Chapter 30: Capturing the Fox (Part 2)
"What a clever and understanding little fox!" Xuan Kong's eyebrows rose slightly as he smiled.
He felt a few points of interest in this little fox, and the little fox raised its head to see Xuan Kong's eyes with a smile. I don't know where the courage came from, but it let out a "wu li li" cry and squeezed out a gap from the crowd, rubbing against Xuan Kong's feet.
The boss of the restaurant, accompanied by his men, took out a knife and slashed at Xu Kong's head without even looking, giving Wang Qi a fright. He hastily swung his sword to deflect the weapons of these greedy heroes, blocking Xu Kong's path and roaring:
"This is my senior fellow disciple, what do you want to do?"
"Hah, what are you?" A burly man with a thick arm stood in front of Wang Qi, holding an axe with a ghost head. Wang Qi glanced at Xuan Kong who was sitting at the table and said proudly: "We are from the Lao Mountain Sect!"
"Are you a disciple of the sect?" The good fellow's face changed color.
At this time, those who can establish their own sects are not easy to mess with. Moreover, this place is not far from Lao Mountain, and it's also rumored that the Lao Mountain Sect is a Xian family sect, which is not something these ordinary people can match.
The boss of the restaurant hurriedly held up his hand and stopped the staff in the store: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" He stared at these subordinates: "Don't hurry to go downstairs and take a look, the good meat can't be wasted."
The fox disappeared, and for some reason, the good guys below had already fought into a ball.
Watching the restaurant's staff pick up some clean corpses from the street and drag them back to the backyard, Wang Qi's face turned pale, looked at Xuan Kong pitifully and asked: "Big...big brother?" Xuan Kong's face also changed color, fortunately his cultivation had already reached the Bounded Valley realm, so he didn't order food to eat.
He nodded hard, affirming Wang Qi's idea.
The big meat in this store is not pork, mutton, beef or dog meat at all.
Wang Qi covered his mouth and rushed to the door, vomiting. He vomited until he was dizzy and blacked out, emptying everything in his stomach. "Damn it, this world!" Wang Qi's face twisted in pain, unable to believe that the world had become even more cruel than before he went up the mountain.
Hurriedly following behind his senior fellow disciple, he walked out of the restaurant.
Wang Qi didn't even have the energy to speak, and when Xiao Er asked for ten cents for a bowl of noodles from Xu Kong, he didn't even bother to question it.
As he walked, Wang Qi seemed to still hear the sound of his companions discussing him from behind, and felt a gaze fixed on him. He raised his head with difficulty, only to find that the small fox who had been saved by Xuan Kong's hand was actually staring at him with eyes flashing green light, sneaking a laugh.
Wang Qi's anger rose from his heart, and he grabbed the little fox's neck and lifted it up, saying viciously: "Well, even you dare to mock me."
Xuán Kōng didn't notice the little fox's pleading gaze, but instead looked at Wang Qi with a slightly playful expression as they messed around.
Wang Qi pinched the little fox's neck, lifted it in his hand and scolded it. The little fox was so angry that its eyes glowed brightly. Suddenly, it shrunk its body, becoming as thin as a pipe. Wang Qi was shocked and hastily tightened his fist, almost letting it escape.
The little fox saw that one plan was not working, so she came up with another. She looked at the southwest direction and took a deep breath, her belly suddenly bulging out like a drum. It was as thick as a bowl mouth and as hard as steel, making it impossible for Wang Qi to grab her body no matter how hard he tried.
She relaxed slightly and spat out the true energy in her belly, shrinking back to its original shape and jumping onto Xuangong's shoulder.
King Qi was so angry that he shouted loudly!
Xuan Kong smiled slightly, this little fox was quite clever, but he didn't know why the officials in the city had ordered it to be treated as a demon. Just as he was about to pull over the pedestrians on the side of the road to ask, he saw a Taoist priest standing out voluntarily on the side of the road.
The Taoist wore a mixed yuan scarf on his head, a apricot yellow Taoist robe on his body, and a stern face.
