Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person.

As a Chinese fox, it naturally has a "pastoral complex." If it could use some supernatural powers to break through the limitations of the mountain environment, then the people who are exploited down in the mountains would not have to go hungry this winter.

The fox asked the panda, "Jinbao, do you want to walk openly and honestly among people, and even freely enter and leave the Cold Arrow Bamboo Forest?"

"May I?"

"There are Liangshan shamans outside the mountains who are experts in matters of spirits. If you don't mind, you can choose to form a contract with one of them. The cooperation between the shaman and the spirit will greatly benefit your future cultivation."

"I hope that guy has a better temper."

Upon reflection, Chen Ruoan concluded that Feng Tianyang was undoubtedly the most promising talent of the Liangshan shaman lineage.

With Feng Tianyang's talent and Jinbao's supernatural abilities, if they can successfully work together, ensuring that all the villagers have enough to eat will not be difficult at all.

I just don't know what the kid and his elders think.

Chen Ruoan took Jinbao with him and temporarily left the lush "Little Paradise".

Having escaped the deep mountains, the two brothers, having failed to catch the fox, were wandering outside the mountains. Their father, Feng Shoushan, waited in the distance, gazing up at the snow-capped peaks.

Suddenly, an incredibly pure yin energy descended from the sky, sprinkling onto the ground covered with a thin layer of snow.

"Fellow fox, you're back? The clansmen were rude just now, please forgive them. They've never seen a legendary elf before, so they made a series of foolish moves and made a complete fool of themselves," Feng Shoushan said, bowing.

The fox replied, "It's alright. Mr. Wind, I'd like to discuss with you the matter of the Heavenly Nurtured Spirit."

"Could it be that you're interested?" Feng Shoushan rubbed his hands together expectantly.

"It's a friend of mine."

"Hmm—" Feng Shoushan pondered for a moment. Although he was a little disappointed, he thought that since this was a friend of the fox spirit, his cultivation level must be just as good. So he nodded happily.

The fox raised its paw to indicate the distance, where a large black and white ball peeked out from behind a boulder, looking timid and wary.

"Sorry, you've seen the big fat bear. Should I leave?"

Once outside the deep mountain cave, Jinbao immediately lost his confidence.

Upon seeing each other, the brothers Tian Sheng and Tian Yang's eyes gleamed, and they waved in unison.

"It's a panda, a giant panda!"

"So cool!"

handsome?

Feng Shoushan only saw Hanhan.

He carefully leaned close to the fox's ear and whispered, "How skilled is your friend?"

Chen Ruoan naturally understood Feng Shoushan's concerns. The choice of a wizard's natal spirit would greatly affect the wizard's future development.

The cultivation potential of elves is too low. When they encounter more powerful elves, they often cannot be tamed directly through battle. On the other hand, befriending them with sincerity is too much of a test of the wizard's personal charisma.

"Sigh~" Feng Shoushan sighed, "Everyone says that wizards are the lucky ones among the supernatural, but who knows our suffering? If only we had a spell to befriend elves."

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Chen Ruoan pretended to cough a few times; this idea was dangerous.

In reality, there are only poison spells that force elves to obey.

The fox corrected, "True sincerity must be exchanged for true sincerity for the ocean to embrace all rivers. This is the healthy way to interact."

"This panda is named Jinbao. It can improve the soil with its feces and even enhance the vitality of some plants. In a cave deep in the mountains, thanks to Jinbao's innate abilities, it is now a lush and vibrant spring scene."

Feng Shoushan was stunned: "This?"

For this land beneath our feet, Jinbao's supernatural powers are a timely and divine intervention.

"It's too dangerous!" Feng Shoushan exclaimed.

Where is it dangerous?

“Those ‘gentlemen’ also have powerful shamans by their side, whose methods are no less sophisticated than ours.”

In today's chaotic world, some extraordinary individuals may gather skilled fighters and dominate a region, but these are few and far between. More extraordinary individuals choose to become "weapons" in the hands of certain forces.

They could be used to protect leaders of powerful groups or to carry out assassinations against enemies.

According to Tingfeng Shoushan, the situation around Liangshan is even more unique, as there exists a hereditary, insurmountable hierarchical system based on blood ties.

The "gentlemen" wearing black hats considered themselves of noble and pure blood, while the poor were considered inferior and born to be of lower status. This concept of bloodline hierarchy was deeply ingrained and became the fundamental principle governing the local society.

So even if there is grain to be produced in the mountains, it will still be forcibly confiscated by the "masters" under various pretexts. Jinbao, who possesses extraordinary talents, will become a coveted target for the enemy shamans.

“Fellow fox, you are in danger too. Those high and mighty guys are not as easy to talk to as we are.”

“That sounds very dangerous,” Chen Ruoan pondered. “Then let’s give it a try and help you get through this winter first.”

"this···"

Feng Shoushan wanted to persuade him further, but Chen Ruoan had already walked towards Feng Tianyang. The little devil was hanging on the panda's body, swinging on a swing with his arms wrapped around the bear's head.

"Little devil... Tianyang, how about you become friends with this panda?"

“Sure!” Feng Tianyang replied crisply.

"From now on, Jinbao will be under your care."

The giant panda nodded: "You should take me to the cold arrow bamboo forest often, because I have a big appetite."

