Fairy, don't try to mess with my filial piety

"That's not the case. At night, if there's something lively on the street, my sister and I will chat for a while. If there's nothing to pay attention to, we will meditate and sleep."

Is it so silent and boring? I feel like this is the way strange roommates get along... Chu Wuji was a little surprised and asked:

"in argument?"

"No, my sister and I were like this when we were practicing in seclusion. With a lifespan of hundreds of thousands of years, how could we have so many topics to talk about all the time? We trusted each other, were intimate, and lay together naturally and harmoniously. Does not talking mean we are alienated?"

That's right. If you feel awkward because of a moment of silence, care about it in your heart, and force yourself to find topics to maintain the superficial liveliness, then this is actually being awkward.

Chu Wuji asked again: "Then... did mother mention anything about you and me, aunt?"

Aunt Qing Snake was silent for a moment, then said helplessly, "This is what I want to know, but I didn't dare ask my sister for fear of being scolded..."

As if feeling that time was running out, the pretty face of the girl in green skirt moved closer. She stretched out her long and flexible tongue, pried open Chu Wuzhi's mouth, and searched for the prey hiding inside.

At this time, Bai Sujin, who had sent the little princess back to the palace, returned to the old house in an instant and happened to see this scene.

Bai Sujin was helpless and said quietly, "Xiaoqing, can you tell me what you are doing?"

Aunt Qingshe's face froze, and she sighed with regret in her heart. However, she was not regretful about being discovered, but felt that she had just talked with Chu Wuji for too long and wasted time.

"I'm checking Wu Ji's tongue coating and diagnosing him." The green snake made up an excuse and quickly loosened its tongue, no longer wrapping around Chu Wu Ji.

"Did you figure out what it was?" Bai Sujin asked obediently.

"He has a very bad temper and needs me, his aunt, to help him cool down..."

Aunt Green Snake stopped talking nonsense when she saw her sister White Snake's serious expression. She argued with reason and muttered:

"Oh, sister, didn't you say in the early years that Wuji is our child, our relative, our relative, my relative, isn't this just a kiss..."

Chu Wuji felt like he seemed to understand how his mother and aunt got along.

He tried to change the subject and said, "Mother, Yao'er has been sent back, right? Can we set off into the mountains now?"

Chapter 179 The Growth of Little White Tiger

Bai Sujin glared at her sister, then looked at her son Chu Wuji, her eyes softened, and she replied:

"Okay, it's almost time to go for a walk in the mountains. I haven't been out for a few years since I settled down in Lihuo Capital."

Aunt Green Snake was treated differently, but she did not feel resentful. Family members should be humble to the youngest generation.

If they were sisters or brothers of the same age, only one or two years apart, there would probably be a big fight, but Chu Wuji was too young compared to the green snake, and his desire to protect her was greater than his desire to fight.

Not to mention that the White Snake was on Chu Wuzhi's side, even the Green Snake herself, after accepting and recognizing this family member, was on this younger generation's side.

Green Snake was a little surprised. She bit Chu Wuji's mouth right in front of him, but her sister White Snake didn't say anything. She just said a few words lightly and then stopped. So...

It should be okay to just make out in the house next time, right?

Green Snake didn't think much about it. She took the opportunity to join in the conversation, trying to get over the previous topic as soon as possible. She said:

"It's only been a few years. I haven't lived in Lihuo Capital for long. Why are you feeling so emotional?"

While packing her things, Bai Sujin replied unhappily:

"When I was in seclusion, I spent more than ten years in seclusion, and my perception of time was not deep. I could only judge it by the changes in my cultivation. In the past few years in Lihuo Capital, I have been busy every day, and the feeling is different."

Aunt Green Snake crossed her arms and thought about it. She felt that there was some truth in it and nodded.

"It's a little different. I've been out a few times recently... never mind."

She interrupted herself angrily. She was just about to say that she had gone out several times to confirm Chu Wuzhi's life or death, and she was so busy running back and forth that she felt like two or three years had passed. But when she looked back, it was just the end of the twelfth lunar month, and less than a year had passed.

It would be better not to mention her two experiences of going out to look for Chu Wuzhi in front of her sister Bai She, as it would only bring trouble to herself.

When the time comes for her to shed her skin, and her skin is itchy but she is too lazy to rub it against tree branches, she will bring up this matter and let her sister White Snake give her a beating.

"Is there anything I can help you clean up?" asked Aunt Green Snake.

Chu Wuji looked around the courtyard. In fact, everything was almost packed. He said, "Auntie will be drinking tea over there for a while."

The two big sheep and horses had been brought to the yard in advance. They would be walking in the mountains for a few days, and they would also find some seasonal spiritual fruits for them to eat.