It's just one hand grasping the mysterious void, refusing to let go.
Xuan Kong's face revealed a smile, and he said: "You, this Taoist priest, why are you holding my hand without reason?" He looked at the long sword at the Taoist priest's waist, shining brightly, and thought that he must also be a high-ranking cultivator, but it was impolite to ask without a good reason.
The Taoist didn't respond, but merely nodded his head and refused to let go.
Wang Qiman's belly full of anger had not yet been vented, and he happened to run into this Taoist priest entangled with his senior brother. He said displeased: "You thieving Taoist, how rude! Can't you see that my senior brother doesn't have the Dragon Yang treasure?"
His words were venomous, and the eyes of Xu Kong and that Taoist met in mid-air, both feeling a wave of nausea.
The Taoist shuddered and dropped his hand, saying: "I see that you are also a fellow of my Taoist school. Don't you know the evil consequences of raising demons and serving ghosts?" He only saw the little fox sticking to Xu Kong, thinking it was a demon raised by Xu Kong's family, but he didn't see what happened in the restaurant earlier.
"Wooo..." The little fox looked very frightened by the Taoist, its body curled up into a ball on Xu Kong's shoulder.
Fluffy and warm, this fur coat is a great treasure for winter.
Xuán Kōng was walking in a trance, the Taoist saw him deep in thought and not speaking, somewhat angrily said: "Humans and demons are on different paths, young friend has a bright future ahead, but don't let this demon bewitch your heart!" The little fox bared its teeth, looking into the eyes of the Taoist, a hint of green light flashed through, but it was afraid of the long sword at the Taoist's waist and didn't dare make a sound.
Xuan Kong smiled and said, "Brother Dao is right, but this little fox has no evil aura and doesn't want to harm anyone's life. I'm just short of a pet to play with on ordinary days, so it's not a problem even if I take it in." The Taoist priest was also hot-tempered and sneered, "Looking at your Taoist attire, I don't know which immortal sect taught you such a disciple who can tolerate both good and evil!"
Seeing the Taoist's straightforward words, Xuan Kong's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: "Could it be that this fox spirit has indeed committed a great offense? If so, I would really be in an awkward position." As the eldest brother of the Ling Shan Sect, his actions outside were not as carefree as those of his younger brothers.
Wang Qi angrily said: "We are disciples of the Lao Mountain Sect, what do you have to say?"
The Taoist's face was full of disdain and contempt: "My sect is a renowned school, but it can't produce disciples like you two who coddle evil demons."
Upon hearing the Taoist humiliating his sect, Xu Kong's temper, no matter how good, couldn't tolerate it. He cupped his hands and coldly smiled, saying: "I haven't had the pleasure of asking for your instructions yet..." The Taoist smiled and stroked his beard, saying: "Very well, I am He Hui Zhenren, one of the twelve true rulers under the ancestors of the Jingming Tao, Xu Xun Zu Shi!"
Xuan Kong listened to him introduce himself and sneered: "Who crowned you as the true lord?"
In Taoism, Zhen Jun is also known as Zhen Cai. As a title for a true immortal, it's already a very high honorific name. For example, the Three Mao True Lords of Maoshan, the Second Lang Xian Sheng True Lord of Ganjiangkou, and the Xuantan True Lord of Tiangong, etc., this Shen Hui Zhen Ren is just a loose immortal cultivator who hasn't even entered the ranks of Daluo, yet he dares to call himself True Lord - isn't it laughable?
He is the master of Xu Xun, who is indeed a big shot, the ancestor of the Qingming Dao, and the Dharma Master revered by the Lushan Sect. In the mortal world, he is also called Xu Jiulang, Xu Jingyang, Jingyang Zushi, Gantian Dadi, also known as Xu Tian Shi, Pu Tian Fu Zhu, Fu Zhu Pusa, and Shen Gong Miao Ji Zhen Jun, one of the Four Great Heavenly Masters.
