Strange Stories

Chapter 532: Big Brother's Luck Is Really Bad

The fox was quite clever. It tilted its head, rolled its eyes, and retorted:
"Xu Yi and Pu Mei are becoming more and more powerful. Recently, I... Recently, you gave Pu Mei the Dragon Scale Flying Blade, taught Xu Yi the method of Gang Qi, and found things for them to do. Don't worry about them."

When Lin Jue heard this, he smiled.

It turns out it heard it!

When it was playing crazily, it ignored us and I thought its ears would close automatically at that time.

"But what about the fairy tree?"

"There are Wan Gong guarding it!"

"What about the storage room?"

"There are Wan Gong guarding it!"

"Um……"

Lin Jue pretended to be troubled and thought deeply before saying, "No, I still trust you the most."

The fox's expression couldn't help but become serious.

It seemed as if the Taoist's expression and tone gradually made it realize that it was indeed indispensable and irreplaceable, and that it was the only one who could do this.

But the next moment, it opened its mouth and raised its head, as if yawning, or laughing like a human:

"You lose again!"

"Alas, you are still amazing." The Taoist smiled and said, "It's because that Yuanqiu Mountain was once the Taoist temple of the previous Tianweng, and that Tianweng had fought with Empress Yaohua. Fuyao looks very similar to Empress Yaohua. At present, it is not certain whether that Tianweng is still in Yuanqiu Mountain, so I am afraid that it will be dangerous to take you there."

"Then can't a fox turn into a cat?"

"I'm afraid not."

"What about turning into a crow?"

"I'm afraid that won't work either."

"Where's the dog?"

"No."

"Then the donkey, mouse and rabbit must be in trouble too." The fox thought for a moment and tilted his head to ask, "What if they become very small and hide?"

"Probably not."

"Then the fox can only be the supervisor!" The fox said seriously, "The fox will make them study and work hard!"

"That's right! You've gone through the hardships of learning to read and write before. Now you're letting them go through the hardships you went through before. It's like sharing the hardships you went through before with them, and it's turning into happiness!"

"That's right!"

The man and the fox looked at each other.

"Remember to stay in the mountains and don't go out easily. If there are gods and spirits looking for trouble, don't conflict with them. First tell them that this is my temple, and then tell them that you are a good demon, and you have more merits in exorcising demons than they do. If you still can't avoid it, don't fight. Just leave. Go to the palace to find Luo Gong, come to me, or go back to Yishan. It's all fine."

Lin Jue thought rationally that no matter how overbearing the Purple Emperor was, no matter how eager he was to exorcise demons, he would not cause trouble for himself and Fuyao at this time when he had just ascended to the throne.

At least it will be pushed back many years.

It is very likely that Empress Yaohua was implicated first, and then Empress Yaohua would implicate Fuyao. At the very least, if he was planning to take action against Empress Yaohua, he would probably start from here.

But just to be on the safe side, I'd like to give you a reminder.

It's always better to be cautious with things like this.

The fox jumped lightly on the magnolia tree, which was a mixture of red and pink, with only flowers but no leaves. It then turned into a breeze and flew back to the mountains.

"Is it because Fuyao has grown up, or is it because senior brother's ability has declined a little? Now he can't even trick Fuyao." The younger sister said standing aside.

"Fuyao is a fox. She is born to be able to see through people's hearts and is naturally good at deceiving people. Naturally, I can't deceive her." Lin Jue said as he waved his sleeves, "This set of tables and chairs should stay here. If they are not blown away by the wind, maybe I can come here again to make tea and appreciate the flowers someday."

"I heard that magnolia petals can be eaten?"

"Yes, it is eaten in batter and fried."

"Let's go, brother."

The two of them went back to pack up and then set off for Yuanqiu Mountain.

Originally he had planned to go up on a cloud, as that was the fastest way. However, just as he was about to leave, he met three little demon hunters coming back from the forest below. They were riding on paper donkeys, carrying long swords on their backs, and walking on the road that Ziyun had almost finished repairing. They were talking and laughing, showing their youthful cheerfulness.

The two men smiled at each other, then summoned their paper donkeys, wore long swords, and walked away leisurely along the mountain road.

……

There was dew on the grass by the roadside, and the donkey kicked up some yellow sand as it walked past.

The whole world is full of vitality in spring. All you can see are the new green grass leaves, reflecting the sunshine, stepping on the morning dew, the weather is neither cold nor hot, and people's mood becomes very good. Even this road, it is hard to tell whether you have walked on it in the past or not. You just feel like you have returned to the past, picking up the footprints left on the Huizhou official road.

Feilai Mountain is located beside a winding river.

The river bends into a horseshoe shape, and it falls right in the middle of the bend. The spring water is greener than the sky, and the banks are covered with reeds and bamboo forests. The reeds bend, and the bamboo forests also bend, all reflected in the green water.

There are bamboo rafts upstream of the river and covered boats passing by.

"Let me tell you! This mountain is Feilai Mountain. It suddenly flew here when the previous dynasty was about to end. An official who knows the situation came to see it and said that it used to be in the southwest, thousands of miles away from here! It is said that a mountain moving without reason and without sound is a sign of the demise of a dynasty. Not many years later, the previous dynasty fell!"

A boatman was paddling on the water and said to a few men in their 50s and 60s dressed as scholars in the cabin:

"Look at all those people crossing the river on bamboo rafts. They are all here to see it!"

"There are Huizhou people among us, how could we not know about this?" A scholar said with a smile, pointing at another man next to him, "Besides, Mr. Tang loved these strange stories when he was young. He has been to Feilai Mountain several times! Hahaha!"

