You, a monster, still want to travel to the West?

"It would be nice if you hesitated a moment."

Qingxin couldn't help but sigh. Xia Zhiming agreed as a matter of course, and it seemed that he had no self-awareness at all. However, when she said she wanted to take Xia Zhiming with her to go into seclusion, she had no idea how to easily keep an eye on the White Snake.

While Qingxin was pondering, the little fox who had just left ran into the hall again, holding an invitation in his hand. He waved it and handed it to Qingxin, saying happily: "Sister Qingxin, here is the invitation to the Peach Banquet."

Qing Xin was surprised to hear this and took the invitation and took a look at it. After confirming that it was correct, she asked in confusion, "Where is the Yaochi Fairy who delivered the invitation?"

The little fox scratched his head and said, "The sister in green clothes doesn't want to come in."

Qingxin nodded, but was once again thrown off balance by this unexpected invitation.

After thinking for a long time, Qing Xin finally reached out and pulled the little fox closer, saying softly: "Huo Huo, I need to entrust you with two important tasks."

"Sister Qingxin, you say."

"I need to go into seclusion, so you have to attend the Peach Banquet on my behalf."

Hearing this, the little fox pointed at himself and said timidly, "Me?"

"You are my junior disciple. It is common practice for us in Fangcun Mountain to attend on behalf of our master. Don't be afraid."

After saying that, Qing Xin nodded at the white snake on his shoulder and said helplessly, "The second thing is, before I come out of seclusion, you need to keep an eye on him and try not to let him run around."

The little fox asked doubtfully, "Sister Qingxin, you're not going to take me into seclusion anymore?"

"If I go into seclusion, I won't be able to keep an eye on him."

"But how should I...look at it?"

"If he goes out, you go with him. As long as there are people around him, he will think a lot. Only when no one is around will he act recklessly."

The little fox heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this, puffing out his chest and saying seriously, "I'll keep an eye on Brother Zhiming and won't let him get into trouble!"

At this time, Qingxin thought for a moment, and finally pulled the little fox to sit beside her, and talked about Xia Zhiming's great achievements during her eight days of seclusion.

After leaving Xia Zhiming speechless and the little fox dumbfounded, Qing Xin finally nodded at Xia Zhiming's head and smiled at the little fox, saying, "Anyway, that's the story."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhiming couldn't help but lift his snake body and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm very lazy, Qingxin, you know that."

To be honest, Xia Zhiming felt that he was quite lazy and generally had no intention of causing trouble. He also couldn't understand why Qingxin was so wary of him.

However, at this time, Xia Zhiming looked at the little fox with a face full of disbelief, and Qingxin who leaned close to her ear and continued to give her instructions, and finally gave up quibbling.

Forget it, as long as he lies down peacefully this time, Qingxin will be relieved in the future.

Thinking of this, Xia Zhiming wagged his tail and let the two girls whisper.

Finally, Qing Xin fished out a giant clam from her sleeve, lifted Xia Zhiming up and stuffed it inside. She then handed it to the little fox in front of her and said seriously, "I'll call this treasure 'Changle Palace'. I'll leave it to you for now so you can take it with you when you travel and avoid criticism."

"Sister Qingxin, Changle Palace is the bedroom of the empress on earth, right?"

"That's what he is."

"?"

——————The next day——————

Xia Zhiming stood at the bedroom door, looking at Qingxin who was standing on tiptoe in front of him, straightening his clothes, and whispered teasingly: "Qingxin, you can actually lock me up."

"You know clearly that I can't bear to do it."

"It's okay, it's not like I can't stand it."

Qing Xin shook her head upon hearing this, blushing slightly as she spoke, "If that's the case, I'll definitely lock you up in the Red... Red Jade Palace. That way you'll probably be happier."

Xia Zhiming was surprised when he heard this: "Qingxin, have you thought about this?"

“That’s what I thought at first!”

With that, Qing Xin, blushing, pushed Xia Zhiming out of the bedroom. After the door slammed shut in front of Xia Zhiming, Qing Xin's final words of caution were heard: "Huo Huo left home alone and is so thoughtful. Remember not to be like before, only caring about your own happiness and ignoring other people's feelings."

Xia Zhiming took out his folding fan and knocked on the door, assuring him, "Don't worry, I'm here to protect your disciple."

"..."

