"I can just build a room on the side of the road at night, and I guarantee no one will disturb you."
At this point, Xia Zhiming spat out his snake tongue: "Well... except me."
The little fox's practice has indeed improved a lot recently. When he listened to her reading today, he also heard some indescribable charm.
Although the noise was much quieter than when Qingxin was studying, the gap in their realms was obvious.
If one could rely solely on studying and practicing to the point where all the beasts would worship him, then this kind of deity would no longer be the turn of the Qingxin Sect. It would definitely be the God of Literature who had descended to the mortal world again. There was no other possibility.
After hearing what Xia Zhiming said, Xiaoqing thought about it and felt that it was true. Besides, it was not good to let her own snake stay in this Pansi Cave, so she decided to leave.
When the girls were tired from playing and went back to the cave to rest, Xiao Qingxin made it clear that she wanted to leave. The seven sisters tried to persuade her to stay but to no avail. Finally, they forced her to stay for lunch and let Xia Zhiming taste Bai Wei's cooking. Then the two of them and the snake went back to the path and said goodbye.
The Bai sisters watched him from afar until he could no longer be seen. Suddenly, Bai Ling said softly, "I thought Uncle-Master would ask about that unfaithful man..."
Bai Wei: "Sister, don't take your anger out on Junior Master-Uncle. It's all our fault for not knowing how to judge people."
Bai Zhi scolded him lightly, "What a misjudgment of people! Parents' orders, matchmaker's words, the three documents missing only the wedding letter, the six ceremonies missing only the wedding ceremony. Master traveled thousands of miles to come here, and he turned around and became a Buddhist!"
Bai Kou's eyes were dim: "Second sister, if you have a grudge, don't mention my affairs. It's better than deliberately seeking revenge and getting yourself involved."
"What do you mean by sacrificing yourself? If I couldn't remove this red thread of marriage, how could I have kept it until now?"
"You're so stubborn, why don't you go to Master for help?"
"That's...that's...I was just venting my anger for you!"
When the two sisters were arguing, Bai Su saw that they were getting anxious again when they talked about this matter, so he quickly changed the subject and said with a smile:
"Don't bring up those past events. Have you heard? Recently, a bald donkey from the East is trying to go to the West to seek scriptures. It's causing quite a stir. I'm betting it's that Golden Cicada again this time. Why don't we capture him? We'll skin him alive, tear his bones, and suck his marrow dry. We'll never let him off!"
Bai Zhi's eyes were dim: "..."
Bai Kou's eyes were dim: "..."
Bai Su was under great pressure: "What's wrong? Can you guys just say something?"
"OK!!!" x2

————————————————————————
At the same time, on the other side——
It was afternoon and the sun was at its hottest.
In a mountain forest hundreds of miles away, Qingxin was leading the little fox and walking under the shade of the green trees, avoiding the scorching sun. As for the white snake, it was naturally leaning on the girl's neck to avoid the heat.
The two little girls had not been walking for long when the little fox suddenly stopped and grabbed Qingxin. At the same time, the sounds of eagles and dogs barking were heard in the forest, accompanied by the rustling of bushes and leaves. The sounds became more and more rapid and sharp as they got closer, which was a bit scary in this deserted mountain forest.
Not long after, a white deer appeared in the bushes in the distance and fell in front of the two little girls. Its limbs were spread out on the ground and it kept struggling, as if it was still trying to escape. Unfortunately, there was a sharp arrow deeply stuck in its buttocks, and blood was oozing from the wound. It was obvious that it was seriously injured.
Seeing this, Qingxin tilted her head and was about to squat down to check, but she saw the sharp fox ears and tail suddenly sticking out, and the shiny green hair exploded, pulling Qingxin into her arms.
The next moment——
Swoosh! —The sound of an arrow breaking through the wind.
Puff! —The sound of a sharp arrow piercing flesh.
Yo~! —The mournful cry of a white deer!
At the same time, Xia Zhiming glanced at the direction the arrow had shot from, then retracted his gaze and looked up at the little fox's fair and tender face, teasing: "Little fox, how long are you going to hold my Qingxin? Why don't you let go?"
"Brother Zhiming, I am protecting Master." The little fox said seriously!
"Qingxin has his own magical powers, and no sharp weapon can hurt him in the slightest. Tell me what your intentions are, or you might as well confess them!"
"Woo~" the little fox said aggrievedly~
"How about this, let me touch your tail and I'll forgive you."
"Zhiming...your map of Yan State is too short."
“Hiss, it hurts! It hurts! It hurts!”
……
Chapter 254: Birds of a feather flock together.
While the two men and the snake were chatting, a group of hunting dogs suddenly jumped out from the forest in the sky, surrounded the two men, the snake and the white deer on the ground, squatting with their heads lowered, whimpering and not daring to move forward.
At the moment of "danger", another group of people came forward quickly in the forest. Leading them was a young man wearing a crown, dressed in brocade clothes, with a black cang on his shoulders, a gorgeous pendant on his waist, and a strong bow in his hand. Behind him followed several guards, all of whom were wearing armor and carrying swords. They were strong and vigorous. It was obvious at a glance that they were children of officials who came out to hunt.
