranged the burial of the clansmen, he asked all the elders to go back to the cave for a meeting, including Ah Li.

Shallow hill, the cave of the ancestors.

The old ancestor was busy almost all night, without half a quarter of an hour of rest, at this time the gold-lacquered chair had been replaced by an ordinary couch, the old ancestor leaned on the bed, his hands on his head, and waited a little tired to listen to Dani report the battle damage that night.

Because Grandpa Yu, Hu Da and Wu Ni were seriously injured, only Lao Zu, Dani, Sanni, Hu Er, Hu San and A Li attended today's meeting.

In this Xianlin change, although the fox Xianlin won, it was only a miserable victory.

Dani tried to read the battle damage report in a cold, emotionless tone.

“...... Before the war, there were a total of 892 registered monks in the Fox Immortal Forest, including one Elder Taishang and ...... Elders"

"After the war, the number of registered monks in the Fox Immortal Forest was sharply reduced to 401 people, one elder Taishang, and seven elders, of which Elder Ah Li was a new elder, seventy-two monks in the bone quenching period, seventy-nine monks in the forging period, 241 monks in the Tongzhi period who did not participate in the war, and 491 monks died in battle. ”

Dani paused, looked at the Old Ancestor, and continued: "This time, a total of 517 Weasel Clan Monks were killed, including four Weasel Ancestors and Demon Pill Stage Elders, and the Weasel Clan Great Elder, Second Elder, and sixteen Bone Quenching Stage Monks fled. ”

"Because we managed to hold back most of the Weasel Xiu near Changxi, there was no major damage to the shallow hill itself, only four animal pens were destroyed, and the escaped horned rabbits and bamboo rats trampled and gnawed two medicine fields, and the other losses were negligible. ”

"The above is the report of the battle damage, how we will deal with the aftermath and act in the future, please show the ancestors. ”

The old ancestor rubbed the corners of his forehead on both sides, raised his head and said to the elders, "You have worked hard these days. ”

The elders got up and said that it was not hard, and the ancestor asked everyone to continue to sit down and said, "I originally wanted everyone to take a break, but there are a few things that must be done quickly, and I want to discuss it with you." ”

"First, hunt down the remnants of the Weasel Clan. The Great Elder and Second Elder of the Weasel Clan escaped, coupled with the demon cultivation left behind by their own clan, and the possibility of a comeback, so without further ado, they must act quickly. ”

"Second, take over the territory of the Weasel Clan and transport all the Weasel Clan's treasury back to the Fox Immortal Forest. Most of the Weasels will not stick to their station, and will break up their treasury and scatter and escape.

And their treasury should be used as a reparation for this war, and they can't be allowed to take it away at will, the fox fairy forest is seriously damaged this time, and it is in urgent need of this batch of materials to replenish. ”

"Third, the Fox Immortal Forest Revitalization Plan. This time the Fox Immortal Forest suffered such a big loss, although almost all the elders were preserved and retained their vitality, but the death of the fox cultivators in the bone quenching period and the forging stage below was eighty percent, which had seriously affected the survival and development of the race.

I decided to take out all the storehouses of the Weasel Clan and half of the storehouses of the Fox Immortal Forest, and quickly spawned a batch of fox cultivation in the quenching and forging periods, I don't know what you think?"

The three suggestions of the ancestors were analyzed thoroughly and clearly, and naturally no one had any objections, and the key was to see who was sent to carry out these tasks.

After a simple discussion, the ancestor assigned the task.

Because the two elders of the Weasel Clan who escaped were both high-level cultivators of the Demon Pill, in order to ensure that they could kill these two elders, the old ancestor would personally hunt them down.

And Hu Er and Hu San will lead forty demon cultivators in the bone quenching period and forty demon cultivators in the body forging stage to capture the Weasel Clan station and rush to transport the Weasel Clan's treasury.

Dani is responsible for the aftermath of the battlefield and the deployment of materials, Sanni is responsible for the selection of personnel for the revitalization plan, and Ah Li is responsible for protecting the safety of Grandpa Yu, Hu Da, Sanni and Hu Xianlin.

Of course, Ah Li's guardian task, mainly with the help of the power of the tanuki immortal, has a master of the Yuan infant stage, the ancestor can leave the fox fairy forest with confidence, to chase and kill the two elders of the weasel clan, fortunately, the weasel clan station and the fox fairy forest are not far away, come and go smoothly, and you can go back and forth within two days.

After everyone received the order, they quickly took action.

After a quarter of an hour, the old ancestor drove a flying sword out of the Fox Immortal Forest, although it was still a little jerky when flying, but with her Jindan cultivation, flying to the Weasel Clan's station, she must have mastered the trick of flying.

Hu Er and Hu San led the eighty fox cultivators who were temporarily organized to go to Elder Dani to receive wartime supplies.

Dani solemnly handed over a storage bag to Hu Er, and after teaching him how to use it, he told him hundreds of times that this heavy treasure was given by Grandpa Yu himself, and it must not be lost, and the most precious treasures of the Weasel Clan must be brought back with this storage bag.

As for the other eighty fox cultivators, in addition to the normal wartime supplies, each of them also gave a huge pocket, listening to Elder Dani's meaning, whoever is not satisfied with the pocket, don't go back to the fox fairy forest.

Hu Erhu San led his subordinates noisily and set off an hour later.

They don't have flying magic weapons, and they don't have the ability to control magic weapons, so they can only walk to the Weasel Clan station on their own, and by then the old ancestor should have swept away the Weasel Clan station and successfully killed the two elders of the Weasel Clan, they just need to go and move everything back.

In fact, Dani also wanted to follow, she was worried that there would be some demon cultivators in the middle to fill her pockets, and in the end, she had to stuff five black cloaks into the eighty people, so that Dani could put her mind at ease.

Sanni received the roster of all registered fox cultivators from Dani, and the Fox Immortal Forest Revitalization Plan needs to classify all fox cultivators in detail, and comprehensively consider the age, qualifications, personality and other factors of all registered fox cultivators in order to formulate a targeted material investment plan.

The ancestor proposed a national promotion plan, which will train all the monks of the Fox Immortal Forest in batches, in order to achieve the best promotion effect, Sanni needs to rank and group everyone with the most just heart.

So Sanni quickly took people away several stacks of personnel information from Dani's cave mansion and prepared to go back to subdivide them.

Ah Li suddenly became the most idle person, saying that he was protecting Grandpa Yu, Hu Da and Wuni, but these people were either in retreat or unconscious, and the nursing staff had arranged it, and she couldn't intervene.

So Ah Li decided to visit the tanuki Daxian.

Since the noisy start early in the morning, with the character of the tanuki fairy who loves to join in the fun, he has not appeared, which makes Ah Li very strange, I don't know what he is doing hiding in the original cave of the bat wing?

When Ah Li had just approached the vicinity of the cave mansion of the bat wing, before he entered the door, he heard the laughter of the tanuki fairy from the cave:

"Wowha, finally let Ben Daxian figure out the trick, and from now on I will no longer be afraid of being poor and starving!"
