Wu Ming returned to his old mansion from Southwest Associated University, and when he opened the door, he found smoke billowing from the living room.

"There's a fire!"

Wu Ming was shocked, picked up half a bucket of water in the courtyard and rushed into the living room, rushed to the kitchen door, and collided with Xiaoqian head-on before the water could be splashed out.

With a bang, the water spilled all over the ground, and Wu Ming stretched out his hand to cover his nose: "Xiaoqian, what are you doing?"

"Cooking!" Xiao Qian's face was smeared black and white by herself, and she couldn't help coughing: "It seems that the smoke is a little big." ”

It's still a bit big, it's already smoke!

Wu Ming rushed into the kitchen to turn off the gas, looking at the large black coke in the pot, he couldn't tell what it was.

"Don't use gas when you're home alone, and eat instant noodles when you're hungry. Wu Ming picked up a spatula and shoveled a pile of coke from the pot into the trash, then opened the window to disperse the black smoke from the kitchen.

Xiao Qian looked depressed: "Sister Duyu is not at home, and you have not come back." Do I want to do more. ”

Wu Ming glanced at Xiao Qian, a little helpless: "Clean up the kitchen first, and I'll teach you how to cook." ”

"Okay!" Xiao Qian suddenly regained her spirits.

Xiao Qian quickly cleaned the kitchen inside and out, and brought a big bag to Wu Ming: "This is the food I bought in the supermarket, and there are many more!"

Wu Ming nodded, Xiao Qian's hands are a little stupid, but she is really a good girl at home. "There are a lot of ingredients, I will teach you to make shredded ginger pork, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and home-cooked tofu, and I will direct you by doing. ”

Ten minutes later, Wu Ming began to have a headache.

"Ginger can't be cut into pieces, it has to be shredded. Your meat is cut into big and small pieces, and it's like a broken corpse......"

"You can't knock the eggs like that, the shells have fallen into the bowl. ”

"The ginger was chopped into minced ginger by you, forget it, I'll come, you go boil the water......"

Wu Ming's command voice mixed with Xiao Qian's constant apology sounded in the kitchen, accompanied by the sound of pots and pans, which was particularly lively.

The red-haired Ying Ning lay on the sofa, opened her mouth and yawned loudly, and then closed her eyes again.

On the big tree in the yard, from time to time there was the chirping of Ying Long and the squeak of the flower fox mink, although these two guys were neighbors, they still didn't seem to deal with each other, and there was some friction every day.

In the end, Xiao Qian completed this arduous dinner under the guidance of Wu Ming.

"Xiaoqian, you should eat instant noodles in the future. Wu Ming looked at a few strange-looking dishes on the table, and then looked at Xiao Qian, feeling exhausted.

Xiao Qian's mouth was pouted and she didn't speak.

Wu Ming suddenly felt something rubbing his legs, and when he looked down, he saw that it was Ying Ning running to his feet.

"Wu Ming, do you have time tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?" Wu Ming thought for a while: "I'm on vacation tomorrow, what's the matter?"

Ying Ning stuck out her tongue and gasped: "It's about to be the Double Ninth Festival, and the foxes of all the tribes in Tushan will return to the clan to participate in the banquet, so you can accompany me back." ”

Wu Ming was a little stunned: "Your family fox gathering, what am I going to do?"

Ying Ning screamed twice, stuck out her tongue and licked her front paws.

"Grandma Tai said that there is a way to help me recover my original form on the eve of the Double Ninth Festival, but I need a human to help, Wang!"

Wu Ming chewed the food in his mouth and thought carefully: "How to help, is there any danger, I don't want to go if it's too troublesome." ”

Click!

Ying Ning opened his mouth and bit Wu Ming's calf, and Wu Ming suddenly sighed in pain.

"It's not your reason why I'm like this, you have to come with me, Wang!"

Xiao Qian on the side spoke: "Brother Wu Ming, Xiao Ningning has said so, you can accompany it back." ”

Wu Ming stretched out his hand and rubbed his legs, he was not very happy, and he wanted to accompany Ying Ning to the fox's nest, and I had to hurry up and cultivate immortals!

"Okay, I'll accompany you to Tushan, and I'll come back early, I have a lot of things to do. ”

Ying Ning screamed twice in satisfaction, wagged his tail and stopped talking.

Xiao Qian giggled twice and said, "Brother Wu Ming, I also have something to look for you, our crew is going to eat on a cruise ship during the Double Ninth Festival the day after tomorrow, do you want to go with us?"