Seeing the little fox's ears and tail, one of the guards immediately drew his sword and blocked the young master's way, shouting, "Protect the king! Protect the king! There's a monster! It's a fox spirit!"
As soon as the words came out, the scene suddenly became chaotic, and even the young man in gorgeous clothes was startled. He quickly stepped back, protecting everyone in front of him, and secretly looked at the legendary vixen.
Unfortunately, the two girls' deceptions were not in vain, so the young man looked at them for a long time but couldn't figure out what they were doing. He thought to himself that books cannot be trusted completely, and the vixen who brought disaster to the country and the people is nothing more than that.
Seeing these people making such a scene, the little fox felt very aggrieved, with its ears drooping and its tail tucked between its legs. Xia Zhiming was not surprised at all and consoled it, saying, "You'll get used to it. You see, I just don't bother to bother with them."
The little fox nodded obediently after the words were spoken, but the guards on the opposite side were terrified and retreated repeatedly to protect the young master, while whispering: "Your Highness, please leave quickly. This place is dangerous. The white snake is also a monster. I think these three living ones are also monsters."
The young man saw the legendary monster for the first time and asked as he retreated, "What kind of monster do you think that little kid is?"
The guard, embarrassed, made up a lie: "As the ancients said, 'Snakes and rats come from the same nest, birds of a feather.' This long-tailed demon is beautiful, but lacks a certain feminine air. I think it's a raccoon dog demon, and that little kid might be a rat spirit."
"That's right. The ancients were not deceiving me."
Across from the crowd, Qingxin's face darkened when he heard them call him a rat. He pointed at them, turned around and snorted, "Zhiming, bite him!"
"Please spare me, the sweat smell is a bit strong and I can't eat it."
Xia Zhiming spat out his snake tongue, and with a thought, a stream of wine flew out from his Qingxin sleeve and landed on the injured white deer in front of him. In just a few breaths, he healed the injured white deer. Then, ignoring the stunned crowd, he bowed to the white deer and said with a smile: "Come, go and help my little cutie get revenge."
After he finished speaking, the white deer perked up, got up, and rushed straight towards the crowd in a daze.
The guard in the crowd drew his sword to meet the attack, but the white deer seemed to have divine help, and its flesh and blood body turned into refined gold on the spot, hitting the guard so hard that the blade of his sword broke, his palm went numb, and he was knocked back.
Seeing this scene, all the guards were horrified and fled in all directions, throwing away their weapons and armor. In a panic, someone pushed the young man to the ground and ran away without a trace.
The white deer was also quite clever, and did not chase after the beasts randomly at this time. It just knocked away all the hunting dogs and hawks that were protecting their master, and then knocked the young man who had just gotten up to the ground before stopping. It then went into the forest in a proud and vigorous manner and soon disappeared.
Seeing that Sheshe had avenged him, Xiao Qingxin was satisfied. He took the little fox forward and checked the condition of the injured.
The young man was fine, he just lay on the ground with his butt sticking up pretending to be dead. On the contrary, the guard who drew his sword looked like he was breathing more than breathing, and was about to die.
He only intended to teach him a lesson, and Xiao Qingxin had no intention of harming anyone. He took out a wine gourd from his sleeve, and directed a stream of clear water to heal his wounds, and in just a few breaths, he brought the man back from the brink of death.
On the other side, the young man saw her treating the wounds of his guards. He rolled his eyes, knowing that she meant no harm, and stopped pretending to be dead. He patted his buttocks, stood up, stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Thank you for sparing my life, Immortal. I am Zhu Youjian, the Crown Prince of Zhuzi Kingdom. I was on a hunting tour in this forest and accidentally bumped into you three. I hope you will forgive me."
Xiao Qingxin put away the wine gourd. After hearing him announce his name, she frowned and said disdainfully, "How can you, a crown prince of a country, be like this villain: gossiping about others behind their backs and spreading rumors?"
"This... it's human nature to be gossipy..."
Zhu Youjian was embarrassed, realizing that his conversation with the guards had been overheard. He quickly changed the subject and asked, "May I know the names of the three immortals and where they reside?"
Little Qingxin put her hands on her hips and said, "I am King Qingxin of Kutuo Mountain in the Lion Camel Kingdom!"
Xia Zhiming poked his head out and said happily, "I am King Zhiming of Kutuo Mountain in the Lion Camel Kingdom!"
The little fox mustered up his courage and said, "I am the Jade-faced Fox from Moyun Cave in Jilei Mountain!"
Zhu Youjian's eyes turned strange upon hearing this. He realized that these three men were demonic beings who had taken over the mountain and were kings. He couldn't help but feel like retreating. He bowed and smiled, saying, "I apologize for any offense today. When I return to the palace another day to review the files, I will definitely send an envoy to bring a gift of apology to the kings."
What he meant was simply to test whether he could leave.
Qing Xin waved her hand and said, "Where is the capital of Zhu Zi Nation? Please tell me the direction."
