Becoming a Fox Spirit from Under One Person.

“It’s not what I imagined,” Chen Ruoan said.

Their way of getting along is too gentle.

Compared to the bored fox, Wei Shufen watched with great interest:

"I think the atmosphere is great. The book describes them as reserved and restrained, saying nothing, but everything they do seems to say everything."

"I see."

What's truly strange is the idea that foxes are out of step with the times.

"Where is Zhang Huaiyi?" Chen Ruoan asked.

Wei Shufen retorted, "Aren't we guarding the body?"

"···"

Having observed Liu's journey for several days, Chen Ruoan seemed to understand that restraint and subtlety.

The fox recalled a saying, "You cannot have youth and the feeling of youth at the same time," but the current atmosphere of the Republic of China era was too far removed from the youth he was familiar with. Everything was restrained to the point of gentleness, as clean as a soft breeze blowing through the mountains and fields.

The connection between Liu Zhixing and Miao Xiang is becoming increasingly vibrant.

Four days later, the girl, who had been sickly and shy, dared to wipe Liu Zhixing's sweat. The corpse driver's few changes of clothes were also washed several times in a wooden basin.

"Although fate has a backup plan, I dare to encourage Brother Liu to charge forward for love, but this is just too smooth."

Could it be that "sincerity" is truly the ultimate weapon forever?

Um--

After a moment's thought, Chen Ruoan extended his fox paw towards Wei Shufen.

"It's for you."

"What is that?" All Wei Shufen could see were the fox's carefully maintained paw pads.

"plum bossom."

It's snowing! It's snowing!

A group of young painters came to the snow.

The chick draws bamboo leaves, the puppy draws plum blossoms...

Foxes belong to the canine family, so they should be depicted as plum blossoms.

Wei Shufen understood immediately, covered her mouth and laughed, "You're so silly."

Chen Ruoan withdrew his claws.

See? I knew it wasn't that simple. Wasn't this joke "sincere"?

A fox and a man sat by the stream. Liu Zhixing hurriedly ran out of the house, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Is Daoist Huaiyi not here today either?"

"I'm guarding your body," Chen Ruoan replied.

"I owe him a huge favor."

Liu Zhixing clenched his fists, hesitating as if he wanted to speak, organizing his thoughts countless times before finally saying:

“Brother Ruoan, thanks to your matchmaking, I understand now! This is not about heroism or a savior complex at all. It's simply because Miao Xiang is a good girl, and I want to have a future with her.”

"I'm setting off tomorrow, and I was thinking of leaving something behind to prove that I won't break my promise. But all I have is a soul banner and a soul-capturing bell, which don't seem suitable to be given away."

Chen Ruoan stirred up life, and several tender branches crawled out from the bushes by the stream.

Liu Zhixing immediately understood, and then picked some grass, kudzu vines and grass stems, wove them into rings by hand, and decorated them with all kinds of flowers.

After delivering the items, he soon returned happily with long strides.

"The Miao girl was very happy. She gave me this to ensure a safe journey."

In Liu Zhixing's hand was a cross-shaped peace knot woven by Miao Xiang herself from palm leaves, with a rounded bone bead embedded in the center.

"The craftsmanship is good. What kind of bone is in the middle?" Chen Ruoan asked.

"Uh—fox bone."

"Hmm?" Chen Ruoan looked at the inlaid animal bone bead suspiciously: "Where did the local belief in 'animism' go?"

"Hehe~" Liu Zhixing chuckled sheepishly, "I told Miss Miao Xiang that I would come to pick her up after I finish this last trip."

The fox gave a dead fish-like look.

Look, he's setting another goal!

Chen Ruoan had no reply, so she lightly jumped out and stood on the roof of a small house, closing her eyes to concentrate.

The precious tree within the soul condensed into a new precious document, radiating a dazzling array of colors.

Some honest people, when reciprocated with sincerity, can forge excellent relationships.

Judging from the purple tinged with gold, the fox and the corpse driver will probably meet again someday.

[The Liu Family of Western Hunan, the Corpse-Driving Clan, Liu's Journey]

Chen Ruoan stood beneath the precious scroll, pulled the thread of fate, and prayed:

"I want to add another chapter to our wonderful relationship, and through our joint efforts, steer the uncertain future in a 'good' direction."

With his wish fulfilled, the light of the precious document fell heavily to the ground. The fox reached out to catch it, and the radiance merged into the "plum blossom".

