Chapter 146 Anecdotes

The crescent moon hangs on the treetops, and the shadows of the trees dance...

"Almost done, let's go home..." Mu Xiliang's eyes were red with a trace of tears, and his body was soft. Yu Zeying rubbed his fingertips, not yet satisfied, "Ah Xi..."

“Pah—”

Mu Xiliang raised his hand and slapped Yu Zeying, saying coldly, "I'll say it one last time, go home, or you won't be able to do it next time..."

"Okay, let's go home!" Yu Zeying pressed his lips against his neck and kissed him gently, "Go home, can you walk?"

"You carry me..." Mu Xiliang's mind was dizzy, his beautiful and almost enchanting face was slightly red, and his foxy eyes were misty. Yu Zeying was born with bad nature, he couldn't help it at all, he just wanted to die on Mu Xiliang, so he held her red lips and rubbed them...

"Yu Er!" Mu Xiliang warned coldly.

Yu Zeying bit his tongue in a hurry, "Okay, go home safely, go home..."

He put on his vest and pants, then half-knelt down, "Come up, wife!"

Mu Xiliang climbed up limply. Yu Zeying held his legs tightly and held them in place, then stood up with his arms folded. The mountain road was rugged and Mu Xiliang was drowsy, and the flashlight in his hand was flickering.

Yu Zeying has been walking this road since he was a child. He can walk home with his eyes closed, and he doesn't need a flashlight at all. "Slow down... I'm not hungry. I ate both bowls of spicy chicken noodles that my aunt brought me this morning... You didn't let me sleep well this morning, so I didn't leave any bowl for you!"

Yu Zeying tilted his head and kissed his jade-like arm, "I know, I saw those two bowls! I deserve it, you should starve me to death! But my wife couldn't bear to let me go hungry, didn't she feed me enough just now?"

Mu Xiliang glanced coldly at the pervert and ignored him, enjoying the tranquility brought by the west wind.

Yu Zeying is tall, with broad shoulders and long legs. Tiny beads of sweat are rolling down his hair like pearls. Mu Xiliang hugs his neck comfortably, "Next time, please leave me a pair of pants. It's too convoluted to always walk on the side roads..."

Yu Zeying felt a little guilty when he thought about the beastly thing he had done, "Did the wind blow you?" Mu Xiliang was wearing clothes and nothing underneath, just wrapped in Yu Zeying's coat.

Mu Xiliang leaned on his broad shoulders and said, "No, I don't want you to be tired..."

Yu Zeying suddenly stopped, turned his head, and stared at her like a vicious wolf, "Ah Xi, say it again..."

"Silly dog, I said I don't want you to be tired..." Mu Xiliang would never say such things before. Firstly, it would be hypocritical, and secondly, Yu Zeying would take advantage of it.

"Ah Xi... Ah Xi..." Yu Zeying's chest rose and fell, and his eyes turned red. Mu Xiliang had never expressed his love. He was always afraid that he could not keep him, but if he could not keep him, how could Mu Xiliang be willing to stay with him in this remote place, so, there is love...

“Pah—”

"Go home and cry. Don't cry here. It's so embarrassing..." Mu Xiliang slapped him on the jaw. He couldn't understand how a grown man could cry like that.

"Okay... Ah Xi, can you say this more often in the future? I don't do beastly things, can you say this more often, okay?" You could say he was humble, but there was a bit of ferocity in his low voice.

Mu Xiliang didn't buy his tricks, "Are you treating me like a three-year-old kid? Even if I tell you, you will only do more beastly things, not less!"

"No..."

Mu Xiliang snorted coldly, "Then why are you so vain?"

"I can only do a little bit..." The voice became weaker...

"Silly..." Mu Xiliang raised his eyes and scanned a dilapidated temple. His eyebrows moved and he asked in a low voice, "What temple is that? Why haven't I seen it before when I walked this road?"

Yu Zeying turned to look over. "It's called the Yayan Temple. It used to be dedicated to the Fox God. Now no one comes to worship, so it's abandoned. The road we walked on is a yin road. The road we walk on during the day is called a yang road. It's normal that we didn't see it."

"The Yin and Yang Road... there are also such roads..." Mu Xiliang was very curious about this anecdote, "What kind of immortal is the Fox Immortal?"

"It is faster to go down the mountain by taking the shady road than by taking the sunny road. The fox fairy is the ancestor of the fox people. I heard from the old people in the village that the fox people are the children of a male fox spirit who transformed into a woman and seduced a man who came to the mountain to cut wood."

Yu Zeying did not believe in ghosts and gods, but he was in awe of them. The temple was very small and strangely built. It did not look like a temple at all. From the outside it looked like a cave, with beams extending out from the four corners of the eaves. The mythical beast on the eaves was a nine-tailed fox.

The more Mu Xiliang listened, the more he became addicted. "A male fox spirit gave birth to a child, which means that the fox people today are all descendants of the male fox spirit. Then this temple was built by the fox people? Who built it? Do you know? How many years have they been building it?"

"Since it's said by the older generation, it's very likely to be false. There were a lot of vendors back then, and the older generation always loved to make up ghost stories to scare us and not let us go out. When I was a child, I went to the temple with Lu Sui and read the inscriptions. It has been repaired for two hundred years. Who repaired it? I don't know, I can't see the name clearly..."

When Yu Zeying grew up, he went to look for the inscription but couldn't find it.

