Chapter 255: Who told you to steal the chicken?
Wen Yu's eyes flickered, and he raised his eyebrows hesitantly.
There must be something strange about this.
She destroyed the immortal tree in his Zhuying Palace. He had not pursued the matter at Duanyunbian earlier, but now he followed her here. Could it be because of this matter?
Wen Yu's heart was beating fast, but she still couldn't figure out the reason. She looked at the handsome, tall, but slightly lonely figure again with a skeptical attitude.
At worst, she could wait until she had dealt with the matter of Gouwu Mountain in Zhongzhou and then apologize to him in person.
It’s more important to solve the current problem first.
"Emperor..." Wen Yu chose his words carefully and spoke hesitantly.
But at the same time, before she could finish her words, another voice sounded.
"Uncle! Uncle!" Chen Zhizhi pushed Fox's hand away, ran forward in three or two steps and pounced in front of Taihao, "Uncle, please spare his life!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was silence all around.
Wen Yu opened her mouth slightly, her eyes wandering back and forth between Chen Zhizhi and Tai Hao inexplicably, and finally looked at Yu Chang beside her with great confusion.
Yu Chang lowered his eyes and shook his head at Wen Yu with a hint of joking.
He was also unaware of the current situation.
Although Dan Qing still maintained his original form of the Azure Dragon, it was obvious from his wide-open eyes and wildly flying dragon whiskers that he was terribly frightened.
He had only been asleep for a while, but when he woke up, the Emperor suddenly appeared out of nowhere... a half-human, half-demon...
Everyone had their own thoughts, but their eyes were looking forward in unison.
Taihao, who was in the center of vision, rarely showed a trace of surprise on his usually unchanged expression. He stopped and looked down at Chen Zhizhi.
The myriad icicles naturally stopped as well, flickering slightly in the air, like fully drawn arrows in a bow, ready to shoot their prey at any moment.
Seeing that he had no reaction, Chen Zhizhi gritted his teeth and continued to call out, "Uncle——"
The confusion between Taihao's brows became even more pronounced, but he did not show it too much. He just looked at the young Taoist priest in front of him silently.
Chen Zhizhi.
"Who are you calling?" Tai Hao frowned and seemed to struggle for a long time before he confirmed.
Is it him...?
As soon as he spoke, Chen Zhizhi's eyes lit up.
As long as my uncle is willing to respond, there is still a possibility of turning the situation around.
Chen Zhizhi was quick to respond, "Isn't it you, uncle?"
In fact, she had some feelings and guesses since the immortal king appeared just now. It was the appearance of this immortal king and Lord Yu Chang's address to her aunt that made her doubly confirm her aunt's identity.
Since my aunt's identity has been confirmed, we have already recognized each other.
So, working backwards...
Her mother and father had told her that when her aunt lived in Jiangyang Prefecture, she often stayed with this "Master Song", going out together, eating and living together.
Then if he is not my uncle, then what is he?
After some thought, Chen Zhizhi nodded seriously and continued to look up at Taihao.
A pair of eyes that are clear and transparent, without any distractions.
Tai Hao hesitated, and looked away quietly at Wen Yujun behind him.
Why doesn't she speak...
The name of this trail is obviously inappropriate.
Wen Yu, who was completely unaware, didn't think that Chen Zhizhi's address to Taihao had anything to do with her. She just waited for Taihao's next words calmly with an indifferent look.
"Uncle..." Seeing that he didn't refute her, Chen Zhizhi mustered up the courage to continue begging, "Uncle, please spare his life?"
Chen Zhizhi kept talking, but Wen Yujun remained silent.
After a moment of silence, Tai Hao withdrew his gaze and no longer placed his hopes on Wen Yujun. In the end, he was unable to escape Chen Zhizhi's attack.
Tai Hao waved his sleeves and did not answer Chen Zhizhi directly.
The fox's hair stood on end, and its round eyes kept staring at Taihao, never daring to relax, as if it was afraid that he would let the ice crystals poke eighteen thousand holes in him in a moment of thought.
Seeing that he didn't take the next step, the fox finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But Taihao glanced at it and turned away at the same time -
The countless icicles immediately turned into flowing water, like a torrential rain, pouring down directly on the fox's head, soaking him thoroughly in the true sense of the word.
