The system always wants to send me to the heroine

"Sacrifices, all sacrifices..."

"The final sacrifice is me..."

What exactly did the rat demon mean by its mutterings? If the Inari god was no longer there, who was it offering sacrifices to?

Yes, no wonder it was willing to surrender. It would make sense if the other party was not the Inari God, whose true form was a fox.

However, there are clearly relics of shrine maidens’ sacrifices in the village. What is the relationship between this new unknown god and the Inari god?

Lian'er and Wanxiang stayed in this shrine temporarily.

For Wanxiang, the goal she had been searching for for a year was right in front of her, so why should she look elsewhere?

Since Wanxiang doesn't leave, Lian'er naturally doesn't want to leave either.

The shrine was large, more than enough to accommodate the two of them.

More importantly, the room fee she paid was very generous, which Yan Luoqing, who was always frugal, could not refuse.

Who made me add another mouth to feed at home?

Although the little fox is obedient, he is greedy and loves to play, so he always spends money.

In just a few days, Yan Luoqing increasingly realized that this white-haired woman was not simple.

Although the people in the village did not know Wanxiang that day, she seemed to be quite famous among merchants, officials and other wealthy people. In just a few days, several people came to her to seek Wanxiang's divination.

Men mostly ask about their careers or business fortunes, while women like to ask about their love fortunes.

Each time the price was very high, even far more than what Yan Luoqing earned from exorcising demons.

This is also unavoidable. Wanxiang earns money from rich people, while Yan Luoqing mostly serves the common people.

If Lian'er was a little skeptical before, she is now completely convinced.

Our own sister Wanxiang is truly a folk master.

In her spare time, Yan Luoqing needed to practice swordplay and meditate, and Wanxiang also needed to study and meditate. Lian'er and I, who had nothing to do, naturally hit it off, a fox and I, and became a pair of fox friends, going to the city to play together.

Originally, the witch sister was very worried about me and only let me play in the mountains, but now that Miss Lian'er was accompanying me, she allowed me to go down the mountain.

I finally got to eat lotus cakes, red bean cakes, candy men and other snacks. Although they are not as tasty as modern snacks such as potato chips, they are still very good.

There are actually quite a lot of fun places in Jiangfeng City, but what satisfies me the most, of course, is the brothels.

Don't get me wrong, what I'm referring to here is of course a serious business, with young ladies dancing and singing. After all, I can only go there during the day.

I don’t know whether there will be other business at night, and it’s not something a little fox like me should know.

Humph, in the ancient society where people dressed tightly, this was already the most unrestrained place. At least you could see the long legs of young ladies from time to time.

Well, just like modern people like to watch short videos of young ladies dancing!

It’s a pity that I can’t stay there for too long each time. It would be bad if Lian’er knew about it.

Hey, a little girl naturally can’t enter a place like this with fireworks, so I was the one who sneaked in!

The ancient people were too conservative. There is nothing wrong with watching a young lady twisting her butt, right? And you can't label me a lecherous fox for that, right?

Actually, I found that most of the people in brothels are gigolos. Those students who think they are well-educated love to go to such places. They usually dress well and are very serious, but now they are all drooling secretly.

Listening to music in a brothel only cost a few cents each time. Students could afford it, but the rich looked down on it and the tenants were reluctant to spend it.

After all, they were just listening to the music, they just thought it was very elegant.

Of course, the fox is free!

Lian'er also needs her own private time. Later I found out that those strange picture albums were actually made by her. Every time she sneaked into the city, she would exchange them for small coins, and then we could have a good snack.

She looks like a good girl, but you can't judge a person by his appearance.

Well, she naturally didn’t want me to know the process of the transaction, so I had no choice but to go to the brothel to listen to music and wait for her.

Hey, how do I know all this? I only followed someone secretly once.

Foxes are curious too!

I had only seen one picture album in her house before, but recently there have been more and more of them, and some even had strange ways of playing that I had never seen before.

I always feel that anyone who can draw something like this must have experienced it personally, right?

Hehehe, no wonder, no wonder, she has been full of creative ideas recently, and this also gave me some opportunities to sneak in.

But Lian'er and I are good friends, so of course I wouldn't betray her, right?

She didn't tell these secrets to me, a fox, and she wouldn't dare tell them to others either.

There were also clothing stores and jewelry stores, and under Lian'er's guidance, I visited them all.

I heard that Long Aotian gave a gift to my elder sister, so of course I want to give a gift to my elder sister too.

Gosh, I just can't afford it.

Lian'er couldn't afford it either. Every time she went in, the snobbish shop assistants ignored her and didn't think she could afford it at all.

Hmm, really, the guy in her family is obviously super rich, even richer than the witch sister.

But Wanxiang's business believed in the cycle of cause and effect, and sins would be punished. Most of the money she earned was given away to help the poor.

Therefore, Lian'er had to suffer, although she didn't care at all. Instead, she strongly supported her sister's approach.

Bah, she is not miserable at all. She has a party every night. How can she be miserable?

I am the only one who is pitiful, and I am a fox.

Well, of course, now I have the right to climb into the witch sister's bed and sleep.

The witch sister has a very good sleeping posture. She won’t suddenly grab me into her arms in the middle of the night.

Even if I sleep on her lap, it's totally fine!

Wow, I really don’t know whether I should be happy or sad.

Chapter 21: Three-tailed Fox Demon

The leisurely life did not last for a few days, and soon, new commissions came in.

A young man from a nearby village found the shrine and begged the witch to come down the mountain to exorcise the demon.

According to him, an evil fox demon came to the village injured and was rescued by his sweetheart. However, the fox demon repaid his sweetheart with evil and bewitched her mind, causing her to fall in love with him.

He asked the witch to help him eliminate the monster and win back his sweetheart.

