Nightwatcher

"ah?"

The little fox tilted his head and looked at Xu Qi'an blankly with his black button eyes.

A few seconds later, it happily said: "How do you know that my baby name is Xiaocutie? That's what all my sisters call me."

That's not the point! ! Xu Qi'an sternly criticized in his heart, smiling kindly:

"So, is there a way to contact her?"

The little white fox nodded, then shook his head, his dark eyes showed vigilance, and said:

"The empress's whereabouts are kept confidential. Without permission, I can't take the initiative to contact her..."

Empress? Princess? Who are they talking about? Li Lingsu who was listening was stunned for a moment.

Although he knew that the Heavenly Mirror was a relic of the Lord of the Ten Thousand Monsters, he didn't know that Bai Ji was a member of the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox, let alone Xu Qi'an's plan.

Xu Qi'an looked sideways at Li Lingsu and Miao Youfang, and frowned:

"What are you doing in a daze, do you ignore the arrangement of your tasks? Hurry up and go to work, I don't raise waste here."

Miao Youfang walked away with a knife in his hand.

The death of the witch, the mother and the son deserves nothing, and those subordinates who help the evildoers are also doing the same thing of oppressing the people.

If they thought that by escaping from the Temple of the City God, they would be able to write off all the bad things they did in the past, that would be too good to be true.

Li Lingsu's task was to see a doctor for the middle-aged man's mother-in-law, so as to avoid dying of terminal illness.

Xu Qian, no, Xu Qi'an, since he confessed his identity, he stopped pretending. Occasionally, I still miss that senior Xu, at least he won't swear like Xu Qi'an.

Xu Qian has a more senior demeanor

While slandering Xu Qi'an, Li Lingsu misses Xu Qian.

Xu Qi'an closed the temple door, carried the little white fox from Mu Nanzhi's arms, held it high, and showed a gentle and sunny smile:

"Help contact Nine-Tailed Sky Fox, I'll buy you delicious food, a lot of delicious food."

Bai Ji was unmoved by the temptation of whoring for nothing, and said serious words in a soft and childish voice:

"No, rules are rules."

If it was Xu Lingyin, the whole family would be sold right now. Sure enough, human cubs and fox cubs are incomparable Xu Qian said again:

"Do you know the Heavenly Mirror?"

The little white fox answered honestly, "I don't know."

It is a cub of the new generation of the fox family. What happened five hundred years ago is too far away for her. She only knows the general history from word of mouth, and cannot accurately identify a magic weapon that has disappeared for hundreds of years.

Xu Qi'an told about the Heavenly Mirror.

"So, it's very important that you contact her."

Xu Qi'an took on the posture of an adult, assuming that this is a serious matter.

Generally speaking, when children see this posture, they will hesitate and feel lost, because they don't have the habit and awareness of making decisions.

Of course, this trick is definitely useless to Xu Lingyin, she will listen to you seriously, and then ignore you.

But Bai Ji has a delicate personality, loves to cry, has a soft temper, and is expensive, just like a little girl from a rich family, like a little adult, sensible.

"Okay, okay."

It tilted its head and thought for a long time, then responded softly.

Because what Xu Yinluo said was so solemn, and it was a relic of the country's lord back then, in Bai Ji's view, it was indeed a big deal.

Maybe the empress needs it very much, so I can't do bad things.

It immediately kicked its hind legs, signaling Xu Qi'an to put himself down.

Xu Baihou did as he did, and Bai Ji ran to the overturned sculpture with her furry foxtail curled up, glanced at the high base, and looked back:

"Help me put it on."

"Can't you dance yourself?" Xu Qi'an asked back.

The little white fox's beautiful eyes seemed to be a little moist, and he said aggrievedly:

"I can't jump up.

"When the empress comes, there will be a meeting. I have to go there."

Xu Qi'an picked it up and placed it on the base where the statue of the temple god stood.

