Chapter 817 Why did you actually take your clothes off?
Tan Wenjie could not detect any demonic aura from the other party, which was enough to show that the other party had some background, or at least had obtained some kind of immortal resources.
The old fox spirit with the pointed snout and monkey-like face looked at Tan Wenjie. After realizing that he had no spiritual energy at all, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself that he was just a charlatan wandering Taoist priest.
My family is different; they've eaten elixirs of immortality and have shed their beastly forms and bones.
Although he hadn't learned any magic, he could already exhale a breath of air and stumble upwards for several feet, or float for more than ten feet, and his strength was also greater than that of ordinary people.
"Fellow Daoist," the old woman greeted with a smile, "what brings you here?"
"I dare not presume to offer my instruction. May I ask which sacred mountain you cultivate on?"
“This…that…the White Cloud Cave on Yunmeng Mountain.”
The old fox spoke haltingly, her words revealing a hint of unease.
"Baiyun Cave? Never heard of it." Tan Wenjie shook his head, but he knew the answer in his heart.
It really was those three fox spirits who stole the elixir of immortality.
If you want to get the "Wish-Fulfilling Book" yourself, you have to go through them.
The old fox thought to herself with disdain: "As expected of a quack with no real skills, he hasn't even heard of the legendary White Cloud Cave."
Not only do they look down on someone in their hearts, but they also refuse to pretend on the surface, holding their chins high.
"And where are you cultivating, fellow Daoist?"
"I once practiced at Changsheng Temple, and then entered the secular world to gain experience." Tan Wenjie lowered his eyelids, and just as the old fox was about to show an indifferent expression, he added, "Who would have thought that one could earn so much in the secular world."
Earn a lot?!
The old fox's droopy eyes suddenly widened.
"Hehehe, fellow Daoist~~"
She stepped closer and saw Tan Wenjie take a half step back. Just as she was about to curse him for being ungrateful and not knowing who the real fairy was, a shout suddenly came from the side.
"Mother~"
The voice was soft and melodious, like honey.
"Hiss—" A passerby gasped for breath.
Some people exclaimed, "What a beautiful girl!"
Some women muttered in low voices, "She looks like a vixen."
Tan Wenjie turned his head and saw a girl in a pink dress with fox-like eyes. She had a slender waist and a graceful figure. Her brows showed signs of illness and sorrow. Any normal man would probably be captivated by her sickly beauty and then go bankrupt, or even be willing to cut out his heart and stomach for her.
Her expression as she looked at Tan Wenjie was shy and bashful, and her eyes seemed to beckon to one's heart.
Having long been accustomed to fox spirits, Tan Wenjie was not bothered by this. Not to mention that this was just an ordinary fox spirit, even the legendary Jade-Faced Fox Spirit was nothing in front of him.
Restlessness stems from a lack of knowledge, and lust stems from not having enough to eat.
The necessary respect must still be shown. The infatuation on his face is to maintain his persona, while his inability to resist reaching out to embrace the beauty is a further demonstration of his acting skills.
"Stop being so horny!" the old fox woman whispered to her daughter, raising her hand to gently pat the back of her hand.
The old fox woman raised her eyelids and saw Tan Wenjie staring blankly at her daughter. The way he looked so lost in thought made her laugh. It turned out that he was just another ordinary person who was obsessed with physical appearance.
It just so happens that they are new to human form and don't quite understand the ways to make money yet. It would be better for them to get closer to the fox spirit in front of them, extract the secrets from it, and then make their move.
She already had a plan in mind. She placed the two packets of medicine into her daughter's hands, then gave her a subtle wink. The fox-eyed girl understood, carried the medicine, and gracefully approached Tan Wenjie, saying in a soft voice, "Master, this medicine cures all ailments~"
Tan Wenjie remained calm, reached out and grabbed the other person's small hand, squeezed it, and then put the medicine in his arms.
"I want it all!"
He took out a gold ingot from his sleeve and gently placed it in the fox-eyed girl's hand.
Feeling the heavy weight in her hands, the girl's eyes lit up.
Even the old woman followed suit, exclaiming "Oh dear!" and quickly snatched the gold ingot, taking a bite before putting it in her bosom.
At the same time, she was certain in her heart that what Tan Wenjie had said earlier was absolutely true, and that an ordinary person could not possibly produce such a large gold ingot.
The old fox gave the girl a look, and the girl understood, her arm intentionally or unintentionally touching the back of Tan Wenjie's hand.
