"Master Xin, how did you get here? You are such a good person, you can't get there without ascending, how did you get to the sixth floor?"
The fiery red mother fox tilted her head, swinging her big tail like a palm-leaf fan, and asked with her head tilted.
Baili Xin looked down at the furry little foxes, and could not help but bend down and hold the three fox cubs in his arms and stroke them several times. While stroking them, he replied: "This is a long story. I am not dead. I just had something to investigate and accidentally came here."
"I never thought that we would meet again here, in this way."
"How did you get in?"
The fiery red fox scratched its pretty pointed face with its front paws in shame: "You know the situation of my family. My father killed some people with charcoal fire and committed murder. We also understand that we should be punished for our mistakes. He was sentenced to be punished in the Copper Pillar Prison for 300 years."
Dijia frowned slightly: "Avici Hell is the final destination of the punished. How did you get in?"
The fiery red fox tilted its head, confusing Dijia.
The red fox took only a second to retreat two steps, tuck its tail between its legs, and crawl on its front legs. It trembled and replied, "Please forgive me, sir. We sneaked in through the gap."
"We just want to wait here for the child's father to come out. We absolutely don't have any bad intentions."
Baili Xin tilted his head and asked in a pretentious manner, "You know him too?"
The red fox didn't dare to speak at all. Its beautiful red fur trembled in the air, like a blooming red dandelion.
Dijia coughed lightly: "I haven't seen it before, they must have recognized the wrong person."
Several little foxes huddled quietly in Baili Xin's arms, enjoying the long-lost touch.
The three furry tails couldn't help but spread out, and happiness swept back and forth in Baili Xin's arms.
The soft fur was very itchy and fell on Baili Xin's slender neck, making him laugh twice.
Dijia suddenly pursed his lips.
Don't be angry, they are just a few animals.
Baili Xin smiled as he put away the big tails and asked the mother fox, "What kind of gap is this? How did you find it?"
Mother Fox: "Maybe it's because I've been sealed in the painting for too long. I've always been sensitive to tiny gaps in space."
"We were originally waiting for the kids' father outside, but one day we suddenly smelled a scent caused by a crack in the air near the Forgotten River, so I brought the kids in."
"Strangely enough, these gaps just happened to allow us to avoid all the guards, and we were able to enter the sixth floor so easily."
"We still care about the kid's father. It's because of us that the kid's father went astray. He suffered in there, and we suffered outside. So after we came in, we didn't plan to go out. We found a safe place to build a nest here."
"Although we can't bear the punishment from the child's father together, we can always feel calmer when we are in the same space."
Baili Xin: "How long have you been here?"
Red Fox: "It has been more than two hundred years since I entered the underworld, and only a few years since I entered the sixth floor."
Baili Xin and Dijia looked at each other.
"You just reached the gap in space," Baili Xin stroked the soft fur of the little foxes in his arms. Because of the scorching temperature around them, the fur of the little foxes was warm, like a comfortable hand warmer. "Besides the four of you, have you seen anyone else pass through here?"
"Stand up, don't kneel down, it's embarrassing."
The child is still in his arms and the mother is kneeling in front of him. How can this be so unreasonable
At first glance, he looks like a bully who robs good women.
Baili Xin secretly glanced at the culprit.
Dijia tilted his head, Quan didn't know.
The red fox secretly glanced at Dijia, then stood up tremblingly, "If you two adults don't mind, why don't you move to our house? My house is next to the crack."
Several little foxes were moving around. Baili Xin scooped up the three shaky little foxes into his arms and nodded, saying, "Okay, lead the way."
As they moved forward, Baili Xin discovered that the red foxes were moving along the edge of the hill. The rugged and uneven mountains perfectly concealed their figures.
After walking for about ten minutes, the red fox gradually slowed down its pace.
It tilted its head gracefully and glanced at Baili Xin behind it, "Master Baili Xin, follow me."
After saying this, it crashed headfirst into the hard stone wall, and its body instantly disappeared into it.
Baili Xin and Dijia glanced at each other, then followed closely and walked in to the place where the red fox disappeared.
The outside looks like the rocks, but there is a cave inside.
This is a cave of neither too big nor too small. Although it is simple, it has everything you need.
Unlike the overly hot air outside, the air inside is very cool.
The top of the head was decorated with many colorful crystals, which instantly turned the originally dark cave into a dreamy colorful one.
Who would have thought that this beautiful cave was actually located in the underworld.
When Baili Xin looked up at the crystals, a little fox opened its pointed mouth and yawned, chirping, "My lord, these crystals were collected by us from everywhere. It took us a long time to cover the entire cave with them."
