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

Chu Wuji suddenly placed his hope on that good fortune and muttered:

"Is it possible that if I close my eyes and wander around, my good fortune will lead me back to the waterfall?"

After walking a few more miles, several sneaky white shadows hiding in the bushes attracted Chu Wuzhi's attention.

The little white animals lowered their heads to hide from strangers, but their big furry tails were exposed.

It turns out that "showing the fox's tail" is such a vivid phrase!

"I thought the little white tiger was lost again, but it turned out to be a white fox. Strange, did I go to the wrong place? I remember not seeing a single fox on the way out."

In just a short while, Chu Wuzhi had already caught sight of five or six foxes, indicating that this was their territory.

Maybe I really went in the wrong direction.

He crushed a few fruits and threw them into the bushes where the little foxes were, trying to ask them for directions.

But these little foxes were like frightened birds. They didn't dare to pick up the fruit pieces thrown by Chu Wuzhi and ran away.

"Not very smart. I guess I can't ask for directions. I can only shoot another bird and see if the smell of blood can attract the mountain dog."

He picked up a stone and was about to choose a lucky bird when he heard a few dogs barking.

This is a hostile, stressed bark!

Then came the sound of the wind blowing in the distant woods, rustling the branches and leaves.

"Could it be that big yellow dog that ran into something dirty? Don't die, or I'll have no place to ask for directions!"

Chu Wuji quickly put down the cart and didn't even bother to pay attention to the falling fruits and vegetables. He strode towards the sound of the barking dog!

Chapter 66: Rat Demon as Enemy

As we gradually enter the deep autumn in the mountains, no matter how strong the wind is, the falling leaves will make sounds with just a slight breeze, which is normal.

But the evil wind bent the trunks of the trees in the forest, which was unusual!

Amidst the angry barking of dogs, a man with a shrill voice laughed joyfully:

"It's a rare sight to see a wild dog of this quality in the mountains, with such intelligence in its eyes! I'll offer it to the city lord as a hunting dog. Perhaps I'll get a nice reward. What a pleasant surprise!"

This person was clearly laughing heartily, but it sounded very cunning, as if he was deliberately pinching his throat.

Chu Wuji walked closer quickly. His steps were big but his footsteps were very quiet, making no noise. His eyes were fixed on the front.

A tall and thin Taoist priest in brown clothes stood there, holding a flag in his hand and carrying a small box on his back. The dirt on his skin was clearly visible and he looked very sloppy.

Under his dirty Taoist robe, there was a long, thin thing hanging down. It looked like a rat's tail?!

And the mountain dog was hanging in the air playing "binding play".

Its body was tied up with ropes made of paper money, and it kept barking at the Taoist in brown clothes, but its momentum became weaker and weaker. It struggled with its limbs desperately, but to no avail.

Or is he a Taoist priest with magical powers?

Chu Wuji was struggling over whether to launch a sneak attack or not. The opponent didn't look like a serious person. If his sneak attack failed and he was exposed and couldn't beat the opponent, that would be a problem.

But I couldn't just watch the mountain dog being taken away.

"Master, could you please release that rhubarb?"

The sudden voice frightened the wild Taoist priest. He turned around cursing, and Chu Wuji finally saw the Taoist priest's face.

He has small eyes, a thin beard, a large black mole near his mouth, and very long hair on the mole. His whole face is pointed, a typical shifty face.

The Rat Taoist looked at Chu Wuzhi warily. He had a handsome appearance and was dressed rather noblely, like a child from a wealthy family.

After confirming that he had no cultivation aura and was emitting the scent of an ordinary mortal, the Rat Taoist felt a little relieved and said:

"Why are you walking so silently? Where did you come from in the middle of nowhere?"

Chu Wuji looked at the other person straight in the eyes with a friendly smile, but he noticed out of the corner of his eye that the other person's rat tail had shrunk!

He bowed in greeting and approached with a natural attitude, like a familiar boy who was unaware of the dangers of the world.

