Candle Dragon to the left

Chapter 3 3. Fox Present
Time passed, and in a blink of an eye it was evening.

The clouds are rolling with golden orange color, and the setting sun reflects the towering mountains in the distance. At this moment, thousands of miles of green mountains have turned into a magnificent crimson.

Reflecting the afterglow, the river flows quietly by the village.

The free-range chickens and ducks also returned home, waiting for nightfall.

On the riverside, someone yelled that they cast their fishing nets every morning and put them away in the evening to check the harvest.With the light of fireworks at dusk, the big net in the river is gradually closing.

"Chu Er, the net here is broken!" Someone shouted.

The fishing net in his hand was in tatters, as if it had been smashed head-on by some kind of giant.

"I'm broken here too!" Chu Er shouted at the other end, and after thinking for a while, he added, "It's like a big fish was caught and hit a big hole!"

Big fish, they have been fishing in this river for decades, how have they seen any big fish?The villagers held the broken fishing nets and murmured in their hearts.He turned over and checked the fishing net. The broken edge of the net was stretched to be very thin and long. How big a fish can make such a big hole in the net.

Just as the villager was deep in thought, someone suddenly tapped him on the shoulder.

"Huh?" He turned his head, but was taken away by a dazzle of white.

The plump woman in white stared at him timidly, her eyebrows and eyes were full of seductive affection.The orange-red light at dusk shone obliquely on the woman's body, losing the alienation of her beautiful face and adding a worldly atmosphere.

The villagers who have lived in Dashan for decades have never seen such a beauty before, and they are stared at by the woman in a daze, motionless.

When the beauty spoke, her voice was also timid.

"Excuse me, brother, is he here this morning?"

"Big sister, you..." The villagers scratched their heads in embarrassment, "Can you be more specific, and tell me which family's bastard you are from? Did you get bullied? Brother, I will definitely ask the villagers to seek justice for you!"

It's really crazy, there is such a beautiful girl in the family and a man who goes out to make trouble?The villagers dare to guarantee that there is no one who is more beautiful than the girl in front of this mountain in a radius of tens of miles.

The woman did not speak. She saw the broken fishing net in the hands of the villagers, and a flash of understanding flashed in her eyes.

"Dare to ask brother, from which direction did the fishing net break?"

"Let me see, the cave is heading south."

"Ham, it's strange to say that this good net is broken..." The villagers wanted to continue talking, but suddenly it was dark in front of them, and when they looked at it calmly, the dusk had already passed, and the night sky was full of stars.He was still holding the broken fishing net in his hand, and his body movements were the same as before, without any change, that is to say, he didn't look back at all!
In the dark mountains and fields, the lights in the village gradually come on.

How can there be a woman here?

"Chu Da, why are you in a daze?" Chu Er's voice sounded from beside him, and when he saw something was wrong, he ran to take a look.

Chu Da didn't respond, like a sculpture.

Recalling the scene just now, the woman's appearance became more and more blurred, and his whole body was hairy.

…………

Deep in the green hills, an island in the middle of the lake.

The lake is silent, and its surface is like a mirror, reflecting the stars in the sky.

A petite white shadow stepped out of the mountain and stepped onto the lake. It turned out to be a fox. It stepped on the lake, and the soles of its feet were covered with thin ice, so it did not land in the water.

The white fox felt the terrifying mountain-like aura in the center of the lake, and knew that he had finally found it.

It walked across the lake and came to the island.

There are towering giant trees growing here, with branches and leaves stretching to cover the sky and the sun. When the fox walks to the bottom of the tree and looks up, the Milky Way seems to hang on the branches and leaves of the ancient trees.It can't hear any sound, no matter how quiet the mountain forest is, there are faint insects and birdsong, but it's hard to notice, but it stands here, and all the sounds disappear, it seems that the closer it is to that person, the farther the world is from it.