“Isn’t it beautiful?”
"When daddy comes back, he will immediately feel the warmth of home. This is the gift we prepared for him."
Baili Xin's eyes flashed with a smile. He reached out and rubbed the little fox's head, praising it from the bottom of his heart: "Very beautiful, really beautiful."
Even if you are in the depths of hell, as long as you have a bright heart, your surroundings will still be a paradise.
Under the colorful glow of the sunset, in the distance there is a straw bed made of thatch, branches and wooden boards. Next to the bed are many toys. Although they are sloppily made, it is not difficult to see the maker's intentions.
There are swings, wooden horses, grass balls and so on.
"These were made by Mama and us together." Another little fox said, "It's fun. Mama is very skillful."
Baili Xin nodded, "It's out, it's really good."
While they were talking, the red fox had already pushed over two small wooden stools.
It looked up at the Bailixin people with some restraint, standing on two legs like a human, with its front paws nervously stirring: "My humble abode is simple, please take a seat, my lords."
This is the best furniture it can offer.
Instead of being rejected as he had feared, Baili Xin smiled and thanked him, then pulled Dijia to sit down. The bench was a little low, and when the two of them sat there, they actually felt a bit like a giant horse and a golden sword.
The little foxes looked at each other, chirped for a while, and suddenly ran out of Baili Xin's arms together.
A moment later, three little foxes came bouncing over, holding a few bunches of crystal clear grapes on lotus leaves.
There were still sparkling water droplets hanging on the grapes, obviously they had just been washed.
"Master Baili Xin, try this. It's so sweet."
Three pairs of round eyes stared at Baili Xin nervously, and their anticipation was almost overflowing from them.
Unable to refuse the kind invitation, Baili Xin picked up a grape and put it into his mouth.
When the thin skin is bitten open, the moist, sweet and fragrant aroma instantly fills the corners of the mouth.
Baili Xin: "It's sweet, I like it very much, thank you."
Hearing Baili Xin's praise, the three little foxes hurriedly and carefully placed the lotus leaves on top, dancing and holding hands, and shouting excitedly, "Baili Xin likes it very much, that's great, so great."
The three little foxes jumped and ran to the toy area and started playing. Their playful hearts had long forgotten the reason for their dancing.
The red fox gave a gentle look to the truly evil children, expressed gratitude to Baili Xin again, then prostrated himself and kowtowed three times to Baili Xin solemnly.
"Lord Baili Xin, please accept my three bows."
"You rescued us and then left us in a hurry. We didn't even have a chance to thank you."
"If it weren't for you, we might still be trapped in the shackles of the Taoist priest in white. Or even worse, we might have become a stepping stone for his conspiracy and never be able to escape."
"Although we are animals, we also know the principle of gratitude."
"After coming here, we have always had a knot in our hearts that we didn't have the chance to see you again. These kids often talk about you. Whenever they find something good, they would suddenly say, 'It would be great if Master Baili Xin was here', 'I really want to share such a good thing with Master Baili Xin'."
"We thought several times that we might not be able to repay the favor by the time we transfer."
"I really didn't expect that I could see you again before I lost my memory."
Baili Xin looked at the mother fox in front of him and the little foxes that suddenly quieted down in the corner, and suddenly felt some emotion in his heart.
When he saved them, it was just for the sake of saving them, and he never thought about asking them to repay him.
It may be just a piece of cake for him, but for others, it may be the only lifeline.
He just helped them a little, but they used their injuries to remember his kindness.
What kind of feeling is this
Somehow, a warm current suddenly surged into Baili Xin's chest. It was not hot or turbulent, but very comfortable and warm.
While he was paying homage to the fox mother, Dijia beside him was also secretly observing Baili Xin.
Beneath his serious expression and calm eyes, his heart was already surging like the sea.
The boiling magma gushed out from his chest, violently invading every inch of his limbs and bones.
The colorful rays of light above his head fell on the young man's hair and face, wrapping him up in it, making him as holy as a god.
He seems to be the favorite of the Creator, good in appearance but even more touching in heart.
Through the conversation with the fox, although he didn't know what Baili Xin did specifically, he knew that the other party must have done something impossible.
Dijia's pair of dark and deep eyes fell on Baili Xin's bright eyes. There seemed to be a black hole hidden in those beautiful eyes, which could easily attract all his attention every time and make him indulge in them.
Unprecedented greed and ambition were roaring wildly in my heart.
Go to him, you must go to him.
You can't miss him. If you miss him, you will regret it forever.
I like him.