"My home is near Sanquanwei. The yellow dog that guards the mountain has been missing for a few days. I didn't expect the Taoist priest to meet it. It seems that the yellow dog must have conflicted with the Taoist priest and made him unhappy. I wonder if it is okay to let it go!

Oh, I almost forgot to ask the Taoist priest's name, what is his address?"

The Rat Taoist stroked his beard and said nothing about releasing the Mountain God Dog. Instead, he asked:

"I'm just an unknown mountain man, working for the Lord of Jieshi City. I'm tracking a group of foxes. The foxes are secondary. The key is the female demon who stole the foxes. She's simply challenging the Lord's authority!

"Little brother, do you have any idea?"

Chu Wuji was puzzled and asked in surprise:

"Master, what are you talking about? I've lived in this area for over ten years and have never heard of any female demons. Could it be that a female ghost has come here?!"

The Rat Taoist looked at Chu Wuzhi deeply, and the smile on his lips disappeared. He knew that the young man in front of him was lying.

He was wandering around the wilderness in the middle of the night and was not surprised at all when he saw a big yellow dog hanging by paper money. Now he claims that he has never heard of ghosts and monsters.

Who are you trying to fool?

"Old Taoist, I want to see where you come from, you are just pretending!"

The Rat Taoist suddenly attacked, his left hand turned into a bare rat claw, and grabbed towards Chu Wuzhi's crown.

Chu Wuji knew that his means were limited. Facing these opponents who possessed magic, if he could not defeat them with brute force, he would only be beaten miserably.

Facing the attack from the Rat Taoist, Chu Wuji took the initiative to meet him, and did not dare to make a superficial attempt. His first attack was all he had, and his punch was accompanied by a strong gust of wind!

"So he's a young warrior with some skills, who can rival the tempered physique of an old Taoist like me... Huh?!"

When the rat claws collided with the young man's fist, the Rat Taoist's entire left arm was smashed to pieces, with blood and flesh all over the place, and the bones and flesh connected.

The first thing the Rat Taoist felt was heat! A searing pain washed over him, and he didn't even feel the pain of his broken arm.

"How can the Qi and blood be so vigorous?!"

Before the Rat Taoist could recover from his shock, Chu Wuzhi had already pressed in front of him. His eyes were like an eagle, and the claws in his hands were heading straight for the Rat Taoist's throat.

This frightened the Rat Taoist so much that he revealed his true form. He turned into a little mouse, huddled into his clothes, and hid among the fallen leaves.

"Ran?"

Chu Wuji tried to catch the mouse's movements, but he was powerless. He could only go to the mountain god dog and tear off the paper money rope on its body.

After being freed, the mountain god dog remained hostile, barking wildly at Chu Wuji's back, then pounced forward and bit the Rat Taoist who had reappeared at some point.

"You idiot, I'm going to peel off your fur in a moment!"

The one-armed Rat Taoist picked up the banner, muttered some incantations, and finally shouted triumphantly:

"Three Ghost Banners, devoured the blood and energy of this man and dog!"

I saw the strange characters written on the flag twisting and changing, and every time it changed, something flew out.

Chu Wuji could feel something flying, but he couldn't catch it with his naked eyes. He knew something was wrong!

"This is what I'm most afraid of. How can I fight if I can't even see?"

He grabbed the mountain dog and ran away like a dog thief.

Suddenly, Chu Wuzhi saw a black shadow ghost from the eyes of the mountain god dog. It had actually caught up with him, and its speed was far beyond his walking speed!

"What do you mean, the big yellow dog can see it, but I can't?"

He could no longer dodge, and was knocked back by the ghost, as if he had been hit in the back by a battering ram.

Taoist Mouse was puzzled. He stared at Chu Wuji's robe and said, "I was mistaken. This robe can actually block spells. It's a good treasure!"

He was about to use the Three Ghost Banners to continue the pursuit when he suddenly found himself unable to move.

Not only the Rat Taoist, but also Chu Wuzhi and the Mountain God Dog were no exception. He wanted to get up and continue running, but he found that his hands and feet seemed to have lost control and he could not move.