"This...this..." Zhu Youjian stammered.
"Huh?" Xiao Qingxinlu glared!
Zhu Youjian smiled bitterly, raised his hand and pointed eastward: "Eight hundred miles from here... it is the capital of our dynasty."
After he finished speaking, he saw the two people and the snake in front of him rise up on the wind, and inadvertently flew into the sky on a cloud and flew away.
When he could no longer see anyone, Zhu Youjian felt remorseful. He looked around and found his guard who had just gotten up. He hurriedly asked, "Whose family are you from? What's your name? Tell me quickly!"
"Your Highness! My father is the Minister of Public Security, and his real name is Ma Chao!"
"You have done a great job protecting the emperor today. Please escort me back to the palace and return to the capital today!"
"Yes!!!"
……
Chapter 255 I didn’t peek!
the other side--
Coming out of the unknown forest, the two men and the snake rode the clouds and mist all the way, and soon they arrived at the capital of Zhuzi Country. Stopping the cloud and looking down, they saw—
The cloud-like towers are tall and the houses are lined up in rows.
The running water flows and the high mountains face each other.
There are abundant carriages and goods.
Business is booming in the three streets and six markets.
It is indeed: the imperial capital, the great capital of heaven.
After looking enough, Qingxin found an empty alley in the city to land in order to save trouble. After looking around and making sure there was no one around, he prepared to find a place to rest temporarily.
Xia Zhiming suddenly sensed something on the girl's shoulder. He pointed his tail at the girl jumping up and down on the road outside the alley and said with a smile: "Look, isn't that Yang Chan over there?"
As soon as the words fell, the two little lolis looked in the direction of the voice, and sure enough, they saw Yang Chan wearing a pure white flowing fairy dress, holding a rattle in her hand and looking left and right. Her innocent and pure appearance made countless men and women dazed.
At the same time, Yang Chan heard someone calling her name. She looked around and quickly spotted the two people and the snake in the alley. Her eyes immediately lit up. She quickly stepped forward and blocked the two little girls at the entrance of the alley. She rubbed her hands and laughed strangely, saying, "You two little sisters are really delightful. Do you want to go home and play with your big sister?"
The little fox bowed obediently: "Greetings to the Three Holy Mothers."
Yang Chan pinched her little face: "Call me Sister Chan'er~"
"Don't bully my little fox." Xia Zhiming greeted him, wagging his tail. Then he said with a smile, "Where did you learn those gangster ways? I think you've really learned some of the essence of them."
Xiao Qingxin nodded in agreement: "He's exactly like the local villain in the storybook."
"You'll come across it from time to time. You'll learn it naturally if you see it enough."
Xiao Qingxin tilted her head: "Why haven't we met before?"
Xia Zhiming nuzzled the girl's face and teased, "Your little baby looks are likely to attract any hooligans. You'll probably attract some naughty kids."
The little fox glanced at the ignorant white snake and interrupted, "Brother Zhiming, isn't it because you are here..."
"Yes, yes."
Yang Chan nodded repeatedly, took out a silver thread, and transformed it into a white snake of the same style from her palm. She said with a smug look on her face, "I've tried this before when someone blocked my way. I just learned how to swing the snake over my shoulder like you do, and they'd definitely run as far away as they could. It's even more effective than magic."
Xiao Qingxin: "???"
"Ding~!" - A light bulb lit up above the little fox's head, and he turned around and looked at the white snake with anticipation.
Xia Zhiming handed the little fox a strand of hair with a bit of amusement, cast a spell on it that could change as she wished, and said teasingly: "No shivering~"
The little fox blushed and nodded obediently.
Beside her, Yang Chan rolled her eyes, leaned over to the little fox's ear, and whispered in a low voice, "Sister, be careful. There's a wisp of divine consciousness in this hair, and you can't grasp it. How about Sister Chan'er keep it for you?"
"...?"
The little fox hesitated to speak, tilted his head and looked at Yang Chan with a strange look in his eyes - why is your map of Yan State shorter than a snake?
Back to the topic, with Yang Chan present, Qing Xin and Little Fox, the two taciturn ones, became much more lively. After a brief chat, seeing that it was still early, everyone decided not to stand there stupidly, but instead followed Yang Chan to stroll around the city.
"Speaking of which, why is my sister here?"
"I'm currently staying at Qijue Mountain, only a few hundred miles away from here. I've had some free time recently, and I heard the local land god talk about this place, so I took the time to come and take a look."
"Is my sister busy on weekdays?"
"Hmm~ I'm busy with all sorts of things!"
"Sister Chan'er is so amazing..."
The two little girls suddenly had stars in their eyes and looked at Yang Chan with admiration, feeling extremely proud of the girl.
Seeing that his daughter was about to be fooled, Xia Zhiming couldn't help but complain: "Don't believe her lies, she spends her days writing and painting or visiting friends. Apart from removing the miasma from Qijue Mountain, I haven't seen her do any serious work."
Xiao Qingxin tilted her head: "Zhiming, how did you know?"