Chapter 101 Touch Me

"No way, no way, could this be!?"

When Chen Ruoan opened his eyes, his first thought was of the absurd ability to manipulate fate and change the course of a person's destiny. But then he thought that the purple treasure would not have such power, so he lowered his expectations.

Examining the fox's paws, Chen Ruoan found nothing unusual; the entanglement lines above the heads of others remained visible but untouchable.

They thought they could be like the God of Marriage, holding the marriage register of the world, pulling the red thread, and tying the red rope to the feet of men and women. Even if they were enemies, rich and poor, or separated by thousands of miles, as long as the red rope was tied, they would surely be bound by love.

I thought I could be a matchmaker between Jiangnan the old scoundrel and Herzog.

Really sorry.

Chen Ruoan jumped off the roof and looked at the red thread connecting Liu Zhixing and Miao Xiang, then at the peace knot ornament inlaid with animal bone beads.

Could it be...?

"Brother Liu, give me your token of love."

"It's a bit embarrassing to say that," Liu Zhixing said with a smile, handing the item to the fox. "First of all, I want to clarify that there is absolutely no offense intended in using the fox bone. This bone is from a long time ago."

"It's ok."

Chen Ruoan took the animal bone peace knot and fiddled with it for a while. The knot immediately emitted a faint blue light, which was very similar to the light produced when nurturing a fox pendant, but its quality far surpassed the latter.

A point that only a weapon refiner can manipulate—the Divine Light.

This peace knot has become a "vessel".

"Providing people with protective artifacts can, to some extent, prevent them from dying. What a straightforward approach."

This wishing tree really doesn't want to use its brain at all.

Chen Ruoan once again observed the fate between the two, and the red thread could be faintly continued.

"Here you go."

Since it was a token of their agreed-upon love, Liu Zhixing would treasure it as a precious gift without needing many further instructions.

"Brother Liu, now that you have someone to worry about, and someone to worry about you, you must be careful in your actions from now on. Learn a lot from Big Ear Thief."

Chen Ruoan patted Liu Zhixing on the shoulder, offering a friendly reminder.

Swish!

The fox's paws gleamed with golden light, giving Liu Zhixing a glossy sheen. The corpse driver felt completely refreshed, his strength greatly increased, and even the hidden injuries on his knees from years of trekking through mountains and rivers disappeared.

"what?"

"what?"

The fox and the corpse driver exclaimed in surprise, simultaneously realizing that something was wrong.

"Brother Ruo'an, touch me again. I feel like you touched me... how to describe it, it feels a little good."

nonsense!

Chen Ruoan was secretly amazed. How could he not be pleased? That light was the light of divine wisdom, which meant that Liu Zhixing was about to become a "product".

Humans are products of the creation of heaven and earth, and as "vessels," they can also be refined.

Old Ma was right.

Liu Zhixing put on an expectant expression, but the fox refused.

Humans are "tools," but their inherent potential has an upper limit. Liu Zhixing's current state is only the result of his potential being unleashed. No matter how much he is manipulated or played with, he will not be able to reach a higher level.

Great talents mature late; they conceal their abilities and await their time—this phrase, it turns out, refers to this very "ability"...

Liu Zhixing took another step forward, and Wei Shufen hurriedly hugged the fox in her arms: "What are you doing? What are you talking about touching? Two men, it's very strange."

"It was really great!" Liu Zhixing continued to display his candid and generous demeanor.

Chen Ruoan looked up and explained, "You may not understand things outside of Gu, but what is happening right now is entirely in the realm of weapon crafting. I just gave Brother Liu an opportunity to achieve great things."

Just like the Grand Elder of Namek, a touch can further stimulate the human body's potential.

The exercise of one's abilities is based on one's own Qi Sea and "life cultivation," and it will consume mental and physical energy.

The fox was a little tired. In a daze, this method of refining a human into a weapon reminded him of a famous line of poetry:

An immortal touched my head, and I was granted eternal life.

"Is it really that comfortable?" Wei Shufen asked the fox, looking down at her.

Liu Zhixing, who was standing nearby, answered for Chen Ruoan: "It really feels comfortable!"

The girl nodded and said softly, "How about you touch me?"

Chen Ruoan thought that in terms of talent and aptitude, Wei Shufen was definitely superior to Liu Zhixing. When she used her Qi and mental energy, she would naturally consume more energy, so she would probably need to carefully manipulate and infuse it.

Be careful.
