Hunting Moon
Listening to this, everyone in Longyin Pavilion was stunned. Was she... talking to those foxes?
They couldn't help but glance at Yu Linhuan several times, thinking: "It can't be the brain, cough..." They laughed in their hearts: "What are you talking to a fox? Can a fox understand human language? How could a fox let us out?"
But they said nothing, just smiled strangely.
In the sky, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse, far away from the firelight, and the night sky is like silk with undulating luster.
"I thought it was a wonder of Dongling..." Yu Linhuan was silent for a moment, then spoke in a heavy tone.
Everyone: “…”
The smiles on everyone's faces gradually disappeared, and everyone became expressionless and silent.
After a moment, they turned their eyes away and said, "Let's go to the moon and take a look."
"Wait." Jiang Yi suddenly stopped them.
Everyone looked over in confusion.
Jiang Yi frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What do you think is going on in this world?"
What is going on? Isn't that the same situation? Everyone in Longyin Pavilion was stunned, puzzled.
Jiang Yi patiently said, "This world is fake, but what created it? An illusion, a magical weapon, or something else?"
Everyone around Long Yin suddenly understood what he meant.
"Hmm..." Yu Linhuan pondered for a moment, then answered irrelevantly, "I just told the boss that the creature under the cliff is a creation of the Yu Tu clan, but the fox is not. So whose fox is it?"
Everyone looked at her.
Jiang Jingyuan also looked over, his expression indifferent, but his heart unconsciously tightened a little.
Yu Linhuan looked up at them and asked, "Do you know Shanlou?"
The expressions of the people in Longyin Pavilion changed slightly, and the gentle smiles on the faces of the women behind Jiang Jingyuan also paused.
They stared at Yu Linhuan, "You said this place was built by the people in Shanlou?"
Jiang Jingyuan: "?"
Jiang Jingyuan was still confused when Xu Qinglin's voice echoed in his mind: "'Xun Dao Ren' belongs to Shan Lou."
Jiang Jingyuan let out a soft "ah" and then responded with an "oh". She thought that the organization that "Xun Dao Ren" belonged to was "Xun Dao Ren".
Jiang Jingyuan raised his eyes and looked at Yu Linhuan.
Yu Linhuan was silent for a moment, then asked everyone, "Do you know 'Mountain Tower'?"
Everyone opened their eyes slightly wide, stunned for a long while, and then stammered, "No, otherwise, what were we talking about just now?"
"I'm talking about the 'Mountain Tower,'" Yu Linhuan said. "It's a magical instrument, a magnificent building in the mountains that soars into the clouds. It's called the 'Mountain Tower.' This is the original foundation of the Mountain Tower."
Everyone in Longyin Pavilion was quiet, even Jiang Yi narrowed his eyes and was deep in thought.
"I know."
Instead, the maids behind Jiang Jingyuan responded calmly. One of them asked, "Do you think we are in the 'Mountain Tower' now?"
Yu Linhuan nodded and said, "I don't know the function of the 'Mountain Tower'. I only heard about its appearance from my master.
"This is Dongling. Which immortal sect would cause trouble here? Besides the Yutu Sect... I even think that without Dongling's approval, the Yutu Sect wouldn't be able to interfere even if they wanted to."
She said, "But besides Yu Tumen? I thought about it and could only think of Shanlou and 'Shanlou'."
Everyone fell silent.
Jiang Jingyuan also remained silent.
Suddenly, a maid behind her came forward with an anxious look on her face and whispered beside her, "My Lord, Rong, your Excellency, please tell us when you ask..."
"That's all right."
Jiang Jingyuan interrupted her.
The woman was stunned.
Jiang Jingyuan raised his finger to the sky, expressionless, and said to everyone: "Let's take the moon back first."
Everyone looked up suddenly.
High above the rich and dazzling night sky, a dark cloud crossed horizontally across the upper half of the bright full moon.
Everyone paused and squinted their eyes to look carefully.
In that horizontally elongated illusory black cloud, layers of fox figures were running in the air with all four legs, and the bright full moon was moving slowly in the night sky.
That's not a dark cloud at all!!
Everyone widened their eyes.
"Hurry up and stop them!!!"
One person screamed and rushed out first. Everyone followed closely, running towards the full moon.
Almost at the same time, the large group of foxes in the sky stopped pretending and ran wildly through the air, carrying the bright full moon.
"Put the moon down!!!"
The crowd shouted and chased them, shouting and killing them.
Like the cry of a giggling fox.
Jiang Jingyuan stood motionless on the ground with a group of maids. She just raised her head and followed them and them with her gaze from afar.
Suddenly, Jiang Jingyuan raised his right hand and pointed at the moon, a cold light flashing in his lightly fluttering white sleeves.
Her dark eyes narrowed.
"call out--"
The icy arrow streaked across the night sky, and under the bright moonlight, with the sound of breaking through the air, it suddenly pierced the bright full moon.
In an instant, the huge full moon was nailed to the night sky.
A large group of foxes gathered like a dark cloud and ran around. They were caught off guard and found that they could not move the moon at all. They started shouting in panic.
At night, the foxes cried softly, unable to conceal their panic.
The people from Longyin Pavilion who were chasing after them were overjoyed, shouting "Give the moon back!", raising their swords and rushing forward without stopping.
The foxes looked panicked, their long silver whiskers trembled, and they muttered something.