"There is an evil fox demon. I want to go and see it!"

I had already laid on the shoulders of the witch sister and spoke excitedly.

I have never seen a fox demon of the same kind.

The witch sister didn't look at me, but nodded slightly, agreeing to take me with her.

Although this young man looks ordinary, he looks like an honest and simple Zhuang family member and does not seem to be lying.

"Since it is said to be an evil monster, has it killed anyone, or has anyone in the village gone missing?"

The witch sister asked softly.

"This, this seems not to be the case, but, but the fox demon used despicable means to abduct my Xiang'er, causing her to often run to the back mountain and ignore me. She must have gone to visit the fox demon!"

The young man's words were sincere and heartfelt, but the witch sister began to think about it for a moment.

What? Even I can figure this out. Since it didn't kill any human, this fox must have no intention of harming anyone. So how can it be evil? You see, I'm just such a harmless fox, right?

As for the statement that he seduced his sweetheart, that's even more strange. From his words, the other party didn't capture the person or restrict the person's freedom. He only went to the back mountain once or twice a day. It seems that he was really seduced by magic.

Hehehe, this young man's face turned red with anxiety, but he doesn't look like he is lying. I guess he has no self-awareness at all.

After all, isn't it normal that the girl you like doesn't like you?

"Well, I've accepted this commission. You go back first. I'll go investigate once I'm fully prepared."

Hearing that the witch agreed to help, the young man was overjoyed. He had already been to the yamen and was kicked out on the spot. He didn't expect to get help from the witch.

He thanked him repeatedly in a hurry and left.

But I am a little confused. What's the point of accepting this kind of commission?

"After all, it's a monster incident, so it's good to go and take a look. Besides, don't you want to meet the same kind, Little Litchi?"

Seeing me tilting my head in confusion, the witch sister smiled and reached out to rub me twice.

It was just a small incident and didn't delay too much. After sending the young man away, the witch sister took the magic sword and took me out.

The village is not far from Jiangfeng County. There is no need to ride a horse. It takes less than half an hour to walk into the village.

Just as the young man said, it was a peaceful little village with no signs of monster invasion.

According to the young man, the monster should be living in the mountain behind the village at this time.

Knowing the location, it was not difficult to find it. The witch sister just released the Psylocke and took me up the mountain leisurely.

My mood this time was completely different from the previous time when I was looking for the Village in the Mist. There was no tense alert, no hurry to get there. It was more like I was on a picnic, feeling the birdsong and flowers in the mountains as I moved slowly forward.

The air here is really good. Even a fox like me couldn't help but run for a while. During this time, I also saw two squirrels looking at us curiously from afar. If I hadn't been busy, I would have almost couldn't help wanting to catch them and give them a good meal.

I can't be the one being touched all the time, I want to touch other furry things too.

Oh, no, no, have I been running around on the mountain near the shrine recently? How can I be so childish? I am obviously a mature adult.

Thinking of the mission I was responsible for, I finally chose to lie obediently on the big sister's shoulders.

Psylocke quickly found her target, which was in a dilapidated temple in the mountains.

From a distance, I saw a man and a woman sitting side by side at a table, and in front of them was a seven-stringed ancient Yaoqin.

The man had an elegant and handsome face, but upon closer inspection, he was different from ordinary people. He had a pair of fox ears and three fox tails.

"Wow, yes, it's a three-tailed fox. No wonder it can transform."

I looked at each other, feeling so envious.

The level of a fox demon's power is said to be determined by the number of tails it has, from one to nine, with the more tails the stronger it is.

But I myself am so pitiful, with only a big fluffy tail.

I pursed my lips, hugged my tail and sighed to myself.

After finding the person, the witch sister was no longer in a hurry. She signaled me to be quiet, and she also lowered her body to observe secretly.

The man and woman were chatting and laughing in a relaxed manner. The fox demon was playing the lyre in front of her, as if she was talking to the girl or teaching her the skill of playing the lyre.

The sound of the lyre was peaceful and neutral, without a trace of evil or blasphemy, and it was even more moving as it echoed among the mountains.

I also feel more and more that there is indeed no so-called bewitchment or witchcraft between these two people.

I really feel sorry for that young man, but there's nothing he can do, he's just a farmer, and he's certainly not as good at pleasing girls as the fox demon.

Hey, maybe I can also learn the guqin from this fellow, then when the time comes, it will be great to use it to conquer the big sister priestess, right?

I was just thinking about it when the elder sister stood up, drew her magic sword, and slowly walked towards the two of them.

"Wow, Sister Miko, what are you doing?!"

I was so frightened that I couldn't even hold my tail.

"Hush little one, let me try them both out."

The witch sister moved her lips slightly and spoke in a low voice.

Knowing that the elder shrine maiden had no intention of killing me, I finally felt relieved and obediently lay on her shoulder and watched.

The two were so engrossed in the sound of the piano that they did not realize until Yan Luoqing reached the entrance of the dilapidated temple that the music suddenly stopped.

Yan Luoqing's action was intended to test whether the monster had the intention to hurt people, what his magic power was, and what the relationship between the two was.

What surprised us was that when the three-tailed fox saw Yan Luoqing coming with a sword, instead of resisting, its legs went limp and it sat down on the ground with a thud, its whole body shaking like a sieve, as if it had been scared out of its soul.

The elegant appearance of the humble gentleman just now collapsed in an instant.

Instead, the girl opened her arms and resolutely stood in front of him.

"Mister Miko, Mr. Fox has never done anything evil in his life. Please spare his life!"

The three-tailed fox lay on the ground, tugged at the woman's trouser leg with his hand, and spoke in a trembling voice.

"Xiangxiang, you, you go away, no, don't bother me..."

Yan Luoqing, who hadn't said anything yet, felt extremely speechless.
