Before I knew it, several days had passed.
Life was peaceful and fulfilling.
Wang Xiaoer continued to work as an apprentice in the proprietress's shop, running errands, serving dishes, and washing dishes. Occasionally, the proprietress would tease him, making him blush.
Qinghe Miao, on the other hand, only cared about subduing demons and monsters.
They rest during the day and go out at night.
The experience value is steadily increasing.
The world of "The Bad Guys" is also progressing steadily.
The Taihang Army advanced by capturing cities and strongholds, collecting corpses, providing relief to disaster victims, recruiting soldiers and horses, and replenishing its ranks.
We are about to enter New South Wales, which is the area of Zhuolu in Hebei in later generations.
I heard that on Li Cunxu's side, since Zhu Youzhen's troops had basically all gone to attack Qi, and with Li Cunxu, the war god of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, leading the way, their advance was naturally unstoppable.
I believe it won't be long before we can capture Bianzhou.
In contrast, Qinghe Miao's troops achieved the best results wherever they went and were commended by their superiors.
However, in terms of progress alone, it lags slightly behind its colleagues on the same path.
However, seeing his troops growing stronger and his morale becoming more cohesive, Qinghe Miao didn't care.
Slow down, be steady, there's nothing wrong with that.
Build high walls, store up plenty of grain, and delay declaring yourself king.
The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period was still quite long.
The soldiers he currently commands are mostly humanoid beings.
Especially as his power grew and he came into contact with other warlord factions.
There's a growing trend of them becoming more and more human-like.
If you relax your requirements a little, you can immediately blend in and become a part of this chaotic world.
There is still a long way to go before he achieves his desired goals.
……
"Wang Xiaoer, have you lost your mind?"
As Wang Xiaoer recounted the entire story on the other end of the phone, Qing Hemiao was utterly speechless, almost laughing in exasperation.
"You want me to help you deal with the Fox Clan? And it's one of the boss's men who killed the white fox first and took his things; they were in the wrong first."
Don't you know which side I'm on? Aren't you afraid I'll side with them? Do you think I want to learn your family's "Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Demons," so you're planning to kill me on the spot too?
"I only thought of contacting you because I knew your lineage was more skilled in this area."
On the other end of the phone, Wang Xiaoer said awkwardly:
"Let's see if there's any way to resolve this peacefully."
As he used the "Seven Killing Orders of Gods and Demons" frequently during this period, more and more people learned that he knew Taoist magic.
He gradually lowered his guard.
They no longer shy away from the family's martial arts techniques as they had when they first came to the city.
So that's how it is.
He recently met a fellow practitioner in the police station named Zhuge Manzi.
This person's magical powers are not strong.
But at least he has real skills, and he's older, having spent a couple more years in the underworld.
He's somewhat well-known in the capital's social circles.
A few days ago, Zhuge Manzi, under the guise of inviting him to dinner, introduced him to a famous real estate tycoon named Zhang Qiang.
There was also a manager surnamed Niu at the dinner table.
This guy teamed up with Zhuge Manzi to set up a "honey trap".
After a few rounds of drinks, Wang Xiaoer was stunned. When he came to his senses, he was already lying in the same bed with his female secretary.
Manager Niu suddenly barged in, claiming that Wang Xiaoer had harassed General Manager Zhang's secretary and that he was going to call the police.
Only then did he reveal his true colors, saying that the matter could be settled privately, on the condition that Wang Xiaoer help him solve a problem.
What's wrong?
Not long ago, their boss, Zhang Qiang, unearthed an ancient coffin at his construction site.
Inside the coffin were two foxes, one white and one red, and an antique jar.
The foreman at the time was greedy. He killed the white fox, kept the jar, and bribed his way up to get it. In the end, the jar ended up in Zhang Qiang's hands.
Recently, the foreman died under mysterious circumstances.
Next, Manager Niu and Zhang Qiang also experienced domestic unrest and a series of strange events.
Mr. Zhang got scared, so he sought out Zhuge Manzi, who had a reputation in the martial arts world.
Zhuge Manzi, with his extensive experience in the martial arts world, immediately recognized the danger of the matter.
The fox clan, especially the five families of Hu, Huang, Bai, Liu, and Hui outside the Great Wall, are all formidable and troublesome.
Unwilling to take risks, he thought of Wang Xiaoer, whom he had just met a few days ago and who was quite skilled.
Without mentioning that Manager Niu promised to ask General Manager Zhang for one million, and would give him three hundred thousand after the matter was completed.