"You--" The originally fluffy fur on the fox's body was now mixed with water stains and condensed into wisps, and its ears and tail were drooping.
Tai Hao turned his head upon hearing this and was facing the fox.
The latter fell silent immediately and didn't say another word.
"Thank you, uncle, for your mercy, for your mercy."
Seeing this, Chen Zhizhi chuckled twice and hurriedly ran back to stop the fox, fearing that he would talk nonsense again.
The fox, having learned from his mistakes, now clearly understood what silence is golden, so he lowered his head angrily and only held his wet tail to show Chen Zhizhi.
Tai Hao walked aside and stopped getting involved.
Wen Yu, who had seen enough of the show, breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged glances with Yu Chang beside him, and then walked forward.
Foxes are naturally charming, and now that they are soaked and their ears are drooping, they look even more beautiful and charming.
Wen Yu straightened the corners of his lips, trying hard to suppress his smile. He raised his sleeves to mobilize his spiritual power to heal his wounds and dry his wet hair at the same time.
The fox seemed to be much more obedient. It huddled beside Chen Zhizhi's shoulder without saying a word, and didn't even look at Wen Yu.
"What other tricks do you have? Why not use them all?" Wen Yu slowed down his voice and asked seriously.
Upon hearing this, the fox turned towards Chen Zhizhi, but did not look up at Wen Yu.
"Auntie..." Seeing him like this, Chen Zhizhi couldn't help but support him in front of his aunt.
Wen Yu understood what was going on and was neither anxious nor annoyed.
After she calmed Zhizhi down, she patiently said to the fox, "Can you calm down and talk now?"
After that, Wen Yu repeated the questions he had asked earlier, "What's your name? Where is your cave? What school or sect did you follow? Are your parents and relatives here?"
The fox hugged its dry, warm tail, and seemed to immediately recall how soaked it had been. After a shiver, it hummed reluctantly, "My name, cave abode, parents, and family are not something you can casually inquire about."
After saying this, as if he was afraid of angering Wen Yu, he made up for it casually: "Although you are an immortal, you have people helping you."
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows slightly, knowing exactly what he meant, but she didn't interrupt him and let him continue.
The fox quietly glanced at Yu Chang and Tai Hao, who were standing beside Wen Yu, as well as the Azure Dragon, who looked quite impressive. He muttered, "If I hadn't come out alone, I might not have lost."
Hearing what he said, Wen Yu nodded in agreement, "That's right, so... where are you from?"
"My family is not a small family." The fox was still feeling aggrieved and grumbling, "If I tell you, I'm afraid I'll scare you to death."
I'm afraid she will kneel on the ground and beg him for mercy.
Thinking of this, the fox's face, which was originally a mixture of green and red, suddenly brightened, and the smile on his lips could no longer be hidden.
Wen Yu, who had not been particularly curious at first, now became interested. "Oh? Really?"
Yu Chang, who followed, happened to stand beside Wen Yu, and spoke slowly and calmly -
"The Fox Clan has the youngest son of the Su family, so they are naturally not a small family."
Wen Yu raised her eyebrows and turned her head to confirm with Yu Chang.
"Do you know me?" The fox's skeptical expression perfectly illustrates what suspicion means.
Yu Chang nodded slightly with Wen Yu. His eyes flickered as he stared directly at the half-human, half-fox white fox in front of him. He said with certainty, "The fox clan has the youngest son of the Su family, Su Jianbai."
"Is it and isn't it?" Wen Yu immediately understood and asked.
It turned out that Yu Chang had known the fox's origins from the beginning, but was just waiting for him to admit it himself. Now that he had repeatedly refused to speak, Yu Chang simply revealed his identity.
Faced with Wen Yu's inquiry, Su Jianbai couldn't help but tremble three times.
This woman who puts force before courtesy, that so-called Emperor soaked him to the skin, and now she comes to dry him off...
But his tail was still pinned by the sharp tip.
"Since you know me, why don't you let me go immediately!" Su Jianbai thought for a long time and said angrily with his neck stiff.