"Master, to tell you the truth, my family and I have nowhere to stay. We are all alone and helpless. If we could find shelter from the wind and rain, I would gladly give myself to you."
Tan Wenjie: "..."
It's almost as if he's pointing his finger at himself and saying that he's the lucky one.
Moreover, the vixen's tricks are too clumsy. If you can't use your beauty to your advantage and are too stingy, it's better not to use it at all. How can you expect anyone to fall for such a petty trick?
But in order to achieve his goal, Tan Wenjie could only force himself to pretend to be infatuated with the other party, and said urgently, "I have a place to stay, but... but..."
"But what?" X2
They wouldn't have been so curious if it weren't for this sudden remark.
"But my place is a mortuary, full of corpses, it's really not suitable for a young lady to stay there."
"It was just a corpse. We thought it was something else." The two fox spirits breathed a sigh of relief.
They have killed countless people.
When they met Tan Wenjie's strange gaze, they realized that their words had been ambiguous.
“Fellow Daoist, we are all cultivators,” the fox spirit old woman said with a smile. “How could we care about a few corpses? We are deeply grateful that you have given us a place to live.”
The fox spirit girl nodded in agreement, indicating that she was definitely not an ungrateful person.
"In that case, I'm afraid you and this young lady will have to stay at the mortuary with me," Tan Wenjie said apologetically.
Because Tan Wenjie interrupted, the fairy's medicine-selling session came to an end. After tidying up briefly, the three headed towards the city.
However, Tan Wenjie was very curious about where the third fox spirit had gone, as he had not noticed her whereabouts along the way.
Pushing open the large wooden door of the mortuary, the two fox spirits were immediately startled by the spiritual energy blowing in their faces.
In a daze, they even mistook it for the White Cloud Cave.
But when you blink again and look at what's in front of you, it's just an ordinary mortuary. There are two coffins in the courtyard, and looking into the house, there are more than a dozen coffins. There are probably already people living inside.
"There are still rooms available here. Please come this way."
Tan Wenjie consistently portrays himself as a passionate and lecherous Taoist priest, readily accepting all the perks offered by the fox-like girl.
Just treat it as petting a fox.
As evening approached, the rosy clouds resembled a spread-out carpet hanging on the western horizon.
The old fox woman and the young fox girl got together.
"Does that Taoist priest really have any way to get rich? I think we should try to find an official." The old fox woman weighed the gold in her hand. "Officials all know how to exploit the people, and they have a lot of power. They can kill and set fires."
"I think he's not bad either, he's handsome." The fox girl combed her hair over her shoulders, a charming smile on her face.
My sister loves to dress up.
She transformed into a beautiful woman, convinced that only a handsome man was worthy of her, and that there was probably no man in the world more handsome than Tan Wenjie.
"Then so be it. Go and find out tonight how he makes money," said the old fox woman.
Fox spirits have no concept of chastity; at most, they treat living people as playthings, and eat them whole when they're done playing with them.
That's what I think.
During the conversation, they suddenly heard a "squeak, squeak, squeak" sound. The two fox spirits turned to look at the mouse hole in the room and saw that the hole was getting bigger and bigger. With a burst of dust, a blue fox head emerged from it.
The fox crawled out and rolled around several times, squeaking at the two of them. Looking closer, the fox only had three legs; it was missing a hind leg.
"Speak like a human!" the old fox woman said impatiently.
Amidst a pungent, foul stench, the green fox transformed into human form—a man in a green robe with somewhat vacant eyes, and a cripple with only one leg.
"How did you end up here?" the kidnapper asked. "This place looks too shabby. Is there enough food for us?"
"Eat, eat, eat! All you ever think about is eating!" The old fox woman raised her hand in annoyance, about to poke the cane-claw's forehead.
But then the fox-girl beside her said with a smile, "Don't let the poverty of this place fool you, that Taoist priest is no ordinary person; his house is full of gold ingots."
"Oh?" The cunning young man's eyes darted around. "We're not going to steal all the money?"
"Don't steal it." X2
"Huh?" The kidnapper fox-like youth asked, puzzled.
The fox girl said, "Everything in this world has cause and effect. Stealing money incurs too much karma, and you might even be punished by heaven. Isn't it too much of a loss to suffer for money?"
"Oh..." The cunning young man nodded, then asked doubtfully, "Would that make me seem like I'm at a disadvantage?"
"..."X2
If we had known this idiot didn't understand anything, we would have wasted our breath talking.
