Chapter 223: Spring Comes, Foxes Emerge, Azure Dragons Swim
She rubbed Xiao Yi'er's face and said, "Don't be so sad. Just practice well. We are here at home."
Xiao Yier took her hand and said, "Big sister, take care of yourself."
Shi Hua responded with a smile, looked at Gong Mengbi again, nodded to him, and left.
Gong Mengbi stretched out his hand and said, "Let's go. It's time for us to go back. Your master will be worried if he doesn't see you when he comes back."
Xiao Yier trotted over and grabbed Gong Mengbi's hand. He stood still, looked back, and said, "Grandma, I'll come to see you later."
Then he followed Gong Mengbi and rode the wind back to Shouyue Tower.
Gong Mengbi looked at the dawn in the east and smiled. Back at Shouyue Tower, Xiao Yier rolled over and curled up into a ball to catch up on his sleep.
Zhu Zhengxin had already started working, tidying up the unfinished meals, and Xiaoqian was helping him.
Gong Mengbi waved to them and asked them to come over.
Then he took off the grass ring from Zhu Zhengxin's neck and hung a golden heart lock on his neck, saying, "I asked someone to make this for you before. Now consider it a New Year's gift."
He then handed a box of incense powder to Xiaoqian and said, "This is what I prepared for you when I was mixing the perfume. It can strengthen your positive energy and drive away evil spirits, so that you will not be disturbed by evil spirits and maintain your own purity."
Xiaoqian and Zhu Zhengxin were surprised and delighted. They hadn't expected to receive lucky money. For a moment, they felt that staying at Lanyin Temple was worth it.
But this year, I'm afraid they still need to hold on in Lanyin Temple.
The first batch of foxes in Wuning County is about to graduate, and Gong Mengbi is temporarily unable to distract himself to open another branch in Lanyin Temple.
Fatty Kang and Xiangjun returned from the territory soon. After staying in Shouyue Tower for two days, they couldn't wait to leave.
Fatty Kang's restaurant had been closed for a few days, and he was losing money every day. Chinese New Year was a good time to pray to the gods, so the witch Xiangjun also had a lot of business.
It’s not about making money, but this is how practice in this world works.
Gong Mengbi saw them off. Fatty Kang said, "I drank all the wine last time I came. I'll refill it for you this time. Take your time."
Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "It's not far, we can meet anytime."
Fatty Kang glanced at him and said, "You are truly unfathomable now."
Gong Mengbi smiled and said, "You can be considered to have some brotherly demeanor."
Xiang Jun covered his mouth and laughed, "If you keep flattering each other, it will be dawn soon."
Gong Mengbi bowed and said, "Take care."
Fatty Kang waved his hand, and together with Xiangjun, he took Xiao Yier, Zhu Zhengxin and Xiaoqian to Jinhua County.
After the Lantern Festival, Fox Academy resumed classes.
This time, the tension among the foxes was almost palpable. On the one hand, Gong Mengbi was demanding that they review their previous learning and constantly review it, and on the other hand, the new training teacher would be coming in after February 2nd.
Of course, the foxes would rather Gong Mengbi teach them. Even without talking about teaching, Gong Mengbi's identity alone is already different from others.
But Gong Mengbi had already made the decision, and they had no choice but to accept it. Their uneasiness about the new teacher and their anxiety about what they were learning filled the entire Fox Academy with a spirit of striving for progress in learning.
Especially when the teacher of the practice department was about to be changed, Gong Mengbi began to sort out the obstacles in their practice, identify the deficiencies and fill in the gaps, which made them often feel confused as if they had learned something, but also as if they had not learned anything.
No matter what, the dead are like rivers, never to return.
January passes and February comes.
There was absolutely no pressure at all during this year's enrollment.
The threshold of Fox Hill is trampled down by foxes from Wuning County, Lin County, Yongkang County and Wushang County.
There was an endless stream of foxes that came early with Shu Xiu, and even people in Wuning County often saw foxes and felt surprised.
It is said that when foxes come out in spring, it is a sign of great fortune.
Among those finally admitted, Yongkang County had the most foxes, Wushang County had the least, and Wuning County was only second.
Almost all the foxes that could come to Wuning County have come. Those that are really tied up can only wait until next year.
There were many foxes coming to Yongkang County this time because Gong Mengbi had brought six Yongkang fox cubs back once, which attracted a lot of envious foxes.
Gong Mengbi looked at the new foxes in this class and had the illusion that the Fox Academy was growing stronger and stronger.
But in fact, in a few years, the scale of Fox Courtyard should continue to shrink.
Every year, new foxes gain intelligence and become fox demons, but the number is pitifully low.
However, Gong Mengbi's goal was not to expand the Fox Courtyard, but to make it smaller. Wild foxes all over the world can be educated, and even newly enlightened foxes can be guided by those who have come before them.
At that time, the Fox Academy could retire from its post. Education flourished, and all foxes could study, without distinction of high or low.
The second day of February.
The blue dragon rises and a dragon is seen in the field.
The intersection of yin and yang creates all living things.
Listening to the silent thunder of fate in the night, Gong Mengbi smiled in Shouyue Tower and said, "The time has come."
He placed the small golden furnace in front of him, and his magic power was circulated to the extreme. Three long tails appeared behind him, and the moon phases appeared faintly behind his head.
He took a sip of Guanghan Feixian Wine, then spit out a mouthful of magic power onto the small golden furnace, which spread like smoke and lifted up the small golden furnace.
Smoke and mist swirled in the small golden furnace, and a sword embryo flew out from it.
The fire in his heart was turning, and Gong Mengbi practiced the Flying Dragon Sword Technique. Taking advantage of the moment when the Seven Azure Dragons raised their heads and yin and yang intersected, he guided the power of the Seven Azure Dragons into the sword embryo.
The first to return to its position is Xinsu, followed by Jixing. With the help of Feilong Sword Technique, they comprehended the power of Canglong, and Tongtian Method borrowed the divine will of Canglong in the sky, with the support of Xinsu and Jisu.
But in just a moment, the sword embryo seemed to come alive, shaking its head and tail, circling around Gong Mengbi like a blue dragon.
Gong Mengbi exhaled and said, "Yes!"
The sword embryo fell into his hand like a swimming dragon, and turned into a small sword that was almost transparent with only a strand of green.
Gong Mengbi slowly calmed his mind, and all his magic power had been exhausted.
If he had not drunk the Guanghan Feixian Wine beforehand, he would have collapsed from exhaustion by now.
But all the waiting and efforts were worth it, and the Blue Dragon Light Sword was finally forged.
Since he acquired the Flying Dragon Sword Technique and comprehended the meaning of the Azure Dragon, Gong Mengbi has already planned how to refine his own flying sword.
After obtaining the spiritual materials for sword-making from the Sky Fox Academy's treasury, he gradually used his inner fire to refine them into the sword embryo in the small golden furnace. Day and night, he forged it with the Flying Dragon Sword Technique, his inner fire always burning.
After hibernating for a whole winter, it was finally refined on the day when the blue dragon raises its head.
Gong Mengbi took the Canglong Youguang Sword into his body and used his magic power to nourish it from time to time. Feeling the sword energy of the Canglong Youguang Sword, his heart suddenly felt much more at peace.
Now, personal safety is more guaranteed. When the force is insufficient, Gong Mengbi is somewhat uneasy.