When Baili Xin came over, Dijia licked the corner of his dry lips and quietly withdrew his gaze.
Baili Xin: "..."
Strangely, for a moment, he felt like a bone being targeted by a dog.
____________________________
Studio.
Damn, the fox repays a favor, so touching, isn't it? What kind of fairy tale is this, too good, isn't it? Who would have thought that I would actually get the sequel of Xin Shen's previous copy in the underworld copy.
What's going on? I suddenly felt sore in my eyes and wanted to cry. It was like this, why, the people I helped in the past appeared around me one by one, expressing their gratitude and thanks. It was so annoying... Hey, damn, what am I doing, do you understand
I understand. Even if someone helps you casually, you may forget what they did to you. Suddenly, someone appears in front of you and expresses his gratitude to the rescuer in sincere words, which is very touching.
Yes, yes, that’s about what I mean.
Why did I see such a warm scene in the underworld? Is this really an immersive horror game? I was quite scared when I saw the ghosts, but after seeing the mother and her two children and these foxes, I was just moved.
But this is very hard.
Don't you find it strange? The cause and effect, the mother and her two children, and the red fox family all appeared in the underworld copy, and they all brought their memories with them. If it is really just data exchange, it is too real, right
And didn’t the system permanently block some copies? If it was permanently blocked, the people inside should also be frozen, so why did they appear in this copy one by one
…Brothers and sisters, is there a possibility that these copies may not be just pieces of data, but… real existences
… ? Shit, what are you doing
The originally dense barrage of comments suddenly paused for a moment.
If so, what is this game about? What is it trying to do with us
I smell a strong conspiracy theory smell, so we have been in the midst of a huge lie from the very beginning
The discussion gradually began to deviate, and just as more and more comments were about to be sent out, the words on the screen suddenly cleared.
Then there is a one-minute long window period.
At the top of the screen, the bullet screen scroll bar from the official system started to rotate.
Official notice: After system detection, a Trojan program was found in the barrage system. The Trojan program is named [Sharp Blade]. The harm of [Sharp Blade] is to quietly invade the player's mind and change the player's logic and judgment of things. The system will start the cleaning mode below to completely remove the Trojan [Sharp Blade].
Three minutes later, the system announcement started rolling again.
Official notice: The Trojan [Blade] has been successfully removed. Because this removal caused a bad gaming experience for the players, the system will issue 100 mall points to each player as compensation. The mall points will be sent to the mailbox of each player, with a storage space of 30. Please check it carefully.
Official notice: I hope all players have a happy game.
After the scroll bar of the official notification disappeared, the barrage of comments reappeared on the screen in twos and threes.
Chirp chirp
Woof woof woof.
Meow meow meow.
Meah hehe meah hehe meah hehe.
… Antivirus software can not only detect and kill Trojan viruses, but also change the properties of species and promote species diversity
What nonsense, we just wanted to try out the barrage, but we didn’t expect the audience to be so cooperative.
So how do you feel now
My head is empty, as if I had a good sleep, and my heart is a little empty. So we were invaded by a Trojan horse just now? How terrible.
Do you remember what you thought after the Trojan horse invaded
Hiss, I don’t remember.
I don’t remember either.
If it is a Trojan horse, it should be something bad, right? Isn't it better to forget it
Is this really the case? Unfortunately, I have the habit of recording while I am doing the barrage, and although the content in the notebook is a bit strange and shocking, I seem to know something unbelievable.
What is the matter? Come out and listen.
No, I believe I am not the only one who has this habit. I just think that a spark can start a prairie fire, and it is absolutely possible to extinguish it with force after the awakening of thought. Now may not be the right time, but there will always be a day when the strong flame will burn away all hypocrisy and lies.
It's so profound, it feels very serious.
My friend, I just want to tell you that you are not fighting alone.

"This is the gap in space. When I was here two days ago, I did feel a strange and weird breath. I have a strong sense of breath. I can feel the horror of this breath, so I took the child and hid early."
Baili Xin followed the red fox to the cave entrance and went in the direction the red fox pointed.
On the red mountain wall, a small black crack can be vaguely seen.
The gap is as thin as a hair. If you look carefully, you can vaguely feel the distorted air around the gap.
Baili Xin: "What does it feel like?"
The red fox didn't think for two seconds, and replied seriously according to his memory: "Killing, death, darkness."
It sniffed. "It's strange. I can still feel a little bit of holiness."
"It's very inconsistent to have the Silk Sacred Saint mixed in. It's weird anyway."
Baili Xin looked towards Dijia, but found that Dijia was also looking at him intently.
