My love game is too abstract.

Chapter 7 Peach Fox
The peach fox's voice echoed in the wind, blowing across the campfire and causing a few leaves to dance.

Yaluo and Ji Xiaofei were both looking at her, and she looked at the starry sky with melancholy eyes.

After a long silence, Yaluo couldn't help but speak:
"and then?"

"What is time travel?" asked Ji Xiaofei.

Taohu looked down at them blankly.

"You're not surprised?"

"Because your style of painting has been completely different from the beginning," said Yaluo.

Yaluo had guessed it to some extent, but although he appeared calm on the surface, he was still not at peace inside.

I didn't expect that there was another time traveler besides myself, although it was just a fox.

But it seems that the world she traveled to, judging from the fact that she can use magic, is not Earth.

"I thought you would be quite surprised, why are you so calm? Are there many people who have traveled through time in this world?" Taohu scratched his head.

"Even if there are many, we can't tell. Which time traveler would be willing to reveal his identity?" Yaluo said.

But I hadn't thought of this before. Maybe there really are other time travelers. Why not stick a couplet on the door after I go back: "Accumulation changes, but evenness remains unchanged"? Yaluo thought.

"Then how did you get here?" he asked.

Taohu coughed twice and cleared his throat. "That story begins three hundred years ago, at the pawnshop at the foot of Yuhua Mountain."

"Wait a minute, be more concise." Yalu interrupted her immediately.

"I stole the elixir made by the Taoist priest, and he threw it into the elixir furnace. When I woke up, I was here." Taohu said.

She crossed her arms and sighed, "At first I thought we'd traveled to the West, but after some investigation, I discovered that many things here are completely different from before. Then I realized what the ancient books said was true: the universe is infinitely changing, and I've traveled to another world."

"However, fortunately, the few pills I stole gave me spiritual roots, so I simply hid in this forest to practice in seclusion. Recently, I felt that there were signs of a breakthrough in my Taoism, so I came out of seclusion and wanted to find someone with a predestined relationship to ask for a title and help me become an immortal."

Taohu looked at Yaluo and said, "A few days ago, I saw that you had an extraordinary demeanor and your pure yang energy had not yet dissipated. I thought you must be quite spiritual, so I used a little magic to borrow your clothes. I followed you for a few days and finally found an opportunity."

No wonder I felt like I was being spied on at that time.

"So, there are also many powerful spells in your world?" Yaluo asked a serious question.

As soon as these words came out, Tao Hu's expression immediately became excited and he stood up:
"Of course. The immortal cultivators in our world—oh, the mages you're talking about—are just ordinary ones. They can ride the wind and make great strides in a day. But those at the pinnacle can fill the ocean with a grain of sand and slash everything in the world with a blade of grass! Traveling through the universe is like taking a leisurely stroll in the garden. How relaxing!"

Peach Fox pulled up a piece of grass from the ground, held it in his hand and waved it.

"Wow." Although Ji Xiaofei didn't understand, she felt it was very impressive and clapped her two little hands in front of her chest.

"Then what can you do?" Yaluo asked.

Taohu froze in mid-air, and after a long moment, he sighed, "It's a pity that my comprehension is too low. I've spent decades eavesdropping on the Taoist temple, but I can only remember some techniques, and I can't even learn them. Until now, I've only learned a little bit of kung fu."

"Oh? What kind of skills did you memorize?" Ya Luo immediately became interested.
Hearing what she said, it seems that there must be a world of advanced martial arts over there. If there is some kind of great freedom magic skill, wouldn't it be a dimensionality reduction attack in this alien world?

"Hehe, that's too much." Taohu said proudly, extending his white index finger.

"For example, the Fusheng Zhaotian Gong. This technique contains the essence of heaven and earth, combined with the energy of living beings. After mastering it, one can transcend nature, see clearly and hear clearly, and observe the creation of heaven and earth."

"Can you achieve immortality?" Yaluo asked.

"It's just like trying to catch the moon in the water."

"another."

"There's also the practice of meditation. Once you've mastered it, you can enter a state of concentration in just a few breaths, cultivating your life and nature, and achieving limitless freedom."

"Can I achieve immortality?"

"It's just like looking at flowers in a mirror."

"No, can you give me something practical and useful?"

Tao Hu stroked his smooth chin, tilted his head and thought for a while: "There is also the Qigong Anshen Gong. After learning it, you no longer need to eat grains. Your body will be relaxed and free from desires."