"When your crew eats, I won't go as an outsider, and I really have a lot of things. Wu Ming shook his head and rejected Xiao Qian.

Xiao Qian's face suddenly became bitter, and her mouth pursed even higher.

"I'm done. Wu Ming put down the bowl: "Xiaoqian, you can help wash the dishes, it's not early, I want to hurry up and practice." ”

......

Early the next morning, Wu Ming and Ying Ning, who was dressed in fiery red fur, entered the world of Liaozhai early.

"The fox demons of our clan have lived in Tushan for generations, and many people choose to leave Tushan and live in other places after their transformation. ”

Walking on the road, Ying Ning explained some common sense of the demon fox to Wu Ming: "Chongyang is a very important festival of the demon fox clan, no matter how far away, all the clansmen will return to Tushan, everyone will visit each other, climb high and look far." ”

Wu Ming nodded: "It sounds similar to human customs, is there a temple fair or something." ”

Ying Ning stopped and turned her head to look at Wu Ming: "Don't buy anything that the fox fairy sells, Wang." ”

Wu Ming snorted, although he didn't understand why, but he thought that Ying Ning would not harm himself.

A man and a dog walked forward on the road for a while, and Ying Ning spoke again: "The Tushan Demon Fox has existed since ancient times, have you heard the name Tushan." ”

"I seem to have seen ...... in which book" Wu Ming scratched his head and tried his best to recall: "Is it Dayu's wife?" I read in the book that Dayu's wife is a nine-tailed fox named Tu Shan. ”

"It's all a lie. Ying Ning snorted very disdainfully.

"Dayu is busy controlling the water, so he has not been married. Once he passed by Tushan and saw a nine-fox demon, Dayu regarded this as a sign of heaven, and after returning home, he married his wife and renamed his wife 'Tu Shan'. ”

"So the demon fox on our ancestors is not Dayu's wife, but his matchmaker, Wang!" Ying Ning concluded.

Wu Ming sighed, glanced sideways at the red-haired husky who was following beside him, and a trace of curiosity rose in his heart.

The fox demon should be able to change into a human form, but Ying Ning has always been an Erha appearance, whether in the Liaozhai world or in the real world, and she has never seen her change into a human form.

Wu Ming couldn't help but ask, "Are you cultivating too low to transform into a human form?"

Ying Ning Wang screamed twice: "Of course I can transform into shape, but it's too tiring to stand on two legs, I still like the way I look now, Wang!"

Wu Ming nodded, for Ying Ning, who was lazy all day long, this reason was very sufficient.

"When I arrived, there was Tu Mountain in front of me. ”

Ying Ning suddenly stopped his pace while running.

Wu Ming looked up and looked forward, and in front of him was a mountain range that stretched for several miles, not particularly tall, but densely wooded and lush with vegetation.

"This is Tu Shan?" Wu Ming asked, and suddenly found that there was nothing around him, and Ying Ning had disappeared.

"What about people?" Wu Ming turned his head to look around, and all around him was an endless wilderness, and he couldn't see the red-haired Erha figure at all.

After turning around a few times, but there was no trace of Ying Ning, Wu Ming was at a loss, and a voice full of temptation sounded from behind.

"Don't worry, the concubine is here~"

"Chun Tao!" Wu Ming suddenly turned around in shock, but his eyes were still desolate and empty.

Immediately, a deep voice sounded behind him again: "Where is that monster in Chun Tao?"

"Brother Yan!" Wu Ming turned around in amazement, and the back was still empty.

"Brother Wu Ming, what are you looking for when you're going around?"

"Don't turn around, I'm dizzy to see. ”

Two voices sounded from behind him in a row, the tones of Xiao Qian and Du Yu, Wu Ming stopped, stood in place and frowned.

"Ying Ning, if you make trouble again, I'll go back!"

"Cut, I guessed so quickly, I should be pretending to be very similar. Ying Ning's crisp voice sounded from behind, but the familiar Erha tail was missing, Wu Ming turned around, and the whole person was stunned.

In front of him stood a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, wearing a Taoist robe, dressed as a Taoist child. The eyebrows are clear, the lips are red and the teeth are white, the eyes are clear, the hands are crossed in front of him, and there is a faint arrogance on his face.

What a handsome young man.

Wu Ming was stunned for a moment before he spoke: "Are you ...... Male?"

Ying Ning kicked Wu Ming with a cold face: "You care about me! You can wear women's clothes, can't I wear men's clothes!"