"When will we get our hands on the money?"
"I'll go tonight," the fox girl said confidently, slowly closing her five fingers and squinting her fox eyes.
No one can escape the palm of their own hand.
After it was completely dark outside, the fox girl got up and left.
Only the old woman and the cripple remained in the room.
"All she thinks about is that handsome Taoist priest," the old fox woman said to the kidnapper. "Go and keep a close eye on her. If there's a real chance to make money, we can't let her keep it to herself."
Compared to the pretty and clever fox girl, the kidnapper fox is straightforward and obedient. Apart from being a little less capable, he is basically fine.
"Hey!"
The kidnapper transformed into a green fox on the spot and hopped out the door on three legs.
He followed the scent on the ground and made his way to the room where Tan Wenjie was.
The candlelight cast their shadows onto the window.
Then they heard the fox-girl's charming voice from inside: "My lord, you said you had a way to get rich, is that true?"
“Of course.” The man’s shadow opened his arms, and the green fox hiding in the courtyard saw the woman’s shadow throw herself into his arms.
He didn't feel anything was wrong; he just kept his mission in mind and was afraid of missing any crucial information.
After a moment of contemplation, the man inside said, "However..."
"but?"
"However, your way of making money is too stupid. Why sell elixirs to those poor people? They are poor and stingy. Even if you break your back, how much money can you make?"
"Then what should we do?"
"Of course, we'll make money off whoever has the most money!"
"You mean... an official?"
“If we, as cultivators, reveal even a little bit, it will be enough for those high-ranking officials and nobles to fawn over us, and money will be handed to us with ease.”
"Has my lord amassed any wealth?"
"Some of them, I hid under those coffins." The voice in the room was hushed, and the green fox had to lean forward to barely hear some key information.
"So it was under the coffin." The green fox suddenly realized. He turned around to go back and tell the old fox woman, but then stopped.
Since they were the first to know the news, why didn't they just take all the money?
Otherwise, if the other party does nothing and then wants to split the money with you, you'll feel like you're getting the short end of the stick.
With that in mind, the green fox decided to take the initiative.
Under the moonlight, the three-legged fox hopped and skipped into the room where the coffins were kept in the mortuary.
"They're all under the coffins."
The green fox transformed back into human form and reached out to push open the coffin lid, only to find it as heavy as iron. Despite pushing with one foot and gritting its teeth several times, it did not budge.
"Yaaaa!" The fox gritted its teeth and strained again, but finally collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
Seeing my precious treasure right in front of me but unable to take it away makes me feel uneasy.
He turned and hopped to the door, intending to go back and find someone to steal the money, when he heard the coffin behind him creak and move. He suddenly turned around to look back.
Just then, a ray of moonlight shone into the coffin from the doorway.
The air is getting colder and colder.
"boom!"
The coffin lid was overturned by a tremendous force, spun several times in the air, and then crashed to the ground with a "thud".
A pair of stiff, withered arms rose from the coffin.
"A ghost! A ghost! A zombie has come back to life!" The kidnapper fox spirit was so frightened that her hat jumped up, spun twice in the air, and then landed back on her forehead.
He shuddered from head to toe.
The zombie stood stiffly upright, its mouth open, spewing out a thick, foul stench of death.
"Boom!"
Upon landing, the floor tiles dented slightly.
The fox spirit used both hands and feet to escape. He had lost a leg and could only hop forward. Coincidentally, the zombie could also only hop forward because his body was stiff.
Under the moonlight, one hopped forward to escape, while the other hopped after it.
Chaos erupted inside the mortuary.
Neither of them was fast enough. The fox spirit would hop forward one step, and then be chased by another. She even stepped on his robe because she wasn't paying attention, and with a cry of "Ouch!" she fell flat on her face and landed on the ground.
The zombie lunged at him to bite him, but its weight slammed down first, and the fox spirit was immediately immobilized.
Inside the room, Tan Wenjie pushed away the vixen-like girl who was trying to get closer to unbutton his clothes.
Everyone's just going through the motions, why did you actually take your clothes off?
"Lang Jun?"
There seems to be a thief outside.
The fox spirit girl knew immediately that it must be that fool, and she hurriedly said, "I don't think so, I didn't hear anything."
"You have a problem with your ears."
"..."
She liked how direct this man was.
Although his words are harsh and can be offensive, seeing his handsome face makes it impossible to stay angry.
"Hey, wait a minute, I'll go with you." (End of Chapter)