Wang Xiaoer was young and impetuous, but he also knew what was important.
Which of the five types of demons—fox, weasel, hedgehog, snake, and rat—is the best at dealing with them?
Of course, it's the hermitage outside the pass.
Having been dragged into this mess, he managed to negotiate a flat price of 30 million, or else they would part ways. That's when he thought of Qing Hemiao.
So I made the phone call.
The call didn't go through.
I left a short message.
Then, he went first.
After a chaotic scene, the red fox possessed Zhang Qiang's daughter and, taking advantage of his inattention, secretly tricked him with seduction.
This caused his condition to decline and his strength to plummet, just in time to run into another "metaphysical master" named Uncle Huang Jiu who came to steal his thunder.
One swift and fierce move, and he was thoroughly punished.
Zhang Qiang naturally didn't believe that someone would take advantage of his daughter and then lose a fight.
They gave Wang Xiaoer a good beating on the spot and kicked him out of the villa.
So Wang Xiaoer walked along the road with Zhuge Manzi, feeling depressed and confused.
"You're acting strange today. How come you couldn't beat that brat?"
Zhuge Manzi said.
"I don't know... I feel dizzy and weak all over."
Wang Xiaoer scratched his head, puzzled himself.
He recalled what had happened at the villa, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He complained:
"Qingmiao is really something, he's mostly out at night and probably catching up on sleep during the day. I tried calling him for help, but I couldn't get through. I don't even know if he saw the text message I left..."
Zhuge Manzi turned to look at Wang Xiaoer, and asked curiously:
"Hey, who exactly is this 'Qingmiao' you keep talking about? What's her background? Is she reliable?"
"It should be reliable."
Wang Xiaoer scratched his head and thought for a moment, then nodded seriously:
"A shaman from beyond the Great Wall, about my age, but his cultivation level seems quite high. He's always helping those in need and eliminating demons."
I've only witnessed a couple of real fights, so I don't know who's stronger. But he's the only shaman I know, so he's definitely more experienced in handling these kinds of matters.
"Outside the Great Wall?"
Zhuge Manzi pushed up his glasses, his tone tinged with doubt:
"I know a few shamans outside the pass, but I've never heard of a young man surnamed Qing. How do you know him?"
"It's a long story..."
Wang Xiaoer waved his hand, too lazy to explain in detail:
"Anyway, we know each other. They'll come when they see the text message I left."
"Then let's wait and see."
Zhuge Manzi sighed:
"It looks like this deal is going to fall through anyway."
The two continued walking forward when Wang Xiaoer suddenly remembered something and slapped his forehead:
"Oh no! The landlady is waiting for me!"
Chapter 118 Foxes from Different Worlds
Amidst Zhuge Manzi's exclamation, "Wow, how come this kid is so lucky!"
Wang Xiaoer said goodbye in a hurry and ran all the way to the landlady's residence.
At Huang Yanli's house, as soon as Wang Xiaoer knocked on the door, the landlady pulled him into the bedroom, only to find a emaciated old man on the bed.
The proprietress explained to him that the man in bed was someone she hadn't seen for six months.
His expression changed immediately when he saw the state of the person on the bed.
This person's three souls and seven spirits have been reduced to only one soul and two spirits.
It was frightening.
Wang Xiaoer had just explained the man's current state in bed to the landlady when she gave him a flirtatious look and suddenly said with a grin:
"Oh? Really? Hey old man, you haven't been back for six months, and I'm pregnant."
"Hey, boss lady?!"
Wang Xiaoer was completely stunned, with a sense of foreboding.
Looking again, sure enough, the man on the bed, who was already barely clinging to life, was almost sent away on the spot.
"It's over, even the last bit of my soul and spirit has been scared away by you."
"Oops, I didn't mean to."
The proprietress looked at his expression; he seemed completely innocent.
Wang Xiaoer was kind-hearted, so he decided to save the person first.
He used his own yang energy to call the old man's soul back.
The old man slowly regained consciousness and, after rambling incoherently, was able to recount what had happened.
He teamed up with others to raid a tomb, but they encountered zombies.
After listening, Wang Xiaoer understood.
As he came out of the inner room, the landlady clung to him again, pounced on him on the living room sofa, and invited him to play cards:
"Waiter, why don't you consider coming with me?"
Wang Xiaoer was completely smitten and about to be won over when the phone rang.
It was Zhuge Manzi who called; the daughter of the wealthy Zhang Qiang wanted them to go again.
