Ye Xingtong shook his head lightly: "I'm not the kind of person who cares about courtesy. My uncle and mother-in-law can just call me Xingtong."
The muddy tears in the old man's eyes fell down, and he said tremblingly: "The princess understands the general situation and is considerate of us common people. It is a blessing for the common people, but we must not call the princess by her honorable name."
The old woman also responded: "Yes, princess, it is the greatest blessing for us people that you can come in person."
Turning to the old man, he said: "Honey, the princess is here today. We have to make something delicious, so let's kill this hare!"
The old man replied happily: "Hey... yes, I will go right away..."
… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …
As dawn gradually breaks in the morning, the light blue sky is still studded with a few remaining stars, and the earth is hazy, as if shrouded in silver-gray gauze.
The branches in the distance swayed slightly, making a "rustling" sound, and there were a few small pearls on the green leaves of the grass.
At this moment, no one had gotten up yet. After Ye Xingtong got up, he placed some broken silver on the broken table in the center of the old woman's house.
She stayed here for one night as a way of repaying their family's kindness.
Picking up the sleeping puppy, he carefully closed the fence gate.
He turned around and walked away without hesitation.
She had to go to town now.
Find out what's going on
The truth of the matter was found out, and the young man and woman who were murdered were found innocent.
Even if she wants to go to Li Kingdom, she must pass through Huaiyin County.
After this long journey, Ye Xingtong finally realized how hard walking is.
When they reached the town, Ye Xingtong felt like he was almost exhausted.
Both thighs were as heavy as stones.
It seems that even taking a step is difficult.
On the way, she met a middle-aged couple pulling an ox cart to sell vegetables in the county town.
The middle-aged couple was very kind-hearted and took her for a while.
If not, she would have died of exhaustion.
I found a random inn, went to bed, and fell asleep.
She held what she thought was a puppy tightly in her arms when she fell asleep.
A red light flashed slightly in the puppy's eyes.
Gradually a red mist rose around.
Ye Xingtong suddenly turned around and completely pressed the puppy under his body.
The puppy's red face became even redder with anger.
It had injuries on its body originally, although the wounds are mostly healed now.
But it knows that its vitality is completely damaged, and it may not take hundreds of years to recover.
Even turning into human form is difficult now.
This vicious woman actually pressed its entire small and thin body under her own body.
He struggled to get up, but Ye Xingtong's heavy body could not be easily moved by his thin body.
After struggling for a long time, he was so tired that he was sweating profusely, and the puppy gave up the struggle.
He had no choice but to speak to her in human language: "Hey, Ye Xingtong, get up. Do you hear me? You're on top of me."
Ye Xingtong seemed to be in a daze as if she heard a nice voice that kept ringing in her ears. She couldn't help but frowned and muttered: "Why are you making so much noise? Don't disturb this princess's sleep."
The puppy was even more furious, and the coquettish red color flowing out of its eyes almost dazzled people's eyes.
He glanced at Ye Xingtong who was motionless in a complex manner, and opened his mouth to bite Ye Xingtong's neck. When he was close to his mouth, Ye Xingtong turned over in time to avoid its attack.
Ye Xingtong didn't know that because of her dishonesty in sleeping, she almost died from the mouth of the puppy she saved.
In fact, what she rescued was not a puppy, but a nine-tailed fox demon who had been practicing for six thousand years.
It's just that the fox demon can't maintain his human form due to serious injuries. He can't even maintain his own basic fox prototype.
So he looked very small, as if he was only a few months old. He was already pretty and cute. Ye Xingtong had never seen what a real fox looked like, so he mistakenly thought he was a cute little one. dog.
In this world, fox is a rare animal.
Some hunters in the deep forests have never seen such one in their lives.
Ordinary foxes are rare, let alone nine-tailed fox monsters.
The little fox was relieved for a moment, like a mouse seeing a cat, and jumped onto the soft couch beside him as fast as lightning.
I found a comfortable position, closed my eyes, lay down like a human being, and continued to sleep.
…
Late at night fell, and the moon in the sky seemed to become a little blurry.
The dim silver spilled on the ground through the window.
A few sparse stars in the sky blinked boredly in the sky, seeming very tired.
The howling strong wind blew past the window, making a harsh sound.
If you listen carefully, it seems that there are also the cries of men and women.
It makes people feel scared from the inside when they hear it.
The men at midnight were beating gongs and shouting as they walked past the door of the inn.
Suddenly a dark shadow floated in front of his eyes, and the watcher thought he had seen it wrong.
He closed his eyes and opened them again, and a seductively dressed woman with disheveled hair landed next to him.
The smile on her face was evil and seductive, as if she were the female ghost who seduces souls at night.
The watchman shouted: "Ghost!"
He dropped the lanterns and gongs and drums in his hands and ran away in fear.
After the watcher left, the woman landed gently, looking with a smile on her lips in the direction in which the watcher hurried away.
He said calmly to the empty air behind him: "Let's go!"
Soon, a young man chuckled from behind the woman: "Monster, look at how scared I am, your charm seems to have faded away!"
In an instant, the man appeared.
The woman who was called Enchantress turned around gracefully, her beautiful and slender figure drew a perfect arc, and said with a seductive smile: "If you don't hurry up, you will delay the business."
The man stopped talking and flew into an inn lightly.
The woman flew in another direction and blinked as if neither of them had appeared.
The sleeping little fox suddenly opened his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his cold eyes.
It smells like a monster.
After glancing at Ye Xingtong who was sleeping soundly, the little fox suddenly stood up and jumped to Ye Xingtong's side, then lay down not too far away from her and went back to sleep.
A faint red light once again surrounded one person and one fox.
The black figure outside flew around the window, and finally seemed to find its direction and flew towards a room on the first floor.
… … … …
In the morning, a piercing scream woke Ye Xingtong up.
Ye Xingtong sat up lazily and yawned loudly.
I seemed to have slept well yesterday.