The little white fox curled up, closed its tail, and closed its eyes, as if falling asleep.

Xu Qi'an and Mu Nanzhi waited patiently.

About half a quarter of an hour later, a will that was as vast as smoke and as majestic as the sea came, no, to be precise, it was awakened from Bai Ji's body.

Behind it grew a second tail, a third tail, and a fourth tail. Until nine tails appeared, like a peacock with its tail open.

It opened its eyes, and the dark pupils were replaced by a clear light that seemed to overflow the eye sockets.

The charming laughter like silver bells echoed in the temple, which has the charm of bewitching all beings.

coming

The princess of the Wan Yao Kingdom, the nine-tailed sky fox, one of the world's most powerful people.

Xu Qi'an and her were considered to have had a "fate", but still did not dare to underestimate her, his body tensed slightly, and he clasped his fists and said:

"I've seen my wife."

Bai Ji came waving her nine fox tails, stepping into the void step by step, stopped in front of Xu Qi'an, looked at him, and said with a smile:

"You little silver gong, what do you want from me?"

The posture of a big sister. Xu Qi'an murmured in his heart, did not say anything directly, looked at the little white fox, and said:

"Bai Ji is your blood?"

The way the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox appeared was a bit weird, it didn't come from will, but appeared in a waking state.

In other words, Bai Ji herself can be regarded as a sleeping nine-tailed sky fox, and she can directly occupy this body as long as she wants.

Xu Qi'an is considered well-informed now, and knows that such operations, in addition to specific secret methods, are also very important to carry the carrier of consciousness, usually the blood of direct relatives.

The nine-tailed sky fox chuckled lightly and said:

"Maybe let's guess."

Xu Qi'an didn't know how to answer for a while.

The nine-tailed celestial fox turned its head sideways and glanced at Mu Nanzhi, who immediately stared.

What to see!

She looked away casually, and then looked at the Buddha Pagoda.

"Since you have found Shenshu's other arm, why don't you release him?" Nine-tailed Sky Fox said softly.

Is this questioning me? Xu Qi'an calmly said: "The premise of releasing him is to be able to control it, and Ta Ling is not willing to release Shenshu."

"madness!"

Even if she swears, it still gives people a coquettish feeling in the lover's world. Xu Qi'an thinks that this is probably the highest level of charm.

"Ta Ling didn't want to, so he forcibly destroyed it. What's the use of a disobedient magic weapon? Shenshu's severed arm is full of malice, but from another perspective, it is the best way to control the enemy.

"If you use it properly, it can help you kill the enemy. You have been with it before, and you should know that it can communicate and negotiate, and it is not a purely evil thing that does things according to instinct."

The little white fox said while walking, when it stopped, it was almost cheek to cheek with Xu Qian.

It is obviously a fox cub, but it shows a very strong attack.

Xu Qi'an frowned and took a step back.

The Nine-Tailed Sky Fox was taken aback for a moment, examined him for a moment, then burst out laughing, teasingly said:

"Beast Gu."

Beast Gu is Heart Gu.

The nine-tailed celestial fox smiled and said:

"What the fox clan lacks most is beauties, flirtatious, innocent, charming and enthusiastic, and as cold as ice. This palace can reward Xu Yinluo with a group of fox clan beauties for you to practice heart gu."

Madam, our fox family wants a promise. Xu Qi'an said in a deep voice:

"Thank you for your kindness, but Ben Yinluo is not a womanizer."

Mu Nanzhi kept a stern face the whole time, feeling old-fashioned in her heart.

As a woman, she instinctively resists the charming nine-tailed sky fox. What makes her even more vigilant is that Xu Qi'an, who has always been able to do a job among thousands of flowers, seems to have no benefit in front of her, and is even faintly suppressed.

This is not the suppression of cultivation, but the suppression of subject and object.

Xu Qi'an took a deep breath: "This time, I have to invite the empress to come here because there is something important to do."

