3. Fox now
Time passed and it was sunset in a blink of an eye.
The clouds are rolling with golden and orange colors, the setting sun reflects the towering mountains in the distance, and the thousands of miles of green mountains are now turning into magnificent crimson.
The river reflects the afterglow and flows quietly by the village.
The free-range chickens and ducks have also returned home, waiting for nightfall.
On the river bank, someone shouted. They cast the fishing net every morning and put it away in the evening to check the harvest. With the light of the fireworks at dusk, the big net in the river was gradually closing.
"Chu Er, my network is broken!" someone shouted.
The fishing net in his hand was in tatters, as if it had been smashed by some giant creature.
"My place is also broken!" Chu Er on the other end shouted, and after thinking for a while he added, "It's like a big fish was trapped and hit with a big hole!"
Big fish, they have been fishing in this river for decades, but have they ever seen any big fish? The villager held the broken fishing net and muttered in his heart. He turned it over and checked the fishing net, and the broken edges of the mesh were stretched to be very thin.
It's very long. How big of a fish would it be to make such a big hole in the net?
While the villager was deep in thought, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.
"Huh?" He turned around, only to be struck by the dazzling undulations of white.
The plump woman in white stared at him timidly, her eyebrows and eyes full of seductive affection. The orange-red light of dusk slanted on the woman's body, losing the alienation of her beautiful face and adding the aura of human beings in the world.
Villagers who have lived in the mountains for decades have never seen such a beauty. She was stared at by the woman, motionless.
When the beauty spoke, her voice was timid.
"Excuse me, brother, is he here this morning?"
"Sister, you..." The villager scratched his head in embarrassment, "Can you be more detailed and tell me which family the gangster is from? Are you being bullied? Brother, I will call the villagers to seek justice for you!"
It's really weird. With such a beautiful girl at home, how can a man go out to flirt with women? The villagers can guarantee that there is no one prettier than the girl in front of him within dozens of miles around this mountain.
The woman did not speak. She saw the broken fishing net in the hands of the villagers, and a flash of understanding flashed in her eyes.
"May I ask, brother, from which direction did this fishing net break?"
"Let me take a look, the hole is heading south."
"It's strange, how come this good network is broken..." The villager wanted to say more, but his eyes suddenly went dark for a moment. When he calmed down and looked again, dusk had long passed, and the night stars were falling in the sky. He
He was still holding the broken fishing net in his hand, and his body movements were the same as before, without any change, which meant that he didn't look back at all!
In the dark mountains and fields, the lights gradually come on in the villages.
Where are the women here?
"Chu Da, why are you standing still?" Chu Er's shout rang out from beside him. He saw something was wrong and ran over to take a look.
Chu Da didn't respond, like a sculpture.
Recalling the scene just now, the woman's appearance became increasingly blurry, and her whole body was hairy.
…………
Deep in the green mountains, there is an island in the middle of the lake.
The lake is silent, its face is like a mirror, reflecting the stars in the sky.
A petite white shadow walked out of the mountains and stepped onto the lake. It turned out to be a fox. It stepped on the lake water, and thin ice formed on the soles of its feet, so it did not fall into the water.
The white fox felt the terrifying atmosphere like a mountain in the center of the lake, and knew that he had finally found it.
It walked across the lake and came to the island.
There are towering giant trees growing here, with their branches and leaves stretching out to cover the sky. When the fox walks to the bottom of the tree and looks up, the stars seem to be hanging on the ancient branches and leaves. It cannot hear any sound. No matter how quiet the mountain forest is, there are still faint insects.
The song of the bird is difficult to notice, but when it stands here, all the sounds disappear. It seems that the closer you are to that person, the further away the world is from it.
This tree looks very much like a camphor tree, with a tall tree shape and twisted dragon and snake-like lines on its trunk.
Dark and silent.
But a thunderous roar sounded above its head, and the scales scratched the trunk, making the ancient tree shudder. Occasionally, leaves fell off, and there were marks like knife scratches on the leaves.
The long breath ruffled the fox's hair. It didn't smell as fishy as he imagined, but had a strange and strange fragrance.
Two bright yellow lanterns lit up in the deep darkness, illuminating the layers of scales entwined on the ancient trees. Even though he knew what he was facing, the fox couldn't help but retreat when he actually stood with it.
Li Xi'an looked at the little fox in front of him.
From the moment the fox appeared on the hilltop on the lakeshore, it noticed that it was not surprised by the other party's arrival. Rather, it made its inner premonition come true. Especially with the other party's strange ability to step across the lake, it should be said that the changes have finally begun.
What?
It waits for the fox to speak, since the other party is sure to come to it. If there is no way to communicate, all the efforts will be wasted and meaningless to the fox.
The fox seemed to know what Li Xi'an was thinking, and a hazy white light rose from his body.
A plump woman dressed in white appeared on the spot.
Transformation? Li Xi'an frowned, a little confused. His golden eyes flashed with light, and he realized that the woman was just a shadow, and the fox itself had not changed at all. This was just a simple illusion.
The woman bowed down.
"Master of Taihang Mountain, I hope you won't be surprised if I dare to use some tricks."
It was a similar title again, Li Xi'an was silent, there was essentially no difference whether he was the owner of Taihang Mountain or the mountain god. In the past, when humans called mountain gods, it only thought it was a misunderstanding. After all, when it was still a human, it read those strange novels, and the common people
It is not uncommon to worship some magical things as river gods, mountain gods and the like.
But the psychic fox in front of me also called him that.
It cannot help but ponder.
"Can you go to the north of Taihang?" Bai Hu said.
Li Xi'an looked down at it and waited quietly for the next words.
"There is a fierce tiger rising there."
It heard what the fox meant and wanted it to go to Beishan to stop the ferocious tiger from rising.
The big red snake was circling, motionless.
This is a natural choice, and Li Xi'an believes that he has no right to interfere. It has not figured out how big the Taihang Mountains are during its more than two hundred years of life. It just found a good place to enclose it. How many creatures exist in it? Li Xi'an
Xi'an is called the god of the Taihang Mountains, but it doesn't think it can be the god of this ancient mountain range at all. Even if other creatures here become as inexplicably powerful as it does, they are still the choice of this world and this mountain.
What's more... his candle-like eyes glanced at the fox.
A rising creature? It heard the name fox. How could there be only one of these things? That ferocious tiger might just be walking at the front of the road, and the fox in front of it was one of them. Could it be that there was one in the Taihang Mountains, and it went to kill one?
Respect nature.
This is some of Li Xi'an's insights as a big snake over two hundred years ago.
Seeing that the big snake didn't respond, the woman lowered her head lower.
"That ferocious tiger is going to be born and kill all the humans in sight. I hope you can save her..."
Save her...
The big snake swam, its slender neck hanging down from the shadow of the ancient tree first, its blood jade-like scales opening and closing from front to back along with Li Xi'an's breathing. The fox felt like he was enveloped by the sound of metal roaring, and there were sounds from all directions.
The slithering figure of a large snake.
The candle flame flickered, finally stopping at a high place where the fox could see.
The big snake looked down at it, its face covered with hard bony protrusions, as if covered with a red copper mask.
This face does not look like a snake, but more like a legendary evil ghost.
The fox shuddered violently.
Li Xi'an really can't sit idly by when a ferocious tiger is born to kill people. Killing innocent people is one thing, and rising creatures are another. With the changing times, the torrent of steel cannot be resisted by simple flesh and blood. Don't cause trouble.
Trouble, by then, it will have to leave its homeland where it has lived for two hundred years.
lead the way.
