Food gives me an entry, I will be invincible if I stay alive

Chapter 45 (Please read) Where in the world is not the Tao? Unlocking new spiritual materials
On the long street, the fox demon looked at the smiling scholar across from him and couldn't help but murmur:
"That family is vicious, so how can you blame the fox?"

The fox demon raised his eyes to look at the scholar opposite. The young man was still wearing a white mask. The mask had no facial features, only the eyes were hollowed out, revealing the young man's bright star-like eyes.

Somehow, although he couldn't see the other person's facial features clearly, the fox demon couldn't help but feel that the person opposite him must be extremely handsome and charming.

Linghu Yao couldn't help but feel an inexplicable excitement, as if his blood was boiling from the bottom of his heart, asking him to break through all the worldly barriers and see the vast world with bright stars and moon.

The fox demon subconsciously wanted to learn the other person's smile, and even more wanted to learn the other person's spirit.

"I..." The fox demon smiled, with the pointed corners of his mouth stretching upwards from both sides.

He felt something was wrong again, so he quickly put his hands on both sides of his cheeks and rubbed them, smoothing out his slightly stiff facial features and making the curve of his smile softer and more natural.

The fox demon then cupped his hands, bowed deeply to Chen Xu with a smile.

"I, I... Little Fox, Little Fox thanks you for teaching me!"

The fox demon was so happy and excited that she wanted to scratch her ears and cheeks on the spot, but she was hesitant and tried to measure the arc of her smile, trying her best to be elegant.

Although he was in human form and could speak human language, and was even more polite and knowledgeable than some people in some aspects, at this moment Chen Xu clearly felt as if he saw a fox with its fur still on in him.

The fox man stood up, with a pointed chin, slanted eyeliner, and a hibiscus flower pinned in his ear.

He wore a scholar's robe and a scholar's scarf, looking like a human, yet retaining his animal nature.

It's really funny, but also kind of wild and cute.

Chen Xu couldn't help but feel a little relieved when he saw this. The fox demon can be taught, which is naturally many times better than fighting it to death.

"Meeting is fate. We were just chatting casually. Why should I thank you?"

The fox was startled again, and asked cautiously, "Are we...discussing the Dao? Is this what it means to discuss the Dao?"

"Where in the world is not the Tao? Knowing to repay kindness is the Tao, keeping your promises is the Tao, and the fireworks on the long street are also the Tao." Chen Xu said, "It's not necessary to boil pine flowers for wine or brew spring water for tea to be called the Tao.

Or Taoist immortals, Confucian scholars, burning incense and tuning the zither, or elegant and refined literature...

They are the Tao, so are we not the Tao?"

The fox demon screamed "Ah", his eyes lit up, and his pounding heart became more excited.

He was overjoyed, but didn't know what to say. He adjusted the hairpin on his temples, touched the hat on his head, and couldn't help rubbing his face with his hands.

"I, I must repay you something." The fox demon said in distress, "But I promised the Lin family's child that I would hide in the coffin tomorrow to ask you if you are the murderer.

Even though he's dead, I still have to fulfill my promise. What should I do now?"

Chen Xu said, "Just fulfill your promise and ask when the time comes. As for when to ask, how to ask, and how I will react, that has nothing to do with your promise. Daoist Hu, do you think so?"

The fox demon's eyes couldn't help but light up again.

Chen Xu finally said with a smile: "Hu Daoyou, if you want to achieve enlightenment while practicing in the human world, please be sure to know one thing.

There are perfect people in this world, and there are imperfect ones. The imperfect, though in human form, possess evil natures. Such people act unpredictably, without any bounds. Though human, they are not human, but merely termites.

Fellow Daoist Hu, please do not learn from that termite, be blinded by this corrupt world, and lose your bottom line.

Today we meet, and we call each other "fellow Daoist." If we are lucky enough to meet again in the future, I hope we can still call each other "fellow Daoist."

After saying that, he took off his mask.

The fox demon stared at him blankly, his words swirling in his mind, and his face couldn't help but imitate his expression. For a moment, his back straightened a little, and the slightly stiff and exaggerated expression on his face seemed much softer and more natural.