Holy? Is it a saint
Dijia just said that the saint was missing, and the time can be matched.
This thought rolled through Baili Xin's mind, and his attention was focused on the gap in space again.
The red fox can come in through the gap, and the "saint" can go out through the gap. If one can come in and go out, then two can come in and go out.
If one extremely evil villain escapes, there will be a third one.
The escape of one "saint" might not be enough evidence. If this gap continues to be discovered and more and more villains escape, the underworld will probably be in chaos.
Dijia's brows also furrowed. He lowered his voice and said solemnly, "Red Fox, can you find any other gaps?"
Although Avici Hell is not under his complete control, it is closely related to the underworld, and the existence of these gaps is too dangerous.
Being suddenly called out, the red fox instantly shrank his neck, but still answered respectfully: "Yes, I can find it."
Emperor Jia glanced at Baili Xin and the red fox.
He was about to speak, but Baili Xin spoke before him: "The gap is important, you go and deal with it first, I'll go down first, you come down and find me later, okay, Dijia?"
Dijia pursed his lips, not very happy.
To be honest, he was worried about letting Baili Xin break into the prison on his own.
Baili Xin didn't expect to be able to immediately defeat Dijia: "In fact, I am still quite strong, and now the saint should have just left, there may be some clues that have not disappeared. If we go to the Eighteen Hells together first, these gaps are in danger of collapse, and the underworld will be shaky."
"And if we try to plug the gap first, the precious clues may disappear."
"I'm not as weak as you think," Baili Xin raised his arm, showing off his tight brachialis and little mouse, "I'm very strong. If you don't believe me, ask Red Fox."
The red fox nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, Lord Baili Xin is very powerful. His use of the magic whip is simply amazing."
Dijia sighed and said, "Okay, the token is with you. If you are in danger, you must call me immediately. I can hear you no matter where you are."
Baili Xin nodded vigorously: "Of course! I'm going to investigate a case, not to die. Don't waste time, hurry up and move."
Then, Baili Xin took out the portal and went straight in.
The portal disappeared, and Dijia looked down at the trembling red fox and said, "You should know me, right?"
The red fox had collapsed, "Greetings, Lord Yan Wang."
Dijia sneered: "Very good, it's good to know each other. Since you know me, you should also know what crime you have committed, right?"
The red fox leaned its head against its face, shrinking its neck and not daring to move. "I know, this sinful fox has entered the Avici Hell without permission. Please punish me, Lord Yama."
"My children are innocent. I beg you to forgive them."
Dijia: "You have trespassed into the Avici Hell, which is a serious crime. You have discovered a gap in space. If you can help me find all the gaps and help me fill them up, the merits and demerits will offset each other, and I will let you go."
The red fox stood at the entrance of the cave, looking up at the brilliant colorful crystals above her head. Although she was intimidated by the powerful pressure from the person in front of her, she still mustered up the courage to speak: "Where are my children and I going..."
Dijia: "Once the gap is filled, you will not be able to freely travel through the gap in Avici Hell."
The red fox looked regretful.
"But I will give you a pass. You can stay here, only on this floor, until your husband's sentence is completed."
"This hole has no impact on this floor, so you can continue to live here. But if you dare to enter the punishment area and try to do something you shouldn't do, I will punish you severely."
The red fox's tears flowed uncontrollably from its eyes. It kowtowed several times in gratitude and sobbed, "Thank you, Lord Yama, for your mercy."
"You are truly worthy of being Lord Baili Xin's man, and you are as kind as him."
"You two are a perfect match. You two are the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl, a match made in heaven, a match made in heaven, a match made in heaven."
"I want you to be together forever and grow old together!"
Emperor Ga stared at the red fox for two seconds: "..."
Then he silently took out a handful of stardust from his arms, sprinkled it in front of the red fox, and it turned into a pile of incense sticks.
"Take it." Under the inexplicable look of the red fox, Dijia said lightly, "It's the reward for running errands."
Sly fox!
If I could, I would say a few more words to you!
Is this enough
The red fox widened his eyes: "Lord Yan Wang is so generous! Lord Baili Xin will be very happy after marriage!"
"Only Lord Baili Xin can enjoy this kind of treatment. You two are the zither and the harp, and together you make a perfect harmony, perfect!"
Emperor Ga: “…”
Huh, that sounds really nice.
The red fox hesitated for two seconds, "Lord Yan Wang, I have the Eighteen Styles of Dragon X here, I wonder if you are interested?"
Dijia held out his hand with a straight face: "Obscene words, take them out and confiscate them."
If you have this thing, you should take it out earlier.
