Mysterious Tang Dynasty

Chapter 179
Li Shen knew nothing about the existence of Fenyou.After he parted with Li Lijun, he left Liujiazhuang directly, and led people back to Chang'an City on fast horses.

If there is no accident, he will be able to return to Chang'an before dark today, and at worst, he will be able to catch up with the team transporting the demon snake outside Chang'an city, just in time for the excitement he wants to watch.

After seeing off Li Shen, Li Lijun began to pack his luggage, preparing to return to Mount Saga tomorrow.

I don't know if the gopher heard the news from Shi Qing, who is in the same room, and ran to Li Lijun to beg her: "Little fairy, are you leaving tomorrow? Will you take me with you? Take me with you!" Well, I can do anything!"

Li Lijun sighed and put down the study room in his hand: "Why do you insist on following me? Now that your injuries are almost healed, you can practice on your own. If you don't want to stay here, you can return to Taibai Mountain at any time In my hometown, I live a stable life like before. If you think this place is good and want to stay, the local villagers will also remember your past achievements and send you some food from time to time, so you won’t be hungry. Liujiazhuang The location of the Earth Temple has been decided with Liu Erzhuang, and construction will start next spring. I heard that they discussed to reserve a place for you in the temple. If you want to move there, you can stay in this house. You can live here too. If you like incense, you can eat incense, if you like livestock, you can eat livestock, life will not be much worse than in Taibai Mountain. Isn’t that good?”

If he followed her back to Saga Mountain, the gophers would definitely not be as free as they were in the Liujiazhuang area, where they could come and go in front of people at any time without any worries.Only a few people around her know of its existence in the family.Not only does it have to hide from people, but it doesn't even have that much food. If it wants to practice under the moon, it has to beware of the powerful toad on Saga Mountain that will attack it or snatch the golden essence in its hand.

What's the trouble with this?

Li Lijun carefully analyzed the situation for it, and at the same time frightened it: "You also saw the tragic situation of that demon snake when it died. Don't think that it will die, it is entirely due to me. I just took advantage of it That's all. At that time, the demon snake had just fought a battle with the toad, and it suffered many injuries and was poisoned. I exhausted its strength with the tricks, and then I gave it a fatal sword. If the toad did not hurt it first, It is impossible for me to kill the monster snake so easily. You have fought against the monster snake, think carefully about how powerful it is, and think about how powerful the toad is? You will not be its opponent."

The gopher lay down on the ground and began to meditate. After a while, he said: "I really can't beat that snake. That snake is not a match for Toad, and I can't be a match for Toad. If Toad takes a fancy to my Jin Jing, if you insist on snatching it, I'm afraid I won't be able to snatch it back unless the little fairy kills the toad!"

Li Lijun kept nodding while listening to the previous words, but stopped immediately when he heard the last sentence, and glanced at the gopher silently.

The small eyeballs of the gopher spun around twice, and said with a grin: "Little fairy Bodhisattva has a heart, and I can't see monsters eating people. That snake eats people, so you kill it. This toad must be the I ate that official's passer-by monster. How could you tolerate it? You must be thinking of killing it! In this way, I have nothing to be afraid of."

Li Lijun curled her lips: "Usually stupid, but now you're smart?"

The gopher embarrassedly covered its cheeks with its two little paws: "I'm not stupid at all, but I've lived in the country for a long time, and I don't know much. Sister Shi Qing likes me like this. Cute, if I pretend to be stupid, she will bring me more delicious food. But the little fairy doesn't like idiots, so I don't dare to pretend in front of you."

Li Lijun thought of Shi Qing's way of always being around gophers recently, and couldn't help but sigh: "Shi Qing likes you very much, and takes good care of you. You should treat her better, don't lie to her, let alone use her Do something shady! Especially the kind you do without telling me."

"I'm not that kind of mouse!" The Gopher said seriously, "Sister Shi Qing treats me well, so of course I want to repay her. But if she wants to follow the little fairy, if I want to repay, I must also follow her. I know that the little fairy is kind enough to place me in Liujiazhuang, and she has made a great contribution to me, making my fathers and villagers willing to support me. But I have lived for 50 years and practiced seriously, not just to have meat to eat every day. I also want to cultivate to become a fairy!"

Li Lijun knew that this gopher mouse was an ambitious monster, so he was not surprised to hear it say: "Cultivation is a good thing. The skills passed down by your clan's ancestors are decent skills. You just need to continue to practice hard. Don’t break the precepts lightly, sooner or later you will achieve something.”

"But..." the gopher shrank its head in embarrassment, "I don't understand anything... I don't even know that gold essence is a metallic spiritual thing. Obviously the treasure is in the hole where I sleep every day. But I didn't find the right place... If I knew the formation and the principles of the five elements, I would have gone back to Taibai Mountain with Jin Jing! Since then, I feel that I need to learn more. Otherwise, I will not be able to become a fairy even if I practice for 100 years!"

No no no, you think too much.Even if one is knowledgeable, 100 years is not enough for monsters to become immortals.

Li Lijun looked at this gopher squirrel without common sense, and understood why it wanted to follow her: "You want me to teach you the common sense of practice, and I'd better give you some pointers on your practice?"

The gopher looked at her eagerly: "Can you do it, little fairy? I will listen to you. If you tell me to dig a hole, I will dig a hole; if you tell me to hunt for treasure, I will go for treasure; if you tell me to go Hitting Toad, I... I can also do it!"

Li Lijun rolled his eyes at it, and began to think carefully whether it was necessary to bring this mouse with him.

After thinking about it for a while, she said: "There is no place to take you in my place now. You should rest in Liujiazhuang for a while and help the local villagers solve some small difficulties within their capabilities. The villagers are grateful to you because you saved people. They I thought it was you who killed the demon snake. You have received their hospitality, so you should do more practical things for them in order to repay their kindness. After you finish paying off this debt of favor, you can also go back to your hometown to have a look. Do you have any luggage? Do you want to clean up? Do you have any relatives or friends who want to say goodbye? If you still want to come to me after all this is done, and you are willing to endure all kinds of inconvenience, then come here.”

The gopher immediately stood up straight: "Is what the little fairy said true? You promised to accept me?!"

"You have to do what I said before." Li Lijun said, "I still won't accept you as a spiritual pet, but if you really stay by my side obediently, abide by my rules, and help me do things, then I will I will also reciprocate, teach you some cultivation knowledge, so that you can practice more smoothly. But I have something to say first, cultivation is mainly up to you. Whether you can cultivate into a fairy is not up to me. If you If you can’t do it, you should reflect on yourself, and you can’t blame me.”

"Of course!" the gopher jumped up happily, "I practice the method handed down from my ancestors, and others don't know it. Whether I practice it well or not depends on my own ability. I don't just wait and say Reasonable rat!"

The gopher happily left, and after a while, Shi Qing ran over with surprise on his face: "Little lady, did you promise to keep the King Mouse?"

Li Lijun told her about the previous agreement with the gopher, and said: "We still have to see if it can really make up its mind."

"Your Majesty is fine!" Shi Qing was extremely happy, "I believe it!"

Both Li Lijun and Erhong were stunned, staring at her.Shi Qing quickly reacted, covered her red face and ran away.