In the room, Qingxin did not respond to his words.

Seeing this, Xia Zhiming confirmed that Qingxin was no longer talking, then he pulled a hair from her shoulder and placed it on the doorstep, then turned around and left, shaking his folding fan.

As for Qing Xin blaming him for only caring about his own happiness before, Xia Zhiming naturally knew what she meant -

Knowing that Heavenly King Zhangzhang and Taishang Laojun could not accept disciples, he still brought the little fox to ask about this matter. Fortunately, the Taoist ancestor gave him an elixir of immortality, otherwise Xia Zhiming would have to find a way to comfort them himself.

Chapter 156 You don’t have that kind of thing!!!

Morning class time——

Xia Zhiming took a sip of the milky-flavored tea from the Qingxin glass cup and leaned lazily back in his chair.

Below, the little fox who was reciting scriptures glanced at the lazy Xia Zhiming, thought for a moment, put down the scriptures in his hand, blinked his eyes and asked tentatively: "Brother Zhiming, aren't we going to the Peach Festival?"

Xia Zhiming covered the teacup, looked at the worried little fox on the table and said with a smile: "No hurry, wait until you finish your morning class."

When the little fox heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief and lowered her head to continue reading - she just needed to make sure Xia Zhiming hadn't forgotten, and there was no need for her to make the decision.

Time passed in the blink of an eye. When the little fox put down the book and looked up again, Xia Zhiming also walked down from his seat and said with a smile: "Come on, I'll take you to eat peaches."

When the little fox heard this, his eyes flickered for a moment and he timidly said, "Brother Zhiming, I ate something this morning."

"Huo Huo, I need to tell you something."

"Ok?"

"Qingxin usually treats the pills I gave you as candy beans."

"!!!"

Having said this, Xia Zhiming ignored the stunned little fox and turned around and walked out slowly.

Behind him, the little fox saw him going out alone, and no longer had time to be dazed. He quickly got up and followed him.

--------------

When Xia Zhiming handed in the invitations and led the little fox into the Yaochi, he saw many immortals sitting together in groups of three or four, chatting from time to time.

Xia Zhiming looked around and confirmed that he didn't see any familiar faces, so he went straight to their seats and sat down.

Glancing at the shivering little fox beside him, Xia Zhiming didn't think too much and casually picked up a plate of fairy fruit and handed it to her.

Beside him, the little fox saw his casual look, thought for a moment, and then picked up a fairy apricot to taste.

Xia Zhiming casually said, "Remember to save some space. The peaches are very big. When Qingxin was little, she would be full with just one."

"I understand. Thank you, Brother Zhiming."

"Oh, by the way, I have a question: Do vixen really like to eat chicken?"

"My dad and I both like it."

"It's OK."

Xia Zhiming was immediately delighted when he heard this. He was about to ask about other fox spirit legends when he saw Marshal Tianpeng sitting next to them with a triumphant look on his face. He bowed and said, "It's been a long time since we last met, my immortal friends."

"What's the good news, Marshal Tianpeng? Let me guess, is the fairy who sent you the invitation a different one?"

"My friend, can you see the past and the future?"

"No, it's just that the Red Fairy who used to send me invitations has been replaced by the Green Fairy. She didn't even come into my Spirit Official Mansion."

"Forehead……"

Marshal Tianpeng choked upon hearing this, thought for a moment, then rubbed his head and said, "Yesterday, the Red Fairy and I presented a generous gift, asking her to apologize to the Green Fairy on my behalf. I think I can return it next time."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhiming teased, "Qingyi?"

Marshal Tianpeng chuckled and said, "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, it's the Green Fairy."

Hearing this, Xia Zhiming looked at the handsome Marshal Tianpeng in front of him, thought for a moment, and then patted him on the shoulder and reminded him: "Marshal, I suggest you drink less today."

Marshal Tianpeng was immediately displeased upon hearing this and said hurriedly, "My immortal friend, you are mistaken. This is a rare opportunity to attend the Peach Festival, and to enjoy an endless supply of immortal wine and liquor. How can we possibly betray your majesty's kindness?"

"You... okay."

Upon hearing this, Xia Zhiming waved his hands speechlessly. No wonder this guy could play with the monkey. Their drinking habits were exactly the same.