This kind of tree looks like a camphor tree, with a tall tree shape and twisted dragon and snake-like lines on the trunk.

Dark and silent.

But thunderous roars rang above its head, the scales rubbed against the trunk, causing the ancient trees to tremble, and occasionally leaves fell off, with marks like a knife scraping on the leaves.

The long breath brushed the fox's hair, not the fishy smell it imagined, but a strange and strange fragrance.

Two bright yellow lanterns lit up in the deep darkness, illuminating the layers of scales entrenched on the ancient wood.Even though he knew what he was going to face, the fox couldn't help but back away when he really stood with it.

Li Xi'an looked at the little fox in front of him.

From the time the fox appeared on the hillside by the lake, it had noticed that it was not surprised by the arrival of the other party, but rather it had a sense of premonition in its heart.Especially the opponent's strange ability to step across the lake, should it be said that the variables have finally begun?
It waits for the fox to speak, and since the other party has come to find it, it must be sure. If it cannot communicate, all these efforts will be in vain and meaningless to the fox.

The fox seemed to know what Li Xi'an was thinking, and a hazy white light rose from his body.

A plump woman in white appeared on the spot.

Transformation?Li Xi'an frowned, somewhat puzzled.The golden pupils gleamed through the glow, and found that the woman was just a phantom, and the fox itself had not changed in any way.It's just a simple illusion.

The woman bowed down.

"Master of Taihang Mountain, this concubine dared to use some tricks, I hope you don't blame me."

With similar titles again, Li Xi'an remained silent, whether it is the owner of Taihang Mountain or the mountain god, there is no difference in essence.In the past, it was only considered a misunderstanding when humans called mountain gods. After all, it was not uncommon for people to worship some magical things as river gods when they read strange novels when they were still humans.

But the psychic fox in front of him called it that too.

It can't help but contemplate.

"Can you go to the north of Taihang?" the white fox asked.

Li Xi'an looked down at it, quietly waiting for the next word.

"There's a tiger rising up there."

It heard what the fox meant, and wanted it to go to Beishan to prevent the tiger from rising.

The big red snake circled around, motionless.

This is a natural choice, and Li Xi'an believes that he has no right to interfere.How big is Taihang Mountain, and it has lived in it for more than 200 years without knowing it, but simply found a good place to circle it.How many creatures exist in it? Li Xi'an is called the god of Taihang Mountain, but he doesn't think he can be the god of this ancient mountain range at all.Even if other creatures here become inexplicably powerful like it, it is the choice of this world and this mountain.

What's more... the candle-like pupils glanced at the fox.

Rising creatures?It heard the name of the fox, how could there be only one of this thing, that fierce tiger might just be walking at the front of the road, and the fox in front of it was not one of them.Could it be that one of them appeared in the Taihang Mountains, and it went to kill one?
Be in awe of nature.

This is what Li Xi'an has learned from being a big snake for more than 200 years.

Seeing that the big snake didn't respond, the woman lowered her head even lower.

"That ferocious tiger is about to be born and slaughter all humans in sight. I hope you can save her..."

save her...

The big snake swam, its slender neck was the first to fall from the shadow of the ancient tree, the bloody jade-like scales opened and closed sequentially from front to back following Li Xi'an's breath, the fox felt that it was enveloped by the roaring sound of metal, and there were The silhouette of a big snake cruising.

The candle flickered and finally stopped at a high place where the fox could see.

The big snake looked down at it, its face was covered with hard bony protrusions, as if covered with a red copper mask.

This face does not look like a snake, but more like a legendary ghost.

The fox shivered violently.

A fierce tiger was born to slaughter people, Li Xi'an really couldn't sit idly by.The massacre of innocent people is one thing, and the rise of living beings is another. Under the changing times, the torrent of steel cannot be resisted by a simple body of flesh and blood.Don't make a big mess, by then, it will have to leave its homeland of 200 years.

lead the way.

The fox understood the word from the snake's eyes.