The three foxes suddenly ran down and came to the center of the full moon, staring at the icy arrow that emitted a terrifying cold air. In an instant, they showed a determined look, pounced on it, and bit the part of the full moon nailed by the arrow.
Nibble, nibble, nibble, nibble, nibble, and bite a round hole in the center of the bright full moon, as if it had been bitten by a dog.
The little fox swung its body and kicked at the ice arrow.
Brush——
The small full moon, along with the icy arrow, fell powerlessly from the night, leaving a streak of light, shattered into star powder, and dissipated.
The three foxes shook their fur, shaking off a thin layer of frost, and followed the pace of the large "dark cloud" above, carrying the moon and running wildly.
The people chasing behind watched the duck that was about to be caught fly away, and they were so angry that they almost vomited blood.
The foxes' cries became brisk again, like tender giggles, hehe, they ran and jumped, running wildly so that no one could catch up.
At this moment, the leading fox suddenly stopped and the foxes behind it fell down in an instant.
Yu Linhuan appeared in front of them at some point, smiled, and said, "It's not cute at all to be in the way even after collecting things."
The foxes were all frightened and their eyes widened. They screamed, looked behind them, looked left and right, and finally gritted their teeth and ran upwards carrying the moon.
Yu Linhuan threw out a net with his backhand without hesitation. The illusory spiritual net grew huge at a speed visible to the naked eye, covering the large group of snow-white foxes with an overwhelming force.
This immediately caused the foxes to scream.
The foxes ran around carrying the full moon, but were trapped by human figures from all directions.
On the ground, Jiang Jingyuan saw the full moon hanging high in the sky shaking wildly.
Seeing the huge spiritual net coming, a large number of foxes made sad faces and fled, leaving only the full moon in its place.
Yu Linhuan smiled, retracted the spiritual net, and walked towards the moon with the people from Longyin Pavilion around him.
Suddenly, a huge black shadow swooped down from above, opened its mouth and swallowed the full moon in one gulp.
In the last bit of moonlight, Yu Linhuan and everyone else from Longyin Pavilion froze in their smiles.
Thick darkness surged in from all directions, and in the false world, broken stars on the night sky cast faint light.
Jiang Jingyuan saw it.
In the night sky, the next moment after the little foxes escaped, a huge fox figure appeared out of nowhere. Its snow-white fur was facing away from the moonlight and was seen as a black shadow.
The huge fox opened its mouth and swallowed the full moon in one gulp in front of Yu Linhuan and everyone from Longyin Pavilion.
From then on, the world was in darkness.
The world is silent.
Everyone looked at each other, only seeing each other's clear figures and dark faces.
Unable to see the other person's face or eyes, a thought inevitably emerged in my mind -
The person standing in front of me at this moment... is he still the person I once knew and cherished?
In that darkness, would the eyes looking at me be filled with resentment?
Everyone's heart tightened, and they all remained silent and motionless, frozen in place.
“Swish——”
Fire lit up on the ground.
Everyone was secretly shocked and turned their heads to look, and saw the figure of a girl in white clothes in the orange-red firelight.
Everyone in the sky suddenly looked at each other again, looking up and around, "Where's the fox, where's the moon——?"
In the night sky, apart from them, there was no one else but the fox.
Someone couldn't help but get angry, "I saw that Lao Wu and the others were fine, and I thought Fox had a change of heart, but I didn't expect that..."
When he turned around, he saw that everyone looked stunned, and he was also stunned for a moment.
"Boss Jiang!!"
"Miss!!"
On the ground, figures ran out of the forest, shouting.
Just as they finished speaking, a line of light suddenly appeared in the dense darkness. It gradually grew brighter, then spread out at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The night has faded.
Everyone in the sky and on the ground turned around and looked at the figures approaching.
The person who came running was delighted and shouted, "We walked in the woods for a long time and couldn't find you. We walked to the campfire and couldn't find you... Suddenly the moon disappeared, and when we turned around, we saw a fire right here!"
They spoke incoherently, their tone excited and ecstatic, and they did not notice the expressions on the faces of the people in front of them.
"Miss……"
The women quickly calmed down their excitement, smiled, and walked to Jiang Jingyuan.
Jiang Jingyuan said "hmm".
The people from Longyin Pavilion surrounded Jiang Yi and the others, talking about something in a buzzing voice and gesticulating.
"I understand." Jiang Yi suddenly interrupted them, "Let's find a way to leave first."
The newcomer paused, then smiled and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I'm glad to find you." and walked into the crowd.
The other people in Longyin Pavilion glanced at them, then looked away calmly.
For them, the disappearance of a person often means death. They never expected that at the last moment, someone could come back alive.
These foxes... they lower their eyes, they're quite kind...
They raised their heads, smiled, and said jokingly, "It's us who wronged the fox. The fox is kind enough to send us out."
Jiang Jingyuan stood on the ground, staring at the thickest part of the sky that was fragmented by the shadows of the trees, and suddenly walked over.
Push aside the grass and walk around the tree in that direction.
Everyone was stunned, and then their hearts started pounding. They controlled their steps and followed steadily.
Jiang Jingyuan walked, thinking that it would take a long time to reach the edge of the cliff before she could feel the large morning sunshine. However, she just casually pushed aside a branch in front of her, and the sky was suddenly covered with light.
She squinted her eyes and blinked rapidly, but her feet paused for a moment and then continued forward, walking into the light.
