Chapter 11 A Suitable Snake Coffin



Hu Meier turned to look at her nine tails, her eyes filled with both surprise and delight.

She crouched down, picked up Kui Kui, and kissed her cheeks several times, making Kui Kui giggle.

“My Kui’er, you are truly my precious darling.”

For a fox spirit, having an extra tail means not only more power, but also more prestige.

Moreover, the Hu Xian family hasn't produced a nine-tailed fox spirit in a long time.

Even the current head of the family only has eight tails.

Hu Meier suppressed her inner elation and, after calming down, carefully examined the Kui Kui in her arms.

Although ordinary people can also be granted official titles, their power is generally very small.

She had never heard of anyone like Kui Kui, who could send an eight-tailed fox spirit to nine tails with just one word.

She had many doubts in her heart, and saw that although there was surprise in Old Lady Wang's eyes, there was no significant change in her expression.

She knew perfectly well what was going on and asked, "Sweetie, this isn't the first time Kui'er has been officially recognized, is it?"

Grandma Wang nodded and pointed to Little White, who was rolling around in the yard sunbathing.

Hu Meier glanced at it and suddenly realized that the little cat spirit from a few days ago had become much stronger.

Xiao Bai noticed her gaze, but was not afraid at all. She flipped over, stood up, and looked directly at her.

Grandma Wang explained, "It must be due to Kui Kui's destiny."

Hu Meier smiled gently, looked away, touched Kui Kui's little face, and put her down.

"Although the snake immortal destiny is rare, in the end, it is just a relatively good destiny, not a real snake immortal."

"At most, one can befriend snakes and avoid being bothered by snakes, insects, rats, and ants, which is far from being a human emperor."

She paused, then shook her head and said, "Even emperors in the mortal world might not be able to bestow titles so frequently and with such great power."

Perhaps, Kui'er's original destiny was even stronger than that of the Snake Fairy.

But she didn't say those words aloud.

The moment she grew nine tails, she seemed to see something in Kui Kui.

However, because her attention was focused on Kurama (the Nine-Tails), she didn't look at it too closely.

Now, when I think back, I can't remember it at all.

Hu Meier is carefree; if she can't remember something, she won't think about it.

She bent down, pinched Kui Kui's little face, and smiled, "If you ask me, it's because our Kui'er is kind-hearted and sincere."

Kui Kui smiled back. She only thought that Hu San Nai grew a tail because Hu San Nai was powerful, and never associated it with herself.

Hu Meier originally intended to report the matter of Kui Kui being officially appointed to the head of the family.

Upon further reflection, this was purely a matter of personal chance.

Moreover, the men in the clan looked down on her, believing that she only rose to her position because of the Third Master.

Why would she bother making a fool of herself? She might even be accused of coveting the position of family head.

After thinking it through, she said to Old Lady Wang, "I'll come over on the fifteenth of July too."

After saying that, he disappeared.

Kui Kui looked at the somber-faced Old Mrs. Wang and her parents who had returned from outside, and forced a bright smile at them.

There are still some days before the Ghost Festival (July 15th of the lunar calendar) when the coffin is to be brought in. This is the longest period of time that Kui Kui has spent with his parents since he can remember.

It was also the happiest time of her life since birth.

Her father took her up the mountain every day to dig for ginseng and hunt.

Her mother cooks her all sorts of delicious food every day.

Of course, she would still kowtow to the immortals and offer incense to Xiaobai with her grandmother every morning and evening.

Happy times always seem to pass by too quickly.

Before you know it, it's the Ghost Festival (July 15th of the lunar calendar).

Although her maternal grandmother and parents never told her about the snake coffin.

But she knew that today, her coffin would be lifted.

Lately, she keeps having the same dream.

In my dream, there was a huge coffin covered with snakes.

There were red ones, green ones, white ones, black ones, and brown ones; they flicked their tongues and hissed.

She was a little scared and couldn't help but take a step back.

The snakes noticed her fear and suddenly began to writhe.

Some tied themselves into bows, some twisted themselves into hearts, and some combined several strands to form a five-pointed star.

It made her laugh.

Now, she's no longer afraid of the snake coffin; she's more curious about it.

And these past few days she has also known that she is not about to die, she has a lot of time left.

On the morning of July 15th, after Old Lady Wang finished lighting incense, Chang Huaiyuan led three men into the house.

Chang Huaiyuan introduced, "This is the head of my Chang family, and these two are the third and eighth sons, respectively."

Old Mrs. Wang bowed and said, "Wang Tiantian greets the Chang family head, Third Master Chang, Sixth Master Chang, and Eighth Master Chang."

Everyone nodded slightly.

The head of the Chang family was named Chang Huaiqing. He was tall and slender, with a handsome face and a touch of feminine beauty.

"Old Six told us about your family's situation, and after thinking about it, we think a snake coffin would be suitable for Kui Kui."

"The elder in the coffin was also the head of my Chang family. According to seniority, she was my great-aunt. Her cultivation was extremely high."

"The only mistake I made was falling in love with my own chastity."

"Unfortunately, the falling flowers are willing, but the flowing water is indifferent. Xiang Tong never had any improper thoughts about her, only respect and reverence for her."

"Originally, the immortals and the incense boy lived in peace until the incense boy got married."