Chu Wuzhi fell to the ground, feeling despair. He could not think of a way to escape. His body was his support, but now he could not move!

Suddenly, a pair of white and tender snow-white feet appeared in his sight. In the night, the pair of snow-white legs seemed to be glowing, and the delicate toenails were painted with bright red nail polish, which was enchanting and gorgeous.

Chu Wuji couldn't turn his neck and couldn't see the owner of the beautiful legs. He only saw several white fox tails swaying gently behind the woman after she walked past.

"I'm not going to settle the score with you, but you're harassing me first? You're not even willing to let these little foxes go."

The woman's voice was gentle and her tone was playful, but hatred gradually emerged towards the end.

Then, the Rat Taoist's pleas for mercy and screams were heard.

Chu Wuji really wanted to look up and see what was happening, but he could only roughly confirm the situation from the reflection in the mountain dog's eyes.

A ball of white mist was drawn out from above the Rat Taoist's head, suspected to be his soul.

The white mist is shaped like a mouse, with a tail longer than its body.

The mouse's soul turned into a ball of light and flew into the woman's hand. She squeezed it gently, and the soul shattered.

In front of this woman, the Rat Taoist didn't even have the strength to resist!

"..."

Chu Wuji witnessed the soul being torn apart for the first time!

If he could still move, Chu Wuji estimated that his expression would be stunned.

No, where exactly are my merits and fortune reflected?

Why are there only enemies that we can’t deal with?

Chapter 67: Who should pledge herself to me?

Just when Chu Wuji didn't know what to do, the invisible restraints on his body disappeared and he climbed up slightly confused.

The mountain god dog was able to move, but it did not dare to act rashly, fearing that it would also be pulled out of its soul by the two-legged upright fox.

Chu Wu Ji realized that the fox girl had no intention of targeting him. He did not dare to look at her appearance rashly, and immediately clasped his fists to express his gratitude.

"Thank you for saving my life, young lady. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I hope to repay you in my next life!"

No matter whether it helps or not, it's definitely better to be polite first. You can't beat her anyway.

The woman wanted to leave immediately, but was amused by Chu Wuji's words. She chuckled and asked:

"Why do you want to take revenge in the next life? It's so insincere."

"..."

It's just a polite remark, why are you making such a fuss about it...

Chu Wuji was worried that he might say something wrong, so he froze in his fist-clasping position, as if he had been hit by another spell and couldn't move.

After half a day of silence, the fox girl was still waiting near him, and she seemed not to leave until she heard an answer.

Chu Wuji had no choice but to bite the bullet and said:

"The young lady's skills are too great. My ability is limited. I didn't even see the Taoist's ghost magic just now. It's not as powerful as the eyes of this mountain dog. I'm afraid I can't repay the young lady in this life, so I will repay her in the next life."

The mountain god dog was quite intelligent and looked at the male biped in disbelief - it realized that Chu Wuji was praising it and wanted to use it as a shield.

How can you be so shameless?!

The mountain god dog wanted to bark at Chu Wuji twice, but was afraid of disturbing the fox girl's ears.

The fox girl teased again, "Young Master, do you mean... that you will be my slave in the next life?"

Chu Wuji wanted to nod, but he was afraid that this woman really had the ability to turn him into an ox or a horse in his next life, so he replied awkwardly:

"In my next life, I'd rather continue to be my mother's son. If that's not possible, then I'll just be your cow or horse..."

"I heard a long time ago that there are many stories about fox spirits among humans. It is said that if a fox girl sees a handsome young man who has benefactors, she will pledge herself to him. If the benefactor is not good-looking, she will repay him in the next life. I thought you would say you would pledge yourself to him~"

"Uh......"

Chu Wu Ji could tell that the fox girl was joking, but the roles were reversed and Chu Wu Ji was the one being rescued. He didn't know how to respond to this joke.

When the fox girl saw that Chu Wuji couldn't respond, she lost interest in teasing him.

"I'm leaving now. The little foxes stole your fruit. Consider this as payment."

Before she finished speaking, her figure disappeared.