"Two hundred years, isn't that the Qing Dynasty? It's very likely that it was a male fox spirit! Wasn't the Liu family haunted by ghosts some time ago? They kept saying that there were foxes and ghosts calling. It's very likely that this great immortal has come out of the mountains..."

Mu Xiliang was not a gossipy person, but he always liked to listen to more stories about supernatural things. Aunt Zhang happened to have a lot of ghost stories, and Song Huizi was afraid of ghosts and was not in good health. She rarely talked about them, but now that she met Mu Xiliang, she could talk to him all night.

Liang Jingxuan also liked to listen to it, but she was also afraid. When she heard it and felt scared, she would lift up Lu Sui's clothes and crawl in, and come out when she was no longer afraid.

Yu Zeying choked up and laughed, "Auntie Zhang told you about the Liu family again?"

"Well, I talked about the Liu family's eight generations of ancestors..." Mu Xiliang was not exaggerating at all and was very serious.

"This temple was built in your village. It means that the child born by the male fox spirit was born in your village. It was he who built this temple..."

Mu Xiliang used a flashlight to shine on the temple. It was a bit far away, so he couldn't see the characters on the plaque at the temple gate clearly, but they were not Chinese characters, but Manchu characters. His brother-in-law was a Manchu enthusiast and collected some information about Manchu at home.

But he didn't understand what it meant...

Yu Zeying had heard about ghosts and gods many times since he was a child, so he was no longer surprised and just laughed it off.

"It must be fake. How can there be a fox spirit? I have never seen a fox spirit, but I have seen a white fox that always likes to steal the chickens from Ah Sui's house. No matter how my uncle and aunt chased it away, it was useless. They wanted to drug it, but they couldn't bear to think about it because it was a living creature. The fox didn't leave after eating the chicken and stayed at home for a while. It hasn't come since I went to junior high school..."

Mu Xiliang believed it without a doubt after hearing it, "It is very likely the Fox Immortal!"

"Really not! Second uncle said it was just a stupid fox...but it's strange, the fox only let Lu Sui hold it...as soon as Lu Sui touched it, it would open its arms..." Yu Zeying froze, the bright white moonlight making his eyes even more shocked.

"Lift up what?" Mu Xiliang's urging made Yu Zeying come back to his senses suddenly.

"Lift up Lu Sui's clothes and get in... I thought of Xuan Bao, he did the same..."

Mu Xiliang's foxy eyes twitched, "Xuanbao? He doesn't look like a fox spirit, but more like a little sun..."

Yu Zeying chuckled, "He's still a little fool, a glutton, and a crybaby. When he first came, he ran away when he saw me, like a mouse..." When Yu Zeying saw Liang Jingxuan at the train station, he thought he was the illegitimate son of the Army.

He thought this way simply because the Army spoiled him too much. They bought him whatever he wanted, wore the most expensive clothes, and had the best food and toys.

Once, when we went to the town to watch the fireworks, there were too many people, and Liang Jingxuan couldn't see them, so he cried anxiously. Lu Jun squatted down and let him ride on his neck, and watched the fireworks for more than an hour. Lu Jun's hands were not idle either, holding a candied haws in one hand and a Coke with a straw in the other. Liang Jingxuan called him "Second Uncle", and Lu Jun handed him the candied haws.

Such pampering was something neither he nor Lu Sui had ever experienced. It was hard not to suspect that Leung Ching Hsuan was his illegitimate child...

"He ran away when he saw you? Why? Are you too fierce?" Yu Zeying was just a crybaby. Outside, he had a naturally aggressive and majestic look.

"I don't know either. The first thing he said to me was, you have to call me sister-in-law, I'm Lu Sui's wife!" Yu Zeying imitated Liang Jingxuan's tone, but didn't get the essence, but it was funny. Mu Xiliang couldn't help laughing, "Did you call me sister-in-law?"

"How could I possibly do that? I asked my second uncle and found out that it was to protect my mother and those people who came to my house with bad intentions to matchmake for Ah Sui..."

Yu Zeying first heard it from his father, who was taking a shower at the time. He never believed that Lu Jun was the kind of person who loved money so much that he put on his clothes and went to the canteen to make a phone call. He happened to run into Lu Jun buying White Rabbit milk candy for Liang Jingxuan.

When they heard that he was going to inform Lu Sui, the Lu Jun came up and slapped him twice, and warned Ma Qiu not to call him in the future.

When Mu Xiliang raised his eyes, his sharp gaze was colder than the moon frost on the ground.

"Second Uncle... I've heard Aunt Zhang talk about him. I haven't met him much, but I don't think he's a gambler. Even if he is, he's not a gambler at the casino table... He gives me the feeling of the fog on the Yaoyao Mountain, which can be seen clearly at a glance, but also can't be seen clearly..."

"He loved gambling when he was young. Later, after his eldest uncle, Lu Sui's father, passed away, he began to restrain himself a little. In recent years, he has only played mahjong. No matter what the villagers say, I don't believe it. My second uncle is not the kind of person they say..."

Yu Zeying was raised by Lu Jun since he was a child. Lu Jun was very tall at that time and could hold one child in each hand. He could hold him and Lu Sui for a long time and play the game of crashing planes in the yard.

Then something unexpected happened, and he could feel that the Army was treating him very complicatedly.

Underneath the complexity is a pool of black blood...

Four more lives.

He didn't know why his second uncle suddenly disliked him...

He asked his aunt, who said his uncle was in a bad mood and would be fine after a while. He returned home dejected, thinking he would have to wait for a long time, but the army came the next day and brought his favorite maltose.