The Fox Goddess did not follow him. Her short "outing" away from the bodies of the princess and others would not have much impact, but Chu Wuji still wanted her to find a new breathing method as soon as possible, so he spent a whole night working hard to satisfy her and let her put away her playful thoughts and rest.

Now, even if Chu Wuji temporarily leaves Princess Jing'an, she will not be affected too much by the cold, because with the blessing of the "Practice to Heaven" of the Fox Goddess, the princess's physical body has improved, and she can more or less endure the slight discomfort of the cold, but it is definitely not as comfortable as when Chu Wuji is by her side.

"I'd better not bring this giant chopping block blade for now. I'll just use a straight knife. Otherwise, the horse will be crushed by it."

Chu Wuji really wanted to bring the "chopping board" with him, but regretfully he could only take a straight knife, wrap it with a cloth and wear it on his waist.

He added, "Okay, but we only have two horses, how do we divide them?"

Aunt Green Snake looked nonchalant. She shrugged and said, "Wu Ji and sister will each have one. I will transform into a snake and wrap myself around Wu Ji's arm."

Bai Sujin wasn't really interested in riding horses, but after hearing what her sister said, she changed her mind:

"Xiaoqing, you ride one horse, and Wuji and I will ride the other one."

"Sister, how about we switch?"

"No."

After the discussion was complete, the family of three mounted their horses in the yard. Then the scene before them changed, and they were already outside the gate of the capital, with the road into the mountains not far away.

The two foals were so happy that they could finally come out for a walk. They carried the riders on their backs and trotted happily on the spot, turning around in two small circles.

They still looked like blonde girls, wearing the Taoist robes of the Shenxiao Sect.

The guards guarding the city gate and the woodcutter preparing to go into the mountains were all stunned.

"You got up early. What did you see just now?"

"The white-haired man on horseback seems to be a deity from Prince Jing'an's palace. This is probably a deity's mount!"

"The current status of the Jing'an Palace is extraordinary. It used to be a neutral and idle palace, but now it has become an 'immortal' palace, but it is still non-contentious."

"That makes sense. I was wondering who was so vile and despicable as to not even spare the mare and create a centaur foal!"

After the passerby exclaimed a few words, he looked in the original direction again, but the person there no longer existed, as if he had just been hallucinating.

*

Three people and two horses were walking in the Lihuo Mountains in the cold winter, as if they had walked into a desolate and windy forbidden area. There was complete silence, with only the howling wind and snow.

The two foals ran very fast, and the faster they ran, the more they ran. Before noon, they entered an uninhabited area in the deep mountains.

There is no trace of woodcutters or hunters around. The saying "no birds fly in the thousands of mountains, no people are seen in the thousands of paths" becomes so vivid and accurate here.

Although it was a bit quiet, the foal ran happily, and sometimes you could hear the curious babbling of the two little girls, but unfortunately they couldn't speak yet.

"Wu Ji, what are you going to do in the mountains this time? To find seasonal spiritual energy?" Aunt Qingshe didn't know what this trip was for, she thought it was just for fun.

"It's related to the tempering of the physical body and is crucial for subsequent improvement. If it doesn't work, there's no need to waste energy. Specifically, we need to find Baihu Shanjun, the king of a certain mountain range."

"It's not easy to find. The Lihuo Mountains are so huge. Just looking at the area of ​​the entire mountain range, it's comparable to many small countries."

Bai Sujin said as she helped to sense the aura of the place. Unfortunately, the spiritual energy in the forest was quite mixed and changed quickly, making it difficult to search.

"It's okay. Baihushanjun left behind a way to contact me."

Chu Wuji dismounted and opened a specially made tinderbox. The tinderbox spontaneously combusted, and a foul smell immediately spread far away.

The shit smoke gradually drifted away, and the gray smoke spread. Many hibernating animals were awakened by the smoke, and ran out of their caves, at a loss.

The foals were frightened by the terrible stench and hurriedly hid away. They originally couldn't use their arms, but because of the stench, they learned to cover their noses with their hands.

"This white tiger poop stinks so bad?!"

Aunt Green Snake was eating a sesame cake when she lost her appetite. Even though she held her breath, she couldn't get her appetite back.

She generously handed the pancake to Chu Wuzhi.

This is how an aunt pampers her younger generation!

Bai Sujin held her breath quickly and was not affected. Seeing her sister's embarrassment, she smiled and asked again:

"Wuji, is this the means of communication left by the little white tiger?"

"Yes, but I'm worried that this isn't Baihushanjun's territory. We might have to go further in and light another fire stick then."

Chu Wuji smiled awkwardly. He hadn't expected this thing to be so powerful. How had the servants of Prince Jing'an's mansion been able to handle the smell? Or did the smell of the little white tiger's poop get stronger as it dried and aged?