This is some kind of Taobao 9.9 electronic version of a classic third-rate Taoist technique.
Ji Xiaofei thought for a long time and asked, "Why do you want to learn the magic of not eating? Isn't it pitiful not to be able to eat?"

"Uh, this." Taohu seemed unable to explain.

Yaluo was speechless at this moment. Seeing that she came to ask for a title, he thought she was a fox with high cultivation level. But judging from her appearance, it was probably that she was not even in the Qi training stage. His happiness was in vain.

"Go to sleep, and get up early to travel tomorrow." He had lost interest and started to get up and pack his sleeping bag. "Oh, come to think of it, we have a dual cultivation method for men and women," Taohu said, remembering it.

Yaluo stood in awe and sat down again.

"I would like to hear the details and hope that the Taoist priest can enlighten me."

"What is dual cultivation between men and women?" Ji Xiaofei asked in confusion.

"It's Cao Pi. Concubine Ji, please don't interrupt. Taoist Priest, please speak."

"Well, I just can't remember some of it. After all, I was still a fox at that time, and this technique was of no use, so I didn't look into it carefully." Peach Fox frowned and tilted his little head to recall carefully.

"Oh, I remember now. The first sentence is..."

"What is it?"

"If you want to practice this skill, you must first leave the palace!"

Ya Luo was stunned and silent for a long time. He said with twitching mouth corners:

"Are you sure this is a dual cultivation technique and not the Sunflower Manual?"

"I can't remember exactly, but it seems to be something like this?"

"What the hell! How can I practice dual cultivation after I castrated myself?" Ya Luo collapsed.

"Don't you have any normal spells? What about the Art of Immortality, the Thunder Palm, or the Seventy-two Earthly Evil Transformations?"

"How can I have that!" Taohu said in distress, "I'm just a fox who sneaked into the Taoist temple. I usually just pick up textbooks dropped by careless Taoist children and read them. I have no chance of encountering those real martial arts."

She was silent for a while, then suddenly remembered something and looked at Yaluo: "Speaking of which, young man, how did you know about these techniques? Could it be..."

Ya Luo coughed to cover it up: "I, I read a lot of novels, and this world also has a lot of novels about other worlds."

"Oh, I see." Taohu nodded and believed it.

I believe this, but it doesn't seem very smart.
"However, even if the road to becoming an immortal is so bumpy, our family will not give up," Taohu clenched his fists, with a gleam in his eyes.

"I will definitely cultivate to become an immortal and a nine-tailed fox as powerful as our ancestor! Climb the South Heaven Gate and meet the Taishang Laojun!"

Yaluo thought of the anecdotal story about Taishang Laojun and the nine-tailed fox, and after thinking about it, he decided not to tell it.

Taohu came to Yaluo, shook his hand, and said with a firm look: "Young man, I was able to transform into a human thanks to your opportunity. I must have a strong connection with you. Can you agree to my request?"

"What request?"

Yaluo moved back a little. The peach fox had a faint charming fragrance on its body, which made his body feel a little hot.

"Let me practice with you. When I become an immortal, I will definitely take you to ascend with me!" Taohu said enthusiastically.

Ya Luo sighed helplessly. Meeting such a strange fox that traveled through time, he seemed to have no reason to refuse, so he could only say:
"Okay, but you have to find a job yourself after that."

"No problem! Hehe." Taohu's face turned slightly red and she grinned at him.

[Peach Fox Favorability Increased by 100]

[Peach Fox's favorability has reached level 2. Leveling up will reward you with 20 Heart Tokens!]

"Huh? So much?" Yaluo raised his eyebrows.

"Then, we'll be companions."

"Welcome~ Hello, my name is Ji Xiaofei, it's the name Yalu gave me." Ji Xiaofei raised her hand and introduced herself.

"Oh~ What an interesting name! I'm called Peach Fox because I was born under a peach tree."

“I’m really good at making soup.”

"Really? I really want to try it."

While Taohu was talking to Ji Xiaofei, Yaluo began to check what abilities he had obtained from Taohu.

[Pseudo-Cultivator: You can copy a spell or combat skill used by another person once, and use it at will within three hours. *Note: Spells or combat skills that exceed your own strength will automatically weaken the effect to your own level after copying.]

"It feels pretty good." Yaluo was a little surprised. He thought this fox was just a second-rate cultivator, but he didn't expect that his talent was actually quite useful.

However, there is now one more person to worry about.