There was another scholar named Tang, who stroked his beard and smiled humbly.

The boat quickly moved across the water, the green waves parted layer by layer, the shadows of bamboo and reeds swayed, and two people riding donkeys on the shore were revealed.

The donkey stopped obediently, and the two looked at Feilai Mountain on the opposite bank. The shadow of the mountain was also reflected in the clear water.

There are seven or eight people on this bank, and seven or eight people on the other bank. There is a bamboo raft on the water. Some people on that bank are waiting to come over, and some people on this bank are waiting to go over. They probably all want to go to Feilai Mountain to see this rare and mysterious thing.

The river bank is relatively deserted, with only a few families hiding about two miles to the left of Feilai Mountain. There are no families living on either the top or bottom of Feilai Mountain.

However, on the other side of the river, half a mile from the foot of the mountain, there was another very small thatched cottage, and it was unclear whether it was a residential house or not.

"I heard that the locals are somewhat afraid of it, and they are afraid that it will move away again one day, so they dare not cultivate fields on it, let alone build houses. They even dare not get too close to it, saying that it might move away." Lin Jue said while riding on a donkey, "This may also be related to the wonderful legends about it that are heard from time to time in the local area."

"Take the raft?"

The junior sister took out a few copper coins from her bosom and looked at her immortal senior brother who had no money.

The senior brother nodded.

The two of them sat on the raft to the center of the water and admired the sky and clouds reflected in the water.

The owner of the raft said to them:
"That little house? It was built only last year. I don't know where the person who built it came from. He is so brave. Isn't he afraid that he will wake up one day and find himself in the southwest? He must be crazy about finding immortals!"

"Is Feilai Mountain really so magical?"

"How can you fool people? Not to mention that it flew here from somewhere. I was still a child at that time and didn't know it. But since it came here, people who came from all over the place to see it have encountered strange things and seen gods."

"Have you had any recently?"

"It happened last month! He also said he saw a lot of giant snakes in there, as big as dragons!"

"..."

As he was telling the story, the bamboo raft slowly reached the other side.

Lin Jue looked into the distance, and his junior sister looked at the small house. After a moment, the two switched their gazes again.

"Ok?"

Lin Jue suddenly felt something was wrong.

The two men rode forward on donkeys.

There is a road on the shore, which is often walked by tourists and leads almost directly to Feilai Mountain. The cottage is on the left side of the road, some distance away from the road, and there is a path leading to it in the middle.

When we left the popular mountain trail and walked onto the small path that led only to the cottage, we could see fields on both sides, all right next to the path. They were neatly cultivated in square shapes and very regular patterns. Vegetables common in Huizhou at this time of year were planted in them, as well as wheat, whose seedlings had just been planted.

The junior sister also began to feel that something was wrong.

A black greyhound was lying in front of the house.

Puffs of green smoke came out of the house.

Seeing the two people coming, the greyhound stood up immediately and stared at them with a puzzled look.

At this time, the two of them looked at each other.

"Don't you recognize us?"

"Come here, Hei!"

The greyhound then remembered and ran over immediately.

Then there was a creak and the door opened.

Standing at the door was a middle-aged Taoist priest wearing a Taoist robe with his sleeves and trouser legs rolled up. With his honest and weathered face, he looked like an old farmer.

It’s the eldest brother!

Although Lin Jue was a little surprised, he didn't find it strange after thinking about it carefully.

Last year, when Lin Jue was on Fuqiu Peak, he told his senior brother about the relationship between Feilai Mountain and Yuanqiu Mountain, and mentioned that there might be a phoenix on Yuanqiu Mountain. Lin Jue was looking for Feng Yu for the purpose of refining pills. The senior brother must have thought of this and happened to have the time, so he came here early.

"Big Brother!" the little sister asked, "Why are you here?"

"I have nothing to do and I'm just sitting here trying my luck." The eldest brother said truthfully, "Anyway, this place is not far from Yishan. If you want to go back, you can go back anytime."

"Senior brother has planted so many vegetables and grains!" The little sister turned her head and looked around.

"We have nothing to do anyway, and we need to eat here, so we might as well grow some ourselves." The eldest brother said, "If we grow something ourselves, it will be more delicious."

"Brother, you never forget your hoe no matter where you are."

"Ugh……"

"So how's your luck, brother?"

"I don't think so." The eldest brother shook his head. "I have lived here for a year. Although I go back every ten days or half a month, I am here most of the time and have never seen it show any strangeness. But I am sure it is strange."

"How to say?"

"Last month I went back to Yishan to pay homage to my master. I stayed there for a day. That night, someone happened to be out at night and mistakenly entered Yuanqiu Mountain." The eldest brother said, "At first I thought he made it up, and the so-called 'big snake' was also based on the legends of the past. But when I went to visit him, I found a leaf in his clothes. It was very spiritual, and it might not grow in the depths of Yishan."

The younger sister was stunned after hearing this and turned to look at the younger brother. She wanted to exchange glances with the younger brother and then tease the older brother, but she saw that the younger brother was concentrating on playing with the dog.

Her expression froze, and she could only say to herself:

"It seems that Senior Brother has no chance with it."

The younger brother was still concentrating on playing with the dog, having so much fun that he seemed not to hear them talking.

"You look exactly like your mother!
"If you don't recognize me next time, I'll turn you into a rat!"

The thin dog was not experienced enough to understand at all. It just kept jumping around and trying to grab the branch in his hand.

……

Asking for the guaranteed monthly ticket at the beginning of the month!

Bowing and exposing breasts!
