Chapter 27: Idiot Xiao Qi
Three graceful figures appeared and disappeared in the forest, followed by a human figure.
"Human smell!" The Yaksha ghost suddenly shouted and looked into the forest.
The three sisters from Meiren Ridge came over gracefully, bringing with them a gust of fragrant wind that made the Yaksha ghost sneeze several times.
Gong Mengbi asked Yakshagui to change his seat to a position that was upwind.
Several monsters stared at the three sisters from Meiren Ridge. The three sisters had no choice but to move aside. A boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old came out from behind them. He was wearing silk clothes and a hair crown made of gold wire. He looked very delicate.
But the young man's eyes were dull, without any divine light. He was clearly a handsome young man, but he had a pair of eyes like a blind man.
"fox!"
When the young man saw Gong Mengbi, he shouted and rushed towards him with his hands raised.
Qiongfang couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so she rolled up her sleeves and a purple silk ribbon flew out, covering the boy's mouth, wrapping around his waist, and hanging him on a tree branch.
Gong Mengbi shook his head helplessly: "Miss Qiongfang, you have given me a great gift. But this silly boy can't eat or play with it, which makes me a little troublesome."
In the distance, the fox-brother was startled. He didn't hear what they said clearly, so he shook the mandrill-brother and said, "Are they going to hang someone up and eat them?"
Senior Brother Mandrill couldn't hear it clearly, but although the evil spirit here was mixed with ghost spirit, it had a unique fairy spirit, and didn't look like a man-eating demon.
"Let's go straight there."
Senior Brother Mandrill led Junior Brother Fox and showed up directly, walking towards Shouyue Tower.
"Huh?" Gong Mengbi and Grandma Shi were both a little confused.
Gong Mengbi asked, "Where did you two come from? How did you end up here?"
Brother Mandrill and Brother Fox were startled when they came face to face with Gong Mengbi. The fox demon in front of them had a beautiful appearance, and its pair of green eyes seemed like a bottomless abyss that could suck people's souls in.
A soft red tail behind it was flowing with silver light, as if it was loved by the bright moon.
Junior Brother Fox was a little scared and shrank behind Senior Brother Mandrill.
Senior Brother Mandrill was an eighth-rank cultivator after all, and he wasn't fooled by Gong Mengbi. He bowed and said, "I'm a mountain monster from out of town. My home was taken over by a group of strong men, so I had to try my luck in Longpan Mountain. This is my little brother, Gray Fox."
The mandrill grabbed the fox brother by the scruff of the neck and held him in front of him. The pointy-faced gray fox then bowed and said, "We saw you seniors coming up the mountain from the foot of the mountain, so we followed you. We didn't realize you were hosting a banquet, so we apologize for disturbing you."
A hint of a smile flickered in Gong Mengbi's green eyes, then disappeared in his pupils.
He invited, "Since you're here, it must be fate. Please sit down and have a drink with us."
He kicked the drooling little fat fox with his toes and said, "Go, spread another mat."
The little fat fox struggled to take his eyes off the roast chicken and quickly went to help the mandrill and the gray fox find seats.
After settling it down, he ran over again and shook Gong Mengbi's leg: "Can I eat now? Can I eat now?"
Granny Shi held it in her arms and tapped its head.
Gong Mengbi had not forgotten his business yet, and asked the three sisters from Meirenling, "Ladies, where did this silly boy come from?"
The silly boy hanging on the tree was swinging like a worm, but he didn't feel afraid at all. Instead, he seemed to be enjoying it.
Qiongfang felt a headache, so Zhiruo had to explain on her behalf: "During the day, a group of people came to Meiren Ridge to appreciate the peach blossoms. They took this idiot wandering around in the peach forest, and when they left, they left him alone in the mountains."
"When we sisters went out at night, this idiot was sleeping under a tree. When he woke up, he called out to us, saying he was hungry. We had no choice. If we left him alone in Beauty Ridge, he might be taken away by wolves, so we had to bring him here and ask everyone to think of a way. If all else fails, please feed him a bite to eat so he doesn't starve to death in my place."
As we all know, ghosts don't eat, so there is nothing to eat in Meirenling.
The Yaksha ghost snorted and said, "Leave it to me. I'll throw him to the village at the foot of the mountain tomorrow. I can't let him stay here."
Gong Mengbi waved his hand, and the idiot fell from the tree. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Gong Mengbi saw him squirming on the ground, looking more like a bug.
Qiongfang retracted the silk ribbon, and the idiot finally broke free and collapsed on the ground, writing in large letters: "I'm hungry, Xiao Qi is hungry."
Gong Mengbi took a plate of roast chicken under the heartbroken gaze of the little fat fox and placed it in front of the silly boy: "Eat it if you are hungry."
The idiot turned over and stood up, holding the plate and following Gong Mengbi, staring at his tail without even moving his eyes.
Gong Mengbi pressed him down on the seat next to him, watching him eat the chicken politely. He observed him carefully and easily found the difference.
"This idiot has lost his soul and is as delirious as a child," Gong Mengbi said. "Judging from his clothes and behavior, his family is not poor. As Miss Zhiruo said, he was deliberately abandoned."
The Yaksha ghost said, "That's not going to work. If you can't survive on your own, you'll die if you throw it into a crowd of people."
At this time, many people can't even feed themselves, let alone support a fool. Even his own family doesn't want him, how can others want him?
Gong Mengbi said, "I'll think of a way. At the very least, I can find a way for him to survive."
The silly Xiao Qi ate with relish and without making any noise.
Gong Mengbi was about to start the banquet when he suddenly called out to the woods, "Jin Chan, stop looking! They're all waiting for you."
Jin Chan was annoyed that he had exposed his whereabouts, but he still walked over angrily.
He glared at Gong Mengbi and said, "You've only been at Wuhuan Peak for a month, and you're already feasting. I want to see what you're doing!"
Gong Mengbi has already figured out the Golden Toad's tricks.
He sent an invitation to Jin Chan, but Jin Chan ignored it, so he put the invitation by the Mirror Pond.
But if all his colleagues around him came to the banquet and he didn't come, wouldn't he get a bad reputation in the eyes of everyone?
Therefore, Jin Chan must come, even if it is to see whether Gong Mengbi is planning to murder him.
Gong Mengbi didn't argue with him. He just laughed and raised his glass: "Today is the opening banquet of my Shouyue Tower. I'm new here, so I'll need your kind support from now on."
"Yes."
Gong Mengbi drank a glass of wine, and all the demons, monks who turned into monsters, the idiot Xiao Qi, and even the little fat fox raised their glasses and drank with Gong Mengbi.
Jin Chan didn't want to drink at first, but Quexian poked his butt and Wangxiang looked at him with his ruby-like eyes, so he reluctantly picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
The wine in this cup is moon dew. It may be cold, but it is a treasure that can concentrate the mind and energy. Gong Mengbi was willing to spend a lot of money on the banquet at his mansion, and the moon dew he used was indeed a generous amount.
All the people and ghosts in the field shuddered, then smiled at each other, and the atmosphere became lively.