The tinder was about to burn out when suddenly, a tiger's roar shook the forest. The snow on the old trees fell and the hibernating animals fled in all directions.

Not long after, a little girl wearing a tiger-head hat ran out. She coughed softly, as if the tiger's roar just now had choked her throat.

"You scoundrel who feeds me low-quality meat, stop burning stinking shit in the mountains!"

Chapter 180: The Pillar of the House

Bai Sujin and Aunt Green Snake had sharper perceptions. They had already sensed an unusual aura before the tiger's roar shook the mountains and forests.

Now it seems to be this little girl.

The girl who walked out of the wind and snow looked to be about ten years old, half a head shorter than the little princess in the palace. She was tender and cute, with a rosy face and no dryness. She was not affected by the cold and felt like she was in the spring breeze.

Her white tiger-head hat is very large, and her fierce little face is hidden under the hat, making her look even more cute and innocent, while also giving people the illusion that she is frail.

But in this deep winter when everything is withering and life is bleak, if you really think that a woman who can run outside barefoot in a tiger-skin halter skirt is weak, you will be in trouble, because she may bite you unexpectedly.

When Chu Wuji saw this little kid, he wanted to touch her head, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was bitten by the little white tiger.

Although he didn't bite with the intention of killing, it certainly wouldn't be too gentle. The little canine fangs left a circle of neat and small teeth marks on Chu Wuzhi's hand.

Chu Wuji sighed that her teeth were powerful and said with a smile:

"I used to be curious about why this part of the palm is called the tiger's mouth. Now it seems that it doesn't matter if I don't explore it. I've already been bitten by the tiger's mouth."

The little white tiger felt his teeth were a little numb and muttered:

"You two-legged beast, Qilin, how come your skin is so tough? I can barely bite it without leaving a mark... cough cough."

The girl's voice was hoarse. It seemed that the tiger roar just now had really strained her throat.

Perhaps he discovered that the little princess of the palace was not among the people who came, so he hid in the dark and suddenly roared to scare Chu Wuzhi, but he ended up using too much force.

No wonder the little white tiger can transform, but Baihushanjun still didn't let her go to play with Yaoer. It turns out that she is not well-trained and has not yet developed the ability to protect herself!

Chu Wuji looked around a few times and didn't see the huge figure, so he knew that Baihu Shanjun had not come. She was relieved that the little white tiger came to find him, Chu Wuji.

"I brought some dried bacon. Do you want to eat it?" Chu Wuzhi said without asking anything else.

We haven't seen each other for a long time, so we have to revitalize our relationship first.

The little white tiger looked at Chu Wuji suspiciously, worried about food safety. She confirmed, "Did you bring it, or did Yao'er bring it?"

"Yao'er isn't here, so I have to bring everything here. Don't you want to eat it?"

"I have to inspect the goods first before eating them." The little white tiger looked very smart and alert.

He led the little white tiger girl to the vicinity of two big sheep horses. After all, the horses were afraid of the beasts in the forest. This was their natural suppression. Their hooves stepped restlessly, and they only felt at ease after hiding beside Chu Wuzhi.

They also learned to cover their eyes with their hands, thinking that as long as they couldn't see the little white tiger, they would be safe.

Bai Sujin and Aunt Green Snake smiled at this. They were both powerful demons, and watching this scene was like watching a few cute and clever little animals playing around.

Chu Wuji flipped through the pack bag on the horse's back and asked, "Do you want something spicy, or something salty, or dried pork, or dried fish?"

The little white tiger stood on tiptoe, trying to raise his sight, swallowing his saliva: "Test them all for me, I haven't tasted them yet, so make a decision after you've tasted them!"

Her mother, Baihu Shanjun, has already practiced fasting. Breathing in spiritual energy can replace hunting for food, and she eats more spiritual fruits than meat. However, the little white tiger has not reached that level yet, and still mainly hunts for meat.

But there were no conditions for cooking in the mountains, and she didn't know how to grill meat, so she basically ate raw meat and drank blood in the form of animals.

Just listening to Chu Wuji's few simple descriptions made her drool.

"Drink some water to moisten your throat first. You just yelled and it hurt. Drink some water before you eat."

Chu Wuzhi took the water bag. The White Tiger girl was a little anxious to eat the meat, but she also admitted in her heart that her throat was not feeling well. She took the water bag with both hands and drank it in big gulps. Then she returned the water bag and waited eagerly for Chu Wuzhi to bring the meat.

After she had tasted each flavor in turn, she commented:

“It’s just average, not fresh enough, and has a bit of a burnt smell.”

"So are you still going to eat?"

"food."