The fox demon wore wide sleeves and folded his hands in front of him. He saluted solemnly and said, "I will do so. I dare not deviate."

Chen Xu returned the greeting, saying, "My name is Chen Xu, and I'm honored to meet you, Daoist Fellow Hu." The fox demon stuttered for a moment and then said hurriedly, "My name is Hu Xi, and I'm honored to meet you, Daoist Fellow Chen."

The man and the demon greeted each other and said goodbye.

Until the fox demon said goodbye and left, Chen Xu suddenly heard noisy voices in his ears. In just that instant, all the noise in the world came back.

There were only pedestrians walking on the long street and the night market was bustling. Where was the shadow of the fox demon?
Our meeting under the lantern light was just like a dream in a strange story.

But Chen Xu knew that all this was not a dream, because the fox demon also gave him three fox hairs before leaving.

Now the fox fur is still in my hand, it is real, magical and beautiful.

[Fox demon whiskers, roasted and ground into powder, can be mixed with other ingredients to create Black Fox Rejuvenating Powder, which can stop bleeding, promote tissue regeneration, heal injuries, and is also effective for practitioners.]

[Form a bond with the fox demon, obtain a new type of spiritual material, and be rewarded with +300 Fireworks Points.]

Chen Xu was immediately pleasantly surprised. With a fireworks value of +300, he could go back and unlock the second level of fire control or the wind calling technique!

Just as Chen Xu was about to put the three fox furs in his hand into the fireworks kitchen in his joy, he suddenly heard a surprised voice from behind him: "Here, here, the evil spirit is ahead. Quick, Ah Jue, let's go!"

When I turned around, what caught my eye was a very conspicuous man and a donkey.

I saw a young Taoist priest in a blue robe holding a compass in one hand and pulling a gray donkey with the other, dragging it forward with great effort.

The man moves forward and the donkey moves backward.

The young Taoist priest was first happy, then anxious, and finally angry: "The evil spirit is right in front of us, stupid donkey, if you keep arguing with me, the evil spirit will run away again. Oh, hurry up..."

The donkey didn't move, it just kept braying, and it was moving back even further.

"Ajue!" The young Taoist first shouted angrily, then turned to a sad face, "Ancestor, can I call you Ancestor? I won't ride you next time. Let's go quickly."

The young Taoist priest gave in, and the donkey stopped retreating.

The donkey finally agreed to move forward obediently. The young Taoist priest was delighted, but suddenly he looked down at the compass in his hand.

Hey, the compass needle is wrong again.

"Ah!" On the long street, the young Taoist priest let out a scream like a donkey being slaughtered. "The evil spirit is gone again? Ahhh, stupid donkey, stubborn donkey, I'm going to fight you to death!"

“Wheeze, wheeze—”

At the other end of the long street, Chen Xu quietly put the three fox furs in his hand into the fireworks kitchen. Once the fox furs were taken away, the so-called evil spirit naturally disappeared.

He played with the two masks in his hands and passed by the little Taoist priest.

The young Taoist priest, leading the donkey, suddenly turned around and exclaimed, "Huh!" He ran to Chen Xu enthusiastically, bowed, and said, "Sir, I am the 72nd generation disciple of the Qingxu Taoist Palace. My Taoist name is Xuanyi. I have come south to gain experience and gain knowledge of the world and to subdue demons and catch ghosts.

I see that this believer has an extraordinary aura and I think his knowledge must be far beyond that of ordinary people. I would like to ask, have you seen any monsters in this area?"

Chen Xu looked at the young Taoist Xuanyi and asked curiously, "The night market is bustling with people, why do you think I can identify demons? I'm just an ordinary mortal, how can you take my words of extraordinary aura for granted?"

The young Taoist priest Xuanyi was stunned by the question. He scratched his head and stammered, "Isn't it true? No, that's not right. The moment I saw you, I knew you were different from ordinary people. My feeling can't be wrong..."

Chen Xu was anxious to go back and practice, so he immediately said to him seriously, "The theory of feeling is illusory, so how can it be correct?

Taoist Priest, please don't be fooled by your own illusions. Goodbye."