"So your name is—" Chen Zhizhi seemed to have heard this for the first time and asked in surprise, "Su Jianbai?"
Su Jianbai, who was originally arrogant, immediately lost his temper after Chen Zhizhi said this, and stammered, "Hmm..."
This is to acknowledge his identity, but——
Wen Yu's eyes moved back and forth between Chen Zhizhi and Su Jianbai. She seemed to sense something unusual.
"Okay, just tell me the truth." Wen Yu ignored Su Jianbai's boastful words. She had something more serious to ask, "Why did you trick Zhizhi into this cave earlier, causing her to lose her way?"
For some reason, as soon as Wen Yu said this, Su Jianbai and Chen Zhizhi, who were originally sticking together, immediately jumped to the sides and separated them by a long distance.
"That's because she held me tightly." Su Jianbai's voice became smaller and smaller, and he didn't dare to look at Chen Zhizhi. "I was just protecting myself, hiss--"
The violent movement caused the wound on his tail, which had just healed, to be torn and hurt again.
Chen Zhizhi suddenly turned around and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
But as soon as the words came out, the two of them quickly walked away.
"My tail is almost bald..." Su Jianbai hugged his tail. The fox fur that was once shiny and smooth has now become dry and frizzy. "This is the most beautiful part of my body."
Wen Yu felt a lump in her throat and was unable to speak. She glanced helplessly at the slightly messy fox fur, which was simply because she was a little careless when drying it.
He raised his sleeve and stretched out his hand, and a steady stream of green light gushed out from Wen Yu's palm. The moment it brushed across Su Jianbai's hair, it immediately became fluffy, soft and shiny.
Just compensate him.
The magical changes appeared before his eyes, and Su Jianbai's fox eyes suddenly widened into a round shape, "Wow——"
But the sound of "wow" was very short and he swallowed it back into his stomach.
Wen Yu pursed her lips, suppressing the smile that she could hardly suppress.
Yu Chang, who had been paying attention to Wen Yu, also slightly curved his lips at this moment.
This trip to this world is well worth it.
Wen Yu finally felt a little happier than when she was on duty at the Wangsheng Inn.
Further behind, Tai Hao and Dan Qing stood side by side, silent and motionless, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
He is always in the world, yet always outside of it.
In the strange silence, Su Jianbai blinked and looked at Wen Yu. After a long while, he slowly said, "Okay, let me tell you..."
Wen Yu and Yu Chang looked at each other, and after struggling for a long time, they finally got to the point.
"But since you know my name, you should switch with me..." But in a blink of an eye, Su Jianbai kept the secret.
Not wanting to dwell on this matter for too long, Wen Yu answered without hesitation: "Spring Temple, Wen Yu."
Although Yu Chang was reluctant, he did not want to interfere with Wen Yu's work, so he said in a deep voice: "Yu Chang, by the Yuan River."
After the two of them finished speaking, Su Jianbai didn't show any intention of responding.
Wen Yu glanced at Su Jianbai, then understood what he meant and turned sideways to look at the two people behind him.
"Taihao." Unexpectedly, Taihao was extremely cooperative.
"Me?" The big green dragon pointed at itself with its tail, and then immediately turned into a human form.
Unlike his tall and majestic original form, his human form is quite cute, and his blue-green fur makes him look particularly pure. "I am the companion beast of Emperor Taihao of Zhuoying Palace, Danqing!"
Dan Qing leaned towards Taihao, as if to say that it was Emperor Taihao who was next to him.
After a round of self-introductions, Su Jianbai was finally generally satisfied. After coughing a few times, he slowly said, "Recently, all kinds of demons and monsters have been flocking to Gouwu Mountain in Zhongzhou. I'm sure you've heard about it."
"I just came here to try my luck and gain some experience." Su Jianbai frowned and glanced at Chen Zhizhi beside him. "Who knew she would keep grabbing me?"
"Who told you to steal the chicken?" Chen Zhizhi suddenly got angry and retorted unwillingly.
"It's just a chicken!" Su Jianbai retorted immediately, as if he had heard something out of the blue. "What's the big deal?"
"One?" Chen Zhizhi was too lazy to expose it.
