Chapter 164 Fox Demon

"Zheng Zi rode his donkey southward and entered the north gate of Shengping. He happened to see three women walking on the road. Among them was a woman in white clothes, with a beautiful face. Zheng Zi was surprised and delighted to see her. He urged the donkey, sometimes in front of her, sometimes behind her, and was about to challenge her but did not dare. The woman in white kept looking at him, as if she was attracted by something..."①

Under the light, Xue Che and Su Zhizhi's voices rang out softly.

Two little heads put together, eyes wide open, reading a legend together.

It was the first time for both of them to read this kind of book. In the past, the adults in their family would never buy such a book for them to read.

But now, in a guest room in the far northwest, I read absurd and fantastical stories.

The two of them tacitly kept this a secret and did not tell the adults.

They read quietly, occasionally skipping over words or sentences they didn't understand, but this didn't prevent them from understanding the general story.

The general idea is that a fox transformed into a beautiful woman and lived with a human man, but later died due to an accident when its true form was revealed.

Su Zhizhi was shocked. It turned out that in addition to the "zhihuzheya" and "the way of a gentleman", the book also told the story of a fox turning into a human.

The fox turned into a beautiful woman, put on a white dress, and lived with humans.

"A fox that turns into a human is actually prettier than a human. If a human turns into a fox, would they also be prettier than a fox?"

A series of questions popped up in Su Zhizhi's mind again.

Xue Che: "Even animals want to become humans and live a better life. Why would anyone want to become an animal?"

Su Zhizhi: "But after Ren transformed from a fox into a human, he didn't live a good life either. He was later bitten to death by a hunting dog."

Xue Che found it difficult to refute.

When the two were about to continue the discussion, Qiu Jinyu came and told Su Zhizhi to go to bed.

Su Zhizhi will sleep with Qiu Jinyu tonight.

After washing up, Su Zhizhi, wearing clean clothes, wriggled in the quilt like a caterpillar.

Qiu Jinyu patted the restless caterpillar:

"Go to sleep. If you don't go to sleep, the goblins will come and catch the children."

Hearing this, Su Zhizhi poked her head out from under the covers, her eyes full of anticipation and curiosity:

"What kind of demon? A fox spirit in white clothes?"

Qiu Jinyu blew out the light, threw off the quilt and got into bed:

"I don't know. I've never been captured by a goblin."

Starlight dotted the windowsill.

The night wind whispers under the eaves.

Su Zhizhi's eyes were still wide open in the darkness.

It's very beautiful when a fox turns into a human.

I also like to wear white clothes.

"Aunt Qiu, is Doctor Yu a demon in disguise?"

Qiu Jinyu chuckled in the darkness:

"absurd."

…

"Ridiculous, this is absolutely ridiculous."

Hua Qianjiao is twenty-six years old. She has seen killing, blood, and evil people committing crimes.

But she felt that what she saw tonight was definitely the most ridiculous scene she had ever seen in her life.

Yu Rubai, in her bed.

Yu Rubai, who had taken off her shirt, was sent to her bed.

Yu Rubai, who had taken off her shirt and was drugged, was sent to her bed by her father and the elders in the valley!

Tonight, she took Su Zhizhi back to her room.

The two of them walked into the inner room. Hua Qianjiao lifted a corner of the bed curtain and saw that there seemed to be someone under the quilt.

Hua Qianjiao vigilantly pulled Su Zhizhi behind her and quickly lifted the bed curtains.

He found Yu Rubai lying unconscious under the quilt.

Su Zhizhi cried out, supporting herself on the bed with both hands.

"Why is Doctor Yu sleeping here?"

When she supported the quilt with both hands, a corner of the quilt on Yu Rubai was pulled down, revealing a small piece of white shoulder.

Hua Qianjiao blindfolded Su Zhizhi and dragged her out.

"Zhizhi, I'm sorry, we can't sleep together tonight. I need to take care of Doctor Yu."

