She stretched out her arm and lunged at the three figures in front of her: "Fox! Pipa! Pheasant! I've missed you all so much!"
The three figures that slipped into the room were clearly the three demon classmates of Tongsu from the Langhuan era!
The four little ones cried and hugged each other, eager to express their sorrow at parting, but knowing time was of the essence, the fox hurriedly said:
“I listened to what you told us before. After leaving Langhuan, I have been following the Yellow Emperor’s tribe. We helped them a lot in this battle against the Jiuli. We were even received by the Yellow Emperor last time!”
"He said that after he passes away, we can live by his grave and cultivate, and we won't be bullied by other monsters. Moreover, our cultivation will increase faster."
"Yes, now we're officially on the right track in the Xuanyuan tribe... but Ah Tong, why did you want us to get close to the Yellow Emperor?"
Tong Su blinked and said with a grin, "Because he can win, it's safer to follow him."
—Actually, the more important reason is that the Yellow Emperor was one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, and the earliest crown prince in China. He had a strong imperial dragon aura, which could protect the minor demons and monsters he acknowledged and keep them from being entangled in karmic calamities.
In later legends, the three fox demons lived and cultivated in Xuanyuan Tomb. Even after the Yellow Emperor's death, his tomb protected the three demons for thousands of years. If they had received the Yellow Emperor's protection, their safety would certainly have been even better.
Tong Su pondered that her current influence might prevent Nuwa from sending the three demons to seduce King Zhou in the mortal realm, but that was a matter of thousands of years from now. What would happen in those thousands of years?
Therefore, it's better to protect your own safety and strengthen your own capabilities first.
No one could say for sure. These three demons were simple-minded and were her rare friends, so of course she wanted to help them make arrangements for the future.
"Ah Tong, we're leaving now. Take good care of yourself..."
"We're still waiting for you to come back to Langhuan so we can continue our studies together!"
"That's right, we promised to travel the prehistoric world together, you can't break your promise."
Tong Su nodded vigorously, saw the three demons off, sighed softly, returned to the table, and leaned against the small window to look west.
She wants to go back too.
only.
That chance is probably gone.
The night was so dark that the horizon was indistinct, with only a few stars hanging forlornly in the sky.
Inside the Nuwa Palace, a few candlesticks were lit, their flickering lights casting scattered glows.
Nuwa twisted her tail today, and it hurts a little when she walks. Fuxi carried her to bed and gently massaged her tail.
"Don't scratch there, it itches..."
She laughed, her snow-white tail trying to roll to the side. Fuxi lifted his tail and pressed down the restless white snake tail, whispering, "Don't move, or you'll twist even more."
“Oh, you don’t understand if you don’t move…” Nuwa reached out and put her arm around his shoulder, resting her head on his chest. “Brother, you’ve been acting strange all day. What happened?”
Fuxi's hand trembled, and he raised his head, smiling wryly: "You've discovered it."
"We know each other so well, we hatched from the same egg. I can tell what you're thinking just by frowning, how could I not notice?"
He laughed: "Then I'll just furrow my brow now, and you'll know what I'm thinking, right?"
"...I was just using a metaphor!" she laughed in exasperation, then playfully punched his shoulder in anger. "Tell me, tell me!"
Fuxi took a deep breath and opened his arms.
In his hand, a bone slip appeared, slowly rotating in the faint light.
"Wa'er, I recently received some news... I heard that someone in the prehistoric world has discovered traces of green fruit. This thing can help sages conceive, and I think... I want to go and get it for you."
