The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 31 [Help! Kill the bird!]

Yun Ran glanced at the little paper figure busy picking tea leaves and casually drew a wall of air that was invisible to outsiders.

He instructed the little paper figure, "Keep an eye on these people!"

The little paper figure only had time to look up before it could answer, but Yunran's figure had already disappeared.

Following the direction of the wind, Yunran leaped a few times and reached the top of the tea mountain, looking straight at the direction of East Lake not far away.

East Lake is a very famous tourist attraction in China. From a distance, it is full of people. The tea from the tea mountain is a famous brand, and in ancient times it was even a tribute item.

In such a beautiful place, the flowers, trees, birds, insects, and rodents are more likely to develop some intelligence.

Several beautiful birds were frolicking together. To outsiders, it just looked like they were chirping, but Yunran heard them laughing at a few ungrateful young men.

Who are you laughing at?!

These extremely rare birds have long been protected animals. People usually keep their distance when they see them, afraid that if they get close, the birds will roll their eyes at them.

They are not afraid of humans at all, but now, hearing Yunran's voice, several birds turned their heads in a very human-like manner.

Its eyes, no bigger than mung beans, were filled with astonishment, and then it spread its wings, wanting to fly away from here.

But their claws seemed to be firmly attached to the ground, and they couldn't fly at all.

Help! They're killing birds!

[Someone is trying to catch a nationally protected animal! Help!]

【My Lady of the Moon, help me!!!】

……

Yunran never condemns anyone outright, whether they are spirits or wandering ghosts.

She doesn't interfere in their affairs as long as they don't do anything wrong.

However, she would not tolerate anyone harming humans without cause just because they know a few tricks.

He immediately cast a spell on the birds, giving them a little lesson.

With their current level of skill, they were already trembling with fear at Yun Ran's methods.

"Now tell me, where have those ungrateful young men you were laughing at been taken? And who is Mei Niangzi?"

Fearing another beating, the birds began to talk amongst themselves.

[Meiniangzi is a three-tailed fox imprisoned in the Garden of Regret beside East Lake. A while ago, the seal loosened, and she began to seek out men to absorb their life essence, hoping to break free of the seal.]

Yesterday, several people were captured by Mei Niangzi, but they resisted and were imprisoned by her. We don't know where they are.

……

Although these birds have developed intelligence, their level of spiritual cultivation is too low, and they do not yet have the means to commit evil.

But they clearly lack the ability to distinguish right from wrong, and if left to fend for themselves, they will sooner or later become accomplices of evil.

Yunran then placed a special restriction on them.

"It is truly difficult to develop sentience. I hope you will not waste this opportunity. If you do evil in the future, the restrictions I have placed on you will directly destroy all your cultivation."

When Yunran let them go, the ginseng fruit was somewhat puzzled.

[Host, you're actually willing to imbue them with your own restrictions. Isn't that indirectly protecting them?]
Besides, didn't you say before that those who cultivate the Tao are absolutely not sentimental like women, nor do they act like saints? They're in cahoots with those seductive women who drain people's life force.

"If they behave themselves, that restriction protects them from being targeted by evil spirits; if they commit evil, that restriction becomes a shackle on their bodies." [This is what you meant before: rather than trusting the morality and bottom line of some people, it's better to just put a knife over their heads.]

"According to the original novel's plot, it's already nearing its end, and there aren't that many messy things happening now."

But now that the suppressed three-tailed fox demon has reappeared, I suspect that our intrusion has exposed a hidden side of this world.

"Ginseng Fruit, please double-check what exactly is going on in this world of the book!"

Hearing the seriousness in Yun Ran's tone, the Ginseng Fruit was also a little worried. Could there really be a hidden plot in this world in the book that it randomly selected from the system library?

[Don't worry, host, I'll check it out right away!]

After Yunran returned to the main group, the little paper doll had already filled Yunran's pockets with the best quality buds.

Back at the foot of the mountain, while everyone was resting, Yunran picked up her phone and called Song Ye.

Song Ye answered the phone quickly, thinking that Yun Ran wanted to ask about the paper doll helping them catch people.

"Captain Song, could you give me the Special Administration Bureau's phone number?"

Song Ye was taken aback. If it were any other matter, Song Ye would not hesitate at all, but he couldn't make the decision regarding the Special Administration Bureau.

Although he hadn't had much contact with Yun Ran, he knew that Yun Ran was definitely not an ordinary person and must have something important to do.

Therefore, he did not refuse directly: "Wait a moment, I'll ask my superiors."

"Ok, I will wait for you."

Ten minutes later, Song Ye called: "The higher-ups have agreed. Someone will contact you shortly."

"Thank you, Captain Song."

"Why are you being so polite with me? I should be thanking you, thanks to your paper doll. You go ahead and get busy."

After a while, a special number came in. Yunran answered it and heard a familiar voice.

"Yunran, what brings you to the Special Administration Bureau?"

"It's you!"

Yunran had assumed that the person who contacted her was someone at the clerk level or something, but she never expected that it was actually a member of the Xie family.

Xie Xuzhi was not surprised that Yun Ran could recognize his voice; Yun Ran had already been listed as a special target by him.

Information related to Yunran will be automatically transferred to him, and he will personally handle all of it.

"It's me. Let me introduce myself. I am Xie Xuzhi, and I am also the deputy director of the Special Administration Bureau."

Ever since learning about the Xie family's status, Yunran had guessed that the young man she had met before was no ordinary person.

I never expected this guy to be a deputy director, that's impressive!

Does that mean that what she wants to say won't be passed around like a hot potato and ignored for a long time?
Yunran wasn't in the mood to reminisce with Xie Xuzhi, so she directly told him what she had discovered earlier.

"I'm just an ordinary person after all. There are too many tourists at East Lake. It's better if you handle these things."

Xie Xuzhi thought Yunran wanted to ask about the Death Mark, but unexpectedly, she discovered the Three-Tailed Fox.

Their expressions became somewhat solemn. A three-tailed fox that could be sealed was definitely not a kind person.