Hua Qianjiao sent Su Zhizhi back to the guest house gate, watched Su Zhizhi enter the yard, and then hurried back.

She had really been away from the Five Poison Valley for too long.

Only then did I remember that the Five Poison Valley was only restricted in terms of location and people were not allowed to leave.

They are not a reputable or upright family, and do not have so many rules of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy and morality. They are unrestrained and free-spirited when doing things, and sometimes they are really unreasonable.

When Hua Qianjiao returned to the yard, she met her sister Hua Qianhuan at the gate.

Hua Qianhuan clearly looked like she had just learned about this:

"I heard from my father that several elders asked if you were satisfied?"

Seeing that her sister still seemed a little dazed, Hua Qianhuan grabbed her hand and advised:

"Some men just say one thing and mean another. Look at me and your brother-in-law. If I hadn't tied him up and taken him to the bridal chamber, how would I know that he..."

Hua Qianjiao: "Okay, sister, stop talking."

Hua Qianjiao stayed in the Five Poison Valley for more than ten years, and later lived in the half-bandit and half-civilian area of ​​Black Bandit Mountain for several years.

This is so ridiculous that no one would believe it if it were told to others.

But this is indeed something that those old guys in the Five Poison Valley can do.

Hua Qianjiao took out another quilt from the box and spread it on the bed.

After the lights were turned off, Hua Qianjiao and Yu Rubai lay side by side in their own quilts.

This absurd scene made Hua Qianjiao couldn't help laughing.

I don’t know what tricks they used, but they must have taken out the drugs that they usually don’t want to use and used them on Yu Rubai.

If it was just an ordinary drug, Yu Rubai would not fall for it.

But then again, he was a man who was drugged and knocked unconscious. What else could she do to him except watch?

Her father and several elders grasped this point.

He knew nothing would really happen, but he still sent the person to her to express his intention to make peace.

In the silent night, Hua Qianjiao's suppressed laughter echoed inside the bed curtains.

Ha ha ha ha……

She smiled without any hint of romance in her.

I really just think it's funny.

Since ancient times, we have only heard of people sending beautiful girls into men's tents. This is the first time we have encountered the opposite situation.

Hua Qianjiao laughed so hard that the tassels on the edge of the bed curtains were shaking.

After laughing enough, she supported her head and lay on her side, staring at Yu Rubai without blinking.

His eyes were tightly closed, and his smooth jade-like face was coated with a soft glow by the moonlight flowing into the room.

She has long eyelashes, a high and straight nose, and thin lips.

The soft light extended from his cheeks and jaw, across his neck, and spread to the small part of his shoulder exposed at the opening of the quilt.

Yu Rubai usually looks aloof, like a Taoist who has escaped from the world and ascended to heaven.

At this moment, she looked less cold and more gentle, and the faint herbal scent on her body also had a hint of ambiguity.

Hua Qianjiao reached out and pinched Yu Rubai's ear.

She had heard others say before that all men in the world are easily influenced by others, and she had long wanted to pinch Yu Rubai's ears.

After pinching it, it is indeed soft, especially the earlobe, which is very warm.

After pinching it twice, I felt that the earlobe under my fingertips seemed to become hotter.

The moonlight is still clear and the moon has not yet reached the zenith.

But the red morning glow had already risen on Yu Rubai's cheeks and ears.

Hua Qianjiao couldn't see clearly in the light and shadow. Just as she was about to get closer to take a closer look, Yu Rubai suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at her with a faint, indifferent gaze:

"Have you laughed enough?"

When the cold voice came out, Hua Qianjiao was surprised and rolled back subconsciously.

However, there was limited space on the bed, so Hua Qianjiao was forced to stop after turning less than half a circle.

"You, you didn't faint?" Hua Qianjiao asked doubtfully, "That's impossible. I took your pulse before I went to bed, and you were indeed knocked unconscious."

The effect of the medicine had not yet worn off, and Yu Rubai was unable to move his entire body, only his neck could move slightly.

He turned his neck to the side outside the bed and said with a red face:

"Just woke up."