Nine-tailed Sky Fox smiled and remained silent, waiting for him to continue.

"I found the fragment of the Heavenly Mirror." Xu Qi'an didn't hold back, and cut to the chase.

The nine tails gently stroked by the little white fox froze for a moment, and after a few seconds, the soft voice of the nine-tailed sky fox sounded, revealing a little longing and surprise:

"Are you sure it's the Heavenly Mirror?"

Xu Qi'an didn't talk nonsense, and beckoned to the Buddha Pagoda to communicate with the pagoda spirit.

The gate of the first floor of the Buddha Pagoda opened, and the golden light wrapped in the mirror of the sky flew out and landed in Xu Qi'an's palm.

The mirror of the sky seems to have fallen into a deep sleep, and the eye without eyelashes no longer protrudes from the mirror.

The nine-tailed celestial fox followed it, and the light in her eyes slowly shrank, revealing a pair of black eyes, the same pair of eyes, but in Xu Qi'an's view, its charm was completely different from that of the little white fox.

Bai Ji's eyes are moist and pure, the cleanest eyes of a child.

Now these eyes have too many complex expressions, nostalgia, sadness, joy, and loss. The eyes are the windows of the soul, and the emotions they carry are so complicated.

"The Heavenly Mirror is the vanity mirror of the Lord of the Thousand Monsters in the past?"

Xu Qi'an played with the bronze mirror and asked.

"Any magic weapon has its unique ability, but on weekdays, my mother really puts it on the table and acts as a vanity mirror."

The complex emotions in the nine-tailed sky fox's eyes converged, and the clear light overflowed again, filling the eye sockets.

Xu Qi'an said with a smile: "Then, what is the empress planning to trade with.

The subject and object were reversed, Xu Qi'an took the initiative.

The nine-tailed celestial fox sighed and said angrily:

"You fickle man, isn't it enough for me to give you Bai Ji as a child bride? You are so greedy, that's all, Ye Ji is your old lover anyway, so I will give you Bai Ji and Ye Ji together. "

Mu Nanzhi frowned.

You want to whore me for nothing? Xu Qi'an let out a "huh":

"My lady, don't make such jokes.

"Magic treasures are rare in the world. Although the Heavenly Mirror is broken, I can nourish it with dragon air and keep it by my side to defend against the enemy.

"If you are not sincere, then leave."

The nine-tailed celestial fox smiled and said:

"Mother is right, the man became cruel, and he really didn't show affection at all.

"Forget it, since Xu Yinluo doesn't like sisters Bai Ji and Ye Ji, then I can only think of other ways."

She seemed to have a draft in her stomach, and said without a pause:

"Two magic nails!"

Xu Qi'an's eyes lit up, and said: "Four roots!"

The nine-tailed celestial fox said angrily:

"You simply ask me to help you remove all the seals.

"Although I have a method, I can only pull out two roots at most, and there is nothing I can do if there are more. You should already know that the magic nail is a magic weapon refined by the Buddha. Apart from Him, only Bodhisattvas can pull out all of them.

"In addition, I am currently overseas and cannot return to the mainland of Kyushu. It will take some time to remove the magic nail."

To me, exchanging an incomplete magic weapon for two magic nails is definitely a huge profit. In the current situation, nothing is more cost-effective than unlocking the seal. Xu Qi'an frowned:

"how long?"

"Three months!" she said.

"No, I will only give you one month, and the expired transaction will be void." Xu Qi'an was quite forceful.

Three months is too late.

"Can!"

The nine-tailed sky fox agreed.

After the deal was concluded, Xu Qi'an said, "Why are you going overseas?"

Nine-tailed Sky Fox smiled and said, "Look for possible clan members."

Xu Qi'an didn't quite understand, or didn't realize the importance of the information contained in this sentence.

Nine-tailed Sky Fox explained:

"After the end of the era of gods and demons, the two races of humans and demons rose up. Among the descendants of gods and demons, some went overseas and never came back."

