Shennong Sequence

Chapter 26 Four-tailed Heavenly Fox, young man, you still can’t keep your cool!

The little yellow-haired fox looked at Old Man Sun, and then asked Zhao Yun:
"Man, is this the adult in your family? He's so old..."

When Old Man Sun saw the little fox speaking human language, he quickly turned his head and looked at the mountain where Zhao Yun had just gone.

"Zhao Yun, this little fox, did you bring it down from the mountain?"

Zhao Yun saw with his own eyes that old man Sun's expression gradually changed from a happy one to a look of surprise, as if he had seen a ghost.

I dared not to hide it immediately:
"Well, the little fox said that everything on the mountain belongs to it. I am not sure whether it is true or not, so I will go down the mountain with it so that you can see for yourself."

"At the same time, the little fox also said that if I roasted a hare for it and bought it a roasted chicken in the city, it would forgive us for the theft."

"What do you think we should do about this?"

Zhao Yun explained the cause of the matter clearly.

Then he threw the problem to Old Man Sun, and let him worry about it.

Old Man Sun nodded and said, "Indeed, the Little Cloud Hill to the west was indeed given to a four-tailed celestial fox by Li Sinong to live in. What the little fox said is true."

Seeing that Old Man Sun approved, the little fox jumped out of Zhao Yun's arms, then stood firmly on the ground, looked up at Old Man Sun, and said, "Then you owe me a roasted rabbit and a roasted chicken from the city."

When the little fox finished speaking, he sucked the saliva from the corner of his mouth.

I just don’t know, do you want to eat more roast rabbit or roast chicken?
In addition, Zhao Yun looked at Old Man Sun's face and saw another change.

This time, he was not as surprised as before, but instead was very curious. He seemed to be hesitant to speak, and a little gossipy was aroused... ?
When Zhao Yun saw this, he became a little curious.

First, the relationship between this little yellow-haired fox and the four-tailed celestial fox.

Second, what kind of mysterious origin did the four-tailed fox have? How could it make Li Sinong send it to the mountain to offer it as a sacrifice? And how could it also make the usually calm and composed old man Sun show all kinds of complicated expressions...

Old Man Sun would naturally not evade the request made by the little fox. After all, it was Zhao Yun who agreed to the request, and then responded to the little fox:
"Since Zhao Yun has agreed to your request, we will give you a portion when we roast the rabbit next time.

What about the roast chicken?

I'll bring it to you next time we bring the horses over, what do you think?"

"Okay then. You mustn't forget this."

Upon hearing this, the little fox nodded obediently and said, its adorable appearance made people want to reach out and stroke it.

"I will definitely not forget it. You wait here first, and we will go and get the rabbit."

Afterwards, Old Man Sun called Zhao Yun to go and deal with the three rabbits together, while the little fox waited quietly and obediently there.

However, its lively eyes looked around from time to time, as if looking forward to the upcoming delicious food.

Or maybe he was observing the world outside the mountain...

Old man Sun pulled Zhao Yun to the clear stream below the grass slope, and personally helped to skillfully skin the rabbit and clean the internal organs... His technique was so skillful, as if he had done it countless times.

The more Zhao Yun watched, the more he found it strange, especially this lazy old man, who didn't even ask him to help clean the rabbit this time!

It is rare.

"Old man, does this little fox have any other origin? You are smiling so hard that you can't close your mouth. Could it be that my meeting with it is a great blessing?"

The corners of Old Man Sun's mouth curled up.

Young man, you still can’t keep your cool!

However, he started working and didn't say anything, just to get Zhao Yun to speak first!

Now the time has come, and Old Man Sun said:
"You don't understand this, right? Li Sinong in our garrison has the ability to see through the heavens and the earth, and has great magical powers, but he prefers to travel around..."

"Of course, the mountain we are touring here is the small cloud hill you can see in front of you."

"Originally, there was only one four-tailed celestial fox in that mountain, but now there is a second one. Think carefully about the reason..."

Zhao Yun was catching the last rabbit and was using Old Man Sun's knife to clean it up, but suddenly he stopped!
Old Man Sun's words were getting more mysterious! "Are you saying that this little yellow-haired fox is inextricably linked to Lord Li Sinong?"

"Haha, just speculation!

Besides, I see that little fox is quite clinging to you, so you can beat around the bush and ask the little fox what the big fox in the mountains is called.
In this way, perhaps the truth will be revealed!"

I grass!

Zhao Yun shouted in his heart.

He also instantly understood the reason for Old Man Sun's strange expression before.

Old man Sun, you really have a big gossipy heart!

In other words, Lord Li Sinong secretly had a baby with the four-tailed celestial fox, and then kept it from everyone, leaving them all in the dark.

Now it was accidentally discovered...

Isn’t this just a very big melon?

Zhao Yun suddenly felt that taking this little yellow-haired fox out of the mountain was like taking on a hot potato!

After the two of them had dealt with the three hares by the stream.

Zhao Yun carefully preserved three soft and smooth rabbit skins.

Yanshan County is located in the northern border state, and the winters are extremely harsh. This rabbit skin is just right for me to take back and let my mother sew it into rabbit fur gloves, or warm and comfortable shoe covers. Wearing them will surely add some warmth and resist the biting cold.

Then, Zhao Yun returned to the grass slope with Old Man Sun.

The little yellow fox rolled happily in the grass, catching butterflies...

Very happy and joyful.

In the distance, Butcher Liu was carrying a heavy pile of firewood and approaching slowly and heavily.

Zhao Yun put down the washed rabbit, walked forward to meet it and lent a hand. The two worked together to pile the firewood on the small slope of the grass.

In addition, the rabbit has been dissected and the firewood for roasting the rabbit has been prepared, the only thing missing is fire!
Zhao Yun and Liu the Butcher did not have flint.
In addition, it was Old Man Sun who proposed the matter of roasting rabbits, so Zhao Yun and Butcher Liu both turned their attention to Old Man Sun.

"Hey, why are you looking at me?"

"Well, no fire!"

"piece of cake."

Old man Sun calmly picked up some sturdy firewood and put them in the shape of a "well".

The old fingers gently rotated and rubbed in the air, and a cluster of burning flames instantly bloomed between his hands.

Hot and dazzling.

Then Old Man Sun snapped his fingers, and the flame fell accurately on the pile of firewood that had just been built, and the fire instantly rose up with great rage.

This spell of creating a fireball with bare hands left Zhao Yun and Liu the Butcher dumbfounded.

After all, this was the first time Zhao Yun had seen magic being performed...

"What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and roast the rabbit!"

Zhao Yun had regained consciousness after a short moment of absence, but seeing that Butcher Liu was still as dumbfounded as a fool, he thought it was only natural for a country boy like him to be in the same state, so he continued to pretend to be in a daze for a moment, and was immediately severely reprimanded by Old Man Sun.

But being scolded didn't matter. Zhao Yun was looking at Old Man Sun with full expectation at this moment. He clearly remembered that Old Man Sun wanted to teach him new secrets before.