Feng Tianyang nodded vigorously, as if pounding garlic, and the matter was settled.

After that, under Chen Ruoan's command, the extraordinary people from the surrounding villages took the lead in heading into the deep mountains to plant the fertile fields cultivated by Jinbao.

Taking advantage of its habitat in the mountains and fields, the fox also used the wood element magic it had learned to plant grain seeds in several remote areas.

Those "gentlemen" quickly noticed the unusual situation and sent people to investigate in the surrounding villages.

Because the hierarchical system had been passed down for so long, some people simply couldn't withstand the pressure from their superiors, and the fact that they had stored grain deep in the mountains was soon exposed.

Just then, a strange thing happened: whenever a villain ventured into the deep mountains, he would always encounter a thick fog that clouded his vision. Those villains who liked to bully others would perish in the fog.

A mountain became a dead end, a place where anyone who set foot there was certain death.

Those "gentlemen" were not giving up and forcibly seized grain from the people. However, more and more strange things happened. When the grain was brought back into the cabin, it would wriggle around like a worm, and even some shamans could not explain why.

Over time, no one dared to pursue the matter of the deep mountains anymore.

When spring arrives, the snow on the mountaintops has not yet melted, but the buckwheat on the slopes sprouts new green leaves, scattered rhododendron flowers bloom on the cliff edges, and the cold arrow bamboo forest gradually buds.

The mountains and fields are quiet and peaceful, with the occasional trace of wild animals treading on the fresh mud. The wisps of smoke from the village hearths drift in the morning mist, and amidst the desolation, a hint of life slowly emerges from the early awakening of the deep mountains.

Zhao Shanhai knelt before Chen Ruoan and pleaded, "Master, do the people who died in the mountains harbor any resentment?"

"Those who enjoy more pleasures in life than ordinary people will naturally harbor deeper resentment after death than ordinary people."

"Then can you find a way to transform this place into a dangerous place similar to the 'Boundary Between Yin and Yang'? I want to stay here."

Chen Ruoan raised her head slightly: "You're thinking of taking on a new relationship?"

"Well, although you always say that we Qing Dynasty remnants are no good, that we love wearing queues and are spineless, after following our master on this trip, I think I've probably learned something and grown a little bit."

At this moment, Zhao Shanhai was thinking about the "noble men" who had exploited his wife and children and caused their tragic deaths.

"My lord, I want to kill the emperor!"

“Hmm—” Chen Ruoan stared at the kneeling ghost for a long time before saying, “Then stand up first.”

Chapter 70 The Fox's Business Scope Is Getting Wider and Wider

Zhao Shanhai hurriedly stood up, and the spiritual body formed by the condensed Yin Qi became even darker and clearer.

In recent months, due to the activities of the mountain shamans, Zhao Shanhai has swallowed many "gentle breezes" that were transformed from the dead villains in the mist.

Yin ghosts can devour other Yin ghosts and become stronger into "fierce spirits." Even at the cost of a little bit of rationality, Zhao Shanhai felt he had made a huge profit.

Chen Ruoan bent her back and stretched her body comfortably.

Since ancient times, defeating the many with the few, the strong with the weak, and killing enemies of higher ranks have always been exhilarating experiences. Moreover, Zhao Shanhai has a blood feud with the "gentlemen" wearing black hats.

“Kill, then kill,” the fox replied.

"I am unworthy, and have failed to transform my Qi into a gentle breeze and return my soul to heaven and earth. I am afraid I will disappoint my master's expectations."

The fox laughed and said, "Don't underestimate yourself. From this day forward, you will be the guardian spirit of this mountain wilderness."

After saying that, Chen Ruoan leaped up, stepping on the light, floating clouds, and left the mountains and fields where spring was about to awaken.

The technique of controlling souls has been lifted.

There was no place for Yin Qi to accumulate, nor any method to bind the spirit, yet Zhao Shanhai's soul and body remained unharmed, showing no signs of dissipation.

Ok?

He carefully sensed that his connection with this world was still intact. His soul was hanging next to an incense table, and next to that, there was another memorial tablet with Chen Ruoan's name written on it.

"master···"

No.

"Thank you, Mr. An."

···

The fox flew across the mountains and came to a mountain valley. It stepped on a few scattered rooftops with its paws, leaped dozens of meters, and then stepped into another house.

The men went hunting in the mountains, leaving only women and girls in the houses.

The fox stood in the courtyard, and sometimes on the wall. Whenever a villager saw it, it would greet him warmly.

Previously, they were all thin and bony, with withered flesh, but now they have gained some real fleshiness. Their cheeks are no longer sunken, their arms have shed their skin and bones, and even their previously wrinkled chests have slightly bulged out. The fox can feel the warmth of living people when it sees them.

"Should we say that Jinbao and I have extraordinary abilities, or that these people are simply born with excellent foundations?"

Looking at the chest that was showing significant improvement, the fox actually felt a sense of accomplishment.

You lecherous fox!

Zhang Zhiwei's words came out out of nowhere.

Oh no!

Could it be that the Taoist priest really used the word "lust" to confer my official title back then?

Inside, the fire pit glowed warmly, making everything cozy and cozy. The fox curled up obediently on the girl's lap, its fur gently combed by delicate fingertips. Its fox eyes were half-closed, giving it a lazy and contented look.