After traveling overseas, Xu Qi'an suddenly thought of the legendary "White Emperor" beast in Yunzhou, which was a strange beast that was suspected to be a descendant of Qilin.

It once came from overseas and stayed in the coastal area of ​​Yunzhou for a long time. This beast exhaled into wind and inhaled into thunder. When it appeared, it was accompanied by wind, rain, thunder and lightning, which just solved the drought in Yunzhou at that time.

"The nine-tailed celestial fox is a descendant of gods and demons, with a unique spirit, but the number of people in the tribe has always been small. Now I am the only one left in the entire Kyushu."

The nine-tailed celestial fox sighed, complaining about himself and saying: "I am a big girl with a yellow flower who has lived for hundreds of years. She also wants to get married, so she went to sea to find her future husband."

For a moment, Xu Qi'an couldn't tell whether she was telling the truth or a lie.

To be honest, the character of the nine-tailed sky fox made him a little bit overwhelmed. In the previous martial arts novels, he was just a weird, moody witch.

Well, she was originally a witch.

Why do we have to find the same race? Isn't it good to find a foreign race? Xu Qi'an said:

"I think Heart Gu is suitable for you."

The Nine-Tailed Sky Fox choked for a moment, then stared at him faintly:

"Your provocation is in place."

Xu Qi'an gave a dry laugh, and changed the topic:

"Why did the Heavenly Mirror end up in the Central Plains?"

"In the past, the monster clan was defeated, and the remnants scattered and fled in all directions, hiding in various parts of Kyushu. After I rose up, I conquered most of the remnants of the Wan Yao Kingdom, but there are still a small number of monster clans who were frightened by Buddhism.

"Choose to integrate into the human race and live a stable life. Or live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and no longer participate in the affairs of the two races. And they have more or less the inheritance of the Wanyao Kingdom in their hands. The treasures that have been lost and never found are not only the mirror of the sky. .”

The nine-tailed sky fox said.

"Your Majesty, don't leave in a hurry, I have a few questions I want to ask."

While putting the Heavenly Mirror into the Pagoda of the Buddha, he asked:

"Back then, what was the real reason why Buddhism destroyed the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom?"

According to the history books, it was because the monster race caused chaos and harmed the common people, and Buddhism exterminated the monsters for the sake of the human race.

But after so many things, he would be too stupid to believe what was written in the book.

The nine-tailed celestial fox was silent for a while, and the mature and soft female voice was somewhat cold, and asked:

"Why does Buddhism covet the territory of the Central Plains?

"If you can know the hidden truth behind this incident, you will naturally understand why Buddhism wants to destroy the kingdom of ten thousand demons."

If I knew, I would ask you? Xu Qi'an said:

"Please make it clear, Madam."

Nine-tailed Sky Fox curled his lips, and snorted coquettishly: "The value of this information is not enough even if you are sold. What a beautiful idea, stinky man."

The tone is soft, as if coquettish.

You are a widow making trouble at night! Xu Qi'an, who didn't get an answer, slandered angrily, and asked instead:

"What does your empress think about the situation in the Central Plains? As far as I know, Xu Pingfeng has joined hands with Buddhism to occupy the Central Plains."

Wan Yao Kingdom and Buddhism are mortal enemies, Xu Pingfeng and Buddhism join forces, so they are also enemies of Wan Yao Kingdom.

"I will give some help."

Nine-tailed Sky Fox expressed his attitude bluntly: "What else do you want to ask?"

How old are you fox people? Xu Qi'an shook his head: "No more."

Bai Ji flew back to the pedestal. During the process, her tail gradually decreased, and her eyes were clear and restrained.

When the four short legs landed on the base, the nine-tailed sky fox just left.

"Is the lady gone?"

It looked left and right without knowing anything, walked to the edge of the base cautiously, looked down, and after visually measuring the height, jumped down cautiously.

I fell down.
