Chapter 750: Burning Incense and Complaining
First of all, from the perspective of appearance, there is no comparison. Foxes are not valued for their beauty, but outstanding appearance is indeed a blessing from heaven. If you practice the Purple Immortal Technique, your good looks will naturally put you far ahead of others.
Secondly, judging from the grandeur, he controls five powerful ghosts and gods, who can change the course of mountains and forests and shift the shape of water and soil with a flick of his hand.
This made the fox think, "It turns out that fox spirits can be like this." Besides being chased by people, they can also be so powerful.
Mustering up the courage to walk up to Gong Mengbi, the fox's heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he could only force himself to calm down: "This matter is caused by me. I was careless and lost the big picture because of a small thing. I attracted the young master of the Zhang family, which led to the loss of the fox book. It has nothing to do with Master Miao."
"What nonsense! You were following my orders to buy medicine. The elders are here. How can I put the blame on a little fox like you?"
Miao Hu would scold him, but the boy would show his stubbornness and refusal to accept.
Gong Mengbi waved his hand and said, "Now is not the time to ask for accusations. I just want to ask what happened that day."
"You say it." Gong Mengbi looked at the fox.
The fox then told the whole story in detail, but because he didn't know which information was needed and which was not, he told it in a very detailed manner.
It begins with the autumn heat sweltering the foxes in the fox mansion. Miao Hu, worried about their heat damage, sends him to Xia Pi City to buy medicine. It ends with the Zhang family's young master and two warrior servants, having waited in vain for the fox spirit, finally planning to return home. As they head to the woods to retrieve their horses, the fox, having regained consciousness after a long hibernation, seizes the opportunity and whisks away the medicine they've bought.
This was the whole process of him running into the young master of the Zhang family. Later on, it developed into the young master of the Zhang family being persistent, and finally mistakenly entering Chengyang Manor and stealing the fox book.
Gong Mengbi had only one point of doubt. He asked, "When you came back that day and startled the horse, didn't you notice that the young master of the Zhang family was riding away?"
Fox recalled carefully and said, "I was carrying medicine on my back at the time. I was anxious to go home, and the weather was hot, so I was upset. Therefore, I didn't investigate carefully, and that's why this mess happened. If Fox wants to punish me, then punish me!"
"Why are you taking the blame again?" Gong Mengbi laughed a few times and said, "Don't be so nervous. I'm here to help, not to hold you accountable."
Gong Mengbi had already heard what he wanted, and this little fox was not capable of lying in front of him.
Gong Mengbi looked at Miaohuhui and winked at him.
"Everyone, go away. Don't worry. This is Gong Huzheng of Dongyang County, Mr. Mingfu of Tianhuyuan. He will help us. Everyone, go away."
The foxes walked away in twos and threes, looking back as they went, obviously unable to help but feel worried.
Miao Hu would ask Gong Mengbi: "Gong Huzheng, what should we do next?"
Gong Mengbi said, "The person who tied the bell must untie it. Whoever goes to Jingta Temple to offer the fox book, whoever goes to take it back."
Miao Huhui was slightly surprised and asked, "Then let's go to Zhang's house?"
Gong Mengbi smiled a nonchalant yet eccentric smile and said, "I'll teach you."
The Five Ghost Gods have completed the transformation of Fox Courtyard in Xia Pi. They have reorganized the formation of Fox Courtyard using the Five Elements Escape Method. Mr. Huang gathered sand into silk and turned it into a Five Spirit Formation Diagram.
The five ghosts and gods transformed into strong servants, and Mr. Huang presented the battle formation diagram.
Gong Mengbi took a look and praised: "Great skill without any effort, great craftsmanship."
The abilities of the Five Ghost Gods are not limited to this. With the help of Gong Mengbi's magic power, it would not be difficult for them to turn Fox Courtyard into a Taoist temple for earthly immortals, but this would be meaningless to the Miao Fox Society.
Therefore, they discarded the elements of showmanship and modified the battle formation according to the current situation of Miao Fox Association and Xia Pi Fox Academy. Subsequent maintenance does not require a large investment, and as long as you pay attention, you can maintain it for a long time.
Miao Huhui took the formation diagram and was so excited that he didn't know how to thank Mingfu Huzheng. Shao Huzheng beside him saw the intention behind the formation diagram and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Why don't you thank Mingfu Huzheng?"
Miao Huhui quickly expressed his gratitude to Gong Mengbi and the Five Ghost Gods, and they all accepted it calmly.
After packing up the formation map, Miao Huhui led them to Xia Pi City at Gong Mengbi's request.
Xia Pi City is an ancient city, and the city walls bear the marks of time.
Miao Huhui led the way and pointed out the Zhang family mansion to Gong Mengbi. The buildings were connected, and it indeed had the aura of a prominent family.
Gong Mengbi looked at him from a distance, his eyes twinkling slightly, and said, "Let's go."
We then went to the City God Temple, where we could see from afar the tall and imposing screen wall, carved with patterns of people putting on shoes and gods bestowing books.
Gong Mengbi said, "Let's go."
Gong Mengbi was the first to enter the City God Temple. The temple keeper saw a fox coming in, but he couldn't see it at all.
Miao Huhui went to get some incense, glanced at Gong Mengbi, and seeing him nod, he lit the incense in the main hall of the City God Temple and burned a petition on the spot.
The Taoist was startled awake by the sight of the fire and shouted, "What are you burning?"
Only then did he see the Miao fox reveal its tail, and he couldn't help but jump in his heart: "Where did this fox spirit come from, daring to act rashly in the City God Temple?"
Miao Huhui revealed his celestial robe, revealing his identity as a fox fairy, and said, "I am Miao Keji, a ninth-rank fox fairy of the Heavenly Fox Academy in Taishan Prefecture, and the dean of the Xia Pi Fox Association and the Xia Pi Fox Academy. I have come to file a complaint!"
The Taoist was surprised and asked, "Who are you suing?"
"I'm suing Zhang Chengzu, the young man from the Zhang family in Xia Pi, for breaking into the fox courtyard and seizing the fox book, committing the crime of robbery!"
"Zhang Chengzu, the young man from the Zhang family?" The Taoist's brows twitched, then he smiled and said, "Since the Miao Hu Society has already submitted the petition, we can just wait for the City God to summon us."
"But if the Miaohu Society has any grievances, they should first report them to the temple keeper. Only through the temple keeper can it be reported to the City God. What you are doing is not appropriate."
"So there is such a rule. Now that I know about it, I will write a petition and hand it over to the temple priest."
"No need, Miao Hu will remember it next time."
Miao Huhui bowed and said, "Then I will wait for the City God to summon me."
The Taoist watched Miao Huhui leave, as if he had never seen Gong Mengbi from beginning to end.
After leaving the City God Temple, Miao Huhui felt uneasy. He looked at Gong Mengbi and asked, "Will this really work?"
"The City God is a local deity. If you have any grievances, you should naturally appeal to him. You are the fox fairy of Mount Tai, so he will definitely take action."
"I wonder if this City God can handle matters impartially."
"Don't worry, I'm here, just wait patiently."