Thinking of this, Xia Zhiming was too lazy to care about him anymore. He turned his head to look at the little fox, and made sure that she was no longer stage-frightened and was eating happily. Then he picked up all the lychees on the plate and put them in front of him, then peeled them leisurely and started eating.

Time passed minute by minute, and as all the saints gradually arrived, the Jade Emperor also led many court officials into the banquet. After all the immortals paid their respects together, the grand event of the Yaochi finally began.

When the Yaochi Fairy presented two purple peaches, Xia Zhiming took one for himself and stuffed the other into the little fox's mouth. Then he smiled and said, "Try it."

The little fox nodded and carefully took a bite of the peach in his hand. He felt warm all over and immediately narrowed his eyes happily and smiled brightly.

Beside him, Marshal Tianpeng glanced at the little fox, swallowed his saliva, and asked quietly: "Fellow Immortal, you...how can you raise a fox spirit?"

Xia Zhiming took a bite of the peach and said, "This is Huo Huo, my girl's apprentice, but I didn't raise her."

Marshal Tianpeng looked at the little fox, who was oblivious to the world outside and happily chewing on the peaches. He took a sip of wine and sighed softly, "That's great."

Xia Zhiming spread out his folding fan to shield the little fox's face and whispered, "Tianpeng, if you keep looking at her like that, I'm going to hit you."

"Ah! My rudeness! Please don't blame me, my friend!"

"Okay, look over there, here comes the fairy Chang'e."

"Where! Where! So beautiful..."

Xia Zhiming's face immediately turned black when he heard this. Looking at the graceful Chang'e Fairy and the handsome but pig-faced Marshal Tianpeng beside him, he could not help but sigh: "You are a hopeless pervert."

"What do you know? As the sage said: Food and sex are human nature!"

"To die beneath the peony flowers, even as a ghost would one be romantic?"

"I didn't expect that my immortal friend could come up with such a theory so easily. Could it be that he was once a playboy?"

"Get out of here! I'm a pure love party!"

……

Nothing unexpected happened at this year's Peach Festival. The delicacies were still delicious, and the fairy Chang'e's dance was still beautiful. Except that the Jade Emperor would occasionally glance at an empty seat, everything else went smoothly.

When the immortals gradually dispersed, Xia Zhiming looked at the little fox, who was holding his stomach and looked full. He tapped the little fox on the shoulder with his folding fan and said with a smile: "Let's go."

After saying that, Xia Zhiming and the little fox bowed to the Great Heavenly Venerable on the high platform. Finally, he glanced at Zhu Bajie who was drunk and his mouth was damp with sweat, then got up and left.

Outside Yaochi——

Xia Zhiming cheerfully pulled out a jade plate from his sleeve, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and held them out to her, saying happily, "Come on, Huo Huo, take them."

The little fox was a little confused, but he still reached out and took it obediently, and asked doubtfully: "Brother Zhiming, I'm full."

Xia Zhiming smiled and said, "It's okay, let's take a walk first, and I'll take you to Guanghan Palace later."

The little fox became alert upon hearing this and asked tentatively, "Brother Zhiming, what are you doing on the moon?"

"I just want to take you to see something fun."

"Brother Zhiming, can we not go? I'm so worried you'll get into trouble."

"Don't worry, I know my limits."

"But... Sister Qingxin said you don't have that kind of thing at all!"

"???"

Chapter 157 How Much Do You Look Down on Me?

Although the little fox tried to stop Xia Zhiming from causing trouble, he finally chose to give up.

After all, once Xia Zhiming started to play, even Qingxin couldn't stop him - Qingxin said this herself.

but--

The little fox held Changle Palace in front of his eyes, blinked at the super small Xia Zhiming who was leaning on the recliner drinking tea, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, revealing a shallow dimple.

Seeing her like this, Xia Zhiming cracked some melon seeds and teased, "Are you really that happy? Come to think of it, this seems like the first time I've seen you smile."

"I'm sorry... Brother Zhiming, I won't laugh anymore..."

"No, what are you afraid of? I won't bully you." The more Xia Zhiming talked to her, the more timid she became. After thinking about it, she stopped dwelling on the question and changed the subject: "So what are you laughing at?"

"I just suddenly felt that Sister Qingxin is really good at keeping an eye on you."

Xia Zhiming waved his hand lazily: "Qingxin's behavior is not called supervision. She just understands me too well. She knows that I can lie down and not stand..."
